Been nosing around, and does the NWL basically keep the phone out of deep sleep? I recently got a note 2 (previously had an S3), so I'm still learning the norms and quirks of this thing. Lots of reading. :thumbup:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] wolfeyes30:
Yes.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] kude87:
Is the impact on battery life noticeable?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mikeyxda:
Are these just nag messages because I could disable those. Or do you actually get disconnected?

Mike
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] wolfeyes30:
Not that I have seen. My battery life has been great. Ymmv

When that message first pops up there is an option to Not Show again and I always say yes. Is that the same message?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] kude87:
Thanks for the input.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DrunkUncas:
Not entirely sure. On one occasion, I did have a significant amount of trouble, but I was downloading one of your aborted updates that AFH ate in the middle of the night, so I can't really lay the blame solidly on the phone.

If anything, my battery has been better with the ZWL. I've gotten 48 hours with light usage on the old build.

4 cores, with 1 awake all the time, seems to draw less power than 4 cores falling asleep, and waking up constantly.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mikeyxda:
There are so many permutations of setups, running programs, and configurations that this sort of thing is hard to measure accurately. Some people with certain setups will see a little more battery draw. Others a little less. It's not something that screams "this thing eats battery" so I think the ZWL is certainly worth it even if there is a little more battery drain.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] kude87:
Does this have volume rocker to skip track when screen is off baked in? Or just use xposed?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mikeyxda:
No, I looked into porting that mod to 4.3 but the framework is not even there any more to add it. It has to be completely rewritten for 4.3. I don't personally use/need that functionality but I did test Pocket Skip Track from Google Play and it works fine if you want that feature.

Mike
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] bigmike35:
Just a small comment, not a big deal, I was wondering is there was a way to add a small am/pm (upper case) to the right of the clock. Seems wanam/gravity this feature does not work along with adding a shorten day of the week before the text (i.e mon tues wed....) is uppercase as these wont set. Is this due to the framework or completely removed from this rom? I can center the clock and change colors tho, just can't add these to the clock. Other then that, running really smooth, the double tap on the power toggles is kinda a pain as sometimes it just turns off/on unless you get the timing just right but it works; longpress would be easier. Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] kude87:
Not a problem. I appreciate the info on it! I used to use wanam xposed for my S3 on 4.3 and it worked.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] wolfeyes30:
Wanam volume skip track works perfectly. Running wanam here but I always wonder how much battery xposed consumes.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] kude87:
True. I never thought I noticed any discernable difference, but I usually had a bunch of mods at one time in addition to wanam, so it would be difficult for my usage to pin down wanam as a battery intensive mod.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Breezer23:
My wifi stops transmitting. It's been an issue on every 4.3 ROM for me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] torr310:
How about wait for 4.4 and stick with 4.1.2? Don't know why Samsung didn't release 4.3 with minimum bugs. I am still on 4.1.2 and it seems worry-free.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] bigmike35:
For the Wifi toggle in Power toggles, in the settings I have show ssid network under the wifi setting, but when connected, I do not see this display or name anywhere. The battery worked with colors but wifi isn't displaying what network it is connected to
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mikeyxda:
I took an hour and did a little checking and looked at the code that is generating that unstable WiFi message. The WiFi Watchdog code actually starts and stops a system timer and when too much time has elapsed for WiFi packets, it sends a poor link notification (the unstable message). I am able to get that message at will now, but only if I switch to my 5G network which has less signal strength and go all the way to the back of the house where I show 0 to 1 WiFi bars. If I go back there and try to access the internet, after about 10 seconds I get the unstable WiFi message. Seems legit to me. The WiFi signal is so bad that it is losing packets. I know it's telling the truth because I can only get a web page to come up about 1 out of every 4 times. If I walk 10 feet out of that room toward the router, it works and I stop getting the unstable message.

Everything seems to be working properly, at least on my phone: that message is popping up only when WiFi is losing significant packets. I'm not saying it's impossible for there to be something in the framework that also causes lost packets and triggers the message (lots of router brands and configs out there), but for my phone at least, it is popping up that message only when I'm too far from the router.

AFAIK, previous versions didn't have this warning notification so it is possible that since reports of this are pretty sparse, the few people reporting this problem have been getting packet errors for many versions... and just didn't know it until now, because we have the message.

Mike
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DrunkUncas:
Is there any possibility that the new radio has caused a decrease in WiFi reception?

Also, is the notification just a notification, or does it actually DO something?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mlin:
If you have "auto network switch" checked, then yes, your phone will switch to a more stable connection (different WiFi, or 3g/4g). If unchecked, then nothing will happen.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] bigmike35:
what kinda of battery life are people getting on this rom. Hours on battery and on screen time. I am trying to let the rom and everything settle in but so far it seems my battery drain is pretty high so far. I am used to see about 35hours -+ and 5-6hours on screen time. At the drain rate I don't think I will be anywhere near that. Stock kernel, leave sync off, control my brightness, power savings is screen dim, s pen is power saved.

Update: Battery: 5hours running and 1hr 15mins (Underclocked at 1200/200) 78% left
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] merashallan:
I think this may be a case of Samsung not realizing how bad some real-world networks are, especially in areas where many adjacent wifi networks are sharing the same channels. It would be nice if the timeout was a tunable parameter.

Thanks for all your work in figuring this out!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] bambamishere:
I just flashed the stock toggles,but thre blue,any way to change back to white?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] wolfeyes30:
Stock are green. Need white then install wanam xposed module.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] bambamishere:
Look blue to me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] wolfeyes30:
Same here. When were they white? Different rom?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] bambamishere:
Could have been another rom,lol,just had it in my mind stock was white,lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] wolfeyes30:
Lol. Stock is that ugly green that Samsung uses. Can't stand it. I think Mikey changed to blue in V2 or V3. Can't remember.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] hopesrequiem:
It was from the start in v1. Started off right. :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] wolfeyes30:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] JustSomeDude:
As said before, flash zip from your internal SD
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mikeyxda:
Did some looking at volume skip yesterday. To work it into the framework is a big job (too many hours for me) but I did notice something that can be done rather easily. As I said, I don't really use my phone for music so I'm looking for feedback. My idea (that would not take long to program) is to make the volume up/down buttons skip tracks when the screen is off instead of doing volume up/down. If you want volume up down, you can just wake the screen and then use vol up/down with the screen on. Simply put: volume = skip tracks when screen off and volume when screen on. This is much easier to program than doing the dual click and long press. Would anyone find this useful? I figure if you listen to a lot of music, you might skip tracks more than you change volume so this might help?

P.S. I know it's pretty easy to do the long press volume skip thing via Xposed but I can guarantee that the above will use ZERO battery! Not sure about Xposed: never used it.

Mike
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DrunkUncas:
I'm getting a ton of these. I think the notification might be a tad too sensitive. I'm getting it in my house, and have had zero problems with any of my other devices.

I vote we kill it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] JustSomeDude:
I got this message a few times when I first flashed this rom, but then I checked the "don't show this again" box, and it's stopped. Did you all not get that option?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DrunkUncas:
I must have missed it. Getting old is a *****.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] hopesrequiem:
I just want to say thank you again for all your work and how good your work truly is. Tried a different ROM last night, and the theme was nice but nothing beats this ROM. Came back within an hour. Did a full clean flash and now this thing is truly flying. This ROM is the best

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] BigggJack:
I had the update notice & looked at the new permissions, promptly denied the update and turned off the app in application manager. :rolleyes:

I don't use unauthorized tethering with my unlimited or anything,but, they damn sure done need to have me hand them the keys to my castle.

Wasn't too happy about it as I did use the app to check my usage when I thought I might be running it up and see where the family stood on our shared minutes.

---------- Post added at 07:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:41 PM ----------

I usually use my bluetooth headphone controls to those functions most of the time, your option seems like a good solution for when I am hooked up to speakers. Any chance another hard key or volume + & - simultaneously could be used as a play/pause command?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] sthrnsprtsmn:
I would prefer having the volume skip function over volume control. If you don't put it in the next build, could you point me in the direction to do it myself. Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mikeyxda:
I have it working now. It's pretty slick. It skips forward/back the instant you press the volume up/down keys with the screen off. If you want to control volume, just press the home key first to wake the screen and then use the volume keys. I actually prefer this to the long press (because its faster). :) I'll include it in the next build.

Mike
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] bigmike35:
really enjoyed this rom beside the battery life just wasn't all that great. The zero wake lag I think effected me more then what some see. Phone was just losing battery left and right just sitting there. After 12.5hrs and 2.25hours on screen I was already at 40% and later died at 20hours. I am use to seeing 35-40hours with 5-6hours on screen, hopefully zero wake lag can become a addon or something, I mean I rather my phone sleep and not lose battery and take 2 secs to wake up then instantaneous, seriously what is a sec or two to wait for a phone to come on, I rather get those extra 15hours of battery.

As of now I am at 15hours, 1.5+hours of on screen at 76% battery...just to show a difference

Once again tho, thanks for the rom and your hard work, I liked it
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] hopesrequiem:
Smh. Zero wake lag will always be the primary option here. It's what sets mikes rom apart. Other roms use zwl but Mike perfects it. If you don't want that, don't use the rom. Plenty of us get great battery life with it on so don't bash his work. Thanks. This is not meant to be mean so please don't take it out of context. Just stating the facts
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] bigmike35:
I wasn't bashing, I said it affected me compared to others and I noted that. Every phone is different and reacts different and thats understood. I said it was a nice rom and I like what he did with it, all the theming and coding behind scenes, I know it takes a lot of effort and time; in no way shape or form would I take that away from a dev. You should do a better job of reading next time before answering. I was stating the facts as well. Are you getting 35-40 hours running this build? That's great battery life to me. Thats what I am seeing out of other builds.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] hopesrequiem:
Even with my warning, you took what I said out of context. I get between 24-28 hours on. Any more than that is unneeded to me. I have a charger at all times. I don't need to have my phone off charger for as long as possible. Being able to use the device instantly is more important. Clearly we have different things that are important to us in terms of rom. This discussion is ended. It will only get negative so take this as a truce
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] bigmike35:
I agree with needing different things in roms, I do a lot of traveling and business sometimes charging isn't an option, yes can I carry spare batteries, absolutely. I voiced my opinion and was thanking the dev for a great stock rom and I know one person thoughts isn't going to recode a rom, I was just looking on feedback on battery life for others to see if what I was getting was normal since I don't use zwl roms was all. If that is normal then thats fine, as you stated 24hrs for a phone/battery is still really good in reality, normally you can find a charger by then for sure. And its micro seconds of a deference of the phone coming on and off, it ain't going to kill no one. Ended, back on subject.

Hi Guys..

i have ported Xperia Z1 home for CM11 Rom but i m facing one issue that shortcuts of the apps which are on sdcard disappeared after restart.

Again i have to add them manually. i didn't get any exceptions thats why i need help.

Can someone who are using Xperia Z1 Stock Rom please conform that its a normal behaviour of Xperia Z1 launcher or not??
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eclyptos:
Happen to me all the time. After the reboot do you see Green Android Icon but not the Icon of the Application?
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ashishdubey:
i not able to see Green Icon also..
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eclyptos:
Ok, some time after reboot if you see a Green Android Icon instead of the Application Icon that mean the app is not yet loaded so my advice is to leave the phone few minutes alone after rebooting to let him load all the stuff. Also I had this issue with my Z1 at the beginning when icons disappear and instead of the App Icon I had a empty space. I update my launcher to newer version and I never saw this problem again. Can be the Launcher it self, try to switch to different one.

May I ask you which rom give you the option to move the apps to SD?
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ashishdubey:
Not Rom gives u that option but u need to install third party apps like ROM Toolbox ,Link2SD,App2sd etc for moving apps to sdcard
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] senthilvigneshkumar:
I have the same problem. Where is the link located when moving apps to sdcard? I find no link of the app anywhere.

there is the logcat while moving apps to sdcard...

while rebooting, it is saying that metadata is missing. :confused:

I think its cm issue, no launcher shows the app

Hello guys,

Well the title says it all, i really need help connecting it, i cant seem to get it working, my tablet is running Android 3.2.1 and well when this is what happens:

I press the home botton on the controller and turn it on, the light under the 1 is flashing slow, also i make sure the little switch is on gamepad HID mode.

I then press the home botton on the controller again to set it on "pair" mode, the light under the 1 starts flashing fast.

I then press on "Find near by devises" and the controller shows up.

I click on it and the control and tablet pair, but then it wont connect like its suposed to, instead, the light under the 1 starts flashing slow again.

When i try to connect to it by pressing on NYKO PLAYPAD in the bluetooth device list, i get a little message saying, "Please press any key on your keyboard to reconect," i pressed every botton, moved all the Analogs in every way possible, and it just wont connect... Ive also tried pressing all the buttondps while the control being on pair mode with the light flashing fast.

Same thing happens on HTC Evo 4G but i dont get any messages, and the same goes for a Samsung Galaxy Tab 7" and well not to mention my iPod 4, on it it wont even show up....

So please can anyone help me? Thanks in advanced...

Is anyone else having haptic feedback issues with their phone? I bought the phone from googleplay the first day it was available. It was all fine and dandy until a few days ago. Now, once a day the haptic feedback stops working until I reboot. anyone else with this kind of issue?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] John723:
Power saving might be doing it. There is an option within power saving so that even if Haptic is showing turned on it will turn it off to conserve battery. Uncheck that and you should be fine. At least I was, have not had an issue since then.

Hi everyone,

First of all, please forgive me of my noobishness as this is my first post on the XDA forums.

My Galaxy S4 (SCH-I545) was working fine today. It was also rooted. As some of you may know, you are not able to recieve software updates if your phone is rooted, so I decided to try unrooting it and flash the unrooted stock firmware.

I booted into download mode and started Odin with the stock firmware in the PDA section. No other settings were changed. I attempted to flash the phone, and it failed with "sw rev check failed".

I tried restarting the phone. It came to the screen "Firmware Update Encountered an Issue".

Later, I was reading about the PIT file. I downloaded the PIT file for the SCH-I545 and flashed it. It failed on the phone with "Secure Check Fail: PIT". It failed on Odin with "Re -Partitioning Failed".

I restarted the phone again. It now displays "Samsung Custom" with a little unlocked padlock under it. I left it there for 20 minutes, it stayed on the same screen.

I tried booting into the stock recovery with success. I immediately selected "Wipe Data/Factory Reset". After this, I restarted the phone.

When the phone came back up, I booted into download mode and tried flashing again. This process failed with the same error "sw rev check failed". It again went to "Firmware Update Encountered an Issue". I repeated flashing the PIT, which failed again, but I was then able to boot into recovery once more.

At this point, I have wiped the data. The phone is sitting on my desk right now, completely wiped and able to boot into recovery, I just need to get this fixed ASAP because it is my only means of contact.

Can anyone help me as far as not being able to flash the phone? I apologize if I am confusing you, I just want to be as descriptive as possible to get the best help.

Thank you everyone for your time.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] gnubian:
wut? Take 2 minutes to search for the Odin file of the build you were on, boot into odin mode and on 3.09 odin version load it to the ap section.

You CAN take OTA on rooted software.

sorry if I sound rude but you shouldn't root your phone if you can't even Google a solution to the possible problems that can occur.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Squerl101:
Did you even read the whole post?

I CANNOT FLASH THE PHONE WHATSOEVER. It fails with "sw rev check failed" EVERY TIME.

As far as your saying of being able to take OTA on rooted firmware, it really isn't applicable to me right now considering my phone does not have an operating system on it.

Maybe someone that actually has useful information can help me?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] decaturbob:
You haven't indicated what base is your phone originally and what stock image you were trying to flash.. Also...try to understand the frustration so many of us have with people that are jumping into something without researching as best as they could.

That's your problem. You can't revert to an older build. You have to flash the build you were originally on.
