I like the aosp dialer. I have searched both xda and Internet to find out how i can get it on my phone with stock rom. I have tried to push Google dialer and contacts to system. I can install them but i can't use them because of fc.
Anyone with a idea or something that could help..?

You can move to aosp rom
AFAIK TW is too deep in the system, I think it is not possible without breaking something. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.
Yes i it is deep, therefore I didn't delete Samsung's dialer...etc. I am actually on aosp now. But sometimes I need s-pen, gear menager...

Yes I will also to move aosp. But as long as I have random reboot, I can't move. The most note 3 user have random reboot problems with aosp.

I think most of those random reboot issues are gone. I am on Slim rom, Lean kernel, and did not have any issues for weeks. It all depends if you are using 'nightlies', which might be unstable, or official releases. Every rom has official 'stable' release once in a while. Stick to that and you will not have any issues. If you install slim rom, go with weekly 7.9, not the latest 8.0 (new release, although stable, you should probably wait for 8.1 or 8.2). If you go with cyanogen, install M10 release. On top of that you might want to use stable kernel, such as lean kernel, for additional speed and battery life.

I will try it. Actually maybe I have tried it before. I guess reboot problems causes by bluetooth. It happens when I connect it to my car. Not always but often.
Btw, i have also a problem that exists in every aosp/cm rom. You know when you tap and hold an app from app drewer you have two options on the top of screen. One is app info and the other is uninstall. After a few reboots the options disapper. You can still move the icon to the top and choose one of options even these options are unvisiable.
Any help?
I don't use bluetooth, so I can not tell. As for the icon problem, never seen that before, but it is definitely related to the launcher. Which one were you using, stock, trebuchet, or nova? Slim comes with nova and doesn't have such issues.

Not sure if this belongs in general or in Q&A, but as it's supposed to be more of a discussion thread, I put it in general. If a mod disagrees, I'm sure it can be relocated.
I've tried both this and the Chinese I9220 leak, and none of them are good enough to be daily drivers for me. But they give me something to look forward to as the feel and speed of the GUI is just amazing compared to GB.
To sum up my main gripes about the ROMs:
Chinese I9220 leak:
Unstable bluetooth; Disconnects and will not reconnect without toggling BT off/on on handset side.
Hang; Whole handset just hangs. Need to keep power button pressed > 10 secs to force reboot.
Contacts application performs really bad; Stutters and hangs all over, even FCs at times. New favorites tab is really crap compared to old one. (BIG pictures of your favorites, no "most called" option.
Dialer no longer recognizes my incoming calls from contacts that has country code in their phone#; If someone calls me and I have stored their # in the format +47xxxxxxxx, it will only show up as a number on incoming call. As soon as I edit the contact and remove the +47, it will show up as normal.
Minor annoyance; A lot of preinstalled Chinese apps; these can be easily disabled under the application list in settings. That will make them disappear from your app drawer. Some of the apps tie into TW quite a bit, and I found no way to sort that out, but I am sure you can fix that as well if need be.
Minor annoyance; Color of address bar in stock browser is black on black, which makes it kind of hard to read.
Minor annoyance: Not all languages are present; can use English, but need to hack locales to get correct display of phone # etc.
Minor annoyance; Swiftkey X tablet not woking as it should. Does not show in landscape at all.
N7000 leak:
Showstopper, No sound on calls. Did not bother to play around with it too much after I found this, but also found it to be a bit less stable in general than the I9220 release. Quite a few TW apps FCing, and you needed to flash CSC twice to get a working keyboard.
Minor annoyance; Languages missing. Same deal as with the I9220 version.
Minor annoyance; Problems with graphics in some applications. Some applications like Swiftkey X tablet not working as it should.
So now I am back to stock, on the fence again. Really, really looking forward to a fully working release. The taste I have had here convinces me that the handset really will show its potential a lot better in ICS than what they have managed to do with GB.
If anyone has found solutions to the problems I list here or other problems I did not find, please post them here so that we can find a way to make these ROMs a daily driver as soon as possible.

at the moment:
chineese leak:
amazingly fast, even smoother than gingerbread with custom rom(rocket rom)
no color banding at calculator
video player isnt working
sammy leak:
laggy
color banding at calculator
so far i found these factors. But chineese leak can be used as daily rom.
I'm using chinese rom as daily now.
Chinese leak :
Much faster than XXLP1, also quite a bit more stable. Contacts app is slightly laggy but still worlds better than the one in GB. I'd still prefer stock ICS contacts app. With build.prop hacks it works well. BT works fine for me, although I don't use it a lot(Just to transfer a couple of pictures around)
Video problem : Fix by installing gapps and using stock ICS gallery(I deleted Gallery 3D, it's ugly compared to ICS' one).
XXLP1 :
Well....sucks. Laggier, more unstable than Chinese leak. Presumably older build, voice on phone doesn't work.
Currently using the chinese leak as daily, deleted crappy chinese apps and other samsung apps that I don't need + added CM9 Music app, build.prop tweaks, Nova Launcher, ICS Gallery, Chrome Beta.
The chinese leak hangs because of background ANRs. Other than that it works great.
Initially I wanted to cook a rom based on the chinese leak with AOSP apps (What I really want on my note is the TW S Pen apps + AOSP, or something close) such as AOSP contacts and AOSP SMS, whilst removing all the chinese crapware and some of the samsung crapware (eg: samsung apps) but I think I'll wait until a slightly more stable version comes out..

+1. Should temporary sticky it too. Prevent moronic comments like:
Ok so gone from chinese rom to this one and i gotta say, SAMMOBILE you succckkkk man, you kept us waiting for this pile of doggy doo, this rom seriously sux, crash crash crash, no matter how ya flash it, its poo, slow, laggy, sound static issues, absolutely awful, the unfinished cm9 has less bugs than this.

Not a great thing to say to someone that doesn't actually create the rom..
My intention was indeed to try to prevent the dev threads to be flooded by nondev and nonrelevant posts like that.
I will let this thread live a little and see if I can compile a list on each leak to sum up. Hopefully others that have a little more patience than myself will find ways around a few of the problems we already identified.

i am also using Chinese leak ROM as daily one and it works awesome with all bloatware freezer or removed with TB. Nova launcher works perfectly. I also use exDialer since the stock one is sooo crapy. I just wish I could get rid of TW notifications and get the stock ICS one.
I'm using the Chinese ROM set at 240 DPI (I read that going lower will cause it to freeze and require re-flashing), TouchPal Keyboard, Go Launcher, Go SMS (other SMS wasn't recognizing existing contacts), and I deleted most of the local apps. I haven't really had any problems with it. I think it is good enough to be a daily.
I would like to merge some of the CM9 stuff with this ROM but I think I'll wait for more experienced hands to do it.
I am also on the Chinese rom and it working just fine.... I haven't had any FCs or force reboots and overall its quite slick also ram memory is more than stock gingerbread firmware (816 vs 800mb)
Unstable bluetooth; Disconnects and will not reconnect without toggling BT off/on on handset side.
Hang; Whole handset just hangs. Need to keep power button pressed > 10 secs to force reboot.
Contacts application performs really bad; Stutters and hangs all over, even FCs at times. New favorites tab is really crap compared to old one. (BIG pictures of your favorites, no "most called" option.

I'm quite sure you are doing something wrong if all that is happening to you. My handset crashing was resolved when I found out it was an incompatible app, and my contacts with country code works fine.
I am using Chainfire's repack + Gapps and everything seems to be working fine.
There is only issue i have seen no solution to, that is the google calendar is not syncing. It does not appear on my google account at all.
Anyone able to help?

Hmm... Not sure if there's a lot that can be done wrong here. Wiped everything and installed from Mobile Odin.
Now it also has decided to turn down the ringtone and SMS sound. It has become extremely low in volume even though I have set it to max in the Settings - Sound - Volumes.
I think this is down to inconsistencies in the ROM and not me being unable to operate it...

Edit: Rebooting solved the sound issue. For now.

Hey folks,
If you're experiencing problems with calendars - I believe the problem is actually that you are using another version of the Google Apps (and not the one provided in post #1)
I had found my Google Apps ZIP elsewhere with the filename:
gapps-ics-4.0.3-20111217[1].zip
The ZIP you actually need to restore:
gappsv7.1.zip
As soon as I flashed that and gapps_fixer.zip the Sync Calendar option appeared!

I've very few problem with the Chinese leak repacked by chainfire.. my phone doesn't vibrate on incoming notifications or calls.. anyone has any idea to fix it? I cant see any option to enable it though I can see the option to set vibration intensity for ringtone and notifications.

Good evening. Lastnight I updated my system to the latest CM - CM10.1-20121227 Nightly. Everything went smooth except an odd occurance is happening now. I noticed after the reboot, that all my 'favoriates' that I put on the home page bar (sorry new to N7 and not sure the proper name) disappeared, so I remade them and went about my business. Today after logging in, I noticed that they are gone again, so remade them and they seemed to stay put this time. But I just logged in again (after not using the tablet for about 4hrs) and yup you guessed it, they are gone! The only thing that stays on the bar is of course the 'button' that brings up the apps/widgets screen. So, what am I missing here? After the last 3 updates, I've never ran into this problem. Sorry for the noobish question, just new to the scene. Thanks in advance...
Are you talking about the 5ish icons at the bottom of the launcher? If you are, I think this is caused by a bug in the default launcher (see the comments at the bottom of this page http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/28994/ ). There are quite a bit of changes getting committed to trebuchet, and when using nightly builds, you are the beta tester. You can install a different launcher that has been tested by more people and is considered stable.

@Gianptune - Yes, the '5ish icons' at the bottom of the page. I knew after researching CM, that any nightly builds would be ' as is ' because they are considered work in progress, but I have CM selected to only notify me of when a 'stable' build is avail. Thanks for the link and can you tell me, or recommend a popular launcher to use? Did not know that you could replace that one. (BTW that link was broken on this puters IE). Thaks again

Hi all,
Not to hijack the thread, its almost the same topic i would guess...
I was running 12.22.12 nightly, i think, and all was well until i updated to the 27th. that when i noticed problems with the shortcuts at the bottom as well. Tried to flash back to previous version and noticed that I lost the quick settings pull down (upper right, opposite of the notification pull down)
I have tried to flash every single CM10.1 i can find and not a single one would bring it back.
Has anyone ran in to that?
thanks
I had this issue going to 12/27 too. I did not have it happen on today's nightly however.

That's strange, on CM10.1 thread someone just reported it with latest build.
I dont know why, but when i install 12/15 unofficial CM10.1 build, the pull down is not available as well, yet i had that build for several days two weeks ago and everything worked fine.
basically any CM build i install does not have the pull down. only if i restore my backup of the stock rom it comes back.

How to flash
First you have to be rooted
If your device is not rooted I recommend you to take a look here: [GT-I9505] CF-Auto-Root
Flash the recovery of your choice
Touch CWM, Normal CWM or TWRP use SGS4 Flasher to flash the one you prefer, it's very easy.
Download the ROM and the recommended Gapps. Put everything in your SD card
Reboot into recovery
Wipe data*, wipe cache and dalvik cache
*If you're coming from another ROM, even PACman 4.2.2
Install zips from SD card
Enjoy the ROM
FAQs
Q. Don't have bootanimation, why?
A. Because you didn't use CWM or TWRP.
Q. My baseband version it's unknown, why?
A. Read the first answer.
How do I make the status bar transparent?
A. In your homescreen, open quick settings panel and choose Hybrid Properties (the one with the name of the launcher on it, there, slide to the right and set the status bar color to transparent.
Can I use a custom kernel with this ROM?
A. Yes, you can. Just make sure that the kernel is for AOSP.
This ROM bricked my phone
A. No, you did it. Because you were too stubborn to read.
Ask for help instead of blaming.
I have two issues -
Google Now/Google Voice Search seems to trigger quite often and I don't know why. Surely it should only trigger when I press the home button?
When I swipe in a ribbon from the right, two ribbons appear. One I can scroll, I see the other behind it, not moving, which then falls away (I have 3 second fade away)
Any ideas on either of these? Thanks.

About the Google Now activation, in AOSP it activates with the menu button, maybe that's why you don't feel when it presses, I was having sort of the same issue but I assigned new custom actions.
With the ribbons, I really don't use them.

Yeah, I see I can hold menu down to launch voice search. It's definitely not that.
At one point yesterday I double taped my screen to open my app drawer and two seconds after the drawer opened, Google voice searching opened!?
I've even been looking to see if there's voice /sound activation of something... It's really annoying.

I use the home button to wake my phone, but half the time it wakes AND does the home button action. If in cycling, it wakes and drops to the home screen instead of Strava. If in at the gym, it closes Jefit. If i was on the home screen, it asks and launched voice search!

Fast Dormancy will save battery life if your carrier supports it. I won't go into the details. However, if your carrier does not support it, and your phone has fast dormancy on, it will drain the battery as the process keeps trying to look for the carrier-side fast dormancy feature.
SOMEONE PLEASE HELP!!!
I guess it might be back to the touchwiz bs...

You can always try different apps, like Greenify or Better Battery Stats, also, KT kernel is very battery friendly but I prefer the stock kernel with that apps and the battery is always good.

Seems good to me. The only two things pushing me back to a Samsung based ROM are the battery life and I find the camera unreliable. (Often opens but with a blank black screen)

You can try with KT kernel, it improves the battery life considerably, reduces the heat but you may lose some smoothness compare to the stock kernel.
The camera seems an unresolved issue at the moment, but all the cons that the ROM currently have, for me, are very depreciable against the features.

In only use KT because of the battery life, that was very poor with the latest build, but if you're experiencing a decent battery life my suggestion is to be in the stock kernel.

No, you can't use that kernel because it's not labeled for AOSP ROMs, you have to be careful when you flash kernels because them can really brick your device.

Hi,
I flashed Omnirom 4.4.2 nightly 2014-03-17 yesterday and then updated it to the 21st nightly using the built in update.
I can't figure out how to enable/use the multi-window / split screen feature.
I don't have the "Add to Split View" option in "Recent Apps" manager like shown in so many blogs and how to videos, no matter on which app I tap and hold.
The only options I have are "remove from list" and "App info".
I also tried enabling OmniSwitch but that didn't seem to help.
I flashed superuser from TWRP so I do have root.
Am I missing something?
I'm on i9300.
Baseband I9300JKEMC1
Boeffla kernel 2.1 (although I also tested with Omni stock kernel)

Now really, I did some more reading, do I have to install Xposed framework and XMultiWindow?
I thought this was supposed to be integrated into OmniRom.
Does it work for others?
What may be the reason?
After digging around I found out its not implemented by default in the final/nightly builds yet. I think you can patch it in.

Thanks for replying.
Do you know how can I patch it in? is there a flashable zip I can download (and maybe place in the FlashAfterUpdate folder) ?
I couldn't find more information about this (except for Xposed framework and XMultiWindow) - and found it strange that so many reviews and blogs show this feature with OmniRom and it's not there.
Thanks again.
Pyrocks
OK - found it:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2567667
I think that the fact it's not yet integrated in the nightlies should be mentioned in a more visible place. It's not so obvious as some might think.
To be honest I gave up on it after reading about stability issues. Probably why it doesn't get included in the night lies.
Aside from that, I have a Note II which had split view on Touchwiz and I never used the feature!

To be honest I gave up on it after reading about stability issues. Probably why it doesn't get included in the night lies.

Indeed stability issues, i gave it a try and ended up with a bootloop. Luckily the post also contains instructions for reverting the change so no harm done eventually, but yes, very unstable.
In all the forums and blogs this is like THE feature when peopele discuss about this rom. It has gotten too much publicity and too little discussion or work.
I also had toucbwiz and never used it, the reason was it was only for a limited list of apps. If it would be limitless and any app can be split - i'm pretty sure it'll end up being useful. That's kind of one of the reasons I wanted to try this rom in the first place (i'm not regretting though, it's mor:laugh:e stable than cm 11 nightlies).
Hope it gets fixed. Until then maybe I'll give xMultiWindow a try.
I have a D800 and have been running CloudyG3 for a while and also have used Textra for quite a while with no issues. I decided to go back to AOSP and initially went to EuphoriaOS but one issue I had (other than freezing up during calls) was that I had visual notifications from Textra but no sound. I uninstalled Textra, reinstalled, same issue. So I wrote their support and their reponse after a few emails back and forth is that it must be a ROM or phone issue. I then went to the other compilation of Euphoria: same issue. Currently on BlissPop: same issue. Both times I did clean flashes and did not restore Textra but reinstalled it. Any ideas on what else I can do to try and fix this? The stock messaging app is alright, but missing alot of the Textra features.

Try a rom not based on CM. CM based roms are terrible.

It's funny how pre-LL it seemed liked devs stayed away from CM more than lately. I'll have to take a whack at some others I just can't explain why Textra does that. Haven't tried other messaging apps bc frankly I haven't found one that works as well.
To be honest there are very few original roms out now. You have cm, slim and a few based off of Aosp. The reason St are simple compile wizards that don't do anything other then sync and cherry pick.

Makes me think of script kiddies from the security/hacker side. But I can't say anything or complain, I'm a user of said ROMs who tries to fix the problems he makes or finds

Thats pretty much what they are. That is why I make sure any rom I use is based on AOSP and not CM.
