[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] clockcycle:
I'll know in a few weeks..

The GT-N7000 aka International Note and the SGH-I717 aka North American Note, both have the same dimensions.

The only physical difference is the home button on the GT-N7000, which is why any case made for either that also included something to do with that button area would make either incompatible with the other.

Cases that cover the back and sides/edges would be compatible with any current Note. At least that has been my experience so far. YMMV

Here is a side by side compare of each model available on pdadb.net;

Hey guys, i actually pressed on Disable for the Google Music Play app... and now i can't find it anywhere to reactivate it, i've also tried re-installing from a .apk and all it says it's that it's disabled and the only option is to uninstall the updates (the .apk)

i'm running Ice Cold Sandwich 7.0 ERROR404
[HTC Incredible S] DragonDios:
Well, I found it !!

To the people to who it happens, I used Auto Manager it's on the market, you have to go to options and enable system apps, from there you'll be able to find it and re-enable it !!! :D
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cameljock:
Anyone else having a similar issue as mine?

I was trying to troubleshoot some unrelated issue with my phone, which eventually caused me to flash my ROM from CM9 back to stock and back to CM9 again.

After I flashed CM9, I forgot to install the Google apps package in clockwork mod and continued to boot my rom.

I had discovered that my wifi tether (built into CM9) worked, but then rebooted and installed the gapps package after realizing that I hadn't.

After I had reinstalled the gapps package, I proceeded to check if my wifi hotspot still worked, but it did not (immediately after I engage the hotspot, it automatically deactivates).
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nikon120:
Maybe reflash the rom and gapps again?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DestinedChaos:
Only suggestion I can offer would be to track down the hotspot process in your Apps Management. Go inside of the process and do a Force Stop and Clear Data to get it back as if you were starting it for your first time. I know it's the CM9 integrated WiFi tethering so you might want to check what the process is called. I've spoofed a lot of programs into re-working that way. I hope it works for you too - good luck!
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cameljock:
I launched terminal emulator, ran the "top" command, and saw the two services which I believe represent the CM9 integrated wifi hotspot:

iscan_sysioc

dhcp_sysioc

I can't find these two in my apps list to clear its data. Does anyone have any suggestions?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] csmasn:
Just reboot. It has been happening to too many people including me.

I have rebooted countless times, at different stages of initialization for the hotspot.

No change. It still automatically disengages.

I tried this on EL30 modem, then upgraded to FC09. The hot spot still breaks every time after I install gapps (I just checked, and it's the latest version).
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] csmasn:
Try reflashing the ROM, but in CWM go to Mount and Storage and format System/Data/Cache. Not using the "wipe data/factory reset" in the main screen. And wipe Dalvik too.

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] csmasn:
Well, as we can see you have a very very HONEST phone.

Try using the "fc09 boot from sdcard" and update profile, prl etc...
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cameljock:
I've just checked, there is no "fc09 boot from sdcard", but there is a kexec bootable el30 which i already have and have successfully updated the prl and profile.

This did not fix my issue.

Does anyone have suggestions?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KennyG123:
There is an FC09 but wtogami did not make a seperate thread for it. Here is one of the posts:

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cameljock:
Thank you for this info, I just downloaded it to try it out.

You are right, this might not fix my issue. Does anyone know why installing gapps on my phone breaks the integrated (and third-party) wireless hotspot?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] csmasn:
Try with AOKP...is almost the same as CM9 but with a Pink Horse.

If not your phone is really very honest.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cameljock:
I'm going to resurrect this post, because I just installed CM9 RC1, and I am still having an issue with Google Apps installed breaking my wifi tether/hotspot.

Can someone, for the love of all that is unholy, PLEASE HELP ME?!

I'm going to semi-necro answer this, because I just installed CM9.1.0(Stable) -Build date Aug 28 with fc09 and was having this exact issue, and like so many others found no answer...

Goto Running services, kill both google services, start wifi hotspot, win.

[HTC Sensation] Freshly_Snipes:
Google through some company named GfK, have sent me some random letter to my house saying I have been randomly chosen to participate in random testing concerning the way I use TV, Smart phones, Computers and tablets with benefits and a tiny little payout..They also included a REAL $2 bill as "incentive" I guess. They don't know that I own any of this so I assume they "maybe" would be sending me these things. (I already own 2 Xooms, A Kindle Fire, 2 laptops and 5 Android smartphones but how would they KNOW this?). Just kinda odd and random I guess.

Anyone else got one of these or can provide me with more details as to what it is? has anyone here ever done one of these and what is it? i'm uncomfortable with it because it was random. So I thought I'd ask my homies here on XDA.

I did Google and find this too. http://www.google.com/landing/screenwisepanel/

I attached a copy of the letter.

Thanks for any input or information given.

EDIT:

Nevermind.... http://www.engadget.com/2012/02/08/google-screenwise-panel-pays-to-track-browsing

[HTC Sensation] Behold_this:
Not sure how one gets on these lists, but I have gotten letters like this from time to time for other tech companies (usually they come with a $5 bill, lol). They are legit but usually require more effort than their merger pay out is worth. You must track and report a lot of info (sometimes you even allow them to do the tracking via certain devices), giving out a lot of private data in the process and spending a bit of time to do it. I usually pocket the $5 (in this case apparently its $2) and move on with my life.
[HTC Sensation] Freshly_Snipes:
Why can't I get the black box???

I think I am going to try it out and if I don't feel comfortable or it becomes to tedious I'll just stop. I hope they don't "force me" to stay reporting if I choose to.

[LG Revolution] jlt8604:
Hey Guys I recently updated my LG Revolution to the new ZV8 update (via LG Flash Program) and lost root. At this point, I attempted to reflash to ZV7 and re-root using the all-in-one click root from our forums, but to no avail. The App detects the device and shows the whole process working, but does not complete it's task. Upon reading the forums a lot of people had similar issues, but were instructed to push files to certain locations and to do processes that I am definitely not well versed in. I would really appreciate some step by step assistance for:

1. Re-Rooting My Revolution while on ZV7

2. Updating to ZV8 With Root

3. Re-Enabling CWM

4. How to boot into Recovery to Flash Roms

I have extensive experience Flashing an rooting many other devices, but this seems to stop working at every corner. Any assistance with this would be greatly appreciated. For anyone that does help, I have no access to the SDK, or ADB, or any program that pushes to or emulates Android. I need as simple a step by step as possible. Big thanks to any volunteers.
[LG Revolution] Bait-Fish:
Unless someone gives you some quick and easy info to get there from where your now, I would highly recommend mtmichaelson's Easiest Method for Keeping Root Through ZV8 Update .

You'll first have to LGPNST back to ZV7, then you can use the method in the link above. Follow the directions exactly . It was painlessly easy for me coming from GV 2.1
[LG Revolution] jlt8604:
I followed the directions to the "T" to no avail.

*daemon started successfully*

Then nothing. No response whatsoever. Drivers Match, device has usb debugging and internet connection enabled.
[LG Revolution] Bait-Fish:
Of you got to a the point where you're running the second batch file in that link, you should now be rooted after ZV8 OTA. Others have suggested using option number 2 in that beach file to test reboot into CWM Recovery. Nothing at the daemon sounds like it's Internet Connection and USB Debugging but you said those are enabled already.
[LG Revolution] jdlaser:
Check this

Do you see the debugging icon in the notification bar? If you don't, daemon won't start. I would suggest starting over with the V7 tot and go from there if you are not getting the debug icon, (means debug is not starting although you have it selected)
[LG Revolution] jimmyhawk:
debugging will not show up unless internet connection is selected also

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ghost shell:
How do I backup the bootloader? Does the EFS image includes it?

I've read that if you overwrite GB bootloader with the one from ICS, for example, it will no longer be possible to reset the flash counter using a USB jig.

BTW, is there a glossary/dictionary/faq explaining Android terms in a precise way (firmware, bootloader, radio, SPL, boot process, etc) ?

Thanks
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Makrilli:
I think nandroid includes also bootloader but I'm not 100% sure. EFS backup won't include bootloader backup. also if you update to ics you can just use triangleaway

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Not seen one but precise has no meaning as users call rom and |Samsung call it firmware .

Like wise radio could be modem or baseband .

You are the first asking to backup bootloader .

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Missery:
easy. get the latest CWM (5.x) and make a ackup.

the bootloader will be saved in boot.img

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adilrazeen:
The old bootloader from gingerbread works fine on ICS. I have used it in conjunction with the usb jig to reset the flash counter and remove the triangle.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ghost shell:
Yeah, I thought so about the lack of precise definitions since the terms are used loosely.

And it seems it's even more tricky because on some ROMs people say it will (or not) overwrite the bootloader, so for some the definition of ROM includes the bootloader section.

Are you sure about this?

The kernel zImage and the boot.img are exactly the same size.

So that would imply that the bootloader is included in the kernel image.

Doesn't seem correct to me.

Anyone can clarify?

(btw, yes I used CWM to make a backup of all the stuff, but I'm just not sure if the bootloader is also backed up with it)

So is it always possible to flash the bootloader section?

Or when mess up with the bootloader you end up bricking the phone and can only fix it with a cable?

Thanks

I have 2 custom roms on my phone, cyanogen mod 7.1 stable and miui v.2.4.6.

Flash boot.img found in the rom zip using the fastboot flash boot boot.img command.

My hboot version is 1.16, s-on with htc bootloader unlock. Then used clockwork mod recovery. I thought ya didnt need s-off?

And yes it still screwed up after doing boot.img (i tried it before on both roms)
[HTC Incredible S] keroro430:
Try to downgrade the hboot to 1.13 and get a revoluationary s-off.
[HTC Incredible S] freidchikin:
Whats the easy way to downgrade hboot? Im new to this stuff.
[HTC Incredible S] keroro430:
Check the stickies from this forum.
[HTC Incredible S] tpbklake:
Ok then the quote above you was spot on. You simply need to manually flash the boot.img when you an unlocked bootloader.
[HTC Incredible S] Nonverbose:
Correct. You do not need s-off to flash a custom rom. I strongly advise against attempting to get s-off if you cannot correctly flash a rom.

You mentioned "tried doing" a boot.img. You cannot use the one in your cwm backup folder as this is not the right one. It must be from the rom you wish to install. This must be done EVERY TIME you change rom on an unlocked bootloader. You should also be wiping cache, dalvik and data.
[HTC Incredible S] freidchikin:
There is no ruu available for downgrade- i checked. Are you guys sure i need s-off to run miui?
[HTC Incredible S] freidchikin:
Same problem. I flashed boot.img from the right rom. I did all of those procedures and it still constantly restarts. Also wifi no work. What wrong with miui?
[HTC Incredible S] AymaR13:
My two cents.. and two questions

Did you remember to do a "wipe data/factory reset" and wipe the dalwik cache before installing the ROM? Did you see any error messages right after the installation?

Does CM7 restart as well, or is it only MIUI? I remember this happening to me with Virtuous Quattro, and the download file turned out to be faulty. Check that as well.

And no, you do not need s-off to run MIUI.
[HTC Incredible S] freidchikin:
yes, i did all of that. I do not think the download file is faulty, but i dont know how to check. No, only miui is the rebooting, cyanogen mod only has wifi problem
[HTC Incredible S] AymaR13:
I have had WiFi problems with MIUI, but not the one you describe here, and have never seen this with any of the ROMs I have had on my phone, specially Cyanogen. Have you tried flashing Virtuous Quattro or Kaijura's Ice Cream Sandwich?

And to check the downloads, use an md5 checker; there are many available on the internet for free.
[HTC Incredible S] freidchikin:
Well miui keeps crashing, so i gave up on it.

I am using cyanogen stable 7.1 and everything is working fine except wifi. It wont detect any networks and sometimes it would say that the wifi or settings is not responding. Does anyone know how to fix the wifi?

JRW, are you experiencing the camcorder issues or is that just me? Also I just wanna say great ROM otherwise.

Edit: Also is there a way that you could get Contacts sync from the Facebook app to work? I've seen other Android phones do that with a non-modified Facebook app; I think there's something involved with blur that tells the app not to give us that option.
