I have rooted my phone, unlocked it via cellunlocker.

I can't boot into cwm at all. I have ROM Manager and it doesn't work.

I need to change the modem in my phone so I can use it on Mobilicty, from Rogers.

Any idea on what I have done wrong? I used Odin to flash cwm on originally.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] rruleford:
Try to Odin back to complete stock and try again with the latest cwm. Only question is y u used cellunlocker when it can be done free by following tutorial on here?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] unlively:
Could not get tgat to work for the life of me. And how would I use Odin to go back to full stock? And will that remove my SIM unlock? Yes that is a stupid question lol
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Bubba:
Have you tried to g feet into recovery using the button combo? The sun unlock ... as it's been stated before ... is like virginity ... once it's gone ... it's forever.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] unlively:
I use the button combos but only ever get into android system recovery. And it fails to mount the sdcard each time.

I remember when I was rooting the phone at one point I had to remove the battery for the root to take hold.

Edit: if anyone has kik or line and would be willing to help me in real time that'd be awesome. I am paying for a phone I can't use yet lol.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Froid:
Gonna guess its a Rogers or Canadian firmware. It reinstalls the stock recovery on boot. So the trick is to flash cwm with Odin and after it flashes, pull the battery before it boots. Use the button combo to get into recovery and flash your modem. Problem is it will still install the stock recovery on first boot so you need to remove the install script in system/etc. (Install-recovery.sh), but need root. If you're already rooted just skip that whole mess and flash twrp with goo manager or cwm with ROM manager, but go into system etc. And remove the recovery install script. Good luck

From the discussion in the [ROM][4.4.2]Unofficial AOKP for SGH-I717 [03/12] thread i saw the following:

How do i go about changing this as all I have been able to find is to make the changes at compile time?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] 440bro:
That's called build prop editing. You can download build prop editing apps, or edit it yourself.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] SilverRaven:
Thanks! I found an editor and made the changes. Have to wait until lunch to test, but hopefully it fixes the issue!

Hi there,

From what I personally know there used to be a "one click root" kinda thing that cm used to offer, but even by downloading the apk from the web it doesn't work on this phone anymore (last attempt was back on feb/2014), hence I would believe you would have to use the USB port. As for ClockworkMod, you have to install it as a .tar or .md5 file via Odin, or else I do not believe it can be flashed... although.. there are posts where people add the cmw as a .zip file and advice to flash it.. would anyone know how to do that?

Thank you in advance!

---------- Post added at 11:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:27 PM ----------

Thank you for the info! Would there be anyone that could maybe go a little deeper into this? I do understand that different kernels affect governors performance and help with charge ability and whatnot. For example, on patch_adams Beanstalk 4.4+ thread, pollution added a patch that offered three different kernels to see differences: PAC, UBER and CM. A tiny difference I saw was (for example) was that using the Uber kernel Netflix would work for about 20 seconds and then the image would freeze while the sound would still play. After flashing pollution's patch again and trying PAC, Netflix works fine (of course, I had previously installed the Xposed's Netflix workaround). I know that on patch's latest build the Kernel used now is Diablo, but I wonder if anyone can explain the difference between PAC, CM, Uber and Diablo.. or any of them?

Thank you very much in advance for any info provided!

Galaxy Gear or any other smart watches

Hi guys, I have a very random question: reading about the compatibility for the Galaxy Gear and a few other smart watches, I'm wondering if anyone would know what kinda smart watch would be compatible with our phone. Specifically, with the galaxy gear.. I read somewhere that the requirements are to run 4.4xx to have the phone sync with galaxy gear. If we run a custom based KitKat rom, would the watch then be compatible with our phone?

Any info would be appreciated! Thank y'all
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Assbutter:
I believe you have to be running a Galaxy Note 3 or S4 as samsung wants to push people to buy their new (and overpriced :p ) products to run a Galaxy gear smart watch.

It is not based simply on what version of Android you're running.

The pebble Smart watch, from what I have heard, is a good smart watch that is compatible with a wide variety of phones.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] wavv.drama:
Thank you for that! U have to be pretty much totally right as it would be a bit naive to think just a newer version of Android would be the sole requirement.. I guess I was hoping for it Lol. I hadn't heard abt the pebble watch so I'll definitely look into it. Reason I asked was because I was browsing in eBay and saw next to the galaxy gear a smart watch called cookoo and it made me curious. It's pretty nice and seems a fun watch, but I don't think it would be compatible since it needs at least bluetooth v.4 to sync via the playstore app. It isn't possible to update bluetooth versions from the current version 3 to 4 is it?

Thank y'all

I got into the AOKP thread for info and bumped into a member who was able to pair his gear with our OG note. So I decided to dug deeper and deeper and found another thread with a new custom ROM for the watch:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2573449

Just wanted to update in case anyone was interested, seems that when the watch runs with that rom it is compatible with pretty much any Android phone.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] MadnessG:
Not sure if this is what you're looking for, but doing some quick research myself, it seems this phone has dual-band Wi-Fi 802.11 b, g and n support. Hope this helps!!

Yes, thats the same info I find on the Google but it doesnt tell me who's the chip maker & model number (i.e BCM4329 or RTL8789) :(
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] delawaredrew:
Maybe this pic from ifixit.com will help. Not sure where on the mobo the wifi chipset is but you can read the numbers on many components if you know where to look.

Edit: There are a lot of pics on ifixit of components of our phones, I think the wire antenna is the wifi antenna (and other radios), but it is unclear where it attaches, might be the same sub-board that houses the usb connector. Hope one of the pics helps.

Can you use a terminal emulator app and open a linux window and issue a command?

Like in windows command prompt "ipconfig" gives you the information.

I found this, it may be able to help:

android.stackexchange.com/questions/13548/how-do-i-find-out-what-wifi-chipset-my-phone-has

Seems if you run a command it will actually work, like a gent above mentioned:

Well without some specialized program, there's always dmesg.

Turn on wifi, then run dmesg in a terminal/adb shell/ConnectBot. Towards the end of the file you'll see debug statements about your wireless.

dmesg | grep -i lan can be useful if you have busybox installed.

I get lines like this:

TIWLAN: 1251 PG 1.2

tiwlan0: no IPv6 routers present

The first one isn't interesting on its own, but the second one screams "network adapter" due to driver naming convention for network adapters. "tiwlan0" is closer to OpenBSD's naming convention than Linux's (Linux native drivers would just call it wlan0) but...not unexpected.

Hope it helps!

Thanks again for this thread. I've noticed when my no SIM bug occurs, I also have to re-input my password for wireless networks. I already used odin and went back to stock. I also replaced my SIM reader and usb port (usb had been bad for a long time). When I used odin it went fine but it didn't seem to wipe everything. Did I miss a recommended checkbox that might help me here? No SIM bug is killing me. 1-10 reboots normally gets me back in business until I restart, shutoff, or swap batteries. I've also witnessed the occurrence as I'm dialing a phone number.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jayinc11:
I just flashed the new ver. 3.1 LiquidSmooth 4.4.3. Unlike in the previous ver. the first thing I did after booting into rom was set privacy guard to enabled by default. So all apps I installed found the guard on. The issue now is anything I do that triggers the dialogue box "complete action using" cannot execute because what is supposed to be the selectable choices do not appear. Sometimes the check box is on there sometimes it is not, but the result is the same i.e. a blank dialogue box. So I cannot change the wallpaper photo, edit a text file, photo, in file manager clicking on a photo I should get option to view using inbuilt view or gallery but options are blank, etc. I have gone into privacy guard to enable these disabled functions, turned it off completely but the result is still the same. I do want to keep privacy guard on and I want to have normal usage of these functions. I am at my wits end here as to what I should fix this/

.

These are the options I have in privacy guard filter set to show inbuilt apps (I thought this would produce all system apps but this is all there is)

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Bubba:
Screen on will always consume a lot of battery on the Note. Best thing is to turn it down to the lowest you can handle. Screen off, try Wakelock Detector from the playstore. It is a great tool. A lot of the battery monitoring apps cause there own drain and wakelocks.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] wavv.drama:
From personal experience, the wakelock issues can be fixed changing the governor (if you haven't) to wheatley. I've read on patch's BeanStalk thread that choosing that governor fixes the locks. Depending on your kernel (although patch is using Uber I believe, hence the gov is there along with OC'ing). If not, you could always flash p0llution's patch -------> http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2239453 and chose a diff kernel of your choice along with having wheatley as the default governor if you chose UBER. The patch has worked for me always, so it's a good idea to try always.

Hope it helps!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] mcavity:
I did use the p0llutions patch - using uber. and i am getting deep sleep now.

Beanstalk youtube issue?

Hey I had beanstalk on my noteI717 and I liked it a lot, however i couldn't find a fix for youtube or camcorder playback. These two things are important to me.

I am currently on liquid smooth but Im having flicker issues like crazy even though I used Pollutions Rom Patch and lots of 'unfortunately google play store has stopped' over and over again when using fb.

I wouldn't mind going back to beanstalk if I could have the video items back.

If anyone could point me towords a thread that has answers to either of these I would be forever thankful.:o
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jayinc11:
Are you using the PP ver. 2? or the latest flicker patch, i think ver. 4?

Was on BS too loved it, but after some issues decided to try liquidsmooth. Everything is fixed, video, flicker etc. Try it out

Use the version PP 2. If you get flickers, use the ver. 4 of flicker patch. Worked for me.

As far as video I was having cracking sounds or breakages in youtube playback - that was my only issue with LS. Installed SuperTube and it's playing great. Recorded videos play back in gallery, no issue there but I am sure you can find find a reliable dedicated video player.

Good luck!

P/S

You can edit the build.prop file. There's an entry on the LS thread a couple of months back. Or just search the site, just can't get to the links right now.

lock screen issue

I installed the new Slim 4.4.4 ROM the other day and I'm having a problem with my lock screen. It locks/unlocks fine except for the screen will sometimes stay black but my soft keys will light up. I then have to re-lock the phone (soft keys go dark) and try unlocking again. If I'm lucky it will only take one cycle of locking/unlocking to bring the screen up, but on occasions the screen will stay black and I'm forced to restart my phone.

Any tips? I've searched a bit through google/xda forums but have no luck finding this specific problem.
