[Galaxy Note II General] Crazypinoy9:
I rooted it but after using a couple different roms I don't see any need for them. I really only wanted root to be able to remove anything I really didn't need and to be able to use any apps that require root. I might eventually use a custom kernel but that's pretty much it.
[Galaxy Note II General] Deaj:
I have no desire to root my Note 2 at this time as it does everything I want from it and does so seamlessly.

Once I have my T-Mobile provided Note 2 I may well keep the international/unlocked version to toy with new ROM's and root apps. Selling this unit OTOH puts $$ back in my pocket. To be decided later. My daily carry Note 2 will remain factory stock unless a firmware update reduces its versatility or usability.
[Galaxy Note II General] rwa66:
I will get my Note2 later today and the first thing i will do is root the baby. If it was only for Adfree Android and some other indispensable applications.

I will see about aftermarket ROM's later. It will depend on the usability. And if I hear you guys talking about I think that won't happen for a while.:laugh:
[Galaxy Note II General] iakovidis:
Rooted 15 minutes after I opened the box. I needed to transfer data from my s3

That's the only thing that is badly needed to this android. Anything else can be avoided even from a flash addict like me. ( a flash my nexus 7 twice a day to keep me sane )

There are some useful mods like skip track , call recording etc. I am with wanam 1.1 and everything looks great.

Rom is a choice for note 2 but root is necessity for android.

Come on, you are in xda , you hold an android device , chainfire already gave root and you want to stay unrooted?
[Galaxy Note II General] hagba:
I have bricked my first Note because of flashing addiction first and because of trying to get rid of some of its shortcomings like slow Contact app scrolling etc.now that the new one adressed all of the issues I was complaining from I didnt even see a need for a root so far, the stock ROM seems to be sufficient enogh.
[Galaxy Note II General] nikzDHD:
I root all my devices, usually for AdAway, hate ads when browsing. Titanium backup pro as well for back ups. Usually custom roms and kernels bring user fixes to shortcomings in OEM software.
[Galaxy Note II General] nexo85:
Yea this phone is really amazing. My only gripe atm is no polaris office which I was sorta expecting. Hopefully soon they will release it. But having to switch from S3 to Note2 I am really satisfied.

With s3 i had to custom rom it on the first day. With this I dont mind the bloat, cause i still have tons of free memory.
[Galaxy Note II General] toofank:
I rooted mainly to swap ext sd with int sd so I can install more stuff :)

also i cant live without the 15toggle & titanium :)

Its still as smooth & stable with root. I think samsung has outdone itself this time. This product is just perfect.

The battery life is awsome. it feels like its twice better then Note1.
[Galaxy Note II General] Kiahnlliya:
I gave my wife my SGS III yesterday and got the Note II. I am loving it, right off the bat it does seem smoother than the S3. With that said, I immediately rooted it and installed Omega. Not so much because it needed it, more because I'm pretty much obsessed with the removal of bloatware and apps that I don't use.
[Galaxy Note II General] cherylbaker:
Did that work well???
[Galaxy Note II General] Gnarfsan:
I haven't rooted mine. I was also a ROM addict on the S I and S II.

But with this TW build I don't really see a need yet. It's really good. I know a lot of people prefer the stock experience, but I personally like many of Samsungs additions.

And yeah, battery life is amazing. Not having to worry about battery life at all is probably the greatest feature of this phone.
[Galaxy Note II General] aCeMaN2001x:
Waiting state side...

For me (whenever these damn slow carriers here release this beast) root is a must, not just for eventually flashing roms, but also free wifi tether :D!! Nexus 7 with Galaxy Note 2 w/tether, I just got a darn good gps not to mention the killer phone that yall get to play with :crying:!!! Plus like others have said root give you freedom you don't usually have, removing bloatware, many upon many rooted apps, ect ect. root it!
[Galaxy Note II General] Kaiser Chief:
The simpler the better ? maybe true if you are simpel yourself....

I say the more options the better...

The less adds the better....

Root = must

Rom = nice if developer really add function, options and removed bloat.

So you prefer you apps running on slower sd card

Write speeds internal are between 18/20 MB/S external class 10 gives 11 MB/S.

reading speeds same deal.

Why need for more then 10GB space for apps.

I got speedy ext sd sandisk uhs I class 10 (64gb) but I not gonna make system slower due to r/w speed wich is crucial for performance.

Micro sd bus is the botlle neck and internal memory does not have this bottle neck so quicker opening of apps and overall performance.

Wanna keep your phone speedy dont use memory swap.

Is it possible to install it on Custom Rom like AOKP ?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] fabricaque:
Sorry.I had not try it :(

Let me get to u later.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] goobieracing:
I dont think so
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] fabricaque:
I think is possible... I will try out with cm10 pa Rom
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] dragonnis:
Nice find. I just installed RocketMIUI when I shifted back to MIUI ROMs recently and it already has SNote working on it so I didn't even realize that this was an issue. lol
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] goobieracing:
Let me know if it is
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] veghov:
Tried with paranoid android cm10. After doing the steps and rebooted my phone bootlooped. Froze at my bootanimation.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] Whiskeyjack4855:
Dude it's clearly stated that it's for miui...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] veghov:
I know that og was clearly for MIUI, i only tried since someone asked if it worked on AOKP. I got curious and tried, i even expected that it would not work, but hey it was worth a shot. :D
[LG Optimus Black] BeBeLKhaN:
hi , how to cook a rom ? i want a full guide
[LG Optimus Black] N00BY0815:
I also want many things, but dont get them. Next time you ask for something, be more polite or noone will help you at all. Did you google or search for it? I think you havent! So i want you to do so. :D Then you ll find a step by step guide made by me. It's very basic, but there are more guides around. Now have fun searching ;)
[LG Optimus Black] BeBeLKhaN:
no offense dudeeeee. well i'm sry it was so urgent :D
[LG Optimus Black] gabwerkz:
:silly: http://bit.ly/UXbe2T hard isn't it?
[LG Optimus Black] agritux:
i am in trouble with updater script.

after flash rom, it boots but wifi or stg else dont work.

what should i do for correct updater script.
[LG Optimus Black] N00BY0815:
Upload it somewhere, so anyone can have a look at it. Maybe you just deleted needed files or took a wrong updater-script ;)

Sent from my think of something creative here. :)
[LG Optimus Black] agritux:
i tried it too time ago and you said the same thing :D

i send you, you said i will look at weekend

but you didnt returned. :D

i dont speak with you :rolleyes: :D
[LG Optimus Black] N00BY0815:
Woops, sorry... I think I even remember this... But you also gotta see, how many PMs I get daily :p hard to keep an eye, on all of them. just upload it here in the thread and not in a link via PM ;)
[LG Optimus Black] tantrums:
Yea, upload here. So I can take a look at it also. :)
[LG Optimus Black] agritux:
same problem is in your rom too

wifi dont work

it is about updater script

20a 20b 20c series 20h rom
[LG Optimus Black] N00BY0815:
Upload the ROM please, noone can diagnose it simply like this :p
[LG Optimus Black] agritux:
oke :) i will. thanx.

but i dont want someone will make it.

i want to learn.
[LG Optimus Black] N00BY0815:
Of course, noone will simply fix it and reupload it ;) I think you ll get a how to fix it, if anyone can find the error... Where did you get your updater-script from?
[LG Optimus Black] agritux:
kitchen makes it

but i look into zeus's updater script too

added missing symlinks

but still much bugs

i think this problem is about symlinks

kitchen or others making symlinks

but i am looking into xbin foler or linked folder

they are not here

how symlinks preparing ?
[LG Optimus Black] N00BY0815:
You are not supposed to change the updater-script at all! I already updated that in the Build How To. Simply take one from another ROM and it should work fine ;) Kitchens updater-script is not compatible with our device. Maybe dsixda will update it once ;)
[LG Optimus Black] agritux:
i know

it is great for htc phones

but one thing

i like singapour v20 roms

other roms updater scripts work fine with v20f and before...

but v20g and v20h dont. it has bugs.

wifi gives error

fcs with system apps etc.

i think something changed after 20f

and i tried latest v20 roms

they have bugs too

such as tantrums made this fail (i think)

he made 20h flashable zip

but it has same bugs which i have

can you look into this?

it is tantrums's rom

http://d-h.st/pG1
[LG Optimus Black] N00BY0815:
And you made data, cache and dalwik wipe before flashing it? Be sure to make it, otherwise it will NEVER work properly...
[LG Optimus Black] Duumke1:
Here's a guide to cook a rom:

1-Download any rom you want

2-Put it on your phone

3-Boil some water and throw your phone into it.

P. S. This is the fast way.......

The slow way needs a little bit more effort, like finding the manuals and actually read them :)

(sorry, just couldn't resist)
[LG Optimus Black] agritux:
yes..
[LG Optimus Black] xonar_:
Just taking a previous updater script won't always work. You need to edit it manually. The format is very readable and straight forward.

Look at a nandroid from the ROM your using to look at symlinks,permissions etc.
[LG Optimus Black] agritux:
ok i looked but i cant understand something

maybe i havent enough knowladge

such as one of symlink... /system/xbin/awk

but there is nothing named awk

where did kitchen took it?

or you?

question is this: which or what things i should symlink to xbin and to bin?

i want to make it manually

i want to learn

i think if i learn, i can make a update script and convert it with kitchen to updater script and updater binary...

can you help??

i killed english :D but i hope you can understand :D
[LG Optimus Black] xonar_:
/system/xbin/awk is from busybox. I don't know anything about how the update-script should look. I just edit the updater-script manually.

Just take all the symlinks for busybox from another rom's updater-script.

Sent from my LG-P970
[LG Optimus Black] agritux:
so, for toolbox?

or there are only permissions left after symlinks (formats mounts umounts etc)

why wifi or other bugs are there?

if i restore nandroid backup, everything is ok

but if i make a flashable zip with it, bugs comes...

i said

i can make flashable zips before the singapour 20g

they works ok.
[LG Optimus Black] xonar_:
Then somethings permission isn't set correctly or there is missing symlink.

Sent from my LG-P970
[LG Optimus Black] N00BY0815:
Did you already try to fix permission and see, if it's about permissions maybe? If it doesnt fix the problem (after a reboot), I would look through the symlinks a little closer ;)
[LG Optimus Black] agritux:
fix permissions and reboot dont work

cleaned cache after that too

but didnt worked

anyway

i gave up :D it is not for me

i see :)

you make roms and we use :)

i dont have enough time and patience
[LG Optimus Black] N00BY0815:
No need to give up yet ;) I also didnt make that many myself... I only used them for myself and never published any, but it seems I was lucky and never had to change anything in updater-script ;) Maybe redy or gabwerkz/allain can give you more detailed information :)
[LG Optimus Black] agritux:
this is the rom which i made by kitchen

it gives status 0 error

it is original v20d turkish rom

only deodexed and rooted with kitchen

i searched about status 0 error

everyone says binary error...

but i dont know how to open binary file

if i use any other binary and script, i have some bugs

wifi not works etc...

if any dev have time

please take a look

so, thanks.
[LG Optimus Black] Duarte777:
Try with a updater script from a stock rom flashable .zip, of trantums for example.
[LG Optimus Black] agritux:
i tried;

if i use any other binary and script, i have some bugs

wifi not works etc...
[LG Optimus Black] N00BY0815:
Try to convert updater script to update script, then build the rom and convert it back. Then take the old updater script, replace it and resign the rom. Then it should flash just fine. Maybe i ll test it on my own at sunday or monday ;)

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] mageos:
I just rooted my DINC and have it S-OFF running TWRP recovery. I am interested in what everyone feels is the best Jellybean ROM for the DINC2 or if it is going to be best to just run ICS.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] EVoorhees:
Jellybean has bugs in it that make me go to ICS. Stick with ICS. If you are looking for some ROMs.... Check out Aeroevan's ROMs. Or MIUI, UKB, etc... Just look around the DINC2 development forum
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] JehC:
ParanoidAndroid. Has like one bug in it lol
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] gtdtm:
I've been running Aeroevan's CM10 for a while now, and I don't feel like it really has any significant disadvantages to ICS. It certainly feels like it runs smoother to me. It is also getting active development, and to me that counts for a lot.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] getinnocuous:
I'm currently running Mimicry which is ICS, was on Aerovan's Unofficial CM10 before that. I absolutely loved CM10 and it was easily the smoothest ROM I've run on my Incredible 2, even smoother than Mimicry with the V6 Supercharge (which doesn't seem to do anything, at least in my experience). CM10 doesn't have FFC or Camcorder working though, and there's a sound issue where audio will only come out of the phone speaker (not the one on the back) until you plug headphones in and unplug. Only reason why I'm back on ICS.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] prototype7:
Isn't there a rule against best ROM threads now? Even if there isn't, there's already about 20 in this forum, no need to open new ones for every possible situation.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] kwick85:
I concur

The development forum is full of roms, it is best policy to sift through responses and replies in those threads and see what you will get and what you won't get from other experiences. But I will chime in and after having run this for the past 3 days, I am pleasantly pleased.

[Hardware Hacking General] aaronmarsh632:
Hi, Im curious how the xtc clip works for unlocking the htc phones so I have been playing around with it. This is my understanding of the process ...

1 - creates the specific goldcard for the phone you are unlocking.

2 - The memory card used for the goldcard has a modded CID - the CID of the HTC phone must match the CID of the Memory Card and is generated and modded by the xtc clips software (Goldcard can also be prepared using other available tools also)

3 - the xtc software then transfers the necessary files required for the peticular handset which you are unlocking.

Now the goldcard has been created the unlock procedure can continue.

4 - At this point the sim flex can be connected to the phone, and the goldcard can be inserted.

5 - At this point I wondered why a sim flex had to be connected to the phone - I guess the phone is sim spoofed for some reason which I dont know and would like to know more about) So what I decided to do was plug in the xtc-clip and connect 1 of the sim flex's to my dits card reader. I found that every time I read the sim card (under the manage Card ID section) the 'IMSI' and 'ICCID' is constantly changing - I cant tell if these are randomly generated numbers or if there are so many in a sequence which are updated whilst the phone is being unlocked. Again I would like to know how this works/why it has to be done for the unlock process to work. - So to summarise the xtc-clip is constantly changing the simcard information while the unlock procedure is running but I dont understand why and for what reason - I havn't taken the clip apart but I assume there is a programmable simcard inside the clip which is connected to the phones using the various flex's available.

6 - when the phone is put on the hboot menu the unlock software will start after so many seconds (sometimes upto 1 minute 30 seconds etc)

7 - The rest of the process is run on the phone and after choosing the correct options the phone will now be unlocked (S-Off)

My Questions - I would like to know more about the sim card operations which are happening during the process and if any of my information is incorrect. Also if anyone has any more information on how the XTC clip works and can help me understand this will be great.

This is for educational purposes as I like to know how things work and I like to try and clone things for my own ammusment and to help me get a better understanding of things - this is why I want to know hwo the xtc-clip works incase your wondering.

also I dont know if this is the correct section of the forum but looked the most appropriate

thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] YoMaMa7467:
Hey all. I am looking to get myself this phone. From what i've read there are 2 gsm versions of this phone correct? And the penta-band version is the only one that will fully utilize t-mobiles network? I just want to be sure before i buy a phone that its the right one for t-mobile.

Thanks for your time.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Ruggerxpunk:
I bought the phone from the Play Store and I'm currently using a T Mobile SIM.

I don't recall having to choose between versions when I bought it from the Play Store website.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Herman76:
There is the LTE version and the gsm version. You want the gsm version.

The LTE version can only be bought through sprint or Verizon.

Swype'ed on my CM10 Galaxy Nexus
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] YoMaMa7467:
OK so there are only one cdma/lte version and only one GSM version. Are all U.S GSM versions unlocked?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Ruggerxpunk:
The one from the Play Store is.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] YoMaMa7467:
So only play store GSM Nexus are unlocked. Then i will have to start my search. Do the play store nexus have a different model number or a way to tell that they are unlocked?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Mach3.2:
Most gnex are actually unlock, save for some and the Japanese gnex.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] YoMaMa7467:
OK then, that confuses things a bit. So pretty much i just have o ask if its unlocked and hope they're not lying to me....
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] najaboy:
There are five different versions, two of which are CDMA/LTE. The variant that you want is the i9250. Here in the U.S., it's doubtful you'll find either of the other two GSM models, as they are limited to Korea and Australia.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] YoMaMa7467:
This was the exact information I was looking for! Thank you!

And thanks to everyone else who helped you guys are AweShum
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
If you're in the US, you should just buy it from the Play Store. Good price, unlocked, full warranty.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] YoMaMa7467:
I would, but then theres tax and shpping and warranty's dont really bother.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] YoMaMa7467:
If i would purchase new it would cost me $386.55 USD compared to 300 used with goodies.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
Well yeah if you're gonna go used to save money then that's fine. I was speaking that if you're going to buy it

new

, then go to the Play Store.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
Hardware-wise there are only 3 different versions:

1) maguro, which is GSM pentaband HSPA

2) toro, which is CDMA/LTE for Verizon

3) toroplus, which is CDMA/LTE for Sprint

While there are a few (5 I think) different model numbers for the GSM version, hardware-wise they are identical.

Most GSM devices are sold unlocked. That said, there are instructions on XDA describing how to unlock, if you ended up buying a SIM-locked device.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] YoMaMa7467:
Thanks, I got myself a play store nexus from a fellow xda er in the marketplace. Thank you guys for all your help, I will be joining you soon!
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeggen:
I'm trying to connect my Note to an Ad-Hoc connection. I'm sure there is something obvious I am missing for why I can't see the Ad-Hoc connection from my note 10.1 but can't figure it out and didn't see anything here.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demandarin:
I posted my solution in another thread here with same topic. Refer to it. But the FoxFi app is the solution to this. Google the apk because it was removed from marketplace. Install it on phone. Then install foxfi add on, on phone, that's in marketplace. Then you should be good to go. Tablet will now pick up your tethering signal. Root is not needed either(for phone or tablet). App works great on pure stock. Works fine on my pure stock SG3.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeggen:
I'm not really looking for a tether solution. I can tether to my phone just fine. I specifically want to know if there is a way to get the Note 10.1 to connect to and ad-hoc network for another reason. I do presentations and sometimes. Often I can do them right from the note using the All-Share Cast Dongle, but sometimes (due to issues w/ Dongle working with certain adaptors) I have to have my laptop connected to the projector and want to control it with remote desktop with my tablet. I want to do this without relying on my host having wifi I can use. So I need ad-hoc connectivity to connect to my laptop directly without having to lug around a wireless router.

On another note, out of curiosity I tried FoxFi and it doesn't work on my phone anyway. The built-in (stock) tether app works great and is all I need.
