Well there wont really be a team (mine anyways) working on this. It will be more like a community project. Anything a user wants to add/modify will be included into the rom. Kind of like the Smoothest rom. Any and all contributors will be listed in the OP along with there work.

Still sounds like a team to me...lol

Post that issssh! LoL Thanks for the rom. I'm looking into why my Jawbone blutooth isn't connecting to any of these KK roms, even AOSP. I tried on my friends Note 2 on T-Mobile earlier at work and he's on 4.3 still & no go. I guess it's something on my end...maybe needs an update *shrug*

4.4.2.PORT.v1.8-S5FEAT-R3Ds for Sprint

Okay I will make a new OP for the 4.4.2.PORT.v1.8-S5FEAT-R3Ds real soon. It will be a completely different rom from this one. The S5FEAT will be a direct port of someone else’s work (verizon note 2) and will not have anything that the original ROM does not have. So please dont ask to have anything added or changed.

4.4.2 Community Rom

The Community Rom will be its own rom with everything done by Sprint note 2 users. It will be created using original work. It will have N3 and S5 features but they will be done from scratch using stock N3 and S5 roms. Chaz has offered to them the work so you know it will look cool.

Current Issue

While looking over things (on Community Rom) I noticed that I messed up. Many know that most items in /bin and /xbin are symlinks to toolbox and busybox. When I did the pull from my phone it copied the symlinks as the actual file which has really increased the size of the rom. This was only an issue on the rom posted in the OP. My tester version was corrected before it went out. If they could post screen shots showing the usage of the system partition it has more free space. I also did not get the updated superSU.apk or binary installed. I will be putting out an update that has those things fixed along with some of the bloat moved over to /data/app. If you are happy with the current version do not worry about installing the update since there wont be any noticeable changes.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] seewhyphotos:
Thanks LawDawg for the info.

I had already rebuilt my phone and this time, I did not update the supersu binary.

I've got a nandroid backup and have tested it for restoring ability and it works. (Highly recommend that others do this as it saved me a great amount of time when I tested some other items that I knew might break root)..

I've used Titanium to break the market link to the SuperSU 2.04 package, as it seems to be working for me.

I'm good at this moment. I may make another nandroid and test the method you mentioned just to see how it works.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] stealth25k:
Anyone experiencing phone not going into deep sleep? Was wondering if oding to an official ne2 tar and reflashing this rom will help? Is it possible that remnants of Knox files would cause this. Im still on lk8 bootloader. I see a lot of entries of mdm hsic pm0 using wakelock app but im not sure if that's really the issue. Only symptom that I noticed is when my phone does go into deep sleep, the ram usage goes up and down constantly. Any tips? Thanks in advance!

Impressions of ROM

Been running this ROM for about 5 days now.

It's exactly what I'm looking for: Debloated, Rooted, Stock ROM. Everything works, no strange reboots, no lockups, just smooth, faster and excellent battery life (compared to the factory rom with KNOX).

Thank you greatly for making something that is just what it is supposed to be: Fast, Stable and knox-free.

hi JL:

I might have to try this one. Based on what I read so far, the 1.0 is most stable? Am I correct? Also, is there a way to downgrade back to MK4? I have read JL mentioned before but could not find his post any where.

TIA
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] seewhyphotos:
Been running this ROM since the beginning of Dec, 2014. Love it. Exactly what is needed.

Only issue I have come across is not with the ROM, but with ChainFire's SuperSU.

I have a problem updating the binaries like the app requests. I lose root.

Is there a possibility to have this ROM updated with the latest 2.40 version of SuperSU so it just works? I've tried all the fixes for getting it in place, and each time, it breaks root/su and I have to restore from my nandroid backup.

Sorry for the off topic.. but other than that minor issue, this is making my Note II feel new and powerful again!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
Easy solution.. dont update app or binaries. There is nothing wrong with the version in the rom and no benefits from updating them. This root issue spans pretty much every ne2 rom (a few users dont have the issue). As I have advised most users "if it ain't broke don't fix it".

Im just looking for for help or how to in this manner to start with a phone that has never been rooted. I greatly appreciate any and all help thanks.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
Has your device updated to 4.4.2?

If so skip steps 7 and 8

You will need a windows PC setup with samsung drivers and odin. The wifi fix (unless you are already on 4.3 or 4.4.2) and philz recovery in tar.md5 format. Also backup your internal sdcard before you start.

1. Power off device then press and hold vol -, home, power. This will put you in download mode.

2. Flash philz recovery with odin. Make sure you have no reboot selected.

3. Disconnect device from pc and pull battery. Insert battery while holding vol +, home, power and you will be in recovery mode. Go into backup options and backup to sdcard1 (external card).

4. Now go to wipe and format options.. Clean to install new rom.. Then go to mounts and storage.. format /data and data/media (this is your internal sdcard)

5. Under power option select reboot recovery (very important step). It will say something about no os and ask if you want to root. Do not root!!

6. Now install the rom

7. Once done got to power options and reboot to download mode

8. Connect to pc and flash wifi fix with odin (with reboot option)

Now it will reboot into the rom. Setup like normal and enjoy.

Notice there was no step to root. Rom is already rooted so you dont need to worry about it.

Looking forward to your ported rom post. This may be the last rom I rock before I jump to T-Mobile with a One Plus One, by the end of the month.

I just got this baby running!

I was unable to confirm the download booster working. That little 3g/WiFi thing never lit up. I selected a CM to download. I stepped outside too. Also since I couldn't see it light up, I wondered if just the light up thing wasn't working or if I was looking at the wrong thing, so I tried speedtest a couple times with it off and on with no difference.

Of course the complaint with Sprint is that LTE is poor and that is true, but I do moderately get it at my house.

When I stepped outside, I turned off WiFi .I did notice the 3g/WiFi thing disappear, I didn't see a LTE icon appear. I checked my network and it does say CDMA/LTE...

Soooo if there is a LTE icon that should have lit up, it was a bad LTE night at my house (fair possibility), or LTE isn't working. Anybody get just LTE to work?

Couple of questions.

Why's there a gap between the 4G icon and the signal bars?

Also, is there a way to fix app access to the SD card? I tried using Titanium Backup and get an error about free space, which should not be an issue (plenty of space). I tried flashing the S4 NAE permissions fix from the S4 to no avail.

Thanks!

I got real excited when I saw ultra power saving mode.....but it didn't do anything :eek:

Changing font and some audio things makes settings crash I noticed.....very minor. I thought the theme changed battery icon as well, and the built in theme/xposed module crashes imediately....

Those tiny things are it thus far. Loving the ROM

Wish my umbrella Corp and nightmare before Christmas themes were cm11 not 9/10. Or that they were fully touchwiz compatable.

Only thing that bugged me is I went on a cleaning spree. Gained a sizeable amount of space. Then attacked every picture folder I had. I deleted hundreds of camera and snap chat pictures and decent amount of snap chat videos.

I have gained no more space from that. Forced media scanner, did hard reboot, cleared some cache....the last barely helped.

Ran sd maid and it barely helped at all. :/

As one of the first testers of the S5ish ROM I finally got the chance to play with it for a little.

It is VERY STABLE so far. I updated the modem which then changed my Software info to the NE2 in settings. Very very minor stuff...not sure about update prl or profile either not needed or can't find it. But system runs smooth...battery is amazing!!! Had data on at work and my phone roams while in the building...only dropped 3% in around 9 hours! Previous ROMS I would be at 30-40% battery left!

Anyhow... EXCELLENT JOB as always JL! Definitely a keeper!
