yes, auto switch is off but when it was on obviously on disconnecting wifi it was switching to data plan. and yes, I use tasker. I think it could be cell tower losing signal so it switches onto the second one it found and only then turns back my wifi and connects to home wifi. probably switching between towers causes tasker to turn it off. thanx.

If you have made profile based on home location tower then look to recent tower and check if any tower getting connected at same place which you have not defined. If that's issue then add this tower too.

Has anyone experienced an annoying bug with the s5 browser. Every so often, I don't know what triggers it, but when returning to the browser after leaving it, the keyboard automatically pops up. It doesn't seem to be the keyboard because it happens on more that one keyboard app. The only way I've seen to stop it is to clear the browser out of regents and reopening.but sooner or later the same behavior occurs. Not major but very annoying always having to hide the keyboard is every time.

Hello Doc, apologies if this has been asked previously--but, if moving up from V.9 to V.10 [ plus V.10.1] is a Cleean Install, Full wipe, necessary-or is the base similar enough to V.9 to be worth trying a Dirty Flash?

Once again, sorry if this is a repeat question.

Thanks to you, again, Doc for your incredible dedication to the Note 2--if this is because your wife is using the Note 2--big thanks to your wife, also.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] ias94:
Few users reported dirty flashing to be working without any problems. You can do it too. Just don't forget to make a nandroid of your current Rom. If you face any problems then clean install is the way to go. And just to remind you, the doc is not in approval if dirty flashing.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] KoKoMaster:
Just make a nandroid backup,give dirty flash a try.if you have problems, try a clean flash. People have had success with dirty flash. Ymmv. Cheers!

[MENTION=3931450]dr.ketan[/MENTION] request

Please update the 3 minute battery mode v. 2.1 with stock note 2 system ui because old version is not working please
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] haybill:
Thanks to the 2 people who answered, but I am actually asking the good Doctor Ketan just how different is the base firmware of the new ROM compared to V.9.

I always make Nandroid Backups before flashing either way, if the base is similar then I first risk a Dirty Flash, but if the base is greatly different then I will do a clean install.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] dr.ketan:
My answer for dirty flashing is same always.

Go ahead with dirty flashing but in case anything wrong happens and you coudn't find similar issue on thread just wipe device. (No reinstallation requires)

Simply you will lose some data application like story album/Kids mod (Aroma install these app in data partition to save space on system and that can be reinstall by just running aroma again and selecting those missing app. Only secure setting you will have to get from play store and utility itself will direct there.

OR alternatively simply clean install ROM.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Androidwizzard:
Too late, hm. ;)

(I know you asked our Doc, but I assure that base is identic, same firmware NG4. Nothing changed so dirty flash should properly work.)
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] haybill:
Thanks to both, Dr.K and Android Wizz, that's the info I was after.

Thanks again to the other guys, but their info was a bit more general and I was aware of it.

It was what A'Wizz said that was critical, although everything that Doc K says is always important to listen.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] dr.ketan:
See Samsung never asking for clean install isn't? even there is OS update (not only base) and thousands of user updating device OTA without any issue so it's also a myth that updating base needs wipe. What is important is settings. We have custom ROM and may getting update some system application which is different from not only base/OS but also device :p lol. While samsung have never to think about this.

Any settings of previous ROM application couldn't find storage of same settings in new ROM it will cause issue. This also happens if you choose different mods in aroma from previous selection. say this time you selecting N2 launcher and next time you select S5 launcher then there is no doubt you will have FC with launcher unless you clear data for same. But remedy is same. Try dirty - If you are not happy - Go clean.

If your funda is very clear in understanding android you should never have problem. most of time can easily find root cause of issue and clearing part should solve issue. yes one can't read instruction in OP/Aroma and radically remove bloatware is an open invitation to errors and finally reporting in ROM as a

BUG

is more painful to listen.

Hi Doc, this is lil off topic now

I read many places that:

" Exynos vs Snapdragon

But this time we’re disappointed. Why? Because the

Snapdragon 805 is fundamentally a 32-bit processor

rather than a 64-bit one. The Exynos 5433 processor seen in Note 4s elsewhere across the world is a 64-bit chipset." and "Exynos version of Note 4 is also has LTE 4G" and "Exynos version already beaten SD by good margin"

Can you please guide, then why you are buying SD version? I think this time Exynos is has better future! :)
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] dr.ketan:
Because of Samsung policy. If they just release exynos for small community then have to go for SD. Right now I have n3 exynos and really no much development choice for users. Hardly 4-5 developer are active. Users also fees disappointed. Though I have lots of users but still feeling emptiness. I just don't won't to repeat again. Will go with majority.

Hi doc,

well I'm here to confirm, after a week of usage, that sometimes the entire system lags, I mean not an application, but the system itself, Launcher, settings, toggles, anything you explore it lags, but this for a short period of time, normally 5 to 10 minutes, after it restart itself to be smooth.I don't know if this depends on my heavy personalization of the rom, but I waited an entire week to tell you.

A practice example would be to open the multitasking panel, close all the task and normally it returns to the homescreen immediately, well the multitasking panel takes about 5 seconds to do that during the period of system lag.

Yes I did a complete wipe before flashing, yes I reinstalled twice the rom, but these lag persist.

Any idea?

OK, final thought.

If you create Tasker profile Load App/Kill App (i.e. Voice rec/Voice search & Google it works. works just fine. but once you done with recording, Google and voice search comes back on and if Voice rec is in your Recents Bar, this time the message "Unable to rec" will pop up. but if you clear it from Recents, basically you killing it and o the next load Tasker will do what is was profiled to. but while it's recording, everything is fine (tried for a minute) but those 2 are dead for the time being. fine with me.

At the onset extremely sorry to ask a noob question, can i flash stock recovery from Dr.Ketan Utilities.. i am on V8 and i need to flash V10.1. If i remember Doc mentioned before that its best to flash stock recovery and format internal memory before installing V10. Is it right doc ?

Yes it's always nice to go clean.

This should be step to follow.

1. Make backup of important data from Int SD to pc

2.Copy v10 to ext SD

3.install root explorer and long press extSdCard - v10 file and select property. Now it will show md5, just match it with one provided on v10 download post. This will make sure file is not corrupted on ext SD.

4.copy recovery.img (if you have tar.md5 then extract) on int SD root. And from utility select flash recovery. Alternatively you can flash stock recovery in tar format with odin.

5.reboot to stock recovery and wipe data.

6.straightway reboot to download mode and flash custom recovery (recommended philz 6.26) without rebooting device. With odin with unchecked Auto reboot.

7 . manually reboot to recovery

8 . wipe data and flash v10 from ext SD.

This will be real clean install.

After a day of usage following your indications, I had no more system lags and everything runs even more smoothly. The RAM usage is lower, normally before the indicator was almost every time in red, like 80% and up, and sometimes I had to clean manually the RAM (and in some days very often), now as you can see in image below it never reached that point, maximum 75%.

I don't know why that option uses lot of system resources, but now I am almost ready to use this rom even in my job on emergency ambulance, because it seems really stable (that's why i tried this rom on vacation, to avoid troubles). If it is stable like this, I am not alone who thanks you, but also all the people I can rescue and sometimes save their lives, be proud dr.ketan, your development is also useful in this, and I'm serious ;)
