[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] dimex:
Maybe it's common sense, but I decided to add a 5 second delay to the "Set On Boot" in Trickster Mod, and the phone isn't locking up upon reboot any longer (haven't had it running very long though). I'm now clocked to 2GHz on Morphic's kernel.

pyraxiate, few questions.

1. At this moment I'm running Malicious and I applied the ext2 mod. If I go into FX Explorer, it's showing system as ext2 but data/cache as ext4 still. Shouldn't it all be showing as ext2?

2. I'm guessing that I could also reflash my Jedi ROM that I used for awhile, apply the ext2 mod, and then flash the ext2 optimized Trinity kernel I'm currently running with the Malicious ROM, and I'd have an entirely ext2 Jedi ROM?

3. Reading through the threads, people are saying that SaberKernel is optimized for ext2 as well. So I could follow #2 but leave the Saber Kernel as is, and I'd have an entirely ext2 Jedi ROM/Saber?

Finally,

4. I'm a little confused with the ext2 showing as ext4. Why on some people spreadshots is system/data/cache all showing as ext2, but I followed the exact same directions and only my system is ext2?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Admiral Sir Manley Power:
Try applying the voltage settings first. Then do the over clock bit
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] dimex:
I did all the CPU voltages prior to the OC'ing. Would work when immediately applied but would lock up on reboot. Delaying the Set On Boot by 5 seconds was the only thing that worked.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Admiral Sir Manley Power:
Good to know. Thank you for the info I'll add it to the instruction
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] gonnapushthru06:
U can just flash this thats what I did when I was running this rom its a 5x5 thouchwiz

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mrcartagena2000:
no workie

flashed following instructions and no worky coming from milestone 2 rom if it helps code 7 thanks for your work
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] xxBrun0xx:
I'm having the same issue here. Performed a clean install and followed the directions in the OP to the T and data/cache are both showing up as EXT4 :S
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] dwitherell:
Are you using a TMo T889? If so, you'll want to reflash your recovery as that is what is causing the assert error that generates the code 7 (most likely anyway)

I believe that was the intention - the included kernel was modified to mount /system as ext2 while booted (slight difference from the OPs other thread where that is no longer the most recent case), and the flashing of the rom itself ONLY formats /system as ext2. From the OP:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mrcartagena2000:
recovery

Yes i am using sght889 and reflashed bot cwm as well as twr same issue and if you are curious I have been flashing since 08 but this one has me stumped thank you for the response! :laugh::laugh:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] dwitherell:
Sorry I didn't mean to imply any sort of noobishness or anything :) Usually the status 7 errors come from an assert failure, and the most common are device checks built into the updater-scripts. The device checks use info within the recovery itself, which is sometimes where the problem comes from - but not this time it seems :)

In the output screen area when you flash, is there any other information provided? You could grab the recovery.log as well for details on where the flash went awry - I think it's in /tmp or possibly /cache/recovery... can't remember offhand - I tend to just look around for it via adb when I have an issue like this lol
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mrcartagena2000:
You did not imply i just noticed it is usually noob error lol so just had to get that out of the way thanks again:laugh:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] hiperglyde:
I thought they were pretty much the same aside from modem?

What differences would prevent this from working if you dont mind the question?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mrcartagena2000:
In my experience it is simply this,Flashing a non specific carrier rom in your case at&t you need to have that carriers radio flashed. If you do not do this or try it and fail monkey's come out from under your bed and brick your phone. Most roms with the (aroma) installer let you choose the modem. Hope this helps also maybe something to do with the kernal as well :confused:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] xxBrun0xx:
I've actually figured this out. So there is no compatibility issues whatsoever between ATT roms and Tmobile roms, as roms (for the most part) don't include radios anymore (people with bad downloads were corrupting their radio partitions, which I do not believe can be undone).

The issue is that this rom (for some reason) checks the version of your TWRP. If you go to the Tmobile Note 2 recovery section and flash the Tmobile TWRP (which is identical to the ATT twrp except for the device signature), this will install just fine.

That being said, I've never heard of a rom checking your device like that. It would be a way of idiot-proofing your rom if it only verified that you had a non-N7100, but all other Note 2's are identical, so this seems like it's more trouble than it's worth.

THAT being said, why the HELL did XDA think it would be a good idea to separate the Note 2 forums in the way they did? I have to have 5 different Note 2 indexes favorited and have to check each of those 5 separate forums for roms/news/etc. Causes so much confusion with new N2 users it's not even funny.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Admiral Sir Manley Power:
Bro, look I’m not trying to be rude. But you didn’t figure this out. It is not that simple. There are other things in a ROM that require editing that are NECESSARY for you to run this ROM and have it functional in every way and not cause headaches for you and the carrier….

There are network access points, lines in CSC files, xml files, so many things… porting a ROM from another carrier isn’t as simple as flashing an ATT note 2 recovery to your T-mobile note 2.

Please stop posting in this thread if you are going to spread misinformation. I don’t want people here from ATT forums asking “how come this doesn’t work on my device??? Why doesn’t my data work??? Why can’t I send text messages???? Why am I getting random network issues etc etc etc???”

The reason is because this ROM is NOT COMPATIBLE with your ATT note 2.

I mean do you really think that if it was that simple that TWRP and many others would just integrate all of their note 2 recoveries into one?

Or don't you think XDA would have 1 forum rather than 4 or 5? There are reasons they do this.

Go ahead and flash this ROM on your ATT note II... and watch all the problems and issues you'll create for yourself.

Anyways.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] kintwofan:
Sir Manley, that is correct (do you know the reference) I wanted to add that for people who think it's just flash and go. There is a very great write up about this. It may work, but causes a lot of problems in the long run. Check the thread below

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=40201082
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] xxBrun0xx:
Now, maybe there's something special about the t-mobile note 2 because I've been able to run any att ROM, att recoveries, and att radios with 0 issues. I am using the phone on straight talk att. Haven't ever had an issue. Just recently started using t-mobile roms and after simply flashing a t-mobile recovery, this ROM worked 100%. Again, I'm no expert and I'm not trying to be rude, just seemed to be an easy fix.

Anyways, thanks for the awesome ROM. This thing is right up there with jdevil as the smoothest experience I've ever had on the note 2. And despite being over clocked to 2ghz, never had a lock up or reboot. Nice job!

Edit: I take that back, not all is perfect. Tsm parts doesn't seem to work completely. General and device work, lockscreen force closes, status bar and miscellaneous open, but making changes doesn't seem to do anything. Just so you know :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mrcartagena2000:
Excellent reference! Top marks full scholarship!

Me too. These 4.3 builds just aren't cutting it yet so if I gotta go back to tw I need some pep in my step. Keep up the great work!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Renzo88:
Only issues I'm facing is the MW, its not dividing the screen for the 2 apps, the apps take the hole screen instead.

Also, can the s pen be added?

It is a solid ROM nonetheless, thank you for your time and great work. Awesome, simple theme!

How did you lose it in the first place? In any case, just download carrier changer and type it back in. I remember seeing the download link somewhere in the General subsection.

Is there anyway to get samsung keyboard from touch wiz on the google edition roms
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Itaintrite:
I took it out of the box and noticed the problem right away. I can't replicate it since the flickering is very random and very quick. Anybody else experiencing this problem?
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] WilliamG:
Turn off your auto brightness in the settings. Mine does the same thing. I've never seen an Android device with smooth brightness adjustments. My HTC One was pretty awful, too.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] sus4ntoh:
Please don't tell me the 2013 suffers the same fate as the first version. My main reason why I want to upgrade mine to 2013 because mine flickers if I am in a dark room.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Itaintrite:
Holy crap I turned it off and now its flickering constantly at about 30%. And the full screen blackout flickering still persists. I think this one gotta go back.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] sus4ntoh:
Try set it above 30% of total brightness. That did the trick on my first gen.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] znibbor:
Here's my post from Reddit...

Purchased 2013 Nexus 7 on Thursday and have run into a concerning issue.

When the screen's brightness is set to less than approximately 50%, I've noticed considerable screen flickering and less occasionally the screen goes black for half a second. I thought originally the problem was unique to chrome but I am noticing the issue system wide now. The tablet is set to manual brightness control, as well.

Is anyone else experiencing this? Can anyone shed some light on what I'd causing this phenomenon and/or how to fix it?
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Itaintrite:
This is exactly the same problem I have. Will order another one from a different reseller to make sure different batch. It happened as soon as I took the tablet out of box so I don't think its a software problem.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] blackhand1001:
I don't have this issue on my new Nexus. I did have it with the first generation model.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] bracketologist:
I had some flickering as well, but it was intermittent. I read somewhere about what people may have done for the problem with the original N7 and one of the suggested solutions was to turn off Wifi Optimization. I did that...and mysteriously, I haven't suffered from the flickering issue since. I'm not exactly sure what one may have to do with the other, but it has worked for me as far as I can tell.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] paulhoop:
I have seen it as well only on auto dim. Looks like a bad proximity sensor. But it comes and goes. Some apps worse than others. Tapatalk being one. Tried the WiFi trick above, doesn't work for me.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Itaintrite:
Don't ever attempt to set brightness to below 30% if you're experiencing this problem. I did just to see how it'd go, didn't go well. Screen flickered a bit then went black (or just really really dark). Had to reboot. Staying above 50% brightness solves the constant flickering problem, but I still get that millisecond screen blackout. Hopefully second one coming from Amazon is better than this. No dead pixel though, so that's a good start.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Itaintrite:
Got a new unit and problem does not exist, so old one was definitely defective. Screen does not flicker when set at even 20%.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] corythug:
Mine does none of this, mad dim or auto dim there is no flicker. Perhaps anyone with this problem should exchange asap.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] warstalker:
I have the screen flicker issue when I enable auto brightness. If I disable auto brightness and leave brightness level above 30% then I am good to go. I am not satisfied with this workaround so I am going to try to get an exchange at Best Buy as soon as they have more in stock.

It is strange last night, I manually slid the brightness slider below 30% and it was able to dim properly whereas it would in my case go completely dark. But as soon as I tried the auto brightness, it would start to act up again. It gets to the point where I have to try to turn the screen off and on several times before I can even get a chance to disable the auto brightness again.

I am glad to hear that this issue is limited and that I can get a good unit and that this issue is hardware related and not software.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] CaliTilt:
I have return my first Nexus because of bad flickering above 50%. It seems like a senor issue. With the second Nexus, I am using it in a dark room tonight on auto brightness without any flickering issue.

Experienced it on my first original Nexus 7, replaced it and the next didn't have it. Our new 2013 Nexus 7 doesn't seem to be doing it at all. Like others have said, it seems to be an issue with just some of them, hopefully replacing it works for those experiencing it here as well...

Experienced it for first time today. Toggled auto brightness on and off and it stopped. Definitely something to do with sensor.

Anyone notice any lines across the screen on the kind of semi dark theme throughout the os (settings menu)? More shows up if the screen is maxed and it does show subtly when dim. Might need to exchange again.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] jeffc83:
I have the flicker but it only happens with Words with Friends...uninstalled and havent had the flicker since. I wonder if it is app related.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Itaintrite:
Guys, it's most definitely hardware problem so I recommend exchanging your unit. The new one has been perfect since I got it last week. I can go down to 10% brightness and screen would not flicker. And no annoying half-sec blackout either.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] :
Started seeing the flicker earlier today, and coupled with a screen lift problem, that means I'm done with this particular unit. Back it goes!
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Gator5:
Screen Flicker

I guess I got a bad unit also. I haven't tested it above 50%, but anything below that and I get the random screen flicker....

Sometimes it acts like it completely goes black for a split second.

I noticed it the first day I got it from Newegg.com

I seen it on Press Reader, Firefox, Dark Summoner

I guess I'll RMA it.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Itaintrite:
Yup, that split second black out is what made me return the unit.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] nomadism:
I really hate doing these online RMA stuff, but it looks like my Nexus 7 is also not in the optimal shape also. I'll see if I have to talk with either ASUS or maybe my ebay seller (Adorama camera)
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bushako:
Hey guys,

I've been trying to search through forums trying to understand if it's necessary to get a class 10 micro SD card for running apps from SD. But I can't get a definite answer and would like to know from someone who has tried and tested a class 4 and a class 10 with apps2sd and if there was much of a difference. I'm planning to head out tomorrow and purchase a card so any input is highly appreciated. I don't really care much about transferring speed for media such as songs and videos to and fro a PC but more for gaming. I'm leaning more towards a SanDisk 32GB class 4 as its readily available at the local stores and very affordable.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shhbz:
Well the class of the card not only help in trsnsfering file fast but it even helps in rendering of games and app like loading time , it helps the phone to process faster the job as while clicking pictures it helps to reduce the lag thing as u can click instant shot simultaneously.

So a class 10 is preferred since san disk have issue running with note2 so samsung sd is recommneded though I myself Is using sandisk class10 but not with app2sd so I had faced no prob yet
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mohammed779:
I have 32GB SanDisk Class 4 .. I never had any issue.. I use FileMount to put my huge apps in the SD card, never had issues with them even though they are high graphics games..

The reading speed is about 300-500 mb/s I think.. Which enough to make anything run very smoothly ..

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3vo3d:
I also run a class 4 32gb card. It's too small though.

When I bought this for my EVO I was advised not to buy a class 10. Something about the read speed being slower I think? ?
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Brokkn:
I've been running dhacker29's CM 10.1 preview for several weeks. It's pretty solid. I'd like to update to one of his more recent builds. I'm new at this, however, and want to be cautious. I have TWRP.

Could anyone point me to:

1. A checklist for wiping everything and flashing a new version of 10.1?

2. A checklist for updating to a newer version of 10.1 without wiping all data.

A good checklist might go (and this shows what I am currently inclined to do):

1. restart into recovery

2. wipe cache and dalvik

3. factory reset

4. wipe cache and dalvik again

5. install new image

6. install new GAPPS

7. reboot.

I'm sure any experienced user will tell me 8 things wrong with that 7-step list. Which is precisely the advice I'm asking for. :cool:

Thanks in advance.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jco23:
if you are simply installing an update, all you should need to do is:

1. restart into recovery

2. mount system

3. wipe cache/dalvik

4. install update zip

5. reboot system

I don't think you'll need to re-install GAPPs.

you don't need to wipe system or do a factory reset unless you are installing a different ROM.

most folks recommend to backup your current system first though, but I generally don't unless I'm really happy with my ROM
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bllooi:
AOSP roms are easilly customizable! XD you should get the ReVolt rom! its a hybrid and its really great. The way you enable the logo to menu is that you go into settings, under quick links there should be a 'Device Options' slide to the left onto the 'touchscreen' submenu and there should be 'enable logo2menu'. Also one last thing is that you have to disable and reenable USB bugging cause there is a bug where the internal storage cant mount on it's first try. Have Fun :D

I'm now in V20a stock, and i must say that, for me, this is a wonderfull rom. All around very fast and buttery (menus, launcher, app drawer, gaming, etc). But im getting battery drain. For exemple from 11.30 pm to 8.00 am drains 14/15% of the battery with 3G, wi-fi, NFC,etc all off.

Tried the iodak kernel with stock v20a but the O4x heated to much playing games (very, very hot).

I tryed CarbonRom-Hello Halo! and it had good battery usage (2/3% overnight in same conditions), but it wasnt quite as fast and not as buttery as stock, no matter what launcher i used (tryed rom stock, apex, nova, Holo).

So i would like to know your opinion on roms you are using, in terms of:

- Battery usage

- Speed and buttery feel

- Temperature when playing
[LG Optimus 4X HD] @non4:
This sort of question isn't allowed. Iodak and werewolf kernels have many tunables that can help with battery. Get yourself a copy of tegra overclock, you can lock to less cores or the low power core, you can also use trickster mod kernel settings to reduce voltages. Unfortunately our battery life is just bad in use. Werewolf kernel has a baseband wake lock removed which should solve some of the drain whilst phone is idle. Have a look round and read up on the different offerings available, and gather your own opinion. Personally I think stock with iodak or werewolf kernel is a winner

Thats what i would like to get. Maybe sometime i try to do a clean v20a instalation. My present instalation was an upgrade from v10 using Kdz file. I thought this would do a clean install, what aparently did not happen. Something must be messing whith the battery usage.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] MrCythos:
I'm using the cyanogenmod 10.1 (android 4.2.2)

-battery

It's not very good but not too bad either. It lasts me a day of moderate usage but it has to be charged at the end of the day.

-performance

Very smooth. The only fault in that regard I find is that the 4.2 camera does not play well so I got the apk for the V20a camera. It works a lot better.

-temperature

It's still hot, the only way you can change in this regard, as far as I know of, is to reduce the clock speeds of the gpu. It's not so hot that it overheats but it's the same uncomfortable heat when playing very resource intensive games/apps.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] @non4:
Actually best way to control the temperature is with the throttle limits. Personally the heat doesn't bother me, but if its a problem for you edit /d/tegra_thermal/temp_throttle to values of your liking
