Hello everyone!
I have the amazing Galaxy Note 2 on big red. I have been a flash junkie for quite some time and have tried just about every flavor (rom) I could find. Some with more success than others.
After Google finally released 4.4 into the wild, I wanted to see what it was like. I am not able to build for this device but when time permits I do want to learn. I am a family man and our life is quite busy. Anyways...
I did a clean flash of the latest P.A. & Gapps so I would have a fresh start. Now, on to the quick and easy...
FLASH ALL THE THINGS!
Step 1 ~ Get the Google Experience Launcher:
PreBuiltGmsCore (Google Play Services 4.0)
Velvet (Google Search)
GoogleHome (Google Launcher)
FIX: Google Search Force Close:
Long press the home screen, select Settings. Select Voice. Select Language to change the default. Change to another language, I choose English – UK. Hit Home. Do a Google Search. Repeat the first three steps. Change back to English – US.
Step 2 ~ Grab the new apk's from the Nexus 5 dump:
Calendar (v201308021)
Clock (v3.0.0)
Email (v6.0-893803)
Gallery (v1.1.40304)
Gmail (v4.6.1)
Camera (v2.0.001)
Hangouts (v2.0.012)
Keep (v2.0.50)
Google Keyboard (v2.0.19003.893803a)
Step 3 ~ Pimp it out!
Grab the flash-tastic kitkat sounds and font's from here!
Profit!
Say thanks to any dev that has ever been helpful! They are what makes this whole shindig possible.
A quick note:
I have compiled these links and information from various sources across the interwebs. I do not claim any of the links as my own as this is simply intended as a resource for others.

Same, it's pretty well done! I'm on Bean's TW so maybe that has something to do with the bugs.
I'll give it a shot, I haven't had any problems with Hangouts, might actually use it for SMS....
Didn't have time to flash this clean with my daily driver but it was cool while I used it. The Google search kept force closing even after I did your fix it would work for an hour then fc but again I didn't flash a clean ROM with pa gapps. Is it absolutely necessary to flash Pa gapps?

Not to my knowledge. Others have stated they have had issues while some haven't. I may have been one of the lucky ones. So far it works great. Occasionally, there is a slight delay but it is not often.

I flashed a 4.3 rom and tried the hangouts again. Everything works except the pics. They send and receive fine, it's just half the time they wont load for me to see, just a black box. Same thing on my TW rom. Darn it, I want hangouts for my sms!!
I have hangouts working perfectly with jelly beans build 22. No black boxes for pics, no force closes. Weird how it's touch and go for everyone. I did nothing fancy to get it working either. Followed instructions from another post. It's very important to reboot after installing. That solved my initial issue of hangouts stuck on connecting for video chats.

Thanks for bringing this to our attention I am running this and it is awesome. Everything seems to work except for me I am having issues with GPS and then if i send a new message to someone in hangouts it never gets received. If someone sends me a message then i can use that conversation in hangouts to chat with them.
I want to believe its an issue because of my google + account.
If anyone uses the email app for work/exchange mail, they will need to push the exchange services apk to the system/app/ folder.
Edit: Fixed that name violation with my google+ account and hangouts messaging works perfect now. If only we could fix gps

Multiple force closes
I had many FCs especially Google+ which would bring all else to a stand still. I resorted to flashing my nandroid backup and chalked it up to experience. I t did give me a taste of the new launcher which was interesting.

I have V1.0 (released today) working fine so far (had to change the build prop to Galaxy Note 2). ROM: AOKPA:CM10.1 ParanoidKANGdroid 2.3.0 [April04]. YMMV on other ROM's. Just thought I'd post here since nobody has mentioned it so far.

Thanks Jamie (and sorry for your loss too!). Prayers to you and your fam bam.
alright os i got it running on my phone ,,, here are my thoughts....i might need to watch a video on how to change things around but i dont like how you cant customize it for when you hitting ur picture and only getting messenger , apps and recent activity .... it shoud have a option for phone ... you have to go into apps to use phone ....it doesnt seem very customizable .i also dont like hitting my home button to open apps honestly id rather it go tt the newst post made by a friend.um also when i went to close tasks in task manager and closed open apps it restarts fb home .... thats kinda annoying . just getting use to this but not sure if i even like it ? does anyone else have any thoughts about it ?
---------- Post added at 11:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:17 PM ----------
also i have noticed popping out a chat head or when recieveing a message i am not getting chat head?
Yea no chat heads here either
BaKeD
im sure it will be fixed soon .. someone will figure it out
Well the chat heads works in the regular messenger app! From the store.. maybe that can help make the chat heads work on this one.
Oh and fb home isnt working for me(the moded one) and suddenly it brings me some xperia integration stuff? Waa? Haha
yeah well after installing the apks that were in the link given no chat heads here ...........everything else seems to be working fine but no chat heads .. even when i go into messenger and try to pop out a chat head its a no go ... its not working ...

shayne! so the modded on didnt work and i tried the buil.prop one
insta-soft bricking once casually rebooted.. lolz
darn and i had to bring the note back to life, full wipe included.
.. and guys, actually FB home is just a launcher with lockscreen launcher stuff(as in, like nova, apex) except with NO customization other than turning off the messenger heads or logging in, or out or such fb based options.
And with the most gingerbread app drawer there is..
Basically you will only love this app, if you're an avid facebooker.. so for me only the messenger app will do, its got the chat heads anyway! bit choppy animations but it isnt anything a future update won't fix~
if you won't miss widgets and swapping things etc, if you wont miss ANDROID itself at all, then use fb home
It's worth trying it really but not my cup of tea.. i only use fb for the messaging and a couple likes etc, my entire life doesnt revolve on being on facebook
This is to make your android a facebook phone.

Yesterday, Android 4.4 KitKat was release along with the brand new Nexus 5. Since the HTC Droid DNA will not be getting 4.4 for awhile, here is the brand new Google Experience Launcher!
http://www.androidpit.com/install-the-google-experience-launcher-now
Follow the link above for a descriptive installation process. Unfortunately, I am unable to post any attachments.
I have replace Nova Launcher with the Google Experience Launcher as my daily driver. It is just that amazing. Good job GOOGLE! :highfive:
How is it?
How has it been? Should I uninstall Nova Prime first? Is there a way to get rid of this launcher if I needed to? Any information you can pass along woudl be very helpful. I just do not want to brick or ruin my phone.Thank you!
You Beat me to it!! Icons look a little big for me. But love it.

Yeah no problems here. Download those three apps, push them to SYSTEM/APP, change permissions then reboot. You can have as many launchers installed as you like. I'd suggest leaving Nova. Try the New Google, if you don't like it just go into system/apps and delete the 3apps that you pushed to that folder. No biggie.

Just follow the above instructions and Google now should work properly.
I love this launcher! Yeah... the icons are a little bit too big, but its seamless integration into Google now has sold me.
google now works flawlessly for me, it's the launcher that is messing up...
Does it "stop" when you say "OK Google" and do a voice search?
I fixed the force close issue but voice search doesn't work whatsoever since I downloaded the apks. Anyone else having this problem? Or know how to fix it?

I guess I should have pointed out I'm on CM10.2, 10/29. I've had it all day have not had a problem yet. But with the icons being so big it makes it seem that oys cheaper looking. Idk.how to explain.
Maybe if we could get the 4.4 icons it would be different. I'm sure a cyan theme is just around the corner anyway.
You may have to push this file (http://www.mediafire.com/download/0hb7wj2b18lw7jo/libgoogle_recognizer_jni_l.zip) to system/lib in order to fix the voice search issue.

Tell me what the Nexus 5 is like!
will do man. ha
Here is a full system.img dump from the new Nexus 5 that was released yesterday. Droid Life posted the updated Google Apps here:
http://www.droid-life.com/2013/10/3...-5-dump-search-launcher-and-more/#more-123662
I have Infected Rom on my Rez and updated some of the apps to the latest versions. Google Home (the new launcher) works great. The new Hangouts is now also your SMS app. Gmail, Google Keyboard (with built in emoji plugin), and Google Play Services also work. Google Gallery FC on me, and the new Camera app works, but the new feature (don't know what it is called) FC'ed when I clicked on it. Camera settings is set for 8m pixels, but when viewed in the old Gallery, the pics weren't full size. The pic quality was great, though.
Throughout the day and weekend, REV3NT3CH and I will be testing more new .apk's and will keep you all informed. This system.img dump also includes the build.prop and the boot.img. We are gonna do our best to get either the Nexus 5 system ported over to the Rez, or build straight from AOSP source.
If any other Devs would like in on this, then please PM either REV3NT3CH or myself, and we can go from there.
I am NOT a Dev myself, still learning a few things, but know enough to do what we need to do. Any questions then feel free to ask, and if this thread is in the wrong section then please let me know, or move it to the right section.
Here is the link to the full system dump:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/hty7m61cgy16bcq/Nexus 5 dump.zip
Hope this can help get us started for the Rez.
EDIT: My dropbox links are generating too much traffic. Uploading to Mediafire now. Dropbox links are still working currently, though. Once uploaded to mediafire, I will put the links up. Thanks all!
ANOTHER EDIT: Here is the mediafire link for the system dump and the apps.

130 views for this thread so far and no comments? Is development for the Rez really this dead?
Also, here is a link for just the apps if you don't want to download the dump file. Hope this can help some people.

Xda is generally quieter during 9-5 on the east coast.
If you guys can port this to the Rezound, that would be awesome. I've got a port of 4.3.1 running on my Rezound and it runs pretty well. I'm not aware of any inherent reason KitKat can't run (except to the extent that Wallet requires NFC) on Rezound hardware.
REV3NT3CH says he is now syncing the repo for 4.4. We will know soon. Would you like to be a tester, also?

I tried most of these on tachyon 1.2, just quick apk install no real diagnostics. I found the new Google search seems to close right after opening (no fc just closes).
The launcher seems to work but relies on the search piece which generates errors, it kinda works with both installed, but generally needs a Dev to investigate for our devices.
Email app seems to work, but no exchange services tie to it, compared to my other native email app they appear to point to different setting locations.
Clock wouldn't install
Keyboard, Gmail, hangouts, and keep all seem to be fine. Some of the wallpapers are pretty sweet too

Thanks for the info. I haven't had a chance to test out all the apps. You have to install Google Play Services, Google Search, and Google Home to get the launcher to work properly. Voice search part does FC though, but that is the only issue I have found. I installed Google Now to go with it all, and it is sweet, but Voice Search FC's. I think Email and a few others are gonna have to rely on the new services.jar to get it all working properly. Anyone who knows how to read code better than me hopefully will figure it out. I will post more apps and what is working later on today, hopefully.
Try installing Exchange2Google.apk to get the Exchange to work in the new Email.apk.

I can't get chrome or drive working.
They FC immediately. I also tried to install the dialer and framework but package is invalid.
I installed launcher with Google home, prebuilt, and velvet. I haven't tried search yet but am going to do the library tip above.
Thanks for posting the dump. I can't wait until the devs tailor it to the Rez.
Google search works the the .so tip. But the "OK Google" doesn't.

Hey all I ported Miui v6 to Nexus 7 this weekend and I was wondering if anyone here would be interested in a port for your tablet. I don't personally have the tablet but I can work with someone to get it ported.
You'll have to know enough about the tablet to flash custom ROMs and also provide me with logcats and screenshots.
Let me know and I can get a port going
Sure.

Will update later. Playstore is missing. I'm not sure if intended. I'll try flashing a gaps package i have over top to see what works...
So far i'm really impressed for you not having the devices at all! Great work man, keep it up!

Thanks for the reply!
Miui doesnt include Gapps, however there is the gmscore.apk in the Apps folder that i forgot to remove that gives that Playstore FC at bootup. I will fix that. You will likley have issues with G-apps because of that.
I will remove it and reupload with some other fixes that you mentioned. You can also remove it yourself with an app like root explorer from the Apps folder or you can open the ROM in 7-zip or similar and remove that apk then reflash
Not sure what to do about that slow launcher. Would need a logcat on that one.
Also not sure about small icons in the qucil launch area. I may have to modify the framework a little to getit bigger but Im guessing it wont work becuase of the N10 vs N7 display resolution
Any other FCs? I remember having Keyboard and NFC FCs when I first booted mine
Also, how does the About page look in Settings? Was hoping that I got the build.prop info on the first shot.

Flashing a non-miui Gapps package wrecked the whole system ^^
I'm now loading a gapps package from a hammerhead v6 port and will see.
No keyboard FC so far. I'll look into it when it's back up and running. Since the N10 doesn't have NFC, no problems there either.
I'll do a logcat once i know if i can get the playstore to work or not. Thats my main problem right now.

The Keyboard defaults to Voice-Input with Gapps installed. So you have to skip through setup and make the keyboard standard before entering your accounts.
Working:
- Gapps (Playstore, Mail, Contact sync to miui contact app, youtube... no problems so far)
- Camera (front, back, all modes)
- USB File transfer (Mac)
- Music App (MP3 & Flac, Tags, Lyrics Download, Cover download)
Not Working:
- randomly the keyboard defaults to chinese, although english was selected beforehand
Edit: i'll not try the new build, as the changes won't affect me with the Gapps package installed.
Edit 2: the launcher lags only when moving to the most left page (the widget only page)
Changed my lcd.density to 360 (268 original). Something around 320 would be perfect i think.
So far really nothing to complain about. Everything works. I'll keep using it today and tomorrow in school extensively. If you want me to test anything specific, let me know.
And one more time: I've waited for this a long time, so your work is really much appreciated on my side!

Yes please! That would be awesome. I will make sure to credit you for that and for testing it out.

Not a bug just not an option. Like Miui themes.... The entire theme engine is missing from v6 as well as some other things too that you would normally find in other Miui ROMs
Screens are in a GDrive folder (upload size for png's is limited to 256k)
https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B1QQ1d830GFMUGptOXZGVGR2Q0k&usp=sharing
If you need something specific tell me and i'll add it. Most are with density on 320, and i made some with stock 268dpi.

Im running the KT kernel.
I keep trying to send a group text which gets converted to MMS and I get a message stating that it can't send it right now but will send it when service becomes available. I am on wifi but never had this problem with Alliance Rom. Do I need to change a setting? I'm using stock messaging. Could it be that I am using a different kernel other than stock?

I have heard other users report that issue before with 3rd party kernels in the main thread. I have tried the function on the stock rom (granted quite a while ago) and it did work perfectly. I would try flashing the stock kernel and see if the issue persists.
Didn't see there was this [email protected] forum. Awesome. I'm on v8. When I try to view pictures via stock gallery they won't auto rotate. Wondering if I'm missing something. Thanks

Try going to Settings/Language and Input/Voice Search and make sure that everything is enabled. On a side note, if you updated to the latest leaked lollipop version of Google Now or the launcher, Ok Google functionality is broken.

I just answered this in the main thread, it has to do with an init.d script running, check the main rom op.

Im going to look into this. I think it was from a simple mod that I did. I might post an updated version in a day or two.
Talking about lollipop goodness, how about adding lollipop Gmail ?
I'm using lollipop SMS messenger and tried the gmail but gmail force closes..
And great job BTW, thanks.

All enabled, I installed The Xposed Framework and Xposed Installer from your bundle, could that have messed it up?
Voice recognition works if I open the Google Search app and press the mic, also "Hi Galaxy" isn't working for Hands Free Mode.
Thanks for the help
I chose Google Launcher from the install menu when I setup the ROM, maybe that did it? I uninstalled it and restarted, still nothing.

Well if you are refering to OK Google command, make sure that you have the search widget on your home screen or you can enable the ok google anywhere option in Google now settings. Xposed by itself and any of the included mods should not really effect anything depending (of course) on what mods that you have installed. If You want t troubleshoot than just uninstall the xposed framework from the xposed settings and reboot. You can always just reenable it with the touch of a button. Of course the last case senerio that I would recommend is doing a full wipe (data, system, cache and dalvik) and doing a fresh install. That should definately fix the issue as long as its not hardware related (your phone itself).

I tried enabling from any screen, when it prompts me to say Ok Google 3 times it doesn't recognize it. So yeah, I'll try a fresh re-install.
I'll update!

A silly question; how to get project infinity lockscreen wallpaper back? It's not in wallpaper list...
I noticed you updated on the 24th is that the new release?
I'm on v8 and my phone refuses to screen cast to my Samsung TV.. My girlfriends unrooted T-Mobile S5 does it just fine every time, but mine just says "Connecting.." then drops it every time.. I'm stuck as to why!!
Any other download source than Mega upload?
For some reason my post about the above topic disappeared. Thought this was the Q&A forums but now I'm not so sure.
Was wondering if there was any other way to get this other than downloading an extension that is corrupt and wont tell me where its downloading my files at?
There are NO options to set as for my files to download and I will NOT let it download to C:/ drive just in case it opens a backdoor to allow viruses onto my computer. Call me paranoid all you want too.
Is it being hosted on any other sites that I can control what gets installed and where? Even Pirate Bay allows you to save files wherever you want too. I'm not asking for much. Just dont want my main drive to get whacked by some crap that I have to install just to download files "over 1GB in size you need our extension" . Ummmmm no I don't. Just download the file and allow me to put it where I want to put it. Thats all.
Google Drive or Dropbox account maybe?
Have the v4 and v5 as they were hosted on androidhost or something similar. But then you switched to Mega.nz for some reason. Don't know why. Thanks for anyones help in this problem.
