I've run into a little force close issue with TouchScreenTune. I can install and run it without issues but the moment I apply modded values the app just force closes. I'm using the registered version so every time I unlock or reboot the phone I get the force close because it tries to apply the values again.

Once I uninstall and reinstall the app I can register and use the program again until I apply modded values.

Cache and Dalvik are cleared before and after installing and I found no solution for the problem, the app works like a charm on other GB and AOSP/AOKP roms. I realize it's definately not a priority to fix app problems but I attached a logcat anyway.

Any suggestions on a modem? I'm still using lp5 and it seems fine so far, any suggestions? I've heard reports of SODs and I know the modem affects that sometimes.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] knightnz:
And the fact that you shouldn't be using test firmware if you don't know how to use adb and/or generate a logcat.

Saying "x doesn't work" is not helpful to a dev.

I have noticed another minor issue that I am assuming has to do with MHL not working but I wanted to put it here just in case someone else had figured out how to solve the issue, I docked my phone in my car today, I have the official samsung note car dock and I noticed that audio passthough didn't work like it did under gingerbread. Normally I would have to go into the dock settings and check the box for audio passthough and it would work through the usb connector in the dock and put the audio out though my auxiliary jack. It's not a huge deal I can just plug the aux into the top of the phone but I was curious if anyone else had run into this issue, and can maybe confirm that it has to do with MHL not being supported fully.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] brockyneo:

Not sure that post was necessary. Or this one :p:
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] knightnz:
It's remapped at a hardware level, it's essentially the same as a hard drive does except hard-drives intentionally have a "reserved" area for bad sectors to remap data to and an "acceptable" standard number of errors, so any given drive will develop errors before any start going up in low-level scans. As soon as that starts happening, it's a good sign the drive is on the way out.

afaik nand's don't have "reserved" areas for remapping, so bad blocks just get remapped to other "free" areas, and the total amount of writable space reduces by the amount of remapped blocks.

About the only way you can tell is by hooking the hardware up to a JTAG unit, or by formatting the partition whilst it's unmounted (flash erase /dev/mtdxxx).

You could also try the nanddump command, not for the faint of heart though. (Edit: And doesn't work on the Note, no mtd devices available to dump from?)

You could check everything while the device is in "Download" mode, but you'd still need a function to do it (could probably be done in Heimdall if implemented)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] copperdawgnc:
So the reported size of the drive should give a clue to how many bad blocks we have?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] golfinggino:
ok i have read through the posts i just want to make sure i have it correct - i am currently running themidteam 1.1

this is what i plan to do:

pc odin the rooted kj1 gingerbread rom

then flash the cm9 zip and gapps zip

is this correct ?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] knightnz:
Assuming the size is a known constant for a given partitioning scheme, then that'd make sense.

The Android version of df isn't particularly helpful in this regard though.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] copperdawgnc:
Sounds correct not sure what the kj1 rom. Is but if ifs a gb rom. You can flash with PC Odin then its good to go.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] :
Curious: is there a way to extract the kernel from this CM9 rom for use in other AOSP roms? I figure CM9 is AOSP so why not try it out as opposed to letting all of those hours put into all of those repack-based roms go to waste?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] knightnz:
Just extract the zimage from the .zip and flash it. Don't expect it to work though. CM9 isn't strictly speaking AOSP.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] :
there isn't a zImage in the zip. I see a boot.img, I assume that has the kernel in it/is the kernel but I don't really know what to do with it. Does CM9 just handle kernels completely differently then?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] rlaw:
Weird issue I'm encountering with my phone's wifi.

I use a modified nvram_net.txt_semcove with American channel list so I can connect to my router's 5ghz frequency.

I've noticed sometimes though that my phone will lose this connection and default to my 2.4ghz and when this happens, I am no longer able to connect or detect the 5ghz frequency.

I always have to turn wifi on/off, disconnect from 2.4ghz and/or hit forget other network in order for scan to appear with 5ghz again.

Here is logcat.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Jesse Jackson:
Drop that boot image in one of the other "aosp" roms. I'd be very surprised if it works.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] :
exactly my point, why would I do that
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] rlaw:
So make a copy of emmc directory to external sdcard and format emmc and any bad sectors would turn up as errors during formatting process..?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Jesse Jackson:
I think you are entirely clueless as to what youre even talking about.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] knightnz:
Hmm, guess that's part of the "new" partitioning support. Flashing it as a partition rather than as a kernel?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] ryn888:
I dont Planner and Spen apps in this rom when i installed it. Please put the spen and planner...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] :
I think a .img file is a partition image and a zImage file is the kernel machine code and that swapping one out for the other would be a stupid move. I could, of course, be mistaken.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] knightnz:
If it works for block devices like that. You'd need to wipe /dev/block/mmcblk1p1 as that's the emmc partition. You'll probably need to run a manual format from within Android afterwards to get it to behave properly again.

You could also run;

e2fsck -v -c /dev/block/mmc.....

But that'll only work on ext formatted partitions. If I run it on mmcblk0p7 (the /cache partition) I get;

It does rely on the "badblocks" function to do the badblock search, which doesn't exist on the system so it won't actually search for new blocks, just list existing ones.

Getting pretty OT now - might need a new thread for "How to list bad blocks".

---------- Post added at 01:54 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:48 PM ----------

If you need Samsung proprietary apps, then use their firmware. They will never be available in CM9, plus there's plenty of similar alternatives.

Also, search is your friend.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] rlaw:
Is this the method you'd recommend to test for bad blocks?

And eh, it's general section. Don't think we're straying too far off the path.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] ryn888:
Okay my friends... That is also the reason why i revert back to Gingerbread. Its because no Planner and Spen? That is also the main function of Galaxy Note SPEN and Planner. Thanks guys...

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] benthian89:
dude, stick back to your TouchWiz Roms and stop whining when you know nuts
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] knightnz:
I recommend nothing :) I haven't looked at this sort of thing in years, and never on Android.

I'm sure there's a better way of doing it, I just haven't come across anything. Ideally it's a function that would be done from Download mode as you've got unmounted access to the whole system, but that's totally beyond my ken as to how that'd work.

I'll have a tinker though.

Hello,

First, great job on CM9 for GNote, really love it ! But... I encounter a little problem with playing full HD movies with HW decoder (I'm mainly using MX Player but problem occurs with Dice Player).

I have issues with :

MKV Container (~8Gb)

H264 - MPEG-4 AVC (part10) (avc1) @ 1920x1040

DTS Audio (6ch)

*SPLITTED* with mkvmerke in order to be transferred (to match with FAT32 fs requirements)

All the mess seems to happen during the split, I tried with another smaller MKV which fits on FAT32 fs, played with HW decoder flawlessly, split it > nah nah, doesn't work.

So here is my point : would it be possible to add support for other, more convenient, filesystems, such as ext3/4 (please :p) or maybe NTFS (via FUSE & ntfs-3g maybe, but I prefer ext3/4) ? I really would like to play these movies on my Note.

Or maybe you have a method to split big files without messing up with HW decoder ?

Thanks a lot.

(PS : No, it's not related to the .bin we can read in "Known issues")
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] :
I had that same problem so I removed the line in the perl script that checked the boot.img and killed the process reporting "android magic not found" and it still failed to split (obvs)

my guess is that the changes they made to the partition layout for this rom (I don't know if it's CM9 standard or what) deviate from the usual android standard that split_bootimg recognizes. our best bet would be to build the CM9 kernel from source.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] anilisanil:
@ the guys who want the zimage of this ROM-

Use HC-Ktool.

It will dump the zimage to your internal SD.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] :
Thanks man, worked like a charm!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] beerbong:
I know this post won't be very helpful, just wanted you to know that i have had my first SOD in CM9 today in the morning (second SOD for me while i'm on ICS).

The alarm sounded at 6 AM but i could not turn it off cause the screen wasn't responding (completely black). Long pressing power button rebooted the phone and everything is working now.

I was on v4 with LP6 modem. Now i'm on v6.

This is not a reason for not continuing testing CM9. I know it is/will be the best rom for our notes.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] anilisanil:
Hmmmm, me too having SODs. Once during a call and twice while not using the phone.

SOD while calling was when using the LB2 modem.

I then changed to LP6 and had two SODs. So now on LP5, which is stable so far!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] :
hahaha look what I did

video preview in camera, video playback and USB don't work, but pushing the mfc_fw.bin fixed USB

it still records videos properly even if it won't play them back

it even shows small snippets of video preview when switching from front to back camera for some reason? I might try a different camera.apk

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] chasmodo:
Well done.:)

So it can be flashed on repack Roms. How did you do it, using Mobile Odin?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] :
oh god no! that would mean I would have had to flash a bad kernel!

Just use astro file explorer to go inside the stunner update.zip on your SD card before you flash it and delete the bad kernel, then put the CM9 kernel we extracted with kTool in its place. Flash the stunner.zip, no risk of bad kernel damage!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] chasmodo:
Well, MO uses its own kernel for flashing purposes, but I guess yours was a safer way to do it.

(I thought you restored a Stunner backup)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] :
The way it behaves when you flash a kernel with it, I actually don't think it uses its own kernel when flashing kernels? definitely when flashing modems but not sure about kernels. and also, I think it has to flash its own flash kernel to your emmc using the phone's kernel before flashing whatever you tell it to so that could be iffy. Entropy has advised to be wary of using mobile odin on leaked kernels.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] chasmodo:
I don't know much about MO flashing procedure, but I have always relied

on this post.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] :

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] SnakeManJayd:
So, just to check and save myself half an hour...

v6 is just v5 with the extra file to fix video playback?

Or are there other new features?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] XpLoDWilD:
Sorry if you thought I was being rude - it's a common attitude to most rom developers : we only believe what we see. I don't run Facebook on my phones so I can't test myself, so the only way I can check if it can be fixed is with a logcat.

Just run: adb logcat > logcat.log

in a terminal.

Or use an app from the Play Store, just search Logcat.

By the way, just bought an MHL cable thanks to clubtech. USB OTG cable should arrive wednesday, and MHL either thursday or friday.

It doesn't really matter (and it would be a lot easier for you to use the Abyssnote 4.2 kernel to flash CM9) but I would (and did) use LC1 only because I take more comfort in flashing the PDA, modem and CSC files all at once haha

You'll still need to install CWM after flashing GB, see Dr. Ketan's post for instructions

after you're in CM9, the modem you use is up to you, but I would recommend flashing your modem in mobile odin as it is probable that doing so saves you from SODs
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] anilisanil:
Why do you want a better ROM among the rooted GB ROMs if you anyway want to flash CM9. What kernel suggestions?

I am curious. No, seriously.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] chasmodo:
Of course it doesn't matter which rooted GB Rom one uses as a springboard to CM9.

Just make sure it has proper root and a working CWMR.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] jbounours:
Flashed #6 over #4. All OK for now.

Didn't have any SOD for ages (early imilka builds) using LB2 modem.

Next build would ne awesome with speakerphone and boot animation fixed :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] anilisanil:
CM9 releases are not incremental. Meaning each release is a complete, independent release. So you could directly flash V6 or if you read this a bit late than our developer could release a new version then Vx. Where X is an integer >6.

As for bootanimation cm uses a resolution of 1280x720 standard---so once they make for higher resolutions compatible we will see a fit to screen version too.

How to change :

I do the follow

You can switch the mountpoints at systemsettings->storage->storage configuration.

Switching to "use extended internal storage" has the following result:

/mnt/emmc = external sdcard

/mnt/sdcard = internal storage

"use extended internal storage" is the default setting!

Do a reboot after switching, otherwise the setting doesn't get applied!!!
