Just home from work and noticed some concern about cameras.Did a bit of checking on the 4.3 camera and at the moment can`t find anyway to save to extsdcard.

I did a full wipe install and have 2 cameras and 2 galleries.The default camera works as it should after selecting save to extsdcard on first use.

4.3 camera is optional in Aroma install so if you are having problems reflash v18 and don`t select the 4.3 camera.

[MOD]AOSP dialer & mms for v18

Hi there.

I did some mod for Omega V18, AOSP dialer & mms which i prefer compare to stock.

How-To

always make full backup

with any file explorer with root access, navigate to /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/

and manually delete mmssms.db, mmssms.db-shm & mmssms.db-wal

Note: this will delete all your sms, make sure u make a backup if u want to keep them

reboot into recovery & flash the zip attached: OmegaV18_AOSP_mms_contact_25july.zip

boot into phone, open application manager, clear data for Contacts

if u like my work, thanks button is usefull

If I install v18 without wipe over v17, will I be able to use my current camera app that saves to SD?

via Note 2

Edit: [MENTION=465104]paras[/MENTION] they will skip that version and release 4.3
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] zsandras:
As you said the 4,2 cam in not included in the new rom, so flashing v18 with/without wipe such as all system apps will be deleted. The cam release 4.3 is a wery nice tool, but the possibility to save data only on internal sd is just a bit problematic, moreover for those who have more apps installed. Now I`m using the old one saving data on external sd.

1- download cf auto root from chain fire and flash it using odin under the pda tab.. 2- now you're rooted..

3- MOST IMPORTANT - download andromizer app from play store and using it backup you're imei or efs image..

Copt it to you're pc..

4-download rom manager from play store follow the instructions on screen and u will get Cwm installed

5- lock and load omega in you're ext memory card and flash it using Cwm..

How to flash..

Wipe data/factory

Wipe cache

Wipe dalvik cache

Install from ext sd card..

Reboob..

Hi again everybody! Like I wrote, Wi-Fi problem is still in v18, but that wasn't only problem. Video calling from Hangouts didn't work to, app crashed every time, when I tried to call somebody.I flashed again ROM clean, with system, internal storage etc wipe, but didn't help me, problem(s) still here. So back on v17 and everything is ok again. But once again about this Wi-Fi problem: do they know about that in Samsung?? Here, in XDA are many Note 2 users complaining about same thing, that with stock kernel Wi-Fi is so slow, that it's impossible to use without restart, so I'm not the only one, that have this problem. But I don't get it, why they don't fix it in Samsung and do they know about this problem there? And maybe is possible somehow fix it in Omega ROM? Because this isn't normal, that more, than a half year me (and many other users) have to flash after every update old kernel back! So can anybody know something about this, are they working in Samsung with this problem or not?

Hi,

Previously I was on v16 and all was been ok. Today I load v18. I have installed all applications, I'm writing now, I can calling anyone but I cannot receive any call. There is a message on status bar that tell me that any number are blocked.

I try to search on phone settings but no blocked calls are select. No trasfer call are enable. So, where I can search to resolve my problem ?

I have installed as new rom (full wipe)

Damn, I think your IMEI has been messed up with, hope you have an EFS bakup for restoration, I'm not entirely sure about if this is the main reason or cause, but it just crossed my mind, dig into it and keep us posted with your findings.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] ImJamIN:
I have done backup. But that's not the problem. In fact my imei is correct.

Also if the problem was imei I cannot send sms or navigate or calling my friend.

I think that there is some settings that block automatically any enter call but I cannot find this.

It's strange because the rom is clear new

[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Atsco:
And one more problem: all my S notes are gone!? After I restored v17 Nandroid backup all my S notes are disappeared, so I flashed v18 again, but now same thing, when I'm singed in to Samsung account, there was a backup and I synced it, but S notes are still missing! I have a Titanium backup to, but when I'm restored it, and started S notes, I see my notes maybe 1 second and then they disappear again. So what's going on? And how I can get back these notes?

I myself upgraded from xxdme6 to xxdmg1 without issues.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Atsco:
V18 have some problems, Hangouts video calling don't work and for some users (example me) have a problem with Wi-Fi to. That's not a ROM problem, this problem is in stock Samsung kernel, but because Omega uses stock kernel, problem is in Omega to. So if you use Hangouts, flash v17, or wait a fix and if you find after flashing, that Wi-Fi is slow, after phone comes back from deep sleep, you have to flash older kernel. Without these problems is Omega Best Off The Best ROM in the Universe! ;)

Edit: And I lost all my S notes too with flashing today, and I have no idea, why that's happened, because I have backup in Samsung cloud, but I can't still get them back from there. And Titanium backup don't help me to, see them maybe 1 second and then they disappear again. So be careful with that to, do many backups, that you can and then...But if you don't use S note and Hangouts, then no problems.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] walox:
Thx for the room feedback, dude!.. mmm well when i have already installed omega, i come to say if i have these problems..

Mmm but if its a kernel problem, anybody has probe with other kernel? Perseus, for example.. i have in mind use perseus kernel with omega

[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Atsco:
Custom kernels are working fine, but I like to use Allshare Cast Dongle and this dongle works only with stock kernel. Maybe now there is a custom kernel to, that works with that Dongle, but today I tried Perseus again and it didn't work. And with Google search I didn't find any new information, that there is a custom kernel, that works with Allshare Dongle. So I'm flashing now already over a half year after every flashing, or update old kernel back, then using Triangle Away and after that dongle works fine. But still, that's not a normal, that I'm forced to use old kernel. But like I said, this isn't Indie, or Omega fault. But I'm still hopping, that maybe somebody in Omega team fixes this problem now...

[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Atsco:
Yes, that was first thing, that I did, but nothing...And like I said, restored v17 Nandroid and same thing, everything was fine, but S Notes wasn't there either. So flashed again v18, but nothing...So disappointed, but only good thing is, that I don't know why, but maybe week ago I did manually (copy-paste) backup from S note folders to external SD, and now I can't restore them, but I can look them one at the time directly from these backup folders. But it was and is really important to me, that I got them restored before, because these notes are my work stuff and I need them very much. So help needed!

P.S. Another important thing is, that Hangouts video calling don't work! I use it almost daily, so I hope, that fix is coming? Like we can see here, many other users confirmed, that this isn't only my problem! I understand, these kind of things happening, but I'm hoping that fix is coming soon!?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] ttav:
As i said earler,after flashing v18 a few times,i have no problems with S notes.Definately not a rom problem.Have you tried clearing cache in the S note app?

There is a new update for Hangouts.Have you tried it?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Atsco:
Tried once again, cleaned cache, deleted Samsung account, reinstalled that account, synced with my Samsung account, but all s notes are still missing...

And yes, Hangouts update fixed this another, crashing problem, so one problem is gone, two to go! Wi-Fi problem & S-Notes.

Thank you very much and to you have more ideas, what should I have to do? And why this happened? Because I did everything like I do before every update, flashing. I have a list, memo, where I wrote for my self step by step, what to I have to do, where, what backup, clean, what to wipe(I do clean install, with full wipe every time), what folders to empty etc, that's why I almost never had any problems and I know, I didn't do this time anything differently.

Question for early adopters of v18:

1. Are icon in notification fixed? I mean , do they become bigger after a while and only reboot bring them to normal dimension.

2. Wifi issues? Any kind of?

3. What modem is in v18? Any speed/data connection improvement?

4. Is multi window finally working? I mean abou dissappearing icons in mw mode which user put them out there once.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] mannyvinny:
1.YES..its fixed.nothing abnormal

2.NO..Is working normal

3.Its DDMG1-little improvement if samsung made

4.NO.Multiwindow still has bug..icons disappear for no reason
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Kapetan:
Well done then, except mw :(

Any other new issues? What about battery life?

I guess full wipe is not needed now when flashing from v17.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] mannyvinny:
Seriously battery life isn't very good in this rom..just lasts for a day in average use
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] ttav:
Sorry for the late reply but my manager was getting a wee bit angry with me vanishing to use my phone:eek:

You said earlier you had manually copied your S note files to your extsdcard. Were they saved with the .snb file ext?

I`ve just copied a few to my extsdcard,renamed them by adding test in the file name and copied them back to sdcard/S Note.

They all appear and work when i open the S Note app.

---------- Post added at 04:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:11 PM ----------

I`ve done full and non full wipe installs during testing and i notice that with a full wipe it is a wee bit smoother.Probably due to the fact that a lot of deadwood is brought into the new rom with a non full wipe.I much prefer a full wipe.

Battery life is fine for me.Definately not worse then v17 which was excellent.

The new modem is also good for me...stronger signal.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Simone:
I have tried the latest Omega, Android Revolution HD and Wanamlite. They all have the same good battery life.

Your case must be a user error. I manage to get 6-7 hours daily screen time with stock battery. Wifi but no use of mobile data.

[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Kapetan:
Did you wiped v17 fully, or just flashed v18 over it?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Simone:
Hi,

With every full wipe, you will experience less or most probably, no problems.

So please, if it's just possible, do a full wipe every time you flash a new ROM regardless if it's the same brand name.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Kapetan:
Okay, I understand that.

I'm trying to avoide massive back up of apps/settings.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Simone:
I full wipe every time I flash a ROM regardless of anything and I don't have a nandroid backup. LOL

Nothing bad has happened ever since.

I do have a Titanium backup and a backup of my EFS. That's all I needed ever since.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Kapetan:
Efs backed up.

Tell me something, it has been a while since I used Titanium, is it still good for settings backup and app data?

Does app data conflict with google app data backup somehow?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] shhbz:
its considered to be the best one click backup and restore plus other add on
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Simone:
No issues so far. I have been using it for a year or less.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Atsco:
Don't know, is it me or is it true, but v18 feels much smoother and faster, then previous version, so I'm really glad, that I updated to this version! Battery life is really good to, over 12 hours on battery, 4 h 24 m screen time and 52% left juice. Not bad, not bad at all! Without these little problems, that I have with Wi-Fi and S-Notes, this is perfect ROM! So thanks again Indie and Omega team!
