I am now getting use basketbuild.com and I tried the latest Candy5. So far I like the CandyOTA app but I can't download extra settings from the app... I also have some app crashes for some reasons but not as usual from the previous builds. Thanks Gimmeorilltell for making this mod :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] gimmeitorilltell:
The mod was done by our whole candy team. I'm not the only one to credit here just so everyone knows. Now the device specific mods are done by myself, [MENTION=4435460]NoSpamDan[/MENTION], and [MENTION=5795145]javelinanddart[/MENTION]
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] nsew745:
I downloaded and installed candy5-release.v2.5.3-20150602-OFFICIAL-quincyatt. I have had an unusual crash and reboot. My Note was just sitting on the armrest of my chair and rebooted. No phone call, nothing.

Bluetooth wont stay running, I had multiple events of bluetooh failing and wont stay running until I do a reboot. After that losing the connection and then retrying the connection,, bluetooth will fail. I use it for hands free in my vehicle.

I also was unable to turn off the navigation bar so I minimized it to a very small size. The navigation bar is redundant on the Note.

I cleared this one and went back to candy5-release.v2.5.2-20150517-OFFICIAL-quincyatt.

Oops, just notice candy5-release.v2.5.5-20150615-OFFICIAL-quincyatt.zip is the latest. I have downloaded and I will install this evening.

I will report back.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] javelinanddart:
CandyOTA was done mostly by [MENTION=5088242]Cuzz1369[/MENTION] and [MENTION=4678269]Flashalot[/MENTION], and they deserve recognition for their hard work on getting it working

Yes there are some issues at the moment but the fact that it even works at all is a huge testimony to the amount of time they spent

Device Specific mods, like [MENTION=4779996]gimmeitorilltell[/MENTION] said, are handled by the Candy MSM8660 Team [MENTION=4779996]gimmeitorilltell[/MENTION], [MENTION=4435460]NoSpamDan[/MENTION], and I)

However, [MENTION=4435460]NoSpamDan[/MENTION] and [MENTION=4779996]gimmeitorilltell[/MENTION] and @bryan2894 and [MENTION=4800121]Sultanxda[/MENTION] deserve the most credit for the initial bringup to LP, without them, nothing would really be working the same way it does right now (a miracle because there's ONLY the same bugs as KK, plus a few very minor ones from Lollipop and it's weirdness :p)

If anyone deserves recognition, it's them, I came in waayyyyy late (got my msm8660 phone in March 2015) and only started working on it around April and May
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] wihi48:
Thanks!

Thanks to all the developers of this ROM, I am now sticky to this xda tread XD
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] gimmeitorilltell:
HAHA it is only going to get better from here on out I'm afraid.... TWRP recovery has been updated along with F2FS being added into my next build. Now for a few other bugs.. lol Show your appreciation for F2FS & the latest TWRP recovery by thanking [MENTION=5795145]javelinanddart[/MENTION] please?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] javelinanddart:
You're afraid of it getting better?? :P

It was tough to find an F2FS backport for Linux 3.0 (because I didn't want to do it myself that day) but I found one thanks to [MENTION=4898097]arter97[/MENTION]

Then I had to redo the fstab for by-num partitions, but it finally works :victory: :good:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] nsew745:
OK, I installed candy5-release.v2.5.5-20150615. Initial testing of bluetooth connection works in my truck. I disconnected and reconnected. So far, no problem.

After installing, I noticed still no file manager.

The stock web browser crashes whenever I try to scroll. I can repeat it. I got it to work long enough to download Dolphin. It is barely usable. Works fine with Dolphin Browser and Firefox.

I tried loading gapps. It loaded everything but the Playstore, which would be the only gapp that I want.

I still can't turn off the Navigation Bar. If I swipe the keys in settings, they temporarily disappear but reappear almost immediately after getting out of setting. Since the Note has built in navigation keys, there is no need to have the Navigation bar activated, unless you are in the Department of Redundancy Department. :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] TeamAndroid14:
Thank you guys soo much, I really dont know how you guys did it, I really appreciate it :D:good:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] javelinanddart:
Thought I just explained it :)

Yes it is :)

I've been using it since it was working

It's pretty darn fast compared to ext4, it's only for data and cache though, if anyone tries it on system, you will be ignored.

You have been warned.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] gimmeitorilltell:
You have to wait until my next build for f2fs to be fully functional. Also I need to rebuild twrp and you'll need to update that as well.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] wihi48:
New TWRP? MORE UPDATES?!

Can't wait for more good stuff from Candy5! I cant belief I am saying this but I prefer installing Candy5 Roms than CyanogenMod Rom. I wonder is there a Candy5 ROM for the Samsung Galaxy ace 2? My brother is jealous :confused:

I even posted a copy thread about this ROM. (Copy thread stills links to basket build and xda)

Link: http://wihiclub.weebly.com/9762andr...amsung-galaxy-note-n7005sgh-i717-or-sgh-i717r

---------- Post added at 04:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:11 PM ----------

Can't really find much ROMS with GT-I8160 in xda. Maybe not much developers?!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] nsew745:
candy5-release.v2.5.5-20150615 is installed and appears pretty solid. I am using it as my daily driver.

if the next release comes wit a basic file manager and a way to turn off the nav bar, I would be real happy.

You guys are doing a great job!

Spoke too soon. Bluetooth share shutdown and bluetooth won't stay restarted without a reboot. This happened after I installed the latest TWRP. Any connection?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] javelinanddart:
Not the place to discuss other devices but it has cm12.1 so Candy5 isn't too hard from there.

Was hard finding a lollipop rom for the Samsung Galaxy Ace II. Now my brother will be glad. Thanks by the way :)

/data partition only 2gb

Great, thanks for providing this ROM. My i717 is rocking this rom. :D:D:D

I only face one issue at this moment, my apps are installed in /data partition; but this partition have only 2 gb and I almost can't install anything...

I see a sdcard partition using 10gb that i my use for my apps (by resizing the /data partition or something ? ) .:confused:

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks a lot.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] developweb:
The partitioning is being looked at to see if it can be adjusted AFAIK as the OP was looking for/at PIT files. Are you able to move any of your app data to sdcard in settings?

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] kurby9:
You can edit the build.prop to disable the nav bar.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] wihi48:
Is there a way to increase the data. After installing Terraria and Hearthstone and my social media apps, my space is now left 0.1 MB. Is there anyway that i can increase it? btw i have already moved most of my apps to sdcard... I need help :D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] wmehanna:
yeah i am able to move them into sdcard. I just reflashed with stock rom and I still have 2gb in data partition... There must be a way out of this :confused:

Just to clarify things, I got this phone only today (moved from a galaxy s3 that died).

Any suggestions ?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] developweb:
Check out threads in the General, android development and original android development for this device. 1.97 gb is the device memory and 10.84 gb is your internal sd. A 32 gb external sd can be added cheaply. The super everything thread is very useful too. For the most help from xda users include all info about your device (current modem, rom version,etc)

New Basket Build

To answer some questions I am still actively working on our partitions but can't seem to get my pit file to flash at all. Also I have a new build up on basket build. F2FS is fully functional with my latest version of twrp which I uploaded yesterday I believe so check that out too.

EDIT: I'm also curious if you all got the notification of the ota?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] RickAugust:
I got the notification just now.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] passthrux:
Has the app close out issue been resolved with this build?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] TeamAndroid14:
I didnt get a notification, but I checked if there was a ota updated and there was, so I downloaded it. Its soo cool lol :D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] gimmeitorilltell:
Folks something happened to my latest build on basketbuilds site so I'm uploading it again. Please make sure you have the 6/26 build. Also with the apps closing out try another launcher.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] wihi48:
GOT THE NOTIFICATION!

I got the CandyOTA notification yesterday. 1 Question, if we change launcher, app closures will decrease?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] beenkenobee:
the 'view md5' doesn't seem to work.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] passthrux:
I used a different launcher with the previous version but it still had the apps crash...think the memory is maxing and is causing the apps to close. ...wondering if there is an app built in the build that is freeing up the memory causing the apps to close
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] wihi48:
Nope...

I have lots of RAM and free space but yet my browser and some apps keep crashing. We will need to wait until the ROM is very stable than. :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] gimmeitorilltell:
I'm not sure about the crashing. We spent quite some time working on this and it was pretty well fixed on the skyrocket, hercules, and the blaze. Will check more into it tho.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] NoSpamDan:
Got the low-memory overlay value in there? Almost sounds like it went AWOL. ;)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] nsew745:
I received the notification and I proceeded with the download. It downloaded Candy5-release.vw.5.6.-20150626-OFFICIAL-quincyatt.zip. It passed the MD5 check prompt. I found it in a newly created folder CandyOTA that included the download and a new folder IntallAfterFlash that had nothing in it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] gimmeitorilltell:
You know I do have that commit HERE, Maybe I should try to revert it? I dunno but it seems better than before that commit.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] NoSpamDan:
I did try with 3/4 of that value with what I recall were decent results. Never pushed it though.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] javelinanddart:
For me the current value is fine, the stock browser is the only app I'm having problems with, so I used chrome. Granted I don't spend a lot of time with it, I use my S4 to browse the web, but the stock browser is the only one I can't multitask with. I can have a fair number of apps open without the stock browser open. Especially for a device with 1GB RAM and a Snapdragon S3 CPU.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] rambo90:
How can I disable noise suppression during the call?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] rwperkinsjr:
When I installed the update my home button no longer works. Love the ROM... Any tips? I reverted but would love to be able to use 2.5.6 if possible.

Great ROM though, I really like it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] gimmeitorilltell:
You might have to install 2.5.6 clean. no problems here with the home button. Also i added ES File explorer for those wanting it. Make sure you thank EStrongs.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] nsew745:
Downloaded candy-5-release.v2.5.6-20150626-OFFICIAL-quincyatt through the OTA app along with Gapps and Sweetner Pack, installed and I see ES file explorer. So far it runs great. No nav bar automatically showing.

I haven't yet tried the bluetooth with my Ford Sync but everything else I use is working well.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] TeamAndroid14:
I'm having music issue, when im listening to music, it doesnt play when the screen is off. Sometimes it plays when screen is off, but I dont know why it keeps doing that. Is anyone having the same issue ?. (If not, ill look for another music app, and contact the musix app developer)

Im also having boot issues, reboots 3 times a day, and the 2nd and 3rd time, it optimizes apps.

Other than those 2 issues im having, im loving your roms.

Thanks [MENTION=4779996]gimmeitorilltell[/MENTION] :D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] gimmeitorilltell:
Can you get me a log of that happening?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] nsew745:
So far so good. Seems really solid. Bluetooth to vehicle has been used multiple times and works well.

The only hitch I have experienced is I downloaded and installed a calendar tab for outlook. It installed but crashes each time I try to login. Nt a big deal as I get to it through the browser. Good ROM. It will work great as my daily driver.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] TeamAndroid14:
[MENTION=4779996]gimmeitorilltell[/MENTION] It was Kind of hard for me to try to get logcat, because I was running windows 10 technical preview. But I managed. But while I was running the logs I keep seeing red. Is there a email I can send it to you ?, because pastebin is being an arse right now. -_-
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] blazingcherub:
Could you please explain how to use f2fs? I've changed partition type of data and cache to f2fs and now twrp cannot mount them. But ROM works fine with it though. Do I need to change it to ext4 to wipe it next time when I'll need to update ROM?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] gimmeitorilltell:
After you set one partition at a time to f2fs you then need to flash a Rom that supports f2fs. That would be candy and my very latest cyanogenmod roms. All mine will soon support it tho.

Edit: twrp will read your partitions to know how they mount and will format them ext4 or f2fs, or whatever you want them to be.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] blazingcherub:
Sorry, could you please explain in details how to do that?

I use latest Candy. I've installed your latest TWRP and went into advanced wipe menu then I've chosen data partition and then chosen to change it's filesystem to f2fs then I did the same thing to cache partition. I've heard that this procedure is appliable only to these two partitions. Is it true?

Then I flashed latest Candy and it works fine.

After that when I've tried to wipe these two partitions TWRP says it cannot mount them. So in order to wipe them next time what should I do?

Thank you
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] gimmeitorilltell:
It sounds like you done things correctly with formatting one at a time. When you wipe after that twrp "should" notice the 2 partitions are set to f2fs and wipe accordingly. I'll have to do some research on the errors. Can you give me a recovery log please? Also make sure you're on my very newest twrp please? Check the md5sum with the latest one I have.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] gimmeitorilltell:
Folks we have updated our Candy5 builds to V2.8 but I'm not releasing this one yet. Something I believe upstream has caused reboots & the unit is extremely laggy. Sorry for the delay but I know you all do NOT want this build!

The rom wont install I dnt know what I'm doing wrong it keeps saying no binary file found and something else but I can't remember
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] TeamAndroid14:
Make sure you're using the new TWRP https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24052804347764061

Download the latest ron Candy5 v2.5.6 copy it to your sd.

If you did that

Flash into recovery

wipe data,system,dalvik,cache

flash rom and Gapps.

If you did all of that and it still says that, contact the developer. Sometimes this can lead to bad download. Try downloading it again and transfering it to your sd
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] rambo90:

Please do NOT quote my entire OP! Could you edit this to remove all of that? Also if you want help we need you to know exactly what the error is stating

Nice catch man, thank you! Link had been fixed! I had updated my candy threads and c&p but forgot to change the device link. Sorry for the wrong links.

Ok so my data keeps going in and out. For a couple of minutes it will say LTE then it will go out and just be blank then it will just be a exclamation mark. On stock ROM it doesnt do this as far as I know, so I don't know if its the ROM or just my device. Any help ?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] paulsonmcreilly:
Whew! I thought it was just me! I too am having my data disappear randomly. Usually switching to airplane mode and back (3 seconds or so) fixes this. But only temporarily. Anyone else seeing this in their i717??
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] nsew745:
I spoke too soon. I have had two freezes followed by a reboot. Once upon receiving a notification of a text and another after disconnecting from an incoming phone call. It also seems hard on battery life. It uses about 75% each day and I am not a heavy user.

7/15/15 I also noted that when receiving a call, the screen stays dark so I can't answer the call with a swipe. So, I went into the settings for Candy Interface under buttons and answer by pressing home key.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ohhyea1017:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] paulsonmcreilly:
Hey folks, while checking out a thread on yet another one of gimmeitorilltell's awesome lollipop ROMs for our device, I saw a recommendation to disable HW overlays in the developer options. I have done this and seen some improvement already. Though it is too soon to tell if it fixes all of the problems, you might give this a try and see if it helps you too. NOTE: You will have to do this after every reboot.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] nepotist:
I am also facing frequent freezes and reboots along with the Data disabling situation. In addition, I have noticed that the Music player crashes when it runs for about 20 minutes. Also, lately I have noticed on few occasion my SMS wouldn't work. The messages are not being delivered and I get to see a Red triangle with an exclamation mark.

In this week It has happen to me twice.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] mariasnowhite:
Same here I'm afraid. Using the 7/6 build daily, the data sometimes cuts off. I turn on airplane mode on for a few seconds to get it back. I also have a problem with es explorer closing while scrolling a page[emoji22].
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] gimmeitorilltell:
That was ONLY for the one build. I have it set default that way except in the build I mentioned it in.

To all the above, we have been steadily working on the data issues. Also I bought a sim card & minutes for my device for testing. I'm just not sure if I will get data using airvoice with the 120 day plan or not. The rom will be updated when things are fixed or as they get fixed.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Montiniboi:
The rom works good here! But, i was wondering if there is any way of entering in the "touch screen firmware update screen" in this ROM? (the *#2663#* code) Im trying to bring my touch screen back to life but i cant pop up this screen neither when i type " *#*#2663#*#* "

Can somebody help me? :crying:

Thanks.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] paulsonmcreilly:
I may be having another side-effect along with losing data randomly then? Whenever I reboot my phone, disable HW overlays is disabled. My phone gets more stable after I enable this setting

Try the nano Gapps one that has only the Playstore.

Multiple issues

Even after enabling root access in dev options, I'm missing a lot of settings such as changing the CPU governor, clock speeds, enabling nav bar, etc. Also, this rom charges extremely slowly, and I've been led to believe that it has something to do with my kernel. how do I update my kernel? kernel version from "about phone": " 3.0.101-Candy5-gfffbc81 " my battery life is worse than stock and charges extremely slowly for some reason. definitely not my hardware though as the stock rom had great battery life and charged quickly.
