Hey,
Gotta get those posts up so I can ask and confirm stuff in the Dev thread Been crazily flashing my GNEX! lol
Just confirming that the latest Liquid Rom 1.2 runs well using the latest Popcorn kernel! Nice and fast plus completely stable. I use my phone heaps and I am totally happy...... well I was until this afternoon :-(
Bluetooth - Got a brand new stereo for the car today, and the phone won't connect to it via bluetooth. It searches and finds the stereo, but it won't connect. The sales guy's stupid iPhone connected straight away, so I changed roms there and then. Flashed AOKP Milestone4 and it too wouldn't connect :-( So I flashed it with the latest Gummy 0.9.0 and it worked!
I do like the Gummy rom, but I prefer Liquid. Is there a fix, or is there something that I didn't do that I should have? I always do a full wipe before a flash so I know that isn't it.
Help would be appreciated
update
UPDATE:
Flashed Liquid Rom 1.2 again and initially bluetooth connection did the same thing as before, but the second try it worked! So I am very happy
Popcorn kernel running beautiful on it. The test will be over the weekend when I spend some time mucking around with the phone (gotta go to stupid work tomorrow!).
Sure am loving my GNEX! And this forum of course!!! ;-) Been a long time lurker... flashed my old Galaxy S2 many many months ago from info I found on this forum. Since them I have already flashed the GNEX with around 6-7 different ROMS.
Not only is this place a great source of plain old info, but the info that you do find here is explained well enough for even noobs like me to understand
I've loved this phone since I got it, and was terribly excited when it was successfully rooted. Many roms sprung up by a few devs, such as dman, and thegreatergood. But now, dman is prioritizing his daily driver, which is fine. Thegreatergood has disappeared due to personal reasons, which is also fine. I don't demand updates or anything, however it seems all the other smaller devs abandoned the device. Thegreatergood has 5 jellybean roms in the dev forum, and sadly none of them have been touched by anyone in almost a month. I'm starting to see issues with every 4.2.2 rom spontaneously fast booting, and there is no mention of any updates on Jelly Bean.
Basically, what I'm trying to ask is, is anyone out there working on something? I know asking for ETA's is a no-no, but I'm just asking if anyone has adopted development for this device? I use this phone for everything, and I'm not able to change to some of the more "preferred" devices such as the Nexus series. Is there anyone who knows of anything coming soon?
Sorry for the little wall of text, I'm just kinda sad that the glide seems to be dying off.
Worried about this too, the DEV section of forum seems to be totally dead.
AT&T seems to abandon this device too, since hasnt release a proper ICS ROM (It was like "Oh, ICS didnt work, lets leave it on GB").
Have to stay at GB because of that
dman with do what he can, I am sure. Other than that, I think development is dead.

Are there any decent QWERTY phones out there or any coming up this year?
I love this phone and it seems like there is no suitable replacement out there.
i would have to say that development isnt exactly dead... but its dying quickly... this phone isnt the main focus of the devs that hash out roms and tweaks for it anymore (for some not sure it ever was)... its an older phone now, there are bigger better phones out there (have been for a while). granted this is probably still the best qwerty phone, the interest to develop full time for it isnt.
i am sure here soon dman will put out whatever he is working on.... eventually...
in my opinion dont expect a 100% fully functional custom rom that isnt based on the stock ics... the only one i could say that is there is literom... all others out there arent even close.... we wont ever see 100% working JB...
Yeah, for a while I was checking in daily and flashing some patch, mod or rom like once a week! I am still happier on CM 10.1 than I was on GB or even the very nice ICS literom, but it would be great to see the list of fixes get worked on like they were.
I guess we are being put out to pasture, but I sure appreciate all the Devs did to help keep this phone feel great as long as it did!

I'm part of the Covenant Team as well as a co-dev for the IcePop rom. All I can say. Is that I know most of the other devs are either spending more time with their families with the near stable roms having been released, and maybe a few are back in school for the spring semester. I personally looked into the graphical and appearance of the roms, not as much of the coding due to computer technical issues and spacial issues with my hard drive. But don't give up hope just yet! Our glide may have a comeback soon. who knows. There are still a ton of we glide users in this community that are working behind the scenes to push out either patches or completely new roms.
Nevermind.
You are kidding right? The dev forum is full of different roms for all tastes, ICS, JB, the like. As far as I am aware, nobody got a "free phone" as you say. People just donated to dman (who paid for his Cappy out of his own pocket), and rightfully so because he and thegreatergood put our phone on the map again with great ROMs and updates.
Vanilla Rootbox has been my DD for a while now. The 4.2.2 roms have very few issues and none of those affect me fortunately.

Hmm, I don't think this is true. I got the busted ICS update for these devices when it was out before it was pulled. It was then posted a few weeks later again with the proper fix. You have to go through Kies, but you should have an ICS update for your device, at least to 4.0.4..
Really hope it hasn't died but at this point I am considering moving back to ICS just so my sound works properly. Sucks. If my VOIP calling worked correctly, CM10 is exactly what I want. Its so smooth and less bloated than the official ICS ROMs. I wouldn't even be considering a new device this year if we could get the sound issues fixed. But its gone on so long now that I would just like a straight answer from the few devs we have - is this issue ever going to be addressed?
I'm as happy as anyone to have any sort of development for the Glide and none of the developers owe us a thing. But this has been an issue for so long now, I wish we could just get a straight answer. Working on it, can't be fixed or they just don't care. Any answer is better than nothing at this point.
I really like the glide, because a like the tegra graphics for games, but, i like switch roms too. I hope that someone come to help us. Maybe we must wait a little more
Hi to all. I've tryed different roms till now. Im a noob still regarding android development, but i'm trying to learn a bit. I would definately love to have the VOIP calling enabled, photosphere less lag at wakeup for 4.2.2 and no lag for voice calls. Regarding photosphere, i've tryed it with every rom available i set permissions and everything. As far as what i observed is on 4.2.2 I can get 1 photo and then the app simply close. On ICS i can take up to 7 - 8 pics and after that the app close.

I would be happy to be wrong, but as far as I know ATT has released ICS with much errors, after that released the GB again to roll everyone back.
Also, all the versions of ICS have the deep sleep issue, so they are totally unusable as a phone itself.
People that asked ATT support for a solution had unacceptable answer like "Reboot your phone once a day".
As for Kies, my phone is not recognized with any rom to update so I do everything manually.

The best answer I can give... Actually read the development section for our device...
ICS IcePop Rom -modded UCLJ3)
UCLJ3 rooted (ICS -the fixed one-)
you guys complaining about ICS need to read up through the development forum before coming here to complain...
as for JB users (including myself)
Liquid Smooth (has working panorama, video (with sound), sound recording, and skype like apps work)
To be honest, liquid smooth i dont try it a lot, but in the issues say, that skype doesnt work

Lol, and what?
I've mainly been reading the dev section for all the time, and tried most of the roms availible there.
Stock and modified 4.0.4 has problems with the GSM deep sleep issue, so do all the roms above 4.0.4 (4.1 and 4.2). All this makes a good toy out of the phone, but looses the main purpose - recieve calls and sms on time.
And yes, I've already tested the 4.2.2 version of liquid smooth, but skype and bluetooth are not working, as stated in OP.

Hey guys, I have a Sprint, SM-T807P (10.5" LTE/Snapdragon) version of the Tab S and I must say that I have been nothing short of impressed since the day I purchased it back in December. However, the one (major) downfall is that it seems 1 in 1000 Tab S owners actually have the 807P, which appears to be resulting in a virtual non-existent world of ROM's/custom kernels etc.
I was HOPING I am either over looking something, looking in the wrong location, or not aware of which other models may be compatible with mine.
I just Odin'd from DUH's KK ROM, to stock OE3 Lollipop, and was hoping to get re-rooted/CWR or TWRP installed and find myself a slick little ROM to install.
Is there any hope? lol Thanks in advance, ladies and gents!
Adding on to this. I bought the SM-T807P used (because it was a great deal) and I am only interested in running it through wifi. I dont need the LTE capability.
Somewhere I heard that some other Snapdragon roms will work, I'll just loose LTE functionality ... which is fine by me.
Does anyone have a list or can point me in the right direction for other roms that would work in wifi mode?
Or tell me which snapdragon roms will work?
It's already rooted and TWRP is installed. I'm just lacking in roms.
Thanks!

I'm sure @duh will gladly build an updated Rom for you guys if enough of you request it.
Maybe if you have enough knowledge you can build one for yourself and the other Sprint owners?

Did you ever receive any answers on this? I am in the same boat, I only have a gig or two of data on my Tab S, but have unlimited data on my Note 4, that's rooted+ROM'd, including the hotspot mod. So I could do without the LTE as well...
What exactly is it you are all expecting from a custom rom?
Practically all custom roms are simply debloated stock roms with maybe the odd extra thrown in.
There is nothing magic in a stock custom rom that you can't do yourself.

What I really want for my sweet little device is for someone to port over Cyanogenmod. Which is what I have been using for year.
cm is bad on tab s just prefer pac rom over it
I bought an unlocked Note 2 in the summer of 2013.
I happily used it until Christmas when it 'disappeared' in our house. My toddler daughter had hidden it somewhere.
Despite turning the house upside down it was never found and I reluctantly moved backwards to older phones I already had.
Nearly 2 years later and a builder found it hidden away in our spare room.
I know have my phone back which has been in hibernation for 18 months. It is running 4.4.1 and my question is this.
Despite it now being old I would like to upgrade the firmware to the best I can for the device without it slowing down. Please can someone recommend an upgrade and where I can find it. Phone is not rooted so will I have to do this?
Thanks in advance for your time.
There is no 4.4.1 for the note?

Good news that you found your phone. Probably your firmware is 4.1.1 and not 4.4.1 because 4.4.1 not exist and also you have to update this firmware immediately because of sds bug. If you don't know about it Google it. There are plenty of roms at forum and also plenty of instructions how to flash a custom rom and also how to update at latest official if you don't prefer custom.

Thanks for your reply Vagsvag. Just checked and it's running 4.4.2. I think it automatically upgraded something when I turned it on and logged in for the first time (sorry I'm not very savvy). In your opinion will this suffice or is there a newer platform I can safely download. I did a cursory bit of research on Google and it looks like 'Android L' is the last one offered for the Note 2, but I couldn't see if it was ever confirmed. I'll do some more research on here. I'd rather not load up a custom rom as when I did that to my last phone (S2 and the Lite'ning Rom) the phone became very glitchy. Perhaps things have improved in the last 5 years.

4.4.2 is the latest official, for newer version of Android you must go to custom rom, cm or aosp, there are also some roms transfered from official s3 firmware android version 4.4.4. My opinion is if you are ok with speed, response etc stay with this only root it to remove junk apps and block the ads. Now if you want something little bit more fresh you can try cm base, one of the more stable is Ivan_Meler's cm 12.1 at original android forum.

Thank you for all your help. I've rooted the phone which seems to make everything quicker. I'll stick with 4.4.2 for now but will have a look at CM12.1 at some point.
Ivan Meler CM 12.1, Best ROM so far. Whenever you plan to get in the CUSTOM ROM Zone !!!
Hi Guys,
Can anyone recommend the most feature packed Note 7 ROM for my Note 4 Sprint carrier. I have Used Dr. Ketan Note 7 ROM. It's a very good ROM..
But the camera app isn't updated and after updating it doesn't work, the original Samsung keyboard doesn't work properly, there is no private mode in it & message app doesn't work either.
So looking for a Note 7 ROM that contains less bugs.
Thanks,
Asim
Ive been using Tx.dbs Ultimate Note 7 hybrid rom since it came out and have been completely happy with how it operates as a daily for me,everything pretty much works perfect for a note 7 rom on a note 4.:good:

If your using Sprint service, I agree with @JAMRZ69, the UN7 rom by tx_dbs_tx was made specifically for Sprint.
But feel free to try others to, as long as they have a sprint fix.
Also try to apply AlternateSmsMmsSendingFix_UN7_Hybrid_by.txdbstx to any of the roms you try, as it might help with sprint service. It's on his thread.
As far as private mode goes, i don't think any note7 ports have it. I could be wrong about this part though.
Thanks guys,
I will surely try this ROM and post my feedback.
BTW, is it just me or do you guys also feel that Sprint carrier phone has very less Custom ROMS compared to other variants..
Also lucky are those who have international variants because I've seen ROMs that have almost 0 bugs..

Yes, I can agree with that. I'm kinda lucky in that apect,as I'm unlocked using gsm service (cricket). So it's easier for me to get the other roms working.
To explain why, from what i understand as I'm not a sprint customer, but from what I've studied here. Sprint is one of the hardest carrier's to get working, as they have an extra layer of software to connect to their service, in a sense! Plus Also the predominant service, worldwide is GSM. So there are more GSM roms and it's easy to get a certain gsm rom to work with another gsm provider, and also it isnt super hard to get cdma roms to work with gsm. BUT it is difficult to get GSM roms to work with cdma, especially Sprint because of their setup.
Hope that gives you some insight! At least this is how i understand it!
Plus also, there were actually a lot of sprint roms, they're just older lollipop or not being further developed. This is because the device is aging and all the devs moved on to another device. That's why we must be grateful for the continued development of roms on this device from these great developers. Hopefully some young learning devs like me can keep it going. But I'm just am old dog learning new tricks!

I am using an unlocked sprint phone myself.. Would that also allow me to flash custom ROMs which are for other GSM variants? If that's the case, then I can get hands on some really good ROMs.

Yes, how it usually works is, you install the rom, then you need to install a separate kernel for your device (in most cases they'll suggest the Ram kernel), Then you'll need a data fix. Which usually can be found, or you make one.
If you try a rom and have trouble, I can try to help you with making a fix. They're pretty simple for gsm service. What I've found out is, to stick with installing sprint kernel, but since we use gsm, you can use a tmobile data fix most of the time.

Omg, there are so many options. It's hard for me to say. I have a few post on Sprint section, giving my opinion, explaining some different roms. But it was just comparing newer Sprint roms. When you bring in the international thread, there's just so many options. And all of them are good. Its gonna come down to what works for you. Browse some of the current work going on, and try one. If you don't like after a trial run, try another. If anything, it'll give you xp flashing your device.
But just to name ones that I've actually had running, here's a list in no particular order:
Enhanced
Norma
Nemesis
Dr Keaton
Nameless
Auroa
Emotion
Resurrection
Lineage
Just off the top of my head. That's not counting the ones one the Sprint thread like, UN7 and Dtux.
Read, do some research, look at screenshots and pick one.
Once you pick one and if have trouble getting going with data fix. Let me know I'll try help!
Happy flashing!
Remember, it has to be a Snapdragon Rom.
im curious if anyone has found a nice rom to put on the N4, I just got a replacement the other day and im hoping to load something fun onto it. It came with marshmallow 6.0.1...
the last thing i had was UN5 running, im a little afraid to try UN7 knowing that development has stopped for it..
