I've found that Facebook stays running in the background after you close the app. I have the Active Application widget on one of my screens. After closing Facebook I click on the widget and close Facebook. Google Play dose the same thing for me. I've use GSam Battery Stats. Facebook doesn't seem to be causing battery drainage for me, since I close it down.

Just wondering how you got a background image on the dialer. I really like that feature. Is it a custom dialer?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] LillieBennett:
I get this on stock ROM and others, think its a note 3 peculiarly. Using a heavy finger helps. Have you tried going into display settings and toggle (turn on then off) the screen sensitivity? To bad samsung didn't make it a slider.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] tmoore3496:
How are you getting wallpaper to change with theme
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] RayMcGrath:
Those are built in to the themes. You can change the system background under backgrounds. Then slide the transparency slider to your desired setting. This is how the dialer can have a background of your choice.

Enjoy! Have fun
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] RomsWell:
First time ive ever experienced it. I have a stockish setup backed up. I tried it on stock but cant replicate it. Ive messed with all the transition options and scroll bounce but no luck there.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] LillieBennett:
It's hard to replicate for me too. It seems to only happen when I am absently scrolling, never when I'm thinking about it. Sorry ?

I don't have voice mail notifications. I also didn't have them on build 1. Which was kind of a shock when I found out I had 20 of them...

I've searched the thread and it doesn't appear to have happened to others. It looks like all my settings are correct. Could it have something to do with vvm? I just decline and freeze it.

Thanks for any help!

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Shaggy Kobain:
Again, Thanks to [MENTION=3942879]Ray McGrath[/MENTION] for the steps, I take no credit for them-

Alliance custom settings - colors - backgrounds - system - set what background you want - use transparency slider to adjust to your preference.

*You may have to restart your system UI for it to take effect*
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] kdizzleh85:
yup

Hotspot works for me perfectly
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] GameChanger:
I have done all the steps above but still don't have a dialer bg. I don't understand what I am doing wrong. I see the custom image I set in all the settings screen of system apps ie: gmail, text message, system settings. I have attached pictures to show.

Any help is appreciated!

EDIT - I started over and dl'd a back up of original settings and have been able to get the contacts to have custom image but still not the dialer. I was able to change the color of bg though. I am stumped. [emoji35]

Wanting to upgrade to this ROM from stock retail Note 3 on Verizon running 4.4.2 NC4. Assuming I have ran, towelroot, superSU, busybox, and safestrap, is there anything else I need to do before installing this ROM? It says it is NC4 compatible, but do I still need to flash NC2 or NC4 before flashing this ROM? Some of these directions are so convoluted, it's hard to make sure I'm making all the right steps in the right order. Thanks in advance!

More data points about scrolling issues. Having them occur in both Gmail and Google drive. Specifically in Gmail if you go to the menu and scroll all the way down it gets stuck at bottom and similar issue with drive.

I have no access to settings anymore. As of my reboot this morning I can no longer access the settings menu, just the normal Android one. I swipe my notifications tray down and click the gear and the tray just swipes back up and Im back at the home screen. If I go to my tray I don't have settings in there either....what the...?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] marblesmike:
Same here. I'm using a gradient effect for my custom background however it won't work in Gmail's main screen (it works in Gmail's menus though) or in the dialer. It seems in the menu you have to whitelist apps you want to use the custom bg, and phone/dialer is not one of the ones in the list.

Can anyone help please?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] tahoe916:
So I don't have any settings, and I just noticed on reboot that Safestrap is disabled....trying to figure out how to get that enabled again. Ugh. Any help would be super appreciated!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Goldie:
Certain apps simply won't change as some have their own bg forced that overrides the mod

So I understand why it says safe strap disabled now, deerrrp. But still no idea why I dont have access to any of my settings.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] scott_65:
Not sure what Google drive is, don't see it in my app drawer. I hope that doesn't make me look like a complete idiot to everyone now, lol. But I confirm Gmail settings are the same for me. I think it has to be related to overscroll. I noticed in the app drawer if I flick to the end of the list hard, the glitch occurs. But if I scroll gently to the edge, no apps are inadvertently launched and I'm allowed to scroll back up or down as usual.

Btw, I have not changed any custom settings yet in alliance. The only difference is nova launcher but I know the glitch occurred before it's install. Therefore, completely virgin install, no mods, no themes including dominance, no titanium backups, nothing... I'm certainly no dev, but I'm super busy so I'm always slow to customize my phone. If anybody has any idea or question to try out on a clean install, I don't mind wiping and running whatever tests. All I need is my contacts loaded via Google. I'm fine leaving everything else alone to tinker if it helps someone smarter than me iron this thing out

I got all the back grounds working properly. After hours of frustration and headaches I started over from a nadroid I made after a fresh install of build 2. Now I am all giddy trying to put the finishing touches on this theme, then on to the next one.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] yearn2burn:
Perfect description. Reproducible for me on Gmail menu. With hard flick to bottom, menu gets stuck. Backing out of app and reentering Gmail it's fine again. Gently hitting the bottom of the menu is fine. Guess I'm normally not a heavy flicker[emoji106] Question is whether it's a ROM issue or Google issue or Android issue. Any other phones you've tested?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] GameChanger:
I feel your pain. I was there earlier today.

Look at post # 12717. Follow those instructions. It originally didnt work for me so I started from scratch and it worked.

Edit - I forgot to mention what Ray Mcgrath said about restarting ui and then reboot your phone. after reboot I had to wait like 5 mins before it showed in dialer.

I did not get that to reproduce in Gmail settings. Running brand new Gmail app . I did reproduce it in Drive. Not even in the settings menu. Just the regular screen that shows all your contents. I don't have that much stuff in drive so when I scroll all the way to the bottom, I can not scroll back up. Backing out of the app and re-entering it puts me back at the top and I am able to proceed.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] thefiverivers:
Yeah same thing for me in drive. In gmail try it in the hamburger menu and not settings and see if you can reproduce the issue.

I haven't tested it on any other phones. I had beans rom build 6 mje prior to flashing alliance build 2 and I didn't have any scrolling issues.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] scott_65:
I don't believe it's phone or Google related. I've run several roms on this phone, including alliance build one without this problem. And I'm having the glitch within apps that aren't related at all with Google (Out Of Milk, for one). Not sure how it would be android related, assuming build 2 was built off of the same base as build one. Seems it should be something rom related...

The only native touch screen setting I'm aware of is the one for auto sensitivity, which hasn't had any effect on the problem. The symptoms point towards a problem with overscroll I believe

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] F350-6:
Toggling sensitivity or using a heavy finger doesn't help me at all.

Not hard to replicate for me. The things that freeze mine happen 100% of the time I perform that certain action. Repeatable at will.

I just checked the Gmail app and couldn't find any issues. I checked drive too and found I could freeze that app by scrolling down to the bottom of the main screen.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] BIGSIKE3:
Is it my understanding that once on Build 2 on NC2 you would not want to flash NC4? I see in the initial instructions it says to make sure you flash NC4 BEFORE flashing the rom. But does this mean you're almost "stuck" for lack of a better word on NC2 if you've already flashed Build 2? ....Hope that wasn't too confusing lol
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] RayMcGrath:
How does this help folks here???
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] warriorpluto:

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] scott_65:
I missed this the first time through, just saw it when rereading some posts. I've never experienced it on any other roms. It doesn't matter how hard or soft I press, and the sensitivity toggle doesn't affect the problem. And as others stated, I can duplicate it in certain apps all day long. I don't believe it to be a screen issue, or note 3 related, but rather rom software somehow

keyboard lag

I notice when I click on a text box in any app (email, search bar, messages) I get a lag from the keyboard popping up where I have to hit the back button that seems to reset the app and then hit the text bar again this opens the keyboard.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] heavyMGS:
I seem to be getting this message when I flash a theme. The message will come up for a few seconds then go away then come back, I then have to reboot the phone. Part of the theme takes but not all of it.

Clean flash of course.

Loving this ROM so far by way, thanks for the great work Devs! The customization menu is much more intuitive in this release.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] RayMcGrath:
I think that most of these issue arise from not completely wiping before flashing the rom. Internal storage as well. Especially coming from a different rom.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] matsuyamakaze:
I don't have themes they don't appear do I have to wait a while? I waited a couple minutes but no alliance ui themes? Thanks for telling me where they are lol. I'm talking about the alliance manager 23 custom ui ones. Thanks again.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] CIPuyleart:
My humblest apologies.

Someone asked if the scrolling issue was something possibly ROM specific, GApps specific, or maybe even phone specific. Just trying to offer some input that might help eliminate possibilities - that on my phone, that is not running this ROM as of yet, the issue does not exist. If that information helps someone trouble shoot things, great. If it doesn't, no skin off my back. I just know in my line of engineering more data, from more sources, is usually a good thing.

And thanks for reminding me why I typically just lurk in the shadows around here, responding with a thanks where I can and otherwise keeping quiet. As much as I appreciate the hard work people put in to making these ROMs and helping others use them, I'm by no means an expert in anything programming related and as such obviously have nothing worthwhile to contribute to the discussion.

I have the exact same issue. Thought it was the hardware at first, but tested another ROM and the issue goes away. No idea how to fix it.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] heavyMGS:
Thanks. I actually did that once when I first flashed part deux as all the new themes weren't showing up. Deleting the folder did resolve that.

I'll try deleting the folder again and see what I get. Thanks for the suggestion though, I'll give it a go.

---------- Post added at 12:12 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:04 AM ----------

Folder delete didn't work. Hmm..... Well, I will think about doing a complete wipe including internal storage maybe this weekend when I have a bit more time.

Until then, ROM running great and a few theming quirks for me ain't no biggie.

Any other ideas? I'll give them a shot.

Really digging this release, thanks again for all hard work put in to it Devs, you guys rock!

I have a quick question. I am already running rooted NC4 with Baja Build 1 do I still need to use the towelroot method to load Build 2 or can I just wipe my stock drive and flash over?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] scott_65:
The buttons at the bottom are called the dock. Are you using the native launcher? I've used nova for so long I don't remember but I thought it was the same, click and hold to drag one out. Then drag another back in. In the launcher settings should be options for how many apps can be displayed here, so if your maxed out you'll have to remove one to add another.

As for one handed, mine is working perfect. Are you using one handed keyboard/keypad, or the entire screen? There are options for both. And what keyboard are you using? If something exotic and unknown, possibly just incompatibility with the keyboard app?

I've tried every combo I can think of in the animations section, focusing particularly on the overscroll part. No change. Not that it helps but I've found a bit of a pattern within the app drawer when setup vertical. Flick "hard" either all the way up or down, even from just a row or 2 from top or bottom. You can then let go of the screen entirely. Next time you touch the screen, it will launch the app at the far left end of the row that you touched. Same for everyone else?

On a side note, after tinkering with all of this, my phone does some pretty slick stuff. My keyboard fades in and out, apps slide in and out from different angles, home screens, etc. Lol

Sorry I couldn't help then. Something must be different. I'm using nova launcher and I deleted the app icon first thing, using that procedure. And one handed is working perfect here too, using native keyboard. Worked on build one with several keyboards.

I assumed stock slot, full wipe, clean install? What sort of backups? Possibly any sort of keyboard dictionaries or something to goof with settings?

Hey all. Was on Beans 6, went to Alliance build 1, and now on to build 2. Did all the recommended steps, including a full wipe before flashing. I installed the ASOP theme "Alliance Domination", and while I love the look, it seems to be dominating my battery life. Or at least I believe that's what is going on in the pics below. Anyone else having battery issues?

I was having battery life issues before upgrading to Build 2. Barely making it through a day of use, even with only a couple hours of screen on time. But literally the day I upgraded to Build 2, I got a new battery. Not seeing any change, other than the new systemui item drawing battery.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] davidwilson83:
To change the icons in the dock of the stock launcher, you need to click the menu button and then choose 'Edit' and then you will be able to change the icons in the dock.

What is the issue that people are having with scrolling? And with one handed mode?

Hi mate, I can guarantee you that my theme is not 'dominating' your battery life. Are you on the stock slot in Safe Strap? If SystemUI is what is eating your battery then it must be something like an ongoing notification giving you grief. All the beta testers have flashed my theme on Build 2 and they have amazing battery life.
