I seem to be having the gps problem you were experiencing and can not find the gps lock app
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] FormeriPhoney:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.eclipsim.gpsstatus2

I also go into maps, then settings, turn on Location from there. I also turn on wifi as well and find that I get a faster luck that way.

In that app, go to tools, wipe gps data and download gps data fresh. Try not to move around too much when locking in .

That's always works for me. :beer:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] sublimaze:
#1 & #3 are definitely abnormal. I can't speak for #2 because I never use it. Did you select sd swap option during flashing? Clean wipe & reflash using default options, and see if the problems recur.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] cdorrell12000:
My wifes I dirty flashed 14 to 16 no problems. Mine I dirty flashed 14 to 16 and got the samsung eye that wouldnt go away so I clean flashed 16 and was good to go. Both using perseus kernel.

It statys constantly now if it is turned on, prob went away when you clean flashed because it is turned off

Also anyone who was having issues with Flash when you install the rom dont install flash from their and seems to be fixed

Is their a way to get the torch to stay on when the screen turns off? Also is their a way when starting the camera app that it doesnt kill bluetooth audio?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] lostnuke:
Zero issues for me as well.

I did a full wipe though (coming back from 4.2.2) using beans kernel and superuser.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Aesrys:
For #1, how is your SD card formatted (exFat (the default format the phone would do) or Fat32)? Depending on the combination of format and what kernel you're using, that might cause the problem for #1. I only messed with panorama once and it was on an AOSP rom. For #3, like other have suggested, are you using SD swap? Or did you set the option in the camera as to where the pictures will be saved? It defaults to internal but can be set to external (though I'm guessing if you're having a problem with your external as in #1, this could be related).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] LancerV:
Zero issues for me also
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Caveman419:
Same here. I have dirty flashed from 14, clean flashed and have tried both Super User apps now. I am getting none of the freezing issues, black screens, gps issues...nothing.

I have had all kinds of sync issues with my email also. I tend to setup several email addresses due to my job but they don't get sent thru. My battery also drains like crazy because exchanges services are always running. In the end I used my Gmail account and forwarded all emails to that account. Now I get emails and have a good amount of battery life too.

Fixed the SD issue... so I backed up my data plugged in to a laptop. Formatted the SD and reflashed with the SD swap (PJ) Even through I did the swap with out the reformat of the SD (which didn't work) for some reason that fixed the SD being unmounted.

I still can't figure why my picture app will not save pics... WTH

anyone ?

Can anyone confirm if the "Root Browser" in Rom Toolbox works for this?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Aesrys:
Did a clean flash of B16. Like others, seemed to run into problems with SuperUser. Once I replaced it with SuperSU, no problems so far.

One small question. The changelog mentions the full calendar widget being added back. Is that referencing the S-calendar widget? If so, I can't seem to find it. I see the normal calendar widget, but not the other.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] snapcrackpop:
Does home screen rotate in 16?

I'm still on 14 (working great) :D except the home rotation.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Aesrys:
My home screen rotates (and did on 14 as well). I don't use the stock launcher though, I use Nova, so that might be the difference.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] JustDriftin:
Same with me, once I changed to SuperSU the phone settled down and now works great. If you are using TW you should be able to see it, if you are using some other launcher you won't see it. It is one of those TW things.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Aesrys:
Duh, I should have remember that. Thanks, need more caffeine this morning I guess.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] repsol_23:
Double post. Please delete.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mentalcase87:
Damn this thread updates a ton and fast. I had thought the exact same thing, so awhile back I went to general and tried to get help to resolve it. That's when I found out it was only this rom that seemed to be causing the issue. On Meanbean it still had a little bit of a delay but it was far better than the experience on here. But on the other hand I love this rom lol. Hopefully someone knows of a solution of some sort.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] shrike1978:
Black on grey text

Some portions of the theme have black on grey text and it's really hard to read. I've attached an example (in the paste/clipboard popup). Is there any chance this might be addressed in a future version?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] porkandbeans:
Good Rom!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] danibri82:
This thing is freezing all the time even on SuperSU.

Froze this morning when I opened the Camera, and just froze now. Been stuck on this screen now for 10 minutes. I can turn the screen on or off, but it stays frozen. B16 w/ stock Kernel. Going back to B14.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Ahirman:
I don't understand all the issues everyone's having. I clean flashed with perseus no sdswap. And I only had a small issue with superuser and rom toolbox. Fixed that with SuperSU.

I'm loving this rom. Works perfect for me. Even got Google wallet working!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Bfitz26:
i was having this issue too... not sure what the issue is did a few battery pulls unlocked phone and open app bar on numerous occassions it froze in the status bar folders any where randomly and restored previous b16 nandroid and it was fine i am really baffled by this...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] danibri82:
Wish I understood too!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Porkshanker:
I just installed ROM Toolbox Pro and SETCPU both gained root access through superuser with no problems. I did a clean install full wipe.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Ahirman:
I wasn't able to create a folder using rom toolbox and superuser. I go to add a folder, name it and click ok. 2-3 seconds later superuser would pop up and I would allow, but no folder. It's like it wasn't actually giving Rom toolbox root access. SuperSU worked fine.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] cubsf4n:
As most of you might know, Google I/O is on right now. Updates to Google music and Google search just rolled out but the play store tells me that my device isn't compatible. Is this because it is baked in the rom?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DaRkL3AD3R:
I just want to come back with an update on the notification audio cutout problem when receiving an SMS.... the suggested trick worked! Disabling the auto-delete messages option in the messaging app completely fixed my problem! :D Thanks to whoever mentioned it.

And it's only been a few days so far, but I think I can safely say this also fixed another little bug.... the annoying magical self-turning on screen. Where you'd click the power button to turn off the display, put the phone down, and magically it was back on. Well I think this was all due to the auto-delete messages feature. In retrospect it really only happened after I would rapidly send a text message and quickly toggle my display. It could be the delete message feature was keeping the phone awake and caused a bounce back on in the screen.

Fingers crossed that these two ugly problems never rear their heads anymore :D

Is there anyway to disable the built in Ad Blocker? It is causing Hulu to crash, since it can't load the ads.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] MrSmith317:
Hey Beans. Thanks for a great ROM. 1 problem. My SD is being read twice when I look at settings -> storage. /mnt/sdcard0 and /data/media are both counted against me. Is it possible in the next rev to either fix that link or remove one or the other? It's just a minor annoyance but it's there nonetheless.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] shrike1978:
Installed fine for me. Already listening on All Access. Have you messed with the dpi?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] cubsf4n:
Yes I have. I changed build.prop back to 320 but its still not working.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Summit1:
I am having issues with the built-in ad blocker also. Adding sync services like ES File Explorer -> Dropbox in cloud is blocked. I'd like to get around that (fix) without having to reinstall the ROM and not install the ad blocker. Is there a way?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Aesrys:
Did you modify anything other than DPI in build.prop, like the device type or something similar? Maybe try clearing data on the Play Store and Google Services Framework, reboot, and try again.

---------- Post added at 02:29 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:26 PM ----------

I can't remember, does the ROM actually have a built in ad blocker, or just a modified hosts file? I know there's no Ad Blocking app in the drawer that I saw. Maybe go to /etc and create a new, blank hosts file (backup the old one), set the correct permissions, and reboot.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] poopoo152010:
I had a similar issue on b14. It was suggested to me to download adaway from market. I did that, ran and then disabled it and it worked perfectly. B16 I just unchecked ad blocker in aroma installer.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] BladeDreams:
^^^^^^

The torch fix would be a nice add or fix !

Although it doesn't kill it completelyy for me at least... just the time / space as if the "click" for taking a picture was still there - disabled that so not heard.

Annoying. ... but can live with.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] JustusIV:
So i just updated to beans 16 yesterday and flashed the new modem vramc3 and all of a sudden my internet speeds are complete crap. I flashed and aosp and flashed back to beans and it was crap on aosp to.

Its is next to unusable.

Thoughts?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] sublimaze:
Some people are getting better performance with the new modem, others are reporting worse performance. Just flash the modem you were using before :thumbup:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] JustusIV:
Ok maybe it was just bad timing and our tower is having issues. I found another verizon user and they are having bad signal also.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] danibri82:
For some reason Beans stuff hates me now and I dont know why.

Froze when opening Spotify on the subway while having no signal.

Froze this morning when rapidly opening the camera app, then backing to the desktop.

Froze when opening Papyrus to take notes during a meeting.

Froze when texting a friend and the rotation went too far and flipped to the side.

Going to go back to stock to make sure my hardware isn't getting ready to puke.

Flashed back to beans14 fresh earlier today, and it still is acting up, went to 16 and still troublesome.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] minazaki:
I'm happy with 14. May just hang tight until 17 with all the bug reports. This is, by far, the longest I've gone without a flash drive I've had the phone. Goes to show how stable 14 was/is.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] danibri82:
Doubt the extra post is needed, but it froze again moments after my last post. Pulled the status bar to see what came in for email since I got a notification. That's all she wrote, froze again. I'll watch the thread, but for now I'll try a dead stock rooted 4.1.2

Thanks for the dilligent work, Beans, I'm sure it'll get fixed.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] sublimaze:
Are you OC/UV? Do you have any other battery tweaks or mods installed?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Aesrys:
Or maybe try pulling your SD card as well and see if something is acting up that way. I haven't had that problem with this phone, but I've seen it with other devices in the past.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] MHatter469:
Locked up... or not...

I dirty flashed with OTA to 16 and when everything came up it would lock up trying to pre-load Google Wallet. I pulled the battery several times and everytime it booted was the same. So I restored and uninstalled Wallet, since it doesn't work anymore anyway. And then allowed the OTA.

Boot up, and about 5 seconds after being up and having signal, it locks up. The screen turns dark and nothing is moving (it started downloading updates and the down arrow froze). I could turn the screen off with the power button, but turning it on still was dark and unresponsive.

I was doing something else and just let it sit there. After about 10 minutes it popped up with SU requests for all of the apps that request SU.

I am guessing the lock had something to do with the new SU I was reading about in the thread.

Just thought I would throw out my experience in case anyone else is going through the same.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] svan71:
i would do a odin back to stock and start over...still having problems its your phone...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] flascrnwrtr:
Had to do the install from the Web version of the Play Store and it worked like a charm.

---------- Post added at 06:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:22 PM ----------

Had the lockup issues that others are experiencing. Did a full wipe x 3 (cache, Dalvik, system and data). Flashed V16 with stock Beans kernel. Once it was settled, I installed Super SU, froze SU and then (upon confirming lockups were no more) deleted SU completely. I have run like a champ ever since. Installed new Play Store (4.1.6), new Google Play Services (3.1.62), new Google Play Music, Google Hangouts and the new Google Search/Now and I couldn't be happier. Everything is running smooth as glass. Thanks, Beans, for doing an amazing job as always.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] sublimaze:
I am not convinced all of the b16 issues are related to Koush Superuser, but perhaps Beans could upload a version with SuperSU instead, and see if the problems persist.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] FormeriPhoney:
That worked, thanks man
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] imablackhat:
Device status normal. Anyone else? Shouldn't it be modified
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Sokudoningyou:
Ok, now I know I'm not crazy; is anyone else missing their orientation sensor? Seriously, ever since B14, I've noticed my orientation sensor just goes kaput after a while. Clean flash, it works for a while, then it just kind of....disappears. I'm going bonkers trying to figure out WTH is wrong.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] danibri82:
None. Stock everything on perseus
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] flascrnwrtr:
Have you tried with the stock kernel and replacing Superuser with Super SU? Solved it for me. Also, wiped everything 3x or you could use Superwipe.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] BeansTown106:
my thought on this is use the stock beans kernel the others havent had there source updated to VRAMC3 yet..

any apps that dont sync uninstall and redownload its a bug with restoring apps

we need 4.2.2

only reason i dont add it is because i think battery life is much more needed over waiting a half a second for the phone to wake up lol

oh i definetly am going to pretty sure i just skipped 30 pages of talking about the superuser app and changing dpi's lol

hell yeah! nice to know :)

i havent even had one lockup im very curious about this :/ its gotta be a certain app thats installed or something id imagine

when i find them ill fix them theres maybe 2 or 3 minor spots that have this

so weird.. i will def look into it i am not having one freeze though so im not sure what it could be other than kernel

thanks this worked

it will sorry for this..

looking into bugs at the moment plz if they arent on the google docs page please list them it makes my life so much easier...

sorry if i missed some questions i literally had to skip like 20 pages of superuser and dpi talk..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] BeansTown106:
it could be custom kernels that are causing this because i know none of the custom kernels are updated with vramc3's new source code yet.. im running beans stock kernel and have had no issues thats why i find this soo weird..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] tfly212:
Did you happen to change anything at all, no matter how minor? Reason I ask is I had no problems with 16l, then I changed the default folder for drafts in K9 from the drafts folder to inbox...should be nothing, right? Wrong...got freezes on a ton of things for the next hour, had to pull battery, etc. I changed K9 back...smooth sailing again. Makes no sense, but there was something there.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] BeansTown106:
i modified the checks to come back as normal :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Saleian:
Thanks beans for finally making the email background black.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] sublimaze:
Before reverting to stock, try this:

1. Verify md5

2. Move everything you want to keep to external memory

3. Wipe everything you can, including system & internal memory

4. Flash with all default options, stock kernel, no swap

5. Complete setup wizard, reboot, then leave phone alone for 10 mins

If it still freezes, then I have no idea what to do next :confused:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] drum747:
I did a clean install of b16 last night and restored all apps from Titanium Backuo. All seemed well. I changed my dpi to 240 using rom toolbox and when it rebooted it just hung at the lockscreen and was unresponsive and then the screen went black. I waited and the screen came up again still unresponsive. It just kept rebooting and hanging at the lockscreen. Finally had to restore my nandroid of b14. I was using perseus. I will try it again with the stock kernal. Love me some Beans! Thanks for the hard work Beans!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] michigan66:
Beans, I had freeze ups on beans stock kernel too.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] FormeriPhoney:
Which email would that be?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Sokudoningyou:
Nevermind, a Google search gave me an answer; the Multiwindow app in 4.1.2 may be the culprit. I'll have to flash back down to 4.1.1 again, see if I get my orientation back.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] P2o8wer:
I choose visual voice mail in aroma., but I have no clue if it works or not.. I've read and searched but didn't see anything about it. Does anyone know about this?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] BeansTown106:
i just clean flashed again stock everything with every option installed and i am getting no freezes.. gonna grab all updates fix a cpl things and revert to supersu.. im curious if i should just release this as 17 or wait til the end of google I/O im sure they are gonna update more stuff tomorrow lol..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] FormeriPhoney:
I can't believe the amount of freezes and lock ups I'm getting. First time I've had stability issues on a beans rom. I had to pull the battery 6 times tonight. Stock kernel, no mods or themes.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] IvanNCase:
I had that happen pretty often 13 and 14 that I can remember and it after a while I noticed it only seemed to stop working when I had adw set to not rotate. Since then I changed adw to auto rotate but use xposed app settings to not let adw rotate and haven't had a problem since 14 and never had it happen on 16 yet.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] BeansTown106:
are u being serious or joking? cant tell lol u posted right after me so thats why i ask

well this is what i have changed for 17 so far..

and did anybody get these freezes on 15? if not then i think i have an idea of what the culprit is..

No freezes on 15, two freezes on 16:

2. Froze using Youtube last night, uninstall Youtube and reinstalled and everything is good

Hope that helps.
