The link in my previous post is in the verizon note 2 android development forum. It is built for tmobile and ported to Verizon.

Added video to OP. Android 4.3

great collection of videos to gain more knowledge, keep it up!!!

Do you have an unroot and return to stock video. I'm about to sell this phone and need to return it to stock.

Use droidstyle's guide. Section 1b has odin to stock. Use the vramc3 file and it will be on the latest ota and relocked.

After going through the unlock process on the Verizon Note 2, would I be able to then use a MetroPCS sim card in it? I went through the entire process in Casual, it said I was unlocked, but when i popped my metro sim, it wouldn't recognize it.
I'm guessing I either messed up somewhere, or it isn't capable of doing it.
Can anyone shed some light?

[IDEA] Port international firmware/ROM's to Verizon Note 2?

Considering the similarities between the domestic variants of the Note 2 and their international counterparts, would anyone be willing to test some of the success that the folks over in the AT&T forum have had with porting the international N7100/N7105 firmware/ROM's over to the Verizon Note 2
Check out these two threads over in the AT&T forum and see what you all think:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2016575
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2018411
The basic gist of the procedure is to use a custom recovery like CWM or TWRP to flash a stock N7100/N7105 firmware, and then flash your carrier specific modem/kernel.
Why would anyone want to do this? Well, for starters, you would benefit from built-in stock-supported tethering, and a few other features that carriers disable (YMMV). But mainly this means that the domestic versions of the Note 2 can benefit from the development of the international versions! So, when the latest version of Android comes out for the rest of the world, we aren't stuck here waiting for our carrier to catch up to everyone else...
So what do you all think? Anyone willing to try?
ba-ba-ba-BUMP.
What about integrating carrier specific apps? The Verizon version has a data usage app that works without logging into my Verizon.
I do believe that is what scrosler was doing here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2055218 and he said this in the features " Verizon Patch files in a flashable zip can be found http://www.cleanroms.com/downloads/Note2/VZW Patch for 7105 Base.zip This will let the ROM think you are a VZW ROM! Good for the Play Store and APN settings! " But.... He did say he was unsure if it works on other roms in his second post. You possibly could try it. : )
Thanks. . But I'm already using his VZW rom

Any chance that Scott's patch would work on the CM10.1 nightlies for N7100? If I try it, do I risk bricking?
Sent from my Galaxy Note II using Tapatalk 2
You risk a soft brick. Just make a nandroid backup first and you'll be fine.
Sent from my SCH-I605 using xda app-developers app
Just make sure you don't flash modems and keep a stock kernel on hand
Yeah since the hardware is nearly identical I think the most you would risk is a soft brick. The 7100 lacks LTE though so I'm not sureif you would have data on one of those roms. Tell us how it goes if you go through with it.

[Q] Waited maybe too long to root and custom ROM

I have a feeling I have waited too long to get on the task of liberating my prime to a custom rom. Maybe someone will tell me I am wrong.
My prime received the stock JB upgrade some time ago and I recently got the keyboard dock as I plan to start using it more. I have found on xda instructions to root and unlock my prime after I fixed the serial number. However I am unable to figure out how to install a custom recover and when I try to access the recovery from within the bootloader it just freezes. Any ideas or pointers? Thanks!

I'm guessing the silence means you can't ROM from the stock JB bootloader

does this work on 4.3? I just got a note 3 and it has 4.3 already. They must have patched up the wifi hotspot toggle because it doesnt work for me.

That depends in wha t" it means"

Need DE Tester for 4.4.2 leak.

Ok. I made a 100% stock rom based on the touchwiz kitkat note 3 international leak. I need a couple people to test it for me because I don't have a developer edition device.

You will need to install the kernal. Which SS does not do. Even getting it running you would have lots of issues with a 4.3 kernal.

It worked for someone on the international form I believe that he wasn't on 4.4.2 already.
EDIT:NVM I'm pretty sure I'm wrong after doing some research. You have to flash the bootloader (but don't, bad idea) Carry on.
