Hey guys, I have had my VZW Note II for a few months now, and I tried to root/unlock it a few weeks back but ran into multiple issues that prevented me from completing the process (specifically the unlocking posed problems, no doubt because of my own mistakes).
My question is, what is the state of G Note II modding right now? I came from the GNex (rooted) and it had a very robust community, but it seems like the difficulty with unlocking this phone might lead to a less vibrant set of options for flashing. Is this phone getting a lot of dev attention or is it not worth the trouble to crack?
This is subjective, I know, but give me your opinions if you dont mind! Thanks in advance!
This isn't really a subjective question. There are two forums that could answer your question. Development and original development. Take a look and see what you think.
I will say if you compare anything to the options on a nexus device you'll be disappointed.

I have been shot down when I post questions in the dev threads, but do you think this is an acceptable post for them? I have no doubt that it will be less robust than Gnex, but I figured it might still be worth doing for cyan or AOKP or whatever. Anyways, thanks for the tip!

DO NOT POST YOUR QUESTION THERE! This is in the right place my point was go to them and look at the different ROMs. If it is good enough for you or the is a ROM you want to try then you answered your own question

There is no good answer to this. What is mainstream for one person is early-adopter for another. The right answer is to do some reading in the ROM/kernel threads and decide your own comfort level. That you asked this question makes me think you should wait. I would say that dev for this device is still gaining traction. It's only been out a couple of months.

There are half a dozen or so Touchwiz based ROMs and at least that many AOSP ROMs. Add in 4 or 5 kernels and considering the we only got the bootloader unlock about two months ago, I think development has been great. In all honestly, I am not sure how many more ways ROMs can be tweaked...there might be some diminishing utility after 10+ ROMs.
I got my phone about 10 days ago, and had it rooted/unlocked within a few hours. I didnt have any issues at all getting it there. I made sure not to accept the VZW OTA update, and when I saw it was going to force me to update within 5 days, that forced my hand to go ahead and root it.
I just used the following guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2024207 to root it, and http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2043636 to unlock it.
If you have accepted the OTA update, your steps change, and you'll use http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2118348 to unlock it instead.
I personally havent messed with AOSP roms. Coming from GNex that was all I ran, and I'm enjoying a slick TouchWiz setup right now. I remember on my Droid Charge, having NO desire to keep TW, but it's a lot better on this phone.
I am a Charge refugee as well...what a difference the Note 2 is. I've run CleanRom and three builds of Beans. Don't think I want to give up some the the Touchwiz features for AOSP...at least until key lime pie comes out.
Ugh I hate these threads.
If you want it to be different stop being a little girl about it and go develop yourself. Nothing is stopping you but yourself.
If you want something that doesn't exist, make it exist or get an insane amount of money and back people to make it exist.

Do you feel better after that childish tantrum of a response? You hate these questions, yet you didn't actually respond to what I asked.
I am not a dev, nor do I want to be. I asked not as someone looking for features that don't exist, but as a user who wants to know how the note II compares to the gnex in terms of xda support.
Either answer the question I asked, or keep your whining to yourself.

My attitude? You began your response by saying that you hate questions like mine, which is not the most civil of ways to speak to a stranger.
More importantly, you still missed my question. I asked if it was worth my time to unlock it, I did not complain about a lack of dev support. It was an honest question which you ignored and instead responded in a rude manner. Thanks for nothing, a second time.

I'm not sure what this guy did to launch you into that insanely now cliche rant. This is Q&A not a dev thread. The OP did not ask for an ETA or request a feature or compare one ROM to another, or ask a question that could have been answered with a search.
Many people admonished the OP, including me, but you are the only who felt the need to rip him a new one. You could have just linked him to the XDA rules instead of going off like you did If the OP needed a refresher.
Maybe Q&A is not the best sub-forum for you if you can't assume good intentions. You have your own threads that you can patrol for slights real and imagined.

Your question was not worded very well to say that since you wanted to compaire it to the gnex. A quick look in the development sections shows what is available. My previous points still stand. Always see these threads at least 2-3 times in the 6 months i own a phone that isnt a nexus.

Sorry I've been around long enough yo get frustrated by people on this site. I've also been saying the same things for months and linking to the XDA rules doesn't make people care, giving them harsh statements do.
If OP wanted his question answered he could have searched. Plenty of info is available.
My views have become, if you haven't searched and then are asking why or if you should do something, you shouldn't do it at all and shouldn't ask if you should.
Search first then ask questions.
If you want to compare the Gnex to the Note2 development, all you have to do is look in both forums and see how many ROM/athreads are in the dev sections. Weather you unlock or not has nothing to do with it. Do it or don't.
In answer to the original poster, yes it is worth unlocking.
The beans and cleanrom roms alone add enough polish to warrant it.
The ability to take a nandroid is worth it. Everyone backs up their computer..... so why not a tablet
There is a kernel or two? That work with stweaks for cpu/gpu power control. A forum member also put together some nice flash able profiles for it even. If you want to increase battery or performance it's possible.
Depending on where you are at, one of the two available basebands may work better for you. That can't be flashed without a recovery....
Because it came with a locked bootloader of the start, there seemed to be a delay with devs because they first had to figure out how to unlock it to begin development. Now that is unlocked the wheels seem to be moving pretty good.
On a side note, if I recall correctly there may be a way to run international roms on it. You would want to research, I haven't really looked into it. Could be wrong.

The original modem has faster 3g for me, but the new one has better connectivity and speed on 4g. I wish we had combined modems with ie. 3g from one modem and 4g from the other.

Hey guys! Long story short, I unlocked, rooted and installed Clockwork as my recovery and it kept hanging when I was trying to do a backup.
I got frustrated and impatient so I just flashed CleanRom without doing a backup first. I love CleanRom and all, but if I wanted, can I go back to stock now that I don't have a backup?
Any info would be appreciated, thanks!
What is your definition of stock? Unrooted? Relocked? Untouched rom? Somemore information would be helpful to guide you in the right direction.
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using Tapatalk
If you want to go back to stock. Relock your phone and grab the RUU. It will put you back from whence you came.
Uber :facepalm
First and foremost read THIS from beginning to end. Stop posting questions in the Dev section...despite how special you think you are...you're not. Post in general or maybe searching is a great idea.
If you want a stock ROM here. To go back to complete stock you need to relock the phone and flash the latest RUU IIRC...

Most of the ROMs available are basically stock with minor, stable modifications. I feel pretty stock on ineffabilis and it feels true to the phone.

People posting in wrong sections and asking questions that have been asked about a million times get's very annoying. Have at it if that is what YOU want...if the OP would've used the search function, he/she would've found what they were looking for.
If you guys want to continue to baby people and spoon feed information to them then knock yourself out. If you post a new thread non-development thread in a development thread be prepared.
Jesus H. Christ on a pogostick, people. A "Development" forum isn't just for the Devs. It's also for people using the fruits of the devs' labors. Sometimes, they have questions. If they didn't, they'd probably be developing on their own, and XDA wouldn't need to exist. Sure, using search is advisable, dare I say it, recommended. But there is no reason to get nasty.
I've been a part of XDA since WinMo 5, and I left for a long time due to nastiness like this. I'm no developer. I just use what gets made, and I'm damn grateful for it. But there a reason XDA is slowly seeing a mass exodus to RootzWiki: Less (but still existent) dickery. Yes, what the devs do is a courtesy to the community. No, they shouldn't have to answer the sane questions repeatedly. The search doesn't always cut it, and it isn't always used. Wouldn't it just be easier to either quickly answer and encourage search usage politely or to quote and respond with a link to the relevant post? Even better yet, those of us that aren't devs but are at least semi-knowledgeable could give our service to the board and aid the devs by politely answering in their stead. Novel frickin idea.

If you took one peep at my first post in this thread I provided the OP exactly what he was looking for and more. I didn't just be a **** and exit the thread as I have seen quite a bit on this particular forum. Do you realize more than half the time the Devs aren't the ones answering the repeated questions?
Anyway..you guys can continue to cuddle each others nuts and babysit one another and provide no help to the OP.
I'll exit this thread by quoting one of the Rezound forum Moderaters:

As is stated, do not post your questions in development forum. Before you start a new thread ask yourself this: "is what I'm posting a rom or a kernel?" or "is this a guide for development?"
If it is none of those, then post it in another forum.

Anyone have any idea which Verizon phone seems to have the 'best' developer support? I am changing jobs and as such, my phone number is moving to their corporate plan which is Verizon. So which Droid device can I count on having a good group like was in here? I looked through a couple
Razr Maxx, Nexus, Bionic.
Don't know if anyone knows anything about that, but thought I'd ask. Don't want to get a phone and find that dev has died on it.
Ohhhh. Just noticed Verizon is getting the S3. Going to have to go read up in the S3 forum to see what the reviews are. I love my s2.

A lot of people have been on here a lot longer than me. I'm not looking for a "use this Rom on this Phone cause it's the best" answer. I'm looking for people who know other dev's and can say that "yea, the Nexus has a good group of Dev's" Or the Razr seems to be losing steam in Development.
Not looking for a straight answer, just opinions of what people know about other phones and the dev's working them if they know it.
Nexus phones usually do have better support but this honestly does have nothing to do with this phone. I've seen these threads closed all the time.

Getting a stock Amaze today.
Background: I've rooted, S-off'd, and ROM'd *other* HTC phones before and used ARHD on the Sensation.
I'm looking for root, stability, and good battery life. I don't care much about minor performance tweaks.
Is hasoon2000's all in one tool the best way to root today?
Are any of the rom's a big improvement over stock with no serious side effects?
I know there are FAQs and Wiki's, but I've also been around XDA long enough to ask before diving in to a new phone before I use possibly outdated guides.
Thanks in advance.
You've been around long enough... then I'm sure u can read the dev threads and judge for yourself. Recommendations are for the indecisive

Stop being lazy and whining. Try the couple/few (not like there's a ton) that are out there and make up your own mind.
Asking whig Rom is better is insulting to devs that may not get mentioned. Read OPs and threads and see if Any known issues are there.
But u have been around a while... I'm sure u know that
Edit.. looks like u run arhd on your sensation... That MAY be a good start don't u think?

There's loads of threads of roms with hundreds, possible thousands of post on user input about how the roms run, advantages and disadvantages, no two users would like the same rom, I preferred stock lightly modified by me while gg like quick Droid and Ziggy liked speed rom, do you think I can recommend a rom to them or its a better idea for them to try them out for themselves? I'd recommend stock but he obviously doesn't like stock or he wouldn't be looking for a custom rom, then what? I tell him speed rom is nice because someone said so but I have no clue myself? Like really, grow up, this is no place for childish questions and responses, there was no need for things to get all hostile here, your best option would be to try thing's on your own, if you can't make your own decisions from your own personal liking and experience, then you sir will settle for second best because of your attitude towards it
For the record, what others think about the support on this site, really doesn't matter, this place is for development, not support. We offer help when we can because as a human trait, people do stupid things or just can't keep their cool long enough to sort out an issue. Therefore count it a privilege many take the time out of their day and work to write the multiple guides here and the devs for releasing their work.

Didn't have to try...
On another note... Asking which Rom is better is a flame war waiting to happen and is offensive to the devs whose roms aren't mentioned. And since user experience and needs vary, you will never get a helpful answer. Mix that with all the fanboys in the amaze forum and u get a mess.. how do I know? Cuz there is already multiple threads asking which Rom is better than which.. I READ.
The correct answer is to quit being lazy, read, and try for yourself. Stop getting so butt hurt. I'm not talking about ur mother, just your internet bestie
Get over it.
Why is this thread still even going?

Here's something XDA is not about...It's not about this ridiculousness. I say this over and over again...we all are here because we share a common interest. What is there to argue, debate, flame, insult, [ad nauseum] about?
Thread closed until I hear from OP.
The rest of you know better.

#1 - DON'T ASK FOR ETAS!
#2 - DON'T ASK FOR ETAS!
#3 - IF YOU WANT IT SO BADLY - MAKE IT YOURSELF! DON'T EXPECT OTHERS TO HAND YOU A ROM ON A SILVER PLATTER DAYS AFTER THE CODE IS OUT.
(Stepping down from soapbox)
Anymore questions, m8?

Honestly I'm loving cm9 battery life is amazing and everything is crazy smooth. I can wait for jb

The simple fact that flash won't be supported on jb I see no reason to wait or upgrade to it. Ics is perfect enough for me
THE BOSS AKA THE BEAST !
Cyanogen has already stated in his roms thread in the development section that they are actively working on jelly bean for our device. Be patient and flash CM9 and be happy because this **** is butter.

"Key lime pie"
Kiwi isn't dessert food enough to fit the scheme
Pretty sure the Sticky topic that states "Post all JB Info here" will have some information:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1737889
It even states all others will be deleted.
I think we can be a little harsh on people asking an innocent question who don't know all the ins and outs and drama of these boards.
He didn't ask for an ETA, he asked if there was any word.. and he got the answer that told him it's being worked on and several others being borderline rude.
Man.. these boards are a wealth of information but sometimes, I shake my head at how people treat each other.
Just my 2 cents.. worth exactly the price of the brainwave it's imprinted on.. (lol)

True, there is thread on the general section tht has the jb thread, is the only one open since other threads will get deleted there so keep and eye on that and what knoxter said is true since jb is out everyone is already "working on it" as we speak. Cm9 for us seems go be very stable since no known bugs have been posted by the devs but the installing of it is weird since cwm touch can't be used and my experience.with Cm9 was tht as.soon as I installed it my.external.sd card went "missing" meaning the system didn't detect it had to go to stock bc all of mybackup root couldn't b Initialized. The devs said they are working on cm10 for us so we have to wait a bit

What he asked is in the realm of an ETA. It's a useless thread. People are harsh because crap like this clutters up the forum for no good reason. Also, it puts pressure on the developers, when we should just leave them develop in peace, as that will allow them to get jb working sooner.

Guys! Give the guy some slack! You're gonna scare him off. Like alot of us, he's just excited. Be happy he posted cause we all started off asking similar questions about our G1's or Hero's. Chill out on him! And noone is putting pressure on the developers but themselves. They do it cause they wanna not cause theyre being forced to. Half this threat is informative and the other half is DOUCHE! If you dont like that he posted it then send him a link to the OG JB thread. Done.:good:

We're not going to scare him off, he's got nearly 400 posts, I doubt he would leave because somebody told him not to ask for an ETA. And he should probably know that threads like this are useless. People have to learn somehow that threads like this should not be posted, period.
And you can't say people asking for stuff doesn't put pressure on the devs, as we've already had two top notch devs leave xda due to people asking too much of them and posting stupid stuff. If people don't learn the in's and out's of xda, more devs will follow.

Damn! They left? That's messed up. If i were a dev i'd tell people messaging me "either pay me a bill or two or just wait in line like everyone else" haha

Follow the instructions there. Be sure to run the .bat file as administrator, else it will install but not run correctly.
Would you please search before creating a new thread for every question that pops into your head?

Didn't see clear instructions on the N4 threads. You can always NOT read my post? Or continue to piss yourself off? Becuase my post have nothing to do with you or your life. Like at all. Take the chip of your shoulder and stop being a negtive force in all my post. Good Day Sir

So the thread titled: "How to use LGNPST on Windows 8" was no help at all? It didn't even require that you use the search feature.
Also, please post questions in Q and A.

Probably the most drama i've ever been trough over a phone. Guess people take this too seriously. A new phone comes out every 5-6 months i doubt half of you will even have this phone for more than a year, and to be responding the way you are is just WOW. All this for a phone you wont remember in 2 years. Again you're free not to read my post. Clearly im new to this "XDA" thing and know the bare minimum (root, cwm, cm10), hence the questions. Roms and roots were easy for my SGH Skyrocket, but is wayy more difficult for the LGOG for a newbie. Im learning though. Thanks to all of the chill people who helped in an appropriate manner. To all those who made having this phone living hell thank you too for making it clear that some people need a hug. Everyday. All day.
-Again thanks for all the helpful insights. I couldn't thank you enough

What you don't seem to understand is that no one minds questions, but asking a question, when there's a whole thread dedicated to the question (a thread that shows up 2-3 items down the forum thread list, from your) is absurd and does nothing but clutter these pages. Doing so makes people think that you are either too lazy to search for an answer or believe that your time is more important than ours, so we're supposed to provide the link for you or write the answer again. Why would you expect people to do either of those things?

We get that you're new to XDA. But given your age and generation, you should at least be somewhat familiar with technology (the fact that you are flashing ROMs and even on this website in the first place is proof of that) so we expect you to have a minimal understanding of forum etiquette. Like the guy above me said, the link to "How to use LGNPST on Windows 8" was just 2 threads away from the top when I posted the link to it in my reply.
Put yourself in our position. If EVERYONE decided to make a new thread every time they had a question that was answered 100s of times already instead of using the search feature or checking the stickies, just imagine how cluttered and unreadable this forum would be. We would be spending more time sifting through threads to find somewhat relevant ones. So basically you can see why we get a little uppity for threads like this.
Anyway, best of luck to you. Good job getting this phone. You're gonna love it! :good:
Since you're new you should have read the forum rules and watched the nice video XDA created that covers the basic forum etiquette like searching and not creating threads covering topics that have already been covered.
I think you need to go watch that video again, and stop breaking the rules. You're not making much of an impression with the members here so far, from what I can tell. To me you're coming across as both an asshat and not terribly bright. What you do from here on out is up to you, but I'd suggest a change in attitude would be a good start. Getting defensive and butthurt doesn't help your cause.
Start taking what we're saying as constructive criticism intended to help you conform to how things work here (even if it is delivered harshly). You'll find a lot of your questions have already been answered, and if not, people are willing to help if you ask the right questions the right way.
