I understand that it doesn't harm anything to wipe the cache and Dalvik cache, but I'm curious as to whether it is necessary at all in relation to installing a kernel update.

I mean, any additional steps in a process carry an inherent danger of human error, or technical failure. So, if it isn't necessary, and adds no additional value in relation to avoiding potential errors, then the potentially unnecessary step could be adding to the possibility of problems rather than the intended reduction of said possibility.

Just looking for an official word from someone with official knowledge of the pros and cons.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Negan:
Honestly man it doesn't matter if you wipe or not. Doesn't hurt not to and doesn't hurt if you do. However those that do wipe are being extra diligent and truly care about having everything working 100% which is a good thing. You make your own decision if you wanna wait the extra 5 min for your phone to boot. As wiping the dalvik will have your phone reload all apps before boot

Wiping caches on a kernel does nothing and won't effect anything. After some research and learning from some of the top kernel devs in my gnex days (morific, franco, faux) wiping caches when flashing a kernel is pointless, but won't hurt anything I guess you could say. Think about it, why wipe the caches when it's going to rebuild the caches again when you boot up?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] zuckerj:
I, of course, do "Truly care" about having everything working 100%. But if you are telling me that it has no effect in this circumstance, then it doesn't sound like I'm making any sacrifice in that regard, and I hopefully continue to qualify as "Someone who truly cares about everything working 100%" even if I skip these wiping steps when flashing new kernels. ;)

Thank you markbencze, much appreciated!

And thanks to the Dev team here. I have learned a heck of a lot in the short time I've been inundating y'all with my ramblings.

Anyone having a problem seeing the lockscreen background? I can't seem to set it at all with any picture. It just stays with the stock background
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] fullcourtpress9:
I never wipe caches when flashing new kernel, never had a problem
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] zuckerj:
I'll tell you one thing that effects the success of flashing a kernel... Making sure your downloaded file AT LEAST matches the file online in size.

Just tried to flash, and it failed. Thankfully it couldn't even read the zip and all was fine. Rebooted and checked the file and it was 2 MBs short. Doh!

Just finished flashing and all is well. Good luck, and enjoy the Force.

Ok guys I flashed X19 about an week ago and I love it but the question I have is when your on the phone and someone send you

a text message the thing keeps beeping in your ear and the people on the phone can hear it and it continues until you look at the message

is there anyway to change that the original OS use to just vibrate once to let you know you had a message..

New to the Note 2, Tmobile. Flashed this the first day I had the phone, X19. Runs great.

Im having an issue flashing zips from my external SD. I even moved the zip, primarily Samsung Apps zip from the Goodybag. It is giving me an error kn CWM recovery that it cannot be installed. Any ideas? It is a 32gb Samsung class10 external that I brought over from my GS2.

Even when I move the file to my internal, it will not flash correctly.

Thanks in advance.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] psycho4us4:
Ok. Open your dialer, press menu, select call settings, select call alerts, then uncheck alerts on call. That should fix your issue.

Yes

I dont have the capability to search being that I am at work but how do we use the video call feature from the call screen?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Negan:
Use root explorer and extract the script from the rom zip and re run it in script manager. Alternatively search for exfat mem swap. Whatever is easier.

Edit: click this link and run the script for exfat custom kernel. Do it with your finger like this

Does anyone have a voodoo sound.apk that will work on note 2? Says incompatible with device on market. Bofella just isnt as good and the saftey plug option doesnt work I have it unchecked and it still lowers the headset volume when plugging/unplugging headphones.

I guess my question is more towards anyone who has tried it on sprint. Especially with the understanding that I have flashed a number of ROMs that have not explicitly stated they support the T Mobile variant and worked. But yes he did read the op.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] chris.l.naish:
Personally I'm very grateful for the change to Boeffla Sound, it has a noticeably greater S/N ratio than Voodoo Sound that you can actually hear. Bear in mind that Boeffla Sound is a clean rewrite of Voodoo Sound that is specifically made for the Note II (Exynos 4412). I'm not trying to pick a fight with anyone, but if you do an honest evaluation, tonally and EQ-wise, there's no difference. Like many others, I've also yet to experience any issues specifically related to Boeffla Sound. After using other kernels for a while that had it, I was very happy to see SaberKernel now including it. Again, it is not my intent to offend anyone, but IMHO, to go back to Voodoo would be taking a step backwards. Just my two cents.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Negan:
Ok well ptmr3 is terrific at providing us with informative information. So if it's not listed as supported I would not flash it as results may be undesirable. You could end up like this ?

Well given that I have been doing this since the OG Droid (now 12 devices later) I do in fact understand the implied risk of flashing. Thank you for the reminder though. I asked a simple question, that I later clarified was for anyone that may have tried it on a Sprint device. If you cannot answer thanks anyways and thank you for reminding me there is an OP to refer back to. Here is a tip for you, not everyone that asks a question is a clueless idiot. Its more for his peace of mind because I would just flash it. Again thanks.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] BigBake88:
Hey guys, is anyone else have random slow downs and lags with x19 and the last few Saber kernels? It will be running smooth and then all of the sudden I get severe lag and the window animations stutter and it feels like my phone was smothered in molasses lol. Essentially after a little bit it will just snap out of it. Running lulzq and zen 1600/100 and have not touched voltages on my i317.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Negan:
Unbelievable man. I answered quiet clearly and if you choose to ignore my advice that's on you.

Do you think my thanks count got at a decent level by giving bad advice or by being helpful?

Do what you want. I've said all that needs to be said. :banghead::banghead::banghead:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] DCOCH13:
Mine will lag just out of nowhere and then it fixes itself. Haven't experienced it much at all on 45.3. But still has happened. Im running lulz and deadline. 1600/100.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] pcriz:
And you were politely thanked. Also stated I am on a Verizon ROM with no specific support for Tmo, my DD is an ATT Rom and I just came from a International ROM, so if you cannot understand my dismissal of your "advice" then I do not know what to tell you. Essentially your advice is "read the op" been there and done that. I will hold out for someone that may have tried what I am asking.

But hey what do I know, me not running a Tmo ROM currently. Thanks though.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] BigBake88:
Yep, I'm on 45.3 and now it just fixed itself. I figured on 44.6 it was happening because of the GPU scaling but now since it has been fixed in 45.3 I don't know what it is....

The real issue is everybody being so darn sensitive.

The devs here work hard to provide an amazing alternative to us all, for free.

If they feel a particular way about something, then respect their feelings/views, or quite bluntly go elsewhere.

If the devs don't know you and assume you haven't read the OP (which MOST newcomers haven't thoroughly done) respect their position, and their time, and suck it up. Just be polite and ask the question again in a different way.

If your ego can't handle even that, then perhaps you are too fragile to be in a public forum.

That's all I have to say. A small amount of maturity goes a long way.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] rotule:
How do you guys deal with tts, on my side I really need it for the gps lol its way more important to me than flating notifications woch idon't use...

Thanks
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] pcriz:
My problem are the Dev Groopies that leap at every opportunity to "answer" a question only to provide no useful input, but now I have a answer so shut up and move on right? Its like listening, do you listen to understand or do you listen to respond. Most people would benefit by listening to understand.

Its like a recent question I asked in the QA forum about tethering on a particular ROM and I got the response of "its been asked a million times, search it". Well guess what the issue was, a commit in the source was fouling up tethering for only Tmo users, the dev fixed it.. Searching sure did the trick then..
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] zuckerj:
I hear you, but my point is, you aren't doing ANYONE any favors by getting upset and trolling the thread. Just ignore the response, and perhaps ask again with more specifics. The Devs that know what is up will eventually answer your question. But they're just going to be annoyed, along with the rest of us, reading ridiculous back and forth diatribe that contributes absolutely nothing.

The Devs deserve that much respect for what they are providing to us.... Did I mention, for free?

Oh, and when I mention "Devs" I'm referring to EVERYONE that puts in their time to develop, theme, and test. You may term them "groopies" but they are still trying to help. Have a thick skin, it'll pay off in the end.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] zuckerj:
I don't understand the issue here? Are you saying you need TTS to have your Nav app tell you directions? Because, if that is what you are implying, I'm pretty sure that is not the case.

I believe that is just preferences in you nav app.

Perhaps I just don't understand the issue, forgive me if I'm being obtuse.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] rotule:
I was sure that we need tts, but I'll double check!

Edit: just checked and there are no options for this but to mute (and I tried to mute and it did not unmute ...)

Must be tts I think
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] zuckerj:
What Nav app are you using? Google Maps? Waze? Something else?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] rotule:
Google maps, can you try it and see if it works for you?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] zuckerj:
Sorry for this question, but are you sure you have all the volumes turned on and up. I believe Google Maps uses the Media Volume.

Also, you may need to get into the Navigation Mode first, then go to the menu and you should see the option to "Mute Voice Guidance" / "Unmute Voice Guidance".

Good luck! I'm sure this is not a TTS issue.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] rotule:
Thanks but I checked all this and it won't talk lol

Alright, I'll go in q&a
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] GT247:
.GPS & TTS

..I use svox classic for my tts, my phone gives me audible turn by turn directions with google maps in the sweetest most feminine british accented voice one could imagine, she's quite melodic.

I highly recommend giving the trial versiin a go to anyone experiencing issues with the st*ck tts being disfunctional or just plain unfeminine
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] zuckerj:
One last thing before they toss you to the Q & A section. You have to be in the Navigation mode to see the Menu Option for muting and unmuting voice navigation.

What I mean is, Google Maps has to actively be navigating you somewhere in order to see the option in the menu.

Not the best of designs, but it is what it is.

Good luck. This is not a tts issue.

I know for a fact that I have provided positive solutions for a lot of different users out here. Written themes, mods and stay up all night testing the roms and kernels sometimes when I have to work the next day. I do this because I am passionate abiut android and the jedi x rom. Heck i even add a lot if humor in the process to this thread.

How dare you call me out saying I'm just a dev groopie and have the nerve to say I don't provide usefull input. You are out of line. This is a development thread. And for the record my initial reply for you to please read the op was more than sufficient. It clearly states what devices are supported.

Well, when I open any application the phone lags. It's like a long pause before opening. The screen transition lags when swiping, the camera and gallery is the worse.
