Just a note on that last(third) reboot(after pressing accept in the play store). It is a MUST, even if you DON'T change the DPI again. I changed to 320 in step 1 and intended to stay there. After I did the first reboot AND second reboot and pressed accept, all my already paid for app weren't paid for anymore. So I still had to do that third reboot even tho I didn't change the DPI again.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] bwillet:
Sonofabeech. Yep... Followed everyone's advice to the T. I am using the built-in DPI changer, going step by step without doing anything else. Also tried manually clearing market and framework as you suggested, did all the reboots as suggested, nada. Back to MacksRom for now, but I'm going to try a fresh install this weekend and see if I can get it to work without installing anything else. Who knows what may have happened. But at least I know it's not a SlimRom/CM incompatibility, thanks for the assistance! Ah hell, I think I'm going to do a fresh install right now, can't wait!!!!!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] VeNuMuS:
Yeah he is..... Wanna flash it??? :laugh::p
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] ajgates92:
I used this that way I can change the dpi to whatever I want without worrying about it. Inverted Updated Google Play The directions to install are easy, and you can change the dpi to whatever you like without having to worry about the store. Plus the inverted store looks awesome on cm.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Skunk Ape1:
I wanna theme it! :D

FWIW...my 64gb SD Card is working without a hiccup. Formatted to FAT32.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] HTCRyan:
I agree. Same thing here. Tried many cameras on several slim and AOSP, AOKP, SOKP builds with full wipe and format of internal storage with the same result. The stock cam performed the best but as you know still sucks. My bank app would freeze anytime trying to take pic for deposit regardless of Camera too...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mccurt29:
thats what i thought thx for this lil fix
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] e92dream:
Everything seems to be working great for me. Even been using Google Camera. FYI... If you get the Play Services error from new gapps, just give it a few minutes and it will update through play store. Only issue I'm having is music skipping when screen off. Have raised PM lock and Min cpu but hasn't helped. Also flashed new Plasma 2.50 a5 but that also didn't fix.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] sliverr7x:
If u are using Google launcher I have read that the setting for hot word under voice turn that off that might be what's causing ur music skip
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] sliverr7x:
Hey slesh stupid ? Were is the chamber of secrets or is not in this build
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Arjohns:
IF its in the build... Go to Developer Options...scroll to bottom...there will be a blank looking spot under the last thing in the list....click the blank spot and tada... Chamber of secrets.

Edit: HOWEVER, I must warn everyone that if you have no knowledge of the things that feature is capable of I suggest NOT touching it cause you can seriously Bork things.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Scoosch:
Everything seems to be working good. I did notice that the new Google Camera app works slightly better with the new build. I haven't had anything go wrong yet.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] okantomi:
Hey, thanks for the great ROM. I have done my due diligence but can't seem to find a fix for lack of mobile data. I've literally wiped and reinstalled this ROM 10 times and no matter what I've tried, I can't activate data. I'm on Sprint through CREDO so the Sprint codes don't seem to work. I'm on the earlier (non-Knox) bootloader, so that may be an issue. Any ideas beyond what has already been posted in this thread? I've tried several other 4.4 ROMS, same problem.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] HTCRyan:
What recovery are you using? TWRP has problems. Known issue. Use CMW or I use Philz and they both work fine.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] n3td3v:
+1 to using Philz! It's been awhile since I had issues similar to his data glitch the first time breaking in my note 2 and I believe my problem was resolved by switching from twrp to using Philz. Mind you, from the data issue state, I returned my phone to stock first and then started from square zero using the proper recovery.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] HTCRyan:
He has got to be using TWRP. Very well documented issue with 4.4... unless his Flux Capacitor is bad...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] okantomi:
I'm on Philz, have also tried CWM, different versions. Philz is great. Still no love.

Haha bad flux capacitor...

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] HTCRyan:
Wow. I am at a loss, then. What were you running before coming to Slim?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] okantomi:
@ HTCRyan, This is still an unsolved issue. I was running lorjay's MK4 rom--never touched stock 4.3 so no new bootloader. Before that, I don't even remember, but something on 4.2.

@ Cole Train (good name btw) ##scrtn# doesn't work for me, nor do any other activation codes I've come across. Tried calling CREDO but they were worthless.

It's no big deal, I'm cozy on 4.3 but since I've tasted the joys of the slimkat rom I'm feeling a bit pissed that I can't have it. Having mobile data is too important, especially with unlimited data and good 4G coverage.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] lennykravitz2004:
4/27 Changelog:

Does this mean no more issues with 64gb cards (i.e. no fat32 required)? Currently using 16gb card I bought for your 4.4.2 ROM(s) and didn't think of trying the 64gb card. Not a problem losing what's on it, just more of a PITA to re-load my 64 gb card with my music and videos, etc.

You keep me coming back to this ROM... thanks!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] sleshepic:
One of you running latest can check, or ill have to when I get home, I think I still have my cm kernel in my device tree, which in that case no, id have to switch that to theirs and resync before a new build
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] sliverr7x:
Sorry slesh mines already formatted it would be a while for me to try it sounds way easier to format the SD card then u doing all of that work
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] sleshepic:
No I just meant you could check in the About Phone section to see if its my kernel or cm
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Arjohns:
From the Nexus 5 thread I gathered that the exfat support was simply added for Samsung devices as for the fact that exfat is the native way Samsung does sdcard support. So in short if Slesh adds the Slim kernel back into the build you can use exfat formatted sdcards without issue.

---------- Post added at 05:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:11 PM ----------

Edit: That being said, formatting to fat32 isn't hard either and Slesh tweaked the kernel that is in the ROM. I will say that Kufi from the Slim team has done some serious tweaking to the Slim Kernel, so it's really a matter of if Slesh wants to go through the hassle of adding it back or not. Could always try it and see lol.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] sliverr7x:
Opps brain fart yes its cm lil slow
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Macguyver:
I've been running the latest cm11 nightlies with my SD card formatted to exfat without issue.

Is the battery life really good with the slim kernel?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Arjohns:
I average around 5 hours sot on time with my phone on around 35 hours before having to charge. So in short the Slim kernel has came a long way recently. Kufikugel from the Slim Team has done some amazing work on the kernel IMO.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] HiM@L:
will there be slim 5.0 ? just asking. :D
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Macguyver:
Is been months since I got that kind of SOT. I even bought a new battery last week and it hasn't gotten better. Maybe I'll try slim again. It's driving me nuts only getting 3.5 hours of SOT. It's like I'm driving a suburban with a 10 gallon gas tank.

Tried 3 different ROMs and no difference. I've removed apps, turned off syncing, no luck. It will sit there with nothing running and lose 5-10% an hour.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Scoosch:
I get great battery life with SlimKat right now, but I believe that when you install a new ROM to the device it might take a couple days/reboots/full battery drains and charges before the battery starts working at maximum efficiency for the new ROM/kernel if applicable.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] joseph473:
My first Note 2 suddenly got like that last autumn. Different roms, kernels, batteries did not help. I tried all the battery saving tips; I did not notice a change. My Note 2 took a hard fall and I replaced it with a new one. Battery life is excellent, with stock, rotted, this rom. It could just be your phone. :(
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Macguyver:
I'm pretty sure it is the phone. But I'm off warranty and so they won't replace it.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Macguyver:
So I loaded the latest slim this afternoon and like it. Nice and fast, seems stable. 2 issues I wanted to mention

1) my Spotify offline cache goes to the SD Card and after a reboot I get an SD card isn't found error. However it downloaded the cache and is playing fine in offline mode.

2) the recent apps list you get when you hold the menu button. Is there a clear all button I'm not seeing? If not is there an option to go back to the stock look? I'd just like to be able to clear all my recent apps by hitting one button.

Thanks, any help is appreciated.

Mac.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] nicenice19:
Not using this ROM ATM but I think u can pinch together on the recent to close them all.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] e92dream:
That's correct.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Macguyver:
Perfect. Thank you Gents.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Macguyver:
I just wanted to update and say thanks to slesh and the slim team as well for their work. I've not even been running this ROM for 24 hours yet and have seen a huge improvement in battery life. After 16 hours off the charger I'm sitting at 40% still with over 3 hours SOT. Overnight sitting on my nightstand it lost 1% in 6 hours. That is truly phenomenal. Now I did leave off a couple apps that I suspect may have been also contributing to the drain when I restore my apps and they weren't critical ones. But based on the last 20 hours, along with the new battery I put in 5 days ago things are looking promising. Performance is great to, I'm loving it.

Thanks again.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] sleshepic:
Again I have not tested, as I don't have an N2 to test on, but Here's SlimKat Build 5.1

I updated repos to Slim's Kernel for this run

Suggest Full wipe going between build increments, and using latest Slim Gapps

SlimKat 4.4.2 Build 5.1

http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23487008491963248

Once confirmed booting etc I will update OP
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Scoosch:
After a full wipe, and using the latest Philz and Slim Gapps I have it up and running smooth on my device :) Everything seems to be working at first glance, no problems at all to report so far. Thank you!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Macguyver:
I did the same, full wipe, latest philz and gapps. So far so good.

Thanks Slesh!

Is anybody else's call volume really low on the latest build?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] sliverr7x:
Its always low been that way since kk was released simple fix push down on volume button been that way and seems like its here to stay

Thanks that worked. Not sure why I never noticed before.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] sleshepic:
Its cus apple filed for the intellectual patent on hitting the up volume button to make the volume go up, had to work around it ;)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] sliverr7x:
Good one lol
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] HTCRyan:
Guys, I posted this a little while back, but I actually found the thread that fixed this for me. It is a GREAT workaround. Basically, you set up a "flow" to automatically turn the volume down a click and then up to full volume. It is an awesome app capable of so much more, but it is perfect to fix our volume issues. I do not take credit for any of this, I am only sharing it with you guys,

Thank the OP.

[MENTION=4302068]sleshepic[/MENTION], if you get a few bucks in donations, can this be cooked into the ROM? The Premium version cost me a $2.99, I think. Here is a link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ch.gridvision.ppam.androidautomagic

The best less than $5 I have ever spent on an app...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] sleshepic:
First of all, I would never put a paid version of an app into one of my roms, if I catch you right.

and secondly, nothing I do could ever be based on Donations unfortunately

I've gotten 5 donations since May of 2013 :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] HTCRyan:
There is a free version, I believe. If not maybe something similar. I'll get you a donation after Memorial Day as I am getting married next weekend and that, Jack, is not cheap. I will donate $100 on June 1st, 2014. I hope others will follow suit. You have my word.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] sleshepic:
you just worry about getting married ;) :good:

Thank you though

I was just sayin I couldn't base things off of Donations(nothing would get done lol) or include Paid Apps in a rom

That will always go through Play store or official Developer XDA thread etc
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] :
Anyone having issues with GPS? Maps app can track or locate. Always off route. Been this was for the last three builds. I went through another full wipe today and flashed 5.1. Still GPS is wonky.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] sleshepic:
Have you tried flashing back to TW and getting a lock, then flashing back to Slim? Typically has fixed things since like cm9
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] datdirtyscrew:
Same thing here. Switching back to TW and back to AOSP doesn't help.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] :
Yes. I've done that also. Should've mentioned it before. No luck.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] datdirtyscrew:
Looks like i got it to lock but haven't tested it on the road. I loaded a TW ROM. I entered ##GPSCLRX# and reset GPS. Rebooted. Flashed AOSP ROM. Tested and GPS locked. [emoji106]
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] :
I am going to ask a stupid question because I didn't have any caffeine for the morning yet. Are you doing full wipes between flashes?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] datdirtyscrew:
Yup. Going aosp to tw you have to.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] :
That's what I've been doing. Gonna try stock tw
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Macguyver:
Just wanted to say thanks again for this awesome rom and your continued support slesh. This thing is amazing and quite possibly the best battery life I've ever had on this phone. The standby time has been amazing which is always my biggest concern, I don't need the phone going dead when I'm not using it for a couple hours.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mshnayde:
How do I get the 4g signal again. Came from a 4.3 ROM. ?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] sliverr7x:
Can u explain urself are u looking for the actual 4g icon instead of LTE or the actual LTE internet
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] ThumbDriveCorps:
I just want to say, coming from Resurrection Remix 4.4 current release, I'm really LOVING the battery life using SlimRom 4.2.2...

I chose 4.2.2 ROM because it's the latest firmware that GameCIH3 will run on.

I thought the battery life was going to be the same, but I'm happy to say I was wrong. The battery life using SlimRom is amazing.

I can now use my phone ALL DAY long and only put it on charge when I go to bed at 10:00 PM (CST)...

One thing I would like to change though is the KERNEL. I would like to tweak a few settings on my phone, mainly the volume settings.

What KERNEL is great that I can use with STWEAKS for custom settings.?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mshnayde:
I am not seeing the 4G signal icon and looks like not connecting to the LLC. Do I need to activate something?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] tx_dbs_tx:
Have you tried reflashing the MK4 modem? In network settings make sure it is set for LTE/CDMA. Normally you never have to mess with that setting because it's setup correctly by default. During the initial setup process you have to skip the data activation call which I assume you did. I see no reason why your LTE isn't working. If all else fails, go back to TW rom and do a prl and profile update or dial ##72786# on your dial pad (works on TW roms only) and let it update. Once you get a LTE signal you can flash back to SLIM.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mshnayde:
Switched to LTE/CDMA but the signal is quite a bit worse than what it was on a previous ROM.

Places where I had signal before are now on 3G.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Macguyver:
So I'm still loving this ROM. Battery life again has been phenomenal. Performance is great. However I have had 2 minor hiccups.

1) today I made a call, the screen shut off as soon as I hit the call button before I even had a chance to put it to my head. No big deal, after the call though the screen would not come back on. I had to pull the battery.

2) this has happened twice, after a reboot I go to text or email and the stock keyboard comes up. It works fine but I'm a longtime SwiftKey user and because it has learned how I type over the last 3 years it's much faster for me. What is happening is that SwiftKey is uninstalled after a reboot occasionally. It's not a huge deal, more of a "why did it do that" kind of thing. I am able to quickly restore from titanium, but it's just weird.

Anybody else seen either of these issues. Any help is appreciated, thanks.

---------- Post added at 05:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:40 PM ----------

Did you come from a 4.3 TouchWiz rom? If so your signal bars will show less signal on AOSP based ROMs.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mshnayde:
It does not even show LTE signal though. Says 3g most of the time when it used to be LTE
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] sliverr7x:
I would try when u now for a fact ur in a 4g area turn airplane mode on and off once that has helped me many times running cm11 roms
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] tx_dbs_tx:
What modem are you on right now? Also which version of Slim are you running? I personally get better signal and data speeds running the MA7 modem on MA7 TW ROMS. MK4 modem does not pull a very strong signal and my data disconnects all the time with it. Your problem sounds modem related. I have best results when I flash the modem first then flash the rom. I believe MC2 and MK4 modems are 4.3 Jellybean+ modems.

Try starting over by going back to stock rooted MC2 and make sure you're on the MC2 modem. Then do prl and profile updates. Next wipe all and flash the MK4 modem and then immediately flash Slim KK ROM in the same recovery session. On initial bootup make sure you immediately skip the data call. You might also have to flash the wifi fix using odin on your pc but I assume you've been through all this before. Basically when coming from Android 4.2 to 4.3 you will have to flash the wifi fix using odin on your pc unless you flash the official 4.3 MK4 update or flash MK4 stock ROM somehow.If you are on a 4.2 or earlier version of Android and simply flash a 4.3 or newer version of Android, your wifi will not work. This is why you have to do things in a certain order to get it all working correctly.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mshnayde:
I

Will have to give this a try. Thanks guys. Right now using the mk4 modem and the latest 5-14 version of slim kat.

Also, I flashed the fix for Google camera but still can't get the camera zoom app to work. Any help would be awesome

---------- Post added at 06:15 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:04 AM ----------

This is actually not related to the ROM but wonder if anyone has any idea about why this keeps happening. The power button keeps loosing the setting. Doesn't matter which launcher I am using even with slim pie and etc have to keep pushing which launcher and open it by default option every 5 or 6th time. Really weird and frustrating
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] masber2000:
Fabulous rom.

I'm having an issue with very slow charging. I leave my phone on overnight and it charges less than 10%. I've changed power cords, different electrical outlets, etc. I'm having to leave my phone constantly attached to power in order to do anything. I believe that this only started to happen after I flashed build 5.1 (using Philz). Is there a workaround for this issue?

Thanks
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] pabhouse:
I am having an issue where every time I reboot my phone I lose all the songs out of my play lists. And camera is fc when I go to take a pic. With the cam do I need to just use another app?

Installed the camera fix apk and larger gapp zip from the slim page and that seams to have solved the problems.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Macguyver:
Today I Uninstalled some apps, then went to install a new one and I get "insufficient storage" when it try to install. I have over 7.5 GB of space available on my internal storage.

Update on this. I wiped and cleared the internal storage and re flashed and it's been fine. Must have been a fluke.

Love this ROM, thanks again.

A random thought, I think one of the things I love the most about AOSP ROMs on this phone is the sound quality. Idk what Samsung does to TouchWiz but music always sounds a bit muffled to me with my headphones on TW ROMs. With this ROM and any other AOSP Rom the audio quality is far better IMHO. This rom with the noozxoide EQ and my LG Tone BT headphones sound very nice.
