Hey guys,
Not very well versed with how the custom ROM scene is with the note 2 but why is it that fix permissions is so quick with the touchwiz stock ROM that I'm using? Does it really fix permissions, or is it just not necessary?
Also, I was considering the revolution HD ROM. I imagine that I'd have to wipe data before I move over but my question is, how is the battery life on such ROMs, i.e.touchwiz compared to the stock ROM? I'm barely getting 5 hours screen on time.

For your second question,
The developer of Android Revolution HD is a legend on XDA. So expect good results.
It's close to stock and great battery life.
Thanks. I'd still like to know why is fixing permissions so messed up. I used to use it to fix my general problems all the time.

Well here you go, if fixing permission is fixing your problems than it mean it works fine.

What are you using to fix the permission?
CWM, TWRP, Titanium?
Anyway maybe you can try another app than the one you normally use.

If I use ROMManager, it takes a VERY long time and shows that no permission has been set at all.
If I use TWRP, it's instantaneous.
I haven't done it in CWM or Titanium at all.

Was wondering if anyone had the same problem as me/a solution..
My T-Mobile S2 randomly reboots itself once a day at least when left idle. Not rooted. Bone stock rom, about 33 user apps installed that never gave me problems on my other phones (Nexus One, HD2)
I read something about SD cards causing the issue, so I formatted mine from the phone and threw it back in, still happening.
I can give a list of my apps if it would help, other than that I did notice one other thing.. I use the google news & weather widget that came with the phone, and I set it not to auto refresh. After it reboots, and I don't have background data on, the widget doesn't load (this is how I know it's actually rebooting if I wake up to it) so maybe it's related to that somehow?
Any input is appreciated.

I get stuck everytime unless I use the Darkside Cache Wipe. After running that, RC2 loaded like a dream. Still searching for Wifi Calling though.
*edit* I flashed RC2 from the last nightly. But everytime I would use CWM to flash the latest nightly, I would have weird errors, (stuck on boot screen, CWM wouldn't start the install process, etc.) I kept a copy of DARKSIDE CACHE WIPE and decided to try to run that prior to install. Flashed RC2, booted no problem.

It is recommended that you do a full wipe before updating between nightlies, as generally significant amount of bugs are fixed and new codes implemented, so there are alot of changes. Not doing a wipe can interfere with these changes. If you don't want to re-install all the apps again after every rom flash, try 'app2zip' from the market.
Here's the link for that app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=scd.app2zip&hl=en
It will let you pack all the apps you currently have and want into a CWM flashable zip, which you can flash right after you wipe and install a new rom to get back all your apps.

There's no porting required. Just get the firmware/stock ROM of the galaxy s2 and dig into the /system/media/audio/ui folder on your computer and there you will find all the click sounds, as well as unlock sounds. Just copy the ones you want from your computer into the sd card of your phone and then go into the same directory in your phone (the /audio/ui folder) and replace the click noises with the ones you copied over, making sure that the name of the files is the exact same as the ones you are replacing. Also make sure that the file permissions are the same as the other files in that folder. Done!
Hope that helps guys.
Cheers.
I am currently running RC2 with TDJs Venom 4 CM9 #3 Kernel. Using the badass governor to conserve battery. Usually this governor is fantastic and is amazing with performance and saving battery.
For some reason today, this ROM/Kernel/Governor combo is draining battery a lot faster than normal and I am not sure why.
2 hours ago my phone was at 100% battery. It's now down to 91%, almost a 5% drop per hour. Typically I would get 8 to 10% battery drop in 5 hours time running the badass governor. I haven't used my phone more today than I normally would, so battery shouldn't be dropping as quickly.
CPU Spy confirms my phone is going into deep sleep and has been in deep sleep for 85% of the time. That is good and that is what I want it to do. Then GSam Battery showed that a particular app was keeping the phone awake for 29mins. I froze that particular app 30mins ago and in the 30mins since I froze the app the battery still drained 2%.
Anyone else running the same setup as me and notice faster than normal battery drain?
I dont know if this has been talked about before. For the person on the other side to hear me good I have to speak louder than usual. What i mean is, that before, i was able to whisper when i was on the phone since i work in an office, but now after the last few nightlies, i have to talk louder into the mic for people to hear me good. I was running some tests myself and i find that the pickup on the mic is very low when using the phone as normal, but the pickup is fine when using the speaker phone (Im able to whisper and the mic will pick it up). I just wanted to know if this is the remains of the underwater effect that we once had?

My main concern is, is the SD card working properly (transferring files to it, etc)? What about the internal storage?
Thanks a lot!
I tried it for most of today but switched back to wicked rom. For some reason my phone kept on going into vibrate mode. I didn't have any problems with my SD card.

If you see it in my signature then it's most likely stable for most. I just flashed this today and I need time to see if it has any glaring bugs.
This ROM is awesome. The best pure android experience. LED notification changes color when charging to let you know what percentage its at. Got Google wallet installed. Battery life is amazing. This will be my daily driver until I get the Nexus 4

I don't know why but LED settings isn't working for me...I try to set it for my messaging app but the LED doesn't turn on when I get a text. I've tried Cache wipe, Dalvik wipe, and Fixing Permissions but it's still not working. Checked MD5 and everything before install and did a full wipe too on TWRP.

Great!
My phone started whining that it was time for an incremental update on the stock OS. I checked GooManager and saw that there was a milestone release of AOKP for d2tmo... So, here I am. Make sure that if you're coming from stock that you download the Google Apps package from inside AOKP, otherwise it will download the wrong package.
My SanDisk 32GB SD card keeps unmounting, but it was doing that in the stock OS as well. I don't have any other SD cards to test with, so I don't know if it's an OS thing, a failing card, or a problem with my reader hardware. SD card issues aside, this ROM is exceedingly quick compared to the stock OS. It's been stable so far with good battery life under the latest LeanKernel, but I've been running it for less than 24 hours.
My overall space in the OS seems pretty low though, I have a 16GB phone and the Storage tab indicates that I have 12.05GB of space, with 8.70GB available. How can I wipe whatever is using the other 4GB and recover it for my use?

I've tried most every version of every ROM on this site for the S4. I really want to use 4.3, but none of the ROMs I've used have been reliable for me. I'm not looking for "Well try this ROM, it's stable for me" stuff; believe me, I've tried it. I'm simply curious if anyone has had the same pitfalls on 4.3 as I have. I know it's obviously not a widespread problem; but then again, the newer version of TWRP working properly also isn't widespread but I'm part of that minority.
I can't use any of the GPe 4.3 ROMs; every version I've tried has ended up freezing on the lockscreen while trying to wake. I've tried the stock kernels, I've tried Ktoonzes' kernels, I've tried Chronic kernel; no mods, undervolted and not, under/overclocked, etc. Source-built ROMs based on 4.3 do the same thing. Logcats show nothing, last_kmesg is equally void of reason; they just stop. Any ROM based on 4.2.2 works perfectly, even the GPe 4.2.2 dumps. I'm just curious if anyone else has been stuck to 4.2.2 because of something like this...

As the OP said, I've used the kernel that comes with the ROMs (i.e. NO mods at all), I've used Ktoonzes and Chronic Kernel, both with the bone stock profile that's there upon initial flash and I've uv'd the exact same as I do for all the 4.2.2 ROMS. In fact, what got me to try the stock kernel was thinking that maybe I WAS undervolting too much; but even using stock values, all 4.3 ROMs will give me the black screen of death within 24-36 hours. If I run the same exact settings on ANY 4.2.2 ROM, my S4 is solid as a rock.

Yeah, I had already ruled that out because of the way I tend to flash ROMs. Even when I'm updating I do a full wipe; dalvik, cache, data, and system. I have two sets of TiBu backups; apps downloaded while using 4.3 and apps downloaded while using 4.2.2 and I never re-use data through between different ROMs. I only restore user apps (not including system apps I change to user apps) when using TiBu also.

Another thing you can do is to install the 4.3 Rom without any user apps but the basic Google apps plus contacts and check if the SOD happens within 24 hours. If it doesn't, one of your apps has serious compatibility issues with 4.3

I haven't had this problem on any ROM and I've tried almost all of of them. I have been on VirginROM for awhile no problems, but I've been trying out carbon ROM for a little bit and no problems there either. I agree with laureanop it might be an app, either way let us know what you find out, good luck man.
