Go to note 4 forum original android and find emotion thread alliance is a good rom some graphical glitches like some notifications overlap each other...I have dolby working correctly...v4a...s6 folders which i did myself with the launcher that comes with noterized rom thanks saint23 for that fast ass launcher..s6 music.smart Manger so this is the perfect rom....no sytem ui fc im about to change signal bars and wifi status bar icons.. and i keep my phone looking stock i just changed the toggles the only thing not working is custom backgrounds if put a pic its just black but i think i know what to do ... overall beautiful rom....
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] slaldrich:
hmmmm.... The fact that we are having the same issue after pushing the apk to the system/app folder suggests that doing another clean install will probably not fix anything. If the problem stops when the Samsung Account apk is removed, wouldn't that that mean that the problem is either found in the apk or in how/where we are loading it? (One of my problems is that in this environment, I know enough to make me dangerous.)

Last night as we watched TV (want to know how much my wife loves it when I am tech-ing with my phone while next to her?)...... I reloaded my Nandroid backup of version 2 and thought I would just grab the apk from there and replicate the structure and file permissions in v3. I thought it odd that neither the apk nor the folder exists in the v2 system/app folder. I searched the entire version 2 install with Root Explorer and still couldn't find the dang thing.

Then I had an epiphany moment. For now, I will resolve the problem by not using the blasted Samsung account or being patient with that annoying boot message. That isn't a very rewarding answer, but a real time saver. :)

And I seriously want to thank those who built this ROM and for those who have tried to help me find answers. I will keep trying to find the answer but will try not to obsess on such a ridiculously tiny problem. :)

Edit: fix found ... see next post :)

Hey Slaldrich,

I was driving myself crazy trying to figure this out. I ended up following these instruction, downloading a new "SamsungAccount.apk" file and used "Rom Customizer" to install as a system app. So far it seems to be working. Let others know if this work or not for you. I'm not able to restore any of my S Health data from the last 2 years, but it's working now.

[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] slaldrich:
thanks. it works.

Well, hey. It works! I now have a Samsung account working AND no "Android updating" on boot (just first boot). For yucks, I checked to see if Rom Customizer installed the app in system/app. It isn't there.

So, since that was the method I originally used (using Rom Customizer to install as system app), it would appear that the apk I was using either corrupt or just not the right one. I did notice that the file size of the one I had was 6.48MG but the one I got from your post was 19.4 MG... not a minor difference.

Thanks!

Ever since I updated to V3 I have been having issues with sound. Has anyone else had any similar issues? It is really low on ringtones, notifications and just playing a video. Sometimes it is ok but most of the time it is really low and you can barely hear it. I have my volume all the way up.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] rickzyss:
Had the same issue with V1 and V3, did not install V2. I noticed the 3minit battery icon disappeared when the SysUI FC hit. Painstakingly navigated to settings and uninstalled the 3minit update. Force closes stopped almost immediately. The odd thing is that it would take several days after I updated 3minit for the issue to manifest. Hope this helps, took me several re-installs to figure it out.

Just have to say what a freaking awesome piece of work this ROM is. I've been a flashaholic since my first android, the humble HTC hero. I'm a theme freak, and this is far and away the best work out there. Upgrading to Gold tomorrow. Go team Alliance, you guys rock
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] schlepprock:
Anyone have any thoughts on why my music app isn't in my app drawer?

There's not one at all actually. Was the stock music player left out of V3?
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] slaldrich:
Not on mine either. (??) I didn't notice because I use a different player.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] kenjesse:
I use power amp myself so did not bother looking for any other. After looking thru my apps the only music app i found that i didn't install was Play Music. Sure enough upon opening it found my music files. Could be what your looking for.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] schlepprock:
Yep all my tunes are on my SD card, I just wasn't sure of a good music app to download.. I guess they're pretty much the same huh.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Bubba:
Power Amp rules. You'll buy the pro version. Its that good.

[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] ryanalan82:
I usually delete the stock music player anyways as nothing beats poweramp + viper.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] iowamoe300:
For the life of me I cannot get the samsung account to work properly using this method and the proper downloaded apk. It appears and lets me put in my info but when I try to sync or restore it gives me a server error. Since shealth won't sync either I would assume the two issues are related. Any ideas are appreciated. I have reinstalled the rom twice from scratch.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] tgamble160:
Ok. I can't set a custom wallpaper. I found a few guys saying to go to restart apps and click wallpaper fix. But I cannot for the life of me find it. Any help would be greatly appreciated
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Bellefotopervoi:
What's up Pod, dude it's been a while huh? Still hollar at your boy travis from time to time. But isn't this rom sick. I wanted to just get it all tweaked out with all the v2 stuff and slowly catch all I can with the v3 and then it started force closing. I've heard it's the 3min update, but haven't had a chance to test it. How did you retweak the system ui, and I'm going to look into that noterized laucher and see what's it all about.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] slaldrich:
Can Poweramp stream music to external devices? This is a great feature of the stock music player.....
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] rey_1178:
Thank you. Maybe I should wait a little bit as it seems some folks are having issues with this release.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] ipodhacked86:
Yeah i heard about the 3minit problem rom runs great im not on alliance right on the moment but trust i have a crazy nice backup? the noterized launcher is from the noterized rom i pulled the launcher from that rom because its tweaked for speed which i like and losing custom left swipe wasnt a deal breaker for me but if you need pm me.i got some goodies
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] kenjesse:
I do love the way this ROM sleeps.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] gottria:
So can we update 3minit with the v3 rom, or does it still give you system UI crashes?
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Bubba:
Yes. I Bluetooth to my truck, Denon headset and Bose speaker all the time. It works flawlessly.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] nordy420:
Hey bud, can u post up that launcher and mods, i cant download that other rom to extract em? Thank you
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] dschachm:
I had to update the app to be able to download different batteries, but once I applied and plugged in my phone the get the systemui fc. I installed the update and fc is gone.

My thinking is there is an issue with the charging icon because that's when it crashes and I have a different icon when it is plugged in vs on battery.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] slaldrich:
Thanks, but I'm not talking about bluetooth... can it stream to a player like Roku/Smart tv/equipped blueray player?

The stock photo gallery has an icon where if you tap it, it can send a photo directly to to your tv screen (if you have an equipped TV). The stock music player has this same capability for music. I haven't found it in any other music player that can do this. (For example, Rocket will stream to a Chromecast stick... but nothing else.)

I love this rom... but this is a feature that I will miss...
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Bubba:
Ahh gotcha .. I have no idea lol. I have never done that or even tried. A quick look around the app and I don't really see what your looking for. There is a free version. I suggest you give it a try and see.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] eazy401:
How can I get a custom wallpaper working
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] schlepprock:
I'm on Alliance V3 and I can set a custom home screen wallpaper from my gallery,whether it be a custom photo or a download from Zedge.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] fastmikey1969:
There used to be a fix wallpaper setting in the Alliance app, I can't seem to find it right now...
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] eazy401:
Did you clean flash from v2
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] schlepprock:
From my experience whatever you want for your wallpaper has to be in your gallery. Long press the pic or image you want from gallery, hit the three dots to bring up options, select "set as" home screen.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] eazy401:
Yeah i do that. Message cones up saying setting as wallpaper and then it goes away but no changes
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] schlepprock:
Hmm.. Mine changes to the image I selected, I just did it a few times to be sure I was giving the correct info.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] rey_1178:
I know what you're talking about and Yes mine does this perfectly fine.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] slaldrich:
What are you using? I tried Poweramp (trial) and didn't see it.

Edit:

Lol... never mind... I looked back to see who you are. :)

3minit app

What is the fix for the 3minit app causing FC when charging?

I have read that 3minit says you need to push a smali update to be able to use V3 of the app

Any ideas or guidance?
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] dschachm:
If you go into settings and themes and change the theme, you then can't change to a custom wallpaper. I had that issue and had to reinstall the os.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] zillahakzor:
For the time being I chose to use the battery bar and stock battery %. Not as pretty but functional.

After the fix earlier in the thread my Shealth still FC'd. I D/Led the Samsung apps from

http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s2/themes-apps/app-samsung-apps-apk-t1317339

It allowed Shealh to update and all is well. Thank you to all devs for the great rom!
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] gottria:
Thanks, mine starts FC right after it completes the upgrade, plugged it in does the same thing. Had to quickly hit buttons back to the play store and uninstall. After that the FC stopped.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] slaldrich:
wondering...

I am thankful for the work that has gone into this ROM. I also know that the developers don't owe me or anyone anything... You are helping us here.

But, I am wondering... V3 is missing the stock music app and Samsung account syncronization. Are these oversights that will eventually return or is the plan to permanently do away with them?

Your prerogative. I'm just wondering if I should wait for 3.x or look for alternates.. For now, I've retreated to v2.

(The Samsung Account apk I found installed and connected but it never actually synced s-health or notes with Samsung... I assuming something internal is missing. )

Thanks.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] iowamoe300:
I too, appreciate the work that went into this. The ability to theme otf is fantastic. As saldrich mentioned, is there a reason for the missing samsung account and galaxy apps? The galaxy apps apk is easy enough to install, but no matter what you do with installing the samsung account it will not sync or restore. I use it to back up my call log and text messages. I'm hanging with v3 for now and hopefully the samsung account sync issue will be resolved.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] dvtmg704:
Can somebody show me again how to get the camera shutter sound icon back on i want to turn it off
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] rey_1178:
Maybe one of you guys has an idea. I was upgrading to v3 this morning. You know how long these lollipop roms take at boot up. The phone got real hot and right when it was about to finish booting up it shut off and now the phone won't turn on. I have it on the charger and it's still dead :(
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] zillahakzor:
Are you able to access download mode?
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] rey_1178:
No its completely dead. Even plugged on the charger I get nothing, not even the led light. Think I lost this phone.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] zillahakzor:
My only suggestion would be a battery pull then. Beyond that, I don't know.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] rey_1178:
Yeah I've done that and left the power button pressed with battery out. Not even the led lights up. Looks like I'll have to head to sprint and use my insurance. Sigh.... Maybe next time I'll put the phone next to a fan during first boot up.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] kevinoliva113:
You shouldn't have to use your insurance. If it overheated and fried the battery, you may have to buy one. If it is a software issue (it shouldn't be) they will reinstall stock. Root does not void sprint warranty.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] rey_1178:
Unfortunately the phone is dead. Sprint couldn't bring it back so a replacement should arrive this Wednesday. I'll have to swing by and do the swap. Fortunately I had backed up 90% of what was on the phone but now I'm paranoid about rooting and flashing the phone. Been doing this for years without an issue but flashing these lollipop roms gets these phones too hot. I'll probably do it all again when I get it but am afraid. I'll stop posting about this now and get back on topic. :(
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] slaldrich:
using a root explorer...

go to system/crc and open features.xml

then find---- cscfeature_camera_shutter_sound menu

--- edit that setting from false to true

save and close

reboot.

you will now find a toggle within the camera app that will allow you to turn the camera click off and on
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] slaldrich:
A similar thing happened to me. Take it off the charger. Pull the battery foe 20 secs and then try again. The charger may be keeping it in an unbootable state.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] rey_1178:
Thank you but tried that too. It's been off the charger for a few hours now.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] slaldrich:
Completely dead? If you.plug it into your computer with USB, does it show in file manager? Heck, try it for yucks. If it shows up, there is hope.

If it is fried., it should be under warranty. If it is completely dead, they can't turn it on to tell whether or not it was rooted....

Otherwise, put it under your rear wheels and back up. Then put the car in drive and come forward. Repeat as needed. Then, throw off nearest bridge. Does your insurance cover damage or loss?

Ugh. I feel your pain. Sorry for you.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] rey_1178:
Thanks Bud. Sprints insurance is going to cover it but still, haven't been without a phone in years. Hoping it indeed arrives at the store by Wednesday. Then I'll be back here and hoping it doesn't happen again..... :eek:
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] slaldrich:
For stop-gap, you can use Titanium Backup (Pro) to back up call logs and sms messages. You can even set up a schedule and upload your backups to Google Drive. Rom Toolbox also allows you to back up this stuff. That doesn't help much with the other stuff, however.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] potter12490:
I can only get my Samsung account to sync with scrapbook. I only really need it to sync s note. If I go to storage usage it says server temporarily unavailable. Any ideas?
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] iowamoe300:
Thanks for the idea. I completely forgot about that. Went and pulled a backup from the last rom and got my messages,phone logs, and saved wifi back, and restored with titanium.

I have tried everything I know to fix that issue. I can only assume it is a missing element from the samsung account being removed from the rom.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] dvtmg704:
I installed samsung app and everything works fine
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] ryanalan82:
Lollipop was not the issue or flashing or any of the software. Something with the hardware went.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] smokescreen:
Anyone know how to disable these icons in the dropdown? Can't seem to find a setting anywhere. Thanks in advance.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] kevinoliva113:
Alliance control, drop-down, I think they are called alliance shortcuts. Uncheck, restart UI.

Edit: alliance app panel
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] eazy401:
How can I either change the background or the text color. This is the contact menu under text messaging. My contact phone book itself is fine
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] lacoursiere18:
You can not.. Look.. This ROM is not meant to be inverted, meaning totally black backgrounds.. You will have text issues.. Sorry I was in the middle of making a dark base for Alliance, but now that A) I don't have this Phone and B) I am on a device currently with no root method.. I am screwed on doing that..

Theming for a device you don't have or can't test is pretty difficult :crying:
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] eazy401:
Then what can I do so that I can see the contacts in order to select them
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] lacoursiere18:
Don't make your system bg Black... or remove Mms from whitelist in enable system backgrounds
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] eazy401:
mms is not selected and system background is not black. I may be in the wrong menu though for background. Where specifically should i be. Thank you for your patience
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] schlepprock:
You'll have to keep experimenting with all the settings, it can be done. Someone said to write down the steps you take while experimenting so you'll have record of what you've tried.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] rey_1178:
Well yes obviously. My point is these phones are getting real hot due to how long lollipop takes to boot up after flashing. Friday night and Saturday morning were extremes for me because I had flashed a lollipop rom 5 times. The phone was super hot just when it was about to finish booting up, then dead.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] lacoursiere18:
Lie it in the freezer while she boots.. That will keep her cool :laugh::laugh:
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] schlepprock:
Maybe the fridge at least. ?
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] rey_1178:
Will do buddy :D. Thank you for being patient with my off topic posts. I'm having withdrawal symptoms over my phone and your rom.

Later :good:

I was able to install the app and sign in and it all looks good BUT the sync doesn't actually work. If you go to "cloud" in settings and check the sync... Is it actually syncing?

Mine spins and then says that sync is down . If your sync works, could you please point us to the apk you installed? Or how you installed it?

Thanks..

Did u install the app through root explorer and set the permissions

---------- Post added at 05:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:02 PM ----------

Im not using nova do i need to use that to make wallpaper work
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] slaldrich:
I tried all of the steps offered earlier in this forum.... not all at once, but at different times, cleaning up any mess I left behind.

1. I pushed the app to system/app using Rom Customizer and set the permissions

2. I tried creating a secondary folder within system/app and set the permissions as described

3. I wiped cache and dalvic and did it yet again

Sometimes sync would work but sometimes I would get freeze on boot and always got an "android updating" message every time on boot Later, I stopped getting freeze on boot, but continued to get the "android updating." Not a huge issue, but annoying and showing that something is quirky.

More recently, I followed the instructions in post 987... after that, it signs me in okay and I get no "updating" messages... but now it doesn't sync at all.

Honestly, I have jumped through so many hoops and wasted so much time on this-- that I reverted to version 2.

Before I try again with v3, please just assure me that your sync is actually working and that you are not getting the "updating android" message every time you reboot. If yours is working, I will reload v3 and give her a try. :) (And you will have my non-eternal gratitude. )
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] dvtmg704:
It does
