[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] mpmilestogo:
HI! Thanks for the reply. I've attempted to flash two different AOSP builds. These are the AOSP builds I've attempted:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2470542

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2474297

I've also attempted to use the latest 4.3 GAPPS from goo.im as well as Banks minimal gapps for 4.3 dated 09/19.

The tablet is the 32gb wifi only model and I've flashed the latest twrp using fastboot from the command line.

Thanks!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] RMarkwald:
LTE or Wifi only version of the N7?

I am assuming the LTE version as one of those ROMs you linked is built off of 36C which is based off of the official image for the LTE version (36I was just released) .

[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HSOC:
Hello, I am having serious issue with the walkman app (both stock and the updated version). It frequently crashes as soon as I press the icon or if I turn on the screen with the widget. After a random number of attempts (3 - ~20) it will eventrually open. I have tried many things like removing widget, clearing cache & data in app & media storage and removing all my songs. I even unmounted my 64G sd (just in case). I am having a gps program with weird .wav filenames (e.g !sound.wav) but I have added a .nomedia to avoid indexing.

I have even tried to change the max processes limit in developer menu as suggested in an older thread for an older device.

All suggestions welcome (exept factory reset please). :)

After lots of debugging (voodoo, praying etc) it appears that there was a conflict with the svox tts packages. I personally had installed the greek language.

[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ch0ka:
Hey there ;)

I've been trying around with TW and AOSP ROMs and experienced some sort of problem.

Since the AOSP ROMs definitely have a better charging time I'm willing to stick to them.

But with the current PAC ROM I have very poor signal. Whereas the TW ROM gives an excellent signal strength.

My idea was it to flash a modem from a touchwiz ROM to the PAC ROM.

Possible? Insane?

Are there any flashable modems?

Or how could I solve my problem?

Cheers :)
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kcrudup:
Very rarely does Samsung update the modems in our devices (it's an Intel USB-connected external modem), and the one I have in my device (running the latest stock FW of XXCMI2) goes all the way back to XXCLL1 (i.e., dates from last year):

6f5bfdff604401a05cf5f73e3edb4f2e ./N8000XXCMG2_N8000RBTCMG2_1287589_REV00/modem.bin
6f5bfdff604401a05cf5f73e3edb4f2e ./N8000XXCMF1_N8000OXXCMF1_N8000XXCLL1_HOME/modem.bin
6f5bfdff604401a05cf5f73e3edb4f2e ./N8000XXCMI2_N8000OXACMI2_1388206_REV00/modem.bin

That being said, I'll bet that any signal-strength differences you're seeing are only cosmetic (i.e., how the bars are calibrated). To prove this, go into "Settings->About Device->Status" in both ROMs while in the same spot and I'll almost guarantee the -dBm values are within 2-3 points of one another.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ch0ka:
You gotta be right, because after another flash of the PAC ROM the signal issue seems to be gone. Weird tough :-$

But nonetheless I appreciate your help!

Must have been some weird internal file management issue...
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] tyiphius:
This is very simple to do and I've found it helpful in conserving my battery life.

1. Open up Settings>General>About Phone

2. Scroll down to "Build Number" and keep tapping it until it says that Developer options has been enabled.

3. Hit the return button and now navigate to Settings>General>Developer options

4. Turn Developer options on

5. Scroll to the bottom and check "Do not keep activities"

6. Tap on "Limit background processes" and select "No background processes"

Thats it!

Note:

Some apps like Netflix wont work if "Do not keep activities" is checked.

I've done this on plenty of phones and its helped with the battery life on all of them.

Let me know if helps with your battery life (and dont forget to hit that thanks button :D)
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] takki83:
I wonder if i change limit background process to no background process does the app will turn off if I open the other app? And will app need notification like email or whatapp no longer working? Thanks
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] jtmj06:
It's odd that developer mode/options were already enabled on mine and yours weren't.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] slimslim:
Att model didn't have it, that was the first thing I did after getting the phone.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] designgears:
This could end up draining more battery. Normally things are held in ram so they start up faster, if you have to copy something to ram every time you run it opposed to it already being there, you are going using more cpu power which means using more battery.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] snovvman:
I agree, if you rarely use the phone, it might be a good option. For most of us here, allowing apps to stay cached will help performance and constant re-loads, especially considering that there is plenty of RAM.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] cj31016:
Agreed. I went ahead and did this just for grins, and everything was slower because nothing stayed up in the background. I'll take the hit in battery life (if there is one) for better performance.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] tomthedancingbug:
if youre an average user DO NOT DO THIS

[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] tyiphius:

Thank You to everyone who replied!
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] daddioj:
Thanks OP for trying to help. but from my experience. this will make more problems then good. plus all the redraws it would cause from things constantly being killed. would be annoying and cause lag as well. but if it works good for u then cool
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] tyiphius:
Agreed! Looks like its doing more "harm" than good for most people. I thought I was an "average" user, but I guess I'm not normal :eek:
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] Agent:
I thought that doing that will ultimately result in draining more battery because of stuff being stored in the RAM

EDIT: After reading post ahead of me (using an app to view this so it only showed the OP and not the comments) I see that I was right lol
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] Dumbo53:
I guess I'm another heretic as I also find killing the background processes most of the time saves battery life. The key is whether it is an app you use infrequently and whether the background process engages in polling - especially useless phone home kind of stuff you don't want it to do anyway. In either case I've found it's better to just kill the app's background processes.

Try an experiment: check your battery level before bed and in the morning 7 - 8 hours later with all your background processes running as you normally do, to get your percentage loss. Then do the same the next night after Force Stopping all active app processes that are shown by a 3rd party Task Manager (the native one doesn't show you them). Compare.

This is useful to know because this is what your phone leaks in full sleep mode (if in fact your background processes actually let your phone sleep!) I get 0 to 2% per night loss depending on how strong and steady my LTE signal is, though of course a lot of other factors and settings come in to play. YMMV. Btw, I haven't tried the OP's method but I will. Thanks!

Unfortunately the "Do not keep activities" option doesn't allow the back button to function within an app - as soon as you touch it, it kills the whole app, so it doesn't do what I had hoped, (ie I agree with the consensus that it is useless).

However if anyone knows how to trigger a "Force Stop" (nuke) of the active app so that its background processes are killed as well with one button push, I would be grateful to hear it.

Anything pulled from storage takes more drain on battery compared to pulling from ram. Just remember that.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] thinkjoey:
i believe it is the smart stay or smart scroll
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Steve Lazarus:
It defaults to WiFi automatically (if it's available) to save use on your data plan. You can configure it to use data connection only in the advanced WiFi settings, not sure why you would want to, but the option is available.

And yes, the eye is smart stay/scroll etc... , you can turn it off by going into controls >smartscreen >smartstay. Keeps the screen on as long as it detects your looking at it ..

[Sprint HTC One (M7)] flex360:
how about compiling unsupported roms?

could you do a write up for that too?

for example paranoid android
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] FrostyF7:
Very helpful. Thanks
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] BMP7777:
I'll add any and all relevant info on building for this device; at least until I run out of room. But, I need verified successful steps before I post. Don't want anyone complaining about bad information. But, yeah, that's the whole point: to give detailed building instructions for any ROM out there. Stock or custom, as long as it's 4.3 and up. I used to run three or four builds at once and run the how to thread; not finding that kind of time anymore, so I need all the help I can get. The CM and BS builds are the only ones I have tried and/or been successful at compiling and running(had a few Carbon builds, but they never got past boot). I've already spoken with MallardDuck and he's gonna get a PACman tut together tonight. If you want to share, I want to post. The more people we empower to build for themselves, the happier EVERYONE will be.

I guess it is worth mentioning that if it's an unofficial deal, make sure you have permission first. Don't want some rabid dev sticking their foot in my rear because they didn't want to put their work out on the street. For example, the CM is unofficial but open-source(at least it is right now :p), whereas my Beanstalk build needs no distinction like that, because the creator makes it for the use of all. One last thing, if you want me to post a tut for a particular ROM, make sure you include those I need to thank as well as the steps. I can be reached for tutorial steps posting by PM or at Hangouts(PM me for my gmail). Make sure your steps are complete, because as I said, I don't have time to verify each and every step before posting....Thanks

Unofficial

PACROM

To get started with Android/PACman Rom, you'll need to get familiar with Git and Repo.

First Make your Pac directory and initilize the repo with the following commands:

[COLOR="black"]mkdir pacrom && cd pacrom[/COLOR]

[COLOR="black"]repo init -u git://github.com/PAC-man/android.git -b cm-10.2[/COLOR]

Then to sync up:

[COLOR="black"]repo sync[/COLOR]

Wait, but once you're done waiting feel free to move on...

Once properly synced the next step is to sync device files and to compile; which with PAC is all one step.

Simply,

[COLOR="black"]./build-pac -j# m7spr[/COLOR]

Where # is the number of cores you have.

This command will thriger the pac build scrpt that will then download the needed device trees and begin compiling.

:cyclops:

UPDATE: Now in OP.

:good::good:
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] BMP7777:

OP also updated with AOKP build instructions. Be aware this is unverified, if you build successfully, share your success or tell me it's broken so I can fix it.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Bairdog35:
This is awesome, thank you. What version of Ubuntu do you recommend? 12.04LTS or Latest? I don't know which to get.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] BMP7777:
I am normally the type to tell you the newest anything is the way to go, but depending on the type of system you are using, I have heard of some display issues that newer Linux distros have brought about. They seem to be nothing more than some settings discrepencies that can be worked out, but for a rookie builder, you really want as few issues as possible, especially with your environment. I would stick with 12 for now. Ubuntu is highly regarded, and so is Mint. I use Luninux 12, and its worked great for me for over a year. I like it because it has a UI that is virtually an OSX clone. I have experience with Apple systems, so it was easier to use than trying to learn the ins and outs of a different OS. There are quite a few other choices as well. But, most professional devs will recommend you use one of the choices above.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Bairdog35:
Thank you! I have had experience with Ubuntu and other distros before, but I didn't know if you needed a certain version to do all this haha, once again thank you for this! :)
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] MallardDuck:

Is there any huge differences within Gnome Ubuntu and just regular Ubuntu that would make me want to go with gnome?
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] BMP7777:

[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Bairdog35:
I do like the distro your using, quite fabulous, I have a mac and think I could easily relate to it, well, the interface that is :)
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] BMP7777:
For me, it was very easy to get up and running, and I build with it to this day. I enjoy using it enough to make it a daily driver, so to speak, unless I need my 7 install for whatever reason. It's one of those obscure distros but I swear by it. The OS updates come automatically, just as they would for any more common distro.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Bairdog35:
I think I am going to go with that! :) Thank you, if I have any questions I will stop by ;)

[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Bairdog35:
Actually quick noob question. I know I have a Intel 64 bit processor, so do I download AMD64? (Guessing 64=64 bit) but AMD is not intel.. Haha Oh lord.

Did some quick research and found out that it doesnt matter if its AMD64, still use that one if you have a 64-bit processor. Yay for research! :)
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] BMP7777:
I like you already. Your Google-Foo is strong, Daniel-san. :highfive:

OP updated with Carbon ROM instructions. I can verify the steps are correct; they come directly from Team Carbons Git.

If you are successful, please let me know.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Bairdog35:
Im hade some issues installing your distro so I said screw it, im just going to install ubuntu! Haha! But another issue, do you know how to intall it on the same drive that is using to run the LiveUSB? I have it running from an 1 TB external hardrive, and I want to install it there... I don't remember installing ubuntu to be this difficult Gahhh

I do know that you cannot install an OS on the same hard drive you are running so that is obviously my issue, but I do not have a big enough USB to perform the liveUSB and I cannot find a spare DVD to burn... oh the struggle, I can feel its real
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] JHoggAMLH:
You can dualboot just search for unetbootin and use that to make a live usb and then run the installer and it should give you an option to install along side your current os, if your running uefi firmware disable secure boot in your setup menu first
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Bairdog35:
I did think of this, but then I do not want to dual boot, I just want Ubuntu on my External hard drive. I used unetbootin to see if it will work, but it didn't even see that my external hard drive was plugged in, didn't even notice it...
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] BMP7777:
Did you make an install disk? Luninux need s to be installed by disk whereas Ubuntu has an .exe. I've never tried to run an OS from an external drive but I'm sure the Ubuntu forums have info on it. There are some links in post #3 that should help too
