Google play services etc causes lots of wakelocks. I'm not sure if this is related to your battery suckage, but check out http://xdaforums.com/xposed/modules/mod-nlpunbounce-reduce-nlp-wakelocks-t2853874. Great xposed module for controlling wakelocks!

Also this works great in combo with Better Battery Stats!

I'm getting occasional screen freezes and sometimes to the point where I have to take my battery out where the screen will turn on or off, but touch screen does nothing. Any suggestions or things to change to fix it?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] manatti:
I had the same issue and discovered it was due to setting in xposed module. I haven't had it in over a week now.

I have tried changing every setting and I still get the blacked out menu backgrounds in some apps. Any other thoughts on how to fix this?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] RayMcGrath:
In Alliance manager, install a different preset theme. See if that does it.

If not; clear cache and dalvik then dirty flash the rom.

Good luck.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] manatti:
Yes I'm sorry in greenify I changed to boost mode but unchecked the coalesce setting after that it stopped

Attached (I hope) is a picture of the blacked out menus I have in the backgrounds of many apps.

I have done what was suggested in the last few posts, and I recently dirty flashed the ROM with cashe and dalvic wipe. No change.

Any thoughts on what I can adjust to correct this?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] rogerwalker22:
Is there going to be an Alliance Rom for the Note 4? =] =p ;)

Here is a new one I found today, but it is the opposite. Everything is light colored so I cannot see the text.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Goldie:
Do you have custom dialog enabled?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] keving75:
I am looking for this now. Can you tell me what it is under??

Sorry to ask that but there are so many options w/ the ROM it get s a little confusing.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] the_rooter:
I think custom roms may be up in the air since the creator of ss is no longer around. He stopped all support as of Sept. 1
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] droidstyle:
Doubt it...unless you get a developer edition(if samsung even offers one). As previously mentioned, the dev for safe strap dropped all support and did not respond to other devs that offered to maintain it. I also foresee most development going by the way side for Verizon devices unless another Nexus ever comes about.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] the_rooter:
if this is the case for the note 4 and no developement this doesnt mean no developement for other verizon phones. htc,lg, and motorola are still in the running. They will always have developement. From the law suit being put in i think either today or tomorrow that a group is suing samsung and trying to stop all sales of note 3, s5, note 4, and a few others. It's starting to not look good for samsung.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] BigMcGuire:
Wow... this pretty much ends me buying any device that isn't a Nexus (if the rumors are true that Verizon will actually offer the Nexus 6) if I stay on Verizon. The only way I'd get a Note 4 on Verizon is if I knew I could root it and remove the <Blank>loads of adware. Sucks that the SS dev wouldn't let anyone else take it over. Verizon is doing everything it can to make sure I seriously consider another carrier next year when my contract is up.

I'll make a note to enjoy the Note 3 while I have it - and enjoy flashing Alliance Rom while I can, lol. Hats off to you Alliance Rom folks - I guess we're a dying breed on Verizon. Won't be long for the other carriers to follow I imagine.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] almahix:
I must have missed the law suit story. What is happening with samsung?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] the_rooter:
Something I believe to do with patents. Lemme find the link.

Patent lawsuits are silly. (Another apple litigation rather than innovation?) In its context I mistakenly inferred the suit had to do with bootloaders or safestrap. Patents. Phooey.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Mibuix0r:
I am still having problems with the torch in AllianceRom build 1. It force closes all the time and sometimes just wont shut off from the toggles. I have tried clearing appdata and cache. I also don't have any volume control hot keys or Wanam installed.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Goldie:
Any xposed? Have you tried removing it if you have?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Mibuix0r:
I have a few nothing that should effect the camera though (app settings, GPSNotification, KeepChat, OK Google for 3rd party activities, RootCloak, and YouTube AdAway). :(

EDIT: Disabled all and restarted, no change. Torch still crashes. Other torch apps work fine but I can't incorporate them in to the toggles bar.

I'm not sure if something changed, or if I just started noticing it. I've been on several sites lately (forums mainly) that have highlighted words in the text all throughout the page. Any time I scroll the screen when one of these words is on the screen, an ad pops up. Is this just the way these sites are, or did I pick up a virus? It acts just like a PC when it gets one of these malware things that reroutes your homepage and searches and stuff. But I've never dealt with such on a phone. Any suggestions?

Edit: I've tried a couple of times to attach a screenshot. I'm not sure why but the xda app won't let me...

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] DutchDogg54:
A quick search for your problem would have revealed you need to flash the NC2 kernel in Odin to run this ROM. Do that and you'll be good to go. :good:
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] droidstyle:
Why do you need to take pictures while talking on the phone? I am trying to think of one instance where this feature would even deem its self useful.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] mad3963:
I use it all the time at work. I'm a service technician. Quite often I'll be talking to another tech or my boss about an issue we're working on and we'll take and share photos of what's being worked on to help the other understand/see better what's being worked on. I could list a number of similar scenarios.

I was wondering the same thing when you asked about the camera but I didn't want to seem rude by asking. But as a service man of sorts myself, now that makes perfect sense! Brilliant use of a SMART phone

Typed with both hands from my Allianced N3 phablet using the XDA Free app
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] droidstyle:
Makes perfect sense! Now come to think of it I did the same thing a couple months back when I was installing a monitor in a arcade style video game. I had to contact the repair tech that forgot to send me the power adapter with the chassis board. He had me take and send pictures of the board to confirm what was missing. So yes I can see it being a important feature. I just forgot about it since I very seldom use it. :)
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] buckeyestilidie:
Is there anyway to lower the HW module test? It says it's taking up 15% of my battery and I don't know how.

isn't that what hangouts with video is for?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] badboyg200:
There have been many times I would be talking to someone on the phone and I would want to take a picture of something. Pretty simple actually. There are a ton of features on this phone that are not "deemed useful" in your daily routine but that doesn't seem to be an issue for you. Simply put, there is no reason why it should even blocked in the first place.

Thank you to the user who assisted me. Works great now.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] scott_65:
I hadn't imagined that anyone took the time to block such a thing, I wouldn't know a reason to. Actually I had just never thought about it, I wasn't aware of any feature of the phone that didn't work while any other feature was being used. Other than camera while the torch was on, conflict of interest. I was just intrigued that such a glitch was found and impressed with the reasoning behind it. I can think back now on times when I've wanted to take a picture of something and just waited until I was off the phone. Lesson learned: put it on speaker, continue the conversation and take the picture. Cool

Am i missing something or am I an Idiot?

So I was on Alliance and it was working great I was on nc2 and I wanted to try the Jasmin S5 rom (I don't know why I was bored and it was late. Not a good combo). So I ODIN the nc4 base to my phone and rooted and safe strapped and everything but now i cant install a custom rom every rom softbricks and wont even get to the boot animation. Am I missing a file? or am I just an idiot a put the NC4 when I should have stayed with NC2? I've done a little searching and I'm getting confusing results. So I'm asking here since I want to go back to Alliance. Any help?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] chefrd38:
If I'm not mistaken you should've stayed on nc2
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Dragracekid:
ok well hopefully I can ODIN back to NC2 ill download that now thank you
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] the_rooter:
There's absolutely nothing wrong with nc4. From the post in this thread further back it will be compatible with nc4.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Dragracekid:
I wonder if im doing something wrong then? I'm no noob to flashing but I cant seem to figure this one out
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] the_rooter:
Did u flash the nc4 before or after u flashed the rom?

People may say it doesn't make a difference when you do but when I tried flashing it before I got the issue you have. And also I think I know what u did wrong with jasmine. You need to flash 2.3.2 first and then the other versions are dirty flashed over 2.3.3 and then 2.3.4 the other versions are just updates not full roms. What download did u flash for jasmine

Pm me
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Dragracekid:

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] buckeyestilidie:
So my battery has been dying pretty quick. I can normally get about 4 or 5 days out of my zerolemon. All of sudden I'm getting about 2 days. I believe this is a rom issue as nothing has changed about the phone or battery. I downloaded a specific battery stats app and it helped me realize the security storage is draining about 20% of my battery. Can anyone diagnose a problem?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] bajasur:
Battery life issues are so difficult to diagnose. There are so many different things that could be causing it, it is never easy to say.

My best advice would be to reflash the rom (clean flash) and then download only essential applications. See if this fixes your issue. There could be something wake locking your device constantly or an app sleeping in the background too.

Good luck and I am sorry to hear your battery life isn't good!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] bajasur:
Yes is the short answer.

Which variant and when? Well it depends.

I'm sure many of you saw how difficult it was to achieve root on the Galaxy S5, it took months until [MENTION=3280118]geohot[/MENTION] was able to create towel root.

All we can do is hope that someone is ale to tackle the carrier branded versions, in particular Verizon for all of you!

Then we have the bootloader issue... [MENTION=4939386]Surge1223[/MENTION] is hard at work on continuing Safe Strap development but Android 5.0 may bring several issues along with it.

Currently, in android 4.4.4, Samsung decided to change all .png images to .qmg format which has created quite a PITA.

This could bring issues to the Note 3 as well until a qmg converter program is created (which I am sure will happen).

So to answer your question, yes, we will have Alliance on the Note 4. Most likely for T mobile and International variants.

Hopefully we will get root and a bootloader work around like SS for the Verizon folks.

:D
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] rogerwalker22:
I'll hold out a while then after it comes out. See what happens. Maybe lol it is an awesome piece of technology
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] matsuyamakaze:
Curious how many people get great battery life with alliance rom? So far I'm getting 7 hours on screen time. With very heavy use.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] fz798:
Speaking of dropped............

Can't help but notice the devs for HyperDrive, Alliance, and Jasmine all alluded to "imminent" releases weeks ago, yet all three still have not dropped... Is there something about the 4.4.4 code base that's causing hiccups, is it something about the redheaded stepchild device, or something else? Is it merely coincidence, or something more confounding?

What's to me personally more irritating isn't any delays with any one ROM, it's the <crickets> ... If there's really some head-banging show stopper, then by all means, just tell us so, but the lack of depth to the reasons for the delays is *weird* to say the least. Again, it's not any one ROM, but the three I've personally been following, have all been delayed,, and again yes, delays are fine, and to an extent in the software world, to be expected, but what's neither expected nor comforting, is the eeire lack of detail to the delay in all three.

Sorry for the whining, I'm still picking out cheese.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] the_rooter:
Coding takes time. Right now a couple out of the ones you mentioned at coding so the roms will work on nc4 kernel and all. So it's not odd when everyone who codes does it on their spare time. Time which is scarce for some coders because they have lives. It's just called patience and waiting and last time I read alliance and hyperdrive said no such thing of 4.4.4 only jasmine. Unless I missed something. Patience is key.

You guys we are sorry. You're right, we did say that it would be out in a week and that was like 3 weeks ago. I can guarantee you we want to get it out asap and have been working around the clock, staying up to and waking up at ridiculous hours to get it done. I'm in Australia and wake up at 4:30am to get stuff done and tested. We are going as quick as we can and it will be very soon. These things take time unfortunately but the wait will be long forgotten when the ROM is on your phone, I promise.

I have no issue with your post, I actually appreciate the way it was worded and I agree and apologize. We did say it would be out and it's been a while since we said that, which is not right.

We are literally working on Build 2 as I write this message, and we have been for weeks. I know it looks like development is dying on this device but I can assure you alliance will continue as long as Samsung and Verizon will allow it to.

Cheers to everyone for your patience as we work to deliver this build.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Surge1223:
Yeah poor Davey has to wake up at odd hours to communicate with us, then he works on note 3 domination and he doesnt even own a note 3! You guys have no idea how much work this guy puts in.

About delays etc, from my perspective this is what the issue is:

NC4 came out awhile ago, so the next OTA shouldn't be too far away right?

You see, no one wants to release an update then have an ota drop the next day. Ita a very frustrating experience lol. Then theres the issue of gimmick updates (made rom "faster" added init.d scriptz for optimization durrrrrrr) vs real updates (added hardware key remapping, added working upsm, added hardware volume key controls) you see what I mean? Real mods take time and real updates use real mods. But this aside, yes we are very sorry for the delays, but i guarantee you they will be worth it.:sly::D:thumbup:

Well Samsung likes to bend over for Verizon which in turn screws us users over. Verizon is the most evil company there is, its not by coincidence they have the nickname "Big Red" I mean the book "1984" lays it out perfectly.

What Baja means is that as long as we still have a way to get around the restrictions and bl9cks Verizon imposes, (and Samsung willingly applies as their mast Verizons request) then we will still make a rom

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] almahix:
Nobody comes close to Verizon's coverage here, but tmo seems so much less trouble. I am on WiFi 99.9% of the time anyway. I also have an old grandfathered plan with more voice and data than I can use for a lower price than tmo can come near. Additionally, I get a significant company discount on VZ and tmo doesn't offer them anymore. Thus my quandary.
