I think all AOSP roms will drain quicker than TW based roms. At least that is what I have read around here. I never really tried any of the TW based ROMS for comparison.

My battery also drains fairly quickly when the screen is on. It seems to drain at 10%-15% per hour or more when the screen is on and I am not doing anything crazy processor intensive like gaming or using GPS (then it drains MUCH quicker). But overall, I usually average around 2.5-3% drain per hour. I find with about 12 hours of battery time, and 2 hours of screen time, i'll be down to 50%.

I don't know how to help with the drain when the screen is on, but there are things you can do to reduce the drain when not using your phone such as making sure location reporting is turned off.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] otisman:
Now family could you image how much more it will drain with out willl03 tweaks and neak beast cm can be a battery hog alohas family
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Senyaka:
If the screen is taking most of the battery, you could try using screen filter. That will dim the screen down somemore. Also if you are using active display, it will also drain battery a little more. That said, I comfortably get 17+ hours with medium usage with the stock battery and never have I gotten below 50%. That said, every case is different, but as Otisman without the tweaks that Willl03 puts in the battery drain would be even worse.

Hi everybody! I have a question, is it just me or the camera doesn't work? Is there anything I can do to fix it? I need to take pics. :) Thank you
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] The Pinhead:
Camera works great. I would check the md5 and do a clean install.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Senyaka:
Are you getting any errors or is it just not connecting? Also are you using the stock camera or a third party one? I've noticed on the new update to snapchat it will sometimes bork out and say camera not connected ect, but there is actually nothing wrong with it. A reboot normally fixes that issue, but I've reverted back to an older snapchat apk to fix it. Back on topic, as mentioned checking your MD5 is a good idea, and/or doing a fresh install. Also trying clearing the data and cache of the camera and also fix permissions in recovery. :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] willl03:
Just a little post to hype things up a bit, let you know what's going on

We have a 4.3 stable build coming, forked off beanstalk source a bit to give us the best base, pretty much flawless. Quality like we've never seen since 4.2.2 ultimate taken even higher

And the big news is our 4.4 experience kit, it will come as a flashable package and give us the KitKat experience, apps and theme system wide

Keep refreshing that page tomorrow :)

I would go with Will's 1st recommendation of a fresh install. That way you don't have anything leftover if you do the dirty dirty, and end up trying to figure out what went wrong if it does, then having to reflash again.

One word: AWESOME!

thanks will!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Senyaka:
Tested this out for a little bit, and I have to say very smooth! Very smooth indeed!

The main functions work:

Calls work, people reported I sounded fine, and I could hear them no worries either.

SMS and MMS work really well with both the messaging app and Hangouts.

Browsing is no issues with both Chrome and Built in browser

No dropped signals in either wifi or 4g/3g network

The KitKat experience flashable makes everything look just awesome.

Rom is super smooth, fast and slick. No stutters.

Active Display works great. No issues with the senor

All the tweaks and mods in the interface section work.*with the exception of the backlights but everyone should know why that is by now and the various workarounds*

What doesn't work:

Only one bug I have encountered so far. If choosing to make a video from either Hangouts or regular SMS app, the gallery will force close. Even after wiping dalvik and cache and fixing permissions, it will still do so.

Thanks again for another solid piece of work. This will be fun to use as my daily as always. Good thing I've got 2 Note 2's. I can curb my flashing addiction with my second one. Haha

Okay, so I managed to replicate this lots of extra files in the gallery. And you are correct you cannot you delete the VR theme folder when it is like this. However, if you move any pics you want to keep and files from the internal memory to your external SD card. Then boot into recovery and just wipe internal memory. No need to reflash anything.

After doing this, the VR theme folder will be gone and your gallery will be clean again. This will also mean you have nothing in your internal storage either so reinstall the apps or use TB again to restore everything.

I can confirm the video camera issue. Pulled gallery2.apk from last ROM release and works fine now. Otherwise everything else seems to be going along swimmingly. Love the look of Kitkat and the googlenow page on the launcher is awesome.

[MENTION=535343]all[/MENTION]. I'm using hangouts now for my sms which i've not used before (not sure if it was even an option before), but when I get an sms and I open the hangouts app it doesnt clear it from the notification bar or dropdown. What am I doing wrong? :)

Derp slipped in the build, will release a quick fix tonight

for camera and clock

About Hangouts, works fine here

Sounds like a proximity sensor issue

And guys if you get any issue let us know I'd really like to clean things in that version. We'll probably keep that base for 4.3, until 4.4 is here
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] mashuto:
Will, thanks for this last release. So far it seems great, stable and runs quite well!

A couple issues that I still have remaining. Active Display seems to change a bit between each version, in the last version, my proximity sensor didn't work at all, which was actually fine, of course, that meant that the screen would still turn on for an active display notification even if the phone was in my pocket. I also have an issue where if Active Display is on and I reboot the phone, it stops working until I go into settings, disable, then re-enable it. I like the feature, but I have turned it off right now because I find it annoying to have to go and re activate it all the time.

Will, I know that you are not directly developing it, and maybe this is something to be brought up to the actual developers, but a fix for it on reboot would be great, and I would love to see an option to use the proximity sensor if we wanted to or not.

Another thing I would mention is my compass. It is crazy. It spins a lot when I am not spinning my phone. I know there was a solution a while back, but I think its mostly a temporary fix, cause sometimes my compass works fine, other times its crazy. Not sure if this is something going on with the hardware in my phone or something in software, but wanted to bring it up that its still an issue.

Also, I went back to Nova, the new launcher is cool and has some nice effects, but unless I am missing something, it doesn't look like it does anything that Nova doesn't (except having a dedicated Google Now Page and some snazzy effects), and of course I have tons more customization ability in Nova.

Keep up the great work Will!

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Srikar_NBK:
I'm not sure if my issue is related to this ROM or not, but I believe it is. After installing this ROM, whenever I restart my phone, it never comes up. It comes up fine on Touchwiz based ROMs. Anyone else having a similar issue?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] willl03:
Tbh Active Display is a shaky feature. Great idea but it's implementation will never be as clean as we see in the Moto X, it comes ''as is''. I'd prefer if the source moved in the way of optimisation and bug fixing instead of bringing tons semi buggy of new features every build, that's why I reverted a lot of stuff in our last version. For example, multi window broke halo and floating windows, not worth the trade. Features are often a good idea but how they work and their side effect make them less desirable. With more time and knowledge I'd like to make my own source

About compass, you can calibrate it with Gps Status app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.eclipsim.gpsstatus2&hl=en

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Srikar_NBK:
Sorry for not making myself clear enough the first time around. The phone doesn't come up after a reboot when this ROM has been installed. It stays on the initial 'Samsung Galaxy Note II' without even getting into the Bean Stalk boot animation.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] willl03:
I guess you flashed another kernel, or make sure to clean install (wipe data)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Srikar_NBK:
Running the stock kernel and did a clean install. I was able to reproduce it twice today morning, installed this ROM after a clean wipe(including wiping data). The ROM works fine with no issues. But, when I need to reboot my phone, it stays at the 'Note II' screen. Strangely tried a TW ROM like Jedi, it reboots fine. As much as I like this ROM, I have to force myself to TW due to this weird issue.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Senyaka:
I would also do a full internal wipe my friend. Coming from a Touchwiz based Rom this has happened to me as well with other AOSP Roms. I would recommend using TWRP and wipe cache/dalvik/data/internal 3 times just to be super clean then flash the Rom, gapps, kitkat experience and what ever kernel you use. Like willl03 said though, sometimes using another kernel will cause the Rom of just hang.
