From the photos the odd coloring looks like what I first experienced. I now have my color set to 24 bit in the VNC. My graphics are great. Linux on Android was one of the first things i had to test once i got the note ii. Runs really quite well.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vyper91:
So I have a Nexus 7 and an S3, the former becoming recently rather redundant as I got the new iPad (was tired of lack of optimised tablet apps). I still, however, love the form factor when reading and this I do relatively frequently, maybe 3-4 times a week.

The form factor is also useful when I just want to pop out for a bit and feel like taking it with me, whereas the static iPad I tend to keep either at home or take to university with me.

The only issue is due to me using the nexus less, i am less aware of how much charge it holds. And the standby battery is terrible compared to the iPad, which I can honestly say would last about a month if I wasn't using it.

Is there anything I can do to my tablet to maybe tone down the CPU when not in use or maybe disable internet connection when not in use, as I'm sure these two things may be affecting the battery when it shouldn't.

I don't need my tablet to constantly be up to date the second I turn it on I wouldn't mind if it took a minute or so to show me new updates / emails e.t.c.

Thanks!
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 95Z28:
Keep WiFi and sync off. I don't keep WiFi or sync on (my g'nex keeps me up to date) and my standby battery is good. Never left it sitting for a full day but over 12 hours I only lose 2-3%.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vyper91:
used power toggles to turn sync off, but out of curiosity where is the normal menu option for it?

cheers for that, 5% a day is absolutely fine!
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Groid:
They made this one hard to find. Settings > Data usage > Menu options (3 vertical dots in upper right) > Auto-sync data (put check mark). It's really a pain. I use Notification Toggle to have an option to toggle it from my notifications pull-down shade.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cub0ne:
just turn it off if your not using it or set your tablet to sleep mode

I wouldn't be using any of these battery saving apps as most cause more battery drainage than they save.

BetterBatteryStats is the only app you need, free on XDA but support the developer by buying it on Google Play it really is a great app for the small price,and will identify the main battery hogs without using hardly any itself
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] suprtrukr425:
I have searched and tried for a good while now, with no success. I am running CM10 stable, no other mods. I tried everything to get dsp manager to work, but no matter what settings I try it does not affect the sound. I tried to freeze the app, and installed an equalizer from the market. Still nothing, no matter what settings I try it does not affect the sound. In my searching it seems that this doesn't apply to the Apollo player, but that is no good to me as I use Rhapsody for my music needs (I have confirmed this to be true. Both dsp and equalizer work in Apollo, but nowhere else). I know for a fact that dsp manager, and Rhapsody were compatible on CM7 with my old phone, and the equalizer app from the play store worked fine when I had the stock AT&T ROM on my GS3. Is there something I'm missing, or is the equalizer just plain broken in CM10? Is there a fix/mod/workaround for this? Any help is greatly appreciated.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] danielsaenz:
DSP Manager works perfectly on mine and I use Google Music and Spotify. I suggest reflashing the ROM and see if that helps. You don't have to wipe data, just wipe cache and flash CM again. No need for Google Apps either.

Awesome beats and Google music work great together
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] suprtrukr425:
After hours of frustration, searching, trial and error, re-flashing I have come to the conclusion there must be something in the framework that prevents the equalizer from performing system wide. I have tried installing many equalizers, uninstalling dsp/apollo and everything under the sun with no success. I can get them to work in apollo, and I'm pretty sure it will work with Google Music as well from what my searching has come up with, but they just will not work the way they do on the stock rom, and my old phone with cm7.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] danielsaenz:
Can you tell us (and link to) every single ZIP that you have flashed on your device currently? The only thing I can guess is that another mod that you're flashing is overwriting the framework stuff needed for DSP manager to be system wide.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nonmon:
I have looked but can't find an answer. Sorry if this has been posted before.

When re-locking the bootloader on the N7, to send in for repairs, does the bootloader say "relocked" or "locked"? If "relocked" can a stock bootloader be flashed to revert to "locked"? I have an HTC Amaze and flashing a stock bootloader and recovery is the only way for it to say "locked" as to not void the warranty. Thanks in advance for the help.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jkuczy16:
Im pretty sure it would say LOCKED, never tried myself

after you root with what he posted then go to play store and download goomanager.after that open it and click menu button, then click install open recovery script, wait for it to finish then you can reboot to recovery.

Use ExynosAbuse app

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Astom22:
Got a link to that app? I can't find it in the play store.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Urbanisms:
I agree with slicingtaco, find the Exynosabuse.apk from Chainfire here on XDA and install it. You will be able to do this right from your SGN2. After rooting, get goomanager from the play store. open goomanager and in the menu choose 'Install OpenRecoveryScript'. That will download and install TWRP which will overwrite the stock recovery, which, after all of this you can install custom ROMS.

Right after rooting, you may have to get BusyBox Free from the playstore and install busybox.

Good Luck!

It is soooo easy to root...I cannot post the link with the video as this is my first post (although I've been registered since I had an htc 8125 when it came out!) Just switching after having all the iphones, including the 5. The note is so much fun. There is a galaxy note root website that has a guide for mac and the youtube link. Someone should be able to point you to it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Astom22:
I sent him that one yesterday, works great. The whole process sounds much more daunting than it ends up being.

I'm an iPhone user as well. I still have my iPhone 5 sitting in a closet somewhereand I always jailbroke my iPhones. I liked how there was a simple program and with one button click you are done. If you day this is easier them I'll be impressed if it actually is because I'm not sure how it could be simpler.

Use it to root then download goo manager from the play store. Use it to install TWRP *custom recovery* then download clean rom and use the directions scott posted in the op to flash the rom. Simple as that.

Okay. After you rooted what rom did flash to and how did you flash it? Is there a specific program that can be used?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] jyazzie110:
I flashed clean rom 3.5. Instructions are in the op.

1. Reboot into recovery and make a backup of your current rom.

2. Factory reset, wipe system, wipe cache, wipe dalvic cache.

3. Install rom and select what you want installed in aroma.

4 reboot and profit.

Fwiw, you can flash cleanrom over rooted stock without factory reset and wiping data, at least as long as you choose the stock experience from the installer. All your existing apps and data will remain.

Just a custom launcher that allows you to move things around a little more than regular and there are pre made themes for them. An alternative to touchwiz.

While I like some things about it, I miss some of the touchwiz stuff though.
