The file is simply called "hosts" with no extension, and it's located in the /system/etc folder. I used ES File Explorer, but you can is whichever root file manager you prefer. I just added a ".bak" extension, but you could edit the file and revive the line with "games.espn.go.com" in it, delete the file altogether, or use any extension. Anything that makes it so that irs no longer named "hosts" with no extension will make the system ignore the file, and no sites will be redirected/blocked (unless you've also got some other firewall or ad blocking app running).

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] ItsLasher:
So far so good on Alpha 3.0. I have run into a few issues but overall they are not deal breakers and this is easily my new daily as it stands.

ISSUES:

1. S Note randomly crashes out. No FC just a crash back to desktop though a non factor for me. ( Moved on to ColorNote due to flashing many ROMs)

2. Once a folder is created you can not do the multiple selection from the APP draw. It gives the option but what is selected does not populate the folder.

3. A random bug report is generated daily in the Android system when nothing is going on in the front end. Assuming a back end issue that does not affect operation.

PROPS:

1. Fast and smooth

2. Battery life is great

3. S5 additions for the added eye candy

Nice work man!!

I am loving this rom so far, btw... thanks OP!

Is anyone else interested in de-bloating this rom or get a list of apks that are safe to remove?

I realize this is not the concern of the OP and do not expect this to be part of the ROM itself, just want to know if anyone else is interested in this or already has an up-to-date list of what apps can be removed or what the APK's actually are?

I am currently working on removing the bloat for myself presonally and this spreadsheet is pretty helpful, although quite old (Found in this thread )

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] skye206:

The only apps left is allshare, keyboard, camera and gallery. I left all the necessities that's not particular an app but everything to run the ROM.

I left the calculator also.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
Well I do worry a little about the bloat. I have moved a bunch of stuff to /data/app so it can easily be removed. Now there is still plenty in both the /system/app and /system/priv-app that can still be removed.

Beta 1.1 Stockish is very stable for me. Sometimes the call screen takes a few seconds to appear when an incoming call comes, but that's a small price to pay for having the latest technology on this "obsolete" phone.

---------- Post added at 01:17 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:10 PM ----------

Just a quick note for anyone who runs their phone at a non-standard screen density: I like to set my phone at 200 or 220 dpi, but a few apps here and there don't play nice with that resolution, and UI elements (buttons, menus, icons) sometimes disappear. Using the Xposed module App Settings to set those apps to 240dpi usually fixes the problem. For instance, SoundCloud doesn't display the heart button to "like" a song at 200dpi, but at 240, it appears. The stock TouchWiz apps usually look/work best at 320dpi, especially the camera. I'm sure most of you already knew this, but I hadn't seen it discussed recently, so I figured it might be helpful to anyone who recently joined the party.

The original beta 1.1 has the Devil 3.1 kernel, but did you try to flash the Devil v3.0 over 1.1? Flashing the 3.0 over 1.1 makes the ROM run smoother to me. If you haven't already tried it, here is the post for Devil3.4_0.3.0-l900-DUAL-20140910 that JL posted for us.

I am running ALpha 3.2+ still.... been acting up a bit lately, but I thought I resolve that issue, but now seem to not have root... Reflashing SUperSU, via Philz, ODIN, Play Store... nothing seems to resolve the error message I get "There is no SU binary installed, and SuperSU cannot install it." In the past, I might try a permissions fix, but Philz doesn't have that option...

Any suggestions on how to easily get SU binary re-installed? it would be nice to be able to make a backup before I reflash a ROM... :confused:

OR.. can I Dirty Flash 3.2+ again, over the top of my setup and not have the whole thing fall apart? :confused:

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] klockk:
I always allow Philz to reboot after flashing.... although I suppose there is a setting to auto-reboot after?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Shadowpaw:
No not reboot. Under advanced there is an option to let philz root your phone without using any other tools or having to flash anything. When I go back stock takes 5 sec to reroot with philz
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Drayspencer:
Try this if you haven't already. Go into Philz recovery and tick "Philz Settings" then chose "Re-Root System (SuperSU). Reboot and go to the app store and install Chainfire's latest SuperSU. This works for me when I am flashing different ROM's and lose root for whatever reason.

Yea that sucks. When I go back stock thats what works for me. The next thing I would recommend is Reflashing but I know you were trying to avoid that. Hope kingo works for ya.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Drayspencer:
Same here. Kingo always works for me.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] ErichArndt:
Kingo works, but it's temperamental. When I did it I had to go through the whole list of different combinations... rerooting and then installing SupersSU from Play Store, rerooting and flashing the SuperSU updated that someone posted earlier in the thread, and then rerooting and not installing any SuperSU at all, and I'm almost positive that the last one is what worked for me. I think Kingo will install it for you, but can only do it if it's not already installed.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] klockk:
...... Now it looks like KINGO says ROOT Successful, but then after a reboot... when I try to open SuperSU it FCs... and then I seem to be back where I started.. :S
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Drayspencer:
Sounds like a fresh install, wiping everything as in the OP is in order. Good luck!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] ErichArndt:
Get Root Checker or something to see if you're actually rooted. If you are, you might just need to update SuperSU from the Play Store.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] klockk:
.... Oh, Wait... :) Looks like PlayStore Updated SuperSU after reboot.... and it's starting to look promising!!! Cool!

Thanx for the KINGO Tip... didnt know this tool existed!! :good:

Kingo installed Custom Recovery via ODIN... not sure what Recovery I have now.. will have to go back to Philz I suspect...

(Could it be BusyBox causing issues in there?):confused:

After the Grant Root Request comes up.. and I accept, it seems like it hangs, then I get SuperSU is not Responding.... :S

---------- Post added at 11:33 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:27 AM ----------

Yup... LOOKS like I have root now, but any time I grant Superuser access to something, it just HANGS... :S (sigh).... and eventually the message "SuperSU isnt respoding. Do you want to close it?" appears... :(
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] klockk:
It LOOKS like things go fine, UNTIL SuperSU decides it needs to update the SU Binary and I tell it to do it via NORMAL methods instead of CWM/TWRP...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] ianmb:
Try disabling Superuser in the app drawer by pressing menu then tap uninstall/disable choose Superuser. Reboot then try doing it thru Philz again. Once rebooted update thru playstore.

If that doesn't work... disable it but don't install superuser from Philz...just reboot then try update thru playstore. Had this happen before but can't recall all the steps I took but these are methods I used and 1 or the other worked.
