Sorry lol it is kinda confusing. Basically you can flash devil kernel by itself just fine. But you can't flash agni on top of devil kernel. Agni has to be flashed over a stock kernel

oh , that makes sense. why didn't i understand that.
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] erwinsie:
anyone here used DN3 but then switch to this slimkat, what are the advantages ?
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] noidman123:
Well I used dn4 if that counts. But the main advantages are speed, stability & battery life. On dn4, all the Samsung apps & features constantly stayed in ram kept my device awake, resulting in battery drain of over 30% a night. It's tedious (and dangerous) to convert system apps to user apps & greenify all those (plus it defeats the purpose of having a touchwiz rom since i disabled all the main touchwiz features) so I had to switch to slim. If you're looking for a stock aosp rom with good features & great battery life I'd definitely recommend it. I easily get 5+ hrs of screen time with this. Not to mention slim Roms are usually more stable than most aosp Roms. (This isn't to bash the dn4/3 Roms in any way, they're great just not for me)
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] erwinsie:
thanks. im sure before dn4 you also using dn3 ? well they are very similar anway. yeah i noticed i dont use any of those fancy samsung features anyway (apart from smart clip) but im willing to try something different. been with CM but never try Slims
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] noidman123:
Yeah I've been with both dn3 & dn4 but never really found myself using all the features. Slim is very similar to cm in lots of ways but for me slim has always been more stable/reliable. It has almost the same amount, if not a bit more, features than cm, my favorite two being the real dark slim (does wonders for screen on battery life as it turns the system ui & some apps pitch black) & the built in system app remover. Overall, you can customize it a lot if you want, or just leave it alone. Its one of those roms that "just work." You should definitely give this ROM a try :thumbup:

Edit: if you do decide to try, I recommend using a DPI changer of some sort as the default ROM DPI is different than our device default
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] erwinsie:
i will be using nova and make the icons smaller (more icons in the page) if that is what you meant.

i also currently using apk called "app setting" but only modify chrome browser dpi to 230.
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] noidman123:
Yeah the default DPI for our device is 320 but slim sets it to like 240 something. But since you'll be changing things it shouldn't matter :) hope you enjoy the rom
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] hendex:
I wish this ROM had 'all clear' button under the recent app. Can you suggest any third party software that can do this?
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] fatboyinlycra:
You can clear all. Finger and thumb on the recents and pinch them together
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] hendex:
Wow didn't know this. Cheers!

Does clearing recents also kill the app from running in the background?
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] atmos929:
What is "finger and thumb in recents and pinch them together" to clear them all?... You don't mean to swipe each app from the recents list right?
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] Mnementh666:
Thumb and finger on top and bottom, pinch. Like maps zoom.

Ever since I upgraded to v9 I've had troubles with GPS locking.
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] sValtman17:
[MENTION=4488793]PerthSGS2[/MENTION] fastergps in the playstore fixed it for me. Interestingly, does not stick on reboot. No disrespect for the stock kernel, but Shift 3.9 kernel with STweaks has a setting on the tweaks tab that got it to stick. Also like the additional governors offered. With that being said. SlimKat offers an overall great experience.
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] makuu:
Well, if you are not sure why don't you use both. ;)

So even if you don't like Slimkat that much you can always remove it and stay with your DN3.

You can even test several rom and still keep your DN3.

That's what I have DN4 & Slimkat in dual boot. Sometime I like the fluid slimkat.

But sometime I miss the DN4 and it's samsung feature, so just need few minutes to reboot and it's just like I changed my phone. :)

Wifi not turning on

Help, my wife is not turning on when I am in airplane mode like it did in the past. It just refuses to turn on, sometimes I can get around it by disabling airplane mode, getting signal, switching the airplane mode back on and then it allows to turn on wifi.

I have tried the tip a few page ago, but it does not work.

CPU at max when Power Connected

I don't know if anyone is still using this rom. This rom is perfect without any bugs for me, except for one minor annoyance......

Whenever I connect the phone to charger, the CPU will max out at 100%, with Google Play Services process occupy 100%. The phone will still charge at the same re-charging rate, and this process will stop once the phone is fully charged at 100%. However, if I don't let the phone charge up to 100% and unplug at say 90%, then this process will continue to hog the phone at 100% CPU, and I can only resolve that by rebooting. Alternatively, if I reboot fresh refore recharge, then there will not be this Google Play Services process to occupy 100% CPU. I now have the habit of rebooting every time I recharge, which is a bit annoying.....

I searched all over the web, and cannot find any solution. Anyone else experience this?
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] peterhugelberg:
I always thought this was a kernel issue (im using shift kernel)

You could try this:

1. unlock your phone

2. pull the power plug from the power socket

3. pull the micro usb connector from the phone

If i do it in this order i have no wakelock issues
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] ray1234:
It's not just a wakelock issue, as the Google Play Service is really using CPU. No matter what I do, if I do not allow it to charge to 100%, the Google Play Service will continue to hog CPU.....

I never thought of this as a kernal issue, especially since it was ok at first when I use this rom a few months ago, it was only since the recent Google Play Services 7 upgrade that I experience this, if it helps I'm using AGNI CM kernal.
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] xForsa:
I flashed my n7105 2 times, 1 time with twrp and second time with cwm recovery, both times did a full wipe but however, my network doesnt connect at all, and when i try to search for a network operator i get an error.

This seems very weird to me,

i hope someone got the answer :(

greets!

Edit:

removed sim card and nothing changed, it seems as if it just doesnt recognize it

also got no baseband so im trying to reinstall through kies and then reinstalling this.
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] noidman123:
I believe no baseband is caused by no modem. Maybe you could try flashing the latest n7105 modem and seeing if that helps
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] xForsa:
tried to flash modem, tried to flash pitfile via odin , tried to repair efs but still no baseband.
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] -m3tac0rt3x-:
Maybe it's that (awful) time and you need to wipe everything and go back to stock TW ROM via Odin.

Then, if all went well and you got baseband back, reflash the ROM of your liking + GApps.

Just an update

Well... It all seemed like it would work out well - but it seems to lose connection after a while and empty the APNs.... Then a restart is needed for them to come back and connection work again.

*Sigh* I just wanted a phone that worked....

Either one or another thing or more is broken whatever I try. I got 4G to work on it by getting the apns-conf from Stock rom and using fix to replace the Slimkat apns-conf - but yet no option for 4G to choose in the option - so need to use the *#*#4636#*#* to change to it.

But connection is failing and the APN emptying and too often I need to reset the phone to fix it...

I don't know what is broke... I have to do some testing to see what brakes it.

I'm a little in the dark of what to do - iv seen there is other options on this forum I may try out.

How hard can it be.... Well, so hard that if I had known it - I would have kept my Nokia N8! :)

By the way I got the big Battery - it fixed the issue of not needing to put it in a charger all the time. Now its usable I think - in the way I like it like the old times of Mobile phones not needing a stick all the time for charging. So at least that is fixed and working.
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] fatboyinlycra:
Sounds like you bought a duff phone. I still have the note 2 and use it from time to time. SlimKat still sitting on it - running build 8 like a dream.

Never needed the use of a custom kernel, the Slim devs seemed to get it right, as far as my phone was concerned
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] Jesus is God Almighty:
Sadly I think you are right - I wanted an old 7100 model and ordered such but they send me an 7105... I should have sent it back and found another place to buy one. I'm trying to patch one issue after another on this phone never getting to the golden point of all things working.

Well.... Have been a horrifying experience to turn from Nokia to Samsung, from Symbian to Android. So many features and stability and battery life lost changing to this Phone and system.

But Nokia left Symbian for Microsoft system. Well, I should not complain and just fix the issues, next thing is to try to edit the Agni kernel which may be the problem of loosing my connection now.

[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] Jesus is God Almighty:
Hello, I'm here again - I wonder if I'm locked in - just found myself I see.... In all my issues... I had given up and deleted the Roms and all that... Stupid

I now got a Note 2 GT-7100, so.... I wanted to try again. But of cause iv deleted all my files so I'm searching for Slimkat 4.4.4..... *Sigh*

I had to replace 2 things on the mobil, from my old 7105 - so it is kinda a Frankenstein, the Simcard was broke so I replaced it and it seemed to work - and then I broke the turn on button so had to replace that as well.... But it works it seems.... Just need to find the Slimkat version which I just can't seem to find.

nice to see my old replies so I can remember what was going on in time past iv happily nearly forgotten everything - and now of cause I'm trying to relearn and get it fixed.

Just need Slimkat and Gapps and I should be running, hopefully.... I just need to find it.

I'm kinda lost without the Slimkat rom :/ And the original site don't have it any longer.
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] Jesus is God Almighty:
Anyone knows if I can find the slimkat 4.4.4 on github??? I am on this page now:

SlimRoms/vendor_slim at ng7.0 (github.com)

But I am not so sure overall if it can be done??? As the website does not exist anymore for downloading SlimKat - T0lte-[Build 8]

Should work for

slimkat 4.4.4 for note 2 gt-n7100

as far as I know, which is what I have.

[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] barrygoddard:
Installed perfectly after wiping in CWM.

Video is stretched as in other 4.4 ROMs. The only one I saw where that didn't happen was OMNIrom - that has 2 cameras and one of them worked. It was the black stock camera as opposed to the grey stock camera if that helps. I don't know if the APK can be downloaded for that camera?

After install there was no network, but leaving the ROM sitting on the first set up page for 1-2 minutes brought it in.

The icons are a little large and crammed in though, I don't want to use Nova yet until the Google Now integration is fixed.

I like the small font across the ROM, but would like the option to change icons to 5 in the dock and 5 across the pages.

So far so good on all other other bits, it's a lovely ROM :)

Had installed the beta rom, have to say that this is a super lovely kitkat rom. There is one glitch on my flash, that I am unable to switch on/off LTE connection.

I am on the weekly v.1.3, flashed by CWM v6.0.4.3. LTE connection is available right after flash (4G icon shown on network logo in status bar). But when I select the "Preferred network type", there is no 4G option and only 2G and 3G available. I've read threads in the CM11, saying that there is a bug causing this but not sure if a solution is available. It will be appreciated if someone could shed me some light.

Anyway, this slight tiny flaw doesn't affect my love to slimkat, Great ROM! Many Thanks!!

[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] chinhungchin:
I got the CWM here: http://www.clockworkmod.com/rommanager. Since my first install with weekly 1.1 gives me the issue I described, I thought I should try a bleeding edge version of CWM to ensure the flash is proper. I know the latest one for l0lte is 6.0.4.1, but I took a risk to install the 6.0.4.3 from the at&t variance to give it a shot but well, no luck.

Again, if this doesn't border you (like I was not bordered :) ), you will enjoy the weeklies
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] Gandicela:
I've all the time enjoyed Slimroms, really.

In fact I was on the beta 1, but unable to configure camera to save to sd card then. When I tried restore back to my SlimBean, I faced "unknown baseband" issue. I unrooted, then re-rooted my phone and despite being on CWM 6.0.4.1 now I have "unknown baseband" with SlimKat. I guess recoveries, CWM and TWRP, need updates for KitKat.

If u r saying CWM 6.0.4.3 didn't work, what was the problem? U got network with SlimKat?

sent from my GT-N7105 on SlimRom Build 2.2 Official
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] chinhungchin:
Hum, I have 4G network (+data) right after I flashed with CWM 6.0.4.1 in weeklies v1.1, then if I changed network to 3G , I will no longer be able to switch back to 4G and experience data drops (well, under preferred network, I only got 3G and 2G, these 2 options only).

Then I flashed recovery with CWM 6.0.4.3 (I was a little worries when I was doing that, haha), it is exactly the same issue. I had done some research and seems like there is a bug that google set KitKat's network mode to 8, instead of 7. But I am not an expert on this and still trying to learn.

Oh, btw, my flash is a clean install, 3 wipes, and format "/system".
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] Gandicela:
Thanks.

So u r now on the AT&T CWM 6.0.4.3 recovery. Aren't you?

In fact with 6.0.4.1 to work for KitKat is a hit or miss situation. If yours worked, great, but u may have same issue I faced when going back to 4.3.1. So just exercise extreme caution. It is a lot of work unrooting and re-rooting the phone.

Thanks again.

Sound in games weird

When playing a game, some of the sounds are too quiet and choppy.

Example/repro:

1. Install "Candy crush saga"

2. Play the game

3. experience many ingame sounds to be chopped off or very quiet, compared to regular sounds

Experiencing this since 4.4.2. in all games with many simultaneous sound streams.

Another one:

The power button menu does not open over the task bar / status bar when it is dropped down. Its behind the overlay.

And another one:

No charging animation when turned off.

Also, I'd love to have the "kill app" function for the "back" key (longpress) back.
