A- I am using clockwork mod b4 (this thread, right?) Along with da_G's kernel, so I thought his was the right thread.

B- I have used my phone. I have been on this mod and kernel for a couple of days now ( i have had my Note since the day it was was released in the us), and it seems odd to lose that much battery when 80+ % of the time it was reporting to be in deep sleep.

C- I have no ideas on the other items you asked about. I have applied no additional scripts, settings changes, etc. If you could educate me on how to check for those things I would be glad to do so.

I am a novice at this stuff and was merely looking for assistance and opinions on battery life.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ajairola:
ReggieSmith, CWM doesn't control Processor Speeds, Deep Sleep, or Battery Life. Hopefully you can find anwsers to you questions in Da_G's overclock kernel thread.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] canecbr600:
This is a recovery, not a kernal. Has nothing to do with battery life at all, its just a recovery! Post in Dags kernal thread... Have a great day. :-)

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] rajendra82:
Is there a way to modify this recovery to see encrypted storage volumes? The reason I ask is my phone connects to the exchange server of my company. And as a part of the security measure, they are forcing me to encrypt my phone's internal and external storage. I tried to use CWM beta 4 recovery to flash the Da_G kernel today, but because of the encryption CWM beta 4 recovery does not see the internal or external storage locations. I flashed the stock 3e recovery back, and when booting into it, I am first asked the device password, which in turn unlocks the storage volumes. Booting into CWM recovery does not prompt me for the password.

I've flashed custom recoveries to 2 notes already, I dont understand why this is being a pain (first time attempting to flash cwm though)

Definitely about to lose my mind. I get mtp connection and I've installed the Samsung drivers, however when I plug in while the phone is off, I get usb malfunction, unrecognized device (regardless of which usb port I try).

Drivers are not only not my forte', but what I believe are the creation of the devil himself. In heaven drivers will be non-existant and devices will be recognized no matter where they come from.

Getting MD5 error.

I did a backup of SAUROM v4 and restored no problem then I flashed TPC V2 and backed it up, then I tried to restore SAUROM v4 and am getting a MD5 error for any backup I try to restore. CWM is v5.5.0.4 which I believe is the beta 4 version.

Any ideas on how I should proceed? Reflash beta 4? TIA.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Rocket42:
I hear that. I had the very same thing happen with drivers for the Captivate. NOTHING worked. finally went out and paid 25 bucks for a nice think data cable and do NOT regret it one but...thank goodness. diff cables, diff ports, reboot...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] paleh0rse:
no. You need to boot holding VOL-down and POWER, then hit VOL-up when it prompts you.

I have used Odin for over a year on several devices, But decided to use adb to flash the CWM on my Note and I liked doing it that way better, look at page 5 of this thread, Braway put instructions there on how to flash CWM using adb.

Good Luck!!!

How do I get in Clockwork recovery from a powered off state?

I tried pressing vol up+ vol down and holding the power but nothing happens, just boots in to home screen.

I also tried holding down vol down and power, than it goes it download mode.

Thanks.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jpeg42:
Turn the phone off. Hold volume up and volume down. Then press power until you feel the first vibrate. Then let go of the power button, but keep holding volume up and down! do this until recovery comes up.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] id_mew:
It worked!! thanks alot!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] id_mew:
So I'm trying to do a Nondroid backup on my external SD, but when it's backing up it tell me no external SD was detected.

But when it finishes the backup, I go into my storage and I see that my external SD is misssing 2gb of space. So does that mean it's working?

is it only doing this because Clockwork is in beta?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] braway:
it probably tells you that sd-ext was not detected,

and that is normal, since there is no sd-ext

Issue with V4 MDM5 error

I get an error trying to restore with vB4 large font saying that the MDM5 is incorrect. I reflashed B3V2 and it recovers it fine. I've found a couple of other places where they say they are having the same issue with CWM V5.5.0.4

http://www.thriveforums.org/forum/t...-thrive-stopped-working-cant-recover-cwm.html

So with B4 I can't restore and with B3V2 I can with no problems. Something you may want to look at

---------- Post added at 03:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:47 PM ----------

Doing more research, it's not CWM V5.5.04 as that is in B3V2, but in the B4 big font version. So if you have a problem restoring from B4 BF, flash back version B3V2 and you should be fine
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] id_mew:
I just checked my SD through my files, and i did find a backup.

Thanks!

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Rocket42:
Can you clarify what to be careful about? FYI, i flashed beta 3 when it came out made a back up in recovery no prob. flashed beta 4 big font. backed up in recovery no prob. Flashed a ROM no prob.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] dsmitty166:
Recovery for the most part works just fine. However there are select cases of getting write errors when flashing something. As what randomly happened to me.

Chances are, you will have no problems, but there are still bugs in this beta.

Personally, I am now waiting for a bit before working into anymore dev work. Unless I can flash via odin, I'm going to be cautious for a while.

Just my .02, but one brick is enough for me!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] joedoe:
What exactly were you doing when it happened?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] dsmitty166:
Flashing a test theme...got an error status 7

Failed to write to E:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Rocket42:
HMM. this is what i am doing....I am not mounting or unmounting anything. flash from sd = ext sd. flash from int = internal sd. i put stuff on my ext and flashed and i have put stuff on int. and flashed. I have gone into recovery data wiped...cache wipe, dalvik wipe flash..reboot. all has been good.

Could it have been the theme itself?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] dsmitty166:
I was working on a vr theme...

Talked to the guys from the team there, and they said there is no way that it could brick it. Could send it into bootloop, but not a brick. My conclusion is, my fault :)

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] u921333:
The manufacture would probably be able to plug it right into some kind of jig and boom good as new. .. turn around and sell as refurb. If they truely work with us here the magical ability they have to unbrick the device would be accessible to the people paying $700 for their product. ;-)

On another more thread related note.... Is this about to have the beta tag removed its running great or we still working on the usb storage mount?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] modmyphone:
Honestly.... I wouldn't have. If it's because of my own stoopidity that I bricked my phone and not because of a manufcturers defect, then I'd find a proper solution. Whether offering Adam some money and a device to rip apart or waiting until a method is availale. Or even going as far as buying my own replacement to replace my f*ck up.

That's enough off topic since this can go back and forth for a while.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] starryeyez:

Its been awhile since I used odin.... im confused.

which file do i use to get CWM big font ? I don't have cwm yet. and yes I'm rooted.

I cant remember if its the TAR file I put in the pda spot or not? Sry I know this is a noob question. I think I'm having a slow day.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ruger94:
Download the Odin version(tar), place in PDA slot, get phone in download mode, make sure window is updated to show phone connected and flash to phone...My advise would be check OP for more info before flashing...good luck!

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] kemestry:
Hey guys,

I've run into a bit of an issue. I've been using the Note as my work phone and encrypted the data as per the Exchange Policy. Now that I have flashed this, its not letting me get past the opening password even though the password is accepted. I know I'm not bricked because I can get to the ROM but I can't get in.

I've factory reset the phone, wiped, & formatted the SD. Still no dice.

Any help would be appreciated.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] SkipKelley:
Some of these services (Exchange/Lotus Notes/etc), they won't work if you have rooted your phone. They have to remain as it came from the vendor or it won't work. Basically, you have an unsecure device you are trying to put secure data on and the serivce won't recognize it.

It's the same for DRM stuff. Why you can buy movies for Itunes, but only rent them on the Android.

It's a pain, but I can see the point
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] kemestry:
Yep .. I agree. And I see the point of it.

My issue is I can't get into the phone period. I can get into CWM to flash and wipe, etc .. but as soon as the ROM wants to load, I'm greeted by this screen that doesn't allow me to go any further. I enter the correct pw and it just freezes.

And ideas? I'm at a loss at the moment.

Update: I've formatted the system partition and still no luck.

How can I get rid of this lockscreen??

I'm at a loss ..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] kiltedthrower:
Would someone be willling to post up a zip of their stock rom so I can flash it? I made the stupid mistake of not making a nandroid backup right off teh get go.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] kemestry:
Hey guys,

Solved it. There was an MMC Block (Encrypted SD card I believe).

I had to use Da_G's stock Att Odin. I had to enter the exchange pc in a low res screen that popped up after flashing it. It was weird. I then wiped it and I was good to go.

Thanks to Da_G for your great work!

when I do this in ADB, I it tells me that the directory doesn't exist. When I look at "my files" in the stock file manager, I see there's no sdcard directory but there is an externalsd directory, I'm wondering why it's showing up differently, and should I change the path in ADB or what?

Or am I missing something, I figured with ATT phones it would all be the same.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] paleh0rse:
"/external_sd" is actually a subdirectory of "/sdcard".

/sdcard = internal storage location

/sdcard/external_sd = external microSD card

You would need to traverse up one level to see /sdcard itself. I suggest using an app like Root Explorer or ES File Explorer.

EDIT: Where did you download the recovery.img file to? If it's in the root directory of your actual microSD card, then change the "if" path to:

/sdcard/external_sd/recovery.img
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] orangekid:
I put the file on the microsSD and not internal storage, so I should have put the file on internal storage? (the 10gb free one)?

edit:

Yeah that was it, I moved it to "phone" and it flashed fine. Thx
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] paleh0rse:
lol, cool... see my edits above. ;)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] orangekid:
yeah, lol, we were on the same page, but it was easier to just move the file than change the path.

Is there any way for me to get into recovery without having to turn off the phone and back up holding 4 buttons?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] paleh0rse:
well, there are only 3 buttons, sooooo.... ;)

You can also use various apps, widgets, and mods (sometimes built into roms) to add a "reboot to recovery" function.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] orangekid:
I'll just try a widget.

last question since you seem to be quite helpful today.

Since I now have system root and CWM on here without tripping the flash counter, can I literally flash any ROM/kernel/zip thru CWM without having to do anything else or ADB anything else and it won't trip the flash counter?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] braway:
when using adb or possibly even the cmd line (terminal), you could use "reboot recovery"

for adb it should be something like "adb reboot recovery"
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] orangekid:
that works perfectly (the adb reboot recovery)

and for the record, I love blue CWM more than green or orange :)

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Eric-1987:
You will not trip the flash counter that way. Only if flashing something through odin.

Many Thanks, braway. I used your method to recover from a bad recovery flash. It took several attempts, but all's well that ends well. One question, what's the difference in CWM and CWM big font? I saw no obvious change in appearance from one to the other.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] braway:
the font is much bigger

if you compare the screenshots

then you can see, that in the normal version, the version does not "touch" the at&t logo, and the big font version is like up to the center of the at&t logo
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] joedoe:
In the tar version it's not big. Only CWM update version brings big font

What am i doing wrong?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] nm3th:
You have to hold power + Vol up + Vol down. When you feel the vibration, let go of power and continue to hold Vol up and Vol down until you see the recovery screen.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] 1tontomato:
Power of the phone off then holding the power button and Vol up and down at the same time till you feel the first vibration then release the power only, that should put you into recovery.

Sorry man, it seems you're one of the only few active skilled dev working on this phone. I was wondering if there are hardware limitations that prevents from developing. There is only one good Rom available so far, and no signs of progress. The GS3 seems very promising.

I seem to found a bug. I installed the saurom rcvi (the update, not the full wipe) and normally, the system rebooted. I then went back into recovery so I can install the new transfusion theme (which is awesome btw). It was working perfectly fine until I got into my internal sd/download and scrolled to the zip. Now I'm not sure what I pressed (it was dark when I did it) I think i pressed the back button but most probably I press both search and back in the same time. So the menu went back and no matter what I pressed it kept going back. Once I got into the main menu any button I was pressing made the menu disappear/reappear (I get left with just the background). That is when I press a button the menu disappears and when I press another it appears again. This goes on till I pull the battery. Once I do that it works fine. Happened 2 in a route though.
