What did you do to your phone today? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II

Stealing this idea from another forum I'm on, what have you done to your phone today?
I redid some theming, and played with some system tuner settings.

Hacked a local bank. Transferred a couple grand to my account.

Used it as a "webcam" over a video call with Skype to watch/record what the gears where doing on my robot.
A calculator for dosage calculations of intradermal injections because I forgot mine at home.
But I guess that's not what I did too it, but rather with it.
Too it: made sure my selected apps with modified data were up to date. Backed up calls/SMS
.. Was thinking about jumping on 4.2 tonight, but I spent too much time writing an essay on the clinical structure of a local health care system. Bed time.

[Q] System/app

I would like to delete the stock HTC/Android music players and use Winamp only. Can I put Winamp into system/app and use it as the default music player? Is there any special way to do it and will there be any issues? Thanks in advance.
You can use it as default without deleting the stock player. Removing the stock music app could cause issues, so if you want to try it, I'd either back up the app with Titanium Backup (or freeze it) or make a nandroid backup first. To freeze apps - and possibly backup system apks - you need the Pro version of TB or another app that will do the same.
After removing the stock music player, if you do so successfully, it isn't necessary to move Winamp to /system/app.

Thanks plainjane, you always have my back. The reason I ask is I don't like a lot of different apps that do the same thing on my phone. If removing it might cause issues I'll just freeze them. I do have TB pro. Thanks again. Off the topic but, would you know why my participated topics are not showing up on the xda app on my EVO?

Mine don't show either, now that you mention it. I use Tapatalk but I've purchased the XDA app, so I'll download it & check there in a sec. I've never used the "participated" tab, though. I just go to profile and then posts if I want to check stuff I've recently posted.
If freezing doesn't cause any issues, you can then remove it safely. I'd make a backup of it in TB though, just in case. And since you already have the app, you can easily convert Winamp to a system app. As I said, not necessary, but shouldn't hurt anything.
Edit: No go in XDA app either. You can contact someone about it if it's a feature you regularly use, maybe someone can get it sorted out.

As long as you survived a reboot you should be safe to delete, I would make a backup of the app incase you run into an issue later on.

Yea, I'll do that. I don't really need all the different music players and I really like Win amp. I like streamlined, 1 if my favorite apps for whatever I need. What I was looking to do was what you did with your apps from Go. Kinda migrate them in to the ROM.

So the less obvious features.

I just have a couple of dumb questions.
Do the motions being active consume battery?
Do I have to engage anything before tapping my screen to send a file to another phone? (or is having that check box enabled1 enough?) also is the Galaxys3 the only phone compatible with that feature?
The commercial where the guy just swoops a document from his phone to the tv... What's the process for that and I imagine it only works with certain tvs after an annoying registration /setup process.
Are they working on improving svoice or is that not a huge priority
Is there a voice dialer like on froyo that doesn't require the internet to do phone functions? I don't like relying on 3g.
I'm sure I'll think of more, but I apologize if this is in the wrong thread. Please just let me know and I'll copy paste to the right one.

I'm on stock deodexed, so maybe that's why. I'd try to push it to your phone from the play store via your computer.
Edit: Missed your second post, glad you got it working
Sent from my Galaxy Note II using Tapatalk
i updated with no problems. just got another one today. on jellybomb.
I managed to install BW earlier with no problem but some of the Widgets didn't work when I dropped them on a screen. They did have an update which I applied today and they seem to work now.
What I find as very odd is that a lot of the apps under "S Suggest" like "CameraAce" have that message "Your device isn't compatible with this version". I'm rooted but have original stock ROM.
I've used the BW Live Weather wallpaper on my last couple of phones. The previous update gave me a white sun instead of yellow, and broke the settings. It said "This application is not installed".
Today's update fixed that but I still have the white sun. Why can I change the color of the grass but not the sun?!?
I've been using BW since my old Evo 4G.. still works on my Note 2 without issue. I'm using stock deodexed LJC.

Or does it only have tablet mode, and that's what the dpi fix fixes?

TouchWiz miui

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.
