Thanks good to hear that I was the only one. I have been using Nova Launcher and that seems to work better the Google launcher. I will keep playing with. Really like this ROM. Its nice to have something that is not TW based that works well.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] NXLTrauma25:
I will keep looking for a solution but please update us if you find anything. That is a big issue for me as well since I like running navagation and google music all access in my car
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] gchild320:
It's the gapps package likely. Try slim aio.

Photo editing works fine.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] esalce:
Have you tried a different launcher that seems to work for me. But I do not use nav. Just audio
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] gchild320:
Disclaimer to all...

Please don't post that things are broken if you have flashed a custom kernel. I can't support that and it makes it more difficult to determine whether something is a real issue or not. This rom is incredibly stable right now and most of the issues people are having are because of flashing a different kernel. I'd really appreciate everyone's help with this.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] NXLTrauma25:
I agree but just in case this was in reference to the recent posts over google music, this is on standard.

I have not. I use car home ultra and actually have not even tested it because I saw those issues. I will flash and try. I suppose it depends on how the OS handles car home ultra. I think it treats it as a launcher.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] gchild320:
It wasn't directed at you or anyone in particular, just seeing a lot of posts with people having issues and that they flashed a different kernel.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] HeadKase:
I flashed Agni and my photo editor works fine. This ROM is amazing. I have been getting over 24 hours easily on battery life with multiple email accounts and at least 3 hours on screen time. Thanks for the ROM dude I appreciate it immensely :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] MHatter469:
Battery reporting?

Interesting situation...

So I have been experiencing weird Battery...

This morning when I woke up turned on my phone, said "Charged" and I checked some things for a few minutes still plugged in. A little bit later got up, still plugged in said 35% Charging. 6 hours of not being plugged in it still says 35% for battery.

Any thoughts?

Using Feb10 Linaro, no custom kernals or anything. No power management apps like Juice Defender.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] gchild320:
Others have posted that this has happened to them on previous versions... Maybe they can reply?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] wtoj34:
I had a similar issue back on the gnex actually. Not exactly positive but I think I ran the battery down to 0 then fully charged with the phone off, then booted straight into recovery and clean flashed never going back into the os.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DSinfinite:
I downloaded a boot animation and was wondering if I can flash it to the SlimKat ROM or is that not possible?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] ttxcsabby:
Yo HeadCase, how the hell did you get 3 hours of screen time w the 24 hours? I love slim Roms but keep having to switch to tw Roms because of my suffering battery life.

Show me your ways! You using a governor or anything?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] gchild320:
Man I get around 5 hours screen usually. If you get abnormally high android system or Android os usage, try wiping cache and dalvik
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] HeadKase:
I am running the 2.6c Agni with all kernel defaults. I played with the sound settings which is what I was most interested in Agni for. I don't use the Facebook app. I have a shortcut to the touch site that launches in Chrome. This way Facebook isn't trying to constantly access my phone information and it isn't syncing anything either. I use Ubersync and have it set to sync once a day. I actually have 4 email accounts. My gmail and 3 corporate accounts. I stay on wifi while at my house and turn it off when I leave. I actually use my phone quite a bit and get really good battery life out of this rom (RC3) and the Agni kernel. Love the fact that the dpi is changed by default overall considering the massive screen.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DSinfinite:
I'm getting 30 total hours, 4/5hrs screen time with around 2hrs voice daily..SlimKat+Agni no tweaks.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] HeadKase:
^^ yup it's because of you I decided to give the Agni kernel a shot and so far so good
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DSinfinite:
Even with 14% still remaining I got 3.5hrs screen and 3.5hrs talk, check that out 35+ hrs and still decent amount to go till its dead. Agni is beast
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DSinfinite:
Plus if I didn't talk so much my screen time would easily be 5.5hrs +
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] lonzorizo:
Have to turn toggle location off/on to get a lock every time I use maps. Can live with it, but anybody know a fix?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] lonzorizo:
And for the quick record within quick settings...where are the files stored? Can't find my recordings anywhere.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] ap0ptosis:
Changing to "device only" in location settings fixed that problem for me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] flyboy1100:
Edit your gps.config, I posted mine a while back at it works perfect on "high accuracy"
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] TheDiabolicaL1:
GPS wasn't working here either. Tried restoring a tw backup, achieving a gps lock then restoring slimkat but it did no good. Changed the 0 to 1 in gps.conf and viola-gps.

Slims been running great! Agni kernal is great. My n2 flies now.

One thing I didn't like was how big everything is on the gel (gnl?). This awesome dev made an xposed module to mod the gel (gnl) to set up and configure the launcher to suit me.

*edit some words
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] gchild320:
Stables are up. One of them says build 3.1 and one of them says build 3. They are essentially the same thing (other than toolchain), just with a repo sync between the builds.

Also, note updated gapps.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DreamFX:
3.1 is a 0 byte file. Build 3 seems correct though.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] SkyHawk4:
It has a zero timestamp, too. Looks like a bad upload.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] gchild320:
I'll get it re upped by the morning
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] gammaxgoblin:
How's the volume on this versus tw?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Zottig:
I've read there are issues some are having with exFAT SD cards and my experiences bear that out. The posts I've read seem to all be 64GB cards which is also what I have. I tired the ROM straight and then with the AGNi Kernel... neither seemed to work. I wiped the card, re-formatted it with TWRP. Still a no go. Is the issue with exFAT support or an issue with 64GB cards?

Ben
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DreamFX:
It's lower. But agni kernel helps make up the difference.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] gchild320:
Upload should be fixed, please let me know if any issues remain.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DSinfinite:
Yes, Agni Kernel increases volume tremendously. This ROM + Agni = amazing.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DreamFX:
It's only 40 mb this time. Please check again :D
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] gchild320:
Wow I'm going to have to switch to ftp
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] LexusBrian400:
I have problems on ALL AOSP ROMs with my 64GB SD card no matter how it's formatted. I can't find a reliable way to use it, so I just stopped and went back to 32gig
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] sublimaze:
I am getting random shutdowns on the 2/16 linaro build 3. Clean wipe, fresh install with no tweaks or mods.

I put phone in my pocket and the next time I pull it out, its off. Anyone else seeing this?

I will try the standard toolchain build.

Edit: Hmmm...I guess I won't since its only 40 mb. Lol

Edit #2: Clean wiped & reflashed. No shutdowns or reboots. *shrugs*
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DreamFX:
I mean it is called slim rom lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] sublimaze:
Yes but 40 mb is anorexic ;)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DreamFX:
Yea I agree I like a little meat on her lol.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] TheDiabolicaL1:
Has anyone successfully killed the hardkey lights? I see the setting-i check the box. It works correctly, for a bit, but once the screen turns cycles on and off, when the screen comes back on-the lights are back on. For whatever reason the setting won't stick for me. Anyone else? Any suggestions?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] flyboy1100:
Build 3 is standard and 3.1 is your linaro tweaks? (Yes I know the current 3.1 upload is no good) just want to make sure before I update
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DreamFX:
Hold off on 3.1 it's a bad upload. Wait for go ahead before downloading that build.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] HerroMoto:
Has anyone successfully changed the LCD density? I've tried to through ROM toolbox and another app and after reboot no dice
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DreamFX:
Yup used that app and changed mine to 320. Works great.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] flyboy1100:
Right, but which is going to be the one with the tweaks?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] sublimaze:
Do it manually.

Mount /system as read-write and make a copy of build.prop. Then open the original build.prop and find this line

ro.sf.lcd_density=245

Change 245 to 320 (or whatever density you want), save the file as "build.prop", and reboot.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DreamFX:
Build 3 is 4.8 toolchain and build 3.1 is 4.7 toolchain. Neither have tweaks per se.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] sublimaze:
Sorta off topic, but if any of you are curious to know if you are missing out not having a Note 3, don't worry. I used a retail rooted VZW N3 for a couple of weeks, and I went back to my SlimKatted N2. The N3 screen is definitely better, but everything else is just meh, especially with Touchjizz. The N3 is not appreciably faster, and the battery life is no better. The N3 radio is definitely inferior — I have had two N3s, and the modem sucked on both. The N3 struggles to maintain a signal in areas where the N2 has no problem. And the retail VZW N3 development is slow compared to the N2, and nonexistent if you want an aosp-based rom. So if you like SlimKat, then you are already using the best device for it :D
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] NXLTrauma25:
Fantastic rom. Unfortunately even after using gps tweaks I get no gps connection. Same with any non verizon tw rom.

Excellent rom though and I did thoroughly enjoy it.

Back to testing for Davidson
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DreamFX:
This is a Verizon rom and it's AOSP, not TW.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] NXLTrauma25:
I was stating that ALONG with aosp roms, non verizon roms also give me the issues.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] PhilDX:
have you tried the standard GPS fix for non-TW ROMs? i.e., flash any TW ROM, open maps until you get a solid GPS lock, then, with maps still open, reboot into recovery and flash your ROM of choice?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] gammaxgoblin:
any idea why philz recovery is telling me the the 4.7 version dated 2-16 is a bad file? I have dl it to my pc twice from different mirrors and directly to my phone. All are bad?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] pdinphx:
Which tweaks? Changing value of last line in gps.conf to =1 always works for me.

Also, expect to boot/reboot up to 3 times before GPS fires up. And don't use Maps, use a dedicated GPS testing app ...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dtroup64:
Dirty flashed over cm11 - camera works, buttons work, everything seems to be running beautifully... only issue (and I had this with a clean flash of slim 4.4 as well) dpi seems very skewed. Font is too small for me to read across the board in every app. As no one else has mentioned this, there must be a weird setting left over from somewhere. Strange, as I never ever mess with dpi....
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] gchild320:
I believe DPI is set at 245. You can change it in build.prop in your system folder. Make sure you set permissions back once you have messed with the file! 320 should get it back to how you see it on most ROMs with no tweaking.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] gchild320:
Holding home works as recents.

No this is not available.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] bgstyle:
Dirty Flashed over CM11, much better experience. Only problem is native tethering it starts and runs but does not seem to broadcast, tried to use WiFi Tether as a replacement same issue. Is this a bug in the rom? USB tethering works great though so far.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Dvanzutphenkann:
Yeah I did that on cm11 just wondering if it was baked in this rom
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] kirch21:
You don't need to change anything. Recents works just like normal. I an actually liking the DPI at 245! Thanks for this. ART is running fine also
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mazz0310:
ROM is working great so far. Has anyone been able to get Tap & Pay to work on this though? Or CM11 for that matter.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Droid_Evo_8:
Ok. Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] gammaxgoblin:
The 11/19 build that is posted on the build page is good to go?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] .shawn.:
What gapps package is best. Full, medium, or minimal
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] gammaxgoblin:
That's a personal preference.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] rodion.zissou:
Gchild, I'm anxious to try your build, are there any other options for SD swap we can use with your rom?

No love lost
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Dvanzutphenkann:
Several apps in play store are now not available for this device one being the weather channel, is there a fix for this? Maybe this is PA's latest 11-19 full gapps that did this what do you think gchild can I flash gaps over top to attempt a fix?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] gchild320:
Yes camera works with that build.

I don't know, since my device ruins every SD card that I put in it within a day, I've stopped using them.

Its a DPI thing. You'll need to change DPI to 320, clear play store data, reboot, download your apps. Then if you want to change DPI again, change it and clear play store data and reboot.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mad96:
I flashed the 4.3.1 build last night and I needed some info from my backup which was cleanrom 4.1.2. The backup failed twice and a clean flash won't boot past the splash screen. Also I tried to odin back to the vrall4 from which I had first rooted with the same results. I have done my research and I'm stumped at this point, any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Dvanzutphenkann:
That's easy you reflash twrp and then restore your back up that you made with twrp, then your back up will work. Then if you plan on being on cwm you flash cwm again and make a backup of clean ROM with cwm and you shouldn't have anymore problems.

---------- Post added at 01:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:08 PM ----------

I will do this now you sir are brilliant
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] gchild320:
I've noticed restoring backups in cwm jacks up radios for me, so just throwing that out there.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mad96:
Well I still have the latest twrp that I can boot into and it did restore on the first try but never would boot past the splash screen so I tried again and that's when it started failing to restore each time after that. So you suggest to reflash that same recovery the reboot into recovery and try to restore then?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Dvanzutphenkann:
Yes and I'd recommend before restoring wiping all data and system and dalvik and cache in the advanced wipe but only do this just before swiping to restore

---------- Post added at 02:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:26 PM ----------

You can't restore a 4.4 back up it will not have data or phone but ive restored 4.3.1 and all was fine

---------- Post added at 02:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:28 PM ----------

BTW I changed the DPI and wiped all data but play store still tells me apps I was using yesterday aren't available for my device. I found one of those apps on amazon app store and I'm not overly concerned because this is a very nice build. One question I do have is about my Verizon data widget. On every build you've ever made its a one click thing but now I have to sign in fully to see my data usage stats any ideas why?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] gchild320:
Yeah it could be because I set network name to Verizon instead of Verizon Wireless in system.prop
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] NXLTrauma25:
Yes sir! Tried them all... it has always been this way. Best case I can get it to work for maybe a day then it stops on Jedi or an att based rom. Never gotten it on aosp at all. Some people just haven't been able to lush it through to work. No idea why.

Like I said though I still love the rom but I need naigations and I test for davidson anyway. Just wanted to try some aosp roms as I love seeing more of our talented devs!!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] HMMVVEE:
Hey gentlemen... & ladies - is anyone having trouble with low volume from the speaker? Is there a fix for it?:confused:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] flyboy1100:
Did you try mine? I slimmed the gps.conf up a bit and I posted all the code earlier in the thread. I had all kinds of gps issues with non tw, but once I made those edits. Gps has been rock solid on slimkat!

---------- Post added at 12:47 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:45 AM ----------

V4a installed as a system app

Or

Agni kernel

Or

Devil kernel

Will fix your issues. Personally I'm using v4a, gave up in agni because it lacks stability that the included Kernel has.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] NXLTrauma25:
I believe so but I'm willing to give it another try. Would you mind just posting the file? Make sure I am not user erroring it up.

Not sure if that formatted correctly as I am on tapatalk and not a computer
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] NXLTrauma25:
Thanks that seemed to work. I will let you know if it fails over the next week. Really appreciate it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] sublimaze:
Flash Agni kernel or an audio sound mod like Viper4Android. But if you flash a custom kernel and have subsequent problems, go to the kernel thread first. This rom is rock solid with the default kernel and gchild320 doesn't want the thread cluttered with issues likely related to custom kernels (and he is justified in expecting that)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] djd338:
I'm in the same situation - no gps. I tried the script but still no help so far. Maybe I missed something? This rom + agni literally flies! Gps is my only glitch, but it'sa must have for me, using it for work & offline maps. I'm not giving up yet tho. I've gotten rests before coming directly from TW, so that's next if I can't get the script proper.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] flyboy1100:
Use root explorer, open your gps.conf in a text editor (it should auto backup), clear contents, paste in what I posted, save, reboot. Check status with gps test or gps status.

If that doesnt work, nandroid slim, restore or flash tw, get lock, restore slim, profit
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] zhakrin:
What's the odds of getting something like V4A rolled into the install? One of the things I hear most often other than GPS is low volume. For folks like me that aren't really up on all the things you can do to tweak and install this would be a huge thing. Granted I don't know what I'm talking about or if asking for this is impossible, but it was just something that I thought about.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] sublimaze:
I like your train of thought but that might lead to padding the rom with stuff that not everyone needs or wants. It is a slippery slope. Where do you draw the line between essential apps/mods, and fluff? That is very subjective. I have flashed roms that looked good in the OP, only to discover a lot of superfluous junk after setup. Everyone has their favorite apps/mods, and with root there is usually more than one way to achieve a goal or feature. Imho, a leaner rom is better. Just my 2¢
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] djd338:
Bingo! It sat for a minute, soft rebooted for some reason, & locked right up after the boot. Thanks greatly for the help. I've got a copy on the ext. SD now also that can direct replace if future requires. Thanks again.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] sublimaze:
You must change V4A UI Setting to Moderate or Expert. Then on Headset/Phone Speaker/BT tab, scroll all the way down to Output gain. Change that to 0.8 or 1.6 dB
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] NXLTrauma25:
Excellent. That raised it just enough to make it audible.
