Streaming Music Issues

Unless I missed it I'm not seeing where anyone has reported significant music streaming issues but I am having a problem. I can stream Spotify or Google Music (not located on device) for a few songs but then it will stop. As far as I can tell this is an issue with internet connectivity but is not dependent on network or location. I have tried uninstalling the software, booting to Philz, wiping dalvik and cache, rebooting, reinstalling, and get the same issue. I can also reboot the rom and then I can stream a few more songs. In Spotify, for example, I can stream a few songs until I get the "click to continue" followed by an ad. The ad doesn't play and then I can't go on from there. I've tried opening the browser and loading a webpage hoping it would jump start or refresh the network connection somehow but that doesn't seem to help. I click the play icon in either app and within a couple seconds it reappears as the play icon. I have not received any errors within either app indicating a network connection error. I've only tested with these two apps so far, will try Amazon music app now and see if I get the same result. This has been happening for a while but I haven't had a chance to look into it. Has anyone else run into this issue?

Edit: I should note that I was only able to replicate the problem twice in the Google Music app, both instances were followed by a hotboot within minutes. I also understand that there is apparently an issue with Spotify on Android versions after ICS, I would have thought they had this worked out by now. I'm not entirely convinced this is a rom issue, just thought I would ask here to see if anyone else is having this problem, thanks all.

Newmc , I don't know if it's same thing some people have issues with but can try turning Google hot word detection off and see if that works. It helps with music skipping so might be worth a shot.

calculator history

is there anyway to view the calculator history I see there's an option to clear it but I haven't seen a way to view it
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] hellraiser2011:
Just got to say this is an amzing ROM. Super fast and works perfectly on my Note 2. Thanks Dev.

Will you ever make this ROM for Sprint Note 3?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] macpat83:
Just recently rooted and this is the first ROM I'm trying. Love it so far but the battery life isn't the greatest. Is there anyway to tweak the kernel settings?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] NewMC:
Thanks Dhadowpaw, I think I tried that but will try it again.

Does anyone else have an issue where Documents force closes anytime it's called by another app?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mazwoz:
Unfortunately we only Dev for devices we own and none of us for the note 3. I am not even on Sprint anymore. I moved out of the country and am now using an international S5.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] justcallmejohan:
How would I go about doing either of those? Always updated profile and PRL before flashing any AOSP or AOKP ROM so I'm not sure if that makes a difference
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] aheeejd:
You have to do exactly that, make a backup, flash tw, do your thing & while there might as well get GPS lock, soon as you get GPS lock, boot right into recovery, wipe & then restore backup

hello everyone great rom only issue im having is when i go to the play store it says no connection i also tried with wifi and it says the same thing thanks
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] justcallmejohan:
Would this still work if I use a TWRP backup I made before flashing 4.3 DIRT? Also, is it necessary to wipe all my Maps data and cache?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mazwoz:
Good Morning,

I apologize that you are having issues and I will do what I can to help, but I do expect users to attempt to find a solution on their own before just asking in the threads. Here is what I found after searching google for "google play store says no connection" http://wccftech.com/fix-no-connection-retry-error-message-on-google-play-store-app/ It was the first link.

Hopefully this helps.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mazwoz:
As long as that backup is of a TW ROM and you can get a PRL Update and GPS fix it should work. Yes you will need to wipe all maps data and cache.

help might brick my phone

Ok i installed what seems to be the new Devil kernel but it wasn't and my phone was actually working ( ROM- Dirty Unicorns 4.3) until i boot into TWRP recovery and now the phone just flashes on the Samsung screen. It won't go into recovery mode. Try pulling the battery and still doing the the same, even trying to put in recovery by holding the up volume+power button+wake button. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I guess i will be taking back to the store for a replacement since i still have the warranty on it. :(

Nvm I was able to get it to boot again using Odin yes session thx guys!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] justcallmejohan:
So PRL update, GPS lock on maps, and then wipe Maps data and cache?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] dd323:
I am
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] ehusidic:
What kernel do you guys like with this ROM? Battery life vs performance?? Thanks for your inputs
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] rudyrude432:
Good question. I want battery life myself.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] saddler2kx:
You mind me asking how I can test the plasma kernel for Note 2
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] cuezaireekaa:
Nevermind this post. Didnt see that the poster found it! Lol good job. Its running pretty good

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] aheeejd:
I obviously don't know for sure but it sounds like you flashed the recovery, in post #79, I explained to not dl the one that says recovery in it, dl the one that says duel boot. Like I said, not sure what you did but if you did flash the recovery then you should ask in that thread what to do. Worst case, can you get to download mode, power, home key, volume down? If so just install a rom via Odin, could be an option. Hope you get it figured out.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mazwoz:
Try flashing TWRP from goo.im. This should fix that problem.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mazwoz:
Yup
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mazwoz:
I think the CM kernel that comes with it is very fast and has great battery life, but that is my opinion. If someone has a better kernel that is definitely an option.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mazwoz:
You should check out Dirty Unicorns on your D710 as well. KTempleton did a great job building for it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Skripka:
IMHO, the stock kernel has much better speed and smoothness than Devil as of now. Battery life is hard to tell, it takes a day or so at least for a ROM to settle in and battery life to normalize.

Also some apps like G+ have severe sync wake lock issues depending on how they're set up.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] JayDean03:
Flashed Devil Kernel and it's running smooth. Killed all the issues and battery life is cool. Sound is A1 as well.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mazwoz:
Battery life can't be judged in the first couple days. Give it about a week and then let me know. Also, features like active display can kill the battery.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] NewMC:
Is anyone having an issue with com.android.phone continuously force closing? This just started yesterday but displays the crash message every couple minutes and it's killing my battery. The phone still works to call out and receive calls but it constantly takes the focus away from whatever app is currently running until you clear the notification. I've tried clearing the phone and dialer cache from settings/apps and also cleared the cache and dalvik from within recovery. I have not been able to find a "fix permissions" within Philz Touch but would try that if anyone knows how to get to it. My only other thought is to reflash the rom over top and hope it clears the problem without causing other issues. I'm all ears if anyone has any suggestions. I'm on vacation (these things always happen when you're traveling for some reason) so have limited resources but will try any suggestions. Thanks

The only change I made in the last week was installing the Navionics boating app, I was roaming all week though and when I tried *2 it went to Verizon. I'm on the way home now and haven't received any error since finding a tower where I wasn't roaming. I assume there was a Google service that wasn't able to update while roaming for so long, seems to have resolved itself now. Thank you!

Maybe it would have helped to update my prl but I'm not sure how to force that with this rom and the old Sprint code doesn't seem to work anymore.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] macpat83:
Battery life has improved a bit but I may also just need a new battery.

2 other issues I have run into is embedded videos in any browser just displays a black screen.

And Google+ latest update soft bricks my phone. Causes a process.android.systemui has stopped unexpectedly. Thought it may have been due to ART, but I was running Dalvik, tries switching to ART and phone never boots.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Shadowpaw:
When you try to go to art are you using xposed by any chance? Art wont boot with xposed then with browser I had a few issues with video myself but once I installed flash and rebooted most seemed to work. But had better luck with dolphin than chrome stability wise. But the browser I had best luck with was UC Browser for videos. When you play videos from that and click the expand icon to fullscreen video it goes into a player kinda like mx and lets you adjust volume and brightness just like it too. Try and give UC a try for videos and see how that goes
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Furman69:
Unfortunately the process com.android.systemui has stopped

Today There was an update for a google app, i didn't read which one it was either google now or google search and after the update I get this error constantly to where the phone is unusable i tried dirty flashing it. Still didn't work. So i did a clean flash and reset everything and once booted up I started re installing everything and updated the same thing(at the time didn't know this was the culprit) and again get the same error so something w/ that update is causing issues. Was wondering if it happened to anyone else.

Edit: updated each app one by one and it seems its google+ causes the crashes
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Devotech:
The Google+ update killed the ui process for me also. Both the latest test build and the previous one also. Continuous crash loops. Makes device completely useless.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
The first thing I do when I setup a rom is turn off auto updates. If everything works I dont update it. Like they say if it aint broke dont fix it. LOL!!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] TopshottaYut:
I read on another forum that the guy who manages the Note 2 version of this rom is active in the military so I am great full that he or she is doing their part for our country !!! I love this Rom and had few problems with it but with everything that was included i cant be upset but with that said could any one else pic up where our guy left off lol because im getting that com.systemui error and the rom is unusable now lol
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mazwoz:
I am active military, and I'm still around. We have a fix for the g+ system ui thing, I just don't have a build yet. My internet has been down for a couple days.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] TopshottaYut:
Oh cool thanks so much for the hard work I just went back to my stock rom I don't think i care to try anyone else rom lol. Would you be adding the updates that the other versions of the roms have been getting ? And are there any plans for the Galaxy Note 4?

Service Issues

Flased using cwm started up got no service. Its been a couple hours still getting no service wondering what i should do? Please Help, Otherwise working beautifully

Thanks
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mazwoz:
I'll be doing the fix soon, just haven't had a chance. We only support phones we have and at this time no one plans to get the note 4.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mazwoz:
Please search before posting. This issue has been addressed multiple times. Also, sometimes flashes can be bad. Try to redownload and flash again after a full wipe.

---------- Post added at 03:52 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:42 AM ----------

OK I'm getting a 404 for the gapps link
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mazwoz:
I'll look into this, for now use the download center in the ROM.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] hondafreak513:
I used liquid gapps.. Been long time since I seen ya last in the og evo.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mazwoz:
Yeah, those were the days. Working on the s5 now.

Sweet thanks so much
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] cobb_cruiser:
ok, noob question: how do you capture logcat to submit? Not that I can do for the previous problem I had since I switched to LS ROM since I had to have mute capability. However, I'll try your latest stable/official version. I really do like your ROM. Hoping this one will work ok :).
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] the12nv:
Hello to All - long time rooter that has been off the scene for a while. I just re-rooted my Note II and wanted to try out the DU Kit Kat, however the download link is not working on my Laptop or on my phone. Does anyone have a working link I can use?

Thanks in advance

Tested link on first page with my phone and no issues here. Maybe try again
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mikegenkin:
Anyway to hack the volume? Anything like in the Jellybomb Domination rom to increase the audio on the phone? Also anyway to get the Youtube2 app on this rom?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mazwoz:
Someone else was saying they had issues as well. I'll try to mirror it on one of my other servers later.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mazwoz:
Look for apps that do it. I don't have any problems with the volume on this ROM. Never have and I'm 40% deaf.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mikegenkin:
I usually use Speaker Boost, but it does nothing on this rom, the volume booster in Xposed Installer, does nothing either. The volume in itself is alright, but when it comes to watching movies, listening to music, and especially talking via speaker phone it isn't that loud. And so the apps I've tried might not be compatible with the kernel on this rom I'm assuming. Do you happen to know how to increase the Db higher than it should be without an app, or any apps you might have come across?

Thank you for replying btw :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Shadowpaw:
The way I boosted my volume was installing plasma kernel and installing synapse. Under the audio tab you can boost your speaker volume you'll have to turn off voodoo and turn of wolfson if you just want to use synapse or there will be a link right next to voodoo to download the app to control it and there are boost settings in there as well. With Art runtime plasma didn't play well for me but was fine on dalvik, which is the default so if you don't mess with that then no worries.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] whomafia:
I'm having issues too "Oops page not found."
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mikegenkin:
Thank you I'll try it out.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] goast:
I want to put this on my friends phone I know theme chooser was added to du but does this have it too
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mikegenkin:
Connecting phone to tv to watch movies worked excellent on stock and other roms, doesn't seem to pick up hdmi connection now. Is the Rom? If so any suggestions?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] threesix10:
Having an issue where it says android.phone stopped working. It happens every few seconds.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Shadowpaw:
I would try booting into recovery and wiping cache and dalvik cache. You could also go into developer options and swap runtime to art and reboot and see if the error goes away then toggle back to dalvik if starts getting unstable. It runs perfect for me on art using the default kernel.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] TopshottaYut:
issue with wifi tethering I will sit there and say turning on and then when I search for it it doesn't have the SSID that I chose for it it says androidAP

Boot Looping after flashing

Hi all,

I tried flashing this rom, and after doing so, was stuck in a continuous boot loop. Installed philz 6.07.9, wiped system/data, flashed, no go. Tried the "wipe for new rom" feature in philz, flashed, and no go. Nothing worked, downloaded the rom 3 separate times and tried installing from internal sd, external sd, and still no go.

Then i downloaded LiquidSmooth 4.4.4, and that flashed no problem. Went back into philz, wiped, flashed back to Dirty Unicorns, and back to boot loop. Any ideas? I'm scratching my head on this one.

Thanks!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] the12nv:
My recommendation would be to do the old school version of cleaning. Going in through TWRP and wiping factory / system / cache / and dalvik. This seemed to help me boot up. I am however having an issue with obtaining data and I have been trying to nand back to my rooted stock version and I am stuck on the samsung screen. Any help on this is greatly appreciated.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] losttaco:
Lovin the rom!!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] knewbee4lyfe:
ummm...

So I don't know if its my phone but...

Its been a while since I've done a root. I got excited when I saw this ROM. It was everything I wanted. I watched 2 or 3 you tube reviews and it was nothing but amazing. So I did it.

First time flashing this phone so... I was wondering... I can't connect to a mobile network. I've flashed the last 3 builds. And reflashed each 3 times. I tried a different ROM jellybomb or something... And I just can't get the network to get access. I even tried activating through sprint, or dialing. But it can't find the mobile network to complete the code call. So.. Am I missing something? Do I have to reflash a radio? (Wasn't in the instructions) I am running sprint note 2 and well... If possible. Can someone give me some help. Or even direct me to where I can re download the sprint radio settings. Thanks.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] hondafreak513:
Try reflashing the stock Rom
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mazwoz:
Did you flash anything different, kernel or xposed?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mazwoz:
TWRP is not supported. It's a known issue.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mazwoz:
Are you using TWRP?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Shadowpaw:
Na didn't load up xposed. I tried plasma kernel but ended up just reflashing and staying with the stock kernel.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mazwoz:
Still having issues with stock?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Shadowpaw:
Na been running good just still keep jumping roms all the time. I usually use plasma kernel but with update plasma didn't play nice. But stock ran great on dalvik and art runtimes. Just can't download torrents without lockups where i got to pull battery only problem I've experienced but that's been an old problem.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mazwoz:
Awesome
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] knewbee4lyfe:
yes i am... so I don't need to reflash firmware or anything like that? I want to know

also, used the last 3 updates u had...

i figured it was the radio... cuz i think i forgot to use the android tool kit. but i have to make sure thats what i need to do... "reflash stock firmware"?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Skripka:
Use PhilZ recovery and it'll work...TWRP has never worked for flashing 4.4 builds of any sort on L900
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] knewbee4lyfe:
3... things...

1. i hit that thanks button

2. should i reflash to stock first... or just go straight to philz

3. ummm... how do i use phillz? I mean, I've only used twerp and adb and the last time i flash was twerp and so I don't even know how to boot to phillz?

I did see that the android tool kit installed odin twerp and phillz but i don't know how to boot to philz
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Shadowpaw:
You can either get a zip and flash from your recovery or you can grab the .tar and odin it to phone. To boot into recovery while phone powered off hold up and power then if your going to odin anything from pc down and power is for the download mode for odin.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] knewbee4lyfe:
just want to say thanks for the help. i've downloaded note2_cwm... .tar and odin flashed it since it seemed like twrp wouldn't let me install the .zip file. (i kept leaving it alone cuz it didn't say philz. my bad, same thing)

phone says sprint again. thanks for the help.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] rivethead23:
The newest ROM looks good and is fast and smooth. I flashed this this morning and had two annoying problems both possibly related-

1) When using the provided launcher or the stock Google launcher (What they used to call GEL)- if I try to use the "Ok Google" keyword to search (from the launcher screen) often I have to say it a couple times to get it to work. Never had this problem until this ROM. Tried disabling the keyword listening on the launcher settings but to no avail. I also tried to use the launcher keyword functionality instead but it suffers from the same problem. I have to say whatever it is 3-4 times to get it recognize.

2) Once Google Now's search is listening it will transcribe a word or two of my search then freeze and the Google Search app will force close. This problem occurs in this ROM, CM 11, and other non touchwiz roms I have tried. I happens whether I initiate the search using the "OK Google" keyword or click the microphone. To test if it was something wrong with the actual transcribing I dictated for about 2 minutes an email in Gmail with no problem. It does not occur in any of the TW roms I have tried. Could be a problem with AOSP/AOKP and the newest google search.

I use the Google Now functionality alot (maybe more than I should). Unfortunately it's a dealbreaker if it doesn't work. Any suggestions or help would be appreciated as I'd love to get back on DU.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mazwoz:
Did you flash a different kernel, install xposed, our anything else that is noon standard?

What gapps are you using? If using PA, try Banks.

I haven't had any issues and I use or all the time.
