airdroid

hi,

the good news is that airdroid works for a long time perfectly well on all of my 4 android devices!

since this is not an airdroid thread feel free to PM me so that we can manage to use other means of

communications to solve your problem, this if you like and the problem persists.

also the information provided is a bit sparse, "does not work" is not enought to make a helpful statement :)

i'm on pac 4.3 daily upgraded to latest nightlies if available :) on custom kernels,

but the kernel is irrelevant in this case works on pac stock as well like a charm

Nice to know that I'm not the only one facing this issue, and that it's being worked upon by you. :D

Can you elaborate this adb Method though? I don't know this...

---------- Post added at 04:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:32 PM ----------

Airdroid works fine for me too, it's just that I wanted to know if I was the only one facing the issue.

And I prefer to transfer via wired USB. That's all.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] magnamentis:
then

if that's the only problem i suggest the use of whether :

a) android file transfer

or

b) USB Mass Storage Enabler App

good luck

I did a clean install after a full wipe with the 2809 build, just the rom without Gapps or anything else, and I already have the problem that my homescreen-widgets and all icons disappear when leaving an app, which I started from the app-drawer, with the home-button o.O

No idea why it's obviously only me and two other guys who are having this problem...

more info needed

hi,

this sounds to me like a launcher issue and since you are not the first one posting a similar or same problem it's perhaps worth

to go into it :)

unfortunately i do not remember that one of you mentiones which launcher you are using ?

i suppose you are going with the default launcher which is certainly not the best part of the rom ( nicely said )

the reason might be that the devs are fully aware that most people who are using this and similar custom roms

have long ago changed to a custom launcher, mostly long before rooting and flashing roms for the first time.

so far it makes somehow sense that they do not put too much of an effort into the default launcher.

however this is a personal assumption which might as well be not the case.

now let's get down to your problem:

since the default launcher is not really a hit i would suggest that you choose a good custom launcher.

anyways you miss out a lot if you don't. a good custom launcher does at least as much good to your experience

with your device for daily use than does the rom itself. i got along for a long time with my custom launcher

without a custom rom at all. just began flashing to get all my various devices to the same level and functionality,

so that i did not have to think every time how the various brands specifically work.

i'm using holo-launcher and i'm very happy with it ( perfectly happy indeed )

now since it happens that after such a post everyone with another launcher will try to convince you of his choice,

free after the motto "mine is better haha... ) i can tell you directly that there are quite a few good launchers

in the playstore and after all it's mostly a question of preferences and/or customs. i'm sure that nova launcher for

example is as good as holo but why should i relearn a new launcher when the current one does the job perfectly well for me.

however i think that there is one function i heard which nova launcher has, which has something to do with transparent

notification bar. this holo does not have yet (or i did not find it yet)

so if you want that, try that one, otherwise read a bit and check in the playstore what's around. further i'm sure that

somone will post more information about his launcher and why it's good for him.

i hope that will help you to get the best out of your device and this marvelous rom.

[Galaxy Note II Android Development] FizzyBum:
Nothing to do with launcher, happens with other launchers aswell
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] magnamentis:
sorry to hear that

hi,

that was a possibility, remember the post title:

"more info needed"

so i'm aware of other possible reasons and when saying "sounds like" this does not mean "must be" :)

ok, then from here i can only tell you what i do in such cases where a re-flash etc. does not help.

since the rom works without problems for most, there must be a reason for this

format the system, the cache ( but not the internal sdcard ( mostly sdcard0 )

this means work of course and you should make a backup of your app-data via helium or a similar app before proceeding.

from time to time something just goes wrong in the system ( write errors ) and it's much easier to go

from scratch than to analise and suffer for days to find the culprit only eventually.

only thing which only you can know, is if it is possible that an app causes all this, but it's too much to go through all the possibilities

on this forum, so i recommend, should you want that, that you disable apps in blocks, so to find out if disabling apps would

get you rid of the problem.

of course you have to do it in blocks, starting at 50% of the apps and if problem persists the other 50% of the apps and

if problem goes away after disabling one block continue into smaller blocks until you get down to the one app which causes the hassle.

this is not less work than a re-install from scratch but at least you would know the cause if it's an app.

[Galaxy Note II Android Development] dingokevin:
you have your lock screen sound on right?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] magnamentis:
hi,

which steps do you consider a full ( complete ) wipe ?

did you try to go ( just try ) with the pac-kernel which comes with the rom ?

do all other sounds work as expected ?

perhaps these questions sound stupid but of course there is a reason for this after all

and if you like we can go into it, which means it's important to agree on terms.

the term "full wipe" and "clean install" are not understood the same way by everybody, that's why i ask.

if you do "FORMAT" the system in recovery and all the caches as well not wipe but format and then flash only the rom

and gapps, without any of your other apps and then see if you can make calls properly, this would be a big step forward to find the culprit

by exclusion.

another possibiltiy would be to install another dialer + contacts from playstore, ( again just to see what happens if the above does not work

or before to perhaps safe the time ) you can always uninstall later when the problem has been solved.

after all there is always the possiblility for a hardware issue.

if you like you can PM me so not to fill the thread with back and forth communications, when the problem has been solved it's still possible to post the result :) for other interested members to get the info.

up to you :)

[Galaxy Note II Android Development] magnamentis:
switch them off and ask in the bug tracker

hi,

as for question one i don't know and don't think so but if you want to make a feature request you can do so in the pac-man bug tracker

Link: https://code.google.com/p/pac-man-development/issues/list?cursor=pac-man-development%3A82

as for the statement about lags etc. just switch the animation off until you got the ones you like more and/or until they work

more smoothly, just consider that these are still nightlies and things are going to improve until first stable release.

you find the settings to switch the animations off under: settings > developer options > drawing !

there are 3 items to be set to off there ( or to a smaller value like i.e. 0.5 )

"window animation scale, transition animation scale and animator duration scale

more info needed

hi,

can you tell us which JB version is the base of the omega rom you were using without problems?

i agree with everything primokorn has said also with his assumption that the wifi network might be the culprit.

there were changes in the wifi handling from 4.2 to 4.3 and albeit 4.3 is an improvement, sometimes it happens

that two lower level and/or older devices have less compatibility issues that one simpler or older system with a more sophisticated or newer system.

i would strongly suggest to try with another network (routher) and if the probem does not persist to whether tweak your rooter

or replace it. sounds perhaps a bit straight forward but its the clients who develop faster and make the rules and not the providing devices.

if your router is not perfectly setup for latest technology and/or if it's an older model, you would not choose to remain with

outdated technology just for the routers sake :) wouldn't you.

just imagine, if we would still have unpaved roads and then use a nice sophisticated modern sportscar, no way to go at speed without

damaging the car, or to go very slow which would be waste and a pity :) the solution was to build new roads not leave cars slow and simple.

however, keypoint is to try another router ( network ) to see whether the problems persist or go away and then make your conclusions.

[Galaxy Note II Android Development] NewKindOfWorld:
The thing is that Wi-Fi is greyed out so I assume it has nothing to do with any network, but the Wi-Fi of the phone itself.

Omega is based on two 4.1.2.

I'm glad to learn things and will search to solve my problem with any help, but posts like yours are not so welcomed to me.

I understand everything you state, and I get that my problem is not concerning every user of pacman, that's why I'm trying to find possible solutions here

Could anyone please check something for me? If you go to Manage Apps - > Running Apps, are there some which are constantly restarting?

Last night I wiped system, data, cache and dalvik. I installed the 30/9 nightly and went though the setup process. I even unticked the option to restore my settings from Google.

As soon as the phone booted I checked running apps and a couple were restarting non-stop.

I've had to go to another rom in the meantime, but I'd really like to use pac man if I can find the source of the problem.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Primokorn:
Of course some apps are always in the background but it isn't due to PACman rom and this is how Android works.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] madsponge26:
Then use greenify to hibernate apps and system apps:D
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] magnamentis:
confirmed

hi,

yes i can confirm that 2 or 3 apps are restarting.

interestingly it is so that if i switch off bluetooth this behavior stops. so all the repeatingly restarting apps behave normally ? weird !

consequently i restarted bluetooth and the behavior reamains normal, even after re-connnecting bluetooth to a device the

strange restarting processes did not come back. so i'll keep an eye on it and try to find out what exactly triggers that.

by the way, the restarting apps except 1 of them had nothing to do with bluetooth, even more interesting, let's gather

experience and follow this up. i suggest that as soon as we get an idea about what triggers this behavior we

can file a report on bugtracker.

albeit i'm happy how all my bluetooth devices work, there are still repeatingly posted issues and skype does defintely not

work properly ( or at all ) with various tested bluetooth headsets.

hopw we can hunt it down somehow but since it was not possible to immediately trigger that thing we will have to be

patient and wait until it happens again and remember what tasks were running beforehand.

to primokorn. he didn not complain about running apps in the background but that they constantly restart.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] magnamentis:
follow up

just came to my mind that there is a setting in developer options at the lower end of settings

which is about limiting background processes. by default this is set to stander limit.

i do not know what the standard limit is, but obviously it's not unlimited.

so depending on the number of background processes which somehow corresponds with

the apps showing as restarting, bluetooth, weather, blacklist app etc., it's quite possible

that these are process that were halted to give room for other background processes and

then restart when there therm has again come.

just see if you might agree, that would mean it's not a bug but a totally normal behavior

while the system is managing the hardware resources like battery, ram, cpu usage etc.

regards
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] paulschofield76:
Thanks to everyone for the answers, but yes my problem was to do with a lot of apps restarting.

I won't use greenify because I want to keep the apps running. I only had a couple restarting after a clean install, when all my apps were installed about 15-20 were always restarting.

This causes problems with battery monitoring apps, anything that has an alarm and so on.

I was trying to find out if anyone else had this. I didn't think it would just be me if it happens straight after phone setup straight after a clean install.

Point of interest - I have all my apps installed and I'm using a different rom. The problem isn't happening now but I'd prefer to use pac man.
