[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] DLM2583:
First off I want thank ykkfive for making this port I've been asking for a note 3 port for a long time because I have no idea what goes into making a port although I appreciate it... One thing that would make this ROM flawless would be the ability tobfix the DPI on the size of the icons I haven't found much wrong with the ROM... Great speed and I love the air view works great.. For reason my browser isn't syncing my bookmarks but its not a deal breaker
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] ykkfive:
hi DLM2583

thank you

and, what do u mean by "the ability to fix the DPI on the size of the icons"? i don get it really... sorry about my poor english

for the browser bookmark sync problem, i knew it and for some reasons it produces FC on every boot/sync so i disabled it for now. i will fix it later

thanks for your feedbacks again
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] DLM2583:
Yes for the DPI size of Icons I just used nova launcher and it does the job I also have the Google launcher which makes the icons huge really to big but nova laughed is fine for the sync no big deal I am using chrome in the mean time and works fine thanks again
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] ykkfive:
so u want smaller icons? am i correct?
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] DLM2583:
No I would make them a bit larger

First screen is stock

Second is nova

Third is Google launcher
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] ykkfive:
ok, got it

since i added more cells to the home screen so the size of each cell will be smaller in size, and i just don want to make the icons too close to each other

anyway, in my mind, all these things like number of icons, width and height etc should be customized by the users. this is what i want in fact. i planned to add this as a feature but no schedule yet.

sorry about that and i hope more customizations can be added later

thank you
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] DLM2583:
Your awesome Bro thanks again
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] ykkfive:
u r welcome man

btw, why don you put your note8 in your signature as well? :laugh:
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] DLM2583:
Thanks for the reminder #done
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] rezadue:
Hi,

In case you want feedback on additional items not working:

- When in settings, if you try to change font, settings crashes.

FYI only.:good:
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] ykkfive:
looks much much better now :p

btw, this is my 1st tablet too, except the sony experia tablet z i played for just a few days and sold for this note8

wow, good findings!!! i will never ever find this by my self coz i don use it

thanks a lot and it will be fixed soon, if possible
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] Dai323:
Im super interested! Thank you man! Let me know if you need any testers. Ive done quite a lot of beta besting at XDA over the years.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] DLM2583:
So I noticed a couple games aren't compatible with this ROM 8 ball pool candy crush saga angry birds... But there's a plus kijiji app now works because the play store thinks my tablet is a phone lol
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] ykkfive:
ok, will do it tonite

so i can assume u r able to handle problems yourself and get the log for me?

well, if they require magnetic sensor for detecting movements then they wont work. if they only check for phone/tablet device then it can be altered. it is assumed this is a tablet by default (to a certain extent atm)
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] coloxim:
Any idea jump to kitkat.?

Inviato dal mio Nexus 4 utilizzando Tapatalk
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] ykkfive:
that's a good choice

not fully implemented in this beta I believe
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] rezadue:
Hey YKK,

You may have received some or all of these and probably know about them, but so far here is my list:

- During install some windows had white text on white background making it impossible to read. Examples are: Timezone setting window, terms and agreements window

- S Note keeps freezing on me at the stage where you pick the cover style

- Samsung weather widget is missing from the list of widgets

- S planner widget does not size properly and spans only part of the screen. It looks cut off

- Youtube does not seem to play anything just a black screen with rotating circle

If I find more I will be sure to report back.

Cheers

Great ROM but had to switch

I love this ROM and was running it for a day or tow but had to switch because I couldn't download some apps and / or updates from the Play Store. when that';s fixed, I'm all in!
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] @BB:
I posted before about the Play Store issues but wanted to comment on the keyboard on this ROM. It's awesome! Can you make a flashable ZIP for that by itself? I had to switch back to my previous ROM until the Play Store download issue is fixed but would love to have that KB. Overall, great work!! ... I really like this ROM but need to be able to install and update apps.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] ykkfive:
yes, the text color in agreement etc is a known problem but minor, and calendar widgets have layouts problems.

for youtube and snote,, did u wipe before install? did u restore backup data from titanium?

one member here thouhgt he has wiped the partitions before and goggle play didint work and the problem solved after he made a wipe again. but since u could see the agreement text color problem, i bet u have wiped the data already, right?

same as above

i will need to check if other changes to framework files are needed, cant remember now. if it does require other changes then it may not be possible to made a separate zip

btw, i will upload a script later which will get the log files i need as to address those problems mentioned above. u guys can help by send ing me the logs after running the script. details later
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] rezadue:
To answer your questions:

- Yes, I did a full wipe and installed you 4.4.x ROM from scratch

- No TiBu backups to restore from. Fresh install.

Cheers,
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] ykkfive:
n5110? which bootloader? 4.4.2?
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] rezadue:
N5110

4.4.2 Boot loader. Coming over from CivZ 4.4.2 ROM. Full wipe between installs using latest PhilZ.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] ykkfive:
could be the bootloader problem. I will upload a script to get the logs later, see if the logs help to find out the problem
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] mcpdigital:
Ykkfive, thanks again for the Rom, it is working fine after a dirty install.

My steps were:

1-Wipe Cache and Dalvik

2-Nandroid backup

3-Format /system

4-Install yNote

5-Reboot and wait

This is not recommended by the dev. but I always do that before doing a full wipe

There are 300+ apps installed and for testing purposes sometimes I recover the /data from the nandroid backup after a full-wipe.

Always works with Note 8 and Note 2.

If everything goes bad I can restore or retry installing, but if its fine I will keep it like that.

Thanks to the pro devs we can enjoy a Note 8 with Note 3 features and they are much better than the ones for Note 8.

Important things that were fixed in this version:

- Capacitive buttons now respond to the s-pen

- Camera working fine

- Wifi working with old bootloader MG2

- Light sensor working, no more 0 lux bug

Great work !

[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] ykkfive:
confused....

isnt the same way as suggested? so how did u install it last time?

actually I use backup files also but for safety purposes I wont restore those apps like google account, and I will export all contacts, sms before installing so that I can add them back later without conflicts
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] mcpdigital:
Im just sharing my experience, showing that a dirty flash did work. I did not format data, only system. No wipes over ynote 4.3 and erything fine.

Explaining well that this is not the way one should do, based on your instructions,.

Installed once only. Mentioned other options but didnot need it.

Your rom is great.

MCP
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] ykkfive:
as long as you know how/what to do in case of boot loops after 1st install, thats fine. since usually incorrect db versions cause boot loops
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] tooandrew:
hey man, i haven't been on here much, but as for clearing the cache on youtube, yes. i did that i also un-installed youtube and re-installed it as a user app from the play store. it just doesn't work man. only this time, after another full wipe and reinstall, the youtube app locks up the whole device for a minute then fc's. the youtube player app gives me audio, but i get an error 'cannot play video', which stops the audio when i touch ok, and also fc's shortly after that. chrome gives me audio but no video, then locks up the tablet for a bit then fc's.

this is for EVERY youtube video in every app. so, this must be a codec issue or something.

supersu fc'd when i first opened it, but after an update from the play store, it works again.

edit: upon further investigation, it cannot play most saved videos through the video player or mx player (i played some of these files with mx player previously on civato's rom).
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] cbrinnny:
I'm experiencing the same you tube problems like everybody else. I have cleared the cache, uninstalled updates, turn it off and on with no luck.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] ykkfive:
both with 4.4 bootloader?
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] tooandrew:
yes, i am running the 4.4 bootloader
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] cbrinnny:
yes, 4.4 bootloader. I also tried Netflix and crackle and none play the video [emoji54]
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] tooandrew:
even most saved videos don't work on mine, though i got an .mp4 to play (the only video i got playing at all)

some of the other files were .mp4 too but they didnt work
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] cbrinnny:
That's a real bummer, hopefully we get a fix for that. Just tried Google Play Movies and doesn't work either.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] tooandrew:
i'm sure ykkfive will take care of it - this is a beta, after all.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] ykkfive:
i am not sure if i can fix this problem since i don have 4.4 bootloader installed, all i can say is i will try to fix it if possible as this is not targeted for 4.4 bootloader

attached is a debug script. extract it to init.d and reboot your tablet. the script will starts automatically and will run for 300 sec

so during the 300 sec, pls start youtube/movie/google play or whatever u had problems before

after that (+1min) pls provide me the log files. it is suggested to upload to your own online storage and then pm me the link

thanks

edit sorry, forget to say, the files will be stored in the /cache/log/ folder
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] tooandrew:
okay.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] ykkfive:
uploaded, pls refer to the previous post
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] cbrinnny:
where is the exact location of init. d ? is it under root? I saw a init file but didn't see init. d

NVm, found it under /etc

---------- Post added at 04:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:29 PM ----------

I'm trying to install root explorer so i can move some files around and am getting an error saying Couldn't install on USB storage or SD card. What does that mean to you? :confused:
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] mcpdigital:
// ykkfive, could you please make a version with selinux permissive. Some problems here due to lack of selinux, some set_perm errors

Is there another way to enable selinux, like build.prop...//

Edited. Just forget it the problem is related to KK internal SD Card bug. The applications that use the int card to store data fail to install with the couldn´t write to USB or SD Card.I could not fix it even by using many tools, including Dr. Ketan.

Starting all over from 4.3.

Thanks

MCP
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] tooandrew:
i extracted the script to init d, the first time when it booted up it froze on the lock screen, the second time after the video crashed the screen turned off and refused to turn back on, after the third reboot, the whole thing froze when i tried to copy the ksmg file from cache/log to extsd. still working on it.

EDIT: sent you a zip with everything in my cache/log folder after a fresh install with no titanium backups restored, and your script in init d folder

EDIT 2: downloaded a tilt based game from the play store because my screen rotation has been acting wierd, regardless of ROM, got the same 'couldn't install on USB storage or sd card' error as the other gentleman got for es file explorer, though es file explorer installed fine for me.

EDIT 3: cbrinnny, unmount your sd card, install the app from the play store (it will work unmounted), then remount it.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] 10amla:
Unmounting the SD-card didn't work for me. The problem shows up when installing paid apps from the Play Store.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] cbrinnny:
Unmounting card didn't work for me, tried to install Rom Toolbox Pro and Root Explorer with no luck. Had such a hard time trying to get the log for ykk but couldn't do it, too many issues to overcome.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] tooandrew:
Try installing es file explorer, turn on root explorer, mount system as rw, and extract the zip to etc/init d

I didn't know what was what so I just did all of this on a fresh install and zipped everything in cache/log into an archive, uploaded to drop box and pm'd a link. I don't really use any paid apps except titanium, which, for the sake of testing, I didn't install. If you get that error from free apps, at least, unmounting sd card should work. If you must have the paid apps, maybe push the apk from your phone via Bluetooth .

Edit: without loyal testers ykkfive may never get this fully functional for us, jump through those hoops so we don't have to later
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] 10amla:
If you have another device, install root explorer on that device and copy the apk off it and put it on the sd-card. Install from there. That's how I installed FX file manager+. The free FX version and root might help with capturing a log. For some odd reason I don't have a init.d folder in /etc on my Note.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] tooandrew:
I don't know if this rom is compatible with civato's spherekat 3.8, but that is a 4.4.2 touchwiz kernel for the 5110, with selinux enabled and set to permissive. I am likely going to sleep here shortly, but either later tonight or tomorrow morning, I will test Ynote rom with spherekat kernel and report my findings

EDIT: unfortunately, when i try to flash spherekat kernel immediately after a fresh install, i get an error about set_perm failing or something. i will allow it to boot fully, then reboot to recovery and try to flash the kernel then update.

EDIT2: set_perm: some changes failed (status 7) on both spherekat 3.1 and 3.8 both before and after first boot

(one is selinux enforced and one is selinux permissive) looks like there is no out of the box solution - somebody is going to have to get their code on.

---------- Post added at 06:17 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:16 AM ----------

how long have you had Ynote beta running? I have the init.d folder after a fresh install
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] 10amla:
About a week, I may try a fresh clean install.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] tooandrew:
i've been switching between ynote and civato's rom, just to provide testing services to ykkfive. i would love note 3 features, but despite being pretty stable, it has some game breaking bugs at the moment, at least for me on the 4.4.2 bootloader. hence why i am here.

also, to ykkfive, as a side note, i think i mentioned that supersu fc's until you update it in the play store, not sure if i mentioned that on a fresh install, the play store will do nothing until the tablet seemingly randomly decides to download samsung apps. once samsung apps is fully downloaded and installed, then other things start to install/update properly, minus the 'unable to install to usb storage or sdcard' error that i and a couple other people have experienced. personally, unmounting the sdcard then installing solves that issue for me, but it doesn't seem to help the others.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] 10amla:
I've stuck with this ROM even with the bugs. The only one that has really been a problem is the Play Store installation problems on paid apps, I rarely use YouTube. I like the note 3 style interface since I have a Note3. I can use the Note8 as a larger format device as well as a testbed for my Note3.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] tooandrew:
for me, no video at all works, and i watch a lot of video on my note. so i can't make it my daily driver until that is resolved.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] ykkfive:
ok I will take a look later tonite.thanks

yes, unmount sdcard wont work for pay apps and those require asec
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] ykkfive:
not compatible.

yes su will fc but still works unless u click on the icon. I will update those apps later
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] ykkfive:
there should be no problem with the sdcard read write. which app causes problems? you may also use the script to get the logs for me
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] mcpdigital:
All tge apps than need to write to internal sd card. Some icon packages and games. Remember that it was a dirty install so the apps were there and workind with the kk ynotr, but as soon an upgrade is available it cannot update. Remove the apps and tryid to install again and it could't due to couldnt write to usb or sdtorage.

Thanks
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] ykkfive:
ok, found it. it's a same old problem but i've forgot how i fixed it before

also, the selinux in 4.3 is not the same as 4.4, in 4.4 there is no 'fake permissive' anymore, ie it will reject all in 4.4, unlike in 4.3 'permissive' means ' will be logged but let it go'

ok, fixed

btw, it will be easier/better for u to send me the log rather than simulating your environment on my phone since the contents/settings, etc are different
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] cbrinnny:
so it would have been better staying on 4.3 boot loader I guess? is there a way to flash 4.3 boot loader? I'm not worried about Knox been tripped
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] ykkfive:
sorry, no way back

btw. in note8, it should be 4.2.2/4.1.2

btw, u wanna test if the google play problem get fixed with kk boatloader?
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] mcpdigital:
Last time I remember you went back to Selinux permissive. Thats why I mentioned in the first post, even though I was not sure, but I remembered something like that between the many ROMs I install in my devices.

Thanks for taking your time and hope is easy. I already miss the Keyboard of the KK S5.

MCP
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] tooandrew:
I don't know about that but I think that you cannot downgrade after you have upgraded to the Kit Kat bootloader . I think that I should have waited until that came but I had no way of knowing that there would be a way to run kitkat with out the KitKat bootloader.

As a side note, usb peripherals and USB host are working great.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] cbrinnny:
sure, I can test it . yeah, I meant 4.2.2 boot loader.

---------- Post added at 02:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:00 PM ----------

Yeah, i saw in another thread that you could run kitkat rom in jellybean bootloader but some of us jumped the gun too quick and upgraded to 4.4. I also saw a synapse app where you could change the selinux from enforced to permissive, i guess it depends on the kind of kernel you are using.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] ykkfive:
u mean.. on ynote kk?
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] tooandrew:
:angel:

Yes on ynote kk . I will be your loyal kitkat bootloader tester.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] ykkfive:
ok, google play problem fixed (including those with 4.4 bootloader)

will be included in the next patch later today / tomorrow
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] ykkfive:
ok, i see

thanks a lot, i couldnt test them all
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] jazzespresso:
hey, ykkfive

touchwiz home launcher you included in your ROM, what screen DPI it uses...I gave a try to use on Note 8, it worked, but it is quite blown up...wondering if I somehow play its DPI with app-setting xpose..
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] tooandrew:
If there is anything else I can do, just let me know
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] ykkfive:
default dpi

sure. the coming patch includes several changes and added functions, but i re-did some of them due to my harddisk failure before. so there're chances that functions working in the previous version may become problematic. however i believe most of them are working properly as before
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] mcpdigital:
If you need I can test. Old bootloader MG2 and yNote KK.

[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] rezadue:
This may have been requested already YKK, but I would love to see the following feature:

On my Galaxy S4 when I hover my finger over a day in the stock calendar widget, a pop up appears showing details of my appointments. The same sort of thing happens in the mail app. I have tried both my finger, and the stylus and the same function does not seem to be active in this ROM.

Would it be possible to enable this feature?

Thanks
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] ykkfive:
ok, thanks

let me check, it is one of the many apps that i don normally use

btw, how can u hover with your finger???
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] androidmonsta:
It's due to the sensors on S4. Air hover should work with SPEN by default.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] ykkfive:
hmm, wanna tell you guys that the whole ynote rom kk beta will be revamped in order to make it more compatible to s5 and note3 features. it is because the current version is lacking some of the core components and needs to be modded heavily as to achieve the same results, and thus increases the chances of causing problems

this is a tough decision but it definitely is a good choice to pave the way for future in terms of functionality and ease for maintenance. otherwise it will become more and more complicated to add new features if the revamp is to be done at a later time since much more changes will be involved and these changes can affect all existing functions, which may end up with non-working functions which have been running perfectly before

I am sorry about this sudden change in ynote especially I have publicly announced the fix for google play problems couple of days ago. I do understand it hurts and it is frustrated that people are expecting a fix soon but in turn get disappointed. however, I am sure it is beneficial in the mid to long run

hope that you guys will understand the reasons behind and the importance for this revamp

there is no eta but I, optimistically, expect the whole process will be finished in a few days

thank you
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] ykkfive:
oh yes. I have forgot s4 has a special sensor for hovering. sorry
