Animal sacrifice? Seriously though, if you look through Samsung threads you will constantly see this issue. The answer send to be that for custom roms it will sometimes be OK. I've had a good stretch myself, but I've had bad experiences too. Both on build of this.

Still, this was my old useful routine: download GPS Test for free. Also Google Maps. Outside, run GPS Test, when you get the splash screen go to settings and update AGPS. That will give you a toast message it's finished in about 20 seconds. Return to the satellite page and let it find hits until your location is within 10 feet. Open Google Maps and let it sync to your location. Profit.

Hopefully.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] FormeriPhoney:
Did all that. Pulled out all the tricks I knew.. Nothing works as of now.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] winner00:
Yea and how come Root-box, Pacman, or Elemental X are still there? Elemental X even lists us in the credits lol. Xda just keeps getting more retarded everyday.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dpadaddict:
This happened to me as well. Could not get a GPS lock for the life of me. Flashed beans ROM got a lock and did everything you already did too.

Decided to just stay with beans ROM, but after four days got the itch for AOSP ROM again. Decided to give this a try again and viola GPS lock (without disabling WiFi and mobile network location).

For my sanity I did several test to make sure it wasn't the ROM since several people DON'T have any issues with it.

My conclusion: format system data before flashing Carbon AND make sure you flash gapps "some Aroma and/or TW based ROM users might forget" I know I did :).

Let me know if it works.

This ROM is now perfect.

Sent from my bad ass Note 2 running Carbon
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dmbfan13:
Yea I noticed that too! Again, I think the rules need to be changed. Just make there a "Based off Stock" forum and "Based off AOSP". Maybe not in those exact terms, but you get the idea. To me thats far more clear of what to expect in each corresponding forum.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dtroup64:
When all is said and done, makes it easier for me... I only use Beans, Carbon and MIUI and they're all in the same forum now. :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] slick_rick:
Its OK, its all Carbon related.

Just started using the 1.7 ROM and noticed that my sdcard old files etc is still all there. Is the whole need to apply the downgrade patch useless now for going back to tw
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] jamesgrenard:
Just flashed back to this. Have been bouncing back and forth between this and liquidsmooth
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] JustusIV:
i am not sure if it is the rom or a kernal or the new modem or what but has anyone else had awful internet speeds? I flashed this last night and all day at work it was unusable. I mean it could have just been a coincidence but seems unlikely as i have never had this happen and i have been on 4g since the rollout in my area. Then the day i go to this rom it goes to hell. I am just looking for ideas.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] collins521:
Is there a way to turn off the lock screen widgets?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] JustusIV:
Just an FYI flashed another AOSP rom and my speed went back to normal.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] leyvatron:
I have noticed this with AoSp roms. For some reason the speed isnt the same as tw roms.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] BennyJr:
Its because of the RIL
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] _g6_:
Hey all-

So I've been using BeansROM since I got the Note, and as much as I love it, I'm kind of looking for a change. I would love to try out Carbon, but I'm using TWRP recovery. Is it possible to use TWRP to flash Carbon? I've tried twice, and I'm stuck at the the Carbon logo boot animation. Clean flash both times. Does Carbon take awhile to boot up usually?

Also will using Carbon take away the Spen functionality? It's not a deal breaker by any means, but it would be nice to still have that available to use.

Thanks for the help!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] killa408shark:
I never had issues flashing Carbon with TWRP just make sure you have the latest version. Install Goomanager from the play store open it hit menu install recovery scrip. To boot up it doesn't take to long maybe a minute or two.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] durango99:
Spen functionality is fine in carbon. I use papyrus as an alternative to TW Snote tool. Pressure sensitivity is also functional. The only missing piece is the sensor driver for attaching and detaching the Spen.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] CyD13:
Suddenly can't get a GPS lock! Sad :(
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dtroup64:
As the other said, Spen works fine with Papyrus and many other apps. Also, I use GMD SPen Control, and have set it to engage the input chooser as soon as the spen is taken out. I use 7notes with Mazek (a little expensive certainly) for handwriting recognition, and it's Per-Fect.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] guthrien:
I think 7Notes is better than the Samsung option.

Anyone running the latest nightly (5/11)? It kept telling me the camera would not connect and immediately force close.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] _g6_:
Thanks for the help on the Spen question. I've loaded an older build of BeansROM for the moment, just to have a working phone ha. I've DLed GooManager, downloaded the latest build of Carbon, and when I boot into recovery and flash/reboot, it hangs on the boot animation for forever. Any idea why? I wiped everything and tried twice, but alas. When I reflash Beans build14, it works just fine, no issues.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] pschatz12:
MMS picture quality is low on the 5-13 nightly...is there a fix?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] JustusIV:
Turns out coverage in my area went to crap for a day. Two other Verizon users had the same experience as me. Just real bad timing after a flash.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] sdkessman:
Any Fix for GPS?

First off LOVE the ROM. Everything is great, but my GPS will not lock. Is there anything to fix this. I flashed multiple times (even to another (GASP) ROM) and nothing seems to work. I have cleared the caches, wiped the data, but still nothing. My last ditch effort would be to go back to stock, see if it works again and then re-flash Carbon. Just seeing if there was anything else to try (Also tried all the "fix" apps).

Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] thatdudebutch:
search any aosp thread for gps fix
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] FrankyFiggz27:
turn off wi-fi and mobile network location in location settings.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] guthrien:
It's just hit or miss sadly. I got an immediate fix on the 16th nightly.

In general, this nightly is amazing so far, I hope I'm not jinxing myself. Running like a dream and a bunch of cool little features. Improvements to lockscreen, neat bedtime calculator etc. This is my favorite rom right now.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] tonipepperoni77:
you shouldn't even have to do that gps works perfect for me with all those checked. What i do is the flash a stock rom like beans get a lock then reboot straight to recovery then flash. Always works perfectly for me. Instant locks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dtroup64:
Exactly what happens with me as well.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Real_JESRadio:
Finally flashed my first AOSP ROM on my N2 and this is it. Don't miss the TW at all. Great job guys.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Real_JESRadio:
Everything is good except GPS. Flashed back to TW to get lock, reflashed Carbon and took awhile but got a lock. Woke up this am and took a long time again but eventually locked. Flashed 5/16 nightly and showing sats but no lock yet. been quite a long time.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] stackz07:
Anyone go to this rom from JellyBeans? If so how do you like it comparatively?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] durango99:
Just curious about detaching spen for you. I thought that none of the AOSP based ROMs could sense the pen attaching or detaching because of missing spen sensor driver. Is there something in GMD app that corrects that ? Thanks

EDIT: never mind :) figured out. I used a free app here https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tushar.spen_helper

By default it only works with TW ROMs. However in the description he has a beta addon to work with AOSP ROMs . works awesome
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] guthrien:
I like it just as much and better in a lot of ways. All those differences are just about the advances in aosp, and using the phone without some of the specifically created software. The longer I've used Samsung phones, the more I see the extra features as marketing differentiators rather than fully fleshed out additions. There are a lot of little things like notifications and quick panels etc that I find actually more useful in day to day usage than TW specific stuff.

Don't get me wrong these are still the phones I want to buy, but there is a price to be paid for essentially following the manufacturer's update and design schedule rather than the Android communities. This rom really highlights that well because it's packed with stuff and runs well. It will still never be as stable as the out of the box firmware, and Beans is the best version of that. Since you can do a nandroid backup, there's nothing to stop you from giving it a shot.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] slick_rick:
No FC here. Most likely something on your end.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] onemotodroid:
okay thanks, i will have some more time to spend on this tonight.

I will clear data on the contacts apk and try other things to fix this. it is just suprising that on both the nightly and 1.7 build i had the same problem.

if i fix this problem i will have a new dd.

Holy crap gps locks quick on the 5/21 nightly. Can't find anything wrong with that build. No problems with the reboot menu. Dirty flashed over 5/16 nightly.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Xaositek:
Not sure if anyone else ran into an issue, but make sure you have a backup before 5/22 nightly. I didn't, but ran into major issues with com.android.phone crashing continuously. I wiped and loaded 5/21 nightly with gapps. Haven't retried 5/22 yet.

Yes I tried wiping Dalvik and Cache without success. I did make a backup of it broken incase anyone wants me to snag log files.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] slick_rick:
Its noted in the changelog that a clean flash is needed.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Xaositek:
Using the Goo Manager it has no change log. Whoops!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dmbfan13:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Xaositek:

Sorry to ask if this has been already asked in the last 14 pages but.... how is bluetooth audio/phone on this?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] pool_shark:
BT for phone still has lots of static.

I just tried it because this ROM has so many great features. I even installed the themes by DustinB, which makes my Note 2 remind me so much of JBSourcery on my Nexus.

I can't live with the crackling during phone calls though. :( I hope that can be resolved, because other than that, this ROM is awesome!

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dmbfan13:
Testing it out now, thanks!

Quick question for how halo works. When I get a notification, the halo "bubble" comes up. But when I select it, it just takes me to the app like a normal notification would. Shouldnt it bring up the app over top of what im doing? Unless this is apart of what is buggy. Just curious!

EDIT: Scratch that. After futher playing around with it I think i figured it out. As you move your finger away from the "bubble", it goes through all active notifications.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] PhilPan:
What type of bugs are u seeing if any?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dmbfan13:
To be honest, everything seems to be pretty solid so far! I have run in to some graphical glitches when scrolling, but not sure if that's cause of matrix kernel or the ROM. Haven't run in to anything else tho!

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] illogic6:
Is there a way to replicate the SystemUI error? I haven't seen it yet.

Edit: I've re-setup all my apps and my homescreens. Still haven't seen any errors yet. Maybe I'm just lucky. Did see some weird screen tearing at the bottom 1/2 inch of the screen, but that was very minimal. If this keeps up, I might just stay on this indefinitely.

Edit2: Plugging my phone in to my computer's USB data cable causes SystemUI crashes every time. Having trouble pulling a logcat.
