Idk but I think less updates would be better. I remember back in the days when this rom easy gets 7h sot with good performance . I was impressed, that a aosp/cm rom was able to almost kill all tw rom in term of battery. But now it's too much drain if I'm lucky I reach 4h sot with my use. That's ~40% battery loss from v12 to 16. Maybe "we" should focus more important "specs" and leave all how it is as long all is good just small updates with bug fixes would be nice. It's like what Samsung is doing... First they did something good we all appreciated. No they're getting worse and removing all the good specs we loved. Sometimes less is more. It's my opinion, just saying, I'm not attacking anyone, just giving my thoughts.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] temasek:
7-8 hrs SOT is still easily achievable for me.

I provide updates, you decide if u want to update. If no, just move on. It's that simple.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] pshooner:
I would suggest using the latest builds (i.e. TWRP 2.8.7.0, temasek 16.3 / CM 12.1). Functionalities as well as bug fixes are added periodically, so having the latest is probably best. Also, converting /system, /data/media, /data and /cache to f2fs can also speed up our beast... :)
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] TeddyKhalifa:
Always this "move on" if someone don't always say positive things about the rom. U still getting 7/8h ? Go for u. it would be more helpful to help those people who are not getting this 7/8h sot instant of saying move on. People should be more willing to help each other and not the opposite. You could tell which kernel ur using which settings if ur using extra apps for battery or any mods etc. That would help me and alot of other people who don't get as good battery as u.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] temasek:
There's nothing negative about your post or mine. It's just a fact. If u dislike freq updates then don't update. Just that simple. Got it?
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] TeddyKhalifa:
Again, no help.

[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Wam7:
The problem for you is that these things have already been covered and for people like yourself that come 'late' to a ROM thread then there is a lot of catching up to do. I have a pretty good idea how Temasek gets 7-8 hrs SOT (I get similar) but that's because I've spent the time reading through this thread.

There is a tacit understanding amongst seasoned ROM flashers to new users which is that if you don't have time or inclination to do some reading/research then just stay with stock. I will give you some advice to achieve maximum SOT time.

1. Get a new official Samsung battery (there are lots of plausible fakes out there so it needs to be from Samsung in an official Samsung box)

2. Use the Fauxclock settings in the opening post.

3. I use Amplify and Greenify, though I understand Temasek no longer uses either one or both.

Hope that helps and please stop hassling our ROM creator. Too many people appreciate the time and efforts he puts in him to see him harangued by petulant users.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Grantius:

Color picker.

I'm hesitating to touch this subject but ok I'll try to get it done. In most cases all should be well but for some dpi it's not. So it's kinda tough.

No promises
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Spyritus:
Happens to me as well, still on V16.2

Also, when I say "Ok Google" or I touch the search bar, the phone switches to landscape mode for a sec, but it may be related to my launcher. I'm using Apex.

It's also happening with the stock mail app but no issue with Outlook. If that helps..
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] TeddyKhalifa:
ThankU. First one who understood what's about and just tried to help. Maybe I should buy a new battery. Didn't think about that because my battery is just 8-9 mouth old.

What a painful series of flashes to convert to f2fs (I did a lot of mistakes, so mea culpa).

But, after a first mistake (I did backup in internal memory, so I lost it) I decided to format cache, data and system to f2fs, and then do a clean install. Procedure went right, but bootloop on boot animation (20 min, and I tried 2 times).

So is do a clean install with f2fs impossible?

And, more important (for me),

I'm used formatting system manually on each dirty flash. Now that I'm on f2fs, will everything go well, or I will stuck in bootloop?

[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] iketil:
Dirty flashed 16.3 from 15.8 and got a bootloop. Tried to reflash 15.8 and still got bootloops. Then I wiped the ROM and started from scratch again (16.3 + the little patch)

Everything worked great until I put temaseks fauxclock settings in to the fauxclock app. Then I got the bootloop again and cant get rid of it.

I think the bootloop is caused by adjusting some settings in fauxclock.

Guess I will do another clean install and dont touch the fauxclock app, for now.

Does anybody else who uses fauxclock (faux123) have bootloops?

EDIT:

Now I have cleaned installed again and not used faux 123. Still bootloops :(

Thanks for the info. Using this method I was able to convert my data partition to f2fs, but unfortunately was unable to restore my backed up 16.2 because the backup was ext4. Then tried to clean flash 16.3 but it failed so I had to convert all back to ext4 and restore my 16.2 backup. hltespr
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Sirklip:
When I converted my phone to f2fs

I updated my twrp to 2.8.7.0

I then converted system + data + cache. Using the methods previously described.

Concerning /data/media

Media is a subdirectory of data and will therefore be converted when you convert data.

Clean installed 16.2

And restored all my apps and settings using titanium backup.

I am now a few days in and am exceedingly happy.

Persevere guys, the benefits are well worth it.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] allroy1975:
did you see my post about dropping back to twrp 2.8.1.0? I did that and was able to change data to f2fs. Then I just reflashed 2.8.7.0 and installed 16.3, restored my TB taken before all the chaos and everything is good.

Give it a shot.

Good luck.

Anyone flashed Xposed V73 zip ?
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Wam7:
That's exactly the way I did it. You can restore your settings like the ones in 'Temasek spare parts' and 'Notifications etc in Titanium backup by restoring "Settings Storage (SETTINGS BLUETOOTH)" which does more than just bluetooth stuff as suggested in the name.

F2FS does really make things feel smoother and snappier.

Hi there, guys! Looong time away! :(

Does anyone else experiencing Twitter app heads up notifications quickly disappearing when notifications arrive? Don't know if it's a Twitter app related bug or something system related. Anyway, it doesn't happen with any other app.

Another thing, about governors now. I'm trying to find one that kills (or at least really attenuates) some slowdowns and stuttering that randomly occur. If I overclock CPU I can get rid of it at the most part of the time, but device becomes pretty hot and battery drains. I'm finding out that ondemand really reduces stuttering when compared to interactive (that I was using for long time, based on Temasek settings). Does anyone know if there's a specific governor that would really kill stuttering? (Of course, excluding performance one! :p)

Note: ROM is superb and so fast! Also, fluid. What I mean by stuttering is that well known little lags that we, Android users, know a lot, mainly after a long time without a full wipe and lots of apps installed.

Edit:

After using ondemand for some minutes I got two freezes followed by hard reboot while typing here on XDA, running Chrome latest stable version and SwiftKey. Don't know if it has something to do, but I think it would be important to notice. Also, I'm noticing it also faces some stuttering here ND there.

By the way, on the past days I was running CPU at 2803200 and GPU at 450, while governor set to interactive. Also, I enabled Force GPU Rendering to check if that would help, giving a smoother experience, but it didn't completely kill random stuttering and, of course, made my device pretty hot sometimes.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] SuperSmashedBro:
Yeah it works great
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Journyman16:
I've missed updates before this but once the bug bites it is difficult NOT to try the new one. But that's why there are nandroid backups - if the new version gives poor results, go back a step.

AFAIK Tema always uses his kernel and his settings are at the start of the thread - they have been there for some months.

For those with bootloops, I also dirtied over 16.2 and no issues. Runs nicely in fact. Just did the mini-update because others seem to have an issue with it and phone still copacetic.

I'd suggest do a clean flash and take it step by step. I don't use a lot of apps (have about 80 frozen) so maybe it's something you have installed causing issues? Also OC and UV can be problematic.

[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Caillin:
Hey viniciusrsouza, I have a very fluid experience everywhere when using 2.7Ghz profile with Arteractive governer. It looks as though you're banging your head against the wall mostly with the stutter in chrome, and if you change the "Max Tiles For Interest Area" to 512Mb as per these instructions: http://lifehacker.com/speed-up-chrome-for-android-with-this-settings-tweak-1555623190 then it completely eliminates any stutter in chrome. This will essentially force chrome to use 512Mb of memory for caching pages, and makes a massive difference.

Let me know how you go with it.

[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] 3XTR3M1ST:
Thank you.

What about this file here? Is it of any use? If it is, do I have to convert to f2fs before I flash it? What is the flash sequence? (Kernel>ROM>GAPPS)?

[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Sirklip:
[MENTION=3814720]3XTR3M1ST[/MENTION]

No f2fs is not a requirement, just flash the rom

The kernel is incorporated in the rom

Just install the Rom and then GAPPS and then SuperSU,

You can find them all in the first few posts

[MENTION=383668]Caillin[/MENTION]

Thanks for that little tip, I see a difference already
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] viniciusrsouza:
Thanks for the reply and tip!

Actually, I also experience some stuttering on Chrome, like when opening tab os alternating apps, but it's not my big deal. The stuttering I was referring most was those like when scrolling Play Store app interfaces, or sometimes when opening albums in Play Music app and others user interface transitions and animations elsewhere.

What I'm noticing for sure is that setting CPU maximum to 2803200 really reduces these random lags/stuttering, but it doesn't kill them definitely. Also, noticed that GPU configured to 450 doesn't make any difference. And this is also true for the Force GPU Rendering under Developer Settings.

By the way, what's the maximum CPU overclock on recent builds?
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] brakatz:
Wifi crashing

Fix this first

1- wifi and bluetooth are not friends if both in use

1- if you at home wifi and connect to bluetooth headset/bluetooth adapter/ bluetooth speaker. Wifi will crash, what happens is Wifi disconnects, icon disappear for 5 seconds. What happens then is wifi will reconnect. It will stay for 5 seconds then crash again. It will connect and crash until you disconnect the bluetooth device. I dont think the bluetooth just being enabled will cause wifi to crash. In this case it has to be connected to a device in order to affect wifi connectivity.

Side note:

If wifi signal is 50% or less, wifi will crash

If wifi signal is 80% or more, wifi wont crash. What will happen is cut your data speed by 70%.

Tested on

-senheiser bluetooth headphones

-jbl charge bluetooth speaker

-dlink bluetooth adapter

Cellular and bluetooth are good friends no problem there.

[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] viniciusrsouza:

---------- Post added at 12:44 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:39 AM ----------

So... Tema did an update on this. I would suggest when he does a 'little' fix it means you should pay attention. i.e. when there is a release and a fix, best bet is if you plan to jump a version, do it Clean. Or else follow the steps.

When in doubt, save and clean flash. THEN talk about issues already addressed.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] drew071:
I didn't understand your comment but I'm a seasoned temasek flasher and know how the increments work and how to flash them. This isn't an isolated case. Tema is aware as people on twitter are having the same issue.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Protium:
Just a heads up to anyone having bad battery. I had terrible battery with this or any cm based rom since I switched from touch wiz kitkat. I switched to a custom lollipop touch wiz rom just to make sure it wasn't my battery being over a year old already. On lollipop touch wiz, battery was great again. I then flashed POF boot loader and modem from lollipop, tried temasek again, battery was and has been great again. This helped for me, just a recommendation.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] verrix:
Hi [MENTION=2180063]Protium[/MENTION], I have bad battery too (the performance in this rom is amazing, but with samsung's original rom I had more battery life, just like you).

Can you share the steps you took to flash boot loader and modem from lollipop?

How much did battery life improve? I now get MAX. 4 hr of screen time :( (and I use greenify). You?

Thanks!
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] viniciusrsouza:
I know maybe it's early to judge this, since you just full wiped and, of course, your device is simply flying, but did you notice F2FS making difference in terms of smoothness in transitions and animations in general? In other words, did it help killing Android random stuttering that we are used to since ever?

Note: Guys, I know and recognize the ROM is perfectly fast, incredible and makes our devices something completely different from what they were when running stock in a looong distant time. What I'm trying to fight is some lags and stuttering that Android itself has in every device when scrolling and on some animations and transitions.

Oh! Got it!

So maybe we can assume 2726400 is the maximum recommend not harmful value?
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] svbarbosa:
Did any of you notice that the speed goes all the way up to 2.8GHz no matter the top speed you have set.

I tried with both interactive and arteractive governors. When you start running Antutu benchmarks in sequence it always uses 2.8GHz.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Buslova:
So maybe we can assume 2726400 is the maximum recommend not harmful value?[/QUOTE]

Actually, I believe he runs at 2.2 (as do i actually) and he stated there were deminishing returns for anything above it while inversely increasing battery usage per step. I've noticed similar things in my limited tests and other things I've read which is why I stay around 2.2 which seems to be plenty smooth for me and offers great battery performance.

On a humorous note, Tema called 2.8 an "epenis" mode for those who focus on benchmarking and needing to compare those scores. LoL
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] viniciusrsouza:
Oh, sorry. Just one more thing!

Isn't arteractive governor supposed to reduce power and increase battery life in the cost of performance? So, even increasing CPU speed, isn't this contradictory? :p

My preliminar test here indicates some stuttering here and there with this combination. The best results in terms of a fluid and smooth usage are with interactive at 2.8 (although not recommended and device becoming hotter) and ondemand, although it made my device freeze followed by reboot twice yesterday, even when not overclocked.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] verrix:
Am I the only one here that underclocked my note to have better battery life? :laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh:
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Buslova:
I honestly hadn't run antutu in a while but just ran it while set at my usual 2.2, using intelliactive governer. It never went above that max 2.2 i had set.

What is POF bootloader? My battery is poor too. Thanks for your help.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] viniciusrsouza:
First of all. Don't know why, but I simply can't use ondemand governor without facing freeze followed by random reboot when typing a reply here using Chrome and SwiftKey. There is no freeze in other apps, but always here when typing a reply. So weird! I just lost everything I was typing and after my device rebooted the governor was back to interactive again, so I even didn't need to change it by myself.

Anyway, what I was about to ask is if anyone here who is running custom DPI and latest Google App version (released a few days ago) have a bug in the G icon like this when searching:

People at Android Police are not experiencing this, even on custom DPI, so I can't figure out what's causing this.
