Hi [MENTION=5760961]osd_daedalus[/MENTION]

Yes, I do always flash the GAPPS after the ROM - both clean and dirty flash.

With TWRP you can queue the flash files so it is no hastle.

jajb GAPPS Minimal X also gets rid of a bunch of stuff I don't want in the ROM, Live wallpapers etc.

Also, the GAPPS Minimal X only contains the basics, Play Store, Play Services etc.

My other Google Apps are installed from the Play Store, so update through the Play Store as normal.

There should be no need to flash the GAPPS file after the ROM flash as the ROM doesn't overwrite any GAPPS stuff as far as I can see.

So I suppose it's habit really.... although the clean up of live wallpapers etc. is useful, saves me from doing it manually.

I don't know if you'll need to clean flash to move from PA to jajb.

I didn't when moving from Banks to jajb, but jajb is basically a straight continuation of Banks with enhancements.

To an extent, GAPPS are GAPPS, wherever you get them from, they contain pretty much the same files, although some are modified to black them out etc.

Give it a go as a dirty flash and see if the Play Store and your calendar sync still work.

One of the things I like about jajb is the file size, it doesn't contain all the other Google stuff.

Most of the PA packages are the same size as they contain the same files with different install scripts.

So the PA small packages install a small subset of the Google stuff, but the ZIP file contains pretty much all of the Google stuff.

For those having lags while using micro SD card, try to format this one with exFAT filesystem.

Doing so made mine file transfert and music listening much more reliable.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] osd_daedalus:
Just did the job... looks like jajb, during flash process, removes "remnants of GApps" and maybe also PA ones. Play Store and Calendar sync works well... maybe even faster! But can be my impression...

That's an interesting thing... will try as I return home :D

Instagram problem

I'm running on a testbuild at the moment (5th October 2014, v8.0). Everything is working just great. But I have a small problem, I can take videos with instagram. But when I want to upload them, the uploading progress gets stuck and it doesn't upload. I've already tried force closing the app and using it again. But no luck. Can anyone help me out? I really love this ROM!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] osd_daedalus:
exFAT

Formatted external sd card (samsung 32gb) to exFAT and *I feel* apps on sd card run faster, although I haven't done a benchmark to confirm this.

Still anyway I continue to getfreezes especially on compulsive texting but also while navigating... I have 1-2 freezes per day now. (is it normal that free RAM of mine goes around 18 MB left? Free RAM is wasted RAM, right?)

Inquiring right now on Theme Engine: reverted to Holo theme, I got a SystemUI reboot but all goes well for now. I will inquire on Android AOSP keyboard too (will try later to use another keyboard).

As before, IF I am at home and get a freeze, I'm going to attach a logcat hoping something useful can be extracted from there...

Halo problem

Hi!

On the lastest version available to download, DU_n7000_4.4.4_20141003-1715.v8.0-TESTBUILD,

Help me

I am newbie to this rom as i am currently using Arymod v8 TW rom. Can somebody help me in which kernel to be used? Which Gapps should be downloaded(cuz the links gives three types of GApps)? What is weekly builds? the main rom file name is v8 testbuild, so what this "testbuild" indicates? does this rom have to updated weekly bases? means is the updates coming out very frequently and i have to install full wipe again each time?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] Thot Ctrl:
There is already a guide on what you should flash to get on kitkat ROM

And you have to flash any one of the Gapps. Take your pick :rolleyes:

Test builds are for just that - testing. They can be buggy so i suggest you use the official version linked in the thread if you want to avoid unnecessary bugs.

And you can dirty flash these builds but I would suggest you to full wipe :good:

Official builds come out once a month generally. Others are nightly test builds
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] knedge:
Kindly read the first post. It answers all your queries.

WRT Gapps, if depends on whether you desire all the google bells and whistles (ram intensive) or small but essential package. Pls read the descriptions of the packages on the download page. Personally I prefer the lighter version.

Test build signifies exactly what the name suggests- it might be a little unstable but full wipe is not required in either case when moving from one version to the next. The developer would let us know if any installation or version would require a full wipe.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] osd_daedalus:
Some updates:

I flashed to 20141007 from 8.0 official and reverted to Holo theme pack... 3 days of intensive use and all went smooth and without any issue.

Then I put again the Cobalt theme pack (without applying Bellota font), I noticed some lag in screen transitions and while using keyboard, until I got another extreme slowdown/freeze which required me a hard reboot. I wasn't at home so I wasn't able to get logcat.

Still without enough proof, but I wish to focus attention on Theme Engine...

I have two questions for everyone who suffer freezes:

- which GApp package do you use?

- do you use a custom theme via Theme Engine?

Thank you :)

Changing topic, what about the battery loading animation? I mean the battery icon (which in DU seems a greyish rectangle with a micro percentage text within) you get when you plug in the phone to charge it, and your phone is powered off. Is there a way to change it?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] abzjji:
As far as gapps go i use pa_gapps-modular-micro. I use a different Theme than the default since 3 days (LessUgly 2.1 Theme). I pretty much have same issues as without it so I cant confirm that useing themes adds to instability. I get around 2 hot reboots a week as well as around 2 freezes a week mostly during texting in whatsapp. I use swiftkey keyboard.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] osd_daedalus:
While fighting the infinite battle...

Just when I was thinking to try a new keyboard to see if freezes/lag are caused by keyboard, I got a freeze while doing nothing... on lockscreen.

I plugged phone at PC and runned adb logcat. It started with "device not ready... waiting for device" but then logcat started. Then the phone unfrozen itself and returned to work.

Logcat attached. I had to compress it as the 2 MB size won't be accepted by forum limit of .txt filesize

.

Effectively there is something... about Java and Facebook? And also other things...

... btw, isn't scary a facebook library is called "libheartbleed.so"? :D

Unfortunately this logcat is not against latest testbuild, but on 20141007. Will update ASAP!

always about freezing while texting...

I retire my "accusations" on Theme Engine: I still got some freezes with 20141013, one while texting, the other one while doing... nothing :-/ And I was with Holo with AOSP keyboard...

But, just before reaching my PC and being able to get another logcat, the phone soft-rebooted itself...

Today I got another freeze just by launching Wifi Analyzer, but I wasn't at home... I retried later but I got no freeze this time.

No idea what can be, apart a particular app doing messings (according to my previous logcat,Facebook? Java? )... and no idea what to do but collecting logcats...

... and flashing up to latest testbuild! ;)

It cannot be Facebook or any other facebook related app.

How do I know this? I know because I have the same freezes and I am not using facebook at all. Not even a member :)

Edit: Not using g+ (already deleted) either. Only textign apps I am using are Viber, Whatsapp, Kakao, Hangout (though not that often). So if the porblem somehow is related with any text messaging app, it could be one of those maybe. If not, then maybe java related problem. Dunno.

I have thought to an app poorly coded which does syncing, that would give an explaination of why "randomly my phone freezes".

Random FCs have increased with this build and so have system freeze and reboots.

I guess the legacy device is finding it hard to keep up with development!

KK roms BTW were always susceptible to random FCs and reboots on Grand old Note.

Hmm... just dirty flashed...

Looks like all of apps which were moved in external SD card now are not recognized like SD is not recognized (in my case, formatted in exFAT).

Although, in Settings/Memory it is recognized, and accessible via file explorers such as ES, Root browser...

Already purged cache/dalvik.

Any confirmations about?

edit: on a side note, phone has become faster and smoother... I'm formatting the external SD again in Fat32.

Let's see...

result: neither in FAT32 apps on external SD are read. Looks like is not either possible to move an app to external SD (I can't see the option). On TitaniumBackup they appear as uninstalled and the option "move apps in the internal memory" now brings 0 as counter.
