Snote force close - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717

Ok heres my issue I cannot seem to find a direct answer. I am running ICS Tmobile ROM (jedi 4)and everything seems to be kewl but for some reason I cannot get s pen to work. I was sent a copy of s memo but s pen has been nothing but a failure. I have tried flashing it, loading over the apk's and all sort of stuff and I cannot figure it out. The program would not load at all, any ideas?

S Memo will not run on that ROM. It is not an ICS Touchwiz based ROM. Try third party apps.

I am sorry I provided the incorrect information. Jedi 4 is a touchwiz based ROM and the application that is in question is not smemo but snote s memo works correctly. The reason why I had chosen that specifically that ROM was for, please don't flame me, touchwiz yeah sure is kinda laggy and bloated but I like it. And in the end that is all that matters correct?

Did you install the driver files associated with S Note?

Clear app cache and app data?

Thank you for the response and yeah I did clear the cache and everything else with all the associated files but it doesn't seem to work .

AOSP /datadata Restriction

I'm on PoolParty (uh, 1.4 iirc) on my Fasc, and it has the /datadata limit; the partition is small, and if I have too much data in there (too many apps or large caches, and when I say "too many" I mean around eighty, including the standard Gallery/Email/etc. apps), everything starts crashing. First the keyboard, then every single app. Can I fix this somehow? I've done searches and haven't found anything, and I'm getting an S3 soon (would an AOSP ROM on that have the same issue?), but I'd like to at least have this thing stop crashing.

Try an ICS ROM annd kernel.
ICS roms have the same issue. There's a new app in the Play Store called "Datafix" by zatta that can help you manage which apps whose cache you want moved out of /datadata to /data/data. It works wonders.

Oh my god, that's beautiful. I love you.
Edit: it appears it won't recognize my phone as being compatible. Could you throw me an apk?
I guess they haven't updated the app to run old older AOSP roms. Here's the thread it came from. Maybe you can still use the script.

Google Now on ICS

Is anyone using Google Now to good effect on Ice Cream Sandwich?
I've had a little search around (on the XDA app which is an experience in itself...) and ended up trying to flash a zip onto Omega v13.1 but to no avail. I don't know if I'm making a glaringly obvious mistake though.
Anyone able/care to share their own results?

My Galaxy S III is running XXDLI7, so it's already got Google Now on it. However, my Note, Note 10.1, and One X are all still running ICS. I've put Google Now on all of them and had fantastic results. However, I didn't flash the package with CWM. I extracted the *.zip and copied over all of the files and directories manually. That way I can make sure all of the files and directories have the correct permissions set. For example, when I flashed the package in TWRP on my One X, every file and directory flashed had it's permissions set to 033 (--- -wx -wx) for some weird-ass reason. Because of this funky glitch, I had to go back and manually set the permissions for every single file and directory. So when it came time to put Google Now on my Note and Note 10.1, I just did it manually. Went smooth as butter!

Thanks mate
Seems it's definitely possible but not using the apk. method that I used.
I'm not ready to delve into the realms of manually inputting stuff yet so I guess it's time to do some reading to find out what it's all about.

Google Now on Stock Rom.

Alright, following This Guide I got Google now working.
To summarize what I did
1. Root phone using the Korean Root method
2. I unlocked the bootloader and installed CWM using Project FreeGee
3. I booted into CWM and installed This zip.At the I was writing this guide, I freegee was on version 0.5
4. My phone restarted and froze up about twice before finally staying booted. It seems to have normalized now.
edit:Right now most things seem to work.
If anyone finds a better version of Google now, please let me know and post the how-to.
I didn't make the zips and all I have done is follow the instructions and write down my personal experience. I give full credit to the author of the original post for their instructions/work they did. However, since the LGOG doesn't need project Butter, Google Now is the main thing we are missing from 4.1 and it should help ease the wait for a stable AOSP ROM. If anyone has any issues let me know and I'll make a list.

Right now the main thing that doesn't seem to work is Calendar/setting alarms.

THis is great news. Right now I'm pondering whether to get this phone or the Note II, and Google now (which I have on my Captivate running SlimBean 3.0) is the one thing I really cannot imagine giving up.
Question: when you say that Calendar/settings alamrs don't work, do you mean that they don't work at all, or that they don't show up in Google Now?
I was referring to not working in Google now. Although i did manage to set an alarm with it shortly after this post.
Also fwiw I had the captivate too. I try to stick with nexus hardware.

I couldn't get it to work.... Musta done something wrong...
OK, I can't get it to launch links for me after searching. Anyone else? I'm wondering if it's because I removed Chrome and the LG browser?
Sent from my LG-E970 using Tapatalk 2
Edit: Works most of the time but I also have issues launching links. I still have chrome and the stock browser installed, it will launch them I just have to click on them multiple times. I'm also occasionally having issues exiting to the home screen using either the home button or the back button.
Links can be a little stubborn for me but, usually open.

Any way to uninstall?

Titanium backup.
Sent from my LG-E970 using xda app-developers app
Uninstall stock voice search with titanium backup or you will get problems with android keyboard. It makes it try use them both for voice typing. I'd assume it may be the cause of any and all problems.
Edit: scratch that... Since installing Google now I get all kinds of freezing reboots. Caca. Then again it just be saying f u to nova launcher. Clearing cashes fixes it until it happens again.
Has anyone had good luck with this?

working for me too, aside from the link clicking issues
One of the cards says there's an update available in the Play Store. When I go there it says my device is incompatible. Is there something we could tweak to the build.prop in order to get this update? Or will that mess things up due to the nature of how it was installed?

Thanks Keith. I'll give it a try when I get back.
No problem.....I also have a 'dark' version of the stock sms apk (got it somewhere here on xda) if you want to try it instead.......

I don't know how to explain it, but I want the MMS apk like the one shown here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/deviceForum/screenshots/1055/20130327T094824.jpg
Is the one you gave me the same one, but appears different on my phone because I'm running CM?
Ah....I don't think the stock mms apk will work on CM as the apk needs the touchwiz framework in order to function.....
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app
not sure what touchwiz is, but I'm guessing there is no workaround or way to get the stock mms apk to install on CM roms?
Thanks for your help Keith. Appreciate it!
Touchwiz is the Samsung launcher. It is what gives Samsung phones their look and feel....the user framework of the device. Porting parts of that framework to non Samsung ROMs simply will not work.......
As an alternative, you could look for apps in the themes and apps section for an app which has been made to look like 'stock' but which functions on a non stock ROM......
Or....
You could go for a whole new ROM..... one of the 'hybrid' ones.....a stock based ROM but without the bloat and with aosp/aokp functionality. I've used two and am still using one of them....chamelion and aliance.....I'm not going to recommend either as that's against XDA rules, but both of them will let you download themes and tweaks that let you customize the look of the base ROM so that it can resemble (or not) the full stock package........

Pushing AOSP apk's to system/app

I've been trying to push some AOSP style apps to system/app but I keep getting force closes on them.
Examples include calculator.apk and mms.ask. Any idea why these apps won't work?

The S4 is a TouchWiz phone, not AOSP. The AOSP framework isn't there, so many AOSP apps won't work. That's probably true for most of them, actually.
What you're doing is kind of close to taking an iPad application and trying to flash it, then asking why it doesn't work.

Also, Samsung apps are in system/priv-app, not system/app. Some may work, some may not. Generally fixing permissions and ensuring file name matches should help.
I tried that too. Oh well. Guess I'll just settle with freezing stock apps and installing AOSP versions the regular way. Thanks for the help.

good luck...but like it was said, tw doesn't have ASOP framework as part of it
I've found a few apks that have been repackaged that I can simply install. Just trying to create the illusion of AOSP.
