[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] jee'sgalaxy:
i made my point. he was on Scott's ROM with STOCK KERNEL. you had two options of kernel to choose from in his aroma installation: peresus and stock. people who installed stock kernel w/ Scott's ROM in the aroma installation and went to AOSP experienced sensor failure, people who installed peresus kernel w/ Scott's from in the aroma installation and went to AOSP experienced no sensor failure. if my old high school education of proofs was right, lets see....

Therefore, i see it as kernel issue, not Scott's ROM issue...

you try the installation yourself again please. during the aroma installation, use the stock kernel to install and then flash AOSP. after wipe,, and during the aroma installation, install peresus kernel and then flash AOSP. then tell me what happened.. oh course i am not responsible for anything that goes wrong with your phone.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] seh6183:
I tried it and you are correct. It still doesn't make sense however. Nothing should be able to overcome a nandroid backup. After flashing his rom with the stock kernel, all sensors work, even if going back to touch wiz. They are only broken for aosp. If it was the touch wiz kernel that was the problem then how come no one has the problem coming straight to aosp from touch wiz? Anything that goes wrong should be immediately reversed by restoring a nandroid. Nothing should overcome that. And like I've said this is the second time in two different scenarios that's it's happened to me with one of scotts roms.

Scotts roms are nice and well built, I would just love it if this problem were to be resolved because I'm terrified of flashing his stuff. I've never seen any problem persist through a nandroid.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] jeck77:
Yes, I followed the instructions and got my sensors (proximity, rotation, etc.) working on JellyBeer, but Bluetooth is still an issue (as with all AOSP Roms to my understanding). So because Bluetooth is still important, I flashed a Notetorious, but it made me lose LTE, so I had to restore back to stock until I have time to research why I lost LTE.

Also there's is an argument going on in this thread, I want to reiterate, I flashed from stock to JellyBeer (AOSP), and my sensors and Bluetooth were immediately messed up. I did not touch the kernel on my first flash.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] seh6183:
Very interesting, this was not my experience.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] id10terrordfw:
I've never flashed CleanROM or any of Scott's Note II ROM's and I had the non-working sensor issue. Flashing Perseus then using the button press and flashing the stock 12-26 madmack AOSP kernel did get them all working again. Rotation, Proximity, and Ambient Light. How bizarre.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Gillion:
If you flash a kernel that has the Sensor Hub firmware active ... it will flash that sensor hub firmware on first boot via the I2C bus.

If you flash a kernel that does not have sensor hub firmware active it will continue to use the old firmware left behind by the previous kernel. However, if the kernel is unable to use the previous sensor hub firmware left behind by the previous kernel, then you will have issues.

The Note 2 uses a new microcontroller for the sensors so that the CPU doesn't have to do the work... and that controller has the firmware.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] jee'sgalaxy:
mmmmmmm... another case of being lazy on my part. it does wonders to read all that stuff on that OP. i had a good habit, but i've been feeling lazy lately. thanks for the info Gillion.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Smittyzz:
So in theory my fix and the ops fix are the only fixes?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] :
Either way, I'd love to see a definitive solution. Mine have been broke for a week now and I don't want to hard brick my only phone.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] ManelScout4Life:
These instructions will not brick your phone. They will fix your sensors
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] :
I've tried post 1, 3, and 9. No sensors.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] jee'sgalaxy:
First would you mind telling step by step of what you did (for 1st post) ? Don't leave anything out. Some people don't follow through with the instructions. I want to know what rom, kernel version, what order, custom recovey you used, etc.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] donharden2002:
I get a black screen like a second after hitting the reboot button, is that when I do the battery pull?

[Asus Transformer TF700] lucius.zen:
Just finished stressing the machine quite hard, everything is stable so far, temperature hasnt gone up at all either

Just thought id mention.....

GOT A SCORE OF 7524 IN QUADRANT.....BEAST MOOOOOODE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

MUUUAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAH! I VILL TAKE OVER ZE VOOOOOORLD
[Asus Transformer TF700] xFrozen:
LOL okay let's see how much this drains on your battery!

Preferably show battery screenshots instead of just words :)
[Asus Transformer TF700] lucius.zen:
Good call, I forgot that most ppl would be interested in the battery drain.

I was fully charged before flashing new kernel, I have used for over 4 hrs, been doing heavy browsing, stress tests, and benchmark tests....all in performance mode.....im at 67% dock, 76% tablet...I keep screen brightness around 20%-25%. Havent noticed any more drain than usual.

Ran a benchmark test in balanced mode and got the same results as I used to get with 1.5-1.8 Ghz/700 GPU kernel....if you are worried about stressing your system leave it in balanced and switch to performance mode when needed.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Thats OK:
Troo that overclock to 1.9 is a battery killer.

Have to say I didn't stay on it very long :(
[Asus Transformer TF700] lucius.zen:
That sucks I havent seen much of a battery hit at all. For the past 2 hrs ive left it in balanced mode and there is no diff b/w 1.5-1.8 kernel at 1450mV. I didnt use the 1400 mV kernel for very long bc i didnt notice any battery improvement, maybe the 1400 mV kernel is much better, are you using 1400 mV kernel?

Ive been using my tab for 5 hrs in performance and 2 hrs in balanced and im still at 33% dock and 87% tablet. Thats essentially the same as it used to be, should get at least get a full day of heavy use, especially considering I have been running stress tests, benchmarks, and repeated cold boots to make sure its up to snuff.

The screen and wifi are the biggest battery consumers, overclocking from 1.5-1.8 to 1.9 shouldnt hit battery too much.
[Asus Transformer TF700] killerdan56:
maybe

maybe the 1.9 isnt kicking in, maybe try playing some shadowgun or something to see ur battery time,
[Asus Transformer TF700] lucius.zen:
I dont have any games. Games are cool, I just dont play them, and will never put a game on my tablet lol. I really cant say how battery would be affected by this kernel when gaming.

You might be wondering why I even bother with this kernel if I do not game. Well, my good sir, I happen to be a performance junkie, and cant stand lag of any sort lol. Multitasking is what i focus on, this tab has replaced all my other devices, and am happy to say my workflow is smoother and faster.
[Asus Transformer TF700] mj23kb24:
From my personal use I think the kernal rocks! I have used it before and just went to it again recently. The only reason I switched was because the Rom I used didnt have the option to install that Kernal and I was too lazy to flash it again. On a regular everyday use I keep it in balanced mode and really dont see a hit in battery. I personally only saw a little bit of battery drain in gaming however in the graphic and CPU heavy games there was battery drain anyways. I can deal with plugging it in more to get more performance out of my tab. I am one of those people that has 5 home screens, ones dedicated to all of my games and its fully filled with 6 different folders each containing atleast 10 more games. This would definitely slow down my tablet however with this Kernal its different. I also get around the same results in quadrant 7436 to be exact.I do see a temp increase but its not too large so I can deal with it.

Over all I think its the best Kernal out right now hands down.
[Asus Transformer TF700] jtrosky:
Just curious - why do you even power-off your device to begin with? Normally, "mobile devices" are meant to be on always-on anyway, so I just don't see why the cold-boot time is such a big deal. The device goes into a deep-sleep state when in standby with very little power drain, which pretty much eliminates the need to constantly power off and back on the begin with.

Do you really completely power-off your device on a regular basis?

Again, just curious - obviously, that's completely up to you...

Personally, I only reboot my TF700 when flashing kernels and/or ROM's - otherwise it's always on. That way you never have to wait for it to boot! :)
[Asus Transformer TF700] buhohitr:
I don't think the boot time has nothing to do with 1.8 or 1.9 kernel, my cold boot is about 22 sec. They should be about the same depended on how many app services you have running on your device.
[Asus Transformer TF700] lucius.zen:
I cold boot all the friggin time lol just my personal preference. It feels snappier after cold boot and I am constantly deleting stuff and trying new things/setups/setting configurations to eek out more performance, after each change I cold boot to get an accurate assessment of the changes that I have made. Lately ive been spending several hours a day trying to improve tab, which has meant a lot of cold boots. For the past few weeks ive spent more time optimizing and assessing this tab than acually using it, kind of nuts, i know lol, but i really enjot it and im off school right now and my hometown is in the middle of nowhere, less than 100 ppl live in my town lol. I normally shut down before bed, and do another cold boot after I finish classes around 7, boot time matters to me.

Oh and I will not charge this thing if it is on, I figure that draining the battery (no matter how little) while charging cant be good for its life long term.
[Asus Transformer TF700] lucius.zen:
I honestly dont know if it should or shouldnt, all i know is that i was booting in about 40s-45s before flashing 1.9 kernel, now i boot in 30s, Ive seen results by doing this. I time my boot times with stopwatch on my phone, i monitor everything going on in this tablet very heavily. Every time i change anything i like to be able to assess its overall impact on performance.

[HTC Pico (Explorer)] Parth_14:
Try cm9.1 build11 !!!

Most stable i think :rolleyes:
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] thewisenerd:
What about MIUI?

If you prefer, you can use the MIUI rom with great interface, all basic features working. Build #5 by rohanchrome is great. It is overclocked at 800 mhz, so gaming is great too.
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] redguardsoldier:
MiniCM9 Build#3. Extremely stable and battery friendly.
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] vishuhtc:
use Nextgen u can play all gameloft games on it

backlog is that it is based on gingerbread

but u can play avatar and assasin creed hd on it where as they wont work on Cm9 Cm10 MIUI Sense Based Roms (andriod 4 & above)
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] Araib93:
European Stock Rom is the best in terms of battery and stability as compared to any CM Rom. It's video recording is also nice. If you are looking for eye candy go with MIUI Roms but I've tried them n got fed up (Slow lockscreen, crashes, no app drawer kinda makes it an iPhone :P) but European Stock is the best out there.
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] Neel.Aryan:
Yo !! Take this... CM 9.1 Nightly Build 11 - ICS by ayushrox.

It is by far high rated rom for HTC Explorer, because it has all things working with high stability.

Also, it is based on ICS and has the hardware acceleration.

So, it is pretty smooth. I use it.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] gmac1990:
Originally it appeared that I was only having problems with data on certain ROMs but now I'm seeing that its across the board. When I first got the phone and was running ROMs I had great speeds but after flashing a certain ROM my speeds went to hell. Now no matter which ROM I am on my data speeds are awful. Checked apns, tried modems and just recently went all the way back to stock and started from scratch.

Any help would be much appreciated.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] thacounty:
It's the network.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] gmac1990:
What do you mean?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] thacounty:
The network is probably causing the issue.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] gmac1990:
So its on att's side of things and not mine?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] thacounty:
If it is all roms and stock with multiple modems it is probably ATT. Unless you lost your IMEI. Menu - Settings - About phone - Status - IMEI (if this says 0 you lost it) But if you have any thing besides edge that probably isn't it.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] gmac1990:
Not that it matters to much but it turns out I went over my data cap (on an unlimited plan they cap at 5gb) so I have been throttled back. ......annoying.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] thacounty:
Ask ATT to switch your phone to another IMEI then call and switch it back. Make sure they keep unlimited on your plan, but going from phone to phone usually releases the cap.

[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] crk1995:
Move the data manually to the external sd to the same folder name as it is intended to be in the sdcard.

Then go to directory bind app.

Press menu softkey of ur phone.

Then create new directory.

In the first text area type the directory of the folder where the data is

And in second text field type the directory of the folder wherevit should actually be.

Click on add. (dont select the option to moge the data as u have done that manually.)

Then click on the floppy sign on the extreme left of the newly created directory. This will finally bind the memory.

WOW you are the best thanks!!!

[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] crk1995:
I never faced that issue...

Maybe your data has some trouble.

You may even try by reinstalling the game.

Note: if you are uninstalling a game and u don't want to remove its linked data then rename that folder just before uninstalling.

After reinstalling put the correct name of the folder..

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] tkoreaper:
I was on CM10.1 and I wiped data/cache and installed CM10. I was in a roaming area at the time and when my phone booted my phone told me that it needed to be activated? It would not work since there was no data. So I Odin'd the latest stock ROM and activated it when I got home however it is stuck on verizon for some unknown reason. The PRL is 0 and I tried manually putting a sprint PRL on the phone using DFS, but it never sticks. Can someone help me please?

Someone mentioned that putting it in airplane mode and then turning off airplane mode helped them get off verizon, however this was only when they had used a PRL that gave them verizon roaming so it may/may not work for you

Were you using a PRL that gave you verizon roaming while in that "roaming area" you mentioned?

Found the answer. Downloaded the correct ver of gapps here: http://goo.im/gapps/gapps-jb-20121011-signed.zip

Hello,

I've got CM10 running off a 32gb card on a Nook HD+ (Thank you all for that!) but I can't get the Play store installed.

I tried adb pushing gapps-ics.zip and installing the zip from the CMW recovery menu but it aborts almost immediately. I tried re downloading it and re installing it, same problem, aborts.

I tried using the file NookHDplus-Gapps+Extras.zip from this post: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2063230&highlight=gapps+hd+extras and I was able to install it from CWM but when I rebooted, it didn't show up in CM10.

I tried downloading the APK I found somewhere, that installed it but when I ran it, the screen would blink and no response. I then uninstalled it.

I tried booting into recovery, deleting the data, cache and installing NookHDplus-Gapps+Extras.zip then deleting data, cache and dalvik and rebooting, and it didn't show up.

What am I doing wrong?

Also, when in CM10 I browsed to the Play website and after signing in it wouldn't let me install because it sees my device already from having the Play store from running it on the same Nook HD+ just rooted with the Play store before I did CM10 on SD.

Thanks!
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leapinlar:
That gapps + extras is for stock, not CM10 on SD (I guess I had better rename it so every one knows it is for stock.) You need to get the gapps jb dated 20121011 at goo.im.

[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FilthyHarry:

Hey guys,

After being an avid iphone user during the past 4 years, I'm finally making the plunge into the android world today.

I've been eyeing the note 2 for quite a while as I've had people who've used note 1 and loved it.

I was wondering if any of you guys can help me with the transition?

I've already moved all my contacts and calendar to gmail.

Anything else I can do to get things ready for the transition? Also any apps/widgets you can recommend that go GREAT with the note 2?

I want to dive RIGHT in, but without much prior experience in android phones I feel that I may get lost... and would LOVE some direction. Thanks!

Welcome to Android!

Android and Apple are very different animals!

You will find customizing, syncing, transferring and saving everything much easier. I recommend checking out the Note 2 screenshots and homescreen threads for widget ideas. Many people post their current setup and will gladly share.

The sheer amount of available customization and capability may seem overwhelming ( especially coming from the Apple ecosystem ;) !) Spend plenty of time in your phone. Do not be afraid to explore. And remember: Always backup your phone before taking any plunge! It is so easy to backup your phone and restore it if something borks. The beauty of Android!

Soon you will be the one helping out the next New-To-Android guy!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] flaring afro:
Apps I'd recommend:

Adblock Plus - prevents loading of ads on wifi. if you root, it will work over 3G/4G too

Chrome

Contact-sync - syncs your facebook friends statuses and profile pics. the official facebook app syncs horribly small pics that look very blurry when you get a call

Disable Increasing Ring - the ring on the note 2 is very quiet for the first second and then jumps to whatever volume you have set. this disables that.

Drive - to take notes on and automatically have anywhere.

Dropbox - picture backup

Equalizer - equalizer for music that works over bluetooth. if you don't use bluetooth for music, the one that comes with the phone probably is fine.

Flashlight - uses camera LED, don't bother with ones that use a white screen

Gameboid - if you liked Game Boy Advance games

Grand Theft Auto

HD Widgets - many different home screen clocks and weather widgets to choose from and customize. it also allows you to get to your alarms, timer, calendar, etc from touching parts of the widget.

Minecraft

N64oid - N64 emulator

Swiftkey 3 - much better keyboard than stock imo - especially in landscape. all the buttons are bigger, it has smiley shortcuts, and you can change the time for long presses
