[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] taob:
I've been enjoying h0tw1r3d's work on porting CM9 over to the Note, so thank you very much for that!

I have run into a problem now about three times over the span of about two weeks. Occasionally, the screen will stop updating. For example, I have a live wallpaper on my home screen (I'm running GO Launcher) and it will not be moving. If I swipe to switch screens, no visible change is seen. However, I know GO Launcher has reacted to the swipe, because I can press on the screen, say, on where an app icon should be, and it will launch. Launching an app forces the screen to update. Pulling down the notification bar also forces an update.

When the phone is in this condition, it will almost always affect the launcher (probably because of the live wallpaper). Sometimes the problem will also be evident in other apps, or even with the keyboard (SwiftKey 3 beta). For example, I will start typing, and the key pop-ups will appear, but then not disappear. I can continue typing, but no text will show up, and the keyboard will appear to be frozen. However, pulling down the notification bar (as above) will force whatever text box I'm in to update, and I can see what I just typed.

Running a logcat at those times will show a lot of entries like this:

06-15 17:04:40.284 E/OverlayUI( 176): Queuebuffer failed
06-15 17:04:40.304 E/OverlayUI( 176): Queuebuffer failed

06-15 17:04:40.585 E/OverlayUI( 176): closeChannel: closeOVSession() failed.

I'm not a kernel developer, but these messages are emitted from liboverlay. I'm guessing something related to it not being able to reserve or lock enough memory as a framebuffer? Doing a hot reboot (i.e., restarting Dalvik) does not fix the issue. I have to do a full reboot to clear the problem, which makes sense if the cause is down in the kernel somewhere and not at the app level.

I'm running the same app mix as before, when I had the leaked AT&T ICS ROM on here. No such problem there, so I suspect it is something in AOSP or the CM9 port to the Note. Anyone else run into this problem of the screen not updating?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] :
Never had that problem. Are you using any new or different widgets than normal?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] :
Yeah, probably had to be here then to realize it, also the op date on that kernel is fairly old now and before we had ics. Once of those read between the lines or had too be there things lol. Glad you got it sorted.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Coffinfeeder:
Da_G's OC kernel was released like 1 or 2 days after the ATT note first came out. Of course it's just for gingerbread.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] C0BRA01:
Bought a new 64Gig memory card for my note. Copied some files to it once, and it actually shut off during the copy.

2nd time around, it rebooted. Both times, this is copying TO the phone.

Temporarily installed the Collective Kang rom, and files copy to my phone just fine without any problems.

I know there is a speed issue with copying to the memory card on this, rom, but wanted to add this issue to it as well. All of the files that cause the error were 512 megs, or larger. The test file I used was over 900 megs.

Anyone else having a problem with google maps not being installed? Ive flashed Gapps and tried flashing CM9 multiple times but it wont install google maps or navigation
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] :
Have you tried downloading it from play store...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] dsp0704:
Ok I thought it was something I did that made the copy speed to external sdcard ridiculously slow.. I think to copy 4gb took almost an hour.

And by the way, how did you put 64gb card? I thought Note only supported upto 32gb? Am I wrong? If so, that just so stupid of me, I could have bought 64gb for the price of 32gb.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] :
I've had a 64 inside my Note since day one. Works mighty fine.

Why do you guys like tablet mode so much? What specifically do you get out of it? I've tried multiple DPI's and, well, giant bag of "meh" for me. I always go back to 320. I realize it's a different strokes for different folks kind of thing.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] C0BRA01:
It's the way that it's formatted that the Note doesn't support, or pretty much any android device from what I have read. You just need to reformat it Fat32. Even the old HD2 will support 64gb cards. A great tool for that is called the Mini Tool Partition Wizard. It also supports formatting EXT4, and EXT3 etc... for those with phones that may need that. BTW, I went back to h0tw1r3's version right away. His still seems the best.

Where would you get a 64gb card for the price of a 32gb one? The MicroSDXC cards are more money. You must be paying way too much for 32gb cards. :)

flashed this, everything working smoothl except my gps wont connect anymore. any solutions? thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] taob:
Nope, same launcher, same live wallpaper, same set of widgets as before. There have been updates to things, of course, but I cannot say that has anything to do with it. The problem happens very rarely, so right now I don't have a clue as to what might trigger it. The only lead so far is the presence of those error messages. I have not seen them appear at any other time.

I believe the symptoms are most obvious on the home screen because of the live wallpaper. The "Queuebuffer failed" messages continually scroll by when the wallpaper should be displayed. Next time this happens, I'll try to switch to a static wallpaper to see what happens.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] taob:
Just wanted to chime in to add another data point. I was texting a friend just now, and the notification sounds were being played normally out the speaker. During one reply, the heel of my hand was accidentally in contact with the search button. This caused Voice Search to come up briefly. This was enough that the notification of the next SMS to come in (only a few seconds later) was played out the earpiece instead of the speaker.

The quick fix is to make a call (I call my voicemail as well), and hang up while on speakerphone.

I like phone mode but it has to be 214 dpi. In tab mode I don't like 213-173. 172 is highest I would go. My current dpi set 160 lol. It was the highest dpi which gave me 7x8 grid without installing another launcher.

COBRA01

I bought my lexar 32gb for I believe 60 at best buy. But they had 64gb on sale for about same price. If I only knew... hey does that mean u can use 128gb sdcards?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] C0BRA01:
If you can cram them in there. lol. All the ones like that I have seen are full size. Have not seen a 128gb MicroSDXC yet. Now if you have a Transformer that's a different story. :) If you paid that much for a 32gb card, then the 64gb one was probably a full size one. The 32gb ones are a lot cheaper now, more like $30.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] CalcProgrammer1:
Could you post the process you took to compile this ROM? It would allow more users to build so we could have more frequent updates. It would be really nice if we got a nightly build system like other CM devices have. Is the i717 an available target when building or are you compiling for a different phone with similar hardware (settings says Galaxy S2)?

If I knew how to set up the build I have a home Linux server that I could run builds on.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] wase4711:
I like this idea....
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] wish777:
Me too +1
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] h0tw1r3:
Added a thread to the Q&A section and a link to it in my sig. I don't have time to answer questions (ie. hold hands), but it should get you started. Enjoy.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] CalcProgrammer1:
Thanks! I've checked out the source, pulled the proprietary software from my phone (though it was running your CM9 R0 build, but if you copied from stock ICS it should be the same), and now I'm building. I may have to go back and fix my Java SDK (Ubuntu 12.04 doesn't have the sun-java-jdk, going to see what openjdk can do before trying to install it manually).

EDIT: Build was successful, after deleting the assert line at the beginning of the installer script it flashed and everything runs well. I forgot to flash gapps though, but otherwise the ROM runs fine. Uploading my build to Dropbox now if anyone wants it. The big thing I've seen different so far is the CyanogenMod boot animation now features the new Cid logo rather than the skateboarding android. I'm sure there are other fixes behind the scenes as well.

Download it here if you feel like testing it. I followed the directions hotwire gave in his new thread and all the proprietary software was pulled from hotwire's release which is what I was running on my Note.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ee23hd2:
Glad to see someone doing this. Its nice to see someone taking some initiative to learn and contribute! Kudos to you!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] CalcProgrammer1:
I've been wanting to learn how 'real' CM builds work for a while. I've built modified CM7 builds for my Archos tablet plenty of times, but they use a custom build script that you run in the cyanogenmod root directory. I've never bothered building for my TouchPad as it has nightly builds already. I still might try to automate the task on my server and try setting up every-other-nightly or bi-weekly builds, main issue would be finding a file host to auto-upload to.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] truth77:
So what does your rom do and have? Can we get a description.?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] builtboosted:
I'd like to know this as well
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] CalcProgrammer1:
It is a newer build of CyanogenMod 9. It is pretty much the same as hotwire's build in the OP but newer. CyanogenMod is a project with many developers, and they are very active, submitting patches and updates every day. Building a new ROM every so often keeps your phone up to date with these changes and improvements. So, while the ROM I just built doesn't have any significant features over hotwire's original post, it may contain under-the-hood updates, bug fixes, speed-ups, etc. You can look at the CyanogenMod Gerrit Code Review and see just how many updates have been submitted and merged since hotwire's build (6/6).
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] wish777:
Any way of implementing a different notification bar? Like aokp? With the text icons and a brightness slide bar within the status bar? ...I always love this mod and wished it could be a option.. ? Juat curious ..thank you
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] CalcProgrammer1:
You could use FJ mod which is CM-based (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1709525) but at least for the build I released it is pure CM9. I prefer the pure CM9 experience. You might be able to build AOKP using some of the CM changes but I haven't used AOKP or messed with it before. I like CM9's small icons in the notification bar as it leaves more room for notifications.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] tdamocles:
Are you continuing this thread as new nightly builds of cm9 or are you starting a new thread?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] CalcProgrammer1:
I'll start a new thread once I get builds set up on my server. I might not release every night but I'll try to keep it updated often.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] tdamocles:
Awesome!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Ray_Banci:
Sweet. Will we be able to "update" installing an entirely new rom? (Fact wipe, etc.)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] MechaGen:
Goo.im would be an ideal host! I love the idea of weekly or biweekly updates. I've been running CM builds on a number of devices for a year or so and tend to flash weekly anyway.

Really looking forward to your builds.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] :
Do you have a GAPPS package you prefer?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] CalcProgrammer1:
You should be able to flash over hotwire's build. It's the same thing, just updated.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] wase4711:
when you say "updated", can you post a change log, or something that will show what has been updated?

thanks

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Web-head:
Flashed CalcProgrammer1's updated build. Didn't factory wipe. Just wiped cache and Dalvik. Everything is running smoothly.

Only difference I've noticed is that the touch sounds have changed to the click noise that the GNex has. The bug where Voice Search makes the sound come from the earpiece instead of rear speaker, is still there. As Calc mentioned, the boot animation is the new Cyanogen Cid animation.

Battery seems to be a bit better, but can't say for certain yet.

If I notice anything Earth shattering, I'll report.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] MechaGen:
Where did you get CalcProgrammer1's update? Is there a new thread?

Please, it's Monday and I really need to flash. LOL

Can I just flash on top of build 6 without installing gapps. Also should I be using the newer base band 2?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] h0tw1r3:
Although CM9 is suppose to take care of copying gapps when you upgrade, I always reflash (it doesn't hurt).

I have not personally tested it, but support for older basebands was added awhile back. Let me know how it works for you :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] wish777:
Hotwire I have to say this is by far the best update...notifications ringtones...call volume and speakerphone is insanely loud holy poop.....this is awesome bro.....just amazed.. not one rom in development has fixed it yet...I love it...I give you props dev :thumbup:

Anyway to make my internal memory readable?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Web-head:
Thanks h0tw1r3 for this, as well as all other builds. Flashed and working great. Sound issue with S-Voice has indeed been fixed.

Quick question. Not a big deal but I'm just curious. Every release the sound for the touch sounds changes back and fourth. For example, the touch sounds on this release sounds like a pair of maracas basically. Then on the next release they sound like a click. The same click that the Galaxy Nexus touch sounds makes. Is this something that CM is changing every other release or are you switching the actual tones for touch sounds?

Not a big deal one way or the other, again, I'm just curious as its something that I noticed and wondered about for a while now.

Thanks again for your efforts.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Daman09:
This build still has the bug where photos taken with the camera are displayed in a certain orientation, regardless of how the camera was tilted. For example, if I take a photo and want to put it on twitter, it will be sideways if I take it in portrait mode. This only seems to happen when the photos come from the SD card, as when I take a photo from dropbox that was automagically uploaded onto dropbox, it maintains the correct orientation.

It's a pretty terrible bug, and it makes taking photos for MMS or email a pain.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] esincho:
That's a Samsung bug. All they phones I've had do that. Yes it's a pain, but I've gotten used to sending it to picsay first

PC to SDCARD write problems

H0tw1r3, has the write speed from PC to SDCARD been addressed in this release? I saw no mention of it. It actually caused rebooting, and phone shut down on a few times I tried it with my 64gb card. I experimented with another CM9 rom, and it had no speed, or copying issues. I have managed to copy some small files, but any large ones, cause major phone crashes.

Also, I tried two other chef's ROMs to see if the single core CPU bug exists in those as well as this ROM, and it does. Not entirely convinced it's a bug. It may have been some attempt on Samsung's part for battery conservation.

Happy to report that I tested the SDCARD, and not only does it seem to be fixed now, but actually copies faster than the other cm9 ROM I tried. Nice work H0tw1r3!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] truth77:
Its not a bug that's how it is until the CPU needs more then it fires up both and goes to 1.512 ghz. If you wanna force both cpu's online then use system tuner, it has that option.

I've been having an bluetooth issue with different versions of CM9. I paired my phone to a 2012 Toyota Highlander. The phone option works just fine, but the music streaming service is not. I did a fresh install of this rom without restoring settings from Google, same problem. I tried a combination of phone unpair, re pair, car on/off, phone reboot, cleared cache, dalvik, fixed permissions; still no luck. I did a nandroid restore back to Hybrid, and music streaming service works just fine on that rom. Is there something else I can do to troubleshoot it?

I tried FJ CM9 and Remix CM9, and the issue is also present in both. Any suggestions would be trully appreciated. Thank you.

I wonder if flashing an older modem could help.

Edit: I paired a Bose stereo Bluetooth headset and works fine. Somebody from another rom said it worked fine in his car.
