PLEASE REPLY AND HELP
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] CCallahan:
Not necessarily. As with all roms/kernels sometimes a particular device will act differently than another "identical" device. Especially with kernels.

You are hearing from the few that are having issues but not from the majority that are not. There were peeps having issues with all other versions as well and can be caused by numerous things.

Try it and see how it runs for you. Easy enough to flash something different later on if you prefer. At this point I find this build to be just as good or better than the previous.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] sisterchick:
I agree. I'm fixing to install again from scratch - including a fresh download. Civato makes a quality ROM. I think the problem is just me. :)
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] jwdink:
Appreciate both of your advice. Ended up flashing the earlier version before I got your replies anyways-- I can always upgrade later (when I feel like restoring a bunch of backups again). I'm not actually super clear on the difference between 2.1 and 3.0 is, though...

Meanwhile-- this is great! Pen is finally accurate. Can actually write in a reasonable sized font, instead of like a child.

can someone guide me on how to update bootloader only ? coz i was waiting for the N5100 support thanks in advance
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] memooffon:
KitKat bootloader

http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23501681358549841

Flashing with Odin v3.09

Put your phone into download mode.

Launch Odin, then connect the USB cable to your device.

Click the "BL" button and select "KitKat-bootloader-N5100XXDND8.tar" you downloaded.

Click "Start" in Odin and wait for the process to complete.

Your device should reboot automatically when the flash is complete, and you're done.

I am getting the random lockups as well, tried pulling back the overclock to 1.6 on the pegususq gov, still got it, I am now trying to throttle back the voltages -25mV for each frequency in System Tuner Pro and see how it works out. Thanks for your hard work Civato, I appreciate the efforts!
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] tooandrew:
Since updating my tablet has been randomly turning off and rebooting. I wiped and did a fresh install when I updated. I am also experiencing lockups. Would a logcat help resolve this? Thank you for this quality product, though. I also got System UIDs Inconsistent at least once. I cleared data because it told me to, still reboots and cuts off
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] @BB:
I'm getting the exact same thing ... I hope someone figures this out.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] CCallahan:
To those that are having issues what recovery are you using (type and version)? What is the install procedure? Did you try fixing permissions?

At what point in the install does it lock up? After apps are restored or before, mods enabled, etc?

Post as much info as possible so the cause might be narrowed down.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] sisterchick:
Just had another lockup. I'm on Phil Z recovery 6.48.5 I believe (latest on Civato's download). Clean install yesterday. No mods and very few Samsung apps installed. Default settings. All apps auto installed from market. Data on four apps restored. This time it locked in OneNote. Noticed tablet got hot too. Just installed latest SphereKat kernel to see if that helps.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] k9time:
I flashed with TWRP 2.6.3.0. Ran fine for awhile then starting having problems. Flashed back to PhilZ Touch 6.4.1.6 as I was going to re-flash. But I wiped cache and booted back up and have been running great. I am not going to re flash now as all is well. If I do flash again it will be with 6.41.6. The one cirvato has always recommended. .
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] ramjet73:
FWIW I've been running FlexROM 3.0 flashed with TWRP 2.6.3.0 since the day it was released, including my testing of Chromecast and Miracast, without any problems.

I think the main reason for the Philz recommendation is because the 2.7.3.0 version of TWRP for the Note 8.0 doesn't have proper support for Aroma. But I agree that anyone that uses TWRP does it at their own risk and needs to re-flash with Philz if they have problems since [MENTION=3986004]civato[/MENTION] presumably tests using that version.

ramjet73
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] k9time:
Yeah ram jet the reason I went to 2.6.3.0 was because you run it with no problems.. The only other thing I changed was install DVFS Disabler by wanam. Everything else the same and running good.. Strange..
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] fajabird:
R3.0 is very unstabe for me. Device has random shutdowns while in standby and some freezes while in use.

Already tried clean install including wiping data completely.

[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] Sczar:
Did a new fresh Odin and root and then I installed the latest philz 6.48.4. Then installed this Rom.

I've noticed that Synapse is not in the settings like the previous rom? Any idea why its not there?

Also noticed that OGBatteryMod is force closing when applying.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] CCallahan:
Are you wiping internal sdcard as well? If not, I would recommend doing that.

Wipe to install new rom

Wipe internal sd

Wipe dalvik

This is my stance on it after seeing how many different issues were solved on the S4 by wiping thoroughly before flashing.

THEN....Run the rom without

anything

added for a day or so and see what happens.

---------- Post added at 09:37 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:30 AM ----------

Some prefer to use other apps such as Trickster Mod or SetCPU. Synapse is easily downloaded from Play Store as is the others so probably left out to keep the rom package slim and save time maintaining.

Are you using any Xposed modules or other mods that might conflict with OG Battery Mod? Works fine on mine.

Hi great and awesome rom!! One question could some help with getting the bootloader only for the gt-n5110 thanks in advance....a couple of posts back there was a zip but it was for the 5100. If some one could point me to correct zip would be appreciated..

Thanks and if im on 3.0 would it be nf1 or the ne1? Sorry for the question just wat to be correct. Thanks for your help
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] CCallahan:
I'm on NF1
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] ramjet73:
For those users having problems, did you do a "Prepare for new ROM" in Philz or "Factory reset" in TWRP before flashing the ROM?

I did the latter and reloaded my apps with Titanium Backup after flashing and haven't had any issues with FlexNote 3.0.

ramjet73
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] llblwskydrgn:
Is there a method to flash new bootloader in custom recovery if we're on build nf1 build? Or can we only flash the tar file via Odin?
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] Agfadoc:
I am using Philz 6.48.4 and used the wipe for new rom, No special addons from Aroma, recovered apps without data from Titanium. I lowered the clock speed, lowered the voltages, and still have occasional lockups. Lowering the voltages helped significantly, but it still was acting up. Going back for now. Looking forward to additional updates to test.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] civato:
This thread will be deleted as I'm bringing a new named flex burst with the kernel runner.

I rebuild the kernel and I compared some sources. I found some stuff that are solved in the 5120 source so I mixed the sources to get the most updated one.

I'm running this new rom and kernel and it is bug free for me.

Release will be later.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] fajabird:
Yes I did that, plus formating whole internal sdcard.

Currently I switched to Philz 6.41.6 and reflashed from beginning. Seems better but this is just my first impression.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] k9time:
Yup.. mine is rock solid since I flashed back to 6.41.6.. there is a pattern forming here..
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] ramjet73:
I still have had no problems (not even one hangup) with my FlexNote 3.0 installation flashed with TWRP 2.6.3.0 and I use it a lot, but I guess time will tell.

You know [MENTION=4217578]fajabird[/MENTION] originally flashed with Philz 6.48.4, right?

ramjet73
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] k9time:
I know.. I'm not doubting you in the least bit.. believe me I read your every comment..but I have been around a bit..
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] ramjet73:
I'm just saying that if there's a pattern forming it may be the newer version of Philz recovery since that's not the version [MENTION=3986004]civato[/MENTION] specifies in the OP as the one he uses. So far I think you and I are the only ones that have "admitted" to flashing FlexNote with TWRP and IIRC you said you had one problem and decided to revert to Philz.

So I think the jury is still out on the version of recovery used and apparently [MENTION=3986004]civato[/MENTION] has found some things in the kernel that he thinks might be related to the issues that are surfacing in 3.0.

As I said earlier, time will tell. I just wish someone would update TWRP to a version that could be officially blessed for Aroma support since, at least for me, it has a lot of advantages over Philz. :fingers-crossed:

ramjet73
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] fajabird:
Right!

But: while the rom seems more stable now when flashed with 6.41.6 I had the log full or errors about secuee storage complaining that kernel binary has been changed without changing some other stuff. My firefox was not able to start any more so I could not post the content here. I had to reboot.

Hmmm...

Have you checked the SELinux status in the kernel tweaks section of Synapse? I've got mine set to "permissive" but "enforcing" can cause a lot of issues like that with custom ROM's and kernels.

Hello I absolutely love the rom it's soo smooth and so many possibilities that I probably did not figure out yet but the only thing that does not work for me is the water ripple ink effect other than that the rom is awesome
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] civato:
The log you posted got nothing to do with firefox.

Something else caused the firefox problem.

This will be fixed in the new rom and kernel.

It is the secure_storage /system/bin/secure_storage_daemon (KNOX) that is starting up.

As this is a custom kernel the signature will not be the same as the bin file (platform).

So I disabled the secure storage as it is useless in my rom because the KNOX is removed.

The kernel was calling this service over and over again that is why you got the logcat error every 2 seconds.

The kernel will no longer call this service as I disabled it.

Here is what I changed in the kernel ramdisk , I disbaled the secure knox service and prevented the deamon to start up.

My changes in init.smdk4x12.rc

line 172
setprop ro.securestorage.knox [COLOR=Red]false[/COLOR]

mkdir /dev/.secure_storage
chmod 0711 /dev/.secure_storage
chown system system /dev/.secure_storage

I hope this answers your qeustion.

If security is a must for you I strongly recommend a full stock rom with KNOX enabled combined with a Stock kernel.

Ink effect is only supported with the spen.

How can I get rid of the quick launch panel in the notification shade? Not the S-Pen one, but the one that has been added to the TW base.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] jwdink:
If you press and hold each of the icons, there's a "delete" option. Doesn't technically get rid of the panel, but once the panel is empty you can't really tell it's there.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] CCallahan:
You can use this app to remove it however it is not free (will allow you to utilize more functions of this also): 3Minit Quicklauch Settings

Otherwise, you have to rip it out of the systemUI manually. Is probably worth the $0.99 either way unless civato is going to remove it in the next build.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] mach281:
Works very good, no major issues with this beta. I am finding the graphics much smoother than in v. 2.1. Unfortunately, for me though, Hulu is still jerky as it was.

Only two minor issues to report:

Samsung keyboard does not play nice when changing the dpi here. Lowering the dpi makes the keyboard fill only partial screen. I had to change to Google keyboard to get a full size keyboard. Incidentally, the app I always use to alter the dpi, texdroider_dpi, is ineffectual in this rom. I had to use a different app called DPI changer, which may have affected the keyboard results.

For whatever reason Vudu, in the app store, reports that this device is not compatible when, in fact, it is.

Thanks!

Closed.

New rom will be released
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] civato:
INFO

RE-OPENED

New rom and kernel = New title for this thread.

A lot of work was done on the new kernel.

S-pen calibration is now spot on thanks to the 5120 source drop.

Debugging was done on the kernel and the secure error in logcat is solved.

Frandom and intelli hotplug is added to the kernel.

Look in the OP for full details

The rom has changed a little in the arom.

There is a battery mod section now.

Custom bootanimation is the google one now.

Please take time to read the OP for full details. and rememeber, KK bootloader only with this new kernel.

Source will be released today on github.

KK Bootloade

Obviously I am not an expert on flashing roms and all this stuff, but anyway I would like to test this rom. However at the first page is mentioned to have the KK Bootloader. I was checking but I dont find an explanation how to do that. Please be so kind and give me a hint how to I flash the KK Bootloader, and yes My Note is on JB.

Thanks a lot :cowboy:
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] 1eyedmonster:
Dont flash the kk bootloader as you will have the charging issue with cm /aosp roms so

1. Download the rom and kernel

2. Do a full wipe and cache

3. Flash the rom with philz kernel

4. Boot the device until fully booted

5. Reboot back into recovery and flash the custom kernel

6. Clean dalvic cache then reboot

7. Thank the developer and enjoy your rom

[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] CCallahan:
I'm sorry but a bit confused by your reply. If you are going to tell someone not to upgrade to the KK bootloader (N8 runs better on it in my opinion) to be 100% compatible with civato's new rom then should specify which custom kernel they need in order to stay on JB boot. Also the user needs to know that there will not be support in this thread if going with the JB bootloader option.

Might also change Philz kernel to PhilZ recovery just so new flashers don't get confused. :p
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] 1eyedmonster:
im on the kk bootloader and the rom works fine with this rom witnout flashing the custom kernel however by flashing the new bootloader it stops you installing any other variant of rom ie cm and aosp

What im trying to say is if I could turn back time and not flash the kk bootloader I would however I did and now I cant flash any cm 11 aosp until a fix for the charging when off issue is found but upto now no one has it

In respect to your question if you want to upgrade the bootloader to kk you will be stuck on kk tw

But to flash the kk bootloader you must update with 4.4.2 from Sammobile. Com make sure it's correct one with your country and most importantly your model number and flash with odin once finished it should be on kk

The ROM zip file is too big (1.7 GB) for Dev-Host so I've uploaded it to a Google Drive mirror. Since Google puts a bandwidth limit on the downloads for each file it's going to be first come, first served, and after the bandwidth limit is reached others will have to wait for [MENTION=3986004]civato[/MENTION] to decide how he wants to handle it unless other users put up additional mirror(s).
