I mistakenly erased mine during wipes when going to Rootbox...hope this didnt happen to you. Use rootexplorer to make sure you actually still have backups in your titanium folder.
Yea I move my folder the my external sd that way it doesn't get moved ever. I always know right where it is

hahahahaha NOW YOU TELL ME!!!
well at least my phone is squeaky clean now.
Whoops! Sorry! Haha. I did that after the first time I switched to a 4.2 rom and went searching for the backups. So I decided to make it easy on myself.

good to know. but haven't deleted it yet. and I'm all over the map flashing. aosp to tw. tw to aosp. but it seems the aosp roms already kinda do wierd things to your files. like added a folder. really wanna get some 4.2.2 root box. ill make it happen tonight
Sent from my GT-N7105 using Tapatalk 2
I know what you mean... I can't stay on a rom too long. I was on liquid which liked a lot, but last night new releases were out for the others so I tried out root box again, then paranoid, then I set up jelly beer. Root box is nice, I like it better than jelly beer. I will probably go back unless liquid gets an update. I like using the ones that are updated the most and most up to date.
Sent from my GT-N7105 using xda app-developers app
yeah man. I haven't used jelly beer in awhile. I've flashed it and played but it wasn't my cup of tea. I do love liquid. ran it on my gnex and running it on a s2 and its solid. but rootbox is a beauty. running tw roms right now just cause they are bugless but battery isthe ****s. so time to go back to aosp. goddam addiction I tell ya.

I know a few know about the TW laincher ported to all devices but I thought Id share for those who didnt.
Mainly cause I just found it and was really excited what it did.
It adds a whole bunch of TW goodies like sounds, apps, etc.
I have it running on AOKP and love it.
so hope you enjoy it as well

Nice, kind of ironic given the often debated conversation topic between developers over whether TW development versus AOKP or CM is "original"... Now, given like that" originality, we can put a TW app add on... To make the "originals" look like the real "original"....

Is this for Jellybean, I went to the original thread and the guy said it's only for Gingerbread? As a matter of fact it didn't even say that in the first or 2nd post just the last page, that thread is missing some information.

I just got the sg3 today after having the nexus one last couple years and xda nexus one forum. Loved the n1 but just time to upgrade. I have a lot to learn about the sg3. How do you root the easiest way? Also best idea for long battery life. Any other info I need. Thank you and glad to be here.

Welcome to the S3 family
Easiest way to root?
Download the T-Mobile image from this thread and extract the .tar file
Flash with ODIN.
Or you can choose a different method, but you will have to ODIN custom recovery onto the phone first.
Go to this thread for guides on rooting/flashing, etc.
As for the battery, read this article about battery conditioning.

Well for starters you can look at whats been removed from the debloated rom and debloat yours to match.
Additionally, you can just search these forums as there will likely be multiple threads about whats safe to remove.
Additionally+, you can buy Titanium Backup and freeze the apps one by one. If they dont cause problems when frozen they are safe to remove.

Ok thx
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
Hey Mike,
I would recommend installing a custom recovery, I highly recommend Clockwork mod. Make a backup of your system to be safe, so that you can always restore if needed. Next use a file manager with root permissions, I HIGHLY recommend Root Explorer. Create a folder on your sd card called backup_bloat (or anything really). Go to your app drawer and start jotting down the bloat. I'd recommend getting rid of all the TMobile stuff, as well as most of the samsung apps. Once you have a good idea of what to get rid of, go into your system -> apps folder and look for the same icons. Instead of just deleting the files, use the multi-select option in root explorer to select all the ones you want to get rid of. Once done, move them into the backup_bloat folder. Reboot. Test your device out thoroughly for a day or two. If it works great, you can get rid of the backup_bloat folder. Any errors, and you may have removed something needed by the phone. This is my standard debloat process, and it works well for me without having to install any custom roms.
Hope this helps!

I started a project on my old htc 3d EVO and have been thinking about doing a version for the note 2.
The basis of the project will be to merge more of touchwiz back into miui. Since some versions of miui are built on top of touchwiz then adding back in most of the functions are easy sort of. I personally don't like the miui launcher at all but the rest of the ROM I like. The touchwiz launcher/functions are pretty nice for my taste.
Anyone interested in helping/using something of this nature?

Starting work on the project tomorrow after work. I believe the latest miui release for the att note 2 is touchwiz. I will start it as a port to ours then play with adding in the TW launcher and features. The goal is to have as much TW (dialer for ## codes) as possible only keeping the settings and status bar from miui.

Alright guys this is where I sit on this project. I have been using Team Noobs 3.1.11 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2063126 as a base and JellyBomb Domination for the TouchWiz parts http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1957773 , for now although if I continue to use it I will ask for there permission before anything goes public. I will be playing with it for the next few hours and then see if I can get something out for a SELECT FEW TESTERS. I have a couple already lined up and if anyone else wants PM me. I want testers who have the Sprint Note 2 (although if you are flashed to another provider thats fine also). Being able to provide logcats and have active service is also required. Thanks for the interest and help in getting this going.
Okay I have been working on this and so far I got touchwiz and a few other things working. When I try adding everything I lose service so I am going to showly add things back in.

Info for my testers.
1. At the end of install uncheck the reboot option or installer will freeze requiring a battery pull
2. phone.apk will force close a few times then will work properly
3. the data toggle does not work
4. If you have no data do *#*#4636#*#* and change wcdma to CDMA(prl) or LTE.

There's a ROM around here already that is MIUI non AOSP as opposed to AOSP if that's what you meant.
I'm posting this here because the PA4.3 thread has been closed and I don't want to clutter the 4.4 thread asking about an old rom.
I've been lurking for awhile. I have experience with rooting/flashing plenty on the Evo4g (including some AOSP). On my Note 2, I've stuck to TW roms on my Note 2. Im looking to hop into the AOSP world and I think this is the ROM I want to try (the kitkat version doesn't have features/stability from what I've read). However, I have a couple questions.
1) Of course I will nandroid my TW rom. If I decide I want to go back, is it as simple as restoring my backup? Or are there additional steps going from AOSP back to TW nandroid?
2) I see various versions/builds & kernels listed in this thread? Can someone please suggest a reliably stable build/kernel for me to start out with that has everything working?
Sent from my SPH-L900 using xda app-developers app
Hey, I've been running paranoid 3.99 for a while and it has great battery life, even on stock rom, you can use plasma kernel with it or Devil kernel, your choice, flash the latest stable and you should be fine, also look for the SD card restore zip if you ever go back to TW you are going to need it, its buried in to the cm 10 thread just look for it, also make sure you get stweaks from play store and if you have issues send me a pm and I will be glad to help you, good luck!

Let me know what file you need and I'll upload it to my dropbox, you don't need a SD card, just get the room zip in the root of your internal SD, wipe or do a factory reset in twrp/cwm flash the zip and gapps... Reboot... Do the initial setup and restore your apps or start from scratch if you prefer... Good luck!
