[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] E30Nova:
I dunno if I'd worry about it honestly. When I first got my phone a year and a half ago, it slipped out of my pocket and fell around a foot and a half and shattered the screen (seriously wtf lol). I was freaking out because I was on twrp and some aosp rom but I had to return it to Verizon to get a replacement. They looked at it and checked to make sure everything was there (battery, 4g card, etc) and basically told me to hold tight while they went out back and got a new one. I'd say flash Beans if you don't feel comfortable going completely stock and you should be fine.

But what's the approximate date when all this APN stuff started happening? I briefly switched to PAC roms and after a few nightlies this started happening. My only option was to restore a backup of CM. I went to about phone and it says the build date is Feb 5th. I saw someone say that they flashed 3/02-ish, so I'm basically missing like a month of updates before this started happening. I just want to have the latest and greatest before MMS went away..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] bigmike35:
New build still having APN/MMS issues?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] MrMuzik:
It will probably suffer many issues until they get their crap together with these horribly experimental commits.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Rudy_Ruettiger:
According to the s3 forum the newest build still has the apn mms issues
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] bgowland:
My worry is they will want to do a master reset from recovery and see TWRP. I am thinking I can call them over the phone and go through all troubleshooting steps, then get the CSR to authorize a replacement, or warranty replacement over the phone. Then I can fully return this to stock when I ship it back.

Here is what I don't get. If its just a ROM issue, why do I still not have LTE after switching rom's, even back to Stock rooted 4.3 ROM? Did the bad CM11 mess up files etc on another partition or part of the phone? I wiped internal SD and sideloaded many different versions of CM11 (only back to 3-2), OmniROM, and now stock 4.3 rooted.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Rudy_Ruettiger:
On you dialer try *#*#4636#*#* and see if your radio got switched off of LTE. This has to be done on cm it doesn't work on tw.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] bgowland:
Thanks. I will give that a try today. Gotta flash CM back on. If it was switched off would it stay off during all ROM reloads? Sounds like it is a ROM independent setting?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Rudy_Ruettiger:
I want to say yes it would stay switched off. It's happened to me before but I can't remember for sure.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] sbrissen:
sim would be the issue, had it happen to me a few times. Did a live chat with vzw explained my problem and told them I think its the sim. they should send you a new one without charge.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] bgowland:
So it was set to lte/CDMA (prl). I switched through lte only, CDMA/lte, radio off,then back on. Nothing. When in went to lte/CDMA/gsm after a few seconds it went to lte only on its own and bam, lte showing now. Freaking sweet.

Now, what should it be set to?

---------- Post added at 08:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:35 PM ----------

Ok, so it shows LTE but the quick panel shows no service and phone doesn't work.

So I change it back to LTE/CDMA autp (PRL) and I get 3g and phone service. Network type shows eHRPD.

Geesh. I guess I will waltz into Verizon tomorrow and get a sim.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] E30Nova:
Looks like the 3/12 nightly may fix the MMS issues. It mentions adding APN's and removing a CDMA fix.

Here's hoping. :fingers-crossed:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] bigmike35:
Have you tried a new sim? My sim went bad one day just on its own, I have seen your post the past few days, it stock or custom dont show lte try getting a new sim...

And if you are verizon, gsm won't work at all....

---------- Post added at 06:55 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:55 AM ----------

If you flash it let us know! I am thinking of making the switch maybe, let me check the commits
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] E30Nova:
Nobody wants to be the guinea pig for the new nightly? lol

I'm almost maxed out on my data so I don't want to download it without WiFi, otherwise I'd do it...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Flipapotimus:
I'm at work but I am downloading it and I guess I will try. Making a backup right now.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Rudy_Ruettiger:
No more APN MMS issues on the newest nightly.

---------- Post added at 02:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:06 PM ----------

I have noticed there seems to be some issue with Google now launcher interfering with with playing music.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Flipapotimus:
I got pretty busy for a while there but I am not having APN issues either. I can send and receive MMS on hangouts now also.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] bgowland:
So new sim fixed my issues. Feel like a goober. Of course it was sim. Just the no APN bit me the same time I noticed no LTE so I kept putting them together.

So just got done full wipe, 3-13 nightly. All working great again. Great to be back on 4G :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] BigggJack:
Good to hear you guys are having better luck with the messaging, fortunately I never had any issues with it using the included messaging app.

Overall it's nice to be back to running a non TW ROM, this paired up with the AGNi kernel are working well for me. :D

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] rclar144:
Not sure about the ROAMING indicator off under the LTE on my tiles pull down! Anyone else have this!?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] MrMuzik:
Yes. It's been around forever. Toss in a custom eri file or use an Xposed module that changes it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] thejudgement223:
Yeah I have it too.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Lodingi:
Messaging on the latest nightly worked for a few minutes, then stopped working. Not sure what to think at this point.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] CallerHoller:
Dagnabit! I'm bound and determined to bork my phone. Dropped it outa truck into the rain now I pore my coffee across the ear piece. I better start thinking about what I want for a new phone. I think fate is a knocking.

***March 17th Aaarrrggh! Dropped my phone again. No cracks though. ??
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] rufflez2010:
Considering this is one of the last phones you could unlock the bootloader on Verizon, it would be a very tough decision to get a new phone. I went and got the Note 3, but had many issues with mine and hated the fact that Samsung used about 2.25GB of your 2.5GB available RAM, it was pissing me off. The icons needed to be redrawn on the screen every time you hit the home button. It was like a reminder of why I hate TouchWiz so much. I ended up buying another used Note 2 and am much happier now.

I will probably end up switching carriers before I buy another phone on Verizon. I live in a highly populated area and go out of the country about once a year, so T-Mobile is tempting.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DreamFX:
Did you get sms working? I have been doing extensive testing to try and figure out why us folks in central pa lost texting on aosp roms on 2/20. I downloaded an app called android system info. I launched it on TW(where texting always works) and CM(where texting doesn't), Went to telephony tab and found something rather interesting. The network operator name for TW rom is Verizon Wireless and for CM it's Roaming Indicator Is Off. Someone said a few posts back to change the ERI file or use an xposed module to removing this from the notification area which it does but never does it change the hardcoded network operator name.

I am thinking for some reason on Central PA towers that they are enforcing the Network Operator name to be correct or it won't allow texts to go through. The reason I know Verizon is actually getting the texts I send because I sent like 15 in a row they all in CM act like they didn't send. I immediately restored back to TW and I received all 15. Something in the CM code (why only for Central PA) which seems like its the network operator or some other similar setting needs to be changed to work.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] thejudgement223:
No I didn't, but what you discovered is definitely interesting. Maybe changing the Network Operator will fix our problem.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DreamFX:
I have looked everywhere for where to change this. The mentioned eri file doesn't contain the actual network operator info that I can tell. It's more of a visual change hence that's why xposed can change it but it doesn't actually change the network operator. Now I'm just grasping straws that this is it. But I am confident if Verizon doesn't fix this on their end there has to be something CM can do for us to allow texts to go through. Since they work on all TW roms. Does anyone know where the network operator info is stored? It's not in the eri file I looked several times. And my 2nd question is why is the network operator screen grayed out in mobile networks?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] thejudgement223:
I've been using this the last two weeks while I wait for this to be fixed. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2564947

networkType:5 is CDMA only for me. I have the task start when I open hangouts, and it switches back to networkType:8(CDMA+LTE/EVDO) when I exit. This allows me to send sms flawlessly
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] CallerHoller:
Yeah I'm hearing that too. I've been preparing my self to buy retail for my next phone, I still have unlimited. However with all the new phones being so bloated and locked up I'm gravitating towards a good tablet to satisfy my new tech urges.

Next month Lenovo is releasing a 10" Yoga tablet that looks tempting.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DreamFX:
Going to try this later. Thank you!

Just in case anyone wasn't already aware, Devil Kernel was updated and works on the latest nightlies again.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] JamesR624:
Could someone please elaborate on this. Just telling us to toss in a file we know nothing about or not even telling us if such an xposed module even exists really isn't any help at all.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DreamFX:
Ok I just flashed the lastest CM11 on my HTC Rezound and network operator says Verizon Wireless. I also booted up my old Thunderbolt with CM9 and the network operator says Verizon Wireless. It seems that our phones and some others for whatever the CM devs decided to change our network operator name to Roaming Indicator Is Off. I truly believe this is why 570 and 717 area codes can't use the latest CM builds because of this issue. I am able to send texts on the rezound and thunderbolt but not the Note 2.

EDIT:

I just confirmed this the CM10 builds are working great to send texts on the note 2. They also say network operator Verizon Wireless as they should
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] krowley3:
I had this working fine on the 3/10 build (No roaming indicator off) and it said Verizon. I just did a diff on the new framework res from the 3/10 build and the latest nightly and there are quite a few xml folders missing. I am thinking it is specifically the xml-mcc311-mnbc480 folder with matching eri.xml missing that is causing this problem. I am going to recompile the latest nightly with that folder/eri.xml added and see if that takes care of it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DreamFX:
I just made my own custom build just swapping out the ERI file from an older build and it now says Verizon Wireless as it should but I still can't send texts. But it's weird i let my phone set for 20 mins and then the texts finally went through......

I don't see the missing folder that your referring too.

EDIT: I see the old build im looking @ from January doesn't have those folders and the new builds do
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] krowley3:
Try the latest nightly with the linked framework-res.apk and report back.

---------- Post added at 12:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:15 PM ----------

bootloops
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] krowley3:
Try putting it in a flashable zip and dirty flash it. I just put it in the 3/17 nightly and flashed dirty over the 15th build with no problems.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DreamFX:
texting working for you now doing it this way?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] krowley3:
It never didnt work for me, just trying to help you out. I was bugged by that stupid Roaming Indicator Off.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DreamFX:
oh hahaha. i appreciate the help....the issue is just so bizarre for the handful of us 570/717 area code folks......i can't find a 10.2 build to try but the latest 10.1.3. stable allows texting again.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] CallerHoller:
Has anyone tried using an older radio? Everything being described with sms issues is what I experienced when I tried to flash mj9 radios. I flashed with three different zip files. Although I never tried to Odin it. My phone just wouldn't take the mj9. So what I'm theorizing is something changed in the ROM that is making phones that previously worked fine to not communicate properly with the towers. My phone works great on VRAM3 radios.

My APN is greyed out and Network Operator is greyed and says "Choose a network operator".
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] krowley3:
I recompiled the framework to hopefully take care of the bootloop. Please do a clean install of 3/17 and flash this right after.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DreamFX:
Verizon Wireless is now showing as the Network Operator name. But I still can't send anymore than 1 text without toggling airplane mode. Also CDMA only lets me send texts.

This is so frustrating. Why does TW let me text all day,, everyday but not AOSP!!!!!!

I'm on 3/3 and haven't had a single problem. Haven't even been on xda until today it's so stable. Battery is pretty killer too @ 36 hours and 6 screen on. Scared to flash anything else now lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DreamFX:
Guys I have sent the dev a detailed log and logcat of everything I have tried to get sms working. I told him I wasn't the only one with the issues. My HTC thunderbolt and rezound. One with cm9 the other with cm11 both allow texting. With so many people with s3, s4, and note 2 with issues. I'm starting to think it's a Samsung specific issue. Hopefully we here back from the dev soon. I'll keep everyone posted. :D (remember this is mainly for 717, 570 and parts of Virginia issue.)

3/17 nightly here, battery is awesome! Still experiencing the "roaming indicator off" message, and some weird lockscreen issues. No SMS issues in (302) anymore.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] krowley3:
Roaming indicator off is fixed in 3/19 nightly. They finally reverted all the vendor/cm overlays to allow our overlays to work the way they should. I have not had any SMS issues, but SMS/MMS and everything is working fine for me. I am also no longer seeing that lockscreen issue. I recommend you update.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Lodingi:
Are you one of the 570/717 peeps? Great news if so.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] krowley3:
I am not. I have never had any SMS issues.

Drat. I found CM10.2 and flashed it. SMS was working at first, but after a few hours, it stopped working. Very bizarre. It may be time to start thinking upgrade.

I find that if I enter the 2 second pause after the voicemail number to enter password, i.e. *86,,xxxx. The dialer becomes unresponsive, in that I cant use the dialpad commands in voicemail, like press 7 to delete and so on. I wouldn't say anything but don't know how to fix it. If I take out the pause and enter the password manually, works as intended. Kinda weird.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] bigmike35:
Anyone having camera issues, not the focus problem but my problem, over the past few builds, my camera will work for a few shots or just one, then it won't take anymore pictures and I can't back out, I have to use the kill app (hold back). Then when I start it back up, sometimes it works for another picture or two then repeats or sometimes doesn't work at all and have to keep killing until then. Once in a while I can snap off like 5 pictures before it stops responding before I have to kill it. I am using AGNI kernel, stock camera (pa gapps 3/21/14), just weird I know it used to not do this, (for me anyways) the focus was a slight problem but never noticed anything like this.

Still fantastic battery life - 1 day 14-20 hours with +-5hours ON Screen

Sms/MMS issues are fixed for me along with "Roaming Indicator" Under Signal in Quick Settings. (Shows Verizon)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] nathan_barstow14:
What are you running to achieve this kind of battery life? Radio, kernel, undervolt settings, governor, scheduler, keep data off most of the time? I don't even see Google Services appearing on your list, and it's always the second or third highest on mine. I'd love to get this kind of battery life.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] nullmem:
Stock kernel, default settings, however this is a light usage day with very little screen time. The intent of my post was to show the recent improvements of battery life during standby/sleep. Google services is not on my list because my location services stays off most of the day, as I only use it when I am driving to and from work. As of yet, I haven't tested for noticeable improvements in screen time with this build. I would imagine it would be about the same due to the battery hungry display of our device. I do however use lower brightness while indoors and use dark themes for most my frequently used apps.

On the negative side WiFi is #1 on my list because my phone is connected to 5Ghz WiFi and I have services that periodically use the internet such as Pushbullet and Weatherbug. The 17% cell standby is caused by LTE because I can't set to "CDMA w/o EvDo" while connected to WiFi with recent builds. This is due to a bug that results in continuous connection resetting. Unfortunately, I have been busy lately and have not had a chance to submit a bug report.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dtroup64:
Battery has been fantastic for me today as well. I flashed this as soon as I saw Nullmen's first post on the topic, and I'm having a blast. So far, everything is running beautifully, I'm at 7 1/2 hours at 87% and that's good enough for me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dtroup64:
Latest nightly is running perfectly so far. FYI.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mithusingh32:
Wouldnt say perfectly lol.

The screen on/off during calls is buggy has hell.

Majority of the time the screen turns off and you can turn it back on unless you pull the battery.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Joebroni:
Using 0325 and now the camera stuff is showing it's head again. Has froze on me twice taking a picture and starting to record video. "Cannot connect to camera" after closing and restarting. Only a reboot fixed it. It worked last night after the reboot.

I've always had screen on/off problems on the 4.4 ROMS. I push a script nowadays to reset the proximity sensor and it tends to stick during reboots. If you use Elixir2 you'll see the proximity sensors on most of these doesn't work and that causes the phone call problems. Some ROMS give me auto brightness problems too but I haven't experienced that in a while.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] nullmem:
This happens to me as well. The workaround is to press the button on right side of phone to put it to sleep, wait 2-3 seconds then press it again. The phone should be awake.

Dalvik was working fine, but I just switched to ART a few minutes ago and I've been getting constant force closes. I'm thinking ART might be the issue for you as well.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] chachi:
Not using ART sadly ... this is/was a long-running CM11 which I was updating every other night if not nightly, and last night's 0331 caused something to go kablooey.

Formatting system/cache and reverting to 0330 doesnt clear it, logcat shows repetitive phone crashes due to "Unknown URL content://telephony/carriers/current"
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Tkun:
Try flashing an older ROM that works with ART. That's what I'm doing. I've been on PA for awhile, so I don't know how long this issue has persisted on CM, thus I'm currently flashing random old nightlies until I find one that works, first one I'm trying is 3/27.

EDIT: 3/27 works with ART! I guess I'll be staying on this one until I know a newer nightly is compatible with this runtime.
