When installing the Beta builds expect bugs

Install Instructions:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] TheBr0ken:
Support on this thread is for LiquidSmooth ROM related issues only.

While we do not mind helping, its getting impossible to sort through issues that are ROM related or not. Persistent non-ROM related issues are best suited for the Verizon Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting Section.

Below is a few things I would appreciate you list when you are having issues so we have as much information as possible when trying to help you with your problems.

Is this a Clean flash

Is this the stock kernel

What firmware revision are you on

What gapps package are you using

Have you had this issue on other ROMs

Do you have any apps that change/modify system preferences (Xposed, etc)

Do you have any task killers installed

If you are having app issues, are they running off of internal memory or extSdCard

This is great news for us Note 2 users. Thank you [MENTION=3668085]TheBr0ken[/MENTION]
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] gcounts:
Awesome thanks for this!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] bthartley:
Will try this for sure
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] bigmarv31:
Thanks downloading now
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] bthartley:
Files downloaded. Will try it tomorrow
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] glockman4519:
Quick question, root is built in correct? My Google backup downloads and installs my donation Super SU Chainfire app along with the free one. Should I uninstall these so as not to conflict with the systems pre-installed root?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] ganggreen777:
Thanks for sharing this
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] lilpeezy23:
SuperSU works better for me. I know for titanium backup to work properly it needs SuperSU. I have it installed without any issues
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] AceZ71:
Yes, the rom has superuser built in. You should be fine using Super SU if you prefer, just beware of when reporting issues/bugs, that this may be the culprit.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] glockman4519:
Thank you both for quick responses. I think you answered my question. I was concerned that when Google auto loaded all my apps including super SU that this would cause issues. I am just going to stick with the SU that comes with CyanogenMod thus eliminating any issues on down the line. Again, than you both.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] AceZ71:
I did find out if your coming from KitKat to Lollipop, in order for Titanium Backup to restore apps, SuperSU is needed
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] glockman4519:
I try to steer clear of Titanium Backup but I can see what you are saying.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] ganggreen777:
If you stay clear of tibu. .....what do you use...if anything
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] TheBr0ken:
New build is up with working camera. GPS is still not working right, picks up static locations, but will not track
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] ganggreen777:
If not tibu then what do you use?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] xenspidey:
I've always used rom toolbox for backup and restoring apps. I cannot say whether it would work for this rom though.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Steaknkegs:
I have tried unsuccessfully to get the GPS running. I am running the latest pa gapps for 5.0.x. Wiped several times and reflashed the rom, gapps, and the GPS fix. Flashed the GPS fix several times and rebooted countless times. I have the GPS Test app and nothing seems to be going on there. Does anyone have some advice? Thanks.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] viper31573:
Why when I download gpx fix am I not seeing it when I go into recovery to flash it? I'm downloading it to phone then moving to ext SD card.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] chachi:
Now have root/supersu su disappearing mins post reinstall/reboot.

There/ok shortly after redoing, tibk runs fine, wait a few mins and reload tibk, and su is gone.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] puritan007:
Yes. Make anandroid back up. Install touch wiz. In tw get GPS lock, leave GPS on, restore backup of liquid. Should sort it
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] onefast50:
Last time I had this issue I needed to flash a touch wiz rom and get the gps working. When wipe and install asop. Worked everything.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] viper31573:
Anyone?

---------- Post added at 08:19 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:47 PM ----------

Figured it out. When downloading to phone I was only getting an HTML file

Downloaded to desktop and got zip
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] droidx2.3.3:
Seems to be running good.

But I can't restore my apps with tibu. It just stays at 0%. It has root/su access. Not sure what's going on there.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DreamFX:
Got to download supersu from play store.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] droidx2.3.3:
That did it.

Thank you.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] puritan007:
Yeah tibu even gives a warning at first start up that it didn't allways work with the built in su
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] droidx2.3.3:
One more question.

Is there a way I can get rid of or at least move the Google search bar on the homescreen? It makes me have my weather widget too far down on the screen
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] plainbum:
What is the best baseband to run with this rom ND7 ?

Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DrunkUncas:
It's working extremely well on mine.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] glockman4519:
Im also using ND7

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] QBall45:
Since you're unable/willing to wait for official updates and decided to build your own (of which is cool with me) would you mind providing me with your changelog?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] chopt51:
I just repo synced. Didn't make any local changes. (I wasn't sure if I could share. If any problem I can take it down.)

Sent from my Galaxy Note ll
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] QBall45:
The only real problem posting a build is that it becomes impossible to sort out problems which we all know eventually show up. Courtesy would be to start your own "unofficial build" thread. Thus separating issues between unofficial builds and those that are official (albeit alpha stage yet).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] av8id:
Great ROM! Working very smooth for me, GPS working, and I do not have the phone issues reported here (12/30 build). Came from Beans/Alliance 26, using Philz recovery.

One issue tho.... When starting TiBu, root check fails, and I do have the latest SuperSu installed from play store. I went back to Philz and re-rooted thru that but was stuck in a bootloop when attempting to restart. Any help is appreciated in order to get TiBu working. Thanks guys!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] QBall45:
#1 which build are you running?

#2 switch to supersu. Update the binary as required. Tibu will now function properly.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] furrySatan:
Looks like a new build is up
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] av8id:
12/30 build, yes I'm running supersu, updated binary. TiBu can't verify root.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] pmsrefugee:
Is there a change log for the new build? Want to know if blue tooth playing is fixed. Mine sometimes wouldn't play except on airplane mode or sounded choppy.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] QBall45:
Give this kernel a shot. It fixed my Bluetooth issues. Calling works as does media playback.

I give up. Reverted to ND7 tw and got GPS, rebooted and still had, restored nandroid of 1230, no GPS with or without fix
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] bigmarv31:
New build is up 1-7-15 downloading now Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] xenspidey:
Don't feel too bad. There are a few of us that have "weird" GPS issues. I was on a ROM a year ago or so and only 2-3 of us had GPS issues. None of the experts could explain it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] andrewc513:
Having another go at this rom since lunch, about 10 hours now. Still stable just as the last build. Here's the new stuff I notice about the 1/7 build, starting from a clean flash:

1) Long pressing the quick toggles works now.

2) Data/cell signal is flawless, but for some reason the toggle & lock screen label says "Empty" instead of "Verizon".

3) Updating HOSTS file for built in ad blockier didn't force close System UI this go round.

4) Artifacts in Chrome seem to be gone.

5) I can't recall if the last build's kernel was on 3.0.64, but kernel inckuded is now on 3.0.101.

6) Battery is better. Still not normal, but now it's not gotta-restore-previous-rom bad.

7) GPS worked without that fix that's floating around.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] TheBr0ken:
Same kernel, just some updates. My build.prop edit didn't take so for now add ro.ril.force_eri_from_xml=true to the build prop to fix the Empty carrier label. I'll get it fixed on the next build
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] andrewc513:
Cool. Wicked work with the rom!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DreamFX:
GPS didn't work for me without the fix. If you could download GPS status from play store and verify you can get a lock I'd appreciate it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mrbobo1:
+1

gps fix did work though as usual

my bluetooth is almost better now, still get the occasional stutter but it's mostly solid now

battery saver mode is AMAZING, i set my phone down last night with that on at 95% and work up to 91% seven hours later! love that feature, I wish you could have it go into that mode based on profiles, I would love to have a "night" profile where it went into battery saver mode.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] bigmarv31:
Loving the rom so far only issues is the GPS getting a lock on the 1-7 build but it works after I flash the fix otherwise excellent work guys Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] andrewc513:
Weird.. I tried to do that and it wouldn't get a lock. But if I go into Maps, it can find me within about 20ft accuracy, which has been more than adequate for navigation. (Drove all over town this morning and it worked like a champ) I supposed I just didn't notice it wasn't getting a 100% lock on me because navigation still worked fine.

So, half-working without the GPS fix I guess?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DreamFX:
You prob have high accuracy on which is using the mobile network and/or wifi to pinpoint you. If you set to GPS device only this is where is goes haywire and loses where you are because it can't lock onto you.

I was actually hoping you would be right and it was fully fixed. But thanks for checking for me. I appreciate it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] andrewc513:
Yep, I always turn on high accuracy for navigation, then back to battery saving when done. I never use device-only.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] ganggreen777:
Hey brother did you use Shift LP

4.2 zip?

Just making sure I dl'd the correct one
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] QBall45:
That's correct.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] ganggreen777:
Thanks man

---------- Post added at 02:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:33 PM ----------

Also...I dl'd the 1.7 liquid rom that's correct too?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] glockman4519:
I am also using the Shift kernel this time around, just to see how it plays with this build and my i605. I also want to see if this helps with some of the little issues that were brought up already. I don't like to use alternate kernels unless I am getting significant improvement from stock kernel. So we well see. Thanks for the link Qball45.

Chance favors the prepared.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] chachi:
I had probs before with KK / CM and had to revert/relock/reupgrade, mighta been me :laugh:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mistermagic87:
Loving it - just flashed new build - 1/7/15.

Couple of issues to report and I wanted to see if anyone else is having issues with the phone proximity sensor working correctly when on a phone call?

I just tested it after a reboot - incoming call from my office landline worked fine, outgoing call - screen wouldn't turn off- incoming call from a co-worker's cell screen wouldn't turn off.

I just cleared cache and dalvik in recovery rebooting and will retest.

Seems to keep doing it - but it's random. Not doing it every time now.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] glockman4519:
Could someone tell me if screen shots are enabled in this rom and if so how to access that option? I have been through every crack and crevice in settings and can't find it. Thank you in advance.

Scratch that. I figured it out after Googling it. Power and volume down at same time. Thank you all anyways.

"Chance Favors the Prepared"
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DreamFX:
Down and power button at the same time.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] chachi:
And a reflash back to vramc3 and then clean wipe/flash to 1/07 and all good finally :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] QBall45:
For those testing out the 1/7 build + Shift kernel please let us know what you think.

It's working great for me other than one tiny volume hiccup in MX Player. When I stop a movie then restart it the volume jumps up somewhere near max. While this is annoying it's no deal breaker for me. I'm just happy to have my Bluetooth functionality back to more or less normal.

Happy flashing!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] kerndog:
GPS

I just moved from the 12/30 to the 1/7 build.

Most everything seems OK to me, but still having issues with the GPS.

I have tried flashing and re-flashing the fix from earlier in this thread and no deal.

I use Waze every day and can't get it to work. Tried google maps too, still no GPS lock.

Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Neuman.Tim:
Flawless for me at the moment. Battery on smartass 2 and power save is pretty decent, no audio issues to report, pretty happy with it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] glockman4519:
I am using Shift Kernel and it is working great. Bluetooth and all. I'm so glad this was brought to light for is as I can now use my OTG And couldn't with Agni. I love this build. I just hope that eventually liquid will have it's usual level of customizations in this rom. I really hope that they will incorporate the theme engine from Kitkat into this rom as well. But for now, I'm smiling.......

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mistermagic87:
Are you experiencing the proximity sensor screen on call issue I posted above? I'm Just curious if I'm the only one. Or if it's a known issue.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Endios:
Absolutely fantastic, only minor issue.

I've had the problem before, not really sure what could be causing it. But for some reason, my phone loses sound when I'm listening to music, doesn't matter what player, as soon as the screen goes off so does the sound. It's not pausing, its muting. But only through the regular headphone jack. Listening through the internal, this doesn't happen,.. Could it be the viper v4 audio using max driver be the culprit.. I just kinda thought that, maybe I'll try, it just felt like a power saving issue since screen off is the only trigger, as soon as screen comes on, so does the sound. Any help would be appreciated, thanks in advance, and keep up the awesome work.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Jstevenett:
I'm experiencing this too. Did you find a fix?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DreamFX:
Have disable Google voice ok Google command in your launcher and google settings and then this will go away.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] griz1982:
So I noticed that GMD SPen control does not work in LS 4.0 Lollipop. Is it no longer needed?

How do I get rid of the mouse pointer?

Also is HaxSync still required for syncing Facebook contacts with phone contacts?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] michigan66:
Gmd isn't updated For lollipop yet. Facebook I have no idea. I don't sync it.

Would somebody please pair up a bluetooth mouse and tell me how the buttons behave? I would like to know what happens when you press the right click, left click and center wheel button?

Thank you
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] andrewc513:
I grabbed a USB adapter and hooked up my Logitech MX518 real quick. Left/right/middle clicks all seem to just act as a normal tap. Scroll button works for scrolling through homescreens, app drawer, webpages, etc.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mikebruce:
First off, amazing alpha ROM. Far more worked than didn't:

Not working stuff:

Data cannot automatically switch between roaming /3g/4G/LTE. I had to manually toggle while traveling around.

Google voice calling worked a few times but mostly didn't

Bad battery drain , seems to be android system or gapps but either way it was not fixable

Bluetooth buggy and mostly didn't work, audio sounds less full than stock

Data speeds quite low compared to stock touchwiz for whatever reason.

The good stuff was the ROM was quite stable and extremely fast. Most features worked!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DrunkUncas:
GPS works with the patch, compass works after a couple of reboots.

Still getting weird behavior on Chrome, but Maxthon browser works fine.

Battery life has been pretty impressive on the last couple of builds. I haven't had Android OS eat my battery in weeks.

Clean, stock kernel, ND7
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] note2root:
Is there a kernel I can flash for L's 4.0 on my note 2 sgh-i317m?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DreamFX:
Flash shift kernel for a much better experience.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Crash*N*Burn:
First off great ROM, especially for an alpha.

1. Various video files and streaming video issues, including netflix not working.

2. The My Verizon app works on WiFi but not on mobile network.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Endios:
Thanks for the quick response. I recently went to the latest build and used only the stock launcher instead of google now, so I don't have any "OK google" set at all now.

And it works flawlessly. I'll mess with the viper audio setting's today for the final verdict. But I think that did the trick. Thanks again.

I'm trying to flash this and it fails telling me that my device is t0lteatt. I'm assuming that is AT&T. I assure you I'm on verizon with the i605 (currently running Slim 4.4.4). Why would it error out like that? I'm using the latest TWRP. Would CWM change that?
