Re: [ROM][SCH-I605][JB][4.2.1] CyanogenMod 10.1 official nightlies

Odd, I've read many times about rotation issues. Mine seems to be working perfectly. My sound issues are a bit different as well. I have the same speaker phone low volume, but in call up to my ear is fine. If I sync to my car, I can get good Bluetooth music but horrible call quality. When I unsync, I have no ringtone or dialer sounds. I called my voicemail and hung up, all my sound was back. Strange deal
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DaRkL3AD3R:
Incredible sbrissen, you are a genius.

Thanks so much for all the work you put into this. It's greatly appreciated.

Re: [ROM][SCH-I605][JB][4.2.1] CyanogenMod 10.1 official nightlies

Shouldnt "do a data wipe/factory reset" come before you flash the rom and gapps? Wont that erase what just installed? Sorry if I'm way off base. That's how the s3 was which is why i ask
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] apols:
So I'm on the 28th nightly and have observed the following behavior (others may have mentioned)

1) Battery life seems worse with Android OS eating everything up and staying awake

2) GPS seems to be coming on and trying to get a lock at random times

3) Weird graphical errors like GPU artifacts

4) generally laggy and slow to respond

5)Had to pull the battery once so far

6) not sure why, because I didn't think this included modems, but my Wifi & LTE signals have become pretty bad

I should note I was coming from Beans v7, and I wiped/flashed without issue because I followed the steps. Still need to reformat my SD card though (which doesn't mount and format from the android OS).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] loggainsd:
high "Android OS" usage for me too. haven't tried using the app that disables the media scanner yet. Gonna give it a day or two first.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DaRkL3AD3R:
Everything but your #6 is correct. Explanation for #6:

You're most likely going by signal bars when you say your signal has become worse than it was on Jelly Beans, correct?

Ya see the bars actually mean nothing. Verizon tweaks the bars on their phones so that certain signal:noise ratios come out with higher bars than they do on other carriers/AOSP ROM's. If you go into Settings -> About Phone -> Status you'll see that your actual signal db is the same more-or-less as it was on Jelly Beans.

Don't go by the signal bars, ever. They're really meaningless.

But other than that and the battery pull yes I can say I've experienced all of those other things.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dmbfan13:
What app are you referring to? That has been my problem on all of the AOSP roms. Battery life has been downright awful! Cant even go 9-12 hours or get more than 30 min screen on time because the Android OS is using all the battery!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] th0r615:

Next up is gps!

Re: [ROM][SCH-I605][JB][4.2.1] CyanogenMod 10.1 official nightlies

Is there anyway to change the time for screen on/off when pressing the power button. There is a slight lag that's not there on a stock rom.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] strikeir13:
Might be a bug in the latest nightly: I can't press the install button when installing apks from unknown sources...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dbrickg:
I saw that the matrix kernel now includes at least some of your wifi stuff, but I'm not sure what stuff, exactly. So I installed the latest cm10.1 and that kernel, and it's an improvement, but it feels like it still doesn't get as good a battery life as the one you posted a week or so ago, with the fast dormancy and wakelock changes
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] gabe565:
Do you have Screen Filter, Lux, or another app that overlays the screen enabled? Try disabling those. That's the only time I've seen that problem!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] strikeir13:
Wow, nail on the head. I just installed an app called Twilight that does what you described, so I tried disabling it and it installed immediately. Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Spencer_Moore:
Just wondering if anyone has an update or knowledge of this. It's not necessarily an issue, but it was a nice feature from TW.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DroidFamily:
Why aren't we getting an RC release for the Note 2
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] fallingup:
our bugs make our phone not RC worthy
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DroidFamily:
Huh? I feel like we are the red headed step children
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] miketoasty:
Can you give us the source to where you got that info from?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] sbrissen:
exynos based phones likely will never get rc or mr releases because of their lack of documentation to squash all the bugs. with that said I find the nightlies stable :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Xaositek:
Ever wonder if we got the backing of CM to go to Samsung (or another manufacturer) and said "WTF" it we'd get anywhere?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DroidFamily:
Then why did we get a milestone AOKP. Just curious.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] fallingup:
Different dev groups have different standards for their releases. In proper terms, a release candidate should relatively bug free, with most remaining bugs being at the software level. Our bugs live in the hardware realm due to no documentation for our chipset, even though we are very very close to bug free.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Gr33nRa1n:
Is anyone having volume issues on CM. I can barley hear speaker or headset volume what gives?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] miketoasty:
I've noticed that with a couple Touchwiz ROM's as well (Very low volume through phone and headset volumes), anyone have an idea on either how to fix this or maybe just what's going on?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] sbrissen:
I know most of you are on cm but I need a log of a regular voice dialer, not bt voice dial, on a tw rom. I have an idea on fixing the bt voice dial.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] libbycm:
I feel dumb for asking, but I see the Samsung service mode apk in system/app, but how do I invoke it? *#*#197328640#*#* seems to launch it, but its empty. Searched all over for solution but can't find anything. Feel free to flame if I'm just ignorant and missed it..

Tks.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] craigbailey1986:
Anyone else not able to flash any of the builds?? I have tried 4 times now. Each say status 7
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] millerd79:
Use twrp.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] craigbailey1986:
That's what I am using. Think I need to change cwm?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Nate14:
Na, as long as you are on the most up to date version of TWRP it should flash fine.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] bigd5783:
More specifically use TWRP 2.5.0.0
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] cam30era:
Alogcat of regular voice dial on TW ROM attached.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] sbrissen:
awesome thanks! hopefully have something in the next few days. :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] craigbailey1986:
Thanks upgrading worked.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] lbiniusc:
i cant flash this and im running the newest twrp
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] strikeir13:
For anyone interested, the latest Hulu version seems to work now, which is awesome. Between that and Xposed-enabled Netflix, I've got my streaming video taken care of!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] BennyJr:
Any way to get more headphone volume, or just more in general? It's really low
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] jamesgrenard:
Is this any different than Liquidsmooth or Carbon rom?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] durango99:
Those ROMs are based off of CyanogenMod. CM10.1 should mirror as close to what Google produces for their Nexus products but with a bit more customization features. LS and Carbon will have even further customization added on top of that.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] strikeir13:
Check out voodoo sound (and a compatible kernel)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] BennyJr:
I'd like to use the included kernel though..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] strikeir13:
Just curious as to why? A custom kernel will provide the feature you're looking for, and many are equally stable as the stock CM kernel. Try Matrix kernel. Make a nandroid before you try it and if you don't like it, you can just restore your backup. Easy as pie :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] kirch21:
Just curious, are most of you running the latest nightly or sbrissens latest build?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] cam30era:
Fwiw: I'm running Sbrissens 4/25 build. Does everything I want.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] BennyJr:
Well I know sbrissen has been working on some battery life improvements.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] fallingup:
That have all but maybe one been submitted and on github, where other devs can pull down his changes. Argument invalid ;)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] hopesrequiem:
Not sure how to decipher this statement lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] BennyJr:
At least I'm not alone
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] fallingup:
the changes that sbrissen has made are all public, he has put them on github which other devs can then pull his changes and apply them to their kernels as well as their roms. I think the matrix kernel has the same changes to the kernel that sbrissen has done, so thats what makes your argument about only staying on the included kernel because it has special tweaks invalid.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] littleguevara:
Does anyone have a method of increasing speaker volume? For calls and notifications?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] strikeir13:
Also voodoo sound. You can really boost the volume with that... Again, needs compatible kernel (highly recommend Matrix, similar to CM stock but adds voodoo sound module and some tweaks)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] loggainsd:
Anyone having an issue with google play music after the update? App launches and dies after 30 seconds or less, whether it's local music or streamed.

I've tried uninstalling and re-installing, as well clearing cache and data on play music as well as the google play store and google play services.

I have had two other people try it too. Works fine on CM on a Galaxy nexus and on a Note II with stock os.

However, neither signed up for the free 30 day trial. They were just testing it without.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] amoblox:
I'm on a 30 day trial and I'm installing the latest nightly now. I'll get back to you with an update in about an hour (working and such).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] loggainsd:
Great. Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] amoblox:
It seems to be working well for me. I'm playing a previously created radio station. I did notice that it was flaky on the stock ROM last night. I'd give it a few days. The service is still rolling out.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] loggainsd:
ok thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] loggainsd:
still having issues with play music. Anyone else having issues or is it still just me?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] millerd79:
Works fine for me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] loggainsd:
OK thanks. Running out of ideas at this point.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DaRkL3AD3R:
On the latest nightly (5/16) and experienced several not only dropped calls, but dialer crashes altogether O_O these caused my radio to completely drop connection to the towers, and my phone started acting really odd. Like, flickering UI etc. Only saw this on CM10.1, was just on TouchWiz earlier and all was well. Going to make a backup and flash back to TW to make sure everythings fine hardware wise.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Spencer_Moore:
Has anyone had problems with Google Music FCing. I don't think it's only on CM, but figured I would ask.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] loggainsd:
Yep. Tried Droidtheorys new gapps today and still doing it.

Headset volume is also REALLY low.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] gabe565:
It never has, and I have All Access and use it constantly! How often does it FC?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] loggainsd:
For me I can open the app and it dies within 30 sec every time. I don't even have to start music or anything. Just opening the app.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] tomkins0752:
I don't know which one of you beautiful people did what to the latest nightly, but my Android OS CPU Usage has dropped and instead of it hovering at about 25-30%, it is at 6%. THANK YOU SO MUCH! :victory:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] millerd79:
Mine has dropped as well.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] idkwhothatis123:
Has anyone figured out a way to change the carrier name?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] gabe565:
That's really weird because I just saw a thread on Reddit about about Google Music FCing too, but I don't think I've ever had it FC! I don't understand...

Edit: Do you have any third-party apps that affect audio? I saw some people saying Volume+ and other things of the sort could be the culprit. I only use Voodoo Sound
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Spencer_Moore:
It constantly FC. The app does not even open.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] sbrissen:
can you grab a logcat? I'm not having any issues but maybe we can find out whats going on.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] loggainsd:
Sure. Here ya go

The file from Cat Log didn't have an extension. I added txt so it would attach.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] sbrissen:
Have you tried clearing data for Play Music and having it resync?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] loggainsd:
Yep. I tried just clearing cache, then I went to a full data wipe, then I uninstalled and reinstalled. Then I did a system wipe along with a new nightly. I just cleared cache/dalvik and flashed the most recent nightly as well. Same Issue. I will try clearing data again though.

Update: Just cleared data again. same issue.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] slick_rick:
Probably an app issue then.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dbrickg:
I think what sbrissen meant was just to go to Google Play Music from Settings / Apps and hitting the Clear data button. It seems like clearing data from your recovery should do that, but maybe there's some secret Google Play Music app data hidden somewhere that clearing /data doesn't touch. Probably not, but might give it a try....
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] loggainsd:
That is what I did actually.

---------- Post added at 09:51 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:51 AM ----------

OK. Like a conflicting app? I don't have anything music based other than isyncr and Apollo. I'll start disabling one by one to see if I can find it
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] slick_rick:
What I meant was isn't Play Music undergoing some changes? Subscription based, etc now, new app release. It could just be buggy at the moment like the new Hangout app.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] millerd79:
I use google play music app 2-3 hrs per day..w/ the all access pass..it's not fc on me...I don't think it's the app...I'm running the 5/19 nightly <--which is awesome by the way.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] loggainsd:
That's what I thought too. Buy 2 guys at work have no issues. One on cm on a nexus and the other a stock note 2
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] fallingup:
try backing up your sd data (sdcard0) and then format data
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] loggainsd:
Thanks but that didn't work either
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] fallingup:
Try another Google account then, while your data and set up your phone just for testing purposes with another account.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] danibri82:
Just installed CM 10.1 from having been a Beans user since I got my Note. Totally staying here.

I do have a question though. I noticed DSP doesn't do anything at all, though it's there. Totally a bummer, is this a known issue?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] loggainsd:
Just tried my work account. Same issue.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] fallingup:
Do you have an SD card in the phone? If so take it out. Does it happen on a tw ROM? Or another aosp ROM?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] loggainsd:
It does. however, I have tried removing it with the same issue.

I flashed beans TW rom and it ran longer the first time. About 3 min, then crashed. Subsequent launches were the same as AOSP. less than 30 sec.Have not tried another AOSP as most are CM based. At least the ones I've seen.

Do you think it could be a conflicting app?

---------- Post added at 02:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:00 PM ----------

OK. I finally figured it out. Local playlists in apollo were causing the issue. They were created by iSyncr. Deleted the playlists and it's fine. iSyncr and the local music are still there, and aren't causing issues for me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] littleguevara:
Anyone notice extremely slow market downloads? I'm pulling 10mbps download on 4g.

Anyone have any ideas?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] danibri82:
That's not exactly crawling.. Probably just congestion. are you on the current radio?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] littleguevara:
Sorry I was unclear. Although that's what I speed test at. The market downloads at around 300kbps. A snails pace
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] inkdrink:
I'm assuming the camera is still buggy and crashing pretty frequently, right?

Only thing keeping me on Beans and off of CM is a lack of a stable camera which I use constantly. Is this due to a lack of proper 4.2 availability for the Note 2?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] danibri82:
It's not bad. Two days of use, and I use the camera daily, c it only crashed once. Didn't really crash either. just flipped the camera back to front and back and it cleared right up.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] anoninja118:
I haven't had camera or video problems on CM in a long time, both work great and never FC... I use flash, and timer and power shutter and most other options pretty frequently too
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] inkdrink:
I'll give it another shot. Not sure what the issue is. I've always encountered regular FC's on any AOSP or 4.2 based rom when using the camera, and switching back to a 4.1 TW rom has always allowed the camera to work flawlessly.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DaRkL3AD3R:
Camera's still pretty odd. For non-flash pics it's darn near perfect. For video recording most of the bugs are gone, if not all. But flash is still really messed up and is generally the source of the crashes.

Another thing to consider is that the AOSP camera just isn't up to par with the capabilities of the TouchWiz one. For instance, even forcing it in XML files, I cannot get videos to record in stereo sound on AOSP as I can with TouchWiz (defaultadly.)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] killer2239:
Someone mentioned to use Voodoo Sound to increase the volume of the ringer and notifications but when I try to install it I can't. It says the app is not compatible with my device on the market. What are people using to increase the volume? It is terrible stock.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] libbycm:
I've been on nightlies since they came out for this phone and have never had camera crash. I was even using it hardcore for both videos and pics last week in Hawaii and never had an issue...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] JustusIV:
On a clean flash before installing anything does it happen?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] loggainsd:
Yep it did. I did a lot of googling and figured it out. Playlists in Apollo synced from isyncr was causing the crashes. After deleting the playlists everything is great.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] danibri82:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] millerd79:
You have to install a custom kernel.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] danibri82:
Voodoo doesn't seem to really do anything, other than bump the bass. kinda disappointing. DSP Manager doesn't work, period either.

Really missing the Audio stuff I could manipulate, including a low level equalizer and volume controls that were baked into Perseus Kernel for TW based roms...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] killer2239:
I spoke to the dev of Voodoo asking why Note 2 won't let me install on the play store. He said the note 2 is not supported. He doesn't even know why people are modifying the kernel and saying it supports the voodoo mod. He said he is re-writing it but currently it is not supported and probably doesn't work at all.

Hence why one of you said it doesn't seem to do anything.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] shrike1978:
Car dock

Can the car dock be used properly in AOSP on the Note 2? Particularly, is it possible to route audio through the dock instead of the speaker when it is connected to the dock?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] cam30era:
Have you had any luck finding a solution to voice commands over Bluetooth?

Thanks again for all your work.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] sbrissen:
sorta, I'm halfway there. I can get output on the bt that there were no results but its not taking any commands yet.

the car dock should work properly, it needs testing though.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] nathan_barstow14:
Has anybody else been having battery drain issues caused by the "Android OS"? I did a full wipe and clean install over the weekend and am still seeing the issue. I've disabled most of the services in the Google account, but kept a few going and saw next to no difference. Better Battery Stats shows a kernel wakelock for "mdm_hsic_pm0" of basically the entire time since it's been unplugged.

I used to only get down to ~70% on 13hrs of battery give or take. Now I'm getting to 50% in about 11 hours with identical (and sometimes less) use.

Sorry if this has been covered, but a search for the mdm turned up nothing.

Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] RemnantKing2:
I believe the Android OS thing is completely normal the first few battery cycles and will settle in after a few days.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] onemotodroid:
My issue solved, i cannot restore my call log info from a TW rom.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] nathan_barstow14:
I really don't think that's the case. It started after I had been settled into a ROM for a while. It didn't start right after I did a clean install.

Edit: I don't mean to say you are wrong - I just don't think that's the problem I'm having. Or maybe mine is just never "settling in"?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] tonipepperoni77:
its with all CM and AOSP roms. it hadn't been figured out but that wake-lock you saw in betterbatterystats is always the number one on these rome. if you flash matrix kernel it helps a little but android os with always be high usually close to screen time (if you use your screen a lot). but yeah hope that clears it up. developers have been working hard to find what bug is causing such high android usage and that high wake lock.
