I don't know, because I never had this issue. I have tested wep, wpa and wpa2 networks without any problem.

If the wifi problem in beta4 which some users reported was caused by selinux it should be fixed in beta5.

To update you need to flash the rom +gapps and not only the kernel

KSM and Zram ASSETS WITH THE GPS CAPTE FASTER THE SATELLITES AND RECEPTION IS MUCH BETTER FOR WHAT IT IS NOT ACTIVATE IN THE OFFICE OF ROM?

THE KSM and Zram AND IT POSSIBLE TO INSTALL IN ANOTHER ROM D ANOTHER PHONE OR IS CLEAN YOUR ROM TO YOU ?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] bauner:
zram and ksm are disabled by default because they are causing higher cpu load and higer battery drain. It can give you more usable ram, but this will not change anything on gps reception.

On other roms the kernel needs support for zram and ksm before the zip files will do anything

SD cards

There aren't many references to high capacity sd cards in this thread, so this is just to let you all know that Beta 5 is working well with my 128GB Sandisk Ultra card. I've just done an Online Nandroid Backup and Titanium Backup to it and neither of them complained.

Many thanks for all your hard work Bauner.

Just to share, I'd upgraded to B5 kernel and main, plus the KSM/ZRAM zip.

My Google libraries stopped working immediately after reboot.

In the end I had to do a factory reset and reinstall B5 w/o KSM/ZRAM.

Will try the KSM/ZRAM zip again on the weekend, heh.:D

Freezes are a problem which plague me since Beanstalk and Dirty Unicorns.

For much time I have collected logcats but nothing relevant was in there.

I have reduced max frequency to 1200 and still got freeze (it happens ALWAYS when using apps, but never in a reproducible way). Now I am trying 200-1400mHz but as I got them with Raw too, which first cpu step is 200, I don't think that's the issue.

So I wonder... where to inquiry? On RAM? It happens anyway while using the phone so it looks like not a SoD problem (unless CPU decides to go Deep Sleep while being used, who knows)

Just to confirm, do you encounter freezes also when phone is plugged to AC or computer?

Ahem... you should tell us which bugs you are encountering... Some logcats would help pinpointing and fixing issues.

Remember XDA is a development forum first of all.

---------- Post added at 09:22 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:17 AM ----------

Try again while keeping your phone plugged to power Does it happen still? (I am getting a theory about freezes...)

Multi-User disabled and other issues

Hi Bauner,

Any reason why Multi User has been disabled, I really liked using this feature.

Also I have a question for you:

If I make any "User" apps as "System" apps, and then I flash a upgrade of the ROM, then it overwrites the "System" apps that I have created. Anyway, I can avoid the same. Would removing the "format system partition" command in the update-script do the trick for me?

Thanks a lot for your hard work. Can't thank you enough for keeping our beloved Galaxy Note update on Android Lollipop.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] ROHAN_MEH99:

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] bauner:
For multiuser we would need an emulated internal storage to work correctly

https://source.android.com/devices/storage/

It would work work if you remove the "format system partition" command from the updater-script. But this is not a good idea, because it would left over old not more used (and possible conflicting) system files/configs

I think mr. [MENTION=799465]bauner[/MENTION] is making very good rom. Nice to use lollipop on our little old note. For me beta 4 is very stable, more than beta 3 - on them I have freeze using keep, ogyoutube, even when use home button to open recent apps. On beta 4 recent apps is super fast and after clean install I use above stock apps only whatsapp, tapatalk, lega star wars saga game and everythink was good. After about 5 days I install more apps like antutu google maps, camera360, skype ( working without any issue), and after installing more apps rom start lagging.

So I thing more apps is killing stable working :(

Hi,

I had frequent lock ups in BETA4 and below. Turned out, that my CPU got stuck at 100MHz. I could still use ADB to see that, but the device was completely unusable. I had no chance to get the CPU back to normal speed.

Since a few days, I changed the CPU governor to pegasusq and it seems stable now.

I would be highly interested, if anyone who has lockups can change to pegasusq and tell me if the device gets more stable or doesn't change anything.

/Andreas
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] deaddrg:
Yes happens even when plugged in
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] osd_daedalus:
Thank you for your findings... I used pegasusq in the past (both stock and raw kernel), and it was even slightly worse to me :(

We still need to know what triggers that thing.

I was thinking about cpu going in deep sleep while being used, but I remember this happens to me even while charging (as a fact, even the spinning battery circle animation stops).

I also remember that adb and logcat still work, although the latter reports nothing useful about.

How do you get cpu info with adb?

Is also useful to see if all of smdk4210/4412 board (galaxy s2, s3, note2) suffer from freezes with non-factory kernels. At least we can understand if it's kernel related.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] drstefankrank:
Yes, also happened while charging or while in regular use.

You can see the current values in /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/

Changing the governor to performace or pegasusq didn't bring the CPU above 100MHz.

In my situation Android restarted the system processes and I got the Boot Animation. The animation was very slow and the system never came back to a working state. Only power cycling helps.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] Italia77:
Just a simple question,

is there any settings or app to improve the audio volume?

It happens for example when I listen the audio conversation sent by whatsapp, I put the volume to the max but it's difficult to listen when I put in speaker phone mode (when I'm driving).

THANKS
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] osd_daedalus:
I got some improvements by setting AudioFX default equalizer to Normal.

On a side note, got a freeze while posting this, so the issue appears to be indipendent by cpu frequency settings.

GPS

Perfect rom, its fast en works smooth.

GREAT WORK BAUNER.

I only experienced a gps issue, first it gets 12 satelites and a fix in 13 seconds.

After a minuut or 2 the GPS drops the fix every time en hey finds only 4 or 6 satelites.

Maybe you have al solution for this.

But further the ROM is GREAT:D:good:

GPS issue or not is keep using this rom:cool:

Use next camera. I use it several builds ago.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] Eunyx:
I'll keep that in mind. Audio FX kinda contributed to the music players' force closures by suddenly stopping, taking with it whatever player I am using, in this case Google Play Music. Just for the record, what is the LMK's threshold in this particular ROM?

My Location's disabled and the Scanning Always Available option is disabled by default, and since I have no use for both options, I keep them off all the time. I'm still getting rogue WiFi usages even under the r10 kernel.

And it seems that I am not the only one experiencing freezes/lockups. The whole system doesn't actually freeze up; just gets insanely slow. A forced restart (power button hold) is how I deal with this, but I'm looking at setting the minimum frequency to something higher, say 500Mhz. I'm currently using the PegasusQ/ROW combo of r10 with 200/1400 as CPU min/max frequencies. As for the frequency of lockup occurrence, I have observed that the stock kernel, set up like r10's settings, froze up significantly more than the r10 kernel. I'll report back if my little experiment works.

Meanwhile, a bunch of thanks and congratulations for Beta 5! Will try it as soon as I download it. Keep it up! :highfive:

[MENTION=799465]bauner[/MENTION]

I have some questions and a little request for development...

How do you compile Nightowl kernels?

I know it looks like a stupid question, but everytime I compile your kernel (the smdk4412 from your git repository), applying cyanogenmod_n7000_defconfig, not touching anything else and using the ramfs you provided me (I edited defconfig to point at that), I have a FC loop on SystemUI and device restarts, and so on.

Yesterday I was going to throw the phone out of the window... :(

Is there something I am missing?

About the "little request", can you provide me a Odin-flashable beta5 kernel, or better, a Heimdall-flashable zImage? (I can't find a way to split the boot.img!)

I am quite sick to have to switch from Linux to Windows to flash philz then beta5 kernel everytime something goes wrong, losing more than 30 minutes at each attempt...

Thank you :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] bauner:
I build the kernel togeter with the rom. I have not tested how to build it alone...

Have you also installed the modules from your new kernel? Maybe it refuses to load the old modules?

If you are flashing with heimdall you can directly use the boot.img from inside the zip file and flash it as kernel...

(if you have changed the modules you should flash the kernel zip again in the recovery after you have flashed the kernel with heimdall to get the old modules back)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] rdhoore108:
I installed this NightOwl yesterday (coming from Gingerbread, tried CM KitKat but would freeze up my Note1 many times a day). I also experienced what you described, that everything slowed to a halt, and then it rebooted by itself, and the NightOwl animation was extremely slow. Power cycle fixed it.

My second problem is extreme battery drain. Whenever I start to actually use the phone (eg. play music through bluetooth, read mails, use facebook messenger etc.), at one point my phone becomes super hot (cpu monitoring app reports 97°C and battery over 60°), and the battery drains while I'm looking at it. Closing all apps doesn't help. Even when on the charger, it discharges faster that it can charge. Only reboot helps. It stays fine as long as I don't open any apps.

Since not everyone seems to be experiencing these two issues, it must be something very specific that is triggering each one of them. I would be extremely happy if I could avoid triggering them :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] ChiaroscuroMob:
Pls link to download
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] rdhoore108:
Just to make sure: are you aware that on the Note1, GPS issues are often due to loose screws, causing bad contact with the antenna? For many months already, I had useless GPS reception even with stock Gingerbread, and then found in google that you need to remove the back cover, and check if all screws are tight. In my case, I could turn them like a quarter of a turn. I screwed them nicely tight (don't overdo it, you will break the plastic thread), and my GPS was back to life.

(PS. I have not tried navigating with this ROM yet, I only installed it yesterday.)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] bauner:
It should never go to such high temperatures!

If you can't find the reason for the heating please try a factory reset and try the rom for some time without any app installed. Then reinstall your apps (but only a few together)to find out if an app is causing your problem
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] rdhoore108:
This question was not directed to me, but maybe it's relevant for everyone installing this ROM... Is there any guide as to how the internal partitions should be formatted? And is it normal that the parted command is not available through adb shell?

I also have the cpu heating / battery drain issue, and using the camera could indeed have been a trigger, that's why I'm asking, you seem to suggest that it is related to how things are formatted.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] osd_daedalus:
Yes, I build the zip with zImage and modules, anyway the issue appear to be more than bad modules...

Well, looks like I have to checkout the entire ROM, but I have to await to reach a Wifi connection as I'm stuck on mobile connection with 15GB/month bandwidth :(

I confirm the issue on:... basically every rom. Beanstalk, DU 4.4.4, CM 10.1.3, CM11 and here.

I wonder if this happens also with a ROM based on stock Samsung 4.1.2 kernel. Can someone tell if this happens also with stock samsung kernel?

Hmm... when you just flash CM12.1, phone is in quite huge activity to build ART cache and it requires a while to "calm down", but your issue is beyond this.

Something pushes your cpu at 100%... I wonder what.

Just guessing, have you tried also to format internal SD and NOT to use external sd?

On Dirty Unicorns I had a similar issue and it was the Mediascanner service getting stuck in finding images from those apps which create tons of thumbnails like social networks. Eventually one of these images was corrupt and this was causing the service to go mad.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] bauner:
You can format the sdcard with vfat in the recovery.

exfat is working much slower and ext2/3/4 filesystems are known to have permission problems(also with the camera) but the filesystem should not be the reason for heating and battery drain.

You can use parted inside the adb shell if you are in the recovery
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] D3XT3R-00:
I don't have the problem of the camera shutting off the phone anymore, it seems to have fixed itself. The apps run very smoothly, there's no lag so thank you for that. However, there are two things to mention: battery life is worse than on Beta 3 (the standby duration was longer) and the app for recording sound is extremely bad quality, I had to download a 3rd party app to record sound.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] 2z1ck:

All that rdhoore108 wrote going on with my phone (galaxy note n7000) in recent months.

I uses CM11 latest nightly build.

I can not attach file now but my Battery Temp is up to 85° ( and its not a battery problem. CPU has higher temperature)

Before I found out I'm not alone with this problem. I was ready to buy a new phone.

Thanks... i re flashed the rom and now i'm having a problem with battery draining... i didn't install any apps(except Gapps)... i'm connected to a wifi network and now i plugged the phone to the computer and phone is charging but it's still draining :( is this a problem with rom or kernel can i flash beta 3 kernel??
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] bauner:
The beta3 kernel is nearly the same as the one from beta5. So it should not make an difference.

I don't have a high battery drain, but some users reported that the high battery drain is going back to normal after some time of usage (or some reboots?)

About freezes...

Some insights on the topic: (to be exact, this happens not only from KitKat, but since JB.)

- for a strange reason looks like it depends by number of apps installed. But how's possible that?

- May be a coincidence, but I believe 60% of freezes I get, after power cycle I have a whatsapp/fb messenger message.

What I am thinking is, it could depend by some strange interactions between push services / heartbeat. But where could be the issue then?

I'm going to try one of the stock 4.1.2 - based ROMs, then if freezes are still reproducible I'm going to retry stock 4.1.2 ROM (*shrugs*, I believe I have to restore the stock PIT in that case) and see what happens (EMMC brickbug should affect GB ROMs and not ICS/JB)

Later :)
