Can anyone explain why my wallpaper all of a sudden changed? I'm still on v7 and haven't changed the wallpaper. So it was the black wallpaper with a red S. I've rebooted a few times and it hadn't changed. But I just rebooted and it is now the same wallpaper but instead of being a red S it's grey.

Why don't you rather take the card out, pop it into a card reader, copy the stuff to your pc? Format the card then in the card reader or in your phone, copy your stuff back and pop it back into the phone. Just seems safer.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] :
That is the default wallpaper for TRDS. When you enable TRDS it will change the wallpaper to that one after a while.

Rom is working smoothly on v8.i have to say stock slim kernel is pretty good. Pretty good battery life so far. No issues with memory card nor Blue tooth atm.

Is there any benefit on using the devil kernel with this ROM? I know for temasek was necessary to fix some sensor issues, but they seem to be fine with the stock kernel, so it's there any other good reason to use it? Not doing dual booting for now

ROM with S-pen support?

I am tempted to install this ROM but I've been out of the loop for about a year now. Will this ROM or any of the above mentioned "better alternative" support the S-pen?

Thanks!

Hey Will great ROM and so far no issues to report from my end. Just wondering if there is any chance that the KitKat non-intrusive call might be added in future updates? I personally do not like the incoming call dialog taking up the entire screen but the background notification only is not my liking either. Not sure if this is a vanilla Android feature or if somebody else from XDA created it for other custom roms. Anyway the ROM is great either way it's just something I was wondering about.

Here is an example of what I'm referring to,

I haven't solved my battery issues yet... I bought a new battery, did a super wipe and reinstalled V21.

I haven't got any other kernels or any xposed, but I still can't get above 6-8 hours on a fully charged battery.

Now I've tried to install SlimKat weekly 5718 and suddenly I get wickedly more battery life.

I used to get good battery life on earlier versions of this rom. I'll stay on SlimKat for now.

Dialer/cpntacts app

Hi

I love this rom but cant get over how ugly and poorly designed the dialer app is

can someone recommend a good replacement?

I really like Samsung stock one.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] jivin_hipcat:
To each their own for sure, but just out of curiosity, what about the dialer design is "poor" for you? For me, I think it's the best dialer I have seen on Android.

Sent by a typing monkey
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] ostap999:
I don't like that u can't only show contacts with numbers. Don't like the you can't dile or send SMS by swiping your finger. Integration into social network contacts is not well done.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] rob_z11:
I actually love the simplicity of Google stock dialer. But like someone mentioned that everyone is different. I don't do Facebook or any other social media, so I appreciate Facebook not importing their latest profile pics.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Senyaka:
You just have to look at the play store to find a TONNE of dialer options for you. Ready Dialer is a new one that has been released. Look them up on G+ to be part of the beta. It's really nice. But as mentioned, each person has there own taste, so I would simply advise you to look at the play store and find one that suits your tastes. That is best part of Android. You don't like something there is a very good chance there is another option for you to try out.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] ctruong17:
I use exDialer to get the swipe to call and swipe to send a text message. I also like how you can set up speed dialers. It also integrates quite well with Facebook if you wanna give it a go.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] ostap999:
Can original diler be removed? Does it have to change to regular dimer while on a call? What about incoming calls?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Senyaka:
No you can't. It will crash the system ui. I just tried. If you want to give it a shot, let me know how you go. When you get a call it will change back to regular dialer. Keep in mind all aosp Roms will have this. You mentioned you liked the stock Samsung one. If that's the case you might prefer touchwiz Roms.

[MENTION=5487769]Unknownkj[/MENTION] - location services isn't causing these issues on other roms. I'm currently on regular SlimKat and getting twice the battery life, with the same system settings.

It's a good idea, but disabling services just to make my phone last a day wasn't why I got my N2 ;)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Archeob:
I'm eagerly awainting the newest version, but I stumbled on something interesting today.

Apparently Chromecast can now be used to mirror the screen of a rooted Note 2, but a specific file has to be added by the rom maintainer. I checked and it isn't there on this rom.

audio.r_submix.default.so has to be added to /system/lib/hw

How is v23 testing going on?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] PRBajista:
If its in Senyaka's hands already its probably on its way soon. He is Will's tester since I believe he has 2 note 2's. I would like it soon too as I am going on vacation tomorrow. But I didn't want to ask for an ETA because that's a no no.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Senyaka:
It should be dropped shortly. Note 3 testing is still going on too and Will is currently on vacation too. But he's still working on Roms the crazy guy. But soon guys. So far everything seems to be working really smoothly. Viper audio and Acid Audio mods can be flashed and work great. Plasma and Agni work nicely with the Rom too. I think you will all like it.

In v23 can u update us on the low volume issue the only solution I know that works is hitting volndowm button while on call. It's bit frustrating hoping this is resolved soon in this wonderful rom.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Senyaka:
Tbh with you, I've never had a problem with volume. It could be because I flash viper along with the ROM I'm not sure. I've got 2 Note2's and haven't had volume issues like some here. I don't think Shaggy has had issues with it either. So honestly I don't know why it affects some and not others. Have you tried the normal SlimKat? See If that has volume issues for you. Since Will uses that as a base, unless they decide to fix it I don't think there is much he can do about it.

I run off now and then because things arent perfect. then I come back because things are even less perfect somewhere else. Unfortunately I found another imperfection this morning. When attempting to share a you tube video via hangouts. In the you tube app I hit share..brought up the hangouts choice and upong selecting the recipient the screen goes blank and I have to eventually kill the app. Has anyone experienced anything like this? I suspect it is because of my dirty dirty dirty flashing but... ok so yes I will tell you I was sharing a Hardwell video... look it up biotches and rock out! may as well throw Tiesto and Armin Van Burrin in the mix.

It should really only be when you are playing audio. Not all the time. As for wolfson, I don't really use it myself. But I also have the international model of the phone, so I can't really help you there my friend.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] mashuto:
So I have been having some issues lately. Basically, the phone is very sluggish and slow. I think this is the first release I have noticed this. Often times when typing or sending messages in hangouts, the key presses will be delayed, the messages will lag a few seconds before they send, the animations are choppy, things like that. In google maps, i went to navigate and the animation there was also quite choppy. In general animations and responsiveness of my phone just feel like they are worse than they have been before.

I do not know if this is ROM related, but I pretty much have been using Wills roms as my daily drivers for some time and rarely if ever switch. I just know that with this latest (and possibly some of the other recent ones) I have been noticing these slowdowns. I do not know if it is something I installed or did, or if its something with the rom.

Has anyone else experienced this? Or does anyone else know how I might be able to track why things are running so sluggishly?

I will plan on a complete clean wipe (including wiping internal memory) when I update (hopefully we will see v23 drop soon, but no rush of course!), but I really like wills roms and would rather not swtich if I dont have to, but the experience has been degraded to the point lately that I feel I might need to.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Senyaka:
For the keyboard Lag I have found that on any Slim based Rom I have ever tried. Not all keyboards display this though. But when using Stock keyboard or Miniuum, it lags up a fair bit after a while. Using the Oppo Swype keyboard or Swiftkey I have no issues. I have found though that if I dirty flash the Lag seems to come on quicker. A clean flash including wiping internals and things are good. Also, make sure you don't have a bunch of apps doing stuff in the background. I know, I know, this seems like a no brainer, but I use apps like Shortpaste, Link Bubble, Switchr, and these all run in the background taking up resources too. Thing is I see this lag in a fair few Roms now, but considering the age of our device assuming you got it at launch or close too when it was launched, this may also play a factor.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] mashuto:
Yea I get the keyboard lag, but its more than just that, everything seems to lag pretty badly. I even switched from swiftkey to google keyboard because it seems to be quicker. But really, everything just seems to chug along lately. I know the phone is getting a bit old, but I am just not sure if I did something to really slow it down or if this is maybe related to the rom.

As far as things running in the background, not really sure if there are to many things running, ACDisplay... but none of those others you listed. Any way to check background apps? Greenify? I usually try and keep it to maybe 4 or 5 background apps there, and they are usually system apps or HD widgets, things like that.

Either way, dont wanna start discussing other roms in here, might play around tonight.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Senyaka:
I would recommend a clean install then my friend. That might help solve some of your problems then. I can say though that V23 is pretty rock solid and I haven't run into any Lag issues yet. But I did do a totally clean install. As for active apps running I use better battery stats to see what is running in the background. Greenify does help a tonne, but there was one instance that a bit of my battery drain came from greenify running in the background. That only happened one time though and after a reboot it was all good after that. Oh another thing to keep any eye out on is anything that syncs with the cloud like dropbox, drive, mega, cloudgoo ect. They always run in the background and usually don't show in any running apps list.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] mashuto:
Thanks man, I have better battery stats installed, usually doesnt show much, I try to keep a pretty clean ship. Things are definitely worse lately than they have been, so maybe a few dirty installs has just gummed up the works so to speak. I did a semi clean install recently, although I cant remember if it was for this version or a few releases ago.

Honestly, been looking around and none of the other roms I see really appeal that much, guess I will hold off until v23 drops and just give myself a completely fresh install.
