Anyone else having crash issues with the version dated (4/24/15)? Worked fine to start but after several hours....it starts to flicker then goes just to the wallpaper. Can't open anything and even recent apps won't open. All I can do is a battery pull or restart...then about 3 minutes after that it does it again. I've tried wiping it all again and starting over...still happens. Let me know if anyone finds a fix...till them I'm back on the previous (4/12/15 version)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] nsew745:
I downloaded candy5-release.v2.1.0-20150424-OFFICIAL-quincyatt, wiped and installed using latest TWRP 2.8.3.0 with three wipes of system, cache, Dalvik cache and data. I son't use gapps. I use Amazon apps I open the browser and download Amazon Apps then I download apps I want from Amazon. . So far everything is working. I will have to do a few connect, disconnect and reconnect to make sure the bluetooth remains paired with the hands free in my vehicle. My note is my daily driver and most municipalities have laws on hands free. I pretty much only use my Note for calls and text.

One odd thing I think was reported before is on the lock screen, it reports "No service" but I can make and receive calls and text.

Daily Driver

Been using the most recent (4-24) release as my daily driver since it was released while my Note Edge is getting repaired. Functions fine, I'll list the bugs I found below, you may not have the same as me:

Bugs:

Takes awhile to shutdown and reboot (not really a big deal)

Apps take about twice as long to install (not download)

Any long-term Bluetooth connection is a no as of now, causes Bluetooth Share process to continually stop (tested using Android Wear w/ Gear Live and pairing with my Kia Soul 2010)

Infrequent random reboots

Sometimes after calls, the call will not stop, or the phone will shutdown requiring battery to be removed

Created alarms come with silent selected, not technically a bug, but would be useful to change it to initialize to an alarm tone

Call volume on max sounds terrible, dialing tones when on speakerphone are loud and obnoxious, regardless of volume levels

Again, I want to say that you may or may not experience the bugs I stated above
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] gimmeitorilltell:
No service is a know issue that we are working on. It might be upstream but we're not sure yet. [MENTION=4435460]NoSpamDan[/MENTION] has been working with the RIL trying to correct this. I'm sure he will have things sorted soon if it's device issues.

problem

ok so i have been running this rom now since the release, i love it so i will first say thank you, the problem i am having is i was getting random reboots when trying to make a call, i see this is something that has been an issue so i am not complianing, but what i am having trouble figuring out is now i seem to be stuck in a soft brick boot loop. I got into recovery factory reset cleared cache and davlik and reboot, same issue, then repeated last steps and reinstalled all of the pacages( rom, and gapps) but now all it does is soft brick. it is stuck at 2 different samsung boot screens and reboots. Plese help i am stuck. i hve tried both reflashing this rom, and reflashing the stock rom through odin to no prevail. the 2 samsung boot screens are still there and it will not boot into anything.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] gimmeitorilltell:
Have you tried doing a battery pull yet to get into recovery? I posted how to a few posts back.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] nsew745:
I have been using candy5-release.v2.1.0-20150424-OFFICIAL-quincyatt as my daily driver. I have been in and out of my vehicle numerous times.. Bluetooth has been working well except for one incident where I was having my truck washed and I was in and out of range while it was being washed. I just rebooted the phone and everything was good. When bluetooth stopped, I could not restart the service until I rebooted, but other than that the release has been pretty good.

New build HERE if someone can test this to let me know how it's working as far as the no sim card issue? Thank you in advance.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] slamious:
Not recognizing sim without being connected to Wifi.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] blitzrk:
Very early impressions, so everything might change as the ROM settles:

Same here on initial 2 boots with the SIM not working until Wifi is connected. Also, says "No Service" most of the time. Will report on bluetooth after my commute tomorrow.

One very strange (probably upstream) bug I found was that I was able to disable haptic feedback for everything except the settings button in the double pulled-down notification window. Weird!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] gimmeitorilltell:
Thanks folks that's what I was looking for. So this is pretty much the same issue as before right? I'm working on the Sim and currently have not messed with Bluetooth. Well my next build we have worked on thermals and tsens in the kernel. I'm wanting to squash this Sim issue.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] slamious:
Yes, same. Loving the 5.1 builds. Excited to know you are on the sim issue! Will be testing them as you upload them. Thanks for your hard work:)

Very thanks for simple solution, I'm just dont dare to flash it, and now everythings fine :D :good:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] pogmothoin17:
I have no problem getting into recovery but I changed the battery and now it boots? Could I have messed the other battery up somehow. There is no swelling or visual signs of problems. Any advice?

OK so I can use the phone with no problems really except the reported ones with my shot battery but the good battery I have will not boot. It does the soft brick I mentioned before. With that battery I can get into download mode but not recovery I have never seen anything like this
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] RickAugust:
I had the same issues with sim on the first few boots of the last build. However it settled and I have had no issues since. And this is my daily driver. Great job!

Is the one dated 5/3 connecting to network? Tried it earlier and couldn't make any calls
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] gimmeitorilltell:
I would say that it's connecting as [MENTION=4049566]RickAugust[/MENTION] is running the 5/3 build as his dd. I'm waiting in my Sim card to test
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] TeamAndroid14:
Delete
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] TeamAndroid14:
After testing I dont think its working, its just connecting when wifi is on, when you turn wifi off the network is still there, but it will disappear eventually and when you restart your phone when you wifi off. But im not going make this my DD because im not going to risk it. So I just rolled back to candy5 4/5 build.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] RickAugust:
It is finicky after reboot for a minute but then connects just fine for me. I did a clean install for the 5/3 build and flashed Rom and gapps at same time. Initial set up took FOREVER but did connect. Just a little incite to my flash.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] slamious:
I do a clean install flashing rom and gapps together. Initial set up was about average length. Playstore and apps work fine. Only connects to network when connected to wifi. Tried leaving it overnight and reboot several times. Tried 2 different modems (UCMD3 and stock Telus modem DTLLA2). My phone is locked to Telus. Both modems work well when connected to wifi. The Telus modem will randomly appear to connect (wifi off) for a split second then disconnect. This doesn't happen with UCMD3. Any thoughts?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] RickAugust:
I'm not sure. I would suggest manually selecting network in Mobile Networks> Network Operators> or even checking APN settings. Its odd that it works with WiFi connected though.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] slamious:
Tried both of these with no change. I agree is very odd.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] dark_phoenix:
hey guys. have any of you tried removing the sim and play with your phone for about 5-10 min. reinsert sim and then check the network issue. bcuz mine got solved by that way.

it was not working bcuz Airplane Mode is automatically switching On/Off again and again.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] slamious:
Gave it a try with no success. I have gotten the "Turn off Airplane Mode" message a couple of times when I try to call out. Other than that, there's been no indication of Airplane Mode being on.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] passthrux:
Is there a stable version?

I'm running the version dated 5/3...I keep having apps close out on me continually. Is there a stable version of this ROM that doesn't close out my apps? Its seems like maybe the apps cache/memory is clearing and causing the app to close out.

Why has the speakerphone echo problem not been fixed yet? I want to use these newer customs roms but every single one has this problem.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] SpiderNhan:
I have this problem with my Note running both Carbon ROM 4.4.4 and the 5/03 Candy 5 build. Google Play Music, Viper4Android, BeyondPod, Blue Light Filter and any background app will close if I start using another app like Gmail or Chrome. I kind of circumvent this issue by using Opera Mini as my browser but lately it hasn't been opening.

Also been getting random reboots while the phone just sits there.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Sloogle_Flugelmann:
It's not just on this ROM in particular. Any rom 4.2 and above with the new CM kernel have it. I know its not just mine cause I tried it on 2 different notes and both do the same thing. Plus there post from months ago about it and other people have the problem.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] developweb:
I have had speakerphone echo problems with all CM based ROMs. A few have minimized it to be acceptable for daily use though somewhat annoying for people on the receiving end of a call. I compromise on every ROM I install. Call quality vs custom features vs hardware compatibility vs speed and fluidity. That's why I keep a 32gb external SD card onboard with backups of several ROMs with different features I can use as needed. Appreciate all the good work that went into all of them.

Randomly drops off the network and stays off indefinately . After a reboot it takes maybe 30 seconds or so before it connects. When it first connects it seems to flicker off and on rapidly about 6 or 7 times then stays on constant.

I downloaded and installed candy5-release.v2.5.2-20150517-OFFICIAL-quincyatt.zip. No file manager. The browser keeps crashing and goes back to the home screen. I managed to get ES File Explorer downloaded. I have an apk file for Firefox. All is good at the moment. I haven't tried the bluetooth yet.

Update: Used bluetooth connection with Ford Sync yesterday. All worked well with my Ford Sync. I was in and out of my truck several times. It connected each time.

Other than the initial setup, the release has worked well. I use it mainly for phone calls, texting, contacts management and camera.

After 2 days rom is running great. I think the disconnects are only when I enter an area with a weak or no signal. Still requires a reboot to reconnect when it happens.

Went the entire day and with no problems. Disconnected once at work where I know has a weak signal but it reconnected on it's own after about a minute. No reboots or app closes and no lags. Only minor problem Swift Keyboard always crashes when I go to use it however it always starts back up right away and works fine. Battery life could be better but I can say the same about most of the roms I've tried.

I always install the pico version cuz I don't use most of the Gapps, so I do like to install what I like from Play Store

For the sim card, I'll try to get a normal one, cuz everyone I know is using mini-sim card

Also, I see battery drain (I don't use the phone for 10sec and it drops from 75% to 66%)!

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] TeamAndroid14:
Flash rom and gapps and reboot. If you flash rom and boot, I dont think it will take you to setup, because it needs google playstore to restore all your apps, and sync other stuff. Make sure you're using twrp 2.8.0.0 and up or cwm

I hope it will survive till I get to the states and get my OnePlus from my friend :p

Also, do I need to enable Root from (Developer options>Root access>Apps and ADB) to get Root access or what?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] TeamAndroid14:
NP :). You should invest in anker batteries, cheap and reliable and 1 year warranty. (if you're making this your daily phone)

I dont think you can enable nav bar, im using and gravitybox, but you need xposed framework.
