GSM here.

This issue is pretty weird, since there are multiple reports. Some people can call normally (even another Brazilian user from Rio also, but his carriers is Vivo, not Claro), others only when adding country code before emergency number itself, other can't at all (our case).

The "1911" trick doesn't work for you?

Anyway, I'm also running stock TouchWiz for the moment. First because I wanted to update firmware and also because I'm facing an issue when using Easy Voice Recorder and it seems to be something related to "stock CyanogenMod". Probably it's also happening on other AOSP ROMs, but unfortunately I'm completely out of time to test others. since I used my weekend free time to go back to stock.

Another topic...

When I was at 11.7 build I noticed that heads up graphic effect was different from the past. I think it would be great if there's an option to choose between this new and the old one, since the previous effect was more elegant and minimalist in my opinion. This new heads up effect over itself is a little bit too extravagant on minimalist setups.

Oh, and also, I noticed some apps were not "collapsing" correctly when recent apps button was touched. For example, Chrome. It's animation effect when minimizing to preview mode is a little bit strange. It's bigger than what it should be and suddenly it goes to the normal size. (Yes, I can't explain it the way I would like... :() Anyone else noticed this or it was only with me?

Finally, as I said, even sadly being on stock TouchWiz for some time, I will keep reading this thread and follow development, since this is by far the best ROM since ever!

using V11.7, after setting as Temasek's seting recommendation, battery life is amaaaaaaaazing, plugged off my phone 1am at 88%, still got 88% at 8am :), incredible !!!!
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] EarlZ:
4hrs idle and I lost 3% batter life, no connections made and nothing on the battery view. Only rom installed so far coz im checking if the messaging/contacts and dialer will still FC but so far they havent with 11.8 I suppose its the battery requiring calibration ?
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Journyman16:
I use fitbit flex & have zero problem; app is the same. So it's not the ROM. :D
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] viniciusrsouza:
[MENTION=6430012]zupodaniel[/MENTION], are you still running Temasek builds? If yes, which version? And you continue to be able to call 190 normally?

[MENTION=2476191]GavinMazey[/MENTION] [MENTION=5442013]CHERRY63[/MENTION], it seems N9005XXEGBNL8 baseband can call emergency number normally. [MENTION=4813670]Journyman16[/MENTION] said some time ago that this one is from Poland.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] aarick:
Thanks for checking. Very strange as I could not get it to work. I did a full wipe, clean install and also on default kernel.

Oh well, have moved on to Flex OS for the time being as that's not causing any issue for me.

For those interested, I managed to fix Exchange Services crashing issue by replacing it with the one from Paranoid Android rom. Seems like the issue exist in all CM12.1 roms from my testing thus far.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] ajm786:
[MENTION=2332422]temasek[/MENTION], I know that I'm on a Note 4, but I'm still on this ROM. :D

The latest Google Play Services are having crash issues left and right. I know that you said on Twitter not to update to the latest Google Play Services, but we have no choice, as it auto updates even if we try not to make it.

According to this thread, it looks like a problem with certain ROMs, as it seems to work fine with stock.

http://xdaforums.com/nexus-6/general/google-play-services-force-close-temp-t3115077

Do you know of any workarounds where we can force Play Services NOT to update, or maybe something in the ROM needs to be fixed?

Thanks as always!
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] temasek:
Try

1. Disable auto update in play store.

2. Turn on airplane mode, boot to recovery, wipe system, flash rom, flash cm gapps which has the older play services 7.3, boot back to system and wait abit before turning off airplane mode.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] ajm786:
I should have mentioned that I did EXACTLY , word for word, those two things. :( I still have my nandroid backup of 11.5, which has Play Services 7.3.xx and it works perfectly, but after a short time, it gets auto updated, no matter what I do.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] temasek:
Duh!

Blame Google!

My hlte haven't auto update to 7.5 series play services yet. It is still in version 7.3
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] ajm786:
I know, and I'm sure this is their fault. Again.

Make sure you get a nandroid, because once yours gets updated, you're going to get "Play Services has stopped" all over the place. When I look at the logcats, it's ALWAYS because something with location services.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] temasek:
AFAIK from what I read it's affecting on aosp ROMs. And with that I believe soon cm devs own devices also will have this issue and they hopefully will think of a workaround or solution.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] ajm786:
Roger that. Thanks for always being there for me/us!
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] vidwhal:
Ahhh. I was just grabbing some logcats for this Google Play Services crash issue but from the sounds of the discussion is definitely a google related update problem. I'll still post the logcats because I'm Italian and don't like to waste :)
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] BillGoss:
One of the joys of not being in the US - updates come to us a lot later. I too am still on 7.3.29 as I'm in Australia.

[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] fliparsenal:
I'd appreciate it if you can point me in the right direction.

I'm also having vide recording issues, it's pretty choppy and slow.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] temasek:
Cross fingers that the issue will be resolved before we get the play services auto update.

Lol :)
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] BillGoss:
My input on dialling emergency numbers...

I'm in Australia (+61), so the number is 000.

Dialing 000 from the lock screen/emergency call or the phone app after unlocking shows "dialling" but never connects and it also won't hang up, requiring a reboot.

Dialling 1000 or 61000 or +61000 from the lock screen/emergency call gives a message that these are not valid emergency numbers

Dialling 1000 or 61000 from the phone app after unlocking fails to connect but doesn't require a reboot.

Dialing +61000 from the phone app after unlocking *works*

I also tested this with an NH4 and OC3 bootloader+modem and they both behave the same.

Conclusion: don't dial emergency numbers from the lock screen; use the phone app after unlocking the screen and enter +(country code)(country emergency number)

[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Journyman16:
I have to take this back - after a couple of reboots the GP Services FC came back and a while later I got the AOSP Keyboard one as well. I meant to check but forgot, to see if Google had updated the sucker on me. So I have gone back to the Calkulin fix from the OPO thread I linked earlier - not only is it the only way I have been able to prevent the FC's, it doesn't seem to update itself either.

I'm using the Lollipop v7.3.29 (430) one

Note it doesn't seem to resolve the AOSP Keybd issue...

---------- Post added at 04:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:18 PM ----------

And it isn't relevant on my phone at least - the version of webview shown on github link IS the one in 11.8
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] chazey2:
I've tried all the latest new releases of GPS, the only sure answer at the moment to fix it is stay on 7.3.29 and turn off auto update of pay store and keep fingers crossed lol
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Gungahlin Al:
But how do you turn off Play Store updates? I can't find a setting anywhere.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] chazey2:
Play store - settings - turn off auto updates.

Not 100% sure if that will stop GPS updating as well, but so far so good.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Gungahlin Al:
Yeah sorry that's "Do not auto-update apps".

Pretty sure it doesn't refer to the Play Store itself. I always have that one turned off and Play Store still gets updates regardless.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Journyman16:
With the linked version, I don't need to turn off auto-update by looks of things - I've had 8 or 9 apps update over the past few hours and GP Services is still 7.3.29... :D
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] chazey2:
Yeah it's the google play services we need to stop updating, pretty sure it's separate from the play store, but not totally sure. Maybe as in UK just being lucky with slow google updates!!
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Gungahlin Al:
Yeah I have no idea how Temasek reckons he has stopped his updating. There's no setting anywhere that I can see to stop it.

I used PA GAPPS and that hasn't been updated since 18 April.

On a different topic, with stock ROM there is a way to run several USSD commands and it resets the GPS. But those USSD commands don't work with AOSP. Does anyone know if there is an alternative for AOSP please?

---------- Post added at 08:00 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:28 AM ----------

OK try this to get rid of Play Services Force Closes:

Go to the ROM Settings > Apps > swipe right to All > scroll to Google Play Services (NB: NOT Play Store)

Wait for the sizes to calculate, then select the top right button (it changes name - disable/deactivate/something like that).

It asks if you want to uninstall updates and go back to the factory version. Yes.

When it has finished, back out then reboot.

I have gone from continuous (to the point of being unable to use the phone) to not one error since.

Let me know how you go.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] EarlZ:
I just got the FC or "Messages has unfortunately stopped" for the first time again in 24hrs. I dont understand what is causing this. I made a clean install..

EDIT:

My signal bar shows the signal strength and ! if I have mobile data off, what does that ! mean? I can make phone calls and sms. If I turn on mobile data it goes away and changes to LTE also the lock screen shows No Service - Smart ( smart being my carrier name ) Im not sure why it showing no service. Anyway to fix ?
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] chazey2:
Thanks mate, think that will just put you back to factory setting then you'll find it'll update is self over time. I'm gonna hold on 7.3.29 as long as I can. Hopefully a work around will be found before it updates is self.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] stavca:
what issues do you guys have with the latest GPServices?? I don't face them on v11.8 with GPS 7.5.71, the only issue was System UI fc when rotating to landscape and back but reboot solved it (may be the theme issue), battery life is great also

for location I have GPS only - this is enough for me

I still have micro PA gapps from 18-04 and I just updated GP Store and Services via apks from apkmirror...
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] danieljamie:
Hi. Could you give more information as to how you installed it?

I was on a Samsung ROM and my fitbit app and tracker were synced on there.

Then I wiped everything to install temasek rom.

Then I restored the fitbit app and data. It force closes when it syncs with tracker.

I tried wiping data for fitbit app and logging in again, still force close.

I'm not sure what else I can do?

Install from play store as fresh?

Also, I had the Google play services force close, I tried to install the older version and was still getting force closes :/ not really the experience I was hoping for, as a huge temasek fan :(

[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Gungahlin Al:
I play Ingress, so accurate GPS is critical for me. But it has been borked for months - since the stock upgrade to Kit Kat I believe actually. I had a brief period with this ROM on version 9.5 that was pretty good, then it went away again. It can take me 10 minutes to get a lock, and then I lose it really quickly too. I've tried everything, from cleaning and adjusting the antenna contacts, to setting the region via the "Faster GPS" app. I'm waiting for a replacement midframe to come from China to replace the antennas themselves. The other thing I'm considering is flashing the radio/modem bits from Jellybean 4.3 to see if that helps.

There is a routine on XDA to run using USSD commands via the dialler app and that resets the modem so it runs well for a while. But it doesn't work on the AOSP dialler, and it doesn't matter how many times I've asked here, no-one replies. Temasek reckons it is a Touchwiz thing but doesn't know of an alternative for AOSP either.

I run Mini PA GAPPS from 18 April too, plus TWRP recovery. I've run almost every Temasek version since 1.3 I think.

BTW, still no FCs for Play Services since I did the above change a few hours ago.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] EarlZ:
I noticed with 11.8 that the clock speed is at 2.8Ghz as reported by faux app it could be a false detection but I chaned it to 2.26Ghz and set on boot.

How do I get like a high resolution contacts picture, its like super pixelated under the dialer.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] vanisleguy1976:
I'm having the same problem with my fitbit app. Unfortunately, it's a game changer for me. I've tried everything I can think of and there is no way I can get the app to not FC on me.

It worked fine up till 9.4, but since CM12.1, I've had no luck. Tried it on multiple other ROMs including the official CM12.1, stock LP, and a few others. Tema's is the only ROM that won't work with the fitbit app.

---------- Post added at 07:28 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:21 AM ----------

Journyman16, just curious, which GAAPS package did you flash? I can't see that affecting the fitbit app... But you never know! Lol
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] viniciusrsouza:
On BOB1 I couldn't call even adding "+" at the beginning. I'm almost sure about this.

About all these latest info about Google Play Services issue I'm really afraid, since I'm running stock now and when I come back I will, of course, he full wiped and will need to install it's latest version. By the way, there's nothing compared to Temasek ROMs. Point.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] zetlorf:
For me (Europe 112) isn't working in no way.

Can someone check if with NBL8 modem is working the emergency number?

I have to go back to stock rom for this issue, i really miss CM12 roms, but at least i have the best battery life. :P
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] deejayburnout:
clean installed 11.8 and google play services issue went, but still have camera issue. I did managed to find a camera app on google play that worked so happy.

Battery life has been simply awesome. lost about 3% overnight.

good work as usual Tamasek. :highfive:
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] danieljamie:
Hmm, so it works on CM12.1 but not on latest temasek rom?

I hope [MENTION=2332422]temasek[/MENTION] can look at the logcat I added to the bug report spreadsheet. Perhaps there is a bluetooth issue or something.

It is a dealbreaker for me. I had to revert to my sluggish Samsung rom as it works on there, although I think it's only 5.0 and not 5.1.

Not sure what else I can provide other than a logcat..

I struggled getting a logcat as I wasn't sure which log level is needed and do I start aLogcat and then leave that app and open the fitbit app?

I want to help temasek help us. Wish I could get a CM based rom :(

True, but you can use sygics standalone speed cams with it?

For me sometimes there are actually alerts about cams when I use Here Maps. Other times it is silence. I have not tried sygics standalone app for that, you may try free trial which is for one week I think. In description they say that it can be used with other apps e.g. google maps..
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] kenny1991:
Looks like at least 7 hours SoT.

YouTube all the way on and sound at 85 percent. Pretty good if not best you ask me. With normal use it may even be doubled SoT. Despite original battery.

I have now got a new battery and will test it coming days after some full charges.

Love this Rom

This is my 5th Android phone and I have modded all of them until my Note 3. Because of Knox (which I Do NOT like) I waited until it was out of warranty to start looking for a custom rom. I did research and watched videos and finally found this one. Such great work. I am still learning how to use all of the little extras but I will figure them out. I liked the stock lollipop but Samsung or sprint left out things like guest user. Now I am happy. Now to find out how to add screens. Thanks again.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] viniciusrsouza:
I'm also using a stock based ROM and must say my battery performance isn't the same from Temasek builds. Maybe because the one I'm using installed a CSC from Poland and it made my signal performance so poor.

I'm feeling I will have to live without emergency call and go back urgently to Temasek builds. Can't get used to stock anymore.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Journyman16:
I've found restore Data into a new ROM seems problematic. Sometimes it works fine, other times it seems to bring issues. And that's with similar ROM's - e.g.a Temasek version change where he went to a Linaro build. For going from a custom stock-based ROM to CM I would wipe everything except microSD card, build the ROM/GApps, then flash my TiBu zip file & use that to restore ONLY Apps.

I use the PA Reborn GApps - Stock version 18/4 and a .gapps-config file in the GApps folder to control what gets installed.

I have an export VCF on extSD for my contacts, I have B/ups for calls and SMS/MMS using Call logs Backup and Restore and SMS B&R and I have my TiBu backups on extSD. I also have my personal Ringtones and Notifications sitting in a folder on extSD with a .nomedia text file to stop them listing in Media, my Viper4 profile and AutomateIt rules on extSD - I simply copy them over to IntSD once the ROM is set up.

So, for yours I would redo the Tema build but this time wipe Internal SD as well.

For fitbit, given you have an issue, if it plays up once you have done the above, unintall from Play and reinstall it.

For GP Services, try using THIS ONE - I am not sure what he did to Mod it but it works with no FC's AND it has yet to update itself, even though I have had numerous updates of other apps.

Hope that helps... :D

---------- Post added at 12:03 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:02 PM ----------

I tried it and might again since their helpdesk has actually been helpful. Only real issue I had was how to use it effectively... (as in no FC's etc)

---------- Post added at 12:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:03 PM ----------

Did you try getting the specific gps.conf for your region? Not positive this is the one I DL'd but looks the same - you could check back a few pages where I posted the link...
