You can still download it on your PC and put the update package on SD card // mount phone as SUB storage and copy files there, unmount, reboot into CWM and install package as described in thread //.

Sometime download directly to phone fails :/ This is the best solution.

Not sure if its just me, but I did a search and you know what it maybe. But for some reason I can not add a credit card or even use my google wallet. It's saying that "user account is locked"

I am rooted with the latest wallet version. Was wondering if google is locking people out due to me being rooted? Has anyone else have problems?

Updated from Market? Or Updated to latest using modified wallet? That there would be the big difference as to why its working or not. ;)

You need to log into your account online, an account is locked when its disabled online. It's incase your phone is lost or stolen

Ok I check online and seen my account is active. But when I activate my wallet on my phone it says my account is lock and to call customer service. So I did call and they ha e no idea why my wallet will not activate my credit cards. So now I am left with a google wallet apk that is useless to me. Does anyone know what's a solution to this problem?

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] om4:
If its not showing locked online try locking it and then letting the account sync, go back and try unlocking and letting it sync.

Go into settings-app-googlewallet- delete data and cache. Force stop. Reset phone just to be safe. Profit?

Also try resetting google wallet from within app-settings.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mann75:
I did that as well...and I did it while the google customer service rep. Was on the phone with me. And as I mentioned it shows active online under my account but says I am still not allowed to add card due to lock account.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Anthonicia:
Go online and remove from phone, then reset and clear everything.

After that do a full wipe, factory reset in twrp. Flash another Rom.

Perplexed after that.

After u remove from phone on wallet web site and factory reset it should see your phone as different. If it still says locked then u have a secure element issue and need to get a new phone if u want wallet capability.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mann75:
It seems I may have to get a new phone. For some reason it still is saying account closed. I did everything that was mentioned. But I wonder why after using the wallet apk. For sometime, now it decides to stop working.

yeahaa... after 3 days of testing and testing i finaly made it :) ....

Well the trick with *#*#2663#*#* works only on froyo and not on any other stock rom...

So just get Froyo and after flashing it do a full wipe within the recovery menu. Afterwards boot and enter *#*#2663#*#* and update the TouchPad FW.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jaybird16:
Anxious to try FroYo

Same thing happened to me a week ago, the four touch keys across the bottom of my T989 suddenly stopped working for no apparent reason.

When I bought my T989 in Nov2011, I got it from a guy who bought it for his son, but his son decided he wanted an iPhone instead, so it was brand new BUT already rooted (juggernaut v3.1, CMR). It was running flawlessy until now. I hadn't done anything to it and was still running the same rom.

Over the past week I've gotten up to speed and I wiped it and flashed stock ICS 4.0.4 UVLH1 rom after which the keys functioned normally UNTIL Kies said there was newer firmware, and so I updated to that. I tried wiping and reflashing ICS in hopes the keys would work again and skip the Kies update, but this time the keys didn't work at all. I've had the phone apart to examine the hardware and (without removing the screen) everything appears perfect. I am still holding out hope that it's a software thing, not a hardware thing.

I tried the *#2663# code trick and pressed the "Touch Key FW Update" button, but it just stayed busy for the four hours I let it grind away (obviously not working).

So, noob question, does anyone know where I could find a stock Froyo rom for the T989? I've only seen it for the T959. I really want to try this and see if it gets my touch keys working again.

Thanks in advance.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] treesmoker:
Okay Guys, I have read thread after thread but I'm still unsure on a few things and would really appreciate some straight answers here:

My fiance has a Samsung Galaxy Note GT-N7000 with the following:

Android Version: 4.0.4

Baseband Version: N7000XXLRK

Kernel Version: 3.0.15-N7000XXLRK-CL811902

Build Number: IMM76D.XXLRK

Now I'm not really sure if we need to root the phone or not, all she really wants is:

1) Custom themes (different unlock sliders ect)

2) More customizing apps like SPB Shell 3D

3) Better Battery Life

From what I understand in order to get noticably longer battery life and UI customization you need custom ROMs with optimized code, but I could be wrong.

I would would also like to be able to Overclock the CPU but then thats just me being a bloke :D

So heres the Questions:

1) There are now One-Click rooting batch file that reduce the risk of end user mistakes Soft/Hard bricking the Phone

Q1) Is this the part that is unsafe? or is it just flashing custom ROMs which is unsafe?

Q2) Should I use CWM to flash ROMs / Recovery / Wipe as in some threads thats the advice and in others you get DO NOT wipe in recovery

DO NOT flash anything else in recovery

In general, DO NOT use recovery at all

Q3) Is there a way of installing Custom unlock sliders and SPB Shell 3D without having to root the phone? I've heard you need DroidWall to block Wifi and Data so the app doesnt call home, but that this requires the phone to be rooted first?

Im really sorry for all the stupid questions but hopefully somebody can clear things up for me.

Thanks
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] R@J$3K#@R:
For installing themes and apps,you need not do any rooting

There are many third party apps to install in play store

For lock screen themes,try go locker,magic locker or milocker

And spb shell can be installed without getting rooted

If you are interested in rooting and flashing custom roms,then first flash a safe kernel(like hydracore) and then flash custom rom through cwm recovery

Dont do any wipe on stock kernel,it may brick your phone

So if you are still interested in rooting,simply flash hydracore kernel through pc odin
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nokiamodeln91:
A1; wiping from stock recovery if ics is unsafe.

A2; cwm is used to flash roms

A3; spb shell doesn't require root. Droidwall is like a firewall. it works on iptables. so it needs root.

If u root u can customize ur phone to gr8 extent

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] antique_sonic:
Rooting is no problem. The cause of brick, as mention by others is the wiping under stock kernel.

Just install the philz modded stock rom, u will get a safe stock kernel + root + cwm.

Or if u want just follow dr. Ketan thread on rooting.

Anyway, try not to use one rooting.

I m not sure whether can work or not, but my last reading base on the search i found, it can't be use for ics. U may correct me if i m wrong.

Best if u want simple rooting nd safe kernel, just flash philz.

And yes if u want to flash custom rom u can only do in cwm.

U cannot flash it under stock recovery.

Good luck!

First Off.... Thankyou a million! I never knew about the apps for theming in the Play Store, the Mrs is more than happy with her new Pink UI and iLike Lock theme...

I've Only tried Go locker so far but so far so good!!!

So let me get this straight, Wiping your phone using the stock wiping utility provided with the phone on the standard Sumsung supplied Kernal is unsafe???

So CWM is an alternative recovery method which is used for flashing Custom Roms, simply enough.

Can you just explain what you mean by customizing your phone to a great extent? what else can be done?

Okay so find correct Kernal version or Philz, flash using stock recovery method then ill have root and CWM???

With Philz can I still Overclock the CPU?

Thankyou very much for the direct links, very helpful indeed, now if I can find the "thankyou" button you'll all be getting my thanks! :D

Looks like you dont really need to root. Except for the overclocking (there goes your battery life :)

Make sure you get the kernel right. After that there isnt much that can go really wrong. Or just wait a while, Jelly Bean (an update for your operating system is) around the corner
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nokiamodeln91:
Oops... this is not the site for asking these kinda question.. its banned in here.. moderator rules u know :angel:

Yes N7000 running ICS stock rom with stock kernel .. wiping on them triggers the emmc erase command that corrupts the system. that y philz kernel is a stock kernel with the erase command disabled and u get root as well as CWM v6.0.1.4 latest. :good:

No Philz is a stock kernel so its just like that, for OC u need a kernel that supports it eg. Hydracore OC.

Installing custom ROMs

Installing Mods like battery mod, call recording, full screen caller ID, 15 toggles, transparent notification . infact u can change the look of ur phone if u know how to tinkle with the System apks and frameworks. Mods mainly require u to access the system folder which is only available when u root.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ginopunsalan:
Good battery life from my N7000 began with the XXLRK. Succeeding builds XXLRQ and XXLRT performed just as well. Therefore do not expect much battery life improvements until your wife changes her phone habits.

Hey guys, sorry its been a long time since my last reply, the Mrs has been so happy using her galaxy note with the new themes/loaders that I haven't needed too ask for more assistance......until now!

To cut a long story short I have a two year old soon who often uses this now to doodle on some of the drawing apps and somehow he removed the apps icon which launces the app tray, and the Mrs was always complaining that she kept getting popups with invites from women on dating websites, (again probably the boy when he's frantically jabbing the screen when he's drawing)

So anyway we wanted to wipe the phone back to its factory settings and I remembered you guys saying it was unsafe to wipe from stock ICS so I've flashed Phiz latest Kernal with touch recovery mode.

I now want to install some custom roms as I'm feeling adventurous :) however I've been reading lots of conflicting info in the threads on here, some saying flash back to GB rom first or you'll brick your note
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] treesmoker:
And others saying that flashing back to Gb roms are the cause of the bricks!!!
