Hello,

As I just switched back to android recently, I need a bit of clarification, since my memory is playing tricks on me.

There are 2 zips (cm-11-20141021-UNOFFICIAL-temasek-hlte-V152.zip and the update.zip), do I have to flash them both?

Another question, can I flash this if I don't have a SD? In case I can, in which folder should I place them for the CWM to see them?

Thank you!:good:
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] shjane:
Did you do a full clean install (factory reset /dalvik /cache) or dirty flash?

---------- Post added at 02:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:18 PM ----------

Welcome,

Yes the "update.zip" is just an update ontop of the 152.zip. FIRST flash 152.zip file then the update.zip.

You can place both .zip files on any folder on your phone and locate it in CWM when flashing.

Also.. do you use any 3rd party app to play any music through? If not, I would suggest go to Settings>Apps>ALL>DSP Manager and clear data.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] asusgarb:
In OP there are suggested setting to apply on kernel with trickster. those settings are already on inside the kernel, because if it's so i won't install anything (trickster or similar)

and what is "multicore power saving"? it means it disable 2 core if all power is not needed? please explain because i don't know if activate it or not.

and, seeder is needed?
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] ajm786:
Yes, you have to pay for either one of those. Or find an app that you can use that can modify the speaker output.

The volume IS set too high. The reason why you hear that static when you try to play any sound out is because more than one sound playing at once has a stacking effect, so you'll hear the static more clearly.

I ALWAYS set my speaker output to -3, and have ZERO static playing any sounds, stacking or not.

The reality for me is that for my next device I will either follow Temasek if he moves to another device or buy a Nexus.

And unless Tema moves to a new Samsung phone this Note will be my last Samsung. It is simply too hard to get the experience I want from a phone on a Samsung device without having a brilliant developer who is dedicated to your specific device.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] techkia:
Is the "Encrypt Phone" setting working? After I click mine PIN, it brought me to the starting page. Nothing was done.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] lambik333:
hey Temasek,

what are the best settings for trickster (not only MP-Decision off/ Intelli-Plug On) but governor and so on (maybe put the best settings in OP) thnx and

is there a tutorial how to enable S-Pen future? thnx a lot, ill be back on your rom and no black screen anymore..............

:good::good::good:
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Snottierwhale:
Those setting need to be enabled in trickster as they are not defaults settings in the kernel.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Snottierwhale:
Best governor is interactive which is default. No other setting need to be enabled besides mp decision off and intelliplug on to achieve the performance you are looking for.

S-pen works as a stylus and you can use apps like papyrus, cm spen addon and note buddy to achieve more functionality.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] txpxsx:

Any plans regarding the implementation of paranoid Android dynamic system bar?
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] lambik333:
only trickster doesnt remember settings when i restart........
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] asusgarb:
hi. somebody can explain me how to set the kernel with "performance" under settings. i see we can choose between 3 profiles, but the values are the same for each one, and if i change them for one they change for all 3.

Do you think is better not to tick "set at boot" and use trickster to choose kernel parameters?
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] encho:
I agree on point that there's no need to upgrade, as new generation of phones is not that far ahead. But how is nexus behind? Nexus 6 is completely on par with Note 4 hardware wise: same soc, close screen size, screen type (amoled), ram memory, ois... It is more ahead of the other competition than 4 and 5 used to be, but regardless, nexus was never about performance but pure android experience.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] dragonsamus:
Thanks!! Had sound issues until I did what you posted.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] mi3x:
sorry to be the one noob asking, but how do I get to the multitasking app switcher? :confused:
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] viniciusrsouza:
Is this something similar to Xposed Tinted Status Bar?

If yes, probably it's superb!
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] asusgarb:
After the first hours the ROM look very good. I found only one annoying thing. I have some microlags when scrolling written pages. These are my kernel settings:

With trickster mpdecision off and intelliplug on

In "performance" (under settings) I enabled only free more memory and 16 bit transparencies.

No seeder.

I know I have to wait some times because the kernel has to settle, intact I think they will disappear. Anyone else has some lags?
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] BillGoss:
The only way I have managed to consistently encrypt my phone is:

- build the phone the way I want it

- take a backup in recovery

- flash the Samsung stock recovery

- do a factory reset

- flash back to my normal recovery

- restore the backup

- encrypt phone

Hltevzw running 152, so far so good. Had a few fc errors when customizing qs tile layout but nothing permanent. Clean flash plus additional fix. Running art. Sleeping like Rumpelstiltskin.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] caesar_:
+1 This feature would be a good look to this rom..
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] bibiner:
+ 1 too
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Killberty:
Editing build.prob should work, too, won't it?
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] temasek:
My understanding for multidpi is

Eg

App A - 400dp

App B - 320dp

And so on....

User selectable dpi for any app.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Killberty:
Oh okay, Per App Setting XPosed you mean.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] temasek:
Yeah, that's another word for it.

I don't use xposed so I'm kinda out of touch.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] asusgarb:
I just had this problem in V152 + update. I never used S-View because I read about this bug before installing. No notifications activated on lock screen and 360 DPI.

Another bug. I couldn't answer a call today. The ring used to select action (answer, refuse, ect) didn't move. I had to press home button and then answer from notification panel.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] KrzysztofGW:
I have turned off notifications, but the issue still exists... Also I had few times problem with answering calls.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Schneckmeier:
I've noticed that the settings of the profiles are restricted.

There is no app-group settings more.

Although it was previously reported that the individual volume settings no longer work.

I am the first who noticed this or was this already discussed?
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] mi3x:
How can I make the "Settings" window to be fullscreen by default?

It's always windowed and I have to make it fullscreen myself everytime. Did I enable this by mistake or is it because I set a lower DPI value? :confused:

Thanks!
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] dramitt_live:
Hmmm... Notification drawer/quick settings drawer.... Disable floating windows
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] viniciusrsouza:
+1 also!

I'm using Tinted Status Bar Xposed module for now and it's simply fantastic. It has some bugs and isn't being updated lately, but it's still pretty great and beautiful!
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] dramitt_live:
+1 pleaaaaase tema :))
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] viniciusrsouza:
Also, does anyone know if Paranoid new Android L recent apps layout is open source? It would be SUPERB if this could be introduced also here. Temasek's ROM would be even more blockbuster! ; )

[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] ajm786:
Well, after a little over a week of using v151 and v152, I've reverted back to v114. I'm going to try the v152 kernel with v114.

The battery life on the newer versions is just horrible. While the phone is perfectly stable, my Note 3 is getting 2 hours SOT with only 14 hours of battery total. I've tried everything possible, even uninstalling all apps. A clean install just sitting there will hold powermanagerservice wakelocks for no reason at all; BBS doesn't give me any info on what it is, either.

I've got a nandroid of v152 so I can go back at will.

Edit: Well, that was a complete disaster; bet the kernel is completely incompatible with a ROM that old. Back to v152 again.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] apacseven:
What have you done to try and figure out the cause of your battery problems? I can assure you its not the ROM, its most likely something you have installed. Have you checked wakelocks?
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] antt00:
Did you check cpu usage when screen is on? Something could be sucking your juice by keeping the cpu max when screen on. These are not wakelocks and wont be detected by BBS and similar apps.

Example, some version of lenovo camera app will cause this (need to greenify it). I have caught gsiff_daemon sucking my juice a few times (rename or delete the file).
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Sendaris:
The same weird lockscreen just happened to me as well, it looked exactly the same. I dont have an S-View case either..
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] bitmaster2000:
For those wanting to get Chromecast screen mirroring to work on the Note 3: use MirrorEnabler. It does the trick for me (getting the Cast Screen option in Chromecast).
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] ajm786:
Check out [MENTION=2332422]temasek[/MENTION]'s latest tweet. He mentions that it might be Google Play Services, and I tend to agree with him. I have checked wakelocks like a madman. I use both BBS and WLD religiously. It's not any of my apps, and, believe it or not, it's not even the CPU usage when the screen is on, which stays pretty low even in CPU intensive apps. Almost never hits 2265.

It's like a phantom drain. The ONLY way I can temporarily fix it is by opening Recents and removing all apps. Then, the battery usage flatlines...until enough apps open again, and it's back to the same thing.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] HKShooter:
I found that battery drains much faster in V152. In V151, my phone can run about 20 hours unit it drops to 20%. In V152, it's only 12 hours:(
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Killberty:
Thumbs up for QA Bot :D
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Snottierwhale:
What are u supposed to post in this thread if there is a "Q & A" thread?
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] temasek:
Q&A

I don't quite like the idea. It's optional AFAIK.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] ajm786:
I don't like it either. Puts more strain on you and the OP.

Anyway tema, regarding the wakelocks, let me tell you one thing I always do with Google Play Services to control its battery sucking ways.

I use App Ops and set the permissions for these to Denied:

Location

Keep Awake

Wake Up

However, with these new Google Play Services, it doesn't seem to make much difference. Like I said, it's kinda "phantom". It will eventually start draining unless I clear all running apps in Recents.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] temasek:
Google play services 6.1.x introduced on 21 October which I suppose automatically updates most of our phones, introduced some new/updates to its services/API.

I'm not liking it what I'm seeing. Hopefully something is done at Google end soon.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] ShredCreature:
Well, play services add lots of inconsistencies on battery life, it's a shame... I need to give 152 a bit more time, the first charge looks not that bad, with fairly good stand by time, very flat. After a long time I am back to what I was used to, having screen as the main battery drain. Android system and OS were eating battery like crazy for months now.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] nitrous²:
I've searched some time but couldn't find an answer. When a theme is applied, the addition Temasek setting items don't get themed. Is there any solution for that?

Many apologies if this question is already covered in a post.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Snottierwhale:
The developer of the theme you are using doesn't have those assets or pictures from this ROM themed. There is nothing temasek can do about the incomplete themes. You could notify the theme dev and request that these features be themed or else your out of luck.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] ShredCreature:
Well, I just don't get it... 25% over night, even if connections were mostly off, the phone mostly in deep sleep... What could be the root cause here? Any ideas?
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] sevenup30:
I had exactly same issue, what i did to fix it :

Install unbounce from xda its a xposed module,

Then let him block nip.... Wakelock there are two if i remember well,

You can set a number of time it allow the wakelock to wake, i set the min 150.

Now i lost 1% per night
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] ShredCreature:
Thank you, I have played with Wake locks before, but they don't seem to be a problem here. The phone is in deep sleep 95% of the time...in the past, when I had deep sleep stats life this one, the phone would burn maybe 5% over night, not much more... Why and what is wasting so much puzzles me...
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] svbarbosa:
+1

And Unbounce has been renamed to Lion Tamer.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] ShredCreature:
Why would nlp burn battery if it's not awake? I don't see the point here?
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Satano666:
Hey, im faceing some issues with themes. Some themes apply completly perfect but some have a status bar with the wrong color. It would be very nice if you could add an option to change the notification status bar color. In my screenshot the grey part on top should we white but i cant change it as i can do it with the tiles. Thanks for your great rom, i really love your work!
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] lambik333:
Sometimes you have to restart your phone to complete the theme
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] dramitt_live:

We all know you are not keen on donations in general :) but, please let us help you as for all you have done for our Note 3's.

Atleast let us help you replace your hdd with a proper SSD as a thank you, supply us with an email address that we can donate to.

After your hdd (ssd) is replaced you can close donations again at your own will.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] ShredCreature:
A simple crowd sourcing campaign would work well too, allowing for more payment methods, etc. Great idea, though!

[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Satano666:

[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Graknolla:
Hltespr 152 switching to art and arteractive improved battery performance for me significantly.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] svbarbosa:
I just know it works for me. Anyone willing to give a tech explanation?
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] ajm786:
I already tried wiping Google Play Services, and it makes no difference. Battery drain on v152 (or any of the newer versions) is simply much greater than on old versions, like v114, which I've been running for the better part of 3 months now.

With v114, I can get almost 6 hours of SOT and the phone can last up to 2 days on a single charge. With v152, I'm lucky to get over 2 hours SOT and have the phone last more than 16 hours. This is with all the same apps and same settings; no difference except the newer build.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] temasek:

[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] HKShooter:
In V152 HLTE, when I switch on Wifi, the network (2G,3G, LTE) signal disappears about 2 sec and then back to normal. I didn't find this problem in V151. It's not a big issue but hope it can be fixed in the next version.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] jdgamble:
You've done charity to everyone who uses your ROM. Your ROM is a great work, an art on it's own. If there's a Custom ROM Saint, you'd be our vote. Hehehe! Thank you for your great work. Since you won't take donations or stuff like that, i guess i can only put into words how grateful i am.

Hey, it looks like temasek put dynamic status bar into the ROM! I see an option for it when I go to settings!!!
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] antt00:
Loving the dynamic status bar. 153 working well so far as expected.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Muffycheeks:
Installing now will report back when I awake.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] ShredCreature:
Agreed, I have the same experience. I am testing carbon ROM now and, need to check if it is a one off, but tonight it flat lined.

About 3% in nine hours, which I think is perfect. Will report back if it stays like that. Great ROM so far.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] chazey2:
Here too many thanks Temasek, I use expanded but tinted bar working great if I pull down to check time etc in full screen mode.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Macchinista:
Me too!! Great Temasek for this new feature!
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] supergen007:
Hi,

Thank you very much!!!

Can we get your kernel separately to use it on stock cm? As far as I understand kernel in download site is not latest.

Thank you in advance.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] NoXXX:
Me to until I watch YouTube videos not full screen. The bar becomes crazy and changes its color constantly [emoji1]
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] temasek:
Lol Yeah

It's called dynamic for a reason. It's trying to adapt the the ever changing colors in the video.

I will see if it's possible to remedy it.

No promises.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] NoXXX:
Lol it is cool anyway [emoji1]
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] AO7:
It's really hard to lock down battery drain with Google Play Services installed on a device.

It can silently update, sync, write to the filesystem, etc... without us having any control over it bar from plain uninstalling.

I went 3 days with perfect battery life. Day 4 I check my phone in the afternoon and I'm at 6%/hour drain. Thanks Google.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] encho:
I'm trying different roms and they all seem to suffer from this drain, must be aosp issue. I'm also on carbon now, and it also happens. Using greenify, unbounce, everything I could try. Last night I disabled xposed, and here's the result. Little trivia: guess where I disabled it. [emoji41]
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] antt00:
Wonder how much it will effect the battery life. Time to test.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] sevenup30:
The exact name of wakelock are nlpwakelock and nlpcollectorwakelock

In unbounce it explain that those walelock are used by google play service to locate your position and send to google.

Maybe google playservice is crazy and locate ur phone too much time but blocking them with unbounce really increase my battery
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] MrShack:
I think I discovered few little bugs:

IR Remote of watchon app doesn't work properly

Google Camera app FC when going in panorama or photosphere mode.

Chrome beta always starts in floating window. Is there a control which app will be in floating mode or kind of a blacklist?

Thanks for your great work temasek, I enjoy this ROM a lot!
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] viniciusrsouza:
Great news!

But well, it's necessary to disable Tinted Status Bar Xposed module before using the integrated feature?

And, by the way, what would be the chances of introducing the new recent apps from Android 5.0 as an option also, [MENTION=2332422]temasek[/MENTION]? Also from Paranoid!
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] chazey2:
Now that would be nice, if possible.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Pehpe:
Battery drain or not. I have 3 batteries, 2 of them are always loaded. Why does everybody look at this battery lifetime.

it costs 20€ and you'll have no problems.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] caesar_:
Just because you're good with carrying around a pocket full of batteries doesn't mean everyone else is.

But I do agree with you to some point. A phone at this cost should be able to get you through the day at least. So it shouldn't matter if you get 2hrs of screen time or 6.. The question is, did it get you through the day??

For me.. I answer with yes everyday. On an average 12hr work day I come home with 30%. On my off days my battery last about 36hrs. Less screen time of course.

Hopefully L runs more efficient though..
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] cdmackay:
I believe a bug has been logged against Chrome Beta for this...
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] ajm786:
My crazy battery drain seems to be gone. [MENTION=2332422]temasek[/MENTION] just posted on his Twitter that the wakelocks he was having is gone, and it was because Google Play services were updated. Lo and behold, I checked, and mine is updated too, to version 6.1.83. The one that was draining the battery was version 6.1.74.

So far today, I've been off the charger for 10 hours, and battery life is at 89%, 30 minutes SOT. Seems to be much better now.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] ThisAwesomeGuy:
Should I stick with the stock kernel?
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] dramitt_live:
It's one of the best out there

ZION959 kernel

It's your choice.
