Sir [MENTION=4579645]wesamothman[/MENTION] i tried your lite v5 because i am facing reboot issues with Eclipse and no one is responding over there. So fast and so good. Can i flash the latest agni or would you reccomend the stock kernel? I also want a Spen air command mod, i have seen the mod but is it really 612mb? Thanks

PS

I am sticking Lite V5. Thanks
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] wesamothman:
Well. Welcome.

See,

1. I always recommend stock kernel but Agni kernel is also compatible with my rom.

2. No need to flash aircommand mod. Go to post no 10 and there you will find lite.black.aircommand version. Flash that but you must read how to install that version step by step.

Good luck.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] olivares.leody:
Thanks [MENTION=4579645]wesamothman[/MENTION] for fast reply. The mod is 612mb? and there is no instruction. I checked your V1 air command and its only 153mb. Is 612mb aircommand correct?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] dalanik:
Hello,

I just flashed lite 5.0 and it is really nice. One issue I encountered is that I have unbelieavble amount of items in gallery and on closer examination, it shows stuff from folders vrtheme and vrtheme.backup on internal SD. I can't copy .nomedia file into these folders, just fails, what are these folders are they safe to delete etc?

Thanx!

Hi [MENTION=4579645]wesamothman[/MENTION]

I was wondering if you could just give me a hint of how to reduce the height of the Lockscreen widget in 240 DPI as I don't want to use exposed app settings to set it to 320.

I would be so thankful if you could plz ..
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] wesamothman:
612mb is not a mod. This is s full rom with air command.

Instructions can be found in my other thread of air command mod. If you don't find it let me know and I will give you how to.

Edit :

Here is how to step by step

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=63012497

No no. This folder is because of vrtheme used in my installation script.

Open any root explorer or file manager and go to /data/media/0

There you will see two folders of vrtheme name.

Delete them.

I really don't useuse 240 dpi and I don't know by heart how to do it. But I will try to see if someone can help.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] FuTChY:
Many thanks Wessam :)

[MENTION=219643]yann[/MENTION],

Would you do it please ??

Here is what I mean, the first attachment is the lockscreen on 240 so that the widget height is higher than it is in the 2nd screenshot.

I want the make they all short as it is in the 320 DPI one...
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] olivares.leody:
Hi [MENTION=4579645]wesamothman[/MENTION] I am already on V5 lite. The one with air command is V2. Do i need to full wipe again? I just flashed version 5 and just finished restoring my apps. Is there any way to flash only the air command? I saw your air command V1 thread. Is it okay to flash V1 air command with V5 lite version of your ROM?

Many thanks
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Yannn:
Oops .. sorry I don't understand that ... I don't know how to make that same... I just say that I use this rom in 240 dpi mod...
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] wesamothman:
Standalone air command mod in nu other thread still needs full wipe. If you flash that on top of v5.0 will cause force closes. And that mod is not themed.

However v 2 rom with Aircommand still a rom with Aircommand built in. And to flash that you still need to full wipe.

Full wipe is necessary in all cases for Aircommand to work.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] FuTChY:
Oh, yeah, it's ok :)

I use it too but I set the screen dpi and keyboard only with 320 using xposed app settings but I wanted to use the lock screen in 240 dpi.

Thanks anyways.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Emperon:
Is it okay to flash " Rom file --> wesamothman/kernel/

boot.img

" if I want to return to the original kernel ? If no what should I do ?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] wesamothman:
That kernel is my stock kernel. If you are on any other kernel, yes you need that kernel in my rom as flashable zip.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] olivares.leody:
Thats sad. Anyway i tried to install sa V1. Without wipe and its fine but its not themed. So i flashed back the V5lite rom with wipe but it says installation failed "failed to update su binary" but when i rebooted itsays its fine. Anyway im going to wait your V6 with air command. ?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] wesamothman:
Unfortunately there will be no more new Aircommand rom.

V2 Aircommand is already final and themed.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] olivares.leody:
So correct me is this is the correct procedure.

1. I flashed V2 aircommand

2. Wait for superuser and grant air command

3. Reboot

4. Reboot to recovery

5. Flash V5 without wipe? Thanks
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] wesamothman:
No. If you flash lite.black v5 on top of aircommand version you will lose aircommand because system files will be overwritten. No wipe means your data apps will be intact, but not system partition.

So correct procedure to flash lite.black.aircommand v2 is:

- Backup nandroid your current rom.

- Full wipe, (cache, dalvik, system, data)

- Flash ROM.

- Reboot.

- Wait for supersu prompt and grant the aircommand mod. (couple of seconds).

- Reboot.

- From App drawer, switch on the aircommand.

can this https://github.com/hushnymous

be implemented in your rom or an app be made for general use.

Since you are into development it would be easier for you to understand the nuances of its implementation.

[Galaxy Note II Android Development] anhaussner:
Hi wesam.othman,

first of all: thanks for your awesome v5 ROM... i am totally happy with it, it runs great and having it with 265dpi gives a nice overall look and performance.

Regarding the discussion about AirCommand... I flashed your standalone aircommand from this thread: http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-note-2/development/mod-aircommand-stock-deodexed-rooted-4-t2843625

It's working perfectly fine... colours are black and white so it also integrates nicely from the "theme-point-of-view"... maybe that's a solution for all the peepz asking for a v5 with AirCommand...
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] wesamothman:
Thanks for the report.

What are your changes ?

Only build.prop ?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] anhaussner:
Yes... basically I just changed the DPI in build.prop... and I made my phone believe to be an Galaxy S6 Edge... so I changed the product code as well... both changes are done in less than one minute and work perfectly fine. I like the look of 265 dpi more... everything is a little smaller and looks "sharper"... the few apps which don't like the change (dialer, contacts, camera) I brought back up to 320 with xposed module "app settings".

You standalone AirCommand I flashed while setting up my phone... means:

1) Wipe everything

2) flash v5 ROM

3) flash standalone aircommand (in TWRP "add more zips") - so it directly gets installed after the ROM

4) wipe cache/dalvik

5) first boot --> all good
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] ph3nom:
Hey all and first of all thanks for the Rom

I just tried your way however i'm stuck at Samsung logo.. I don't know how long it usually take? because i have leave it for 15 minutes...

Edit:

It works now.. i had to use TWRP

Thanks

<b><font color="Red">Announcement:

Tomorrow we will release the below flashable mod with the following features only for Lite.Black v5.0

1. Added battery percentage within (inside) the battery icon as below.

This will give you better space on status bar if you disable "show battery percentage" from settings.

2. Added speed meter on status bar (meter will only show if you have wifi or data connection on).

3. Added CPU stats on status bar expanded, when you pull the notification panel down above the brightness slider. This will require that you activate from an App that i will include too. So you will have an option to enable/disable CPU stat and/or Governer.

4. Theme update and enhancements with better layouts.

5. Heads up notification that you can enable/disable from settings/display.

After releasing this Mod package, we most probably are going to separate the full version from Lite.black version on two different threads.

We will keep this thread for full version. And we will open another new thread for Lite.Black version.

The new thread will have new v6.0

Stay tuned,

Hello,

I tried to flash the v9 first, but it won't boot, after upgraded to v11, but the installation wiped out also the EFS folder content.

Copied the EFS backup to the correct directory, but automatically the system delete it as soon the Note 2 boot up (I don't know how and why).

Did that from TWRP recovery, copy the backup EFS files into the EFS empty folder directory /EFS, check out from TWRP File Manager if files are there, and the answer is yes, but when I try to boot up the device it stays on Samsung logo, back into recovery and EFS folder is again empty (so normal it doesn't boot, the EFS folder is empty, so it can't boot).

Flashed many ROMS in years, but it is the fist time I encounter such problem, no one ROM, before, deleted the EFS folder, and I don't understand why the system keeps wiping it out...
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Kadhim7x:
in 6v try to add note 3 aircommand in instillation zip

so we don't have to flash it saretly

and also i thinks if you replace the home screen wallpaper with abstract wallpaper will be great
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] wesamothman:
V6 work is still in progress. There is no plan to add note 3 aircommand to it because in post 10 there is a version if lite.black.aircommand already.

For the wallpaper, share with me Om PM what you have and I will check from theme point if view.

All my roms aroma and scripts don't wipe efs partition. So do not blame my rom. Thousands of people Installed it without issues. You may want to go back and check what rom you came from. Your accusation is not accepted.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] comatrix:
I'm sorry that you don't accept it, but I described exactly what happened, and there is nothing wrong on it.

I come from official Samsung Stock ROM, I don't blame your ROM or you as developer, but I can't deny what happened. And I flashed many ROMS in the past, as you can see also from my signature (and it can be proved if you just see my messages from my profile).

What I did is:

1. Enter recovery TWRP 2.8.5.0 and full wipe (data, dalvik, cache, internal storage, system)

2. Flash the file "wesam.othman_V11.0_XXUFOC2_MD5_1C8D45E4BEA2B473186F79BF9741CD99"

3. Aroma opens, and I choose full wipe again

4. Install rom

5. Select application I needed

6. Reboot system from aroma itself (at the end of installation there is that option)

After that, the device stays on Samsung Logo, but the most important that the sound, when animation plays, is cut out, that means no more info on EFS folder (I had that in previous other Samsung phones).

That is what happened, no more no less. Info on my device on attached file.

Tuesday I will again try yo reflash it, and see what happens again ;)

Edit

Apparently attachment does not work, here it is on web
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] wesamothman:
I did flash v11. And it is ok.

Which firmware you came from?

What is your bootloader version ?

Full wipe in my aroma translates to a another script that wipes cache, dalvik, system and data. It has nothing to do with EFS. Efs is totally a different partition.

What modem you had before?

Was your device rooted before you came to flash v11?

Was your modem patched?

Did you try another twrp recovery version or totally another recovery?

Do you have efs partition backup as .img extension?

I know I am not blamed neither my rom nor you.

But there must be something wrong at your end that caused this.

Process of elimination to know the cause. Then to be solved.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] comatrix:
Here it is the info on my device on image.

And I have always the same modem, never changed in all the device life, and of course the device is rooted, and I have the efs in all the possible ways: Folder, Zip, Image, App Backup and so on.

But the most strange, as said in previous comment, that even if I tried to copy or backup the EFS folder, as soon I tried to boot up, the folder become empty again.

Never seen such issue before :confused:
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Androidwizzard:
For me it sounds like recovery issue, so I'd like to know which exact recovery version you've flashed, info TWRP 2.8.5.0 isn't sufficient - please link or describe.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] comatrix:
Recovery:

- openrecovery-twrp-2.8.5.0-t03g.zip

You can find it at:

- http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/t03g
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Androidwizzard:
OK so far - anyway, go for THIS one as it is improved all around.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] wesamothman:
For me too. It seems a recovery issue possibly. I would recommend as new as 2.8.7.0
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] d2ve:
So, v6 would be using another name? nice.

wesam, how can i lock the display rotation in lock screen. it drove me crazy sometimes....

second, if one day i reset my phone from setting menu, would it be ok? or resetting from twrp is a must?

third, everytime i delete the vrtheme folder, it always return, the gallery is full of small mipmap pictures/icons.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] wesamothman:
You need another keyguard.apk without rotation for you to stop lockscreen rotation. The one from v4 for example.

For vrtheme folder, using root explorer. Go to /data/media/0

And delete it from there.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] ph3nom:
Thanks, i have exactly same questions about rotation in lock screen and vrtheme..

Keep up the great work..

edit

how to put the keyguard? just copy paste it with root explorer?

Also, about the Lollipop theme, does it compatible with V5 lite?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] jackkeylow:
hey wesam, really love the new rom btw, excellent battery life. i just flashed v5 with lollichap theme and then v5 mod pack. i noticed both themes sort of just blended together. but if i flash lollichap again i lose some of the mod pack features. any solution? thanks... id like to go full lollichap with the mod pack features but if it isnt possible ill just go back to stock from my nandroid. i nandroid-ed /system only, hopefully its enough?

edit: restored my /system back and flashed mod pack.. still cant enable lock screen unlock effect.. the option is there but disabled
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] wesamothman:
Yes and set permission 644
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] wesamothman:
Lollichap theme is totally different from black theme. Lollichap theme is for stock roms. Not for Lite.black due to mods inconsistency between the two.

Restoring your system only will overwrite black mods and cause inconsistency too.

The mod pack is only for Lite. Black v5. There is no support for Lollichap theme modding now. Black is chosen by is to be continued due to many reasons we see better.

I advise you to full wipe and install lite.black v5 followed by mod pack.

There you then will have 0 issues.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] surdustef:
What about greyscale color option in power saving setting and remake of keyboard button more darker or s6 fonts in next update?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] wesamothman:
There will be no further updates as a mod.

There will be a new version with a different name dedicated for Lite. Black series.

So far it will have all the features of v5 + mod pack + other mods we are currently working on.

Stay tuned,

This happens with stock rom and other roms too, rooted or not rooted. Please help as I tried almost everything I know but no go.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] wesamothman:
This is already done in lite.black v5 + mod pack.

It seems your issue could be HW or Network APN issue. Try to reset your network
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] vishal1286:
I guess its a hardware issue as network apns are good and i even reset them as per my carrier.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] comatrix:
OK here I am, and I confirm what I said, this is crazy....

Flashed the v11 with TWRP 2.8.7.0 suggested, the flash went ok, when finished to flash the v11 I didn't reboot the phone but I went into file manager, and navigate to the system itself, the EFS Folder was there with all their subfolders (bluetooth, imei, carrier, drm and so on), and I said myself:

- ok everything went fine

I rebooted the phone into system and again animation sound cut out, and I understood the EFS Folder was erased. Returned into TWRP recovery and the EFS Folder was empty as I presumed.

I repeat, this is crazy :eek:

It could be that Samsung has implemented some sort of strategy to avoid flashing custom roms in the last update?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Pavamarea:
This mod for v5 black could be used in v11?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] vishal1286:
I dont think so coz it will mess up the framework.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] wesamothman:
It MAY work. But you will not have full functionality of mods as well as you will mess up the stock and black theme.

And it may not work.

A lot of Jar files have been changed.

Trust me when I say lite.black v5 + mod back is better than v11 stock. Actually not only better, it is THE BEAST.

This gesture invoke APM two times consecutively. Is it intentionally?

Screen Mirroring doesn't work for me with LITE.Black_v5_FOC

I can confirm with LITE.Black_v5_FOC2.

But no one exactly described HOW screen mirroring doesn't work for them till now.

If you mean this thread/post with snapshot of error message from Screen Mirroring: "Unable to start Screen Mirroring because of a hardware issue".

Then this is not my issue. It is different:

I start Screen Mirroring on my Note 2 with LITE.Black_v5_FOC2

I get list of all smart TVs around on Screen Mirroring screen

I select my TV

My TV show/ask me if I would like to enable my phone

I confirm it

My phone connects to TV, see the first attached snapshot

But TV then indefinitely shows Connecting, see the second attached snapshot

So Screen Mirroring somewhat works till the last step for me. I have rather new TV Samsung UE48H6500 from the last year. I have no problems with Screen Mirroring from all other my devices (Moto G, Nexus 7, Flex 2).

I have two questions:

Is there anyone with LITE.Black_v5_FOC2 and working Screen Mirroring?

If Screen Mirroring doesn't work for you, is the behavior the same as I described above or different?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] _jis_:
[MENTION=4579645]wesamothman[/MENTION]: I think that my little bug report could be useful in ongoing debugging of the new ROM version, but it remained unnoticed, so I repeat it.
