Hey guys just wanted to say love this rom. Battery life is great performance is great. Just started getting lag for the first time not sure what it is.

The only real weird thing I've noticed is when someone calls it does weird things where I wake the phone, and it stops ringing while it goes to the lock screen. And sort of lags to bring up the call window.

That said. I need to use my best buy warantee before two years are up to get my amoled screen replaced, as it has significant burn in from the top bar, and keypad.

I know I should odin a stock rom, but is there an easy way to revert back to the stock recovery?

Need to make sure I can get my device waranteed.

Thanks guys can't wait to try the update!!!!

I've actually had a problem like in skype where I try to send a photo that's on my phone, and I get the error message. File must be on device.

Not sure if that's a kitkat issue or a rom issue.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jah_rankin:
Same issues here in Gallery unable to view photos in Google drive and Facebook photos are unavailable in gallery sync settings.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] badvcr:
There is an app called "Folder mount" in the app store install that, open it and it will say that it has detected and error or something like that, it ask if you want to fix it, click yes then reboot... that fix the problems for me.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] tx_dbs_tx:
I never had any sd card issues on 1.0 not the music skipping problem. Not sure what's causing it for you guys.

On another note, I have put together a custom S5 version of Rwilco's Mostly Stock. It's about 95% done. I just need to do a little more testing and rearrange default shortcuts &settings. This has been my personal project just as this ROM was for Rwilco's. It is 99.9% stock themed but it has some cool mods including S5 apps, S5 SystemUI, S5 Launcher, S5 settings, etc. I did the mods to the S5 SystemUI for the flashlight toggle as well as the display menu Torchlight option. New 4G and 3G network icons. S5 keyboard, list and grid view for settings menu. Everything works great. I'll send you a link [MENTION=4513677]rwilco12[/MENTION] so you can take a look when you get time. You can maybe add some final fixes/touches if this is something you would be willing to add to your OP. I'm out of town till Monday but I'll see if I can get it uploaded before then and I'll send you the link. My goal is to share a fully functional S5 Feature version of this ROM that doesn't require any fixes. ..
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] fuzzer:
found and fixed the "error" but didn't fix my problem. It is weird. I have my camera set to save to sd card. All pictures I take go into the original DCIM/Camera folder, where ALL my pictures are, but the gallery ONLY sees the picture I took since upgrading, also tried formatting and copied my dcim folder back to the sd card, and even the pictures taken since the upgrade are missing, only pictures taken after the format are showing up....
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] tx_dbs_tx:
I just got back home from a busy weekend out of town visiting family. I took lots of pics and long videos and used my phone exclusively to play my music through my factory stereo using a 3.5mm audio cable. I had not one single issue with any features. Not one hiccup playing dozens of mp3 converted cd's for 6 hour trip both ways. Rwilco's Mostly Stock 1.0 with my own personalized S5 features as mentioned above. I wouldn't know where to begin finding the sdcard issue you guys mentioned. Sounds like you've already done all the necessary steps in troubleshooting. Very odd..
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] rwilco12:
Hey everyone,

I've been looking over the music and gallery issues and although I don't have a fix I'm working on rolling back to a slightly modified version of 1.0. No promises but hopefully by next Saturday I'll have it up for everyone.

If anyone is wanting a more S5 type ROM [MENTION=1503720]tx_dbs_tx[/MENTION] is cooking something good! I haven't played with his ROM yet but if it's anything like his other work it'll be stable and awesome! I'm looking forward to it!

Nice job on this ROM [MENTION=4513677]rwilco12[/MENTION]. I have been running the NE2 v1.0 for a few days now and it is very smooth. Haven't found any issues. I have been following the thread and see that others had skips in music playback in v1.1 as I did too, so I am running 1,0 for a few days to see if I get the same result. Great job! :cool:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] tx_dbs_tx:
I will upload it as it is right now. It's working great but I "think" there might be a memory leak and possibly something is draining my battery. I would like some testers to wear it out and I would like help in finding the two possible issue I just mentiuoned. Otherwise I like this setup a LOT. Uploading now.... I will share a link as soon as it's up. [MENTION=1052947]rwilco[/MENTION], feel free to look into the issues I mentioned. I could use the help. Thanks

Most recoveries allow you to partition a d format the sdcard. While partitioning is not what you need but it does allow user a way to change format type.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] DarkAngel:
I'm still rocking v1 with no problems except the call delay as I don't want to give this version up because of the theming I mixed together . For some reason I got the MMS issue after switching back and forth from Community Rom. I thought it had to be something simple that messed with it so I tried a couple good wipes and that fixed the problem. I did have to do some file swapping & wiping with both Philz and TWRP though. I can not remember if this was an issue before at one time where one Recovery would format/clear the phone a certain way for certain Roms to work properly but I do remember Community Rom requiring using Philz 6.07.

I just don't see why it would be an issue in this rom.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] tx_dbs_tx:
PM's with link sent to you guys as well. Let me know what you think. I'd like to get the defaults all finished up but until then just setup how you like and give it a go for a few days. You can change the grid view in settings menu to list view for those who don't like the grid view. The 4G icon and data flow arrows is my own personal touch as well. Music player works perfectly, so there's no hiccups playing music as far as I have tested. The pull up fake jap works fine but it has a minor bug where if you are currently on the home page and press home button once, it will pull up the fake jap/currently set app. That needs fixing. Report any other issues by PM please. Thanks,.

Disable 360 degree rotation

Could somebody please tell me how to disable 360 degree rotation on this rom?

Thanks!

mike
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] tx_dbs_tx:
Other than the stock "auto rotate screen" setting in Display settings, I didn't know of a 360 degree rotation mod in this rom. Some apps have 360 degree rotation but as far as the launcher in this rom it does not. Correct me if i'm wrong.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] resarfekim:
The OP mentions "- 360 Degree Rotation enabled" as a feature. So, I'm hoping it's disable-able. The launcher itself does not go upside-down (though Nova does), but all of my apps do.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] rwilco12:
Downloading now and giving it a whirl! :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] tx_dbs_tx:
OK. Then in that case there's no actual "switch" to disable the 360 degree rotation. It was a mod done to enable it and I doubt there was an actual switch added to settings for the user to enable/disable it. I never really paid attention to it but apparently I have no complaints. LOL. Sorry I can't be of more help, I'm running a custom version of this rom and my launcher is different (S5).
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] rwilco12:
It's kind of convoluted... A better description for the OP would have been 360 Degree Rotation Not Blocked. By default the default code allows for 360 degree rotation but it is app dependent. When building an app you specify in one of two or three ways the layout and orientation of the activity that the user sees. The standard is anything goes but they can override it to be locked to portrait or landscape. If the application forces a specific rotation the ROM doesn't magically allow it.

To turn off screen rotation you can disable it using the quickpanel setting in the dropdown. Doing this doesn't stop an app that forces a specific orientation though.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] tx_dbs_tx:
OK. Cool! I think it's working great for me and I've been on it since last week. Only 1% batterey drain overnight unplugged from charger. I would like to see the default work spaces done (maybe you could do that?) and maybe check for any possible memory leaks. Other than that I think it's a good daily. The flashlight toggle was very tricky (KK is slightly different than the original method by Cnexus) and I had to fix the icons because they were somebody else's and they where not right so I resized them and they're very close but still not perfect enough for me (will fix them later). Pressing the home button while on the home page causes the fake jap/custom app to launch and I want to disable that somehow. I left the team credits in SecSettings but I need to change a couple things there later on.

It's just a concept for a basic S5 feature rom that just works... not too little not too much. I didn't want to add things that wouldn't work properly because in my opinion everything needs to work right or I can't sleep at night. LOL.

RW 1.0 S5 Test ROM link is down

Sorry but my Dropbox link apparently had too much bandwidth so the link has been shutdown by Dropbox and I don't have anywhere else to upload it to or I would. I think enough people have downloaded it anyway, so if those people think it's worth continuing then we'll just leave it up to [MENTION=4513677]rwilco12[/MENTION] to decide if he wants to do anything with it or not. After all this is his ROM thread and I don't care to start a new thread for a ROM because it's a full time job and I just can't do it by myself nor have the time to do what needs to be done to properly support a ROM and it's forum thread at this time.

Does anyone have the Test Rom? I could find a way to host it or even set up a read-only Bittorrent Sync link for easier downloading.

EDIT: And by 'easier' I mean not constrained by a third party hosting service, the community's bandwidth would be the pipes.

Ok I was poking around and was looking at your 1.2 beta build you have for 10-8, installed it, got to say man im extremely impressed sir, the sound issue is gone, I even installed the sound fix for MK4 and dude this thing sounds and running great so far dude......:)

Installation instruction

Hello, guys!

After reading all the posts, I've got the following question on how to install the rom:

I saw the post that NE2.tar must be flashed before this rom when you came from 4.1.2.

Since I am in the LORJAY589's MK4 Rom, do I need to do the same thing first?

After then, I can flash Rwilco12's Mostly Stock NE2?

Thanks for any tips.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] tx_dbs_tx:
If you re running a MK4 ROM then I would assume you have already odin flashed the MK4 wifi patch or have already taken the MK4 and/or NE2 OTA... otherwise coming from any rom pre 4.3 ROM would cause wifi to not work unless you have taken the MK4 or NE2 OTA. So with this said, it sounds like you can go ahead and flash this ROM normally. Just nandroid and do full wipes first. If you're using TWRP recovery it needs to be the 2.8 version (which can only be found on one of the last few pages in their their thread) otherwise use Phil's recover 6.07.9 or newer.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] hhgreg:
Thanks.

Thank you for your reply.

Unfortunately, I did NE2.tar flash from Rwilco12's website (Root > Files > Devices > Samsung Galaxy Note II (SPH-L900) > Stock ROMs > NE2).

It seems OK to work except that knox void is set to 1.

Is it normal?

After flashing the rom, is my phone rooted?

I would like to use Tasker for some automation work.

Thanks again for any help.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] hhgreg:
Knox warranty void

Thanks for the detailed reply.

Now, I have rooted Rwilco12's NE2 rom.

But "Knox warranty void" is set to 1.

Can I still flash the custom rom in the future?

That's my concern.

Thanks in advance.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Doc50000:
Are there any OC kernel's that work with this rom, thanks :D
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] tx_dbs_tx:
Knox Warranty only effects Samsung warranty so unless your phone is still under factory warranty it doesn't matter that it's triggered. Once it's triggered it can't be undone as far as I know. But who cares about that anyway? the phone is out of warranty for almost every Note II owner out there. You can flash whatever rom you want now and in the future. You have nothing to be concerned about..

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] rwilco12:
There appear to be issues with the latest version of SuperSU and compatibility with v1.1. I would recommend not taking the SuperSU update for now.

Just curious... For those of you on v1.0 still, do you have the same issues with the latest SuperSU update?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] guycan:
Yep I'm on 1.1 so that is the case even try su 213 and only some apps get grant su so nand back which has 202 and it fine will stick with 202 not updating

I'm on 1.0 and have had the issue with updating SuperSU as well.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] hhgreg:
Reporting the same issue

Same here for SU update.

I am on v1.1 and rolled back to older SU now.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] spodemaster:
Update on weirdness.

I'm still on version 1.0 but need to probably reinstall.

I made the mistake of allowing superSU to update and chose the option to let the os handle it instead of CWM.

Now root doesn't work, I've tried installing the zip via recovery.

I've tried repairing root via philz recovery, then installing via playstore

then again trying philz root repair, then install via zip.

Root doesn't work anymore.

The first weird issue I noticed that let me know root was dead was WeChat stopped working application manager was reporting it was using 467gb of data :|

So I guess I'm looking at trying v1.1

Hey does it have flashlight mode?

Otherwise this rom has been one of the best I've used on the GN2 so far!!!! Thanks a million.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] lvlrdka22:
Before you try wiping and installing 1.1, try just flashing 1.0 over without wiping (or copying the relevant root files over from the 1.0 zip, then fixing permissions). That worked for me.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] pfroyjr:
Yes the SU update causes loss of root. This is the case with all versions of Rwilco's ROM, Tx's version as well as community ROM. Set play store to never update apps automatically and update the ones you want without updating SU.

My two cents: don't dirty flash or try moving root files to get root back. Do a clean wipe and install and as much of a pain as it can be; don't restore apps and data from TBU. Any shortcut is a possibly to cause added frustration when it fails.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] unkellsam:
Excellent rom. Rock solid, clean, and fast. Thanks op!

In the past android versions, I was always able to use Hangouts and Samsung messaging simultaneously, with messages

being viewable in both and the ability to send messages from either application. I noticed that in this version, you can only use one or the other, and have to set one as the "default" messaging app, which disables the other. Any workarounds to this? I liked being able to use both.

Root not working

Hello,

I flashed from stock NE2 to this and everything went smooth. The only issue i have it seems root in not working the SuperSU app is installed but when i click it nothing happens. I used root checker and it states this device is not rooted. I even tried to manually root in TWRP 2.8 and still nothing. any ideas ?

I also tried the tool kit method and nothing it installs superSu and busybox but busybox wont install gives error about permission

Search feature on this thread keeps giving me error

Any help will be appreciated

Thank You

One of three things:

1. Either a reflash of the ROM will bring it back

2. Manually place the SU Files in their respective locations via recovery manually ( worked for me )

3. Flash 1.94 and then manually install the 2.01 or 2.02 SU apk..

Can you please elaborate on step 2. Like location and which exact files?

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] TADitto:
Not sure where you're getting your info but this ROM is fantastic. No issues for me what so ever just as long as you don't update superSU. Update superSU and yes you'll lose root but that's not a ROM issue. This ROM as been my DD since it came out and it runs flawlessly.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] tx_dbs_tx:
I was about to say the same thing. This rom does not have buku problems. You either misunderstood what you read or was given False information. The losing root problem is most likely what you're referring to that TADitto already mentioned.
