Thanks,

I try it.
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] SwimDrewid:
You probably have to flash supersu like the other 4.4 alphas.

Check the omni thread for download

I've got no network, thus unable to make a phone call. Wifi is good. I've manually tried setting my APN, but baseband still appears unknown.

---------- Post added at 08:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:21 PM ----------

I think SuperSU works, built in - Apps and ADB by default enabled.

did you flash with twrp? people have been haveing issues even with the new update on twrp theh dont get cell data. but on cwmr they doo.
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] contramundi:
for 4.4 its advisable to use cwm recovery (6.0.4.x or higher) instead of twrp, most of the issues seem to occur when using twrp.

i have done it but still don't work
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] mean-machine:
I tried flashing it using TWRP 2.5.0.0 and it failed. Then after flashing CWMR 6.4.0.1, everything went ok. Data, WiFi, camera and pretty much everything else is working ok. I came from SlimBean 4.3 Stable without even doing a full wipe and only the usual dalvik/cashe wipe.
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] Gandicela:
Well done for you Mate. I guess not all GT-N7105 are made the same. I did full wipe for my case, but failed with network. I certainly can wait, as perfection takes time.

[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] marcyspark:
With version from 16 November I have everything running fine except for proximity sensor in calls. Everything else is great. FWIW I'm in UK on EE 4gee using Dalvik (for now due to compatibility of many apps).

[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] XQuilet:
Is this thread dying or the ROM is now more or less stable that's why not much is replying anymore. Hope the development of this ROM for n7105 won't divert to some other new phone model.

---------- Post added at 08:25 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:07 AM ----------

On the ROM after full charge I use battery calibration to clear battery.bin and phone is on for 1hr 9min

22min screen use for web browsing xda just to reply msg in this thread and fb messenger. battery drop to 86% is this normal? Or I am over sensitive?
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] Gandicela:
Regarding this thread, different people will look at it either way as you've mentioned. The ROM imho is far stable now with this RC2, but also i see that there are just lesser users now because new devices has replaced older devices, like our GT-N7105.

Regarding the battery, I would say what you have isn't normal for me, but that is just me. I suggest you just give it another day of 1 full discharge and charge cycle. In my case however, I go thru extra lengths of individually customizing under Security\Privacy Guard every single app that I want to keep the device awake. Under Google Services for example, I disable "keep awake" for Google Play Services and Google Playstore. At the end of the day, ever since, I only last ~24hrs per full charge.

---------- Post added at 11:24 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:17 AM ----------

There are many other system apps that I never use, but aren't listed under slimcenter's list of removable apps. So I got to use Titanium backup and without that supersu it just couldn't uninstall. But it's true also that this FC the slim file explorer.
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] prbassplayer:
Dev on this platform is, I think in a slow state because it's probably one of the most stable on slim right now (which is great as its allowed me to mess with this z1 :D). I also need to get a small bug wrinkled out of mako for stable.

As for battery give it a cycle or 2 without flashing, should get better life.
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] Gandicela:
Is there any plan actually to merge SlimPie into SlimKAT? Just a question.
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] bearusa:
Could really do with SlimKat on sm-n9005 note 3..

SM-N9005 with XDA Premium......that is all......
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] prbassplayer:
Thing dev for that is still early (no nightlies right now afaik). We are looking in to supporting it "soon" but no date yet. Meanwhile there's a unofficial builds going around
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] Gandicela:
Just sharing with you my battery stats, Bro. As I've said, I never go beyond 24 hours per charge and I'm very happy with that.
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] Traqic:
RC3 is up and SlimPIE is back. There's also a google dialer substitue fully integrated and a new slim wallpaper and app themer, more work on that front in the future. This is probably the last weekly before a stable release. Happy flashing!
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] pemell:
I know I might be biased but this stable rom just released is great. Never been on a more stable custom rom. Loaded it with 100+ apps and made some major tweaks and not a single issue. Battery life is also great.
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] Gandicela:
In fact, this release just raised the bar higher. As a user, I haven't observed such stability as b4. Of course minor thing I wished to have is the 'all clear' button under the recent app window.

Battery is indeed great, though I haven't had 1 full cycle yet.
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] Lazar81:
You have done a great job.. again.. No other ROM fits my daily requirements that perfect... But i miss some options in the Kitkat Version.. is there a way to change LCD Density? What about the great Power Widget - i don't like the tiles? And the lovely Kill-All-Button would make it perfect... again..

Perhaps i overread some parts in this thread.. but is it possible that "Interface"-menu was completly removed from Kitkat?
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] prbassplayer:
LCD changer will be back soon, meanwhile Edit build.prop.

Power widgets might never be back, not sure yet.

Kill all won't be back
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] Lazar81:
THX... that was very fast... Is there a reason for not bringing back PW und KA?
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] prbassplayer:
Because android has qs. When power widgets where created (back in Froyo days) was because android native method was that so people made it better. We don't think it's needed new. Kill all is just useless, absolutely no need for it lmao
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] Pandur2000:
You can also use the app Power Toggles. Great replacement for power widgets.
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] Lazar81:
checked it.. Really Nice.. thank you... :)
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] Gandicela:
Within the ROM itself, under hardware button customization, u can do similar actions as that of Power Toggles. Yes I've used Power Toggles too, but since this feature in SlimKat, I don't need it anymore.
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] Gandicela:
Another option for Power Toggles replacement is using Nova gestures, provided u have the premium app. There the gestures can be made to point to a few SlimRom shortcuts. Also the SlimPie, u may point some buttons to SlimRom shortcuts.

[MENTION=4342023]Gandicela[/MENTION] did you read: http://www.slimroms.net/index.php/faq/slimbean/414-will-you-add-the-kill-all-in-recents
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] Gandicela:
Sounds good to me, Mate. Thanks!
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] Badzoo:
All, for me it's not all rose:

-I was missing KA but as I read it won't come back, I am ok, if it works correctly without it, I am fine.

-battery life is still plagued by mdm_hsic_pm0 wake lock, I don't know what I can do, I might revert all the way back to a stock rom, anything I tried did not work. I empty a battery in less than 12h. If there is a way to detect that this process is constantly keeping the phone from sleeping and then reseting it, it would be really great. Up until then, I need to constantly check if it's locking my phone up or not and manually rebooting it if it does.

-connection to data shows that it's connected but the it actually isn't, that bugged me today, from 3PM to 6PM I thought that I had the data turned on but nothing was going on through the connection, so lost incoming messages and email. I needed to cycle airplane mode and then I was online again.

-it feels a bit slower than 4.3, but in the same time, it feels more stable, feels even more refine. That's really good.

I give it a bit more time but I am in the verge to pull the trigger and go back to a stock rom because of the battery drainage issue.

I do appreciate the good work and please continue to refine it.
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] prbassplayer:
That wakelock is modem related so I'd imagine that is relayed to your data loss. I'd bet you didn't have the wakelock on when it happened? Have you tried a different baseband?
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] pemell:
I had this wakelock and I've solved it. For me it happend due to bad signal on mobile network (4G). Always had zero, one or maximum two bars.

Since then I've used toggle2g and as soon as I'm on Wifi the mobile network changes to a strong 2g network. You can also configure it to use 2g when screen is off. I don't use the app itself but the plugins it offers. I use llama to take advantage of the these.

I've also updated the baseband but the above solution worked for me.
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] Cerv3r:
Does this have halo
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] Gandicela:
nope.
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] Badzoo:
Thanks to both of you, I am trying an older 4.1.2 modem and located for my area to see there is any improvements. We'll post feedback in a few days.

Is there any right tool for underclocking/undervolting?
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] pemell:
My recommendation for you would be to try and use the very latest modem, not an older one.

But the priority for you should be to configure your phone to use 2G whenever you don't need 4G or 3G.
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] Gandicela:
On SlimRom, I've never used custom kernel. I've never done under/over clocking or any undervolting. So I don't know what tool to use.
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] Badzoo:
My assumption is that I did not had that issue with stock rom and only since I am on 4.3 so I start with something older and track back.

Thanks for the feedback on uc/uv I'll look around if I can see a kernel that work.

Is the radio controls a part of the kernel? Or the pda part? Modem part ? Can part ?
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] pemell:
I didn't give any feedback on UC/UV?

Radio is part of the modem. I've posted the latest in the N7105 modem thread.

You don't need to revert back to some old rom. Just make it run on 2G when you don't need 3G/4G and the wakelock will be gone during the time you spend on a stron 2G network. Good luck. :)
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] Gandicela:
After 4 days into the ROM, I restored back to 2.8 because for some weird and wonderful reasons the phone did reboot into a fresh install of build 3. While I was still at work, and had no other options but to simply restore. Weird, really.
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] Badzoo:
I tried the 2G mode before and it did not help.

Right now, after nearly a day of work, the wakelock only stayed for 90min, so I am ok for now... will continue to test.

:)
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] Gandicela:
Just a minor thing on the screen lock animation, both vertical and horizontal collapse animation doesn't stick, especially after u create a shortcut to it. What I mean us that pressing the power button works, but say I want to remap my long press of Back button to screen off, the animation is broken and is back to just a fading screen, even with pressing the power button.

It's been there since b4 the stable build 3, and still now with 3.2 Nightly.
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] prbassplayer:
New weekly
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] eroperop:
Great ROM, but coming from Slimsaber for N7000, I miss several features. Is it possible to disable the LEDs of the softbuttons? I use my note a lot in low light.
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] snwahs:
Yes,

Settings > Advanced options > Device > Screen > Backlight. Untick to disable.

Installing 3.8 weekly destroys my IMEI. Could reproduce it. Thank god for TWRP and its EFS backup.

[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] yaoyn:
does the rom have bugs for this stable version???tthank you
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] Gandicela:
It's not stable build yet; still weekly. Nearly perfect.
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] fatboyinlycra:
No it's not, it's Damn Near Perfect.

I've moved to this from CM11 for a couple of reasons - The camera was awful, the icons were too large, and in call volume was absolutely atrocious

All 3 of those issues disappeared plus performance is 20% better without any individual enhancements:
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] yaoyn:
But I have found a official stable version which was built on 16th Feb. Is it the stable rom?
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] fatboyinlycra:
I am on build 3.6.weekly-3226, released March 10th.

There's a newer weekly out there released on the 17th but at the moment I don't see a need to flash it as not managed to find anything that would make me want to change so far...
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] Gandicela:
That was on 16-Feb is indeed a stable ROM build released. The current latest, which is what I presently am running on, is a weekly version 3.8. IMHO, slim releases are all stable.
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] yaoyn:
so you never find any bugs on the weekly 3.8?
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] Pandur2000:
Which recovery did you use? Version?

Thanks,

Pandur
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] Gandicela:
Screen off animation doesn't work

for me, a minor thing. I like it when display collapses vertically but it does not.

CWM; I never tried others since.
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] yaoyn:
IC, Thanks!
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] Pandur2000:
Installing with TWRP 2.7.0.0 worked fine without EFS/IMEI pproblems. Thanks for the advice, guys!
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] fatboyinlycra:
Am on the weekly 3.8 build but noticed this weekend that my status bar wasn't showing 4g when I was in a 4g area. Am on EE and know they had some problems on their network during the last week but can anyone confirm if 4g is working on this ROM? Mobile networks is set to 3g (no 4g option?) And advanced settings has radio set to enable hsdpa + hsupa but nowhere can I find a setting to select 4g.
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] Gandicela:
I am now on the 3.10 weekly, and I have only 3G or 2G preferred network type for selections. However my status bar indicates LTE; it has always been this way.
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] fatboyinlycra:
Thanks I've flashed to this version to now. Very nice.

Strange thing, gesture typing doesn't leave a trail and the pop up keyboard options such as punctuation and word options doesn't pop up when typing in chrome. Does in SMS and in the xda app. Not really a biggie for me just wondered of anyone else had noticed
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] Gandicela:
Not sure, Mate. I only use Swype and I have no issues.

Bug report:

Disturbing "knocking" clicking noises during calls when Touchwake is active, not occurring if BT / Speaker is turned on.

Reproduction;

1. Turn on Touchwake: Settings > Advanced Settings > Device > Display > Touchwake (10seconds)

2. Call someone via UMTS/3G/2G or take an incoming call

3. Notice clicking noises during the cal

4. During conversation / running call, look at the display. Screen should turn on as soon as you take the phone away from your ear. It doesn't. The notification of a running call is visible, but the dialer can not be opened. It opens, closes, opens randomly then.

The screen automatically turns off as soon as the phone is in "speaking" position to avoid unwanted actions (like hangup with your ear or something); I guess, Touchwake tries to activate the screen again and again and again while the dialer turns the screen off.

When is it NOT happening?

Turn on loudspeaker / BT device: Clicking gone (because the screen doesn't turn off in this mode, even if device is held on the ear)

Reproducible:

Turn off loudspeaker / BT device: Clicking back as soon as the screen turns off
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] d-fa:
Still no luck unfortunately, flashed Official build 4 this morning, took one photo with the camera which went fine then switched to video recorder and as soon as I press record the screen freezes. (this is what normally happens.

On build 3 I could use the CM camera fix to reboot the camera and I could then get the camera and video recorder to work, but on build 4 the video recorder doesnt work period, neither after running the cm fix app or after a full phone reboot I cannot get the video to work at all now.

it was worth a try.

Cheers
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] Gandicela:
I did switch back and forth between camera and video recording; I don't have same problem you've encountered, Mate. I am even testing this ROM now with Lenovo Super Camera and so far so good.

[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] Gandicela:
Slightly different problem.

1. I didn't hear any disturbing clicking sound.

2. I confirm when u look at the screen, it doesn't automatically turn on unless i touch the screen.

3. When I put the phone next to my ear, the screen switched off but it flickers on and off like every 2-3 seconds.

4. On 1 occasion I wasn't able to end the call at all. The phone got locked, call was still on.
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] prbassplayer:
Looks like TouchWake is derping. I'll take a look. Might end up removing, I was never a big fan of the idea personally.
