[Galaxy Note II Android Development] haybill:
My problem is that, every time I install a live wallpaper--usually on both Home and Lock screens--shortly afterwards my phone freezes completely and nothing less than a Nandroid Restore will fix the problem--if I try to get into Settings to disable, or change/remove the Live Wallpapers it just won't let me because everything freezes up--I have seen a fix for this in Goldieking's Alliance ROM for S2--is there a fix for it with N7100.

Or,is the problem happening because I am trying to set up Live wallpapers in Settings/Display/Wallpaper--and, maybe, I should be using the App included with the ROM called 'Lockscreen'--is this likely to be the issue??

Thanks for any help.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Magnumutz:
I understand, this version is stable.

Alright, it makes sense :)
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] ampelift:
Hey guys great effort and a great rom overall...I would like to propose for next update that there is an option to change lock sound and boot sound!!
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] sparx:
This is being fixed in next update....it happens when you have hide tw wall paper selected in custom settings. This option will be removed...
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] hooliganx:
man... first look...

only audio out is consuming a lot! or do much connection (which still does not would drain your battery much) or any audio program can be constantly "on". :eek:

Alliance is a Revolution of Evolution. If you have Alliance, you have all!
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] haybill:
Thanks for the reply--but, in my case 'Hide TW Wallpaper' is not activated--i.e tickbox is empty.

So, I am still not sure.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] mata26m:
Are you disabled Ripple effect in lockscreen options? If not, do it!
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] haybill:
No, on my device Ripple effect on Lock screen was active-could this be the problem. I have UN checked the Ripple Effect, I will try to use Live Wallpaper and report back.

OK, having Un-hecked Ripple Effect--tried to use Live Wallpapers on Lock screen and Home screen--bang-- device freezes and unresponsive again--no way to uninstall Wallpapers as cannot access Settings, or any other App that allows to access settings--only option is to re-install my last Nandroid--seems, as was stated earlier--this is a problem which the Devs will sort with a future update--I shall give up on the idea until then.

Thanks, anyway.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] haybill:
The instructions are that you should use ROM Customized. That's the best way to get all the installation options.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] J_Kirk:
Hmm.. so ROM Customized and Philz Touch Recovery can co-exist?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Goldie:
Rom customizer is an app. Not a recovery
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Magnumutz:
The only thing that I don't like about this ROM is that there are too many Flip Fonts that I've had to uninstall with Titanium Backup :P

Other than that, it's pretty damn awesome!
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Goldie:
Could you not have unchecked fonts on install then?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Magnumutz:
Donno, I just flashed the zip. Didn't encounter any AROMA installer...
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Goldie:
Then next time read the guide before picking fault. Cos if you read it you would have excluded them ;)
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Magnumutz:
Ok, that was my fault.

I think I'm gonna flash the ROM again... just to make sure I'm not missing out on anything.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] haybill:
Use Rom Customizer--it gives all the options in a drop down menu.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] fenchai:
Does this rom has the lg lockscreen? Is it perfectly stable?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] xartic12:
Is any rom perfectly stable? It has proven to be far more stable than Samsung's touchwiz, with having far fewer to no force closes.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] sparx:
It does, it is and background/clock change color too :)
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] fenchai:
Amazinggg...!! Imma try this rom now :thumbup:
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] sparx:

[Galaxy Note II Android Development] comnam90:

[Galaxy Note II Android Development] sparx:

[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Stempanssi:
How would you compare this rom to stock. Is there any noticeable battery life improvements and how is the speed of this rom?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Goldie:
The battery is terrible and its slow....no the battery is awesome and its fast...come on man...you know questions like this are pointless :rolleyes:
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Stempanssi:
Haha got scared when reading the first sentence xd. But just wondering as my battery doesn't even last a day with stock now. Dunno if it is a app or something but my phone has only been 3hours in deep sleep of the 8 hours it has been on...

[Galaxy Note II Android Development] haybill:
One minor annoyance is that--when I open an app and get into the settings often the text is 'whited out' leaving only the 'tick boxes' visible--this seems to happen when the default background for the app settings screen is white--and I have no problem when default backgrounds are black--text is obviously white on a white background and almost impossible to see.

It must be a configuration issue but not sure where to look.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] juanq214:
Noob question here : i downloaded an updatetable zip file in the ota link, now should i flash it by recovery or what?

Any help would be appreciated

Enviado desde mi GT-N7100 usando Tapatalk 2
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] xdashao:
thru rom customizer. after download dont leave rom customizer, theres an arrow on the upper right side. you press that and it will install the downloaded zip.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] haybill:
Another option is to Open Rom Customizer and choose 'Flash from Internal sd card'-- [ or External]if that is where your Alliance OTA downloads folder is.

Rom Customizer asks for file to Flash--choose the Update Zip file and Rom Customizer will ask 'Do you want to Flash file' then Reboot To Recovery and it flashes in Recovery--then Reboots.

Finish.

Haybill, have you read through the forum? This has already been asked and answered.

[Galaxy Note II Android Development] haybill:
Thanks for the info---I have actually read through the whole thread but I started at the first page quite some time ago and many posts have got lost in the mists of time--I'm getting old!!

I will follow your link, and thanks again.

Aha--read it now--however, I have not, knowingly, changed my system fonts/colours--I am using stock as supplied with ROM, and, I have not changed the themes, background colours, or text colours--so, I am still not sure.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] InTents:
The Stock colour is white.

Try changing it to Blue and see how things look.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] haybill:
Strange things happen when I try to change Colour of Text--every time, and I have tried several times, all the icons in Settings change [ maybe to AOSP, not sure] and all, I mean all, text disappears, in Settings and in Apps settings menus also--nothing I try, like changing theme colours,background colours or text clours bring these items back--weird-so, I always end up having to restore my latest Nandroid, so I am giving up messing with colours.

Thanks,

maybe I will try a ROM Nuke and re-install one day.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] InTents:
Silly question, but after you changed the colour, you did restart the UI at the bottom right?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Goldie:
He probably made the text transparent. Just uncheck alpha!!
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] abcdef121448:

[Galaxy Note II Android Development] haybill:
I pressed Restart TW Launcher, on the options page--are you saying that I should have clicked out of that page and clicked Restartv System UI--if so, that is why I screwing up, I guess??

---------- Post added at 06:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:32 PM ----------

This I haven't tried--wasn't aware that I ever 'enabled' alpha--but, it sure is enabled in the colour options--I didn't enable that tick box, though.

I am going to do, yet another Nandroid bckup, and then--Uncheck alpha--sounds like a good plan.

Thanks to both of you for your help.

Finally--it was definitely the 'alpha' setting--this turns on automatically every time you alter the colours--and, I presume needs to be manually 'de-activated' if not required, anyhow, now I have the ability to actually read all context menus in all apps--something that had been lacking for some time--big thanks to the 'All-Knowing' Goldie [ as usual] and thanks to' Intents' for trying to help an idiot.

Sorry for being so dumb--but, we don't all know everything.

Plus--click Restart System UI, as well--to make the changes--duhh!!

Hi,

v3.5 is considered an update or a fresh ROM it self? Cuz I m too lazy to flash 3.0 and then redo it for 3.5 again. =D

oh ok. one last question what if i flash another TW rom that i have. like phoenix or android revolution.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Weetbix:
You don't technically have too, as flashing the zip from your recovery does work. However you do not get the options you get if you follow the instructions as given by the devs. It installs EVERYTHING by default.

What I do when doing a fresh install after trying an aosp rom is listed below. It works for me without issue, but the entire process is not supported by the devs (i don't think).

1. Put the zip on my external sd card

2. Backup anything I want to keep from my internal sd card

3. Reboot to recovery (I use the latest twrp)

4. Factory reset,format internal data etc (basically wipe everything,I can't remember the exact options right now)

5. Install the zip from where I put it in step one

6. Boot into the room

7. At this point I have a fully functioning TW rom which can be used to follow the instructions

8. Start up rom customizer and install the rom as recommended, complete with options to ignore Samsung stuff and extra fonts

Hasn't failed me yet - your mileage may vary depending on the angle you hold your tongue :p
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] ushkakaka:
hey,

there is no v3.5 yet. but i know it is coming out soon (no complains at all)

i m stll currently using v1.0 (yup, it was so great that i nvr bother to update for quite sometime. hehe)

i was asking becuz i just wana know should i wait or flash v3.0 right now, depending if i can just upgrade v3.0 to 3.5 easily without restart all over (apply it as update via ROM customizer 3.0 to 3.5)

sry if i confused you mate
