As for the RAM being consumed, perhaps Sammy has made some background changes to be more efficient with it. Using more RAM is a good thing as long as it doesn't become full. As I'm sure you already know, there are 2 camps on the subject. The ones that say it causes battery consumption because of resources being used. And those that believe battery consumption will go up because RAM is not being utilized, causing more CPU cycles to launch an application.

Either way, I did not invoke this change. :good:

Thank you sir and I am doing FANTASTIC today. Its going to be 80 here in socal!

Not sure if anyone noticed or not phone screen doesn't wake up on missed calls or texts.
How do I change ? Instead of pressing power button to see why the light is blinking :)

So now that the smoke has cleared a bit, how is everyone doing this day? :)

Doing quite well. I'm enjoying the distress and abasement of my office full of social workers due to the results of the elections last night. My garden is growing well considering the lateness of the season, I just started off a dozen varieties of peppers; Hot, sweet and ornamental... Just like my wife. :)

The 7.0.2.0 ROM is doing well. I didn't put in the GPE theme since I pushed on GEL and GEL xposed. Tasker and Zooper are making for a tight shell with only 2 widgets. I'm using TasGear, AutoNotification plugin and Media Utilities to expand functionality to Zooper. It is a bit of fun playing with the new toys.

Other than my bad timing of TiBU overwriting my backup data of one of my games, the clean install was a minor detail that makes for a more stable environment in the long run.

Great job Bri.

Stuck on Android L boot loop/animation!

Every time I try flashing the GPE Theme on my Note 3 using SafeStrap, I get stuck on the Android boot logo and have to flash Dynamic Kat all over again. Any ideas on why this is happening? :(

guys, has anyone tried to restore apps using titanium backup after the 7.0 update? after i choose the apps, and hit ok, the initial process force closes, but the process (titanium backup) keeps opened up on the notification bar, at 0%, without doing anything...

I restored loads of apps from Titanium backup after flashing the 7.0 ROM.... No issues whatsoever ?

Don't shoot...any workarounds for attaching video to stock sms (these are very small in size) I always get a FC. I know I can use 8sms but I like the on the fly text reply with stock

---------- Post added at 03:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:45 PM ----------

I have a couple of inbox invites if anyone is still interested. Does anyone have a XBL 48hr code?
If you have anymore I'd like one. Unfortunately I don't have any codes.for xbl (not sure if that was a prerequisite) If so no worries

Its under "Call Alerts"

I have no audible alerts when I'm on a call if you know how to fix that..?
Thanks for the suggestion. The setting under call alerts allows for pop ups over a call in progress.

The setting that I am looking for makes incoming calls show up as a dialog over whatever the current foreground application is. It allows you to answer or reject the call without disrupting your current task.

If you want to take an incoming call, clicking your bt makes the small dialog dissappear and you stay with your previous app. Same if you let it go to voice mail. Either way, you don't have to touch the phone.

This is especially handy (and safer) if you happen to be driving while using maps to navigate when a call comes in.

I think Brian knows what is missing and it's on his list.

Thanks again!

    ♦♦ Question and Answers by @clothednblack♦♦
    Q. What is a clean flash?
    A. Clean flash is as follows....
    Boot to ss
    Hit wipe
    Slide to factory reset
    Back out
    Hit install
    Find zip
    Slide to install
    This deletes everything except data. You will have to set the phone up again. All your pics and sounds and downloads are safe and will be there when you return.

    Super clean install is as follows....
    Boot to ss
    Hit wipe
    Hit advanced
    Check all boxes except sdcard
    Swipe to clean
    Back out
    Hit install
    Find zip
    Slide to flash
    Reboot.
    This will wipe everything on the phone, all pics, sounds, settings, everything will be gone, except the contents of the sdcard.

    Q. What is a dirty flash?
    A. Dirty flash is as follows...
    Boot to ss
    Hit install
    Find zip file
    Slide to flash
    Reboot.
    This deletes absolutely nothing, no wipe needed.


    Q.What happens when I wipe data?
    A.While in Safestrap if you select the "Wipe" button, you will then be taken to a screen with three options. Here is an attempt to somewhat clarify those options.

    1. Swipe to Factory Reset - This is the most common way of wiping, and what is most commonly used for installing a new ROM. This option is considered a "Clean Flash".

    2. Advanced Wipe - This option is used to specify partitions to wipe. It is generally okay to select all options here EXCEPT "Micro SDcard". This can also be used when doing a "Clean Flash".

    3. Format Data - DO NOT USE the "Format Data" button. If you select it by accident you are going to be required to type the word "yes" to even proceed further. You have been hereby WARNED. If you refuse to heed this warning there is a good chance you will soft brick your phone.


    Q. Can I flash to a slot?
    A. Yes, you sure can. Expect bugs or issues, expect the reboot option in the power menu to NOT work.

    Q. How do I flash a theme?
    A. Flash the rom, then flash either S5 theme or GPE theme. You then can flash a color option for the GPE theme.

    Q. How to I go back to stock?
    A. Dirty flash the rom. (see above)

    Q. Somethings are acting strange, is there a easy fix?
    A. Boot to SS (safestrap) hit wipe, now hit advanced and check the cache and delvic cache box's ONLY! slide to wipe, reboot system.

    Q. My signal is weak, is it the rom?
    A. I highly doubt that, it's related to the modem and some are better than others depending where you are. Check out other Modems here.

    Q. Where can I find the add-on'?
    A. In the DK store. Hit menu/system settings/device then DK rom control.

    Q. My battery life isn't very good, how can I find what's going on?
    A. Download "wakelock detector" and "better battery stats". Then if you are still confused, take a screenshot and post it.

    Q.What is that Bar on the top of my Status Bar?
    A.That is the Miui Battery Bar, this can be altered or turned off in DK Rom Control under Status Bar Mods/Miui Battery Bar.

    Q.Why do I have 2 batteries?
    A.After first boot, You need to pick one to disable in Rom Control.

    Q. How do I make my status bar transparent?
    A. Go to the Rom Control and then tap status bar mods. Go down and tap "Status Bar Gradients." Now there should be 2 color options, just tap a color, then tap the box on the bottom right because that is the transparent. Do the same for the second color.

    Guys,

    It causes me a lot of pain to say what I am about to say. Many of the closer DK members know how hard this decision was for me. The time has come for this project to come to an end. Due to personal reasons, I will be getting rid of my Note 3. I will not commit to anymore updates. There is a possibility that there will be another maintenance release in the future, but I will not promise this. I really appreciate all the support over the last year from everyone. A lot of friends have been made, and that goes beyond this thread. I am certain I will see a lot of you on new devices down the road.

    Those of you running 7.1, I apologize for leaving it with loose ends. I encourage you to do one of the following:

    Use the tried and true 6.1

    or

    Support the work of @dwitherell and his Tweaked rom, or @RErick and his Alliance Rom. Both of which are great developers and I can only hope to be capable of their level of work. Please support their work!


    Does this mean it's the end of this thread? No. DK is a family, and this thread will be left for communication purposes.

    Sincerely,
    Brian
