I have a question. which one is the best option?

I have installed the rom with stock kernels. if i install the perseus kernel over this, have I get a problem. or should i install the rom from the beginning with perseus kernel.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] wesamothman:
Stay with stock as the new base stock kernel and modem is known and optimized for better battery life. Noticeable difference and improvement.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] kasra001:
I flashed persus kernel...........can I revert back to stock kernel without reinstalling the rom?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] wesamothman:
You should be able to. Just nandroid just in case. Changing kernels should be fine.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] drewlim:
I have been having problems with gps slow locking and most of the time not locking at all after flashing v17 with a clean wipe. I came from v16 using perseus kernel and i wasnt having this kind of problem before. Will flashing perseus over the stock rom of v17 solve my gps problem?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] wesamothman:
GPS has nothing to do with kernel. It is about Config and signal reception.

Nandroid your rom.

Flash gps changer tool from here and check.

Guys, plz help me. After upgrading to Omega v17, I can not hear anything when making a phone call.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Pinnacle74:
No issues here.

Did you come from Omega v16 or another ROM?

Does MD5 match?

Did you do a full wipe when flashing?

If not, you should really try to full wipe.

I was running Omega v15 with Perseus alpha36.3. Before upgrading, I has checked md5, It matched. I did not do the full wipe n dont wanna do that (might lose a lot of settings). One more thing, after doing upgrade, It is very hot at the top of my Note 2.

Now I am removing battery and waiting for temp cool down.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] ttav:
Totally agree mate:)I`m very happy with the new stock kernel.

You could try it but i have to say that gps is working fine for me on V17 with stock kernel.

---------- Post added at 01:17 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:11 PM ----------

I would advise you to do a full wipe.I`m not having not having any call or overheating issues.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Pinnacle74:
I agree with ttav, just do a nandroid backup then try a full wipe install to rule out that option.

If it still does not work after the full wipe install you can flash back your nandroid backup and if it works after a full wipe perhaps it's better to change the settings manually again than having a semi-useless phone?

Is any of your 9 themes for the rom updated?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Atsco:
I'm so, SO disappointed about that WiFi problem in Samsung stock kernel, because that this problem is in Omega ROM to...it's a great, the BEST ROM ever, thanks again to Indie, bought Omega files Pro only, because I wanted to support him, and all team, and if there wasn't that problem, another donation was a sure thing. But now, reading good things about new kernel I just feel disappointed, because I had to flash again old kernel. Does somebody in Omega team knows, are Samsung working on this problem? Are they knowing about that problem at all? Or is there going to be fix in Omega ROM in the next version? Or maybe sooner? HELP!
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] GonDr:

Here is stock kernel XXDME6
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] rajil.s:
I too have wifi problems with all custom roms based on 4.1.2 and so am still running stock 4.1.1 which is working well here.

Your post seem to suggest that it is possible to use omega 4.1.2 with an older kernel and not have wifi problems. Can you confirm what kernel you are running?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Atsco:
Jep, using Omega v17 (that ROM is 4.1.2) and with kernel XXDLJ2 everything working fine. In all kernels after that kernel is this slow WiFi problem. And probably all custom kernels working fine to, I tried only Perseus and it worked fine. But with custom kernels I can't use Allshare Cast Dongle, that's why I'm back in stock N7100XXDLJ2 kernel.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Nathalex27:
If anyone is interested.

Running omega v17 and perseus 36.3.

1400mhz cpu 75mv undervolt on all states.

533 gpu 50mv undervolt on all states.

600mhz freq for responsiveness.

See screenshots :).

Amazing. 6 hours screen on. 1 day + use and 28% left... I love Omega and perseus. Combo made in heaven.

Will change banner 2morrow btw...

Sent from my GT-N7100
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Nathalex27:
Why would I do that?

The only thing I do is turn of mobile data and wifi at night to save battery and screen brightness is at minimum.

Its weekend so wifi mostly.

But this are real results.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] mfractal:
The graph clearly shows you charged it :)
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Atsco:
Flashed v17 once again because of that WiFi problem, but problem is still there. This problem disappears, when I turned in *#0011# WiFi Power Save off, but then phone drains to much battery. But now I have another question: can somebody please explain to me, what that MD5 means!? And do I have to check it, when I'm flashing ROMS, and if so, then why? When I flashed that v17 again hour ago, then I checked it first time, and there was an answer, that something went wrong etc, but when I flashed ROM without it, all went ok, and now I'm using my Note 2 and everything seems to be alright. So what this MD5 means? And why you are using it?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Mashari_F:
what the best kernel in terms of performance/power save for this rom, it's beem a long time since i had a kernel on my note 2
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] black_eagle5000:
I have done that, wipe everything, reinstall rom. That hearing phone call problem has gone. But there is still a over heating issue, the top of device is still very hot even when I aint run anything.

Can anyone send me the link of Omega v15 and v16
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] ttav:
I would say the stock kernel.V17 runs fine and smooth with great battery life for me using stock.

I`ll admit i haven`t tried any custom kernels on V17 yet,mainly because i haven`t felt the need to.

No doubt others will recommend their favourite kernel soon;)

As there is no perfect kernel that suits everyone the only way is to try them all and find the one that suits you best.

---------- Post added at 08:28 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:08 AM ----------

Glad your phone call problem has been resolved:)

What sort of Temperature are you getting on idle and under stress?

There can be a lot of reasons for overheating,rogue apps and faulty battery among them.

I`m having no overheating problems.My device does warm up with heavy use but is nothing extreme.

---------- Post added at 08:38 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:28 AM ----------

I use MD5 to check my downloaded file for any corruptions which may have occurred during the download.It`s just a safety measure.

Any idea of the error message you got?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] black_eagle5000:
Oh no, it comes back again, after I restore my settings. Oh nooooo

Plz send me the link of Omega v15, I want to come back. Plzzzz help me
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] ttav:
I don`t have any links to previous versions sorry.

Surely you have a nandroid backup somewhere?

We emphasise over and over again to always make a nandroid before flashing a update or trying out new themes etc.

[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Atsco:
My mistake, forget to take screencapture and now I don't remember correctly, what problem that was. But it's not a big job to flash all ROM again, if you think, that this can solve somehow that problem with WiFi!? If so, I flash that ROM again and send screencapture for you!

Edit: I think that there isn't possible to take screencapture when flashing, but I can write down all info, if it's important.

*sigh* another download of 1 GB with 180KB/s.

When you do not want mirrors, can't you at least choose a filehoster with a decent free user speed?

Please think about it!

(And don't tell me to use torrent again, it is not working in my network)
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Mastakony:
Torrent works fine... So Change your network...

Or buy a depositesfiles account...

And if it's not good for you, just change rom cooker....
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] wesamothman:
When you come to xda and want to download a rom, show some respect and all your suggestions can be taken into consideration then.

Your tone is kind of offensive. But let it pass now.

Omega work is for free. Hosting on servers cost money. Not to mention the bandwidth too. And the efforts we put ti cook you the rom.

Torrents work fine.

If you wish more speed while downloading, no one can stop you from buying a pro account on the server where the rom is hosted.

180kb for 1 GB file would take around 2 hours max and even less. Do the math. And you still can download over night. Can't you?

Anyway, if you think downloading this rom is painful to you, let me tell you then it is worth the pain.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] IceTe:
I am sorry for my aggressive tone. It is just that when this topic is brought up the only thing that people do is say "use torrent, it works".

The problem is it DOES NOT for everyone and even if it did I do not see why you would force people to use a specific channel to the content ("force" because <200KB/s is ridicolous in 2013)

I'd rather have a response like "No, we only use depositfiles for this and this reasons..." I am thankful that I got at least an answer from you now that is more understanding and explaining than "change your network".

This brings me to the next point you brought up:

"Omega work is for free. Hosting on servers cost money. "

I do not understand why it costs you money. Do you pay for hosting at DepositFiles?

Without doing research mega.co.nz for example comes to my mind where as I understand it it would be no problem to upload a file this size with - with the same effort and better results.

As an alternative there are other free user friendly hosters like zippyshare where you could just upload the file in parts, which really does not take up so much time and effort as well.

Im sure I would find more good alternatives if I went looking.

Lastly: When you do not want any of the above because of any reasons, why not permit makinging mirrors. I think there will be users that happily provide one or two. You don't even have to put them in the first post and could just let users like me download from those mirrors at their own risk.

Kind Greetings
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] NadMaj:
there are tons of reasons why most devs doesn't allow mirrors.. if you want me to name every single one of them just tell me.. here's some.

and like i said many times we are not lacking in providing links.. 1deposit+1torrent+2direct links for OF Pro users..

and about alternative links indie prefers depositfiles and he's been using it since day one so let's respect his decision to stay with it.. we understand that it's slow to some that's why torrent is there.. and like wesam said you can dl overnight while asleep and prob solved..

seriously. all you gotta do is dl and flash.. how hard is it to do?..

try looking at the devs' pov as well.. and appreciate.

[Galaxy Note II Android Development] wesamothman:
To be safe, nandroid your rom.

Take a backup of efs.

And yes it is safe as log as you use the stock kernel and modem that comes with it. And do not attempt to change the modem.

Sorry but I didn't get what your issue is exactly. .

Are you looking for call button in contact log.?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Shark_1979:
No call button... account symbol (google, whatsapp, skype ecc...) there isn't
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] wesamothman:
For account symbols you need to make sure these accounts are created.

For call button, open omega files app and choose note 2. Choose mods and flash the call button in contact list thru recovery.

Reboot.

You might see no names in contact log. Only numbers. If this is the case, remove your Google account. Reboot. Add it again. Sync contacts. Reboot.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Shark_1979:
For example this is account symbol:

There isn't in omega v17.

stock battery icons?...

there are two ways to get that...

1. flash stock systemui BUT you will lose the ability to use custom batt mods since stock sammy setup only uses 0., 15., 28., 43., 57., 71., 85., and 100 by default for batt increment..

2. i can make you a "stock-like" custom batt mods..
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] saldawop:
A few versions ago, there was an app installed with Omega that let you change to stock battery icons.

Can that app be installed by me? Or is it not compatible with v17?
