Well I purchased a couple of i927r's from newegg, got them updated to ICS, rooted. Decided to go with JB rootbox as it seemed to be what I wanted, simple, effective. Just got both phones activated on ST recently, so far been liking them. But a couple issues I am having with them are primarily related to the digital keyboard. I don't really plan on using the physical keyboard much...the phone was at the right price so I guess it's there if I need to use it. But whenever I try to use the digital keyboard for mms, email, searching I hit one letter and it closes. If you keep tapping the word, the keyboard will come back up, but eventually closing again, usually a few keystrokes later.
Both phones do this, both have the most recent rootbox update via goomanager and teamwin. I would post this in the dev thread, but alas I do not have enough posts to. I am searching, but I can't seem to find an answer. I do like the stock digital keyboard, maybe I should try a different one? Anyone else have this issue? The physical keyboard is okay, but I prefer the digital one even on the smaller screen. Thanks for your time.
Have you tried different keyboards.just saying you can try Swype? Or another from the market and see if it still does it.

The default keyboard crashes when used. It is recommended that a third party keyboard is used until the bug is resolved. There's a fair number available on the play store. Avoid any that are directly based on the jelly bean keyboard
I just rooted to 4.4.2 vinar and have 2 issues. One. The s pen no longer works. The air command does not appear when the pen is pulled out nor does anything happen like it usually makes a sound. The pen displays a cursor over the screen though. The second issue is the "Ok google" feature stopped working. It was working great when I first rooted, but now it's not working at all. It works, but not the ok google, when you speak it. How do i fix these?

Vanir is AOSP. All Samsung software/features do not work since you are not on a TouchWiz ROM. Not sure if Vanir comes with two different launchers like some other AOSP ROM. You may now be using the one that doesn't have the OK, Google feature. Clear the default for the launcher or hit the Home button and select Launcher, not launcher3.
As a sidenote, you 'flashed' Vanir, not rooted.

Sorry, I'm not too in depth with the terms. I'm using the "launcher" not launcher 3. Also, I do have the one that has the ok Google feature because it was working for me, for some reason it just stopped working... If I could get the ok Google feature to work as well as the air commands, I'd be happy. Is that possible to do with another rom maybe? I saw that there is an official 4.4 update coming OTA in the next week or so. Would I be best just unroot ING and going with that? My phone is rooted.
No problem with terms. We all here have been a noob at one point. You can try to do a factory reset to see if that fixes your issue. Or reflash the Vanir ROM Never take OTA if you want to keep flashing custom ROMs. Let the devs here do their magic in bring a custom 4.4 TW ROM. Also look in the general section where someone post some apps to simulate the Spen features.
Hello everyone, after trying many 4.4 ROMs to find one with the features I want that worked good on my phone, finally I found AOKP and everything seems to be pretty solid, however what is up with the pathetically lame lockscreen? I can't even set up custom slider shortcuts or anything. I would just like to be at least able to have a shortcut to camera, gmail, and messaging on the lockscreen but this one apparently doesn't offer anything but unlock or enable widgets (which I don't care for necessarily). Am I missing something, or did they just decide to go with the lamest lockscreen imaginable for this ROM. I tried so many options from the Play store but they are all so buggy and don't allow me to use my home button normally. Ughh its so frustrating to come so close to perfect after trying so many different ROMs. Thanks for any help or suggestions!
UPDATE
Nevermind I just found out the camera is really glitchy and slow, so I'm giving up on 4.4. Went back to CM 10.1 which is the only non-touch wiz rom that can seem to get it right. I wish CM would release CM 11 for Note II oh well guess I'm stuck.
cm11 is out. just in unofficial version. and if you want a 4.3 rom, try an older version of aokp. which can be found on there web page. either way am pretty sure theres a rom out there that does what you want. you just need to do some searching to find whats available for a note 2

Screen off during calls
Just installed this for a friend yesterday. While she is on a call the screen turns off and stays off. She has to pull the battery to end the call, is anyone else experiencing this behavior? She downloaded an app to test the proximity sensor and the app showed that it wasn't working. I'm assuming that these may be related.
Keyboard Changer
Thanks dev for providing us with LP 5.02
Was running the 0105 build before the 0118 came out. Clean flashed the 0118 build and I was not able to change the keyboard, it keeps FC.
Main reason why I want to change it, is because the stock AOSP keyboard doesn't have swype typing functioning. The option is there (gesture typing) but it doesn't work. I would have to install the google keyboard and use that for swype to work.
Also, probably not a big issue but the google play movies & tv doesn't work.
Great ROM thus far though, thanks!
Failed to flash
I was trying to flash up from 4.1.1 is there extra steps I need to take? I also have a 4.1.2 modem.
I got it flashed after updating twrp. Next question is there a task manager? How do I close open apps?
I love the look of this ROM, but every time I flash lollipop on my T0ltetmo, I get Google TV and Movies force closing repeatedly. Has that been fixed in the new nightlies? What can I do to track down the issue?
T889 Note 2 constantly rebooting
I have just installed the ROM on my tmobile Note 2, and everything was fine except for the fact that is constantly returns to the android splash screen.
System profiles bug
Any chance you guys can fix the system profiles bug where WiFi fails to turn on if the profile also turns on Airplane Mode? I think you inherit it from a CM bug (BACON-1188, can't post a link) that has been ignored for a few months now.
I'm pretty sure the fix is as simple as moving mAirplaneMode.processOverride(context); up by ~10 lines in doSelect(Context context) in frameworks/base/core/java/android/app/Profile.java (line ~750) , but I can't currently get 5.0.2 to build at all so I have no way of testing.
My experience after a day on Nameless
I was running a stock Samsung Android 4.3 ROM on my Note 2, which had become so slow and unusable that I finally took the plunge and switched to Nameless. Here my results:
Used TWRP 2.7.2.0 without any issues
Followed the instructions on the OP for wiping and formatting
I used nameless-5.0.2-20150201-t0lte-NIGHTLY for the ROM
And gapps-lp-20141109-signed for Google Play
The whole process went really smooth, and everything came up fine the first time. I was ready to claim victory until I decided to add a second Google account (I keep two separate accounts, one for Personal and one for Work).
Right at the end of adding the second account I suddenly started getting dozens of Google Play Movies & TV has stopped working popups. First they came really fast and then slower and slower until the Note 2 eventually froze up and I had to take out the battery to restart it. Once the system had booted up the same thing started again, Movies & TV endlessly crashing until the system was frozen after about 1 minute.
The third time around I managed to quickly navigate to the Apps settings and disabled the Movies & TV app (since you can't uninstall it). Before I could finish it froze up again but this time after restarting it was good again. Interestingly it didn't actually disable the Movies & TV app, but it looks like it had wiped its cache, which must have been enough to get it back to stable mode. I have a feeling adding the second Google account synced something into it that messed it up. However, on the Work account that I added there are no Movies or TV shows at all, but my Personal account has some.
Just thought I should share this since it doesn't seem anyone else mentioned it on the thread yet. I'll post again if I hit any other issues. This is my main phone and Android device which I use all day long, so if there are issues, I'll find them
Thanks a lot for providing this ROM, other than my small issue it's like a billion times faster and better than before, awesome!!
Does anyone know how do I get the headset volume higher? It is kinda low. Everything else seems perfect in volume.
The ROM is perfect!

I had the same thing, but was able to fix it by wiping the cache for the Movies & TV app in the App settings! If that doesn't work for you and you don't really need the app, you can also Disable it in the App settings, which should keep it from trying to launch.
Day 2 experiences
This is a follow up from my previous post with day 1 experience after installing this ROM.
I've been seeing some graphics rendering issues which have led to the device freezing up requiring battery pull
Sometimes when scrolling in Google Chrome the bottom of the screen looks all scrambled, but refreshes and looks fine once I stop scrolling. No lock-ups from this.
Games that play video ads are my #1 problem. If I'm lucky the video ad will play but the colors look all messed up, a mix of black and white and green flashing. If I'm unlucky, the video won't play and the device freezes up instead.
Any way to fix this?
I also had an issue with the keyboard Gesture Typing not working, which I resolved by installing the official Google Keyboard app from Google Play and use that instead of the Android Keyboard (AOSP) that came with the ROM, even though they look and work exactly the same and have the same settings. And even though I didn't have any issues, I did the same for the Google Camera app, where I installed the Google Play version instead of the built-in one, even though it looks and works exactly the same.
This ROM is awesome! I waited until last week then made the jump, thought I'd let all you "release freaks" deal with it first. Except for a couple of crashes in the first two days this has been very stable. Everything works for me.

You can use the AudioFX app to boost the volume for your headset, that's probably the easiest way if the regular volume control doesn't go loud enough for you.
Thank you but I already tried that by turning up the EQ to the highest. It's hard to hear someone if the surroundings are loud. I have been using the speaker to get by at work.
NamelessRom 2.0
Why is there no OTA update integrated within the settings. This Rom is great one of my favorites. We as users should be able to get quick fixes and updates as soon as they're released. The quicker we can get these updates the faster we can help make this better, faster, and truly more efficient.
Otg is not working and screen cast is not working . any fix available ?
Update:
screen cast will work through Chromecast app but will not when using the toggle .
Otg works but device must reboot to use it the second time
Are there any kernels with sound mods . I tried boeffla control but it stated , not supported .
Update: AGNi pureCM OC v3.0.3 works great it's found in the N7105 forum
Gear S wont pair to Samsung Gear App
I installed this rom on my phone and I have a gear s and I have read other posts trying to get Gear app to work on Lollipop.
I got the app installed successfully, but every time I try to connect the watch to the app, it says "unforuntalty, HostManger has stopped"
What can I do to get the watch to pair up with the app?
ambiant display
this question is for those running the latest version of this Rom (31/03/2015). has anyone gotten ambiant display to work with this update?
Nexus 7 (2013) Running latest lollipop
I keep tablet in car essentially permanently. Landscape mode. I decided I wanted to optimize the setup to mimic a modern car system. Tablet through Bluetooth in car and tethered to my phone (still have my Verizon unlimited data ).
I use mighty text to sync texts from phone. I don't bother trying to take calls on tablet.
I'm using apex or nova and customizing home screen primarily by enlarging icons and removed dock altogether.
I'm 80% there. My last step is what I'm struggling with. I want multiwindow. Ideally divided similar to some cars... Where you might have navigation on large screen and tell smaller screens with text and music, for example. Floating, resizable windows would be best.
I've read and watched tutorials using xposed and modules like xmultiwindow, xhalo, and others. I have xposed installed but I can't get modules to work correctly. I imagine this is due to the alpha nature of xposed with lollipop. I really like the idea of floating windows. If there was a recent version of omnirom or paranoid I'd gladly use it, but I can't find anything newer than 4.4.4.
So, hoping for suggestions. If I was a developer id make an optimized ROM to suit these needs and share. Call it autoROM or something!
Thanks as always!
