[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Tiberius Jonez:
I'm relatively new to the rooting scene, about a month, but I've learned a lot and am having a blast getting the most out of my SGH-T889. So far, after having test driven Slim Rom, several Jedi roms, Carbon, Pac Man and several others, I've settled on Jedi X20 as my favorite overall rom due to the fact that I love multi-window and installing to sd card. I like the battery efficiency, smooth look and floating notifications of KitKat though and would love to have some of the Note 3 features available.

Can you give any tips for making it a smoother experience if I want to try what you guys are suggesting? Specific apks/flashes to look for for modem /apn/feature downloads/links? I'm not afraid of reading and teaching myself, but some help in cutting down the searching time would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!! :good:

I've searched for easycat v2 in both the n7105 forum and the at&t forum and can't seem to find it. Mind posting a link?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Goody68:
Its called eZkat 2.0 in the at&t forum
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] pvaldeben:
Jedi Roms were my go to rom for a very long time. Try a custom kernel. Below link is in the Note 2 7105 model. Try Agni kernel,there is a jellybean and a kitkat kernel. Do not flash anything for the "Note 2 N7100" is if for Non-LTE phones. Only flash zips for the N7105 the LTE version.

This can give you 20+ hours of battery life on jellybean. I using it on Kitkat now and its awseome.

Cheers.

ezKAT

Been running ezKAT v2 for more than a month now. It is outstanding. All the note 3 features and it is stable. Same as mentioned above, I installed foldermount and sdcardfix and ALL features (including installing to SD card) work flawlessly. Absolutely love it.

Thanks for the help guys. Rooting is the Shiznit! Can't wait to try Android L when it lands, but have a feeling I'll end up coming back to ezKat. I'll just make a full backup first so I can easily restore if I wish. Easy peasy!

Does ezKat support wifi calling for t-mobile? I'm looking for a ROM that can support multi-window and wifi calling. I was leaning toward the Jedi Master but have seen these threads about N3 features and some look really nice. I don't have any experience rooting phones, but I'm not afraid to get my hands dirty as I've done the equivalent to a few different types of devices. Thanks in advance for the help!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] safeplayer22:
I don't use ezkat but i dont think it supports wifi calling that tmobile offers. But, now that google hangouts allows calling within the app, you can make calls using your gvoice number direct from the app as long as you are connected to the internet. It's the same as wifi calling except that you will be using your gvoice number instead of your t-mobile number.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] bariumai:
Ah, thanks. I need to use my main number with the wifi calling. My GV number is for a different state and clients. What are my options for ROMs?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] safeplayer22:
I think as long as you choose any of the t-mobile TW roms, you will get wifi calling. I think the JEDIX is probably the best out there.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] bariumai:
Thank you very much. Which one? I have read about Jedi X20 and Jedi Master X2. There's so much information out there that it's hard to cut through. Thanks again for the help.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] safeplayer22:
Use the Master X2 as that is the latter. Both will have wifi calling but I think X20 is 4.1 while X2 is 4.3.

Thank you! I'll give it a shot. BTW, can you point me to the best/most recent guide for rooting/flashing/etc the t889? I've been reading for days and there are so many pages and threads around the internet about various iterations of the Note 2 that choosing one is almost a stab in the dark. Tons of forum threads come up that are outdated, but there's not really a way to tell they're outdated except maybe by the post/update date. I really appreciate your help, and I'm sure anyone that will be searching for the same guidance in the near future will appreciate it too.:good:

Note 3 ROMS, Etc.

So...

I re-joined under a new login due to problems with the space in my previous screen name, but I digress...

Soooo... EzKat was the first "Note 3" rom I tried for the Note 2 and it was awesome to basically have a Note 3 in a Note 2 for a while. But.... after having test driven EzKAt for a while, I found it to have some issues. First of all, it was kind of quiet, so it could be hard to hear other people and the camera wasn't great - in fact, it kind of sucked. The home button didn't function correctly, it would give an error, that "this function is not installed" or something like that - I don't recall the exact wording right now, but you get the gist. And lastly, it was not super stable - I would have to reboot the phone at least once a day.

So, after a month or so, I took the advice of others and started looking for 7105 roms. I found reviews of the DN3 (Ditto Note 3) and I downloaded it. Unfortunately there was mixed information about whether 7105 roms actually worked on the SGH-T889 (TMOBILE NOTE2). So I was skeptical about trying it. Eventually I decided to try it out. The first time I tried flashing it, it failed with an error, and I was like, "well, that sucked" guess they were wrong, 7105 roms DON'T work with this!" and I installed a CM11 rom instead.

After driving that for a month and doing some more reading, I finally decided that I must have done something wrong because it seemed that at least a COUPLE people had successfully managed to get 7105 roms running on the TMOBILE Note 2. So, I redownloaded the Ditto Note 3 rom, recopied it to my phone, recopied the old Modem - "T889UVUCMK7_Modem-Dec_9_13" and my favorite kernel "PSN_AGNi_pureSTOCK-v4.2.5_N7105_4.4.2_AROMA-signed"

I flashed the rom - successfully - without rebooting, flashed the modem. Then rebooted, just long enough to make sure WIFI was working - rebooted into recovery and flashed kernel.

That was two weeks ago. Since then I've not had to reboot the phone one time. It is ROCK solid stable. Loud and clear. Camera is FANTASTIC!!! Action shots of my kid skateboarding are crystal clear and in focus every time!! One of my favorite things is, because its an an international rom for the 7105 - the Google chick is this hot sounding British babe!! I love it every morning when she tells me the weather! LoL!! But seriously, I am really really happy with the Ditto 3 rom. So, now I know for sure, 7105 roms (at least this one!) DO actually work on the SGH-T889.

So, I hope this helps someone else out that was as confused as I was. Good luck everyone!! :good:

Any love for KK kernels?

I figured I would try asking here since it is sort of relevant.

Besides the AGNi kernel, I have not been able to find other KK kernels that work with our T889s. I don't know if it is the kernel itself or a setting but there is a glitch when listening to music that causes a high pitch screeching sound to cut out the music.

[Google Chromecast] Elador:
There seem to be different versions of Chromecast, depending on the country, e.g.

Amazon.co.uk: GA3A00030A23

Amazon.de: GA3A00032A07

Does it make any difference which version I am going to buy?

Obviously, depending on in which country I will plug the Chromecast in, the available services will be different (e.g. outside of the UK, there will be no iPlayer, etc.).

But my question is about the different models, if that makes any difference, e.g. regarding language, rooting-ability, access to services, etc, whatever differences there could be!
[Google Chromecast] fkrone:
As far as I know only the power adapter makes the difference. The Chromecast determines his location based on IP. And all european models can't be rooted at the moment. Furthermore all current US models can't be rooted either (only if you get an old model with a rootable bootloader).
[Google Chromecast] Elador:
Thank you. So, I shouldn't hesitate buying the German model? (I could get it cheaper)

It is for use outside of Germany, and I don't want any of the German stuff on it, they have very restrictive copyright/GEMA rules and I don't want the German UI. So I don't want to potentially cripple my Chromecast.
[Google Chromecast] fkrone:
You won't have any of the German crap (and I say this as a German ...) on it. YouTube restrictions and other restrictions are based on IP location. So if you use it outsite of Germany you won't have any of the restrictions.

The UI language is also based on current location of the Chromecast.

Thank you very much! That is exactly what I wanted to know. :)

FIX SYSTEM CONTROL ON DECREASED BRIGHTNESS TO PREVENT HEAT

The below issue is only present on lg custom roms from 4.2 and up, thermel controls the brightness to low it down to prevent heat, this app patches the thermal to remove some vlaues.

Some advanced users use the dialler to go to the hidden menu to disable the thermal, this app is very useful for simple and fast, also to tablets with no dialler.

Hey every one,

Today, I'm going to present to you an easy way to disable the auto lowering the brightness when in 100%, and make it sit for life-long...

It's an easy way...

I HAVE NOT DEVELOPED THAT APP!!!

Its BTW already there, but i want to share it with you guys!!

Q: What is it? A: its an app called "LGBrightnessPatcher"

Q: What it does? A: it restrict the system from getting brightness decreased, when slight heat.

Q: Require root? A: of course!

Q: Does it glue the brightness to 100%? A: No, you can adjust it from the brightness slider bar...

The app patches the brightness watcher and preventing it from changing the value when the screen gets 100% after an amount of time to let the device cool down, and not to get heat...

Other than that, the patching process would not take longer than 10 seconds!! and its totally safe!! i tested it myself!!

Instructions:

1. Root your device.

2. Install the app from the links down below.

3. Give root permission grant.

4. Touch on apply permanent patch.

5. Wait 5 seconds, got a toast massage?

6. Reboot.

7. Enjoy 100% brightness without limiting!!

Before download, let me thank the developer of the app,

Tweakers and Optimizers

who make that app possible!!

Its an genus app BTW!!!

Links, why? you'll find it in play store:

LGBrightnessPatcher

Have a good day everyone! and get your G3 brighter, i mean stick at 100% all the time...

FEEDBACK guys, i tested it in LG G PAD V500, in stock 4.2.2 and 4.4.2, hope will work for the G3...

Press thank, rate...

15/04/2015: Looks like some folks have troubles installing the patch correctly, to fix the problem install busybox from play store.

[G3 Themes and Apps] LastStandingDroid:
Custom Rom will for sure disable this or add as an option it's a good thing it's maybe a risk that we can burn the screen in
[G3 Themes and Apps] Jhon998:
It's not sealed from elements such as water or dust resistant purpose, so the heat should find a way out!
[G3 Themes and Apps] LastStandingDroid:
By coming from s2 to note II and s4 where the screen burned in its a chance this might as well. just a thought not sure mate
[G3 Themes and Apps] mrw1986:
Those are also AMOLED which are notorious for burning in.
[G3 Themes and Apps] Jhon998:
This display won't burn just because of high pixels, I can't believe that the display burn!

It wasn't for the pixels mate the above user might said the issue

It didn't seem to work on g3 D855

Edit maybe it does , took some time to be activated if working

Hi all

My Wizard has been acting very strangely for the last 24 hours. Without any obvious trigger evet, it has started doing the followig things:

- GSM notification light has started blinking amber without any associated problem or warning. Normally this means GSM disabled, but I can still place and receive calls fine.

- Refusal to sync with desktop. When I plug it in, both the computer and phone make studdery 'hardware connected' noises but nothing else. Whatever I try, I cannot coaxe them to talk.

- Worst of all, at seemingly random times, in perhaps 1-minute intervals, the phone vibrates briefly and makes the notification noise, as if an appointment was coming up. But there are no appointments, all system alarms have been turned off and I can't for the life of me tell what's triggering it - there's nothing in the task manager list, so it seems to be a system fault. This is making it an extremely annoying device to be around.

I tried a soft reset, nothing. I'm reluctant to do a hard reset beacuse I have some data which I mustn't lose (but I can't back it up). The only thing that I can think of is an application I installed a while back SMS Threader, which was pretty parasitic. I removed it, but apparently the uninstallation wasn't clean. The buzzes and noises sound a bit like what the phone would do when I received a message while I had SMS Threader installed.

Any ideas?

Thanks...

I used to have Wireless Tether for Root Users back on my s2, I think it came with CM7 but it was also a stand alone app, was basically the perfect app, gave root users a reliable un-throttled tether. I tried installing it after tr'ing my s4 but it just turns yellow and says there's an error then acts like it's working. I'm guessing because it hasn't been updated in about 2 years. is there something similar to this? I've read pdanet+ combined with foxfi is supposed to be good but it disconnects randomly I guess to encourage buying the premium version. I'm moving Monday and could use a reliable wireless tether for my girlfriend and a reliable wired tether for myself.

Good day. This is my first time to post here and this site had helped me tinker and tweak my phone several times. However I can't search a thread that is somehow similar to my case.

I'm using R800i Xperia Play. As you probably know, it has a very small internal storage, so I rooted it and installed link2sd. However, even with that approach, I'm still running out of internal space. Upon checking, the data can only be linked with an ext type partition, and I made mine as fat32 since I wasn't aware of that limitation. I researched for ways to convert my partition's file system. Mini partition tool cannot do that. Nandbackup seems uncommon for my device. In the end, I thought of using Gparted Live to manipulate the contents of my sdcard partitions and reformat the 2nd one to ext2. Just when I thought that I was successful with the process, I turned on my phone, executed the remount scripts as prompted by link2sd and then reboot. The splash screen was displayed a lot longer than usual. After reaching the home screen, I tried the apps and I discovered that google play store application is gone. Moreover, when I'm trying google+, it displays a popup message that google play services is incompatible with my device. Is there any way that I can salvage my google apps? Thanks in advance and sorry for the lengthy post.
