So I restored to stock rooted 4.0.4, still doing the sane thing!

You have to try different radios. Either way any of the radios shouldnt do that to ur data connection so I guess also make sure your wiping thoroughly when switching roms.
Indeed strange

I'm using twrp recovery, I wipe system, factory reset, ROM, dalvik/cache, cache, fix permissions, reboot and wait 10 minutes, then reboot.
But when I did the restore I did the wipe system, factory reset, restore, fix permissions, then reboot.
Should I have wiped the cache too before restoring?

Is there any chance your data is being throttled?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T989 using xda app-developers app

Nah just started my new month on the tenth, get 5GB's, haven't even used 1 yet.
I did the full write before a restore, still nothing. I'm using data now but its like slower than 1x

I just freshly flashed mind trick v8 earlier, went fine for a while, now it's acting up again. Plus whenever I do the speed test, it seems like the GPS icon won't go away.
Should I try another radio with the mind trick Rom? Which would you suggest if so? I hear the skyrocket one is good?

Just tried flashing the Samsung blaze radio.. same issues, I don't get it.

Speed test keeps seeking like it's freezing, or skipping, nothing will load unless I use Wi-Fi, someone please help, so far I've tried different roms and radios.
Sent from my SGH-T989 using Tapatalk 2

Try UVLG3 or the Koodo radio. I am on the Koodo radio now and I feel like I could download a web page from inside a room with lead walls.
I thought TDJ posted modded radios for some ROMs...not sure if they're still accessible though...

I've tried everything, I just finished odining stock 2.3.6 then re rooting, stick 4.0.4 right now. I'm so baffled Odin should have fixed it.
Could any of my problems be how the phone was unlocked when I bought it?
When I signed in, using the initial setup wizard also, it didn't even load, just sat on signing in, had to restart the phone.

From what I gathered I think u said your restoring. If by that u mean apps and data using titanium then don't do that.
Flash darkside.super.wipe
Flash a Rom (doesn't matter)
Flash darkside.cache.wipe
Reboot
Wait 10min
Reboot
Setup ( by that I mean sign in to Google)
DO NOT RESTORE OR DOWNLOAD ANYTHING
Download speedtest from market and run it to see what u get.
Post your results
Hope this helps

No I don't mean restoring like that. I meant like restoring the phone to how it was out of the box. I never restore my data or apps.
The problem is I'm not running a Rom though, so I don't get why it's saying that?

P.s. I did those steps exactly. I'm averaging 1.5mbps down and up.

Hmmm
I guess it could be three things.
A weird change in your area Is giving ****ty data reception. Which is ruled out if you get those speeds anywhere you go. Also highly unlikely unless your running an underground lab with crazy radiowaves spewing everywhere.
Your phone is shot. Which could be tested by inserting your SIM card into another gsII and attempting to get better readings. If your data is back to normal in that scenario then the phones shot. If it's still messed up then it's ur account.......which leads to the final thing.
You have been accidentally throttled or something else on your carriers end.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T989 using xda app-developers app

I hope it's not those things. I noticed my busybox was outdated, I updated it, ran speed test, and it pegged to 17mbps!
Then I did a couple more runs and it was choppy and slow. It kind of seems like the app keeps freezing when it's running a test??
This is all on the note radio.

I've had the SIM for just under a couple months, it always said I needed to upgrade the SIM card, but it just now started acting weird. It does kind of seem like I'm being throttled, but I still got 4 gb of data to use.

Went and got my SIM replaced, they said they're renovating towers here completely, including the underground work. He said they aren't really getting complaints, but that may be why. When I went there though I was easily getting 12 down in front of the store constantly. So I'm guessing maybe a location thing?

This only happens with the FB17 kernel and I believe it happens when the kernel starts going at 100% usage then it dumps.

Yes seriously I know that alot of people have been having issues with the building and modem but this is the only problem I'm having. In fact for some reason this modem has helped me get better signal in my house, where I almost always was roaming. Now since I put it on my phone I only have roamed for maybe 20 minutes when I was literally in the middle of nowhere.

You can use the FB15 modem on any rom, you don't have to have the unreleased ICS to use it. (I'm using it just fine on a stock build)
All I'm saying is, is it worth the risk to your business to be using pre-release OS on a phone you need to work 100% for work? This is the primary reason I've not installed it yet. I have to have 100% working.
Same happen to me on rooted FB17. I let it do it's thing and reboot automatically. I didn't see any issues or data loss. I wasn't too worried. I am sure it isn't a good thing but I don't know if it is a bad thing either.

Go Back to EL29 and keep using the FB15 modem and your problem is solved. If you are THAT worried it is going to happen on something important then you should really NOT be messing with Alpha builds at all. That or also doing a bit more reading and understanding that we do have the choice of running Modems that are either older or Newer then the current build of Android we run is something you can do and still be safe. I get it's the one problem you are having but at the same time this is Alpha software you are using it does have problems. Swap back to a GB build keep your modem and be happy for awhile longer till things are better.

Did the modified Google Wallet APK stop working for anyone else?

Long story short, I've been running the latest version of Mack's ROM, which is awesome, along with the modified APK of Google Wallet that we all know still isn't officially supported. With that said, this Apk has been running for me without a hitch. I even used it yesterday. As of right now, out of the blue, it's giving me the dreaded "your device is not supported at this time" message. As far as I know, I didn't change the ROM or anything else other wiping the Dalvik cache\ cache, and installing a new battery. Anybody else having an issue?
Mine also stopped working...

If you are running a MA7 ROM, you do not need to use a modified wallet apk. The regular R96 apk works just fine.

So apparently it's not just me. I've always used the aforementioned apk, and after a reboot it suddenly stopped working. I'm thinking maybe Google patched the workaround. Either way, I hope there's another way or our Note 2 becomes officially supported.
Fr what it's worth, I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling several times. Nothing has worked.
Same here. It's being blocked for everyone now. It works at the places that only require one "wave". Like at gas stations. Tried it this morning and although it worked I got this message and can no longer access anything on the app:

Reset data on wallet then hide root reboot into recovery wipe dalvik/cache reboot then try setting up wallet then turn root back in if it works. This worked on the Evo LTE when it 1st came out and they pulled wallet.....it wouodnt work since it detected you were rooted.

By the way, as I've stated before, I have uninstalled and reinstalled the APK. This means it hasn't reinitialized, meaning it probably won't work for me again. Correct?
This is my current screen, which most likely is identical to everyone else's.
Just flashed the newest version of Macks All Star and re-setup google wallet. Setup for wallet went as normal when changing ROM's no issues or hiccups. Going out later and will see if it works, give you an update when I return.

That is correct. Since the app doesn't let you in if you uninstalled it won't work at all. I get the same message but I didn't uninstall so it will still work.

Everytime I have to do a fresh install because of me screwing my phone up and making it do SOD's (screen of death). I always reset google wallets. If I am going to do a system reset I also reset google wallet first. When I use Titanuim back up I also always revert back to my old market ID number too just to be on the safe side.

You don't think this is the same as being permanently blocked, right? I say this only because I didn't wipe the wallet. I felt that there was no need to because I didn't switch ROMs.
It works just fine for me on my note 2 running Macks All Star 3.3, used it at Jersey Mike's Subs and Starbucks. As others have said always reset google wallet when ever making changes to your phone and I always revert back to original android ID thru titanium backup.

[Q] Note 2 battery life expectancy?

Hey
I'm new to these forums but I've read many topics discussing battery life for note 2. Now can you please tell me if these battery stats are normal for note 2 t-mobile. I'm currently on cyanogenmod 10.2 4.3 nightly. I'm also very new to android(coming from ios) so please don't mind if I don't understand android lingo. I have brightness set to manually where I would change it myself. Is this the rom causing problems or should I just go back to stock?
Thanks

Sure u can restore ur nandroid u made with ur custom recovery... your probsbmay be rom related or most probably due to low reception at ur area..

Do you have data turned on in settings?
The answer to your last question about restoring... yes, you have it correct.

yes i do have it on. I just restored to my stock and 4g lte connection is back and hopefully battery life will come back also. i love cyangenmod but can't do it without 4g. is there still a way i can flash it to cyangenmod 10.1 4.2.2 instead of 10.2 4.3? all the download links i see are 10.2 4.3
Thanks

That is flat out amazing, how did you do it?! I must know! What rom/kernel are you running? greenify? cpu tweaks? anything else? that is the best I think I have seen... and the theme looks good to! Please reply!
This i aamazing . I've seen battery life that lasts people couple of days but nothing with this kind of screen time.
The really surprising part is that he seems tto be on some soap rom... and I get poor battery life on those... and all that with 6hr on screen time. I'm flabbergasted

Q & a for roms by oblikas...

I have created this thread for all the questions you guys may have for Roms that are created by my good friend Oblikas. That way the actual Dev section will be clean...

I'm having some battery drain running any 4.3 ROM. Checked better battery stats. It said suspend back off under kernel wake lock and that WiFi running was at 100%. Any ideas at why this process won't shut off despite WiFi itself being off?

Also I want to clean my phone and start with a fresh slate of a phone only running 4.3. Will doing any certain wipe achieve this? I always do the factory reset wipe with twrp before flashing any ROM. But I want to clean out all junk files from previous Roms.

Try a reflash and I recommend always doing a full wipe when installing any Roms.
Sent from my LG-E980 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Can you explain what you mean by full wipe? I am always hesitant because I am not sure if I could remove root or my recovery if I do the wrong wipe. I toggled WiFi on and off then restarted the phone and it seems to have fixed it but I will reflash soon anyway to get a fresh phone with no left overs.

Yeah no problem...
Full wipe includes System, Data, Cache, and Dalvicke(spell check) Cache. I also recommend wiping the Internal SDcard as well because of left over data from different Roms. Becareful though when wiping Internal, that your Rom zip is on the external SDcard so that you don't get stuck in recovery without a Rom to flash.
If you're using TWRP everything needing to be wiped will be under Wipe>advanced wipe... Do not wipe you external sd!!!
Hopefully that helps...Let me know if you need anything else.
Ok on the carbon rom someone said you could flash the slim gapps so that you would have the complete dark mode and the only problem I'm having with that is the keyboard will not swipe type it shows the gesture trail but doesn't actually type anything

Correction: I think its because of the slim gapps. I flash pa gapps and I can swipe.

I'm getting great battery life on Carbon, stock is the best but I cannot complain. I turned off all FB and Hangouts notifications and my battery time went way up! Make sure you don't have a ton of apps pushing data.

Compatibility with F240 models?
As I understand none of these ROMs flash a modem, right?
No...but you can try it..prolly won't work at all.

What modem do you have? Also check to make sure touch sound isn't turned on. That will give you major wake locks and drain your battery.
I'm going on 15hours with music playing all day and I still have 35% left. 2hours onscreen time.

Look at the 3rd post on the ROM page and make sure you follow those instructions...it takes away a lot of demons.
Google...Yahoo...Bing...and even XDA all have a search function...USE IT.
Do I need to flash another modem I thought about that but the op did not say to. Everything else is running perfect the voice calls seems to be what's draing it
Sent from my LG-E980 using xda app-developers app
The ROM does not alter the modem, just run the original modem in madmacks cm.

Flashing Carbon Rom Nightlies
I know it's definitely not recommended when changing ROMs but if I'm just flashing a new version of Carbon or any updated ROM can I dirty flash over the same rom? I've been a flashaholic since the walls came down with glorious LGOG Pro ROMs. I'd like to settle in and not have to input information and re-set up the phone every 8 hours. Thanks ^_^
We had one tester dirty flash, he said no issues arose but the nightly did not have a lot of commits. Hope that helps
