Try to disable super user in Settings/More/Application manager. Then flash super user in Recovery

Then wipe cache / dalvik reboot. Then see if you can update thru playstore.

Community ROM development

OK, I'm needing a current bug list for 1,1. So to those of you who are running this rom or who have used it in the past and have knowledge of any issues ( or whatever needs adding/fixing ), please either PM me or post it here in this thread so I can put it on the to-do list. I figured it wouldn't be much trouble since it's almost 100%. I've decided to keep the ball rolling with this rom while JLMancuso is away. (Just the rom, not dual-boot kernel etc.) I've read back into this thread but I don't see any mention of current issues with 1.1 other than S-Pen clipping. For now I will go ahead and integrate all the fixes in the OP for the known issues. The losing root issues are not related to this specific rom so get help with that in the general forum because more people will see it there. Thanks for any help any of you can give with bug reports.

I had issues with MMS. But found an N2 messaging app flashable fix and I'm good.

Lol don't be so sensitive, I'm just saying, I don't feel its right that people try to take his work and release it as theirs, but I guess it is a "community ROM"

I'm very close to completing a new & improved Hybrid TV ROM. I've used files from the Note 3 and S5 so basically it is is Sprint version of the Verizon DN3 ROM, only I'm not porting Verizon framework, I'm using Sprint variant files and NE2 base. As JLMancuso is mainly focused on AOSP right now, development for Community ROM will likely not be at the top of his list. Look for a new ROM thread once I feel it's virtually 100% bug free.... very close to being done. It will be an "as is" ROM meaning I will not add or theme it. That can be done by others and they can post themes in the apps & themes forums. You're all in for a treat. Im on it... just be patient.

    Okay everyone looks like my time tables for everything has changed. Yall know I have many projects I am working on but like normal like takes turns all the time and now is one of those turns in my life. While this is a wonderful turn it will also limit my time on projects. So I am cutting things down a bunch I will get a good build of beanstalk 4.4.4 going then finish up the Community Rom (N3 features (air command) along with S5 features (Ultra powersaver, Toolbox, and hopefully Download booster)). DN3 will most likely get dropped but I should be able to do the last update to S5-FEAT (fixing spen clip, toolbox, and other minor things) and then try to get tw 4.4.2 MIUI out (ported from the N3 so it has working air command!!). Then get my last special project (well sort of mine) finished and out. All the other AOSP roms I put out will most likely get left behind also.


    So far those wanting to know what has changed... Well two big things have happened. I am getting married (which some of yall already know) but also just found out that I am also getting a new member to the family!! Looks like nature has done her thing and blessed us with a new baby (some 9 months from now)!!

    Okay lets get this out of the way now. You need to post what release you are on when you report issues. There are many different releases and I cant/wont help you if you dont give me the information I need to help you.

    FYI: I will not add native hotspot hack. There is a published mod on how to do it yourself. The reason why is below.

    Sprint says if you want to tether then you must pay an additional fee for it. It is in your sprint contract if you want to look it up. Almost all mobile providers do this.

    Read this which is what you agreeded to by getting service from Sprint.

    https://manage.sprintpcs.com/output/en_US/manage/MyPhoneandPlan/ChangePlans/popLegalTermsPrivacy.htm

    Now they may not file charges and just terminate your service. It is in there power and right to file legal charges if they want to.

    For users with power off charging issue!

    You will need to upgrade your bootloader to NE2 for the power off charging to work. This will also give you a tripped Knox counter in download mode and void your warranty but if you flashed this or any other rom that you have already voided you warranty.

    Another simple OP for now.

    What is Community Rom. Well it is my own personal project that will take any and all help from our L900 users. I have started with the stock NE2 rom and will slowly evolve it into a S5/N3 rom. It will have all kinds of fixes, mods, tweaks, and themes from anyone who want to help.

    Where the rom is right now.
    Well the first Alpha release is basic. Pure stock NE2 except for the S5 systemUI.apk and root. I even forgot to remove KNOX in the first alpha. The stock samsung kb is giving constant FC's. Just push through the setup and then change to swipe kb (preinstalled) or whichever keyboard you like (the LG Keyboards do not work).

    Please use Philz 6.07.9 recovery...
    http://goo.im/devs/philz_touch/CWM_Advanced_Edition/l900


    Flashing Instructions
    1. Download rom and verify MD5sum
    2. Place rom on phone (if not already)
    3. Backup anything you need/want that is in your internal sdcard
    3. Backup current rom
    4. Factory reset/Format for new rom
    5. Under mounts choose format /data /data/media (this is your internal sdcard)
    6. Reboot into recovery
    7. Flash rom and reboot

    The first boot will take a long time so please wait. Also the phone will be a little sluggish for awhile (it has to setup itself).




    If you have not taken the 4.3 or 4.4.2 OTA/ODIN and not flashed the wifi fix you will need to do so to be able to use wifi. This file must be flashed via Pc and Odin only. It will not work with mobile Odin.
    http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23501681358548565 -- this version is not compressed just flash it as is



    Thanks to:

    xda -- with out this forum I would not be able to do any of this
    xda university -- giving me a huge knowledge base to draw off of
    garwynn -- posted the tar which is the base for all my work
    Chaz187 -- helping with more than I can list and being a great member of this community
    lorjay589 -- always willing to help with anything I have a question about and giving so much to this community
    samsung -- for making such a crappy version of 4.4.2 without that there would be no need for any custom versions lol! (sorry had to poke some fun)

    My great group of testers -- they help get the really big issues found -- this way yall only have minor annoyances instead of major problems @Currykun @eg62011
    @jrebo
    @Leoisright
    @rezistrat @ColeTrain!
    @mrwright83 @ianmb @DJ IZZY
    @jay2149

    If I forgot someone please dont be offended my mind is all over the place and I forget lots of things. Just hit me up and I will make sure you get your credits.

Second I am working on something super special that will deley all progress on any of my projects. It is an update to devil kernel!! Got permission to update it to work with tw 4.4.2. Not sure yet if I will be able to keep tw 4.3 support but aosp 4.3-4.4.4 will still be there.

    So hopefully we will have a custom kernel!!!
