Hi

I got this while playing with the face unlock stuff after the initial update. I did a hard reset to get shot of any left over junk, and have not re-enabled the face unlock, and have not seen the pixel-fest since. I suspect it was not using face unlock rather than the hard reset that sorted.

Bugs I have found so far :

Phone does not connect to computer via KIES.

Many bugs using original car dock - phone app closes when dialing, calls dropped when using Bluetooth - I did not try vertical mode yet

Phone randomly stops entering deep sleep mode , BetterBatteryStats lists a kernel wakelock called : l2_hsic . This does not impact battery time by much, but still annoying

Phone randomly reboots while screen is off - but I had this in gingerbread too

In call log , when I clicked a number it used to show me all the times that number called, now it does not.

Sometimes the phone forgets the personal ring tone assigned to a contact and uses default ring tone

... that's all I can think of right now, the good side is the ROM is MUCH FASTER in touchwiz and other apps..
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Braxos:
L2_HSIC does affect battery had 6hours kernel wakelocks from it.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] veletron:
To those with sleep issues, have you tried full wipe then reinstall Apps? I had issues with not sleeping and battery life, but since hard resetting, thee phone sleeps fine. Its not as painful to do this with ics since it will auto reinstall apps. (Configure backup and restore in settings before reset). Its supposed to backup app configs as well, but I found this did not work (many apps have their own mechanism to backup their config)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] TheTen:
Currently irritated to death by the random reboots while in sleep. Sometimes 18 hours apart... Sometimes 18 minutes apart.

On LPY stock but rooted.

By "Pixel salad" you mean multi coloured horizontal lines filling the screen up?

I got this when I woke my phone up and was about to unlock it (pattern lock) when I received a call...

I decided to swipe answer to see if it still functioned and it did...

It appears when the keyboard is displayed so that you can change keyboard if you wish, as opposed to using long press in GB.

having frequently used apps moved to SD card may cause random reboot. nothing to do with 'screen off' but worth checking.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] RandomXIII:
I have no complaint about ICS except that the battery life is abysmal and the audio hiccup all the time.

I am currently on LPY. Wondering if you guys have the same issues. The audio hiccup is the most annoying. Don't know how to describe it. It's like music skipping while playing. It happened even on zPlayer and Poweramp so it's not stock music player dependent. At first I thought that my sd card is failing but when I tried to play it on my PC, all the music files played normal without any hiccups.

In my case I cannot use skype and I keep getting this error message "you cannot be signed in at this time. Please try again later". So far I have tried clearing app data, force closing, reinstalling and installing modded and older versions of skype and no luck still. Skype is running just fine on my laptop.

I am on rooted LPY.

I use "voice talk" when driving and often launch it by double clicking the home button. However I notice that every 2nd or 3rd time i launch it, the microphone doesn't respond (the blue concentric circles indicating sound don't move). Clicking done makes it ask to try again and the microphone works normally.

He did make it specific....he said "stock Note ICS 'LPY' firmware". Did you not read his original post? Before you try to sound clever, read before you post!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Braxos:
Use the widget and adjust brightness to very low. Now Open stock browser and set there the brightness to automatic. Go to a app like Facebook, tapatalk and open a Page where you get directed to the browser to open it. Press home button now. Go to the widget and press synchronization button on or off doesn't matter now you will see the brightness button that was black to jump from alone to auto. I guess that's the automatization process of Samsung.

Stock ROM, updated last night (waited for the initial flood to pass).

"Email" application (not GMAIL) for my exchange account, I can now no-longer see all my folders for the account.

Previous function, when looking at all email accounts (4 setup on the phone, 1 Hotmail, 2 Gmail, 1 Exchange) I could click the account name on the top of the screen and get a list of all folders. Now clicking the Menu button to get the option to look at folders, only shows Inbox, Drafts, Outbox, Sent, Trash, Junk E-Mail, RSS Feeds. Even putting a test email in "Junk", nothing shows on the phone.

Cell Signal, the Bars for carrier signal used to be full, sitting in the exact same locations I am now getting only 1 bar, and call reception is next to absent.

Other than those, ICS has been doing fine.

---------- Post added at 10:48 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:29 AM ----------

Confirming the first one, the email widget is behaving terribly.

Second issue, I have tested it 5 times and the stock media player has been stopping for me when I power off the BT headset (Samsung HS3000).

However this raises another issue/bug that I'm seeing. When powering on the HS3000, it no longer connects to the Note, I have been manually going into the BT settings, it sees the device and shows it being paired and it will connect once instructed to via the menu. Previous to this, just by turning on the HS3000 and pressing the play/phone/most any button, it is ready to roll and connected.

K9 or Kaiten email per chance?

I lost the folders that went with all accounts except the 1st one in the list. Ended up removing and re-adding the accounts to get the folders back.

Nigel
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] coderedcomputing:
Neither K9 or Kaiten, just the standard Email app on the Note.

I just deleted the Exchange account, and re-added it. No luck. Only 1 Inbox, cannot see any of the folders that are on the server.

Not a 100% dealbreaker with ICS, but I may just flash back to GB if this doesn't get fixed soon.

The cell signal issue is really bothering me though. I've missed 4 calls today, getting 0-2 bars as I sit here.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] veletron:
I note that the UsbStorageUnmounter wait lock bug was never fixed in ics. This occurs when you use a USB stick via a USB OTG adapter. It does not matter whether you unmount properly, you get a permanent wait lock that prevents the phone from sleeping. The fix is to restart the phone. Unfortunately, I sometimes forget this, and end up with a flat battery! See attached image for waitlock (done for this post). This is a very simple issue that should have been fixed by now.

I also note still missing from ICS:

- IMAP IDLE support in Stock email client

- Support for exFAT (important for storing files over 4GB on MicroSD cards or flash media connected via USB OTG)

Finally Added to ICS:

- Bluetooth PAN support so your laptop can use your phones 3G connection via bluetooth, which wont flatten the phones battery so quick, or make it heat up.

+1 for car dock phone app close problem. Me, my brother and my father have Galaxy Notes and we all have this phone app close problem connected to car dock. I just seen the vertical position solution so i'm gonna give it a shot.

Wireless connection keeps getting disconnected for me from time to time even it seems connected. I recognise it's disconnected when i try to browse internet or start apps using online data. Anyone can second this issue?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] veletron:
Yep, sorry, I noticed that it was the stock client after I submitted...

FYI, I can see the folders on my exchange account via Settings-->Folders option. Initially, I had no messages showing up in these folders, but if you tap-and-hold a folder and goto 'sync options' you'll note that it takes the default 'sync period' for the account. For my inbox, 2 weeks is fine, but for some of my folders, I need to be able to see older messages. Fortunately, the 'sync period' may be set on a per-folder basis. It all works fine after that.

Nigel
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] coderedcomputing:
I can second this one. Just yesterday, sitting in the same spot with strong signal (80%) on our corp wi-fi, ran netflix fine for 45m. Today, every few minutes the signal would drop, and I'd get the pop-up saying it reconnected. No effect on the streaming of the video, but annoying.

Tried shutting off wi-fi and letting it locate the strongest signal, but it seems like the signal just vanishes, or the wi-fi is just losing its grip.

This is becoming more and more bothersome.

---------- Post added at 03:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:28 PM ----------

Now this is odd. I have no "Settings-->Folders" option anywhere on the stock email client. I only get the option by using the menu button to go to the folders list and it's empty on every account. :confused:
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] veletron:
Yep, that's very odd. Config on the exchange server perhaps? See the attached screenshots for what mine looks like..
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] coderedcomputing:
I can see that option here, but it shows only a generic set of folders....on all accounts. It seems less an issue with exchange, as it affects the gmail accounts too.

For now just hoping a patch comes out sometime soon.

Kinda offtopic but what's the 'R' connection speed stand for? I've never seen it before.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] veletron:
'R' is for roaming. Its usually reserved for when one is over seas, but my operator '3' has an agreement with another uk operator 'orange' to use its 2G voice network. I get a crap signal from '3' at home so the phone roams to orange.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] CLANK10:
I found one bug, but I couldn't find anyone in the forum talking about.

I have a German Note, and got the update day 1. I upgraded OTA and it had this bug in swype keyboard when typing: When I'm using whattsapp, after I send a message, when I click again, it always repeats the last word, anyone heard of this?

I already did a full wipe in home+power+vol+ menu and the bug is still there.

Any recommendation? Is this a swype config problem?

Really thanks

May not be exactly what you're looking for, but I'll sync all contacts from facebook even on GB. Then I'll go into contacts hit menu, then more and go to Display options and then check Only contacts with phone numbers. This way all your facebook photos/names will be synced, but you will only see the ones with phone numbers.

bugs on LPY

well. these are my issues.

first, i cannot take screen-shots with home + power buttons, something i use very often.

second, before my gameloft games ran on WXGA, now they run on HD, so there is a black frame in the bottom of the screen and the games are unresponsive for you have to test where to touch. needless to say they are slower than before.

finally, I use to underclock the phone to 1Ghz, but now the battery drains faster than GB, even when I already made all the possible solutions posted here.

so lets hope this will be fixed in a new release
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] fjevel:
Using the German ROM and had a hard crash the other day while using the stock browser. Everything turned green with bits of a distorted picture from the browser in between the green lines.

Had to keep the power button pressed until the phone rebooted. Nothing else worked.

I've got Modern Combat 3 on my ICS (LPY) Note and it appears to fit the screen correctly and respond well. I don't know whether it makes a difference, but I have my DPI set to 240.

I'm on the stock LPY ROM and have only had two issues so far:

- Torch widget wasn't working. Couldn't use the LED as flash in the camera app either. Power cycled and the problem was gone.

- Google's Listen (podcatcher app) no longer allows play/pause from a Bluetooth stereo headset.

And sad that exFAT isn't supported in the ICS ROM. Probably Samsung's way of encouraging people to downgrade to the SGS3.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] coderedcomputing:
BWAAHAHAAHAHAA Dying over here...

Ok so... no luck on Exchange folders showing up, still.

Gmail accounts have suddenly straight up fuXorD... They now mark every email as new, hit them all as read, switch to the next email account and BAM all are unread again. Over and over... did this 4 times on 2 accounts last night. Phone off, rebooted, battery pulled, deleted accounts, nothing changed.

So as it sits now, I have 60+ new emails that I cannot mark as read. At all.

I got no updates to ICS or anything, it just... changed.

This weekend I'm going back to GB, this is fail on so many levels.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Nazar78:
Another 2 bugs to add:

1) After saving which contacts to display in the custom view, if by any chance you try to open the contact list from another source like WhatsApp or 3rd party launcher or widget, the display will reset to all contacts.

2) During a phone call, turn on the speaker then turn off, the phone call volume will drop very low!

Intermittent - No reconnect when coming from celular dead-spot

I have had this a few times on my commute:

When emerging back into a coverage area after phone has been in a dead-spot, it refuses to find the network. The trick of switching to flight mode and back does not work (phone enters flight mode, refuses to turn return back to normal mode - button does nothing). Only solution is to restart phone.

I do the same train-route every day, and it does this about once/week. Perhaps its related to whether or not there is actual data-transfer going on when entering dead-spot.

I am not sure if this is just on my N7000 ICS XXLPY, but the compass points to wrong direction. It's like 175 degree off (ie: North is actually pointing almost to South). I confirmed that it was alright when it was on stock GB. Multiple recalibration attempts by making figure 8 movement didn't help. Anyone has the same problem?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] diamondpillow:
I am facing,

1. High android OS usage. Sometime its higher than Brightness, and most of the time its highest usage of batt after brightness. (I read somewhere, it said its calculation errors, but I think its not, cause my battery no longer last that long.)

2. Camera will sometimes fail to operate. I really dunno what is wrong with that.

3. Phone just cant go into deep slp. Its being kept awake by some apps (Which I cant narrow it) Using BetterBatteryStats, I found out its

I2_HSIC

. (Whats this I2_HSIC ??)

I am using a 5400mAh mugen batt. previously on GB, my usage can last me 24hrs, now it can only last 16hrs or less. I installed lesser apps, and lesser widgets. Disable account sync and google backup. Settings more or less kept the same.

Overnight my batt can reduce by 21%, it never happened before. lol. ICS...

so no clue abt I2_HSIC yet? btw I did a search on HSIC, and found out to be High-Speed Inter-Chip, which I do not know if its in anyway related to what we need to know abt I2_HSIC.

ICS Problems and Future update needed

1) There is no "My story" app after the update to ICS version DDLP4 (Baseband Version).

2)Fast draining of battery and full charge of battery comes just for half a day.

3)Improper widget and most of the widgets are 4*1 or 4*2 aspect.(Photos uploaded how the widgets should look)

4)No new Touchwiz as it is in Galaxy SIII and Galaxy R (recently announced)

5)No music player widget yet in Galaxy NOTE

6)Lack of Smart stay,S Beam,S Voice,Popup play,Direct Call,Social Tag,Burst shot (upto 20 photos),Smart alert.

7)Deleting of videos from video gallery takes time and hangs up at times.Also no preview of videos in video gallery as in Galaxy SIII.

I wish Samsung could provide this update where galaxy note will become complete Phablet without any issues.

Camera/Gallery delete but physical file still exists

Can anyone confirm the physical file gets deleted when you delete from Camera or Gallery? I got the feeling it's only deleting the cache as I'm able to see the file (not thumbnail) from file manager.

Edited: seems I only have this issue after clearing the DCIM folder.

Another stupid thing or may be a bug is that I can't use the Camera or Gallery (even the file select function) when media server is still running.
