First, I just want to say that this is an awesome ROM. I've been trying out different ROM's but I think build 19 is a masterpiece. I've been bouncing back and forth between build 18 and build 19 to figure out which one for me has better battery life. Battery life seems to be better for me on build 18 but I don't know if that's because on build 18 I am using perseus and on build 19 I am running faux. Faux with boeffla has much more superior audio quality as compared to perseus with stweaks.

How is everyone's battery life? What is everyone getting on average? I just got to 59% and I've been off charge approximately 18 hours.. It just seems that perseus lasted a lot longer than that..

Overseas voice and data

Didn't end up needing to add any APN data...landed in Iceland, bought a SIM from Nova (never added the APN). Put sim in, sent the activation text and viola! Worked like a charm.

OTA Update Center does not offer Build 19

Hello,

I've had this ROM since I first got my Note 2 in March - love it! There is only 1 bug that I have come across, it has to do with the Alarm clock. The days of the week selected will randomly change. I thought maybe this has been fixed so I launched the update center and it offered Build 18 which I installed. I inadvertently selected a different battery icon than the one I wanted and couldn't figure out how to re-run the update to make different selections so I went to this site and discover there is a build 19. I launched OTA Update Center again but it says there are no updates at this time.

Why is that? Also, for future reference, how do I re-run the ROM installation so I can change my selections?

Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] emtee_skull:
Using a file Explorer find the downloaded beans 18 on the phone. Then boot into recovery. Seller install zip. Select 18 that you found. And follow instructions.

Or download 19 from the firSt post in thread. Run recovery. Install zip. Select 19.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] downhillvinnie:
I was using 19 and noticed less battery life too and some of the customization features weren't working, so I went back to 18 and noticed a big gain in battery life
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] 134k:
i can concur with the battery life on B18. I went back from B19 to B18 for this reason only-
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dragonfly1113:
So your saying we can but a sim card from any country and it will just work on the note 2 on Verizon? Im going to Italy next month so that would be awesome.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] statustray:
My battery life has not been so good since upgrading to build 19. It was much better for me on 18. I haven't went back to 18 yet, as I was hoping that Beans would release 20 and likewise that it would have improvements on the battery life.

Beans - bring on Build 20... hehe

PS I am running stock kernel... I forgot to mention that.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Vlip3:
Thank you. Do you know why the OTA update center does not know about build 15? Also, do you know where the build 18 ROM would have likely been saved by the OTA, I can't seem to find it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] tfly212:
Seems like it...I did nothing special other than boot the phone with the new SIM (Verizon Note 2, Beans 19). Local carrier was immediately recognized. Once loaded, the instructions were to send an activation text and I immediately saw H+ show up and full bars. I did the same with my wife's rooted Razr Maxx but had to reboot a couple of times and add the internet APN info. The Note 2 was much easier.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] michigan66:
Ota didnt work for several builds. That may be the reason. If you're looking for older builds, there is a link under downloads in the op.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] tfly212:
Give another kernel a try...19 with Beans Stock (which I used from 17-19) had been great on 17 and 18 but not so good on 19. Went to perseus and its been fantastic.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] emtee_skull:
Not sure where it would be. I never use it. I just download the file direct. But es file explorer can search storage for maybe "beans". If that doesn't work. Just download the file from the thread and flash it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] statustray:
If memory serves me correct, there were some fairly serious issues with Build 15, and because of that Beans removed it altogether. I "think" that might be why.

In terms of the over-the-air, check either your /sdcard/OTA-Updater folder for the OTA, it might also be /sdcard0/OTA-Updater/ or /mnt/sdcard/OTA-Updater for the over-the-air.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] d12unk13astard:
This rom thread really is my favorite as well because everyone here is so helpful and funny, im from the sprint note 2 forums and as soon as I learned I could flash other carrier roms with a certain mod jellybeans was my only go to place.

These roms are rock solid and look forward to future builds :D

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] drew_p:
I have to say my one HUGE complaint with these builds of Beans ROM, are that they are waaaaaaaay too good. I'm almost upset that I try and flash other roms and immediately want to come back to beans. I hate that it's sooooooo good lol. Beanstown you do such a great job and that hard working attitude flows down to all the people that enjoy your ROM cause this is definitely one the most helpful and non negative threads on xda. Mad props to you and looking forward to what comes next.

No I'm not happy to see you, it's just a Note 2 in my pocket

I know this has been asked many times in previous posts, but what is the most reliable way to tether on here for build 19 running Perseus? My internet was down this morning for like 20 or 30 minutes and I tried a few tethering apps and some weren't working and when they did it was slow.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] bostonbassman78:
The native tehering works just fine there should be no need for apps im on beans stock kernel by the way
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] BladeDreams:
Mobile hot spot. In apps.

Turn it on... it ha a how too that pops up with it ;)

If any ?'s just ask..... ;)

If trying to connect with something without wifi......update to a newer one. ;)

Otherwise. ..yes. all the tethering apps are very slow.... at least in my opinion.

Does anybody use "find my mobile" under the security section in settings? I was on an old build of beansrom and it wouldnt let me use it because I couldnt sign in with a samsung account.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] TheMyth:
Build 19 has been very solid for me from the time it was released. Can only imagine how 20 will be!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] statustray:
I just switched over to Perseus per your suggestion. I ran aroma.... I "thought" I saw someplace a location where one could get the individual kernels and install just that. I will revisit that though. It should be noted though that when I ran the install, it froze up on me towards the end and would not let me click "Next" after the build. I had to do a battery pull and selected the same options again, and it went thru like a charm. I will post back within a day or so. BUT, so far so good though ;)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] commiecat:
Ahh, glad to hear it. My experience was the same -- researched like crazy about adding APNs and ensuring that my phone would work. Got there and didn't have to do a thing once I got signal with the SIM.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] monkey10120:
Good to know. I just flashed beans and it runs amazingly. But I wanted to try other kernels and didn't know if I could just flash it through aroma easily or not.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] sleevasteve:
A little trick I learned(if your using the mobile XDA) is to tap on a post within a thread, and then tap "open in browser". Once you're in the browser, you can use the "search this thread" near the top of the page(right above the first post). It works great!

The bottom line is the XDA app search function sucks...even the browser search didn't use to function properly, but now it works like a charm. You can search threads, topics, forums etc.

I agree though, the first thing someone should do before flashing a ROM and before asking questions, is at least read the last few pages of the thread(hell just reading the last few posts would help some people!) :p

But if you're looking for something specific, open the thread in the browser and search!!

I cant get any custom rom to boot at all only my nandroid??? Im Unlocked and Rooted. Ive tried TWRP and CWM with no luck. First i tried flashing Beans other near stock rom with the insucure kernel but it just sits at the galaxy note 2 screen forever. So I tried flashing Beans build 2 witch flashed fine but once I reboot it goes back into TWRP everytime. Any idea what im doing wrong??
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] tommyb_:
are you wiping anything?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] chakra:
first where are you now?

What rom is installed, and what recovery. since you say you tried CWM and TWRP, are you back on TWRP or are you on CWM? Did you flash the CWM in TWRP and did you use the version from the development section here (only one that work with our verizon devices) or did you use a official version flashed from rom manager?(wont work until updated for verizon device)

What TWRP version did you use 2.3.2.0 if so thats not the correct version. only 2.3.2.3 that ADam made works with our verizon devices.

Give me more info so I can help.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Mac of York:
I just go to the kernel thread and flash it separately. Lot easier than going through AROMA.

I heard a rumor that build 20 would be released "soon".

So as I dont really know how long "soon" is... I looked it up:

1.*In the near future; shortly.

2.*Without hesitation; promptly:*came as soon as possible.

3.*Before the usual or appointed time; early.

4.*With willingness; readily:*I'd as soon leave right now.

5.*Obsolete*Immediately.

I still dont have a clue how long "soon" is..... ;)

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] lgoldstein:
I also had heard this rumor. The only downside as I see it is that while the international version will get it who knows how long it will take Verizon to get around to pushing it out. I believe I remember Beans talking about not wanting to build off of international builds if possible. I could be wrong.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] gloster2:
Wow! Beans -- thank you for answering my question and for answering a GIANT LOAD of QUESTIONS from everyone. You rock.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Dr. Droidberg:
It's not 4.2.3....it's 4.3, but yeah just rumors @ this point & like someone said previously, Verizon will undoubtedly take their sweet time releasing it for ROM developers to build from.

I've been using an Xposed module to handle custom carrier and theoretically it should still work for Build 20 even if Beans changes Verizon to jellybeans. Although having a custom input built into settings would be cool.

Please let us know how things go with faux's kernel too. I would be greatly interested. So far so good with me during my first 24 hours with perseus.

I did try greenify on build 19 before I switched to perseus. I am still running it now too but may freeze it with Titanium to see how things go without it running.

I used Faux 006 & 007 over the course of a few weeks. I didn't experience any better battery life than I did on Saber, which is my kernel of choice. The only thing I liked significantly better about Faux was Boeffla Sound. I wish all kernels would use that app for sound management. Boeffla Sound > STweaks/Voodoo Sound.

I also had a few glitches happening when I was on Faux 006 & 007 that I haven't had since I switched back to Saber. I was having the rotation bug where my phone was locking in portrait orientation & only a reboot would correct it. I was also having a weird screen lock issue where anytime I would press the power button to shut off my screen manually it would flash & be unresponsive until it would time out on its own. I actually thought my power button or screen was starting to fail, but I haven't had either happen on Saber 32.2 so it must have been kernel related. :confused:

I'm really liking the faux kernel. Plus, I'm using the Faux123 Kernel Enhancement Project donate edition.

Battery life is fantastic. (Partly due to Greenify and WakeLock Detector.)

Faux123 has yet to tell us what settings in his kernel are best for the Note 2. He does say to use the "ondemand" governor and choose "row" in IOSCHED. If anyone else is aware of recommended settings for the Faux123 Kernel running on the Note 2 please tell us! Faux123 has published his recommended settings for the S4 and hopefully will do so for the Note 2.

My only issues with the "Faux123 Kernel Enhancement Project" app are that it crashes at least once daily when I click IOSCHED and Eco Mode seems to turn itself off every once in a while.

I don't want to go too far off topic, but since abandoning Juice Defender for Greenify 1.9b6 and using WakeLock Detector to help decide what to hyberbate my battery life has been stellar. Tons of apps running too.

Now I don't want to suggest that Greenify 1.9b6 and WakeLock Detector should get all the credit. Beanstown106 does awesome work and his ROMs just sip on the battery as needed.

This information might be useful to someone. I got the note 2 last week and rooted and put build 19 on my phone the following day. I'm using faux kernel and my battery is lasting me just as long as my razr maxx did with heavy use. If build 18 or even 20 for that matter are better battery performers I'd be surprised. I can't be happier with the battery performance I'm getting now.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] BladeDreams:
Stock kernel runs very good with beans rom.

I ran stock up to 17... only switched then because of all the feed back for Voodoo Sound.

So I switched to Saber.

I dont OC or under.... so stock was perfect. Battery was good... Although I do get a bit more life on Saber.

Best thing with Beans rom... is you can swap out kernels very easy either run aroma again and switch...

Or just install the kernel by itself.

Then you decide what works best for you. ;)
