Just putting this info out there.

For those who were having issues with poor bass reproduction while playing music, of which I was as well, I can confirm that the issue is resolved in CM10. No bass distortion what so ever while playing music. I observed this while listening to music using the Play Music app.

Not sure what the issue was, just glad it's fixed and hope that it doesn't get borked, as it once sounded great on CM9 as well.

Just an FYI as I know this was a big issue for many of us.

---------- Post added at 11:57 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:54 AM ----------

I'm not on CM9 anymore, so I can't really offer much.

The one thing I can say is that you might want to try the Stable release of CM9, which is like a final release, or the latest nightly, as RC2 is quite old.

Hope that helps. Regardless, you should upgrade from RC2 though.

Good luck.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] :
Haven't had this problem. I thought I remembered a commit for something to do with sms forever ago. Definitely upgrade from rc2 as someone else stated. No point staying on it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Mordak:
I am having the same issue. However, I use GoSMS Pro and not the stock messaging app. I am running the most recent nightly as of today 8/21/2012.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] qwyjibo:
i updated to the latest stable release and still have the problem. i was using go sms and switched from that to chomp and still have the same problem. even tried the stock app and had the same problem. i reset my APN's to stock and even tried a modified one. same issue.

i was using go sms as well.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] qwyjibo:
to further add to the sms issue...

i can send MMS messages. i sent several pictures with no problem. it's just when i try to send a few lines of only text that it will fail. i've tried different IM programs and changed APNs. none of it helped.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Yarbo:
I don't mean to piss anyone off, but this thread is huge and I've tried to search - all I find are people complaining about this issue, but no solution.

Ever since I started using CM9 (nightlies, and now the stable final release) I am unable to transfer files to the phone via USB. I have to take the SD card out and plug it into my computer (big pain in the ass cause you have to turn off the phone to get the SD Card out).

Is there a solution to this issue?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Finagle69:
I use the stock Messaging app. In settings, it should have come default with "SMS to MMS" which changes long messages to mms, but it's set at 3 messages. Maybe you can try reducing that to 2 to see if that works. Otherwise, mine will auto-split to a second sms. Not sure why yours doesn't do this.

When I plug my phone into a PC, I get a notification for USB connected. Then I tap a button to "Turn on USB storage", which allows transferring of files. You do not have this?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] qwyjibo:
had already tried that and set it to 2, 3 and 4 just to play around. none of them worked.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Finagle69:
That's strange. I'm assuming you've tried a full wipe? Especially trying to make a long sms before doing any restoring from TiBu or anything? You'd want to rule out any prior settings carrying over and disallowing this to function correctly.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ZaidSenall:
When you connect the phone to the computer drag down the notification screen and tap on the one that says USB storage (I don't remember exactly what it says) and it will take you to another screen where you can enable USB storage and you will be able to copy files from the computer to the phone... I'll post a screenshot tomorrow...

Oops... didn't see your post... lol...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ZaidSenall:
In go SMS pro, in advanced settings, make sure that split large messages is not selected...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] qwyjibo:
yes. i've installed CM9 several times with full wipes in between each. i actually haven't restored anything either. this was a completely new/fresh install and i re-added everything including accts. manually.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ZaidSenall:
Well, Tango says that they don't support custom ROMS on rooted devices, so good bye Tango...

Skype works perfectly, by the way...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] qwyjibo:
yep. don't have that checked. i DO have it checked in the stock messaging app though. tried it checked/not checked and it hasn't made a difference.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ZaidSenall:
Did you unchecked it on both? I have never had that issue...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] qwyjibo:
yes.

unchecked on both = won't send

uncheckek on stock app/checked on go sms = won't send

unchecked on go sms/checked on stock app = won't send

i also just tried to check and see how many characters would make it not send. i can send 160 characters and it will send. if i try to send 161 or more characters it won't send.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] myculito:
Which recovery and version number are you running?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] qwyjibo:
CWM 5.8.4.8
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] myculito:
What carrier do you have your cell service with? ATT? Straight Talk?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] qwyjibo:
ATT. some family plan i share with my wife.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] myculito:
And I assume you've confirmed the APN settings are correct?

Shoot man, hard to tell what's causing your issue. Prior to me moving over to CM9 from stock ROM, I was had CWM, and had all kinds of issues with the phone.

My suspicion was the recovery, so I switched from CWM to TWRP. Did my 3x factory reset/cache/dalvik wipes, reloaded CM9 stable, and BOOM! Many of my naggling issues had disappeared.

I thought I had read somewhere that some of the CWM versions don't properly clear caches, hence why i switched to TWRP. I think it's worth a try at this point, since you've exhausted all your other options.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Finagle69:
That's a great point. I started using TWRP when nightlies first started. Give that a shot.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] qwyjibo:
i've tried different APN's to no avail. finally just did a reset and went back to what they were.

i suppose i could try TWRP. i've used it before but came back to CWM because it finally got updated for the note and works so well with CM9, etc.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] qwyjibo:
ok. wiped everything and installed TWRP. installed CM9 and tried again. same issue. wiped everything again and installed CM10 just to give it a shot. same issue.

so i don't know what the problem is.

would flashing a different modem make any difference? i just downloaded i717-ICS-UCLF6-Modem.zip and was going to give it a shot.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] myculito:
I'm pretty sure that modem above is the stock ICS modem. If i'm not mistaken, that's the one that's included in CM9 already.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] qwyjibo:
well i'm out of ideas then.

i'm going to give the modem a shot. at this point i'm at a loss what to do. i don't want to restore back to my old rom.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] myculito:
I'm on Straight Talk, and now that I think about it, I had an issue first time around using the built-in APNs that were pre-loaded in CM9.

Let's try this one more time, but let's do this in the following order just to make sure we rule out any nuances:

1. Do your factory-reset/cache/dalvik wipes three times in TWRP

2. Download a fresh copy of the CM9 stable build here: http://get.cm/get/jenkins/5833/cm-9.0.0-quincyatt.zip

3. After it installs, let it reboot, then go back into TWRP and install GAPPS.

4. Once everything is back up, go into System Settings-->Wireless&Networks-->Mobile Networks-->AccessPointNames

5. Go into EACH APN, hit menu key ,and hit "Delete APN"

6. Once all three are deleted, hit menu key again, and do "New APN"

7. Use the following APN settings:

Name: AT&T

APN: wap.cingular

Proxy: leave blank

Port: leave blank

Username:WAP@CINGULARGPRS.COM

Password:CINGULAR1 (yes this is in CAPS)

Server: leave blank

MMSC: http://mmsc.cingular.com

MMS Proxy: wireless.cingular.com

MMS Port: 80

MCC:310

MNC:410

APN Type: leave blank

8. DON'T FORGET TO HIT MENU AND SAVE!

9. Reboot the phone, let it come back up, and test again.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Finagle69:
Honestly, the last thing I can think of is the kernel. I'm on hotwire r5s1 for OC as the one that's comes with the rom doesn't have that. Are you running that one?

Also, idk if it matters but I'm on the LTE APN even though I'm in a HSPA area.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] qwyjibo:
at work now but will try this tonight and report back. thanks.

hmmmm i don't know what kernel i'm on to be honest.

and i have the LTE one selected as well.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] armyboy11b:
All you have to do is check..it tells u what kernel your using in settings

And sincebu don't know what kernel you have then im guessing ur on the roms default kernal
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] paleh0rse:
Nevermind...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] qwyjibo:
tried this last night. same issue. could not send any IM over 160 characters. under 160 was fine. and i could send a MMS no problem.

so i gave up and reverted back to the team perfection rom i was running. it's not as fast and snappy as CM9 was but everything on it works for me at least.

thanks much for all the help from everyone. i appreciate it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ZaidSenall:
If I were you I would try going back to stock, and then rooting and flashing CM9 and start fresh... I know you probably exhausted all your tries already, but if you still got one more in you, that's what I would do...

Do the proper factory reset, of course...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] nlghtcrawler:
No matter which other ROM i flash, I'm always finding myself back on cm9
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Finagle69:
Is anyone else getting screen flashes?

Particularly, if you're in any app other than the home screen. Just tap the status bar and let go. The notification tray will start to show, then quickly go back up, but my screen flashes then.

I'm on 9.0.0 stable, with hotwire r5s1 kernel and the latest ICS gapps. (429)

Edit: fyi that's the same kernel and gapps I used through the night lies and rcs with no issues.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] eastside770:
Has anyone tryed using hangouts by Google? I'm using it and I'm not getting any sound people can hear me but I can't hear them. Someone check this out I'm running latest stable
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] taob:
Same problem here. It worked once with a friend, and never again. Same combination of hardware and software, etc. Tried a bunch of other combinations too, and it's always the same: they can hear me, everybody can hear each other, but I can't hear them.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] eastside770:
What do you think could be the problem
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Neobug103:
I really don't understand XDA, every developer puts out a post with their new rom and they just say "here download and install this". Then we have massive 100 page posts of everybody who can't get it to work or have this problem or that problem, it is really frustrating. I myself have been flashing roms for years now but I only tend to do it once every 6+ months when I'm getting tired of my old rom, and by that time everything has completely changed and I have to figure out things as if I were a newb again.

In hopes of having less people waste more time, people can download the latest signed .zip version of TWRP here: http://goo.im/devs/OpenRecovery/sgh-i717

You can flash that through your existing CWM. Once you've done that you need to go to http://get.cm/?device=quincyatt and install the latest .zip but because TWRP is bugged you need to install the .zip to a sub-folder on your sd card, such as sdcard/mount/ folder. Then you need to add to the same folder the latest version of gapps for CM9 here: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Latest_Version/Google_Apps

before you flash them you need to do a factory reset > wipe cache > wipe dalvik cache three times. After that flash quincyatt followed by the gapps zip. Then wipe cache/dalvik and reboot and it should work for you.

I didn't even do a great job at putting those instructions together, it just seems like every dev purposely wants their thread to get 100+ posts to get more attention - and they do that by not providing clear instructions and thus you have a never-ending number of "this isn't working" or "I have this error" type posts. If I had the info I put above then I could have just saved 3+ hours of my life that I spent in trial/error.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] h3r3tic:
I'm really confused how your lost. If you have flashed ROMs for how long you shouldn't be lost. Every single dev has the same op about flashing. It doesn't get any simpler.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ManelScout4Life:
If you can't figure it out, you really shouldn't be flashing
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] taob:
If I knew, I would be suggesting a solution rather than describing the problem. ;)

---------- Post added at 12:16 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:03 AM ----------

I just noticed something else about this RC2 build of CM9: the orientation sensor appears to be active at all times. I'm pretty sure that with every other ROM (including CM9 for the Touchpad, CM7 for other phones, stock ROMs, etc.), when the display shuts off, so does the orientation sensor. This could explain why people report faster battery drain with I717 CM9.

I noticed this difference because one of my Tasker profiles has changed behaviour. I have a profile that shuts off all network connectivity and app sync if I flip over the phone between the hours of midnight and 8 am. This allows me to get through the night with only 2 or 3 percent battery loss.

In the past, if I flipped the phone over while the screen was off, nothing would happen. The orientation sensor was not active. So I would wake up the phone first, then flip it over. The Tasker profile plays a sound effect when it is triggered, which is how I know. Now, I can flip over the phone even while it is asleep, and the profile will trigger.

I may temporarily go back to stock TW to see if the old behaviour comes back, and if battery life is better.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] :
I am unable to repeat your results on 8/19.

Created a Tasker profile for face down with task to play a short sound. It would only activate with screen on.

Could be you need to update past release candidate. I can't get mine to play the test sound when screen off. Tried adding delay to screen lock and everything I could think off. Works as expected.

Checked Tasker settings?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] saturnspike:
I have a similar issue. I can start transfers to the SD card via USB, but they go at 300-600KB/second and the phone will randomly reboot midway through the transfer. Pretty annoying.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Finagle69:
Exactly the same for me. Worse for me as I'm usually syncing with DoubleTwist. So I can't just take the card out and transfer that way. I have to let it reboot then restart the sync.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] taob:
Thanks, it looks like Tasker can enable sensors even with the display turned off. Might be a CM9 thing or a Note thing. This is the first time I've noticed it happening, so I can't tell when the behaviour changed. Since my Tasker is configured to only do this while plugged in, this should not affect battery life while not charging.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] :
Yeah, I don't know if you noticed it when plugged in or not. I was unplugged when I ran my little test and it defaults to monitor when screen off if plugged in. You could change it to no so it never monitors when screen is off.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] paleh0rse:
Yes! I was getting them with the 8/27 Unofficial as well. :(
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Ltilt2:
that's an easy fix, I think. Let me check build.prop
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] paleh0rse:
Changing the max overlay from 3 to 2 in the build.prop stopped the in-app flickering I was getting, but it didn't fix the homescreen flickers -- I had to Disable HW Overlays in developer options to get those to stop.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Web-head:
I've seen others do what paleh0rse did and have that do the trick.

If it doesn't though, what I found that works is if you activate Google Now, and say "Google", to start the voice search, and then say "weather". When the weather card is coming up, it should also say the forecast. When the card starts to come up, turn up your volume and you will hear her speak. If you don't get the volume all the way up before she finishes, just do it again.

For what ever reason, the volume is all the way down on many of our Google Now's. Not sure what volume it is associated with, but just like playing a YouTube vid to adjust media volume, you just need to let her talk while you adjust her volume, or else it will just turn up the ringer volume.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] thair7391:
I've noticed that when you change the build.prop setting, it severely impacts graphical performance. Once I changed the setting from 3 to 2, rebooted then changed it back from 2 to 3 and rebooted once more, the flickering was gone and I didn't have to sacrifice performance! Let me know if that works for you.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] myculito:
How are you guys getting Google Now or the girl to speak? When I do a search, it's just doing the general Google search voice recognition.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Ltilt2:
Mine fix all flickering once I changed it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] paleh0rse:
Did you have to turn off HW Overlays in dev options as well, or just the build.prop shuffle?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] thair7391:
I only changed the build.prop setting. Did you reboot after changing it though? If I'm not mistaken, the HW Overlay option in settings and the build.prop setting are controlling the same toggle. I could be mistaken though.

08/28 Build Issues??

Has anyone had issues with the latest build? I installed it this morning but was getting communication errors with my Google services. I used CWM, cleared cache and installed, same as I've done on the last three nightlies. From what I could see the latest build seemed "faster" than the previous builds (if that's possible).
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] dsmitty166:
Ask her what the weather is
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Web-head:
You may not have activated Google Now.

If you did a full wipe and then restored without setting up Google Now, you'll get the regular Google Search.

Do a full wipe of factory, cache, dalvik, and system. Then flash the ROM and gapps and wipe cache and dalvik. Reboot. Setup your phone as if for the first time. Let the Play Store download all your apps. Once it's done, go into Google Now and it should have a series of prompts with a blue "Next". Keep hitting Next till you get to the last prompt that asks "are you in" and select that. It will then load up the Weather Card and configure itself.

Then you can reboot to recovery and restore your data and everything should be good to go. If you don't setup Google Now before you restore data though, it won't work.

Hope that helps.
