so when i get this error message, you are saying this is correct, and when i dont you are saying it is wrong? i was able to also successfully flash the second kernel you posted and that worked and there is no no error message. should i go back to the first one which will generate the error message?

my apologies, i thought i had stated several postings ago that i was able to install the gapps zip folder precisely as you just mentioned. it is that

i cannot install simple apk's with any level of certainty

that is my issue. i have apk's of apps id like to install and i keep getting one error message or another.

for example, i have swype installed hwoever the keyboard is too small. prior to flashing this rom i had swype installed and it was the perfect size. so i looked around for a swype apk, found several and id like to install one to see if there is any size improvement in my keyboard. i cant though, i keep getting one eror message or another saying it will not install or cannot install or there is a parsing issue. no matter which method i attempt i result in failure. this is exactly the same for 90% of apps im trying to install which are outside of android market, and even for some that are. when i try copying the apk to system/app i get read permission errors, so i cant do that either.

i'm trying to understand which is the predictable method to install the random apk, whatever it might be. ive tried using the cwm app prompt that says "install apk" , that never seems to work. ive tried the same in the cwm recovery, which has only worked for the gapps zip folder but not other zip folders. ive tried root explorer and just trying to launch or install from sd or directly from a gmail...nothing.

much thanks,

jason
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] SergioBigred:
I am sorry I was meaning that you were finally able to have the latest CWM installed and you had to use it from the recovert boot menu rather that from the app

I might not be perfect from now on but the essence of what I am about to write is correct :p

APK relies sometimes on library file or other low level function provided by the friwmare.

This means you CAN'T always install an apk file, because its correct behaviour may depend on functionalities provided by a library file that your firmware can't provide (sometimes because thei are linked to a specific handset or a manufacturer).

The market, in fact, filter based on some infor from your device the app you can actually install.

What are the apk you are trying to install?

For swype you can search inside the kernel zip file in which you have a APP directory with the original .apk that have been removed. I installed that swype.apk from there is working like a charm.

To copy an app in that folder you need root explorer (you can find in the market), presse the "mount RW" key (because you are trying an area that is protected, thus you can write on it unless you have rooted the device and use a file explorer able to change permissions). Anyway I would't do that because you may copy an apk there that requires a library that you don't have because you are not supposed to have it!

Use the market. Or install apk that doesn't require specific library files that are linked to specific firmware/handsets.

To install a zip folder via CWM it should not be only a "compilation" of apk files but have also to contain other info (like the META-INF directory in the gapps)

Hope this help

yes. just get it from sammobile and flash it with odin. i also prefer and use the original firmware (with cf kernel of course).
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] jason370:
I had swype on the stock rom, once i flashed the hk rom it was gone and i could not find a way to reinstall it. once i finally found A version of it, it had very small keys, which are miserable to swype on, all i want is the original swype back, the version with the larger buttons.

i have no idea what version that is, and i have searched. swype is pretty elusive it would seem

thanks

3. Thin version (few System Apps removed) [If you think that this version is too thin for you, you can add every App you want manually, as they are all additionally contained in the first download package (ROM package).]

OK so i found swype...

i installed it but it just keeps force closing on me.

jesus im so close i can taste it.

any thoughts on how to fix the FC's?

UPDATE!!!!

i did it! i did it!. i copied the swype apk to system/app and hit the r/w button in root explorer, rebooted and bingo bango...i got it back...no more FC's!

thank you!

which features do I gain with the ROM in the OP?

Hi,

New to all this stuff. Just got my GB over the weekend, and it already did a firmware update of its own to KK1 (Hong Kong). Which features will I get from the firmware in the OP that aren't in the auto update? Will the OP ROM still be faster?

Thanks!

Giving me an error message

For some reason it can't be installed on my G-Note. It gives me an error message:

E:signature verification failed

any input?

I've been having problems with my G-Note

(here is the full story: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1359079 )

Basically, I bought it online in China and they screwed up my G-Note (no android market, no S-memo, no samsung apps, etc and replace it with other things in Chinese).

Device:

Rooted Galaxy Note Model GTN7000 Android 2.3.5 Version N7000XXKJ4, kernel:

2.6.35.7-N7000ZSKJ6-CL679970 se.infra@SEI-43 #2

Steps:

downloaded the .bin, -> changed it to .exe, -> extracted it using winrar, copied it to device sdcard.

Then, I rebooted the G-Tab using Power + Volume UP + home buttons.

I clear the cache first, and went to update from SDCard. I chose the zip file, and press home.

result: it goes true things, and give the error message, and went back to "select file to update from" menu.. The download bar still appears, and appear downloading but it stuck at 1/8 of the way.

how to get new Market with this rom?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] budalica:
I have questions .

Can I flash this rom over KJ4 ( my current stock ) ?

I don't get it. It's zipaligned and has busy box but it's not rooted . I thought you need to be rooted to zipalign and install busybox . ( you don't have to explain I am just saying I don't get it ) . What is the benefit of this rom ? Any bugs ? Any tweaks to camera ? Because mine is crap it has scrolling lines going from top to bottom ! Any Complaints ??
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] koreanfcow:
poor battery life (~5hrs)

Really impressed by how much faster things are with this ROM, especially the note taking.

I've been running this ROM for the past 2 days, but could've sworn the stock ROM had a better battery life. I used to be able to go a full day on a single charge. (Meaning, I would charge to 100% the night before my work day. Listen to streaming radio for 1.5 on the commute to work. Websurf for another 2-3 hours on and off. Streaming radio for another 1.5hrs on the way back home.)

What I'm seeing now (with all the power saving features on, GPS/Wifi/BT off, LCD to lowest setting, haptic/vibrate feedback off) is that i can get about 5hrs of use before i get to 5% critical. Most of the power drain is usually on Call time or Display.

Even at the lowest brightness display, it's already too bright for me. Any way to turn this down even lower? Any other power-saving apps/tips to try?

Anybody seeing this behavior?

Thanks!

I'm having the exact same problem when trying to put this ROM onto my friend's Chinese G-Note.

E:signature verification failed

On boot his actually says it's a GT-i9220, not N7000. Must be a Chinese model issue.

Any ideas on how to get past this error?

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] kenninaz:
Ok. So here's the story.

I rooted and installed CWM with Chainfire's method. Everything was fine until i decided to flash something stupid (UOT Kitchen thingy) and got my Note in a boot loop.

Can I boot into CWM Recovery and flash this 2.3.6 ROM? but Recovery only looks for .zip files... so what do I do?

Also, is there a difference of copying the .zip file to internal OR external sd card and flashing from there? coz i dont know how to copy a file to internal sd card since i cant boot up the phone.

EDIT: fixed. archive manager in ubuntu couldnt seem to unzip the exe correctly. had to switch back to windows.

this hong kong version has compatibility issues with installing apps through android market on the browser, not to mention that some apps don't appear in the Market (error is = "This item cannot be installed in your device's country")

what i did was i separately downloaded the Maps 6.0 apk and installed it, but i ran into problem with permissions. Maps kept asking me to login with a Gmail account but when I tried it says the account already exists and I can't login.

Any ideas?

I know it would probably work if I dumped the whole app folder onto the sd card and "install from zip" thru CWM recovery mode, but what if I only want to install the talk.apk, for example?

The rest of my apps (GMail, Maps, Market) all work now, so I don't want to run the risk of jeopardizing the working apps by installing the whole app folder. Will it affect the rest of the working apps if I do? I just need to have talk.apk working again :(

Heres my situation...

My sister has a Inc2 that I rooted for her and flashed CM7 and tiamats 1.1.4 kernel. Her fiance just got the same exact phone. His is completely stock and unrooted but he loves my sisters set up. They live pretty far away now so I cant set up his new phone myself, and neither of them are very tech savvy so they cant do it themselves.

Heres my question..

If i had him clear his internal storage and his sd card, would it be possible copy EVERYTHING from my sisters phone onto his stock empty, stock phone? Or somehow restore a recent backup of my sisters phone onto his phone?

Thank you in advance for you help.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] PacerguyDon:
Really, the only way I can see this working would require his phone being rooted as well. Then it wouldn't be a very hard process. You could have your sister make a backup in Rom manager, or in recovery, then copy that backup and use dropbox (or some other means of cloud storage) and upload the backup, then have him download the backup, then restore it through Rom manager or recovery. This would give him the same setup as on her phone.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] collinray:
Well not really. Could just do a nandroid of his sisters, place the nandroid on the SD card if her fiance's using either a mini usb or an SD card reader, then just do a full wipe, restore, remove any apps from her install and remove her accounts and add his. Should take long. It's the same process I use when i get a phone replacement from insurance. I just load a nandroid from the old one.

This is why people are shying away from xda. It seems every other post on here, some mod or dev has to be a jerk. Would it be so hard to say "next time post this in q&a." I understand it happens often, but that is part of a large forum such as this. I used to frequent xda, for all my android needs but lately I can't stand the negativity all the devs on here have towards new comers.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] knipp21:

As well as the fact that there is a giant DROID INCREDIBLE 2 Q&A on our main page..if I had a question, I would ask there.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] maltby84:
So the Q and A subforum is for technical questions regarding rooting and in depth technical problems? Thats funny because Ive seen plenty of those in the dev subforum with no attitude from the mods. Im new to posting on xda so they would not let me post there, otherwise I would have. The last two honest questions Ive posted I have gotten a smart ass remark from the mods.

THATS why Im so upset, Im sure theres plenty of people that feel the same way.

There are other forums that arent modded by angry nerds on high horses. From now on Im just coming to xda for the downloads.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] knipp21:
No. The Dev forum is for those posting threads that are mods or roms. Questions about said mod or Rom should be asked in that thread. All other questions belong in q&a.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] knipp21:
^^^^^^^^

This isn't being a jerk. It's the truth. Like i said you go to the dinc2 section and you see the q&a sub forum...now where do you think a QUESTION belongs? The only smart ass was the one who got smart because his thread was moved.

And short of rooting the other guys phone, your only hope is maybe giving him the same theme to make his phone like hers..but he won't have root features.

Oh and if all you want is the downloads..don't ever post a rude comment again. If you are only going to take away, don't expect anything given to you.

Ps. Had you posted this in the Dev section you woulda been flamed much much worse.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] maltby84:
Back to the original issue...

He was running 2.3.4 (0.98 bootloader) so it was a little more in depth than I expected. I ended up emailing him super noob step by step instructions for downgrading to 2.3.3 and the download links for the current CM7 nightly and tiamats 1.1.4 kernel. Worked the first time.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] maltby84:
Its not just in the inc2 forum bro! I posted this in the bionic forum and do you see the response I got? I even said in the post that I didnt have permission to post in the dev thread! I pm'd the mod calling him out and he posted it in the dev thread for me, but not before a premature rude remark.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] colossus:
Wow you are one sensitive guy, you are asked in simple terms to follow rules and then you spit your dummy out because you find it hard to follow that request.

The situation is now this, you was warned about your conduct yesterday, you continued with another outburst and openly admit you only will use Xda for downloads, this with your total lack of respect for mods, rules and fellow members who have tried to explain the situation, shows that you are just here for yourself. We all have to follow rules. even me, if everybody had a free reign to do as they please we would have no Xda, for now i am closing your thread as it seems nobody wants to help you, probably due to your attitude, i will decide what steps i will take later!
