★ Note 2 Development Thread ★ *Kernel/Rom/Mod/Recovery/N2 Chat* - reopened
This thread is reopened, the entire Moderation Team is fully aware of this re-opening and will be watching closely.
Discussion will remain ON TOPIC. There shall be no discussion or mention of any members who are no longer contributing here or anywhere in XDA.
The intent of reopening this thread was to continue the discussion about DEVELOPMENT for the Note 2. :highfive:
If you are not here for that, then please, move along.
I have a feeling we're going to need Hash for the Note 3. Also had I not went back to a Note 2 I would have got the S4 since you guys got Hash on board. Now those S4 guys need to get DHacker a phone to get AOSP going through SS. Another person who will probably develop for S4 SS is nitroglycerine since he is very familiar with Moto SS using his Eclipse ROMs. Sorry for OT but it was a good thing you and others did for the S4 guys. In a sense glad they get to taste what us Moto lovers have been dealing with for a while now. I think most moto haters/Sammy lovers thought it would never come to locked BL's on their devices.

So true. Tons of hate from the Sammy community in the past. But I still understand their pain. That's why I got Hash involved.

Hello fellow Note2 users! Ill be here to assist my good friend Obsidian in maintaining this thread. Just as he has stated we would like to keep all "Off-Topic" statements or random questions out of the Developers Threads and get them moved into here. Questions like what Kernel should i use really shouldn't be posted in Jelly 'Beans' thread for a multitude of reasons. Every device is different. Every kernel will act different on each device. And the thread is really about the ROM. This way it keeps the thread cleaner and we have one location for us users to congregate and hang out! We can discuss different ROMs, themes, kernels. WHATEVER! Or just shoot the breeze!
I'm always willing to help out with what i can! If you need something please don't hesitate to ask!
There is no such thing as a dumb question. There are such things as a dumb question being asked 100 times however! So do your research, the search function works great! Google it! LOL
You can hit me up on GTalk (Hangouts) at [email protected]
Or on twitter @freddy0872
My Device History:
RETIRED: Droid 2 Global, Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1, Motorola Droid Bionic
CURRENT: Nexus 7 (2012), Samsung Galaxy Note 2
I'm glad to be here and I look forward to meeting you all and discussing basically whatever may come up in here!
OK one thing that is driving me crazy. How can you set the same image for lock screen and home screen with out it jumping after you unlock the phone.

Do the following
System Settings>Display>Wallpaper>Home and lock screens
That will allow you to always set the same paper on both Home AND Lock screen
Let me know if that is what you were looking for.

@Obsidian... i was glad to see you were able to get Hash to help the S4 users out! Thats what this is all about! Even helping those out when you dont even have the device! Im rather curious how hard it would be to merge it over to the N2. The thought of booting from ROM to ROM in a matter of seconds again makes me miss my Bionic in SOME ways. Well OK one way! but still LOL.
Thanks for creating thread! I too came from the OG Droid, D2, and D3 and left Moto due to many issues and lack of quality.
It's great to hear that Hash is working with Sammy devices! Safestrap is awesome... Hope we can get some love for Beans and the N2.

Kitkat will be the next version of Android after JellyBean. As you may or may not know new versions of Android are named by dessert/sweets and in alphabetical order. The order goes as follows:
A was Astro
B was Bender
(The first two were never released to the public)
C was Cupcake
D was Donut
E was Eclair
F was Froyo
G was Gingerbread
H was Honeycomb
I was Ice Cream Sandwhich
J was Jellybean
And finally K will be Kitkat

Ya the one on the release looked somewhat appealing...even though of course there wasn't much to see lol. And I actually am thinking that I wouldn't have so much of a problem with having a bit of a smaller phone now that I have a tablet. Before, I wanted a nice big phone. But I could sacrifice a half inch or maybe just a tad bit more....maybe...IDK!!

Hopefully I can get some help in this thread. Thanks for setting it up.
My issue is with the camera/camera preview.
If an app needs to use the camera to take a picture, it doesn't show the preview of the photo after the picture has been taken.
For example, in the Bank of America app, when I go to take a picture of the check for check deposit it doesn't show the preview of the picture for me to accept it or take to take another if the picture came out blurry.
Another example I came across is with the CamScanner app. If I take a picture to scan it to a .pdf, it does not show the preview of the picture after I have taken it.

Trust me you didn't miss anything. Basically a "Faster" phone, and a "Better" display. Oh and a weird leather back. More than happy to stick with the Note 2 especially since the Note 3 will probably be as locked down as the S4 on Verizon.

I think i posted before in the wrong section:
HI all, i recently purchased a ATT Note and love it. I have come back to droid after being on the iphone for a while. I fell in love with the screen. I almost sided with the Galaxy SIII due to the performance being so much better but the display model Note was not running ICS. So i got the note, brought it home and got it updated. Its a great phone, i love it. Especially for me being able to remote into my work computer and assist end users in troubleshooting. I am getting close to returning it though and getting the GSIII due to it being just so much faster. Is there a current ROM available that improves performance? There just seems to be so much lag when opening things up and when typing. The GSIII also has a nice screen but is noticeably smaller to me and that was a drawback but the performance is really better to me and things open instantly. Thanks for any input! I apologize for any repost i did a search and did not really see anything, Thanks for any help!
No, no ROMs exist for this phone.

Was it just me, or is there really that much of a performance improvement? It seemed much much faster than the note...
What are all the roms in the development section for the Note? Maybe i am using the wrong terminology...
I am looking for something with great performance and the largest screen i can get right now, so i guess that would be the GSIII, huh?
try the ipad
Lol
The note performs fine but spec-wise the GS3 beats it one way or the other (whether you have the international version or a variant).
To me it sounds as though you updated your note OTA and that's just going to cause you problems.
There are plenty of fantastic ROMs for the note here - whether you want to dabble with GB, ICS or JB.
Start reading.
I suggest you begin with the everything note sticky.

Thanks for some actual help. My last droid was a capitvate. I had to go iPhone for corporate email and such. They are finally supporting touchdown so i am back on droids. I did the update via Kies. I have some basic info now from few people (and you now, so thanks) to get started but my basic question is answered and that is the performance ca be improved so i dont have to switch to the GSIII. Thanks so much!
Performance can be greatly improved. Try flapjaxx uclf6 or hotwires for ics as both provide overclocking. HAve had great success with DaGr8 gingerbread with oc.
I haven't personally tried any of the other dev's roms but have read about them and it doesn't seem like you could lose with any of them. it is just all a matter of what you prefer to have feature wise.

What type of performance increase are you looking for because from personal experience (my brothers GS3) my note was running flappjaxxx's uclf6 rom and my phone was much snappier and responsive ..and the apps we ran side by side..pretty much a toss up on any graphical difference...now if he roots and roms his phone it might be different ...but I gotta work on convincing him(he's terrified of bricking)...good luck hope that helps...

If you must leave the Note, I suggest the One X. The screen on the SIII is pitiful. And, to top it off, I just left the One X for the Note. I can't tell any reall speed difference. The One X is, however, the sleekest and best built of the new "regular phones". I've heard multitasking complaints with the One X, but I never had any issues. By the way, I haven't sold the One X. I'll still be playing with it, too.
I've read a few of these threads and I've owned both the SG3 and the Note and my brother has a OneX. The performance difference is negligible with the right oc kernel, of which there are several to choose from. And the rom support for the note is off the charts. In my opinion your note is just as good as any phone on the market right now.

If a camera is VERY important to you, the One X camera beats the other mentioned phones hands down. There really is just no comparison.

Then i suggest that you take a break from these forums. Its obvious that you are burned out and bitter. It even would have been better if you were to tell the op to search or call his question premature, but you went straight into telling him there were no roms and that he should try the ipad.

jamie's temper is not just out of the blue
if users would take the time to read the first 2 posts in which i update frequently then things would be different. but they dont so someone has to say something as im sick of reporting posts and users getting warnings its utterly pointless, so i speak up
99% of info can be found in the op's on how to fix issues, if it isnt search the thread everything has been covered and if all else fails www.google.com is your best friend, use it and abuse it. *then and only then as the op states, you are to post and in full detail your issue*
yet no one does even though its right there in the op.
when users flood dev threads with non-detailed fully covered 10+ times things, someones gunna say something it just so happens that it is me most of the time as i would like users to learn to fix their own issues when its not the roms fault THIS IS WHY THERE ARE THE FIRST 2 POSTS OF THE THREAD. other wise id just have a link to download and a picture and tell users to have atter. *learning is what xda is all about*
so dont mistake my temper as a bad thing and look at the big picture i give more thanks, appreciation and help then "temper" msgs
now maybe you can see where some of the stress and frustration comes from. and why other dev's have left over it.

The new update is cool except I lost the ability to make my status bar and navbar transparent. The way the toggles are represented is different and not really welcome. This has nothing to do with how you built the rom but I will stay on the Oct 2 build until my issues are resolved.

I have attempted to port MIUI v4 from StrumerJohn's Gs3 rom. I think I did it correctly but I was wondering if there was any insane testers that will help me out. Where should I ask? PM me if you want to test.
PS: I didn't touch the kernel or anything with Gapps so it will probably be softbricked or without GAPPS.

Thank you very much, I'll make a new post over there when I get home today and I will test it myselfbon saturday. If all goes well it will be up on sunday.

Can anyone give me a link to the IRC? I looked around the forums and I couldn't find it. It sucks being new.

Not to be a douche, but is there a reason why you're knowledgeable enough to port a rom but only have 5 posts on XDA and don't know what IRC is?

Very true, this is why I am hesitant to ask anyone to test it. I used alot of porting guides on xda and followed it step by step, but that does not give me any qualifications and I am still a noob. Lol I'm trying my best and it is really fun just to port and xda is a great community

Gotcha. I can't find a Verizon Note 2 IRC but here's the one for Sprint - http://webchat.freenode.net/ (found in this thread - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1981342). If you're unable to test your rom yourself, please share it with a developer or knowledgable user. Depending on what you've done, you could potentially brick someone's device and average users may be unable to recover.
Edit - the IRC may be for all GN2's. Just ask before sharing files.

Thanks man, I definitely do not want to brick any phones so I guess I have to find a developer

There is a general channel on freenode #galaxy-note-2 is the channel name. There tend to be a lot of VZW users there, don't think anyone has created a VZW specific Note 2 channel.
@Treken @hlxanthus and I are starting a new project under the team name OctOS.
I'm not entirely sure where the name came from fully. Treken and I were tossing names around for our collaborated git. All the super-cereal names were taken(like epic, uber, massive, greatness, betterthanπ^3, and manbearpig). Somehow we were talking about various animals and got on Octopi. I forget all the reasons for why an Octopus is cool, besides being able to camouflage, hunt, and ink stuff.
We could design our own logo(and will if we have to). But we are all busy working on our various projects for this and our current releases. Trek said I should post and ask the talented folks on here if they'd give it a shot.
So we need a logo, banner, and potentially ideas for future bootanimations. The logo primarily needs to be suitable for an aroma splash screen.
Basically, I'm sick of team logos that use:
block lettering from generic-fonts-r-us; anything morbid, death related, or dark/evilesque; lenseflares; seriousness(life is too serious)
I imagine it being a big cartoony googly eyed Octopus that is colorful and carefree.
If anyone wants to get involved with the project(logos, theming, or dev). Hit us up. We welcome anyone that's of similar mindset.
Why a team?
We wanted to work together on this and provide a great ROM with great user support. Too often you will find Devs(especially in teams) that are too good to answer questions from newbies, too proud to talk and discuss issues they are trying to overcome, and unwilling to help other dev groups out because it doesnt benefit them. We believe that Linux and Android are still community built and supported. Without sharing the information we gain we don't grow.
My friend Grommish has also setup a dedicated buildbot box for the project. Once we get rolling we can set scheduled updates. :good:
It's not so much about a team and banners as it is about the proven support the members give each other and the users
Info on the project:
The project will a source built, multi carrier, eventually multi platform, 4.3 AOSP based, Google Edition ROM. It will feature all the extras and mods that my current 4.2.2 build has and should be 100% stable in all the included aroma preconfigs.
Mod note:
I wasn't sure where exactly to put this as it directly relates to the Verizon gs4 first and foremost. Until we have the vzw version working the others will be waiting.

Not sure if I'll need this

The name comes from the Greek word "Okto" and Latin word "Octo" meaning eight. Eight is the number symbolizing new begining. We are assembling a team that is focused on advancement of android by working through problems together and overcoming any obstacles that may arise. It seems that there are some out there that are very haughty and feel like the community owes them. We want to change up the pace by offering a team that cares about not only finding solutions to problems in a ROM but listening to input the user has to offer because the bottom line is the user will remain loyal if they know their best interest is in mind. Hang in there, we're about to take you on an epic adventure that will for sure leave you satified.
wrx4memp is notorious for doing an outstanding job on bootanimations and he has helped many devs including myself with this.
He'd be my first pick for a logo.
Is this where the new rom will be posted or will there be another thread (or is there one already)

This is just to potentially get logos/splash screens made. :good: it will be posted correctly in original Dev when it's ready.
If not it's not a huge deal because we know how to use gimp and pshop. But we think some others could do a better job.

Just a suggestion! I like minimalistic logos, and here's a rough sketch on s memo.

Eight is also the lucky number in Chinese.
I know your said no serious, but octopi are pretty badass (cthulhu etc). Maybe over the top sinister to the point of being comical?

Well I just ordered my note 3 today. should be here by monday. First order of business will be porting my h20 rom over. and incorporating all the bells and whistles. for those of you who had note 2s you probably know who i am and for those who dont I just wanted to say hello! ive already started on a lot of mods but wont be able to truly test till I get my phone. well thats it and cant wait to develop for this phone too!
Almost forgot lol the reason I started this thread is because if you would like to be a tester please let me know and I will put you on the list. I will not open the h20 note3 thread in development until I have a tested stable version ready to go.
Good to see you're getting the Note 3.

yea was thinking about getting the htc one max, but after playing around with one it is bunk, and most of the problems with the note 3 will be addressed in the update being pushed out tomorrow, and the rest I will have worked out and fine tuned myself hehe!
I had a Note II for almost a year. Never heard of you or your work. However, glad to see more people on board. This phone is a beast.

if you click on the banner below my post for the h20 rom you will see what it was all about. I started out developing alot in the beginning and ported a lot of mods to the note 2 but after some drama I slowed production down a lot, and then work got busy. I'm hoping for a little less drama this time around lol. :fingers-crossed:

I had the note 2 and i remember wanting your baby. H20 was cutting edge, I knew you were going through a rough patch in your life. I hope it's smooth sailing from here. Would love to try out rom and still want the baby.

For sure. Same reason why I'm on hiatus from theming. Too much drama fo' yo momma.....and there were a few A-holes on my former team.
I'll come back eventually.
Good to see you here danweb66. :highfive:
Well my first order of business is to try and hijack a copy of mj4, and make a stock deodexed rooted stable base rom, then port all mods from the h20 rom and some new things to the mj4 base. after that is finished its just a matter of ripping all the icons and images out of the h20 rom and renaming and sizing them for this, and we will be up and running. I'd say this should be like a week endevor.:fingers-crossed:
