No multi window

Hey

i did the firmware over kies it took about a half hour and its cool but no multiwindow. I saw on the samobile site, there are two releases of the JB firmware, wonder if the "default" release has multiwindow?

Root on ATT JB update

Hello guys. What is the best SuperSU version to use to roor the Galaxy Note on the newly released JB? Most of the guides refer to ICS and don't know if it's the same procedure for JB.

Thanks.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] MechaGen:
Superuser by ClockworkMod. It's now the default SU in CyanogenMod largely due to it being open source (nothing to hide). Holo themed and stable.

Multi-view is a gimmick for me. Don't really need it.

Battery life actually has been better for me, and it is a lot less laggier than ICS. I cannot be happier about the update.

First, there are many variants of Galaxy Note. It was never specific to i717. And indeed, international versions of Note did get JB, way before i717 did.

In any case, we now have JB.

My point is that even if Samsung never updates i717 to JB, they are not doing anything wrong. I am just tired of people complaining about how they have been screwed by Samsung/carriers.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Jamesyboy:
In 99 percent of cases-- this is true. However, we had a rare 2 year window-- the Android Update Alliance was a public promise, therefore, Samsung had a responsibility to update phones over the past two years. And they had a fiduciary responsibility to avoid a class action, or a mass of small claims suits by updating.

I hope people take the time to learn from this update cycle. Most companies have certain tells we can analyze - - like the Rogers update page, the availability of a small update before the big one... The conversation i posted about, etc... These are small things we can look at and decide to analyze. Most of the time, manufacturers are completely aware of cuatomer sentiment as well, and theyll try to accommodate people. Since we had JB on a couple devices with a similar platform, it was a pretty cheap extra mile to go to get it to us.

The sum of behaviors said it was coming, but i suppose the hype is something we can expect with any and every release having to do with Android.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jpeg42:
You can disable the startup sound if you have root. In Root explorer go to:

/system/media/audio/ui/

There should be a file called PowerOn.ogg

Rename that to something like PowerOn.ogg.bak or delete it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] lovehoshi:
Currently im rooted stock and would like to update to JB. Can I just update via Kies over root?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] rsfinsrq:
Here is the stock bootanimation and poweron.ogg files from the N7000 intl JB Note. It's the glowing blue Samsung oval animation (Like the Note2). This can be used on stock rooted rom. Just copy the qmg files into system/media and set permissions (rw-r--r--). Copy the poweron file into system/media/audio/ui and set the same permissions.

I have root (Titanium works) and tried to change the file name but it didn't work. I tried with ES Explorer.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ddochi11:
"Android Update Alliance" was something Google wanted to push, but it went nowhere. Do a quick search and you will see that it was a failed attempt. And even if Google wanted to really keep this "promise", they cannot force the same policy on manufacturers and carriers. Samsung and carriers are NOT obligated to do anything.

And it was 18 months, not 2 years.

- http://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2012/06/what-happened-to-the-android-update-alliance/

At last year's Google I/O, the company announced the Android Update Alliance, an initiative through which Google would work with its partners to ensure that Android phones and tablets would receive updates for at least 18 months after their introduction.

And what did we really learn from this update cycle? Update takes super long, if we ever get one. And, it is damn unlikely that we will get another. And we get our hopes up with all the rumours and hearsays. Rogers/Telus update pages have been pushing back the date for several months. It is not a reliable source of upcoming update.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jpeg42:
Didn't work, like you renamed the file and still get the sound? Or did it not let you rename the file? You need to be sure to change permissions on the directory to R/W so you can rename the file.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] lanwarrior:
I use ES Explorer and I tried to rename the file from PowerOn.ogg to PowerOn.bak, and nothing happened - the change failed.

I tried to change the permission and I got the prompt that "Change failed".

I downloaded the free version of Root Explorer and the root folder ("/") is READ-ONLY.

I am not sure what happened. I know I have root because all root apps works. I.e. SuperSU, Titanium Backup, etc.

Any suggestions?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jpeg42:
I could be wrong, but I think the free version of Root Explorer (just called Explorer) doesn't let you into the system directory. You have to pay the 4 bone to get that functionality (and it is well worth it). I don't have experience with ES Explorer, sorry. But it sounds like it is not giving you the correct permissions to the directory to edit the file.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] lanwarrior:
Thanks for the tips! I dig deeper in ES Explorer and yes, I HAVE to mount the /system folder in R/W mode (it was in R/O). Now I can change the file. :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] SKyRocKeting727:
Nope. If you update over Kies, you will need to unroot first, then update over Kies, then root it. Or you can always just flash a stock JB rom from the developer threads.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] rsfinsrq:
You can use the firmware upgrade and initialization or emergency firmware recovery options under the tools menu in Kies. This will restore your Note to the latest version 4.1.2 (UCMD3) regardless if you are rooted or not. It will wipe your system partition so you will loose root. I believe if your system is modified (Root, recovery, etc.) it wipes all partitions including data. Either way you end up with total stock. I have used this several times coming from a rooted rom with custom recovery. Just have to start all over afterwards.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] prettedda:
Do not need to unroot first to update over Kies but you will loose root. Here's what to do.

1) Boot your note into download mode

2) Connect your Note to the laptop with factory USB cable

2) Launch Kies on your desktop (full version)

4) Choose Tools, Firmware upgrade & initialization

a) While in download mode, pull battery and enter the S/N & model name (ALL CAPS!!)

b) It will prompt to initialize to original settings. Click "YES"

c) It will prompt to initialize the latest version. Click "YES"

d) It will download the firmware upgrade components (DO NOT DISCONNECT THE DEVICE!!)

5) It will prompt for firmware upgrade and initialization.

a) Click check box for reading above information

b) Click your choice if you want your information saved on Samsung Kies corporate servers (I choose WITHOUT saving).

Same problem here. I run stock 4.1.2 w/o root and my alternate is Thumb Keyboard. It constantly reverts to the Samsung keyboard.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] littlewierdo:
Settings-Language and input

Make sure that the keyboard you want to use is checked. Then tap on Default above all the keyboards you have installed and change to the keyboard you want to use.

Personally, I use Better Keyboard, only available from the Amazon Appstore for around $3. Even tho it hasn't been updated in awhile, I really like that the second and third rows expand completely to fit the width of my screen. Why other keyboards don't do this or have an option to do this is beyond me as in my opinion, this is wasted screen space that when used, makes it significantly easier to type than every other keyboard I have tried.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] n11:
I agree with your suggestion but that doesn't work. Installing Thumb Keyboard and setting it as the default keyboard does not hold after rebooting. It constantly reverts to the stock Samsung keyboard.

This works only if and I stress "IF" when you get to Step 4a) Remove battery and enter S/N, Model Name (ALL CAPS) THERE IS AN S/N NUMBER THERE. The Note I have did not have the S/N number and if the phone was rooted you were unable to get the S/N from the device also. You would have to unroot the phone to get the S/N or Update without using KIES.

Can't take credit for this workaround since I read it in another thread...but if you backup app and data for your keyboard with an app like Titanium Backup, then uninstall your 3rd party keyboard and finally restore app and data for the 3rd party keyboard using Titanium Backup, the keyboard will "stick" between reboots. Personally tested and workaround works.

Device memory partitions after upgrade?

Can anyone confirm whether there are still two user partitions after upgrading, and if there should be?

I upgraded via ODIN, and, although I never noticed this before, it looks to me like I have a 1.97GB "Device memory" partition, and a 10.84GB "USB storage" partition. Only problem is: all the apps are installing to the smaller partition, so I'm hitting a wall very quickly with app out of space issues?

Would doing Emergency restore with Kies get rid of that? Is there any other way to get rid of it? All of my other Samsung devices have just one merged partition - but my i717 seems to have two after this upgrade?

(In another thread, one user explained to me that this was just Samsung programming, but none of my other JB devices have this, so I was wondering if anyone was still seeing this on JB on the i717 here?)

The above quote was taken from the end of life link you posted.
