[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Borat38:
I've just successfully flashed CM9 (see sig), but am having doubts about using CM9 long term bec of its issues. Now I'm eyeing 9000lang ROM. A few questions:

a) this 9000lang ROM, does this have the same issues with the Note camera? (you know, the one that requires flashing a patch in CWM Recovery)

b) What about apps that are purchased from Google Play Store? Does 9000lang also refuse to install to the internal 32Gb SD card?

c) why is Titanium Backup not working with CM9? (read that somewhere in the first few pages, the guys suggested using Nandroid backup instead, but that's too much to do for just backing up new data and new apps) Any solution to that problem? I love my TB Pro, it takes care of many backend updating and settings-saving functions that I would otherwise have to do manually

Lastly, I saw an option to install apps to internal SD on CWM9: Settings>Storage>click Menu on touch panel = Storage configuration>click the box that says "Use internal storage" which indicates that the internal SD card will be the main storage for apps and media <--or is this not working with Google Play Store?

Hi guys,

I have a Samsung Galaxy Note, Korean model SHV-E160S.

I use it in South Korea but when I went home to a local cell provider, they tried their SIM in the phone but no networks popped up.

Before I left to Canada, I was told the Galaxy series are unlocked.

Any ideas why it wont work? Is there a setting I should use in the phone settings??

Thanks!!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] darkspr1te:
AFAIK they are all unlocked, we have had one one other with same issue who has not replied to any of our questions so we never knew if the issue was resolved. i would try a factory reset first, clear out any setting left over from korean sim. does your baseband show up in settings ? have you tried other sim cards, can you screen shot so we can see what screen looks like when not working ?

darkspr1te
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] markmessier8888:
Hi and thx for the reply!

My baseband is SHV-E160S.EK24.1917.ST

Does this tell anything? Thx
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] darkspr1te:
It only helps when its with the other information/questions I asked. Base band on its own is no use. We need a screen shot showing no function or errors, we need to know if you tried another Sim in case yours is faulty or we kneed to if that Sim work in another phone. Has it always been on this Baseband ?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] markmessier8888:
Sadly, Im back in Korea and cant test it again

I have only ever used the one Korean SIM card which has always worked flawlessly in Korea.

When I went to Canada, I used a working SIM from a clerk who took hers out and inserted into the Note.

It picked up no signal.

Does a rooted phone make any difference? Mine is rooted

Shv-e160l stable rom inquiry

Hi Guys/Sirs.

First of all, thank you for the hardworking contributors here in XDA Korean Note 1 subforums/threads. I have read all 5 important threads here, in the last 2 days.

I just bought a second hand Korean Note 1, from my korean brother-in-law. I was expecting a GT-N7000 but to my surprise he sold me an SHV-E160L.

Model number: SHV-E160L

Android Version: 4.0.4

Baseband version: E160L.FH02.1442.LT

Kernel Version: 3.0.8-966093

se.infra@SEP-68 #1

SMP PREEMPT Fri Aug 24 18:36:50 KST 2012

Build Number: IMM76D.UH24

Since I got this already with these settings, and found a SuperUser app in My Applications, I assumed that this has already been rooted. I want to confirm if it already is, since I still have lots of bloatware in my current system. Since I am a rooting virgin, I do not know how to do this, but I want to know how.

I have read the important E160L posts as well as the basics requirements and process of updating, rooting, flashing, and recovery. I still have the SMS problem but I might be able to fix it by setting my mobile number on an iPhone 4S or 5 hopefully.

But my real inquiry is on being able to flash a stable and updated ICS ROM to my Korean Note1. I would like to ask advice from you sirs whether I still need to do it or is my current ROM already stable? Would the 9000lang ROM be a better ROM for me (considering it has no bloatware and fixed SMS)? I only want to maximize the power (especially the CPU and RAM) of my Korean Note1.

I thank all incoming help in advance. All comments will be greatly appreciated.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] darkspr1te:
Welcome to owning a note, they are fun and use full devices.

My recommendation is use the 9000lang firmware, reset device to factory then install, it's solved most of my issues and I've been running the same install for a couple of month now. I did not need to do the iPhone save SMS center hack myself but some users have said it's needed. The 9000lang fw is stable, fast and has some s3/note 2 features you will enjoy, only a couple of Korean based issues like calendar dates are still Korean but over all I don't notice that Christmas was in Korean.

Also with same fw you can use tegrak over/under clock, battery power seems good for me and as I now use the device as a full computer I can say that a spare battery will be handy only sometimes.

Enjoy

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Metzdroid:
Hi darkspr1te,

Thank you very much for the detailed recommendation. I already did an iPhone fix for my SMS sending issue and it is now currently working.

I just downloaded 900lang fw (593.6mb file). Will I need to do the full rooting and flashing process as indicated in the first post on this thread?

And finally, should I still do a CWM recovery after flashing 9000lang? What Odin version number is best to use? Thank you very much and more power to this group.

Please help with sending sms on cm9

[SHV-E160S]

My Device is SHV-E160S

I have the same problem can't send sms with CM9. I tried all the things mentioned in thread:

1. Edited "my number" put international version with "+".

2. Setup my APN

3. Tried to use go sms pro and handcent sms didn't work either. I receive messages properly but can't send them get error "Message not sent"

There is something strange about SMSC editing. For CM9 I use *#*#4636#*#* and choose "Phone Information" to access SMSC update. Whatever I update there it doesn't record. Whenever I press refresh I get this strange number combination "+37379499011",145 and my provider's number is just +37379499011 without quotes and 145 at the end. If I try to update with correct number it gives me "update error".

Please help I can't send sms at all in CM9.

P. S. If I rollback to UH-24 stock sms app sends sms easily with 80 chars limit.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] darkspr1te:
Yes, I provided a few versions of recovery, TeamWIn, CWM and Black Box, CWM is my recommendation on on the basis that's it's the most tested , Team Win is touch is good but backup's are not portable across devices,

I cannot off hand remember if i needed root to use it, it kinda just worked right without. I think, Like i said it's stable.

build number

is it normal to see chinese characters on my build number after i flashed the 9000lang ROM?

it was UH24 before i flashed the 9000lang..

---------- Post added at 12:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:59 AM ----------

my phone went halfbricked when i made some tweaks using pimp my rom, and when i was able to go to recovery mode, i made a full wipe of my sd card, which erased all the apps and data on my phone.. i flashed the 9000lang rom again, and to my amazement, the data connection worked already.. i have an H+ signal on my phone using SMART sim. (coz im from Phils also..)

so maybe you need to full wipe your phone and flashed 9000lang again to be able to make WCDMA working for you my friend..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] darkspr1te:
Yes its normal to see korean text after a flash/wipe, in 9000lang just click the text bar at top left and scroll to english.

it's only caused during a factory reset/cache wipe.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] maestrobarako:
what i meant sir is that in my about phone settings, all other informations are in english except for the BUILD number which is in chinese character.. do you also have this chinese characters on your about phone-> build number?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] darkspr1te:
Yes, that's because the dev wrote it in his build Id, its a value that can be anything the dev wants to assign as his build id, there are tools out there to edit system props if it bugs you or you could copy paste to Google translate and rewrite it in English.

Hope that helps.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] maestrobarako:
yeah..its a relief to hear that from you sir.. BTW, the international note has already custom JB rom 4.2.1... how about for us Korean note owners? when can we get a taste of that JB rom? are there any progress in KOXDA Roms nowadays?

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] darkspr1te:
Root is needed for the 9000lang ROM and for a link did you try Google , I have posted a few links of it myself. Yes 160 char SMS is there.

---------- Post added at 08:32 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:24 PM ----------

Sadly no jb or cm10 for us yet, I've spent my dev time on recovery side so I've not dev'ed into jb/cm10 , I did do my monthly check in with the Asian dev sites and no steps up yet, most note 1 devs(mostly Asian devs for our devices) jumped boat to note 2, that leaves only a few hard core,

good news is more back end tools are in the works, tools like this will make tweaks via GUI easier.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] maestrobarako:
you CAN'T flash AT&T rom to your 160L sir, it will give yo headache if you do so.. better flash it with 9000lang rom coz this solved all the problems like sms on our 160L.. links can be found on this thread, try the 28th and 29th page, darksprite posted it there.. but before you do, you must have CWM recovery and tegrac to able to flash this rom.. link also is provided for the superuser signed zip for you to root your device after flashing the 9000lang rom.. hope this helps you.. BTW, im from the Phils too..:D

Have korean galaxy note with custom rom wich changes my device into i717

Me and my wife bought korean galaxy note last month and my wife wanted me to extend her message limit to 160 or higher and I almost crashed her phone by following some tutorials. simply I failed. so i decided to go to mobile center and asked for help.. finally I found a person who usually do iphone jailbreak and android root. he is not official developer or worker but he worked on my wife's phone for 1 hour and he installed some kind of gingerbread version which has chinese application in it. and it has 160 message limit and no korean apps. in fact it costs me 20$ and he would never tell me how he did that. later on I followed rootgalaxynote tutorial and deleted those chinese apps. my wife is now happy but I actually tried to upgrade it to ICS and I have no solution till now.

I attached the screen capture of my two device.... on the bottom of the image there is a web page which is totally chinese and if someone can handle to translate and make up an english tutorial from it, I would appreciate.

I prefer this chinese version rather than korean version. someone please make a tutorial how to install this chinese rom.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] red_hanks:
I was able to find a solution for this 80 characters SMS issue, FINALLY!

Here's what I did (without deleting anything on the phone or changing any settings):

Note is using a micro SIM, so I asked a friend of mine if I can barrow his iPhone 4s. Reason: On Note there is no option to alter or set the "My Number" on the SIM. I have tried some apps from Google Play but it doesn't work. On iPhone 4s, there is an option to set the "My Number" on your micro SIM (settings>phone>my number). After setting my own number to the micro SIM [should be in international format ie. + (country code) (area code) (phone number) ] I installed handcent SMS and set it as the default SMS/MMS app on the phone and I was able to send sms with "unlimited" characters. Please take note that if you are going to customized the settings of the app (handcent) never check or tick the option " If you are using samsung phone and can't send..." that is under settings>send message settings. Please post it here if works for you.

who said there's no custom rom for shv e160s? :D

look on this site; http://bbs.wpcnn.com/thread-25655-1-1.html

and http://blog.sdhjt.org/

...as I can see, there are few "customized" roms for shv e 160 s, even with SMS correction (for 160 characters), but here we have another one little problem; somebody knows the korean langauge and letters? :D :D :D

any volunteers for translating? I'm interested in installation this custom rom, but I'm not sure if will be on phone langauge option for ENGLISH or croatian menus and other stuff navigating through phone...

heeeelp please people!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] red_hanks:
Tried to download those custom ROMs but it took decades before I can completely have them so I stopped trying. Anyone was able to download it and wants to share it?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] TurboldDulamragchaa:
Finally made it custom rom with any other nasty apps

I actually visited the website that u (malac20) mentioned and I made a research on it about 10 hours. I also downloaded the e160s....tar file which took me long enough to take a good nap. and then I registered on that chinese web in order to get password for the zip file and I went through every explanation in chinese using google translate to read.

The most important thing is after I installed this custom rom my SHW-E160K turned out to be the international version of galaxy note almost the same. there is no bloatware app and I have no problem with message limit which is continues SMS with 160 letter. Now I am downloading my apps and I have no problem so far...

This is what I did..

1) downloaded zip file named : EROM-E160S.[eRuiZhi.com].[Sdhjt.ORG].[V3] (you can just google this and download it)

2) extracted zip file PASS : *********** (Sorry all, I was notified to hide the password as a member. Please visit the source web)

3) there is .tar file which is the only thing that I used from the downloaded zip

4) rebooted my galaxy note into download mode

5) Installed .tar mode using ODIN V1.85

That's all.... Sorry for my english I am not native speaker as you can see ^^
