Hi [MENTION=4610471]nikhilbhalwankar[/MENTION],

If your not already on an existing version of PAC (ie: your not upgrading and installing from fresh) then I recomend the 21.10 ROM. As it does appear to be more stable than previous version, some bugs are fixed in this one... Although not all, there are still a LOT of bugs to fix!!!

However, if you are on an existing PAC rom, then the latest you can goto before it breaks, is 18.10 (if doing an upgrade past it...)

Not really sure on battery life, cant tell from one rom to another, unless something is REALLY broke... Seems normal/ok to me....

But yeah, if planning to do a clean install, then I suggest 21.10, plus when it eventually starts building again (5x days without updates) you should be able to install over the top again, and not having to keep wiping and installing, to resolve the bugs...

I hope this helps??

Cheers, Lister

PACman building errors has been fixed for the moment, after so much stupid commits from CM that broke compiling all is good again. Just fixing some FCs and nightlies will start again :P PAC team done a so so hard work yesterday for fix errors.

I tried clean install but yet ve Systrm UI force closes.. Sometimes logcat shows out of memory errors others shows error toasting notifications in status bar.. Also i am using playerpro.. Always show error for embeding album art in notification

Hi [MENTION=2225255]herna[/MENTION],

Thanks for the update mate, really appreciate any feedback, so we know whats going on... I did see some posts about CM breaking things on the Pac-Man site, but tbh, dont really know what all those commits are.... Understood a few of them!! ;) :D

Are there any new features in the coming builds, or are they all bug fixes mainly?? Any idea's if any of the bugs Ive listed have been fixed?? Mainly the Black / Transparant Bug I feel needs fixing fast. Makes sms txt messages look bad :( lol

Keep up the great work, and good to hear from you... Also, any news on LagFree Gov yet? ;) lol

Hi [MENTION=4610471]nikhilbhalwankar[/MENTION],

Not sure what you mean about the last 4 lines?? If you explain which parts you didnt understand, I'll try explain a bit better.... :)

With regards to the (5x days) bit... I was refering too how we have not seen a new update/build since the 21.10, even though today is the 26th... And Ive seen a few interesting comments/additions to the PAC build, so would be good to see them when they are finally re-building again. But as [MENTION=2225255]herna[/MENTION] has pointed out... It was/is because the CM team have made changes causing them to break :( So hopefully not long now till we can flash a new build.

And hopefully, by chosing "21.10" rom we cna simply upgrade over the top again like we use to be able too. Where as 18.10 was the last build to support that before all the Framework changed, which broke that feature... :(

Lets look forward to some more happy times again :) :D

What do you do better? How are you aiding development?

You are really sad. You fail
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] Lister Of Smeg:
PAC has its bugs, its faults (and plenty of them) but then so do pretty much all ROMs...

But it is by no means a FAILED rom... It is very popular, not just on our Note/N7000, but on many devices alround....

I currently run PAC-MAN rom on my HP Touchpad, ZTE Blade (until it died) and now my N7000....

Sure, it has some very very annoying bugs, which I hope the Devs will address at some point... But it is far from failed yet...

They removed Focal from PAC-man ROM, is why is lighter :D
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] Lister Of Smeg:
Nooooooooo :( I liked Focal..... (good job I kept a copy of the APK from a previous build.... ;)

But yeah, heard the dev of Focal has gone his own way... I know its in the PlayStore now... but isnt the PlayStore one crippled with advertising about the donation version...??

So other than that, this version is safe to upgrade too??

Thanks, Lister

---------- Post added at 06:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:13 PM ----------

@Herna,

Also, other than the removal of Focal, any major or neat changes in this version?? Is it ok to install over the 21.10 build??

As installing the 21.10 over the 18.10 build broke the rom... (due to all new frameworks, do we have to clean install with this one too?)

Thanks mate, Lister
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] herna:
The Focal app on PAC is the same than Play Store, the free version one. You must no have problem dirty flashing.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] LinearEquation:
Why don't you try it and see. Look at the change logs to see what's different.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] Lister Of Smeg:
Last time I did that, I had a phone that didnt boot up... :( I then had to flash an older rom over the top of a new rom to make it work again. God only knows what confusing conflicts may of arisen due to that... But at least it booted again.

Thankfully guys, it is safe to Flash this one over the 21.10 build, all boots up again. A couple of FC's afterwards, but the usual tricks work...

As for change logs, which change logs?

The Nightly ChangeLog doesnt update, unless I am looking in the wrong place... but coming from the source of the site, it's dead/no link.

The RC ChangeLog is just of major builds, which was when 23.00 came out, and nothing since....

And the Gerrit ChangeLog's (the most up to date) ones change so frequently, its hard to know what made it to this rom and whats waiting till the next release. As soon as its announced a feature is added, it is then pulled again....

So unless there is another source I've missed, not sure what is the best source to go via to see whats changed....??

<This post/reply is not a dig... It's merely a question/asking, as I may not be going to the correct place to find the change logs.... but all the ones I've seen/use so far are of little use >

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] Tomdroid:
I went ahead and flashed 27 over 18. Bad idea. First boot worked, loads of fc (e.g. SMS, email,... ). 2nd boot and all after that didn't work at all, phone would loop for several minutes then the screen would go black (though cpu still heating).

So reflashed 18 over 27 (hey, worth a shot, right? ;)), also no good. Email worked again but now SMS and phone would fc (well phone rather went into a crash loop).
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] Lister Of Smeg:
Hi TomDroid,

Thanks for the heads up here....

Has anyone installed the 27.10 over 21.10.... Are they getting the same as below, or does this work now due to the changed Framework??

I think you might have to bite the bullet, and wipe and start from 21.10 onwards. Although there still could be faults with 27.10 and we just dont know...

FC on 27 and 28 builds for me

I did a full wife before flashing the 21st build. After a few hiccups with setup wizard it seemed to work well. But when I dirty flashed to the 27th I lost phone app functionality.

Phone FC not resolved after a clean flash of the 28th build. I cant force the status bar to show with PIE enabled or edit the PIE buttons to the ones I want but I switched back to PA as my daily driver anyway because I need to make and receive phone calls.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] Lister Of Smeg:
Hi Diminou91,

True, it does appear to be a faster method.... as despite 300x odd users from around the world downloading each nightly... Barely anyone seems to share their opinions on it. Admittedly those who are downloading may not necessarily be coming from this site to get it! But ya would at least you'd think there was more than say the odd 4 or 5 who continue to share their findings, bugs, views on it...

Its a lot easier to go via user experience, if there is a KNOWN fault than to put yourself through what if...

As my findings on Nand backups lately, are anything less than reliable. I've done a few, and a couple of them didnt work at all... so was pointless doing/having a backup.

Where it would be much quicker for those who have flashed it (clean or dirty) to express their findings... (re: constant fc's) then ya know not to bork ya current working perfect setup...

Otherwise its back to that Classic.... Lets install a really old build over the top of the latest, in the hope it will give life back to the phone, albeit buggy...

People who are using this ROM, PLEASE.... come forward, share your findings... otherwise ya can't complain when bugs exist if they are not posted.... ;)

Cheers, Lister
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] diminou91:
Agreed. But I don't have any bugs or crash since one month or so.

I'm using phablet mod, pie, halo.. Even xposed framework! The only thing that bother me is sometime the rom don't have enough ram and get really slow, but killing a few apps and woot!

Even my battery life is good (like one day and half, sometimes two).

Anyway, if I say it's faster it's because I know just a few users share their experience.. When I have bugs it's always already reported so I'm just reading post and never have occasion to share mine. I'll do it for my next flash :)

Hi Guys,

Interesting bug Ive had for a while... Is that if I take a screenshot, or download a photo via the browser on my phone. If I then went to sent it to my PC via a USB cable... I get nothing coming out the other end???

On phone, I can see the picture, a thumbnail and even click it to see full size, and how big the file actually is....

If I copy it to the PC, I then loose the thumbnail, no full size picture loads, and when I check the size, its because it has somehow nulled it, as it is 0/zero bytes in size...???

So I have to send it to the Cloud/Google Drive, then load Google Drive on my PC, and download it via there...

Not the end of the world, just annoying... :(

Any other file seems to transfer ok, other than photos... :(

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] JoeCastellon:
Hi everyone,

I downloaded the 11/4 nightly and after setting it up, here are my findings:

Appbar almost never works. It works for a couple of minutes after configuring it, but then it won't work until I open the configuration again. Then, again it will only work for a few minutes. I really like Appbar so I hope this gets fixed.

I can't save new APNs (APN list is empty). When setting up a new APN, after touching "Save", nothing happens. It just exists back to the empty APN list.

I installed HiAPN to try to fix the above issue. It said it needed to be set as system app and did it automatically, then said it required a reboot. I touched OK but now my phone won't go past the "Samsung Galaxy Note N7000" screen.

Looking forward to your comments :)

[UPDATE]

I tried flashing Gapps again, and that made the phone boot up. I did notice the boot screen animation listing all the apps I have installed. Not too eager to try rebooting again, for the time being.

HiAPN managed to successfully create the APN for my provider and I can now browse on 3G. I still can't add new APNs manually, but I CAN modify the ones HiAPN added for me.

Battery appears to be draining insanely fast :(
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] LinearEquation:

Abandon the frakking ROM already...u r clogging up the thread. The ROM is more stable than its ever been. Tablet mode works. Every time u say it doesn't work I check for myself and it works better than it ever had before.

U r doing it wrong

Also start using PIE! Its more efficient than tablet mode navigation now. 100x more so. Use per app density for apps u want in tablet but u should be navigating with a customized PIE. Trust me on this.

I keep the status bar up in PIE for easy & fast, quick tiles access. I also use the ribbons

Lack of support and encourage of this rom

I can understand your frustration [MENTION=4815423]vts60[/MENTION], but often it's more useful to provide a lolcat™....

Nevertheless I agree with you about with the feeling "ignored" part. I really wonder where [MENTION=1806623]beerbong[/MENTION] is and why is he not attending this thread, I mean not even on an occasional timing... it gives an impression of an abandoned project or a closed thread, he seems to be more focused on AOSPA (which is ok, we all know its a far more popular rom than this one), but I think there's no point to maintain this rom on this device if there is no proper support or (somewhat frequent) presence of the OP or some more knowledgeable people to lead on the helping and squashing part of the rom on the n7000 and adding to all this, let me say that this rom is a little far from being relatively stable, so... if that is not the case, I think the project should get passed to a more willing OP that effectively help keep the project alive on our device.

No attacks intended on my part, just a respectful POW of the actual situation (In which I could be or couldn't be wrong, but if that's the case, I sincerely apologize in advance :rolleyes: , all devs and real contributors deserve my whole respect!).

U show up here 2 years late and start whining about support? Wow. This device is dumb old u know that right? The Note Roms have come a LONG way.

And btw I did take the time to unzip ur logcat and look at it...all u do is whine that tablet mode for u isn't working, u do it daily. No one else is complaining about tablet mode and I checked it works fine for me in fact it works better than it ever used to work

Try something else, if u can't figure what is wrong with ur setup then don't use it, adapt learn new things...I suggested PIE, it took me a long time to switch from tablet mode to PIE but once I tried it on a Nexus 4 I was sold. I think u will like it

You're right in some way, i'm focused in AOSPA as it's my main project right now and i don't have enough time to even flash PACMAN from a few weeks now. That doesn't mean i ignore this thread, i read it everyday but, as i said, i don't have time to develop pacman.

Anyway the development of pacman keeps going on as there's a lot of good devs in this project and, as happens in cm, everything done for the S2 affects directly the note,
