Phone Freezes / Un Responsive

I have observed the following few issues.

1. Sometimes the phone becomes slow / unresponsive. Even app drawer will respond late, lock and unclock will take time

2. In two scenarios when I plugged in locked phone for charging and wanted to unlock again, the screen never turned on. It stayed black.

I had to remove the battery and restart.

3.As few of the other people have noted dowm, my battery is also draining fast.

Any one else noticed the first two issues ? If so let me know what steps were followed to resolve them.

Stock or agni kernel? I had that issue with agni kernel, not with stock kernel. Also..tweaks or no tweaks?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] pvaldeben:
I'm on Beta 1 AGNi on 3.4 bootloader. Yes once plugged in the phone might not unlock. Yesterday had issue were audio was not working. I used google musi it never played audio then forgot about it the i used recorder and trides listening to it and no audio was playing. Every thing worked after reboot.

This morning I flashed new AGNi 4.2.1 kernel today. Did dirty flash the kernel over AGNi 4.0 and tgen flashed super user. Not even an hour yet but all is working ok on new kernel.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] thershope:
1) Agni Kernel.

2) I am not sure what do you mean (tweak or no tweak). I chose optimize ROM option while installing

All I did was clean install of Beta 2.

is there a way to just change the kernel and keep all the changes from beta 2?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Double0EK:
Once Beta 3 is released in gonna jump back onto this. I mean DN3 is nice and all but most of the features I don't use. Keep up the good work! :thumbup:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] pvaldeben:
As mentioned before Today ran Beta 1 with AGNi kernel 4.0. Even with about 5 reboot I'm getting amazing battery life.

Setup = Beta 1+ AGNi 4.0 Kernel

Unplugged = 13 hours

Screen On = dont know since I rebooted few times, I would say about 2.5 hours

Remaining battery = 50% left.

Sweet.

Bug noticed today: when connecting to cloud live evernote or Onenote a pop up appears saying soundlive has stopped or stopped working. I'll get a screen shot next time. It does not cause any issue that I know of, only thing it does is popup then click ok.

Same here I've had my note 2 for about 2 years and just now started using Snote. Note 3 features pretty cool but cant imagine using it more just because the feature are there. Agree a light rom and close to stock to stock with S5 featues is a good objective. Maybe including LMT and FN in Beta 3 built would be very practical. I always install at least LMT since the back button is too far from thumb when using one had. FN with halo is excellent for receiving text messages without closing the current app you are running.

Just to recap known issues:

1) predictive text issue in Beta 1 and Beta 2: where it replaces word with junk words; Workaround is to turn off predictive text in settings

2) Lock screen, edit personal message not working on Beta 2.

3) soundlive not responding message on Beta1.[/QUOTE]

Hi Again, Today's battery stats on Beta 1 + AGNi kernel 4.2.1 with 4.3 boot loader.

Setup = Beta2 + dirty flashed kernel AGNi 4.2.1 over AGNi 4.0l

Unplugged = 12 hours 10 minutes

Screen On = 3 hours 17 minutes

Remaining battery = 12% left.

So not impressed with new AGNi kernel today as with Beta1+AGNi 4.0 I was getting 13 hours and still 50% battery. I could be that dirty flashing over the kernel might have cause the normal battery stat for today.

Going to try same setup with New installation of Beta 1 + Agni 4.2.1 kernel tomorrow. expecting to get better battery result

.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] bsbachert:
The tweaks are the optimize rom. Please try without the tweaks and let me know your results. Dirty flash without a wipe and select no for the optimize.

Thanks for your input.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] bsbachert:
Thank you all for your input. I'll get beta 3 out soon. Hell week at work, and I am working 12hour days.

Take care..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] pvaldeben:
Hey bsbachert, we appreciate your work and I'm grateful that you made this ROM and my Note 2 interesting again. Me posting my battery start every day is in no way trying to rush you. I just like posting my battery stats and setup. I'm already using beta 1 as a daily driver and having lots of fun with it.

Thanks again and cheers.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] thershope:
Will do after I reach home today and let you know the result.

This is the battery test from 6/6/14 with clean install of AGNi kernel 4.2.1 , not as before the dirty flash over 4.0. Battery is better and only issue is that I was not able to backup with titanium backup.

Setup = Beta 1+ AGNi 4.0 Kernel clean install for kernel

Unplugged = 15 hours 29 Minutes

Screen On = 2.5

Remaining battery = 23% left.

I'm Using this Rom as my Daily Driver.

I'm loving the battery life as well.

I just need to find out two things and I'm good.

1. Some of the foreign font doesn't show.

2. T-mobile lte never worked. Always 4g and edge.

Any Help on both of those problems will be great other then that i'm loving this rom.

Thank you again for making such a grate rom even when it's in beta version.

Hi

So i just installed TWRP and did a backup to my external sd card. Then rooted it with no issues. I have now copied the twrp backup to my pc, is it ok to delete the backup from my external sd card?

Thanks :)

twrp backup

hey,

if you copy the twrp directory from the top then i suppose

but honestly, keep your backup where it is, it just seems wiser

bye
[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Brian D:
I keep all my backups on my PC (I have multiple going back several weeks/months) . The choice is up to you where to keep your backups. There is a possibility that you might format your SD card by mistake. So keeping multiple copies is not a bad idea. I personally keep nothing on my SD card. It is there as a "go between" the PC and the Tablet if I do not have my cable with me.

So your call; PC, Tablet internal storage, SD Card, or any combination of those.
[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bruteoutlawz:
Thanks pal, just wanted to make sure before i deleted it off my external sd. :)
[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] moonbutt74:
good call, i forgot about that, thanks
[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Brian D:
Here is one more thing I do. Before attempting anything new that might cause problems with the tablet, I will put the most current backup in the download folder of internal memory. Then, if anything goes wrong and for some reason I can't access the SD card or cannot connect to the PC via the USB port, then I can go to TWRP and restore the tablet from internal memory. It is just a failsafe procedure. And, I will always backup before adding any new apps. If the apps work then I will back up again so I have a restore with the new apps added.

One can never have too many backups.

[General Topics] toomuchdogfur:
The 'Pictures' app included with Windows Mobile PDA/phones should be able to rotate and save pictures - look closely at the buttons on the bottom row when a picture is open.

As for videos, I'm a bit confused! Do you mean you want to temporarily rotate your videos so that you can view them on landscape on your PDA? Then use TCPMP (Google it), a great freeware media player that plays Divx/XviD, WMV, etc etc...

If you mean actually changing say, a 320x240 video to a 240x320 one (permanent rotation), then I dunno!
[General Topics] HidRo:
Ah, thank you!

Now I saw it. You will have to View the picture, and then press EDIT. I don't know why this is not available on the thumbnail mode...

Thanks!

About the movie, I've heard about tcpmp, but what I want is to change from 320x240 to 240x320.

Thanks for the info!

Anyone else knows how to accomplish this?
[General Topics] levenum:
That would take actually re-encoding (I think) which even for a 100MB movie would be a bit too much work for a PPC device.

Such app might exist any way but I don't know any.

Try a desktop app called Virtual Dub. It's free and lets you manipulate just about any format in any way (size, orientation, encoding etc.).
[General Topics] vijay555:
TCPMP can of course rotate to landscape easily.

If you want to reformat the source video itself, as Levenum says, use Virtual Dub and apply a filter to rotate. It doesn't take too long, but is a lossy process because you have to re-encode.

This is definitely not something for the PDA, PC only.

If you're recompressing or reformatting for PDAs, I highly recommend SmartMovie, http://www.lonelycatgames.com/index.php?note=smartmovie&chapter=smartmovie

or Lathe/PocketDivXEncoder

[General Topics] HidRo:
Humm..

The thing is I can't play 3gp taken by MIO on Nokia phones. I assume that it can be due to "size", but I don't know.

Thanks for all the input!
[General Topics] toomuchdogfur:
Well I don't have a clue how MIO's camera apps work, as I only have a HTC Magician, but try and check that your camera is indeed recording apps to standard 3gp - meaning it uses the H.263/H.264 (i forgot which) or MPEG-4 codec.

Also, as far as I know, only the most recent 'N' series of Nokias and some other high-end Nokias use 320x240 resolution screens. For Series40 Nokias (eg. 6230), the screen resolution usually sits at 128x128, with optimal support for 128x96 videos. Series60 (eg. 6600) usually have 176x200 screens, meaning that 176x144 is best for them. If your MIO has any resemblance to my Magician, its camera app should have options for you to take video at these lower resolutions.

As for resizing existing video, yes VirtualDub is the best, but it won't support 3GP (from my experience the MOD version will only do AVIs and MPEG-1 and MPEG-2 reliably). You could try ImTOO MPEG Converter (Google it), which while of dubious coding quality will convert many files to many other files. A free and perhaps better option is SUPER, though be wary as it will spit out some out of sync files on some formats (but theres so bloody many formats supported that it's hard to list them)!
[General Topics] HidRo:
That's it. Thank you very much!!

I recorded in H.263_AMR 240x320, and since it was sent to a 6630 it wouldn't play it...

I will record and send in 144x176 and try it!

BTW, why does the quality suck on Mio video capture?

Look at these 2 clips and a bit of a picture.
[General Topics] toomuchdogfur:
Sorry bout the long reply, been quite busy recently with work!

Anyway, video capture isnt a particularly strong point with Pocket PCs and phones in general... their processors cant capture full 25fps video at high quality - remember thats like taking 25 photos a second! My Magician wont do nice smooth video even at 176x144, and I daresay that the Mio range fares worse since most of them use the slower Windows Mobile 5. Thats just something that no one seems to be able to fix, unfortunately :(.

However CoolCamera apparently will work better with the camera than the default camera apps... however I don't think its compatible with the Mio. Even if it does, you'll have to pay for it :roll:. Also note that it can only record to AVI - Motion JPEG codec, so it wont play back on Nokias.

EDIT: Not sure if this is the same case with Mios, but on my Magician, formatting the storage card to FAT16 makes a huge difference to read/write times! Try that to speed up your video to storage card!

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] N074N008:
Hi everyone!

My friend has a Sprint Galaxy Note II that's stuck on the Samsung logo and I have no idea how to fix it. They had been having weird problems with it for a while before this started. For instance, it would start working in "slow motion", It would run out of storage space very quickly, and for a couple of days before this happened my friend was having a hard time getting it to charge (the light wouldn't even come on.). Now, whenever they plug it in, it shows the battery icon but... It's sort of stuck. It has the loading icon on the battery, but it doesn't go around and around like it should. They tried pulling the battery out and then turning it back on, but it just shows the Samsung logo. The logo doesn't do that blue glowing thing either. They have VERY IMPORTANT information on it, so doing a factory reset isn't an option. It is NOT ROOTED. it has never been rooted or modified in any way. I had to confiscate it so they wouldn't break it out of frustration, so it's in my possession now. As I said, WIPING IT ISN'T AN OPTION. Can you please help me fix it?

Thanks in advance! :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
I would suggest trying to get it to boot into download mode. While powered off press and hold vol -, home key, and power. If it goes into download flash a custom recovery (twrp suggested) and use file manager to copy important information to an external sdcard.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] RayTrue04:
Try a different charger/usb cord and if that don't work maybe it's time for a new battery as that one sounds like it might be no good and completely dead.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] N074N008:
Another question

Thanks jlmancuso! I feel like I should know this already, but I won't lose any files in the process of rooting, will I? I've only rooted one phone before and it was my S4. I rooted it straight out of the box, so I didn't have any files on it. It's very important that I don't lose the files on my friend's phone. Do you (or anyone else here) know of a way to get the files off without rooting it? Or a way to get it working again without losing the important files?

Thanks!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
Well actually if you follow the steps i gave you then you are not actually rooting only installing a recovery. This will not cause you to lose any info and will aid you later to get the phone running again.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] N074N008:
Thanks again jlmancuso! You're awesome!

How do I flash the custom recovery? I always thought I knew a lot but I guess I don't...

If you can continue to help me with this, that would be great!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
Well here are the basics

Using a windows pc with samsung drivers installed along with odin. Boot phone into download mode and connect to pc. Open odin and uncheck the reboot option. Click the pda button and select the twrp recovery file i linked. Once it flashes (should only take a moment) disconnect the phone and remove battery. No insert and remove battery several times very quickly. This prevents the phone from automatically booting. Now boot into recovery mode and use the built-in file manager to copy important data from internal sdcard to an external card.

Volume down + home button + power button = download mode

Volume up + home button + power button = recovery mode

Make sure you hold all three keys till you see the bootscreen

Twrp link.... http://goo.im/devs/OpenRecovery/t0ltespr/openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.7-t0ltespr.img.tar

Now have linked you to twrp because it has a built-in file manager but if you want to install aosp 4.4 custom roms or backup/restore stock 4.3 roms then you will want to use philz 6.07.9
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] N074N008:
Thanks again! I'll do what you said when I have the time. I'll let you know whether or not it boots into download mode successfully.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] N074N008:
Sorry it took me so long. The phone will boot into both recovery and download mode. We spoke to someone at our local Sprint store who was able to determine that the problem is not being caused by the battery, the charging port, or any other hardware. He told us that we have two options: we can either flash the custom recovery, or he can try to flash it back to the official software, which isn't supposed to wipe it. My friend has been without a phone for a long time, but they aren't sure what to do. They really don't want to lose any data because there are pictures and text messages that are needed for a legal issue. Can you help us figure this out? Thanks again!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
Well now you talked with Sprint let me fill you in on something. Sprint techs know very little. If you let them re-flash it then you will lose the data.

As I stated earlier flash twrp recovery and use its file manager to move things from your internal sdcard to an external sdcard.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] N074N008:
Thanks again! Do you think there's any way to recover text messages?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
Yes but it will be a bit more involved. Are the real important? They are stored in a database file.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] N074N008:
Yes, they are VERY important. My friend needs them as proof in a legal matter.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
Ok I will double check the location of the file. Couple of questions first. What os was installed stock? 4.1.2, 4.3, or 4.4.2? Second are there mms messages that you need? Last what os is on your pc? This way I can gather up links to the needed software.
