SD CARD

Here is a guide for formatting external SD card without reader are here.

Guide_to_format_external_SD_card_without_reader.

Here is another way to format SD card http://www.online-tech-tips.com/comp...ive-to-fat-32/

My SD card is not working. Try this. EaseUS

Will my 64 gb sd card work? Except it works fine with a 64GB card. http://rootzwiki.com/topic/28124-doe...card-standard/ The SGSIII is the first phone to support exfatl, but the support is Kernel based, some people are having trouble with the replacement kernels and exfat support. The solution is to force it to format in FAT32. http://www.online-tech-tips.com/comp...ive-to-fat-32/ I know, because I've done it. --- Don't respond without actually doing research. I have no problem spoon feeding information, especially when the information you put out there can increase misinformation. The SGSII also supports a 64GB card as well. http://androidforums.com/samsung-gal...ing-sgsii.html

Facebook won't sync.

Try Friendcaster or facebook_contact_sync.

FAST CHARGE

Storage options will not work with fast charge on.

FAUX SOUND

Faux_sound_in_Playstore

Task has added patches to be able to use this. It is worth the money.

Disable HW to stop flickering

Disable HW tick will not stick after reboot. This is the way it is suppose to be. This will still help with any type of flickering, usually.

If you are having some weird sh!t going on.

Redownload rom and gapps

Wipe data factory reset

Wipe dalvik and cache

In mounts and storage select Format System

Then flash rom and gapps

Reboot task650

Gapps

You must flash Gapps AFTER every flash of the ROM.

Use the Gapps in Task's OP or any Gapps package you want. They are just Google apps.

Sometimes you may have to flash Gapps twice - they have been notorious for not taking the first time.

Read the OP to see if a new version of gapps is required.

UPDATING APPS INCLUDED IN GAPPS

Delete app you are wanting to update with titanium back up.

Reboot

Install newer version of app

Google now

Phone language has to be set to english for google now to work.

My google apps are working correctly. If it was just the play store force closing all you would've needed to do is reflash gapps. gapps is notorious for not taking the first try. but you always have to flash gapps after a rom install and make sure to clear cache and dalvik. no issues should occur if those steps are taken. Task. Make sure you are using the correct gapps!

Task and Ktoon do not support google wallet. There are fixes available but don't ask Task or Ktoon to fix it.

You can't remove the google search bar with default launcher but you can with nova or apex.

GPS

GPS not working correctly isn't always the ROMS fault. Sometimes its the satellites.

Make sure you have internel GPS selected.

Try flashing original stock and then come back to this rom if you have flashed a TW based rom.

To change your number of home screens

You must use Apex or Nova launcher, possibly some other third party launcher. But the default launcher will not allow you to do this.

You must use Nova or a third paryt home screen to disable search bar.

If you flash other things like inverted gapps or change things from the original packaging of this rom and something goes wrong or doesnt work. Think about it. We cannot support those issues here. This thread is for this rom and gapps that are posted in the OP. Thanks. task650

Inverted gapps are awesome but not supported in Tasks thread.

If you are using inverted gapps and having problems - full wipe and reinstall rom and gapps in the OP and see if problem still persists.

Go here for support of inverted gapps. > http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2138156

IRC

Task has started and IRC channel for his rom. ##Task650_AOKP

KERNEL:

If you are using any kernel other than the one packaged with this ROM please post questions and problems to the appropiate kernel thread.

you need to understand that all devices are NOT created equally. one kernel might work awesome on my device while at the same time it may work horrible on your device. so to say that Ktoonsez says it works awesome, that means it works awesome for him. It has nothing to do with how it will work for you. If the symptoms that you're talking about are happening with that kernel it's obvious that your device doesn't like that kernel. Easy fix. Use a different one.

If you are using Ktoon's awesome kernel and experiencing problems, try reflashing with the kernel included with this ROM and see if the problem still persists. This may help understanding if the problem is kernel or ROM related and will help benefit development of both.You can full wipe and reflash rom and gapps to be back on original kernel.

If you wish to run another kernel other than what comes with the rom, Task suggest loading rom with included kernel, set up phone, then flash the kernel you want.

Governor/IO scheduler

Change these in performace control in settings

If you do not tick set on boot they will revert upon reboot.

This is a safety check in so you can try settings out before you make them permanent.

Last report in Feb is that Task uses row and interactive as his settings.

LED

LED charging works exactly as it should.

0%-%10 = Red

%10-%90 = Yellow

%90-100 = Green

You can't change the colors for LED Charging unless you download the source and rewrite that portion of code.

You can only change the colors for the Notification LEDs not battery indication color.

Make sure you have "pulse notification light" checked - uncheck to turn LED notification off.

Some colors will not work. Test LED color before relying on it.

Go here for some LED color talk. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1890774

DO NOT USE LIGHTFLOW WITH THIS PHONE - DOESN'T WORK WELL. LED CONTROL WORKS FINE ON ITS OWN.

To set LED for miss phones calls>>

choose Activities>Contacts>Phone/ activities.CallLogActivities

Please do not post links for Task's ROM or gapps. He wants to keep count of downloads. Thanks.

If you don't have LTE in your area it's not draining your battery.

AT&T is phasing out the old non LTE apn either way so we will all be using the same "LTE" apn. Network mode has nothing to do with you if your on AT&T service. That's only for the Canadians.

Also see 14 and 15 in FAQ post 1.

MD5 sum is located in goo.im via download link.

MODEMS

This ROM does not include a modem. You will have whatever you had.

Modems are location based. Try this and see which one works best for you.

Any modem questions should go HERE.

OTA Updates/RECOVERY

OTA updater is a convienence. If you have problems using the OTA update just flash manually through CWM or TWRP.

CWM 5.5.0.4

cwm flashable

http://www.mediafire.com/?8rs5rq2a0ldhgut

TWRP X.X.X.X

Last report in Feb is that Task uses row and interactive as his settings.
