Hi BeastyLeo,
I just flashed the latest release and i'm having lots of trouble The rom looks great and i so badly want to use it, but dont knw if i'm jinxed or something :-/ Please help me!!!!
1. The incoming phone call graphics is all messed up. The caller's picture and the caller info gets rendered 20-30 pixels below the top of the notification box and the bottom section gets cut off...
2. All the applications running started to behave crazy after a while. WpTask was active, and this is what happened - The task icons used to appear on the top bar (for example Activesync's icon), but the text used to be missing. When i brought up the context menu by clicking and holding the task, the rollout menu didnt list the name of the task again! I had options like Close, Terminate (with no Task names next to it like it would normally appear), and I couldnt kill the tasks at all! Even after i went into default memory manager of wm6, i still couldnt end the tasks. Only option was a reset....
3. The back button in the phone app comes with the sound, and now that slows it down for some reason
thanks!!!!
San
Ohhhh.... this is realy weird
Did you install the ROM with default options, or did you change anything?
This is horrible!

Hi Leo,
Thanks for your quick response!
I didnt do anything with the rom before flashing. The only thing though, was i didnt flash the radio file as i have 1.15 and i find it stable. The Tasks problem keeps happening, i had to roll back now to one of your earlier versions which works fine though....
Thanks, and i really appreciate both your commitment and great work!

If it's that bad I will try to do a bug release in a view days.
My harddisk of my laptop crashed and currently I'm trying to recover the data first. I feel sorry for you and I hope I can fix it asap.
-I noticed a view things with initflashfiles.dat after I decompiled our own ROM.
-Also PocketCM I'm not realy happy with, I think I'm going to take that out.
-Office I changed for our previous one.
Well... I'm looking into it.
Cheers,
Leo

Hi, i have the same problem in phone operation so that i have to use another one. One thing still in dark: when finished uprom progress, i check phone with my Exec close position but it was hanged the screen very dark, have to SR the PDA again working. I don't understand why.
i wanna change this text in my theme:
(Its not my theme image right now but is the same text)
change SIM
sorry for my terrible joke, if you want to change your fonts take a look here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=531504, if you want to change the name I guess it's not possible:it is sent by your operator.In fact it changes when you roam. The only trick I know is to override with your homecountry operator name all roaming operators names, but that's not what you're lookng for.
Bye
its possible to make disappear and put another text in the right, left corner or center i saw in other prints in this forum
Anyone?
Or try this, perhaps it works
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=359563
I don't know if it works on Topaz.
thanks i go try
it works on my D2
but when i have a soft reset, lost the configuration...

have a look at these registry values:
RegWriteDWord("HKLM","\Software\OEM\PhoneSetting","Enable3GLongNamePrefix",1)
RegWriteString("HKLM","\Software\OEM\PhoneSetting","LongNamePrefix","3G")
my registry are equal, but when I reboot Personalize v2.0 configuration lost, and the "3G Yoigo" display in my D2.
it is impossible??
It works after many soft resets but battery discharges much faster (sometimes about 10 or 15 % during one hour and without using). I uninstalled it and battery life is higher again.
sorry double post
Thats weird. It works flawlessly on my TP2. I haven't had one problem with it resetting after soft resets or any battery drain. Which I couldn't possibly see how it would drain your battery anyways.
Hi
Just dropped by to ask some guestions bcs seems there are some knowledgement here I wish u understand my Engrish.
I bought a week ago SGS2. And bcs default is always default I begun to customize the outlook, like we all.
My first problem mostlikely is a hw problem bcs one of the dot missing on the clock on upper right corner. I mean it is now 07.30 not 07:30. Not big deal anyway. But then I saw also slight flickering of the icons on the bar. The rest of the screen is ok. On/off didnt help nor reseting the phone to its factory defaults.
Another problem is the wallpaper which seems to zoom automatically after cropping it in the menu. I tried both options but both of them do the same scaling. Im using ADW Launcher. The same problem was with Go Launcher and with EX version.
Third problem is dead buttons. At least email and Maps dont work. I thought I have done that icon customizing somehow wrong but they dont work also on TW launcher.
Should I RMA this piece or.... ?
I appreciate it if u could post ur toughts to my email bcs it's easier to get possible replies. Thanks in advance.
hi there!
just wanted to let you know that, for the last 2 days now, I'm experiencing this weird issue:
http://forums.androidcentral.com/google-nexus-5/334621-problem-half-blank-screen-incoming-calls.html
the lower half of the screen, when I receive an incoming call, is black (this wasn't so in the first 1-2 days). even if the caller has a contact photo, it's shown only like 1/3, the rest is black. this appeared like 2-3 days ago and didn't change after the small update I've succesfully applied.
the device is an 8GB version, bought from Amazon.de.
any1 has this issue? is there a fix to it?
THX!
I have fixed it.

thanks, but I wouldn't want to root my Moto G yet. especially since I'm kinda waiting for the KitKat update.
so, is this a bug, or is it a new "feature" of the later Android versions? because if it's the latter, it kinda sucks bigtime! the example in your other thread (where only the hat can be seen from the contact picture) is a good one for how stupid this is if it's really intended like this.
btw, this changed after 1-2 days of proper usage, I remember the incoming call screen to show the complete contact picture at the beginning, I guess it changed later. would it change if I'd reset the phone, for example?
did a factory reset and unchecked the option to restore settings and apps from the previous phone -- unfortunately, this didn't fix the issue. still, when there's an incoming call, i can only see like 1/3 of the contact picture. the rest of the screen is black...grrrreat!
Man, this is a bug in Phone.apk of Android 4.3 and I fixed it. You need root though if you want to change the apk.

I have just got a Moto G (4.3) myself and noticed for the first time, this new "feature" of having have black or blank screen during an incoming call.
somewhere else I even read someone's reply rationalizing why it was necessary to have a 2/3 black screen, so that the green and red buttons can be easily visible !!
couldn't the designers just added a small black background to the red and green buttons? that would show them clearly !!
anyway,
I installed this HD caller ID app, so now a nice big picture of the contact is seen.
it does run as a service, and though I don't like this, its still better than having to see the hair of my contacts calling me !!
it has many reviews, ratings and downloads, though u might check other similar apps too. or perhaps another dialer app.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=tw.nicky.HDCallerID
works good enough for me, has some themes where u can change how the green and red buttons show up.
I am loving the looks, I mean the Whitish themes everywhere, that's what I wanted for so long. Just some screenshots in case one want to look how some sections look, for fun, that's all. I am stating some of my views on it too, please share yours too.
However not everything is great, I don't like how they have ruled out the scaling on the options, you might encounter one or two mi****s every now and then. I mean when you tap on option of some app, the OK, Discard etc. options have no box outlining those options, so you don't know where the scaling finishes. They shouldn't have done that. Tapping with fingers (which is and will be mostly done) can't always be precise. I have already miss tapped in some places!
I also don't like how they changed the notification clock font size, the AM/PM font is bigger than the clock itself, weird. The lockscreen clock has also been redone, it now has a slimmer font that KitKat, which I am not a fan of.
And I don't know whether this is a placebo effect or not, but am I the only one who is feeling that the in call loudness (volume) is a little softer than KitKat? Don't know, can't be sure.
The Dialler app now goes full screen, I mean edge to edge, simple change yet looks much much better
The Multi-Window mode doesn't have any small U shaped notification any more when enabled at the side of the screen, you just long press the back button to enable or disable it.
The lock screen notifications are directly tap-able and expandable, instead of dragging down and then tapping it to expand it from KitKat.
I guess you guys can use this topic to report bugs, whichever you have found. If this topic seems like a duplicate then remove it immediately.
Have fun.
PS: One more thing, I flashed the Polish version of the ROM on my Arab N9005, 32 GB. I tried to flash the German ROM first, because it had multi CSC but it failed to flash, so keep that in mind, I mean I think the German ROM is meant for 16 GB variants only.
@devilsdouble can we make the white background black?

There is no 16GB Note 3 variant outside Asia... I recall there being an issue with the German rom when flashing over to another back when 4.4 came out. You needed the PIT file to sucessfully flash from the German rom to another. This could be related.

This! PLEASE! I suffer from migraines, any white screen causes needle spikes in my head! Imagine it for a second, every time you open a menu, it feels like someone drives a needle into your skull.

From Developer menu you can invert colors, but that's ... all colors. At least you get rid of white.
I noticed a bug: turning the screen on isn't smooth, it looks like a two step process light up.
A missing "feature": hovering your finger over the lockscreen no longer produces an effect.

And this is why I don't plan on upgrading before at least xposed works perfectly and there is a way to force a black theme onto everything.
Okay after playing with the release for couple of hours I am really not liking it any more (except the colour part). I mean as usual with Samsung, they hurried up and released an unfinished ROM IMHO.
First and the most annoying thing I am noticing that the WiFi password (WPA) is reset every time when I toggle Flight mode back and forth. This is extremely annoying and I am sure there's a way around it, or am I wrong?
- Never mind, it's solved now.
Secondly, where is the Mute/Silent option? I mean it's either Ringer mode or Vibrate mode, but there's no Silent/Mute mode!
Thirdly, the upcoming alarm time doesn't show up on Lock Screen! What the heck?
If someone can tell me how to get rid of the above please tell me, I am mainly annoyed by the first problem though, the WiFi password reset problem.
I've not heard the password issue before. Are you sure it's not just a bug?
The silent mode is split.
You have one toggle that decides how you are notified. (the old sound toggle) Sets to either sound or vibrate.
And another toggle that decides what you're notified about. (Looks like an entry forbidden sign). All, Priority or None. This is where you set Silent mode.
If you set this to priority, you can decide which apps notify you. (settings > sound and notification) Call, text, etc.
If you set it to None, you're not notified with sound or vibration. The notification still shows up on the screen.
Be careful, as this will also silence alarms!
I would suggest priority mode and simply disabling everything in its settings except alarms.
The alarm on the lockscreen, nope. They removed it. Fortunately we can always use GO locker.

I believe the WiFi passwords not saving issue can be solved by editing build.prop (that is how I fixed it on the leaked version, haven't updated myself yet)
Look for ro.securestorage.support and change it from true to false. I tripped the KNOX flag long time ago (doesn't change my warranty) and I haven't noticed any misbehaviours.

Yes, it was a bug, I mean it was a problem because my bootloader wasn't updated. Reflashed the ROM, all is okay now.

Yes, was playing with that Interruptions option and figured that, but still that's a weird way. Don't know why Google decided to ditch the Silent mode, well at least Samsung could have kept that.
Go Locker? Well I tried a lot of third party lockers last week, didn't like any of them. I guess I will have to find a different alarm clock app which could give me an option to show the upcoming alarm time on lock screen, it's such a nifty feature to have. There's a module in Xposed which shows the actual alarm time in status bar (instead of that damn alarm icon) but well Xposed is not yet ready for TouchWiz ROMs, but when it becomes okay I will simply install that module. In the meantime I will have to look for a alarm app, that's all.
^xposed alpha 1 already released have not yet used it though. Still playing around with stock unrooted rom.

Yep mate, just saw that. Is it working okay with TW Lollipop now, I mean no more boot loop? Don't really want to try, in case bootloop happens I will have to redo all those formats and all, which I simply hate.
The only Xposed module I badly need is MinMin Gurad, can't stand ads, and AdAway is, well, complicated.
