Thanks for the reply Shayne. I already tried that and for some reason it won't work still. I've done every the op says but with no luck. I haven't had this much trouble with getting it to work. Were you on the 10/4 aokp?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] shayneflashindaily:
Cant remember honestly ...go into settings ..sound...music effects......and make sure viper is checked ....if that is even on 10/4 i dunno......i use poweramp as well and make sure dvc is unchecked and music fx is checked ......if have to install ROM and give it a go but I'm getting rid of my note tomorrow ... Good luck man

thanks Devs

I flashed this to my brother's phone and he's been intermittently noticing that the home button kills apps. He says it goes away then it does it again later. Another thing is that sometimes the phone won't wake up the capacitive buttons light up but screen stays black. Other than that he says it runs amazingly smooth the bugs aren't enough to keep him away from it.

Another quick question I can't find the options to overclock I have used AOKP before but it's been so long since my last 2 phones didn't have AOKP ROMs. Thanks in advance
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Bubba:
Nope.

Not sure about the home button. My menu button if long pressed, kills the recent apps..

As far as the screen, this was just discussed a page or two back. Use Trickster or System Tuner to change the governor. Look back a few pages for suggested settings.

Although I don't over clock, I imagine are in those two apps I mention above.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] khaytsus:
When you say "home is killing apps" do you mean that you press Home and return to the app some time later and it's been killed? If so, yes, memory pressure seems higher with 4.3, not sure why. But apps are being terminated by the system due to this more frequently.

And for the slow wake issue, as Bubba said, use some app to change the governor to OnDemand. Wheatley is working good for me too, which is theoretically better than ondemand.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] kimtyson:
Another possibility for the phone not coming on (black screen but capacitive buttons work) is to turn off the CRT. It's in Settings-ROM Control-General UI-CRT Screen Off.

All you guys having trouble with viper sound mod - you installed busybox, right?

I haven't had a chance to mess with it, as I have been working on other things, and my sound has been good. I installed it on every 4.2.2 flash though, and always make sure to install busybox from the playstore, first.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Bubba:
I INSTALLED IT PER THE INSTRUCTIONS POSTED A PAGE BACK .. SEEMS TO HAVE NO EFFECT ON MUSIC WHEN PLAYED.

However .. when I get a call or notification I can hear ther effect .. at first I thought my phone was in the other room lol.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ZacksBuilds:

I have done all of those things. I can't even get the previous versions to work. It was the same for at least one other 4.3 based ROM I was on. Really weird.

Okay I installed busybox free from the play store. Let busy box install to xbin. Now the version says 1.21.1-stericson. Before it said 1.21.1-jb. I just figured it didn't needed to be installed. Sorry for being a noob blownfuze. This is now the best ROM I have had on my gnote. Thanks

Has anyone else using fuzes cwm recovery tried to make a backup. I just tried three times and they all resulted in cwm rebooting 3/4 of the way through backing up system.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] BlownFuze:
I'm glad that worked. Busybox gets overlooked a lot

, and if you forget , most of the time you need to start all over with viper to get it to work.

No need to apologize - you never see me come down on people that don't know as much as someone else. We all are at varying levels of knowledge here - and we are all learning more everyday - including myself. :thumbup:

I haven't had any issues with backups.

Having said that, I will be moving all the recovery downloads and explanations to the second post, this way it's in one place.

I am working on android 4.3.1 right now, and I will have an updated recovery to go with it. Never thought I would get into the recovery business, but oh well. Lol.... whatever it takes to keep our precious notes safe.

So I couldn't wait... Once everyone was asleep I did the deed. So far so good. Haven't tested the Bluetooth wakelock but will later and update in case that was fixed by the updated code. car home still not working but hopefully bf is still pondering that one.

BTW still zero reboots. I was up three days before rebooting for the update.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] BlownFuze:
The Bluetooth wakelocks are probably still there. Back when I changed the drivers, to get Bluetooth to stop disconnecting until reboot, is when I creamed the bluesleep_uart_port. I haven't figured out how to get it back in, without screwing up Bluetooth again. Lol

It will be awhile before I can test some things out with it.

Car home... I still haven't found any other info on getting that back in - aside from that one java file change, which does nothing.

Bubba - viper4android is a no go for me here. Lol

I got it all installed and setup the way I always have... and nothing. It didn't change the sound on any interface for me, no matter what I did. /shrug ... uninstalled.

I had Viper working in the last version of ROM (Oct 4) but no longer can I get it to work in today's version. One thing I noticed though. There used to be the DSPManager.apk but it's missing from this current ROM. Oh well. Still the best 4.3.1. I'll look for other audio tweaks.

Hm, kinda scared here.... I'm trying to use the newest recovery "Recovery v6.0.4.4) and everything is just kinda... hanging, when I try to install.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] magnumforce2006:
It's hanging on everything... I think I've broken the recovery.

I have a feeling this is from using the Darkside Superwise (which never had any problems on Teamwork Recovery).

After I used that I installed the Rom and gapps, but nothing started. Now I'm here :(
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] pTeronaut:
Is there any way to turn the Cap lights off? I thought that there was in the previous version.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] BlownFuze:
Yeah, I wouldn't use any older scripts. Just wipe the partitions manually and flash for now - until newer scripts start coming out.

Try re-flashing the recovery, then reboot back into the recovery and start again without the script.

Yes there was. I put a note in the changelog, that I removed the advanced settings for this release.

4.3.1 changed some more things, and I needed that out for now. I will be bringing it back in a future release - without the calibration stuff.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] pTeronaut:
Bummer.

On another 4.3 ROM, I used an app from the Play Store called Soft Button Light which allowed me to disable them, However, that app doesn't work here,.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] _INSPIREed:
There is an option to disable them in Gravity Box under display tweaks. Its an Xposed module. Should work for ya, although I haven't tried it on the latest build yet.

BLUETOOTH

Thank you, thank you, thank you.... for making BlueTooth work and not disappear. This was the only 4.2 ROM where bluetooth does not fall off. I am greatful that you have brought it to 4.3 as well. I've personally tried other 4.3 including CM, Carbon, SlimBean. And there bluetooth eventually disappear just as they did in 4.2. This is the only 4.3 ROM where Bluetooth works regardless how many times you turn on and off through out the day.

VIPER4ANDROID FX:

I got it work by doing following:

Install APK Version 2.3.0.1 (FX), Codenme Beautiful

Do the in app install

Make it a system app either by moving to sys folder or using Titanium Backup

Enable both Speaker and Bluetooth in Viper settings

Reboot

Heres the odd part. Driver will not be enabled until you connect to bluetooth speakers or headset. You must connect bluetooth once. But once its enabled, it will remained enabled for BOTH phone speaker and bluetooth after you disconnect from bluetooth. (attached screen shot of driver status: enabled)

Please note that if you reboot, you will again need to connect bluetooth once. I dont have a problem with is because I have bluetooth speakers at office, in car, home.

CARHOME ULTRA:

I got it to work by doing either of the 2 below:

1) They have a home button patch on google play. It works if you make it default home. But pressing home button when its not in car dock does not go back to page 0 of launcher which kinda suck.

2) There is an Xposed Module called "EnableCarDock". I installed it and IT WORKS! once installed, it works like its suppose or use to. (screen shot Xposed with said module)

MP4s:

Its a real pain because Facebook gallery crashes as well when you try to post new photos. So when ever I put a video on phone say a movie or something from computer. I forgot bout it and it would crash. It doesnt have any problem with MP4 from camera or newer MP4s... So I just rename folder by adding "." in front of name where I put my videos in and problem is solved. Facebook no longer crash. I actually use QuickPic for gallery anyways and I can exclude listing videos on it.

PS.

This is the most reliable ROM i've ever used. No random reboot. Seriously!

PS2.

If you cant tell I am very happy I am finally able to post on this thread... as I had to put 10 post somewhere else before I can... LOL

Is there a work around for video recording every time I try and record a video it freezes and crashes and then I try and go back it says can't connect to camera and I have to reboot
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] kethoi:
The camera works for me both video and photos. However, if I remember correctly, it originally crashed as well. But I think after a few reboots it worked. It may also be that I changed the GPU back to 266. It defaults at 320. I got my back to 266 via trickster. Everything seem to actually run more smooth with it at 266. I don't know if thats the contributing factor in video camera working tho. But my camera works both video and photos with my current settings.

FYI, the photo camera works, but the video camera does not work in INSTAGRAM. Video comes out as noise. I can however put video from file. So I just use video camera to shoot video and just pick the file after.

BTW, I did try install Focal APK and it doesnt seem to connect to camera. I just uninstalled it.

---------- Post added at 02:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:21 PM ----------

You mentioned it not working if shooting back to back videos... If I remember correctly, I had same problem. I think it was due to trying to go to gallery and gallery is crashing not video camera... I believe if you touch a particular part of screen within camera interface it goes to gallery and that is whats causing it crash. Just a thought.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] magnumforce2006:
Newest version is running superbly.

Only real problem is that some apps like to close when multi-tasking (i.e. if I'm listening to music and then go to use facebook, sometimes the music app will close out) but I guess this is an issue with most 4.3.1 Roms?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] erad1:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] kethoi:
IN REGARD TO APPS STAYING ACTIVE IN MEMORY - Particularly Apex Launcher

I do notice that in my Apex Launcher seem to have to re-load a lot recently, if I were to use another app that is somewhat memory intensive or if using an app for a longer period of time, push the home key, there would be a pause of few seconds. This is an annoying lag where you just looking at your wall paper until it reloads all your widgets and icons.

This happens even if I check off the "keep in memory" in Apex settings. Because of this option in Apex, if you check box, it would put a "apex launcher has loaded" in status bar every time it loads. So when it doesnt lag, this message don't show. But when it does the lag, this message would show up in status bar. This tells me that it indeed has unloaded it and it has to re-load again. And this is what causes the lag.

I also read somewhere that by checking Z-Ram setting in Trickster would help, but it did not.

GOOD NEWS and FIX:

I just made Apex Launcher a system app. Again using by Titanium Backup or manually moving to sys folder. And this FIX the problem all together. NO MORE LAG. Regardless what other apps I was using Facebook, Flipboard, Instagram... all of which are memory intensive... I push the home button and my laucher comes with all icons and widgets instantly.

FYI: I have lots of widgets including Flipboard, Calendar, Task, 8 different ipcam feed, BeWeather and more. And I also have live wallpaper sky clouds. At first I thought it was because of all these widgets, but it turns out not to be so. Once it was a system app, launcher pops up instantly. I still check the "keep in memory" in Apex setting just for good measure but it hasn't pop up "Apex loaded" in status since making i a sys app.

So if your launcher is lagging, hope this will help. Again this worked on Apex Lancher, but I pretty assume it would work with other launchers as well.

This works for Apex Launcher... it may work with other apps that you need to stay in memory as well... as per post about music app.

PS. Shoutout to BF for this awesome 4.3 ROM

Found it from here.. http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=39765 which has some info, but the last post is a link to the post that'll be updated.

The patch is slightly different, but there is a test method there which is nice to be able to see if it's working.

They say it's fixed internally, but not released as of 7/30. I wonder if it made it into the 4.3.1 AOSP code.
