[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] DoctorQMM:
I'm not sure about the "pin code for the sim", but when you say "signal out of service" I take it to mean you are not within cell tower reception range and cannot make a call or send a text. If that is what you are referring to, in this condition you should see complete 'greyed-out' signal bars with a red "X" on top of the greyed-out bars (if using my pngs referenced on that thread). If you are seeing full green bars for an out of service range, you may have replaced your no service png file with an active png file. (just a thought.. something to check). For example, the AT&T network uses "tw" prefix files in the SystemUI.apk (/res/drawable-xhdpi folder) for the phone signal strength:

tw_stat_sys_5_level_signal_0.png (this is the no service icon.. with red "X")

tw_stat_sys_5_level_signal_1.png (one bar of signal strength)

tw_stat_sys_5_level_signal_2.png (two bars of signal strength)

tw_stat_sys_5_level_signal_3.png (three bars of signal strength)

tw_stat_sys_5_level_signal_4.png (four bars of signal strength)

tw_stat_sys_5_level_signal_5.png (five bars of signal strength)

You will also see these files.. which I believe are used by non ATT:

stat_sys_signal_0.png (this is the no service icon.. with red "X")

stat_sys_signal_1.png (one bar of signal strength)

stat_sys_signal_2.png (two bars of signal strength)

stat_sys_signal_3.png (two bars of signal strength)

stat_sys_signal_4.png (two bars of signal strength)

You can tell which you are using by looking at your notification bar to see if it's 5 bar max or 4 bar max)

To check to see what pngs have been replaced in your active SystemUI.apk:

1. COPY (i.e., do NOT move) your active SystemUI.apk in /system/app to computer or safe place on phone ext SD

2. EXTRACT the COPIED SystemUI.apk (on phone, you probably have SpeedSoftware folder where extracted folders reside).

3. View contents of /res/drawable-xhdpi folder.. and check those files referenced above. Your "tw_stat_sys_5_level_signal_0.png (for ATT) or stat_sys_signal_0.png (for non ATT) should show no green bars.. but grey bars for no service.

Just make sure you replace the correct png files and the file names have the EXACT same name as the OEM file it is replacing.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] 3to4:
Thank you again. when I turn on the phone, I need to put a pin code to unlock the sim card, and yes, my signal bar is green even when the sim card is still locked and when I cannot make a call or send an SMS. (But, I am within the range and the signal is there. It's simply that the sim card is locked. So, I cannot make a call or send an SMS.)

I extracted the SystemUI, and checked all the files. I can confirm that all the files are correct. That means,

tw_stat_sys_5_level_signal_0.png = grey with red "X"

stat_sys_signal_0.png = grey with red "X"

When I turn on the phone, the signal bar becomes 'Grey with red "X" for a fraction of a second, and it becomes green with 3 or 4 bars whether I unlock the sim or not.

I checked the status, when the sim card is still locked, it says, Network unknown, Signal stength -91dBm 9aso with service state "out of service".

but I have an indicator with green bars.

When the sim card is unlocked, it says, Network "name of carrier", signal strength -95dMb 8aso with service state "in service".

and I have also an indicator with green bars.

So, maybe this is the default behaviour...

PS: By the way, is there a way to display the carrier name to which I am connected in the status bar.

Doesn't anyone read or respect the plan of our favorite dev at all!?

Scott wants to back away a bit and live life a little more. He threw us all a bone by even creating the 5.0 update. Leave the guy be!!

Even if he had plans to dev as before, his roms are all based on Sammy software. 4.3 being released to AOSP means a very small step towards a Sammy 4.3 in a somewhat murky future point.

WTH?! Requests for features....assumptions he has a plan for 4.3...push, push, push...no wonder the guy wants to get away.

Hey all, I've done two fresh installs and I am having a couple of issues that I can't seem to get rid of. First is when signing into Samsung account, when I sync everything up I get "com.sec.android.sCloudSync" has stopped error. I have tried signing into my Samsung account after Play Store Apps auto restore and before and both yield same results. This message will then periodically pop up from time to time - first the phone will come to a crawl, then freeze for a second and then that message pops up. Again, same issue after 2 fresh installs ... anyone else with this?

The second issue is selecting the "edit" option in the notification pull down after taking a screen shot results in a SystemUI crash every time. This may be the very first time I went to use that feature, so not a huge deal for me. Just thought I;d through it out there.

UPDATE:

OK, so I flashed another international ROM to test and I am getting the same "com.sec.android.sCloudSync" stopped error .... guess it's a Samsung thing.

UPDATE 2:

Weird ... restore CleanROM 4.9 backup and no more "com.sec.android.sCloudSync" error ... huh!

Why is phone taking long to charge now...on 5 with saber. I upgraded from 4.9 last night and found charger to be slower than ever
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Gahh Its Lee:
Could be just a wire that isn't working quite right. My OEM wire stopped carrying a full charge after awhile.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] johntortorella:
Mine is just fine, must be something up with yours.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] RDI:
There is an App called ' CurrentWidget: Battery Monitor " that will show how much mA is being used to charge your device. Different wires and chargers make a difference. My best # (for Note 2) is 1800mA. It will not always stay at that #.

Second App is: Galaxy Charging Current Lite/Pro. Very Similar, I have both.

If you updated your maps its already built-in with new new maps feature no more that navigation.

Thanks, I didn't even stop to think about it being integrated together into maps with an update.

I'm used to AOSP, and haven't updated my Maps, until it's inverted, but since this is not my phone, I have been putting this ROM on it. No complaints in a couple of months from a "regular, typical" user, so that obviously means this ROM is top notch.

Props to the Dev

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Craptain Krunch:
I'm with you on that. I've only run Slim on my devices... I honestly want to puke when I see TW, and my S4 sat on a desk in favor of the S3 with Slim until the Loki bootloader workaround was released. I put Slim on her Note2, but the volume was dramatically lower than TW, and she didn't like that... I attribute it to Exynos, and lack of source, so I figured just to save myself the constant back and forth showing her how to use AOSP, and dealing with the questions, I would just put this back on. She is by no means a 'power user' and this ROM suits her perfectly. It just works, and has all the stuff she wants.

First TW ROM I've ever approved of, simply because she really loves it. Once again, great job.

First couple of days, depending on your SD card contents, it will drain faster than usual. But it should go back to normal after few days.

I am having same battery life as usual from all CR rom
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Craptain Krunch:
This ^^^^^^^^^^^

Battery life is about as ambiguous as it gets. Simply saying that you have bad battery life is no way to T/S the issue.

Like he said, you need to give it at least one full charge to settle.

To properly troubleshoot bad battery life you need rule out the fact that you've flashed it recently by giving it a few charges and also install Better Battery Stats.

Try the basic things:

Turn off all Location Services unless you actively need it

Use Auto-Brightness

Remove Facebook in favor of Friendcaster

Limit the number of apps that are actively seeking notifications such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, some games (or at least tweak their Notification settings)

Lower the Min CPU if possible

Experiment with different schedulers and governors

If you still have bad battery life, then post a log from BBS showing usage stats from a 100% charge down to at least 20%

You will be looking for unnecessary wakelocks and whether or not the device Deep Sleeps properly, among other things.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] 2545:
This is true. Give it few days for the rom to stabilize. Or use the DS battery saver. It is by far the best saver and the simplest.

I don't know what it is, but I had little hang ups here and there that didn't sit right with me, not sure if it had to do with the SaberKernel that's inluded with JediXP.

In any event, I'm happier with CleanRom, and even moreso with v5.0. Nice job OP!

The latest is actually 2.6.0.3, and I highly recommend it. I helped bigbiff troubleshoot slow response issues on 2.6.0.1 and he very quickly responded by releasing 2.6.0.3 when we were done. I'm not sure what the cause of the issue was, but he said that it apparently only affected AT&T users. HTH. :)

No, you won't loose anything, you simply won't be able add any more files.

This is the same as if you share a folder with someone who has less space on their account and you fill that shared folder up, they will have access to all the files, but they won't be able add anything.

Have you tried perseus kernel? Not only it allows boost audio, it also has built-in equalizer where "eargasmic" settings (12, 8, 4, 2, 3) is absolutely eargasmic, there is nothing like it (providing you have decent headphones and not stock crap)...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] sshafranko:
I ran perseus for 6 months. You cannot raise in call volume which is the probl everyone is having. You can download a ton of apps from playstore that boost music speaker vollume like pers. But none fore in call volume. The gain config file jas to be modded for that.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] sshafranko:
Incall for the speaker phone, earpiece, headset and you can flash an app such as boefla or voodoo to mess with headphone eq and things like that. It covers everything.

If its not waking up 500 times in a min its probably ok. What app are you using to find it? Can tou post a pick of it? Use Better Battery stats if you can and investigate it a little.
