I have noticed that manipulating the DPI affects positioning for one-handed operation.

Is anyone aware of an operating DPI that is an improvement over the default 320 while preserving the positioning of the phone, calculator, and pattern pads in one-handed mode?

So as soon as I took it of the charger this morning, systemui fc galore , no matter what I did wouldn't stop it and I went to restore alpha2 and reflash with fc fix and it gave me a md5 mismatch on my backup, does anyone know why the md5 mismatch? I used it yesterday and all I did was rename the folder in cwm folder in my sd to keep it organized.

RoloRacer on Seraphim ICS Note
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] dumbquestion:
I tried in the past to rename the backup folders as well and got the mismatch problem, I think it was Rocket42 who first pointed out for me that this may cause an md5 issue. In the future, you may do what I did and index them on a simple notepad sheet to avoid that problem. I was never able, even after restoring the original name of the folder, to get the backup file to work again after I got an md5 mismatch error with it. sorry.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] SkipKelley:
Make sure the file name does not have a space in it. CWM has a problem with a space in the file name. I had the same issue and made sure I don't put a space in the file name and haven't had a problem since.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] roloracer:
Thanks for both replies guys , I saw the space issue comment somewhere and I removed one I had in the name but haven't had time to test, will try and report later.

Odd.. I have done it several times, and had no problems.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] CreekDirt:
I had mentioned earlier that I didn't have any phone issues on 3.1,but I did so I rolled back to alpha 2. My incoming calls would fc the phone process. That really sucks too because I was liking the update.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] roloracer:
I took the space out and the backup worked, now the rom is still fc'ing systemui very often, when I get a call it wont even display who's calling, I guess I'll be reverting back for now to either seraphim or back to alpha2 that was solid for me.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ghostfaceg35:
I've tried Seraphim a couple of times and alpha 3 but keep coming right back to alpha 2. For whatever reason Seraphim gives me constant FCs. I can't use a ROM that i can't restore any of my apps to, not apps+data, just the apps. Alpha 2 has been rock solid for me.

I can say that this is the best ics rom available right now. The noteworthy rom have too many bugs as you can tell on on other members experience, we've waite patiently for 2 days for him to post the link and what do we get a half baked rom.

Saves yourself a headache this is the best ics rom so far . I salute the developer of this rom!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] the2rrell:
best rom FOR YOU,

Noteworthy is a WIP leave it at that, but have tried Dags and Serephim. BOTH are solid. less the issues already known. i can make both of them my daily drivers. so its not the ONLY Ics rom that is working.

ok back to the Rom, waiting for a Rev Alpha III.

Portable Wifi Hotspot issues

Anyone found an answer??? I also can not use the portable wifi hotspot option. Once selected the phone tries to verify with AT&T that I have the monthly service option. I do not. However on various other ROMs (ANR for the Inspire ICS 4.0) this was not a problem. I have always been able to use this option. Any ideas?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] katdog75:

With 3.1 I couldn't receive calls. With 3.2 I couldn't make calls. I can't win for losing lol. Much thanks for your work though. It has changed my Note.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Aenima462:
I had some crazy problems yesterday while texting and then later when trying to make a call. When I'd receive messages, sometimes the phone would completely lock up and I would have to hold the power for 5 seconds to make it reboot. This was one of those moments I could not have this happening lol. I then made a call and it exited the phone app and did nothing.. I tried again and nothing. A minute or two later it started making the call!

Finally I got the call connected and started texting again which cause it to freeze. I held the power button to reboot again and this time it started up in safe mode.. Did not even know android had a safe mode.

Saurom is a pretty awesome alternative. Alpha 2 is my favorite of the ICS varients but the phone app bugged me so much with it's lag, I went back to saurom. Everything else was fantastic. Unfortunately I could not get alpha 3 to play nice.

I've been having Google calendar sync problems across all ics roms since yesterday. Anyone else having problems? there will be a fc for calendar and calendar storage. I'm on alpha 2 right now.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Mohammad_Adib:
Call me a troll, but no it's not unless the launcher doesnt lag the moment you put a widget on it. I know thats the truth and thats not what devs want to hear, but face it! Other than TwLauncher, i have not seen a single ICS tailored launcher that was even remotely smooth with tons of widgets on each screen. So if that is still prevalent, I would not even touch AOSP
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] truth77:
Bro idk what you did to your phone but I have no lags on nothing. Just smooth sailing once you wipe and read direction properly!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] shrubbry:
I absolutely love apex launcher. Ran it on alpha 2 with whatever widgets I wanted. Fastest launcher I've used.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Mohammad_Adib:
I am a programmer and an android dev, let me tell you what i mean in technical terms. The widget on the home screen wants to update from time to time, and if it updates while you scroll, the launcher will lag. Touchwiz forces the widgets to not update while you scroll so that its a smooth experience. Launchers like LauncherPro, GoLauncher, Apex Launcher, Nova Launcher are not like that. They let widgets update even as you scroll, hence if you have a 10 x 10 grid and have around 5 widgets on every screen, it will be a laggy experience. Go ahead try it. Populate ur homescreens with a variety of widgets such as CNN or Engadget and then come back and tell me how smooth your launcher is.

---------- Post added at 01:37 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:52 AM ----------

For everyone who is on an ICS ROM, in my opinion the Stock gingerbread AT&T ROM is the best. Very smooth. beyond smooth. The lag is nonexistent compared to ICS and the random freezes. The rotation animation is also so smooth i no longer miss ICS. Plus, i can now overclock. Just to throw this out there
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Skizzy034:
Ugh. Every twenty mins *calendar* & *calendar storage* fc. I'm gonna scream
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jstevenson72:
Who would have a 10x10 grid on a phone full of widgets...sounds like your just being unreasonable in your expectations.

I too am a programmer, for the past 20 years (longer than you've been alive), I make .Net applications for a living.

If my users complained of lag because they couldn't run 20 windows gadgets simultaneously and have a smooth experience with my software, I'd say stop running the gadgets.

Stop posting here unless you have something constructive to say.

I had the same issue & when I couldn't get it to settle down by reflashing, I went back to my stable CWM backup of Alpha 2. I then tried to take pictures at a wedding this past Saturday & suffered lockups and freezes. I had to go back to Saurom, which I am not sad about as I LOVE that ROM- I love all of the development on these ROMs and will lurk and try whatever DAGr8 puts out- great work & effort man.

Thanks for the update, but ever since Aplha 2, Web crashes everytime I'm on it. Upgraded to Alpha 3, now everything crashes. I think I'll stick with GB for now.

EDIT: Tried it, realized I won't be going back but couldn't deal with the instability of Alpha 2 or 3, so I reverted to the stock leak of Alpha 1.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jstevenson72:
Mohammed,

Real world experience teaches most developers that you have to concentrate your development efforts on the 80%, not the 20% user scenarios.

If these guys focused on fixing your edge case widget problems they may be able to fix it but at what cost? All the other users' more common functionality.

Your passion is obvious, you may become a very good developer someday, but don't forget to work on your social skills.

Until you have a killer resume with a decade of experience, your social skills are a big part of what gets you hired. Your dev skills only keep you the job.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] supac:
are you guys done each other? Ready to be constructive and contribute?

Mr Devs

Let's put your 20 years experience (jstevenson) and your efficiency/uberness(Muhammad) to the test for the better good.

Help everyone here to solve this problem rather than knocking each others boots who is a better dev.

Here are the challenges Mr experience and Mr smooth pick one of each or tag team on a solution.

1) When exporting to pdf sMemo would crash.

2) adding sMemo widget to Apexhomescreen. because twiz can suck my poocch.

Boom! !! Rally up
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] immor2al:
Making it work

I see alot of complaing about ICS. If your not going to put in some work, read, learn, apply, fail, try again...You should wait for an official update OR get an iPhone and go to wal-mart and get a rainbow poka-dotted case for it..

Garbage in = Garbage out..

FORMAT ALL....before flashing any ICS the first time.

If you are on GB going to ICS, I suggest flashing the Odin leak first, then root, then flash a custom rom or you might have radio issues and other gremlins!

Make Apex launcher a system app through Ti..

I love the inverted apps, the skyrocket forums have some tweaks that work for the note....(15 toggle mod corrupts the usb mount)....so always make a back-up...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Mohammad_Adib:
I'll keep the flaming to a minimum, but anyway, a killer resume is something i already have, and I've used it to get places ;). But other than that, if someone had some pointers as to how CM9 or something legitimate can be ported to the Note, i would probably spend a great deal of time on that. I understand we need kernel source code or something to make Oveclock kernel or port cm9, but what does that mean? And why did samsung not release the kernel source with the leak? Its kind of confusing!

---------- Post added at 09:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:39 PM ----------

Okay, well i would seriously love to develop ICS further, but where do i start. You say i can read? Learn? From where? Give pointers instead of random suggestions :P

---------------------

Also, it's really funny how people misspell my name LOL. I'm fine with it but it is really funny lololz

---------- Post added at 09:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:42 PM ----------

Sounds interesting. I don't do any programming in Android related to Launchers or Widgets. (I mostly do tools/networking apps. If you want search me up on Play Store). Anyway, for problem 1, the obvious problem is that the code that sMemo uses to write a PDF is throwing exceptions. Why? I don't know. Is there any way to look inside the code in an APK? I don't know if the .class files are included in it like in a jar. If the .class files are in it, i can decompile and recompile the Java. But what doesnt make sense right away is what does the OS have to do with the code that takes an sMemo and makes a PDF out of it? Wierd. As for the second problem, i thought Apex accepted that widget? You use APEX!? Why!? It lags with widgets on it! But anyway, i bet the launcher and widget have to interact in some way to negotiate where the widget will sit on the launcher and what not, and that code in the sMemo launcher may be broken? Again, these are guesses i have not dealt with Widgets or Launchers in Android development yet. All i have done in android is making apps, OpenGL 3D rendering, Live wallpaper making, and networking stuff.

From the Moderator ....Learning .........

Mohammad adib...... This thread is not the place to find out how to write code or program a rom per se. The function of these threads are specific to the Rom presented.

If you want a lesson or want to learn, then go to The Android forums at the top of the forum index page and or go to the General section in this forum specific section .

http://xdaforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=564

do not try to sidetrack the purpose of this thread or any other, it just causes unneeded problems and will not produce the results you want........

Apex has been really smooth for me, twiz on the other hand has been a lagomuffin especially when widgets are there.

It would be great to be able to export to pdf from sMemo though.

Some apps from Google Store "not compatible"?

Hi guys,

I've discovered that some apps don't show up when searched for in the Google Play store. These include:

-Better Battery Stats

-Yelp

-Mint

-Pandora

If I try to install them via the Android store webpage, my phone is flagged not compatible.
