I had already installed the app "ntfs mounter" from the market, prior to installing v12.5oc. What I can say, is that under v12.5oc (and lrk rom and "ntfs mounter"), my Note reads AND writes lightning fast and reliably (for the moment) on a 32Gb flash disk.

It's true that under ICS, voodoo louder does not add much (+3dB maxi). Under GB, it added an impressive +11dB, so "I could not live without it". Having said that, I still value these +3dB in ICS, but if our kernel Master judges it is too dangerous/annoying for a proper kernel development, I'm sure he knows what he's talking about!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] Stepp:
Gavin just to know. I assume the new voltage tables are lower compared to the old ones. Is possible for you to post them ?

Thx
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] thering1975:
In all fairness supercurio himself said voodoo louder was less relevant on ics hence why it took a while to be updated originally.

Semi bricked my note

I've just installed 12.5OC and semi bricked my note. I've managed to recover it using PCODIN, but now I have the dreaded yellow triangle. I have the USB jig so I'll be working on removing that later tonight.

Not sure what caused it?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] emze:
use triangle away
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] g.lewarne:
Then it isnt semi bricked.

Also there is nothing "dreaded" about the yellow triangle. it is an normal function

Out of interest what made you think it was bricked? Because it didnt boot? did you flash the oc or std version?

Uninformed comments like this only serve to scaremonger and confuse the already confused masses:rolleyes:
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] joyo22:
Gavin, I must say yours is the best kernel I've ever flashed on my Note. Congrats.

PS: I'm really happy. Our country won a gold medal today on BMX!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] Dr Nicky:
I was unable to to bring the note up into anything other than download mode. The note gave all the appearance that it was dead. No Samsung logo, nothing. I had to work on the note with no screen display, whatever you want to call it, informed or uninformed, to me that is a semi brick.

The intention was not to scaremonger but to share my experience with others, if I wanted to scaremonger I would have flagged up all kinds of warnings. I know that s##t happens and on this occasion it happened to me.

I flashed the OC version on a class B board
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] dr.ketan:
Now my notification shows all 11 toggle on same screen(previously max 8) i marked after. 12.5 v. Anyway if it is due to kernel, that is nice.. I like it. :)

Thanx gavin again for nice kernel.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] MikeFRG:
pls remove it!!!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] g.lewarne:
And how did you flash it?

It is impossible to brick a note just flashing something. the risk occurs if a partition is Wiped. and on this kernel every possible safeguard is in place to prevent that. A NON BOOT is not a brick...your phone simply could not handle the now lower voltages in the oc kernel. in fact the only reported non boot B phone on the new tables. that is bad luck but not particurlarly suprising

I just don't understand why people still need that Voodoo louder thing where the NOTE have the Beats Audio MOD.

Edit: Back to Tapatalk 2.2.4 solved the problem for me - on kernel v12.3 and on kernel 12.5 OC

Hi

I have a strange effect with CleaNote v5 and kernel 12.5 OC and Tapatalk 2.2.6

If I start Tapatalk a couple of times and try than to open one of the forums, the application freezes - internet activity is still visible - and after a while the Note is making a restart but without asking for the sim pin again.

The setting for the kernel was

200-1400MHz

pegasusq

noop

set by SetCPU

I started to use the OC versions with v11 and so far I never had problems (I do not need the 1600MHz of the CPU but like the performance boost from the faster GPU clock speed).

I flashed back than CleaNote v5 to get a clean start and kernel v12.3 back.

On this kernel - v12.3 - the phone is not crashing any more and making a reboot, just if I start Tapatalk a couple of times like described before, Tapatalk is freezing and after a while (maybe arround 30-45s) I am getting a meassage from the Task Manager that Tapatalk was stopped and I can continou using the Note.

So far this problem is only showing up in Tapatalk in no other application.

I tried to wipe cache and dalvik - I installed Tapatalk back from TB - no change.

Best regards,

dingolino

Dr Nicky, I've the same problem. the phone got stuck while I wa using it, I turned it off and it got stuck on the logo. I tried to go into recovery to use Jboid script and flash v12 but during jbroid script the phone got stuck again. Turned it off and nothing else, dead.

No screen, no download or recovery. It seems to me your same problem.

How did u manage to go into download mode? I tried to use Odin on windows and keep pushing volume down home and power but nothing...

Plaese help
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] dr.ketan:
If no recovery or download then only jig can be helpful.

Once remove battery for few min n re insert and try if you get download mode

Otherwise manage for jig

How do you flash the kernel?

I recommend not to use CWM even it is safe and many people use it without a problem. But all people who had a problem used it to flash.

Either use .tar with Odin or zIamge with Mobile Odin or HC-kTool.

For example after you flash kernel with HC-kTool, you can still use your phone. New kernel become active after you reboot :)

That gives me confidence :):)

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] maximo12345:
I flashed like all the other using CWM, and everything was fine for hours. The at 1% battery it got stuck and all the stuff i wrote before happened.

Now I have black screen but the strange thing is that touching the phone behind under the camera shutter is hot, as it is when I use it.

That's why I'm asking how to get into download mode even I don't see anything on the screen... otherwise I fear it's really broken...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] androiadicted:
1%? Man charge it first.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] Ottschke:
I once had a similar problem. The reason in my case was missing power in my battery. It happened because I had flashed many different ROMs and the display of the percentage of battery load was incorrect. So I thought it to be more than 30%, but while flashing the battery was getting empty in the CWM. I had nothing. No display. No CWM. No download-mode. Nothing. So that's what I recalled at Dr. Ketans post.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] maximo12345:
I'm chargin it for at least 30 minutes, it's getting hot behind, but doesn't work.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] dr.ketan:
Manage another battery, or get it charged with other source. B'coz without confirming battery is charged nothing is diagnostic.

@maximo12345

what rom you used when you flashed??

does you used the CWM.zip or the original recovery mode from samsung?

if yes, that was the problem...you should flash this kernel via pc odin, if come from original rom and kernel..

Similar problem to me with fb and browser.

My solution so far as it seems was to...

Stop the apps that produce the problem

Clear cache and data of those apps

Reboot into recovery

Wipe cache and dalvik

Reboot

Also in my build prop i ve notice that the heap start size was 64 so i ve change it to 128.

After reboot i leave it to settle for a while (10 min) and start the apps.

No problem so far

If you re on cleanote dont worry about the heapsize as Gavin have it already at 128 starting point.

Also i recommend to leave your device to discharge until under 5% switch it off and charge it in off condition til full. After that get into recovery and wipe battery stats.

I m 100% sure that when you get the freeze you note s display in the upper point gets hot and on reboot you loose 3-6% of your battery.....

Also a small feedback for 12.5.

Always when i use the device while i charge it i d always high temp.

With latest version no temp at all.

Can you boot into recovery ? If yes and If you flashed from a safe kernel (like Notecore, Speedmod etc), do a factory reset i.e. wipe data. Then reinstall the whole ROM and any kernel you like. Has happened to me lots over the past few days. I finally formatted my internal memory and things have been better. *crosses fingers*

Edit: I see that you can't even boot into recovery. Very high chance that your battery is dead. Charge for a couple of hours and then try.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] ramabg:
Do you think It is safe to flash to Cyanogenmod from stock ROM with this kernel ? Since this kernel have no brickbug issue I think It is safe.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] maximo12345:
I've left the phone in charge for an hour, it's hot behind. It doesn't turn on, nor recovery or download.

My rom was kingdroid 7.1 with note kernel 12.5 OC, I used it for for hours with no problems. (flashed it via CWM)

I repeat, i was with 1% battery, the phone didn't turn off but got stuck with the screen on and I forced it off. Once it was on I saw the logo but it didnt't boot.

So I boot in recovery and flashed Jbroid script cause I wanted to go back to 12 OC, but jbroid stopped at the begging when I could read "preparing your device" and didn't go on. So I turned the phone off and poof, dead.

I've read that probably even if I don't see anything the phone works so I would like to go into download to flash a GB rom and recover it.

Can someone help me or I need to take it for Samsung assistance?

thanks
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] ardicli2000:
Try to get into download mode when the battery is OUT.

Connect the phone to PC with USB cable. Push the tree button combo at least 30 seconds.

If nothing happesn than disconnect the usb plug in battery. Try again.

Then you can try again when the cable is connected as well as battery is on.

Just try to discharge all of the phone's electronics, chips, etc.

Even if it is off it controls lots of things. Like charging.

AMybe when the phone is all out of electricity it can reboot properly.

Besides your battery could be broken. IF this is the case then your phone will not reboot at all :)

I have tried the NTFS loading of a USB flash after installation of the paragon app from market (as mentioned earlier) and it is working fine.

great..

However, if the NTFS support is built in, why do we need a separate app to mount the NTFS partition manually?

Shouldn't the usb NTFS loading happen automatically once the USB is plugged in and mounted under sdcard/usbStorage/uXXXXX

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] g.lewarne:
i think he said at some point his battery was down to like 1% or something. Having never used any kernel cleaning script (what does this even do as no kernel i now of puts anything other than superuser on the phone storage?)

If it was out of claibration and battery went below ciritical level, i expect the batteries on board management chip might be out of whack. Try leaving it on charge, a proper charger, overnight

The very fact that every reported brick happens immediately following a wipe operation in unfixed recoveries and not after several hours of use is indicative of some sort of battery issue

EDIT:

another thought - I wonder if, when the phone is in CWM recovery (he was flashing kernel cleaning script at the time) it somehow bypasses the batteries on-board management and allows a discharge to the point that the battery cannot charge any more?

definately leave it in charger overnight let us know

EDIT2:

do the kernel cleaning scripts wipe battery stats?

EDIT3:

Mobile ODIN, Chainfire and others all reccommend having at least 50% charge during any flash, evidently for reasons like this

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] leojab:
Yes, I have tried with a usb flash drive formatted with FAT32 and it works fine on your GL Notecore v12.5. Also, the NTFS usb flash drive works fine when an external app called paragon was installed so I do not think power is an issue. I used to same flash drive earlier when it was FAT32 formatted and it had worked fine as is now with other FAT32 usb flash drives.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] g.lewarne:
just wait for v13 :D

so far, what i have been playing with is extremely responsive (12.8), and I made some changes to the mali driver makefile that so far seem to have reduced battery consumption (and heat) even further without loss of any performance.

And, im very interested in what these linaro optimisations might do, but damn its taking an age to compile the thing, and more than likely it wont work first time :silly:

you guys are going to get a beta tomorrow one way or the other :good:

If anyone is interested, im playing around with the various -o -o3 -o2 -os and other more specific compiler optimisations when running the make command on the source (actually im modifying the makefile but whatever its the same difference)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] Dr Nicky:
Because the previous kernel I used was ver 12 and in the about section it tells you the board type.

I had to a stock flash using PC ODIN. The point was my screen was dead after flashing 12.5 OC and it was just luck ( well more hope) that it was still communicating with the PC, but only when I placed it in download mode and still with no screen display. Just as a side note the battery was at 100%. I only flash with a full battery.

I don't know why all the heat, I was only reporting what happened to me. Maybe the real lesson learnt hear it to just keep my mouth shut and not pass on to the developer what I experienced.

Enough said and I'll leave it at that.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] g.lewarne:
There was no "heat" we were asking you questions and you did not answer them! how can anyone help without knowing all the facts? you were able to explain it just then so why not in your first report of the issue?

Understand things from our perspective....we get a lot of posts in this thread complaining about this or that but withiut giving us the information we need to provide assistance. it gets tiresome and the point arrives at which patience is lost. if you had explained fully (by answering our question "how did you flash" you would have a received a prompt and polite answer.;)

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] hkgrob:

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] LowDef:
May be it helps if you are using non-glossy protection film, change to the glossy film and you will earn some extra brightness over the non-glossy type. The result is that you would use dimmer screen brightness at the same eye preferable (turn off auto-brightness). It helps reduce battery drain very effectively.
