So I am on s-feat 2.3 and it seems like my keyboard has changed. I SWEAR the original key allowed for touch and hold of a key to get to an associated symbol like long hold the n for a comma.

But now my keyboard has suddenly lost that ability. It just shows the letter only and long holding on most keys does nothing. It also doesn't show any sub keys on the key itself.

It says it's using the default Samsung keyboard, but something has changed.

Any ideas as to what may have happened?

Thanks
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] menissalt:
2.5 still does this, but it doesn't keep looping like 2.3. It just turns on and stays on. Clean install, wipes, etc. It's not really an issue, but you can't have the phone off and charging.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Chuck_IV:
Ok, fixed it using an app called "note 2 hidden settings" as per someone from the Stock NE2 thread. Not sure how it got turned off in the first place.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
Did you activate wanam? Once it is on the symbols disappear and none of wanans settings bring them back. I personally use gravity box instead and dont have that issue.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] coolwater22:
Ok nvm then. i have a similar situation to chuck. for some reason i cant seem to be able to swipe my finger on the keyboard and spell a word. im on the regular samsung keyboard. its been working fine and it stopped working about 2 days ago. idk what i did wrong. i checked the settings on the samsung keyboard and the swiftkey feature is checked.

EDIT: nvm I found the answer. I just had to un install Xblast tools and that did the job. :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Chuck_IV:
Yea I did. Didn't realize it did that. The app I mentioned brought the symbols back tho, so all is good.

Thanks for the heads up on Wanam.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] guycan:
It works at least for me

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] deviouskind:
Thanks. I ended up reinstalling 2.5 after a wipe of everything specified. I got WiFi aback. I will let you know if I come across this wifi issue again and what was the cause.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] slam11100:
Which wanam are you using? I see 2 options in the play store.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] rickberg:
the Bluetooth trouble was indeed a bad headset I tried the headset on three other phones with same issue went and exchanged them for the third time......and problem is solved
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
Thank you for the update. Glad it is working for you now.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] guycan:
I'm on 2.3 it came with the rom

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
Open your setting and find rom extras there you will find exposed and a few modules.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] sothus:
Been running 2.5 and I've tried quite a few things and haven't been able to replicate the wifi going bad. Maybe it's a specific app you installed.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
Well guys I am going to try and knock out one more update before Thursday. Then I am off on vacation for almost 2 weeks. I will keep checking in on everyone but wont be doing any work for a bit.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Darkangels6sic6:
It will be more than deserved. And not just saying that haha. You have released quite a few well developed roms and and updates. As well as been here answering almost every single issue in all threads.

Thank you a lot!! :D
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] sothus:
Ive used it on 2.5 with no issues.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Chuck_IV:
Is 2.4 using the same email app as 2.5 or 2.3? I ask because of the issue with 2.5's email app and changing the notification sound.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
Truthfully I cant tell you. I am working on three roms at the exact same time. With releases constantly so I try doing the best I can with the change logs to keep things as straight as possible.

I would think it has the same issue though. Some where in the Community Rom thread I posted a different email apk that fixed the issue. You can search the thread for it or wait for the next release here. I will be going through this thread and getting the issues listed so I can address them. Should have something out buy Tuesday.

The next release will address app issues. Wont fix Spen clipping, toolbox, or ultra power saving mode. This require changes to the framework and other jar files that take much more time to fix. I will get to them but want to the easier stuff fixed first. That way if any issues show up I know it is a change I made and not an issue with some app.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] huytrang90:
Can't wait for this updated release.

Do the R3D themes in Settings / ROM Extras not work on our devices?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
Only work somewhat and they are cm/tmobile style themes so you need to use an exposed theme engine for them.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Darkangels6sic6:
At first I thought there was an update so I was confused at first haha. I'm gonna go to that room and check the change log

For those wanting NATIVE tethering, check out this thread by arunningpir8.

NE2 Hotspot Mod

I've flashed the zip and tested it on a laptop and it works.

jlmancuso, you might bake this in to your future updates.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] carlitosbase:
Thanks bro to help every one on this
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
I may link it in the OP but it will not be baked in. The reason why not... Well it is a service that requires you to pay for. If I bake it in then I am helping you steal from Sprint. While I think Sprint is a theif (of our hard earned money) I just can not support theft from anyone. I may not be a man of faith but I have been raised and raise my family to have strong morals so it is just not something I can do. Heck many people try donating to me for my work here but if you check out my donation link it is to red cross not me. Hopefully everyone can understand why I can't/won't do this.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] menissalt:
Sounds good to me.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Leoisright:
I see that the native tether has been posted. Here's one with the exact services.jar from this rom. I thought JL said it was a different one from the community rom.

I modded this one and confirmed it works. Thanks to arunningpir8 for getting this out.

Haven't budged myself from 2.3 excited to see something else with this Rom.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] ianmb:
Is this working for 2.3 of this ROM? Just curious because 2.3 is the odexed version and this is just the services.jar file with no odex.

Thanks!

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Darkangels6sic6:
Same here
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
I would put a .bak at the end of your services.jar and services.odex then push it over. It should be fine but if not just delete the file and rename your .bak files. No harm done that way.

Oh about the update... I am not liking the 2.0 version it does not have the black systemUI or framework-res mods. I will have to bring them over from 1.8.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Darkangels6sic6:
I'm still on 2.3.

I was trying to transfer some files through WiFi direct today and encountered some issues.

Everything searched and connected fine. But when the file was ready to go it would just say waiting to send file, and wouldn't send.

So I tried fully connecting prior and then selecting to transfer, and the setting would force close when I selected it as my transfer method.

Then I tried s beam which only ran off Bluetooth.

Going to near by devices setting I found I could not turn that Switch on for the setting. It bounces right back to off

JLM, I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for this excellent piece of work....????

Air Command not functional

I looked through the posts and only found a few other mentions of older versions not having air command pen window functionality. I am currently on the latest build 2.5 and I am having the same issue. The air command pops up but when you choose window and subsequently draw it out it stops there and never opens the option to choose an app. At first I thought this had to do with the built in xposed module but I have tried turning it off and even tried setting it up with no luck. I was wondering if anybody has had the same experience and if it is fixable.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
Beam via bluetooth works on 2.5 but not sure about wifi direct.

It is an issue related to code inside the framework. It will be addressed when the next release is out but that will be a couple of weeks. I am heading out on vacation Friday and wont have it finished before I leave.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] egeek1:
Not working for me on 2.3. It displays connected to Admin PC with MAC address etc, but pages won't open in browser. :(
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
Yeah kinda thought it might not. 2.3 is a heavily smashed together rom. It is mostly our stock odexed rom with a bunch of apks and libs from the verizon sources rom.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Darkangels6sic6:
The beam through Bluetooth is what happened. I ended up taking out my memory card to transfer the file. I wasn't waiting on Bluetooth for an HD video lol
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
No way to long. Fyi es file explorer (think I included it) has remote manager which basically sets up your sdcard for htp transfers.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Darkangels6sic6:
Hm. I know esfile has something but I've never tested it. Now sounds like a good time haha

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mshnayde:
Plus one. Hate that.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
Not sure exactly where but on here or community rom someone said how to do. I cant remember either.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mshnayde:
Think that I just figured out how. Go to the settings and than Notification, turn off the recommended apps.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Darkangels6sic6:
I never understand how this happens.

I freed up to about 2.2GB Internet by moving stuff and deleting apps. I even erased the rom zip which is 1.5GB.

From videos and pictures I have a total of 602MB of new files and I'm down to 500MBish with low space and could not finish recording my video of the fireworks.

First video took me down to 180MB and locked up the device. Then I re deleted the apps and the second one went to about 500MB stopped recording and didn't save. :mad: where did the other 1GB go?

No other apps, pictures, downloads, or anything.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
I have es file explore pre installed. Open it and top left corner click the icon of phone on globe. Select sdcard analyst and it will list directories and files by size. This will help you find out what took up the space. Once you figure out what it is let me know and I can figure out how to stop/fix the issue. You can do it on both internal and external sdcards.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Darkangels6sic6:
I can try but I might not now what the change is since I did not do this prior. I've had this happen to numerous roms on a couple different phones.

The services,jar that Leoisright posted did work for a bit but then all of a sudden it no longer works. I reflashed NE2 modem and the S5 rom hotspot zip and still not working. It makes me wonder what really happened. I resort to the old faithful wifi tether router when needed. Although no matter which tether method I use it will slowly drop connection and cease data flow until a reboot. Then starting tether again will work... until it stops again. Continuous cycle. I'm thinking either sprint has something in place that hinders unauthorized tethering or else LTE signal loss is to blame. I'm leaning towards Sprint being able to detect unauthorized tethering because it works fine for a while then all of a sudden data flow is bottlenecked until it chokes to death and then it simply doesn't work at all. All the while the wifi connection status icon on my pc shows a good connection so that tells me it's not the wifi signal causing the data to stop working. This has been my experience for those who are curious about there tether issues as well. BTW, This happens on ANY ROM.

GN2 running 2.3 won't connect to PC

Is anyone else having this problem? Since flashing the 2.3 version of this ROM (which I am still running), I cannot connect the phone to my PC for file transfers. I have reinstalled Samsung drivers, intalled Klies, unintalled Klies, used with Dev Option on and off, changed cables and PCs, but nothing works. Any suggestions or solution?

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] tx_dbs_tx:
There is an option to choose the usb connection type when you plug in your phone. Once you select one of the two options it will work.. Connect your phone then pull down your noticication slider and you will see it in the list.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Leoisright:
Been using the same hotspot mod since posted it. Very seldom will it shut off but a simple turn back on and good to go. I've been using to to stream xfinity app on my nexus 10 for hours at a time.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] humpman1:
Tried your suggestion and, although I can hear the "beep" when it connects to the computer, the phone never pops up as being seen by the computer. I selected both "MTP" and "PTP" and neither works. I am bummed out right now because I do a lot of transferring back and forth between my device and my PC. Also, I deleted prior ROMS off of my GN2 to make room my extSD, and can't roll back to earlier ROMs from the device (lesson learned about doing that!). Somebody tell me what am I doing wrong!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] tx_dbs_tx:
In theory you shouldn't have to have Samsung drivers installed in order to use you device as a portable storage device. It's just plug & play and it will auto detect as a portable media storage device. But since you're having issues, make sure you try a different usb cable as well as a different usb port. I had the same thing happen to me on 2.3 S% beta rom but choosing the usb mode like I mentioned was the simple solution. I would uninstall your current Samsung drivers and reinstall the latest from Samsung website. Although you shouldn't have to do this for your phone to auto detect as a storage device. Sorry I have no other suggestions other than reboot your pc and phone which i'm sure you've already done. It's not the rom or else everybody would have the same issue.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
Well you dont need to roll back anything. All you have to do is flash the rom you want. I have tested all rom versions on the new firmware and bootloader and they work fine even 4.1 touchwiz.

For some reason I can not get 4g data. I have to change settings to CDMA from CDMA/LTE so I can get 3g. I do not know if it matter but it tries to activate everytime is the phone boots. I am on 2.5. Any suggestions?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] huytrang90:
I have been on 2.3 working great when mobile signal is good. When it is not or off/on as travel in freeway, battery drain so fast and then trigger the vicious cycle of charging. :( just FYI.

Has Chaz or anyone been able to theme this rom like the Community Rom 3.2+?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] humpman1:
Thanks for the suggestion. So, plugged my GN2 into my computer at work, which has no Samsung drivers intalled. Computer tried and failed to install drivers and then, Whoa?!!! Up jumps my phone! So came home and uninstalled Samsung drivers, and now I can see my phone and transfer files. I guess this is OK until I need to use the Toolkit for something. If I do, I'll just roll back the phone to a 4.2 ROM and go from there. Thanks!

I'm guessing this custom KitKat ROM is not compatible with the current version(s) of the Samsung drivers?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Chaz187:
This rom will not get a theme that I know of unless jl wants to have it themed as it is someone else rom that was ported.... I could be wrong though
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
Very correct this rom will be as is. I brought it over as a lightly themed rom as it was built and will only modify things to help functionality.

Community will have all these same features (n3) later as I get them ported over. It will take time since I have not done much with smali code before.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] :
Ok got it. Just be wondering. Awesome work you both are doing. Your time and efforts have truly been flawless in every way.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Bossog:

OK. Thanks JL. You are the man!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] coolwater22:
Yeah np glad I could help out :)..

And on your question I am not sure. I just got a new comp since my old one wouldn't turn on no more :( , but I haven't installed samsung drivers or tried to flash anything through Odin. So idk haha
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] tx_dbs_tx:
With or without Samsung drivers, your phone should auto detect as a portable storage device allowing you to transfer files to and from the external sdcard. But if i'm not mistaken you need the Samsung drivers installed in order for your pc to be able to see the phone's internal storage. You really want to have Samsung drivers installed because they do not hinder the phone's ability to connect via usb and transfer files to and from it. They actually help. The problem is not the pc or the drivers, it's the phone itself and it's current usb configuration (such as usb debugging mode or the mode it goes into when flashing, adb, etc). That's what you need to look into. 2.3 S5 beta does have a switchable usb mode for different media types while stock rom does not. I'd play with that and see what you come up with.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
If nothing else open es file explore then menu and do remote and transfer via htp address

If it makes you feel any better I'm in the same boat as you right now... I'm stil on the 2.3 beta and I'm having similar experience. I don't know if it's the tower by my house or what. LTE is just TERRIBLE for me right now. I did what you did and changed my network to CDMA mode and the 3G works pretty good. I just finished flashing billard412's "back to stock with flash count reset" and then going back to 2.3 beta and same slow LTE that constantly gives me connection errors while trying to use Google Play store and web browser. (I flashed the MK4 wifi patch via Odin and flashed NE2 modem then the 2.3 beta). I give up. I'm just going to have to accept the fact that LTE service by my house has gone from pretty good to really crappy. I have no idea why LTE service is now worse than dial-up internet back in 1992.

With al that said I don't think it's the ROM itself. I feel it's either the service in my area or something is borked with my phone such as the modem or whatever else controls LTE and connectivity.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] ianmb:
I had similar issues a while back but flashed the older MK4 modem and connection issues are a lot better. Here's the older modem if you want to give it a try.

I'm on 2.3 too..and here is LTE in my backyard.. Sprint sent me letter saying towers were being worked on.I had never gotten LTE before (at Home) However, this ROM switches to 4g seemlessly in my travels...I have tested speeds in various cities.with Atl,Chi,sanfran being some of the best.

Just to name a few.

Here in the D LTE has rolled out nicely. Sprint has been doing some work I'm happy with them.

Just saying....
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] ColeTrain!:
I get 4g one day and not the next. Same ROM.. Sprint, i believe is the cause.

I understand high traffic times affect it as well. Like 6 and 7 pm. At home When everyone else is home too.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] tx_dbs_tx:
I agree with both of you. I feel pretty confident that Sprint is to blame due to towers/network being worked on. Some days I can get good LTE at my house and some days it's terrible as I stated before. It's clear to me that it's not my phone or the ROM. So all in all I do feel that Sprint is taking big steps to make the network better even though we have to deal with outages from time to time until they get things fixed in different areas.

And where else are you gonna get unlimited data these days??? Nowhere.
