Phone not booting up after installing v29

Hi all,

I just downloaded and installed v29 (4.4.2), upgrading from v19 (4.1.2). I followed the instructions of formatting /system, /preload and /cache and the Dalvik cache. Now the phone turns on but is stuck in the booting screen. I can still access CWM but reinstalling v29 hasn't helped. Hopefully I can recover from this situation? Thanks in advance for your help!
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Unguis:
Can you tell me what mod are you talking about please? Thanks in advance. I've searched for it but couldn't find anything.

A bad download can affect anything from booting up to something as simple as an app working properly. It really depends on what and where it went wrong in the download but as far as trouble shooting goes it's a good starting point.

If using TWRP and it won't boot then go back to recovery and try wiping cache/dalvik then reboot again.

---------- Post added at 07:17 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:14 AM ----------

It's working fine here but I don't have anything else installed like xposed battery mods that may interfere. If you don't either then maybe a non wipe reflash may do the trick.

thanks for the reply. i am not using TWRP, running CWM-based recovery. I deleted cache and dalvic cache and rebooted. still not working. will installing v18 again work do you think?

You should use TWRP. Change your recovery and try again.

I just reinstalled v18 and the phone has booted up. I will use the phone like this, but definitely want to upgrade to v29. i read that v27 is a full wipe and v29 is a 'no full wipe':is this why the phone isn't flashing properly? where can i find v27? couldn't find on google search..

I am downloading a custom ROM from sam mobile. Version:

Model: GT-N7100

Model name: GALAXY Note II

Country: France

PDA: N7100XXUFND3

I am planning to flash this on top of the v18 (4.1.2) that i have now to get 4.4.2. I will then install v29 on top of that. when would i require to flash 4.2.2 root file?

Why am I keeping getting disconnected from wifi and why is that the phone does not even try to reconnect itself again?

Please help as I have posted the issue many time.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Intruder7s:
When I jumped from 4.1.2 to 4.4 ( I think it was v27? or 28? don't remember ) I did it perfectly.

Full wipe > set up rom > restart for root >let apps download from the playstore instead of restoring them with titanium ( which is a method for solving incombatibility issues accross roms ) and did everything for a smooth, bug free transition. No mods installed. Only xposed framewokr with 3-4 addons.

And bug free it is. No problems at all.

Hmmm...not. Unfortunately I had 1 issue that doesn't seem to be rom related.

So I am asking if anyone has encountered the same issue.

It keeps forgetting passwords. Not after a restart or something. Daily.

Example. I am at home connected to my wifi. Going the gym and inputting the gym's wifi password and connect fine.

When going back home 50% times I need to reinput my wifi password or else it connects automatically to my neighbor's wifi ( I don't know why it remembers her pass but not mine ). The day after, I am going to the gym again and it ALWAYS needs the password again. Never remembers it.

Any ideas? I know it syncs passes with google's servers so I tried turn sync off ( which deletes the cloud data ) > restore my passwords through titanium > restart and re-enable sync which should fix it but...it didn't.

This has been going on for almost 1 month and it is very annoying.

Any ideas?

Thanks
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] cooza:
Going from 4.3 to 4.4 you will need to do a full wipe. Its highly recommended anyway to avoid FCs. The best fully working recovery with all these latest firmwares is TWRP and the best bootloader as far as everything working is the 4.4 KK BL but if you dont want KNOX then use the MJ5 one. Once on 4.4 KK you can flash all following versions of KK as non-wipe.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Magnumutz:
I went back to v27, the battery life is way better on that one.

Not sure what caused it to go down so bad on v28 and v29...

Anybody knows if there is any known Echo problems between Samsung ROM phones and AOSP ROM phones?

I tried the following during Hangouts video calls:

1) Note 2 with (Omega 29) Samsung ROM experiences strong Echo while talking to Find 7a with a 4.4.2 Gummy ROM (no issues at all on the Find 7a)

2) Note 2 with (Omega 29) Samsung ROM experience strong Echo while talking to S3 with a 4.3 ProBAM ROM (no issues at all on the S3)

3) Note 2 with (Omega 29) Samsung ROM has no Echo problems while talking to S3 with (Omega 58) Samsung ROM (no issues at all on the S3)

The same is true with a Note 8 with Stock Samsung ROM talking with Note 2 or S3 with (Omega) Samsung ROMs

4) S3 with (Omega 58) Samsung ROM experience strong Echo while talking to Find 7a with a 4.4.2 Gummy ROM (no issues at all on the Find 7a)

5) S3 with (Omega 58) Samsung ROM experience strong Echo while talking to S3 with a 4.3 ProBAM ROM (no issues at all on the second S3)

6) Note 8 with Stock Samsung ROM experience strong Echo while talking to Find 7a with a 4.4.2 Gummy ROM (no issues at all on the Find 7a)

I have some issues with v29. Some of my apps cannot write on the internal sd. Es explorer cannot delete anything on the internal sd but root explorer does. Dropbox cant open any file giving a storage full error. Evernote does not open giving some error of file storage. Seems like a permission issue. I fixed permissions with twrp but still the same issue. Did a completely clean install (internal sd as well) but still the same issue. I have no fc's ora nuthing like that.

I installed this rom but when I tried running Titanium Backup it says it wasn't root. So I went to install CF-Auto-Root-t03g-t03gxx-gtn7100 in hoping to root the device. However, it failed when using Odin in Administrator mode. Now the device won't boot to recovery. Any suggestions? It can boot into download mode though.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] cooza:
Coming from another ROM the best is always a full wipe. Cache/data/system and factory reset then full wipe selected in aroma.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] davidwyl:
Since you can boot into download mode why don't you reflash recovery...that might solve recovery problem
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] nikdimas:
Ok it works now.. but when I try restoring apps from TB and tries to run it, they all FC. I fixed permission in recovery and it still FCs -_-"

Hi guys,

So I installed v29 successfully, coming from v18. i flashed the wifi fix using odin as instructed, but the wifi is still not working. i then installed mj5 bootloader using odin and then the flashed the wifi fix again. my phone's wifi just doesnt seem to work. any thoughts on how to fix this? Thanks for your help.

If you have the mj5 bl you don't need the fix. Flash the rom clean install again.

with v27 i'm having a wired problem that prevent apps from using internal sdcard i can't download a file from google drive or dropbox to the device even but sdcard accessible when i connect my device to pc via cable but not via airdroid

i can't figure out this proble so i installed the rom again and everythign was fine tell yesterday when the problem back again !

i'm only using xposed + wanam xposed as modifications + latest TWRP !!!!

so installing new omegacould fix this and do i need to apply supersu flashable zip like v27 ?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] striving-to-survive:
reboots by itself ?

i had no problems with v 28 of this rom, but when i flashed v 29, everything went well, then i noticed that every 6 to 8 hours the phone just reboots itself. No specific cause too that I can link to, happens when i am texting, taking a picture, or just letting it be, it reboots. Strangely it doesn't show the boot down animation, just galaxy note 2 then boot up animation . Help, please

Edit: I reflashed the rom, didn't help. I also changed to a different kernel, also didn't help. Unrooted and re rooted because i thought it was supersu, still didn't help.

Have you ever flashed a newer bootloader?. If you are on an older version then you need the fix. Either that our just flash the newer bootloader.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] YASHAR_ARYA:
I was using version 18 of omega series.I think I had 4.1.Tell me right now what can i do to fix it ?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] cooza:
If you have never flashed a bootloader then it's most likely you have a 4.1.2 one. This one requires a Wi-Fi fix to run 4.3 and above. Either that or you just flash the 4.3 KNOX-free bootloader (MJ5). Only thing with that one is your phone will restart when you try to charge it while it's turned off but to me that's no big thing. Other option is the 4.4 bootloader (ND3) where everything works as it should but it has KNOX. To me KNOX is no big issue and i have flashed ND3. Just means that you can't downgrade back to 4.1.2 but i think some have been successful going back to 4.3.

ND3 4.4 - https://www.dropbox.com/s/o0qczo0x3dld2u8/N7100_KK_ND3_BL.tar.md5

MJ5 4.3 (open the rar file to get the tar file) - https://www.dropbox.com/s/1w5wjtuwmm87pa0/BL_MJ5_DN3.rar

Put the tar file in PDA in Odin and flash. Use with TWRPs latest recovery. If it gets stuck on the first reboot use the 3 button combo to go back to recovery and wipe cache/data the reboot again.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] YASHAR_ARYA:
Thanks mate,

As you said,I was doing and flash ND3,but after still stuck in samsung alert.It doesn't go to recovery.

Hi guys !

Maybe the problem has already posted.

I don't know if it's a problem with this rom or others too.

I hope someone can give me a solution.

I have a big problem of storage ! Not enough space.

Here are the settings of my G2 in storage menu :

Total storage : 16,00 Go

Memory system : 5,54 Go

Space used : 1,51 Go

Cache : 6,00 Mo

Other files : 8,45 Go (it's my problem)

Free space : 508 Mo

I don't know how I can have 8,45 Go of other files ?! Maybe from other ROMS, bad wipe ? How can I delete this and get back some free space.

Because I'm stuck to install new apps from the Market ....

Thanks for the help you can give to me !!

I really need.

---------- Post added at 10:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:03 PM ----------

It was old backup from Clockwork mod, an app that i uninstall.

thanks to market apps like Storage analyser who let me see which folder use space.

Have you tried the 3 button combo or boot to download mode with the 3 button combo and from there go to recovery?.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] singhpratik87:
I am sure you are more knowledgeable than I am but you just told the person to flash the bootloader via PDA tab.Shouldn't he be using the Bootloader tab to flash the bootloader? Or one can flash it via PDA Tab as well ?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] cooza:
Since it's a tar file you can use PDA as if it were a modem. Guess it's easier to say PDA since it's the most commonly used slot. I used it to flash MJ5 and ND3. No biggy really mate.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] singhpratik87:
Oh okay thank you for the clarification ,I was under the impression that BL tab should be used for bootloader.

Is v29 battery drain any better or worse than previous versions? I've been running Omega for a very long time and battery life has always been very good. With v29 my battery life has dropped dramatically without any obvious cause like a wakelock etc.

I've flashed back to an AOSP rom. I'm using the same apps reinstated using TB and the battery life is much better than I was getting on v29. This is highly unusual because I've always found Sammy based roms to have the best battery life.

Please don't read this as a complaint. I just can't figure out why my battery life has gone so bad with v29.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] cooza:
Battery life can change from firmware to firmware depending on how much bloatware is in it. Go through it with TB and see if you have any extra stuff you didn't have before that may be running in the background and uninstall it.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Magnumutz:
No offense, cooza, but I've always removed bloatware from my Note II and I've had terrible battery life time on v28 and v29.

Not sure what changed in those two versions, but they suck my battery dry.

So, I went back to v27. That's the most stable version for me so far.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] mihailuican:
Do you use the third party kernel in your signature, or the stock omega kernel? Stock kernel and omega 29 work flawlessly.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Magnumutz:
No, the signature hasn't been updated in ages :P

No, I'm using the default kernel.

ES File Explorer problem

Hi, I did a full wipe & fresh Install of V29 and restore everything with TitaniumBackup. Now the ES File Explorer has a problem, its able to write everywhere except internal SDcard only, The ExtSdCard can write & even the root (\) can write. I already tried to enable root & select RW but still the same. :confused:

I've search & found that earlier version of Omega someone encounter this problem before & fix it by uninstalling & deleting libmyaes.so and libsapi_so_1.so. But I cannot find these two files, i even try to do a search.

Anyone know how to fix it ?

I'm using RootBrowser now & everything is working fine with it, but I really like ES File Explorer :(

Forgot to mention that before TitaniumBackup restore, everything was fine, its only after restore that the problem came.
