put back the clean sweep or whatever

The first time I installed Alliance I keep getting random restarts and the bootanim was really starting to piss me of LOL

Anyway the point is that I had to create a fresh slot and then doe advanced whipe 3 times then factory reset 4 times and flash ROM twice followed by a factory reset before ever leaving SS

That did however do the trick every time after that...

With V5 I went through my ritual and the first 2 times I got the random rebooting issues SO

I did MJ5 start from scratch and with all the wiping I did get it to load...

Now according to your post: Is this the time I can get picky over the little stuff????

Tom

PS glad you did WELL in CONTROL SCHOOL

This is what I was talking about "the wipe clean script" is my friend!!!

Also, earlier in this post you mentioned "( a whole lot of) k last year" = that's a lot of k for white trash like me, should I be addressing you as "sir"

Seriously, for you to be helping all of us to get the best out of our phones says loads about your character (thank you for that by the way)

I like xposed as much as you like Kittkat so I would like to ask for some of those fetures in Alliance if that's OK?

Like the ability to edit carrier logos even where there were none before...

This may seem a little crazy but I really like having statements about loving my wife every where I go on my phone and related to that = I get a FC every time I try to use any of the wallpaper settings in Alliance...

One odd thing that I noticed is that I lose connection (or whatever) to Google voice search only on this rom so I can't always use Dolphin Sonar.

This last time I selected "Apex launcher" during the initial setup and it coughed again and again until I changed to TW

I do like my Apex launcher, Handcent messaging, Dolphin Browser and DW contacts (not cheap but really the best)

So to make a long story longer I would love as many of those apps to be friendly from the git-go if possible...

I did mention this is little stupid stuff right?

I really like the ChargeBar battery app but they want 10 bucks for something Alliance almost has included.

The ability to change the bar color per a given percent would be nice and could possibly be the most picky request that I could come up with!!!

Well maybe this is more petty: Things like the battery bar and toggle colors have to be activated in the Linked section and removed after reboot in order for the unlinked color choices to stick. I know, how do I survive in a world with so many enormous problems LOL

Anyway its coming up on 25 years being married to the same person so I will be interested in the lovey dovey wallpapers and text being able to populate my device...

They only let me give 8 thanks a day and I have not received my first paycheck on my new job so you will just have to trust me that I really appreciate you guys!!!

Tom
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Goldie:
You dont have to activate or remove anything in linked after reboot. If you want them linked to a single color leave them checked...if you want them separate then leave them unchecked. All settings persist through a reboot
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] LuckyColdJohnson:
Hello thread. Rom is awesome. Are there any battery saving mods or tweaks in this great ROM? Thanks in advance
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] misterwright:
Hi Goldie

I selected a color for my battery bar (FF0F00FF) medium blue in the unlinked section and after a number of reboots the bar was still a light blue

I was able to pick a color for the bar in the unlinked section and I know I had not checked it in the linked section but I went in to verified that was the case anyway...

And sure enough it was not checked in the linked section but when I changed the Linked Theme Color the battery bar would change to the color of the selected theme.

I thought one of the other checked items may be causing this so I unchecked everything in the lined section and after rebooting the battery bar stilled mirrored the selected Linked Theme Color even though nothing was checked in the linked section!?!

SO in the interest of science (or because I didn't know what else to try) I went in and checked the battery bar color in the linked section and did a reboot

After that I went in and unchecked battery bar in the linked section and did another reboot and that was the first time in at least a dozen reboots that my battery bar was the color I selected in the unlinked section.

Weird right? Wait it gets better

Because I was having problems with SOME of the toggle colors, I tried the same procedure with the linked section toggle colors and low and behold after selecting - rebooting - deselecting - rebooting again = All of my unlinked toggle colors appeared right before my eyes.

I may have mentioned that I was IT Director at Konica when Minolta bought them out but, with all the training and experience that went along with that, I have absolutely no idea that would explain why I was experience this behavior.

I wonder if I am the only one who experienced this issue and if I am, then maybe it's time for me to break out my old rotary phone LOL

Tom
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] TheDriller:
If you're having issues with the toggle colors or something like that, you don't need to reboot. There's an option in the custom settings to restart systemui. Try that first.

Edit: and I am sorry I am still reading your first post... I don't think there is enough room on the internet for me to respond. Lmao
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Zugshad:
Ok,

So for an update with that wakelock issue, I had GPS and the location services on all morning and it has not appeared at all so far. Phone is sleeping as normal and not getting the pestering ipc WL.

on a side note, i am interested in NOT usinig hangouts. is it possible to just freeze that (or even uninstall)... right now testing out freezing it and i used the messaging to send a text to wife, but so far have not received one back (we have been chating back and forth and told her to send a reply).. so dunno if that is cause the issue or not.. I saw someone post about handcents... just not sure what would be the best options to use with this lovely rom that doesn't run into problems.

thanks

edit: k so texts are coming through with hangouts frozen.. so guess should be ok ;)
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] TheDriller:
You can safely uninstall hangouts... But if I may ask did you try to remove anything else in this ROM before this issue?
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] hipporun:
Does anyone know how to get rid of the quick settings in the notification bar? I use a app that looks better and I just want to get rid of the stock ones
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] TheDriller:
Custom settings>status bar and toggles>toggle options>toggle position

I should tell you that there is about 5 different styles of toggles and I am gonna and more in the next update
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] misterwright:
A man of few words

You will like this = when using xposed (long time ago in a yada yada) it was required that I restart the UI for any changes to take effect and that is what happened, but with Alliance witchcraft even though I do use the system UI restart but usually I see the changes before I get to that screen.

And trying not to be the biggest noob on the block, I do a reboot if I don't get the expected results from a system UI restart with any ROM or modules.

However (in an attempt to top the "yes" answer you received when you asked x61tab a multiple choice question about what slot was being used) I will tell you that I in-fact did not try the UI restart, I just went straight for the throat with a reboot.

But either way I was perplexed how things came together on those "linked / unlinked" issues

if you really want to LYAO I will tell you that it takes me forever to type one sentence so the internet filling literature that I posted took all night to type LOAO at myself...

I have some other really big (or little) things I was going to address but I need to wait for the smoke from my typing fingers dissipates

Did you see my references to xposed being able to put custom text on either side of the clock on the status bar and wallpaper in the notification pull down and other gadget like customization tools?

Oh and I said congratulations to you for doing WELL in CONTROL SCHOOL "is this thing on?"

Tom
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] TheDriller:
Dude you are litterally putting me in tears I'm laughing so hard. I haven't even had coffee yet!

So you can put custom text on the notification drag bar. Its in Custom Settings>Status Bar and Toggles>Notification Panel

I do not however have the custom text in status bar... Yet.

I'm an unemployed comedian

I'm an unemployed comedian and after you see some of my humor you will understand the unemployed part!

Can we get the option to change the font size in that pull down handle?

I really want to customize my phone with "I love my wife" stuff just incase she goes into my phone = I mean because I really love her!

It's just hard to understand where she's coming from some times so I bought her a mood ring to see if that would help...

And it works pretty good, when she's in a good mood it turns blue and...

When she's in a bad mood it leaves a red mark on my forehead (ta dum)

Anyway I really do want those geekie type modification abilities like xposed has, without all the FCs

You know what I mean!!!

One of these days I will tell you what I have to rub on my lock screen to get my phone to unlock (hint she has blond hair)(and is dressed)

I need to write down things I notice while doing this all encompassing testing of your ROM because you have spoiled me, I can't use any other ROM now!!!

Did you restore those apps(es file and fb) from TiBu? Just wondering because it can cause a lot of apps to fc.

[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] K-alz:
Yes i definitely did. LOL

Man please don't tell me that i can't do that. So much work. Plus I've paid for that damn TB thing. It can't be just useless. I'm going to have to restart everything from scratch, don't I?
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Bubba:
TiBu does not play nice with Note 3 for some reason. Had the same issue my first flash. What I'm doing is extracting all the apk that I use into a folder in the external. Then (if all goes well) making a flash zip to install them all fresh. Trying to also find apps with built in back up and restore.

Notice I was nice enough to not tell you that you can't. :D

[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] K-alz:
Well, you're going to have to be even nicer and tell me how you are extracting those apps and from where? Lol
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] caspersfi:
K-Alzwayed you could try the TB Restore fix app. It's free at the Play Store.

Worth a shot.

[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] K-alz:
I will download that and try it. Even though I've just made a new slot and wiped it clean and flashed the ROM all over. And then didn't even download anything from play store. Not a single app. Not even titanium. Fresh out of the box. Just attempted to sign in with my email then I got settings FC. I'm the FC master. Lmao
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] caspersfi:
I'm finally about to make a backup and flash. I'll report back in a few.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Bubba:
Using an app from the playstore called extract apk.

I tried that and it didn't seem to solve any of my fc issues.

[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] caspersfi:
Ok well just restored my apps thru TB. Then tried out Nova Launcher, had an immediate FC. Ran the TB Restore fix app and now Nova works.

Maybe this app is a hit and miss fix. So far for me it's all good. : )
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] TheDriller:
I see you all are having the email error I have. Im running it down right now, but in your app drawer is an app called Push Mail. Been using it for a couple of years and I love it. Absolutely far and above my favorite email app. All your in boxes in one place. It syncs from a server in Israel (Emoze is an Israeli company) so you might get a notification from Google but I love it.

[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] caspersfi:
Well RErick it's been a little bit of a bumpy ride here starting out but I think things are starting to settle in. I had a number a soft reboots. A couple from trying to sign into Chrome and another from changing sound settings in Hangouts.

Like I said tho, I'm going to give it some time and let things settle. What really burns my a÷s(not ROM related) is SafeStrap wiping out my internal storage again. I'm gonna have to do a little research on this. I know I've seen someone speak of it somewhere.

Anyway about to dig into some customization settings and do some more testing. If my soft boots persist I'll grab some logs If you wouldn't mind checking them out.

Thanks for the ROM bro.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] TheDriller:
Yes PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE get logs... Filter for /E please. I need to get these squashed! :crying: I haven't been able to reproduce a lot of these. I did get the volume up with headphones plugged in squashed. I think I just got ahead of myself and put too many things in. I'm so sorry.

Hey bubba,

Where on earth did you get that picture of my wife on your phone?

That may explain her responce when I said "hey 25 year anniversary is a mile stone, I want to spend a lot of money, what would you like/"

When she said "a divorce", I replied "I don't want to spend THAT MUCH money"

I will grab a dumpstate the next time I try to use wallpaper in the Allience custom Settings...

Thanks dude...

I love my wife as well .. but literally everywhere you go on my phone haz a different gorgeous woman .. none of them are her. I did however give her the spot in contacts by her name.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] TheDriller:
Please do. I think i might already know whats going on.

open a file explorer and see if there is a folder on your internal SD Card named Alliance. If there is, please delete it and then open the Alliance Manager app. It will rebuild the folder.

If that folder isnt there, please open the alliance manager app, and it will create it. This is where wallpapers/backups/other things rom related are stored.

Bubba. Don't egg him on.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Zugshad:
Thanks... As for the "issue" which one are you refering to? Are you refering to that wakelock? I have not uninstalled anything from the rom. I did recently go in and freeze the samsung push and just now did hangouts.

if you are refering to the wakelock, i was just testing it as I was not having it and then someone posted about it and I remembered it being a GPS issue. SO, I turned off my location services for the apps and turned GPS off and that is when the ipc wakelock came up. my phone was on like 14hrs and only slept 2 or 3 of that. the rest it was awake due to that wakelock. so, turned them back on and it went away. havent had the wakelock at all today. with the lock, i was at 6%+ drain... now back down to like 1.2%..

is that what you were talking about?

Now, 1 other thing i have ran into.. i can't tell if it is only when playing a game.. but some times ill hit my home button cause a text came in and my backgroup will be completely black and the notifcation bar is not there and will not come down.. i ahve to hit the power button to lock the phone and let it sit a sec then turn it back on and all is well.. so not sure if it is a rom thing or possibly just something from the video maybe getting to hot or somethng from playing the game for a bit.. any others have something like this? next time it occurs ill try and screenshot it... and possibly upload the dump.. however, not sure the dump will do anythign as there is not FC or message the pops up.. it jus acts "slow" to go back the the homescreen correctly..

Sorry, sir. Didn't mean to say it was. Just something to mention for reference.

Psst. I can't remove it. It so cool. ;)

And by that you mean, delete the "Alliance" folder then open up the alliance manager? Just did that. It didn't work.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] LfnsR:
Hi all. New to this ROM. I have downloaded twice, checked the MD5 and it is good, but I am still getting random reboots every couple minutes. I have deleted the ROM slot and created a new one twice, have done multiple wipes - both factory and advanced on the new slot - and have installed the ROM multiple times before rebooting the system to get into the ROM. Still no luck with fixing the random reboots I am getting. I can't even begin to set up the ROM as it roboots too often.

Any help on how to fix is appreciated. Not sure what the issue is. BTW...I am currently running X-Note 7.0 in the Stock slot. Thanks in advance as I am looking forward to checking this ROM out.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Bubba:
wasn't meant rude .. sorry if it came off that way. Maybe try delete that folder again (Or is it there) then long press it and uninstall it. Extract the apk from the rom and re install it.

Wonder if he has leftover kitkat stuff. There are file access issues with kitkat
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] misterwright:
practice makes perfect

So I don't know if there are any left over kitkat problems, but could you maybe try something again for me?

This is gonna require a reflash, I know. I'm sorry but I just have to rule out a couple of theories. If the ROM you downloaded has a good MD5 sum from what's posted on the download section, please backup whatever you need to, but app only if possible.

Next boot into safe strap and select the mount button and then choose /system. Back out of it and then choose advanced and then file manager.

next scroll down to SD card and choose it. Next find the Alliance folder. Long press on it and select delete.

Back out to the main screen and choose wipe.

Go ahead and perform the factory reset. Once done go back to wipe screen.

Then choose a manual wipe and select /system, /dalvik, and /cache. Wipe those.

Now please flash the ROM 2 times. Once done reboot into the ROM. Let it sit for a couple of minutes and then continue with the setup. Once in the ROM immediately go into Alliance Manager. Select Choose Theme and pick the Driller theme. That one has some stuff for wallpapers in it. Next after the theme applies, reboot the phone and once booted let it sit for a couple of more minutes. Now try to choose a wallpaper for the notification panel. I should say that there is a weird bug where they don't apply correctly unless the notification panel background is first set to white with NO transparency (full opaque). Do that first before trying to select a wallpaper. If it FC or reboots there should be a dumpstate in /data/log.

I have a feeling that there might be some permissions errors from kitkat. Its just a theory but not being able to see you /data/log folder is what's giving me this idea. Plus the other dumpstate you sent had some weird stuff in it about not being able to write a dumpstate. Very strange.[/QUOTE]

I created a new slot and advanced flash 6 times and factory reset 6 times and flashed the rom did a factory reset and flashed the rom 2 more times and finally did a factory reset just before leaving SS

\

I waited 6 minutes after the first setup screen showed up and when I started the setup I got 2 reboots before I finished the setup so now I am going to do your instructions to the tee

First question... After the second flash of the rom should I do another factory refresh before leaving SS ???

Thanks..
