Hello all

Im using latest build , i have 2 questions.

1) With spirit Fm Radio headset autput is okay , but with speaker the output is too low. The developer said " Some ALSA controls have different defaults on this ROM (audio library/HAL)." Anything you can do about it ?

2) I have a little wake lag , can i solve this with flashing another kernel ? Which kernel you guys recommend , i prefer smoothnes , battery life isnt too important for me
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] xantrk:
Oh i just rebooted cuz im seeing artifacts in Twitter app , den i started to see them in UI , statusbar etc. Its annoying , what can cause this ? Tried gpu rendering on and off still same. Its looks like to me a vsync like issue
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] rq005:
It would be great to share experiences with different kernels... Default kernel is stable but battery life is not the best.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] numerouknow:
you may try thor kernel or devil kernel. i've had very good battery life and performance with these kernels.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] Trances01:
what about Perseus kernel ? is it better than thor ?
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] dynamic503:
Devil.kernel is your best choice
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] numerouknow:
perseus kernel is for sammy firmware based roms. it wont work with aosp/cm/aokp/pa.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] rq005:
Anyone tried NEAK or AGNI?
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] steijn0:
Dear tilak I'm aware of that ran into this with bevigilant but I meant around the same time not at the same time:)
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] Reynaldi:
Does anyone facing this problem? i can send file with bluetooth but can't receive file. i'm using the latest update of this rom (13 july)
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] UtkarshGupta:
tilak, why don't you join official pa host http://download.paranoidandroid.co/roms/

there is a maintainer sign up. you can upload your builds there itself.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] steijn0:
Hmm what tweaks are you using kernel-wise? Looking to improve battery life!
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] numerouknow:
m happy with the battery life i get with default frequencies & voltages so i've left everything as it is. no kernel tweaks.

currently m using devil kernel and i get around 30hrs battery life (6hrs screen on time) with wifi/data switched on for most part n thats more than enuf for me.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] dzontra11:
I can't received any calls. known issue?
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] tilaksidduram:
I have already signed up for it when they were taking a request when the pa dev team was working on halo feature. I tried to sign up again today but the page won't load. Will try again tomorrow.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] dzontra11:
When we can expect update and fix for APN crash?
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] UtkarshGupta:
The page would load for me. I didn't try entering in my details though.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] tilaksidduram:
I have already fixed it. I will release the ROM tomorrow morning. I am currently testing it. This update will have all the latest updated sources from pa & cm. The changelog is already posted on pa Google + page.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] Chileno4Live:
Do you guys also experience a high drain in battery? It's saying that Android OS is the reason. Do you guys know how to fix it? Here's a picture.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] dzontra11:
Unfortunately, yes but you can try with Devil kernel.

New Rom Update

New Rom update released..updated from the July 22nd sources. Lots of changes and enhancements to HALO. Read the OP for the change logs.

I have created a new Community in G+ named as Paranoid Android for Note II. I will be using that to post updates on a regular basis as well as this forum. I have also updated the change logs in there.

https://plus.google.com/communities/112507607742650442080

Important update in this Rom : I have reverted the BT crash issue. Since this was causing the APN setting page to crash. I heard from some user that their 3G/2G is not working because of the APN crash issue. That has been fixed now.

Happy flashing!!!!!
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] dzontra11:
Yeah APN crash is fixed and finally my 3g works . tnx for your hard work pal.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] reddevilmt:
Which camera and gallery need I delete?

Thanks...
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] tilaksidduram:
The first camera app is the stock camera that has been build from CM 10.1 and PA sources. The second one is the camera app that i pulled out from the Android 4.3 build. Both of them works fine, never had an issue.

It is left to you to choose which one you want to keep.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] jallenhayslett:
I'm not sure if anyone has mentioned this. The text on HALO notifications moves off-center upwards whenever you change HALO's size or the system DPI.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] neverthemore:
Or, perhaps, keep them both!
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] tilaksidduram:
The HALO Speech bubble move up when you when you slide your finger sides ways that is new change. Earlier when you slide, the speech bubble will get covered by your finger and now that has been fixed. See the latest change logs it is called out there.

- speech bubbles make way when you task, your thumb won't cover them
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] _delice_doluca_:
So the BT car crashes are back?
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] neverthemore:
Anyone?!
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] jallenhayslett:
I understand that, but I'm not talking about the bubble, I'm talking about the text inside the bubble.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] _delice_doluca_:
I don't know what APN is :) and I have never used it I guess. But I am using BT car connetcion a lot. So is there at least a temprorary fix (as simple as flashing something or changing things with root explorer as an average user) until the new build arrives?
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] Stempanssi:
Is the exynos sources yet open source? If not how much will it decrease performance and in what?
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] neddie:
Stability and camera...camera is indeed really ****ty compared to a stockrom.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] xantrk:
am i the oonly one having graphical problems :\ mostly on scrolling while popup menus and twitter. Its like tearing.Also exists on cm10.1 . I need an answer is it a common problem in all 4.2 roms ?
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] dzontra11:
What you mean about camera?
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] neddie:
I mean rhat the quality of the image you take on a samsung stock rom is far better than on any aosp rom. And the actual app is way way better aswell config wise. But on the other hand you are forced to stockrom :)
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] _delice_doluca_:
Everyone has that problem, so do not worry. It comes with the latest GPU drivers. They come as blobs so no one, including CM team, can modify or optimise them. They just take the newest drivers blob and put it in the ROM. It is the fastest and the best but has that glitches on 2D vertical operations unfortunately.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] rq005:
What if you force 2D gpu rendering? would it help?
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] _delice_doluca_:
No. Because the problem is in the GPU side. Forcing GPU rendering means every 2D image or animation monitored on the screen is created by GPU even though the software tells CPU to do it. Since it is a rendering problem of GPU, it would not solve the problem.

Only thing that would have solved the problem would be a option to "Force CPU rendering" :) which does not exist (and useless actually, Android has to leave GPU rendering optional because many phones do not have strong enough GPUs to handle even simple 2D operations like scrolling in facebook of twitter.. However, GPU rendering and sharing the burden between GPU and CPU is the reason why iPhones are so smooth and their CPUs are enough even with single cores)
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] xantrk:
Can i do something about it ? Like downloading an old version , but im afraid about losing halo. :\ Time will be the medicine i think
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] _delice_doluca_:
As long as I know most of the UI (and many more things) are written and optimised for the current drivers. I remember when we first get an update over the TW ones and people wanted to flash them into their Sammy based 4.1.2 ROMs but the devs said TouchWiz would not work then because TW was written and optimised for the old drivers. That meant a simple upgrade of driver was not enough (and even worse).

I guess the only solution to avoid the graphical issues -which we actually should not make that big deal about- is to go back to a Sammy ROM.

BTW I remember having a "flip action" section under the phone setting in CM 10.1.. Why does it not exist in PA? I thought PA was simply everything of CM 10.1 + more?

And one more thing; how can I edit power menu? Again, it was under the system section of settings in CM 10.1...
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] Winflo:
Oh man I just killed PA :/

I was in Developer options to turn on Usbdebugging , there was an option to change screen resolutions(Secondary display Resolutions).

I thought Great downlampling letz try it.

What happens is that PA starts to lockscreen and chrashes no way to be fast enough to change the options :(.

Is there any way to change just settings , i am recovering a nandroid backup right now but its version 3.65 :/ ?

Could you disable this option in the next version if it is not working for other ones to ?

Greetings,

Flo ;)

EDIT : Nandroid backup didnt restore settings :/ I had to restore data too :( but it works now :)
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] Stempanssi:
Has there been any talk lately about the open sourceness?
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] dzontra11:
Camera seems better to me....
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] neverthemore:
PA 3.69 update

PA 3.69 is out! Just downloaded and flashed it.

Just to let you know!

Direct download
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] dzontra11:
..AND?Impresions?
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] unubtanium:
Downloading and will test if it fixes my bluetooth problem and report back :good:
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] Winflo:
Ehm not rly i still got this strange bug on 2.68 :)
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] dzontra11:
New update works better for me. Faster and smoother but have a problem with changing DPI for some apps like tapatalk or Facebook.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] tilaksidduram:
BT problem is still there with build 3.69. I am still working on it. I will let you all know once I fix it.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] unubtanium:
Great News and thanks for letting me know.

As i just flashed it 1 hour ago and have not had time to test it. So saved me that time.

:good:
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] qubanaso:
will you be building a 4.3 aosp now that the source is out?
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] shingers5:
Think PA guys are working hard to implement the new code and all the changes. We might see a private beta period for a while before being made public. This latest build is very good and I just wanted to express my gratitude to the OP. Halo is definitely improved and heading in the right direction
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] Mashari_F:
how to disable on screen buttons? and how to change the view in settings?

the rom is great btw
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] Hatem basha:
halo

I cant see the option to change the color of halo in the new build 3.69 where is it?

and one more thing, I want to backup the all of my accounts under the settings tab. Titanium backup does not store all of my apps data especially twitter is there another app that do that???
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] neddie:
Set navbar to 0%
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] Chileno4Live:
I would like to thank the PA guys and the OP for this rom! I've flashed RedPill and my battery life significantly improved. Furthermore, I still have not experienced any problems. Thank you so much!
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] jallenhayslett:
I can't get Halo to follow any whitelist/blacklist rules. I even switched from P.A.C. to pure PA and did a full wipe thinking it would help, but it didn't. Is this a common problem?
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] colonelbassel:
navigation bar

Hello guys, is there any way to disable the navigation bar? i clicked on the hybrid properties and it appeared and now i don't know how to remove it
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] shingers5:
Interface then drag nav bar slider to 0 then apply and its gone.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] shingers5:
Right I am having cam issues. Take one PIC OK then it freezes and I can't do anything else. If I exit and return I get error message can't connect to camera. Only a reboot fixes but then when I take another PIC same result. Any feedback is appreciated and if its already been addressed then apologies.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] DirtyHarrx:
Should find its way into the FAQ. This is THE most frequently asked question by every new user who is too lazy to check through the settings.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] _delice_doluca_:
Could any of you succesfully enable "auto color" for any app (does not matter if it is a system or user app) on any version of PA? I have never get to work it. It disables itself automatically right after I close the setting window and nothing changes.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] shingers5:
I have it ticked on and in some apps it does change even my statusbar icons change too. I have never chosen the PA setting for per app colour just left it ticked on as default
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] colonelbassel:
thanks dude:) That what i call a really hidden option LOL

---------- Post added at 07:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:24 PM ----------

i did saw this when i searched for navigation here but didn't manage to find the settings (that should appear while swiping right... i know that searching is much more easier that posting and waiting for a reply.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] _delice_doluca_:
Whenever I tick auto color for any app on both the Hybrit Settings menu from the notification bar or from the settings menu>app section, nothing happens.. Could you tell a few of the apps you could turn the auto color on so I could try them and see?
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] Petteri:
Could it be the accu getting very hot on latest 3.69 Version!? Just tried out (formaly ProBam) and it seems to be very much overheatet!

Is this Kernel!? What other Kernel is supportet!? Most important is Batterie Life! :)
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] DirtyHarrx:
Wasn´t meant to criticize you, just a general suggestion to add this to the FAQ as this question pops up every 2 pages or so.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] numerouknow:
i think u r referring to the pa colors option. i am currently using it and it works. i've even tried changing the status/nav bar colors per app and can confirm that the color changes do stick.

edit: i just realized you weren't referring to pa colors in the first place. which makes my above post irrelevant. sry.

---------- Post added at 11:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:34 PM ----------

i never had any such overheating problems.

you may try thor kernel or devil kernel...imho, they are both very good in terms for striking the right balance between battery life and performance.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] shingers5:
Well its random lol and like i said i dont enable that option. Its enabled by default in interface settings. I dont really like that PA colors options but on some apps it randomly pops up. Its really weird man

Heating issues are mainly linked to modem used. There is a thread with modem recommended to get rid of heating issues. No heating issue here and using an older modem. Haven't tried any of the new Mxxxx modems from recent 4.1.2 stock builds
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] jallenhayslett:
I just want whitelist/blacklist functionality...
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] :
3.69 or 3.68

do I have to download pa_n7100-3.69-20130723.zip 3.69 or 3.68 version

thanks
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] tilaksidduram:
Yes i will be building 4.3 when the pa sources are ready. Currently the

Devs are busy updating the repo with 4.3 sources. It is not yet ready to build 4.3 for non nexus devices.

CM team has updated cm10.2 to all their repo and working on build issues. So we need to wait for a few more days or hours until the build issues are sorted out.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] tilaksidduram:
I will update FAQ section in the OP on how to disable the navigation soft buttons
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] tilaksidduram:
Download 3.69 dated 7/23. This is the latest build.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] Petteri:
Good morning! i just tried some things in Settings :) and Statusbar is away now! :) Which was the point i can restatr Status Bar!? Couldn`t find it now...
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] tilaksidduram:
I think u enabled full screen pie mode. To get your status bar bar, press and hold the power button and select full screen pie. This will disable pie mode and u will get ur status bar back.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] Petteri:
Sure i did, but when i do like you says (i tried a lot of times before) the Statusbar will not come back! :(

there is only full screen without status bar!

So my onlky chance is Hybrid Settings getting into Tablet Mode, like you see on pictures here, first is APEX without and second is with Tablet Mode
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] _delice_doluca_:
Status and Navigation bars are same in tablet mode :)
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] Manu1001:
Updated from 3.68, I obtained a Launcher error in every boot. No way, only to take off battery to enter recovery (wipe chache and Dalvik cache does not work).

Now, factory resseting... :(

Thanks for your work anyway. It's awesome. :)

---------- Post added at 11:07 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:57 AM ----------

Same issue after factory resseting! I connect to my Google Account and... crash. :(

---------- Post added at 11:21 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:07 AM ----------

Trying to going back to 3.68 :rolleyes:
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] Manu1001:
Same problem. Damn it! :crying:

:confused:

---------- Post added at 12:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:27 PM ----------

Solved! For some strange reason, the launcher is configured to 0 dpi... :eek:

Entering in Hybrid Properties, and setting the preset to Stock, the system works again.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] sushi_kun:
On the 2nd to the last build we had the option to change the color of the halo button, why take it out?
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] tilaksidduram:
It will be added in the next build that I will release tomorrow.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] kingkij:
I downloaded 3.69 using goomanager. can i flash it using goomanager instead of booting into philtz cmw??
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] tilaksidduram:
U can flash it using goo manager or booting into recovery . Goo manager actually boots ur phone into recovery and then performs the rom update. So either way is fine.

[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] steijn0:
hi guys there used to be an asdk controller or something like that preinstalled... anyone know where to get it...?

I also think i found a new issue... i wiped it completely and after that installed the newest build + gapps... it wasn't able to connect to 3g afterwards i flashed the pre-latest build and dirty flashed the new build + gapps and now it randomly freezes
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] Petteri:
Hi, just have some Problems after installing last update: No sound on Music, Youtube crashes all the time! Anyone other has same!?
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] afro972:
same problem
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] tilaksidduram:
I am aware of the camera crash issue. I am looking into it. Maybe I have mistakenly added an old version of the Android 4.3 camera app. I will correct it and release an updated build later today.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] tilaksidduram:
No problem here all working fine. After you do a dirty flash make sure you wipe cache and dalvik cache and then reboot.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] afro972:
Ok sorry for asking again.

Just for the record: I have solve this issue by deleting sur gallery apk before flashing, and install another one from probam, working perfectly so far ...
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] Petteri:
I done 2 times... i always clean cache and dalvik! :) but now it works! Great.... good work....
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] mertemur:
when will you update android 4.3?
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] shingers5:
Thanks for that mate but still need to sort why included gallery.apk doesnt work. I like to use things as stock so I welcome the OP fixing the issue
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] SHouSHax:
Lol, where are the lockscreen slider's shortcuts ?!?!?!
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] Hatem basha:
I hate it when I make a titanium backup and forget to move it to my external disk. AHHHHHHHHHH
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] jallenhayslett:
That's the very reason I changed my TB backup folder to my external and made a zip with just TB in it to flash after a wipe. Flash that zip, and BAM, TB is back with all my settings intact and pointing directly to the backup folder on my external.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] Hatem basha:
Wow that awesome how did you do it?

I did find media sync for TB that can sync my file with dropbox, and go backup that can also do the same job. but these cost some bucks so I m thinking about it.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] Petteri:
He means that he done Titanium Backup and copied the folder with all backuped apps onto his external Sd Card in phone, then he changes the Backup folder under Titanium Settings into the new one (external SD), saved these new settings and then he creates update.zip specially for Titanium which can be flashed after Full Wipe from external Sd... that`s the way i work since years and that works great, only 20 minutes and everything is installed again after full wipe! :D

There’s a bug i need to report, halo's acting weird, instead of opening up a "windowed" app when selected from a halo notification, it opens the whole screened app. Any other users having this?
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] neverthemore:
Yes, I've seen this with facebook app.
