There is a disable adblock zip in the addons section in the Op. Maybe flash that and see if that helps your issue at all?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Azrael_Solanine:
Hello again, I've encountered another issue, I can not get my WiFi to connect. It just sits at obtaining IP address. I've used the latest twrp to install, and I'm completely stock as far as this ROM goes. Haven't done any tweaking or anything. I've done a quick search ITT for "WiFi issues" but haven't seen a fix. Thanks again.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] p_razzi:
Will it connect to any Wi-Fi router at all? If it's yours, try rebooting the router itself.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Larkstarr:
The server is probably blocked in the hosts file. You can download a hosts editor and remove the specific address from the host file if this is the case.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] ascian:
Just did a fresh install of v16 per instructions and am having 2 issues.

1. Data connectivity is awful. Previous versions s and other roms had no issues, this is bad across the board. Signal is minimal, data fluctuates from 3g to lte as I sit in one place. This has been the case for a couple versions now and I have tried flashing the Att mk6 modem to no change.

2. Music cuts out when the screen is off. Power amp and local music as well as streaming services like Pandora or Spotify.

Really opening the floor for direction. Could this be a kernel issue for both or a clock down issue for #2? Appreciate any input.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] martyh1:
I'd like to know if anyone gets anywhere with this. I looked in the system/etc/hosts file but couldn't find an address that might be for meetup.com photos. I inspected a photo on meetup.com (from a desktop) and it uses photos2.meetupstatic.com. Maybe the hosts file isn't the problem?

I tried going to meetup.com in chrome for android, and it works fine (all pics show up).
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] lebertian:
That did it! Thanks man!

So for whoever is interested, I can confirm that flashing that "Disable Adblock" zip fixes the issue for images not show, at least for Amazon's app and website.

Not sure about meetup since I don't use it, but I would assume it would work as well.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] cyrano821:
Had same problem. Thanks! By any chance was opening web pages always go to a black screen unless you refreshed?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] lebertian:
Well in my case websites seemed to work mostly fine, except Amazon. Another thing that used to happen was that Google's sponsored Links wouldn't work, but after flashing that zip that's zlie=
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] adamcooks:
Ever see this?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Senyaka:
Got to say that is a first.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] p_razzi:
Nor me. Have you messed with the language settings at all? I would think it's not able to find the string resources.

While we're focused on the global menu, is it possible to add a reboot to recovery menu item?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] adamcooks:
I think my phone is slowly going senile.

So last week the spontaneous partial factory reset and now this.

I have not changed anything since I flashed 16 a few days ago. It has been flawless since installation. I pressed the button marked error in the normal reboot spot and it rebooted fine. Also I the settings icon was not my app drawer nor could I access from the menu button the home screen.

After the reboot it's fine, although I did just notice while taking a screenshot that my unlock handle returned stock from a custom pic.

It's under slim shortcuts. Settings - navigation - global menu - add - custom app - slim shortcuts
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Senyaka:
Whoa bro... sounds like your phone is posessed. Hahaha
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] martyh1:
Can confirm that flashing the disable ad block zip fixes the issue for the Meetup android app also (allows photos to display).
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] drarkanex:
First of all, excellent ROM. It is working well on my vzw i605 running thru straight talk. APN is already set up and have a stable h+ data. But my question of anyone can answer is data seems slower than running the vzw alliancerom. I'm wonderingbif flashing the att modem will correct this. Has anyone ever done something like this? O have flashed an att modem to this phone before but I didn't have a proper rom loaded so i flashed the vzw modem and everything was normal again. Are there any tricks or something I've overlooked? I do have a data connection and I do have a decent signal now. Thanks!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] adgj533:
One question, I'm still using the same modems my phone came with. Will updating it give better data speeds and connection.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] ShavedCivic187:
Love the ROM but can't seem to get a GPS fix. Any help? Thanx
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] pr0cl1v1ty:
gps is also messing up for me, and my bluetooth is constantly crashing during streaming music to my car headunit
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] drarkanex:
For the GPS and bluetooth not working, make sure you are installing to a clean area. Anything left over from your last ROM might be carrying over. Also wouldn't hurt to reflash radio.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] cyrano821:
I had that Bluetooth problem as well. Actually mine couldn't even start. Ended up doing a clean install again, problem didn't arise again. Might be rare bug
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] pr0cl1v1ty:
It was 100% a clean install completely deleted all both phone and sd card, have no updated radio. Any recommendations for my radio update?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Azrael_Solanine:
Sorry for taking so long to respond been slammed by work. It won't connect to any WiFi. I've tried 5 different ones, and it just sits on "obtaining IP address" and never connects. I flashed a different ROM last night and it connected just fine. Reflashed this one with a full wipe and same problem.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] cyrano821:
Are there any roms that do work? Could be hardware issue as well.

Sucks when can't find out why. Davlik and cache wiped after clean install?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Leogp:
I am also having troubles with my GPS signal. It takes ages to find where I am. Dont heard of any fixes until this day.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] pr0cl1v1ty:
Nope it's defiantly this rom only, I've been on dozens of roms and this is the only one that does this. It usually takes about 5-10mins before a "bluetooth exchange service" error.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] vmatt:

V17 flashed with newest gapps and everything's running fine over here.

I'm seeing an automatic system update menu in the About Phone (?) menu. Was that there before?

EDIT

I lost root and had to reflash SuperSU. Also, for some reason LTE doesn't work anymore. The LTE option does not appreak in the "preffered network type" menu I'll have to restore my backup if I can't find a way to make it work.

EDIT2

Everything is fixed now. Could have been an issue with my service provider.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] willl03:
You can toggle LTE by adding and using the QS tile

To get root with the built in superuser, set root to apps and adb in dev options

The system update in about phone was always there, I think it's the stock AOSP Google OTA notifier that does not affect us

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Archeob:
For some reason, my phone failed to connect to LTE for a few hours this morning, on either V17 or V16 (I went back). Everything seems to be fixed now.

Re-installed V17 and everything works great.

Thanks!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Larkstarr:
I've got the itch to explore some new ROMs again, and I've been following this particular one like a Hawk (since beanstalk!) - I'll be flashing v17 shortly!

Does anyone know if the Vine/Instagram/Snapchat video recording issue has been looked at / solved yet? I'm a pretty big fan of social media, I'd very much like these things to be working if at all possible. Though I guess I'll be finding out first-hand pretty soon too.. :P
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] lebertian:
Well, I can't say about those specific apps since I don't use them, but I know that the check deposit issue in the Bank of America still doesn't work (the camera freezes when taking the picture), and I believe this issue and the ones in the apps you mention are related...

But hey, there's really only one way of finding out right? ;P
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Larkstarr:
Is there any explanation for it? I'm quite surprised such an impressive array of devs on multiple roms, even CM, haven't figured out what's up with that, considering the lengthy amount of time that the issue has been around. I've been trying to search the issue on here and on google, but I've been focusing on looking for issues related to Vine and etc, not BoA, which may have pointed me in the wrong direction.

Edit: here's what happens when I try, see attachment.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] lebertian:
Well I wonder the same sometimes, so I guess it must be something really difficult to fix... I have no idea what the cause is, but it was happening with CM and now with Slim, so probably it's something deeper in AOSP. I believe reading a while ago it was related with Samsung not providing the necessary drivers or something like that...

Anyways I'm still hopeful that one day a fix will come!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Larkstarr:
Is it not strange though that it works in previous AOSP versions of CM and others like beanstalk? You can see the video working and capturing stuff as vine tries to initialize, but then it just boots you back to the main screen with that error message. It's really one of the only reasons I'm still on cm10.1, even 10.2 has the issue.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] lebertian:
Yeah indeed it is weird, but I believe the issue with BoA already happened with Beanstalk, so they might be different issues after all (but still closely related since they involve the camera being used by third party apps). Anyways, for me this isn't enough to hold me back, I'm always craving for the latest lol. Luckily I can borrow my GF's phone when I need to make deposits (which is always a funny moment since she has an iPhone and gives me that "oh you can't make deposits with your awesome Android much better than my iPhone" look lol)

android.process.media has stopped keeps popping up :( what data do I need to clear?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Senyaka:
Go to settings. Apps. Find media storage. Clear data. Reboot. If you don't see any images in your gallery, wait a few minutes. If you still don't see anything after a little more time, reboot again. This has happened to me on a few different Roms.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] apollo361:

Halo Issue?

Hello there! Does anyone have any advice on how to get Halo working? I have it enabled in it's settings, but for the life of me I cannot get it to show up at all. Is there something special that I forgot to do? Thanks!

***EDIT*** I figured it out; all I had to do was slide down the notification bar and accidentally hit some random icon that looked nothing like halo-related stuff, and it started. XD
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] waqar.qu:
Size of icons and notification bar from ORIGINAL SLIMKAT

Hey guys, what I loved about slimkat before using this w03 version was the clean look and how everything was small or minimal in the notifcation bar. The icons in the notification bar with w03 slimkat are larger. Does anyone know a workaround or is there something that I'm missing? I went through the settings in hope to find something but perhaps I missed something. Perhaps there's an xposed module for this? Much appreciated.

Cheers

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] PRBajista:
Try clearing data and cache on the app. If that doesnt work uninstall it and reinstall it via the playstore. If you have it as a system app, uninstall it via a root browser in system/app and reinstall it via playstore. Loading a TB backup of it with the data can sometimes cause hiccups.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] willl03:
Peek no, I prefer AcDisplay on the play store at every level

Without a doubt I'll merge Hover when source is released, it will replace Halo

Double tap to wake is a kernel thing, I won't get into that as I build for many devices. Double tap to sleep is already in

Toggle airplane mode off. Wait about 30 seconds. The turn it back on. Wait about 30 seconds again. Then reboot the phone.

The android os bug has followed me from phone to phone whenever I run a cm based rom. It's irritating but not a huge deal as long as you notice it right away.
