Is there a site I can download a zip to test using TWRP? If so, where is it?
Thanks,
Harris
Google "mate 2 cm13 unofficial".
Enjoy it but at your own risk though.

Make sure you have the right TWRP. The camera won't work. You may download GApps, which supports Android 6.01, before you decide to install CM13.
MAKE A NANDROID BACKUP BEFORE YOU DO CLEAN FLASH THE CM13.ZIP.
You may need backup your data with 3rd party app, e.g. Titanium Backup Pro, to be able to restore to CM13. TWRP may not work as you would expect.

It is a kernel issue. There is zip you can flash in twrp to get a semi working camera. Unstable but it does work. I will provide a link from my drive account.

I don't recall anyone reporting that issue. There are numerous versions of cm13 out there. By more than one dev. My experience was better with some of the earlier builds. Feel free to state what app you are using for video and such as it will help. Development has someone slowed because CM may be close to a release themselves. Noone really knows at this point. Some recent changes in CM have caused me to stop trying. Probably another reason the rest have slowed. Feel free to try the camera fix and report back. Again its buggy but does work.

I just flashed the CM 13 Dec. 25 by SHM. The camera app i flashed works well. i took like 10 photos and the all saved. I think i will uninstall the camera app the came with the rom. The video issue normally happens with facebook videos, youtube videos, instagram videos and snapchat videos but it seems to be working now. The snapchat camera does work but it takes about 45 seconds for it to come up after switching between front and rear camera and freezes often. With the instagram camera, it worked the first time i opened the app but wont work after. After about 5 minutes of messing with everything, Every app including the one i flashed says that they cannot connect to the camera and that i should restart the device. hope this helps

Yep. Reboot solves it until it hangs again. It has been tested for a month or so now. Some had better results than others. The camera it flashes works decently. Its just a temp fix into kernel is patched.
Which dev do you think has the best build? and which build is it?
For those wondering about using large SD Cards with MM, if the Mate will read and write to it, it should work fine. I am using this card http://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-Ultra-200GB-Micro-SDSDQUAN-200G-G4A/dp/B00V62XBQQ and it seems to be working just fine so far. Just got it and moved my stuff over to it today. Its a 200GB card but when formatted by the phone it shows as 183GB which is more than enough for me. I got it when they were running a special on them for $80. Right now they have gone up some as of 12/29 at 11:06 pm the card is selling for $109 with free shipping. For those that want to transfer a lot of music and videos to your phone this might be the card for you.

There are only two developers that I Have found that are make MM ROMS for the Mate two and if you search for them on AFH you can find them. They are Dargu and SHM. I use the builds that Dargu makes because they seem to be updated more Regularly, but you might like the builds made by SHM. I would suggest trying each one and seeing which one you like best and sticking with it or just flash whichever one is the newest at the time. Its basically a personal choice that each person has to make.

Best to stick with root built into the ROM for now.
THANKS!
Sure appreciate the work on a MM rom. 10 years ago, I would have been right in the thick of it, flashing every
new one that came along, but, anymore these things are "just a phone" for me. I've been lucky with mine.
4.3 was stable, 5.1 is stable. The only issue I've had, is that on reboot, the launcher (nova) won't stick, but,
I don't turn it off or reboot but once in a blue moon.
I doubt if we'll see an official MM for the Mate2, but if a really stable one comes along, who knows, I might
give it a try. The camera MUST work for me, since I use it pretty much daily (work images for engineers).

UPDATE 18-08-2012:
Nightlies have started showing up These are slightly more official than this one, but still based on our code!
Get them at http://get.cm/
So, it’s been over a week since JellyBean source dropped and we figured it was time for some fun news!
Code:
#include <std_disclaimer.h>
/*
* Your warranty is now void.
*
* I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
* thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please

* before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if
* you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you.

As I’m sure everyone knows, CM10 has been progressing at blazing speeds and we (on the AndroidRoot) team felt that it was time to show it off on transformers
It’s still early and CM10 has a good way to go, but it’s certainly usable! Note that this tree is what will become the official CM10 for Transformer Prime.
What works:
Wifi
Bluetooth
Sound
Camera (Photos + recording + panorama)
Video Acceleration (720p youtube ftw!)
Basic dock functionality (keyboard works -- second battery doesn’t show up)
3D Games
Sensors
What doesn’t work:
GPS
All credit goes to AndroidRoot team and CyanogenMod! We are the official maintainers of this device, so it can be considered a preview of what will later become official CM10 for the device.
More information and downloads at http://androidroot.mobi/?p=466
Edit: We've been asked to include download links so here goes: http://developer.clockworkmod.com/downloads/10504/3206/cm-10-20120718-UNOFFICIAL-tf201.zip

As usual, any donations people wish to give should go to AndroidRoot team: http://androidroot.mobi/donations/ and not directly to me! We do not expect donations, but we appreciate all.

CANNOT wait till i get home and flash this.
Running it now. It is running well and here are my observations.
On screen keyboard appears even though it is docked
It is running o nthe 2.6.39.4 kernel
As was stated, it does not recognize the dock battery, but it does list the processes under the battery tab.
Google search is running well, questions work most of the time, but sometimes it cuts of words at the beginning or end.
Keyboard buttons on top are not working (exception- volume, web)
No "dismiss all notifications". Was this a JB change or are we just missing it from CM right now?
As with CM9, when you close the docked tablet, you must press the power button to turn the lcd off.
In progress...
But it is super quick! I am always dubious of claims of ROMs, kernels, and tweaks making systems faster and better, but this is different. Thanks to the AndroRoot team for all their efforts!
Finally, it is out. I will unlock my device for it.

It's not a bug that it's running 2.6.39.4. It's a common misconception that various android versions require specific kernel versions.

Can I flash through CWMR?
So far so good
ROM is really fast, though it could be due to its light weight, it runs really smooth when change throw apps and home screens. One thing there is no gapps installed or you tube. i used the gapps from the cm9 nightly that they provide on there website and you tube on the market place is saying its unavailable for my device so not sure. i installed with cwm it works, also update su as titanium back up would not work until i did that.

Although I haven't tried it with this rom, either recovery should be able to flash this, TWRP or CWM.
Okay, so the voice recognition is a mixed bag. Sometimes it gets my question dead on, others, it may cut off half way through my question or pick up part of it. This is the first time I have used the mic on my tablet, so I am not sure whether it might be hardware or software.

Check the second post for JB GAPPS. It includes Youtube and the Play Store. I have loaded all my normal apps on there with titanium and I am seeing no change in speed so far.

demercie this thread is a good idea because alle the guys post on the unofficial builds threads when i have a news about the mayor fix of the nightly i post here thanks
I've been running the last of the UNofficial 10.1 nightlies, dated May 22. Other than no autorotation, it seems to run just fine. Once the Official nightlies started a few weeks ago, I jumped in and flashed a few, up to the 0629 nightly. In addition to the autorotation issue, suddenly my dock battery is not recognized, and I have (apparently already known) issues where both external SD cards are not recognized, on the device or in Windows. Checking the changelogs, I note that there have been HUGE changes/additions in the last few nights, so I figured I'd try the July 4 nightly. BIG effing mistake, UI crashes immediately, multiple error mesages, and I could barely get back to TWRP to restore my faithful 0522 Unofficial.
Thoughts on why the unofficial build works fine, but the "official" ones don"t? What could I be doing wrong?
Thx...

Did you wipe before installing? I know its CM to CM but like you said there have been lots of changes. If it still crashes then it's probably effed for the moment.

Sort of. I did do a number of cache wipes, but I admit I never did do a full wipe/ factory reset. I also note on other forums that the early July Nightlies are causing others some of the same crashes I saw, so I guess I'm not alone. We'll have to be patient
Aren't the Unofficial builds a port of the TF300 or TF700 builds? It would definitely account for the fact we're starting all over with features on the nightly builds as this would be a completely new tree starting from the ground up on inclusion of feature sets as the build comes together.
Been running the nightly for a few days now and it's been just fine for me. Of course, I did start off the entire 10.1 journey with a total wipe first.
BUILD cm-10.1-20130701-NIGHTLY-tf201
A couple obvious missing features to point out for those who may be just getting to this:
Auto-rotate not working
Dock/Keyboard battery not recognized
Function buttons on the keyboard not recognized (obviously)
Loading up the 0706 Nightly right now so I'll run through the motions later and give a more detailed outline of things I notice.
---------- Post added at 10:22 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:43 AM ----------
OK, cm-10.1-20130706-NIGHTLY-tf201 should be avoided.
When it comes up it immediately starts throwing System UI failures. Had to force power off and go into recovery mode in order to gain control.
Last known good for me was cm-10.1-20130701-NIGHTLY-tf201 so I rolled back to that from TWRP. Considering it's reported that this issue appears on the 0704 as well, I figured it was safest to go back that route for now.
I think I'll give it a few days before trying another build and just keep an eye on the builds to see if anything significant changes to resolve this.
For now, 20130701 is the most stable that I'm aware of. Perhaps someone else can chime in if they are running anything newer successfully.

Thanks for the confirmations. And yes, as you indicate, the Unofficials are built on the TF700. I did a complete wipe/reset etc and then tried the 0701 that seems to work fine, but I ran into the same problems. In addition to the three issues noted above, I continue to have no access to either of the external SD cards, which for me is a show-stopper. I'll have to stick with the 0522 Unofficial for a while, at least it's fully functional for me..

I've got nothing better to do than blow up my tab every few days so I'll keep posting up results when I do, lol.
The latest nightly has a force close on System UI. I even wiped EVERYTHING and did a clean install... Same thing. Going back one night, and things should be just fine!
Micro SD card isn't working yet, but this is just a nightly... I'm not worried about it.
HDMI out is working, so that's awesome!
Thanks for testing the unofficial editions. I think it will be better soon!
I m using the app "rotate" to make the table force rotate. It will be useful in the unofficial roms.

It appears there is a new CM on the way... And it appeared it wasn't available for the Note 2... And that made me disappointed, so I set out to put that right.
4.3 is a small update from 4.2. Unfortunately, Google also decided to change almost everything about filesystem mounting. And Samsung exynos devices are a hotchpotch of everything...
Today, xplodwild and I carried out a war of attrition against the nasty Samsung devices. Firstly, there remains a battle-scar in the form of graphics, where we had to disable the ability of the device to screenshot itself. You'll see this in the lack of thumbnails for your long-press-home task switcher. #Blame-Samsung
Storage was a nightmare, but I have finally beaten it into submission. It should now work. Nicely. And properly. At least for now.
Because open source is wonderful, a VERY messy device tree (commits need squashed etc) - https://github.com/pulser/android_device_samsung_n7100/
I suggest a wipe before flashing, but I have tested from 4.2.2 and should be OK actually, maybe some apps will cry, but that's not my problem
Link: http://goo.im/devs/pulser/N7100/CM/cm-10.2-20130810-UNOFFICIAL-n7100.zip
Pretty much everything is working and tested - you shouldn't have any issues getting it to boot. The other version posted appears it may have issues booting, but I was not aware of its existence until just now. Actually, seems there's no link in the other thread, give this a shot, and see if it helps you. There's a lot of issues on Exynos devices when doing any kind of update... Sneeze and it might explode!

Thanks,
Trying now and will report.
BTW (off-topic but... I believe necessary when it comes to AOSP and Exynos) When I click on your githup link the Audio recording fix is on top of the list for 6 months ago, which reminds me; we have never got the chance to see CM 10.1 recording audio properly on videos or sound record apps (not saying it is mono but the sound is terrible actually).. For now it seems the only thing that prevents me (and some others I guess) from using any AOSP ROM as a daily and "fully functional" driver is this problem. Any chance that we can see 10.2 have proper audio recording? Since our voice is recorded just fine on calls we can say the mic is working as it should on both at earspeaker and the loudspeaker. So, there is a software which can use the mics properly and I -with all my heart and never-ending hope- believe this software could be also used for good sounded video recording or help us not to shout too much for Google Now
Thanks for reading. And the ROM

It boots just fine. So is everything so far.
works without a hitch. no bootloop nothing. simply booted up and worked. Huge thanks for that PulserG2 and xplodwild =)
Will try this new one tomorrow... Thanks!
BTW. Is anyone using GoBackup Pro or Titanium Backup? I had an issue on my Nexus 4 running 4.3 .
They didn't restored my Apps. Since the Note 2 uses a SD Card Slot, would it be the same issue?

Awesome. Was pretty sure I had fixed it properly, but always good to check
Downloading and trying it right now I'll be giving a feedback

No issues, my testing process includes restoring from titanium backup, with data, from external SD

This sounds like something more for the guys that did the work on the audio HAL. I've not looked into the solution, but audio on these devices is a dirty hack with tinyhal
there are some occasional rendering glitches with the stock browser while loading a page and scrolling through. nothing majorly bad but still visible at times.
(independent of the webpages i visited)
despite that I didn't come across any other bugs. once again great job :good:
finally glad to see the update in our devices thank you guys

Re 4.3 in general
I have been testing 4.3 on an "old" device , my Nexus S, the last couple of days. Interestingly, the device was much smoother than 4.2 based ROMs, at least on that limited processor device.
Once this all gets ironed out is there reason to believe that 4.3 will be better for our Note 2's?
Thanks for your work !

It really depends on your use cases...
I can make the fastest and most cutting edge android phone lag like crazy without installing anything silly...
I just need to type at my full speed on SwiftKey for about a minute and it will be lagging pretty horrendously. That's a bad app - SwiftKey is very poor lately for performance.
Why do I mention this? Well, your definition of better or smoother will really depend on what you are doing. Android is a horrendously complex operating system. It is ridiculously inefficient in many ways such as how data is presented to the user.
As such there are many badly written apps which will slow down your device. I reckon unless Google considers using native code for drawing the screens, we will never reach the true smoothness the hardware is capable of.
At the end of the day, a particular apple phone is available with lesser processor, graphics and RAM. Yet it offers smoother in-use performance because of its use of native code where possible, rather than a virtual machine based language like java.
I don't think it seems significantly faster than 4.2, but I probably am hard to please. I simply despair as I look at the code in android... All the nasty object orientation and strange ways to to things... Each and every time it happens, the java virtual machine must run instructions.
I reckon if you reduced the number of lines of code used to achieve simple tasks like show the settings menu (which is horrendous with resources in countless files and java classes), performance would be vastly superior.
Probably not much of an answer, but if anyone else is irritated by the horrendously inefficient code in android, I've finally found someone else who sees it!
That actually helps a lot. I think the processor and the device makes a difference too with the Nexus S being a "Google" device and the Note 2 being Samsung.
I just notice that when browsing Tapatalk that seems to be my main gauge - the scrolling seemed pretty smooth even on the Nexus S.
I read in the Nexus thread that the 4.3 code was written to run with less sytem resources but I wasn't sure of the source of that comment.

thanks! i flashed the 10.2 with the older official gapps... nothing seems to be wrong with it and everything is working
do you know what is new with the latest GApps as attached a few posts above?
Flashed it, and it's working good. For the 1st Build it's working quite fine. But the camera (app?) isn't working properly. I took one pic, the camera froze, and when I launched the camera again, it said "No connection to camera".
It's the first build so yeah.. this can happen of course
Hi, I would ask if there is a very vanilla ROM (not CM), similar to stock, but without Google Apps

I'm pretty sure you could flash AOSP itself. It's stock, but theres no Google apps.

Hey @cmason37, thanks for posting this as I'm always searching for those elusive MM 'Stable' Roms I would like to try that rom, however, the above link has been disabled. If you could repost the link that would be excellent.
In the meantime I'll scrub the world wide web for this file, thanks

btw I wouldn't recommend it, I was trying it and it's preatty buggy and outdated. It doesn't have fm radio and it's using only bottom microphone for video recording (stock 6.0 uses both mics so there is stereo effect). It also doesn't support any new custom kernels because it wasn't updated for ages. The worst thing is that it slows down a lot after few days and you need to reboot. On stock 6.0 with squid kernel the performance drop wasn't that big, I was using it for 30 days without reboot and it was still pretty good.

I don't have any of those problems, except for msybe fm radio but I don't give a crap about that. But, I can flash squid kernel & I don't get performance drops often. So it's literally bug free for me. Maybe you should try flashing it again. After all, bad flashes happen.

My apologies you guys for not getting back earlier. I've been fumigating for bugs.
Those issues you were describing are the exact issues I'm dealing with today on my current ROM a popular CM based true to form option-heavy, stability-light ROM. This is a shame as its been fairly reliable platform for me. The occasional issue that was easily remedied with a reboot, a restore or a reflash. The past few months have been bug after bug for me. Mostly a pesky incompatibility issue with my ROM and OpenGapps.
Its seems all I've been doing lately is testing alternative gapp pkg sources, kernels and mods.
What makes this issue the real tops though is that the ROM I use was just listed as "Official" and "Stable" last month. There may be a weekly update waiting in the basket for me but the basket build server is down.
So....?
Not sure where to go from here. I'll tell you this much though. When I decided to try and root this device 8 months ago I had no idea it involved so much. I can almost write my own svripts, I'm understanding the bugreports I generate and read and i haven't spent this much time in a ToyBox since I was 9.
Lol. I'm not complaining though... I love to learn.
Oh and I still haven't tried the ROM you recommended as of yet. PC seems buggy now too.

Seeing as 13.1 is the official Lineage OS android release, I'm wondering if there's anybody who's found a quick fix to fix the camera focus issue. I was at a crazy car meet today and couldn't take any pictures with the front camera. Looked like a complete idiot using my front facing camera to take pictures of cars. Lol Is there no mod, or something we can flash? I shouldn't have to install a WHOLE new ROM, because EVERYTHING else works perfectly. I've tried installing manual control cameras, and even purchased the app Manual Camera, which I needed to get my money back for because it still won't work (It's SLIGHTLY better, but the focus still requires a lot more work than it really should). I know everyone's whined and *****ed about this issue, but on a forum full of very smart people can't there be someone who comes with a fix? I shouldn't have to reflash when I have such an amazing ROM that works as good as this.
You are not alone, my friend. I'm not sure what is causing this issue and why it only happens to a select group of us lucky users. I know it's not my hardware because my camera works fine using the Cuoco ROM, stock ROMs, and some of the Mokee ROMs. I hope eventually someone figures it out. For now, I am using Cuoco, https://forum.xda-developers.com/le-max-2/development/rom-leeco-le2x820max5-9-020s-cuoco92-t3539499.
By the way, I have the X829.

Heyyo, just to double check, what version of opengapps did you install? Anything higher than Full replaces the stock LOS camera app which works good with the Le Max 2 camera. Installing opengapps stock or higher replaces it and has the long auto focus time.
Tbh I used to always like putting stock opengapps but then I noticed issues and so meow I only every do pico and then manually install whichever Google apps I actually use and I find it's more stable this way too.
Heyyo, scratch that! Turns out flashing the latest chinese modem fixed my fingerprint reader and seems to make the camera auto focus better (I could be wrong though) so I'd recommend giving it a shot too! Just flash with TWRP is fine. I saw it on page 18 of the LOS 13.1 thread on these forums so thanks to that individual!
