Are you wiping internal sdcard?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Drayspencer:
Yep
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
and rebooting recovery after the internal sdcard wipe? I am doing the install myself so you can see how the log should look after an install compared to what you have given me.

Just swapped to pc and noticed your banner. Very cool!!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Drayspencer:
:( Left out a step...I'll get it right.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
That reboot is very important. Not sure if it is the cause of your issue but could be.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Drayspencer:
OK I think I finally got it right, it looks different this time after rebooting recovery.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
Yet you still have not root? There is some odd issue with the kernel. I took it from 1.1 which root worked on. I am working on different flashable stockish kernel right now. Will post it once it is working.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Drayspencer:
Ok and thanks for the hard work!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
Thank you for taking the time and getting all the necessary logs to make sure it all works. Does power off charging work for you right now?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Drayspencer:
Yes it charges with the N2 powered off. Never had a problem there. So far everything else including the call screen lag seems to be a go including air commands.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
Now on a different NOTE! LOL! I will be doing one more release for community then it will be a finished project. I will be fixing all the minor issue and calling it done. The mms issue for everyone will be fixed along with signature unlock and a couple of other things most users dont even know are broken.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
Are you on the NE2 bootloader? If you are not sure boot into bootloader and see is it says anything about knox.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Drayspencer:
Yes says "KNOX WARRANTY VOID: 1", should that be? But it is grayed out though.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
Yes that is fine. Just wanted to check. I think maybe the bootloader might be part of the power off charging issue. I am also on NE2 bootloader and it works fine.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Drayspencer:
That makes sense, now we have to see what bootloaders others are on. Maybe someone will chime in here soon.....HELLO!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
Well stock kernel just not playing nice. Would you be willing to try a slightly older version of devil I put 3.1 in the rom but 3.0 seems to be more stable. It will give you root back without doing anything.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] tx_dbs_tx:
I found the cause of the "not charging when powered off" problem. Been testing this bug inside out till I figured it out!

It's not the ROM and it's not the kernel... It's a bug in Phil's recovery version 6.07.9. The bug is triggered when you select the "reboot recovery" option. When you choose to reboot recovery then go about your normal tasks, it gets stuck in a boot cycle. The way to get out of it is to choose the "power off" option, reboot into recovery then choose the "reboot system" option. If that doesn't work then choose "reboot to download mode", yank the battery out and power it back on. I tested this on Phil's 6.12.8 and the bug is not in that version (it's the only other version I currently have).

I would like to add that I did a complete restore to MC2 with flash count reset then rooted with Toolkit and flashed TWRP. At that point the power off charging worked perfect. I tested Phil's 6.12.8 and it also worked fine. As soon as I flashed Phil's 6.07.9 and immediately chose "reboot recovery", the bug appeared. This has been tested and confirmed by me. Feel free to test this and report back. I am confident the bug IS with Phil's 6.07.9 and NOT the ROM or kernel.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Drayspencer:
Sure, will be off work soon and I'll load 1.1 up and flash devil 3.0 and see what happens.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Aquarius169:
Does anyone know what the test you take after orientation and how many questions. What about the backing test is it a pass or fail thing. They said they sent you home if you fail. Just a grasp of the situation
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] ianmb:
Huh?????

ANDROID...A New Digital Revolution Of Incredible Developers
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] hondafreak513:
OK so I switched to the newest version of philz recovery, and flashed 1.1 devil version. so far its running ok.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Aquarius169:
Sorry wrong thread
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
Sorry but philz 6.07.9 is NOT the issue. I use this recovey version and have never had that issue.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] JusticeAA:
I attached a modified SystemUI that fixes the misaligned 4g icon and removes the S-Finder button from the expanded status bar so the time and date fit properly.

Hope it helps.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
Thank you sir. If you dont mind I will host it on afh and post it in the OP so it is easy to find.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] JusticeAA:
That would be great.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] tx_dbs_tx:
Just because you use it it and you're the only one who hasn't had the issue doesn't mean it's not the cause on my phone or anybody else's. Like I said, as soon as I flash Phil's 6.07.9 and use the "reboot recovery" power option it does it every single time. No other recovery has done this. This is why I asked for others to duplicate this and post back their results.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] wackydroid:
I'm on 1.1 w/ stockish kernel, and have been on all alphas up to this beta. I've jumped between Philz 6079 and the newest Philz a few times, and since I found an issue with the md5 checking on the newer one, I've stuck with 6079.

In none of these configurations have I had the power off/on issue. I shut down, plug in and get the grey battery with circle, then the battery with green level and running dots beneath.

And I'd speculate (and this goes back to the OG4G Evo days) it's started becoming increasingly obvious that certain manufacturers/plants, or even just different runs in those plants, can make a difference in the way certain components behave. Micro differences, but sometimes enough to make the 'same' handsets react differently to similar code.

That's my theory and I'm stickin' to it, pardner.

:cowboy:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
Man lets end this simply. This issue YOU have is not this rom so please take it to another thread. If you believe it is philz then please post it there and not here.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] matttrout22:
Could u plz give instructions on how to get this in the correct spot

thanx in advance
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Drayspencer:
I tend to agree with that observation. It seems that some phones architecture has been altered/upgraded in the manufacturing cycles. Makes sense to me
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
Download file and make sure you have aroma file manager. Boot into recovery and run aroma file manager. Copy the systemui.apk from sdcard to the system/priv-app. Tell it to overwrite existing file and then exit aroma wipe cache and dalvik then reboot (with aroma file manager it will keep permissions from original file). While you can do this with a root explorer you will stsrt having fcs soon as you replace the apk making it difficult to change permissions on the file and reboot.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Drayspencer:
JL, after we talked last night I flashed the 1.1 (Devil) and discovered a very important step that I left out of the install in the OP that was killing my ROOT access once I rebooted.

Factory reset/Format for new rom --- Under mounts choose format /data /data/media (this is your internal sdcard) --- Reboot into recovery (Very Important). It ask if you want to Root your device, press “NO” and then flash the ROM and N2 will be rooted after reboot, at least in my trial. I did have the problem of the phone rebooting after powering down and plugging in the charger. After plugging in the charger and short pressing the power button I get the grey battery indicator, then the devil kernel logo and then the green battery level indicator and it sets for about 5 minutes then reboots itself on 1.1 (Devil).

After flashing Devil3.4_0.3.0-l900-DUAL-20140910.zip over 3.1 kernel it seems that took care of the power down charge reset thing but I still have to short press the power button to get the charge LED on the phone to light up and show the battery indicators. I will run 1.1 with the 3.0 kernel for the rest of the evening and see how it responds.

:confused:I flashed 1.1 (Stockish) and powered down the device and plugged the battery to the charger and it did not reboot so the stockish 1.1 kernel seems to be ok AFIK.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
Thanks for feedback and conformation. It is always important to follow OP instructions completely. There is a reason the time was taken to give exact instructions for users to follow. I will go back and add in the step about denying the option to root. Again thanks for helping get all this sorted out. I dont always have time to test everything myself.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Drayspencer:
:good: We all enjoy helping you out man.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] wackydroid:
Followed this perfectly, but I now have a black background Homescreen that won't let me put in a wallpaper... I even tried changing the theme, but still have a black Homescreen..and no Notification bar/dropdown.

WTF?

:eek:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] tx_dbs_tx:
The reason I posted about this in this thread is because it has been discussed a lot in this thread and I wanted to let those people know what I have found to cause it on my phone. I already said it's not the rom or kernel. I can duplicate it on any rom and I can do the steps needed to stop the issue every time. That is the whole point of my post... to help people. If you don't like it too bad. I wanted people to know this so that they didn't keep assuming that it was caused by this ROM or kernel (which you yourself mentioned was the possible cause). What part of this offends you to the point you have to be rude? You ain't my daddy bro!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
Not sure. I have not tested the apk so cant really say.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] wackydroid:
Dude, I don't usually get involved in these things, but JL is a particularly special developer - he works his bloody ass off for nothing but the sheer pleasure of making something others can enjoy and does it nicely, constantly and civilly.

From the beginning of your "conversation" with him about this issue you've showed an increasing lack of respect for what he HAS accomplished and what he's TRYING to accomplish. You may have said you didn't blame the rom but you sure as hell have been ramping up the disrespect of HIM personally, and that simply ain't cool.

You brought about that response from him completely on your own. Back it down a notch or spare the rest of us your drama and move on.

:rolleyes:

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
None of what I said was rude if you were offended then sorry. Now before a mod comes in here chill some.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] wackydroid:
!!!!!USE THIS WITH EXTREME CAUTION!!!!!

Not only didn't it work as "advertised", it left me with no noti bar or dropdown, a black Homescreen that could not be replaced, AND when I try to restore my PERFECT set-up (from right before I installed it) EVERYTHING GOOGLE FCs....Arrrrrgggggghhhhhhh....

:eek:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] ColeTrain!:
All of this is so important on any ROM. Do it twice even. Thanks.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] JusticeAA:
It's probably a problem with the permissions or ownership. Use a file explorer and check to see of the permissions are set to rw,r,r (644) and the ownership is set to root.

I should have time to make a flashable zip later today which will avoid most of the problems.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] DarkAngel:
For what it's worth......

Aroma will also let you set permissions manually if need be ( I always do no matter ). Just hold down on the apk after you have pasted it in the priv-app folder and you will see the permissions section in the pop-up.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jpisini:
deleted
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] JusticeAA:
As promised, here is a flashable zip for the fixed SystemUI.apk. I removed the divider line before the clock since it wasn't needed anymore and included the Android L boot animation as a bonus.

jlmancuso, feel free to edit and/or include in your rom however you see fit.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Aquarius169:
What does this do is it for 1.1 or 1.0
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
read the last few pages and you will know
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] VikingoRMCF:
So which recovery is recommended to flash 1.1 Stockish?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jpisini:
I used Philz and it worked fine.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] guycan:
Yes people need to read yea people need help but there is so much hostility in this thread also remember u needed some guidance @ some point

SGNote2
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] clinton77:
It removes S finder from pull down and removes the line. Has different boot animation.

Sent from my SPH-L900 using Xparent Cyan Tapatalk 2
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] JusticeAA:
It fixes the 4g icon and removes s-finder from the expanded status bar. It is for beta 1.1.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] wackydroid:
In keeping with my post yesterday:

We are a 2 Note2 family, my son and I both have 'em (his is release day, mine 4 months later). Last night, after some initial checking and approval on mine, I set to putting 1.1-stockish on both handsets.

Everything went smoothly, although I did have to use the SSU2.02 update flash to regain lost root, and both phones really seem to love the rom BUT...

My son's N2 needed the power on/off fix, mine did not. Go figger.

JL - We've run the crap out of them all day, using every app, over-loading memory on purpose, split-screening 2 games at a time, home-buttoning out of an app/running something else/then going back into it, yada yada yada, plus in my area TW wifi just went ultra-high-speed and we've been downloading huge files in the background of playing games, and this ROM ain't no Beta...

Everything seems flawless... AWESOME WORK!!!!! You really outdid yourself!!

:cool:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
Well since most are not sure what alpha/beta/release candidate are give this a read.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] DarkAngel:
Would it be alright with you jlmancuso if I threw in the flashlight mod in the mix for ya as well? If it's okay just let me know and I can have someone test out the flashable and/or have a look at the script. It writes the "db" file as well and flashes the Android L boot animation.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Drayspencer:
Same here, my wife keeps asking what in the world am I doing in here. I have flashed 1.1 (devil 3.2) and I flashed the 3.0 zip that JL posted here:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=55559175&postcount=1292

I been stressing it like there's no tomorrow and it runs smooth. I also flashed 1.1 (stockish) and it runs just as smooth. I agree, great work!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
Go for it. Only one suggestion. Make 2 one for flashlight and one for boot ani. Flashlight has been on my list just not got there yet. So thanks for saving me a little work.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] SASQUATCH:
Sorry
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Avi8ion:
Looks Promising. I don't know if I should try it just yet.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] DarkAngel:

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] masterpero:
Can someone direct me to the battery off fix download post, i had it but think i deleted it after it wasnt working for me on 1.0, im on 1.1 with stockish kernal now battery off not working want to try it to see if it works for me on 1.1 before i try devil 3.0 kernal, thanks
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
The fix is built into all the betas so flashing it makes no difference. Also it is in the op. What bootloader are you using?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] tx_dbs_tx:
Are you on Phil's recovery 6.07.9? If so try pulling battery then reboot straight to recovery and then go straight to power options and choose reboot system. I get the no charge issue only when I do the reboot recovery in Phil's. This fixes it for me every time. Its worth a try and only takes a few seconds to see if it works for you.

[MENTION=4011301]jlmancuso[/MENTION]. I don't know exactly which bootloader I have but I can tell you that it's the one in the Toolkit 2.0 by Skip. I think it's unsecured bootloader for LJC. If I need to update it could you give me some advice on which one I should flash? Thanks.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
Right now I am not recommending a bootloader change. Just trying to get more info from users having the non charge issue.

You can use this free app to find out bootloader version. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.vndnguyen.phoneinfo

Jl looks like mc2 bootloader, should i update to ne2 bootloader?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
Well once bootloader is updated then knox gets tripped. If you are still under warranty then dont update. Also not sure if it is really the issue yet although things are pointing towards it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] ErichArndt:
I don't know if it's helpful for you or not, but I'm on the MK4 bootloader and I've consistently had the charging issue throughout every change.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
So any of yall off warranty and want to try ne2 bootloader? Note that downgrading from ne2 bootloader is not a simple task.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] masterpero:
Jl mines up, my contract is almost up so it doesnt matter to me, note 4 here i come lol plus i know how to downgrade if i need to
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] ErichArndt:
It sounds scary. Forgive me if maybe I step back a few spaces in line and see how it works out for someone else. lol
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
Ok you will need a pc setup with odin or heimdall. I will make up a package tomorrow.

No worries. I put out the warning so everyone would know what is going on. Hate to get someone to do something they were not sure about.

Hey guys

Anyway to get an action memo apk or anyway to save my spen quick notes I make. I can write them but can't find them saved anywhere.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] tx_dbs_tx:
By default the notes you create and save with Smote are saved in "device/sdcard/S Note". You can back them up by manually transferring the Smote files to your external sdcard, Titanium backup, etc.

Wanted to say great job been on 1.1 stockish kernel for about a week battery life is great, I was unplugged yesterday for about 18 hours had 4 hours of screen on time and still had 26% when I plugged in.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] revaaron:
are you kidding me? beta 1.0 I get under 5hours on the normal battery and about 11hrs on the zero lemon 3x battery.

1:20 off charger on the 3x zero lemon battery and I'm at 86%. Though when I look at the battery usage, it says 39% OneDrive and 34% Google+... hm...Those should be synched up, idk why they are using that large a percent.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jpisini:
Right now I am 3.5 hours off charger and 24 minutes screen time and I just hit 90%

This thing is great on the weekend I can go 2 days with light usage 1 hour of screen a day roughly. I use it more during the week for work.

I get that they may be saved. But there is no app with this rom to view them. As the snote app is different then the one the note 2 runs.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] revaaron:
I'm sure I allow them to be updated? With OneDrive and G+ removed, I put in the normal battery for a run. I went off charger at 5pm to go for an hour run. By 10pm the phone shut off due to dead battery.

I don't remember which one this is, there are two. Brown is older and red is newer. Here is one, if its not the one you want, just use Google and I'm sure you will find it quick. I put .apk in my search to help. This is a zip, however.
