I'm gonna check that out this very instant.

---------- Post added 15th August 2013 at 12:47 AM ---------- Previous post was 14th August 2013 at 11:57 PM ----------

Strange. I didn't have to do that. Typically my "Network Mode" is set to only use HSPA+, where I elect to disable LTE. But I can flip on hotspot with either of those two Network Modes and still be able to have other devices successfully tether off of my phone and visit webpages. I've done absolutely no changes to tethering nor APN's since flashing Tweaked 2.4.1.

I've attached a screeny of my lady's unrooted Note 2 tethering off of my phone where I did a speed test on her phone after I visited some Google pages and some gaming sites on her phone. Both in HSPA+ network mode and the LTE network mode. Although, I didn't see the LTE icon in my status bar even after switching to the LTE network mode, so I wonder if I was on HSPA+ the whole time. On HSPA+ I can on average hit 20's mb/s.

*scratching my head...*
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] bdorr1105:
If it didn't say you were on LTE then you weren't, I can tell you weren't given your upload speed was so low. You were more than likely on hspa+, that is a respectable speed through

---------- Post added at 06:57 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:51 AM ----------

I can confirm this on Note S4 v0.6.... I found this out a couple weeks ago. I have the problem only when on LTE. If you open the APN screen and click on LTE it defaults back to the original APN. It shows a connection on the phone LTE, I didn't do a speed test but I never connected to HSPA+ because it wasn't available in the area. It's weird because when I tether on HSPA+ it immediately works, but when I connect on LTE my device connects just fine but it does not pull pages or load any Web pages until I go into APNs and click on the LTE APN then it resets the data connection then everything is good to go again
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Kal-El7:
Yes, I'm pretty sure I was on HSPA+, as my LTE, when it's connected, gives me upload speeds of 15+mb/s. But man...I never require that and HSPA+ has more coverage here, so I stay on HSPA+. :)

I'd like to do this little trick that you guys are doing when I can catch LTE. I'll be on that lookout.

That had been working for me last week, as well, but it no longer does, unfortunately.

Is there any way to change the network to WCDMA only with 2.0?

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Gwanatu:
So a couple things about the camera. Exposure is on -2 by default, not sure if this was intentional or not. Changing this value doesn't stick once camera is restarted.

Also the camera in tweaked 2 beta has more features. Not sure what happened here but restoring my backed up APK brings back the old features (HDR and such)

Two other things, can't figure out how to search with XDA app so forgive me if this has been addressed. My pop up browser no longer opens Chrome when I click the arrow in the top left. This behavior started with the final version of Tweaked 2, although I cannot replicate the problem on a friends T-Mobile Note 2 running the same version. I've tried a fresh reinstall and it didnt fix the problem. Maybe a bad download or something weird? I checked the MD5 when it was downloaded.

Also I'm using the included AOSP MMS app (THANK YOU BTW!!), however it seems like the 7 way AOSP lock screen messages shortcut doesn't launch this MMS like it does when stock Samsung MMS is installed. Any way around this? Thanks again for all your awesome work, and sorry for the wordy post!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] dwitherell:
The exposure thing was on purpose - but I don't understand where the features would have gone... can I get a screenshot? The smali edit to make exposure default to -2 was incredibly minor and the only thing I changed throughout the betas... Also - changes don't stick for most of the camera settings, and 2.1 will have that reset to 0 instead of -2 -> though I still am interested on what folks think about having auto-contrast enabled by default...

The popupbrowser was an experiment w/ intents, and one that had an unforeseen consequence - it will only pop out to whatever you select as your default browser. In 2.1 that will change - you will be able to pick what browser to pop out to in tsmparts.

The AOSP Mms and 7spot disconnect has also been fixed for 2.1 - no real workaround for it at the moment. I'm trying to figure out a few SecMms things, then I have one or two other ideas I wanna try and I'll probably call it good on 2.1.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Gwanatu:
No big deal, and I hope you don't feel like I'm criticizing your choices here. I've attached the screenshots of the replaced gallery.apk from the previous beta builds of Tweaked 2. The one included in the final only has the first 4 options.

As far as auto contrast goes, I personally don't like it because it makes the pictures too grainy. Anti shake is about the only enhancement I use, even though it makes pictures more grainy than without the improvements it makes are better than any grain added might take away from the picture. Looking forward to 2.1, the changes you listed sound great!

Does anyone know of a working mod to get a 5x6 launcher? I tried the one from this thread below, but it gets stuck after updating apps on boot. I just can't go back to a 5x5 launcher after using 5x6 for so long...the 6x6 app drawer was also nice.

I'm actually using the 5x6 mod/scrolling wallpaper with no eindow slider indication from that very thread and it is working just fine with tweaked 2.0 Not to sound like you are a noob or anything but make sure you wipe dalvich/cache and also fix permissions.. The first time I flashed the mod I forgot to fix permissions and the same thing happened to me.. Just a thought.. Hope it helps.. :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] fireishott:
Would it be possible to added on screen keys to TSM
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] dwitherell:
Are others seeing only the first 4 shooting mode options? I've undone the exposure bit on mine but I see all the options... did you do any csc edits? Just curious.

And I don't feel like you're criticizing - these are the sorts of comments I want to be honest. 2.1 will have the standard defaults (i.e. stock).

That's what I'm going to look into - hard to say if it'll be possible yet but if not smartassassin had the same idea I had for a plan b.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] egghead221:
Hmm, I did wrote Dalvik and cache, but I didn't fix permissions. I'll try that now.

Edit: Tried a few more times fixing permissions and wiping caches but still the same problem getting stuck on the Android upgrading screen. I'll try asking in the mod thread and maybe installing on a fresh wipe. Thanks anyway.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Gack69:
I have two screens of shooting options. Looks like 11 or 12 total. I ended up reflashing and completely wiping and reinstalling eveything. If you recall...I originally couldn't get it to flash, until I dirty flashed over another ROM. But I kept having random reboots. So, wiped, wiped and wiped, and reflashed (advanced mode) and it worked perfectly. No more random reboots since I did this either. Can't wait for 2.1 :) Great work dwitherell!!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] fireishott:
The only thing I notice with on screen keys is the camera app does not play nice. the shoot button is cut in half... but other than that on screen keys are great
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Gwanatu:
Funny enough the same guy without the other issues I've been having has this issue. I shared my backed up APK with him and now he has all the options again.

Same here, none of those zips do anything but break TW launcher for me. Restoring my titanium backup of the one included in Tweaked 2 brings it back.

I have noticed almost all my ram is in use 1.59g out of 1.79gb...any idea why the processes are not being killed in the background.. When I manually clear ram, it closes 41 application that I didn't open....
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] dwitherell:
This almost completely depends on the apps you have installed. That being said - are you noticing poor performance as a result of the ram usage? If not I'd just let android do its thing - it'll kill things off when it needs to (usually anyway :) )

For tethering, I have to forget the network. Reenter my id/password, but don't activate it until I change the app to tether instead of lte. Then it works. So ****ing annoying. I need it for work, I'm about ready to pay for tethering. It's driving me nuts.

Not having any problems myself. I use GPS Status, which may or may not help? You can go to settings > tools > Manage A-GPS state > download ... to help get a quicker fix.

If you're talking about the new maps for "despise the new setup", I totally agree. One good thing about the new maps, it doesn't keep sucking battery after you close it out like it used to. With all location settings on and gps still enabled, I only lose 2-3% overnight.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] sshafranko:
I cant stand the new maps either. And i dont really care about the battery drain as i hibernate maps with Greenify and it stops it from running in the background a long with a couple other battery suckers.

I finally had enough today i miss my Local app which i used to use almost every day. I uminstalled maps 7 and installed the old maps 6 back with seperate nav and local. Works perfect. Go to team blackouts website they have the old version you can download and install inverted all black or clear. GL

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] stueycaster:
Actually I found a feature just yesterday that makes me kinda like the new maps. It shows traffic congestion. I have to drive all the way across the city going to and from work. It was spot on with how much traffic was there.

Being able to pick a route you want it to navigate for you is cool too. It takes traffic congestion into consideration and estimates how long the different routes will take.

The main thing I am still having a problem with is the loss of the on-screen zoom buttons. Trying to pinch zoom with it in the car dock while driving the crowded expressway sucks big time. If I'm not real careful I knock it off center. Then when I tap the center button it zooms all the way in again. I still may go back to the old version if they don't fix that pretty soon. I really hate it.

Update: I just sent them a complaint in the app's feedback thing. I've seen others complaining about it too. If enough people do it maybe they'll get the idea and fix it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] sshafranko:
I have to be honest here. I really didnt give the new maps much of a chance. I did however notice the traffic feature you speak of and i too liked it as i drive a lot too. I used maps nav and local on a daily basis so just imagine you are using these apps every day and one day you wake up and you cant find nav you cant find local and maps is completely different from what you are use to. Its BS in my opinion. Tje old maps was not broken other than the fact it use to run in the background with 2 or more processes usualy and using up ram and battery. That was easily fixed with Greenify. End of story....so why such a drastic change? I dont think it was needed unless im missing something and why fix it if its not broken? It looks like google is fixing it until its broken.

Anyway every app on my phone is from TBO for the black background battery savings and it goes with my theme perfectly. They also have an app on the play store which i downloaded and i get all the apps and updates directly from the app instead of the website.

For now i love having my old maps back. Be sure to check in the playstore "do not auto update apps" otherwise next time you turn your phone on you will have maps 7 again. Lol

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] stueycaster:
Yeah I found out about the new maps right at a time when I wanted to use the Navigator. I was driving down the road trying to figure out this new freakin app. That was a rude awakening. I was rippin mad. Then it really is a pain to zoom in and out. I've been pissed about that right along.

I'm still trying to find a little time to play with TBO and Floating Windows. My wife is sick with Dementia and she really needs a lot of care. I really want to check it out though. I'll find some time at some point.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] xamindar:
What are you guys talking about with traffic congestion? Google maps has always had that. It is nothing new. I'm pretty mad that they actually removed a lot of features, and launching from the navigation link (blue arrow icon) crashes this new maps every time. Oh, and the menu button does nothing in maps now.

I dont know what launcher your using but usualy you can long press the short cut icon and drag it into a folder. Or create two shortcuts and drag one onto the other and it will start a folder you can name shortcuts if you want.

Actually I knew that. But I use Simi Folder to make the folders. It's something I found trying out the Buzz Homepack thing. I kinda like the way it works. I didn't like Buzz Launcher much because it really seemed to lag. I'm pretty much hooked on Holo Launcher HD. I'm pretty happy with my setup these days. I'll work out something with Maps. Hopefully they'll give us back the zoom buttons. That's the only thing I'm not ok with. That's close to being a deal breaker though.
