Have u rooted ur rom? if u manually deodex ur rom now, u might not be fully deodex all apps. I would recommend u to flash a custom ROM for simplicity. All the custom ROM here are deodexed.

Sure you can.....revert I mean!!
As a matter of fact, you can revert to exactly what you have at this moment in time.
Have you got ClockworkMod Recovery....
if not, you must install.
When you have CWM.. you just got to make a Nandroid Backup...which is a complete copy/image of your current setup.
This can be restored at any time, bringing your device back to what is your current setup!!!

My friend, I don't know where you get the idea that there is no good rom
How do you come to that conclusion???
Please tell us, as you are obviously an expert!!!
What are your conclusions, having flashed numerous ROM's?? no doubt.....
You should be careful how you phrase what you say.....
you probably mean no offence....
but you have just offended the entire Voluntary Developer Community for this device.....
as in guys/gals working for us for no money,
think again!!!!

Ohh my bad i didnt say it right will i meant i didnt find any rom that meets my needs thats all.
Sorry i think iam a noobie not an expert though i know too much about computer and android but not that good to be a dev.
And iam sorry i sure mean no offence....but you know what i mean like lets say....arco's rom is very nice except the most important thing to me is isnt working (the cam).
I really need the cam and i will want to have a an ics rom or a good rom and install an ics theme on it...!!!
So again am sorry I DIDNT MEAN ANY OFFENCE..!!
So after all can you suggest me a rom that you tested and like it ...?

[q] ics rom t989

I looked up at the Android Development fourm but I got a little confused
Right now my SGS2 T989 is with T-mobie's Rom which sucks.
I would like a easy explanation how to update it to ICS rom with RTL fix (Im from israel so I need hebrew to work on this device, RTL)
Probbally You will just say Im a jackass and tell me to go and look for guide but since its not my mother-langugh I would like you to give me a guide that will surlly work..

Try tdjs
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium

U need to root your phone first the development fourm have sticky with detailed instructions. Then flash your favorite rom keep in mind these ics rom are based on leaks they will be buggy I recommend darkside rom. I don't know of any hebrow instructions but if you wrote this thread then u can figure it out. Good luck. And try to post this in the Q& A former u will have a better luck

Ok, we get it. Your a TDJ fanboy, noone cares. Now for your question OP, this is the guide I used when i rooted/flashed for the first time. It's made for the T989D (telus) version of the phone but also has instructions for the T989 as well. Give it a try.
http://androidforums.com/galaxy-s2-...d-ultimate-root-optimization-guide-steps.html

Use this to root:
Here
Use this to install a ROM:
Here
Both have Step by Step instructions with a video to help.

I don't why people always say they need to root first, it's BS.
All you do is use odin to flash CWM. No need to flash SU if you are gonna flash a custom rom. I just think people don't know what rooting means or does.
All you need is a custom recovery like CWM, then flash a rom.
If you are staying stock sure, flash cwm and then SU to root it.

Please don't confuse the OP. I mean sure he can do what you said, but rooting first is a sort of standard that everyone follows.

Android 4.3 on Korean Note 2?

Hi guys!
First of all I am sorry for posting in this forum but I believe Korean Note 2 is similar in many aspect to N7105 and also there are devs who can read and maybe come up with something.
I have a question for you. Has anyone tried an Android 4.3 custom ROM on e250s (Korean Note 2) ? I am currently on 4.1.2, a combination of Milan 3.0 and Milan 4.0 (I think this ROMs are also for N7105 because in About device section my phone appears to be a N7105 after flashing), with some stock kernel and cwm. I have tried a few 4.3 ROMs for N7105 (CM 10.2, Beanstalk, Illusion) but all get stuck at the boot logo (Samsung Galaxy Note 2). I even tried different kernels, compatible with 4.3 (SJKernel and NeKo) but again, with no luck.
Do you have a solution, link, idea?
Thanks in advance guys!

Any links?

Vibration issue
Hi guys!
Is anyone else having issues with vibrations when using a N7105 ROM (with Android 4.2.2 or 4.3)? I mean the phone does not vibrate at all.
Do you know a fix or something?
Thanks!

Hi. This is the link to the boot converter.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=36885456
All you have to do is flash this zip file from cwm after you first flash the ROM.
I have tried Illusion and PAC-MAN ROMs (N7105, Android 4.3) and also MIUI v5 for N7105 (Android 4.2.2) and all work fine.
There may be some ROMs (PAC-MAN) that give you "error 7" when flashing. You have to change the first line from META-INF/com/google/android/update script.
How I do that. I prefer to change the ROMs extension from zip to apk, then unzip it using APK Tool and go to the file, change extention to .txt and delete the first line (the one that starts with assert), thus the first line becoming the one with "show progress" or "mount". After that I zip it again with APK Tool and sign the ROM with ApkSign. I do not know why, I cannot sign it with APK Tool. After that, the flashing process should go fine. You have to install the right GApps for the ROM you are being flashing and then the boot converter from the link.
The only issue I have found was the absence of vibrations, but I managed to get it back by flashing Thor Kernel for Note 2, like cbeta1111 and eggymustdie told me. So huge thanks to them.
Good luck! Hope you will manage to install the desired ROM. In my opinion, PAC-MAN ROM is the best so far, with many, many options from CM, AOKP and Paranoid Android ROMs.

Thanks for detail response
I am using TWRP touch custom recovery. would this process work for TWRP?
I did not get second part about changing first line from META-INF/com/google/android/update script. where is that? You mean first line of custom 4.3/4.2 ROMs we are going to install?
and also do call recoding work in 4.3/4.2 PAC ROMS because i actually use this function and multi windows ?

This is dev forum, not Q&A. All questions should go in questions forum.

Hi. It should definitely work with TWRP recovery as it installs like a normal zip file ROM.
The update script file is located in the ROM. You have to unzip it and go to that location as I have said in the anterior post.
Call recording works but I did not figured yet how to play the file after it is saved. It saves the file as a .3gpp but I think the problem is with Android 4.3 codecs.
EDIT: It works if you try to play it from the built in file manager. Not with Root Explorer. Do not know why.
Multiwindows work great in PAC-MAN ROM:

Hello man.
Did you apply all the wypes? Generally this is the most common issue...
Talking about OTAs, if I'm not wrong, depends on the custom which you are using. I know that cyanogen offers a kind of OTA, but considering that we only have the unnoficial one, I'm not so sure.

If the bug is fixed ,do the dev post the bug free rom link where we have previously downloaded it the first time, or he post it in the comment ? where he announced the bug free rom ?

Generally the devs put the updates on the first page of topic and also change the links.
It's not a rule, but they commonly put a changelog (or a link to it) saying what changed/fixed... Which custom rom are you saying? CM11?

You have to download the lastest version of the ROM and then flash it without wiping data.

Samsung SPH-L900 KOT49H.L900VPUCOH3 Rooting & ROMs

What is the safest way to root my Samsung Galaxy Note 2 ( SPH-L900 ) KOT49H.L900VPUCOH3 running 4.4.2 ?
Any suggestions on the best ROM to use ? The phone is currently 100% stock.

The rooting process is covered at the thread I've linked below.

As for which ROM to use... I like to stay stock but with root, no knox and deodexed. If you favor AOSP, there's many to choose from in the development sections.

Thank you ... worked perfectly on OH3 ! Took your suggestion on staying with root/no knock/deodexed. Know of any fix for the extra spaces bug with text suggestion ?

Hmm, that's strange. I just downloaded it and flash it and didn't encounter any errors. You can toggle signature check off in Philz Touch Recovery from the Install Zip menu.

Thanks disabling signature check worked. And a huge thank you for posting a fix for that extremely annoying bug - it works perfectly !
