Lol wakelag is a flashable zip that can be added to any rom. It is included in most ROM's and Kernels. All it is a variable changed from false to true.

Do you recommend a certain kernel? I want a power save feature to really save on battery even if slower processes. On clean rom now but will download this soon and try it

I've had great success with Perseus on my phone, running the "balanced" setup.

Is another kernel really needed for this ROM? If so which ones and their settings, please
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] thrgk:
I checked all the brightness and volume things for sliders under power widgets but still no sliders at the top where toggles are. Any idea? I really want brightness and volume sliders
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] joshm.1219:
You have to tap the toggle, then the sliders appear.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] joshm.1219:
i won't be with my computer any time soon to search for you, but i got it from the beans thread awhile ago. you could probably just search 'partial wakelock zip' on Google and find one... there's technically 4 different wakelocks for android i believe, partial meaning screen off/cpu on. someone correct me if I'm wrong.

Sorry guys, posted in wrong thread, having problems deleting this post!

There is a zero wake lag option built into Beanz rom, It located in Settings, custom settings, rom control, miscellaneous mods, check box zero wake lag.

Hi guys. Just thought I'd pop in to say I still exist and to say hi. :rolleyes: I feel bad about having to take a "break" with my Android developing but with my divorce fresh (from February) and the recoil from that (refinancing the house and getting finances in order) I haven't had time for much other than my "other" job. I've been forced to work hard on my full time job to make enough money to try to keep my house by refinancing and between SunTrust dragging their feet on the HARP refinance, false starts with that, restarts, sending paperwork and resending the same stuff a half dozen times, I'm still kinda in limbo but I'm working hard to get things in order. Also been spending more time with the kids and taking weekends off to be with them and they're doing great so I guess my priorities are good for now.

As far as Android, I'm starting to eyeball new devices but the Note III is probably not for me. The Note II is about as big as I can handle and my main complaint being it's just a little too tall for my pockets means the Note III will be even worse in that regard. Maybe an S4? Not sure, but that's down the road once I get my finances in order. For now, I'm still happy with the Note II.

Other than that, I don't have much to share from my life other than maybe some personal YouTube videos like me playing piano and singing a song I wrote for my kids or my kids doing some funny videos on their channels. We have fun doing that stuff together but this isn't really the place for that so I won't bore you with those. I really just wanted to say I haven't forgotten my friends here. I think of you often and hope to get back into the swing of things at some point. I'm also excited for what the new iPhlop can do for Android. ;)

Good to hear from you, brother. Play with those kids....they don't stay little for long.

The steady perfection of this ROM has begun to bore me.

Other than Jelly Beans, who else has the zero wake lag built in?

Sad story note 3 is a good phone but Verizon has gone the way of the unlockable boot loader. They're working on safe strap for your device bit most people are ditching to T-Mobile for the freedom
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] jaydubb71:
Yeah but... t-mobile sucks in this area. I will wait until someone unlocks the bootloader. And I will never use another HTC device ever again...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Dvanzutphenkann:
If the boot loader gets unlocked it will be a miracle. BTW t Mobile will continue to suck until they deploy their aws system they will be better than Verizon is now. Don't worry Verizon has already began launching their aws system, so they'll be the best for about another year then T-Mobile will catch up and it will be a toss up. I fully expect Verizon to offer unlimited by then to compete with T-Mobile but I expect T-Mobile to raise pieces dramatically after the aws rollout to recoup costs the one thing that remains constant is that Verizon is fighting unlockable bootloaders with resources not seen at other providers.

New Updates

Hey Mikey.

Will you be updating this to the new 4.3? I see it should be released to our phone by the end of the month, and have seen a few working on international versions already. If no updates from you I may move to the note 3.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] gamedic12112:
I can't get vzw voice mail or the Google variant to work. Ideas??

[MENTION=2712518]mikeyxda[/MENTION], it's been a while since you moved on from the Evo3d I've been using. Just picked up a Nexus 5 for Sprint on upgrade (finally) at Amazon last week for $50 and wanted to see what you were up to. Thanks for the update, and I hope you get caught up with all the personal stuff.

I realize you are on Verizon now, and I am under the impression that even though the Nexus 5 is a true "World" phone compatible with all current US Carriers/Frequency Bands, Verizon may have some sort of block or flag that prevents it from getting on their network (Don't know why really). In any case, if it works out that I'm wrong, perhaps you will be able to pick one up in the future. They can be had via carriers on contract or directly from Google's play store. I am really enjoying mine and hope to see you around.

Note Updates

With the update for this phone days away, who thinks Mikey will be back with his version of it. Is he gone for good or just in deep hibernation. Who is the next best developer to go to for roms?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DrunkUncas:
He'll be back. He's busy with other phones.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Bsober:
Must be under another name or something then. On his statistics page, , the last posting mikeyxda made was back in September.

I flashed this yesterday for the first time and runs smooth no gps issues the only thing I would like to change is the toggles is there any way to install the 23 instead?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] JTrusty:
I've been rocking this ROM for months. I use Morphology to theme and put a different toggle system on it. Just make sure you install MacksUpdater before installing one of the Morphology themes.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] killa408shark:
Do you have a link for that? Tia

Say what ya will.

This rom is dead. Mike is gone. This is a great rom, but I'll be on beans 23 as soon as he has it ready. If mike was around he'd have been developing the new update long ago. If he's working on other phones it's under another name. Check his bio and see his last post to anything here.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DrunkUncas:
Yeah, it's a bummer, but on the bright side Beans incorporated the zero wake lag in his last build, so hopefully he'll do so in his 4.3.

Assuming the zero wake lag tweaks work on the new stuff, of course...

I've been using CM11 for the last week, and it's pretty amazing, but the lag friggin kills me after rocking Mikey's for most of the last year. The best ROMs I've ever used.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Bsober:
I've never been a big fan of CM. I'll stick it out with this rom until I hear beans has new 23 running good, or eventually go to Note 3. Mikey's roms are as close to perfect as they get. Not up to all the bugs in all the other roms out there right now. The note 3 is looking real good for me. Might be my new years gift to self
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mikeyxda:
Yeah, been on hiatus for a while. Divorce plus trying to save my house from short sale has prevented me from doing anything but my full time job the last few months. The 4.3 updates have me almost ready to come back and tinker again but once I get involved in the dev stuff here, it's hard to get out and I lose a lot of money from loss of hours at my normal job. So I'm on the fence. I'd love to be able to whip up some ROM goodness again but my mind is overriding the heart right now. Just not enough time to go around.

I am still on the Note II though and still on this ROM. I got my daughter an S4 so maybe if she brags about her color emojis much more, it'll annoy me into making another ROM. ;)

Mike
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] krowley3:
I ported your Rom over to the evo v 4g from the 3d back in the day. I have my own 4.3 Rom that is solid. You should just take a look and if you want, use it as a base or give me a hand. I have always been a fan of meanrom. Sophisticated Rom is the name of it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Bsober:
Hey Mike, glad to hear from you. I had a feeling those were the reasons for absence. I'm still on this rom also. I've made a back up here and there and downloaded a rom or two, but could never get myself to budge from this rom. I can fully understand your not being able to develop these days. No one is really making anything I'd want out there now, and I see no reason to leave this rom. It's perfect and does all I ever need. 4.3 sounds like a bogus upgrade anyways.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mikeyxda:
Yeah, I've read a lot of posts that say 4.3 is worse than 4.2.x yet I suspect 4.3 would be faster overall since most incremental updates are. I really appreciate krowley's offer to use Sophisticated as a base since, right now, that looks to be a stable 4.3 ROM with very few trouble reports. After the kids go back to school on the 7th, I may take a look at the state of things WRT 4.3.

On a related topic, I have no interest in the other phones out there. My daughter's S4 is a masterpiece but I really see no need to upgrade because I prefer the size of the Note 2's screen over the S4: no old man glasses needed when looking at the Note 2. ;) The Note 2 is simply the perfect size for me personally. And I like the pen. The Note 3 is too big because I already decided that anything larger than the Note 2 simply won't fit in my pocket. The Note 2 doesn't even fit in my back pocket but I can tolerate it (sticks out just a tad) so the slightly larger size of the Note 3 makes it a no-go for me.

BTW, loving Verizon! I dumped Sprint completely when I got my daughter the S4 for Christmas. Sprint service here is so bad that you can't even rely on getting/receiving simple calls and texts. I took the early out penalty but figured it was worth it since I got the S4 for one dollar at Best Buy. Have no idea how they did that: it was on special for $49.99 and the register said $1. I asked them if they forgot to add the phone and the girl said, "No. It was $1. Happy Holidays" and she winked at me. So either losing weight and pumping iron is getting me extras with the girls (doubtful) ;) or they had some sort of extra Best Buy deal going on the S4.

Mike
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] joshm.1219:
I switched to the s4 and i miss this rom dearly. IDK what it was about the status bar but the gradient was perfect. Glad to see you're back Mike, even if you aren't developing anymore.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Bsober:
Agree with ya on all points. I've played with friends phones, both s4 and note 3 and love them, except when I go for the pen on s4 and note 3 is just to long for my pockets. Krowleys rom is one I almost went for. Another interesting one Lacoursiere 18. He and decks ported a note 3 over. Krowleys is nice like yours as in in appears very stock. My friend with a note 2 ATT cant get over how mine feels to use compared his. He doesn't even realize its rooted. I got used to flashing something new constantly there for a couple years, and like an addiction it's hard to want to stop. My phone and this rom is perfect and i'm just about in acceptance of that now. Thanks Mike.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] wolfeyes30:
Nice to hear from you Mikey. I use to run your Sprint S3 rom and it was fabulous, minus Sprint. :eek: I also left early with penalty and move over to Verizon. Worlds of difference between the two of them.

Sorry to here about your personal life. I been there and it's tough. Wish you the best and keep a positive mindset.

Krowley3 rom is rock solid and I fine 4.3 smoother than 4.1.2.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DrunkUncas:
I live in Brandon. If things go south, and you need help moving, hit me up.

On a more technical note, would it be possible to make a flashable zip to get the zero wake lag on a 4.3 rom? I've been playing around with 4.3 and 4.4, but the delay drives me crazy.

I keep coming back. I can't quit you baby!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mikeyxda:
I'll probably take a look at a few things around Jan 7 when the kids go back to school. I had hoped they fixed the wake lag by now but by your comment, I guess not. That's one thing I can't live with: gotta have zero wake lag. :)

Mike
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Bsober:
Well I made a jump and tried Sophisticated rom. New update seems to only have a few decent improvements. Browser was quicker it seemed, though my speeds on speed test were terrible! Spent quite a bit of time playing around and setting it up nice, but am now waiting on phone to finish restoring my mean bean backup. Wake lag is no joke. Spent more time trying to turn my phone today than anything else I did with it. I'd hit the power button and swipe the lock screen only to realize it hadn't even opened yet. Then i'd end up hitting the power button again just about the time it would open and shut it off again. Hell with 4.3.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mikeyxda:
Zero Wake Lag is something I could probably whip up next week for 4.3. When you say speed tests were no good on 4.3, you mean internet speeds? I read quite a few posts in the sophisticated ROM thread and lots of people say it flies. Maybe they're talking about the UI and not WiFi/mobile speeds? I'd hate to jump into 4.3, do a lot of work on it, and only find that as a base it's not as good as 4.2. I see a lot of complaints in other threads and on the Verizon forum, YouTube comments, etc. saying the 4.3 update made their phone worse. Often times they don't clarify, so I'm not sure what that means. My fear is spending lots of time on a 4.3 ROM and it taking weeks/months to get it dialed in. I just don't have that kinda time right now.

Mike
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] krowley3:
I find that the UI is much faster and smoother. I actually felt like this was an upgrade. It has worked great for me so far. It has not affected my data speeds at all. Well there is an easy way for you to try it before you buy it here you know. We know you have a customer recovery. Just for testing purposes, backup the ol' MeanBean and install Sophisticated. Do not do the firmware or anything until you know it is something you might like. If you do not do the FW, your wifi will not work, but it will give you an idea of how the 4.3 update feels. If you dont like it, nothing has changed for the worse and you restore your backup. I would love a zero wake lag fix for Sophisticated. I actually started following your guide to try myself, but there have been changes in the smali being modified.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mlin:
This isn't a hard coded fix, but using this app to implement a partial wake lock has eliminated wake lag for my. I believe this is what the original mod accomplished anyway, or that was my understanding at least. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=eu.thedarken.wl&hl=en
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Bsober:
Overall it seemed to be a good rom. Solid as far as everything working and being smooth. Krowley 3 has done a pretty excellent job as far as I can see. I'm going to find out a few times today what kinda download speeds I can get as I still am on the new firmware. The main thing was the wake lag. I installed your rom the day I bought the phone, so I never experienced it before. It was unbelievable. As far as any new features in the new update, I didn't really see any that turned me on enough to need to update. It's hard for me to tell as yours is the only rom I've used and it works so well. Sophisticated would be pretty close with your zero wake lag. I would take Krowleys advise and take a test drive. Only you would know as a developer then if it would be worth your efforts. I'm plenty happy with what i'm using and would be his too with zero lag
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DrunkUncas:
I'm running the new firmware on MeanBean. No problems.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Bsober:
Yeah, I'm going to give it a couple of days yet. If it's still not better I'll try and revert to old firmware if I can. I still had terrible speeds all day today and dropped most calls I made and received. Not sure it could be the problem, but maybe our towers are over loaded. I live on a small island and we've got 40 thousand people in town for New Years.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DrunkUncas:
I did Fantasy Fest a dozen years ago. I love the Keys, but I'm not coming down for any holidays again. I'm surprised your phone works at all.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] jeffa187:
Mikey, I love your meanbean rom, this is the second phone I have had it on (the first one was a sprint evo 4glte). My only request is to have the stock keyboard. I use the the microphone all the time but I cant find it after I install this rom. If you could add it back or point me in the right direction on where to get it I would really appreciate it!!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Bsober:
I used microphone with this rom. I cant remember exactly but if you don't see the microphone button by the space bar, check in keyboard settings that you have voice selection checked
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] jeffa187:
I found it, thanks for the help. I guess the rom just un selects it by default. I thought it was just taken out all together... my bad.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mikeyxda:
Wait... what? :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] krowley3:
Took ya long enough:laugh:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DrunkUncas:
Sweet baby Jebus!

I'm on a 4.3/4 walkabout, and while some of the new features are cool, I'm not sure any of them are worth losing zero wake lag over.

I switch off MeanBean, and it's like my phone's retarded.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mikeyxda:
It's slow going but I've cleared the rest of my week to work on it. I've got Zero Wake Lag working, my color battery meter, 4x5 launcher (done with the true MJ9 launcher apk not with the old SecLauncher2 apk that I've seen some others using), and that's as far as I've gotten so far.

Very cool, something to look forward to trying. BTW, where in the Redneck Riviera are you? I'm in PCB
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] hopesrequiem:
I'll try anything you put out Mike. Good to see you bro. I ran all of your Verizon meanbean versions for this phone. I'll def run it again
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mlin:
I'm late to the Note 2 party so i never tried this ROM though I likely used your work on the EVO4G. Looking forward to trying this.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DrunkUncas:
Don't kill yourself on the gadgets. We're big boys; we can add that stuff later on our own.

If you're short on time, I'd be happy with a zero wake lagged stock 4.3.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Bsober:
Oh yeah, Mikeyxda in the house! This is going to be sweet.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DrunkUncas:
There's a reason some of us are rabid supporters of this ROM. I've gotten 48 hours out of this thing on a stock battery, without that stupid lag that every other ROM has. Better performance with less battery drain? Yes please!

I noticed you posted the Wake Lock Power Manager ap earlier, and said that it fixed the lag. How was it on battery life?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mikeyxda:
Pretty hard to tell at this point: only been running it a few hours. At least to start, I'm not going to put in all the single-core-when-screen-off and dual-core-when-screen-on stuff. Gonna let us get a feel for it first. Seems to be pretty good without the screen on/off stuff already in 4.3.

Mike
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mlin:
I definitely noticed my battery draining faster but not so bad that I couldn't still make it through the day.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] hopesrequiem:
Omg mikey is creating a thread! Crossing fingers!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DPCardoza:
not sure if where to post this. I've since tried a different ROM and am trying to clean up my SD card to clear space. Even though I'm no longer using mean bean I can't seem to delete it from my SD card. It just says Mean Bean can't be deleted. Any advice?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Bsober:
It's a sign. Your phone knows it's the best rom on there. While there are some cool rom's out there, most of them are very buggy and take a week just to set up. This is flash and go. Everything you need and no bugs. That's why the thread appears so small compared to some. Nothing to report except thanks for the flawless rom.:good:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DrunkUncas:
I think this one might be snappier than his 4.3.

I'm considering going back.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] hopesrequiem:
Omg on my way. Any type transparency works for me! Thanks again!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mikeyxda:
Yeah, at least with the new options you can choose either: the dim/stock status bar with beveled black or the bright status bar with transparency. Both work: your choice. Interestingly, there's really no point to offering the dim status bar with transparency because the icons look so bad in the dim state that they just don't work with transparency. Looks great with the bright (full brightness) icons and clock though.

Mike
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] JamesPumaEnjoi:
Is there a debloat zip anyone knows of? Too much unnecessary stuff included in this rom
