anything available in the root department yet? or the knox removal for that matter?
not a big deal what languages are available though, more concerned about the root and knox, but gonna flash the rom itself tonight to see if dutch is available as well.
It's only just out so nothing custom yet. I've messaged wanam requesting him to work his magic. Hopefully things will start rolling soon.

it takes a while to get their touchwiz working completely for a huge list of different devices and in all fairness 4.4 came not that long after 4.3
as soon as samsung manages to deliver 4.4 with touchwiz, google has released a new android version again so samsung will always be lagging behind
too bad the camera in aosp roms isn't compareable to the stock samsung one otherwise i would've been on 4.3 aosp or 4.4 already as well, its one of the only things actually holding me back of flashing aosp roms ^^ (also sound in some roms is kinda low by default)

his xposed module works in 4.3 roms though ^^ been using it on the skynote 3 rom
but i'm gonna flash the stock rom later today and wait till there's root and such, untils it becomes available. don't believe its impossible to revert back to 4.1.2 stock if i want rooted stuff ^^
Anyone knows is there a stock Stock 4.3 TW for Korean variant？

don't think so honestly, otherwise people would've succesfully done that with the skynote 3 from the at&t thread
also no root available yet, but as soon as root becomes available, you can use devilkernel,
currently i'm using skynote3 (at&t leak) with devilkernel ^^ but rather have the official as i reckon that one is more bugfree than a leaked rom ^^
you could try if the skynote3 rom is more to your liking, it works (mostly) but there are some bugs present, it has root and no knox.
Can this ROM be installed on a Korean Note 2 (e250s) with a boot converter?
I mean if I can use N7105 modem?
Thanks.

As far as i know,the converter is only used for AOSP.Can it be worked for TW?
i only need root for "greenify" and filemanager. but i definitely need recovery.
most the apps i use dont really need root. but i wouldnt want a non rooted phone. funny enough

what's android kitchen? still got around 30 min left on the download but could look into the android kitchen stuff.
my rom officially is from t-mobile netherlands, but i do not specifically need a t0ltetmo rom as the only thing different for my device when flashing my stock rom is the t-mobile apps and the boot screen from them.
its not like i have a special contact app like AT&T has or anything like that in my stock rom.
GT-N7105 (t0lte) is the one i'm normally aiming for, the rom released for nordic countries doesn't look carrier specific to me either. reckon the only thing that i do need root for is the language enabler, don't know if netherlands is unlocked as a locale by default. I did run stock unrooted rom the last few weeks until someone pointed out last week the at&t 4.3 leak worked on the 7105 models as well, so i got myself root again and installed it. I don't really run any other apps that require root normally.

i've tried the first omnirom 4.4 when it got released but the camera didn't function at all for me, later i read up and noticed that most 4.4 issues where related to twrp recovery, flashing with cwm 6.0.4.1 should've worked but was already playing with skynote by then
its not just quality though, its the fact that samsung has a built in anti-shake option, and i can't seem to get steady shots without it, my hands are shaking a little bit and i can't seem to keep my device steady enough without it. (haven't seen that option in the aosp camera's)
camera worked on 4.3 aosp roms for me, but i didn't like the quality from those, and again the shaking of the hands didn't help either

as far as i read up (including the thread it linked to for the 7105 and such) you need to be rooted in order to flash the rom after you customized it with the kitchen.
as the kitchen creates a flashable zip and not an odin flashable file.

We can't do custom roms without a custom recovery (cmw or twrp). I don't think custom recoveries are available yet. Unless you know something I don't (and that's very possible since I don't know much - lol).

Do you have a metro pcs mega? And if so, did you odin flash twrp on your phone?
I want to be sure before I try because I bricked my metro pcs mega the day I bought it and never got it back working. I had to go back to MetroPCS and get another one. I do not plan on bricking the one I have now. I don't want to take a chance until I know I can recover it from a soft brick.
Without having a firmware that can be flashed in odin, I'm scared to try anything.

Yes I have the Mega from Metro Pcs. That's why posted the link to the other thread.
Yeah, I rooted and and installed the recovery than was like hmm probably shouldn't have done that with out there being a firmware release but oh well. I'm wild that way.
I instilled it through Odin. the only file from that link I used was this one.. http://goo.gl/J5JAH0
Tested Working 100%
I downloaded the attached file, put phone into download mode and flashed the recovery via odin 307. I fully booted the phone and then shut it off to reboot into recovery which is now replaced with TWRP.
Now to see if I can find a lighter ROM something like extremesperia. I haven't seen any multi-carrier roms for this phone so I am not sure what will work.
I also used the backup feature and was able to backup the entire phone.

any of the gsm roms are likely to work on the metro mega, the CM 11 build definitely will as it works on the canadian mega that i have which has all the same specs as the metro mega. the only reason to get the canadian mega in the past was because it was unlocked without a locked bootloader.

I wouldn't go that far tbh...I'd be somewhat cautious as at least on my note 2...there are several variants and all have the same hardware, but run into issues flashing roms incompatible to your specific device. It's kinda guess and check as I've seen i9200 which is the 3g mega intl have a few minor apk issues vs i9205 lte on my rom alone, much less larger issues like framework and data structures or kernel variances between intl and carrier based. Just heads up from someone who builds for several different devices and hardware configs. When it comes to carriers sometimes it's hard telling what the hell they're doing lol.
One thing major is for carrier based devices of any kind, the biggest thing is the modem...If you flash an intl you may lose the carrier frequency.

I installed Validus-lollipop on i527m and it actually works.
The only problem was the extreme battery drain. Like 1% ---> 1m 7 sec if using wifi or lte.
The solution is easy (use GSam battery monitor): there was a bad kernel wakelock.
If you don't use your mega for touchless paying, just delete NFC.
Find com.android.nfc. Force stop it. Delete cashe/data. Remove. Reboot phone.

I'm pretty sure there is no version that is compatible with our HAM2 on Lollipop, yet.
Perhaps we have to modify the build.prop again?
Which reminds me, I still have yet to root my phone.
I have tried the build prop theme changes and about everything I can think of ...both versions for 5.1 hang at boot.
It took forever for xposed to come out for Lollipop because that's when Android made the official jump from Dalvik to ART. Then it appears that certain manufacturers modify the ART runtime on top of that.
It looks like Huawei is one of those companies. Samsung also did it, but they have such a huge fan base that they had a dev that came up with a work around. It's possible that someone will do the same for Huawei eventually, probably for another phone or tablet that could possibly work for us, but I wouldn't hold your breath.

I looked into it and it will prevent booting. Likely to do with emui. Tom is waiting on kernel source so he can make a stock rom. Xposed will then work. Patience is key.

Whilst on the topic of xposed, does anyone share my predilections for Kitkat over Lollipop ? Everything seems to work on Kitkat !!

Yes, in fact, I tried to go back, but my internal sd card is broken on anything prior to Lollipop now. So I'm stuck.
Tom was originally going to make KK first. Maybe with the new kernel release he can out something together.
WHat ?

@ArkAngel06 are you saying that once we update to lollipop we can't go back, or is it that the internal stroage does not get formatted back to the way it was w/ JB ?
TIA Davinci

Anyone elses quote/multi quote and other buttons missing on XDA???
Anyways, I tried to do it the lazy way and it doesn't work and it breaks my internal SD card. I tried to do it the official way and install just fails.
You may have better luck.
@medwatt people keep mentioning a KK build....B148 is the only build I ever see prior to b309, but b148 is JB, so what build is KK? I have always been on 4.3 prior to 5.1.
@ArkAngel06
My quote buttons gone as well, I just got caught up on your other thread discussing this all.
Won't the new twrp 2.8.7.3 L take care of this with the new check script?
keep us updated I'm working 16 hrs x 3 days so no real play time.
Tomorrow I might attempt a 4.3 downgrade. Getting real tired of the bugs, and I dearly miss Viper and Xposed. I have root but didn't flash TWRP so hopefully the official way will work.
Today I even did a factory reset but it seems to have made things worse somehow.

I am using the new unified TWRP, here is what I have tried, with the outcomes.
Use unified TWRP to restore a JB backup I made before LP>>>Won't boot, just boots TWRP over and over.
Use unified TWRP to install Xordos' b148 flashable>>>Boots, but internal SD card is unwritable.
Use old JB version of TWRP to install Xordos' b148 flashable>>>Same as unified TWRP, broken internal SD
I also had a lot trouble doing the official downgrade. Most of the problem was me not reading the instructions, and thinking I just had to throw the b148 dload/update.app on my sdcard, but there is alittle more to it than that. Also, i think you need to have the newest stock recovery installed. I tried it with TWRP installed, obviously it loaded TWRP instead of the stock recovery and failed. I then flashed a stock recovery that I had on my PC, thought it was the new one but I could be wrong, but that also failed. So I just did a full official LP upgrade again with the LP update.app, that gives you all the right stuff and I was then able to do the official downgrade.
I just did that like 5 minutes ago and it appears to be working! So, it looks like its going to be a loooong process going from LP to JB, or vice versa. Wish you could just use TWRP, but I don't think you can.

You know, Viper works on Lollipop? You have to install busy box, install the viper driver, disable low power audio, and start the app after every reboot, but it works!
Sigh. OK I will get the step daughters CC and make a flashable rom.zip from it. Didn't really want to go back to messing with roms much but it looks like there is a need. Can't do it tonight I have a sick 3 year old. I will tomorrow. Maybe afterwards I can make a flashable L zip to make going back and forth easier. Haven't done the L flash yet... But looks like cake walk. Sadly it will overwrite anything you have on the phone.

Ark, from what I have looked at xposed will not work with emui lollipop.

Do you think the Viper driver will fix my stupid audio cutting out bug? If it will, then maybe I'll stay with 5.1.
Edit: Actually, thanks for reminding me. I hate the whole "start apps on boot manually even though it says start on boot" thing.
I received the 6.0 update tonight. ~788MB download and 20 minute install.
Things I noticed differently:
-Response and fluidity seem better, might be due to it clearing the app cache
-Notification bar is smaller, this is a plus for me
-Messages in the message app are smaller, this is a big plus for me
-Everything LG wise has a more flat material design to it. Looks better than before but still iffy
Will update in the future about the battery usage.

1 of your pics says modified, did you already root it?
Any link kdz ??
Wow... can't believe the VS985 already has official MM coming this quickly. That's so unlike Verizon to get updates out this quickly.
I'm also shocked that VZW released it so early. I'll be waiting for a KDZ so I can upgrade the G3.

Yeah, if you DID root it, how? Curious because I need to keep root for TiBu.
Oh and @snoop5 also posted a link to an article from Android Authority stating the VS985 6.0 is being pushed out.

Thanks!
Still the same terrible signal and WiFi icons, huh?

I did not. I was rooted versions ago, that was taken away with the 5.1.1 update, but it kept the 'modified' status.
I can look into root for it. The link Bradg24 posted helps. I'll see if I can get recovery on the phone in an easy way.

Rooting a stock ROM, and having a version of SuperSU that will work on it are two different things. That's not a root method unless you:
1. Already have root/TWRP.
2. Have the new ROM as a flashable zip.
If so, then after flashing the ROM then you can flash SuperSU.zip.
This isn't what people are looking for when they're looking for a "root method".

@2kool4u526 can you test the auto brightness on this release? On 35B in a dim room the built-in auto brightness made the screen too dark to be useable, although using Lux Lite from the Play Store rectified that.
Thanks for the info.

You'll have to get root before you can attempt to install TWRP. Keep in mind if it screws up your boot with a secure boot error, you might not be able to fix it until they release a KDZ for 46A, if 46A's Download Mode doesn't allow flashing older KDZs, just as 35B's didn't.

Too bad it's not like Samsung with being able to flash a custom recovery via USB through Odin on a PC, at least that's how it used to be with Samsung before Knox - now I don't know.
I've tried looking into if it's possible to build our own KDZ but I never got anywhere. Since there are tools to extract them there must be a way of building them, although they might contain some kind of manufacturer signature to confirm they're official when flashing them.
Wi-Fi Calling?
Can anyone confirm/deny if this version has any WiFi calling capabilities? I know Verizon rolled out this capability for the S6 and said they were going to update other Android handsets in 2016.
Long shot, but I figured I would put it out there...
do we even have any devs working on stock verizon ports anymore? i thought holyangel and hasbadr stopped working on this device

Define "anymore". @hsbadr , @HolyAngel and @xdabbeb all released 35B-based ROMs, and the only one of those three who's phone situation changed since then is @HolyAngel 's.
Before the KDZ is available (or rooting a stock build of the OTA at a minimum) it's too early to find out if anyone will release a ROM based on it. Heck, if no one else did by some miracle, I would, based on what I learned from @hsbadr and @xdabbeb.
Only those three devs might know if they would update their ROMs, and we shouldn't ask them. Either they will or they won't depending on if they feel like it.
(I know you weren't asking them so please don't get upset)
i know hsbadr didn't have the phone anymore when he did 35b.
Really hoping we can get a Jasmine update for MM, I mean maybe someone can make a poll showing how much demand for one there would be?
Yeah idk if I'll be supporting it or not at this time, at the least need kdz or system dump.
