It seems to be random not everybody gets that mine works just fine
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] asacado:
I just got off an hour long conversation with this rom the gps and the phone signal (4g wifi are fine) are going great. OP can ou suggest a proper modem for testing since you supply all in Aroma?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] JeramyEggs:
It is not that my gps, or signal don't work, it is that my signal is not reported correctly. It has been an issue since the second release. I am gonna hang back, and wait for the next big wave. You need any testing Lacoursiere18 on that new rom, I would love to be a tester....
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Ibkevin:
Well Idk if I'm just a lucky one but i do not have the fc issue with my TW contacts. My contacts are working just fine. I also for the first time ever! Have GPS working with no problems right out the gate! I do however have the issue where my signal bars are always at full signal, and I too get a long funny number under about phone/signal. Not really a big deal though as long as my actual reception is not effected. Her's a screenshot of my contacts app open too, just so you guys don't think I'm pulling your leg lol.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] lacoursiere18:
Thanks man.. but i want to say to everyone in here that has pmed me about testing.. thank you very much for the offers and your offering of your time but we really do not need any.. on this rom it was a little different bc it is not a verizon base.. but i really appreciate everyone offering and sending me pms about testing..deckoz and i are the testers and creators lol

No GPS.....with v5

Tried all 3 radios, some fixes, apps to help

Got nothing.......no satellite locks at all.

So I wait for Verizon base rom from lacoursiere18.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] sonofevil77:
I restored Beans rom, got a GPS lock and rebooted to recovery from there and restored my Moonrom backup and GPS locked instantly.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] ganggreen777:
I will try....I have done that for all versions....perhaps this one is different:thumbup:

Thankyou

You name it/lacoursiere18 and I and others tried everything (with me that is)for locks....
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] xenspidey:
Mine works with the V10 that was first posted yesterday with the latest modem... Going to flash the v5 from l18 and see if I still have it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] ganggreen777:
Yea man let me know (v10)I was going to do the same (v10) but tried v5 first

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] :
Contacts app dont force close for me, but when i flashed the add ons, it did. Do I need the add ons for something to work properly?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Ibkevin:
Ok so here's the deal with my contacts...If I open the actual contacts app (not dialer app), it opens fine. While in my contacts app if I click on dialer, it opens fine. If I then leave the contacts app and go to the homescreen but still having the contacts app open in the background (recents) the dialer app itself will open fine and work. But the problem is if I do not open contacts first and go to the dialer through there, then my dialer app will not work by itself and I get a pop up that contacts has stopped. I also found that all works fine and nothing force closes if u use the xbackground module. The only issue I have with the xbackground module is that if you turn the phone to landscape when you're in an app that uses it, like dialer, contacts, etc., the background image gets stretched out an warped instead of fitting the screen like a normal wallpaper/skin would. So basically it's either use xbackground and don't turn my phone landscape during those apps lol, and have everything working or I have to get to my dialer by opening contacts app first, or I look for a 3rd party dialer/contacts app. If I was to decide on that last one, can I ask what ones are good to use and if I do use a 3rd party dialer/contacts, can I delete or freeze the dialer and contact app that are current? Or would that mess something up??

Not trying to say ya did something wrong or offend ya, but I would suggest going back and just looking every little thing over because if u even have a space where u shouldn't it won't work. I just modified mine and I only changed the 3rd mms line from the top down, and mms and sms both are working. I know the op says change all mms lines but u really just need to modify the one.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] xenspidey:
I had GPS in both... Its weird you didn't since we are usually the same when it comes to GPS.

There is one issue I had and that was data connection. My signal strength isn't being reported, but also I don't have as good or as fast of a data connection. I'm sitting in the same spot and can barely get anything to load on v5. Switched back to multi ROM and its much faster data wise.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Ibkevin:
I know I asked this back on V2 I believe it was, but I gotta ask again cause this is really annoying me. Does anyone know why I get these texts from Verizon obviously, but they say nothing and I'll get em all day long sometimes minutes apart!! Anyone that can please help with any suggestions on why this happens and is there anything to do to stop it??? It's only when I use Moon/International Roms but this is my 1st time on moon rom that my gps locks and everything works but I can't stay if I'm going to be getting 25 texts a day from verizon !! :(:confused:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] WarlockLord:
I believe its related to backup assistant

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Skilover:
I take it phone app works, or do you consider that part of contacts? Are the contacts not available through the phone app either? Does it track recent calls? Favorites? I realize the 3rd party contact apps also have phone dialers.

When you say MMS doesn't work, I thought it did if you use the android MMS app, rather than TW?

(note:wrote this before saw Ibkevin's detailed post, but that may not be true for everyone).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] sonofevil77:
I rebooted and it was fine. My phone kept freezing though. I could turn the screen on and off but it was frozen. I went back to beens for now. I want to love this rom but I keep having issues with it so I'll try again next update.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] ufkal:
I just loaded the rom. I think I like the layout and stuff. but I've had to pull the battery 5 times while trying to set it up. I haven't read through all 178 pages of stuff, so I'm not sure if I'm missing something. It looks cool, but I'll have to try it again when I have some free time to mess with it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] ganggreen777:
After you got your GPS lock in beans and I'm running clean Rom 3.5 and I get locks as well within 5 to 10 seconds do you immediately go and restore your nan of v5 or do you wipe then restore...I'm sure just restore into then nan

Thanks....
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] xenspidey:
I didn't go that route, mine just worked... Wondering if the "nuclear" route I took a week ago might be the reason. Life I said though my data on the beach ducks with v5 but not on multirom... Cannot wait fit l18's new ROM to hit!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] ganggreen777:
Nuclear?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] demass430:
For some reason the ext sd swap osnt woeking for me is tbere a work around? Like a mod or someting I can use I have a lot off apps but camt update most of em..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] JeramyEggs:
Totally agree.

Went crazy wiping and flashing

I believe that there is a flashable for the sd swap floating around. May check some pages back.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] xenspidey:
No, actually nuclear for me was to odin back to stock not take any ota's and reroot...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Craleb:
Maybe it is well known but I get slot of phone crashes randomly. (I turned off the fc notifications now so I don't notice anymore)

Also sometime my contacts crashes on first launch. Like after a fresh reboot.

Seems to eventually work though.

I've been cheating on moon rom .. running beans 20 lately. But I'm back... now if I can only stop pulling up the freaking notifications when typing(tablet mode)... lol

Thank you
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] gerg004:
I love updates as much as anyone, but for what it's worth I'm STILL running a very stable very smooth v2 Moon Rom. Everything does and has worked since, just saying thanks.

Assuming things are the same, and you haven't found an answer: Be COMPLETELY sure that you make a selection in every single choice in aroma. Not the tweaks where you can add stuff. But anything that has a yes or no, make sure you chose. Especially the CRT animation selection. Also choose wisely and carefully, I noticed if you had to go "back" in aroma things got squirrelly.

Good luck! This is an amazing Rom and well worth taking time to get it running.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] zain0300:
contacts are still giving me fc i have clean installed it few times but no luck
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] kalkat579:
Most likley you forgot to turn ripple off on lockscreen i do the same thing thats the only reason ur phone would freeze like that

To anyone that can't get GPS:

*uninstall Google Now, aka Search.

*uninstall maps

*reboot

*install GPS status and Maps fresh from market.

*turn on GPS and open maps. Search for a random location to navigate to.

Try that. Worked for me on an AOSP rom.

Ok found my first issue the alarm apk both of the stock ones wont open to set and google voice search also wont open. The first time they open then they just fc in a few seconds. I tried clearing data and then fixing permissions but still a no go if anyone has a fix that would be cool.

I never thought you were bsing lol. I'm pretty sure it's something I'm doing wrong, which is why it's driving me crazy haha. I have the day off from work tomorrow, so I'm going to do some googling and try to figure it out.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] lacoursiere18:
I know devices varies..im not sure how to help you im sorry gps is not working for you..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] khw1959:
This will get figured out. There is something obvious but overlooked between the roms that lock and one's that do not.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] hopesrequiem:
I wonder if looking at the minitab rom would help? When I flashed v6 of that i had perfect gps. Still have a nandroid of it because it had gps. Will be testing this shortly with a lock on gps in beans 18

I guess i need to go and flash beans 18 get a lock nandroid it

AND then flash this rom.....? Is that a good plan?

I am actually on the original moon rom and cant get a gps lock and tried with faster gps for approx 25 min= notta
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] RemnantKing2:
Without doing anything, out off the box I have 3g and LTE working, I can send and receive SMS texts, and I can receive MMS. Haven't been able to get a GPS lock which I'll try using some app to see i it'll help. I was hoping that by recieving MMS I would be able to send MMS...But it looks like I have to edit the MMSC lines which I was hoping I wouldnt have to do lol. Making calls was working fine for a while but then Contacts started FCing. Over all I am in love with this ROM, so smooth and incredibly fast. LOVE the options in Aroma, I really appreciate your work.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Craleb:
On the last build i ran my contacts eventually started crashing too. Clearing app data for contacts makes it run one time fine. But if you go out and come back in it fcs again.

This is a known issue but i dont mind goong ro phone typing in area code and scrolling through contacts there.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] RemnantKing2:
If that was the case for me I wouldn't even mind, but even going into Phone will make the Contacts FFC and make dialing numbers or making calls for that matter useless.

I'll be doing a reflash once my phone fully charges.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] lacoursiere18:
Thanks for reporting guys.. i did mention it was a problem in OP..but just a heads up I am currently running faux's kernel with NONE of those issues.. Im not saying its kernel related..GPS maybe.. but give it a whirl.. I will include it in the update coming SOON!!:laugh: And for all those that are not having issue..COOL!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] andrewjt19:
This is a problem in Warlocks MoonROM port too. There's also the alternative of downloading a different dialer which works fine. .

You did mention that, my bad :l

Looking forward to that update :D
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] opalelement:
I'm having trouble getting the ROM to even boot, I go through Aroma and tell the phone to reboot but it only shows the Samsung Galaxy Note II logo for a few seconds then goes to a black screen. I tried waiting to see if perhaps it just had an issue with the boot animation, but it never showed anything after I set it down for 20 min - all it did was started lighting up the hardware keys when I touched the actual screen, but didn't show anything. I have tried installing multiple times, varying between only the settings selected in Aroma by default to switching some to customize it a bit. My MD5 is the same as what was posted a few pages back (somewhere from pages 11 through 13 I believe), and each time it goes to the black screen I have to do a battery pull, at which point I can get into recovery like normal.

Did anyone else have any issues like this?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] idkwhothatis123:
Are you running the dualboot?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dudeicles:
Looks like i got my hopes up. I can't seem to flash the rom, most likely a download issue. So i'm going to wait till i get home and download again onto my PC and see if that helps.

I'm looking forward to using this then and giving lacoursiere18 hell if it doesn't work and fails miserably :P

If it works then of course he gets :highfive:

Turn on gps

Wow. This is pretty cool....previously a crack flasher but got stuck on Beans Rom for the last 3-4 mo. Saw this and had to try it.....took me a day to kinda figure it all out and had to make a couple dpi tweaks and such to really get it working for me, but really I'm amazed how well it works. Don't see why it won't be my daily driver at this point....just need to get the gps working buy I'm sure I'll find answers in previous posts cuz the OP saws it's fixed. BTW, nice job on this Rom!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] zain0300:
doesn't contacts app forceclose? If not did you change the dpi to make it work?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Skilover:
The above comment is important, as it's become clear to me this ROM requires a lot more work to set up than most, especially for some users. I have not figured out through reading the posts WHY some people have it easy and others do not. That said, if the ROM is as good as the above post indicates, then it's worth the work.

Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] WarlockLord:
The problem is that fixing these problems would require us to pre-populate certain aspects of the /data partition, which is completely uncommon. Unfortunately, because of what exactly we're doing here (mixing dpi settings from various apps to get the best experience and compatibility in phone, phablet, and tablet mode), I don't think there's any real way to tackle the problem.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Skilover:
IS this due to the multi-floating window environment, or is it due to the fact the rom accommodates phone, phablet and tablet modes? There are Android roms for some phones that allow those modes that don't seem to require so much user customization. However, they absolutely do not offer the floating multi-window thing.

I wonder if it would be easier to set up and more likely to work if we limited the 3 modes down to, say, two? I'm not sure what "phablet" mode does versus "tablet" mode, but maybe both aren't needed?

That said, given how much the people for whom the rom works love it, it seems worth the try. For those of us who are obsessive and won''t be able to let it go if it won't work, well, I wish us all the best of luck :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] ufkal:
I'm still trying to figure it out and get it set up. My biggest issue I think has been the freezing and needing a battery pull. But I think I read somewhere I needed to turn something off on the lock screen.

I just need to get a few minutes to figure out how to get stuff to work.

It would nice/helpful/wishful thinking if there was a post with all the current fixes and things that work.

This is a great ROM and I appreciate all the hard work thats gone into this rom and the great community that is working to make it better.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] JeramyEggs:
Yeah, go into settings/lockscreen, and turn ripple effect off if using another lockscreen.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] armus:
Love this rom. It's so cool, but the GPS doesn't work. Tried reinstall of search and maps. Ran gps tools. Nothing seems to help. Help!

Also, I'm an inverse type of guy, can we get the black option back?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] NorthfieldMaui:
It is worth the time; this is one of the best ROMS I have run to date and I've been a "crack flasher" and "phone hacker" back from the original Droid! I just don't have many post counts cause I just figure it out on my own and just read up a lot...

I'm currently running, V4, I had switched to V5 the night it was released, but went back to V4 for the time being, until I have the time to set it up...More than likely going to V5 tonight, unless I wait for the new ROM to drop this weekend...I dunno!?

That being said...I dont know what all this time is people see talking about getting it setup and all their issues...

It takes a little time, like every other one to get up and going, but I wouldn't say any more than another...

I don't have a continuous problem with the GPS either, it messes up occasionally...To fix it, it normally helps to run the app called "GPS Status" to get your location...I used it a few weeks ago when I was out in the woods and need to track myself in the field and had no issues with tracking me and/or picking up the points I took...I also used it with street navigation this past weekend with no issues...Like I said, I do observe the lag in location, but I can normally get it pretty close to my exact location...

Occasionally I get the contact force close issue, but a quick reboot normally solves that problem and I can go a while before having that issue again...

So my advice to you is, if you're doubting the ROM and don't know if you wanna flash it, because of other people's issues...Follow your curiosity and just flash it, I bet you'll like it...

Again, I appreciate all of the hard work each if you guys have taken to put into this, it's greatly appreciated!!!
