Sounds like a bad download, flash or restore back to an older ROM, redownload it, and try again.

Also when you say clean flash what exactly are you wiping? Best bet is if using TWRP go into advanced wipe and wipe everything except your SD Card.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] craigbailey1986:
Well I will say my battery is lasting longer than 4.2... For whatever that's worth...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] danibri82:
I have a strange issue. On the initial bootup, all is well. Until I restart it for any reason. At that point, it will not boot up at all. It just sits at the initial "Samsung Galaxy Note II" screen. It'll do this forever and not change. I've tried multiple times, multiple installs, etc. still does it. Someone suggested to wait it out and eventually it'll boot up and that issue will go away.. But it will not. It's been stuck at the screen now for over two hours. not going away. Unfortunately all that download and ROM setup is gone to waste. The only way I can get it to boot up again is by fully wiping and reformatting.

Guess I'll stick with CM 10.1
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] websterzx10r1:
After u flashed 4.3 gaps. Did u wipe data/cache then reboot? I did this and before I rebooted factory reset. Then rebooted
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] danibri82:
I also tried that just for the hell of it, even though it wouldn't have done anything pre-boot. Either way, it booted up and worked, then on a restart with no changes, it never came back up.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] cam30era:
Take a look at the CM10.1 thread. Page 171, post #1710. There is a solution that apparently worked for one guy with a problem similar to yours. Yes, I know it's not the CM10.2 thread, but for several pages it was, prior to Sbrissen starting this thread.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] zodduska:
Earlier there was talk of having to shut down after the initial boot, after that restart seemed to be working.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] MizSxxyBych:
Damn:( I use that a lot lol. ..any app or mod to substitute?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] th0r615:
Nope. Thats a TouchWiz feature and CM/AOSP ROMs don't have anything equivalent
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] ria4life:
Had the same issue..here's what worked for me:

Full system wipe: including internal storage

Install rom + Gapps

Wipe cache & dalvik cache

Reboot device

Setup language but did not setup gmail or anything else....

Shutdown

Reboot and let sit for a bit..(mine took 5 mins)

After that...profit!!!:cyclops:

I'm just going to wait. Thanks though, guys.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] lostnuke:
I have found with mine that it doesn't like to just reboot. I can only go into recovery and get a successful restart afterwards. But it boots.

I'm sure its being looked at. If we get an update I will post my experience with it. :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] millerd79:
I let mine sit for over 20min before it booted. You just have to wait it will boot.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] danibri82:
A. That's not how a phone should work.

B. I waited 90 minutes in my case, nothing happened.

Looking forward to getting the bugs worked out. Frankly I'm surprised our 4.2.2 builds are still in the nightly stage. Only issue is the sounds, which seems to be kernel based.

Has anyone experienced headset audio issues? Plays like 2 bits of a song and then disconnects and stops the music.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] xsleazoidx:
Looks like I'm not going to be using 4.3 until we can get the graphical glitch resolved. Its too damn annoying lol. But I did love how fast 4.3 is :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dbrickg:
I noticed the graphical glitch seems to be related to ads. In the cyanogenmod ROM Manager, the screen would black out everytime the ad would change. Touching the screen would bring it back. Then I remembered I had purchased the premium version. As soon as I installed that, the screen blackouts stopped. I was getting the same thing with MixZing, till I got the paid version installed. Good impetus to buy the ad-free versions of apps :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] miketoasty:
I believe sbrissen posted a while ago that our phone (And most Samsung phones) will never be considered anything other than nightly's because of their closed sourceness. Doesn't mean they don't work right, CM just doesn't want to put their name on it since it will technically never be "Perfect".
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] xsleazoidx:
I don't use ROM manager. I use twrp recovery. Seems to be better and has. A touch screen interface.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] hsomnus:
Focal breaks camera on my phone. Removed from system apps and regular camera works perfect now
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dbrickg:
Assuming you're commenting on my comment about the graphical glitches, I didn't mean to imply the problem had anything to do with ROM manager. But it does seem to have something to do with whatever mechanism ROM manager uses to play ads. Every time the ad changed, it would black the screen. The same thing happened with the free version of MixZing. And I just tried IMDB, and it's almost totally useless, since, it's got some kind of scrolling ads, so the ads are constantly changing, so the screen is constantly blacking out. But some aps, flightaware, for instance, seem to use a different ad mechanism, so there's no problem with them.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dbrickg:
focal works just fine on mine... except for the me-facing camera. But that doesn't seem to work on the regular camera, either. On either one, it shows me a picture through that lens, and it even acts like it's taking a picture. But when I look in the Camera folder, there's nothing there.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] strikeir13:
I made the jump today and I thought I'd drop my thoughts:

Graphical glitches are minor (except in Falcon Pro, but even then they're tolerable)

FFC doesn't capture pictures, and will cause the "can't connect to camera" error if you try (my biggest issue I guess)

AVRCP over BT (added by Google in 4.3) is AWESOME

GPS works great for me, no issues (I didn't have any with 10.1 either)

Too early to speak on battery life

But overall, very smooth, very fast, very nice to be on 4.3 :) can't wait for bugs to work themselves out (mostly camera, I can pull logs if needed)

thanks devs!

Edit: PicSphere doesn't work for me, maybe it's related to the FFC issues. Disappointing, but I'm sure it will get worked out in time
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dbrickg:
Looks like I spoke too soon. There seems to be some kind of weird interaction going on between Camera, Focal, the FFC, and Gallery. Not sure which is the problem, really. But I got the "cannot connect to camera" error, and Settings / Battery showed Gallery as using 40%. Had to reboot the phone to get back to normal. Hmm, and even now, though Gallery isn't even running, it still shows as using 40% of battery....

I'm kinda losing track here of how many CM 10.2 ROMs there are so lemme know if my list is missing anything:

- The 8/1 build in this thread by sbrissen.

- The earlier build that was posted in the CM 10.1 thread.

- Vanir ROM updated to 4.3

- Paranoid Android updated to 4.3

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] lostnuke:
I'm personally still seeing reboots hang. But, if I go into recovery, it boots fine every time. Same as last build.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] gormine:
Simply rebooting from recovery does not work for me. However, I did find a workaround.

If I backup the data partition, then format the data partition using "format data" in TWRP, I can restore the data partition afterwards and reboot just fine. Its a lengthy process but makes the ROM usable for me considering I rarely reboot. Hopefully this helps someone else as well.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] TheLoonyRebel:
I normally shutdown instead of reboot with any 4.3 builds. Works perfectly for me never any issues with rebooting that way.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] bmerrill63:
Finally took the leap to 4.3 last night, so far it is running good. Reboots fine, GPS is working instantly, and screenshots work.

I've only had a couple hiccups, first which is stated in the OP, is graphical glitches. When rotating to portrait the status bar is not scaling properly. Second is that Swype keyboard wants to move the cursor sporadically in random spots. Neither problem is to much to bear.

Thanks sbrissen!

Any suggestions on how to improve signal quality with this rom, or is it just an aosp problem in general, or Verizon or Samsung. I do not mean simply the signal bar being different. I understand that the actual bar can be manipulated and is not a gauge of actual strength. I mean that on this or other aosp roms in places I cannot get a signal or have a weak signal. Phone calls drop or have poor quality. I can install a TW rom and sit in the same place and have no problem, even if dBm strength reads the same between the two.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] miketoasty:
Mostly just the random apps that Samsung has installed. Also, the Spen still works fine you just don't have the Spen note app but there are replacements on the play store. My favorite being papyrus.

Here's the logcat of the Bluetooth media playback issues I'm having on CM10.2 ROMs. This happens with my Motorola S805 headphones. They work fine on all JB 4.1 and 4.2 ROMs so it's more then likely some kind of kernel issue I'm assuming. I posted this in the Paranoid Android 4.3 thread but since it's hugely based on the current CM10.2 code I might as well share it here.

You have to install either SuperSU or Superuser via TWRP. I've linked to both depending on which one you prefer.

On a previous note...the netflix issue can be fixed using the CM10.1 xposed work-around...you just have to make sure you have the most current 1.5 SsuperUser...if on previous version you'll have to flash 1.5 in recovery and then xposed will work.

They seem to have disappeared, at least the one where the whole screen would just black out occasionally... at least that's how I remember it now. I switched back and forth a couple of times, once as soon as 10.2 was released, switched back fairly quickly that time, then again, a week or so later, and then, again, back to 10.1, since the screen blackouts were still happening, and finally, a third try, to 10.2, which seems to have been the proverbial charm. Now I'd say it's better than 10.1 ever was. I've been on it for about a month now, and haven't seen any reason to turn back
