Hi XDA,
I'm currently running latest Flinny CM10 test build (125), and an issue I've had for a while is that even when the phone is locked, but screen is on, I can pull down the notification bar and do actions. Is this normal? Is there a setting somewhere that needs to be switched off? I am using Apex launcher.
Cheers.
As far as I know this is a standard behavior since android 4.0 (ICS). There is no settings to disable it.
Someone correct me if I’m wrong
EDIT: If you have enabled screen security (pattern, PIN, password) you should not be able to pull down the notification bar. You should be able to pull it down only with slide lock.
I enabled a simple gesture unlock and yes now I can't pull down the notification bar.
It still seems strange that this is normal behaviour.
Thanks heaps!
yup... That's normal...
I also face some issue which is the ROM could not connect to external gps device... I think that's issue exist in CM10 since have same issue with galaxy smtd...
Yeah I don't have working orientation, light or gyro sensors still. It seems like some people have this problem and others don't depending on hardware revision.
Sorry for writing sth different here but i didnt want to create a new topic, so...
I had this andromadus version on my DZ but i didnt find any pre installed camera app, anyone else who had this or do i have to reload the rom (maybe sth went wrong during downloading)

Just wondering... Do u install gapps? If not, you should do that when u install it for the first time (after you install the rom).

As with every CM build after 4.1.11.1 on the G1, ALWAYS FLASH GAPPS AFTER FLASHING THE ROM.
cm made a 4.2 donut where the base was flashed first still, so starting with eclair gapps where flashed after

I did, yet ther was no camera app pre installed
Even the icon on the unlock streen existed, but when i unlocked it with the cam symbol nothing happened, it just went back to the lockscreen
I had mimicry before and therefore i got used to flash gapps, so did i with this jb rom too

I love this ROM, everything I generally use on a regular basis works fine. My only real problem is this ROM is a serious power drain, within an hour of being unplugged in the morning I have already lost 10% of the battery, by mid afternoon I am forced to plug the phone back in, this is something of an issue as I work at hospitals and plugging appliances into the mains is a violation of health and safety regulations, but I need my phone so I do what ya gotta do. Is there any way to reduce the drain from this ROM as I am fairly sure it is not any applications I have installed causing it, as none are running in the background when I check running apps.
plug it in to a computer with a logcat running, see what is going on that way. or if you aren't able to sit in front of a computer for a while watchdog is a nice app for this (keep in mind it should be for testing basis and be removed later as it to will always be running in the background)

evernote makes phone slow
I am using this rom (build 124) and I have and after restoring all my apps it became really slow. After some try/error I found that uninstalling some apps solved the problem. After that I started installing my apps again one by one and I found installing evernote make the phone near unusable.
Anybody is experiencing this? it also happen if I install "camera 360".
I am running build 127 of this ROM which definitely seems faster than build 126 which was the first one I tried and seems to be quick enough to actually use it most of the time.
When things do go slow it seems to be when switching to a new app and seems more likely to happen is the new or old app is big.
Regarding more apps slowing things down I wonder if it is actually more widgets and background services. If this is, as I suspect, do to with how many apps can be cached in RAM for fast switching then the more apps have something running in the background, for example to sync with a cloud service or to keep a widget updated, the less RAM there will be for the apps you are trying to use and there will therefore be a greater chance the app you are trying to start has to be started from scratch.
These threads really need to stop, Flinny's test build is just that A TEST BUILD problems/issues are expected.
I think it's normal...anyway it don't obstruct me

In my case I am certainly NOT contributing in order to criticise. Of course I know a test build may have issues but, like many others I suspect, I am happy to try the latest thing. When things don't work quite right it is worth discussing it. If we can understand what is happening we can help each other mitigate the issue and maybe even have something useful to feed back to developers.
I was running build 127 and things had become very slow. I have now updated to build 128 and the phone is fast again. At this stage I am not sure if this has anything to do with the new build or whether it is down to apps. I have all 45 apps installed but for many of those that sync to cloud services I have not yet got round to setting up the username/password for that to happen so this may be limiting the amount of background activity to a level where it doesn't get in the way. I'll try setting some of them up and see what happens.
This is based on the work from the Original thread and the original thread link from that post. All I did was package it into an Xposed module so you don't need to flash a particular version to get the short delay. I have only tested this on the international stock odexed ROM, but it should work on any ROM with the stock Samsung keyboard. If it doesn't work, please send me a copy of /data/xposed/debug.log. It's super simple, so I don't expect problems. I'm running the multi-DPI keyboard mod as well, and it works fine.
Installation is like any Xposed module, so see the Xposed thread for info on how to use it. Once installed, it should show up as a module in the Xposed installer app. Just check the box to enable it and reboot. You should be good to go after the boot is complete. Please be sure your Xposed install is working. Try using one of the other mods to make sure before reporting bugs with this module. The setup is pretty simple, but there are a few steps to getting it going. Once I get some reports that it's working, I'll post the source to github. I just don't want to push out source that doesn't work for anyone other than me.
I use that module for Xposed in my Galaxy S4, and I have a question: is that mod correctly work on another device than Galaxy Note II? In my phone there is no autocorrection, and delay is not short. Is any possibility to further decrease the time?

I have only tested it on a Note2 and Note3. It worked for the Note3 without any changes. The S4 may well use a different keyboard app as the Note keyboard has a number of options for the larger screen. This mod never did anything with auto-correct, only the keyboard long-press delay. Going much lower will break some other features, or just make them really hard to use.
Trying it now on my note 2, key board feels snappier but I'm still testing it, question if I ever want to go back to original, what arte the steps to go back?

You will need to edit the source code and rebuild the module as I didn't think anyone would want to configure it like that. See the link below for the source.
I tried this on my Galaxy Note 3, and now the keyboard is missing the shortcuts. Anyway to get the shortcuts back on my keyboard? I already uninstalled this tweak, and I tried a factory data reset, and the Samsung keyboard still has no shortcuts.

This mod doesn't change anything I can think of that would affect that. I tested it on a TMO US Note3 with stock software and it worked fine. Modded ROMs might have compatibility issues with it as they may have changed the code I'm taking over. As I understand it, the shortcuts are handled by CSC settings. Have you recently installed anything that could mess with those? A data wipe won't affect CSC, as it lives on the system partition. I believe there was an issue similar to this with Wannam breaking wifi calling due to CSC mods, as one example. Even an update to another app could have done it. It's hard to say.
If you want to get it back to stock, the only way I can think of would be to restore the stock CSC. The simplest way would be to wipe system and re-flash the ROM. Then install things one at a time to look for what might be messing with CSC settings.
The code is about as simple as an Xposed module can be, it takes over one method in the keyboard class and tells it to use a shorter delay. The original method is a one-liner, as is mine. It's literally "return 200;".
Here's a direct link to the code: https://github.com/travistabbal/Xpo...SamsungKeyboardShortDelay/ShortDelayMain.java
I have the At&t Note 3, so I don't have any custom roms. The only other app I have is Wanam Xposed and the only thing I have enabled on Wanam is the flashlight on the lock screen. Before I installed this tweak I had the shortcuts on my keyboard, after I installed it and rebooted my phone the shortcuts were gone. It feels weird without them, I'm so used to them being there. I rooted my phone with Kingo root, and I wouldn't know how to flash to the stock rom. Please help.

If you disabled/uninstalled this mod, and rebooted, it's no longer there. It makes no persistent changes to the system. If Wanam updated before you rebooted, that could do it. That one does modify CSC files. I have no idea if that is what happened in your case or not. I'm afraid that I can't be much more help directly as I don't have an ATT N3 to test on. The best advice I can give is to hit the ATT N3 Q&A forum and post there about your issue. Perhaps someone can send you a backup of their CSC files? Or someone may have run into the same thing and know the cause. I would be VERY shocked if this little mod had anything to do with it though. It's only a few steps away from "Hello World".
Wanam is what's breaking the symbols. There's a setting to turn them off, and it's "on" by default.
Turning it off doesn't always make the symbols come back. But after a few reboots they will be there. I had the same problem before I even found your .apk
And updated version would be great where I can pick my own milliseconds.. I'm a 128ms kinda guy

Thank you so much for saying this. I have a Verizon Note 3 but I was having this issue on a new ROM and I thought I had some weird junky modified keyboard because I didn't even realize it was a Wanam option. It was driving me insane. Somehow I found your post in a search and I'm glad I did! I actually couldn't get them to come back after a few reboots but uninstalled Wanam with the symbols turned on, reinstalled, rebooted, and THEN they came back.
This is nice! I have another question too if anyone can answer me. I flashed the root 4.3 stock odin style onto my note 2. After rebooting brand new and checking my samsung keyboard settings, it showed having the auto replace option there which is good for me. After a while though i noticed that it would not replace my words anymore and checked the keyboard settings and the auto replace was gone!! Anyone know what may have happened?
I am already on my 2nd Note 3.
The phone is rooted with CF and running DarthStalker 6.
I am having programs disappear on their own, force shutdowns, and some programs refuse to load under 4.3.
T Mobile has offered to let me buy a new, NOT refurbished Note 2 running 4.12 on it.
Should I make the move back?
I use my phone for Music, Movies, Pics, Internet, and I need the best reception and battery life possible.
Plus this Knox stuff is just a pain.
What would you guys do and why?
I have 2 days to decide.
Thank you for any input,

My Note 3 is working flawlessly and lighting fast. I'm rooted running Wicked V5 with Compulsion kernel. Stay with the Note 3. It's a great device!!

It is also now cought in a bootloop that I have to fix after every image or backup
I am running Next Launcher Menu, I wonder if that could be screwing things up?
use the latest TWRP and you wont have issue with any bootloops. it happened to me a few times. there is a guide on the this forum which fixes it
i think you should use Tweaked rom with stock kernel. i personally love it and they have some cool features built right into it.

You don't think that maybe the issue is the ROM you are on....
What is the definition of psychotic again? Doing the same thing over and over and over again expecting different results?
What are the odds that two of your Note 3's in a row are having the same issue? Something that is clearly data related and not hardware related.
Basically, what I am getting at is the problem is you, or more likely your ROM.
Try a different one, issue goes away... I would bet money on it.
I have tried Jedi Elite, DarkStalker, Wicked, Tweaked, and multiple Kernels.
That is why I finally posted for help.
Not sure then. I would say be more specific. What is force closing? What "programs" (I assume you mean apps...) forget to "load" and what do you mean by load exactly - install, connect to a network? Need more details. Your description is vague.
And what do you mean they disappear? From your app drawer? From the device? Are they still installed when you go into settings and application manager?

Sounds very familiar. Try one thing. Remove your sd card. Flash rom again and then see if your issues are gone. What recovery are you using and what version?
TWEAKED 2.0 ELEMENT V2.0 NOTE 3
Try leaving it stock and i bet your proablems are gone.
I have had all of these problems as well and had to actually go into the recovery and mess with that. ever since I did that my phone runs just like it should. Try this thread if you ever have the bootloop issue http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2471421. The Note 3 is a really great device and I honestly wouldnt leave it unless you must and in your case it seems like you might. I myself and running Slimkat 4.4.2 right now but i switch to DarkStalker a lot because I miss my touchwiz features.
Go back to what you are happy and accustomed to. Note 2, then wait shortly for the Note 4
Does anyone is having an extreme lag with the ZL ?? I'm suffering from it and I don't know if it's the 4.4.4 update or what.( I dont remember when it started). I tried with stock rom and right now with MoonWalker Rom, but I have the same issue on both. What do I have to do? Do I have to go back to 4.3 or there is a fix?
Thank you so much!
Welll... thank you all for your feedback
can you sucscribe lag thatyou have? i have a lag that my keyboard not always show in time when i touch an input area, i have to wait couple seconds. and i thin this is arom related.
Hello, I have the same issue after kitkat update. I did everything to fix this problem and nothing.
I notice that after full recovery (format) Is fine but when the stock apps update via google play (like google play services) the issue appear.
I just have one thing to say, this is my first and last time with Sony. Buggy Firmware, lot of hardware bugs, the screen is not resistant, the vibration system is like a china phone and so on.
My issues:
Texting lag (keyboard lag)
screen transitions lag
Opening and closening the status bar lag
Scroll lag
everything had lag after kitkat update
I did every kind of recovery.
It's very laggy just when i delete something
possible correction

It lags when I tap on an input text, it lags when I type... like: I type a sentence and nothing happens....after 4 seconds, characters appears in a fast sequence...and this happens 90% of the time.
What I have tried:
Reboot
Clean caches
Re-install ROM
Install 3 different stock roms (my cell is BL)
The final and WORKING thing that I did is........: Go back to fu**in 4.3, it runs smoothly like 4.4.4 should be.
I recommend not to buy a sony device, their development team sucks and they release devices every 5months which becomes the current generations obsolete in a couple of months.

Thanks for the advice!
Actually this is my girlfriend's phone, my is a clean and perfect nexus 5.
But there is some news... Maybe some services get updated in the last 2 weeks, and now the phone is good enought to use, not perfect but is good, 90% of the laggy disappear, but I dont know for how long....
Sony nevermore...just clean androids like nexus....
I had to back to 4.3. The best rom ever. The 4.4.4 lags a lot on keyboard and multitasking.
If you have 2 or 3 app it's OK, otherwise not.
The 4.4.4 Taskbar is ugly, lags and worst than 4.3.
The question is. What the "Fuccc..." 4.4.4 have better than 4.3?
So, don't upgrade to kitkat. Only the real chocolate bar ir better than jellybean...
Is anyone else annoyed at the 2-3 second delay in showing recent apps that I experience from time to time. As a matter of fact it never opens very fast, at least 1-2 seconds. If so is there a fix our should I hope that when lollipop comes to the note 4 it will fix it.
There is a noticeable delay with mine as well.
Moved to Q&A.
This has happened to me but in every aspect of the phone. Rooted, no xposed, and only non-essential bloatware/update services uninstalled.
It is only for 1/2 a second or so, but the phone glitches like it is thinking hard then will complete the action. I even unrooted and reflashed my stock rom backup and still have it.
Probably going to return it today or tomorrow as my 14 day grace period ends. Pretty sad. I've tried just about everything to get it to stop and thought my stock rom would solve the problem, alas, no.
Still stock and not rooted (yet) and have the same annoying lag. Everything else is quick though.
It's the only issue i have with the phone, everything else has been great. I'm sure this will be addressed in a future update unless it's that way for a reason.

Same here. Hope they do something about it.
I've noticed mine is doing the same.. Is there a Task Manager app available that will allow you to see apps running in real time similar to that which comes with Windoze operating systems? In my opinion, this would help me see what is actually lagging when it does lag.
I found this from another thread here at XDA.. Am going to give it a shot.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=56320983&postcount=2
The link above is actually the fix for Xposed framework causing lag. Might help. Another help is turning off the animation which adds 1.5 seconds. Goto Settings/About phone/tap the build# several times until it declares you have developer options. Open developer options from the settings menu and find the animations and set to 0. Now the delay is down to one second even with Xposed framework. Solved.
One more thing, the build.prop may also need to be modified if running rooted stock. It took some googling and fixing but I finally got ADB working with the Starkissed kernel, ADB insecure and build.prop mods.
I don't have exposed installed and I have the lag as well. Watched and applied the fixes on this video and my Note 4 is way quicker! Totally amped!

this phone out of the box does not lag . Rooting has nothing to do with it. IT'S what you have done either before or after rooting. Check yourselves gentleman it's something you have done..

The lag is better but not as smooth as my Note 3 on cm11.
I am the first to admit personal fault, and I'd like to admit fault as to something I've done, but I have Odin flashed the stock rom and recovery back on the phone, and the issue is still apparent. Maybe the phone is not properly wiping data on a factory reset(also wiped everything in TWRP before using Odin to wipe the phone) causing a file to stick around regardless of Odin, but it is troubling and annoying to say the least.
Since I'm out of the 14 day period, here is hoping we get a developer to build a unified AOSP ROM in the near future.
