I want devs to see it and it's about development (or lack there of)... so how is it in the wrong section?

Because it isn't development of any kind... if there isn't something you modded or built, then it doesn't belong in develpoment... a general question of what's with the lack of roms is most definitely not development... read forum rules before posting next time... Q&a is for questions and answers, general is for general discussions about the device and development is for DEVELOPMENT only... if there isn't something flashable, generally it doesn't belong in development... make sense?

Please, post in appropriate section next time. Consider yourself warned.
Devs post and watch in the general and q&a section. I'm a flashaholic so I feel your pain. I hear the 8000 model ROMs work but I can't really get a solid answer plus just because it works it don't mean it couldn't throw skomethkng out ta wack. Patience I'm sure once more people see the power this device has development will come.

I flashed the N8000 JB Rom on my N8013 with no problems whatsoever. all I did was turn on airplane mode then turn on wifi so it would turn off all the radios besides the wifi radio to conserve battery. On my days off im going to search on the Evo View forums because I remember there was a way to completely disable 3G Radios via a flashable zip. If I can get that to work we can essentially share roms but just flash the radio disabling zip afterwards for our N8013

The 8013 should only have wifi and bluetooth radios right? What does airplane mode prevent?
I would figure the rom which is N8000 would be constantly looking for a radio that wouldnt be there would be sometype of a battery drain

Are there any other bugs to the JB ROM or does everything else work well?
I'm really hoping someone will build a pure vanilla ROM as I HATE Touchwiz.

Dude stop worrying already. Entropy has an 8013 note and he is an awesome dev. He already released a kernel and 3 builds of CM10. Check the CM10 thread in general, second post there is a 9/15 update for CM10.

Well I think the fact we dont have official JB yet is what is holding most devs back. Why spend the time developing for ICS when it will be obsolete any day now?
Once JB OTA is out I think we will see a major pop in development.

Hi All,
I am a Newb, but have basic knowledge. So I rooted my phone but left the standard OS on the phone. It's Rogers Galaxy S2 LTE (Skyrocket) version. So now there's a new OS update. So on the phone I downloaded the update and the phone reboots to CWMR once rebooted. I don't know what to select in that menu? Anyhow have any ideas. The update does not install.
thanks
You need to be stock to receive updates. You need stock recovery
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using Tapatalk 2
What version of ICS are you running? To take the update you need the stock recovery of the version of ICS you are running. Or you can flash the new jb official rogers rom that is listed in the dev thread via cwmr. Check out mohans thread

You can't update with a modified recovery. I'd highly recommend checking out a ROM from one of our devs instead instead of just going through stock updates, you already have the recovery and root in.
And don't worry about the guy above

I'd say this is the safest thing. A rom made by the manufacturer who, logically, should know better about their own device than a community of voulenteer developers. It's rooted, official and has everything you need and more.
It's the same rom you got via OTA/Kies but repacked for CWM. :victory:

Does anyone know where I can download the new Samsung Rom for Rogers? I would like to install it. I currently have 4.0.4 installed.
Unless someone recommends to install the CM10 instead...I just don't want to have to keep installing new ROMS. I want something stable.

No!! The bootloader is still locked.
CyanogenMod is open and if a known dev makes a request for a branch to be made official it only needs an approval from other "official" CyanogenMod devs/board members. A review by the requested members, is all that is needed to make it an official branch.
So I don't see any nightlys up, I'm a little confused, is it so freshly supported that it hasn't been built yet?

Nothing official from CyanogenMod, I'm afraid. We'd have to live with the unofficial builds only. And also, I guess, there would be no fix for 1080p recording or HDMI issues.

like this rom
i like this rom only had a few problems but after a reboot seams to be working good again
I have the weirdest thing happening. I'm on stable 7 and have been for quite a while. It's worked perfectly until a couple days ago and now I can't send text messages out. I think I can receive OK. Just can't send out. I've even tried doing a clean install of this and other ROMs with same result. It gets more odd... After toying with it I can send only one text out. Just one to any person. But I can't send another unless I reboot or I think wait a few hours. Upon reboot I again can send only one text message out. And so on. I have no clue what could be happening. Any ideas?

Portable Wi-Fi Hotspot
Hi, I just loaded up Slimkat 4.4.4 with the stock kernel on my Verizon Galaxy S3. I used to use the Wifi Tether TrevE Mod with my previous version and that worked, however, this does not appear to work in this rom. I noticed there was a built in Portable Wi-Fi hotspot, which does work perfectly. I would like to use this but am just concerned that somehow VZ would know I am tethering and I would incur additional charges. Do I have anything to worry about or am I just being paranoid?
Thank you for a GREAT product, it's a spectacular rom.

Hello Experts,
This is sktneer from India. I am Forum Guru in reputed ExcelForum (excelforumdotcom).
But I do not know anything about the back end applications used in phones except the basic functionality of my phone, currently using Motorola Atrix 2 MB865 (Asia version).
I would request you experts to guide and assist me to resolve the issues I am having with my phone.
My phone is very slow and I have tried almost all the methods I found over internet to get rid of this but all my efforts have gone in vain.
Recently over internet I found that some users having the same problem claimed that their issue was resolved by updating their Atrix 2 to Jelly Bean with unofficial leak 3.
To be very frank, this was completely new thing to me and I was not even aware of the terminology used in this scenario.
My Questions:
1) Is rooting is required for this kind of updaing? If yes, please guide me that how can I root my device?
2) What are the correct steps for updating my device with such leaks? Because when I googled this I just found few links for downloading but as I told you that I am completely novice and not familiar with the terminology used, so couldn't get the correct steps to be followed.
3) My last question is, is it possible to install ICS back if I face issues with JB on my device?
I know that I have asked too much and certainly you experts don't expect a complete novice in the forum but I hope that you will bear with me.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

It is absolutely safe to install jb leak on Indian atrix 2 (I am using the same on my phone)
Rooting is not required for this process.
Use this link for complete procedure
and this is the link for downloading jb leak 3
Use the jb leak 3 instead of stock rom (leak) that is given in that procedure

Thanks Sameer!
I really appreciate your help.
I visited the link you provided and one thing is not clear to me. Would you please guide me that how to follow that......
In the link OP stated something like this....
"Once the whole process is over, you'll get a little sign saying that it passed. This means that your ROM has been flashed. Note- do NOT remove your phone/ let your phone or computer switch off. You do not want to go there. Make sure everything has enough charge.
Now... This step is very important... Reeboot your phone and..... You're done! That's it! Your phone now runs official(kinda) Jelly Bean(4.1)!"
Does this mean that when the process of updating is finished, the phone will be switched off automatically and I will have to reboot the phone when it is still connected to the pc as I normally switch on my phone by pressing the power button?
I am sorry if I have asked something silly but I need your guidance.
Hi Sameer,
One more query. Do I need to remove my memory card and SIM before updating also?
Thanks.
Reporting back the progress:
So finally I have updated my device successfully and noticed some changes and I will need your approval whether these changes are normal or if not, how to correct them.
1) The model number of the phone is showing ME865 now instead of MB865 (my old mode before update). Is this correct?
2) The new android version is 4.1.2. Is this the correct version which belongs to leak3?
3) When I called first after updating, the call was not connected and I got a Chinese voice message.
4) I can still see Chinese language here and there, though I changed it to English.
Please let me know if I have done it correctly or do I need to follow some more steps to completely make it to function properly?
Somebody please reply.
All is correct, no Worries,

Thanks Sameer. You helped me a lot. I really appreciate that.
I have few more questions for you, please reply if you can....
1) The latest version of Jelly Bean is 4.3. So is it possible to update to the latest version?
2) Can I re-install the JB update using the same method again, if any issue with the device?
3) If I factory reset the device, will the android version be changed to ICS again?
Sorry for bothering you.
Thanks again for all your support.
1.Yes it is!
2. Yes you can!
3. No. Your phone will only stay at the rom you flashed.

Thank you so much for your reply.
If you have any link with clear instructions for how to update to 4.3, please share that link with me.
Thanks again.
In fact i have never flashed 4.3 before. But i had 4.2 & kk roms flashed succesfully, and i'm using KK(cm11) right now. You can search the Atrix2 Android Development section for some threads of instructions on how to flash a 4.3 rom.

Hi Ricokowalski,
Nothing is better if there is any possibility of using KK.
Do you have any link with clear instructions to a beginner for how to do that, keeping in mind that I have already used JB leak 3 using RSD Lite? I will appreciate any help in this regards.
Moreover why I see this line in your message "Sent from my MB865 using XDA Free mobile app" because after updating my device shows ME865 instead of MB865 but yours is still showing MB865?
Thanks once again for your reply.
Firstly you need to get your phone rooted. Then you have to install a cunstom recovery. Most roms support the BMM(Boot Menu Manager) custom recovery. You can also install multiple Roms by BMM.
If the BMM runs normally on yoir phone, i think it is possible to flash roms.
You can access the BMM instructions here↓
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=49231803
I think that should be enough for a beginner to use BMM fluently.
And about the device name, i think it is because the build.prop file changed because of the JB leak you flashed. So your device name is changed too.
However i have noticed that some Roms had stated that people should flash them on stock ICS rom and i wonder if it is also safe to flash on JB leak. Afterall, it is dangerous to flash a custom rom.

That some roms are, non kexec 4.2.2 roms only !! (These non kexec rom needs stock ICS rom as ur primary rom)
All kitkat roms are kexec roms which can be flashed with BMM whether you have jb leak installed or stock ICS installed as ur primary ROM (system 1)
And its not dangerous to flash a custom rom

Nice to see your reply Sameer.
I updated to the JB leak3 with the help of the link you provided and I really appreciate your help since a beginner like me could update using RSD Lite and the leak file without knowing abcd of the whole story.
I would really appreciate if you can provide any further assistance in order to update to kitkat using RSD Lite since I am aware of the process of update using this method.
So can I do the same to update to kitkat using the same method?
If so, can you please assist me in doing so.
As you know my device is now on JB leak 3, will I be able to continue from here to kitkat?
Any further help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

No Sameer. Probably you mistaken me. I know that there might be threads addressing the same issue, but being a novice I cannot decide myself that which one to follow and that's why I requested you to help me to decide about the right method since I trust you. As I am not still clear that is installing BMM necessary for updating to kitkat or can't it be done using RSD Lite as I previously did with JB leak 3?
And don't worry, you are not being rude at all as I can understand this because I am also a forum guru and I know the feeling when OP asks more and then either I don't have time to reply or I am not willing to reply. So never mind. I will try and see if I can find something useful myself.
Thanks for all your support so far. :good:
Take Care.
Get it！ Thanks for your correction
