The developers are giving us roms for free and they work a lot to develop these roms

If you follow the opening instructions you will not face a problem

and you should always make a backup before doing anything in case so you could restore what you had originally

if you decided to dirty install kitkat over jellybean or anything else you should know that this is your problem now

but posting here blaming the developers for your mistakes is not acceptable

Eh, I love flashing and trying the new builds, but sometimes I just don't have the time to deal with all the work I have to do after the full wipe, since I don't like using Titanium to restore (had issues with it in the past), so it would be nice if I could have kept the 4.3.3 ROM for a little more, since it was working pretty well, until this update hit and all of a sudden it started having issues, forcing me to wipe and update. :crying:

Another one without reading comprehension.

2 recoveries installed....

Hi Guys..

I don't know what had happened in the past (Not amnestic)

But I find 2 recoveries (CWM & TWRP) installed in my device.

Any help to remove TWRP as I'm pretty comfortable with CWM.

Else do I need to flash stock and reflash Slimkat...?

Thanks

Try using Disable service app from the playstore and use it to disable fingerprint_scanner_static service.. Check if it improves the battery consumption.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Original Android Development] baastien:
Or try greenify app, that kind of freeze services without freezing the app. That keep it fully functional and usable

Font size

Hi all!

First, let me say - AWESOME ROM! I just flashed it on my father-in-law's N7000, and it really is THE best KK ROM I've tried on it so far. Slim as sh**! ;)

But, there is one problem... the font size is too smal for him, as he doesn't see that well anymore. Any chance to enlarge things a little bit? At least the font size...

Tnx in advance for all your help. :good:
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Original Android Development] HardCorePawn:
Possibly the CWM recovery on Philz kernel is too old... I forget the exact version number, but you need an up to date recovery for the flash script to work... try flashing the raw kernel for KK... then reboot recovery again and try flashing...

3rd answer in the FAQ in the OP's...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Original Android Development] ChoiceMC:
Jeah, just flash raw4_jb43 (not the raw5_kk44!!!) from recovery, reboot RECOVERY only, not system, and flash ROM then. It should go through just fine.

[MENTION=1663702]HardCorePawn[/MENTION], so I just change DPI? woops.. sory mate.. shoulda read the OP more carefully. I apologize :good:

what DPI you recommend? Just to make it slightly bigger. He could read just fine on Asylum KitKat, but I know nothing about DPI's and I couldn't guess the number :)

Hello HardCorePawn,

I tried updating CWM through ROM Manager, it said that Flashing was successful and when I rebooted the device. It is stuck at logo. I am unable to boot at CWM too. Please help....
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Original Android Development] HardCorePawn:
You cannot use ROM Manager...

on n7000, Kernel and Recovery are one single partition... you have to flash a Kernel with the Recovery that you want... As stated, flash Raw Kernel, reboot recovery... Flash ROM + Gapps
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Original Android Development] techblazes:
But sir, now what can I do? I am able to boot at download mode only. Please help
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Original Android Development] HardCorePawn:
Better find a .tar format kernel to flash via Odin (or Heimdall) then... or flash Stock ROM via Odin/Heimdall and start again...

Ok... so based on cgk's "workaround patch"... I have created a new build... :good:

I have upped it to dropbox... and have uploaded it to goo.im as well...

I would appreciate it peeps could try downloading and testing... hammer away at the sdcard and see if you can reproduce the sdcard bug...

I've had music playing off my sdcard via "Play Music" for a couple of hours without issue... and reports from the Omni thread seem to indicate it works for most things (some people having issue with dropsync, but I don't use that, so can't confirm)...

Have fun...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Original Android Development] X-Droidinary:
Downloading from Dropbox now. Will let you know what happens.

**EDIT**

I'm not having any problems with the sd card that I know of.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Original Android Development] X-Droidinary:
Looks like my internal storage for apps just ran out. I noticed it shows 2GB. Am I supposed to have more for apps?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Original Android Development] HardCorePawn:
Default partitioning on the n7000 is for a 2Gig /data partition... so yes, you're limited to 2Gigs for App internal storage... unless you either repartition using custom PIT file or try and move stuff to SDCard...

Not sure why Samsung did it like this... but I guess these devices were around long before the /data/media scheme that more modern devices (without SDCards) use...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Original Android Development] X-Droidinary:
Well that sucks. If I use a custom PIT file would that cause problems for this ROM?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Original Android Development] HardCorePawn:
Flashing a custom PIT isn't without danger... there are risks that you could brick your device if something goes wrong during the flash... having said that, several people seem to have done it without too many issues...

Using a custom PIT shouldn't break ANY custom ROM flashed via recovery... It might interfere with Samsung Stock ROMs, as they are flashed via ODIN and are expecting partitions in certain places... but I have no personal experience with using custom PIT files...

At your own risk etc etc... I take no responsibility for it... and neither does the author of the custom PIT files... http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2642299

Dear Friends,

Few noob doubts on how to install please:

1. I am on SlimBean 4.3 final build. No other changes have been made to phone.

2. I want to install SlimKat Build 4. Please tell me now I need to flash r4 or r5? Confused because of the below link:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2397000

3. The above link says r4 for 4.3 and r5 for 4.4, Currently I'm on 4.3 SlimBean so does that mean I need to flash r4 to move to SlimKat?

4. After I flash r4 or r5 as per your advice should I immediately do a full wipe? or the full wipe (wipe data/cache/format system) needs to be done before flashing r4 or r5 kernel?

5. please advice as I'm hoping to upgrade without a boot loop.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Original Android Development] LAKAME_MAN:
Flash r4, reboot recovery, full wipe, flash ROM and Gapps, reboot system :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Original Android Development] anjath:
Thanks a lot Lakame_Man.

1. Can you please tell me whats is the use of r5? Do I need to flash r5 once I'm on SlimKat 4.4.

2. Does USB OTG work on SlimKat? Currently OTG is working for me on SlimBean.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Original Android Development] LAKAME_MAN:
1. Don't flash r5. It has the issue where you can't install apps on the SD card. Some apps are installed the SD card by default, so you won't be able to install those at all.

2. I think so. I'm not completely sure but I haven't seen a 4.4 ROM that doesn't have OTG.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Original Android Development] anjath:
Sorry to keep bothering you :)

Please tell me what is the way to go back to SlimBean 4.3 in case I want to revert back from SlimKat. Thank you.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Original Android Development] LAKAME_MAN:
I'm pretty sure you can just flash it from SlimKat's stock recovery. Don't forget to full wipe :D

This is the step that i do :

1. Copy, raw_kernel_r4_j43 , Slimkat Rom, and Gapps to ext sd

2. Boot to download mode and connect phone to PC

3. Run Odin

4. Tick Repartition, auto reboot, freset time

5. Click PIT button and select the pit file of your desired app partition size (i used "n7000 16gb variant - 6gb data - 45mb preload.pit")

6. Click PDA and select custom kernel in *tar format (i used PhilZ-cwm6-ZSLO2-OZS-5.00.5.tar.md5)

7. Flash and reboot to recovery

8. Flash raw_kernel_r4_j43 in recovery

9. Reboot recovery

10. format data, cache, internal sd

11. Flash Slimkat ROM (I used Slim-n7000-4.4.2.build.4.4-WEEKLY-3788) and Gapps 4.4.2 build 4

12. Reboot

13. Finish :D

everything is working flawlessly, battery life is almost doubled, fast... perfect rom

2. is there a way to close every app opened in the task manager (I can close them one by one swyping to the left)?

First off I'd like to thank all the people working hard on this ROM. Amazing job and the rom feels really smooth and the way it sips from the battery is astonishing. I've been using my phone the way I always do and usually I barely make it to bed with power still in the device (I run it in power saving mode) and now it survives well into the morning with still about 40% battery left. I truly don't understand why OEMs are unable to do this, this rom is fast, stable and really efficient.

The only thing however is that I noticed that my phone isn't automatically connecting to my car anymore. I can pair it, but after that it stops working. Does anyone have an idea why this could be?

Thanks in advance for the help! :)

hi everybody

strange situation, everything was working flawlessly until few days ago (I'm on slimkat from 2 april)

I have a strange battery drain

one day I was in a call using bluetooth headset, at the end of the call my Note won't stop the conversation and the phone stopped to work at the point that I needed to remove battery and restart. When the phone rebooted I noticed that almost 15% of battery was gone

from that time I can see that battery lasted less than before (and other 3 problems occurred - when I was on the web, when I was on whatsapp and on the gallery - that blocked the phone, battery removed, -15% battery)

If I go in settings, battery, 59 % is Media. what does it mean? I used the phone only for some random whatsapp, web and calls 4h and battery drained at 18%

what can it be? how can I know what is causing this problem?

PS naturally I checked and no data was downloading, and the battery is running out very fast if I disable 3g and wifi too

EDIT: another thing, time for a full recharge is now almost doubled and the battery is original and 5 months old
