Root [Verizon] Best Custom ROM for Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note 2

My GPS is solid, audio is fine for me although I really have never had a serious audio issue on any rom, I know people think some are not as loud as stock, but I can hear fine... I think sbrissen has an audio fix in the cm build so that will probably filter down eventually too, devil kernel can be flashed and has an app to boost the sound but again I don't really see any issue.

How did you get Paranoid's GPS to work?I've tried many ROMs and looking for one with a working GPS and a good battery life.I've tried Jellybeans,CleanROM,Jedi,Paranoid and currently on Pacman.None of those ROMs had a working GPS besides Jellybeans,but Jellybeans drained my battery life with almost no usage when I'm at work

I don't understand why your phone is having a hard time with GPS and battery life. Like I said before when I got my phone back in the beginning of the year I rooted it and left the stock rom on it for a little while then flashed CleanRom Ace 4.6.1 and have been on it ever since for almost 10 months now. Also haven't ever updated it. I have no issues what so ever with anything not working. I've used GPS many times and I tether on it constantly and no problems with battery life.

I am thinking of trying this one however I know nothing about how good it is yet. If you try it before me then let us know what you think. :)

[ROM][i605][4.3.1]OFFICIAL PAC-Man NIGHTLIES[CM10.2][AOKP][AOSPA][SABERMOD 4.9/4.7] - xda-developers

I have been running this ROM for a while, running the nightlies and it's a great ROM. Everything works, also great with Plasma kernel.

The GPS issue is common across any non touchwiz based ROM and the solution is to flash a working touchwiz rom, get a gps lock and then flash the other ROM. Beyond that, I can't say why you are having an issue, I have been on almost every rom now and can always get GPS lock... Battery life can be helped on any ROM by flashing a kernel and changing settings that favor battery life. Personally I have found a good combination with PAC man ROM and Plasma Kernel.

I'm on Meanbeans now and it's perfect.I like CleanROM but gps didn't work at all.I'll probably stay with MeanBeans for a while
