[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DaRkL3AD3R:
Can I ask you guys using this ROM how your WiFi connectivity is when dealing with 802.11-N routers?

I'm on TouchWiz Jelly Beans Build 5 and I cannot connect to an N router, neither 2.4Ghz or 5Ghz. My old HTC Thunderbolt has no problem connecting to the 2.4Ghz N band, but doesn't have support for 5Ghz so it can't see that one.

It's not a rooted/ROM'ed issue, I am wondering if it's a chip issue or a driver issue. Hopefully you guys running AOSP can connect to an N Router just fine and that proves that it's a software issue. Here's what works/doesn't work for me:

5Ghz Wireless-N Only = won't work

5Ghz Mixed A/N = works, but only uses A

2.4Ghz Wireless-N Only = won't work

2.4Ghz Mixed B/G/N = works, but only uses B/G

So if any of you guys running this ROM are admins to your home routers and can do me this favor of confirming AOSP Wireless-N connectivity on our Note 2's then it would be a great help in understanding and resolving this issue.

I would try it myself but have no plans of going to AOSP at all, and not looking to backup/wipe/restore etc just to do a 10 second test :P

Thanks

I can confirm that when the band is set to auto or 5ghz, my Verizon SCH-i605 connects to my Buffalo WZR-HP-G300NH 802.11n router running the latest OpenWRT Attitude Adjustment ROM just fine at 65mbps. This is true for both the stock ROM and alpha3. It also sees many nearby routers. However, if I lock it to 2.4ghz, it sees nothing, and reports my Buffalo to be 'out of range'. That is on alpha3. I've not tested with stock.

no go. still had same issues as always with gps on aosp roms. like i dont even have gps. damn. you got me excited in my pants with a possible fix

It's gonna look a lot like beans! There's a vid of CM/PA on a GN2 on youtube btw.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] th3taman:
Did it take anyone a ridiculous amount of time to charge? I think I was maybe around 45% when I plugged it in. Almost 3 hours later I'm not to 80% yet. I took it off for like 10-15 minutes during that time. That seems really slow to me? :confused: Alpha 3 is what I'm using.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DaRkL3AD3R:
Check to make sure that it is charging at AC rate instead of USB. Do this by going into:

Settings->Battery

Up top it should saying Charging(USB/AC) one or the other. If it says (USB) then it's going to charge at 1/4th the speed it would at (AC).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] th3taman:
Thanks, I'll check next time I'm charging.

Can anyone running any AOSP rom test out this issue.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2109823

Its basically if you swipe in from the bezel your screen doesn't register the touch.

Just wondering if its on AOSP.

*EDIT*

installed alpha 3 myself to test. Issue is still there.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] amoblox:
If anyone has any trouble, do a factory reset from the Settings screen. Really enjoying the ROM. Everything (except GPS) seems to be working for me. [Alpha 3]

Edit: GPS is garbage.

Awesome to see this posted! Great work so far.

Just a few notes on what else I've noticed:

Home button doesn't work

Both of those work perfectly for me. Maybe bad flash?

Works as a basic stylus for now. The twiz features it has aren't incorporated into CM.

I can't get past the set up wizard. It keeps crashing. Any ideas on what I'm doing wrong? What version of gapps should I be downloading?

This is great to see thanx...but Is there a cmw for the Note 2???

Probably not but I hear there are some good S Note and other s pen app alternatives in the play store.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Rolfsted:
I see an avalanche of ROMs coming down the slope.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] kejar31:
As I am sure you know GPS is not working.. Also noticed a few data drops and data wouldn't come back until after a reboot
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] idle0095:
Nice to see CM10 coming for this.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] darkkterror:
In going to wait for a later, more progressed version before flashing this but I just wanted to chime in with some good words like "Awesome" and "Good Job" and "You Rock!"
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] THATTON:
What governor, I/O scheduler are you guys using? I am using default and everything seems fairly jumpy. In app is smooth mostly (Falcon for example seems much smoother than TW) but the rest is glitchy and jumpy. Am I the only one? Great job regardless of getting a CM10 build out SO QUICKLY!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Wickedares:
Well its def an alpha.

I dont recommend this atm. I was too eager to get a aosp rom.

First I tried to flash in the unlocked bootloader twrp and failed so I flashed to cwm. And then wiped data/cache flashed the rom.

Upon booting it went straight to home screen. Kept fcing the aosp keyboard spen would interact as a precise finger no special

Can't wait to see what may cone though
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] guthrien:
This is amazing news I can't believe you guys pulled this off so fast.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Haloman800:
That's disappointing =( I guess I'll stick to hybrid solutions like Beans for the time being. I've been using the stylus more and more, it's really quite nice.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] th0r615:
Obviously this isn't a daily driver yet. Great progress though and I can't wait for more in the coming weeks! Looking forward to 10.1 ;)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] bgolden84:
Good job on getting it to boot and run. I wish these people knew what a pain it is just to get to this point. Keep up the great work and thanks for what you do.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] slick_rick:
Well we had the Sprint version up and running. Then once the BL was unlocked, it was easy to transfer progress over to VZW GN2

Oh you have no idea lol. So much trial and error with sbrissen to get data fully working lol. Not to mention that silly no in call audio bug ;)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] drumdestroyer:
you can always just use the app super Bluetooth mono. or something like that.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] illogic6:
Holy crap, that was fast. Big ups to OP.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] THATTON:
How did you guys get the RIL to cooperate so quickly? My last few phones (SGSIII, Thunderbolt) took much longer and never were 100%. Did you guys use work from the SGSIII to get it functional? I am surprised at how quickly that element progressed.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] slick_rick:
No, sbrissen is just a genius pretty much lol. Took a bit off trial and error and lots of debugging but it finally cooperated. Plus, he had it working for the Sprint GNote 2 first so once the VZW variant got unlocked, it was just a matter of few changes I believe since they are both CDMA.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DaRkL3AD3R:
Nothing ever in the history of Android has ever been such a PITA to work with when it comes to RIL since the Thunderbolt. That was my previous phone and man if it wasn't for the fact that it's actually worth selling I'd be happy to make a smash-it-up video to post on Youtube, recorded courtesy of my Note 2.

**** that phone. And **** HTC.

Now back on topic, Cyanogenmod rules! Looking forward to the bugs getting kinked out and maybe some solid S Pen support.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] hredder:
Omg loved the thunderbolt except the battery life sucked. Probably not gonna see s pen support on Cyanogenmod though since spen only is on a few devices

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] ventz:
Fantastic!! Good job! So happy to have a clean ROM.

My other phone is a Nexus and it drives me nuts to deal with TouchWhiz. It's disgusting.

Only problems so far:

* AOSP Keyboard keeps crashing (constant pop-up msg)

* home button doesn't work

* settings on pull-down menu doesn't open settings

* browser closes instantly (maybe related to keyboard though?)

The rest seems fine.

Maybe the flash was bad? Will re-try in a bit.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] annihilist:
Exact same experience here. Tried reflashing and wiping several times.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] slick_rick:
What gapps did you flash? You have to flash 4.1.2 gapps http://goo.im/gapps/gapps-jb-20121011-signed.zip
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] THATTON:
Ok bro, you gotta tell me where you got that bug crawling around in your signature?! We had ants in our house today and I was sure that one was on my screen for a quick second.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] ventz:
Ok, I figured it out - I think I flashed the LATEST gapps which are actually for 4.2 (sadly here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2024207 that seems sort of implied - now fixed)

Here is the solution:

1.) boot into CWM (volume-up+home+power)

2.) wipe the /system partition

3.) Since the crashes (from the wrong gapps) makes it crash and won't let you transfer files, use ADB to push the gapps to /data/media

4.) flash the rom again

5.) now flash the gaps

6.) wipe the data+cache

7.) reboot

All set. Everything works now :) Hope this helps someone who made the same mistake as me.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] idle0095:
Can anyone report how this rom is running. Data drop outs or no? How is the CWR going since its unofficial.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] suzook:
Data drops about the same as s3...not too bad. Gps no workie...ROM runs smooth though.

Okay. If I flash CWR do i just do it in twrp?

Skype error

Team ,

I need you help please. The much maligned skype mobile is one of my fav apps. It does not work. I wonder if it is a device ( specific Note 2 ) or is a ROM issue, AOSP vs official.

Can someone try to install it and see if they get same error? See attachment. I have tried on beans version 2 ( I am running it) , no avail. I have also tried the app on a stock S3. My question is can you get to the log in screen. The app needs verizon data connection won't work on WIFI or other networks.

Here is the app again. I am talking about the Verizon Skype not the app that every carrier has it.

So far it feels almost production ready. Hasn't rebooted or frozen even once. I am extremely impressed.

* From the headset, people can't hear you, but you can hear them.

* Speakphone sounds like regular headpiece volume.

Anyone having trouble flashing after bootloader unlock? I can go to twrp, backup, restore, wipe, but when I go to flash a rom I get an error and says failed, anyone know how I can fix it?

Is there any GPS alternative ? That's literally the only problem that's wrong. Everything is good

Either it works for you right now or doesn't. It's a bit iffy for some.

Anybody else having issues with connecting their phone to their computer? I am able to connect my phone to the computer and transfer files on a stock tw rom but I am unable to with this rom. I know it's alpha, I am just mentioning this because the op didn't say anything about it being broke. Anybody that's able to help me out would be amazing lol

Thank you in advance!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] slick_rick:
Switch to mass storage and it will work. Check around in storage settings.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] PureLife90:
Awesome. Thank you. Worked like a champ. Now the only thing that's a bother is no gps but I am sure that I can continue to use this rom still. Considering this is all base of an alpha build of cm, it's really good! Thank you again op

No Video Out

Finally took the plunge and installed and it seems to work pretty well, except for the known problems however I did notice one new bug that I don't think anyone has reported yet:

No video output via MHL - works fine on Beans build 2

Not quite ready for use my daily driver but I'm sure it will get there in no time.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] idle0095:
Im using it as a daily driver until I see AOKP. I loved beans. Hoping Beans gets some custom lockscreens like blackberry style 10.

Is there anywhere we can see watch progress on this code? I am really interested in this project but the BT is a must for a daily driver for me.

There isn't much to talk about anyways until we get another build. Looking forward to it :good:

Me too, I love CM, but this alpha build isn't quite ready for prime time, luckily Bean's Rom is filling in nicely until things get a bit more stable.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] slick_rick:
This has been my DD since sbrissen got data working :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] th0r615:
Only things keeping it off my phone right now is the garbled audio on some phone calls and the GPS not working. I need both of those features 100% working before I can commit to this as a DD. I flashed Bean's rom in the mean time and it keeps locking up on the home screen and I need to do a battery pull every few hours.

just letting you guys know I won't have an update till after christmas I'm still actively working on it. holidays are pretty busy for me.

that's common with cm roms...although my data was solid when running it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] thestinkinggenius:
That's not acceptable you must update before X-mas, we all deserve a Christmas present - two lumps of coal for you:p. Just kidding - have a great Christmas and I am sure we will all be impatiently waiting for your next release, whenever it might be.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] ventz:
Bug: if you power the phone off and plug it into power, it seems frozen with a battery symbol and circle. Its what you normally see for a second and then it usually changes, but not here. Only way to start it is a battery pull. Also, this happens 100% of the time. I think if you olug it in while on and then shut it off, the same thing happens.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] PureLife90:
Nice
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] jmorton10:
All cm 10 ROMs do that...."..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] AndrewZorn:
When you guys say data takes "a minute" to kick in... could you elaborate? I've been flashed for a couple hours now and still can't get the roaming data I was here on the stock ROM. Tried rebooting and airplane mode. Wish I didn't get so excited to set everything up before realizing this huge problem...

Otherwise it (and PA) is awesome!

EDIT nevermind, duh, forgot CM had data roaming disabled by default.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] johnwaynegacy:
Any word on official support, like the other note 2 variants?

I'm getting a solid 4g/wifi connection. However, when connecting to webpages or syncing it tends to take a while to kick in? Is this the known issue we're currently having with our CM10 build or am I the only person experiencing this? I have read that single drops in and out but mine seems to be solid... just takes a while for pages to load... or apps to sync using the internet..

FYI: I found out the hard way that the mute button when on a call does not work :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] AndrewZorn:
To anyone considering flashing to this ROM (in Alpha 1 form) as a daily driver: I wish I did not.

The first day after I flashed happened to be THE day I needed a lot of functionality out of my phone. I got two silent calls in a row, was unable to get Navigation because of no GPS, the data was off for a long time and I missed an email, and the camera wouldn't even start after force close (had to reboot, missed picture).

I realize all of this is pretty much documented, but just wanted to sort of counter all the people saying these bugs are exaggerated. I found the current state of this project completely unsuitable for daily use.

That doesn't change my excitement for the future, I am very hopeful for a more stable CM10. Thanks to everyone working on it!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DroidOnRoids:
I mean, the OP does say it has a lot of bugs and that they are confirmed. It's in the first Alpha stage so of course this really isn't a daily driver. Right now, if you haven't already, switch to TouchWiz for the time being. That's the most stable you can get.

But I too am excited on this project and I'm confident it will only get better. Especially with sbrissen. :D
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] illogic6:
I'm going to lose it when we get the last few bugs ironed out. This'll be my favorite phone ever, hands down.

I have half a mind to start a bounty thread to get the last few things fixed, but I just don't have the time to maintain that kind of thing right now. If someone else can do it, sign me up for $25! :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] slick_rick:
What? Lol the last few bugs will be ironed in due time. No need for a bounty or anything.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] AndrewZorn:
I agree completely. I just felt the need to speak up since the thread comments seem to suggest the GPS/data problems are minor to nonexistent.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] jacob4duke:
agreed ive only had data drop once when i was playing fun run:crying: but it came right back on. Main thing for me is the camera
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] jacob4duke:
Does anyones camera work because mine doesnt at all and in the thread it says occasionally
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] chefdave12118:
I can not wait for this to be a stable daily. I could honestly care less about "S" anything on this phone. Its fun to pull the pen out to show people but is pretty useless to me other then that.

I've had cm7/9/10 on almost every device I've owned and this one won't be any different.

Keep up the great work guys. :good:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] jrollette:
Here's for cheering sbrissen on. I keep watching his github for updated timestamps. I am running slick_rick's Paranoid ROM, which is based off of this CM10 build. I am missing the things that are broken, but I would never go back to anything based off of TouchWiz. I don't want my Note II to be a giant phone. I want it to be a mini tablet. Samsung's TouchWiz is a bloated pile of dung.

Thank you to sbrissen and slick_rick for all your continued work.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] slick_rick:
Alpha 2 has landed. Give it a flash guys ;)
