VRAMC3 baseband here, no data issues on vzw, dirty flashed from 10.2 nightlies with cwm
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] l savag3 l:
I dirty flashed over CM10.2 and lost my button settings unfortunately. I may have to try it again to see if I can get it to stick.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] nkhex19:
VRAMC3 baseband also. Clean flashed from Carbon. Data works fine. Flashed in CWM 6.0.4.3
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dtroup64:
VRAMC3 here as well. Dirty flash over 10.2 nightly. All's well that ends well.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] TheLoonyRebel:
Thanks folks. I'll try that baseband/modem and dirty flash over CM10.2. I'm assuming this is the order I should things:

- Flash VRAMC3

- Flash CM10.2

- Flash 4.3 Gapps

- Run thru setup on CM10.2

- Dirty flash CM11

- Dirty flash 4.4 Gapps

Sounds about right?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] kirch21:
All you guys that dirty flashed over a cm10.2 build instead of flashing cm11 clean, how is it running so far? I had cm11 clean for a day, but audio was all messed up (music would play through headphones for about 5 seconds then stop). Back on 4.3 right now but considering goinj back to 4.4 dirty over 4.3. Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] TheLoonyRebel:
Okay just did the dirty flash method. No data. Checking under "About Phone" the Baseband version is "Unknown." Are you folks with working data getting this as well?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] nkhex19:
Here's a screen shot of mine. Data working.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] hecantbreathe:
No, have you tried downloading the ROM again?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] kirch21:
Maybe try flashing beans and the latest modem and then starting over. I lost service one time and that fixed it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] TheLoonyRebel:
Okay now I feel like a total noob here. Turns out I was using CWM 6.0.3.4 for the International Note 2 and not our Verizon Note 2. Flashed the proper Note 2 one (which is 6.0.4.3) and data works now. Thanks everyone for confirming stuff for me along the way.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] kirch21:
I hate when things like that happen it is so frustrating! Glad you got it working
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] nkhex19:
Glad you got it worked out. Now enjoy some KitKat!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] TheLoonyRebel:
Already enjoyed one of these a moment ago...

Interesting. I couldn't seem to read my SD card either, but I had assumed it was a lack of ExFAT support. Anyone else noticing SD card issues?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] jcolmar:
For some reason I can't get the recent apps button to work I dirty flashed over 10.2 and just tried PAC but still a no go. Any suggestions?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] droidmakespwn:
That's a known issue.

I also installed this app and threw a shortcut on my homescreen. Just another option if you don't want to take up screen real-estate with the navigation bar.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DaRkL3AD3R:
What's with all the excitement for 4.4? Aren't there still bugs to be worked out in 4.3?

Obviously by going forward another Android revision we're encountering a whole new slew of bugs. Should be one thing at a time... but that's just me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] jcolmar:
I added the line you posted but no luck what am I doing wrong?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] torr310:
Agree that... I didn't see new features I like in 4.4 except it uses less system resources.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] WisdomWolf:
ART...nuff said.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] l savag3 l:
For me it was about the aesthetics of 4.4, the changes to the launcher/Google Now access, and just trying something new out. Little did I know it would be so stable. Besides the lack of recent apps functionality (at least without a workaround), I have not found any other issues with this ROM. My GPS even locks faster than it did on 10.2.

I never tried the 4.3 ROM, but this is working really well for me so far.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] poontab:
So cm recently touched up the camera menu and I'm not seeing HDR option. Am I just imagining that it was ever there?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] |Jason8|:
CM10.2 or CM11? 11 is running the stock 4.4 camera... no SD card saving or HDR or anything like that........ yet.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] miketoasty:
I believe he's talking about CM 10.2 but I never remember seeing that by default before they changed the menu.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] poontab:
10.2 thread unfortunate 10.2 post :P

It must be disabled in the build.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] beavis9k:
I just wanted to thank sbrissen for all his work. The 11/3 nightly 10.2 runs great on my phone. Bluetooth works better than stock. No problems with GPS. The compass is borked, but it was borked in stock too. I've tweaked the screen dpi to suit my taste for smaller fonts and have the modded Google Wallet running (including tap and pay) without any crazy hacks.

I'd be happy to work on the outstanding issues. If you've done any investigating on them, tell me what you've found and I'll get on it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] cschanck:
The 10.2 build is solid, easily good enough to be a daily driver. But after a couple weeks I dropped back to a modded Touch Wiz ROM. In the end, I had too many problems with the audio. Far too faint to plug into my car input, to faint in call volume, etc. I use mine to drive my car stereo a lot, so perhaps I am overly sensitive too this issue.

I tried all the various tricks and tips found around, editing system files, etc, to no avail.

Seems like the sound hardware is still not perfectly supported. I tried several other 4.3 ROMs as well, same issue.

Anybody else?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Rudy_Ruettiger:
I completely agree. I have tried everything(apps, kernels, system file editing, etc) but the volumes are just too low for me. Hopefully it will get fixed with cm 11
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] cschanck:
It's really frustrating too -- everything else about CM 10.2 is fabulous. Gong back to TouchWiz, even a custom version, is a real downer. But the volumes are all so much better! Sigh.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] fordmanck:
You know there are custom kernels with customizable volumes, right?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] cschanck:
Yes, but that seems a bit too much. I mean, all the Note 2's, as far as I know, all have the same audio hardware, so it is a little annoying to deal. I'm sure it isn't a big deal for everyone else. And when the stock 4.3 ROM is released, I suspect things might improve.

And since the stock 4.3 release is not far off, I'm willing to wait.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] fordmanck:
I have had just about every phone known to man. This is a common issue with most AOSP ROM's. Kernels fix it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Tophaholic:
Nopes - you will be disappointed then. I tried CM11 (and PA 4.0) - both Android 4.4 AOSP roms - in call volume is still low. :crying:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] KBizzle:
What's the trick to download the nightlies? Click the link, it wants to download cm installer. Cm installer comes up not compatible.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] 6Flip9:
So loaded uo the latest nightly 11-20-13 and 4.3 cm gapps. No go for the keyboard. Couldnt sign in to test it out.

So did I just miss something

Sent from my SCH-I605
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] cschanck:
So, is there a kernel you'd recommend for the Note 2? I'm interested, primarily, in the damn volume being louder, obviously. Or should I wait until Samsung's 4.3 is out and absorbed by the devs?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] fordmanck:
It won't matter, the volume will still suck. I use neak kernel daily. To fix the volume I flashed plasma kernel and installed Stweaks. I changed all the volume settings in Stweaks and then flashed back to neak. All of the volume settings I changed stayed. I liked plasma but I was random rebooting ten times a day. Neak is very stable and great on battery. I get about 3 1/2-4 hours of screen on time and typically about 30 hours from a charge easily.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] cschanck:
Well, I flashed Devil kernel, plus 10.2 nightly. I used TricksterMod to set the headphone amplifier louder -- seems to have made a difference.

We'll see. But the 4.3 ROMs are just so much snappier!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] cschanck:
The combo of Devil and CM 10.2 is really a win; TricksterMod to boost the volume was the trick. Really made a difference. As close to TW volume as I can tell. Recomended!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] SJonesGSO:
I am completely unable to send SMS text messages on the latest nightly (2013-11-26). Is anyone else having this issue? Is there a work-around?

EDIT: Turns out I have NO ability for SMS or calls on any ROM (or stock).. That's not good.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] chachi:
Did you flash with latest cwm?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] SJonesGSO:
I did. But even back at 100% stock there is no SMS for me..Any ideas?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] amoblox:
It's pretty clear that they don't give a @$&# about this anymore. It has been like this since July. This is really what's stopping me from going with CM. I think flashing another kernel will fix it. Disappointing.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] libbycm:
Yup.. Its been since like may though I think...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] lostnuke:
The funny part is my volume doesn't seem that bad with the latest. But I have seen it very low at times before. I don't do anything different.

Stupid phones!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Robyna2010:
I don't know that it is fair to claim that an issue that hasn't been fixed its because they "don't give a @$&#". It may be that the issue isn't easily fixed without impact to the other devices which uses common code... or perhaps they can't quite nail down what is causing the issues on our devices. You are using essentially free work donated by the devs. If you don't like that, use a tw rom or change devices/carriers. (Or run a custom kernel)

I mean... really... show a little appreciation of the work being done for you!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] libbycm:
Cm is really just a large group of kangers that is right on the verge of charging for their build of android. What was once a cool 'stick it to the OEM's' product has become an empire. They make money off of this. I have no issue with this.. Its hard work, even to reuse someone else's code. But you can't have it both ways by accepting troves of 'donations' to build new products, then when things break that many are dependent on, hide behind the defense of 'it's something people work on in their spare time'.

Hell.. They don't even want bugs submitted for night lies. Then how the hell are you supposed to know what's broke and fix it??
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Robyna2010:
I have no issue with people getting paid for their work. My point is that the vast majority of people use their product, complain when it doesn't work, etc... but pay nothing for the privilege of doing so. Let us not forget that this device comes with TW and is available with aosp (the GPE ones on different carriers)... there are always alternatives.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] libbycm:
People shouldn't have to pay money BC cm is giving it away. And people won't be inclined to ever donate if crap doesn't work. Donating to cm is optional with mandatory undertones. I have donated money over the years.. But still don't have loud audio. Something tells me a $100 donation right now won't get me loud audio either.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Spiyder:
Man we've got some whiners on this forum. Nav bar! <--- waaaaaaa waaaaaa, free work i want want every feature stable right now! <------- waaaaaa waaaaaa. People make me sick:/
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] libbycm:
Yea.. Because wanting stable audio after nearly 4 months (that was working for a brief period of time when night lies first started for gn2 mind you) is surely an unreasonable request, especially when they found time to Kang the asop photo app and claim it superior (which is broken too I might add).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] kisypher:
He may sound like a whiner, and I'm sure most here disagree with him, but he does make a couple valid points that are at least worthy of discussion. Although an argument could be made this forum may not necessarily be the best place to do so.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] andrewjt19:
Totally awesome! Thanks CM
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] lostnuke:
I think scott mentioned in the 10.1 thread a while back that the low volume was due to the hack that's used. And they don't have access to what they really need for it to be touchwiz loud.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] libbycm:
Then why was it fine the first few weeks of the nightlies?

---------- Post added at 09:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:05 PM ----------

I don't feel like I am whining.. I am just open minded and trying to make a point to the people that have a cult like mindset towards cm.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] lostnuke:
IDK. Its part of the mystery for sure.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] poitee:
If you guys remember or perhaps you didn't research... sbrissen did add an audio fix in 10.1. It was under advanced settings. Worked like a charm. So I would wait patiently until it is either merged back in or they find another fix.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] strikeir13:
Couldn't disagree more about the "mandatory undertones". A donation is exactly that, a donation. Personally, I think it should be given as a thanks for work done, NOT as an incentive or unspoken agreement to get more work done. That's not a donation, that's paying for a service. CM doesn't ever ask for that. If a user donates and thinks it will get more work done, that is their (imo, incorrect) perception/assumption.

As far as the spare time thing goes, I think it can be used as a "defense" because I don't believe this is anyone's job. This is something done outside of other obligations; it's only an obligation to the maintainer, who makes it voluntarily. And that's not a guarantee of performance to the user.

Our device is hamstrung from the start by incomplete kernel source code from Samsung, which may contribute to the issues our phones have. 10.1 nightlies may have been different sound-wise because the device settings were present. CM has stated that some of the old features may be missing for a short time while they migrate to a new settings structure. I believe they will be back eventually. And if it's so critical for you to have them/higher sound, run the nightlies that had them and forgo being on the bleeding edge of cutting edge for a while until they're merged back in.

I, for one, am grateful for what the devs do. I haven't updated to 10.2 yet because the graphical glitches are too bad for me. CM/sbrissen have stated we'll need a 4.3 leak or Samsung firmware to get the proper Mali blobs and properly fix them. Maybe I'll stay on 10.1 until that happens so I can maintain the function I personally value in my phone. Running each and every nightly or upgrading to 10.2 is a choice, so just acknowledge that and the risks and rewards that come with it.

I am confident the devs will fix the issues eventually, and I will donate at that point to show my gratitude, not before to encourage their progress.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] bL33d:
There was a system file u could edit to increase volume for 10.1 it worked great I posted the link in the liquid smooth thread.

I'm just waiting for cm10.2 to work after initial power off and reboot.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] libbycm:
What do you mean initial power off and reboot?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] ikithme:
If you want things fixed and aren't satisfied with the speed that the developer has decided to fix issues, then please by all means start developing your own ROM.

Remember, these people are developing and working on this ROM for fun and as a hobby that is not the main focus of their life! They have family, friends, work etc etc. They do NOT get paid for what they do, donations do NOT always go back in to the ROM nor do they guarantee your issue is going to be fixed, a donation is like saying "Hey I like your work so much I want to give you something for it", its like a gift, you don't expect anything in return.

No one is forcing you to donate for this ROM, in fact I don't believe I was once prompted to donate as I downloaded CM or GApps, it was suggested but never forced upon me, nor were there invasive donation pop up ads or anything.

As I said, if you aren't happy with how things are going in a ROM, learn how to build your own ROM and maintain it yourself.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] jimmypop13:
I tried this today and thought I'd give some input. It is not at daily driver status yet. I did a full wipe and installed using the newest twrp. I noticed file manager was not working, my favorite weather app Weatherbug was mostly unusable bc of the screen blackouts, and the advanced settings menu is missing and I was unable to turn off the lights for the menu and back buttons, which I need to turn off since I turn on soft keys. I know those are small issues in the grand scheme of things but man well I be happy when they get fixed. Everything else seems to be working great
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] chachi:
Format system and data beforehand perhaps, but first ring provider and ask them to reprovision / resend settings
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] SJonesGSO:
Do you think Verizon is able to do anything on their end? Or is this a defective device?

CyanogenMod 10.2 gets a stable release, focus now shifts to CM 11

sdswap????

I did a search both here and on the Cyanogenmod site but found nothing.

I am wondering if there is a (easy?) way to get sdswap working with Cyanogenmod? I have a 64GB card and have been using sdswap via a cusotmer ROM to have the 64GB seen as the internal phone memory. It works great but I would like to move to CM10.2 now that it is stable and I do not see that as an option?

Thanks,

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] bwinger79:
I am in the same boat as you. Gonna try an ODIN restore to stock tonight to see if I can get my radio working again. I have tried clean installs...restores from known good CWM backups and nothing will bring my cellular connection back. As much as I hate TW, looks like imma have to take the leap back to Android 4.1.2 to get this issue resolved. I will report back with my findings so you can get your issue resolved as well.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DaPoets:
I have tried multiple ODIN restores... now I'm stuck on roaming....

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] MrRedPants:
I got a replacement note 2 today (insurance. ..cracked screen). Rooted..unlocked with casual. Backed up stock. Wiped data and cache...installed 12.3.13 10.2 nightly with 0813 gapps. Noticed right away that mobile signal was there but no 4G. Messed with mobile networks to no avail. Try to make a call...no mobile networks available. Back to recovery (latest twrp). Full wipe. .. data/cache/system. Restored rooted stock backup. Mobile network problem all there. Hard to understand what is remaining after full wipe. I'm guessing this is a SIM card issue. I used my same card in this replacement phone. I have a new one I may try. Or call Verizon and ask them to reprovision phone.

Odd.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DaPoets:
That is really disheartening... I have flashed nearly 10 different Roms tonight. Odin up the wazzuu, and nothing is fixing this. I even swapped out sim cards.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] MrRedPants:
I just got off the phone with verizon and activating a new sim. Still no go. Its connecting to the LTE network but NOT the cdma.

Im going to stop for tonight. Unless a solution comes up overnight. .. my plan is to ODIN tomorrow. Of that alome doesnt work. I will switch sims again after odin.

Its hard to understand how a change that cyanogen put in place could remain...especially after odin. Thats why im womdering if its necessary for verizon to re activate sim after odin.

Thanks.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] MrRedPants:
Well, now "we" just need to figure out a stable nightly that didn't do this - I had a 10.2 nightly running on my phone with the cracked screen without any issues, but it would have been a November 2013 build.

Once you ODIN back to stock, do a factory reset, let us know if that resolves the issue.

I know it doesn't make sense, but, it seems to fix the issue.
