[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] kaibosh99:
I am in the process of doing a full wipe and install of the newest build to hopefully fix up some glitches. I had a perfectly clean system (dirty flashed over SlimBean, but that didn't seem to hurt) but I had a couple of serious bugs:

- Camera is glitchy, especially when trying to take video. Picture onscreen is horribly askew for aspect ratio even though finished product is okay. Also, several apps that 'use' the camera simply freeze up (could be KitKat issues, but worked with SlimBean).

- There is simply zero wi-fi direct, which is odd because it worked perfectly in SlimBean. I can't see other phones, they can't see me. Bluetooth connections, normal wi-fi, etc, all work fine. No idea why this would break.

Report:

Backup all user apps to ext sd with TB.

Backup Nova Launcher settings to ext sd.

Copy temasek, gapps, dk2.3.2 to ext sd.

Reboot into recovery, factory flash.

Install rom, gapps, and DK in a row, then wipe dal/cache and reboot.

Go through setup, strangely enough it remembered by wifi password. Hrm.

Desperately try to stop Play Store from taking over phone. Hitting 'stop' repeatedly does not help.

Install TB/key, it does the usual whining about device ID and all that. Clunky software, I hates it.

Keep trying to stop Play Store, this is ridiculous. I guess a person has to skip Google sign-in to avoid this.

Get TB running a 'restore all missing apps', which miraculously stops the Play Store. Huh.

Jump into Nova Launcher, which 'kinda' does a restore but you have to build your widgets manually and other irritating stuff.

Load up Play Store wearing crude lipstick and let it have its way with my phone and dignity.

Poke at various rooty apps, allow SU all over the place, re-engage the xposed stuff, and then reboot just because I can.

FolderMount successfully mounts existing stuff, whew.

Apps that access camera work fine now.

Changing any camera app to 'video' still causes nasty squished aspect ratio issues. This is not good.

Test wi-fi direct, which remains 100% broken. Multiple devices cannot see my phone, my phone cannot see anything. WTF?

Load up devil tools and overclock/undervolt as I see fit.

Is anyone else experiencing the video squish bug or the wi-fi direct blindness? I did a fairly thorough wipe, not sure what I can do about either of those things. The wi-fi direct I can work around, and from what I have seen the video camera 'works' although the interface while recording is a mess, that one is a serious bug and I am curious as to why no-one else is mentioning it. Maybe I should have booted up to this rom without the Devil Kernel flash to test that, but in past t0lte roms I absolutely needed the DK in order to even be able to turn wi-fi on so it is kind of a habit. Also, I likes me some OC/UV action, and the newest DK has full working sensors (which SlimBean did not).

Anyone?

In general if you are on N7105 (AT&T or Canadian or Euro) you usually MUST flash the Devil Kernel to use 'most' t0lte roms, and the newest one is very solid. Some International phones will fart a lung when it comes to APN settings but mine have worked perfectly, either way if you are dabbling in such sorcery make sure you have a solid full nandroid to fall back onto as well as backups of your modem files, your EFS stuff, and a basic idea of what your working APN settings are in case you need to tinker there to get data/SMS/MMS working for certain models.
