I've been holding out also. I can't upgrade without losing unlimited data unless I buy the phone outright. Maybe when 5 comes out the refurbished 4 will come down in price. 400-700 bucks for a phone is insane. I guess the 4 can be rooted now too. I have to have hotspot with unlimited. I live in the country and internet service is about nill. I have Hughesnet but 4G LTE is way faster.

So far seems faster. Connects data without toggling between LTE and CDMA... But I notice that it only connects to GSM/WCDM/LTE. Got data so no biggie I guess

Hello All,

Just updated to the newest build clean with latest GAPPS from Cyanide Central.

Still having same issue with LTE toggling but now also have a persistent notification saying "Unknown Issue with Google Play Services - Requested by Google Play Music". My Play Music app is directly from the Play Store.

Did you do a clean install or dirty? If dirty, I would suggest wiping the cache and see if that helps. I was using v15.6 and did a dirty install with the latest version plus shift kernel v5.7. Didn't wipe anything. So far so good, haven't had issues so far. Only thing I've noticed but not an issue for me. On the lockscreen, the notification shows as no SIM card mounted. Never had that message before. I only use my Note II as Wi-Fi only so it doesn't use a SIM card at all.

Just something I've noticed at least on my phone is the preferred network type labels are off. Click on LTE and it lists one of the other labels.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] toskabab:
So updated the new build and kernel. Everything is working great. Almost. I can't seem to find the cyanide black option in settings anymore. Am I going blind or is it no longer there?

Also, I've been getting this incessant "Message not sent" notification that won't go away. I don't have any outbound texts which failed or are waiting to be sent. When I remove the notification it just comes right back and won't go away unless i delete all my conversations. Anyone know what may be causing this? I know it's not the ROM because I have gotten similar notifications on prior ROMs as well.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] onefast50:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mschiska:
From time to time I get this delivery error as well. I use stock messenger, but also downloaded handcent. I don't use handcent for messaging, but only for removing message not sent notifications. In handcent there's an option to view message delivery reports. The messages that are causing the notification will show up and all you have to do is clear them, and problem solved. This way you don't have to delete conversations. Easy work around for me until there's a fix. This happens alot on other cm/aosp roms as well.

HELP

I have been having this issue too and I flash everytime a new build comes out. hoping it will correct it. could you please tell me how to do a log so maybe this can get sorted out. I did notice he said he put in a friends SIM (Cricket) thats ATT which is what I have. could that be an issue. To be clear when I touch the little phone icon to end the call the words hanging up appear at top of dialer, and the phone icon disappears. but the call does not end until I hold power and hit reboot. the phone reboots and all is good until I try to end call again. any input would be appreciated.

FYI - I think this most recent build has issues with Google Play Services and SD Card mounting in addition to LTE mode selection.

I installed the previous release and the only issue I have is LTE toggling. I've tried multiple GAPPS versions to confirm this.

Everything in this build of the rom is awesome. Except... the LTE selection/dropping is still very persistent and also now the weather wont display on the lock screen or in the pulldown status bar. I tried going to the weather control settings but they crash when i try to press on General cLock Weather and on DeskClock Weather Display. Just thought i'd report my findings! Thanks again.

First want to say I love CynaideL! Had a strange issue pop up with LTE about 4 days ago. I cannot for the life of me get LTE unless I set my mode to LTE Only. This gives me LTE but no text/phone capabilities. Tried loading other 5.x roms but the issue follows. Ordered a new sim card coming tomorrow.

Anyone else having this problem after running r8 or is this a non-cyanide related issue? Any ideas on a fix?

Could it be possible Verizon just throttled me down to 3g without telling me? I do use a ton of data on my "unlimited" plan.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] rogersb11:
No it's the Sammy hardware from cm defaulting it to 3g. I need to rework it but just time consuming. I use the lte tile to toggle after a reboot without issue and mine is set to auto mode, not lte only

Lost Root

This is an awesome rom but it seemed to start slowing down for some reason and no matter what I did I couldnt get GPS to work even after flashing the fix zip. So I reverted back to Wilson's 12.1 and seemed to have lost root. I'm assuming it was because of coming from this rom where it used SuperSU instead of Lollipop's default. How might I fix this and reacquire root access easily? Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] savaytse66:
I've been having problems with mobile data recently, but I was also noticing it on Saber 5.1. Is this a known CM issue? I've always had a strong LTE signal, so something is definitely different.

Today, I never got an LTE or 3G signal, only wifi.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] toskabab:
This is a 5.xx issue. I've tried 3 different roms, both cm and aosp based, and I came across the same problem with LTE. If you switch to 3g it works fine, just slow as hell when you're used to 4g. I think this depends a lot on location though because a lot of people swear up and down that they have no issues so I guess YMMV.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] savaytse66:
Well, I decided to dig into the APN settings (Access Point Names under Mobile Networks), and I saw that Verizon Internet (VZWINTERNET) is chosen, but when I go into those settings, most of the values are not set, like the MMSC, MMS port, and the MCC and MNC are set incorrectly, at least according to some of the settings I've seen. However, when I try to manually change them, the access point disappears completely from the list, and I cannot choose anything. Odd.

Maybe this is a known issue though, so if it is, I apologise. I've never had to mess around with these settings before since I've always got strong LTE out of the box.

Other than this, I love the ROM. Since adding *alarm* to the wakelock blocker, I have amazing battery life, and everything else is very smooth.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] toskabab:
Yeah someone will fix it eventually. Glad you get good battery life. But doesn't prevent the alarm from going off? I'd be shot if I didn't wake up on time to get to work in the morning.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] savaytse66:
Not sure about the alarm. I has lots of wakelocks for different apps showing *alarm*, so I'm not sure it's necessarily related to the clock alarm, so to speak. All I know is that I only lost 3.1%/hr today according to BBS.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Mace68:
This sounds like an awesome ROM. I really want to try it. Just one thing, do voice commands over Bluetooth work on this ROM? I haven't found a lollipop room that does yet.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] momule:
Or just go into mobile networks and switch from LTE CDMA & LTE, To just LTE for a second and then back to CDMA and LTE and it seems to lock and retain the signal.

The "no signal" issue after reboot and at random times (usually in low signal areas), is driving me nuts to the point that I might go back to KK.

I found this. Scroll down to the section "Guide to FIX Mobile DATA on CM12 Latest build for Note 2".

However, I'm nervous to try. Does anyone think it would apply or hurt our devices?

Many thanks for this latest build...it's great to have a working version of Lollipop on the venerable Note 2. Also really happy to have the Stagefright vulnerability patch included, since the chance of Verizon actually fixing it on this device is zero.

Also managed to get device encryption working after going through a few gyrations of flashing back to stock, encrypting, re-rooting and upgrading.

I'm also seeing the LTE / network dropoff issues, but it seems manageable so far. One thing I did that helps identify when it drops off is to use the CM Status Bar option to change the "Fully Conected" network icon color to bright green, and the "Normal" icon color to red.

LTE Fix

First let me say this ROM seems to make the Note 2 worthy of using until I see something come out that I am willing to upgrade to. I had gotten 2 faulty LG G4s and decided to go back to the Note 2 and this ROM.

Now on to the LTE fix, I know a lot of people have been having issues where the phone does not automatically go in to LTE. I have done some testing, but I warn you all that I only have about a day of testing under my belt and that this has worked on Verizon. If you are using a Verizon Note 2 on another network I cannot say that it will do anything. I noticed in the APN settings we seem to have a useless APN that as far as I can tell is fighting with the VZWINTERNET APN. The last APN in the settings is the one title Verizon with subtext or APN titled Internet. I have found this APN is useless and I have removed it on every 5.1.1 ROM that I have tried and have done the same here. Since removing this I have not had to toggle LTE once the phone has automatically switched between 3G and LTE every time it should be. It would appear that this APN has settings and is needed to send MMS, but as I have discovered it is not and I can send pictures without any issue at all (in fact MMS appears to be working better). So to remove it do the following.

1. Go to settings

2. Go to Mobile Networks

3. Go in to Access Point Names

4. Click on the last APN titled Verizon (there's no bullet next to it to be able to select it)

5. Click the 3 dots in the top right and delete the APN

Your phone will most likely have the exclamation mark showing next to your service, but should then go in to data network. From my experience your phone will now toggle between 3G and LTE without the need to manually enter LTE. I cannot guarantee that this works across the board, but it's worth a shot and after a day of testing it has been working flawless for me. Worst case you can always restore APNs back to default or reflash the ROM wiping your data. you may want to do a Nandroid before hand just in case so if anything happens you can restore it. I hope others have the same success I seem to have and enjoy.
