Is anyone able to get a GPS lock? I'm not, even after a clean wipe (including SD cards). I've since fixed it in v0.4 (which won't be released until tomorrow) but I was wondering if all phones are different and maybe some work and some don't. I'm guessing no one has tried navigating yet...

Also, Visual Voicemail won't play messages and I traced it to the system not being able to play qcp format sound files. Still looking for a solution to that but that one doesn't look as easy.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] cmo220:
I was able to. At first when I opened navigation it wouldn't lock but I was in a house. I opened maps in the house and it only got me within 50 meters. I opened navigation again as I was walking outside but by the time I got to my car it was locked in and navigating correctly. After leaving the place I went I reopened navigation and it was working in less than a minute. A couple of times it did say GPS signal lost, but it immediately started again on it's own without me doing anything to fix it.

I think it is something with different phones. I've seen this with a lot of ROMs and all international ones where some get GPS and some don't. I was always one of the ones that did. Either that or some people aren't patient enough because it seems like once you get the lock the first time it will always work afterwards.

I've also seen people say to flash back or restore to a ROM that GPS works on, get a lock, then flash the new ROM again.

Gps is very solid for me the whole day and I use it very often.

It's on par compared to meanbean 1.11 even a truck gps app locks in within a few seconds

I notice its not as responsive indoors compared to meanbean 1.11

Been using ICE the whole day so far seems like everything is working fine

It's alittle smoother and more responsive than meanbean 1.11 especially when opening/switching apps

Thanks for another great rom
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Jimjk1968:
A friend was able to get a lock but I am not. I'll be waiting for your fix. :)

I just used my GPS for a half hour ride, connected immediately and was on point all the way to my destination.

For those of you with GPS working, what modem (baseband) are you running?

It occurred to me I could make a 1.0 with the older VZW GPS drivers that are in 0.6 as a test. So I did. Try this, it's 1.0 with the VZW GPS drivers:

What's everyone's baseband? Mine says LL4. Should it be DMC3?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Namolas:
I've never known a ROM to include radios. Could be pretty bad if they did and if you flashed an international baseband on our Verizon devices it probably wouldn't survive.

Sorry if its been asked I been really busy with school but how are people like this vs 1.11? Anything different besides the GPs troubles on all international based ROMs
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DrunkUncas:
Learning Hub and Reader aren't working. Learning Hub crashes and Reader gives me a "Rooting detected" error before backing out.

Not that I had planned on using either, but this ROM is pretty bloated- we don't really need crap that won't work with rooted phones.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] hopesrequiem:
And it's also quite easy to debloat if you read the op instead of posting entitled sounding bs like this. K thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DrunkUncas:
Yeah, I already debloated. Trying to save others the effort of trying to set up an ap that doesn't work on our phone as currently configured.

Isn't that considerate of me, Richard?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mikeyxda:
I agree with you. I'll be taking those apps out. I initially left them in because there were reports that you could get them working if you changed your Samsung account's locale to UK, but then you have to delete Superuser.apk as well. After further consideration, I don't think anyone is going to go through the hassle.

Mike
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] shill1986:
That's true, but then again people should read the OP. I'm pretty new to the whole thing of rooting, been running android since the first DROID but never wanted to until this phone because of the nag, multi Window being held back, yada yada. It almost needed it where every other phone it was just do it to do it.

Regardless, I always read the full OP, or at least try to look through thread or search (nearly impossible in beans "over 9000!" thread though, lol. Hell, Google has the answers most of the time, too. I don't mind helping the newfolk, I do mind the pompous people who've been here awhile.

Even without debloat script, Root Uninstaller could get rid of, or at least freeze it, and hiding apps in app drawer is also incorporated in our phones.

You should try jellybeans rom. I believe it is designed to look more like aosp but on a TW base. It is very popular too. I just prefer ice myself.

OTA

On last few builds the OTA will download the rom, I click to install,it boots into recovery starts to install then reboots,I just reboot into recovery and install myself,which is no problem but just wondering why it stopped working Always clean out the OTA download folder.

Also have the ALLSharePlay.apk in de bloat file but it still installs it,the only that has a problem?

Hey guys. I've been having issues lately downloading the roms. I've tried via the links on page 1, but the main link as well as mirror and it never downloads. I'm connected to the Internet without issues, but I've even tried downloading a different rom and that didn't work either. I've tried rebooting, turning on airplane mode and nothing works. I tried downloading the rom on my tablet and that worked. What do you think the issue could be?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] cmo220:
There was a note on the top of the file host page the last few days that said you needed to be on the latest version of Firefox or Chrome to download properly. Are you maybe using Internet Explorer or some other browser? Not sure if that is still a problem or not.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] shill1986:
Nope. Didn't get it working... I don't get it, some things install, but if I've had it installed at any point before, it won't. Wtf...

When did we lose the Video Editor in this ROM?

Also -- I can't connect to the Samsung Apps app to see if I can re-download it... Music sync works fine, but the Samsung Apps one just sits there spinning the wait icon. I likes the video editor... was great for trimming the beginning and end from recordings without having to send it to the computer and fire up video conversion/editing tools. It also made it easy for making video MMS.

Edit:

Found out that the Samsung Apps app only works on wireless. Is this because we're on an international ROM, but coming from Verizon USA? Used it to download video editor.

[MENTION=2712518]mikeyxda[/MENTION]

for the volume increase, was it just a matter of adjusting in the default_gain.conf file or more? was wondering bc in my office my phone is very loud even on lowest volume settings. i was just curious so i could make changes myself. thanks mikey for your hard work and dedication to having solid builds for folks to use. ;)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mikeyxda:
I don't see book hub under Samsung Apps. I took Readers Hub last night and hacked the root check out. It worked but when you click on "Store", it says "not supported in this country". That's when I read that to get past that, you have to set your Samsung account to show UK. IMO, not worth the hassle.

I know your not going to support the stock toggles, but would you be able to tell me how you disabled them or at least point me in the right direction? I have searched high and low on how to get them back and can not find it.

GPS fix question

i read that someone flashed meanbean 1.11 and after getting a gps lock then flashed meanbead ice 1.0 to fix the problem with gps lock. When I try this using twrp after wiping cache and dalvik cache and flashing MB 1.11 I always get a bootloop and lose twrp. I have to flash the twrp recovery tar through odin to get recovery back. From there I can restore my nandroid but what am I doing wrong? after I flash the MB 1.11 it says I may have lost root and asks if I want it to fix the problem. I have tried both yes and no but always goes to bootloop. Do I need to wipe data too, before I flash BM 1.11?

Thanks

I have came across it but I only have a Mac. If I had a PC I would be all over it. I was hoping that it would be an easy fix with 4.1.2 since it allows you to rearrange the stock toggles.

Mike
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] N_Jones:
Ok this may be a noob question but I tried searching and couldn't find the answer. I just made the switch from Sprint and an HTC EVO 4G LTE to Verizon and the Sansung Note II. On the HTC's when a new base came out we had to flash the radios separate from the ROM. So the questions are:

Do modems = radios? I found them in another thread and it seems like the comparison fits.

And do you flash them separate from the ROM or are they incorporated into the ROM?

Like I said this is my first Samsung phone and still working out the different lingo......
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] bambamishere:
Oh,thanks Mike
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dragonstalker:
Yes the radios have to be flashed separate from the Rom.

I did a dirty flash and saw no difference in performance. After that did a complete wipe n install. May be just bases of clean install n saw a fractional performance upgrade. Antutu doesnt really show a difference. But seems a little smoother to me. Thanks again Mikey.
