    Help Downgrade from 4.4.2

    I hope I am not beating a dead horse here, but has anyone found a way to get back to JB from 4.4.2 on the Verizon Note 2? All of my family except me has Note 2 phones and they are ALL having problems. The kicker is no one is eligible for an upgrade so they're kind of dead in the water. Any info...

    Root [Verizon] White Theme?

    I am looking for a way to theme the stock ROM white (notification bar, menu screens etc.). I don't mine installing a custom ROM but I want it to be a touchwiz ROM. If there is a way to flash just a theme, that would be highly preferable. Thanks :)
