Hi, I've had my Note II LTE for about 16 months. I found it very unstable on the stock 4.1 android it came with and eventually figured out how to flash it and went with the Slim Bean mod I found here, which has been pretty good. However with the latest build of Slim Bean 4.4.2 build 5, the volume was far too low in calls, so I decided to try the stock 4.4.2 rom [ROM] Official Stock Samsung KitKat 4.4.2 rooted & deknoxed
However although it flashed fine, my wifi now won't turn on on the phone, everything else seems to work, but the loss of wifi is a catastrophe.
Furthermore it seems to have unrooted the phone so I can't use RomManager anymore to flash any other rom.
At the moment I'm stuck, I can't seem to flash any Rom as RomManager won't work, I cant boot into recovery (no option) and the Rooting method I orginally used no longer seems to work with this 4.4.2 official Samsung stock build.
Can anyone help me? Either to fix the wifi, or to get a working rom flashed?
Thank you

well by fixed it, I mean I managed to flash a different working rom to it, not that I managed to get the wifi working with the rom I mentioned above.

Hello guys. I've been searching for hours and it seems no one had the same question as me or maybe I'm searching the wrong key words or something. Okay so to the problem (it is bugging the life out of me) First things first.
I am new to the whole rooting scene. I just rooted my Nexus 4 and it had Android 4.4.2 on it stock. I unlocked it and rooted it successfully. I installed the Paranoid android ROM and Gapps. It worked fine. BUT It wasn't the ROM I was looking for. So I tried to uninstall it and it went downhill from there.
I tried putting a different ROM on my sd from my windows 7 computer and it wouldnt let me. I downloaded it on my phone and found a way to do it it but the gapps were 4.4.2 and PacMan ROM was 4.2.2. I've been searching for the PacMan 4.4.2 ROM for hours and cannot seem to find it anywhere.
Also now with the gapps 4.2.2 and PacMan 4.2.2 on my phone, the wireless isn't working? If anyone can help, please do so! And as fast as possible! Thank you very much! Or point me where I can find PacMan ROM 4.4.2?

Well I'd like to be on PacMan ROM 4.4.2 All up to date
Looks like latest is JB4.3: http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-4/orig-development/jb-4-3-p-c-true-1-rom-t2146879http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-4/orig-development/jb-4-3-p-c-true-1-rom-t2146879
Hello there.
I have been using my n9005 for a while now, have it rooted and I have been messing around with a lot of roms. Recently I installed a version of Cyanogenmod to check it out, the sad part was that the phone didn't work so I had to revert back to TW. I thought I would upgrade to KitKat and my version of CM was KitKat 4.4.2, but now when I try to go back to TW it just won't boot. I've tried a couple of recoveries and I've tried several roms, I've even tried going back to JB but I seriously can't get my phone to boot with TW. Is there any way I can fix this?
I fixed it, apparently my Odin was broken. Sorry for the thread.
I have an s4 from rogers (Canadian model) and initially had cyanogen mod as my rom but I realized that I was missing nearly 5 GB of storage on my phone. I read that to fix this I had to go back to stock using Odin. I went back to stock 4.2.2 using Odin, but then my WiFi stopped working. I couldn't turn WiFi on or search for networks. I then rooted my phone and installed a rom and my WiFi problem was fixed, but now I cant make calls. Every time I try to call someone my screen goes black and the recipient cannot hear me and I cannot hear them. Also, the sound on my phone does not work. I have flashed multiple roms and still get the same problem. Does anyone know any possible solution. I have looked around and many people have had the same problem, but no solution. Any help would be appreciated.
It's because you flashed an old rom (4.2.2) on a newer bootloader. That doesn't work. Flash the latest rom available for you phone.

I have flashed multiple roms and most of them were the latest ones (4.4.4). This still did not fix the problem. Is this what you mean?

I'm sorry, I gave some wrong advice.
It's probably because you are on the old bootloader but you are using a new modem. That's the cause for the problems on our s4. You have a different s4 and there is a different section for your device.
You have to be in this section:

They should be able to help you further there.
Hi all,
I've switched back to Touchwiz for the camera after having cyanogenmod on the phone.
Now it seems like a catastrophe - WIFI won't work with some roms (specifically touchwiz, and now touchwiz wont even boot) while making and receiving calls and texts won't work with lolipop or with cyanogenmod.
I've wiped totally in recovery before installing anything to ensure no issues, but I am at my wits end, about to buy an iPhone tomorrow because I need a reliable phone for business.
Any advice on what I might do? I have the I337M version (rogers)

If all else fails, Odin back to stock.
Give the lollipop Google play edition rom a try, it's been rock solid for me and many others. I will say that for whatever reason, I was never able to get WiFi working in the hyperdrive rom (since rls19) I tried changing modems and what not, but switching to a different rom worked workout issue. Try golden eye rom or one of the others from iB.

Which lolipop rom do you use, might you have a link? L is gorgeous
Will try other ROMS. I've attempted to ODIN back to 4.2.2 but wifi is not working even with clean wipe.
Hello good pleople
So i got a Galxy S4 with lollipop and it was kinda bloated and i installed a custom rom based on 5.0.1 (Cyanogen), but it has some bugs, mainly in the sound (it is distorted in some applications that worked well in my Jelly Bean Galaxy S2) and i am tryin since a couple of days ago to go to stock and i can not. Odin always gives me error and FAIL after a few seconds.
I can still flash a custom rom from my Custom Recovery (i did a 4.3.1 and a 4.4.4 both Cyano), but nothing from Odin goes in my phone, it is ALWAYS "fail" either the -pit- or something else.
How the hell can i go to stock? Is there any way i can do it without the PC and Odin?
If there are more details needed i will supply them.
Thank you.

Yes. You can use an app called Flashfire.
Anyway, Odin can fail for various reasons:
USB cable, USB ports (back ports are recommended), Odin version and Windows version.
So, i'm getting Flashfire (which can be used directly from Android, right? like any app)
(atm i flashed a wooping 1,5 GB custom rom - Death Star 2.0 - and so far so good. After some testing, one of the problematic apps is running ok).
Thank you. I'm gonna report back

You can find official roms here http://www.sammobile.com/ (you have to register and the speed is pretty slow)
The one i have installed, Death Star 2.0 is actually custom but very close to the official 4.2.2.
So far, with Death Star rom and Kernel Ktweaks flashed, the phone is running ok. I have some issues with Mobile Data (4G) as it runs much worse than before, but the overall picture is looking good. I'll report back any other issues i encounter.
