Any chance to get a ram bar on recents in future build? That is the only thing I have using xposed at the moment (besides tether which you said you think you know why it's not working). Not getting lag, but would like to not run xposed if I don't have to.

Hi Lacoursiere18,

Unfortunately, that's the only course for some. I did figure out where the hang is taking place and it appears to be when the phone is activating on the network. I don't know what's different between the stock and Agni kernel during that stage, or if it's the particular cell site that's activating the phone. Hence, works for some and not for others...

Clean flash with TWRP and got a Failed message...flashed Philz and flashed ROM again with no problem. So far so good....had to add the Moto Tether to get tething to work but otherwise it looks great. Thanks very much Alliance team! This will help get me through the next few weeks until the new batch of phones come out and I upgrade.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DaveKnowsAll:
Exactly where I am. Need xposed for tether and exchange security bypass, but loving ths build regardless. I have had one spontaneous shutdown in 4 days...wasn't doing anything but walking and listening to an audio book over Bluetooth and suddenly it was just dead, but I am using Agni so that may be on me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] thisguyeh:
Still getting the lag issue.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] pmsrefugee:
Is there a way to flash back from agni? If I dirty flash will I lose all my settings?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] tulalhyt:
it is done, we can disable it in agni control apps (if you're using agni kernel)

thankx everyone
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] golfinglenn:
I have run into another issue. I was getting a lot of no wake issues and having to pull battery to use the phone. I was using agni kernal and xposed for some things. So I did a full wipe and reinstalled 27 with stock kernal and no xposed, but now when I open Gallery to change wallpaper or view pictures I just get gray boxes. The file names are there and I can open each of the files, but when I open them I still get gray boxes instead of pictures. If I pick one of the boxes it will use that pic for the wallpaper, but it is a guessing game lol. Tried renaming the folders with the laptop, but no go, still gray boxes.

Any ideas? I did install foldermount but didn't help.

Thanks,

Glenn
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] bwpoersch:
I had the same thing installing without agni , all the gallery boxes were gray. Rebooted into recovery to install agni and all the photos were there again.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] S0UTHPAWK1LLA:
Did you use TWRP? I have had better results clean installing using Philz. And it is really easy flipping back if you have to so long as you have your zips on SD.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] golfinglenn:
Thanks bwpoersch, flashed Agni in recovery and all photos now show up in gallery. I also went into agni settings and found the wake setting and changed it from 10 seconds to 0 to prevent screen wake after locking screen. Also found a bunch of other fun setting with sound and other stuff.

S0UTHPAWK1LLA, I use Philz to flash. I like TWRP interface much better, but switched after reading that Philz works better kitkat?

At any rate, seems things are back to normal. Going to avoid xposed and see if the no wake issue comes back. Still have the double clock when I move it to the center through the rom settings, but figure that will get fixed with the next update. Battery life has been outstanding!!!!

Why are we doing this? Did I tell you to create a Q&A for my thread? Since when did XDA implement other users I don't even know to create Q&A's?? WTH??

If you are one of the users of my ROM you can ask the ?'s right here boys.. Please disregard this and whoever this person is.. He does not know anything about this ROM or Alliance..:good:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] S0UTHPAWK1LLA:
For those using Agni (which the Dev says not to do)... Have you noticed that the 4.2.5 version uses the international source? I have never had any luck using anything other the I605 specific kernels and roms. If you absolutely must use agni, consider 4.2.4 which was still based off I605 OSRC
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] lacoursiere18:
^^^ and this why I say not use it.. Why use a kernel from a dev that does not have your phone.. EEEKK
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] S0UTHPAWK1LLA:
WTF... I'm on "stock" B27 and just noticed my WiFi off. I tried to turn it on and it won't. Literally... One minute on...one minute off without doing a thing. Something weird started happening after my last post cause it kept defaulting to the Samsung keyboard no matter how many times a set it to google.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] freddy0872:
My WiFi was never good on B27. I just run with it off. I simply can not get my device to boot without AGNi. If it does I run into a collapse of apps FC's WiFi is not any better there.

Ive got a good 4G connection here and 10GB of data to chew up so im okay with running without WiFi. I made a post a few pages back asking dev what i could do to get him some info on the issue like a logcat or dsmeg but i didnt hear anything so im just going to roll along with it and appreciate the freaking awesome ROM finally on 4.4.2! :good:

But thankfully wifi Hotspot has worked without a hitch so far
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] S0UTHPAWK1LLA:
Just strange. I have been good with everything. I gave up on wanam, was running this ROM clean on stock kernel before... bam! So..I restored my backup. Just caught me off guard
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] golfinglenn:
I am only running Agni due to the fact that I couldn't get stock kernal to read pictures from my SD card, just a bunch of gray boxes unless I clicked on it, then the pic worked as wallpaper, but it was a guessing game lol. My wifi works fine and having zero no wake issues since I quit playing with xposed.

And if I ever sound like I am complaining, I am indeed not!!! I appreciate tremendously the hard work that the developer has put into this rom and made my Note 2 a new machine again. Just posting my findings and issues to help identify them and hopefully help others solve similar.

Any one else having issues with Alliance Them Manager? nothing happens when I select a theme.

How do I change the clock color it is defaulted the light gray and would like to change it to match the rest of the status bar.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] stueycaster:
Kindly disregard please.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] KuNiT:
Most of us don't have a choice because this rom won't boot without using it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] lacoursiere18:
Thats bc you either using TWRP that has issues.. or you have previously used Agni therefore leaving crap all of your sdcard and system.. You need to wipe clean.. Odin if you have too..

This ROM is STOCK based.. so if you got ND7 Stock deodex to boot then this should boot for you..:silly:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] KuNiT:
I did have TWRP installed. Did a full wipe, installed Philz, did a full wipe with Philz as well. Never had AGNI installed either. Have used Beans Rom's since the beginning.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] MADDAN18:
Can't really point the finger at just this ROM. It's any and all 4.4.2 based roms...for me at least.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] KuNiT:
Oh believe me, I am not pointing the finger at all on this ROM. It's been for all 4.4.2 stock based ROMs for me, not just this one. Been a huge bean supporter from the beginning and am very grateful for this one as well. I just really wish I didn't have to use AGNI kernel. It's been solid no doubt, but I would really like to try out Stock kernel.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] MADDAN18:
Oh I hear ya, and I didn't me to come off as directing this towards you at all. Beans last build for this phone was 4.3 based and they all seemed to work perfectly. But soon as 4.4.2 based roms came out, let the headaches begin...it's something I believe is related to the bootloader unlock method we used at the time. I believe this is something Verizon/Samsung has coded somewhere (some forms of check?) Who knows? either way, agni kernel seems to work perfectly for me. So I'm happy with what I have, as long as it's working.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] KuNiT:
I totally agree with the bootloader unlock method as well or a Samsung check. 4.4.2 has been a mystery when it comes to people flashing.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] MADDAN18:
It makes perfect logical sense...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] crash613:
There was an app that was part of a rom that I tried, I don't remember which one, that would launch a pop up note app whenever the spen was removed.... It is very convenient for taking messages while on the phone. .

Does anyone know what I am thinking of, or where I can get something like that now?

I am not looking to have it integrated in the rom... Just want to add the feature myself, if possible

Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Romans8vs1:
Anyone know of a mod to get a 5 x 6 launcher on this rom?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] freddy0872:
Did u try nova launcher? U can set what grid size u want manually
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mising:
I use GMD spen control, from the Play Store to launch pop up s-note. Plus it has many other configurations and settings to play with. I've heard Spen tool box is also pretty good but basic.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mdblaze:
For those of you that are having the gray thumbnails in gallery issue, I was also. This is how I fixed it:

Delete everything in /sdcard/Android/data/com.google.android.gallery3d.

Wipe data for Gallery app.

Reboot.

This will allow your gallery to regenerate the proper thumbnails.

I must be blind, because I am not seeing "S pen" under settings

Please advise
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Romans8vs1:
Thanks for the suggestion, but i want the stock launcher with a 5 x 6 area. I have a mod i used for a previous rom but it doesnt work with this rom.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] lacoursiere18:
The launcher on the next build is modified.. there are some things that will break unless you use it.. My suggestion..

There are plenty of guides on how to modify your launcher grid.. Search for them and they shall appear :laugh:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] stueycaster:
I am truly sorry. I was thinking about my previous rom.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] stueycaster:
I was having trouble with music from my phone storage skipping and popping. I'm probably being picky but I can't abide any imperfections in my music. I'm an ex-musician and music is my life.

Anyway I restored my backup for a couple days. Now I have a little time for playing with this new rom so I flashed it again. So far the music sounds good and there's no lag. I'll keep tabs on how it sounds and if I do something that causes it to act up again maybe I can remove it. It's worth a try. I want this to work. I like this rom.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] lacoursiere18:
Were you charging your phone at the same time? I remember someone else stating this issue and said he was doing that and that is what was causing it..

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] stueycaster:
No I wasn't. I first noticed it while I was at work. I thought it might be due to the terrible signals I get there. But it continued during my drive home. I use a car dock and Bluetooth to listen in my car. But it still did it a little through my earphones at home. Not quite as much though. I still kinda think signals has something to do with it. I get great wifi signals at home so it's a bit perplexing to me. But so far it's doing good this morning. I'll keep you posted if anything changes.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] freddy0872:
Changeling looks wonderful sir!

Something I've noticed not sure if others are but it's weird.

In messaging if I scroll all the way to bottom or top where u would normally get the overflow coloration. I get a pretty big bold orange bar with a + sign in it kinda off centered. Not really a concern or anything but just strange Lol.

I'd screen shot it but I fail everytime. It goes away so quick and it's hard using the key combination while scrolling [emoji14]

Edit.....

So I figured I'd try again and I was able to get a screenshot.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] freddy0872:
Ah okay. I was thinking it might of been by looking at the fact u fixed some colors.

Nice work my friend!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] stueycaster:
I just thought of something. The first time I set this up one of the first things I did was set up Xposed and Wanam. Then I discovered I don't need them with this rom so I uninstalled them. Maybe that could have caused some problems?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] S0UTHPAWK1LLA:
I have had the same issue concerning stuttering music. I thought it was a bad charger and wanam so I changed everything and went stock 27. I have come to find it is a Google issue with 4.4.2. It still happens randomly when the screen turns off.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] stueycaster:
I don't understand what you mean by "Google issue with 4.4.2". I've been using a 4.4.2 rom for a few months now and never heard that before.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] S0UTHPAWK1LLA:
http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=62562

It's a issue beyond kernels and stock vs custom Roms.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] stueycaster:
That's not what's happening with mine. In the first place I have never once used Google Music. I use Poweramp. But I did try the stock Android Music Player just to check it out. It still skipped. Also out of 1480 songs only about 300 of them are FLAC. The rest are mp3. Also in the few months I used SR Remix KK I never once heard my music skip.

That can't be my issue. Besides since I started this new setup it's not skipping.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] NWNJ:
I would love to be able to add the date to the status bar if that could be added to a future update.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] golfinglenn:
I am having an issue where when I answer a call the phone defaults to speaker mode. Also, and I think it's linked to this issue, if I am using the bluetooth in the car, when a call comes in it doesn't got to bluetooth speakers, it goes to speaker on the phone. Could this be a setting somewhere?

Thanks,

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] stueycaster:
I'm pretty much all set up for the second time with this rom. This time I haven't noticed a single problem. Obviously I did something wrong the first time. I imagine it will be wicked awesome once it's finished. Good job [MENTION=5056266]lacoursiere18[/MENTION]. I'm loving it.

Just thought I'd say thanks again for picking up this project. Helps me keep this phone for a tad bit longer til root and everything gets worked out for the note 4 :) awesome job so far can't wait for what's to come :D
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] NWNJ:
I too absolutely love this rom and how it made our phones live again. I was also going to go for the Note 4 until I saw the Nexus 6 coming and likely with an unlocked or unlockable bootloader for Verizon and a 6 inch screen, with Android 5.0 and all the other goodies going for it as well. I think that will be my next phone. I just can't stand being locked down.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] golfinglenn:
Disregard
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] stueycaster:
I am getting the skips in the music still. What it actually does is, about every minute to two minutes the music will pause for about a second or so. Then it starts back up. It does it whether it's charging or not, Bluetooth or Headphone and either internal or external storage. Pandora never does it.

When I flashed I chose "Clean to install a new rom" but I didn't wipe internal storage. When the updated version comes I will. I guess it could be because of that huh? Anyway I'm not trying to make any demands. I'm still happy with this rom. I just thought I should explain the details of what's happening. Thanks for this L18.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] pmsrefugee:
On another rom the Skipping problem was with the host file blocking adds. I would need to replace the host file with one from another rom. The original file had added sites that caused the Skipping. Don't know if that's what's happening here though.

New to theming, found one I liked (orange girl) , was able to change the pic from girl to another pic, but I like all the other colors. Noticed there was no brightness slider with this theme in the pull down, can that be added?

Loaded a few that had it, looked at the text file under those themes to see if there was something in there, but I can't find anything.

Thanks for the help.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dkool1:
Not an idiot...New ROMs have cuatomizations all over the place. I only knew that because I don't like the the brightness slider so that is one of the first things I remove. To each his own. Enjoy your day and this awesome ROM!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Goldie:
Here is how it works....

In alliance folder there is a file called theme.txt. This hold all the theme type entries that are changed by custom settings. When you create a theme it runs through the entries in this file, gets the value from your database and writes it to a new file. Then zips it along with any images you added as backgrounds.

Then to install one it does the same....runs through each entry in the theme zip text file and loads the value to the database then extracts the images to the currenttheme folder and finally restarts ui to apply any non instant changes.

So make any changes you like in custom settings and it will update when you save with the changes. :)
