Hi guys! So glad to have found this thread! Well, ive been trying to root my phone. Tried the vids on youtube but cwm doesnt seem to flash. Im running 4.3 official update.

Dunno why but im thinking bec my OS is winxp? Is that supposed to be an issue?

Tried flashing 2 different cwm. Nothing. So far what I have achieved is a fake root. SuperSU is installed but "no binary installed" error message.

Anyway, can i bother any of you near Mandaluyong to get this rooted? Sorry to be frank and straighforward, but after my 3 failed attempts, I dont wanna trust myself doing this. Im afraid to brick my phone, so I am asking if anyone's around Mandaluyong, I can visit you. Lets talk pm.

Noobish question here. My Note 2 LTE is locked on Globe, is it possible to install any custom ROM? :D
[Galaxy Note II General] tipsy13:
Yes it is,just choose the right ROM..careful not to flash n7100 ROMS as these ROMs can lead to soft brick, only use N7105 ROMs.

[Galaxy Note II General] fuchsia2012:
Hello guys!! Im also from ph. Metro manila area. What is your favorite rom in your galaxy note 2? For me, the best rom i used was the dn3 rom (4.4 kitkat). It has note 3 features + s5 features. It also have air command from n3 and ultra power saving mode from the s5. As every other day pass, this rom becomes more stable and ported some new features. So is it worth to upgrade our note 2 to note 3?? I think for me, no. I"ll wait for n4. :) and you, whats your favorite rom?

Reply me guys if you have a better rom for our note 2. Thanks pinoy! :))
[Galaxy Note II General] red_hanks:
Been using OmegaDroid for a long time now. Tried Hurricane but I am planning to switch and flash DN3...
[Galaxy Note II General] fuchsia2012:
You try dn3. Ii think it is the best rom for note 2 right now. Pm me if you need some help because it has some bug. But it can be fix. :)

No word on kitkat update yet?
[Galaxy Note II General] ricky_cuervo:
Hello Guys,

- I just updated my Globe issued Note 2 to 4.3 today.

- Had experienced rooting 4.1.2 but reading through all the tutorials in rooting Note 2 4.3 I find them complicated because of knox.

- With this I'm thinking of flashing back to the stock rom 4.1.2 and rooting it there.

- Hoping that someone can answer my questions below:

1. Can I easily flash back to a stock rom 4.1.2 from a stock 4.3?

2. May I please have the link to a tutorial of rooting a stock 4.3? I just want to be rooted using a stock 4.3.

Thanks in Advance!
[Galaxy Note II General] W@r10ck:
DN3 all the way :D although i only have limited choices for GT-N7105 unlike my previous S3.I think im gonna stick to this for a long time :)
[Galaxy Note II General] jon1011:
Hi guys,

It's been a while since I last posted here. I suppose the DN3 (4.4 Kitkat) you are talking about is a custom rom, right?

---

I have my note 2 bought from kimstore last 2012 and it is from UAE. I have an update available, probably for 4.3.

I did not install it yet as I've been thinking of flashing a 4.3 PH stock rom.

Is anyone there kind enough to provide me the link on where I should start?

Like, what tool should I use, where I could get an official PH stock rom, what the baseband is, etc. TIA! :)

EDIT:

I just realized that I only need to use Odin. lol

Are firmwares really that big?

I'm trying to download the XTE 4.3 version from samsung-updates.com/device/?id=GT-N7100, XTE-N7100XXUEML3-20131219151312.zip

But the file is 1.2GB. Is this legit?
[Galaxy Note II General] jon1011:
I think I already have all that I need.

But I'm a bit confused on which ROM to flash. Is it XTE or XTC?

On samsung-updates.com, XTE is the international version and XTC is for Sun. But sammobile says vice-versa. O_O

Lastly, do I have to make an EFS backup even on flashing stock ROMs?
[Galaxy Note II General] serfreedshaft:

What modem you guys use? My signal bars sometimes drop to 1 or 2. -.-

Phantom Rom, Modem: XXUENA1 (latest official modem)

Thanks. :D
[Galaxy Note II General] singhpratik87:
The latest modem out there is ND3, you can find the link to it in my signature "jellykat", Good luck
[Galaxy Note II General] erljayp:
What I mean is for the stock Rom for Note II - Philippines. It's only NA1. :)

ND3 is from French N2, won't it affect the reception since it was built for another country? :D

Thanks. ^.^
[Galaxy Note II General] singhpratik87:
Stock Rom yes, NA1 is jelly bean i believe. Only France and India got ND3 (first KK firmware),only difference between the two versions is the modem.France has ND3 modem,Indian one has ND1.I am running the France dedoxed deknoxed debloated one being in India and have the ND3 modem along with it and have had no issues with it .Ofcourse every country will get an official stock release and the modem will be tailor made to give the best possible reception/connectivity but there's no absolutely no harm in flashing another country's ROM.Also switching modems is so easy if you feel this modem is not serving you right just flash another one .So far no complains from any users about being on french rom and not being on france and most of us are on ND3 modem.So if you are into the whole rooting/flashing you can find a bunch of 4.4 ROM for our note II from stock look to customized ones.
[Galaxy Note II General] glennlevi:
Hey guys, just wondering if you know where I can buy zerolemon/mugen extended battery for our Note 2 here in the philippines. I dont want to order online. Thanks for any feedback!
[Galaxy Note II General] enthusi@st:
Semi-noob question:

I'm interested in flashing DN3 Rom and it says there we have to flash mj5 bootloader. I dont know what bootloader I have so I checked using "device info" app and it says my build bootloader is N7100XXUENA1

I don't understand if I need to change or unlock my bootloader before flashing DN3 "ditto note 3"
[Galaxy Note II General] singhpratik87:
Download phone info app samsung from playstore it will tell you the bootloader you have.NA1 is the build # which means it's 4.3 Firmware version and baseband version refers to the modem.Now if your bootloader is mj5 or anything higher then you don't need to flash mj5 (don't even attempt cause you might hard brick your device).One can only upgrade their bootloader not downgrade.Now in order to flash DN3 kitkat ROM or any other KK rom on xda for our note II one needs to be on mj5 bootloader or higher (i am on MJ5 myself ) and had no issues with any KK roms. The newest bootloader is ND3 which is KK bootloader all other bootloaders are jellybean bootloaders.They are all KNOXED bootloaders which means you cannot downgrade to 4.1.2 .You can only flash 4.3 and 4.4 ROMS except MJ5 which is non knox so one can go all the way back to 4.1.2. Flashing a KNOXED bootloader triggers your warranty and it becomes void.Now depending on which bootloader you got and how much warranty time you have left you have two choices.Either stay on your current bootloader which is Jellybean bootloader (but you cannot charge your phone by turning it off) Or upgrade to ND3 bootloader (you can charge your phone by turning it off and supposed to help people with better wifi reception).I know it's a lot of information thrown at you at one time by me but once you understand which bootloader works the best for you it does get easier.So my suggestion,download the app i suggested tell me which bootloader you are on then i'll guide you what to do next.
[Galaxy Note II General] enthusi@st:
The phone info apps show me that my bootloader is n7100xxuena1 here are the screenshots:
[Galaxy Note II General] singhpratik87:
I am guessing your phone isn't rooted?use dr.ketan's guide from Here or you can always use cf auto root from here. Once done get custom recovery either twrp 2.7.0 or philz touch 6.25.0 make a back up of your current rom along with EFS using This.Next do all the wipes using recovery which means cleaning the internal memory to get it ready for the DN3.

Now if your phone is rooted and you already done the above mentioned steps all you need to do is download DN3 ROM ,place it on external sd card make a back up if you haven't ,clean the internal memory and flash the new ROM.
[Galaxy Note II General] enthusi@st:
Sorry I should have said from the start that my phone isn't rooted hehe. I did not realize that was the reason why the apps won't show my bootloader version. Thank you
[Galaxy Note II General] singhpratik87:
Well root it first and do all the backups and efs back up then do the wipes using custom recovery link to twrp or philz recovery are available in my signature "jellykat FAQ" also ive explained in the link on how to do the wipes only do those dont touch anything else
[Galaxy S III General] Octanee:
hi guys, so im trying to figure this out, i've purchased a phone from bell before, which tursn out it wasnt that, and infact was a whole different model which is lesser than i thought i was buying...

so, im thinking of looking at that GALAXY S3 but i see theres a few models of it, or revisions, theres the i9300 which it might or might not be... or theres the newly released i9305 which it seems like LATELY they've been trying to advertise this phone so i almost thought it was the i9305... but its not

i called bell and asked them for what the "model number is" but she said, im not sure i think its " LT7416" which i find nothing on, go figure...

heres a link to it on their site, if it asks to select province then select bc i guess http://www.bell.ca/Mobility/Products/Samsung-Galaxy-S3

now i know that the i9300 has a quad core cpu and 1gb of ram the 9305 has 2gb of ram with same quad core.... , which is what i'd like, yet somehow on bells site its advertising it to have 2 GB OF RAM with a 1.5ghz DUAL CORE what the heck?

now im thinking WTF how can bell falsely advertise a phone name when it is actually a total different model, my phone from them i thought was a galaxy W when its actually, guess what, a exhibit II :confused:

but yeah i want to get to the bottom of this, i want a quad core phone from bell, the S3 looks dreamy but only if its that i9300 model or a 9305 :) thanks all!
[Galaxy S III General] Octanee:
i want to add to this, i have found this phone by sprint, i would guess this to be the same type of phone up here from bell, its a 2gb ram 1.5 ghz dual core "galaxy s III" its clearly not the real deal, so what i up with this stuff happening? i want the REAL deal not a half assed version of it for the exact same price, as the full 1

http://www.phonearena.com/phones/Samsung-Galaxy-S-III-Sprint_id7099

now searching more i believe the common cheap model of the actual S3 here in canada is the " I747m"
[Galaxy S III General] tietherope:
It has 2GB of RAM and LTE. I'm not sure why you think it's cheap. The dual core processor is still very impressive. You probably wouldn't know the difference.
[Galaxy S III General] graffixnyc:
I will agree with this since I own both :)

with ICS, I noticed a slight difference the international being more fluid and more smooth than the US/CA version. And other small differences, One did certain things better than the other and visa versa.

But I will say since I've been running JB on both (official on my 9300 and a leak on my US version) the little differences I did notice I no longer notice as much. Not that they were huge differences to begin with. Even on ICS the I could only notice the differences when I had them side by side. JB on the US version is VERY VERY smooth and fluid. Bell has had one JB leak and TMO has had 2 and honestly the 2nd JB leak for tmo was actually smoother than the last leak or two for the international.

Also it kind of sucks that codeworkx is no longer going to support exynos based devices because samsung is not releasing things needed for exynos development. I think he even told people that want a fully working CM10 on the GS3 with no memory leaks and fully working HW composer then to get a US gs3 because it will never fully work on the 9300 unless samsung man's up and releases what developers need.
[Galaxy S III General] Octanee:
interesting, well i just think its jewish of them some how, if i was to buy the phone out right it would cost me the same to get the same model with the quad vs the dual kinda thing

but i was just talking to a buddy of mine and he said he 2 months ago got his S3 off bell, and he says his is a 1 gb 4 core phone, so i said well get a phone info app and lets double check and he did and he said yeah it says 4 cores and 1 gig, so perhaps they are for some reason advertising it as a lesser phone than it actually is? fingers crossed
[Galaxy S III General] btemtd:
I think that is one **** thing about samsung, is they have so many different versions of the same phone. They should of Release the I9305 to EVERYONE and not made other revisions. So stupid of them
[Galaxy S III General] hansonator:
Bell only has the dual core lte version of the galaxy s 3. If lte is available in your area, that would be the better choice for you.

I kinda wish I got that one instead, development for the international version so far has been disappointing.

Guys, what are the step by step instructions for installing MT Kernel 2.5?

I really cannot install it, I already tried flashing it via odin but my phone just crashes. Please help me guys.

Thank you in Advance guys!
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] anasdcool71:
Try mai77's method (flashing via CWM). It's in the second post of the kernel's thread (by ronnieryan). Make sure you've flashed to stock firmware first.
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] franzjonard:
I already did that. My phone just freezes in Samsung Galaxy Young Logo and after that, I cannot open the recovery mode.

Uhm, Is it recommended that I also include PIT and Bootloader in odin while flashing?
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] Kousthubha Kumar:
Nope. NOT Recommended to use PIT/Bootloader/re-partition in odin.

Installing with ext4 system and cache could be tricky, Id recommend to flash to stock ROM before flashing the kernel.

1) Flash back to stock ROM

2) Go to recovery, flash CWM to get CWM recovery

3) Backup using backup and restore

4) Flash ext4converter.zip and reboot

5) Go to download mode

6) Flash the latest merruk kernel using odin

7) Now go to CWM, backup and restore -> Advanced restore -> Restore System

8) Wait till it completes

9) Reboot and your stock ROM will now boot

10) You can flash ANY custom ROM you wish and do any modifications.

Thats it, this worked for me
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] franzjonard:
Oh thanks for the response. I already installed the kernel but I have a question. My galaxy y is having a random shutdown, do you know the reason why? And another question, what applications are you using to undervolt and to manage the cpu of your galaxy y?
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] LilSasa:
Same here, my phone does random reboot, too. I'm still in patience because the kernel hasn't been finished yet.

I'm using No-frills CPU Control to manage CPU and CPU spy to monitor it.

Oh, I thought it was just me that experiencing that problem. Anyway, thanks for the response. :)
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] LilSasa:
Hey, try setting your governor to ondemand (I was using ondemandx previously) and min. frequency to 312 MHz. My phone has lasted for nearly a day without rebooting, I just did it manually to update the kernel to developer edition version 8. :D
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] MAGNUM.:
Guys just tick the option prevent other apps from changing the frequency in settings in No Frills CPU....

Because smtimes after deepsleep the phn frequency automaticalky changes to 156 mhz....

So it will not reboot automatically..

And keep its frequency greater than 312 to avoid frequent rebooting because armv6 processor supports frq greater than 300mhz....
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] franzjonard:
Guys, I already solved the auto shutdown problem. I reflashed the kernel because the first time I flashed it, I am on Merruk Kernel 2.0 Pre-final. Now I flashed it on stock. I got it solved and I set 312 Mhz minimum on no frills using smartassv2 and vr.

By the way, I will flash the version 8 now.
