Note 2 (T889) 4.4.2 KitKat ? - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II

Sorry if this is a repost, but is there a 4.4.2 KitKat yet for the T889 model aka Tmobile

This is the only TouchWizz KitKat Rom that's been posted on the Development Threads. Built from the Nordic Based Firmware.
But you can use AT&T Roms on our T889 and they will work.
Rom Of Thrones

Yes there are a few of them. Look in the development section.

Which AT&T roms work on T889?

Pretty much any AT&T Note 2 Rom posted in the AT&T Development Thread. But read the threads OPs first just to be sure... Ive flashed atleast 4 AT&T Roms and 1 N7105 Rom on my T889.

Out of the AT&T roms you have flash which did you like best?

i cant seem to find a stock 4.4.2 note 2 rom for ATT
also since im tmobile, do i need to find a modem/radio to flash?

Im on DN3 Beta 2 right now. So far I haven't had any black screen freezes which I had on Beta 1. I like it a lot.
The other Rom I liked before DN3 (4.4.2 base) was released was a test Rom. It didn't have a name. But you can find it on the AT&T General Section by bsbachert.. It was only Beta 1 at the time. It's now on Beta 2 but I haven't tried it.
The only reason I like these Roms are simple. Transparent AccuWeather and Colored Emojis (its standard now tho) Everything else is just a plus.
DN3, to me, is feature rich and most of them I don't use.
I might go back to that test rom and just add the Note 3 Launcher because the launcher on that Rom wasn't sized correctly.

The only US carrier to release a Note 2 OTA is Sprint. AT&T hasn't yet. The ones floating around on AT&T and Tmo forums are based on the Nordic N7105 rom.

Not as is. It would be a train wreck. Sprint roms don't translate add well to GSM devices. You won't get anything more from theirs than from the existing work on the Nordic releases. Try ROM of Thrones from mattlowry or eZCAT from ezdubzitmk4. They are a decent option. They are a bit quirky simply because they are based on TW. TW kitkat broke some functionality by design.

I'm using ezcat right now. Running pretty well with no issues. Lots of neat features. I recommend a full wipe, then flash rom, keyboard fix, then s5 keyboard, modem and then go to first boot. Then reboot into recovery and flash supersu.
I also like the stock ui so I flashed that mod as well after flashing supersu.
No issues as of yet liking it so far.

[Q] Question about custom roms on the SM-N900T

Hello everyone, I have a new T-Mobile Galaxy Note 3 running stock 4.4.2. The phones been pretty good with the exception of TouchWiz. I HATE TouchWiz. To me it is a deal breaker. I much prefer the vanilla Android experience of my Galaxy Nexus. So I'd like to know if it would be possible for me to install something like CM11 or AOSP? Or should I just exchange my Note for Nexus 5? I apologize if this has been answered before, but as a newb I haven't been able to find a clear answer in searching and I really need an answer with only a couple of days left to exchange my phone.
To skip to the question,
Would it be possible for me to install a ROM like CM11 or AOSP onto my new T-Mobile Note 3 which has been updated to 4.4.2?

Yes, you can install CM11 easily, as long as you don't care about KNOX.
You just need to download your favorite recovery(I use TWRP 2.7), odin install it. Then download the latest version of whatever AOSP ROM you want, and make a backup of your current system in recovery, then format all(excluding internal and external SD), then flash the ROM.

I don't see any CM11 or other AOSP ROM's in the TMO Original Development subforum. My favorite AOSP ROM, SlimROM, only shows the "Hlte" Note 3 as being supported. Which I think is the International N3. Can we flash that on the TMO S3's?

Yes, ALL AOSP Rom's are "Unified" meaning that the HLTE version of their roms support our device, and other hlte versions(AT&T and so on).

Thanks. That's the way it is for the S4 also.
But on the AT&T S4 original development subforums, we actually have AOSP ROM threads. Where as I see none on the TMO Note 3 subforum. Kinda weird.

TW ROM Recommendation

Hey, I'm using a N900T, and was wondering if there are any TW ROMs that are compatible with mines with a clean international base. I don't use WiFi calling or anything, so I don't need it. I can do without the T-Mobile customizations.

For quite a while, the t-mobile update was the most current update period and ran just as stabile as any international rom. I recommend trying the recent nf1 room from t-mobile and using Titanium backup to freeze unwanted bloat. Can't go wrong with either effortless or vision.

So you got a N900T Tmobile phone and want the best and most compatible international
custom rom, well there is only one to choose from in that catagory and it's the X-NOTE.
Unlike other N9005 roms this one does not need any wifi/nfc/bluetooth fix file for it to work.
But best of all it's truly a work of art and it will even work properly on the Tmoble network
without the need to flash any Tmobile kernels.
It comes bundled in the Aroma installer which has ton's of options as to what exactly
you want to install and what you would call junk/bloat and so forth.
But if your really into a stripped down rom and only want more or less the very
basics, why not simply flash a AOSP/CM CyanogenMOD rom?
Those have so much ripped out that the twrp/cwm flashable zip file including the
gapps is way under 3-4 hundred megs in size compared to the 1.4 to 1.8GB
full featured custom roms.
Here is the link to the X-NOTE International thread where you can read all about
it before downloading: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2472301

I use AOSP(I have a backup of CM11) and Touchwiz, but when I use Touchwiz, I would rather have it the way Samsung would probably want it, without carrier junk. I'll check into X-Note too. I think it's safe to say that I'm still new to the Note 3 scene.

I've been looking for a new ROM. X-Note looks good, but i'm wondering how well it works on the N900T. I know you can install it with a patch and kernel, but does it run the way it's supposed to if it really was made for the international version of the Note 3?

I am running X-Note now and I have a Tmobile branded N900T Unlocked Note 3 and
the x-note rom works great with it.
One of the niceties about it is the fact that you don't need to apply or flash any patches
for the wifi/nfc/bluetooth to work properly and you don't even need to flash a kernel.
The X-note rom is so compatible to the Note 3 N900T that all it really needs is a full
and complete wipe including factory reset in twrp/cwm recovery before flashing.

New T-Mo Based ROM?

I need some help. I am not new to flashing roms and custom firmware but it has been quite some time since I've done so.
I'm currently on Jedi Master 17 (4.1.2) and want a newer more updated rom for my phone. I want the rom to have tmobiles wifi calling because I use this a lot at work i barely have any reception in a hospital on the first floor.
I was looking at rom of thrones and see it based on 4.4.2 but theres some stuff about KNOX and not being able to flash back to jedi in case I have any issues? Also I assume there is no wifi calling on this since its from the n7105 correct?
What do you guys think about flashed stock and updating through OTA? Would I be able to root and flash after that or no?
About the warranty I do not really care I am way out of it since I bought this phone at launch.
Please help me I haven't been around the flashing android scene for over a year. Thanks.
I personally go with Jedi X2, Agni kernel (so I don't have to update my bootloader yet maintain wifi) and spent some time making certain that I read up on the quirks that rom brought with it. There are other 4.3 tw tmobile roms but Jedi X is one of the more interesting. Conch Republic is another.
Wifi calling is only available for our device on official Tmo SGH-T889 release based ROMs.

The tmo based ROM refers to the TW ROM built for a tmo distributed device. ROMs built for such devices feature wifi calling which while may be considered bloat by some, may be a critically necessary feature for others. YMMV.

By checking for a modem in the zip as the n7105 modem isn't compatible with AT&T or t-mobile. If modem is in the zip I usually just replace with proper modem for your carrier.

No since it's AT&T you will need an AT&T modem in the phone as any other modem will cause an unknown baseband.

Should be fine! Just back up as you always would with TWRP and make sure you backup the modem as well. That way you'll always have one backed up if you need it just in case...
Yep, as long a modem isn't included in the zip (which it *typically* isn't in the case of AOSP based roms), you're good to go.
I personally don't even flash t0lteatt roms when they're available and instead use their t0lte counterparts, as the t0lte versions are sometimes more likely to be updated more often (and in some cases the t0lteatt device tree has been abandoned entirely!)
And if anyone's wanting to build a rom from source, while we're on the topic of AOSP roms, the t0lte tree is the way to go as far as the Galaxy Note 2 LTE models are concerned.

What reminded me to check the international forum was when I went to deactivate my old phones in Google Play Music, I noticed most of them were listed as an N7105- and all of the ROMs were downloaded from this forum anyway...
I was wondering about trying Roms from that forum too. I kept seeing posts where someone said something about a DN4 Rom. So I looked it up and downloaded..........only to find that it is not one of the Roms that works on our phone.......as of yet. It did flash and start up, but before I could make it past the welcome screen, I got a bunch of pop-ups about various items "quit working." And they kept coming back. And then I had the unknown baseband with no signal.................basically it just doesn't work. Damn shame too, cause it looked so nice. But this did make me look at the other Roms and I will be trying a few of them. I must say though, DN4 had my mouth watering for the GN4 experience on my 2.

[Q] A TW ROM 5.0.2 or 5.1.1 for S4 M919

I was just curious, I am trying out this from The Sickness: TW [ROM] 4.4.4 NH7 Insane Hybrid V6. It runs great and I am liking what I have. I like that it has the call using Wifi like the stock 4.4.4 had when I got the phone last month.
I was just curious if there is any chance a version could be done using either a 5.0.2 or 5.1.1 (although I doubt there is any done yet for 5.1.1) rom for S4 M919 that has the 5.02 os or 5.1.1 if one is available and do the same mods that The Sickness did for the 4.4.4 T-Mobile rom. That way I could be running Lollipop and still have the call using Wifi option. Plus having the sickness mods would be a cool thing. I know he did a sickness lollypop, but that requires a S5 from what I understand, since it is in the S5 section. I did have a S5, but it was Verizon and had a locked bootloader, so even if I still had it, I couldn't have tried his one for the S5.
Now that The sickness no longer has a S4 and announced his retirement from doing roms, I didn't know if anyone else could do something similar.
Thanks in advance.

From what I know WiFi calling is only on T-Mobile roms and there's no lollipop T-Mobile rom.
If you want lollipop you should go on the i9505 threads and use the roms there but they won't have WiFi calling.

Yeah I know. I have been trying out AICP that has 5.1.1 and Valdius (not sure if I got the name right) with 5.1.1. I figured there wouldn't be a rom from T-Mobile with Lollipop for the S4. Just was hoping as I am on their $30 plan with 5GB data, unlimited text, and 100 mins voice. That was why I undid the 5.1.1 version and installed the sickness 4.4.4 version. But got used to some of the features of lollipop that I'm torn on what I want to keep for awhile.
Technically I don't make very many calls with it, I mostly use my Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge for calls, this S4 is for testing other roms and seeing which one I like the best to play around on. So I guess really whether it has wifi calling or not doesn't really matter.
Course once I get the amount I owe on the S6 edge down enough, I may take advantage of T-Mobiles offer and let them pay off the rest of the edge payments on the phone, port that number to a T-Mobile S6 or S6 edge, and then get to try new roms on a faster S6 or S6 edge.
Thanks for the help.

You're welcome, there's always alternatives like using Google voice which I think uses data instead of your minutes. I'm using Imperium LL rom right now and I can't decide between lollipop and kit kat lol there's things I like about lollipop but I feel like kit kat was faster. It might be that memory leak but I have xposed installed with the fix and I've noticed with xposed installed the battery drains faster.

I guess there is no M919 version of Imperium LL rom? Looks neat, but I don't know if I can flash something for i9505 on a M919. Would be neat to try both Lollipop and Kitkat versions, but I bet I can't on this M919. Bummer. Oh well The Sickness 4.4.4 one works for me and AICP and Validus also works for me.

I have an M919. I've been trying different i9505 roms lately. You should look at the one You want and go on the search keywords in the thread and type SGH-M919 and posts will come up and you'd be able to check to see if it's compatible. So far I've tried Imperium LL and Goldeneye and I just flashed kushan a few minutes ago from the i9505. There are M919 ports of Albe's lollirom and S6 port in the tmobile forums out of those two I only tried S6 port.

I didn't know that. I thought one had to find ones made specifically for the model. I know M919 is jfltetmo, not sure what I9505 is, but I thought I had to find ones specifically for jfltetmo (m919). Good to know about this, now I can expand and try some others. What is the other name for I9505? I figured it starts with jflte, but any other letters after it?
Thanks!!!

I think it's just jflte since the i9505 can also be on att and verizon. It doesn't have to be specific, it just has to be compatible. It's easy to find out by doing the keyword search I mentioned in the thread of the rom. Forgot to mention I'm on NK2, I saw on some roms you have to have NK2 and it hasn't been tested on nh7

Cool. I'll try a keyword search. Anyway My bootloader is NK2 and baseband is NK2. Course with Sickness Insane Hybrid my PDA version is nh7 and CSC Version is nh7.
I downloaded Imperium LL 7.0 and Validus update. there is also a AICP update. I have tried both AICP and Validus and like them both. Can't wait to try Imperium.
I may clear everything and restore the stock rom first, to make sure I don't have a mixture of NK2 and NH7 like I do now. Then try Imperium.

I went completely stock nk2 before I started trying i9505 roms since I started with albe's S6 port and you need to be on nk2 for that to work. I used to be on nh7 too. I'm liking Imperium LL the most right now. I really liked S6 port too but I want to wait until more updates are out and the little bugs are fixed

I've always been on stock nk2 since I bought this phone a month ago. It's just insane hybrid changed those other two to nh7, but the bootloader and modem are still nk2.
I'm installing Imperium now, once the 1st boot gets done I'll set it up and see how it is.
Edit: What is the first prompt for? CSC if I remember? What do I pick there? I see different countries under each of the three letters, but none has US or Unied States, and none matched the NK2 bootloader or modem, so does it matter what I choose for CSC?
I did notice I can use Wifi, but if I turn Wifi off, I cant access anything, the APN lists one entry for T-Mobile and no matter if it is checked or not, I can't get mobile data.
I guess I'll have to restore a twrp backup and write down the setting for Tmobile on there cause that one works, and then re-install this and try to create a APN with those settings.
