It does persist. This is a brand new SIM as well.

I have a warranty replacement phone getting here Thursday with a new SIM. I'm scared to have this same issue.

So I'm trying to troubleshoot now with this one.

---------- Post added at 05:54 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:49 PM ----------

I'm going to try and flash a different kernel now. Why not.

Let's see what happens...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] RomsWell:
Definitely sounds like hardware. I wouldnt worry about the referb. Mine showed up flawless. Other then a creaky batt cover. The orig fit much tighter. So maybe just check your cover before you send the old one back out. But other then that mines been great. I get 7 hours screen time on my refurb when playing vids from the sd.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] M@|ice:
alright i flashed a different kernel per opinions above. the result is the same, the moment i booted it up it was stable when plugged in...when i unplugged it, it died in a second. i powered it back up and maybe 5 seconds after i see my home screen for the first time the phone just dies. oddly when i tried to boot it up the third time after seeing my boot animation my phone displayed the "would you like to sign up or log into a dropbox account" screen like it does after a clean flash. it looks like im missing some of my stuff lol whats going on?

im just happy i performed a fresh nandroid before i tried this. this is so very odd.

anyone know a way do disable adblock without reinstalling and deselecting it with aroma ?

some websites don't work for me

and those websites are also blocked when I tether to my laptop as well.

maybe edit a file or two ?

thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] drarkanex:
Edit the hosts file. There is an app that lets you edit it easily
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] jeremiahEJ54:
Do you have another battery to try....maybe something is wonky with it. Maybe when you get the referb you can check with that one

Deuce booted Note 2
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] M@|ice:
You know I was thinking that. I don't have a spare but when the new phone gets here Tomorrow with new SIM if I'm still having problems that's a great next step.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Tlingitsoldier:
Cool, thanks for sharing! Unfortunately, it didn't work out for me quite like I expected. :( According to the OP in the link:

The MWC app that is (was?) included in the ROM works the same way, and since Beans built the unlimited window hack into the ROM, it uses these instead.

The ideal app for what I'm looking for would allow me to arrange the MW apps from within the control app, along with alphabetic sorting. Sorting apps from the current side bar menu is needlessly difficult.

Thanks again! Hopefully I'll come across my dream MW app soon :)

If you guys are seeing a lot of FCs after install - I will recommend doing a cache and dalvik wipe. That worked for me.

I'm having issues with Bluetooth calls when a cable is connected to the headphone jack. Is anybody else experiencing this?

I'm on beans 22, stock kernel, clean flash, just switched from cleanrom 3.5

I hook up my phone to the car stereo through the headphone jack for music. But i use Bluetooth for phone calls. On cleanrom, Bluetooth always took priority over headphones and calls would pause the music and route call audio through Bluetooth.

I guess beans is supposed to work the same way, because when i receive or initiate a call, Bluetooth connects, but the audio is not routed through properly and i hear nothing. If I unplug the speaker cable, it works just fine even if i do it while on the call.

All help would be appreciated

Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] ncwildcat:
I love the way the headphone jack enables the speaker phone-my car is too old to have Bluetooth so I use the wired headset jack to play through my stereo, and when I get a call it automatically works like a hands free device using the speakerphone mic to pick up my voice..please don't change this feature it is the best feature I use!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] aptalca:
Calm down, brother :) fixing the bug I mentioned wouldn't affect your use. The bug only occurs when a bluetooth device is connected.

Fast Dormancy

So Google has not been my friend. I found several posts asking whether Verizon enabled fast dormancy, but none answering the question. Beans has a toggle in custom settings, but I can't find any advice on whether I should disable it on the Note 2 with Verizon. Anyone?

Reason this came up is that I have noticed lately that my phone doesn't fully charge overnight if I receive an email or text and don't mark it read until morning. Hard to believe the flashing notification light suddenly has such a significant impact when it didn't a few weeks ago, so I was looking for other possible explanations...and yes, this is a new phenomenon; no, I haven't added any apps lately that I know of; yes, the battery charges fully and quickly if there are no emails pending. On the other hand, I have noticed that my LTE signal is weaker in my bedroom and the phone often drops to 3g there.

new device got here, and im STILL having connectivity issues.

have i been throttled by verizon? i use a ton of data a month, between 35-50gb monthly.

im beginning to wonder if its them, because i dont see anyone else using this rom or sabre kernel reporting these issues but myself.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] spaghetti2514:
Well, it's possib-

Yes

Verizon is starting to throttle people with unlimited data?

I think there may be a slow down of speeds due to high traffic during the day. I say this because I too experience slow speeds during the day here near my home. At this time of night I get great speeds. I must admit I have unlimited data and I have been a data hog at times but that's cause my phone is the hot spot for my kids.

Matter of fact I have been a data hoarder this month. Only half way thru my bill cycle!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] RomsWell:
I use any where from 40 to 60 gigs a month. Between both lines its ruffly 80 gigs. I havent been throttled ever. Im at 50 right now and dont have a single issue.

Lol, I use about 250gb a month (which is my cap) for my home internet. We have two smartphones, two Nexus 7s, two laptops, a desktop, a BluRay player, a Wii, and a Nintendo 3DS XL that all connect to the internet. I download a lot I guess. :P
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] M@|ice:
well if others are using data as much as i am and more it cannot be that.

so i flashed the stock VRAMC3 rom back on and tried the phone out stock, and its stable.

so its not this new phone, its one of the million things ive done to it. crap.

so it seems signal is now stable, however the moment i unplug it im not seeing the signal drop anymore, the phone just dies after approx 10 seconds. after i power it up after i see my home screen for about 10 seconds it dies. battery reads 100% and slowly and naturally declines as it should with each few powerups to troubleshoot. recovery shows the same battery level.

i tried disabling some apps i know work when unplugged or when the phone isnt touched such as greenify and betterbattery, but the problem persists.

this is driving me insane. i used the phone for over 10 hours last night and it didnt do this once. but if i unplug it, a few seconds later, it dies. is there a way to view a log up to the point it takes a crap to see what was the last thing to run and identify the culprit of this 2 week pain in my arse of swapping phones and sim cards and irritation?

im going to factory reset and clean flash beans back on again and see what it does, i must have an app that absolutley hates this rom on this phone. i love this rom, and ill never change. i just need this thing to stay on.

One thing that's new bugging me lately is when I'm using Google now or just browser and I Google something, I have to click the link to the website two three four times to get it to go to page. It almost never goes on the first touch.

Is it screen sensitivity? If it's a phone issue I'll send it back

I just completed a clean install to 22 and now my calls go straight to voicemail. I did a search and cannot find the answer. Anybody know how to correct?

Edit: Called VW. They escalated me to tier 2 support where it was fixed by entering MTAS...whatever that is.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] BladeDreams:
I noticed this as well a while back.

On October 16th 2013.

However, no one else replied or commented on it.

So.... i thought it was just an issue with my device alone.

I copied and pasted below.

anyone else have similar issues?

Thought it was me or just me device.*But after many resets, formates and complete clean re -installs...Finally went back to 21 and the issue was gone.The issue: when in the browser, and only in the browser my screen doesNot respond like it should. When clicking on links or even just trying to hightlight anything.It will buzz or vibrate... so I know the device knows im pressing the screen.Other fun thing it will do...If am typing, then realize I misspelled or what ever and del a few letters then startTyping again.... it likes to put the last letter I deleted back in....Grrr!So after going back to 21. Issue is gone.The only thing Beans did to the browser that I am aware of...Is the unlimited tabs (that dont seem to work - 16 is my max).Has anyone else experienced this?(Yes... I even took my screen protector off lol.)

wish I came here first before I flashed 22. I am able to connect to servers but Hangouts is having trouble connecting.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] M@|ice:
has anyone disabled fast dormancy? if you did what were your results?

im still trying to figure this out. i superwiped the phone and clean flashed beans 22 and sabres most recent and it isnt dropping service at all. not once has the 4G LTE vanished and i have had a abrupt shut down. so its something im setting within the rom thats pissing the phone off and causing my issues.

im going to have to just install one thing at a time and reboot and see what happens. i cant believe im the only one having this problem or who has seen this. i dont even know where to start but from scratch as i am now.

Just to add to the issue, I have had the same issue using the Dophin browser, so not sure it could have anything to do with changes to stock.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] grimloktt:
Ok. I called Verizon who elevated my case to level two support and the Tech went into the MTAS system, made a change/update and now I'm able to make and receive calls. However, where I used to get 4g at work with 21 now I'm getting 3g. Thoughts?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Wynnded:
I'm sure that this is of little or no use, but when I clean installed 22, I had nothing but trouble with it. I installed my backup of 21 then dirty flashed 22 over it and all has been delightful. Just in case anyone has the time and inclination to see if that works better for them as well.

Noted
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mtrain:
I had similar problems and went back to 21 as well.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] grimloktt:
I restored back to 21 and still only have 3g. Restored back to 22. I'll check wife's phone when she gets home to see if she has 4g.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] grimloktt:
Yes. I checked my wife's phone. She has 4g.

---------- Post added at 08:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:54 PM ----------

In the past, it would try to find 4g and then resort to 3g. It doesn't even look for 4g now. I changed preferred network from global to LTE and still nothing. Anyone?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] zachf714:
Maybe you need a replacement sim
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] grimloktt:
Could I have corrupted the SIM card when installing 22?

Try powering down pull sim power up wait until it says you need sim card power back down replace sim fire it up you should he good.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] grimloktt:
You can't pull the sim card with the battery in. So, I tried removing the battery and the SIM card and starting the phone. It said no SIM. I did a battery pull to turn off the phone, reinsterted the card and powered it back on. Still only 3G.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] wooddale:
Hmmm you have mobile networks checked in settings? Just searching for anzwer.

Wow and you said your wife has 4g so it couldnt be an outage. Maybe it is sim but Ive had my sim forever must have had it in half dozen different phones flashed 100 roms never had a problem. You said you tried dirty flashing the rom to right thats the only other thing I could think

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] S0UTHPAWK1LLA:
3G only

I had the exact issue messing with cm 10.3. I stupidly did the old *228 deal and it killed my sim. You need to get it replaced. 4G came back as soon as the new sim card was in and powered.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] grimloktt:
Verizon is sending a new SIM card with incoming phone. I'll try that first.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] S0UTHPAWK1LLA:
Verizon uses fast dormancy. You dont want to disable it or you'll be in 3G land alot. The GSM carriers tend to not need fast dormancy. My understanding is that it effects how you phone searches for a signal between towers...which of course will affect your service. The slight benefit of battery savings isn't worth a crap signal imo
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] RocknSteve:
Back when I used my HTC Thunderbolt (running a version of CM), I could click on something and all of the apps that could open it would appear for me to choose from (just like it does on Beans ROM).

However, you were able to click whichever app you wanted to open it with, without having to always press, "Always" or "Just once." Instead, there was a check box that allowed you to set the app as default if you so chose.

I liked this as it continuously saved me from having to make two presses (pressing the app I want to open and then pressing "always" or "just once"). Instead, I was able to choose the app I wanted to use and go. And, in the few cases where I did want to set a default, I could still do so.

I know this is REALLY minor and so I don't expect anything to come from this but thought I'd spit it out and see if anyone else.

As always, love your work Beans!

There is an exposed module that I think let's you switch back to the old style. AlternateAppPicker or something, you can find it through the downloads bit under the exposed custom settings. I think that will do what you want.

Hey guys, is it possible to get the Amazon Widget that came stock with the Note 2 out of the Box? I miss it, as I use Amazon A LOT!!!

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Dr. Droidberg:
I never used it, so I couldn't tell you what it looked like, but I would think it would be in your widget section if you have the Amazon Mobile app installed.

I almost guarantee that actually because my wife's Note 2 is still stock & she has 3 Amazon apps installed (Amazon Mobile, Amazon MP3, & Amazon Kindle). It has to come with one of them.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Digital DJ:
Thanks, that is the first placed I looked but it's not there. I do have the mobile app installed. I think beans took that widget out in his build. I just want it back. I found it to be very useful.

I've always wanted to ask but always forget to actually do it. I drive a truck for a living and it seems like once I get out of the general area 60-100 miles away from home, service gets very sparse. And I remember in my E4GT I always just did a PRL update and everything was better. But I noticed on this phone that there isn't an option to update prl. Does it update automatically? And then also there is one spot about 50 miles north of me that my phone goes into roaming for about 5 miles. Once the roaming notification pops up I have to reboot my phone for it to go away.
