Not sure if anyone wants this or not, but here is the entire /system from the release firmware of the VZW Note 2. It's mostly useless at the moment, but I'm sure people can figure it out. If you use this for anything, I'd appreciate at least a mention in your post about it, though it's kind of hard to track just deodexed stuff. Nothing has been done to this other than deodexing and archiving. Enjoy, and if you download, I'd appreciate it if you sent a few $$ via the donate button as this is quite a large download.
Download Me
NOTE: This package cannot be flashed to your device. It is meant for people to work off of for theming and/or other development related use. If you're a standard user asking "How do I use this?", then odds are, you don't need to worry about downloading it. It will save you time, and bandwidth on both of our parts.
Thank You, donation sent!
I'd thank you but currently your thanks meter is 1337 and I don't want to be responsible for ruining that.... I'll come back later
Welp... Done ruined your Thanks meter but you earned it

It can't be flashed atm. This is for developers to build off of.

hard brick,
otherwise i wouldn't ask
my "usual" testers all are out of the 30 days return policy
That's what I figured. I'll check my receipt when I get home in like 3 hours. If I'm still in the 30 days I'll give it a go for you.

If these Glas T protectors were not 35 bucks I would be game, hard to take the risk on that kind of cash though.
braway said:
I need a tester
please pm me, if you fulfill the following criteria:
- you own your phone less then 30 days/have phone insurance and you are willing to return & replace it with a new one (or you have too much money)
- you own the at&t i717
- your flash counter is not 0 (meaning, you flashed a recovery or a kernel using odin)
- you are willing to potentially brick your device (thus the return&replace)
- your phone has cwm installed
Thanks
PS: chance to brick the phone is 50:50, even though I'm pretty confident that it won't brick...but I won't guarantee anything...

I wish I saw this before dropping my note off at the UPS store a few hours prior to your post. I meet every criteria except for the 30 days thing, but I was sending my phone in for a screen flickering issue. I'm gonna call samsung up to see if I can intercept my package and get my phone back. I'll let you know if I'm successful.
Thanks for all your work.

I am posting this here also because we are donating to him so he can get a Verizon Galaxy Note II. So, if you want to chip in and help, since he will be developing for you guys also, feel free to donate here. Thanks.
We are at $284 already thanks to all the donations from Sprint GN2 users. You Verizon people need to step it up He will be bringing you guys AOSP also. Don't be leeches... lol.

Hey man, give us a little time. Some of us are still a little shell shocked. Remember, we just got charged for our devices
Not saying his work isn't needed but been following these "lets get this guy a phone thread" and some have put a rom out.others just got a phone. Some made an awesome rom, then stopped and moved on.. just my 2 cents... but hey hope you get what you need.
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app
I've also seen my fare share of donations gone bad, so I can understand the skepticism. However, if you were to look at sbrissen's body of work you'll see that he still supports aosp on the fascinate. That should speak to his longevity to a device. Not to mention if sprint users are willing to donate to get a Verizon phone to a dev, it should speak to their work.
Please don't assume I'm trolling here. Just wanted to at least suggest that this dev won't disappear if he gets this device on your network. Figured the more devs the merrier. Carry on; enjoy this awesome GN2.

I am looking to bring my GS3 BoneStockROM to the Galaxy S4. I don't own the device so I am looking for some willing testers.
I would like to eventually sell my SG3 and get a SG4 but currently don't have the money.
If you are willing to test please post or PM me.
I want to try and bring over a few features that I ported such as Blocking Mode and Call/Message Block that we should have but Verizon decided to take away.
I have them both fully working and ported to their rightful Verizon applications for the SG3, and would like to try and possibly get them working on this phone as well.
It's very cumbersome building a ROM/MOD/theme/etc. for a device you don't own, as things can't get done nearly as fast, and sometimes not at all. Having some willing to test, we can ideally link up on Gtalk to help move things along.
Thank you for your time.
I can test and help out if you need. My donation link in my profile is my gtalk. Won't be available tonight but I can test and debug whatever.

This post on Reddit, shows a claimed "fully operational prototype" that the OP's father received from a friend who works for Samsung.
Here is the about screen.
I worked with the poster, over the weekend, to pull a system dump:
http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23060877490004987
The .rar contains the MMCBLK's, as well as the contents of /system as requested by Metallice in the original xda thread.
Please let me know if anything else is needed.

They have a notice on the site that download counts aren't showing properly on the page. Im sure somebody has grabbed it. Plus, DL been going pretty slow for me at least, on any mirror not getting over 250KB/s thats like almost 2 hrs, lol
Im sure someone will chime in if it is useful, either way, thanks for the work on getting it put up, you never know what can help things along.
change the title to " here's the unlocked bootloader dump 2gb" potentially

I don't think he was ripping anyone saying he's "owed anything". Just exhibiting frustration on a locked bootloader. I too had hoped Sammy would not have gone this route, and more development would continue. Those of us on VZW should come to expect this now, as they are nazis with the bootloader. Bootloader unlock is not a selling point for me, but it does make it more fun.

It is frustrating for those of us on ME7 not to have an unlocked bootloader, but I for one am grateful for the options we DO have right now... you can still root and use Xposed to customize to your liking or use Safestrap and flash a decent amount of roms. I will keep waiting patiently for someone to find an exploit, but in the meantime just shut up and enjoy what options we're even lucky enough to have. You picked Verizon, did you really expect freedom?
I just want the apps Verizon denied me
