Have you ever tried Groupme? It's in the playstore.

It's not in our secmms by default. Is a pretty simple mod to do though.

Not really, the Verizon variant doesn't have the notification bubbles on the lockscreen, shutterv sound in camera app and the launcher didn't have infinite scrolling. They all got there neat little added features.

The mod to activate the ability to do group messaging in SecMms is simple, but in my experience getting it to function as it's supposed to is a different story unfortunately. With help from a thread in the AT&T section I believe I got it close, but not close enough for me to keep it.
That being said, 4.2.2 roms I believe are fine with group messaging.

Can you let us know how you did it, if its not too much trouble?

This was useful for "flipping the switch" in the SecMms.apk itself, but most of my experimenting came from pulling framework2.jar/SecTelephonyProvider.apk files from here, decompiling them, looking for where things changed (comparing a "base" version - I used unmodified Novella files as those were reported working - to the modded versions in the post), then looking at our own files, seeing where things differ between the unmodified Novella and TMobile versions, and trying to work in the changes from the OP of that thread. It was pretty close, but there was still some buggy behavior in my opinion for how I wanted to implement things (which differed slightly from the OP) - so I figured aosp mms was close enough for me and let it go lol. This is no small task - but far from impossible. For me it was a cost/benefit thing - it was costing myself too much of my own time for a benefit I could get elsewhere - but such cost/benefit analyses will vary from individual to individual

You've gotta try this!

I'm going to risk posting in the wrong forum in the hopes of getting some more attention on this app...MyScript Notes Mobile. I followed the instructions in this thread and am totally blown away by how functional it makes the Note II. This does require root and a custom recovery.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1526433
This app vindicates every hope I had for the S Pen. I can scribble a quick note and export the text straight into GTasks, or a host of other apps. I can write page after page and then convert just the parts I want straight into text by circling it. The management of notebooks and pages is simple and intuitive. I liked S Notes OK, but this is in another class.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dHHO--XZlqM
The fun part of this is the fact that S Notes is made by the same company that made this app. There is also talk that this app may show up in the Samsung app store before the end of the year, so those of you that are unwilling to root may get a version of this app, too!
Wow that's so cool I'll definitely try it

Follow the link to the video. The handwriting conversion can be real-time without writing in another area of the screen, or it can be converted later. I know it seems a small thing, but it is not.
Sorry didnt see it above...

Here's a Note2 safe version of the app to flash. The only difference is that the script is modified and rewritten to accommodate the file system of the Note2 as opposed to the Xoom, which it was originally written for. Basically, this version is tested and set up for the Note2 specifically.
I need a few of you guys to test it out before I post a thread for it. This app works 100% for me.
Removed download. Visit this thread to play with the work in progress.
Many thanks! Downloaded and flashing now. Comments to follow.

Installed fine, but the wheel that you use to convert text is missing. Actually, it is there, I just cannot see it. Also, the first couple of characters are a very heavy pen weight, but then it gets real thin.
Just backed up all apps with TiBu and planning on a factory reset to try again.

It's the same thing in the Xoom version. The only difference here is the script isn't formatting your caches to yaffs.
Factory reset did the trick. The wheel is back. The pen weights are still goofy, but it works just fine. I'll keep you posted, but it is sure nice to have the text wheel back.

Developers are working hard on this. We are close. The rom I use has it ported and it only works to switch apps but multiview is still pending.
Freeza is s great developer who might figure this out before anyone does. Keep a look out for his rom

Cool app for modding apps....

Folks,
This is pretty slick. First time I've seen it, others probably know about it.
http://highonandroid.com/android-ap...-mode-on-any-rooted-android-smartphonetablet/
Read the article but short version is you can set apps to different resolutions, dpi, font scaling, and force some apps into tablet mode.
I've tried it on MA7 and gmail. I love the tablet version of gmail over the stock "phone" version of gmail.
This is for ROOTED phones only.
There are a few AOSP ROMs that already implement per app dpi, either via Xposed or otherwise. It is a neat feature... Helps fix broken apps that only work on a set screen size.

I think they're still calling this JB because the only new feature besides the camera is bluetooth low energy, I'm sure there's got to be code optimizations and other small things, but those are apparently the only new things.

Guys, this works pretty decently, at least from what I have used thus far. One big change in this from the GE 4.2.2.... no TW guts.... Kiesexe in system/app is gone, and there is no TW framework in system/framework. This is pure'er' than the previous GE build

Enable Swype/Trace/Path input on stock keyboard

I I decided to do a little messing around on my phone today. The lack of Swype features on the stock keyboard irritated me. Lol So I was messing with build prop.
First you must be rooted, second get a Build Prop editor, or something like ROM Toolbox, third be sure to make a back up in case you mess something up.
Open your build prop and look for these lines: ime_trace_apply and ime_trace_menu. Tap one to open it up and you'll see Property Value:false and Default Value:false. Click the selection box under Default Value and change it to true. Save and go back into the build prop.
Do the same thing for the next line. So now both of your items (ime_trace_apply and ime_trace_menu) will read True. Be sure to save Build Prop and reboot. Once you do that, try to use the keyboard.
You should see a quick pop up explaining what Trace Input is. If you don't, then check in your setting and make sure you have it checked. That's all there is to it. I'm so much happier with the stock keyboard now.
*Try not to screw up any settings please!*
FYI - I am not responsible for you messing with your Build Prop, screwing up your device, bricking it or Grumpy Cat coming to your front door, to call you a failure.
***Edit - in the example provided, ROM Toolbox Lite was used. ***

1. Because I like it.
2. Because it has a dedicated Number Row.
3. Because it has built in Emoji's.
Swiftkey is supposed to get #2 and #3 soon, until then...see #1 - #3.

This is very cool! Why would they hide this feature?
I also like the dedicated number row... Only complaint is that the space bar is too narrow (I also have that complaint for the swype keyboard).
I've been using Kii - space bar is wider, and it also allows you to backspace after autocorrect to revert to the original word (if you don't want it uncorrected). But I'd switch to stock full time if only the space bar were wider.

I'm looking for the value for the brightness slider in the notification drop down, it might be in the frameworks it self. Actually if you play with the xposed modules it will bring it back but the minute you slide it, it will crash the system UI

I had this problem too. I ended up using the GravityBar module in Xposed, which happens to have the feature to slide your finger across the statusbar itself to change brightness (under Statusbar tweaks, at the bottom). Works perfectly, no crashes. Not sure if everyone will find this to be an acceptable alternative, though.
Weird cause Swipe was enabled by default on the Verizon model. I actually had to go in and turn it off in the settings.
So funny how the G2 does all these great things yet every version this, this, and that disabled. It would be cool to find a rom that has everything enabled to let US pick and choose what features we want to use.
It's like the AT&T version doesn't have launcher themes. I'm not sure if they even have Keyboard, SMS, or launcher themes. Those are pretty buried too.

Yes it does. I've group messaged several times.
Except I use Hangouts now for primary messaging... although I found the stock SMS app more feature rich (and has the popup sms). Hangouts just has the AOSP feel to it, plus it keeps my actual hangout chats in one place = 1 less icon on the desktop.
The LG Stock Roms are pretty feature thick, its just hit and miss what each variant has enabled. AT&T disables the Launcher Themes?! Some disable Group Messaging?! Some have a QuickApp Stock Browser that is windowable (Verizon doesn't have this)?!!!! Some have FM Radios?!
Just gimme everything please!
