Gallery crash the OS

Thank you for the great rom. Most of the feature working great except one major problem that make me to revert to my old OS. The gallery make the whole OS crash once it runs. It is repeatable on my Note even right after wipe. It looks like that it crash when Gallery about to preview a video for thumbnail. Anyone else find this? Or just my device?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Wintersdark:
I have no problems with gallery - just checked, though I actually use QuickPic instead of the default gallery app normally.

Working great for me overall. Disabling HW overlays, but that's been a thing since ICS. There was a build.prop fix(to avoid having to reset it after boot), but I can't remember and don't care enough to search for it.

All in all, this ROM is damn amazing.

Also, as I noted on G+, I've been able to get ART running just fine, all I needed was the newest PA mini modular gapps package. Definite app loading speed increase, which is welcome on our low memory Notes (can't keep as many apps cached in ram). Its most noticeable with your launcher, if you don't set it to stay in memory, makes Apex load instantly for me _always_, including widgets and whatnot, even if its been swapped out.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] MechaGen:
I'm on p11, 11-26_Gapps after CLEAN install and gallery reboots my phone every time. Even QuickPic reboots the phone.

This fixed my problem, Thanks NomaSS

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] s89281b:
i am on p12. same issue for me. not a big deal for me as i dont use gallery often. for now my workaround has been to store all photos in same location as camera stores. this way i can swipe left and view/share photos from camera app. this is only issue i have had. after rom is set up i run odex script and all animations off and no lock screen this thing flys. i have zero wait for anything. best rom ever.

Slow boot

Thanks for all the work on this ROM :)

It is very nice, but one problem I've had is that every time I reboot the phone it goes through the "android is upgrading" process for about half the apps installed (82/175)

I am using ART do you think that might be the cause?

never mind :) I know an easy way to find out, BRB.

:eek: changing ART to dalvik caused the phone to not boot

Reboot into recovery wipe Dalvik cache now phone is booting upgrading all apps ;)

yep, that fixed it! normal reboot after initial, no "android upgrading"
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jlpatte2:
I had this problem on some early 4.4 build and it went away after I reformatted internal and external sd cards with the latest cwm.

NOTE this WILL delete everything, so backup anything important to a pc first!

are you asking how to format with cwm? boot into cwm. go to mounts and storage
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] JamieD81:
I don't see anyone telling people to back their stuff up to PC before wiping, always assume people don't know and bring it up.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ianNaos:
I just figured anyone doing anything to their phones like this would use cloud base apps for contacts/docs/files/pictures...

Ever time I format then install a new rom, I just install all the apps I want then all contacts/pictures/files etc are back...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] s89281b:

im on p12 and running the latest pa gapps from 12/15 and the only issue im having is the screen flicker ive tried disabling the hw overlays but that really didnt help....i did a factory reset...wiped cache and dalvik formatted system and formatted phone storage and my sdcard and it still does it but its no biggie the rom is still blazin fast!!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] s89281b:
Just got my important data backed up to PC and formatted my storage. Gallery is now working perfectly. Started working after formating internal storage but still went ahead and did SD card as well. I am now running with zero issues. Thanks guys for help and Jamie for your dedication to the note. I now have no reason or desire to upgrade to a newer phone.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ianNaos:
the only previous CM ROM that I've used that doesn't have the screen flicker issue is 10.0.0.. (Android 4.1.2)..

I do agree, that issue is probably the only thing the keeps this ROM from being the best I've ever used.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] JamieD81:
You make it sound like flicker is a deal breaker when it doesn't effect anything other then someone's ocd... Lol
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] tube517:
This ROM just saved me from buying 2 phones. Thanks Jamie! My Note is still badass.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Polluti0n:
If you download a Build.prop editor from the play store and change the following lines the flickering should go away.

Change "debug.composition.type=dyn" to "debug.composition.type=gpu"

Change "persist.hwc.mdpcomp.enable=true" to "persist.hwc.mdpcomp.enable=false"

Add this line "dev.pm.dyn_samplingrate=1"

Save and Reboot

Thanks again and I look forward to future updates.

I found the Thanks button... where is the <3 button?

---------- Post added at 08:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:41 PM ----------

admittedly, I myself am a bit of a perfectionist... in some things..

I have dealt with some bugs on phones.. it just seems that once the screen flicker starts, it goes crazy.. and then drives me the same.

I must say overall your work on this ROM shows, and I thank you for your hard work... I don't think the screen flicker is your ROM at all, many CM ROMs do this, and drives me.. that's why I have a backup of 4.1.2 as a just in case, worst case, need my phone to work now scenario.

The little fix though in build prop may make my ocd rest at ease.

Thanks again for this fantastic ROM, sorry about my previous statement, it's not a deal breaker, I'm just old.. and like stable/fast.. but I can let a few things slide :)

Jamie. I just wanted to ask you if the battery percentage reporting in the 3000% is a known issue? My battery says it's got thousands of percent. This only started happening in p12.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] armyboy11b:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] JamieD81:
Mine was showing -2million when I first built 4.4 :P but that issue was resolved so no idea where your getting 3000% :-\

Nice lol that's crazy
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] MechaGen:
Here's another tip:

Rather than editing build.prop every time you Flash an update, create a text file in /data/ named "local.prop" with anything that you would edit in build.prop, (including the above three lines, dpi change, wifi.supplicant_scan_interval, anything!) these changes will survive a "dirty flash", which CM roms normally handle quite well. Set permissions to "rw- r-- r--".

Example:

debug.composition.type=gpu

persist.hwc.mdpcomp.enable=false

dev.pm.dyn_samplingrate=1

wifi.supplicant_scan_interval=300

I just flashed version 12 and the gapps package linked. This rom actually works pretty well, the system seems really snappy, the camera works well now. the major bugs i've seen include lots of rebooting unless I turn down the clock speed to 1.8 or below, the keyboard gestures don't work (i prefer the google keyboard anyway and when downloaded works great), but the big dealbreaker for me, and what's going to keep me begrudgingly on 4.1.2 is the same problem i've had on EVERY 4.2 and 4.3 rom i've seen on xda, and that's the lack of bluetooth keyboard support. I turn on my keyboard (tried with both my motorola 23191P and a current generation apple wireless keyboard) each of them go through the normal pairing process whereby it prompts me to enter the pin, and i do, and it moves the device to the paired list on the phone, but it never gets to a point whereby the keyboard allows for input on the phone. it never connects when the keyboard is powered up. I don't get it. does anybody have any advice? it's the same on all 4.2 and 4.3 roms and i don't know why, and further, other people besides myself must use bluetooth keyboards... i'm rather surppried the problem hasn't been solved by now. it's been the better part of a year.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] zeddock:
Thanx. I do know that but going through the process it asks for sizes as I recall. There is also someplace that asks what kind of file system... Ext. Fat. Excreta.

I could guess but I thought there might be a better option for this rom.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] dkelley:
Check and see if in camera settings there is an option to change to a different video file format. Old old android issue that occasionally comes along with certain people when leftover settings from old roms remain.

I'm guessing here though. ... still downloading this rom.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] crutzulee:
While I had some camcorder issues on p11, it was readily apparent at the time of taking the video. If it was going to be garbled, you would see it that way as it was recording..

No such issues with my dirty flash of p12....in fact, I have absolutely no ROM related issues at all with my current setup so I haven't felt the need to go back and even attempt a clean install once I had the time..:good:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] grafton24:
Yeah, I took another and it worked. So I'm not sure.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] tube517:
No issues with video playback. I was on p10. Skipped p11 and flashed p12 over p10. Very smooth oc at 1890 wheatley
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] cpgeek:
I meant no disrespect in my bug report post. In fact your rom is the smoothest running ROM I've seen on the i717 and works quite well.

As far as not needing a keyboard, my phone is also my tablet. That's why I bought a phone off this size. I use it often to take business and technical notes in Evernote, write lots of emails on gmail, write papers and stories in Google docs, lots of instant messaging and make longish posts like this on xda, not to mention all the redditing I do. I've stopped carrying a notebook for most purposes. I use my phone more as a netbook than I've ever used it for talking in the phone or texting (I hate SMS)

Thank you for all your hard work. Once this gains BT keyboard support it'll be my daily driver. For now it looks like I'm back to blackjelly.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Polluti0n:
I made a flashable zip that will amend the changes listed above to your build.prop. I just thought it would help for anyone that doesn't feel comfortable modifying their own build.prop.

Thanks all for your suggestion. My Gallery working now after formatting all my storage including SD card.

One more (minor) issue for me. I see flickering when I use camera to record video under florescent lighting. I believe it is due to the sensor has the antibanding setting to 60Hz while I need 50Hz in my country. Is there a way to change the setting?

I did quite a bit of research having read your post but I couldn't find anything specific to our phones. However, you were right about the broken GPS. For anyone having trouble with their GPS install the attached apk file. It seems to have fixed my GPS issues. :cowboy:

My GPS works fine, but my compass is off by 90 degrees counter-clockwise. It's strange, but not a dealbreaker for me - I don't rely on the compass, and a map is fine for navigation for me.

Honestly, I'd be happy even if the GPS didn't work at all for me, as this is the first ROM where I haven't had even a single random reboot or screen of death.

Thanks for the rom, it flashed and setup just fine. everything is working good.

I use numbers a lot when I am emailing
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] iThrive:
Not sure if there is such a thing as an average battery life because everyone uses their phones differently. Some like myself needs to be constantly connected and can't afford to shut down certain services to conserve and needs to have cell services active at all times while others barely use their phone and claim all kinds of ridiculous battery life. So many different variables impacting battery life that it's hard to answer that question.

What I can say though is that this ROM is pretty stable for most users, including myself.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] JamieD81:
i routinely get 15+hours with 3-4hours screen on time, full brightness, 2ghz, no stupid apps shutting any type of services down.
