Kit Kat Touchwiz ROM ? - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II

Hello,
Is there any kit kat touchwiz ROM available which is somewhat stable? I would like to be able to use tap n pay. I have a Verizon NOte 2 with such a ROM and it works great. I am upset that it is so hard to find a ROM for the tmobile phone.
I guess Tmobile never released kitkat for this phone?

Lol .. :sly:

Use S.W.A.R.M (Stock) or Test Rom 1.2 (it has some S5 apps - does not have wifi calling) follow all instructions for installing.
Sorry SWARM isnt KitKat. Rom of Thrones is - which is the base for my Test Rom 1.2 - Good Luck.

Thanks,
I did try test ROm and my wifi wasn't working. I now know that its because I needed to update my baseband .. Which I have now done. SO ill give one of those a try.
I also understand that we can load AT&T roms on this phone as long as we are using the T889 Radio,,, so I am looking at those roms as well

Yes. You can also try AGNi Kernel if Wifi still isnt working. From my experience 4.3.0 is the best so far.

I had to flash the wifi fix. Im not sure if flashing a kernel would have fixed my wifi problem. As I understand; the issue is that my phone has the original bootloader that it was shipped with. it doesnt have the 4.3 OTA bootloader therfore I had to install this wifi fix.
SO now I have a Tmobile T889 running an ATT touchwiz rom... I have working LTE(LTE worked with Tmobile roms too). To get the LTE to work I had t flash the latest tmobile radio. My Google wallet tap n pay works again. I am extremely happy about this setup!
Oh... and I am using AT&T go as the service... not Tmobile

Yes flashing a kernel would have fixed the wifi. Flashing the patch wouldve probably made things worse to be honest..now the only way to revert the patch is to odin back to the original firmware...
Im on 4.1.2 Bootloader myself. Havent upgraded to anything above that..i only flash kernels and the modems. Works fine for me. Only issue is the charging while phone is off doesnt work.
Which Rom did you use?

There are three prerequisites for getting wifi calling to work using an AT&T phone.
#1: Unlocked Phone
#2: Tmobile Sim card
#3: Flash a Tmobile 4.2 or 4.3 Jellybean M919 Touchwiz based custom or stock rom.
Once you have met those three requirements your AT&T phone will have wifi calling.
Good luck!

Just wanted to add, use the kernel and modems that are meant for AT&T even though you are running a TMobile rom.

No need to change modems, none of the cwm/twrp flashable zip file roms contains modems and
he needs to use whatever modem he already has, flashing a tmobile modem will most likely cause
signal loss since it's related to hardware and the AWS frequencies on the AT&T phone.
Get it to work?

I have an AT&T S4 myself on T-mobile now and I cannot find a combo that works. I cannot install a recovery on mine without Safestrap and while I can flash rom's with this method, I have yet to find a combo of roms and kernels where everything works. I either get a rom that will not boot at all or a I get one that will boot but no wifi whatsoever (cannot turn on Wifi). I've tried Safestrap 3.65 and 3.71 and a dozen or so roms and kernels and still no combo that works. What I can say is that 4.2 based roms at least boot.

T mobile network with ATT phone

Hi guys, I just came from ATT to tmobile. I have hotspot service with T mobile, However it doesnt work on my unlocked rooted ATT samsung S4 with MK2 on stock 4.3 rom. Is there anyway I can get this work? any helps will be really appreciated!
Flash Wicked v10 followed by loki-doki.zip ... Other Tmobile based roms will work with hotspot also.

Is there anyway I can stay on stock rom? or maybe with t mobile stock rom?
Wicked v10 has stock ROM options. I'm sure there is a very close to stock ROM out there that will serve your needs. Wicked v10 installer allows you to flash all the Tmobile stuff you want. If you want to solve your problem, flash it. Otherwise, search the forums for yourself. Go to here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2295557 and look for the Tmobile 4.3 or 4.4 ROM that suits you. Just don't forget to flash loki-doki.zip after you flash the ROM. Happy hunting...

MIUI V5 ROM KitKat 4.4.2[Touchwiz] Version: 4.11.3(V5)

Rom is developed by a Chinese developer and all credit goes to him and i personally very thank full to him.
And like to many Thanks to the Developer of Echoe Roms, only his developed kernel works very fine for my M919 with MIUI ROM
I got this Rom from official MIUI website, as Galaxy S4 I9505 custom roms can be flash on S4 M919 Tmobile version but all we need to look for Kernel to boot the rom and work flawlessly, so i have flashed this rom which is generated for I9505 on my Galaxy S4 Tmobile M919 but few issues were there from which wifi was not working so spending time on net and look for kernel and flashed few but could not get working one and then finally got one which works like charm. Rom is totally in English after Selecting English language for first boot
I am using this rom from one week and almost every thing works
Calling
Bluetooth
SMS
Camera
NFC
Wifi
Wifi Direct
GPS
and i am pretty sure others must be too
I love MIUI and i was happy to get MIUI for my M919 so like to share this rom who love to have MIUI on there Android devices
Flashing Method
Flashing method is same like we use to flash every rom, only after flashing rom do not reboot, flash Kernel first and then reboot.
I am using TWRP v2.7.1.0 and others recoveries will work too
I have change my model number in my Build.prop file, because it will show I9505 and you guys can do it too, just google it, it easy

[Q] LTE connection on 5.0

When I used stock Kit Kat on my Note 3 it always had problems connecting to LTE. You would always have to disable the radio and then enable it again to connect. No matter which update from Jelly Bean on, it was never fixed. It caused lots of problems with Texting/MMS and other Data connections.
For a long while now I have used Effortless Rom and LTE connections have worked flawlessly on his rom. No problems with Texting or MMS or other data connections. It just works.
Is the LTE switching and connecting been fixed on the Stock T-Mobile Lollipop update?
Anyone who has updated to Stock T-Mobile Lollipop, if you could kindly comment on this would be greatly appreciated. I really don't want to deal with my phone not sending/receiving text/mms and the browser not connecting while on LTE again. Having to toggle Airplane mode on and off was such an annoyance.
Thanks.

I'm having this very problem on the new 5.0 update. It's so frustrating and random. I have to do the Airplane Mode trick also. I really hope this gets sorted out.

Are you on Stock ROM? I am on TEKHD's URv2 ROM and I have no issues. I didn't have that issue on DomPop either. I think its best if you are on the newest firmware and also flash per directions.

Come on over and give DomPop URv2.1 or DomPop v.5.0.8 a try. Make sure you update at least your modem to FOB6 and you shouldn't have any problems. We have great service and LTE connectivity. Just to make sure, you do have an N900T Note 3 correct?

Yes N900T and latest modem, CSC, and everything else. I'm on DomPop URv2.1, but I've been having a different LTE problem on THAT ROM now, lol. I can't connect to Netflix on my mobile network. So weird

[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.
