[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] G1Master:
Aloha Beanstalk Family!

I absolutely love the New Halo, works 100% better than before. Scroll/List animations are amazing! Full Screen Beanstalk bootup is Sexy. Themes seem to cover a lot more Ui than before major plus for me. Most if not all extra settings work besides the back light, seems to not want to stick at all after a minute or so.

It's been a while family since I've posted anything and thats mainly because this Rom is truly a masterpiece and a work of art. So in short I my addiction of crack flashing has been cured......until recently.

I've been running the latest 4.3 release since the 5th and have been dealing with some annoying issues but I figured that my phone is still trying to "settle" in the new android version but after 12 days of use I am still finding my phone dying incredibly fast with most apps being "greenified" with the greenify app. Last night I charged my phone to 100% conducted a reboot right after (not entirely sure why I reboot my phone once its charged but I do), phone still at 100%, went to bed, woke up at 4:50 am to find my phone at 70%. What's even more weird the day before I was just praising on how well the Neak Kernel is performing, I got almost 3 days worth of battery and about 3 hours of straight gaming with 60% brightness. Weird huh? So as you can imagine I've had at least half those days where my phone is charging and recycling so it cant be "settling" issue.

According to Better Battery Stats, CPU Spy Plus, Desk Clock Battery extension and with the built in battery monitor my phone is going into deep sleep as soon as the phone was off the charger or screen off. So 30% lost over 7 hours in "deep sleep".

Texts- My texts have seemed to be coming in with a delay and sending out with a delay. Meaning I would send something at 16:00 but itll stay in the "pending" state for a random amount of time. Or someone will send me something but I wouldn't get it for X amount of minutes to hours. To help remedy this, I'll enable "Data" and do something using "Data" e.g: Play Store or quick Google Search. Then i'll finally get the "toast message" that says "XXX-XXX-1234 received text". At times my phone wont even notify me on new texts or if a messaged failed to send.

Same goes with MMS "picture messages", In the past releases of android I could send and received MMS's with or without the data being on. Now if I dont have it on my phone wont even notify me if a MMS has failed or did not send. It'll just be a blank text with no recipients. In the past I guess android was designed to enable data once it knows a MMS is incoming then once it receives it, it would turn off? Not sure, I just know for a fact that MMS does not work the same as it did with 4.2.2.

Random reboots- Phone seems to rebooting when data is being "overwhelmed" or "overloaded". E.g. Pandora app, designed to stream music right? Screen on or off. Well at times music will be streaming then it will stop, next thing I see is the "Samsung Galaxy Note II" splash screen. Pandora app may be the issue and may not be compatible with 4.3 yet. I am just posting my beliefs on my findings.

Scroll/List/Long Web Pages- I also get random reboots when lets says an app like "Tapatalk" where a huge list of threads/forums are on one screen, If I were to try scroll down the page/list quickly it may freeze up then reboot. This issue here has been rare for me but definitely annoying.

Kernel- Not sure if its Neak or the Rom itself but when I go to wake up my phone the time on the lock screen is always off, now it does fix itself almost instant but every time I still catch the time that was displayed before it updated. I use to always run AOSP/Twiz roms with the Devil Kernel but since the latest release seems to revolved around the Neak Kernel I figured "why not?". Now is there any drawbacks in changing kernels now? I felt like the Devil Kernel was giving me 2-3 days with 4-5 hours of screen time.

I hate coming on here just to "whine" and "complain" about something free even if I donated, its just not my nature. I just want that 4.2.2 Ultimate stability/performance back. I am more than likely going to go back to the 4.2.2 version just because all these issues are not even existent on that version.

Will and Scott, both of ya'll are doing amazing work with Android and I could only wish I had the knowledge you guys have so I could give something back to the family.

Thank you to all the testers as well.

Huge and obnoxious /Rant is now over.

Thanks Again,

Sam

Edit:

So after posting this Will releases a new version! Way to go! Freaking Love you! (no homo) So this post may have to change once I give it a go.
