Funny enough I went back to official CM 10.1 on the S2 as well. I've come to the conclusion that JB is just a much better and STABLE Rom for older devices like these. It's always a new battle or bug with each KK Rom I've used. We are over 4 months after KK's release without a stable device build for pretty much any device. Looking at CM's change logs seem to confirm these opinions. Not to mention better battery life with JB!
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] wrusry:
Thanks for the comments. Yes, looking forward to a stable 4.4 ROM for this phone. The CM11 from this thread performed very well in many aspects. The multitasking was better than any other ROM I have used on this phone. As far as what I saw, if it would just be able to play MP3's, it would be my daily driver.

My daughter has a S2 (hercules) and she used the CM downloader last fall to install an official CM10.2 (4.3). I haven't noticed and she hasn't mentioned any obvious bugs on it. Once I turned off the wifi scanning feature (uses wifi location even when wifi is off), the battery performance seems very good.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Dvarl:
I am able to play MP3s with CM 11 on my phone with no problems.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] wrusry:
Thank you. However, you are not using CM11 from this thread. I believe that you are using CM11 by JFBS. I have stayed away from that one after having issues with it earlier and seeing that others have issues with it. It now seems better, but the latest I saw it seemed like people were having GPS issues.

Hello, new cm11.0 build up. Note it does have a experimental camera test that i havnt tried myself. Please report back. If it doesnt work ill provide a update tomorrow.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Jorge_007:
I'm curious, what exactly does this "experimental" camera test do? I'll test it tonight and report back whether it works or not.

*UPDATE*

It doesn't work for me. It just stays in a forever Cyanogenmod loading screen. I left it for 10 minutes and it's still loading. I tried the stock kernel and the alternate kernel and it does the same thing.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] cars1189:
Was a new camerhal i wanted to try in order to find a fix for portrait video recording. Ty for trying ill make a new build tomorrow that should work like usual..
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Nitro Lopez:
I have also tried the new cm11 build and have had no luck getting past the boot screen..:crying: thanks for the update though and the hard work..:good:
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] cars1189:
New build up should be fine. TY for testing. Leaving old build but breaking link for more testing.(harder to dl so you know what your getting)

Just so you guys know i think im gonna be going with either a monthly update, or bimonthly.(can expect a build 2nd week of everymonth at least)
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Nitro Lopez:
I hate to be a prickly pete but I cant get it to boot. tried the adc kernel, the testing kernel and stock.. it just stays at the boot screen spinning endlessly..i'll try a few more times but I've never had to wait longer than 15mins for it to boot up but i'll give'm 20mins and an update if it works or not.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] smartguy044:
What steps are you doing to flash
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] atscntsc:
I encountered the same problem. To be sure, I reverted back to stock factory Samsung Rom and performed factory reset. Also performed all wipes. Using cwm.6047.t679. Tried installing with and without GAPPS. Stuck on spinning screen. :eek:
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Nitro Lopez:
All the usual. I wipe cache, partition, user data, system, data. I even format sd card 0. Then I flash rom, kernel, then gapps. I even tried with other kernels and stock. Two different gapps as well. Had to go back to 2-14 rom
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] cars1189:
Hmmm, i cant try it myself, need my phone on 10.1 for gps. I can try and make a new build tomorrow makeing sure to revert all camera tests, although im not sure why it wouldnt work. Sorry for the trouble.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] cars1189:
New CM11.0 up hopfully this one is fine. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] wrusry:
Thanks, as always! Do you know if this version can play MP3's? I will flash in the next few days.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] cars1189:
The latest build does work for me. I had to force reboot once(old power button to turn off then power back on) but after that it booted fine no FCs or anything. In fact not only did it boot but one of the 2 problems i had before was gps and testing gps in the same location, my room, i got more gps locks than with cm10.1. And i tested within minuets of each other, the first thing i did when i installed cm11 was test gps. So if anyone has any issues id say just reboot once although seeing as the build seems fine it would suggest that maybe if i just had waited longer it might have worked.

Of course since i reverted the camera test as i thought it might have broken the build...camera for video only and in portrait only still doesnt work. All else is fine like in previous builds.

If anyone else who doesnt use their for as their only phone or is willing to, maybe could test the first build i had made last week could try the reboot and see if the camera is any better?
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] atscntsc:
:good: Installation was successful.

Looks like MP3 playback is not working. The Google Play Music app reports "Music Playback error. Couldn't play the track you requested."
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Nitro Lopez:
i'm booted up, but i'm getting a lot of errors.. one right after the other. system process stuff, ui and android process errors.. not sure what u did to change the rom, maybe copy some settings from the jfbs rom? cuz this is what happens when I try and flash his roms.. I get a bunch of errors..i have a few more tricks up my sleeve i'll try and report back
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] atscntsc:
The Google Camera available from Banks GAPPS works in Portrait and Landscape both with Still and Video modes.

http://goo.im/devs/BaNkS/GApps/4.4.2
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Nitro Lopez:
are u using cwm or twrp.. and what verison if I may ask.. i'm using cwm 6.0.4.5.. just wondering if this is causing me errors..?
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] atscntsc:
No problems like that here. Prior to installation I performed a "Factory Reset", and once in CWM Recovery v6.0.4.7 I made sure everything was clear by performing the following steps.

1) Wipe data/factory reset

2) Wipe cache partition

3) Mounts & Storage -> format /system

4) advanced -> wipe dalvik cache

Then I proceeded to install the CM11 zip with Banks GAPPS (minimal).
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Nitro Lopez:
ok thanks.. that's exactly what I do as well.. i'll try and upgrading to 6.0.4.7 and see if that helps.. the gapps in this thread have always worked wonders for me but I guess trying banks gapps wouldn't hurt.. thanks for the reply..

---------- Post added at 09:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:43 PM ----------

unfortunately, the process com.android.phone has stopped.. this is bumming me out a lil bit..i'm sure if I revert to the 2-14 rom it'll boot up just fine.. appreciate the work on the rom, too bad I cant use it
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] cars1189:
As has been reported 3rd party camera apps do work, this includes the google camera app. Also mp3s do not work and this at least for me on this latest build includes ringtones. I believe it might be something in the kernel related to mixing the Ariesve dev con team audio-caf repo with arcos kernel. Ill test later and report back.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] atscntsc:
For what it is worth, I was one of the lucky ones who had success with the early jfbs builds. I recall your phone had problems with the early builds also. Maybe that issue has crept back in. As I recall, it was some issue with the kernel.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Nitro Lopez:
your probably right. I tried just booting with stock, adc kernel, and the linaro kernel all with and without gapps installed, no luck though..its all good though. version 2-14 works just fine for me. i'll keep trying with other updates though.. keeps up the good work cars!
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] cars1189:
Hello, it does to appear to have been a kernel issue. As far as audio goes.You can flash this on top of the latest update,3-19-14 rom, to fix it. http://d-h.st/858

edit: Typo meant 3-19-14 not 3-18-14
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] atscntsc:
Thank you Cars!

Ringtones are working with this updated kernel. Still encountering same play back error with MP3.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] cars1189:
What app are you using? I tried MP3s with apolo, vlc, and google music, and they all work fine. I did notice that google play music though selects the wrong song like you hit one and it like highlights to show you selected it but it playes w.e. it 2 songs before that...kinda odd but must be a app bug because it shows selecting the right thing oh well. However all of them do play music just fine so idk. If you can provide app name logs and what not maybe i can help? It seems like its a app issues though.

also are you using headphones or any other external device for audio?

@ everyone Note: Idk if i mentioned before but there is a bug with lpa where audio doesnt get routed properly using an external device so if thats the case you can disable lpa in the /system/build.prop.

Edit: Also i just found apparently the Aresve-Dev-Con fixed lpa. yay! The commit that fixed lpa is why audio didnt work at first on the other build but i wasnt sure if it worked however i just tested and it really does work. So awesome more power savings when playing audio ftw!
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] jfbs:
LPA isn't routing to headphones and is still disabled in their system.prop.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] wrusry:
Cars: I used the "fix audio" kernel on the 2-14-14 build. It partially fixed the issues I was having with audio. It did fix the ability to play tunes (previews) from the google play store whereas this previously had not worked. However, the behavior in Apollo was still the same. If I clicked on a song that was a MP3, it would not play that, but instead would skip to the next song that wasn't in MP3 format and would start playing this non-MP3 song.

Seems like you are on the right track, though.

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] atscntsc:
Ok, a performed a little more testing. I tried both Apollo and Google Play Music which I downloaded from the play store. My experience matches wrusry in the post above. For testing, I downloaded example files for .wav, .flac, and .ogg. These formats play fine with both Apollo and Google Play Music. :good:

But, files in the .mp3 format will not play. :confused: If I can produce a useful log, I will post it here.

As you noted, headphones are working for music playback. :victory:

I personally do not expect any fixes, but wanted to share my experience, to hopefully help you and others. Thank you for everything you have already done. :good::good::good:
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] cars1189:
so i did a bit of reasearch and it seems like its a common problem with the google play music app. I coulda swore it was working last night and it might have something to do with lpa as i switch that on at some point and now its not working. So you can try that but also some poeple said

Other than that theres nothing i can do as it seems to be a google play music error. You could maybe try loading an old version of the app if you use something like titanium backup and have a copy or something....but other than those two things theres nothing i can do.

[MENTION=5006143]atscntsc[/MENTION] @ otherstoo

Edit: ok so i can confirm it is infact a problem with lpa and some apps. you can disable it in the /system/build.prop just set both lpa options to false.

lpa.decode=[B]false[/B]
lpa.use-stagefright=[B]false[/B]

It is only in some apps though and happens with stock roms too in some cases so im not sure it can be fixed. In the chance that it is fixable rom or kernel side i have told the AriesVE-DevCon-TEAM and arco since they are the ones who have gotten lpa to where it is now about the issue and well see if they have any ideas.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] cars1189:
[MENTION=4657373]jfbs[/MENTION] If you use their kernel and audio-caf it works now idk if they changed something recently or what but there are some fairly new commits and i can confirm it does work. I plug/unpluged speakers in multiple times over and over and it switched every time.

Edit: Also the error with it selecting the wrong song seems to have just been a glitch when i was just testing now for the lpa issue it was selecting fine.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] jfbs:
This log is suspect and was recently added to fw/av: W/AudioTrack( 514): AUDIO_OUTPUT_FLAG_FAST denied by client due to mismatching sample rate (48000 vs 44100).

I'm testing a build from Monday and mp3's play without an issue using play music and Apollo.

If anyone is up to it, try editing the build.prop and either remove af.resampler.quality=255, or change 255 to 4. Otherwise, the device may be missing some libs.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] atscntsc:
:good: Setting the props to false solved the problem with mp3 playback.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] wrusry:
This also corrected my problem. Thanks, Cars! I had flashed the kernel as well prior to chaning the props to false. I assume that both were necessary or is it only changing lpa options necessary?

I'm giving the ROM a good try now.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] cars1189:
Both are needed. with just rom you get no audio with rom+kernel you get some audio. With both you get audio all the time normal.

Edit: Also for those that wana try imo gps is already improved in this last build over the others however i have a new config that i think has improved it. I havent tried it much but it seems to be more consistantly better.

New Config : http://d-h.st/jXe

Original Config : http://d-h.st/WFQ

Both flashable cwm zips. IF you want give it a try and if it overall seems better maybe ill include it in next update. I do believe though that it will work best on tmobile so if you are not on that carrier you can try but it may have a bad effect instead of better. Which is why im not sure if i should include it. Let me know!
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] atscntsc:
Flashed the GPS update to test. Seems fine, although GPS was working well with last build also. I use GPS for navigation and both versions of config seem to lock quickly and track accurately. :good:

I am running on T-Moble network.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] cars1189:
Yea both are pretty much the same but with the new config it stores your location between sessions. So sometimes when you first start it itll have a accuracy of like 1000ft+ but then once it updates it goes down really fast as it updates the stored location from where you last used it. It also adds a ntp server setting that was pressent in stock rom that for w.e. reason cyanogenmod didnt include thats non carrier specific. Also i did add a setting that is carrier specific. Idk well see i guess how it turns out overall. Sometimes it seems like the time of day can affect if so ill keep trying at different times and what not and maybe i can get an idea of how and what works best.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] cars1189:
New CM11 up. Might be doing less 10.2 builds...not alot is changeing.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] danny8:
Newest CM11 either bootloops (w/ GApps) or FCs (no GApps) on my device. Tried installing with both CWM and TWRP.

It seems the newest builds of jfbs and cars don't want to run on my phone out-of-the-box. I'm not complaining, just remarking on my situation. Once successfully installed, the few that run run alright.

If I were to sell or give my phone to another person, I'd have to figure out which ROM to install. My current phone cannot withstand a factory reset. Doing so necessitates a partial restore (/data) from a known working Nandroid Backup.

I cannot pass the phone on like that. I'd have to go back a few months to pick a ROM that's bulletproof ...maybe cars' CM10.2

I always appreciate everybody's work despite my moaning.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] jajb:
Have you tried jfbs 04/02 build? Personally, this build has been the most stable for me and I've had very few problems. In addition, thanks to jfbs adding the Performance Control app, my phone has been running exceptionally well!
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] danny8:
I will take a look at that. Thanks.

[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] cars1189:
New CM11 up again, this one seems to solve some issues with poor gps in comparison to the last build. New Kernel to go along with it soon i just didnt have time today ive been trying to solve some issues with a potentially better camera code that might be able to solve that video bug.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Nitro Lopez:
I suggest u try an array of GAPPS.. I had the same problems. these CM11 roms are kitkat 4.4.2, try n look for GAPPS for kitkat 4.4.1 those worked for me.. now any of them work for me.. hope u can get it going..
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] danny8:
OK, I will look into that, too. Thanks.

I'm assuming you're suggesting to try some older GApps and by array you mean try more than one 'till I find one that works.

But seemingly my issues go deeper, 'cause the bare ROM w/o GApps bootloops. The bare ROM should boot with no GApps, I believe. I've tried the latest CM11 (cars) since I posted the one you quoted. Bad as ever, worse really, can't even fix it using a /data overlay.

I think I'll look into that OP alternate kernel as time permits. And play with GApps choices once/if I get the bare ROM working.

I'm pretty careful not sloppy, so I think my hardware is ever so slightly different, causing some unexpected failure. Meanwhile, I pretty happy running DarkCM 0411.

Long as I don't reset my phone (why would I) I'm running damn fine.

Battery life is excellent, rotating three batteries in service. I never plug in a micro-USB cable. Just swap in a fresh battery every day and a half, or two or even three. Oh, and I'm overclocked by 18%.

CM11 Update

Hey guys new cm11.0 up. This build fixes portrait video however camcorder 180 degrees aka phone upsidedown is still scrambled it should be easy to fix though so ill proabably update again soon.

[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 General] Lyric Kayden:
First off I'm new here and would like to say hello to everyone.

So recently I bought the Note 10.1 2014 and love everything about it. But I've been reading and I'm confused.

So I've noticed from the CES reports and other reports on the Web about the Note Pro line being released here soon. The Note Pro will be released in 12.2, 10.1 and 8.0 displays. With the Note Pro 10.1 you see the specs are the same as the Note 10.1 2014. And the only difference between the 10.1 and 12.1 is display sizes being 2.1 difference.

The Note 10.1 2014 was just released and I don't understand this. I thought buying the 10.1 2014 I was buying Samsung's top of the line tablet PLUS it was titled the 2014 edition but now we see the Note Pro 12.2, 10.1 and 8.0.

Will the 10.1 2014 be overlooked, discontinued, forgotten about, not recognized and support goes down hill? Will they do away with it? Was I screwed by Sammy?

How is this possible when the Note Pro and the Note 10.1 2014 have the same specs and the Note 10.1 2014 was released for 2014?

Is the Note 10.1 2014 basically a Note Pro 10.1? Because the Note Pro will be released in 12.2, 10.1 and 8.0. Basically Samsung will re box all the Note 10.1 2014's to new Note Pro boxes?

I'm wondering if I purchased wrong now ALTHOUGH the Note Pro and Note 10.1 2014 have the same specs.

Thanks and look forward to everyone's replies and thoughts. Please reply. Thanks
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 General] BarryH_GEG:
Here's Samsung's 2014 tablet line, the first of which was the N10.1-14.

1) Note 10.1 2014 Edition

2) Note 12

3) Galaxy TabPro 8.4

4) Galaxy TabPro 10.1

5) Galaxy TabPro 12

The TabPro 10.1 and TabPro 12 are "Note's" without S Pen and, with the exception of the former having 2GB of RAM, share identical specs with their Note brethren.

I have no idea what Samsung's going to do with Galaxy Tab 3 line or the Note 8 in terms of continued sales. I'm guessing the G-Tab 3's will soldier on with price cuts to appeal to the low-end. It wouldn't surprise me if sometime, maybe the second quarter, if Samsung announced a Note 8.4.

The N10.1-14 will receive 4.4 and the Magazine UX probably before the above new tablets are released or right after. The Note-series delivers Samsung's highest tablet margins. If you read their earnings preview they need to boost their margins badly. Hence the onslaught of premium tablets just announced. So if you don't need S Pen return your N10.1-14 and buy a G-TabPro 10.1 and save $100-150 (WAG). If you really wanted a larger screen return your N10.1-14 and get the N12 and pay $100-150 (WAG) more. Regardless, the N10.1-14 isn't going anywhere.
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 General] Lyric Kayden:
So my Note 10.1 2014 is not being replaced by a Note Pro 10.1? Basically your saying their only bringing out a Note 12.2 while also having the Note 10.1 2014? I guess they just released the Note 10.1 2014 ahead of time? Lol

Now talking about "Pro" series. Is this only what Tab is being called for example as you said TabPro?

Because what I thought I read was Samsung was releasing:

Galaxy Note Pro 12.2

Galaxy Note Pro 10.1

Galaxy Note Pro 8.0

Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2

Galaxy Tab Pro 10.1

Galaxy Tab Pro 8

So is the Note series not getting the "Pro" in the name (like above) and only the Tab series (like you listed above)?

I'm just really confused

BTW I use my S Pen a lot and love it.
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 General] N'ash:
There is no Galaxy Note Pro 10.1
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 General] Lyric Kayden:
So... is the Note 10.1 2014 going to from here on out or will it now be re branded as the Note Pro 10.1? Reason be is it has the same specs as the Note 12.2 basically and has the S Pen. BTW it is a 2014 edition. I mean you couldn't just bring out a new tablet for 2014 and wipe it aside for newer models.

Plus the tabs are being called the TabPro's so is the Note 10.1 2014 basically or will it also be known as the Note Pro 10.1? I'm thinking Samsung will probably just re box the Note 10.1 2014 with a box that says Note Pro 10.1 instead. Because basically same specs and S Pen. And again its the new 2014 model of the Note tablet and nothing really different.
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 General] Soryuu:
To clarify all the confusion:

The Note 10.1 2014 will retain its name for now at least.

The Note 12.2 Pro is exactly the same as the Note 10.1 2014 aside from the new software and the increased size.

The Tab series now has a Pro lineup, seeing as how you have

-Tab 3 7.0, 8.0 and 10.1

Which are all midrange/low-end.

The Tab Pro series, clearly focused on the high end, are

-Tab Pro 8.4, 10.1 ad 12.2.

These all make up the new high-end tablet range from Samsung.

Two Notes, the 10.1 2014 and the 12.2 Pro, and three Tab Pros.
