This has got to be a record right here

I did a megawipe,sdcard int/ext data sys dalvik etc, installed exactly as said in OP.

loaded up 1st time, installed apex launcher, changed to ART. this morning took phone of 100% charge and went to work.

I had 4G/LTE On, Wifi on *(but not connected) background data limited, not even greenified yet. 2 hours haven't even lost 1%, also in that time i had 1 call and 5 missed calls and about 5 or 6 sms. . how about that for elite. thanks Temasek for your awesome work, and will03 for putting together BS8 . also i get 4g at home now. where as before i was stuggling to hold 2g, if lucky 1 bar 3g. (live in a hollow part of street)

using EMJ9 modem/bb

also. update, im @ 85% battery, 9 hours later, made lots of calls/texts/photos uplaoded to net. browser etc. crazy battery man. just crazy, dialer crashed when i installed viber and tried to call out. downloaded 16mb (viber on 4g in 3 seconds). wow.

There should be a whisperpush app in your drawer. Just click on it and follow the prompts and you're good to go. :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] K-alz:
Yes there is and it only prompts to register then after that I receive a verification number that I don't know what do with. What's after? My god I feel so dumb. Lol
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Senyaka:
Once you get the code, it's also supposed to take you the Whisperpush site and you register the code there. But for whatever reason, it seems to fail to connect at times. So you got to keep registering till it does, then you put the code there. Haha It's not a perfect system yet, but it's a nice feature if you don't want the government spying on you. But then again, the government could be the one's saying to use this, so they can spy on you... Let the theories begin. Hahahaha But either way, it's here and you can choose to use it, or not. But as the first blog stated, the reciepiant also needs to be using Whisperpush or it's kind of pointless.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] K-alz:
Oh I see! Or we can just use SMS ninja which does the same thing.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Senyaka:
Haha Yes, this is very true.

Hi all, great work on the new rom Will, it is so fast/snappy just wondering if the black ui includes messaging and phone as I still have white ui in those areas ? (Possibly from my backup restore)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] K-alz:
I don't think it's working in this build. This is the initial release and the second update is only a minor update. Just wait and all the goodies are coming soon :)

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] kaibosh99:
I am just in the process of installing this, and have to ask - the Devil Kernel still works with this one, right? I ask because I want to keep my gyro working more than anything else.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] mashuto:
Sure does. Although it seems some people have the gyro working with the default kernel I was not one of them.

I am running the latest version of devil with this rom right now and it works great.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] sofia-captivate:
What's gyro everyone is talking about?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] mashuto:
The gyro sensor. Some apps need it to work properly, but for some of us it does not work on the default kernel. I also had Compass issues which I think were related.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] kaibosh99:
If you don't use photosphere or something like an augmented reality starmap you likely never use your gyro. It is a separate sensor from the accelerometer which is what most games use for 'tilt'. The Devil Kernel had various bumps in the road when it came to certain sensors on certain models of the Note 2, but the newest release has zero issues with sensors. It seemed like the I317M variant of the N7105 was particularly susceptible to sensor glitches (among other things, like wifi issues with some roms). This rom and Beanstalk were kinda built around the Devil/Perseus base, and I think with the 4.4 code there were a few bugs that Google left for Devs to trip over. Things are slowly sorting themselves out, in the meantime installing the Devil Kernel also gives a person the choice to do a little overclocking and undervolting.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] KEVK:
Installed this ROM yesterday and was impressed with how nicely it runs, especially coming from BeanStalk! I

hardly

:pused my phone today and after 14 hours I still had 89% battery...pretty nuts. Used my phone a little more this evening and with about an hour and a half of screen time had more than 60% battery left. Good job on this ROM!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] R0B3RTF1SH3R:
i did notice half the things you mentioned also. (minus the gaming stuff)

anyway, im having horrible battery life. got 12 hours and 50% already =(. i think 1st release i almost cracked 5 dayz

just want to add a question.

alot of ppl use greenify. recently im not sure if its just cm roms. but apps like google maps and the likes dont show up in greenify anymore. why?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] kaibosh99:
When it comes to Greenify and the Google apps... It is tough to control a lot of the Google stuff at that level, they are too tied together in the framework - which is why Greenify has slowly started filtering them out. You can still freeze and remove stuff you don't want in TB, you can use 'Disable Service' or 'Autorun Manager' to block individual calls, etc. It sounds like you are trying to contain the 'location services', which is rather heavy handed and intrusive to say the least anyway. The Google location services are a powerful tool that you need on the odd time, otherwise I keep it OFF. You likely already know about the modular gapps, as a way to further contain the Google root-kit.

I think Greenify is slowly becoming obselete, much like Juice Defender it is losing importance as android evolves. Obviously 'Betterbatterystats' (with the matching xposed module for kk roms) is your best bet to see what is really gobbling juice. Fantastic data logged with BBS.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] xsleazoidx:
Guys,after two days of running the latest ROM I start to get discharging problems with my phone. I tried with devil kernel and stock,different plugs and cables but still seems to happen. Any ideas?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] SIGMAxB:
Maybe a topical ointment or maybe antibiotics lol or try a fresh install

nice ROM working great for me thanks :D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Talbes:
I have been on v37 for a while - working quite well for me. Decided to Flash Devil kernel after reading good reports from others here. Did a dirty flash of just the kernel and noticed an immediate huge improvement in battery life. Unfortunately I got 3 random reboots in 24 hrs so I tried this:

* Cache and Dalvik wipe

* Flashed v41 ROM

* Flashed latest modular Gapps (4-4-2-20140201)

* Flashed Devil Kernel (2.3.2-t0lte-DUAL-20140102)

* Cache and Dalvik wipe

* Reboot (the long one)

* Reboot again.

Phone has been up for 2 days, no random reboots, fantastic battery life, BT in car works fine, every app I use works fine (I don't play games) and I have found absolutely nothing wrong at all, everything is perfect.

This is the best my GT-N7105 has ever been. Hope this helps some others.

Props to all the Devs and Willl03 for bringing this to us

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] numlauf:
so it seams like every time i dirty flashed a new version of this rom it would break the proximity sensor.

i got soo upset going from v 38 to v 41 and the proximity sensor broke and its such a pain to do a full wipe... setting up all my accounts and such.

so i tried the proximity sensor app of the market and it worked but constantly gave me an anoying unsupported device. so i decided to try the devil kernel even though i was a little leery using the non stock kernel for this rom.

i flashed kernal Devil2-2.3.2-t0lte-DUAL-20140102 and proxcemity sensor worked great. sooo happy

maybe because my device is tolte or idk but devil kernel did the trick

im really enjoying this rom. it occasionaly has some trips or trouble turning on the screen but who knows maybe this devil kernel will really make it shine.

thanks will
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] skyred5:
So just wondering, with every update of the version a full clean wipe is necessary to avoid all the problems, does anyone know of a way to backup settings done in Temasek spare parts?

It was only the other day I posted how I've never had any of the problems people have been posting about, and then WHAM! I lost WiFi on my phone, couldn't even turn WiFi on, and after many tries gave up and did a factory wipe and had to start my entire phone set up from scratch.

so i tried your mentioned battery pull for a few minutes. did work for about 12 hours. now terminator eye is back =(.

battery still under performing.... going to look @ returning to devil kernel. thanks

Also just want to mention browsing and typing sms etc. Whether pen or finger. I can't believe how inacurated and bad it is compare to other versions. Pressing stuff endless times. Like my Google folder on desktop. Click it 5x it just does misses or nothing or changes pages. That's only part off it. Took forever to type this and get to this page on mobile.

Edit. On devil kernel. Red sensor light comes on with call. Screen off works perfect. Off call. Red sensor light off

I just wanted to give a big thank you to will for continuing to bring us a high quality stable AOSP build for our device. His time and dedication to keeping us updated with the latest goodies has made me keep a smart phone for over a year. Cheers to you mate!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] gerazz:
how did you go about disabling the proximity sensor that turns the screen on ? I am using the v41 + Devil kernel.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Evermind10:
turn off lockscreen notifications and you'll lose the proximity sensor.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] lebertian:
I asked this a few pages back, got a response with something about not being possible (or not easily). I was hoping this was possible too!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] PROTUNER:
I have the same problem! :confused:

Terminator eye always on... :crying:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] mashuto:
The issues with the proximity sensor have been brought up and answered a million times in this thread.

1. Some users (like myself) have issues with the sensors on the stock kernel that comes with the ROM. For me, my proximity sensor was stuck on and my gyro (compass) would only work some of the time and when it did, it was backwards. The solution for me (and many others) is to use a different kernel. Personally I use Devil, others I think use agni. Those are two good options.

2. The lockscreen notifications include an option called pocket mode. I think it is enabled by default. What this does is when your screen is off, it turns the proximity sensor on so that if you have your phone in your pocket, it will turn the screen on when you take it out of your pocket to show you your notifications. All you need to do is turn it off, and the proximity sensor will go off (if that was actually the source of your issue).

If there is something else or new going on, I havent heard it, but those are the solutions that have been discussed before in this thread. Good luck!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] eksoccer99:
I've posted similar. No one reads. Ugh
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] lebertian:
For those having issues with games (Tapped Out, GTA: SA, maybe others?) with this ROM, here's a potential temporary fix I found in another XDA thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2622325&page=3

It's about replacing one file in CM 11 source that's causing the issue with the same file from a previous CM 11 build (it's very well explained in that thread). If this works (and as reported by user bruce2728 it seems to work), it could allow all those (including me) holding on updating the ROM since v36 (the latest where those games work) to get the latest version AND enjoy those games at the same time, while this is fixed in a future CM 11 build.

I haven't tried that yet, I won't have time until tonight, but I just wanted to post it here in case someone wants to try in the meantime and report any results.

Oh, and if it works, please thank that bruce2728 for the tip!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] solomon4400:
Thanks for this tip will try tonight.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Coito:
Sorry for the question, but I'm on V41 and I'm not seeing the option to turn off the pocket mode anywhere. Any ideas where that option might be?

Thanks,
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] mashuto:
System settings, temasek spare parts, screen and animations, lockscreen notifications

You should then see it in there, if it's enabled or not
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] lebertian:
There's one in Temasek SPare parts -> Screen and animations -> Lockscreen notifications.

Also, if you use Active Display (same path as Lockscreen notifications), it has its own Pocket mode, check that off too
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Coito:
Thanks guys, will do that :)

Edit;

Turned both off, rebooted and the eye is gone. ;)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Bigboifrank:
I have a couple of things I wanted to run by you guys:

1. When I open the messaging app, then click the icon to attach a file, then capture picture, it attaches fine and sends fine. However, the picture is not saved to the phone anywhere. When I open to view it in the message, there is also no option to save it anywhere. Now, please understand, I can go to the gallery and attach a pic just fine. But, if I open the messaging app and try to capture a pic instantly, boom, it is not in the gallery. Is this normal?

2. I also have family in Germany. I have some of the contacts listed with only the email addresses in my address book. They are in groups. In the stock Samsung messaging app, I can click on groups, and can then choose them to send a pic. However, the messaging App in Temasek only sees phone numbers, so my family in Germany is invisible. I mms them pics to their email because I can do it fast and include them with my family here; this way they don't feel like they are left out of kids pics.

Any help on these would be greatly appreciated. BTW, I just posted in 10 other forums just to be able to finally get in to the dev forums...I'm actually dang excited.

Thx for your hard work sir. FYI....I have a small recording studio in Atlanta. Let me know if I can remix anything for you.

What drivers do I need to connect this to my computer over USB? I use to be able to connect with this rom on my windows 7 system but I just got a new computer with Windows 8.1 64x and the drivers from my old system don't work. It connects as a GT-N7105 and is an unknown device. I have tried kies, the toolbox, and the drivers from Samsung, but have been unable to make it work. And yes USB debugging is on I have even tried it with it off.

Thoughts?

Thanks in advance.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] lebertian:
Is MTP connection on? By default this ROM doesn't have any kind of connection kind checked. With your phone connected to your computer, go to Settings -> Storage -> tap the 3 dots symbol on the top right -> select MTP.

So I've been having this weird problem with my lock screen where i try to lock it and the screen off tv animation gets stuck at the end and it looks like a thin line in the middle of the screen. When it happens i can't unlock the screen or do anything for a little until it stops. Has anyone else experienced this?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Eun-Hjzjined:
Yes, on this and other ROMs as well.

You have your animation set to vertical, right? That's the only time I have the issue.

I have rebooted, and fresh wiped the phone. None of this works.

Thanks. Now that I think of it, I was in an area where I only had 1 bar of LTE signal for the entire 2.5 hours.

Anybody know of a way to use Automateit or Tasker to switch from 4g to 3g when 4g signal strength gets too low?

Device Administration/Password options

I noticed a few glitches that I tried to fix by doing a factory reset clean install of v41. Now I don't see the Password or Device Administration options under Settings/Security. Anyone have a fix for this issue?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Itoshii:
I threw one together not sure if it works because it relies on signal strength not data strength (not sure if it matters). I can't test it since I live in the heart of Milwaukee and have full signal almost constantly. I will post instructions in a bit but due to using system variables/plug-ins I can't export it so I will have detailed instructions. So if you want to test it and let me know how it works that would be cool.

---------- Post added at 11:19 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:57 AM ----------

@Rasritz You will need Secure Settings from the playstore (free) this is for toggling 4glte.

Make a profile state, variable, variable value;

"%CELLSIG" exactly without quotes, maths:less than, 3.

Task, plug-in, secure settings;

under custom rom select LTE, off.

Then just make another profile the same except %CELLSIG maths:greater than 2 and task with LTE on.

Hope that works. If not let me know I can try looking into it more hopefully.

built in superuser does not ask for rights when I try using Root Explorer, it seemed to work fine with my other root app that I installed.

also there is no superuser in the app drawer, is this normal on this rom?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] gerazz:
Theres no superuser app, the built in one is accessible from settings. Scroll all the way down and you will see it near the developer options.

Ah.. Btw, Clean Install does not mean I need to wipe internal storage right? Just wipe system, data, cache and delvik, and factory reset?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Unknownkj:
Yup just factory reset, format data and then clear dalvik and cache. This will clear internal srorage so back up those data.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] gerazz:
Ahh..ic.. but my internal storage is not wiped. I would need to check "wipe internal storage" also for it to wipe. I guess I should install again, wiping internal storage this time!!! But, i just got 28 on flappy birds D: ... dat high score will be gone :( I use twrp, maybe thats the reason why my internal storage is not wiped automatically.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] mattlowry:
should be able to backup app data with titanium backup. you should not need to wipe internal storage. factory reset/wipe data, format system, cache, dalvik doing this will not wipe your internal storage
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Rasritz:
Thanks. It seems to work. I am at home and usually get 1 bar of LTE. It has switched it to 3 Sometimes 4 bars of 3g. I'll see how it goes when I go to work.
