Changing JellyBean settings - Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II

So I finally have JB installed as of yesterday.
Of course, during flashing, I chose wrong setting, and now when phone starts, it does not have dropping down jelly beans, and I kind of like it.
How do I get back into those settings, to have them raining down? I am referring to the very initial settings that one has to complete, BEFORE JB ROM will flash.
Start up is very boring now. And I turn my phone off every night.
Also, under OTA update it now says "invalid ROM" and "error fetching update info. Invalid ROM (jellybean....) & device. Is this of any problem to happen any time soon, or I need to fix it somehow?
Thank you.

To change options just boot into recovery, wipe both caches and re flash this time choose the options you want. Also I believe the updater is messed up right now

Oyts.. That's a lot of work for start up screen. I'll let it be as is, it's not that important. Resetting all accounts and such - not worth it. Thanks, man, you've been saver for 2 days.

The other option for boot animation is to just pull the file from the zip and place it in /system/media

Ahhh.. I can try that. Reckon, I can even do it via PC. Thanks.

Hmmm... Now that I haver calendar back - I really want to get that beans drop. Backed up phone, just in case. I tried to open JB Zip though, on pc and on phone, and it won't. How do I get to the boot animation? Use 7zip? I just restarted phone, and boot screen sucks. But I really do not want to go through entire re-setting process.

Ok, got the file opened on PC. Found boot animation. Have phone hooked up and opened. Nope, can't find system/media folder neither on "phone" nor on "sd card".
Guess, will have to come back in few hrs and re-set phone. sucks.

You cant access tthe root of your phone like that. Put it on your sd card then on your phone using root explorer put it in /system/media or from your computer you could adb push it there

Simply re-flashed with JB. I turned guidance video, so was a bit smarter in choices this time. Those beans are really nice. My last concern is - apparently, JB ROM did something to the sound on the phone. It sucks now. I'll fool with Apollo, maybe it'll help some.

Beans Town in the next Jellybean update can you fix the (bluetooth volume too low problem with the Galaxy Note 2), I have the Perseus Kernel and the audio settings in STweaks work perfect for the audio but does nothing for the Bluetooth volume.

Well, though it's hijacking a thread, but does JB have issue with BT volume? As I just ordered Belkin BT adapter for my Camry, but am returning it, as it sucked bad with JellyBeaned phone. I mean - yes, it was very dull and low and pretty much left channel only. I am returning adapter, but what a surprise - maybe it's not its fault?
Come to think about it, I rented Camry with BT integration 2 weeks ago, and same phone rocked with it. The difference was though, I was on stock phone then.

Bluetooth works fine in my 2013 Mustang GT. Even with the top down it's loud and clear enough. It does have integrated Bluetooth.

So, in my case, must have been that Belkin adapter. Danibri, you are on JB ROM, right? As concern is not with phone, but with how BT operates with JB ROM phone.

Yes, running JB, Build 11. I don't do anything with the eq after tweaking with the S- Tweaks. Now that I think about it, I have yet to connect my phone to the car via USB. It's always been over Bluetooth. I mostly have been using Pandora, Spotify, and Google Music with it. Also have used the Google Nav with no issues. Reminds me, I really wish Google Music and Spotify were supported apps in Ford Sync so I'd have better controls and interplay.

Thank you. I am running TuneIn radio and am very happy with it. My both cars don't have BT integration. I tried Belkin adapter to full failure.
S tweaks, hah? I'll look into it. Planning on buying new head unit with integrated BT in a few, maybe that'll fix it.

next time I'm in the car, I'll try tune-in and see how it goes. I have Sirius so I hardly even listen to standard FM radio anymore.

Tunein is online radio. Not FM. It's not a question of radio, it's question how BT works with JB. Only reason I stick with Tune in is because of FrenchKissFM and because it proved itself to be most reliable radio I tried.

I am more than fully aware of what TuneIn Radio is. I've been using it for probably longer than you've been on XDA.

[USER][CM7] Bluetooth tips and tricks...and questions

Hope I'm not duplicating anything, but there seems to be a lot of BT related questions and none answered in one unified place. Also I think the BT Dev thread should be left to the devs (to keep it easier for them to work on things, rather than help us mere mortals ).
This applies to CM7 (latest nightlies, Tablet Tweak RCs) ONLY (as far as I know).
So, if bluetooth does not turn on, there a few things that you can try.
Do a HARD reset (that is, hold down the power button until the NookColor turns off, then start it back up.
Fix Permissions in ClockworkRecovery:
Boot into CWR (w/SD, load it in. With CWR installed on eMMC, go to ROM Manager > Reboot into Recovery. Alternatively, hold down the power plus "N" button for ~8 seconds (from a shutdown NookColor).​
Try both!
An interesting thing to note is some users (myself included) can only start up bluetooth within a pretty short window of time after the NC has booted up. Not sure why timing is important, but could be a factor for those who cannot start up BT after some given time of operation.
I found this tip that may work after a fresh (read: wipe system/data) install, but may also work after flashing a nightly over a nightly.
If you're ready to turn on Bluetooth, there's a trick. If you don't do this, Bluetooth will just refuse to turn on / be enabled.
Turn off wifi (Settings > Wireless & Networks > Wi-Fi)
Reboot
Turn on Bluetooth (Settings > Wireless & Networks > Bluetooth)
Turn on wifi
It seems a bit odd, but that's what you have to do. From then on out it'll work fine.

For a list and description of devices that work with the NC, check this out:
Known functional Bluetooth devices
For tethering data via BT, try android-wifi-tether. While it can be used to create an access point on your phone via wifi, you can also opt to use BT to create the tether. This works well in conjunction with TetherGPS which I use to provide GPS info to the NC from my G1 while using CoPilot Live to show navigation (I don't have data on the G1).

Tried that previously and it did not work for me.
In other words, it works as with all the kernels I've tried (your OC'd and stock kernel): it will start up if I start is quickly, but otherwise not.

me too. I went back to 4/4 since them. If I leave BT on all the time, it is on when I boot, but if I turn off BT and reboot, it won't come on without a hardboot (holding down power.)
Fix permissions is NOT needed, just a hard boot.

For the last few days Ive been trying to get BT working w/ my car stereo, using phiremod 5.3
I have no problems enabling Bluetooth (first time I had to reboot a few times and fix permissions)
With it flat against the stereo, I'm 'paired but not connected' and getting it to actually connect usually takes 4 - 5 tries.
After its connected- when I try to play any kind of music, it gets stuck every few seconds- and stays stuck for more than a few seconds (like 10) and plays again.
I just downloaded this kernel, (wiped caches, fixed permissions again) and it connected on the second time, and only got 'stuck' once for maybe 2 seconds, and played the rest of the song with no problems.
Seems like it changed something on my end...
Just figured I'd mentioned it.
(I can go back to the other kernel, or a different version of cm7, and see if I get the same connecting/ stuttering problem, if you thing it would help)
Btw- thanks so much for sharing all of your hard work!

Never had an issue with the IMEI number, but here's how I got it setup.
Start with the TetherGPS app running server on the phone and client on the NC, as well as tether-wifi from google running on the phone, then connect to the AP on the NC
Next, open/install the app. It should read the GPS data from the phone
Now, switch back to a wireless connection with internet access, download the voice, then enter the serial/etc...
Finally, load the app back up after all the registration stuff 'n things, and use the "internet" connection from the phone to grab the GPS info.
Copied and edited from cm7 user thread.
I have xoom bluetooth keyboard with disconnect issues. Would the special kernel help with this?
From the accessories thread. "I found a work-around. Download the app Bluetooth Keyboard JP, change the settings in settings > Language and Keyboard to that app, then connect the keyboard." Anybody else try this or others? Blue Input is another one. I know of one more but can remember its name.
I'm running Phiremod v5.3 cm7 from emmc and cm7 nightlies from sd card. I usually have a data sd card but can switch it out. I have updated the cm7 sd card before. Not sure which nightly and OC I used last. Could use ClockWorksMod to flash this kernel to Phiremod v5.3. Could replace the kernel, uImage, on the SD card. Usually there are different kernels for emmc and sd card.
Another issue: When I have the keyboard active and playing flash files from the internet, it seems to buffer more. If I move the keyboard out of range or use settings to disconnect the keyboard, the buffering is less and the flash files play better. I have cyfi bluetooth external speakers. When I use them I get the same buffering issue, so I just use an external player through the headphone jack instead.

Apparently the latest version of Copilot has introduced this error. I have spoken with tech support regarding the issue and they told me that they are aware of the problem and will release an update early next week that will fix the problem. Apparently if you have version 8.2.504 it works, but the new version breaks it. The dev won't send me a copy of the old version, so I guess I'll just have to wait and hope.

I don't know if that is a solution, but the problem appears to be a conflict between wifi and bluetooth. Turn off wifi and most of your keyboard problems will go away.
Also there is an app on the market called "Null Keyboard" Which simply turns on a keyboard device that disables everything keyboard related. It doesn't disable bluetooth input, but it gets rid of the long-press pop ups and is suppose to solve other issues as well (including the software keyboard popping up every time you want to type.)
I haven't had time to install it, but it's purchased.
Does anyone know where (on the Nook) the BT chip/antenna is located?
It might help to know, since the range is so limited...

I was just using google voice to text from several feet back. In fact it was hard to read the small print from that distance. I did not realized that keyboards have a larger range then headsets.
Testing Bluetooth Keyboard JP now. Force closes, so just switched to swift keyboard I downloaded from amazon app store for free. To get out swift keyboard and get a null keyboard, I hit the back key on the xoom keyboard, then the virtual swift keyboard no longer shows up.
@chisleu do you have a link or instruction to modify bluetooth keyboards so that keys can have their mappings corrected. Xoom has some correct and some wrong or disabled under CM7.
Couldn't get BT to work at all however powering down while the wifi is off, and turning the bluetooth on before the wifi made it works on the first try. Was streaming Slacker to my stereo in a matter of minutes. Wifi doesn't seem to interfere with the BT audio stream at all, audio sounded crisp and perfect. Range however was still limited to a foot or so.
Hoping there is a possible hardware mod that can hook up an antenna to the BT chip. I'd be in heaven if I had full BT functionality on this beast.
FYI, Although I don't have any RF experience I'm still an electrical engineer so if anyone can toss me a bone on the PCB layout or pinouts of the nook I might be able to try stuff to boost the range.
What is the feasibility of adding dial-up networking client support to CM7? Some folks are able to tether their NC to their phone using an ad hoc wifi network, and others have had success via a Bluetooth personal area network (PAN) using the "pand" utility. Unfortunately, I have a Blackberry phone, and it does not support the PAN profile. It does, however, support dial-up networking (DUN) over Bluetooth (confirmed with a Windows laptop).
According to https://sites.google.com/a/android.com/opensource/projects/bluetooth-faq, "dund" is the client utility that is needed to establish a dial-up connection from Android to another device. When I run this command on the NC, it says "dund: not found". I'm not a developer and don't know how much effort would be involved in adding this functionality to the build. Is it just a matter of including the binaries, or is there additional development work involved?
Thanks in advance..

[Q] Anyone having problems copying files to the Tab?

I'm not sure if this is a problem with all samsung devices, just my tab, or perhaps even my computer:
Whenever I try copy a large file, say a movie, the transfer stops half way through and I get a message saying "The device has stopped responding" So I break it into smaller pieces and transfer separately, which works. Then, after I disconnect the USB, I get a repeated toast "Media Scanner Running" every few seconds. Whenever I try open the Video Player, Music, Gallery or even Camera, they close right away. So I read somewhere online that this is Samsung's crappy media scanner. I cleared the data from the media app and then I see a message "media scanning completed" and now I'm able to access these apps, though they show no files.
I have finally resorted to streaming over wifi from my desktop to the tab. Is anyone else facing these issues?
I'm currently on the latest overcome ROM, but I've seen the same issues on AOKP, Task and even the stock 3.2 rom.
I just found this post and would like to say that I too am having this problem, it happened with the stock ROM and after ROOT with Task650 ROM... I was worried it was the hardware in the Tablet. I was wondering if you ever resolved this or found a way around, as I too can't transfer large files (my movies) to it, it just times out.
I will also have this problem, only with Android 3.2
with CM9 I had not more ', which are now in stock, it has returned to make, so it's the rom
I used to have this problem when I had my sleep timer set to 1 minute. I now set it on 5 minutes, and have yet to see the problem reoccur. I just loaded a 2.5 gigabyte folder to it this morning without a hitch. I am not sure that is the solution to your problem, I have done many things since then...any of which could have resolved the issue. I am a flashaholic, so it may have been resolved on one of my more recent wipes (I always restore to stock and completely factory reset my tablet prior to loading another rom).
Regardless, try changing your sleep setting to 5 or 10 minutes and see if this resolves your issue. Post back your results!

Are you transferring using Explorer or Kies? Try using Kies and see if it has the same problems if you were using explorer.
I will try changing the sleep setting, that's a good idea I had not thought of this. I am transferring through explorer - I will try it tonight and post back my results.

Looks like this didn't help me, the transfer failed. Also, I keep hearing the USB connect/disconnect sound all throughout while the tablet is plugged in, and yes I tried different USB ports. I even uninstalled Kies and tried. Same issue.
Sometimes toggling usb debugging on the tablet works for me. Seems like the tab drivers don't play nice with some usb controllers.

Hrrmmmm, interesting. It sounds like one of 2 things is happening:
1. Your connection between your tablet and your computer is intermittent, whether it be the cable or the pins on your tablet connection.
Or
2. For some software related reason your computer cannot keep your tablet mounted. You may try going into your devices tab on the task manager and remove all references to your tablet, then try plugging ur tablet back in.

Video Camera Not working

I just started having this problem after root. I can not load up video camera, when I restart phone i can take pics, but when i click on video it freezes. It cannot startup video camera afterwords either. I force stopped, cleared data, and most recent pics. I have rebooted, IDK what it could be, anyone have any ideas?
I just tried to show someone the camcorder for the first time and it also is freezing. It sends an error report to HTC but never resolves the problem.
Is this a common thing?
Apparently the camcorder won't work at all for me.
I am not even rooted.

IDK, it worked perfectly before root. Now nothing. I am doing a factory reset first. I already ereased google wallet so, I will report if it fixes anything. Do you have face unlock set? I did
Just a hunch, but perhaps this has to do with the fact that I am trying to film/write video with a class 6 64gb sd card? Thats the only thing I can think of off the top of my head. Otherwise I have a very healthy brand new EVO LTE that should have a functioning camera. Do you also have a 64gb sandisk installed?
EDIT:
I switched back to Phone storage for saving and it is still not loading the video camera, even after multiple reboots.
Um... WTH?
Well i just noticed i put in an 8gb class 2, lol waiting for another 32gb online. But I had to reset for it to start working. Now its fine, but I set photos to internal.
Um.
I don't want to reset my phone.
lol root it first, install titanium backup, wipe google wallet, then reset.
And wipe wallet data before resetting!!! (From what I've read)
Also, anyone know WTH this icon in my notification bar is that looks like a hearing aid or BT headset lol? I feel like an idiot, but it just popped up at some point and I've been all thru my settings trying to figure out what it can be and just can't find anything out of place. Checked accessibility and security and other places. IDK.
Sorry. I didn't want to create a thread for sure a silly, ridiculous question.

[q] Bluetooth on AOSP 4.2.2 ROMs

Has bluetooth been fixed on any 4.2.2 ROM yet?
I've been having the following issue on the ParanoidKangdroid ROM which from what I've been reading is typical of the BT issue
If I use BT to make a call from my car, or stream audio then turn BT off, it won't re-enable without rebooting. Whilst my company requires my phone to be off whilst I work, I play with the spirit of their rules by sending it to airplane mode instead, in order to still use time based alarms.

I haven't come across any roms that have completely fixed it. Even the stock 4.1.2 rom was giving me a lil trouble. I learned to leave it on, or reboot if I needed it. I'm guessing that your not to worried about battery power since you leave it on all day just for alarms. So why not just leave it on?
It's amazing how much the battery doesn't drain when you turn off all of the radios (except for wifi*, will I'll expand on later) for 7 hours 50 minutes of an 8 1/2 hour period, only using the phone for 40 minutes during that period.
* I leave wifi on to automate "Work Mode' using Tasker. Tasker uses Wifi to detect one of the networks at work, which when detected, activates Airplane mode (which another couple of profiles deactivate airplane mode for break & lunchtime.) , turns on a number of Gentle Alarms, and undoes everything when the network is no longer in range.
I use Secure Settings to remove wifi from the list of radios controlled by airplane mode so that Tasker can still check for the work wifi, and I could do the same for BT, but I'd like to reduce as much unnecessary battery usage as possible.

Does it come back on again after toggling it off without rebooting? I',m currently using Jamie's last ParanoidKangdroid build and I have to reboot to regain BT after turning it off.
I have not found a way to do it without rebooting. Really hoping the next Cm release fixes this, as someone who uses bt all the time for music, I probably hate this more than random reboots

Can you use your BT (not just connect to a paired device but, stream audio or make a call), then turn it off, and turn it on again?
It has no problems I connected in the car on my way to and from work, went to the store today no problems no reboot I turned it off then on then off. And I can make calls and stream music on my car stereo and laptop.

I'll give it a shot, but I'm skeptical... why would Carbon Rom be different than any of the other current CM bases? I'm even using the stable Nexus ROM from Jamie and it still has this problem consistently... But alas, I will give it a shot!
FWIW, I have just installed Jamie's latest Slimbean ROM which he advertised as having a new kernel in the hope that the kernel has addressed this issue.

Nevermind, problem started again today, DOH
Installed Carbon last night, and found that Bluetooth turned itself off and refused to come back on again without a reboot within ten minutes of initially turning it on.
I use Bluetooth daily. I'm on AOKP http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=42101680
So far it's working flawlessly, where as before on 4.2.2 roms Off had the same experience as you.

Bluetooth wouldn't start on the second boot up with that Rom :-\
Wow. Sorry to hear

Seems like it's just a deeply embedded problem with all of these Roms, and for whatever reason, some treat others devices nicer than others. I went back to Jellybeer, which only has this issue every once and awhile. Still there though.

[Q] AOKP 4.2.2. MMS, BT, and SD issues

Hi everyone!
So I've been Google and forum-scouring for about 2 days without much success (keeping in mind I don't understand much of the technical jargon).
I have a Samsung Fascinate i500 from Verizon, running on PagePlus Cellular with AOKP 4.2.2 ROM installed and generally have loved it. Coming from EH03, the new ROM has completely turned around and vastly improved the usability of the phone, and I am very grateful.
I have had a few problems, however, that I can't seem to figure out. Perhaps someone can instruct, in layman's terms?
1) I do not receive MMS at all. The message shows up in the notification window, but when I open it up in either the default messaging app or Verizon Messages it disappears. I have turned on my data and turned off Wifi, replaced some XML files and re-installed the ROM. No such luck.
2) Yesterday I lost the abilitiy to send and receive SMS as well. I re-installed the ROM and now everything is fine, but I really would like to know what I could have potentially done wrong to avoid it in the future. I contacted PagePlus Customer Support who walked me through several trouble shooting steps and it seems the problem is the hardware and not the service.
3) Bluetooth simply connects to nothing. I have a stereo in my car that connects to the speakers for hands-free talking which worked seamlessly on Gingerbread. However the two pieces of hardware no longer as much as detect each other. I found no one else who had this problem. Are my Google skills really that bad?
4) I have been using Fusion as my default music player and randomly yesterday, all my music stopped showing up (stored on a 32gb UH-1 SanDisk microSDHC card). After re-installing the ROM, everything is back to normal. Is this a problem in the app, in the ROM, or in the user?
Thanks so much in advance for helping out a n00b!
Bump. I'm also not getting speakerphone sound. Help?

Thanks for the advice. I gave it a whirl and it seems to have corrected most of the problems.
I'm still not getting any speakerphone sound during calls though and I just found out I'm also not receiving notifications about new voicemails…there goes that job interview.
Any suggestions?

That could be a bug in the build but idk, bbrad is right the ICS builds are more stable, I don't use my fascinate much but to play music but I'm running Paranoid Android and it seems pretty stable and running well with devil kernel(includes cwm inside the zip).PA includes twrp recovery. Hope this helps

The notification problem is with android 4.2.x itself and the fact that their target phone base are those with 4g lte capability,,, which of course we don't have,, but it's coded that way and causes those phones with 3g only to hang during the voicemail process...
One of the best workarounds is to install Google Voice, there are also others in the play store that offer "voicemail notification",,, but not many have mentioned them in the fassy forums,,, but i skimmed through one day and reviews looked good. Some people don't like the Google monopoly, but it doesn't bother me, i use what i need and enjoy the integration
Another option is the GeeWiz ROM he has patched his to fix the problem of sorts,
He offered the patch, i believe, to cm and others but they never really seemed to latch onto the fix that I'm aware of..
.
That random music not showing up issue happened to me twice, except it was on CM10.1 nightlies. I am downgrading to ICS as of today, but sometimes the phone screws up reading the SD card. What i did was:
1. reboot
2. unmount SD card in Settings>storage
3. remove SD card (take off battery cover, the slot's in there)
4. reinsert the card
5. wait for around 2 minutes
6. reboot
7. go to the music app (I had Apollo) and see if your library is there
8. if it isn't there, force close the app and go through those steps again
it only happened twice over the course of two weeks. just make sure everything's clean and you're set.
