Sir, please understand the Moderator put in place threads for the entire Community, not just for your needs or requests. Reread O_G post, and move on...be understanding that the allowing of an OT and a few others threads is welcomed.

If this doesn't stop of "my thread...my thread"...The Moderator Team could just result in shutting down ALL non development threads down, and use what others deem as an iron fist type solution. This is not a threat, just an ask of compliance by understanding the "big" picture.

Additionally, I will ask all do not PM me requesting or wanting me to reevaluate another Moderator actions. As the actions taken here I fully support.

Enough said, thank you all for your time in this matter. Move on...

Indian friends, whats happening!! do we have a thread or not!!, any one from pune, whats update on availability of grey!!
[Galaxy Note II General] Ritz89:
appreciate all your help mate i think i m going need to do that anyways because i keep getting a message that my system uid is inconsistent and i need to wipe my data partition (not that i have any idea what that actually means....)
[Galaxy Note II General] droidzika:
by doing wipe data/factory reset - wipe data partition, your device will go clean into an install so as to not have any traces of the previous install which could fork things up for you. remember to back up before you do all of this
[Galaxy Note II General] Ritz89:
how do i do that again....sorry for being such a pest just dont want to screw my phone up haha....
[Galaxy Note II General] droidzika:
you have to get into recovery..your rom may have that option by simply pressing the power button, a menu pops up and then you'll see options.. power, restart boot into recovery. if you dont have that option then try the hard keys.. press the menu/power/ vol up button at the same time when you see recovery you can let you, do your backup and wipe.
[Galaxy Note II General] Ritz89:
appreciate that mate actually managed to do it in the mean time lol since i couldnt wait haha think my problem was that i d used titanium to restore the apps data from an old rom so it was messing with the pac man rom.
[Galaxy Note II General] droidzika:
Yeah never restore data just apps with titanium..glad you got it going

Please Help!... N7105 ROM issue

First of all please accept my apologies if I am posting in the incorrect site location - this isn't the most user friendly site I've ever come across, but it is definately helpful to to get help from you friendly and helpful people!

I've just purchased a Galaxy Note 2 (N7105 Vodafone Australia). I've managed to unlock, root and install TWRP perfectly.

My problem is that I've tried three different custom roms in the last few days and none of them seem to work properly with the s pen. The three roms I've tried are Cyanogen, Android Revolution and Omega (in that order). All three of these roms seem great, until I take out the s pen....

The only one of these three roms that will even recognise when the pen touches the screen is Cyanogen (which is the only of the three roms that don't come with the samsung s pen apps). Both Android Revolution and Omega came with the s pen apps pre-installed, but don't seem to work with the s pen at all?? Am I doing something wrong? Are there s pen drivers or something that I need to install? Omega is currently installed and it does vibrate and make a noise when I remove the pen from the dock, but does nothing when the pen touches the screen.

Another thing to note before anyone tries installing these roms on this device is that, after installing Android Revolution or Omega, the phone has no reception and says sim isn't installed. I managed to correct this by installing the modem driver on top of the rom - this took me a day or two to figure out it was the issue and how to fix!

I know its a pretty new phone and therefore there aren't many tried and tested roms, but the three I've tried are pretty common so I was expecting more information about them online than what I've found. I'm by no means an XDA Developer, but have rooted and flashed a few phones and roms in my time. Any assistance or advice in relation to getting the s pen to function on Omega v13 with my N7105 would be greatly appreciated.

thanks
[Galaxy Note II General] droidzika:
Which is why some have rooted their Note and just running the stock rom. Most if not all custom roms do not have the pen functionality. I tried my favorite rom, AOKP but it just wasn't the same, so i stuck around with the stock rom. Touchwiz is not that bad.

[Galaxy Note II General] splasenekladivo:
Exactly. This is the reason I have to go for Samsung based or stock ROM. And like you said, TW is not that bad. It just depends on what you want from your phone.
[Galaxy Note II General] droidzika:
I'm enjoying tw and also.. the note it's like a device full of awesome bacon bits lol The one thing I really wanted was landscape mode and finally found an app for it. I'm all set for now.

Moving app to SD function cannot be supported by this device- SG N2

Good day!

I am using SG Note II 16GB, and I have a 32GB Samsung MicroSD Card. Now, my 16GB was full and I can't update some of my apps anymore. So, I wanted to use my external sd card which is the 32GB. I want to move the apps to this 32GB, and it is NOT possible. It stated according to AppMgr III that my device doest not have a real primary external storage, or the primary external storage is emulated. It says, Moving app to SD function cannot be supported by this device.

So, now, I need help on this. What can I do?

Thank you so much.
[Galaxy Note II General] droidzika:
I've never encounter that issue so the only advice I could give is to search google or the forum.
[Galaxy Note II General] dr.m0x:
You can use directory bind to move some of your app data to the sd card. Have to be rooted though.

Okay, i could be stupid but could not find simple answer for following questions, i hope someone will be kind enough to answer me.

1) If i root my phone with Odin and use triangle away can i still get OTA updates?

2) If OTA updates are not possible, how can i update my phone without losing all my stuff inside the phone?

Thanks in advance!
[Galaxy Note II General] praveen22:
You are not stupid. Nobody was born with these answers. Everyone asked someone or read about it.

1. I have done some rooting but I never chose to stick with stock ROM after I root my phone. I chose a different ROM with different kernel. But I think you can root your phone with Odin and get OTA updates. I am not sure, but triangle away is useful only when you want to send your phone for repairing, so that you can unroot your phone and set the counter back to what it was. This way you don't loose warranty.

2. For now, there are lots of great TW based ROMs out there, all based on 4.1.2. If you are not a fan of touchwiz, you can always keep your phone updated with AOSP based ROMs like CM, PA. Other than that, developers are kind enough to post Stock ROMs, with updates on a regular basis. I don't think you will miss much even after rooting, in fact, imo, you can only get more and more.

I hope I helped. Will be glad to answer any other question.

What you guys think about these phones? I need a new one but not sure which one i should wait for. I'm passing on the S4 as I'm looking for something 'different'.

Google's Xfon- pure android motorola built....

Nexus 5- asop cant go wrong Lg built

Note 3- big and powerful

Lg Optimus G Pro- not sure about Lg phones but nexus 4 seems ok plus no stylus or spen features

I'm leaning on the Xfon or nexus 5...what's your choice?

I think waiting for the next great thing to hit the market is a bad move. You will always be waiting. Then once it does come out and you buy it.. There is no doubt the next best thing will be there. Manufactures time release dates just to get your money . If you need it and want it now. just buy what works for you and Be happy. If you can wait a month or two regardless

of the situation Something new will be out. But wait another month and We.. You will be chasing dreams

Suggestions

I've some serious stuff to post in some development thread. So instead of spamming, I'll post something people can use.

ATOM LAUNCHER is as close to TouchWiz launcher in case of functionality as it gets. It is the smoothest launcher I've tried. and I've tried like at least 20 of them. It's folder animations aren't annoying as the ones on next launcher etc. It's minimalist with needed functionality. Making folders after I restore my apps from Titanium is a breeze. On TouchWiz it would take me half an hour at least.

POWER TOGGLES is another good app for getting maximum out of the Notification bar. Since our phone has a huge screen, we're left with enough space in the notification panel to be used permanently. The app allows 2 rows to be put in the panel. Personally I use one row containing 8 of my frequently used contacts (very handy, you'd love it) and the 2nd row containing 8 of my frequently used apps. PERFECT!

Ugh, that's enough for one post. :P Hope, I'm not offending anyone who might think this as unwanted.

Question for Samsung galaxy note 2 users.

Hi all, I have a little question:

In my country, if you root the phone, you lost the warranty.

If, I'll buy a second-hand Note 2 rooted(the Note 2 have warranty), and I will unroot the phone to get back to default settings, I'll can use again the warranty?

PS: Sorry for my bad english.
[Galaxy Note II General] thelieisajoke:
If you flashed the Rom, (and therefore got your flashcounter increased)

you need to use TriangleAway so that it will be (softwareside) like fresh bought.
[Galaxy Note II General] alexsteaua999:
So...?

So, it doesn't matter what custom rom the phone has? I only need tu use TriangleAway, and that's all?
[Galaxy Note II General] csmiler:
Quick question, someone told me that installing a rom doesn't void your warranty, assuming you use triangle away, will a stock based rom be sufficiently stock to either not be noticed, or just not count as custom software? :confused:
[Galaxy Note II General] apallohadas:
The legality will depend on your country and provider.

Research before you jump and decide if you can live with the consequences.
[Galaxy Note II General] Rickav:
Obviously depends how stock it looks. Even some stock-like ROMs such as Omega have distinctly different features from the Stock which will, inevitably, be noticed by anyone who works for Samsung/their phone provider franchise. Furthermore, installing a ROM will void your warranty. As will rooting it. That "someone"'s pants should be blazing right about now.

The function of Triangle Away, in the off chance that it functions as it was meant to (I have had a bad experience with it so I don't wholly trust it), is to simply reset your flash counter to 0. Thus, if taken to any Samsung phone provider outlet, they will not be able to know that the phone has been rooted resulting in your phone still being covered by its warranty. This doesn't, however, work if your phone doesn't even look stock like.

My best advice for you, in the unfortunate case that your phone somehow broke in a fashion that you have to take it to be repaired, is:

1. Make backup of your current ROM as it stands now. In general, always make backups every now and then (monthly perhaps).

2. Depending on your Recovery Software (CWM or TWRP), save those backups either on an external SD card or transfer to your computer.

3. Apply Triangle Away to reset flash counter to 0.

4. EITHER install Android Revolution HD ROM or install original stock ROM on to your phone. In my opinion, ARHD looks ridiculously similar enough to stock to be passable, whereas reverting to original stock ROM is the safer option.

5. You will now have a phone with nearly no evidence of it being rooted --> Resulting in it still being covered by warranty.

6. Nearly is the key word there. You cannot remove your custom recovery software without completely & utterly factory resetting your phone to square 1. In other words, complete data wipe.

7. Step should 6 should not really worry you. Note 2 is fantastic phone. As long as its owner is smart enough by reading instructions and the like, the phone should be absolutely fine from most dangers.

Hopefully, that cleared some confusion for yourself...
[Galaxy Note II General] csmiler:
Thanks, afaik it voids the warranty here, my S stopped getting updates so I had no choice, hoping I won't start to crave one on the Note 2 for a while :good:

---------- Post added at 06:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:24 PM ----------

Thanks!

I almost always had a problem restoring backups on my old phone, 70% of all my restore efforts would just end up in a bootloop, the rest of the time it was pretty flawless.

Step 6, by utterly factory resetting the phone, I presume you mean flashing a stock kernal+rom?

The only thing I worry about is SDS, although I guess it's fixed by now, I can't convince myself it's worth the risk for now, if 4.2.2 disappoints, it'll be arhd, pa, or pac.

Cheers, :good:
[Galaxy Note II General] Rickav:
Man, bootloops terrify me. I've had it very, very rarely, and it's just one of those times when you think "maybe a nokia would have been a better decision..." This being my first smartphone, I always made sure I knew most of what I was doing to my Note 2. Of course, as a student, that lasted for about a day or so before going full retard and flashing

all

the roms and trying

all

the kernels. Inevitably, I flashed a few ROMs while were still in beta phase/I flashed them incorrectly somehow and BAM... I now have a useless hunk of touchscreen metal plate on my hand. I have made a huge mistake.

But anyway, you're mostly right. Step 6 is to do with flashing stock kernel & rom. To be more thorough about it, I completely wiped all data by going into recovery mode select the usual data/factory reset... AND then selecting wipe system. I'm not entirely sure if that's an option on Clockworkmod but it certainly is one on Teamwin Recovery. And dear god, what an option it is. To be honest, reflecting back, I hit that button pretty much by accident.

It deleted everything. What was left was... Nothing. Except for the Teamwin Recovery that was running. It was funny because I had no idea I had done that at the time so I tried to go ahead and reboot as normal, the Recovery just said: "Are you sure? You have no ROM installed." That was approximately the point the poop dropped. Or the penny hit the fan. Or something like that. Long story short, I had a backup of the custom ROM I was running on the external SD card at the time so I flashed that zip and started normally and set about teaching the phone my name again. And had to flash Google apps etc.

TL;DR - I look forward to the 4.2 firmware whenever Note 2 does receive it. Currently, I have the 4.2 clock & camera and they are quite a major step-up, at least in terms of aesthetics, from 4.1. All I really want is the 4.2 lockscreen with scrollable screen and widget pinnable. I understand apps like WidgetLocker can already replicate this (poorly in my opinion), so that's really what I need. I great-looking, functional lockscreen.
[Galaxy Note II General] csmiler:
Oh gosh, is it still bricked?

I genuinely feel your pain, I do hope it works soon. :highfive:

After all, we do love them phones like our own. :(

Me too! I only want 4.2.2 for it's lockscreen, and if Samsung adds the eye scrolling feature, it'd love to try it out. I agree, widgetlocker is not a comparable alternative, nor is it a particularly elegant or efficient, makes the experience feel pieced together.

Since the lock screen is the first thing we see, and sometimes the only thing, it needs to be good.

The only thing holding me to stock right now is the swipe to screenshot feature. I haven't loved any feature as much as this one, multiwindow and smartstay pale in comparison to this purely elegant feature :victory: :victory: :victory:

On a side note, I've been wondering how the s-pen functions on a custom rom, if you would shed some light. :)

Apologies, I tend to browse on tapatalk and switch to my laptop for longer posts. I didn't figure out how to thank off it till this morning. :o
