[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Itoshii:
That would be mine running at 14 hours. I have read many threads with many different thoughts on the cause of the mdm_hsic_pm0 wake lock issue. I have never had this issue in the two years of owning my note 2 on all different sorts of roms and kernals. When I came to this rom it was the first time I have ever had this issue so thought maybe since the only thing that changed in the past week was the rom I would look here first (after doing much research on the problem first to see if there already was a solution). The only solutions found were quick fixes when the problem arose and at which point was too late and was hoping to find a permanent solution. I am not saying it is the modem but seeing as I was using one from 2012 it doesn't hurt to try to see if that fixes it. Through research and suggestions from some awesome people here I did find that the most likely cause is a connection issue which a different modem could potentially fix.

As an update I did try to get the mdm_hsic_pm0 wakelock yeaterday. Doing all the things that others said would cause it and it did not occur. I will have to wait some more to confirm if the problem was actually fixed, as I have no for sure way to actually induce the wakelock.

Edit: Yes I found the the problem was unique to the galaxy notes on other phones it was a mdm_hsic_host or something close to that where the solutions were still the same, restart your phone or pull battery when the wakelock occurs.

Geez Louise with all the gapps updates ?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] prbassplayer:
Guys yes mdm_hsic w/e appears on any qcom based modem device. When the wakelock is excessive usually means the modem is having more trouble keeping connection and secures the wakelock with the kernel
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] eksoccer99:
Thank you...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Itoshii:
Thank you for clearing that up and I can confirm that too. I suffered from the wakelock on daily basis and almost 3 days now from switching my modem I have yet to have the wakelock for any longer than a couple minutes.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Eun-Hjzjined:
I've had this wakelock for a while and a few days ago I decided to try something new.

I had done full wipes before and it kept coming back. I noticed twrp 2721 has filesystem format now (ext,ext2, etc) so I formated system to f2fs and back to ext4, and then did a full clean install. And my MDM_hsic_pm0 wakelock hasn't exceeded 20 minutes in over two days now.

I must also note I'm running agni 2.8.1, flashed with the ROM, gapps, ssu, in the same session.

which modem did you switch it to?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Itoshii:
I switched to I317UCBMK6

(Updated 12/22/13)

Uploaded By-seanzscreams

Which can be found here along with other modems, useful links, and information.

Before I was using i317UCALJ2 which I believe was the original released in 2012.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] rob_z11:
Thanks. I am on the same modem.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Itoshii:
Update just so if someone reads the mess earlier and wants to know if changing the modem fixed my wakelock after seeing what a common problem with no permanent solution posted in other forums.

It does work. A whole week and not once have I received the wakelock for more than 2% of my on time. Below is a screen shot from today for which I believe may be the longest wakelock from it I have received yet at 26 minutes over the course of 34 hours. All I did was wipe my cache and dalvik cache then flashed the latest modem I317UCBMK6. Simple as that.

Also just want to say thanks again to everyone for the help.

You've just been lucky since that's not the solution. I have been running that modem for months and it made no difference to how often I get the wakelock. I will give the newest modem (i317UCUCNE5) a try, though, since I have never tried that one before.

Shouldn't be none. First run broke for a few devices was easier to just restart it. I'd recommend dirty flashing to the newer one just for sanity sake lol
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] rob_z11:
Thanks. Just did it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] rob_z11:
I'm on ATT LTE network. Not complaining but it's minor annoyance. Every time I hang up the phone it appears to drop data every time I hang up the phone. It reconnects in 3 to 4 seconds back. I am on latest att modem.

Before, it goes from LTE to h+ to h to 3g and back to LTE.

Now 3g, no data and back to LTE.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] ShrekOpher:
Same issue here. Also on ATT LTE. Also after disconnecting from WiFi the LTE signal is not always restarted. Sometimes I have to go back in and Untoggle then retoggle the LTE button in the quick settings.

Running newest weekly as of July 8th.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] shaggyskunk:
Did you flash the Weekly 6.207/09 - 5556 build? Or the 5413 build?

As per prbassplayer's post above..

Slim FAQ: http://www.slimroms.net/index.php/faq
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] rob_z11:
I have actually flashed both.. I am not sure if there was a problem on the previous weekly this week? I may go back to earlier this week. Mine is only doing it once I hang up the phone.. Wifi, it comes right away to LTE.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] ShrekOpher:
I'm on 5556. So I have looked into it a bit more. I have noticed 2 things.

1st - When on a phone call I do not get LTE, only H+ data.

2nd - Sometimes when I end a call the signal drops all the way out before it comes back in with LTE. (I think these might be related because it looks similar to when you toggle the LTE on and off)

Let me know if you need any more info happy to help. Love slim ROM.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] rob_z11:
I think #1 is by design to conserve battery or something. I have never gotten LTE when I am on call regardless which ROM I am on.

I have observed the same behavior as #2 every time I hang up the phone.

But needless to say, that thanks to great dev team, I am still enjoying my great note2. Love this phone the same as the 1st day I had it which over 18 months ago.

Best $100 I have ever spent at Walmart.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] prbassplayer:

Is this something we can flash or will it be implemented in the next weekly? I am willing to test if it is flashable before the next weekly. BTW love the rom been using for over a year. Thanks!

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] phubarr:
Running 6.4 and having a problem getting ART to persist after the required reboot. Anybody else experiencing this? Maybe it's due to me dirty flashing from 6.0 to 6.2 and then to 6.4. Running stock kernel, even went as far as manually wiping cache and Dalvik cache. No luck, after every reboot, I find it set back to Dalvik.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] prbassplayer:
Lol delete xposed, format system and reflash
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] phubarr:
You're good. That fixed the problem! Although I didn't have to manually delete xposed, the wiping of the system partition took care of that for me. Thanks again for the quick and accurate solution! It certainly would have taken me a while to figure that out on my own. I appreciate it and all your hard work maintaining this build!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] phubarr:
prbassplayer (or anyone else who's an authority on the subject), who should I speak to regarding a theming problem with TRDS?

With TDRS on, in the stock email app, while composing a message, if the recipient is a contact on the phone, the text displayed for them is black on a very dark gray background, which is nearly impossible to read. I suspect no one has ever mentioned it because it's been like this for a while and it would be awesome if anything could be done.

Thanks again!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] prbassplayer:
Screen shot please
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] phubarr:
Attached...

Also, correction, the recipient does not need to be a contact. Any recipient. What threw me off was that text doesn't appear this way while the text field has focus and you are manually typing an email address out (while typing, the text is white over black). Once you've entered the email address and made the field lose focus, it goes to this black over dark gray scheme.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] stew1411:
No I'm using stock kernel, so no UV for me. But I'm not against flashing another kernel if I need too. It's just that most custom kernels have their own splash screen. I just like to see the Samsung splash screen followed by the boot animation.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] prbassplayer:
Absolutely no work for f2fs lol. I don't have the device and doing that kind of Kernel work would require access to it lol

1) Is Knox removed from this ROM?

2) Is SELinux set to permissive or enforce?

3) What is the best method for me to upgrade from JB to KK and flash this ROM (recommended recovery, etc)?

Thank you!!

1) Knox is Samsung proprietary so not in any aosp rom

2) Permissive

3) update to latest cwm/twrp factory reset, format system cache and dalvik and flash away rom and addons

Hey prbassplayer,

I did some research on tap and pay and Google wallet, and now it uses HCE, host card emulation. It seems like this is not enabled or built into many of the aosp roms. Do you know if this is something that can be done easily, or at all? I believe it has been done in cm11.

Jumped from CleanROM 5.0 to SlimKat so I could try out the 4.4.x experience. I've been running SlimKat for about a month now and noticed a few problems. I'll do a full wipe and upgrade to the latest weekly to see if anything changes, but in the meantime, this is what I have noticed:

1. The phone only plays the ringtone sound once rather than looping it (maybe OGG vs MP3 issue?)

2. The G+ app crashes often, always after a reboot, after taking a photo, or taking a screenshot.

3. The Photos app does not show image previews, just the generic "unknown image" icon. May be related to #2.

4. Photos in portrait orientation are posted to Hangouts in landscape orientation. May be related to #2.

5. Hardware home button often does not work on first press.

6. Phone no longer seems to fast-charge with an Anker Astro 3 2nd Gen charger (same USB port, same cable as before).

7. Wi-Fi connectivity seems unreliable and slow. I've noticed this both when connected to my home router (Asus RT-N16) as well as to a mobile hotspot (Huawei E586).

I can attach screenshots and more detail for each one if the new weekly does not solve the problems.
