Hi guys I know I read on here about sometimes having trouble getting root access on this ROM. I have enabled root for apps and adb in the developer options, but one of my apps cannot get su access. I hot it with TiBu no problem, but I cannot with GMD spen control. Funny thing is, when I first opened it I got the su prompt, but when I want to actually use it I can't. I am running the newest RC 1 with devil kernel. Anyone care to chime in with some advice please?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] sublimaze:
Ah, that is on Moderate and Expert UI. You learn something new every day :thumbup:

The stock superuser app sometimes fails to prompt. I had to install SuperSU to get a superuser prompt for Viper4Android mod.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mikelikesbikes:
Thanks, I installed SuperSU and it prompted me to update the SU binary and failed on install. Still no go. The app I am trying to get to work is GMD SPEN control with Papyrus.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] *Hooligan*:
I'm curious, does this rom display the voice mail notifications?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] viper31573:
all roms do. some you just have to turn it on in voice mail settings as far as i know
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] daedal_arcanum:
For some reason I had to launch SuperSU twice to get the install to work; it failed th2 first time for me too. I don't remember now if I rebooted in between or not. This was on 2.4 last week.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] flyboy1100:
Is a fresh install recommended from last beta to rc1?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] drahpatel02:
not all, dirty flash, working perfect..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Dvanzutphenkann:
does screen mirroring work on slim ?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Shamestick:
Here are some battery stats from today, not the longest use day but a solid one nonetheless

The system batter stats were funky but I didn't want to reboot, so I grabbed what I got on better battery stats as well

However, I don't have any battery stats from when I was using stock kernel to compare
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] bigmike35:
Can you confirm or tell me if at least Gmail and Market are themed, since those are the two I use most. Calendar would be nice but not to big of a deal. I know there are theme's out there you can install and blackout, but I was just more curious then any, thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] flyboy1100:
Anyone who did a fresh install, does the Google auto restore work? (Apps, wifi, etc)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] sublimaze:
Calendar is themed. Gmail and Market are not.

If you want blacked out market apps & gapps, these guys do excellent work:

http://tinyurl.com/mhrajtg

Backup your existing apps before installing. Some of their apps install as regular apk. Others must be flashed in recovery. Wipe dalvik cache before flashing anything in recovery.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] bigmike35:
Thanks, yea I use some of there apps, but lately I have been rocking Cobalt and really been enjoying it. I love the icons he does for the theme. I normally use Blackout Cm Theme X (Donate Ver) with a mix of those apps.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] sublimaze:
Not bad. My screen time averages 5 hours/day on the stock kernel.

You can dirty flash but if anything weird happens/breaks, you know what to do next.

Go to Settings > Advanced options > Superuser and make sure SuperSU is allowed superuser.

If so, reboot, open SuperSU and try to update binary.

If not, uninstall SuperSU, reboot to recovery, wipe cache & dalvik, reboot and reinstall SuperSU.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mikelikesbikes:
So I am still having trouble getting root with this ROM. Enabled root in dev options, tried SuperSU, both with no luck. I flashed devil kernel, but I can't remember if my root trouble was before or after I flashed devil. I had root in the beginning cause I used TiBu to restore apps. Is there a stock kernel anywhere I can flash to test this? I tried Plasma but it won't boot, just hangs on the boot animation. This ROM is smooth as silk and I love the color scheme so I am not giving up yet. Thanks in advance.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] sublimaze:
At this point, you would probably be better off starting from a clean wipe. I have been running SlimKat betas for weeks and never had any problems with root access except for Viper4Android mod, and installing SuperSU fixed that.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] akellar:
No need for a clean flash, just flash the rom again. The root issue is from devil kernel.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] sublimaze:
Ah, good to know. Another reason to not mess with kernels lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] flyboy1100:
No need to reflash.under philz recovery you can re root, which will reenable root w/o installing supersu from market
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] homephysician:
Did for me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mikelikesbikes:
Can you please explain how to reroot under Philz? That is the recovery I am using.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mikelikesbikes:
Ok so here is where I am at, I was able to get root back using Philz. Thanks Flyboy. It is under one of the settings menus. It instructs you to download SuperSU from play store. Been getting an error 927 from PS which after clearing cache a few times I was able to download. Other apps as wellcaused that error. Not sure where that came from. Buuut, I may still reflash the ROM dirty cause of all the issues the kernel caused. Thank you all for your imput. If I reflash clean or dirty I will report back. Thanks again gentlemen.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] sublimaze:
I have not been able to download from the market today. I am pretty sure it is Google's servers again. They had problems a few days ago. Makes me wonder how things will be in a few years when we are all too dependent on their capricious servers.

Edit: I used Titanium Backup to force stop Google Play Services and Google Play Store, wiped their data, rebooted, and I can download from market now.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] homephysician:
I'm not an authority on ROMs or flashing them, but anytime I've had problems, the sure fire fix is to wipe wipe wipe and go in clean. Eliminate any stray bugs from the get go.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] sublimaze:
Agreed. Saves a lot of time & headache in the long run.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mikelikesbikes:
Good to know my play store issue wasnt on my end. Sucks just the same though. I am a firm believer in always wiping fresh also. Was only trying to avoid it this time cause the ROM was running so smooth (other than my root issue) I didnt want to mess it up. It seems all is well now, but if I have any more issues I will wipe her clean and start over. Setting up after a ROM flash to me is part of the fun.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] alki1979:
Is there an option for kill all button on recent screen
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] sublimaze:
Not on the most recent build. SlimRom devs removed that because it caused problems on some devices. But there have been many requests for it in the slimroms.net forum and G+, so it may come back. Make a request for it. The more people that want it, the more likely the devs will work on it.

There is an Xposed module to add it...

--Brandon--
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] homephysician:
It comes with recents just no kill all I believe.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] daedal_arcanum:
It's in the top right corner of my screenshot, partially hidden under the clock in the notification bar.

Or are we taking about something else?

--Brandon--
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] homephysician:
So it is a kill all apps button that kills all running apps or is to clear the recent? I looked in the xposed modules and didn't see a kill all for kk. Could be overlooking it though. lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] flyboy1100:
Yay!!!!!!!!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] daedal_arcanum:
Okay, I guess it just clears and closes the recent apps, rather than killing all processes in memory. The module is Xposed Recent Tasks RAM.

Does anyone else have blue tooth issues on rc1? Mine is a loud static noise. Cannot here anything.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] sublimaze:
I liked the snappiness of ART but I missed Xposed, so I switched to dalvik runtime. I got most of the snappiness back by odexing the ROM via this method. As always, make a nandroid before proceeding.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] gchild320:
Nope was using bluetooth to pair with my car on the way home from work.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] flyboy1100:
Finally got rc1 flashed. So far so good! Thanks gchild for bringing us slim!

Edit: recents are funky. I get flashes of apps that I cleared out when recents open. Not sure if because of dirty flash or not
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] sublimaze:
I have not seen that so far. If it persists, do a clean flash.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] flyboy1100:
It's weird. It's like in the animation even.

I will probably do a clean flash for rc2, as I don't see any other errors
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] TardyKilla:
Newest build running awesome so far, not a problem to report. I'm going to try to hold back my crackflasher tendencies and see how this runs for a week, which would be a record for me. Thank you so much for all the work you guys do.

I'm building slim from now on with Limaro 4.8 toolchain and - O3 flags.

Do you all want me to post a standard GCC version as well?

Some benefits to the 4.8 & - O3 Slim are speed and performance.

Battery may suffer slightly.

Btw kernel will still be built with linaro 4.7.3.

Anyway I'll probably post both... But if nobody wants standard GCC then I won't need to build it.

Your thoughts are welcome!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] homephysician:
+1 for 4.8
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] sublimaze:
I think the linaro battery hit would be no sweat on a Note 2. But since modders naturally embrace choice, I say post both builds, if feasible. Just my 2¢
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] ztotherad:
definitely can't wait to see more speed on slim. :) I'm all in for the Linaro 4.8/4.7

http://www.designrifts.com/teamblackedoutapp/
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] sublimaze:
Yep. If installing blacked out gapps, backup then delete orignal app, then wipe dalvik before installing blacked out version.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] drahpatel02:
any way to change per app dpi?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] sublimaze:
Install Xposed then "App Settings" module. Activate App Settings, reboot. Open Xposed > App Settings, tap on the app you want a custom DPI. Tap the "On/Off" switch at top left. Put your DPI in the top left box, tap the save/floppy disk icon at top right. It will ask if you want to kill the app before using it again with new DPI, hit "yes".

Edit: You must use dalvik runtime to use Xposed. This is not a limitation of the rom, but of Xposed (which does not support ART)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] drahpatel02:
Thanks.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] bambamishere:
Thanks

Well got all but the play store,google now,couldn't find how to unstall these two?

Also just got two of same text messages ?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DSinfinite:
Anyone know why "there are no calendars selected"

keeps popping up?

---------- Post added at 04:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:32 PM ----------

I recently changed to the SlimKat gapps and I also wiped cache and Dalvik but it still continues to pop up..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] sublimaze:
Have you installed/uninstalled a calendar app?

I use Titanium Backup. Open TiBU, scroll to Google Play Store, tap "Backup" then "Wipe data" then Uninstall". Do the same for Google Search. Reboot to recovery. Wipe dalvik. Flash the blacked out Play Store and Google Now zips, reboot system.

If you have not purchased the full version of TiBU, I highly recommend doing so. Backing up and restoring apps is 1000x easier, definitely worth the investment.

I am not sure about the double text messages. Do you have two messaging apps installed?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] gchild320:
RC2 is up, two different builds for you to choose from - standard Slim and my custom Linaro 4.8 build with -O3 flags for speed optimizations. Original link remains the same, new link added to OP for my custom GCC builds.

If anyone is curious, I'm using the custom GCC build with a couple kernel tweaks. Set min CPU frequency to 300000 to wake device up faster. Changed governor to lulzactiveq, and enabled touchwake.

Also, trust me that they are uploaded, may take a little for them to appear.

Not at all. I changed

pm.sleep_mode=3

And then editted some battery saving things. pm.sleep_mode=3 did do a pretty substantial hit to the battery life so I reverted it this morning and just using the kernel settings gchild posted the wake time is much better. The default is sleep_mode=1 powers down the cpu which is much better battery for idle and then 3 lowers the clockage and voltage but keeps it awake.
