No But I ALWAYS keep a few previous versions of ROMS backed up Just in case I wan to go back to one. For issues like this especially.

---------- Post added at 11:20 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:14 AM ----------

NAH It's not critical unless people don't read and understand backing up the EFS is a step that should be taken each and every time they get a phone.I use multiple paid apps and PC programs to to that. It's that important to me.

I don't care for the EFS or CSCs messed with as well. But I learned from the SGS II to always make an EFS Backup. I use EFS Pro and have three different back ups, Tar,IMG and gz I think. I just don't like messing with EFS .Even backing it up lol.

[Galaxy Note II Android Development] wesamothman:
I have this gut feeling that the modem issue is due to sticky RIL libs in the last firmware. When i changed the libs only from an older firmware, I was able to change modems. But i cant promise it works for everyone. At least worked for me.

Hanging at 0% on ROM Installation

Hiya Guys,

No stranger to flashing roms. I did put on CarbonRom to try something new. Didn't like it, I've just now attempted to flash Omega 17 after a full wipe but it's been hanging on the formatting system installation screen at 0% installing for over 10 minutes now. I don't want to yank the battery yet until checking in with you guys. Any advice?

Did power cycle after 20 minutes and made sure to launch straight into Recovery. Reinstalled and it took this time... Phew.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Simone:
No problem here.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] NewKindOfWorld:
No problem here neither.

And for info, about the recent complains about v17, remember that most of forums' users post generally to complain, and a small part to thank and report good news. Works for any subject on the Internet :)

Reverted back to 16 until i understand the affecting of the EFS Folder. I don't care for messing with the EFS folder.

Steps I used

TWRP recovery

Wipe Davlik wipe cache

Flash Omega 16

Booted up and everything worked

However I used EFS Pro to restore a backup of my EFS from NOV 2012

Rebooted all is well

Back on 16 and have options again.

Great ROM. 16 17 all Omega stuff.

Guys does hawkish rom give anything more than omega. Thinking of changing to hawkish as iam fedup with the multi window of this rom as it changes to every time i restart. Any help?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] NadMaj:
you can go to that rom's thread and compare the features listed on it's OP with Omega's and see which suites your taste better...

and next time please don't ask this kind of questions.. you should've posted in that rom's thread to know what features that rom has.. or better yet try the rom for yourself..

and FYI.. you can easily uninstall the mw app in settings/app manager if you don't like it..
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] paras:
Thanks but is there no way to install and use multi window control instead
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] NadMaj:

for installing a new theme over another one, is it necessary to reinstall the rom. currently on v17. Also, is full wipe required for this?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] NadMaj:
not necessary but better to reflash to avoid previous theme's residues... coz not all themes theme the same png's and mod the same xml's... that's why nandroid backups are strongly recommended before flashing a theme.. and no need to full wipe..

yes it's disabled by default..

HI @LL

This rom have overclocking?

thanks @LL

I"m noob :(
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Nathalex27:
Welcome on the best Samsung based ROM for note II.

We knew you are a noob the moment you asked for overclocking in a rom..lol

Overclocking is in a kernel not a rom.

If you want to overclock than go to "original android development" and download a kernel that supports overclocking.

Like:

Perseus ( comes with stweaks app for setting custom parameters )

Devil ( you need to download trickster mod app to set custom parameters after flashing )

If you need more help try searching Note II general forum to learn about customizing youre note II.

sending me a PM when you are stuck is an option too. :)
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] saiku1314:
THANKS:highfive:

In fact, I do not need an overclocked kernel.

Because I want to increase the power of endurance,So, I want to know this rom(kerne).
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Nathalex27:
When wanting to prolongue you're battery life a custom kernel is a good option too.

You could look into undervolting and kernel tweaking.

I must say that stock kernel is pretty good and the difference is negligible.

But perseus comes with some cool options as does devil kernel since it is based of perseus kernel sources.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] saiku1314:
I use this rom kernel itself it, i'm noob understand too little.

thanks you!:victory:
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Simone:
That's good. Let your ROM settle for a couple of days. If you find the stock kernel not meeting your needs, flash a good custom kernel.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Unreal988:
mmm.... what s performances custom kernel???

on n7000 perseus have a too lag but batterylife is good..

I'm using perseus 36.3 with omega v17 on N7100 and get way better battery life compared with stock kernel. the better battery life is mostly achieved by putting up to three processor cores to sleep in light load conditions, therefore it's maybe not as snappy than stock kernel. I don't feel that it would be laggy.

Edit:

screenshot of last 40 hours with 4 h screen on...

after about 30s light load, three cores are put to sleep

Stock kernel holds all cores running while screen is on

Hi,

That may be your error. I do not experience no such issues.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] wesamothman:
If NFC and wifi direct apks are installed under /system/app then make sure your settings to enable them or set the services up are correct.

Or

Fix permissions in recovery.

Or

Flash the rom again no wipe.

All cases you must nandroid first.

Hi guys. I never had EFS problems on my phone, but now I see there is a real danger. I should like only to prevent myself, so I have some questions to you.

1. are EFS backs different for each rom, or it`s enough to have one EFS image file saved?

2. if I remember well on AROMA installer it`s a possibility to make an EFS back before to flash the rom. Is it recommended to choose it by each ROM flash?

Thx.
