snapchat is not working.

netflix doesnt work. any solutions?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] prbassplayer:
Snap chat I'm looking in to it. What's wrong with Netflix? What build what kernel? Bug report?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] snwahs:
I had a similar issue with Netflix, deleting the app and reinstalling solved my issue.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mabuis:
I've went from 4.4.2 ASOP to 4.3 TW and vice versa with no problems using titanium backup
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] shoeprano27:
sorry. idk how to do a bug report. im on 5.2 weekly. everything stock (kernel is 3.0.64-SlimKat-g4aa46de)

the only fix i know of is to delete the app, and watch it. once i exit the app, id have to delete and reinstall, everytime.

---------- Post added at 09:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:04 PM ----------

this did solve it, but only, everytime after i exit the app, itll give me an error so id have to repeeat your soultion lol
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] prbassplayer:
Reproduce the problem, use bugreport features in Slim Center
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] shoeprano27:
wow. that was super easy. never knew how to do that until now. thanks!

attached is the .zip file for the bugreport.

im not sure if i did it right by "reproducing" but all i did was opened up netflix to get the error, pressed ok and went straight to slimcenter.

and btw, my phone takes super clear pictuers, but when i send it to another person through text, they get it super blurry. any ideas why?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] dayh8:
I've had this issue with Netflix, and have also had an issue where apps would uninstall by themselves and then when I would try reinstall through the Play Store, I would get either an error or a message that there wasn't enough storage. For both situations, I've found that doing a search with my file browser reveals a bunch of leftover files from the apps (data, dalvic, others) that, because the app was not properly uninstalled (or in Netflix's case because of whatever error trigged its issue) are still there and causing the problem. I delete them all (including my TiBackup files, since the apps I have issues with are all web based) and I fresh reinstall from the Play Store is good to go. The other shops doing this were Amazon and Twitter. Since build 5, Amazon has not done this. Twitter did it once. Netflix has been for me but the problem above was affecting my fiancée's phone.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] prbassplayer:
Unistall Netflix, reboot to recovery format cache and dalvik reboot and install Netflix and check ;)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] dayh8:
Speak of the devil, twitter wasn't there again this morning. Blah.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] shoeprano27:
That worked! Thanks boss! BTW, does anyone know how to completely format an SD card? I have a sandisk 64gb and cannot format it. Tried many "solutions" and no matter what, old data is still on it. I hope its not corrupted :/
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mulletcutter:
Try to format it in recovery? Maybe computer. Formatting it in android hardly works for me.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] azngujuonfire:
Can't wake phone, have to do battery pull

Has anyone else had this issue? Tried searching but only hits i got was regarding music playback related to screen.

I will lock my phone by pushing power button, put into my pocket, then the next time i go to check the time or send a quick text or something, the screen won't turn on. If i have a notification, the notification light will pulse in and out but the screen won't turn on, and I have to do a battery pull.

It happens often enough that it gets annoying, so if anyone has a fix or any suggestions, i'd like to hear them! I'm on Build 5.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] prbassplayer:
Stock kernel?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] lennathi:
Hey there, I'm sad to say it's likely toast.

It's a known issue with SanDisk I lost my 32gb sdcard recently, there's a lot of reports on it with a quick Google search.

Plus side! You can probably rma it via SanDisk, they acknowledged the issue and are accepting claims for failed cards.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] azngujuonfire:
Yes stock kernel, sorry i forgot to mention that
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] prbassplayer:
Grab a bugreport see what shows up.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] exploitz:
I get the same problem. Its been a persistent error for the past few builds. I can actually get my phone to wake up eventually my continually pressing the home button, then tapping the screen for about fifteen seconds before it decides to respond to my touch. Still don't know what causes it tho.

Hey [MENTION=3877985]prbassplayer[/MENTION]

Just want to thank you for all your hard work. I've been following the thread and on every weekly build, now on the latest, and it seems the most streamlined experience thus far. Most amazing battery life I've yet to see on my GN2! On stock kernel, with 200± apps, I am using Greenify to tame a few hogs. As for the kernel, I've tried a few tweaks: stock settings, raising the read ahead between 512 & 1024 (with the latter, governor set to zzmove, I/O to deadline) and there is a definite boost reading from memory over disk.

On stock, I have random (partial) network connection drops. Example, loading the forum via Tapatalk client will hang, as will page loading in Chrome - some pages often never resolve, reloading results in failure even after clearing browser cache - all the while LTE is showing 3-4 bars without any visible network activity. Haven't a lock on this but I'll attempt to log. I understand the general sentiment about benchmarks, but for the little information they do provide, Antutu hit 22809 where I was accustomed to seeing nothing over 16000~. Areas of highlight were better RAM function and 3D graphics handling; for what's it worth.

I figured you might be pleased to hear as much, if not more, of the good - and overall benefits made possible by your labours - than the bad. I may not comment often, as I've little over which to complain. Hope my gratitude has not spammed your thread! Again, Thank You!

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] prbassplayer:
Thanks for the kind words. As for the connectivity not sure, a team member with the international variant mentioned some tweaks that helps with his speeds. Maybe help with it not sure, need to speak to him about it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] tinydynamite00:
That would be excellent! I'm sure there's some SQL db line I can tweak in Global, but wanted to see first if there is another known workaround. I'm not sure about which binary is acted upon, but I've read about uncapping 3g, upload speeds under the hood. It's usually done with a baked in kernel tweaker, however, I'd like to know how it works and do it myself. Noting the delay just now, packets are being sent, it's the incoming that 'disconnect'. Something with TCP congestion, maybe a move from cubic...and then I'm stuck lol Thanks much, man, for all your help!

Addendum: Right now it may just be an issue with Tapatalk. Trying to post reply results in frequent server failures to connect to forum. Opened WebView and forum opens without hesitation.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] shoeprano27:
im on latest build (5.6 weekly) and without changing anything and using it stock slim, there are some apps i cant download in the playstore, like citibank and espn sports center. itll say that the apps arent compatible with my device. is there a fix for this? snapchat alos STiLL records for only 5 seconds and stops.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] zain0300:
yeah its because of the DPI, either change your DPI to 320 or use MultiDPI Play Store.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] prbassplayer:
If you used our addons it has multidpi hack should work fine. Remove Google account reboot and readd and verify
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] shoeprano27:
when you say addons, you mean slimbean AIO gapps? if so, thats what ive always used and im still not able to download citibank and espn sportscenter app. :(
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] prbassplayer:
Hope you mean SlimKat addons. If still a problem remove account reboot and readd.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] svir:
I have a question. Since I've switched to this rom, all spam messages are now synchronized to my inbox by using the stock email apk. That goes for yahoo, mail, hlotmail etc. Is there a way to correct that?

Thanks in advance.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] soulre2:
Goto Settings>Apps>All

Look for Google Play Store

Force Stop the program

Clear cache

That should fix your problem
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] AngryDinosaur:
Is there a all kill button for Recents?

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] anthonyp326:
Is there a way to go back to original aosp recent s instead of this modified version

no, unless you use exposed framework
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] anthonyp326:
thanks..what specific do u do in xposed can u help..? and how do u like how it runs on ur T-Mobile note 2 ..looking to do the same on mine. but don't know what ROM is best for aosp
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] zain0300:
all ROMs are good it all depends on your taste. Slim in pretty fast, smooth and stable. Some features that it lacks can be brought back by using Gravitybox, XBlast and bunch of other xposed modules. Gravitybox can bring back your AOSP recents style.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Coug76:
I love Omni (for function and philosophy reasons). I really like slim and Liquid Smooth as they bring some cool stuff to the table.

They all have great qualities and "best" is what you decide it is.

Hey guys,

I just installed and am unable to change camera focus mode from continuous. I had the same issue on LiquidSmooth. Any idea how to fix this?

Weekly for this device this time sorry guys

http://slimroms.net/index.php/changelog/481-stable-6-0
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Sean Sounds:
Installed the latest weekly. A huge thanks for making the Google cards a dark grey. I've been wishing for that since November but didn't want to seem picky. Careful everyone. The latest Google search update will take away the dark theme in Google search. This Slim ROM continues to be very smooth and fast. My hats off to the Slim team.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] agentaaron:
do you mind if I ask you if you did a full wipe...or did you just flash over build 5? If I flash over build 5, should I update Gapps to the 4.4.4?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Sean Sounds:
Hi agentaaron. I always do a full wipe when installing each weekly so that I never have any issues with them. I always use the AIO or Full Gapps and I always give 5 minutes at the setup screen to ensure everything is properly installed.

At first, I used the "4.4.4. build.6-112" Full Gapps and everything went fine. It's only when I updated Google Search in the play store that changed it back to normal. I removed the update to get back to the dark theme again.

However, I've now installed the "BETA.4.4.4.build.6.0-118" Full Gapps (which contains the dark version of the Google search update (3.5.15)) and now everything is fine. There is no longer an update available since it's already installed. Should be fine until Google releases another updated to Google search. :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] agentaaron:
Thanks, i did go ahead and did a full wipe and install. I dont usually use the dark slim so I am not to concerned about the Google search...just did not want to run into unneeded problems with the ROM.

Cheers!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] skischool:
excellent

Flashed rel. 6 this morning , had to take minute to thank all the people involved with the ROM. This is simply the best ROM I ever tested , and believe me I tested my share! This has everything covered , every detail. The dark theme is perfect , stability , options ... Just a huge bravo!

I'll be using this as my daily.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mluciano:
hi everyone

i did not read the whole thread and this is my first nightly/weekly rom i flashed ( i really liked the rom by the way )

so you guys talking about full wipe when the new weekly comes out and here is the stupid question coming

when you say full wipe you mean data/cache/dalvik cache/factory reset... like flashing new rom like clean install and then install all apps setup everything... every week

or just do what?

sorry for this question but i want to make sure how you guys do it exactly

i know how to flash a rom but almost 3 years i did not flash anything and a lot of things changed since than and this rom is the first rom i flashed

so i had to ask and bother you guys

i really dont want to do install apps and setup again but if i have to i will

second question is that any theme engine for this rom ( like cm 11 theme chooser) i can install? i search on google and xda but there is a lot of things to read and check

thanks
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] agentaaron:
I use titanium backup all the time and have it scheduled to do auto backups 3 times a week (Mon/Wed/Fri). Even when I do a full wipe, it takes about 20 minutes to restore my 80ish apps with all data still in tacked. I was not using the previous weeklies and was coming from the last stable (build 5)

(if im just flashing between nightlies or weeklies, i will usually just flash over the top and factory reset later if i am experiencing unusual behavior)

This is my full wipe process:

Wipe data/factory reset

Wipe cache

Format system (mounts and storage)

Install ROM

Install gapps

Wipe dalvik cache (advanced)

Reboot

As for the theme chooser, you may find one that somewhat works...but there must be a reason the slim team has left it out for the time being
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mluciano:
thanks for quick reply

i will use titanium backup and about theme chooser i found one you can install with xposed installer its HKTHEME MANAGER and i just tried one aosp theme and works perfect

thanks

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] svavrek:
So happy to finally have Slim back. For over a year, I had tonuse a ROM with WiFi calling... Updated tonight to 4.4.2 and two complaints that probably are easy fixes but I can't seem to get it.

1. In call earpiece volume is very quiet until I enable then disable speakerphone

2. Missy keyboard with the Note2 number line on top....
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Cubicsilver:
Easy. Press volume down then up to fix. Add boeffla app and adjust the volume.

To get the top row numbers, just download another keyboard. SwiftKey allows resizing and top row numbers.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mabuis:
Is there a way to turn on the heads up notification?

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] prbassplayer:
Anyone else having issues?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] agentaaron:
Got a lock within seconds on the latest weekly sitting on my couch...I have dirty flashed the last two weeklies

I could hope for more than 11 out of the 19 sats found...but it will work

Maybe try and wipe and reflash...make sure and wipe dalvik cache after installing ROM (whether clean or dirty flashing)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] agentaaron:
I am facing pretty high battery drain the last two weeks...I am certainly not blaming the ROM entirely, but I cannot think of any new apps I have installed.

I had switched over to the 4.4.4 AOKP ROM and back over to Slim...so it was a fresh install. I unplug at about 7:00am and my battery is at about 70% by lunch...about 30% by the time I get out of work at 5:30ish with little to moderate usage (before I had this issue, I was still about 65% at 5:30pm)

using WLD I am seeing that there is a kernel wake lock "mdm_hsic_pm0" that is keeping the phone from deep sleeping. When googling this wakelock, it states that its usually a kernel problem. I am using SetCPU to manage the clock and governor, I am underclocked to 1200MHz/200MHz and using ondemand/cfq.

...is there another governor compatible with slim? should I have something set differently to avoid this wakelock?

Thanks for all your hard work on this...by far it is the smoothest, most dependable ROM I have come across!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] prbassplayer:
Fairly sure it's a network thing. Either wifi or mobile network. Using any voip apps? Any messaging apps? Maybe try a new baseband?

Edit: Thinking about it a little more mdm sounds a lot like qcom wakelock. You guys have 2 things qcom the mobile modem and gps, I'd bet it's the first one causing the wakelock. I'd like to also point out that even if you did full wipe and restored with Tibu or similar then you could have restored the problematic app/data.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Mnementh666:
I think the mdm_hsic_pm0 is a relatively widespread issue on KitKat. Usually if I power down, pull battery, wait a couple minutes, then power up, it goes away.

Edit: unless I'm thinking of another wake lock issue, which is possible.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] AngryDinosaur:
Camera focus mode is buggy, it doesn't set when select a different focus mode
