Water is trickling through the overflow pipe. I installed one of those
new valves without the ball about 18 months ago and it worked fine
until I got tired of the tank filling slowly and turned the water
supply valve so that water flowed into the tank faster. I can't
rember how to adjust the valve lower in the tank. Sorry about the
skimpy description

There should be a rod going down with a metal clip connected to the
float. You pinch the clip and slide it down the rod further to adjust
the float.

Take the toilet back to the store. You're too stupid to have indoor
plumbing.

Turn water off, empty tank by flushing, get a good look at valve.
usually there's a clip around stem of valve that you slide back, then
push down on valve to shorten, then slide clip back on. If you have to,
pull the valve out and make your adjustment.
