Have any of you tested alternatives to Titanium Backup?... I also like doing full wipes... I'd like to reduce the steps I do: 1) restore all user apps with no data; 2) manually select apps to which I want to only restore data; specially when picking, from time to time I miss 1 or 2 apps.

If I could configure only which apps to backup data from the beginning when doing backups, it'd be great.

===========================

EDIT: ok... I just found out that TB has an option for storing "external data"... which is not the same as just app data. -__-

I never encountered similar case since. My flash procedure all the time is ROM>>Gapps>Super SU then reboot. I believe if you can still reboot to recovery, you should be able to flash Super SU.

Mobile network setttings

One issue to report: no "LTE" option during select "Preferred network type".
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] Gandicela:
Based on experiences I faced before, what comes to mind are as follows:

SE Linux change might help, Permissive or Enforcing. It's a free app in PlayStore

Your EFS might have been corrupted, "maybe". Check this out: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1922473

If you know your modem and have backed up a zip file, you may try it out too.

Or simply, u might have just to turn on "LTE" from Quick Settings.
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] fatboyinlycra:
A restore of the previous version brought root back for me.

selinux is set to enforcing, what's yours set to?

I think the problem maybe down to dual boot. Slim is set as my secondary as I read on one thread that two based ROMs don't like being on a secondary.

As soon as I have time I'll back up primary, then install skin as primary, back it yup and then restore it to secondary and see if that fixes it
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] Gandicela:
SELinux is Permissive, which is SlimRom default. I have never tried dualboot - no experience with that yet. What's the advantage of it btw?
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] fatboyinlycra:
the main advantage is if there is a new rom you fancy trying out and playing with you can without wiping out your existing set up

At the moment I have Ditto Note3 on one partition and slimkat on the other.

SE Linux mode Changer switched it back to permissive. Have no idea why it changed to enforcing.

Will have another go at 8.4 (though may as well wait til monday and the next weekly now!)
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] Gandicela:
I'm still on the 4.1 boot loader so I couldn't run those ROMs. Anyway, I won't upgrade either, I'm about to renew phone soon. My next phone is gonna be a nexus, no more of this OEM phones.
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] fatboyinlycra:
As of 6am this morning I was back on single boot slimkat. Last night my phone went haywire and /data corrupted and wouldn't mount. The only thing I could do was Odin a pit file and then flash stock as in trying to fix the problem I accidentally formatted my external card (damn you cwm and your stupidly small text) losing my backups in the process
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] Gandicela:
It's all sorted now, I hope Mate.
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] fatboyinlycra:
More or less. Still sorting or all my preferences, getting greenify to hibernate everything. Still some apps I need to install because when Google restored spots it restored all the apps from my kids tablets and not my apps. So I had about 20 princess drawing and makeup games but no xda app, trickster or ESS file explorer. Rebuilding the music collection (from my library on my nas) is taking a while tho as I had 3000 songs. Maybe it was a blessing in disguise as it's helped to get rid of a load of stuff I never listened to

@prbassplayer not sure why but high frame rate on the video camera won't work. Just get the message HFR is not supported for the selected resolution. This happens with all resolutions. HFR works on the note 2 with tw based ROMs. Am I missing something?
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] Gandicela:
Just thinking and perhaps sharing, that I actually don't use Greenify. To sleep any app, I set to disable "Keep Awake" option under Privacy. I always thought it works the same but without another app to install. In any case I trace whichever app that misbehaves draining my battery using BBS.
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] fatboyinlycra:
[MENTION=4342023]Gandicela[/MENTION] would you try using HFR on video see of it is common or just something on mine?
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] Gandicela:
I must set high frame rate to OFF, otherwise it says the resolution isn't supported.
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] RobbyRobbb:
I just noticed that all my videos recorded in this rom only have sound coming out of the right channel. I can't find this problem listed anywhere so i assume it's not common. What should i do to help fix this?

Also, when changing settings in the camera app the view of the screen will sometimes change to a non-standard format; everything on-screen becomes a lot higher than it should be.

I'm now with weekly 8.8 build and I fully support the Slim Launcher. And knowing it's just released, I would put here a wish list for this launcher going forward.

1. Option to disable the home screen page indicator

2. Option to disable Dock

3. Option for a looping app drawer

Think I may need to try again. All I get now when updating Apps already installed is not enough space. Theres 26 gig on the card and 6 gig on the phone spare. very strange.
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] fatboyinlycra:
How many apps you got? I ha have in the region of 130 but none of them are games or require large amounts of data to be downloaded. Have you repartitioned your internal memory and made one too small?

General Feedback

Everyone involved in this ROM

Just a quick note to express my gratitude. I updated to this ROM from SOKP 4.4.2 for no reason other than I wanted 4.4.4 and was trying to avert my attention from the Note 4 albeit temporarily.

I am loving this ROM and its clean, lean, feeling. Everything seems to do as it should, all of my key apps work (navigation mainly!) and I even managed to find additional help within this thread for boosting low audio from speaker / phone calls.

All in all a very happy galaxy Note II (LTE) user - just don't know what to do about upgrades but I won't open that pandoras box within this thread!

Thanks to everyone who contributes, I am a lurker and a user but I try to help when I can.

Cheers
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] BorgCymru:
One thing I have noticed over the years, not just with this phone, is that even a total wipe/factory reset still leaves old folders and files behind. Even after a new ROM install the is still junk left behind. Any way of getting rid of everything ?

On another not would you recommend formatting the memory card in the phone using the phone or on a computer to FAT ?

Thanks.
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] Gandicela:
When u mentioned upgrades, and IF u r referring to ROM upgrades/updates, it happens weekly. Gapps are very frequently updated specifically for TRDS feature. See here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2792842

Oh nadgers. I think I formatted system and data and all them as well. Would that cause it.

[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] fatboyinlycra:
You went with n7100 again instead of t0lte. If you have the n7105 you have a 4g phone. The n7100 is not 4g and the two are not compatible. Weekly 8.9 is the way to go!
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] BorgCymru:
Not this time :) Deff used the right file as I used the Stable again. I'd kept it on my SD card. But I do with there was a different link for both types in the main post as it still goes straight to the 4G version. :)

Likely not possible, Mate. It might not even be due to ROM as stock are all the same. I've searched for this option back even from my HTC days, but to no avail.

[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] fatboyinlycra:
How big is your flat? Our house is narrow but tall (3 stories) and I get WiFi everywhere.

I would suggest you investigate which channel is least congested (there's an app for that called WiFi analyser) and change the channel setting on your router

You can flash SuperSU zip file through recovery.

If that fails, a complete wipe and reinstall

[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] Gandicela:
I don't think it will work
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] fatboyinlycra:
You're right. Different frameworks not compatible. It's either one or the other.

If you want the best of both worlds you need to look at dual booting which I did for a while. To do that you need a custom recovery that supports it. There are 2 that I know of, one by derteufel and the other by Rogers b11. You also need their custom kernels and to follow the instructions very carefully

Loss of LTE option

Guys and Girls some help please if possible.

I have searched the thread and I see some posts about others who have lost their LTE option. This seems to be the case with me too. I have confirmed that it isn't the sim card by using it in another phone. I have further ruled out the 'network' but using a known 4G connecting sim inside my GT-N7105. I can confirm that it DOESNT get a 4G connection either.

I have tried to follow the explanations but I am thus far not successful in restoring my 4G / LTE option.

I have also tried to install SuperSU which doesn't seem to be installed but that keeps failing also.

Any help is gratefully appreciated.

Cheers

[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] Gandicela:
Can u try to add LTE toggle under Quick Settings?
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] wberesford:
Thanks for your helpful response. :good:

I didn't know about this 'switch' before I posted the question. I have now added it, and I can confirm that it is selected now. However, I don't believe I am getting a LTE/4G connection as my phone won't browse the internet unless I am connected to my wifi.

When I select the LTE switch/icon it changes the network options that I have, i.e. It deselects 2G or 3G as choices yet it doesn't seem to actually connect me to a 'data connection'.

I hope I am explaining this sufficiently as I appreciate the support / help.

WB
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] Gandicela:
Very rarely, I get lost connection as well. A reboot helps all the the time on those rare cases. But I will never be sure if your case is the same as mine.
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] wberesford:
Unfortunately a reboot doesn't fix things - I have rebooted on a whole host of occasions as I have swapped out SIM cards etc to ensure that it wasn't my SIM or network.

Still no LTE/4G connectivity.

WB
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] fatboyinlycra:
Are you sure you have data switched on?

Have you checked your APNs?
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] wberesford:
Hello fella,

I have checked the things that are obvious to me but once we start talking about checking APN's etc then I get a bit lost. I know where they are etc but I wouldn't know what is correct and what isn't.

Also, apologies for the delay in responding to your helpful suggestion, I am on the other side of the planet to where your flag suggests you are.

Rgds

WB
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] Dirk2007:
I used to have this problem for some time, drives one to bits. I manage to solve it by installing the app Notification Toggle

After installing make sure in in its settings, Connectivity section, to activate RadioInfo settings. Makes you end up with direct access to the network settings.

Cheers.
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] wberesford:
Thanks for all of the replies people. I decided to just rebuild using the latest weekly release. Guess what........I now have an LTE connection. I think I may well have managed to have enabled a rouge APN. I say this because I started the morning with LTE, swapped out the SIM cards so that I could enable a couple of things that are tied to my UK mobile number. When I swapped them back out, i.e. returned to my Australian SIM card I had no LTE. I checked the APN settings and I found a rouge APN. I took the plunge and swapped things around and the LTE connectivity returned. Rogue APN deleted!

Anyway, the Note II is running brilliantly, AGAIN!

Thanks

This week's build is labeled as "Slim-t0lte-4.4.4.build.8.14-WEEKLY-7996 ", when in fact it should be Weekly 8.16. I think this is just a file naming typo error.

Wifi forgetting password fix

This Rom is amazing, fast and stable with agni kernel.

Just wanted to let anyone who's having issues with Wi-Fi forgetting password or not connecting after a reboot know that the simple fix for me was to go to settings press Wi-Fi press the three dots in Wi-Fi and go to advanced, then remove the tick from scanning always available and then reboot. Wi-Fi should work fine after that.

Found this out after installing this rom and gapps fresh two times and then completely formatting phone and ext sd card and tried installing Rom again with the same result the same Wi-Fi issue. Hope this basic solution helps someone else out who's having the same issue.

Awesome Rom!! :good:

Thanks for such a great ROM... Keeping my Note 2 alive until I upgrade to a Nexus 6!

My stock ROM was basically unusable due to incredibly massive lag!
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] PerthSGS2:
Just a few things though...

If my battery is completely dead and I need to charge, the display stays on with an image of a battery the

whole

time and I have to boot into recovery or download mode to get the phone to boot up. Power button does nothing...

And... Ever since I started using this ROM, I noticed the battery takes a lot longer to charge, and it is getting worse.

These are the 2 main issues I can think of atm.

---------- Post added at 06:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:17 PM ----------

OK so I saw a post a few months back with the same problem and they were suggested to try agni kernel. Can I flash back if I encounter problems, and is there any work around other than installing another kernel?
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] fatboyinlycra:
Yes make sure you pick the right agni kernel though. In order to flash back just reflash the ROM and wipe cache and dalvik
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] PerthSGS2:
AGNi pureSTOCK 4.4.x N7105 - this one right?

I actually flashed it before but I think I was stuck in a bootloop so I tried out Lollipop, got sick of the bugs (early development - expected), and now I'm trying to get into CWM using the Nameless v2.0 Lollipop rom.

I thought it would still be hold pwr, home and volume up but it doesn't seem to be working.

EDIT:Nevermind I just downloaded the CWM APP instead.
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] PerthSGS2:
OK so i flashed SlimKat v9 and tried to install agni but it's still bootlooping, any suggestions?
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] fatboyinlycra:
No that one is for touch wiz ROMs you need the Agni pure cm another good one is devil

---------- Post added at 04:32 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:31 PM ----------

Sounds like the wrong one.

Wipe cache and dalvik and reflash the SlimKAT ROM
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] atmos929:
Keep in mind that AGNI requires to be flashed on a new ROM install... it means that if you first flash (for example) Devil kernel and then AGNI, it won't work, even if they are the correct kernels.

I mention this because I wonder if flashing AGNI stock and then AGNI CM will work... please let us know. If not, you will need to do a fresh install first as I mentioned.
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] Dirk2007:
Flashed the Agni on SlimKat 9. Now amazing battery time, the old Nokia times do come to mind.
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] PerthSGS2:
I was thinking of doing it too, any cons you've noticed or are they all pros (will flash CM this time :))?
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] Dirk2007:
No cons found in 48 hours of use. See screenshot for battery time this morning :)

[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] noidman123:
No, if you want to use devil kernel, you'd flash that kernel & ONLY that kernel. If you want to use agni kerne; you have to flash it over a clean/fresh rom install since it just patches the stock kernel.

i am using slim on devil kernel anyway. just flashed it after install. no probs
