A temporary workaround to this problem with the fonts overlapping (at least for me) is to simply rotate the screen, and rotate back. When it is back to the original orientation, the fonts will stay the way they should. At least until you go to the next page. Then lather, rinse, repeat. Always repeat.

It really had nothing to do with this Rom... but this person had the same issue and this tells how to resolve it... http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2149805

Had a he'll of a time with this. .. Every time I'd manually edit the build.prop I'd end up with a rom that won't load (froze on the boot animation).... i had to dirty flash to fix...

I ended up using build prop editor out of play store... worked fine so far... hope this fixes the battery usage... watching the battery meter has been like watching my gas gauge on my hummer....
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] cbrinnny:
I edited the file within root explorer by mounting read/write and select open in text editor, save the file, mount r/o and reboot. Also, I decided to take agni kernel for a spin with and use a different governor and so far so good.

So is it worth waiting for the patch to be done or should I go ahead and flash this now. I'm on version 1.5.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Daciple:
Guess depends on you. I love it, features are up to par & has been great for me. Everything has been working great for me, except the bug in "Settings", can't access volume in sound & data useage! Plus like the darker layout. Didn't like bright background & the battery drain with it that way!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] puritan007:
no reason not to flash now. the patch will be OTA I believe so might as well be ready for it when it comes...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Hindle1225:
I'll throw my two cents in the hat.

When an ota patch becomes available I'd rather throw it on top of a clean flash anyways. This is really the only way true bug reports can be handled. I am holding off on flashing V2 until the patch is available. At that time I will load the rom and the patch at the same time.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] chipsa964:
I'm not sure if anyone else is having the same problem, but I've had it in previous builds of this rom as well. I keep connecting and disconnecting from my Wi-Fi. My signal is perfect, none of my other devices do this, and I'd imagine that it sucks battery life. Any idea on why this happens?

I recall an option in the install for dark or light option. Dirty flash it. Also someone posted a dark N3B option a few pages back. This would work I believe.

---------- Post added at 01:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:41 PM ----------

My 3 cents then. v2 is my daily driver since it came out. Other than modifying the option to extend battery life (which works) this thing is way stable and way cooler than 1.5... I don't understand all the issues some others have but it shouldn't keep you from trying it. It isn't hard to revert so there really is no harm is there? After all isn't this why we rooted these damn things? More crack flashing the better... IMHO

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Woof_:
Been using this rom since release. I like it but the battery life is not great. On the agni kernel and my battery monitor says the kernel is using 25 percent of my battery time. Haven't set any changes to it in the control app. Wondering if anybody else is seeing this. Phone has been off the charger for 9 hours and I'm at 27 percent. On the previous version I'd be lucky to be below 50 percent by this time

Do yourself a favor and wait for the fixes. The version 2 bugs aren't worth the trouble of dealing with.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] anaya1213:
What are you talking about? What bugs? You mean the force closes on

the settings? cause those are the only bugs I'm having, and other than that

this rom is running so good, and after turning off wake lag the battery is great.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] johnp357:
Option for dark or light..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] haf21:
Are you turning off location reporting?

There's a lot of Samsung apps running you can freeze. Music, hub, etc. This probably won't save you much & you have to be careful with what you're freezing.

But the 2 main things I did is fix the zero wake lag build prop (I used ROM toolbox) and deleted the true one. So my phone takes an extra half a second to wake, big deal.

The other main thing to do is go into the Google settings app (mine is a grey icon with a gear) and turn off location reporting for Google+, maps and whatever else is using it. I also used ROM toolbox to disable the NIp wake lock I was getting from Google play services in auto start manager. I'm also using wake lock terminator for the play store & Google play services. But I'm not sure it's doing anything. This is all basic battery saving stuff really.

I also switched to lulzactivq governor in the AgNi settings. I'm also trying out the pegasus battery governor ATM, which seems to be fantastic so far (although a slight hit in performance when switching apps, etc)

I still have 50% after 18 hours of moderate use, including 30 minutes or so of navigation running on this ROM.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] larry_thagr81:
The only bugs that I've experienced based on what I was looking forward to is the battery drain, mobile hotspot icon for GPS lock, music controls and nonfunctional volume rocker with the screen off. Also everything mentioned in post 2621 that Deck said he will address. Some people have mentioned email bugs in earlier posts as well for hacked version.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] boomerbsg:
If you're asking this question.. wait..

the bugs that are there are easily worked around, but you have to search this thread and find the answers. I'm putting up with them because.. well.. i like this rom. Keep in mind though this is "cutting edge" here.. running a lot of Note 3 stuff on a Note 2, for the most part they work well, and the team has done a remarkable job thus far.

but again, if your asking.. just wait it out...

cheers

If you chose the agni kernel during installation, all you have to do is go into the agni control app.

Changing the governor is really straight forward.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] anaya1213:
Thanks, didn't know it was through the agni kernel.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] ganggreen777:
Did someone mention couldn't get into multi window apps (fc's) is there a way around it?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] cbrinnny:
In my case, since i didn't choose the agni kernel during installation, i just downloaded it and through the agni control app that comes with it you can set it up. Just tap the governor option and choose the one you want. Also with that app i upped the volume of the headset and speaker and it is plenty loud.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Daciple:
That's what I was questioning. Allot of the other bugs are from people that don't follow instructions. Say things don't work when dirty flashing. Besides settings bug & zerowake duplicate in build. This thing is pretty much running flawless!

Question about Polaris Office

I have been searching the forums here since I switched to version 2 this morning. I have been running on v1 since december, and it has been great. Was waiting for Polaris Office to be fixed, and the changelog said this was fixed, I thought. But I can't seem to find the app anywhere on the phone. Before it was in one of the folders, but it is no longer there. I even tried opening a pdf, and it gave me options, but there was no Polaris Office. Am I missing something here?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] cbrinnny:
I actually found it in the play store and installed it. Version 5.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] KeylanHalfdan:
Hmm, I can only find Polaris 4 and other things like Polaris Good and Polaris Link on the play store.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] turbo50t:
Glad those are the only bugs you are having, but others are having other bug issues for example, I followed the Op to the letter and no matter what I do my google mail will not sync. and it is not a problem with the mail server because it works with all the other Nebula versions. At least one other person has indicated this problem and I can reproduce this problem everytime I try to install this particular rom version. What I finally had to do in order to get Gmail to sync with this rom was to reinstall V1 and then dirty flash V2 on top of it and now it works. Don't know why, but it is happening.

By the way I used Philz Recovery as I always do and always had that one problem with Gmail everytime I flashed it per the OP. Never had that issue before. Now all is good with the exception of the bugs you mentioned. Open to any advise.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] anaya1213:
Excuse my ignorance, didn't know there were more bugs that I wasn't aware of.

the fix for gmail not syncing is to disable 2 step verification
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] turbo50t:
The problem with Gmail not syncing for me is that Play Store uses that same account and won't let me in either, but like I said I dirty flashed V2 over a clean install of V1 and now it works fine. It's wierd because I have never had any issues before with Gmail syncing and I have been on V1 since you posted it with no problems. I even went so far as to create a new Gmail account and did a clean reflash of V2 using the new account and it wouldn't sync. I'm stumped.

---------- Post added at 05:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:32 PM ----------

Nope, that was the first thing I tried when it wouldn't sync other than making sure sycn was on in Gmail and it still wouldn't sync.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] viper31573:
Sorry but worked for me. Not sure why it won't work for you.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Thumprxl:

Oh, I forgot to add, after a dirty flash it went away. :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] turbo50t:
No problem, I'm just trying to figure it out and find a fix for it. I installed V1 with just the stranslate fix and Minor fix and didn't have any other problems, but others did. So I understand what your saying. Why do some people have problems and others don't, I guess it's just one of those things that happen.

---------- Post added at 06:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:58 PM ----------

Hey viper31573, that did work. The first time I had the ROM installed before I turned off 2 step verification and it didn't work. I went back and did a clean install with 2 step turned off and it worked like a charm. Thanks for you help, I really wanted this ROM to work.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Tlingitsoldier:
The built in version doesn't work because they forgot to put the app in there. It's supposed to be addressed in the upcoming patch. I got around this by installing MW Manager.

My air command isn't working. Is the only fix subsequent dirty flashes until it works? Also, clicking the S Pen settings under settings-controls causes settings to quit. Is that a known issue?

Also, and unrelated, during start up after boot, email keeps quitting--also, I think it says exchange is causing errors, but not sure. I took some option related to exchange during the initial set up. At the present time, I don't use the standard email program, only gmail.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Thumprxl:
After the initial flash without taking spen out, enable air command, go ahead and do the other settings for spen as well. I won't work the first time out. Go back and dirty flash only wiping cache and dalvik. It should work then. Email failed to start on the initial flash also. After the dirty flash it worked too. I think most here agree deodexed works best. Good luck.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] larry_thagr81:
Have you even tried to duplicate the issues that people have pointed out as bugs? You were really quick to assume that allot of bugs are from people that don't follow instructions. Since we are assuming, I'm going to say that you haven't tried to duplicate the issues that people have pointed out because you are unaware that many of these issues have already been acknowledged by the developers and will be fixed in the first OTA.

My point is unless you are trying to offer a solution, then it's not fair for you to judge others.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Skilover:
I'll give it a go. I already did the deodexed version as it's too hard to work with odexed rom if you wish to edit or replace of of the system apk files; I'm glad to hear most people have good luck with this version. Thinking back, I believe I dirty flashed from the prior version of the rom; I have no idea if this is causing any problems or not, but other than what I've mentioned, the rom appears to work perfectly.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Thumprxl:
Yeah, I would at least clean install this one. I tried dirty flashing up from B1v2 but felt it's not that difficult to just start fresh. Other than a few issues that the devs are working on it's running smooth!

Guys

I have a constant reboot every few hours, I have done a clean installed, dirty flash and nothing helps, I have the latest MBaseband update, I605VRUEMJ9 and installing the rom with Philz loader, am I missing anything?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] shellie03:
I've been getting a few random reboots as well. Did a clean install too.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] sting5566:
Do you have any mods installed, they could be doing it to you.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Tlingitsoldier:
I seem to remember that Devil Kernel was required for Ditto Note 3 which was using the MJ5 baseband. And it was only required to make the wifi work. I don't think it's necessary for this rom. Or are you just a fan of Devil Kernel and want to get it running? I haven't bothered switching kernels except for AGNi that is offered in the aroma installer, so I'm not sure whether or not your case is isolated or common among others. I've been quite happy with AGNi.

I haven't been getting random reboots, but when I first boot up, if I don't leave it alone for about 1-2 minutes it will reboot on me. So I boot up, and don't touch the screen, don't unlock, or hit buttons. It's pretty strange, but at least it's manageable.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] cyberma007:
Thank for the respond, I dont have any mods in mine, all stock after the install, and for leaving the phone alone after the flash , i have done that, but even after a couple of days, it still has random reboots, it make no sense, I just redid the modem firmware again with windows odin, lets see how it goes.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] shellie03:
That's the same behavior I've experienced. It's after I boot up.

Have either of you tried switching kernels?

I might try a new kernel. I chose the stock kernel. If the ota update doesn't help that I will try the other kernel.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] cyberma007:
I have tried both stock kernel and the new Agni kernel, result is the same
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Tlingitsoldier:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] sting5566:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Curtis Craig:
If this has been covered then accept my apologies but I'm not digging the new on call screen, is there a way to get the old one back?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Tlingitsoldier:
I see it was mentioned in post #800 about the internet connection is unstable notification. It appears this is still happening, and even after unchecking all the boxes in the advanced wifi menu, I'm still getting this notification. It is also still using the voicemail icon with a 2 above it. I hadn't even thought about that being the wrong icon until just now. Figured I'd mention it while work is still being done. If it happens again I'll post a screen shot.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Skilover:
Just an observation: This version of the ROM is much more responsive and faster than any of the preceding versions--or anyone else's ROM for that matter. Also, better battery life, despite some over clocking using the handy dandy kernel control app from Agni. Thanks!!!!! :)
