I read the wakelocks. Didn't find anything weird. Only thing is the WiFi info not being correct. Also no drain today. Should I post a screenshot from better battery stats?
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] tetakpatak:
I have figured out on my P5110 that battery drain with SlimKat build 6 was caused by WiFi setting "always on during sleep"

Since I've changed it to "only when plugged in" the battery life is normal again.

Guyz, I just discovered my s-pen is not working. Is it a kernel support issue or my pen could be broken?

hi fellas can someone tell me if this rom has the common aosp bug of the audio been recorded in mono when taking videos? thank you
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] prof123:
I really don't understand your question. Can Slim Team please help?
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] tetakpatak:
Regarding the fact that the device has only mono microphone I would say it is kind of expected that it can't record stereo sound.

The device has 2 mics, there's one at the bottom near the usb port and another one near the headphone socket!!

What happened to the feature rich slimrom . . . Still waiting for a theme engine . . . At least

---------- Post added at 01:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:55 PM ----------

I ''think'' google music is draining batt in the latest weekly
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] prbassplayer:
We aren't feature rich because we don't have theme engine? Seriously? We haven't implemented it because of how it works, and the lag it creates.

As for Google music well where you using it? Could be dl music as well.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] tetakpatak:
The general idea of Slimroms is to remain slim instead of fat. Check just the zip sizes of Slim roms vs other custom ROMs [MENTION=2294136]Ironwrung[/MENTION]

Although quite small, Slim has many great features so that Xposed frameworks aren't needed anymore for most of users.

tetakpatalked from Nexus 7 flo
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] Ironwrung:
Atleast now I know why I shouldn't expect the theme engine but seriously speaking from my point of view, slimrom(ics) and slimbean had more features than slimkat, I recall I could even modify status bar transparency or set custom dpi values without installing another app, when I talk of feature rich, I'm not comparing you to other other roms but your older roms
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] PrettyJAE.swag:
Why don't you just use other roms with theme engine like carbon rom.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] Yary12:
The Rom is super smooth, minimalistic and quite battery friendly. Now I am looking for a way to undervolt the cpu. Has anyone done it? how?
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] HypoDest:
I'm getting very noisy outgoing call quality, as well as noisy sound recordings on this rom. Its seems like rather than cancelling noise, the top mic is recording and amplifying the sound.<br />

Is anyone else experiencing this or know of any solutions?<br/>
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] beautifulsun:
Just installed the 4.4.4 (is this the right thread?). Great great great great ROM!

1) What's best kernel to associate?

2) Still getting "Unfortunately, Exchange Services has stopped" error message. Its safe to freeze it with Titanium Backup?
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] erpurohit:
Did you done clean flash or dirty flash.. I did clean flash and it is working perfectly fine.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] beautifulsun:
Clean flash with PhilZ Touch Recovery (using "Clean to install a New Rom" option).

[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] geekynoob:
Ok.. just read it and wanted to mention it.. theme engine for me has no lags.. no issues at all on other roms..

Rest it is slim teams personal choice but yes.. no engine is actually a deak breaker for me..

I want a row of nice toggles above the notifications. Not a huge page of ugly toggle and separate notifications.

[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] prof123:
Please, is it safe to remove Google+? It keeps FC on my phone.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] KiRAdot47:
yes, no problem

also if you don't use all this stuff you could flash the mini gapps (after the wipe)
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] evanovici:
1.Personally, don't find that useful, I hide a lot of notifications, especially those persistent. You don't have that option yet, have to do it manually, but when you receive a notification, long press - enable heads up

2. Unstable, also from personal experience. Flash kernel that supports it and you're good to go

Hi there, first of all I'm not used to do this kinda of things so there are some questions.

I've got a rooted 4.1.2 stock, what kernel should I download? What are the steps to follow? Wipe all, then flash kernel first and then the rom or first the rom and then the kernel?

Most important: anyone had audio issues? Call or recording? Didn't download the Omni/CM because I read there are such problems.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] tetakpatak:
Hm, bit off topic... basically, all KitKat ROMs have smaller or bigger issues with either Bluetooth or audio etc. Google had good idea to try to make codes for KK to save battery giving low priority to those services, but now our developers struggle on this since longer than half year.

SlimBean 4.3 is assumably better choice for you. Just flash any custom recovery before that, then you can flash zips in recovery. SlimBean works great with its stock kernel, no need for custom one IMO.

The S Pen doesn't respond at all, in any app. I tried installing CM S Pen just there and that hasn't had any effect either.

UPDATE:

I've just noticed that the pen works in the bottom right corner and only along the Y axis (up and down) about a third of the way up the screen and then becomes unresponsive again. Has anyone else had this issue? It worked perfectly on SlimBean yesterday before I updated.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] KiRAdot47:
no problem with the s-pen

weekly 6.6 stock kernel

only camera not working after 2 shots
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] gondsman:
This is really weird, as the s-pen is only an input device, it should work on every rom out there (it's not different from using a mouse). Can you double check that it works in other roms? It sounds more like a hardware issue to me.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] prbassplayer:
Last time you factory reset +system, cash and dalvik format? Logs? The camera wrapper seems pretty solid on t0lte and i9300. Also with what camera app does it happen?

Anybody can provide SU update zip to flash it. Just installed this rom but there is no SU app.

Thanks in advance.

[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] tetakpatak:
The camera app is just a bit sensitive (crashy) by rotating the phone position from horizontal to vertical or vice-versa.

Try not to shoot or to do other actions during the rotation, otherwise it should work fine.

Did anyone wants the TW style theme for slimrom. I have created such a theme for Galaxy S a long back if And working on the same concept again for n7100 and you want i will share with everyone in seprate thread.

If will be based on vrtheme and you need to flag it through recovery and to revert back you will have two options either flag the backup created during the flashing of theme our flag the rom again.

Slimrom developer please let me know if you see any issue in it.

Thanks.

Hello, I wiped (cache, dalvik, system, data) installed weekly 6.6, same stuff goes with the camera, you have to be extra careful with it, or else it will crash.(when I had the old system, i had AOSP (stock) camera and Google camera - same stuff)

On a side note, the weekly 6.0 was far more stable in terms of camera...

Sorry i cannot provide logs right now.

Noob question: I'm on 6.2 to upgrade to 6.6 what I need to do, what wipe and in which order?

thx
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] evanovici:
I would definetly recommend back up, then clean flash (factory reset: wipe /system, /data, cache+ dalvik)

For dirty, you could be fine with dalvik + cache, extra helpful also a manual system format, but that breaks any system app custom setting (xposed, custom dpi in build prop, manually converted apps to system etc.) :)

Oh, and re-flash gapps
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] beautifulsun:
app + system backup with TiBu is enough or I'll need to reconfigure system apps, gallery, greenify, copied, kernel etc?
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] evanovici:
TiBu keeps your settings, you'll have to reinstall xposed framework, greenify will be OK. Backup apps+data, to confirm, not just apps

Just got flowed
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] prbassplayer:
Restoring system is usually a bad idea.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] tetakpatak:
Abso-lutely!

[MENTION=5618018]beautifulsun[/MENTION] there is also a way between "clean" and "dirty" that is in most of cases working fine:

Wipe: system, cache, dalvik cache

Install: new nightly, gapps

This will not wipe your apps, accounts and settings

Weekly is rolling out
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] Rickav:
Heyo, somewhat of a newb here. My brief bio (ignore as and when required): been using stock-ish roms for the best of the last 2 years on me Note II. Through Jellybean, awkward-inter-Jellybean/pre-KitKat-phase and KitKat. Sadly, many of the popular roms are bursting at the seams with the "latest features" from Note 3 and S5 which, at least for me, are wholly unnecessary for the most part. Recently decided to take the plunge with AOSP roms. First rom I decided to try was SlimKat 4.4.2 Build 5. 137MB. I've downloaded biggers OTAs. Heck, I've downloaded bigger 2D games. Wiped all, flashed successfully (including Slim Mini Gapps) and booted up within seconds. Speed like no amount of customization on any TouchWiz kernel on stock-ish rom ever gave me. Lag became a fictitious concept. So many new options to play with. Gave it a mental rating of 8/10. SlimRecents would take a little while to get used to; absence of kill all button and no ram usage bar is bit disappointing. I'm aware of the pinch to kill gesture but, in my opinion, one of the few things Sammy did right and well is the recents feature.

Now for the newb questions. I was going through the SlimRoms website and I came across 4.4.4 Build 6.8, as you confirmed here. I checked with the SlimRoms features and I seem to have everything advertised on Build 5. So what is the 4.4.4 "upgrade" about? What are the reasons to make the jump from Build 5? Different features/options/optimisations? Is every single feature available on Build 5 carried over on to the latest one?

As an aside, I also flashed the 4.4.4 CM 11 rom beforehand because that is the "go-to" custom rom for... Customising. Turns out, SlimKat has more (doesn't have add date to status bar clock feature among other minor details like SlimPIE). It does have the handy normal recents. But it also has some microphone issues (lower one which is used in most applications underperforms significantly while the upper one which provides noise cancellation/stereo works fine). Others confirmed the same issue is true for Omni so didn't even try that one (not really a huge fan of nightlies either). Which is why I wonder why 4.4.4 Slim is "better" than its 4.4.2 predecessor, or if that is the case at all.

Cheers... And sorry for the long read. Bit excited to get away from Sammy's reach.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] beautifulsun:
Anyone are experiencing a little background static noise while earphones are plugged in and listen to music, watch videos etc?
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] tetakpatak:
[MENTION=5125844]Rickav[/MENTION] while you won't be able to notice any difference in the performance, some important updates are merged in basically each Android version change. 4.4.2 is for example the last version that still has an important security vulnerability: read about Master Key security hole.

Many of the features you're missing can be enabled in ROM itself, or with installing some of the frameworks mods through Xposed installer. There are hunderds of mods so far, they get released faster than mushrooms can growe after the late summer rain.

BTW, welcome here!

Where is wipe system in CWM/Philz Touch? [emoji46] You mean wipe to data factory reset?
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] tetakpatak:
Wipe (format) system is under mounts and storage.

Yes, wipe data before major rom changes.

For update to the newer nightly of the same rom it is usually enough to wipe system, cache and dalvik and to flash new rom and gapps. Your installed apps from the store, data, settings and accounts will remain all fine then.

Obviously, this doesn't occur very often. And it is simple enough to just switch on the phone to find its charge. So... I guess, for the sake of keeping to the name, lack of animation will suffice.
