I have found the 9/10 build unstable and unreliable. I flashed back to 9/5 and find it very good.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ~SoulTaker~:
I switched back to 9/5 as well. I'll build a new nightly over the weekend and hopefully it will work better for us.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Really now:
I really appreciate what you've been doing for us SoulTaker! :good: There are only a few 10.2 ROM's that work well on my phone and your updates are one of them. Others give me system UI crashes or google (take your pick) has just quit working. I don't even bother installing more than a few key apps until I've given the ROM a good work out to see what is or isn't going to crash. But what the heck, I really enjoy flashing all the different ROM's and seeing what they have to offer. You and the other I717 Devs are truly appreciated! :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] srpanadero:
Also appreciate it. :good:

Does the camera video recorder work (consistently) for anyone?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ipprof:
I just tried it. Couldn't get a video out of it and âââ after that I couldn't connect to the camera. Starting to lose faith. May go back to 10.1 after the next build if it's no improvement.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ~SoulTaker~:
New UNOFFICIAL nightly built.

It still has the small boot animation, maybe that's intentional???

The video camera crashed the 1st time I used it, but after that I was able to record video.

Taking photos with Focal works, but PicSphere still does not work.

It may be to early to tell, but it seems to wake quickly on the first first keypress so far.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Really now:
I'm thinking that the small boot animation started when CM added the CYANOGENMOD login to their ROMs?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ike368:
Hey anyone in here having trouble using non-lte mobile networks?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ipprof:
Yeah I always do. Not sureiff there is a good modem for tmo

In having trouble flashing this new ROM. Will have to download again....
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] srpanadero:
Inspired by ~SoulTaker~, if there are any quincytmo users reading, I am attempting to do the same thing and make nightlies for that device over here.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Really now:
The camera works ok for me on the 9-15 build but the video recording quits most of the time and then I have to reboot to get back into the camera. But then again I don't use the video record feature very much and I have fully functional nandroids I can always go to. Other than that I haven't had any trouble with this build. Thanks once again ~SoulTaker~ :good:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Daisuke1988:
Using the 9-15 build, very impressed. And my favorite part is having the H/W overlay unchecked.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ipprof:
Better. Focal USUALLY works unless you try anything but straight photos. If you do, the only answer is to reboot. I was about to say this is like 905, better than 910, but it froze and rebooted at that point so the jury's still out. I think it's a bit unusual, even irresponsible, for cm to leave things this way.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Daisuke1988:
Its been about half a day that I've been using it, so far so good. I know its not enough time. Also, the only small issue I've four d is that I can't seem to remove the lock screen slider shortcuts. I remove them and save it but still there. No big deal though
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] weathertom:
I've been running the "official" (and only, as far as I know) 10.2 nightly from 8-14 for about a month. I just flashed this 9-15 build and everything seems ok so far. I have been pretty happy with the 8-14 nightly from CM, but there were a few issues that were bugging me, so we'll see how things go with this ROM.

One thing I noticed right off the bat with this version vs the 8-14 nightly from CM was that this one included the CM activation/login stuff whereas that one did not. Didn't seem to cause any issues, and otherwise everything is working well thus far. Obviously, will take a few days to see if anything crops up.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] zeddock:
Using since yesterday. Clean install. A few reboots until it settled but now seems good.

Thanx.

Zeddock
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] weathertom:
Good to hear. I haven't had any issues outside of what I was already experiencing, and overall things are going very well with it. I'll likely update it again in a week or so.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Daisuke1988:
I've been running the 9/15 build and everything has been working flawlessly. H/W overlay disable and only had one reboot. Camera forced closed once but worked after. Nothing else to report.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] weathertom:
Sorry for my ignorance, but what is "H/W overlay" and how/why should I disable it? Thanks.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Daisuke1988:
Sorry I meant to say H/W disable unchecked.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ipprof:
Look at your security settings. I signed into cm as asked and it got rights to wipe my machine. I unchecked that administrator!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] weathertom:
Sorry again, but I don't even know what that is. What is it, and how/why to disable it?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] srpanadero:
"Disable HW Overlays" is an option in the Developer Options of Settings. This forces the GPU to do all screen rendering. That has been needed for various reasons, helps prevents graphical issues and camera problems that have come up from time to time. Also sometimes can slow screen rendering down, so it isn't disabled unlesss you need to. And, you need to reset it every boot if you want it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] weathertom:
Aha, thanks!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] zeddock:
I have not changed anything and seems to be working fine. Although sometimes it does not wake on one power press.

Have to press... Then press again. Then press again and it comes up.

Also yesterday maps and chrome said no data connection, but I found the cell signal turned of and I think I had hit a bunch of stuff while phone was in pocket!

So not Roms fault!

Good nightly.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ukguy115:
Wider if going incorporated will get the i717 back on track
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ipprof:
I think someone much more competent and informed than me should approach the cm people and ask them what's going on and express our dissatisfaction and sadness that one of us has to assemble a new build each week, asking further if it is sensible to keep the build off the official list if the alternative is the essentially equivalent unofficial build. It's like something out of Kafka.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] VannMann:
I have a feeling we are going to be dropped because of our chip. They stated something in there Reddit AMA that made me a little worried about our device and it's future.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ipprof:
Well that's interesting and depressing. How do we plan our future purchases though? How would we know that a device won't pass this hurdle two years after we buy it?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ukguy115:
I still have faith the i717 is essentially a bigger skyrocket with a s-pen and its getting nightlies.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] VannMann:
Time will tell, but so far it isn't looking good.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ~SoulTaker~:
I think the safest bet is to get a Nexus device.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] VannMann:
Very well worded! You have a more vast knowledge of what I was thinking, but along the same lines. Hope we are wrong, I want to keep my phone for a few more months and it would be awesome to have a custom ROM that where everything works great and is on current version with the CM logo. :fingers-crossed:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Daisuke1988:
Well after a few days of using the 9/15 build it started to become very unstable. Will try again when the next batches are available
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] khaytsus:
So, four buttons is the theory!?

No, there's some sort of NAND corruption bug that they're working that that affect a small number of devices. I've talked to a few CM devs and none of them could pinpoint the issue but all had seen it in passing. I'm still trying to find the details.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] TheHamPimp:
With the latest CM business model, I think they've lost me. I was a financial donator in the past, but I don't want them making concessions for carriers, Google, etc....that doesn't interest me in the slightest.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] VannMann:
Details would be nice, if you can find them.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Frankenbiker:
No, but in the context of the original question, marginally relevant.

The theory still stands that our device is more headache than it's worth, so it will be dropped sooner than later. The four buttons idea is that they're a super-easy way of telling our single-market device apart from the rest of the world's otherwise similar devices.

Is this a different bug than the eMMC bug(s) that was/were super-bricking a tiny number of our devices?

-blaine
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] khaytsus:
Yes, different and new. And I still don't have any info, but I wouldn't make this stuff up, I promise. I was chatting with a CM dev and asked about quincyatt nightlies and they said:

But he couldn't find the specific conversation he'd seen or who had said it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Jamesyboy:
The 9/15 build is CM10.1 dude. You're rocking Android 4.2.2. There's only been one 10.2 build for our device so far.

Bad link
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] srpanadero:
Someone needs to make sure ~SoulTaker~'s quoted on each page. :D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ipprof:
It's 4.3 according to all the evidence.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ukguy115:
Yeah unofficial!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ipprof:
I just wanted to make it clear that it's incorrect to say there's only been one 10.2 build. There have between five or six, one official but all ultimately from the same source.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] weathertom:
Yeah, it's 4.3. It may be "unofficial", but is definitely a newer version from what the only (8/14) official nightly was.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] fieldside:
Have the video recording and camera force close issue solved with this rom?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ukguy115:
Working here, focal will be gone next nightly anyway.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] weathertom:
Has there been a new nightly since the 9/15 one (unofficial or otherwise). If so, where is it?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ipprof:
If you're talking about those posted in this thread by soul taker, no.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] weathertom:
Yeah, that's what I meant, thanks. I'm happy with the 9/15 build, just wanted to make sure I hadn't missed anything.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ipprof:
Someone a few posts back said it had become unstable but I've noticed nothing like that. Each one, with one exception, has been better than the preceding.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] srpanadero:
Are you saying that video recording is working OK (repeatedly) with the standard camera?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ukguy115:
Yeah, I did flash Google standard camera though. Wanted picasa albums to sync with gallery and photo sphere but should the same thing for most part.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] srpanadero:
OK so your using some 4.2.2 camera package? The 4.3 one is a no go on video recording here.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ukguy115:
I have unofficial 9/15 cm 10.2, Jamie's uber kernel, and a 4.3 camera zip; camera workin fine not sure why. Focal always had issues though I liked the effort now some business differences so it will be gone.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ~SoulTaker~:
New UNOFFICIAL built.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] MonkeyThumper:
Just info I'm passing along here....I'm not blaming anyone for my below experience. I'm just letting people know what happened to me yesterday, in case it is a sign to come.

I'm currently running 9/15, latest Uber kernel. I've done a dirty load ever since my completely clean install of 10.2 on 8/15, and have had no major problems until now.

I had been running 9/15 ok since I installed it on 9/16, until Sunday morning. I was reading email, and the phone rebooted. Ok, not usually a big deal. This happens once in awhile, but not enough to scare me away from 10.2 testing. Maybe an unexpected reboot once every 3 days...

The Samsung logo came up, but then just a black screen. I let it sit there for about 5 minutes, but the CM logo never came up. I forced another reboot, and same thing. I even let it sit there for about 15 minutes one time, just to make sure.

I then booted into recovery. That worked ok. I thought I may need to do a restore, but when I tried to look for my restore file, I was missing sdcard0 & sdcard1. I could only see the 1gb internal phone memory.

So, I shut the phone down, and pulled the battery, and reseated my sim & sdcard1. Started the phone back up, and would see the Samsung logo, but it still would not show the CM boot logo. I then booted back into recovery, and sdcard0 & sdcard1 were still missing. Now...I'm starting to feel like my phone is screwed.

I pull the battery again, and just let it sit for about 5 minutes while I get something to drink. Come back, and try normal booting again. The phone boots fine this time. It does go through the steps like it thinks I have done a new ROM install, but I haven't. All of my data is there, and all the apps are working as they should. I go back into my email, and read the message I was working with before, and everything is fine.

No idea what happened here. I'm currently still using 9/17 today, and I have tried to get it to freak out again, but no luck. I'm going to try the new 9/22 build next. Yes, I still am going to continue testing these builds. I have enjoyed 10.2 a lot, even with a couple of issues here-and-there. Thanks to SoulTaker for building them for us.

If I do have the issue again, I will then probably decide to do a complete wipe of my phone and start over from scratch with the latest 10.2 build from SoulTaker. Just haven't found a specific need to force me to do this yet, but this issue was pretty close!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] khaytsus:
That's just weird that it would require a battery pull like that.. I've had a "fresh setup" reboot on an AOKP ROM before, it was weird.. Had to set up the Google account again, but after that everything seemed normal. Always wondered if I lost some other data somewhere but never noticed it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] MonkeyThumper:
I agree it is weird. Not sure if the battery pull was even necessary. It is just what I did out of habit when I have ever had a problem that a normal reboot didn't fix. I don't know if just turning the phone off and letting it just sit powered down for a little while would have fixed it also.

Was just glad it came back up when it did...football was getting ready to start in a few hours, and I really didn't want to be messing around with my phone!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] weathertom:
Just went from the 9/15 to 9/22 build, things went fine with the install, and no obvious issues thus far. Thanks ~SoulTaker~ for building these!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ipprof:
Yeah thanks ST. this is a good build. No more focal but videos are back. Good work!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Larry94:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ukguy115:
Anyone getting a sync error for there Google account?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] srpanadero:
If there is an issue with NAND and/or emmc corruption as was mentioned last page, then maybe that is the kind of thing that would happen. It would be good if anyone else has an issue like that to post it here.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] weathertom:
Sorry if I'm missing something obvious, but is there a way to do photosphere without Focal? I don't see it with the regular camera.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ukguy115:
Flash 4.3 camera with it. Cm removes it for legal reasons.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Daisuke1988:
On the CyanogenMod device page it is noted that the phone is no longer supported.

Not sure if its temporary or what buy obviously pur phone is still a capable device if 10.2 runs great in which I say the latex build runs fantastic!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] goalcam:
The devices page does not state that it is no longer supported, simply that it cannot currently run the latest version of CyanogenMod.

Either way, it has not been updated since December 2012 so it not terrible useful at this point anyways: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Quincyatt_Info

edit: Looks I was mistaken and it pulls the information from outside the wiki. My first statement is still true.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ~SoulTaker~:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Really now:
That's quite a list of changes for the next nightly. :)

thanks, i'll keep trying
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] hispanomlz:
You might be onto something here, I had this very thing happen to me a week or two ago, except I am running CarbonRom nightlies (also Android 4.3 builds), with the latest Uber Kernels as well..... I switched to it from CM after the initial 10.2 build was never updated and before ST started pumping out his builds... clean install of the initial CarbonRom, dirty flash since making the switch... figured I would share here since it happened to me on a 4.3 based rom as well...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ipprof:
Anyone notice the late hour? Usually Soul Taker drops a new one by about this hour or earlier.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ~SoulTaker~:
You're totally right! I usually build late Saturday night, and do a quick test on Sunday before I upload it.

This time I built one on Saturday afternoon, but I had problems with it after flashing so I didn't upload it.

I don't know if it was something in the ROM, or if it was the new version of TWRP causing the problem.

I'll try again within the next few days and hopefully it will work :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ipprof:
What's the new version? I couldn't find anything newer than 3.6.1.0
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] rohankb:
There's a 2.6.3 on their site, but doesn't auto download in Goomanager. Still shows 2.6.1
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ipprof:
I downloaded it from teamwin and flashed it with no problems. Thanks.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] rohankb:
I haven't flashed it yet, but just a heads up, a few are saying they are having problems with ROM's installing or booting or some weird things because of this newer version. I personally held off for now from updating it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] CalcProgrammer1:
I'm having this now. I went to switch from AOKP back to CM, flashed with TWRP, and rebooting = data wiped and hangs. Have you figured out a way to fix this? Is it caused by TWRP? The behavior still persists after I wipe data and system and flash an AOKP ROM so I'm suspecting something at the recovery level or bootloader needs to be reflashed.

EDIT: Odin back to stock ICS, it seems to have flashed a new everything, we'll see how it goes. Lol it's all AT&T branded, can't say I missed that crap especially since I'm on T-Mo! EDIT 2: LTE?!? I didn't know T-Mo had LTE!

EDIT: It reboots! Ok, so it's not permanent doom if the corruption happens, you can go back to stock and then reflash everything. Oh well, back to stock just in time to compare it against the Note 3 in store tomorrow!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ~SoulTaker~:
That's the exact same problem I was having with TWRP 2.6.3.0

I thought there was something wrong with the last build I did so that's the reason I never posted it.

Then for the next few days any rom I would flash all had the same problem freezing at the samsung logo or the boot animation.

I was begining to think my phone was dying because even roms I've used many times were all having problems.

I went all the way back to TWRP 2.6.0.0 tested a few roms and they all worked again just as they did before.

I also reflashed the unreleased build and it works and reboots with no problems.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] CalcProgrammer1:
Great! Now I know to flash that version of TWRP when I go back to custom ROMs. I figured it had to do with that since I only recently flashed TWRP over CWM.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ipprof:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ~SoulTaker~:
9/28 UNOFFICIAL build uploaded.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ipprof:
I don't think it's TWRP. I just backed up a new nandroid with it and then flashed the newest unofficial build along with gapps and it was at least as smooth as earlier versions.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] VannMann:
Cm added some changes for the new TWRP didn't they?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ipprof:
I haven't looked at the changelog yet but I think this latest version is much smoother than what came before. I don't understand why they don't issue an official version. This could be the best cm ROM I've ever flashed.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] VannMann:
Now I GOT to flash it, lol.

Very true. Just mentioned it to let those who are loading the 8/14 "OFFICIAL" know that there are more recent builds.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] gunterm:

Anyway I loaded the 10.2 nightly from CM and its full of problems. The random reboots and crashing Bluetooth from 10.1 are still there :confused:

Is that the 8/14 nightly? I don't recall having those issues with it, but did do a factory reset prior to going from 10.1 to the first 10.2.
