what is wrong with mc2? - Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II

there are so few mc2 ROMs and they are all broken in some way. why are the good devs staying away from it?

Thing is that it's not that big of an update to completely redo a whole rom. Plus MA7 has nothing wrong in my opinion.

Yup, and many of us are waiting for 4.2.2 TWiz to bother with another update on TWiz ROMs...unless there are glaring bugs.
OP, when Samsung releases an updated firmware...they basically completely rewrite where everything is located...which essentially means that you have to start completely from zero, figuring out where the hell Samsung hid what and figuring out again what needs done to change what....it is the definition of a software root canal.

Personally I had some sort of degrading performance issue on MC2 that doesn't exist on MA7, both were deodexed.

[Q] AOSP Lockscreen for EC05?

Has there been an update for EC05? I really like that lock screen.
It has been posted for both bonsia and srf. So what rom are you using?

Just an update, I switched Rom's from Stock to Syndicate Frozen and picked up the lockscreen there. I do not need this anymore, but you can still update it for those who want it on the stock Rom. Thanks for the efforts.
PS - The Syndicate Frozen Rom with the Twilight Zone Kernel is freakin' amazing. My phone is much faster than I ever thought it would be. ;D
Yes please. I have been waiting for an eco5 stock aosp. It would be great i u could develop this. Thanks in advance.

What would be a difference between EC05 and the AOSP from one of the ROMs?

I thought that also and have tried to flash prolly 5 or 6 different ones and cant seem to get it to work. I am still rfs with cwm 2. So i obviously made sure to not use and ext4 version. They say install complete, but no dice.

The eb13 one works just fine. I flashed it out of curiosity and it worked no issues. Been running it for a few days.
I'm not on stock though. I'm on syndicates ec05 rom

Why wouldn't you flash the one made for syndicate.
The problem with flashing something that's not made for particular roms is certain hacks/mods will not function correctly and cause problems. Flashing something designed for eb13 on ec05 is bad also as there has been changes to the .jar and coding so **** ain't lining up right. It may be minor or major but I can gyrante something is gonna break

If anyone is adventurous they can use this simple DIY guide. I've used it when new roms come out cause I don't like waiting around for someone to do it. It's handy. Amosher13's DIY: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=969354

Going on two weeks...
Havent had the chance to flash the appropriate one nor have I ran into a need to do so as my phone is functioning just fine as is...

Anyone else skipping roms?

I decided no roms this time around. I want everything to work. I will likely root to get rid of some bloat. Anyone else?

I will say that this is one of the ONLY phones that I ever thought about NOT romming but I doubt I will be able to hold back if something really good comes out...Hello, I am Justin, I am a flashaholic!
GOTTA have root access though... Can't have any company telling me what I HAVE to keep on my phone! :good:
My exact same thoughts. I only rooted to get rid of the bloat. Quick question though. ... im a little nervous... would I still be able to update if tmobile decides to push one even though im rooted?
Sent from my SGH-T889 using xda app-developers app
I hope not to also but when a new version of android comes out and no update from the carrier then flashing seems like the only option..
Cm10 with S pen functionality is that possible?
Should get rid of CarrierIQ at least =/
Paranoid is a must on this phone. Will likely wait until there is a stable release.

Deff agree on that one. But alas, i will miss alot of the OG functions from touchwiz on this phone. Although with GN1, they found work arounds for it. Especially S Note.
My plan is to root as late as I can to avoid messing things up. I figure we won't see an update for a few weeks and by then all the bugs that come along with rooting a phone should be worked out. I really enjoy this phone and can, surprisingly, wait on rooting.

I know when I rooted that if I go to check for a software update it says it won't do it on a modified device so I am pretty sure we won't get OTA's through the rooted devices but you can just wait for someone to post the updated OTA and flash that and your good to go!
Or do you still have stock recovery?
Only rooted for bloat and spyware removal and a nice kernel. But im only flashing stock TW based roms!

The only way I will install a custom rom on the note 2 is if they come out with Android 4.1.2 , 4.2, or Key Lime Pie.

I'll still get a custom ROM but only those based on stick for full s pen and camera usage. Can't give those up

I guess I'll do that.
Seriously I don't understand why would anyone want aosp roms on this baby when spen features and touchwiz is what makes this phone awesome. To each its own. I just dont want the term flashing hipster to give birth.

I want to root but I want the functionality of ISIS.
So no rooting at this point

Im either going to wait to root until after the ota for multi window function is sent out or ill root if a rom including it is released first.

Synergy - Thank you

I cannot post over on the Synergy thread that I located as it is developers only and I completely understand. I am hoping the Synergy folks see my post here and my thanks.
I've had my SGN2 for a few months and have pretty much played with JB Domination. I finally had enough of what I felt was the blue everything being shoved down my throat and went back to stock. I think it is one of the best ROM's out there but not if it forces you to accept all of it's programming and colors much like the SGN2 itself. This is my opinion.
Synergy is nice!! It gets ride of a lot of crap on the phone, it is very, very quick, it gives me the tether that I need. No complaints. I liked it so much that I actually sent in a small donation, something I typically do not do often on things like this.
I will say I am running V14 as it that seemed the heaviest in use. There is a v32 version but my phone kept turning off and had to have a battery pull to get it back online.
If you liked r14, upgrade to r47...its what i am running now (ziggy kernal and all). platt continues to outdo himself with each update!

I upgraded from Synergy LJC to Synergy MA7 easily with no problems at all. I would say the biggest upgrade is being able to use Ziggys kernal. There were some hiccups with his kernal on LJC, but it runs smooth on MA7. I say make a nandroid, and take the plunge!

[Opinions]Vzn sgs 3 just got 4.1.2 what do you think?

http://m.androidcentral.com/verizon-galaxy-s3-seeing-its-android-412-update-today
Just read that today. Wanted to know what you guys think. More geared to those not running 4.2.2 ROMs since we all know you can just flash those and not worry about updates.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
Nothing exciting. Biggest thing being improved Bluetooth. According to that list, they are leaving out everything from the International 4.1.2 update. And the 4.2 roms we have are AOSP, this update is stock TW.

Yeah it didn't look at that exciting to me. I'm sure Tmobile will lag on this let alone 4.2. I'm running stock now since I got my replacement. But, I think at least for me I'll skip the sgsiv and see what the end of the year holds. I've been through too many phones this last year to warrant me getting the sgsiv. Htc amaze>Sgs2>gbex>sgs3.

Seems like they prioritize bloating their updates than including actual features from the Intl version.

Was gonna work on a port of the OTA but ran into problems with the bootloader.
It doesn't seem to be much of a upgrade after talking to some Verizon users.

Mostly stock rom

Before I get incinerated, I did search but could not find what i was looking for.
I am looking for a completely stock rom with only CIQ and Knox removed, i would like all the other bloat and crapware on it. also no other mods that can potentially cause future issues.
I was running the Darthstalker but it seems to now have a few severe glitches and Jovy is no longer supporting it.(Which i do not blame him, he has done a lot for just donations and has a life of his own.)

And are you sure you did a full wipe? You can also just flash the stock firmware with Odin and then just root
Sent from my SGH-M919 using Tapatalk
Yep did full wipes, After reading thru there threads it seems quite a few are having this issue lately with Jovys rom. may be a conflict with a updated app or something.
I am going to play around between wicked and Sickness Rebirth for a bit. hopefully there will be a just slightly modified 4.4 tmobile tw in the future.
