[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] richlum:
Hi all,

I currently have CleaNote and Notecore 14.1.

But, I just upgraded to the Note 2, so I want to wipe everything on my Note 1 and reinstall the stock ROM to sell it.

Is the best way to do this the following:

1. Go into CWM and format cache, system, and data

2. Select reboot, then take out the battery when it fails to boot. (I don't think you can power off from within CWM...)

3. Put battery back in and reboot into download mode.

4. Flash stock ROM via PC Odin.

From what I understand, I can't do a wipe once I've flashed the stock ROM in case I get the emmc brick bug.

Thanks,

Rich

Personally I would flash a stock GB ROM with mobile Odin setting it to wipe... call it a day

BTW don't forget to manually delete your photos etc first
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SpyderTracks:
Second that, when it comes to internal storage wiping, connect to pc in mass storage mode and manually delete all files within, don't rely on stock format sd card, it quite often leaves files in there.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] antique_sonic:
I did :

1. Format usb storage.

2. Go CWM safe kernel nd wipe evrything.

3. Flash a stock Rom.

4. Connect to pc, and check all my files whether deleted or not.

Finish!

:)

Just a good advice on a good deeds.

If u sell to user, help him/her to flash safe kernel. Take philz, easier to flash.

If u sell to Samsung, no need to flash safe kernel. They will redo ur phone again anyway.

I am not responsible for anything that may come of or from this information. Use at your own risk!

Step #1)

Create security lock through Settings (pattern, pin, password).

Step #2)

Add VPN connections

Step #3)

Plug the phone in and run these commands (requires adb to be setup properly and drivers). I am sure there is a way to do this directly on the phone but this is easier for me.

Commands to remove security:

adb shell
sqlite3 /data/system/locksettings.db
update locksettings set value=0 where name='lockscreen.password_type';
.exit
exit

Finished!

For me no reboot was required and you do not have to restore pattern in order to create more VPN connections.

Optional Step:

If you decide that you want to restore the security run the one that fits you.

Commands to restore pattern:

adb shell
sqlite3 /data/system/locksettings.db
update locksettings set value=65536 where name='lockscreen.password_type';
.exit
exit

Commands to restore pin:

adb shell
sqlite3 /data/system/locksettings.db
update locksettings set value=131072 where name='lockscreen.password_type';
.exit
exit

Commands to restore password:

adb shell
sqlite3 /data/system/locksettings.db
update locksettings set value=262144 where name='lockscreen.password_type';
.exit
exit

When I restart my phone, it needs a password to access VPN menu. what should I do? I don't want to run these commands every time I restart my phone. any solutions?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] portnoy.vitaly:
does it work with exchange password policy as well?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] shauder:
Hmm did notice that before I will see whats up with that,

I am not sure but I would imagine so. I would try with pattern lock and not PIN or Password.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] sorset:
Says that "sqlite3: not found" ....

I justd used Forget password option and entered pin , then i didnt choose any options , and the pattern removed :)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Bingley:
Just tried this. Added vpn, removed lock pattern. It went back to slide, worked fine.

Rebooted, not visiting VPN settings it's asking me to enter credential storage...any ideas how I can a) get past this without wiping my wifi/vpns, or b) remove this but keep my vpns and slide lock?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] spumanti:
Same here.

Works great, thanks for sharing :good:
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Bingley:
Works for me, too, until I reboot :/

Doesn't work. Apparently it's problem with sqlite.

Any help please?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Sizzlechest:
Use Script Manager to make this done on every boot.

1. Make this a batch file:

#!/system/bin/sh

echo "update locksettings set value=0 where name='lockscreen.password_type';" | sqlite3 /data/system/locksettings.db

and save it to your sdcard

2. Use Script Manager to run it on boot and enable su (root).

3. Test it by running it from script manager and see if it runs correctly. You can try enabling PIN and it should be disabled after running this.

4. Final test: reboot your phone and see if PIN/password is disabled.

Keep in mind this gets executed after everything else, so if you try to wake your phone right away, you might still see the PIN prompt.

Another way without script manager:

1. Make this a batch file:

#!/system/bin/sh

echo "update locksettings set value=0 where name='lockscreen.password_type';" | sqlite3 /data/system/locksettings.db

and save it to your sdcard as 99pinremove

2. Run the following using adb:

adb shell
su
mount -o remount rw /system
cp /sdcard/99pinremove /etc/init.d/99pinremove
chmod 755 /etc/init.d/99pinremove
chown root:shell /etc/init.d/99pinremove
exit
exit

In 4.4 there is no such file

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] jason27131:
So I flashed both AOKP and CM10 on my T999V, which I'm using on Rogers right now (unlocked), and it connects to 3G for the first 30 min or so, but then it drops the connection and gets stuck on edge. I can't get 3G back no matter how many times I restart it. If I flash FrostyJB or any touchwiz rom, 3g never gets dropped. I'm so confused on whats going on. Is this a bug with Cm10?

Thanks for the help!

Is there software out there that companies can run and audit there phones to tell if users have rooted their phones?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TheDiabolicaL1:
Run synergy and not sweat it. TrevE **** blocked all that ****.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Addiso:
Actually no, HTC will know if you unlock by unlocking your bootloader on their site

I think Verizon knows what firmware your running when you update but I don't think it should even be a problem.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
HTC don't know that you are unlocked. Only that you requested the unlock token. Verizon does check the software but whether they know you are rooted I don't know. There is root detect in the software itself that is why Trev disabled it. What happens I don't know. Have never done an OTA on any device since I got my first Tbolt and rooted it right away. No need to take OTA. We usually get the RUU before it is ever released and the devs deem it safe or make it safe within 24 hours. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Addiso:
That's what I meant by unlocking using the site ;)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] slice2011:
Just curious as I don't want to root if they have a way of knowing you compromised the phone.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] x714x:
On the razr there is a boot menu they can go into to see if the device has ever been rooted, is currently rooted, or has been rooted but not at the moment. Ive never heard of anything on the GS3 like this

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] ninjaman1025:
Recently, my 16gb i727 memory space (for music and photos) was filled to the point I could not download stuff and my phone was laggy. I knew I had to get an sd card soon, but today I realized that somehow I had 360mb free. I do not know how this happened, since before I had about less than 30mb about. I am happy with this but I do not know how it happened and I am kind of wondering if somehow my phone deleted stuff for me or if my system storage (which has more than 1gb of memory that I could not use) gave memory. Does anyone know how or why this happened?

[HTC One X] bujart:
hi guys.

i know there is already similar case from other forum section that relates to this matter, but since this is HTC on X, i cant even get through what they r suggesting in their thread.

1st question : so lets start with Eternity wariors 2. ive download it from play store with only 3.xx mb. that means it still needs additional data to be downloaded automatically after running the games, but my problem is that the download will only appears as 0 mb / 0 mb.. and it wont move until i stopped it.

so i thought it might be some problem with Eternity wariors only.. so i try to search other game that will need additional data, so i found The Sims. but then it turns out to be the same. i try this game to my friend Samsung S3. it just works nicely.

and now. i dont know what to do.

2nd question : is this HTC one X speaker is very weak or what? because to compare with other phones that is cheaper that this phone still giving a nice sound output. or my phone is having any defect for a sudden. will there be any solution for this.

i really appreciate if we can discuss this guys. your help will be most appreciated.
[HTC One X] zuadao:
1- have you tried it through wi-fi or data connection??

2- are you talking about the loudness or the quality?
[HTC One X] bujart:
1- i tried it through wifi connection, its 5mb connection , a unifi server thats a quite good connection in malaysia. i prefer u try that game with HTC one x. i didnt know whether it is from my phone only or other htc one x have the same problem too..

2- im sorry for not detailing on this. im comparing its loudness with other phones.. so sad to realize this phone is very2 low on its loudness :crying:
[HTC One X] zuadao:
Well if its through wi fi i cant see weres the problem. Teu contacting support. Maybe some games arent available in tour country.

I can only compare this to my latest, the Blackstone and looks about the same

Hello.

I am using the latest MIUI rom on my AT&T Galaxy SIII. I am having an issue with my Google Now search results, or what I believe to be an issue.

Normally, before switching to MIUI, my results showed up in the standard Google mobile view. However, now it is showing up as this more standard web view. I have not found a setting to change this, nor other threads addressing this.

Is this standard of MIUI?

Thank you in advance.

what stock browser?

n7 stock browser is chrome.
[Nexus 7 General] Lim Wee Huat:
Are you on stock rom? It reduces the lag & improves the browsing speed of Chrome too. Try it.
[Nexus 7 General] miketoasty:
If you are using a custom ROM (Such as Cyanogen) it comes with the original Android stock browser.
[Nexus 7 General] khaytsus:
Can we please say "Chrome" and "ASOP Browser", not "Stock"?

Pretty sure the op means stock, as in what it came with by default. (Chrome)
[Nexus 7 General] miketoasty:
Except the link doesn't take you to a Nexus 7 article, which I believe is the only device other than the Razr HD that ships with Chrome as the only browser. So it would be AOSP Browser.
[Nexus 7 General] simms22:
just tried it.. using the aosp browser, it doesnt make any difference. but the aosp browser is already fast :p

Chrome is best as compare to other browsers in android and fortunately you can even speed up chrome browser by changing some hidden options.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Neverendingxsin:
Data/App

Use root explorer and navigate to the "Data" folder and then navigate to the "App" folder and they should be in there.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] STVERDI:
I've used SolidExplorer and Astro and no "App" folder is in the Data folder..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Neverendingxsin:
I don't believe either one of those allows you to access the root of your phone, but I could be wrong. That is where they should be stored.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Blue6IX:
another recommend for root explorer.

Also can be found in /data/app-private
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
It is data/app in system root not internal sd card. There is not an app folder in data on the internal card. Solid explorer works. :cool:

READ THIS POST, IT'S VERY IMPORTANT​

​

When I first got my Galaxy S III this is what I dreamed of eventually running on my phone — A ROM that has all the capabilities of ParanoidAndroid, all the features of AOKP, and one that utilizes CyanogenMod as a solid base. ParanoidKANGdroid is based off CyanogenMod source code with all the features from ParanoidAndroid and AOKP merged into the frameworks and settings. I really hope you all have a good experience with this ROM. I made my own kernel for ParanoidKANGdroid that has overclocking, undervolting, and quite a few performance tweaks. Also, under settings you will see a tab for "Update Center" which will launch goo manager which is where you can receive OTA updates for this ROM. Before I conclude I would like to thank everyone that helped make this ROM possible.

Also, here is a link to my Github which has the source for the ROM and my kernel:

If you have an issue and you want to call my attention, here's what you do:

1. Try everything you can, find solutions for yourself. Wipe caches, revert all your settings you have made, go back to your stock Kernel, factory reset if you have to or reflash the rom. Assume that the issue is on your side and try your best to isolate it.

2. Search this thread, Cyanogenmod's, ParanoidAndroid's, and AOKP's as well for possible reoccurences of your issue and hopefully solutions that may have come up.

3. If you think the issue is important enough that we should cease our work and look into it, post your issue, BUT ...

... stay friendly, do not demand anything, do not threaten

... explain your issue as precise as you can, name the exact apps and conditions that cause trouble, help us to replicate the issue right away. If we can't there's no way we can fix it and your post will simply clutter the thread

... collect evidence, keep in mind this is a developer thread so even if you are not one, do us the favor and research how to record logcat. logcat is the single most important help you can give us to resolve your issue.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Zugshad:
Hey Thebz1 ... just a curious question for you (or anyn that could answer).. so.. flashed roms here and there. .but limited to that knowledge.. right now using this one and so far loving it.. been messing around wiht it and think that I am now a Paranoid fan.... i noticed you said that PA is more "stable" than PK.. but what my question more or less goes to is "What is the difference?" like why would i want PK over PA as far as feature wise.. i know it says "Most customizable ROM..." but how so... i not all spun up on the man differences between Kang, CM, TW, AOKP.. etc... i think i know TW is the "stock" from samsung.. and i think AOKP is more or lesss "stock" from google?? I know CM took googles and then made it theirs per say with the other features.. like how SD-ext is done and what not.. maybe i just need a bit more reading on the differences.. but i was just wondering if i should stick wiht this one or if id be more happy with PA... i have PA downloaded and once i get full charge.. i think i might install it to test.. since it is more "stable" i think i might try and use it as my DD till you get alll the kinks out of this.. but must say i didnt really run into many issues.. but i think my phone doesn't like UV'ing really..or maybe OC'ing as well :(.. if any knows a link that has better answer or to educate me a bit more.. id read it.. will try and see if any stickies for the "wiki" type that I can find too.

any have a pref of the Justin inverted or the newest release of the gapps (as posted in OP/PA's OP) ? ive been using Justin on this and the T&K rom i tested.. i think there might be some theming things with inverted i didnt care for. .(black on black type things and what not). but if i read right.. inverted supposed to be better on battery or somethign?? just figured id see if there was a "better" one that has less issues or what not wtih the PA line..

sorry for rant :P

Thanks

Zug

edit: ok i "think" i might have got the top part some what.. so AOSP is google, then CM goes and makes that better. then AOKP takes CM code and some more customizations.. that sound about right? still would be intrested in the other part of Why PK over PA etc....
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Jhvoorhies:
I think the main difference between the two is the fact that this ROM has all of the extra settings. That alone makes it awesome and fully customizable.

As far as Justin's gapps, they are better in battery due to them being black. Black backgrounds save battery. I prefer the normal gapps from the OP as I have had issues with inverted. And you have to flash a new inverted every time the app updates so the theming continues. Its quite annoying.

Yea. Saying you got three days doesn't really mean much since that could be all idle. I'm interested in screen time and how the phone was used. I get good battery life while the phone isn't doing anything, but the minute i pick it up to use it, BAM! The battery starts dropping like flys :)
