http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2690997 I found this website and it says all I need to do is flash the zip. If it doesn't work out, how can I revert back to my previous browser? I know I can nandroid, but that's a longer process lol
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
Well that might be true with a normal rom but mine are far from normal. Many of my stock apps have been moved. So please check the location of the apps that it will be replacing because lots of mine are in /data/app including browser and samsung keyboard.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] sloanmeister:
And that's why we love JLM roms, there far from normal,He makes it so easy to remove apps one may not need.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] tx_dbs_tx:
With all that said, flashing a S5 apps zip will put those apps in locations that do not coincide with this rom or any other custom rom for that matter. Therefor a custom script would have to be written so that the apps will be written to the correct location as well as remove/overwrite the existing apps that they would be replacing. So basically you really need to look ahead and consider this type of thing before randomly flashing a generic flash able file on a custom rom. If you know what you're doing you can make a custom script that will do exactly what needs to be done on a specific rom but you will need to Lear how your specific rom is setup in order to do that. I alway dig in and get my hands dirty to see how things are setup before I flash custom zip files unless I know for certain it was written and made for that specific rom.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Darkangels6sic6:
I have an off question.

Are there any good reliable atchivers?

Especially for encrypted/password protected?

I like es file explorer a lot. Great UI and versatility.

It archives well, but there are the occasional hiccups. But overall well.

However when I try others they seem to unzip them extremely fast and fluently. However when it comes to creating a zip especially with encryption there is always some form of corruption or just the entire thing is unsupported.

Though the others work so much faster when they work.

And store files for bootanimations and other system type zips seem to not work well when made from es file explorer
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
I use a pc when I have to zip stuff myself. Most apps are fine for extraction or compression of a files totaling no more than a hundred megs or so.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Darkangels6sic6:
Ty. But i definitely like being able to do it on the fly with my phone. I think apps are not taking the full potential of archive and media conversion for our devices yet

I find most apps ok for extraction.

Just about everything I encrypt is under 100mb. Most apps just don't seem to encrypt well for me. Especially without corruption. And half the time the whole thing becomes corrupt. Mostly encrypted files.

Es file does well. Just slower.

What do you use for pc?

I use 7 zip which works great, but when I want to edit a rom or something the files come out so much bigger than normal.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] ianmb:
There's 7zip for Android, or Root Explorer. I personally have overkill with both of those AND unrar pro. But 7zip works well for about everything.

ANDROID...A New Digital Revolution Of Incredible Developers
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Darkangels6sic6:
I haven't tried any pro apps. 7 zipper needs pro for encryption. I think it's regular compression was decent though.

Rare seems to unzip well, but fail at encryption with constant corruption.

I tried a couple different charsets, but I don't know which to use.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
Well I use Ubuntu so I can only suggest for it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Darkangels6sic6:
Haha. That definitely makes a difference
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] humpman1:
Sound seems much lower with this ROM

Does anyone have a working, reliable volume booster that will work with this ROM (I'm still on 2.3)? The sound seems to be very low, especially on phone calls. I love the ROM, but the teeny, low volume is frustrating. Any suggestions are appreciated.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] tx_dbs_tx:
I use Root Explorer (paid version) for zip file handling on my phone. You are wanting encryption for zip files and that adds a lot of room for errors especially when moving those files from one device to another. I wouldn't create large zips on my phone, I would do that on a PC. There are compression options that are not available on mobile zip apps. For basic zip compression of small files it may be ok but you definitely want to use 7zip or an app from a well known top tier compression company like 7zip because they are known for broad compatibility. I use it along with my custom scripts for creating mods for Call of Duty, etc.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Darkangels6sic6:
Yeah I haven't got to try any pro apps for this.

And yes it does indeed leave room for error.

My files are usually 10-70MB.

Also on others I'm not sure which charset to use.

I still believe for compression and conversion that the apps just are not fully coded right and not taking full potential yet.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Darkangels6sic6:
Use a root explore and edit the default gain file.

System/etc/default gain.

The one that says "headphone".

Edit the headphone volume value.

Mine says 63, but I don't recommend higher than 60 for most.

beta 2.5

----------------------

So i just installed this rom, after attempting to use community rom (beta 1.1) which was unbelievably slow, and crashy. Which was weird b/c in benchmarks it was very very fast, but in actual use it was very laGGY.

I used the same flashing procedure, wipe for new rom, format internal Sd.

And while this rom is very snappy and has yet to crash, i'm annoyed that "rom extras" keeps crashing, and won't update adaway, or even download the hosts file.

Is there a way that I can manually remove the adaway that comes with rom extras, and install another?

Also is there away I can add a flash light to the quick setting menu?

Also, what's the point of the Ultimate dynamic navbar in a phone with hardware buttons?

And is the System menu samsungs new interface? It's actually kind of a pain to navigate, I kind of wish Samsung wouldn't differentiate from standard android so much in that aspect.

Maybe i'm in the minority, but I actually like being able to use categories effectively as in how you do in the standard interface and Smart Launcher.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Darkangels6sic6:
I think that's just yoy not being used it. Not that you have to prefer it still.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] avddreamr:
In concept I don't like menus where I can't see most of the categories at once. For example the main reason I use smart launcher is for the vertical categories otherwise I would use themer. There has to be a reason why both Google and Apple adopted the same policy. Granted once search works on this rom, I'll be able to live with it.

Sorry guys ?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] ianmb:
Pretty sure that while you are in Settings...hit menu and it should give you the option to view it in list mode instead. Or maybe you can collapse the categories by tapping on the up arrow to the right of each header. Been a while since running thus so I could be wrong...?!

TiBu to remove adaway or system/app for manual removal.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Darkangels6sic6:
On n3bula. I had trouble with trying to use a ps3 controller.

I could only pair with USB and it only worked for things like home button and stuff.

Didn't work with gaming or anything with any n64 or psx app
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] tx_dbs_tx:
If i'm not mistaken the emulators/apps would be responsible for PS3 controller syncing/compatibility. But.if the app developer states their app supports the PS3 controller then I would think the Bluetooth support might be lacking in the rom instead. That's my thoughts.

[MENTION=4011301]jlmancuso[/MENTION]. OK, so I really like this ROM other than the toggles not working. What needs to be done to fix the toggles? I assume smali code. I like the black/white toggles but I would like to see if I could maybe look into getting them working. I've been reading up on java code and I have all the tools to do anything I need to do with a ROM, I just need some direction. Thanks in advance.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
There are files in the rom that the controllers need located in /system/usr/keylayout which I dont have. Also the toggles do work only they have no indication that they changed. To fix it just need some new pngs.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Darkangels6sic6:
Oh ok. Ty
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] tx_dbs_tx:
I see. Well the png's won't be much trouble but the controllers on the other hand will be a bit more complicated especially if you don't have the necessary files.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Darkangels6sic6:
At least on screen does decent. I'm happy I can use USB host with flash drives haha
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
Easiest way is to find a ne2 rom it works with then copy the *.kl file that you need to the rom.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] coolwater22:
Where would these files be located so I can see if I can do it? I miss playing ff9 with the controller haha
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
system/usr/keylayout

it will be one of the Vendor_xxxx_Product_xxxx.kl files
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Darkangels6sic6:
So I should just be able to download a different rom and extract the files?

Any ne2 ro. You said?

So like one of the stock rooted roms basically?

---------- Post added at 07:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:38 PM ----------

Also a factory reset should reset the kernel right? I like some of the functions of the kernel but as we have seen it does not play nice with experimental roms. And I found out it does not even actuall oc. Just shows that it does in the settings for me. It's OK but too many constant reboots.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
Factory reset only clears settings. You need to dirty flash to replace the kernel. For the .kl files you should be able to get them from any 4.3 or 4.4.2 tw rom. Now you will need to know that the rom does work with the controller first. Then open the files with any test app and it will show what it controls.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Darkangels6sic6:
Ok. So that or go through the whole internal wipe thing again.

And sweet. Hopefully I can try that soon.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
No wipes just dirty flash or pull boot.img and make a flashable zip.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Darkangels6sic6:
I may try the whole wipe process again anyway depending on the situation.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Darkangels6sic6:
Weird. I did the full wipe install. I replacing the wanam with the latest version manually because the update in xposed fails.

So it worked, but any time I tried using the back to kill function the SU grant permissions box would come up, but the screens touch would not respond until the 15 seconds was up and denied access.

So I reverted.

I now realized that the image I used in the notification panel last time is already set.

Must have been saved in the Android folder somewhere???? But I didn't back up or restore app or data for it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] tx_dbs_tx:
[MENTION=4011301]jlmancuso[/MENTION]. I know you have a lot of stuff on your plate and bigger priorities so I thought I would tackle the drop down toggles today since I have some free time. I was looking through the png files last night and I did see the associated files but I guess I need to flash 2.5 again and see which toggles are bugged so I can make sure I fix them. It seems the file names will need to be correct for the missing png's and I notice some of the png's are not the right size/color/icon. I'm curious why the toggles are incomplete in the first place? Making new png's and icons is no issue for me, I have years of experience with Photoshop and PSP. But the naming convention and knowing which files are associated with the round toggles seems to be the key here. Any insight on this before I begin?

EDIT: After comparing the contents of SystemUI\Data\res\drawable-xhdpi with S5-Feature 2.5 and Community 1.1 beta, Every file in that folder is identical in both ROMS. Where exactly are the custom toggles located?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] hondafreak513:
Bringing this back up. Really liking the options and the setup...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] coolwater22:

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Darkangels6sic6:
N3Bula

Every since I erased and re flashed everything it has been mostly smooth sailing.

I love the idea of that kernel, but this rom as we knew was not ready for it. Can't wait to eventually be able to use it or try Android L.

I even found the answer to the screen off music lag. Just use performance with deadline. No clock change required.

I have found pegasusq with noop to bring good speed and battery though.

Only hiccup I have found lately is that keyboard seems to lag often. That was never an issue before.

I't's my goal to get the Note 4 within the month though,

---------- Post added 16th October 2014 at 12:01 AM ---------- Previous post was 15th October 2014 at 11:31 PM ----------

That constant keyboard lag is killing me though. That's on any governor or io setting.

It's reminding me of texting on old lg keyboards. It happens a lot now. Luckily I have taken fancy to trying out the handwriting more often.

Heads up to people. If you have the ultra power saving mode that works.

I turned mine on for the first time while on the browser. I'm guessing that's why I didn't go through the whole set up yet.

Battery came out. When I booted up phone wouldn't open from lock screen. No button function or anything.

Idk if it was an upsm thing or cause it didn't fully set up.

Using twrp file manager

The first foolish thing I did was copied the upsm app over, wiped cache/dalvik, then rebooted. I put it back when that didn't fix it either way. I believe this lead to later issues.

Then i went to system app emergency apps ino .back. Well that got rid of gray scale.

Then I went to private app and copied over seclauncher2 then deleted it wiped again.

I think this got stuck at loading apps.

Then placing it back finally allowed me to get into the phone.

However it's stuck in a more simplified state. Not greyscale though. And it's the TouchWiz home but limited. I went to app manager and enabled my rom settings, xposed and upsm was already not disabled I think......

But xposed detects no modules for me to disable it. And this is where deleting the upsm prior probably botched it. It was still selected in toggles. I might have been able to disable it otherwise.

Obviously I'm trying to avoid resetting everything. Hoping I make a breakthrough.

Hey Mods. For Note 2 JLM is our main guy. Let's bring him back.

No disrespect anyone else Chaz ect. JLM kept these threads alive.

I'm not sure of the income structure of XDA. But I would have to assume more people visiting was better. No JLM ... Less activities... Less traffic.

Either way Let's let all these note 2 people have fun. Bring JLM back.

Honestly I'm surprised he wasn't suspended sooner every other forum I use would have suspended him the first moment he lashed out at a moderator. The mods are just to enforce the site rules they aren't giving anyone special treatment just because the OP provides a lot of ports doesn't give him the right to act like a jackass. You can all go ahead and act like the moderator was at fault but the OP comment on Google+ just further validates he needs to get his attitude checked I'd like to see any of you react that way to a police officer issuing you a citation, not even a ticket as he was not instantly banned, for violating a law.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] ianmb:
If he is...it won't be for long . Some people are degrading his work and him personally. I've personally read some of his g+ mails from persons on XDA and they are very immature and hateful.

Valid point. That xda wont go under. Im just explaining that the spirit to share should encourage more users. JLM has taught me a LOT. Even if he is rash and rough around the edges.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] xarthur:
Hi all and many thanks to all XDA developers.

And a big Big up to you Jlmancuso for this great work downed!

After trying several custom roms mostly based on Cyanogenmod on SPH-L900, I have never been so enamored as the use of Stylus missed me as was the typical environment of the Samsung Stock rom . short!

I'm currently spinning on the rom S5 Beta 2.5 and I'm happy because this rom has given my Sprint L900 the youth of a lifetime (:cool::angel:.

However, I noticed some little tricks like:

* 1) When I make a call, it can take 5 to 8 seconds to display the call interface; Likewise when I receive a call.

2) An error message such as "System parameter has stopped" for 2 seconds and it disappears or proposes to press Ok;

So is it possible to correct this? If so, thank you for helping me!

Congratulations to you Jlmancuso :good::good:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] cidxtc:
Jlmancuso has been permanently banned from XDA so I doubt anything of his will ever be updated. I do know that there were multiple versions of that port and some were better than others. Just dig through his androidfilehost account and try a few.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] xarthur:
Hi all beta testers! And thank you all those who test these roms and make a return, thank you.

I have a sph-l900 on which I flashed S5-FEAT beat 2.5 and it must be said that the rom turned well but with some small porblème.

Then Cidxtc advised me to try other versions. I tried the beta 2.3 and the beta 2.4 which work very well but the only problem is that I can not find the option "Access Point Names" to set the data of my operator to access the internet .

Please, if someone encountered the same problem and was able to solve it it helps me to do it because I like the beta 2.4 and I want to keep it.

Thank you all!

Wow man so this rom is awesome. Super fast. Have few random force close messages but it doesnt seem to affect anything. Sometimes settings dont stick on reboot it was mostly the navbar but I just uninstalled it since I use pie. The wifi tar you posted to afh didnt allow me to load into odin says the file is invalid but for some reason I didnt even need it. I tried firing up wifi and it worked without the wifi patch. Also my google wallet seems to be fixed. My secure element has been borked for a long time and it wouldnt allow me to even set up tap to pay but it seems to work now. Im gonna try it out today and see if it works. Awesome work man. You guys amaze me.
