Tips
- Clean flash strongly recommended with Android 4.2!
- Turn off Currents background sync! Major lag cause in 4.2.
- To be safe, I recommend clean flashing... especially if coming from another ROM.
- If you get a status 7 error flashing a ROM, try making sure SYSTEM is unmounted in 'mount/unmount partitions' menu in recovery. Thanks to jroid for finding the tip.

just in case
I just flashed this, so not much to say at the moment, but it works. I'll update this post as I use it more.
It'd be nice if you can get the CM10.1 keyboard. The stock keyboard doesn't allow long pressing for numbers and symbols.
Is it just me or are the keyboard clicking sounds different? Anyway, this thing is slippery fast. I like it.
I just restored back to CM10.1, but then I already missed the smoothness of this ROM. lol. Really enjoy this ROM. I hope you stay around.
Didint flash this based on using all the roms available right now, the biggest issue is wifi not reconnecting after sleep. I'm currently on jellybro. It's the most stable and reliable, well some nightly releases are better than others. The available oc kernal is not entirely smooth or bug free. So if you can somehow fix or create a rom with a good custom kernal, you have something going here.

Any explanation as to why? I only restored back to CM10.1 cause I forgot to TB my apps before I flashed your ROM. I'm back on your ROM right now and it's pretty damn good.

I always feel like I'm setting up a tent in someone's living room when I go into a forum like that. So I start small and try to get a feel for it. It didn't seem like there was any lack of ROMs and I misread the couple comments I got I guess. Thanks.

Well, there are definitely a lack of ROMs on the N10. There may be a total of at most 10 ROMs (and I think that number is more than there really is). The N10 is a great device that isn't seeing the developer support that I expected it to see. Yeah, it's a tablet, but I was expecting to see much more variety for a tablet that a lot people consider to be the best Android tablet on the market. So, the lack of ROMs is disappointing, and when I see a dev like you whose fantastic work I've seen on the GNex venturing in to the N10 forums, I definitely welcome it and most certainly desire it.
Your ROM will definitely help the N10 developmental and consumer community grow, so seriously stick around!
Also, I watched Muzzy in German when I was in high school.
I was so confused when I saw MMuzzy ROM in the N10 thread. Thought I had clicked on the GNex thread. Haha.
I've been running your rom on my GNex for several weeks. Can't wait to flash this and see how it goes.

LOL! I hated that stupid green monster when I was younger. Now I just think it's funny.
Thanks for the support. I think that it'll pick up. It's a beautiful tablet and I'd rather read on one of those then the N7's screen.

LOL I think I've watched about two episodes or so of Muzzy. I don't remember much but I just remember that there were a royal family of mice and that evil guy who clones the princess and my God, I wasn't even sure what I was watching at that point.
And yes, the N10 screen is absolutely great. I just wish the colors were a bit more saturated (a teeny bit more), but regardless, it's a great device.
Hey- don't give up on us yet! I'm a big fan of your GNex rom and have been looking for something like it on the 10. Have downloaded and flashed- so far so good. Will follow-up tomorrow with any issues after i've run it for a while...
Thanks again for the hard work!

I just notice Craig Gomez had a ROM in here. If I had seen that earlier when I was trying to decide I wouldn't have bothered. That's the ROM i'd run if I had a Nexus 10. He's helped me out countless times with all sorts of technical issues.
Haven't flashed yet but I'm right about to, its great to see another well known dev here on the N10 forums making us all a fantastic new ROM! I have heard only good things about you and your work mmuzzy, thanks for starting up here with us! I'm sure all us on the N10 forums will greatly appreciate your work into this build and will be excited to see future releases from you. Thanks again man!!
downloading now thanks for the great sounding rom. have your gnex rom on my wifes phone right now and about to rock this on my n10. im gonna wipe my internal "SD" as im being plagued with either not charging sometimes or tablet wont wake up. ive been loyally flashing PA's rom with every update and i think its time to try this bad boy out. as the others have stated, will post any discrepencies i find, if any.
I'm going to flash your ROM too! It looks to be exactly what I'm looking for: clean, fast, and stable. Until I really get a feel for my new Nexus10, I'm not ready to fight with some pre-alpha, nightly ROMs at the moment. Just wanna cruise on a buttery highway for a while! Your work is appreciated, keep it up
@mmuzzy did you get yourself a N10? Nice to see you here...
Hi Guys,
Been an HTC guy, all my Android life. Thinking of picking up my first Sammy with the Sprint's version of Note 2. Just had a couple of questions about software and ROMs:
1. Are you guys expecting a Port or Updates from the new S4, coming to the Note 2? If so, when? Or if they've been ported already, can someone point me to the ROM or mods for those?
2. Been familiar with Sense and AOKP/CM10.1 for some time now. Never used TouchWiz. What are most of you driving with here? TouchWiz light and snappy enough with balance of pretty to be used as your Daily Driver, or are you guys AOKP kinda guys here as well? Either way, can you make some ROM recommendations for a new guy? I'd like to experience the Sammy experience, before moving on to AOKP, if possible?
Any other tips you can give me before I switch? I will be switching from an EVO LTE with CarbonROM running on it. Thank you for your time.
It's pretty much a 50/50 when it comes between TouchWiz or AOSP. There is already an s4 system dump.
For Rom recommendations I would suggest if you want TouchWiz stay on stock that's my opinion. And if you want AOSP is suggest CyanogenMod.
PAC rom is good too but for me I love simplicity. So that's why I'm currently on stock right now or CyanogenMod

I was an HTC guy before coming to Sammy. I can say I wasn't all that thrilled with Touchwiz, compared to Sense.
I ended up ditching Touchwiz for Nova Launcher and a couple extra widget paks (HD widgets for clock and Android Pro Widgets for Timeline aka Friendstream and Contact favorites).
I am very happy with this combination.

I was the same at first, but in the long run, I actually Prefer TW to Sense. By miles. Stock TW is (usually, with perhaps a small bit of configuring) faster, and makes more intuitive sense (haha).
AOSP is of course loverly, but TW has a few features w/o totally obscuring Android that I think are ok, even worth it.
Thank you everyone for the response guys!
Just was wondering that I should try out TW for a bit, since I have never used it daily before. The gimmicky features from Sammy on the S4 though... like the Camera app and gestures and eyes thing for scrolling... do you guys think those will be/can be ported to the N2?
Thanks again for everyone's input... getting excited! Just not sure if the N2 will be too much of a phone for me to hold LOL!

Those are coming to our device either this month or next month. And before this device, I as a big time rooter, but I say stay stock, it has everything you could ever need.

I too switched from HTC for 3 years.. And I can say I haven't been happier!!! Tw does take some getting used to after sense, but none the less its every bit as good as sense IMO... If I want a tweaked stock tw ROM, I suggest checking out the lab rats ROM.. Its pretty cartoonish stock, but the updater is chocked full of themes and different apps. Its been an amazing ROM. I used to be a flashaholic til the rats came my way. Not to mention they gotta be the friendliest, goofiest, most entertaining group of devs I've seen yet and as for requests, if its possible its usually pretty quick turnaround and they enjoy all they do probably even more than we do!!! Give it a shot and I can almost bet you will keep coming back to the lab!! Of course this is just my opinion, but there are many more who share it!! As well as, of course, some that don't..

Everyone,
Thank you for your wonderful responses. I just brought home the N2 and it's a MONSTER !!! LOL!
I do want to stay TW for a bit though... so can you guys recommend the most UP TO DATE, and MOST CUSTOMIZEABLE TW ROM with hopefully the LEAST about of bugs and MOST amount of speed? (LOL! I know, talk about Eutopian demands, right !?)
An example of that ^ from the EVO LTE world is Team Venom's ROM...
I will Root though,because I need apps like Titanium Backup to fully set me up on the new device...
Thank you again for all your help! Looking forward to loving the Sammy world !
And oh, for the folks saying that GS4 camera and other features are coming to N2... do you think there will be some features that will NOT work on the N2 for Hardware or Kernel (firmware) issues? Thanks again!

Thanks again for the responses guys. Tried my first few ROMs last night... JellyBomb... LabRats... Nice ROMs, but they are too "modded" and touched for my taste...
What ROM can you recommend that's kinda Stock, debloated, keeps the original spirit of Stock at it's heart, with performance enhancements?
Is Synergy a good one?
Also... what's the later build? M7 or something after that? I am forgetting the name right now ...

Hey sparytrainor,
Thank you for your response. Per your recommendation, I tried the Lab Rats ROM, but found a NUMBER of issues with them:
1. I didn't like the annoying PnB Bootanimation, and tried changing it via their built Customization app, but it just booted into Recovery and did nothing ...
2. The kept prompting an update, annoying
3. Flashlight toggle didn't work
Just seemed way too customized to me, without a whole lot of value for those changes.
I am now trying Stock MC2, Rooted and DeOdexed, but I can't seem to boot in. TWRP says, it needs to fix Root permissions at the end of the flash and in both cases (Fix or Not), the phone reboots and sits at the Samsung GN II screen...? Am I missing some firmware requirements here?
When I get that ROM going, I hope to debloat it with TB, and find ways to tweak it a bit, like find a Battery mod or something maybe...?
Thanks again for everyone reading my thread!

OK, in the updater, go into settings and select reboot type and select the recovery u use. This will fix the reboot and install not working.
Also there are fixes in the updater for all the other issue u mentioned with the ROM other than the flashligt , which I use one from the play store anyway..
Check out the updater website for previews of the mods and themes.
http://updater.team-nocturnal.com/labrats/
And as for the other issue, mine says it needs to fix root sometimes as well, but I swipe to fix and everything goes fine. If you didn't update to mc2, u may need to. Here's a link for that as well..

Thank you again, friend, that seems to have worked !
Couple of follow up questions:
1. In the LabRats ROM, if your Swipe to Capture function working?
2. Is there a "safe list" available for the apps I can uninstall to de-bloat?
3. If you run into a faster, less bulky ROM, please share with me , thanks!
Actually that goes for everyone else, as well. Please share your thoughts and inputs if you happen to have some cool ROM recommendations for TW ROMs that are the lightest and the fastest an least buggy !
Thanks guys!
You'd have to search around for a list of what can and can't be removed.. Or u can do like I did and make a backup so if u remove something that breaks the ROM, u can restore ur backup in twrp and be right back where u started..
Swipe to capture has to be turned on in settings. By default it is off.. I used it to take this screenshot for u..
As for a debloated ROM, you might do well with nowiz aosp in development section..can't get much more debloated than that..

Couple of questions bro:
1. What's the eye icon in your screen shot in the notification bar? I never get that...
2. What theme are you using? Link to that theme and other cool ones like it? (I love Red themes )
3. As for the swipe to screen, I've had the right settings enabled, but for the life of me, I cannot get that feature to work ... Even tried it on a friend's stock GS3, nothing. Saw videos on YouTube as well, mimicking the same thing, still no go ... wonder what's up?
As always, much appreciate your kindness and help !
We can help a lot more if you post in our lab rats thread.
I removed about as much as I could without complaints. I personally would remove more, but I wanted to keep the users happy. I would remove s voice, email, calender, Google search, Google now, voice recorder, and voice search. Themes are in the updater and screen shots are on our Web site. All PATB can be removed via the updater.
The eye is smart stay that you must turn on. Flashlight works perfectly fine for everyone else as well as swipe to capture.
Thank you sparytrainor!

I loaded the 4.3 leak and its smooth and runs great but I don't notice anything else but the flare/light lock screen, not even a themed out dialer or more features with Messaging app, like more bubbles or background options. I really was hoping for a revamped UI for TW but samsung kept it the same. Might as well just call it 4.2 since we didn't see 4.2 on our devices, except the i9300. But as I play with the leak on my phone its just too boring. Sorry but Samsung had us skip 4.2 to give us 4.3, I know its just a leak but how much different will the actual release be? not much.
That's why I flash CM roms to give it a different look on my phone. So glad I rooted my phone. Any way I thought I just vent a bit on the so called update that looks totally the same as 4.1
Yeah this is exactly why I'm going Nexus 5.
But I don't think 4.3 had many visual changes aside from the WiFi connection bars and tabbed settings. That being said it definitely brought along a vast improvement over GPU rendering, better battery life, and overall smoothness.

Yeah you're right. far as smoothness it is better. far as visual its not attracting. But the phone runs faster and not a big fan of toggles. I hope to get on the N5.
That's the thing, not much change from 4.1 to 4.3 visually, even with stock android. Trim support should keep or system running smooth tho

Thats true sometimes all those apps that come with the rom I never use. But I don't understand whats "knox" and I do like the samsung apps like calendar, notes, music apps. I just hope that if we ever get TW 4.4 I hope that at least it'll be an nice minimalistic TW UI. that'll be nice to see that. I wish I was good at programing. I can do images, icons but not good with coding. Hopefully we can see a google style TW UI. I just think that TW should go another direction and lean more towards a google style UI. Flat colors.
I beg to differ due to the fact that I'm not bothered by the lack of aesthetic changes personally. I'm fine with stock 4.1.2 right now so the overall performance improvements are a good enough upgrade for me. I wasn't expecting Samsung to change much anyways.
Biggest plus imo is group messaging. I haven't run a TW Rom since getting this phone until now. I was fine with asop, but the Wi-Fi calling is another big plus with TW.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
Thanks guys for pointing out some things I didn't noticed. I never used group messaging or used wifi calling. I guess everyone has a thing or two with the update. I use my phone in the most basic way, I mean basic. I make a few callings, text mostly to people and try to customize my phone to look cool. I mean thats it. I don't use really the other special features that comes with the phone. Maybe Gmail and on occasion the web. I just like to try to make my phone look different. and love trying out roms.
Well, if this article is to be believed, (http://www.phonesreview.co.uk/2013/11/12/galaxy-s3-android-4-3-update-pulled-note-2-delayed/) we may not get the OTA update for a while now. Funny how I don't read about most of these issues in the 4.3 leak threads- I just wonder if it's because most of us do a factory reset because we're coming from another ROM. Maybe Samsung needs to make a factory reset mandatory for a major update like this.
I like it...
I personally like the (leaked) 4.3 update. I did use CyanogenMod for awhile on my S3, but there was just a few too many bugs that never seemed to get resolved (camera issues, audio issues), which ended with me going back to TW. I like the transparent notification bar with 4.3, and the fact it seems to (so far) be smoother than 4.1.2 was, with better battery life as well.
Most likely I will get a Nexus 5 after the holidays, because I personally love stock Android, but I will miss wifi calling.

It does appear to be affecting our release, but I believe ours to be relatively free of the issues in that article. (We've had a few problems, but it's only been for a few people). Just keep in mind they are talking about the I9300 in the article, a very different device from ours.

The only issue I've seen is the keyboard and lack of kernel source. Other than that all is well with the current leak itself IMO, so the official release shouldn't be too much to wait on.

We're at the middle of the month and hoping that the actual release would come out but don't know if it will. Plus again, its the TW I do like it but its just not a lot of fluff for me to keep it on. I like making my phone look different thats why I keep trying out roms. I'm on MIUI because it looks awesome especially with the themes.
I did like KITKAT 4.4 from CM but it still has some bugs. I'll probably try it out again. My friend is jumping ship from his GN2 for the N5 he's never going to see the 4.3 update anytime soon.
I wish you all good luck with the 4.3 drop..even sprint didn't get theirs on the 6th like they were supposed to.
Nexus 5 will be here in..3 days.

Should I be sad or happy?

I loaded the 4.3 leak and its smooth and runs great but I don't notice anything else but the flare/light lock screen, not even a themed out dialer or more features with Messaging app, like more bubbles or background options. I really was hoping for a revamped UI for TW but samsung kept it the same. Might as well just call it 4.2 since we didn't see 4.2 on our devices, except the i9300. But as I play with the leak on my phone its just too boring. Sorry but Samsung had us skip 4.2 to give us 4.3, I know its just a leak but how much different will the actual release be? not much.
That's why I flash CM roms to give it a different look on my phone. So glad I rooted my phone. Any way I thought I just vent a bit on the so called update that looks totally the same as 4.1

Well At Least You Know Your Updated On Firmware Somewhat
Well, the last leak is working perfectly for me, I was hesitant to switch from Dirty Unicorns back to TW, but I tried it and I'm really happy with it. The icons seem to have a better definition, the UI is a lot smoother, different lock screen options including the light effect swipe to unlock from the S4, different setting menu (tabs), toggle tiles and Gear support. Yes, Gear is working perfectly with the unbloated knox free leak. The Gear is now getting all notifications with text to read due to software released that you can flash thru Odin. Stock keyboard isn't working yet, but shouldn't be a deal breaker, I use swype anyway. Overall, I love the last leak and can care less if they delay the official update.
I'm loving the 4.3 leak.
Bluetooth is finally working properly for me. No more connection glitches or horrible crackling audio in A2DP.
Google Voice properly integrates with the new call log.
Lock screen improvements are very useful to me.
Notification improvements are great and work more reliably with Knock+2
I just wish I could find out if ANT+ is truly enabled as was reported for the international version. I can't seem to get it working.

Its possible there could be a couple of reasons it wont work. If its rom related, then its probably just not been implemented in this roubd of testing. Much more likely though is it is probably because of the kernel. the kernel used is the AT&T kernel from the oldest leak of 4.3, UVUEMJ2. Either too many changes were made, it wasnt yet added, or its implmented differently in tmobiles kernels.
Isnt it a wifi technology? or is it used via bluetooth? if it is wifi, as i seem to recall, itll definitely be kernel related. the sole reason for using the older AT&T kernel is wifi doesnt work with tmobiles, so if it is a wifi only protocol, thatd be the most likely reason.
hope that makes sense!

I think it's most closely related to bluetooth low energy or 4.0 .
Hi XDA'ers,
I've just received my shiny new S4 mini and I've subjected myself to an hour of the new touchwiz. Lets say I'm ready to move back to Cyanogenmod. What I'm after from you guys is advice about which version of CM I should install for maximum compatibility. I've noticed that there is a bug list for KK which doesn't seem to be changing much. Is CM10.x better as a daily driver as I tend to use most, if not all functions whilst I'm out and about.
Looking forward to any helpful replies

I've used cm11 and KK roms since they were released, i personally find them really stable and good for a daily driver. different strokes for different folks though

Cheers dude, I installed the KK serranto last night and so far so good. Apart from camerra zoom and a little glitch with the headset (from everything I've managed to test so far) which was resolved by unplugging and replugging to solve, its been a good experrience so far.
Same here! CM11 as my daily driver. Camera zoom is generally a bad idea though because phones like this do not have a mechanical zoom so any zooming you do is actually just cropping that part of the image and then enlarging to fit your screen's viewport. Similar to taking the picture then zooming in.
Not something which can be fixed by any software updates essentially

Hi, I tried to use cm11. Everything was perfect, except extremely battery drain. I think my I9190 does not enter deep sleep mode. How can I fix that?

Use a custom kernel and BatterBatteryState to check what keeps the phone awake.

I would wait to install any Android 5 rom on anything. Its VERY Buggie on every Nexus device that has it.. So i would assume atleast wait until 5.1 or above is Release and see how it goes. My Nexus just freezes for no reason. other times it gets so slow its nearly not usable ..Yes its on a STOCK Factory image from google.
Been running this one for about 12 hours:

Using the 12/12 update.
no major trouble, only downside so far are no rear camera, and screen cast doesn't find my Roku, not sure if that's a bug or not.
Missing some of the customary CM personalization, but for an early rom, seems pretty stable.

Weird. I keep hearing that but my Nexus 5 is smooth and fast and totally trouble free. I sideloaded the OTA back in November when it was released and haven't had a lick of trouble at all. I'm also totally stock, not rooted, no custom recovery.

I Think its some kind of sleep or cpu throttle Bug.. I can be using it just say on google plus. All of the sudden the screen will freeze . Sometimes go back to lock screen. Only fix is to push power button on and off to toggle the screen a few times then its ok.. It Does seem to Run apps faster But seems the UI Is a bit slow.. I Thought i had a bad flash so i re- downloaded from GOOGLE And fastboot flashed totally stock same outcome.. It Could be my Device who knows. But i have seen others complain as well. Lately i do not use my nexus 7 much anyway. I have a note 10.1 2012 Version .
Other thing I do not like the new drop down notification thing. The two sided one was MUCH Better. I think the old list type settings menu was better as well. Someone needs to remind google we are not Children or icon yuppies.
Anyway i think my comments here are off topic as this is about the note 2. My note 2 is running stock rooted 4.3. I just see no need for custom rom on it at this time...
Thanks for your Opinion. as said maybe its JUST Me..

Thanks for the tip Was just coming to take a crack at that kernel, then I noticed the new rom by Team UB so I decided to give it a go. It's a decent, well rounded rom, and the rear camera works.
That brings my issues down to one, still can't throw screen to Roku, but I can't blame the developers for that.
