And to Griffin i understand that that's why I'm interested in the phone and want to give it my best. I'm tired of driving a Honda. i work for t mobile and everyday see the same average thing. This phone is as powerful a the average laptop i just read and read that people are saying there getting 20 hours of use medium and it makes me think something is wrong i am a heavy user but I'm not switching multi tasking like crazy im usually reading the forum, game reviews or tech news. Occasionally playin snes fighting games which doesn't all in all drain battery like i thought it would.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] griffindodd:
Understood, using the screen at all will be by far the biggest power drain without a doubt. And for the record I'm not getting anything near 20 hours of 'medium' use on my phone either, probably 12-15 of light use in an LTE area with the OC'd kernel and various task killers and a little undervolting.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] h3r3tic:
Ten mins ago i read that post and i couldn't manage that if i tried that's what makes me believe i have an app or issue eating away. Any app i have is set to never fetch or re fresh. I only have email Facebook draw something and words with friends. Although i haven't played them today. Plus juice defender cutting off wifi n data when i standby. I feel like im crippling my phone and it still drinks juice.

What's your clock speed any tweaks under volting. you using transfuzion. Any sms app. I use handcent and k9 mail.

When you go to settings/applications/running apps What do you see?

Have you tried betterbatterystats? Checking for a partial wakelock or a rogue app causing the drain?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Underground_XI:
go to settings applications and see what apps keep running. I got rid of maps for example, it kept running even when I wasnt using it. I installed waze instead. when I am not using the phone only 200 ram is being used. I also got rid of the samsung keyboard. the ics keyboard is better and takes less ram. screen brightness to auto. u have stock or custom kernel? does your phone go into deep sleep?

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] h3r3tic:
Are you talking cached processes? The apps running i close them they open back up. From what i understood cached don't actually use power their just there if i go back to them to open faster i thought anyway cause Android manages itself. I use swype battery monitor is a widget juice defender the others close and open back up but i have how much ram free at the bottom

someone here is gathering many thx from me for his posts :cool:

I just want to add something I have been saying for almost 2 years now ,

There is very little impact on what a rom chef can cook into a rom to reduce battery Drain .

This is a huge (understandable) misconception . About roms .

The amoDrain screen we have is simply not battery friendly, there is no way around it .

Hey black and grey theme will make your battery last longer I use to do that when I got my first amoled display my themes were all monochrome brightness cranked down and leave the screen off as often as possible . Whats the use of having a gorgeous amoled screen then ?

90% of the rest of the battery usage is Kernel / governor related . the kernel / modem combo plays a role to , but all in all , if you take out misbehaving apps talk time amodrain , not much left for the rom cook to fix , yea maybe 5% ..

Nowadays I like my phone shiny colorfull and fast , If I d need more battery ? I d buy an extra one :cool:

Words with friends is a HUGE battery drainer. If you want to use it in suggest setting notifications to never.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] bbgt2:
Whoever says they get 20 hours out their Note battery is :

1. Not using their Note and just have it turned on.

2. Is drinking their lunch and smoking their dinner.

My experience for battery apps and task killers is they are pointless, esp task killers they keep killing tasks that the phone keeps bringing back.

Please help.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] psperos:
finally got the rom installed as well as the Transfuzion theme . Wow what a difference, i am running go launcher with some decently loaded desktops and experiences no lag compared to the stock rom. Very nice , this exactly what i was looking for!

No major issues with anything. the only bug i have noticed is when i hold down the power button to get the options to turn off etc.. those buttons don't work. They are not clickable and the phone hangs up on the screen before going back to the home screen. Not a big deal, ill just hold the power button down to reboot.

I did the same thing as you: flashed the rc4 rebooted and then flashed the ATT fix. The apn was completely blank and I first added the wap.Cingular info from one of the earlier posts - the speed was terrible. I then changed it to the pta apn info - also from earlier post and lte speeds are back. Hope this helps.

I am not 100% about this but I'm pretty sure the CPU Is just sleeping waiting to be activated by apps that actually use dualcore 1 GHz Single Core is more then enough to run most things but hey this the joy of Android you choose how you run your phone

Tested..works fine

Open Gmail

Have anybody tried using a headphones on this rom yet? I tried my Bose headphones and the Mic doesn't work. Tried it on another phone and works fine. Went back to stock rooted and doesn't work either. I'm gonna go go to an att store and try it to see if is the phone. Can somebody try using any headphones to test the Mic on it?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] bclark:
Mic on Apple headphones haven't worked, I use them in the car for hands free. It is usually the kernel that supports this iirc.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] SkipKelley:
Same here

I just got home and was going to post the same question. I too have the Bose headphones and the mic doesn't work. Starting and stopping music works fine, but no mic pickup.

Update: I tried 3 other headphones, Apple and Bose didn't work and two set of Samsung ones did. So 50% work and 50% don't. The cheap ones do and the expensive ones don't. Go figure.

No you have to thank Apple for using proprietary headphone circuitry that doesn't play well with non apple stuff. that's what happens when you control a share of the market you can write your own rules.

Confirmed. F... Samsung decided to stop support on high end headphones. Seems like we can only use less than a handful of cheap headphones or Samsung headphones. Went to Bestbuy, tried my Bose headphones and got the same issue. No Mic. Tried my iphone headphones, same thing too. I tried again on my Samsung Galaxy S2, and they work just fine. I have used Bose headphones for years and they offer the best fit, sound quality at a reasonable price. If you own a phone like this, I'm pretty sure most people would prefer some headphones better than cheap Samsung ones.

I wonder if is a matter of a software tweak to make them work again. Any ideas would be truly appreciated, and sorry if this is a little out of topic. Thanks in advance.

I'm pretty sure lot of people don't feel confident on using an almost tablet size phone against their face, which I overcomed by just using my Bluetooth for phone calls, but sucks a lot that I can not listen music and make phone calls with a good headphones anymore.

1. I rebooted and reflashed multiple times.

2. The fix for the pop up messages, the automatic conversion of sms to mms, and the typing bug can all be solved by changing the settings. But NOT in the messaging app. I really don't believe it was that obvious that a pop up sms app would convert all sms messages to sms within the stock messaging app.

3. This forum is for mods as well as users to post about their experience. Feedback is valuable in nearly all cases...if its relevant to the Rom. Unless the developer specifically states that he doesn't want feedback front a certain "class" of users...or that he doesn't want feedback or suggestions about a specific set of features, there is absolutely no reason for people to assume the contrary.

The last post...about the battery was a feature suggestion. Providing a stock framework zip would encourage further theming.

I don't know if you had a bad day or what. But YOU are the one wasting space here. Not us.

Install Problem

Ok after rooting and installing cwm I downloaded the FULL rom zip and the ATT fix and did a full wipe then flashed the rom and then the ATT fix and it is stuck on the samsung screen. I restored twice through cwm tried re downloading the rom and a re-flash and still the same thing? What am I missing?:confused:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] derrick_:
I personally wiped then wiped cache and then wiped dalvik before flashing. Maybe that will help.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ChicoKiri:
You're using CWM4, right?

An odd quirk that came up in the Atrix ICS threads (entirely different device, I know), is sometimes you had to flash the rom twice in a row before it stuck. Give that a shot?

Factory Wipe

Dalvik Cache Wipe

Install SAUROM

(Install SAUROM again?)

ATT Fix

And then last a theme, if you so choose.

For people with microphone issues with higher-end headsets, you can purchase a small adapter (short cable) that will correct this issue...

http://www.macadux.com/mobile/android/samsung-galaxy-s/non-samsung-headphones-with-mic-problem/

I had to do this to be able to use my nicer Shure headset.

Before, only headphone worked, but nobody could hear me.

Now, it is all good.

This is a known issue unfortunately, with manufacturers catering to Apple more than the rest of the manufacturers...

This would also resolve the issue with some people that have low volume sound out of their headphones...

Cheers,

Arno

EDIT: I did not purchase this particular cable, but had one I purchased a while back for the first iphone. Was still in the box... :-)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] brittoking:
I came from an Atrix and that's completely true, there were a couple diff roms that required flashing twice to stick for some reason, and I also agree with the post above DEFINITELY CLEAR YOUR CACHES!

My Note is At&t. I flashed back to TPC Note ROM (At&T-based) in an attempt to address my GPS issue (slow lock or intermittent no lock) and noticed the following:

1) The GPS always locks within 5-15 seconds

2) Go Launcher lags a lot less

3) Of course, SUPL in APN is back

4) Data *seems* more consistent

In general, when I clear cache from CWM, the next boot takes longer. This is because the cache is being rebuilt on boot.

With Saurom, I always notice that the phone boots just as quickly as if I did not clear the cache. With TCP ROM, I observed that the phone takes longer to start after clear cache.

Could this be the lag that we see with Go and other launcher? Is the cache being built or built properly with Saurom?

I like Saurom better for all its features and more frequent update. I only wish I can shake some of the issues with my phone...

Dagr8.....This is great. I am poet and didn't know it. Finally flashed today (been testing someting) along with ....yes....Obsession theme. But you probably already knew that one.

Absolutly NO issues to report. Thank you for this. All is well.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] DAGr8:
Well I coudl tell you simple answer like this

1)

I have absolutely no issue with gps , I have been trackign fo rthe last 2 days .

2) G

No lag at all for me in Go launcher

3)

No idea what supl is needed for in apn

4)

well yea *seems* still many us users get 3 times my downlaod speed on ATT and Im on rogers using Rogers so go figure ..
​

_AFAIK many ppl have complained about lag with launcher on stock odex rom .

_AFAIK clearing cache never 'significantly' affected boot time , clearing dalvik on the other hand will make your phone take much longer to boot .

BUT

It is VERY possible that ROM A suits better your phone then ROM B , not all phone are alike .

I can tell you one thing for sure tho , TPC rom is an image , not a CWM ..

with what has been happening on the skyrocket (some users would get constant FC on fresh rom flash ) I have seen other weird things , it woudlnt surprise me that the note needs to be flashed back to stock and repartition in order to accept 100% clean flash ... Of course like I said some device are fine with it others arent . IF you would like to get Saurom Flying you could try to flash back a stock ATT rom (odexed) using ODIN , factory reset the phone twice (once form inside android once from recovery ) reboot once then reboot in recovery and flash Saurom + att fix then see again , I also read some weirdness about flashing the rom twice . you could try that too , I mean if you d really like to have Saurom flying (like it should) I say its worth the try . :D

To those having bt issues . I am not sure what to say .. did this happen on stock ?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] DAGr8:

Im gonna have much more time in the next few days to polish the rom and theme any requests ?
