Flashlight broken? Can't get to work with shift kernel installed?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DreamFX:
Mine is working fine. Just turned on and off several times. Make sure you're using shift 5.4.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] bigmike35:
using his newest, version says 3.0.31-Shift-LP-5.1

I stand corrected guess his link doesn't go to the newest, but google is your friend. sorry, will flash and test!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DreamFX:
That's so weird. I'm using latest slim gapps, newest pac 3-3-15, newest twrp, and newest shift. I don't know why your torch wouldn't work. I know you keep having issues. Which stinks. Make sure the md5 match the rom. Other than clearing caches or fresh flashing not sure what else to suggest as its not doing for me. Anyone else?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] bigmike35:
I updated above, I google'd shift kernel and found his whole layout not just shift 5.1 (which i need to click his name and look around through his folders), I see shift 5.4 now and downloading. Will wipe davlik/cache and retry. Thanks!

I might just start fresh with a clean build anyways!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DreamFX:
Let me know buddy. Everything is truly amazing for me. Hoping you can get same experience soon.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] bigmike35:
So update, downloaded newest rom, gapps and shift 5.4 kernel. Still running into using stock kernel to obtain root and update supersu before flashing shift kernel. Flash light works. Service was wonky but fixed and no problem since. I did notice speaker breaks when enabling boeffla audio (in stweaks; can adjust volume levels and equalizer but can't enable boeffla), you can set it, but once you reboot your phone the speaker doesn't work, have to use speaker phone to hear someone. Once you turn it off (in stweaks) and reboot speaker works again. But no complaints as that could be kernel/app related and not rom.

Is anyone able to get netflix to work? I thought I saw a work around somewhere, not a big deal really just wondering. It opens but just sits there with the circle loading.

I've tried both versions and couldn't get it to get past the Samsung logo on bootup. I will have to try on a couple other different roms though as I only tried it on Cyanide.

Updated:

I tried with Pacman and straight CM12.1 and could not get past Samsung boot logo on boot up. I so much wanted this to work.

I haven't tried yet. Can you please report your findings to him? I'd love for him to get it working.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] glockman4519:
Yes, as soon as i have a chance to do this right. I want good logs to give him as well and I am up to my butt in meetings today at work. I'm going to try to get out after lunch today and will be able to do it then. Or even search My TWRP for any logs to send.

Same issue here using boefella. I let the dev know. This isn't a pacman issue.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] glockman4519:
Just wanted to confirm that Agni's 4x12 version of their latest build is working perfectly with this build (latest). This is great. We now have 2 working kernels for this phone.. I love having options.

Sadly though, I will not be able to check data functions and will only be able to confirm on Wi-Fi as I have made the move from Verizon to Cricket and have moved to my One Plus one as my daily driver. I may go back or even keep both accounts for testing but right now all I can afford is the one account. So far Cricket is doing great.

"Chance Favors the Prepared"
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DreamFX:
Thanks for heads up. I will try agni shortly. I will be making jump to att in August or September. I will miss my vzw friends. But lots of them have already moved on too other phones so my time is coming soon to follow suit.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] glockman4519:
I'm going to hang on to my note 2 though. I tried my cricket SIM in it and it works great so i may still be able to test data with it, only it will be on cricket and not Verizon.

Going to hate to see you go.

Glockman....are you talking about your note 2 or another phone? If so what carrier.... I'd like options other than Verizon.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] glockman4519:
Yes. I was referring to my Note 2 i605 Verizon edition. I don't want to clutter up this thread with none specific information, but I am still using the i605 but am testing with the sim from my One Plus one. That sim is a Cricket wireless sim. I can PM you with more information on Cricket wireless. Just let me know.

Can't get it to run with shift, system ui force closes. Just fyi
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DreamFX:
He needs to update his kernel to run on newer roms. I believe he is doing just that soon.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
Right now shift wont work on new cm based roms. Cm has added new permissions (in kernel ramdisk) for themes. Shift kernel has been updated but wont be released till cyanide (bretts custom rom) has been updated. For now agni will still work since it only adds to the current kernels ramdisk instead of replacing it like most custom kernels do.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
For those who have not seen yet the new shift kernel is out. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=60965056
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] bigmike35:
Installed new rom, (clean wipe) and everything seems to be running nicely so far. One problem I do encounter, well not a problem really, but when I reboot, I get no service and also the no sim card - emergency calls only sign. I have to switch my apn to LTE or LTE+CMDA to get service back every time, and I feel I lose service with WiFi switch on/off. I installed latest Shift kernel and still experience these issues. Also, which is kernel related I believe haven't had time to try it on a new rom (this weekend) when enabling boeffla sound and reboot, I lose the sound when talking to someone, the earpiece sound does not work. You have to turn it off and reboot and then it works again, so really, before a reboot you need to disable it then re-enable it after reboot. Overall everything seems to be running fine to me. Thanks for the rom.

Also, bluetooth, works fine with my headset like no skips but when i use it in my car it skips/pauses everything 10-15s, anyone else experiencing this? It seems to be a CM/source issue as it has been doing it for awhile now. Music or youtube
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
The phone volume/no sound issue is directly related to boeffla but does not affect everyone.

Thank heavens man. I am having a heck of a time with gapps lately and force closing/system UI failures from gapps.

"Chance Favors the Prepared"
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
Question. Does the fc happen right at boot or after you sign into google? If it is after sign in then the issue is not the gapps ypu flash but google broken updates.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] glockman4519:
It always happens right after it signs into Google which made me realize it was the gapps causing it.

I just loaded Team UB on my Nexus 10 and used the pa gapps from the link and finally got that ROM loaded and had no issues loading and updating my Google apps like Google Plus. I have been getting reboots when trying to update those apps before now. It's awesome. I just hope they keep updating them this time. So we, who use them, should make a donation. Hell, I never even gave it a thought before, but they too have to be put together by somebody and they should be rewarded for their work.

Just my opinion though.

"Chance Favors the Prepared"
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DreamFX:
Not sure about the LTE issue. Sometimes I have the issue on all LP roms. Hit or miss. But the bluetooth with shift has been flawless. I just drove back and forth from my brothers house. Total round trip about an hour. Spotify playing through bluetooth in my car was flawless without skipping one single beat. As with the nature of phones, cars, and bluetooth it might be one of those things we never get to the bottom of. Your car for whatever reason might hate pacman and bluetooth while others it works perfectly. But this sometimes crops up on stock roms. Bluetooth to this day hasn't been perfected universally.

Glad you enjoy the rom overall. :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DreamFX:
Agree totally. I swear ever since PA GApps fell off the scene no matter what package I try there is some little issue somewhere.

Battery bar should be included glockman4519 ;)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] glockman4519:
You are the man... And you know me too well. lol.. Been doing a lot of testing with all my other devices I'm just now making back to the good old note 2. Thank you very much for this build.

"Chance Favors the Prepared"
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] glockman4519:
The battery bar is cool as all get out. It replaced the battery icon and is non colorable, a mix between red and orange right now at about 35%, but I like it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DreamFX:
Nice. Never was a fan of battery bar myself. But glad you like it. Probably getting a Nexus 6 on 7/16 ish.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] glockman4519:
That's cool. I love my Nexus 6. It's kind of a toss up between the Nexus 6 and my One Plus though. I just love that no matter what update I get from where, I don't have to be worried about getting my boot loader locked down.

As far as my Nexus running in Verizon, it works great. Always have full bars, call quality is superb and the 5.9 inch screen rocks.

The One Plus is a more refined fell and look with basically the same hardware features except for the camera and I would call the One Plus the winner there

Let me know when you get your nexus 6 and how you like it once in hand.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DreamFX:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] glockman4519:
Thank you again for posting that fix for the dreaded messaging issue on AOSP/CM roms. I lost my Wip build when I changed over to my Nexus 6 and tonight Is going to do some testing with a newish touchwiz rom on my Note 2 and wanted to make sure I could get back to this rom again when finished, only to find that I had inadvertantly deleted it. A quick search through the CM12 unofficial thread and I found the link to your thread and I am back in business once again.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DreamFX:
Glad it saved your butt more than once as well.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DreamFX:
What newish TW rom are you referring too? I haven't seen anything released in a long time?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] glockman4519:
The "RD3" that was updated a couple months ago. Since I'm using the Nexus 6 I thought I would try out some of the roms for this device that were updated and see how they run.

I'm finding a slight sluggishness to it so far. I'm going to let it sit for a while and let it settle in and see if that changes anything, if not, back to Pac.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DreamFX:
Nexus 6 is on Route. I probably won't be building anymore for Note 2. It was a fine ride.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] glockman4519:
That's sucks. But I understand. Are you going to be doing any builds for the Shamu? I would be willing to do testing for you.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DreamFX:
I doubt it. Maybe down the road. We will see. Looks like pacman is officially avaliable for nexus 6.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
Almost every custom is made for nexus devices first then support for other devices are added. You might have to learn more about code and make your own.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] glockman4519:
That's more of what I was getting at. Only you said it way better, lol..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] glockman4519:
It seems that we are slowly losing devs for this device. I may have to part with my beloved Not 2 after all if trends keep going this way.

I mean, it still functions great but I love flashing and testing new roms. I, like you, got the Nexus 6 for just this reason. And a couple other reasons... lol.

Hope you enjoying your as much as I am mine. See you around in the posts.

PAC has been on the slower end with features than other lollipop rom devs. Which is unfortunate because I always loved it. Thanks for posting a build. I don't use my note 2 anymore I might sell it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] chopt51:
New build is good. Thank you.

Can you check if yours has the navigation bar settings? I don't know why mine was missing. Had to edit the build.prop to get this.. Not sure if the Shift kernel is the problem or not.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DreamFX:
I don't use it. But just checked and it's missing. I'll add to system prop with all future builds so it will be there. Thanks for reporting. ?

I'll double check the GPS. I haven't actually flashed that new build myself yet. Thanks for testing. The empty signal issue fixed?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DreamFX:
Keyboard issue will probably be sometime before fixed. Not sure where to even begin. Not a show stopper at least. GPS not working out the box bothers me. It's a cm Github issue. Sbrissen needs to fix it.I have total faith he will eventually. All I did was attempt to bandaid using GPS fix zip.

Video files

Is Pac-man able to play mp4 video files?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] glockman4519:
As far as being able to play mp4 videos, I recorded a video this morning with this rom and built in camera and was able to play the video back. It was 150 plus mgb in size. No jumping, skipping or any other issues. Was this what you were referring to?

Very nice, DreamFX... I love Pac-Man
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DreamFX:
Yes it does. The fast forward / rewind doesn't work right with factory video player so I use VLC and it's flawless.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DreamFX:
Glad you like it. I like PAC-man the best. It provides the best of all roms.

There will be hopefully some CM fixes coming eventually for the GPS and video issues. I tried using other githubs to fix they issues and ran into all kinds of build issues so I'm going to stick with Official CM/PAC repos for my unofficial build for now lol.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Crash*N*Burn:
Sadly.....

Just installed and tested this ROM, and sadly it does not play my mp4 files. It can play mp4 files that are created by the phone, but it will not play mp4 files generated by video editing software or conversion software like Cyberlink Media Expresso with an output for Samsung Note 2. I know these files will play on my Notes 2 under 4.1, 4.3 and 4.4. Also, I just tried to play a few video files that are in 3gp format and they will also not play but did under pervious 4.x version of Android.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DreamFX:
I just tried as well and it plays all those formats. Just use VLC Player from the play store.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Crash*N*Burn:
Was the first thing I did once the ROM was available. It plays the audio track but not the video.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DreamFX:
Weird. It doesn't like how they are encoded i guess. Weird encoding/lollipop issue. We don't have a Lollipop TW build to try but I be curious to see if it's an AOSP issue or Lollipop compatibility issue.

If I come up with a suggestion to get them to play i will let you know. I think if it was me I'd try different settings in the encoding software to see if that helps get them work in Lollipop.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] glockman4519:
I switched over to VLC video player myself about a week ago and really like it. That is what I'm using to play video on this rom without issues.

Yeah it must be an encoding/decoding issue with lollipop, like I said its works on all 4.X version of Android. I Did some looking around in play store and found that HD Video Player for Android (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=media.video.hdplayer.videoplayer&hl=en) will allow me to play the files in question. And like I said it does work on the 12/30 build of the Liquid Smooth ROM, so something changed.....

As a side note... My stock 5.0.2 ROM Nexus 7 (2012) can play the files with the Photo app, no 3rd party app needed.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] onefast50:
All good so far. I did have to flash the GPS fix bit so far so good.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] glockman4519:
I tell you what, the other lollipop builds are really cool and well done roms but so far I haven't found an improvement over this one. I like the battery bar, and the other small but important features that this rom gives. And with Shift kernel, this rom is plenty fast for me as well. Thank you DreamFx for bringing lollipop PacMan to us. So far no issues that I can find.

"Chance Favors the Prepared"
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DreamFX:
I agree with you and it will only get better. Was having lots of issues building with shift included in it. Might make a new build within the next couple days. Hasn't been many changes. But you're welcome.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] glockman4519:
I tried that too and I know the issues you speak of. I had better luck with Liquid and made my own personal ROM.

I also merged shift with Vanir but had even worse issues. Liquid responds very well to incorporating Shift kernel right into the rom

I will be looking forward to any updates. But take your time because so far, so good.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] glockman4519:
Sorry to hear that Chopt51. I hope that doesn't mean we are losing you as a dev for our device as even the lose of one dev is devastating.

I too got a new phone (the One Plus One) but plan on keeping this one rocking for a backup and testing ROM builds.

Good luck and thank you so much for Dirty Unicorn, it was my favorite KitKat rom by far.

Thank you for the update (Dreamfx). I will see if there is anything not playing right and let you know, although I highly doubt it.

Just wanted to post that I am testing the xposed for lollipop installer so if I encounter any issues with your rom, I will not post the issue as it could be the Xposed installer or the module causing it. So far though super smooth.

It's nice to have my Youtube add remove back, I really missed it with Lollipop.
