It's the mighty dwitherell! I knew I'd eventually see you in the note 4 section m8 [emoji1]
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] sandman7793:
[MENTION=253382]Bri[/MENTION] Question. I know it's too soon to know, but a update is going to be pushed out to the note 4 in the next few weeks for the gear vr. Problem is our devices aren't official. So when that's pushed you think you can make a flashble to make compatible with our lovely DK ROM. I'm expecting to get it as soon as it drops from oculus/Samsung. Wife already has it planned for me.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] bri315317:
Hopefully tomorrow you will feel a bit better! I've had it before, It takes a long time to recover from.

When an update comes from TMO, I will be prompt in updating the base. To the best of my abilities anyways. :)
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] sandman7793:
Thanks Brian. I been following it pretty close. The mobile SDK integration into the games for the VR have broken the games on there forums. There oculus groups response was a update for the note series will be released. But it also might be directly from Samsung to be honest. I guess once the VR is hooked to the phone, it's supposed to download specific apps and such. Guess cross the bridge when it comes. I just can't handle stock phone. Lol. I guess you know this about me already though. Seeing that I bought a note 4 for AT&T and couldn't wait, so I bought a second one from T-Mobile and the first ones sitting in the drawer in the box.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] bri315317:

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] G1toEVO4G:
how do i get rid of the battery icon ? thanks in advance
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] bri315317:
in the 3minit battery app, settings untick the box to show battery. :)
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] G1toEVO4G:
thank u so much for the quick reply. Asolutely loving the rom , first thing i flashed on my 4 hour old note 4

---------- Post added at 12:42 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:34 AM ----------

how do i get the stock battery icon back ?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] bri315317:
In 2.0, which will be here on friday. I give you the option of using the stock battery instead of 3minit. On the current release, sorry but that is not an option.

Happy to hear you are enjoying it, If yo liked 1.2, 2.0 is gonna be like a whole new phone all over again. :cool:
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] G1toEVO4G:
okay cool , thanks again. lookin forward to 2.0 !
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] TechnRom:
Is 2.0 beta dirty flashable if coming from 1.2?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] bri315317:
No sir, a lot has changed and will require a clean flash.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] AriaNoob:
Loving 2.0 so far! Amazing work brian! Soooo many tweaks and options for customization...and I have yet to find a bug :)

Thank you sir!
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] semakawa:
Thanks [MENTION=3105374]bri315317[/MENTION] for your time and hard work that you put to make people happy. With your rom and starkissed kernel i have a very very good baterry life. Waiting for 2.0 Thanks once again. Have a nice day.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] bri315317:
This is good news [emoji16]

I am happy to hear it. I think you will be extremely happy with 2.0 [emoji1]
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] bri315317:
Well it's Friday for me and I have 5 days off. :)

Hope everyone has a great and safe weekend. Beta Testing is going well and will be here on Friday. I have already started on a dark theme as it is the quicker one for me to do. A light theme will be coming very quickly afterwards.

Brian

I always new Santa was real...just couldn't find him till now! I cant wait to get my hands on 2.0!! Keep up the great work Brian:good:
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] EasyE75:
Rocking V2 trying to get the wheels to come off, lol. Thanks bri l, V2 is truly amazing, great work.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] shaggyskunk:
It's already Friday... In Sydney Australia - Yup - Brian has done a Brilliant job on V2.0 - What's more - No hoops to jump for us Canucks - Just Factory Reset - Advanced - Wipe System - Data and Caches manually - Flash Rom and Set up - The best part is Running this puppy! ?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] OptimusOBrien:
So if I'm understanding this we can just flash like we use to on the Note 3 then?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] shaggyskunk:
Yup - Don't have to flash a different kernel in recovery - Just a FULL CLEAN Flash :)

If you see any posts by turilo - Be sure to thank him - for this straight forward method for us Canadians to Flash this Tmo Rom :)
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] OptimusOBrien:
This is fantastic! I cant wait to use this.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] faslane:
Everyone is in for a real treat with DK 2.0. it's being tested and you'll all love it. Make those restorable Nandroids now and out them somewhere safe just in case. This WILL require a clean flash so make those backups and be prepared. Soon...I believe Brian is in schedule for Friday pending no issues in beta.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] TX_MADE_TX_RAZED:
No LTE Service

I cant seem to get any LTE data at all for some odd reason. I have tried every APN setting possible and still nothing. Im in Houston, TX which is one of the biggest VoLTE city's in the US so i dont know what could be causing it. If anyone has any suggestions or any help at all with this it will be greatly appreciated, Thanks.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Dirtylarry11:
when? After you flash the rom? on the 2.0 version? did you try registering on your network? need more info
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] dawheat:
Damn - I was playing around in the DK ROM control options in 2.0 and it bootlooped my phone. Reflashing DK 2.0 doesn't solve it - basically it doesn't get any further than the initial boot screen.

I'm at work so it looks like I'll need to wait till home to use Odin to return phone to stock.

<edit> Did a clean flash and it was fine. I was going through all the different ROM control options and one of them rebooted the phone, resulting in the endless bootloops.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] chakra:
When it comes out to the public V2.0 is a must to clean flash.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] TX_MADE_TX_RAZED:
Im on the 1.2 version and i clean installed the rom. The only time i get the LTE is when i restart the phone. As soon as i make my first call it drops to 4G and stays there. I flashed the Darthstalker rom as well and it does the same thing. The only time my VoLTE works is wen i restore my nandroid backup of my stock rom. Im just now getting back into this so im tryin to re-learn all this stuff.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] chakra:
You dont have a nandroid backup of 1.2?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] dawheat:
No I got lazy since I never had any issues with DK on my Note 3 and Note 4. Stupid move and lesson learned - always follow all steps.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] faslane:
One thing I noticed is the kernal in DK 2.0 Beta boot looped me big time so I had to flash 2.0 and restore the stock kernal from my 1.2.6 nandroid so if this happens to you on beta test pls report any boot looping.

This is where a nandroid saved my butt...make one guys....you may need it.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] shaggyskunk:
Just to let you know - Getting a bootloop isn't a certainty - I had no issues Flashing V2.0 on my Canadian SM-N910W8 - Smooth sailing all the way - No separate kernel flash required!
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] keitht:
I usually prefer stock kernels because custom kernels always seem to cause weird issues. At least in my experience. Can we take the stock kernel and place it in the 2.0 ZIP before flashing? If so, how is this done? And is there anything in 2.0 that would require custom kernel?

Thanks.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] semakawa:
Hi . Can you please send me a download link for v2.0? I like to test your rom on my canadian N4. If not, i can wait for a friday release. Thanks once again for your wonderful rom and have a nice day.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] dawheat:
Does anyone know if there is a TWRP flashable version of the stock kernel? It would be nice to fix my phone now.

Heres another one Brian. Keep up the dedication man and thanks for all your hard work.

You have quit making me follow you to different forums. Lol
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] faslane:
I had to yes but it could be fixed if an issue for others. Were still testing. I had to make a nandroid and then flash 2.0 but restore JUST the boot.IMG from 1.2.6 so its possible but not sure what final plans are from Brian. I was the only one with issues, we'll have to see what he's going to finalize.

I do t care either way. I don't over clock so meh. As long as it works I'm cool.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] dawheat:
Thanks man - so my issue is a bit odd. If I reboot from the phone, then it goes into bootloop. However if i pull battery and wait say 15-20 seconds, then it boots up properly.

I'll try the stock kernel and see if it fixes it.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] sandman7793:
I've tried three different kernels on 1.2 each time I've experienced problems. It takes a day in most cases though. I always end up back on stock.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] keitht:
I am part of the beta group but can't load it right now as I use my phone as a daily driver for work. But I am preparing for tomorrow night when I will load it up. It looks like I can just take the boot.img from stock and replace it in the 2.0 ROM ZIP so I only need to worry about one flash that will have stock kernel. Just need Brian or anyone with knowledge of 2.0 ROM if there is anything changed that requires the custom ROM or if that is a bad idea! :)

---------- Post added at 03:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:10 PM ----------

Yeah, it ain't broke so I do not really want to fix it. :)
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] dawheat:

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] freakyd9984:

---------- Post added at 01:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:12 PM ----------

Same here. im testing 2.0 but with different kernal but as I say, not sure what final kernal will be in 2.0 yet. Mine looped but didn't try battery pull. Just flashed stock into 2.0

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] keitht:
Any difference in Antutu and/or Quadrant or are we mostly looking at visual candy?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] shaggyskunk:
If you ask me - Antutu and Quadrant are "visual candy"... The Rom on the other hand - Is Quality with loads of tweaks and options ;)

Among the options - is the ability to tweak the kernel - So if "candy" is a factor - People can squeeze whatever they have the kernel knowledge to do so ;)
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] EasyE75:
I think this kernel will improve and become a beast, this is just the initial release i got high hope on it.

I've been running 2.0 since this afternoon and it is fantastic. Somehow it feels like a step above 1.2 in performance/smoothness.

- The extra status bar options are great, though a touch confusing on their 'default' status. For many of them, I had to click them on and off to get them off.

- Having things already configured is great (like secure storage off)

- Installing all my apps (except wanam) from a TiBu backup from 1.2 was painless and successfully completed on the first run

Besides the kernel issue which was solved for me by using the stock kernel, it's been rock solid for me.

Q - has anyone else on 2.0 had issues when rebooting? I did a clean install but nothing solved it besides using the stock kernel. Might be good to determine if this is an issue with the kernel before mass publishing 2.0.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] bri315317:
Agreed, this is something I will address before going public tomorrow.

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] usmcxdroid:
Thanks for the links bro, but to be honest i havent been digging into decompiling apks or getting into the Android theming world until recently , i spent years on, iOS theming because thats how i started my smartphone journey with the iphone 3g back in the days and for years i taught myself how to work photosop and started making little changes here and there to my iphone until eventually i knew iOS in and out and was able to do full themes, with dialers, icons, walls, keyboards you name it but when i came over to Android i was sooooo clueless as to how to get into the system and theme that so i was limited to just walls and icons and got frustrated even with that as i tried to put together an icon pack apk and couldnt even do that lol so your info its appreciated but a little over my head right now as im just learning and now this lovely device has all these .qmg files and asct and webp files etc that i never saw on my G2 or G3 so its all new here. I would love to be able to theme apks eventually but i tried before going to school today to theme the stock messages apk and was able to decompile and made the changes to the images but couldnt get it to build back up, it just kept giving me aome erros, anyway sorry for the long posting guys.

[MENTION=253382]Bri[/MENTION] the 2.0 version its been flawless so far, really really smooth and snappy, love the nav bar and the additions of flashlight etc, battery life its been great too even though is still too soon for a more accurate reporting, but this 2.0 is lovely, thanks a million bro.

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] aaldiar:
Brian,

Heads up, the MIUI Battery bar mod seems to be a little vertically challenged. I can't really pick the color I would like (white) in the HSV or RGB and the HEX codes for colors don't stick. I DLed the app from the playstore (made by the same DEV) and the ratios work as well as the settings for the colors. I'll be messing with this 2.0 ROM all night and keep you posted on things I see. So far so good. I'm loving all the settings and options so far.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] bigmase23:
Finally got 2.0 set up! Gotta say, Brian did his thing! This update is butter! Appreciate your work sir!

Quick question to anyone that is available. When using clean install and wipe everything. What is best way to restore apps and games while keeping the game progress saved?

Is Titanium Backup still the best route to go?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] TechnRom:
Alot of games now sync with your Google play, titanium used to be my friend but it can cause issue, just make a nandroid for sure.

---------- Post added at 02:08 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:04 AM ----------

2.0 has so much customization and fixes Alot of issues that Samsung seemed to ignore.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] hypersonicx:
To guarantee a smooth experience I may redownload all my apps from play store and restore my sms messages with MyBackup. I was thinking titanium could interfere with the modifications the dev made. I usually restore apps with data using Titanium Backup.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] shaggyskunk:
I've been using TB to restore ONLY User apps and data - I haven't ever had any issues - I'm sure that you know this - But NEVER restore any System apps... Ever!

Oh and Yeah - Today is Friday ☺
