Question about aroma - Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II

Do most people have issues with this installer?
I have been reading that there are hang up problems when using it. I being one of those. Is there anything that I or others with these issues might do to help correctly use or install roms that choose to use this?

I constantly fiddle with Aroma on my phone. The only problem I have come across is that when you use the "back" button while theming your rom, it tends to freeze. It's 100% not a deal breaker just a minor niggle that hopefully will be fixed at some point. All you have to do at that point is pull battery and start over.
Simple way to do it, is when you are setting options, have the Morphology page up that shows what the options look like.

Fix permissions

Why do most roms OP state to "fix permissions" directly after flashing the rom, when that does nothing... it fixes them in .3 seconds? lol.... pretty sure it's best to do it after setting the phone up the way you want. Where it takes a couple minutes and actually gives you a log of what is fixed. Just curious if I'm wrong in thinking all this jazz.

I had no idea either. But this cleared it up for me.

Probably just because it can't hurt to do one, that and if an issue arises they can be certain that it was done.

Ive wondered it myself. Never do it though. To me its there for when you run into problems with FCs and such. I assume its the devs trying to be proactive for those who dirty flash.
Ive seen it screw things up to btw.

I know what Fixing Permissions does, just why they tell their users to fix them before anything can be broken, is where my curiosity begins, if I remember right even after a dirty flash they don't wont be fixed til after a reboot...
my way of doing things
wipe data/system/cache
flash rom
boot up>let sit for 5 minutes>install through TB or recover data
boot into recovery and fix permissions, which takes a couple minutes, if I have errors.
Congratulations, no one cares.

only fix permissions if you have issues of force closes or log cats are showing files as unreadable... basically if you are having issues of some sort.
also, good idea to fix permissions from terminal while booted into android if you are using a recovery that has not been updated in a long time

Oh, I know how to run and use fix permissions. I'm just curious as to why some rom cooks give instructions that are useless.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
That's a valid question.
I think it's an instruction for crack flashers.
It levels everything out.
Especially, if you are trying to keep your data

[Q] Phone will not remember "default" apps?

My new Note 2 will not remember default apps. For example, if I install a home screen replacement, every time I hit the home button it asks me to select which to use. Every time I click on a link it asks "Complete action using" with a list off all usable apps. Even when I select always after picking the app. It's done it on 2 different roms. I'm on Jedi-x3.1 atm.
Anybody have any suggestions? It's very annoying.
My first instinct would be to clear cache but I'm new to all this stuff so I may not even be close to right.

I'm thinking it would make more sense to ask in the rom thread if you're not running stock.

I get that on media files. Modded 7501 rom.
When these ROMs first came out the buttons were reversed. Try hitting the other button. This has been fixed, as far as I know

Probably not much use to anybody else with this problem but I've managed to make it stop by flashing a different ROM.

Harder to swipe windows in Jelly Bean?

I tried searching for others with the same problem but couldn't find anything. Does anyone else seem to find that you have to swipe farther along the screen to get to the next screen? for example I need to swipe about 1/2 the screen length to get to the next page, where before I could just do a quick flick to go to the next page. I don't know if I'm missing a setting or something, but it's kind of annoying.
I think you can just change your sensitivity on your screen, btw what ROM and what version of it are you running?

Thats why drunk asked "what ROM and what version of it are you running?". You wouldn't call Auto Zone and ask how to change a fuse without telling them what kind of car you were driving would you? The more info someone gives, the easier it is to help with the issue at hand.

Oh so sorry about that. I was looking at the browser in my phone and must have missed his post completely. I'm using
[ROM] [Team ScarLick] [Deodexed] [GB27 TW] Touched By SGSIV V 1.2 updated 4/4
I never noticed the problem in gingerbread. I haven't tried any other JB roms. This is my first.
I just came from that rom to jellyverse so I know the layout of the rom and I don't believe there is an option to adjust touch sensitivity. If I'm wrong someone correct me but I don't think that rom has the option to do so. You just gotta get used to it, it's not that big of an issue that the rom is unbearable (at least it wasn't for me). There have been issues in other rooms where I simply couldn't stand the rom because of a single issue but that wasn't a huge issue for me...like I said just gotta get used to it

Yeah, that's what I've had to do. I know that most of the AOSP roms (cyanogenmod etc) have touch sensitivity adjustment but nothing touchwiz based on 4.1.2 have I seen with that option

I have the same issues that you... since install the v10 and my S3 is also slow .. I like the version v10 .. but i had to return to v9.1
Haven't tried any version other than 10, but will give it a shot. Now that I think about it my s3 is kinda slow. Thanks for the idea!

Have you read thru the rom thread? If its a rom issue others surely will have reported it.
Otherwise it may have more to do with the flashing method you may have used than with the rom itself.

Whatever issues given in this thread should have been cleared if op or anyone having these issues goes through development section thread and flashes rom correctly as per instructions these issues wouldn't have come
I am using this rom without any of these issues

Just love how ignorant supposed techies point blame instead or correcting the issue. Dont be ignorant.
I wasnt aware of an existing post on this or I wouldnt have asked for help.
I did ask for help and not complaints.
Other than that this is by far not my first time loading roms, I think after the 20th or 30th time I would say I know what im doing. So again save your ignorance for yourself.

Md5 check the download . Try again with a full wipe? I. I'm v10 and have no issues. Usually a clean install will resolve most problems. Good luck.

Only a few problems here!
I've been using Wicked since ICS days with very few problems. Had an issue with Bluetooth that was resolved by wiping and reflashing the ROM back on ICS.
Since switching to Jelly Bean, about the only issue I've had is S Beam and/or Wi-Fi Direct connection/file sharing. In the two cases I've had, a dirty flash has fixed the problem.
Other than that, the ROM has been great for me!
Good Luck!

LMT Stopped working
I have been using Wicked Rom v_9.1 for about three months with NO problems. All of a sudden LMT service stopped working. The pops up. Unfortunately LMT has stopped working. So I see that V10 is out so I Flasj V10 the proper way thinking that would take care of the problem. NOPE same thing happened. Any ideals?

How in GOD'S name do I do that? I was under the impression that when I flashed a new rom that would have cleared out everything.
Its an option during flash. Or boot recovery and factory reset.

Are you restoring data or any backups?
Have you searched in or asked in the rom thread to see if its a common or known issue?
I think someone else had a similar problem. (Isnt lmt related to some app called pie?) If so uninstall and reinstall the app.
Otherwise, try clearing data for lmt and force stop. Then reboot and see if it still acts up.

I'm personally glad you started this thread. Because of my low post count, I can't post in that forum.
I've only been using this rom for a couple days and I love it. The only problem I've had was that I can't seem to get the Awsome Beats to do anything. Changing the settings doesn't seem to make any noticeable difference in sound quality. I know it's not a big deal but I think it would be a cool thing to have since I use my phone to listen to music almost as much as I use it to communicate.
I'll admit that I didn't read through the 1000+ pages but I did do a search of the thread and didn't come up with anything.
Oh, I'm using the stock Samsung music player, Songbird and Pandora to listen to music.
Stock kernal as well.

Buttons not functioning

Anyone ever have the home, menu, back, and search keys not function properly? Doesn't seem to be an issue with the ROM as I have tried a couple and have the problem on both all of a sudden.
By not function properly, I mean not function at all. Hitting those buttons has no effect.
Any ideas?

Started happening on ascension oblivion after about 3 weeks of using the ROM. Switched to chillybeans cm10.1 to see if that would fix it but no luck. I have also tried doing a few full wipes and reinstalling both ROMs.
Thinking about going back to stock to see if that fixes it, but really don't want to.

Turning them on didn't seem to fix my issue. However turning them off completely and using the navbar in cm 10.1 is working for me for now. Thanks for the tip.
Is it possible that the buttons not working is a hardware issue?

Do you have a screen protector on? I've never heard of em having issues though sorry to say.. of course i twist mine a little side to side outta boredom.. Semi take it apart you might have dust or dirt in there
No, don't have a screen protector on. I haven't heard of them not working either. Unfortunately, my phone is my only source of internet access for the next few days. So its not easy to do much research.
