I was having trouble with MMS through hangouts, switched to the MMS app and it works fine. Don't know if adaway was the culprit. But might check into it
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] arckt2:
I figured one of the blocked hosts might be either a T-Mobile or Google proxy, or something.

Now its just the nearsighted and unable to focus camera. I'm gonna take it apart and clean the lens to see if that's the issue, I doubt its a problem with the physical camera though.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] arckt2:
Just took apart the camera and cleaned the lens/plastic covering. No luck with the out of focus camera. Is this a 4.4.2 issue?

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Marty_Since87:

Anyone else having trouble with an ibolt xprodock? No audio on mine and grayed out in settings. Different kernel maybe?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] nrp32209:
Noticed one other problem, happens to be the only one I have and once its resolved this will be the first rom I've ever had on any phone that is perfect. It seems like my data goes in and out, but the icon never disappears. Apps just behave like my data goes in and out like YouTube stops playing and ibhave to toggle HD on and off.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] arckt2:
Welp, turns out it was a hardware issue. Swapped out a new camera today and works good as new. Slimkat still rules.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] nickmcghee:
So, first let me say I love SlimKat. But I am having a couple problems. After installing it, I can't boot into recovery. Whether its by using ROM Manager, SuperSU, or the traditional volume keys+power button, the phone either doesn't reboot, or just boots as normal. Another issue I'm having now is that SuperSU can't install its binaries and Titanium is telling me I have no root access.

Can someone out there help me with this?

Edit: I also have NO data. I believe it may be a kernel issue but I'm not 100% sure if that's right or if it is, how to fix it. I love this ROM. Is there anyone that can help me with these issues?

Thanks for your hard work. For me it turned out to be a faulty camera hardware - swapping out a replacement completely fixed it.

I am re-installing as we speak to try this. I actually read this on the Gummy Rom thread right before you posted it. I was running PAC-rom last night because I needed something that worked, but it ended up COMPLETELY wiping my internal storage (thankfully I back up all of my pictures) for some reason and was a HUGE battery drainer. I will update in about 15 minutes with status of my phone.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] nickmcghee:
Thanks for the advice. I'm good to go.

Group messaging

I have searched a couple of forums and etc but I cannot get group messaging to work on this ROM. I receive separate texts when there is a group mms going on.

Is it something that I cannot utilize with this phone on slimkat? Any advice would be helpful, thank you so much!

I got a notification about stable 4 being released but i'm not going to install until someone confirms that the call volume is loud just like weekly 3.6 which I'm still currently on because of call volume.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mulletcutter:
I'm on it right now, but haven't had a call. You could always flash and try
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Marty_Since87:
You're right, I was just being lazy lol. I just hate flashing new weeklies to just go back to the old one, but I'll give this a shot when I get home.

Can you not modify volume with Boeffla sound?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mecheng:
I came over from TW based ROMs, and am liking the AOSP base for a change. Very clean feel, great responsiveness and killer battery life. So a big thank you to the Slim Devs.

The only thing I'm not adjusting to very well is the email client. I have a few Exchange server rules active to sort incoming mail into different folders. What I have found is that:

Only the messages that stay in the default inbox generate a "new mail" notice in the notification drop down, even though the other folders are configured to sync via push..... This is causing me to miss or delay in responding to time sensitive messages....

Short of disabling all of my sorting rules, and going back to a cluttered inbox - has anyone found a workaround? Can the email.apk and exchange.apk from touchwhiz be modded to run on an AOSP ROM?

Ice much prefer the stock asop or TW clients over any third party email APPS.

Seems that Boeffla/viper do very well for headphone jack, speakerphone and bluetooth, but I have not found any settings that apply specifically to the earpiece speaker......

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Marty_Since87:
There's a option to bring the call gain up to 31 but it doesn't work for me. The call volume on 3.6 weekly is loud on its own so there wasn't any need for Boeffla sound other than for music.

No Signal! Help please!

I just came over from Jedi Master X2 to this, so far looks and feels awesome, other than the no signal issue. I enabled root and I changed SELinux status to permissive, but still no signal. Can someone please help me!?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] sValtman17:
Might be your recovery, if you are not using twrp 2.7.0.1, try that 1st. I am on the 4.12 bootloader and running the latest stable 4 build without any issues. The rom is my new dd. No going elsewhere for me. I love every aspect of this 4.4.2 rom. I've tried all the other 4.4.2 roms and this rocks!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] prbassplayer:
On latest build it should be set to permissive already.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] azngujuonfire:
I just flashed back to stock 4.3, rooted, flashed again with cwm so maybe that was the problem. I will reflash with latest twrp and see how it goes.

Also baseband shows up as unknown still and i cannot add APN as they won't save, no APNs listed by default.

---------- Post added at 07:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:02 PM ----------

Set recovery to TWRP 2.7.0.1 or w/e is the latest. Did full factory reset, wipe dalvik cache, cache, system and internal sd card for good measure. Then flashed slimkat build 4 and still the same issue. No access point names, no data. Baseband version still says unknown. Even when i flash the latest modem...

I was running RC3 and it was great. Call volume was loud. I upgraded to the latest build and I can barely hear anyone during a phone call. I wish RC3 was not taken down (or I wish I didn't delete it off my computer,lol).

Also, this latest build had some camera freezes.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Marty_Since87:
Have you tried installing xvolume from xposed module as cronuslsd suggested? I haven't done it yet, I will try in a few and post my results.

Edit: Call volume is still low, -__- guess it's back to 3.6

Edit: forget it, I for to activate xvolume lol.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] azngujuonfire:
Wow... Was flashing the N7100 version of the ROM instead of the t0ltemo version... Sorry guys!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Marty_Since87:
For some reason for my volume to get louder during phone calls I have to hit volume down once in order to get xvolume to work, better than nothing.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] apicia:
I looked around and found a backup I had made with RC3. Restored it without wiping data and only had to reinstall a few apps (and delete a few) and go through the settings again to see what needed to be tweaked. Runs like a champ with super loud phone calls. No camera freezes either. Maybe the camera was a bad flash or the app needed a cache/data wipe, but I'm happy back on RC3.

Thanks for suggesting this module, I totally forgot to even look in xposed module for a volume mod. That low call volume was driving me crazy. My only minor problem now is when ever I install a app I get a "Google play services has stopped." message.

Camera freeze and duplicate corrupt files

I'm having a weIrd issue in RLS 4. occasionally the camera will freeze and only a reboot will fix it.

After a Reboot the camera works again but the pictures in my gallery have doubled and tripled. There are ghost picture files that aren't real. The same happens to my notifications. There is one copy that's good and multiple ghost copies that show up but aren't playable.

Any idea?

Thanks

I can tell you it's not the Roms your not doing something right or its your phone. Data works great if you do a full wipe and flash with the latest ClockworkMod recovery.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] prbassplayer:
It is the rom, or all roms it seems. Only affecting a few per device though
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] OmegaBlaze:
Try the N7105 version of the ROM
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] SolaceKane:
HAVEN'T TRIED IT WITH THIS vERSION OF THE ROM YET BUT FOR EVERYONE HAVING DATA ISSUES PLEASE TRY THIS FIRST:

Go to settings-->in wireless & networks section select "More..."

---->select "Mobile Networks"---->select Access point names---> and try switching between the last three choices:

T-mobile US

T-Mobile US LTE

T-Mobile US LTE IPv6

I messed around with this and ended up selecting tmobile US LTE and got my signal back.

Also I remember reading on other roms i had flashed that when you initially flash the rom before setting anything up after reboot from recovery youre supposed to let the phone sit for at least 10 minutes sp [hone can get your areas network data. does that hold true for this rom? I ask becuase after the second time of flashing and then changing the APN my phone works fine now. or it could just be coincidence. can any of you who are having issues try the above and confirm this?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] prbassplayer:
It's the same rom O_o why would it be different.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] SolaceKane:
Im not a developer just an ordinary user so i wouldnt know if there were any internal differences or not, just stating that i havent tried 4.4 yet and on 4.3 what i tried to get my signal working, thats all .. :confused:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Rich508:
i dont know why it happens but i never had a problem with slimroms installing . when i install 4.4 it installs fine it boots up but searches for network then you have to connect to wifi i already tried leaving the phone on to see if it connects but the problem is there is no APN listed and you can't add one because it won't save..and this is the same problem im having with other 4.4 roms even CM11 shows no sim card pops up.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] prbassplayer:
I believe its the same rom except 2 binaries. And the problem is present on all 3 t0lte devices I build for.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] carlgraser:
The unofficial cm 11 4.4 for the Galaxy S3 has the dialer that looks up number info that is not in your contacts list any chance of getting something like that for this ROM? Also any chance of adding support for the Boeffla Sound Control to the Kernel? That app make the Volume much louder. Something that is definitely need it with AOSP Roms.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] prbassplayer:
No we are sticking with aosp dialer for now. You are more than welcome on using that apk (assuming it works). Kernel already supports Boeffla sound.
