Hi. I'm thinking of buying Choicee (New brand?) 16gb microsd class 4 for my htc sensation. What do you guys think?

http://www.ebay.com.my/itm/Choicee-...Domain_207&hash=item256e88359d#ht_2239wt_1139

Also, i'm currently using 8gb class 2, how do i copy EVERYTHING in the card to the new card so they are exact but with extra space? Just copy/paste it straight away or it needs some requirement?

Thank you
[HTC Sensation] k0zmic:
The card looks decent but I'd still go with a proven brand like SanDisk or Transcend.

Have you got any apps on your SD card? If so move them to internal memory.

Then copy the contents of the SD onto your computer and then put them onto the new SD card.
[HTC Sensation] mrquidz:
yes, currently almost all of my Apps are in SD card..
[HTC Sensation] Xhinde:
As it says. Is it somehow possible to reassign the HW bottons on the XE? I am mainly looking to replace the search botton with the Runnings apps botton from ICS. Since the XE wasnt designed for XE, it is kinda missing that. I am currently running ARHD 6.5.3 (If that helps anything).

Thanks in advance.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattybxda:
Hello xda developers :)

I am wondering if someone can answer a few questions i have about rooting my samsung note?

I'm in Australia and just got my note with vodafone on Saturday. I have been doing some searching in the dev section and I haven't found my kernel version (2.6.35.7-N7000BDULB3-CL977082) to download from dr.ketan I have also searched for it on sammobile.com with no luck also.

So from the above statement does anyone know where i can get a copy of it from or know how i can backup mine from my phone atm?

I have found a root solution however It is for the GT-N7000 model which is at rootgalaxynote.com/galaxy-note-root/how-to-root-galaxy-note-gt-n7000-method-2odinheimdall

If I followed this above method would I end up bricking the phone as the phone version are different? I found nothing on a search when comparing the two :(

Sorry for an the essay of a post too.

Looks like you're the only guy in the whole wide world with the exotic N7000BDULB3 GB, mate.:)

https://www.google.com/search?client=opera&rls=en&q=N7000BDULB3&sourceid=opera&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8

Anyway, you can always flash and root and older Rom, then upgrade to whatever you want whilst keeping your root. Here's a little guide to downgrading and rooting I wrote some time ago, hope it helps.

You'll have a rooted KK9 rom after you're done. Then you can download any new GB version (LC1 is the latest) from here and flash it with Mobile Odin, with Everroot and Inject Superuser options ticked. That will keep your root.

Good luck. :)

Check your device manager(my computer - Rt click - property-device manager), without opening kies

your device should not have yellow mark

And try to wipe cache (vol up+home+power then wipe cache)once then try.

How I got root and updated to a new firmware

Thanks to dr ketgan and chasmodo for being patient with me to sort out my troubles with this successfully rooted now and updated to latest UK firmware.

Before doing anything thing make sure you have the correct drivers installed for your operating system in my case I had hours of issues as the samsung usb driver i was using wasnt 64 bit as i had a 64 bit OS

To get root I followed Chasmodo guide he wrote which is at http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=23606842&postcount=12

The files I used were:

N7000XXKKA_N7000CPWKK3_CPW.zip which is the FW

InitialCFRootFlasher_KK9

Odin3-v1.85

After rooting using Chasmodo guide I used dr ketgan guide from here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1424997 using mobile odin to flash the updated firmware.

The files i used where:

N7000DXLC2_N7000OLBLC2_XSP

CF-Root-SGN_XX_OXA_LC1-v5.3-CWM5

Theres a photo on dr ketgan guide that shows injecting CWM into the new firmware if that dosen't come up don't worry just follow dr ketgan steps to install the new firmware over the top.

Once that's installed, just run the alreadyroot.bat file in the CF-Root-SGN_XX_OXA_LC1-v5.3-CWM5 folder that should have been extracted.

Using the same principle like before in chasmodo guide.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr.ketan:
Glad to know u got it.

One thing to ask, 1of ur msg on me said your flash counter was 8

I can't understand that, neither of mine or chasmodo's tutorial can lead to this.

Have u gone beyond that tutorial, when there was boot error?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattybxda:
The reason I think it went up is since i was trying to use odin on the windows 64 bit machine and there was time it was bricked and wouldnt load the os. At that point i was desperate to try anything, so i was trying to flash the new firmware through odin as well as the old one using the new odin program v1.87 and odin 1.85 just to try get my phone working again.

But from my mistakes I thought I would try clarify to other people to make sure they have the correct samsung driver installed before using odin so they dont get the same problems as i did and raise the flash counter.

I have bought a USB jig so i will try anonymous572 tutorial to remove it: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1354888 when i receive it. The thing is with my original firmware that came with the phone, it had a vodafone boot screen when loading now its a samsung one so i think even if i did take it in for warranty they might be abit suss but, hopefully when the jig comes i can reset the counter and all should be well.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chasmodo:
Look, I wouldn't mess about with the jig if I were you. Reseting the counter that way is a scary procedure - half of the steps have to be performed on a black, bricked-like screen.

No need for that. Official ICS will drop soon anyway, then you can use Triangle Away to reset your counter. Many of us did it, and it works flawlessly, no glitches or failures reported at all.

interested in gaining root access, got stuck at the picture that shows how you should see samsung device in device manager :(

Installed the 64x samsung galaxy s driver from link, plugged into different usb port in back of pc running windows 7 premium.

next step is to do the home + volume key usb connection thing as maybe it only shows up in device manager under those conditions, which seems odd to me. Anyway rushing out the door thought I would post before I leave and love that n00b video I just had to watch to register :)

Hi m004

Good choice on the note ;)

What I ended up doing is moving to a 32bit machine as my main machine I was trying to flash on was 64 bit and was just incrementing my odin counter. Note This was before I learnt the 32 bit usb drivers I had installed on my main machine was the problem.

My advice would be, if you can go to a 32 bit machine and use the 32 bit usb drivers that dr ketgan has in his signature and on his thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1424997

If you cannot access a 32 bit machine the procedure should still work on your 64 bit machine with the 64 bit drivers installed like you said you have installed. If you are unable to flash on that machine and your counter does go up, don't worry as when ICS is finally released we can install chain-fires remove triangle apk which will remove the flash count from download mode without having to use a jig.

Then just follow the procedure:

My understanding would be that odin should flash the older firmware on to your phone without any issues but maybe check out a few more threads regarding the 64bit samsung drivers before taking the plunge, as I don't want you to get stuck without a phone.

Hi!

Just a heads up. I live in Sydney and I also got the Note on a Vodafone plan. I have the same version as yours. Thanks for your work on figuring out how to root it.

Forgive me if this is not the right place for this question, but since we have the exact same phone and versions, I wanted to ask a question.

You know how the phone comes with a lot of apps on it. A lot of them are not stock Android apps, but possibly Samsung or Note specific apps. So after flashing a different region ROM, in your case the UK one, will you lose some of the preinstalled app? And for example, what about the Navigon navigation? I think it is pre-installed/setup to the Australian version?

As a side question, is there some way we could possibly contribute this GT-N7000BDULB3 version of the ROM to like http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1424997 and possibly make rooting this version possible?

Thanks!

Just a side note the navigation app makes you install it then u have to pay for the maps :( if you use google maps and navigation through google u can get a gps that tells you where to go for free ;)

With regard to our Vodafone image, can't we dump it somehow? (Or how was the other roms obtained?)

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattybxda:
There probably is a way to get the image off but I couldn't find anything on how to go about it :(

I do know that the other roms were obtained from samsung themselves from: http://www.sammobile.com/ where they actually release the official firmware of samsung devices.

From my understanding telecos take the official samsung images then install their bloatware and the like on these image then sell the phone with the modified rom.

If you do ever come across an Australian Vodafone default rom I would be eager for a copy just for backup purposes :)
