Ahh the OBB files aren't the same as the data. If you loose them, the game or what ever app will ask you download them again and if it's a 3 gig game like NOVA 3, that is just painful. That is really the only folder you should keep apart from your downloads and pics. As for APN's you shouldn't lose them at all. Especially if you are coming from a previous build. Just to be safe, try to get the latest modem for your carrier. There is a modem thread in the International forums that should sort you out. If you find you have no apn's (which you should because it shouldn't change), then flash the Modem and you will be all set. ;)

Here is an APN backup and restore app that I've used in the past and works fine.

She's pretty impressed as I am.. and she has yet to find a bug. Great job with this Rom!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] belveder69:
I saw the battery arc recently on a rom I was trying, very nice effect :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] eksoccer99:
Try this. Add a custom tile. On that custom tile. Setup that tile. You can do 1-5 icons/actions. Example, Pick #1 and select slim actions in pop-up menu. Scroll down an you'll see, ring/vibrate, ring/vibrate/silent, ring/silent. I chose ring/vibrate. Save/back out of settings. Pull down notifications, quick tiles and you'll see ring/vibrate. You can add as many custom tiles using actions, to show separately.

pretty much the same. W03 has quite a few extra tweaks in build.prop and init.d (and small changes / extra apps under the hood) which slimkat doesn't have.

Whats are the new additions or changes in the new kernel?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Rainman26:
One issue that I've encountered is that the touchkeys never goes off and the backlight timeout si greyed out. I tried wiping, clean flash but now luck. Also flashed a custom kernel to test it out but it did not also work. Though there was a fix to fix the backlight issue, I'll still wait for the fix to get into this rom. Sorry about being OC in this manner. With that said, I flashed back to v14 since it is the most stable version for me. Haha. Hoping to get theme engine in the next versions.

Not so sure yet but battery life definitely improved. Much snappier too.

Just wanted to check in. Loving the features and performance of this ROM so far.

However, I do appear to have some major battery drain. Specifically wlan_rx_wake that is pretty much preventing my phone from going into deep sleep. I have done some quick searching and everything I saw seems to indicate it would be something with my wireless network sending too many broadcasts keeping my phone awake. However, I have never gotten this wakelock this badly before, not even a couple days ago while on a different rom, right before switching over.

If anyone has some insight into this or what I might be able to do, please let me know as my phone was not even able to charge back up to full last night and I am worried that my battery wont last the day like this.

First of all, big thanks again. As someone posted previously, it's the first time I run a ROM that has no bugs from the beginning, it's all so smooth, just brilliant.!

Now, a few things I would like you or anyone else to help me out:

1. How to change settings of the lockscreen clock/widget? I would like to change weather to Celsius and display calendar events.

2. On temasek, If I pull the screen down on the left, I would have notifications, If I pulled on the right, I would have the quick menu. Here I only have notifications. Any way to change?

For now, that was the only things I could notice.

Btw, Bluetooth working with no bugs for me, not even "hiccups". I know a few of you are actually waiting for this info, to jump on this ROM, So come on! ;)

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] kaibosh99:
Boeffla is the best in my opinion, I *believe* that it works with the 'stock' kernel, I use Devil and always use Boeffla. If you try it, set it to about 61 on the speaker amp and then don't turn your sound above about %85. I've tried all the hacks, and this one is the best bang for the buck. Search for the .apk here on the forums. Some people also use Viper, and there is hack built into the DK as well.

This kind of thing happens if you install a rom meant for a different model of phone. What is your *exact* model of Note 2?

I am on a Telus Note 2, so technically it is an I317M, which is *almost* identical to an international N7105. Even though they have the same guts overall, and same modem band usage, I absolutely must use the native modem files for my phone. If I run the Rogers updated Modem drivers, my phone works awesome, and in fact it has WAY better reception in 'holes' in the cell net around here, BUT... I cannot under any circumstances receive MMS messages. Yes, I can still send them, and yes my APN settings are identical in every way, but... There is sorcery afoot when it comes to that stuff, and I went nuts trying to make my phone work with those superior Rogers drivers. Sadly, I am still on the original (over 2 years old) Telus drivers as a result.

I've never changed my radio. It has the same modem and bootloader that shipped with 4.1.1 on launch. And I use the t0lte ROMs, kernels, mods, etc. Even stuff from the t889 and i605 with no issues. But again, I'm with Rogers.
