On a side note, my battery yesterday was awesome. Had 73% left after 14 some hours at work. Between the kernel and 4.3 I think our idle times are getting better, or something. Android usage showed high, but wasn't reflected in battery drainage.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] MeetFace:
I too had great battery life since flashing the odexed version. After a 6 hour night's rest. I had used 64% battery and had ~4hrs screen on, with 20 hrs since charge. I am using greenify as well.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] nicenice19:
I successfully flashed the latest alpha build and it boots just fine for me; however, when I do a reboot, the phone just hangs on the Samsung screen. It did this on yesterday's build as well so I had to restore my nandroid. Any ideas why or how to fix?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] davesbest:
That happened to me on install also. I just pulled the battery and it booted right up the next time. It may not help you, but if you haven't tried it yet you could give it a shot.

Edit: My response isn't as clear as I thought so here is what I did: The first time I rebooted after the install it hung up at the Samsung screen. With the screen still up, I pulled the battery. I put the battery back in and turned on the phone and it booted back up. Now when I reboot, it works with no problems. I hope this helps.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] nicenice19:
Yeah I tried that. Also, tried rewiping both factory reset and the internal storage but neither worked.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] sleshepic:
Are you flashing anything after flashing the rom?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] sleshepic:
off a little early and odexed up a build that I came back to. up to Beta.1 Build.

Guess we're out of the Alpha's Boys :)

And since Slim Team is releasing their own alphas now officially through their Website, we have official Slim Extras and Gapps to be included, and odexed, along with the builds now. Thanks Slim Team!

Testing and linking soon
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Skripka:
Hmmm....to keep sitting here pressing F5...or to go buy beer....then come back and press F5 over beer.... :silly:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] nicenice19:
Nothing at all.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] sleshepic:
Well soon enough you'll have something new to flash after a Wipe :)

Edit: Posted

Due to Odexed System Apps that are now a part of Slim Gapps, a full wipe is recommended.

Going from here they won't be needed as much because of the Slim Add-ons availability for 4.3, but this time is prob a good idea
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] MeetFace:
...no joke, I was a reformed flashaholic until I installed

SlimROM a couple weeks ago...since then it's been a steady diet of awesome.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] K.0.0.L.:
You mean, "former"?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] MeetFace:
As in, I'm now a former reformed flashaholic ;)

Back on the train again, thanks Slesh, big jerk ;)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] MeetFace:
Sweet mother of awesome Slesh. Have the new beta up and running. Almost everything is restored.

Well done again.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] :
Can we use themes on the beta ?

Is it possible to flash TW camera?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Skripka:
Most Cyanogenmod themes do not support Android 4.3 as of yet. They'll work but expect not everything to be themed. In particular the phone dialer/history/contacts.

As far as cameras....You can flash anything you want. Whether it works or bricks your ROM is another matter. I would be very surprised if the Twiz camera from a 4.1 ROM worked under 4.3 and did not brick your ROM. If you want to be a trailblazer and try it anyway, make a Nandroid.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] sarinhighwind:
Well, looks like I better upgrade to 4.3 then with ya'll.

I don't see the 4.2 one getting as much love with what awesomeness you guys are reporting.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Skripka:
Hey sleshepic, beta1 is a nice build... Only oddity I've spotted is with lockscreen rotation on, the slider shortcuts don't seem to rotate properly in landscape mode.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] uToTMeH8:
Been using beta 1 all day and it rocks. Awesome battery life and phone is lightning fast. Nice work! :D
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Bradfordv:
Am I the only one that can't restore apps from titanium backup?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] MeetFace:
Any chance the one's failing were system apps when they were backed up?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Skripka:
The other likely possibility is Play Store being a nagging helicopter app over DPI settings...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] phatmanxxl:
I can't either, I assume TB needs an update for 4.3
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] metro77279:
Maybe it's because of all the 0's on the SD directory.....? Idk. I just erased all the internal memory to start from scratch and I haven't had issues since.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] nicenice19:
I had no issue restoring missing apps with data when jumping from 4.2 to 4.3. I did exclude the system apps.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] MiguelHogue:
If you're on the newest TWRP you can avoid that (all the 0s)

-TeaM VeNuM Like A Boss :flipoff2:

-SoA: Son's of Android™
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] uToTMeH8:
How? I'm on the newest twrp and still get 0 folders
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] aheeejd:
Open TB, hit menu, preferences & scroll down to backup folder location, hit detect, whole device & then hit the legacy one on the bottom. Then hit use current, then hit yes & done

I have a problem with TB hanging when trying to restore/install an app
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] aheeejd:
With the steps I posted I am able to restore every app I have backed up, go to manage apps & fc TB, do the steps I posted, I don't but, after throw in a reboot & then try to restore I guess.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] bullet2300:
Been on this ROM a few days and love it. The only thing that bugs me is that once or twice a day I have to reboot the phone or pull out the battery cause the phone slows down to a crawl. Like I hit the power button to turn the screen on and it takes 15 seconds to actually come on. After a reboot it's fine though. Any ideas? I've not messed with phone performance or anything like that.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Skripka:
This is most likely the DPI annoyance IME. See FAQ item #1.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] sleshepic:
Thx, and yeah that is concerning.

Is this on one of the latest odexed?

Is it primarily from a "wake" scenario?

If so, I'll take another look at some of the added tweaks for next build. I already removed one concerning sleep behavior, but maybe there's another that affects more in 4.3 as well.

Or of course it could be kernel related
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] bullet2300:
Thanks sleshepic! I'm on the 7/28 4.2 odexed version. I would say it happens during web browsing and general normal use for me honestly. Maybe I will see if is any better with the stock kernel. I flashed the one in your thread.

It should be safe to flash stock kernel on this ROM right? :p
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] sleshepic:
I haven't tested any kernels with my 4.3 builds other than what I built them with, which kernel are you referring to?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] bullet2300:
I'm on 4.2.2 but the kernel I flashed was cm kernel governor redux 1.1
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] sleshepic:
That or 1.2 comes with the "latest" 4.2.2 builds. So its back to either being tweaks, or setup, or kernel, or anything :)

Try dirty flashing the rom again, I forget but the build may come with a newer version of the kernel (at work and can't check sorry)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] bullet2300:
OK thanks :) really dig this ROM and can't wait for 4.3 but gonna wait a bit on that one. Cheers!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] :
How can I remove the navigation control hardware buttons after changing DPI settings.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] MeetFace:
This one's pretty intuitive:

Settings> Navigation>Navigation Bar
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] :
There's no navigation option in settings.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] MeetFace:
Are you running SlimRoms 4.3? Those menus exist on 4.22 as well.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] sleshepic:
New kernel for 4.3 builds up on the Team Site

Update sources to latest

Re-did my git and re-pushed commits

Haven't tested myself as I am off to work and on TW at the moment **

Put kernel in Downloads, Sleshepic, Kernels, Testers, CM_Kernel_Governor_Redux_v1.4.zip

http://www.teamvenum.com/download.php

EDIT: scratch that, back on Slim. kernel runnin great **
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] gaganit:
Thinking about trying this 4.3 build for the first time. Currently on a 4.1.2 TW ROM. Anything special i need to do before trying this out?

Also whats the best way to revert back to 4.1.2 if needed.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] pr0xyw0rm:
Nothing especial needs to be done before installing this ROM. Just download and flash as you always do. Best way to revert back to 4.1.2 is doing a backup of your current ROM before flashing new one. Just boot into recovery and back up your ROM. You are going to lose sprint visual voice mail but you can Google it and install it later.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] sarinhighwind:
I noticed i cannot send or recieve pictures via text messages.

I dont rember reading about it being a bug. Did i miss something?

Im still on 4.2 till we have some more reliable builds on 4.3. Got text errors comming through for pictures not being able to be downloaded.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mshnayde:
Guys,

Question as what's the difference in the LCD density for all the screens.

I hcanged mine to the 267 which is supposed to be Native for the Note 2.

Also, is anyone else having problems with their Camera / Gallery?

Seems to start but than crashes and have to reboot to get it to work again.

Weird.

Thanks
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] phatmanxxl:
Use another camera app, I use camera ZOOM and havent had any problems with the camera, also a gallery like quick pic is a lot better than the stock gallery.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Aquarius169:
Could someone tell me if it possible to flash the s4 clock and weather to a 4.3 rom. Does this rom have this halo feature I hear about
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] davesbest:
As far as the LCD question, I think you'll find setting it at 320 works best. YMMV.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] sleshepic:
Halo feature is in in my 4.3 PAC builds posted, not in Slim though. Don't know about the other stuff. There's a clock and weather included though. It's sharp IMO
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] sleshepic:
Yep, that'll do. I'll be getting two work days outta this setup. Will see how it holds overnight.

And the pics below are of the dash clock/weather. I think its a pretty solid clock/weather/etc widget. Mimics the lock screen widget
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Skripka:
I prefer 300 max... Anything bigger and the status bar gets silly big eating up screen space

Dashclock is pretty hip... Even more hip is that AOSP themers are finally supporting 10.2 ;)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] MeetFace:
I prefer 280 system-wide, then I use Xposed to get several of my apps to 240.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] gaganit:
Thanks! Just got 4.3 up and running. However, cannot get Google wallet setup. Always get "Wallet is unable to proceed until this device is fully initialized...."

Is this to be expected? Any workarounds?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Aquarius169:
QUESTION

You can use the s pen on aosp roms or this one.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] phatmanxxl:
Yea s-pen works fine, but you won't have any TW apps/features.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] nicenice19:
Same problem here.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Herk718:
[MENTION=4302068]sleshepic[/MENTION] anyway to get USB tethering working on the latest beta? Thanks in advanced.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] pendleton_33312:
No matter which kernel I use when I'm on a call the speaker sound like the phone is in a cup under the bed... I even moved it all the way to 100% this happens with all aosp ROMs I have to be doing something wrong. I'm adjusting the in call volume for speaker and headset I'm using the kernel baked in the ROM.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] K0NRT15:
I'm having the same issue...even tried plasma kernel
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] sleshepic:
Settings, advanced options, device, audio
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] sleshepic:
Also, please search. I typed in "audio" in the search this thread tab and got the like 4 other times this has been answered. Don't go just flashing kernels
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] DarkPhoenix:
I love this rom but I'm having a big problem with it. If I reboot it hangs at the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 screen and won't go any further. When I go into recovery it shows my storage as password protected. I flashed following the instructions on the download page. Has anyone had this problem? I'm using the newest beta build with TWRP.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] MeetFace:
Try bumping down and up the volume once your call starts. For some reason that seems to activate the volume increase. I just created a Tasker script last night to ssh this for me, we'll see how that goes.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] nicenice19:
I have this problem as well but a battery pull seems to fix it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] K0NRT15:
I did search and this was the first thing I tried...but volume didn't change for phone calls
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] sleshepic:
Reboot, or try toggling volume down then up. It works. You can make volume go louder than one would even want, for in-call especially
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] DarkPhoenix:
Doing a battery pull and starting the phone puts me right back at the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 screen until I pull the battery again.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] nicenice19:
Maybe try booting into recovery and wipe cache and dalvik?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] sleshepic:
I havent had these issues, and I flash a bunch of times a day. I would say a re-download or full wipe then flash would help.

I would also add that doing an occasional odin restore after months of flashing stuff can help with occasional booting issues.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] DarkPhoenix:
I will try re-downloading and flash it again, I stopped everything to start fresh but that didn't help! I will try again!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Skripka:
Verify MD5, like you always should, of the Zip you downloaded. I suspect you have a corrupt download.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] DarkPhoenix:
That's what I was going to try initially but it asks for a password as soon as you boot into recovery and fails without it. Somehow it thinks I've password protected it when I haven't.

---------- Post added at 09:10 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:10 AM ----------

Thank you, I will double check it.

---------- Post added at 09:36 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:10 AM ----------

The MD5 is correct so I don't think it's a corrupt download!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] DarkPhoenix:
I'm rooted, I have flashed a few other roms since slim and root is intact. It's something about the 4.3 version of slim that is giving me grief when I reboot. Everything is fine with the rom until I have to reboot, that's the whole problem!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] DarkPhoenix:
Could restoring my apps from titanium cause this? I'm not restoring system app, just my regular apps.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] sleshepic:
I would say give it a go without the restore to see. I dont restore apps from tb and dont have the issue, so its possible.

Fortunately AND unfortunately with Android, anything is possible :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] DarkPhoenix:
I will try that! Thank you for your time!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] gaganit:
Anyone successfully using Google Wallet with this rom?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] DarkPhoenix:
Ok, I gave that a shot and ended up with the same result. I flashed a TW rom and had the same result so I don't think it's your rom. I guess I need to find a stock rom and odin that. I flash a stock rooted rom using mobile odin and then reflashed Slim and it's working great so far. Thank you for your help!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] sleshepic:
Finishing up another build before work, hopin to get er done before I have to run.

Beta 1.2
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] sleshepic:
Build is posted, but like the latest PAC build I did advanced/device has been removed. I'm at work til 9, but am going to look into adding it back. Prob suggest sticking with what you got unless lower volume doesn't get to ya.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Skripka:
Was wondering where that option went...seems to work fine so far, only oddity is that on first boot I was getting a "com.phone(I think?) has stopped and must close close" error. Went away once I was done with the setup screen/menus.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] MeetFace:
Slesh, I'm still having problems with the camera, ever since 4.3. I've tried clearing data, clearing cache, and reporting into recovery and fixing perms.

Basically I can take one picture or video and then it essentially freezes.

Any ideas?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mrush:
This rom is awesome.

I am having quite the battery drain tho. Any tips on getting the battery to last longer? I tried to change the processor speed, but the powersave is just too slow. I am trying out greenify but havent noticed a difference. Would the 4.3 kernel possibly work better?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] phatmanxxl:
Use another camera app, I was using camera zoom and wasn't having any problems.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mrjs84day:
Have you noticed any change in photo or video quality? I tried a different app and the quality was pretty bad.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Skripka:
Yup. After first attempt at a photo, camera hung... Now trying to take a photo gets a "can't connect to camera" error.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] MeetFace:
I don't mind using another camera app, but I'm sure that Slesh would prefer to to get things working in the ROM. I would prefer to use the included Camera. Just letting him know so he can quash the bugs =]
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] vlbaston:
Valid point,,,Other than the camera or there other major concerns u have? I been using 4.2 as my daily and over all i am satisfied. are u using 4.3 as your daily? thanks.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] MeetFace:
Yep 4.3 as my daily since it came out. Everything is working pretty darn well. I've got a battery leak to work out. Trying to figure out if it deals with Lux or the redux kernel I flashed...installed both at about the same time.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] sleshepic:
Omg these days are killing me. Finally almost off work on a while, gonna work on reverting some of the device settings commits tonight if I can, get our sound back
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mshnayde:
That's true but there have been no updates recently. I just started using camera zoom fx and actually like it quite a bit more than ten built in application.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] phatmanxxl:
I understand, I figured slash was aware. Just letting y'all know it still works.

---------- Post added at 09:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:12 PM ----------

I always thought it wasn't as good as it should be, but then again we are using ported ROMs.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] gfp11289:
I'm using the 4.3 android camera and I haven't had any problems since

You should try installing it if your camera isn't working like mine was
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] MeetFace:
You flash this, or apk?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] vlbaston:
Other than know issues, screen flickers... other than that running nice, camera is working fine so far, if the screen didn't flicker and I had tether it be perfect.. Any info about tethering? Nice work thanks. 4.3....
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] sleshepic:
Huge thanks to slick rick, Pointed me the right way on Device Settings

Which is now back

New Build is Up
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Skripka:
New ROMs make for Happy Fridays! :good:

Hey Sleshy....making DPI changes effect the boot animation is a nice touch.

EDIT: Camera seems back to working as expected too.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] MeetFace:
Dirty flashed over beta 1, all good so far. Stock camera isn't freezing either ;)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Ideas4ya:
Hey so you are using a Redux kernel on 4.3? And it works? I've been waiting for plasma to come out with a 4.3 version, but F that!! Where can I find the redux kernel?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] sleshepic:
It always comes with now, with ehatever the latest is (should be 1.4 now I think)

I only posted separately for others on 4.3 roms if they wanted
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Ideas4ya:
Great!! I'm on PA now, but I'm downloading this now to give your kernel a shot. If I can overclock it then I'll stick around!!!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] sleshepic:
Nope. No OC
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Ideas4ya:
Well, I'm still liking the rom. I've changed the dpi, but is there anyway to actually enable tablet mode where my navigation and status bar are combined at the bottom of my screen?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] sliverr7x:
Slesh any chance on getting the advanced settings working on pac like slims

Rockin it from my Macknote2
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Skripka:
Psssssssst- it is already back ;)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] sleshepic:
Ive pushed the reverted changes to the forked repos on my git, and have those now as my device tree, so yeah, from now on the builds will have it back
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] MeetFace:
If I'm having trouble with GPS, is the only course of action flashing stock and getting a lock?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] K0NRT15:
that's the only thing that worked for me after trying just about everything
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] MeetFace:
I have something strange.after flashing back to stock so I could fix my GPS, I restored my back up and all seemed to be well, except that about 70 of my apps were no longer installed. Had to restore them with titanium.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] sleshepic:
That is sttange. Never seen that. I go back and forth between 4.2.2 and 4.3 about twice a day now amd dont have amy issues. Had you tested the backup prior?

On another note, was working on a build last night, dont have time to finish up and release. But have a bump up to Beta 2
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] MeetFace:
I noticed it when restoring data another time. Really puzzling
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] MeetFace:
Anyone figured out a way around having to toggle sound down and then up while in call? I've almost maxed out the in call volume, but when the call starts it is quiet, I volume down several clicks and then the sound gets louder, and then I can increase it even further.

On a side note, I tried creating a tasker script that does this automatically, but I think it might need to be tied to the hardware keys being pressed. Fwiw
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mccurt29:
to fix your in call volume you will have to toggle your volume rocker while in a call. once you hear it get really loud DONT TOUCH IT AGAIN it will stay loud for all future calls.. but if u hit it again it will stay loud but only for the call that u are on & u will have to redo again for the next call
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] JudasD:
quick question that i could not find the answer to; what is needed for this rom to be official from the slim team for the Sprint Note II?

Thanks,

JD
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Skripka:
Jeeze slechy, what is with the 60MB jump in zip file size? Just wondering. :)

I'm kinda curious about this too....Probably requires Sleshy to officially be in-team with Slim etc. Might also be in part as Cyanogenmod last I knew was not planning on "officially" supporting Note 2.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Bradfordv:
So I have the 8/16 beta build and for some reason down to 35% with 50 minutes on screen time and battery stats shows I have 6 and half hours of keep awake time and 10 hours of off the charger time.
