Non flickering ROM? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717

Does anyone recommend a ROM with 4.2.2 that does not flicker? Personally the ROMs rum great other than that but it becomes a problem when it is almost constantly flickering and I can only use the phone in portrait mode. People always ask what happened to my phone like its broken and just like oh no see I have this really good rom on it, its just a side effect haha

I tried the disable overlays if that works I'll be very happy! And I have some free time tonight I'll check out that ROM! Thanks!

I had that problem bad..for awhile until I went to one of the newer Carbon nightly's then it just went away. Disabling hw overlays helps for awhile on other roms then you get a RR ....I don't know but carbon seems to be running the best (for me) the last month or so that I've had it on here and I've used 2 dif nightly's so far.
This problem has been my biggest issue on this phone. Its always on lock screen only right after waking the phone and then it stops after actually unlocking with the swipe. Nice to see that I'm not the only one.

Really? I thought reboots were a thing of the past. How long ago did you "did"it? I haven't had any since about the second build. And none are being reported in the thread.

Another vote for Blownfuze's AOKP, 4.2.2 ROM. The newest 7/22 version is rock solid, no flickers(since many versions ago), and does everything I need it to do.

CyanogenMod 10.1.2 and using SD-Booster, Autokiller, and Greenify have eliminated all screen flicker, random reboots, and other issues. My phone is now super smooth, super fast, and has eternal battery life.

CM 10 Jelly Bean 0.01 chrwmhoffmann

Has anyone tried the new alpha Jelly Bean 0.01? From the beginning and after having trouble with inofficial cm9 nightlies I always used his cm9 alpha. How is the stability of his cm10 alpha compared to cm9 alpha? Or compared to CM9 inofficial nightlies?

You'd better wait a while. If you read the first post of the CM10 post, you'll see what works and what doesn't. CM9 is much more stable at the moment.
The nightly CM9 builds have had a lot of problems with moving to the new kernel and trying to support both NT SKUs. If you want something newer than CM7 but still pretty stable, CM9 0.05.1 by chrmhoffmann is pretty good. It's highly functional and I have never had a SOD or random reboot. From all the chatter, it looks like CM10 is making rapid progress, probably thanks to a lot of the hard work put into CM9 carrying forward. Right now, I'd just remind everyone that patience is a virtue and good things take time.

Hi solar plexus
you are right, the first post sounds scary but so did the first post of cm9 alpha by chwrmhoffmann but it worked really well from the beginning as far as I remember But as stated in the next post it was not based on kernel 3.x. Has anyone really tried the cm10 0.01 out? I can't because I'm currently on hollyday.
Hi strouperman
you are right I'm as well using this 0.05 alpha version by Chris Hoffmann. It works great from the beginning even if the first post was as scary as the one for the cm10.
But has anyone tried the cm 10 alpha 0.01 out? at the moment I can't because I'm on hollyday.

I gladly would unfortunately I'm on an 8gb model, so kinda out of luck until the 3.0 kernel works with it . Have to applaud the devs though, quick work jumping right in and getting an early release out already!

I briefly tried out the first posted build of JB (after backing up my system, of course). Despite the expected issues alpha, it seemed surprisingly functional. The issue I noticed off the bat was that it defaulted to phone UI (which I think is balls ugly on a tablet). I assume that this can be fixed by adjusting the DPI. The rotation issue was bad, but I hear that is already been fixed. The part that makes me want to wait until this is further along is mostly losing the awesome CM9 settings I've grown to love.
P.S. - For me this build operated longer without a random reboot than the last CM9 nightly I tried about 2 weeks ago. I messed around with it for about an hour and didn't have any reboots, which is about 58 minutes longer than the nightly. I have to wonder if some component to the 3.0 kernel that is deactivated for JB is the major culprit for the random reboots.
thanks for this overview I appreciate this very much. So I will trie it out after my hollyday. I hope it will soon be as stable as the cm9 0.05.

Well i had to go back to cm7 beta. The random reboots weren't bad for me just surfin the web. But when my kid started playing games i got tired of having to reboot it about every hour. Loved the JB though. Hope the devs work there magic and fix the random reboots. Keep up the good work devs.

Had one when I first loaded it. So I set the display time out to 30min and used wake lock. After that the only thing was I had to manually reboot it every time my kid was playing games on it for awhile. The screen would go blank and the backlight would stay on.
Had the same issue here. I'll patiently wait for the good work and switch when the time is right.

Version .02 works really well . It only reboots if you leave alone for awhile and unlock it now. And one while trying to make a tegra 3 app work. But Google now works like a charm, and most apps work, and less apps are restricted in the market now. Only the phone ui part sucks. Basically no landscape at home screen or searching through apps. Besides that annoyance I've been using it as my daily for 2 days now with few problems.

Hmm.. I've just left my WiFi on (set to never turn off during sleep) and the screen set to 30 minutes and haven't had the black screen in a a few days.. Granted not really any heavy use atm though, just xda, eBay, and some other stuff
Edit: I guess JB didn't like me saying that... was going to edit something and then black screen
I attempted to use the newboot.zip used previously for the CM9 versions that enabled the 8gb NT to use the ROM, and was met with the black screen with the two androids on it (to show that its the newboot)... but it would not proceed any further than that... i was hopeful, but i'm sure that someone eventually will come up with a solution to allow 8gb users to partake in the jellybean goodness as well
... EDIT!:
After wiping the data/cache and dalvik, reflashing JUST chrwmhoffmann's CM10 0.02 and Gapps, i thought it was giving me an error... after about 5 minutes at the boot logo, it rebooted... and then booted into the google account setup!... keep in mind, this is on an 8GB Nook Tablet. I will post screenshots when i get back home tonight
Here are the images for the boot and settings from my above post

[Q] best ICS or JB ROM?

Hey guys, I'm working a lot of hours and I need to have a reliable phone, which ICS or JB ROM is best? I'm new to this phone, so, I don't know what my options are.
Sent from my MB860 using xda app-developers app
I would say epinter one is the most reliable one for now. i bet he is cooking somthing good with his atm ROM and the leak also, so it would be even better.

Did you say reliable?
Then forget about both ICS and JB and go with GB. Any variant will do.
ICS/JB ROMs are just too unfinished yet to be a reliable daily driver, IMO. People are woking hard on them though, so there is no doubt they will one day become as reliable as good old GB.
Agreed.

This is a very accurate summary of where we stand. I'm still running Nottachtrix 1.3.1 even though Nottach left the Atrix over a month ago, just because everything works on it. Bluetooth, wifi, HWA, Ubuntop, all cameras, and even a decent selection of themes for both android and linux.
But with the new leak libs, there is sure to be a fantastic CM9/10 ROM that takes advantage of them. We just have to be patient.
Hi
If you're not using thoroughly your phone, the CM10 form Epinter is now reliable enough for a daily use.
I was using CM7 since months, and after trying CM10 last week, i'm still using it and have found no real limitations for a basic usage.
I'd recommend you to keep a GB based rom if you want to have the most reliable system and if video recording is a primary need for you.
Just my $.02: I don't even use the "latest" GB 2.3.7 ROM: I've returned to Neutrino 2.6 EE (the latest is 2.91 at this writing). CM 7.2 RC1 was the most stable + efficient ROM from the CM gurus for my Atrix. I charge my phone once every two or three days too.
Think about driving a car that everyone laughs at that's never needing to go to the shop. Gits ya there, gits ya back, reliably and without anyone really paying attention to it, and it just goes and goes and holds its own against everyone else. Newest doesn't always mean best; trustworthiness does.
Epinter's CM10 worked OK for me despite the few well known bugs.
You might give the brand new AtrICS ROM a shot. It's hard to believe that it could already be as stable as it claims to be, but with working hardware acceleration, it should have some bugs fixed as compared to CM10.

epinter JB rom
I am using epinter's JB rom and it works flawlessly.
Thanks,

I switched from epinter's CM10 to AtrICS today and found it to be a fairly usable. You trade some features for others.
I prefer the interface of CM10 to AtrICS, but AtrICS feels really snappy thanks to the HWA. I'll probably get used to ICS after a while. The Camera works well, but, like others I noticed that after switching from the back camera to the front, there was some corruption on the right side of the screen. Going into Camera Settings and unchecking then rechecking the Widescreen box fixes this. There are problems with the unlock screen of AtrICS; it can be slow to appear when you press the power button and I have seen the screen turn on for a split second before turning right back off. If you let the phone go into a deep sleep, you may see a black screen for a minute, in my case the unlock screen did eventually appear. I've had one reboot right after closing a bunch of apps running in the background then trying to open a browser.
WiFi works great with AtrICS and mobile data feels faster than I remember.
My mobile gone hot after a few minute use AtrICS, and experienced network lost. The phone also hot with epinter 's version.
Restored TopSmart1.3. GB has the stablity I trust.

Does your camcorder autofocus very often (around 1-5 seconds)? Mine does with Somebody's CM10, I'm just wondering if it just me.

Most stable JB for daily usage?

Hi, in your opinion which is the most stable JB with best battery time?
The focus is only and only on stability and battery, not features, what are your thoughts?
I had tried Hellybean before and it acts funny with the radio and my radio used to go off for hours and it sucks battery alot like 2 months ago, I then flashed icszen 1.8.5, which is okay but it starts having trouble after 2 weeks of usage like screen doesnt responds to wake ups and f there's a call coming, i have tough time responding to it as the phone has trouble waking up.
So I was considering a switch to JB again and hoping now development would have reach more stable levels.
Thanks!
Using slimbean from a couple of months and I'm very happy with slimbean. Also tried hellybean ,cm10,remics jb but not satisfied with any of those .The latest 2 8 version of slimbean is awesome don't have any problems except GPS .its silky smooth ,fast,stable .try it once it is not going to disappoint you

You ask three people and get 3 different answers. My suggestion is try a couple and see what you like. I'm using paranoid android, its very very smooth and there will most likely be an update soon with working GPS.
I would try SB, PA, CM10, and try the latest HB. See what works for you.

You are asking a question where there is no right answer. And it has been asked before MANY MANY times by others.
All answers will be subjective, and the only right answer is for you to try each of them. Maybe start with TW-based ICS roms, because they are most stable and close to stock experience. Once you know what you like and what you don't like, then, try some JB roms and others for different flavors. You can tell which ones are popular by the number of posts on the thread.
I am on Nebula (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1963437&highlight=nebula).
I started with PA for awhile, and loved the custom DPI option. It was awesome. But started to miss S-Note/S-Memo. The alternate apps and pen gesture worked, but they weren't the same.
So, I went to Padawan V5. It was very good, with all the stock features. But, there were some AT&T stuff popping up in contacts which was annoying.
Then I went to Nebula, basically the same as Padawan, but based on Canadian ICS rom. Everything works, no bloat.
I have been thinking about going to Padawan V8, but now that my fiance has Note2, we use NFC, so I decided not to.

Yep still on fj. Check your apps, I had installed kik a while back and it would just murder my battery, barely 8 hours with 42min of screen time. Any app with push notifications does partial wake locks so apps like Facebook, news runners and weather monitors.

Addicted to flashing ROMS

I love our somewhat reliable/stable JB ROMS (thank you, XDA Devs!!) But losing stock Note functionality with S-Pen (double-tap for S-Memo, press and hold for screen capture, Photo Editor) always kept me running back to stock Touch Wiz. I was a flash-ahloic til something I did broke GPS and made it unusable. So I Odin-ed back to stock and still couldn't get GPS working. Eventually, I took my Note to the AT&T Device Support Center and they flashed the most current Samsung Firmware and I'm good to go. I've been Stock, non-rooted for 28 days, 11 hours and minutes LOL.
So I've resisted even rooting my Note at this point. Just been playing around with different launchers and widgets. It's still fun just customizing the Note to my liking. But I found that lags and freezing still even happen on Stock non-rooted, things I used to blame on any particular ROM I'd flashed.
Now the flash addiction is creeping up on me...
Paranoid is looking really good to me right now

I feel the same way. I have been a flashaholic since i had sonys xperia x10a. I, myself, have fallen in love with jellybam on the note. it has treated me quite nicely. no forcecloses. only one reboot but i dropped my phone so i think that was just from the battery popping out and in. other than that this rom is near perfect. its the best of all worlds. amazing battery life. hopefully we will be getting all those extra features soon when the official jb comes out.

Eventually, I took my Note to the AT&T Device Support Center and they flashed the most current Samsung Firmware and I'm good to go. I've been Stock, non-rooted for 28 days, 11 hours and minutes LOL.
So I've resisted even rooting my Note at this point. Just been playing around with different launchers and widgets. It's still fun just customizing the Note to my liking. But I found that lags and freezing still even happen on Stock non-rooted, things I used to blame on any particular ROM I'd flashed.
Now the flash addiction is creeping up on me...
Paranoid is looking really good to me right now

Got the perfect cure for your flash addiction...try one of the Padawan Roms!!! My wife has been running V7 and now V8 for over a month...and has had 0 yes, zero. restarts or hiccups, I was amazed!!! The v8 is based on the rom from singapore, it's fast tight, and has lots of tweaks built right in...and it's a touchwiz rom so all the spen stuff works great. I'm a convert. Good luck

I liked the Padawan ROMS, that guy is a great developer. I'm amazed that he doesn't even have an AT&T Galaxy Note, but he does solid work. The only thing is that I'm not so fond of the blue themed icons.
That Jellybam ROM sounds awesome tho

Take a deep breath and flash on my friend There isn't a cure Hell I am running a perfectly stable ROM and setup but can't wait to find a hiccup to justify the need of flashing another ROM.

You are not addicted then.
Addiction is what I have, I downloaded everything I needed to root and flash a custom Rom before I received my note. The minute I received it, i rooted it and flash a custom rom. That's addiction.

Hahaha that reminds me of myself. I ordered a black S3 64gb and even before I got it in my hands I was already downloading the ROMs and applications that I wanted on my phone. It reminds me very much of the windows mobile days.

I remember flashing my first phone- Motorola V180 if I'm not mistaken - and I use to tweak all my friends RAZR's then I went to the T-Mobile MDA

I started flashing on the AT&T Tilt 1. Those HTC smart phones were the business. It was not only a ROM flashing frenzy, but finding the perfect radio too. And the .ruu blues

Oh yeah and keeping an eye on the green LED light....good old days.... when running GB on the tilt2 was like dreaming about having JB 4.2 on our Notes.
I now think, I'm just going to let my contract end and see where I go from here. I've read good things about the AT&T version of the Galaxy S4...we'll see or the Nexus 5
Me to I wish we had multirom like nexus 7 or Motorola defy I don't see why not we have twrp then we could multi boot man its the best

You can just have 2 diff backups and flash when needed
Just an update:
So I ended up flashing Jellybam and what a joy that ROM was! So many customization options and it just ran smooth. That is until I got a Random Reboot.
So then I flashed Paranoidandroid, put on LMT and found that it didn't work as well as I'd hoped as a replacement for Swipe Pad. Anyway, I proceeded to customize it to make it my daily driver when RR strikes 4xs in an hour.
At this point, I go running back to ICS: Novena. I dig the boot animation and that ROM has always been solid for me. And of course everything performs flawlessly: no RRs and great battery life.
But am I content? LOL
Lurking in the Blackstar Dev thread, I read about the combination of X and Flappjaxx ICS 3.0.2 kernel.
Getting to the point of this post:
That combination is AMAZING! And not in the hyperbolic sense. TRULY AMAZING!
This feels as fast as any JB ROM I've tried. Tho I'm not OC/UV, I'm only using Wheatley and battery life is PHENOMENAL!
So I'm still enjoying my "OG" Note and glad that we have a sharing community in XDA forums and gifted dev support, but if we never get any new ROMS for the lack of a source JB kernel from Samsung, I'm now on my Daily Driver.
Holla back if this combo works for you too.

That rom/kernel combo is a favorite of mine as well ...
I also enjoy cm9.1.0 with the FJ AOSP kernel ...
Both are rock solid for speed and battery life ....IMHO
Those kernels are simply the best running code I've ever used ..
And the wheatley governor is ....well ....amazing on the note.
My thanks go out again, to our incredibly talented developers, and all of our loyal users.....for making the note run the way it was meant to be ......g

Thanks g, I'll have to try that combo as well then.
On the goo.im app, the gapps that's "paired" with CM 9.1.0 is ICS 20120429. Is that the same gapps version you use for that combo?

I don't know what will happen if you do that, but BSX is an ICS ROM and won't be compatible with a JB kernal. I recommend installing goo.im from the Play Store and search for Flappjaxxx in there: results will show his ROMs and kernals. Good luck!

Nope I think that's a ROM and although I haven't flashed that one yet, if it's a new ROM maybe Flappjaxxx has the 3.0.2 kernel already cooked in there. I'll be trying that ROM out soon I sent you a PM.
