[Galaxy Note II Android Development] hihipunkt:
Just wanted to say thanks for this perfect rom. Still some bloat on it, but it's okay considering we have 2GB of ram (what an excellect device btw :D).

Apps I still had to freeze:

AllShare Cast

AllShare Play

AllShare Service

Black Hole

Bubble

Calender Storage (disable Calender sync in sys settings before doin so, otherwise things run out of control)

Calender Widget

CloudAgend

com.sec.android.app.wfdbroker

Deep sea

DirectShareManager

DSMForwarding

DSMForwarding

DSMLawmo

Earth

Face Unlock

Factory Mode

Factory Test

Favorite Apps

Favorite Contacts

Google Partner Setup (this is btw the app that install apps on your phone without asking. E.g. Google Settings in the launcher)

Google Play Magazines

Google Search (android.googleSearch.googleSearchWidget - disabling the other Google search app makes the buttons in the app switcher glitched (but it doesn't break them either))

INDIServiceManager

Luminous Dot

Market Feedback Agent

Music Player

MusicFX

My Files

Phase Beam

PhoneUtil

Photo wall

Picasa Uploader

Ripple wall

S Planner

S Voice

Samsung Account

Samsung Push Service

Search Applications provider (disabling this breaks the app search from the Google Search app)

SecPhone

Service mode

Simple Alarm Clock

SNS

Software Update

Talkback

Topic Wall

Touchwiz Home (thats the launcher, have another one installed!!!)

Try panning

TwDVFSApp

Weather Deamon

Weather Widget

Weather Widget Main

Wi-Fi Direct

Wi-Fi Direct share

Windy weather

WlanTest

wssyncmlnps

For obvious reasons don't disable the ones you still need. In my opinion most of them are quite self-explationary, so you see what you need and what not. Disabling these brings no problems with it. When disabling/removing calender without disabling sync in the system settings of android for your accounts, you'll have some background processes crash constantly. I personally use the web interface of calender when I need it. And I barely need it.

I had one complete freeze/lock up of my Note II one night (thank got I didn't have to stay up, I use my phones to wake me up), but I repaired permissions and since then this never happened again. It was about a week ago, so the freeze just really was my permissions not set right and not the apps being frozen.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] drdoulittle:
@

I have no Problems with the System/apps and the data/apps and the permissions is ever rw-r-r.

I have flashed the Sotmax with Sotmax Apps intern/extern and simplistic and the Rom run and run an no error or frezze.

My Sync is 100% and no problems with Account, Upload, Download, Wifi, NFC, Data, Signal, Bluetooth or other's.

Never a crash of the apps found out you are wrong.

But I also do not use all the apps listed here, and so I always speak of external installation and not from the Sotmax Rom.

My Note's 2 with the Sotmax Rom MC3 is little different with Kernel / Thor and Redpill and have no Problem with Thor or Redpill in Sync or others.

My Favorit ist Sotmax Rom and this is the Stable Rom from all others here. ;)
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] sotmax:
Lol...you make it lite ;)

Just be aware that some apps are needed from system for some processes so keep that in mind.

For example all share cast apps are needed for wifi direct etc.

Also samsung cloud options are really helpfull especially if you co operate them with google sync.

For ex you can sync sms and call history in samsung while you can sync contacts,apps,settings etc with google.

That way you can perform a hard reset to your device and bring everything back including apps automatically except game progress etc).

For me is really very usefull as i had avoid titanium backup or any kind of backup in past by doing that ;)

Hi Sotmax China has new FW MD3 and I think in the next Days comes FW for other Country...

And the Redpill Kernel 1.47 run very nice, and Akku perfect.

[Galaxy Note II Android Development] sotmax:
Md3 downloaded already and new playstore is in black inside ;)
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] drdoulittle:
:good:

So what you will do to deodex MD3 and make us a new wonderful Rom?

Sotmax your XXDMC3 running and running, so here you have really done a great Rom.

And if you posted so much new what was doing in the MD3, then the absloute Burner is.

Your Rom is unbeatable your class!:good:

blackDropbox is not good. In the Keybord is little Mistake with Color ( Black on Black) and you see not the Number. :) delete!

Which version of philz are you using there seems to be issues with the latest and auora try philz 5.1.5
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] tsk1979:
Yes latest I believe. Can I flash 5.1.5 using latest
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] tsk1979:
Okay

I flashed the ROM

So far so good.

Hopefully it will fix my Deep sleep problem without the use of custom kernels.

My older dr. Ketan rom needed to have AGNI kernel only then it started going into deep sleep

I hate that powermanagerservice,wakelocks always waking up my phone!

With this ROM almost stock, phone should be fine.

Otherwise, I guess, its custom kernel time.

[Galaxy Note II Android Development] dominik146:
I repeat my question:

Is there a option to make the weather widget not transparent? Maby a mod or something?

Somebody know that??
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] steven8590:
I am not sure whether I am correct but if I am not mistaken you could choose that during the installation. If that's the case you can reinstall the ROM with that option selected (if I am not mistaken it is called stock). Or else you might find something on XDA. Sorry but I do not have one since I do not use it.

hey there my blessed note ii owners . there is a new 4.3 build from europe mk9.and from what im hearing its better than every mk4. god bless you all. hope we some new custom roms yo hah
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] dominik146:
Is there no other way to make the weather widget not transparent? Maby is there a Mod for this? When i reinstall the rom must i do wipe?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] steven8590:
Most probably there is some kind of mod you can flash but it is the same or similar process as if you flash the ROM from the beginning. You do not need to do a wipe just install and choose the same options as you chose the first time except for the weather widget. You will not lose any data or applications if you do not do any wipe.

I found this one but I do not know whether it is the original one. You can try it out, just do a nandroid backup just in case :)

[Galaxy Note II Android Development] tsk1979:
I am able to install this now with philz 5.1.5

Thanks for the tips.

However, I have run into the battery problem.

Phone is going to deep sleep, but for a very short time.

If I look at CPU spy after a night of rest (no wifi, no data) it shows only 10-15% time in deep sleep.

Better battery stats also does not help much here. Only wakelock I see is battery-monitor wakelock which is BBS itself.

Any tips or suggestions?

I have a big problem with this rom.

My autorotation is not working in Videos, Internet, Pictures.

It works normally in Camera, so i think it is the software problem.

The gyroscope calibration work not. When i will make the gyroscope calibration i see "calibration failed, try again". And when i make a test in *#0*# the gyroscope test is OK.

I made a full wipe and i flashed the rom a couple of times but it works not.

Can i go back to the stock 4.1.2 rom from this rom??

Missing 4 Way Reboot Menu

My 4 Way Reboot Menu is missing, when i press on the PWR button the unit goes straight into a full re-boot. Marking this menu in Wanam Exposed doesn't help.

Please help as the only way for me to get into Recovery is by manually pressing the Vol UP + Home + Power after turning off the unit by taking out the battery.

Would appreciate your help of how to restore the 4 way reboot menu.

Best ROM Ever

Hi .. first of all congrats and thank you for this wonderful ROM.

After a pair of days of use (V14) I found that it's the best Rom with Android 4.3 for my N7100 so far. No random reboots, no fc, no deep sleeps (issues that I often had with other 4.3 roms).

I have only some problem to solve, and after that, it is really

perfect

:

1) [Minor problem] Words suggestions over the android keyboard are too small to read (I'm getting older, so I've some problem to read them :cyclops:) Also phone's icons near contacts in contacts list are too small than the others.. Maybe it could depend by one of my weird choice from aroma during installation? Suggestions?

2) [Major problem] ExtSDCard (a 32Gb microsd that worked fine with 4.1.2 and/or other roms)

seems to be in a read-only state

! I've tried several times to mount /storage/extSdCard in RW with Root Explorer, but with no luck. Every time I try to create a new folder (or let the Camera write pictures on SD) i get an "action failed" and extSdCard turns back in RO ... Any suggestions? Have I to try to reformat it from phone?

3) [Almost a question... ] Every time I boot up the phone, before entering the pincode of my SIM, I see the msgbox saying "Upgrading android.. " such as when I move an apk under /system/apps and reboot the device the first time hereafter. But it happens every time I switch on the phone.

I thanks in advance all for any suggestions. ;)

Gabo

EDIT:

Point 2, is not more a problem. My SDCard was corrupted. I changed with a 64Gb SDXC and now works ok!

Point 3. The msg is not "Upgrading android.. ", but "Starting Applications.. " actually.

Small fonts problems in keyboard suggestion/auto-completion is still there instead.

Can I mount old S-Note app? old gestures? other screen in TW when S-pen extracted?

Hi there,

I have other 3 questions. Thanks everybody in advance for any suggestions.

1) I find that Note3 app and funcionalties porting in this rom is quite great!

Even new S Note is much better, smoother and cooler than the old one (expecially for new save format).

However, I find old S Note app

to be better for some productivity drawing

(For example, to draw a sort of flow chart, thanks to "Shape match" function, I like best the old way).

Is there a way to install the old S-Note also? (I tried to restore from an old TB backup, but app gets FC as soon as launched).

2) Other question.. gestures. In old rom I found useful the gesture of S-pen from bottom to top with button pressed, to raise up the quick command panel, or to draw a "minor sign" in order to get back (like pressing the back button). Is there a way to restore this functions?

3) In older roms,

when I extracted the S-Pen

or

when I connected headphones, new panels appeared in my TW launcher screen (according to these events)

, that I could custom with widgets or shortlinks (e.g. when I connected headphones, radio app, google play music widget. When I extracted S pen, S Note widget, skitch apps, etc... ). Is there a way to keep on this behaviour on this Rom.

Tnx in advance for any suggestions

I can answer the number 3: You have to enable page buddy and you will have those functions as soon as you connect the headphones etc
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] gabolander:
Hi Steven, thanks for your quick reply.

Unfortunately i couldn't solve.

First of all, there's no "Page buddy" entry present in Display's settings of Android 4.3. It seems to be an hidden function.

However, I could launch the Page buddy setting by the App "Activity Launcher" (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.szalkowski.activitylauncher), but all option was all enabled (Page buddy main option and all the subentries. S Pen page, Earphones page, Docking, etc..). I tried anyway to disable and enable back all options. But when I try to pull out S pen, or connect earphones, I have the notification on status bar, but no page.

Thanks anyway for your help.

G.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] steven8590:
Sorry mate, but I do not use the default launcher and you are write that the page does not come up like in older versions. For SPen gestures you can use Gmd SPen control https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gmd.spencontrol. You can customise everything what your SPen can do and you can create customised gestures. I know that you were talking about something which was stock but I never used gestures so with stock I cannot help you. I used this application when I used to flash aosp roms and it works beautifully
