Any have a fix for the google service battery drain. I'm at 65% of my battery being used, I have turned the Google sync as mentioned in the earlier post.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] wildstang83:
Hmm, weird. It was on Nova Launcher (Prime/non beta) I first had the issue. So I removed it thinking it was Nova, but then it was happening on the stock launcher too.

I've flashed back to stock just to make sure, and walla, now my widgets are working perfectly. So I'll just download todays nightly and give it a try.

Thanks for the replies guys.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DreamFX:
Just use gps for location. Wifi and cell use up a lot. So turn off Wifi and cell location services. Other than that the Google sync issue has been corrected it doesn't do it to me anymore even with sync on.

Does this ROM have the 4.4 Google now dialer? I was reading on 4.4 devices that Google dialer would use your location no matter if u had a specific contact to search for numbers of businesses. I'm not seeing this integrated in this Roms dialer. And luck from any other users?

4.4.2 KitKat........ :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] eric2112:
Does anyone know of a way to install the stock Samsung camera on this or other AOSP(ish) ROMs? I found a few flashable zips in other threads, but it force closes when I boot and/or launch it. I really liked the burst shot on that camera. It made getting good pictures of my kids easy.

Another plus would be a camera with a working photosphere.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Mac of York:
No this has the AOSP dialer.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DreamFX:
Camera v5 all the way. It's a paid app. But it rocks. It also IMO takes the best pics on AOSP roms.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlvlawrence:
So I have a friend using cm on his phone. Towards the end of 10.2 and into cm11, he has been battling the can't connect to camera error. Just a few days ago, we did a clean flash of cm11 with PA gapps and it still is an issue. After reading back through this thread, I didn't see any of you guys talking about camera issues. Is this a gapps issue, or possibly a hardware issue? Any advice/help would be greatly appreciated from you guys. Thanks in advance.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DreamFX:
Does it work in fresh touchwhiz install?

I use PA gapps so it's not the gapps.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] fordmanck:
I just jlawrence a PM but I just flashed CM11 for my buddy on his GS3 and he's got the same issue.

This camera in the play store works.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.flavionet.android.camera.lite

I can't remember what gapps I had him use but I'm going to have him flash these when he gets home.

http://www.androidfilehost.com/?a=show&w=files&flid=10306

I'm pretty sure it's a gapp issue.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DreamFX:
Gapps that doesn't like certain phones? I swear I've used every release of PA gapps they have and never seen it before.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] fordmanck:
No, I don't think I used PA with him. I used dhackers. I use PA.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] pjim:
It rotates the wrong direction from east to west. North and south are good, but it turns backwards when rotated east or west. I keep checking the nightlies, but no fix yet.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlvlawrence:
Here is a picture of the issue.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dbrickg:
mine says N or NNE regardless of how I turn the phone... it wobbles a little while I'm turning, but then settles back to N
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mazz0310:
Is this compass issue why photosphere doesn't work too well on CM11?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] BradEK:
I had this issue with 10.2. Its one of the reasons I decided to go on to CM11. Since I have moved though I haven't encountered it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dbrickg:
Don't think it has anything to do with CM11. My phone has done that ever since I can remember. I thought I'd seen a lot of other people complaining about the general unreliability of the compass on the Note II, but now, searching for it, I can't find any of those references. Maybe I just imagined it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mazz0310:
Interesting. I've had photosphere on every rom I've used (mostly touchwiz) and I don't think I've ever had a problem with it except CM 10.2 ... maybe it's just AOSP for me. Not the end of the world, but I do like to take photospheres.

Just to make sure we are talking about the same issue, no matter what I do the I can never line the dot up with the middle of the screen to get it to take a photo. I basically chase it around the screen.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] whoot:
Is there any way to get rid of the overflow menu?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dbrickg:
Sorry I didn't make that very clear. I have no idea about your problem with photosphere. I was talking about the compass. It may well be that you're right about photosphere.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mlin:
I'm having this same issue. I did not try any other camera apps because that didn't change anything when this happened on my S4. I will flash the newest CM11 tonight and try again but using a different GAPPS possibly.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] runandhide05:
I know this sounds weird, I have several devices in my grasps.

However I can not access drop box (only on note2 cm11 nightly 12/17

Anyone that has drop box installed do me a favor and open a folder and hit refresh and tell me if you get this error.

Note I have already rebooted uninstalled rebooted installed and all the above.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DreamFX:
Nope it's working great.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] NRA_Bear:
Are you trying to use Host Card Emulation or the on-board secure element? I've been having the same issue after frying my secure element and having to resort to HCE. Google Wallet Tap & Pay says it's set up but GW doesn't read anything when you tap to pay. I've seen a couple threads and a cyanogenmod ticket stating that CM11 doesn't have HCE support for NXP chips. I believe our phones have the PN65 NXP chip.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mazz0310:
I'm pretty sure my hardware chip is fried also. I'm trying to use HCE. The NXP chip issue could explain it though because other threads I read it sounds like a lot of people have HCE working on different devices running CM11.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] chizler:
Drop box working for me also.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] nbock01:
Drop box working for me as well. Found my new daily driver. Running nightly from 12/17.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] metaphysicalgx2:
Anyone else having a lot of camera freezing on the last couple builds? Or unable to connect to camera errors on the 12 17 nightly? Any fixes? Clearing app data and then rebooting has only been a temp fix each time.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mlin:
I've had this issue. Try using a different camera app to see if it helps.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DrunkUncas:
I've spent most of the last year on Mikey's zero wake lag builds. They're unbelievably quick, and good for 48 hours of light usage.

As this 12/18 nightly is draining my battery faster than it can be recharged from the wall, it looks like I'm going back.

So on my buddies phone, flashing the PA gapps instead of the CM fixed his camera. He was also having problems with YouTube not working and it fixed that too.

Flashed that new Google Dialer and it seems to be working. I have to have the stock dialer enabled.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mlin:
Okay, I'm going to try this again.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] metaphysicalgx2:
I'll have to try that. Same issues with the other camera app I tried. Come to think of it, I was using the pagapps up until 4.4.2 and didn't have this problem.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] nick19268:
Proximity Sensor

Does anyone know if the proximity sensor not turning off issue has been fixed yet? I haven't seen any updates other than reporting the issue.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] fordmanck:
I only had a problem with it on one of the first nightly builds. I haven't seen it or heard anything about it since. You could try devil kernel if you're worried about it. The proximity sensor doesn't work at all with it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] nick19268:
Mine still remains on after calls. I just do a reboot if i notice it on and all is good. Hopefully this is resolved soon. Am I understanding that this bug is killing some users' sensors?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mazz0310:
What build are you on? I believe this was resolved before the official nightlies started.

I have not had an issue.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mrbobo1:
I was the one who reported my sensor died, I won't blame the ROM, it could have been a hardware fault that was going to happen either way, but I did run all the early builds where it was on continuously with the red light showing and one day it just died... you can download an app to test the sensor called phone tester on the play store to see what it's doing, it should say far and switch to near every time you put a hand in front of the sensor a few inches away and right back to far when you remove it, mine was showing far or near and sticking and not changing until sometimes when I rebooted the phone, even odined back to stock. I called verizon and they sent me a new phone and now I am good to go.

I think this was fixed several builds back before we went to the official nightlies, I have no problems with it now on last night's build.

My only issue with this rom is the compass having east/west switched, everything else is flawless.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] nick19268:
I am on the current 12/19 official build. Should I flash the newly released 4.3 firmware? Would that fix it?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DreamFX:
Proximity sensor has been fixed. And no flashing the new firmware won't fix this. But you could anyway to have the newest.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] nick19268:
I flashed my first kitkat build with the 12/15 nightly and it did it back then and then I updated to the 12/19 build this morning with cyandelta.

---------- Post added at 01:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:10 PM ----------

So what do recommend that I do? Should I reinstall the entire ROM or flash the entire package without using cyandelta and then clear cache and dalvik?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] fordmanck:
There is a 12/19 build up?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] nick19268:
I could have sworn that I got this ROM off of this thread. Could cyandelta have a different naming scheme? I have a couple screenshots of the about page and a screenshot of my cyandelta app. Is this an official build?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] fordmanck:
I honestly don't know what cyandelta is. I only download through the page I posted previous. Even so, the CM updater says I'm up to date.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] nick19268:
Cyandelta takes the changes from the current nightly and flashes those. It allows you to have a 20mb file to flash instead of a 200mb file. Should I just download the 18th and flash over what I have right now?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] fordmanck:
I would. I trust no shortcuts. If it's data you're worried about, wait until you're on Wi-Fi. I can't tell you how many people I've helped over the years after Rom Mangler or other such things screwed up their phone. People have been spoiled with one touch roots and such. Am I the only one that rooted my G1 with telnet? ;)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] nick19268:
Just flashed the 12/18 nightly and it still does it. Red and everything. I am probably going to have to reinstall completely.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] fordmanck:
Probably a wise decision.

I went ahead and downloaded cyandelta. It does indeed show an update.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] chachi:
Fwiw I never successfully used cyandelta it always caused an issue of some sort and I gave up
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DreamFX:
This cyan delta seems like it has trouble written all over it. It's an unofficial way of flashing updates without downloading the full 200 mb file. Come on now guys we all have high-speed Internet these days just download the full zip from cm. I never have issues that y'all have.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mising:
It must have been pulled for some reason, my CM updater showed up with 12/19 available in the status bar at around 7:30am Central. It failed about halfway through the download though. I went back and checked again manually, and 12/18 was the newest one available.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] nick19268:
That fixed it. Thank you very much! I appreciate everyone's help!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mlin:
Maybe cyandelta just builds at an earlier time each day...

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] WisdomWolf:
Anyone else noticing trouble with extended menus in applications? The more button in AIDE and the data button in Tasker do nothing. Not sure if it's a cyanogenmod issue or a KitKat issue or a stupid user issue.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] fordmanck:
I'm no sure what you're talking about but I have noticed I can't edit Facebook posts. So far that's the only thing I've seen that isn't working at all.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mlin:
I've been able to reliably reproduce the camera connection problem.

Can people try this and see if you get the camera connection error? Open the camera then with the camera open, shut the screen off. Turn the screen back on, exit the camera, then see if you can reopen the camera.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DreamFX:
Nope camera works perfect. Tried your steps several times. Sorry for your luck.

---------- Post added at 08:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:52 PM ----------

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] tgyberg:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] xcharliemikex:

Thanks for trying, I'm back on TW for now. I gotta have a reliable camera. Ill try again once I figure it how to submit bugs to the bug tracker.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] E30Nova:
Man, I never had a problem opening the camera.

Until reading all these posts today. I'm still on the 12/14 build and suddenly today I got my first "cannot connect to camera" error. Luckily a reboot fixed it, but every now and then after I take a picture and tap on the little thumbnail to go to the gallery, it will force close and say "camera has stopped working".

And I have custom sliders on the lock screen, one of the targets being google. Every now and then when I slide to the google icon, instead of bringing me to google now, it just takes me to the home screen. Anyone else have this problem?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] E30Nova:
So I just noticed my phone says I don't have an sd card mounted, but when I plug it into my computer it shows up just fine. The phone says it's an unrecognized file format. According to my computer, it's formatted as fat32. I could have sworn I had it formatted as exfat. What's the recommended format for aosp roms?

I remember searching for hours trying to find an app that would successfully format it back when I first switched to aosp about a year ago. I just don't have the app or remember what it was...

Edit: dgaf, backed it up and just formatted as fat32, my phone recognizes it now. *shrug*
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] bmerrill63:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dodgerslim:
http://goo.im/devs/OpenRecovery/t0ltevzw/openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.1-t0ltevzw.zip

And to anyone having camera issues (I was having the "can't connect to camera" also), try going into your internal storage, and either delete or rename your DCIM folder. Not only could I not "connect to camera", but when I could connect, the pictures wouldn't save. They'd just be brown blurs. Now it's all good! Worth a shot.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mlin:
Interesting, I'll give this a go.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] xcharliemikex:
Deleted the DCIM folder but still cannot connect to the camera. Hopefully mine will work after installing the latest nightly.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] fordmanck:
Everyone that's having camera issues, what gapps are you on?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] bigmike35:
I haven't had any camera issues at all, well it will start up and take pictures, sometimes force close but I haven't received that message people are referring to. I have used gapps from dhackers and banks and gapps from orginal build up to 12/18 (haven't flashed 12/20 yet)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mlin:
I've tried a couple. The PA package in the OP and a package from 11/19 that I used one the HTC One. Which do you use?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] fordmanck:
http://goo.im/devs/paranoidandroid/roms/gapps/pa_gapps-stock-4.4.2-20131215-signed.zip

I'm using those. They're also the version that fixed my buddies camera issues.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] E30Nova:
Weird, now even though the phone sees the SD card, CWM doesn't. I tried to make a nandroid and it said can't mount backup path. I tried formatting the card through CWM and it said something similar (already forgot lol). I'll try formatting it with the phone, but if CWM doesn't recognize it after that I don't know what else to do...

EDIT: Well, did some googling and found this link:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1786356

The only program actually needed was the fat32format.exe. I just formatted the card to exfat through Windows, and then used cmd to run fat32format and it formatted it nice and easy. Phone recognizes it now, too, and I'm already backing it up through CWM.

Just incase anyone has problems and needs to format to fat32.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mlin:
Haven't tried these yet. Gonna give it a whirl, I'll report back.

In Voice Messaging...pressed keys not recognized

I am almost positive on one of the early builds (the first I test when I had data working) that I was able to manage my voice mail box (press 7 to delete etc). I have tried two newer builds (on the 19th now) and once I am in my voice mail box, the phone pad keys are not recognized so I can not delete messages etc.

When back this summer when I tried some AOKP builds I had similar issues.

Of course, I never have had this issue on any Touchwiz builds.

I like 4.4.2 to much to move from it.

I am hoping it is something I have set wrong or not checked on my end. Even tried Google Dialer....same results.

I always do Zoots Mega wipe before installing. A very clean install.

Thanks for any help.
