[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] whatsitsnamenow:
Perhaps you should mention what format video file it is. Natively it will only allow you to transfer mp4 files. Any other files and mtp will ask if you want to convert the file. Perhaps the mtp is trying to convert the video file before the transfer. That may be the problem you are experiencing.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audiobookman:
i did have the same problem and it was down to kies, i uninstalled the driver for my note 2 and uninstalled kies, redownloaded a fresh version of kies and installed.

the problem hasnt returned.

coming from htc, kies is the only thing i really dislike about samsung products, and will make me root if i can go back to simple plug in and pc recogise it as a hard drive like it did in the end on my gtab.

Similar to dropbox but much faster. Drop box syncs the same folders. With goodsync you can choose which folder to sync with what. Secondly dropbox stores data in the air, goodsync doesnt.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SMARTPHONEPC:
What version of windows? Windows can not see the Note2 as an external hard drive-device to drag & drop to?

What about transferring the files to a micro-sdhc card on your pc then putting it in your Note2 (which you could transfer to internal memory if you want)?

Alternatively, what about uploading to Google Drive or Dropbox & downloading it to the Note 2?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] foxmeister:
I would suggest that if you are getting a message about Windows Explorer not reacting, the problem is more likely related to the PC, not the Note.

Have you tried on a different PC?

Regards,

Dave
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SMARTPHONEPC:
Also at times rebooting the PC can correct Windows Explorer issues..
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FloatingFatMan:
Is not the PC. I've seen this same problem many times since Google implemented MTP, it's complete garbage.

Windows is erroring because the transfer is damned slow that it just times out on large files. I've pretty much given up trying and just take the SD card out and plug it in to my card reader now; it's faster and actually WORKS.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SMARTPHONEPC:
Thanks for confirming that..it's what I'd first do-suggested in this case..but what about users-devices without handy external storage (uploading & downloading from cloud services)?

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] foxmeister:
Sorry, but I've transferred films larger than this without error, so I cannot agree with your findings.

YMMV, but thus far I have not had to remove the sdcard from my Note 2 in order to transfer a movie to my device. The largest individual file I've transferred came in at a shade under 2GB, but I've also transferred over 4GB total in multiple files without issue.

Regards,

Dave.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] D3_:
I had a similar issue, the fix isn't exactly something you'd think of.

Do you have the DivX codec installed on your PC?

If yes, uninstall it. Doing so fixed the issue for me.

Any mkv file I tried transferring would crash Windows Explorer until I uninstalled the DivX codec.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Yrcimim:
Actually there's a way to go back to USB Mass Storage as usual, using SGS3 Easy UMS. Developed for the SGS3, I can say for sure it works too on Note 2... I had a strang slowness issue afterwards though, so it may not be stable: YMMV. I copied a 5+ GByte video file via USB directly onto the 64 G card in the Note 2 and it worked out perfectly. SD card ExFat formatted...
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sayajoris:
Does G Note 2 support Micro SDHC card? Just wanna make sure coz it just says Micro SD in GSM Arena.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Drumpie27:
This actually solved the problem! Thank you very much!
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ajdavies91:

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HyperShad0w:
I flashed the latest CF-Root and, after using rom manager to install cwm (after rebooting into recovery i get into stock recovery 2e, flashed "update.zip" and that lands me into CWM ... for some reason i need to keep doing this to access CWM.) I try to flash the latest X-Bean rom and get "Status: 0" error msg. Googling that I find

"Status 0

This is usually caused by an incompatible update-binary in edify ZIPs. Replacing it with a compatible one, then re-signing the ZIP, will usually fix this error."

How do I fix this please?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xsenman:
look for status 0 solution in My Android Solutions

and just flash a semaphore kernel according to your ROM version to get correct CWM to suit your purpose from My Android Collections

But First powerdown, pull out Battery, SIM CARD, and EXT.SD card, press power button for a minute, than powerup without SIM and Ext.SD Card....

(Do remember to backup your contacts, data, images etc and also your EFS folder before flashing a ROM and make sure you have more than 50% battery charge before you attempt any sort of flashing.)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Er@$Er:
you have the old CWM recovery. if you are on froyo (hence the 2e recovery) update to the JVU gingerbread rom, search for it in the general version, in a topic created by ramad. Flash it with odin. search for a gb kernel (semaphore) and flash it to. Only now you will have the req CWM.

Don't forget to backup you /efs folder before this.

Don't forget to say thanks if this post helped you.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] erpurohit:
Also you have to flash the rom 3 times if you are coming from GB, ICS due to change in partition layout..
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HyperShad0w:
Thanks for your help everyone. Why does it have to be JVU specifially? And since this is a stock rom, I will lose root, correct? Can I just use Superoneclick again to root? And should that be before or after flashing gb semaphore kernel?

Thanks
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jebise101:
I installed CM10 M2 yesterday and it's amazing and seems very stable so far. But there are a few things I miss about the stock ROM.

1.) The slider lockscreen were you can have the slider with the quick shortcuts and weather and then you get the security screen. Is there anyway to have both on CM without using an app like widget locker. I will be happy to have the default google/CM slider screen

2.) Stay awake, any good apps in the play store?

3.) The notification bar, in stock if you swipe your finger from the top of the screen in a full screen app (like when playing a game or watching a movie) it would bring up the notification bar for a few seconds within the app. This was very handy to have and hope an app can bring this back or a CM mod.

Good news for Samsung - the USPTO has tentatively invalidated Apple's rubberbanding patent that all 21 Samsung devices listed in last summer's lawsuit were found to be infringing on. USPTO invalidated the patent on two counts, stating that both are cases of prior art that existed before Apple claimed them.

http://www.engadget.com/2012/10/23/foss-uspto-invalidates-apple-rubber-banding/
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Sir_Brizz:
Good news. Hopefully this will happen with the other ridiculous patents.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] HiKsFiles:
Agreed... and this is not just limited to Apple by the way!

Google, Samsung, HTC, Microsoft... all of them are holding ridiculous patents that should be invalidated.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Sir_Brizz:
Agreed, hundreds if not thousands of them. But hopefully they won't all be taken away until the most egregious litigation offender has no more teeth or they all get taken at the same time.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] kgbkny:
Has the most ridiculous patent of them all ("rectangle with rounded corners" design) been invalidated yet?

I can see "slide to unlock" being invalidated as well.

Part 2: Fetching sources

--

​

Repo is a repository management tool that was built on top of Git

.

Repo unifies the many Git repositories when necessary, does the uploads to the revision control system, and automates parts of the Android development workflow.

Repo is not meant to replace Git, only to make it easier to work with Git in the context of Android.​

More information on the subject can be found here.

In our context, we need to download repositories of the correct Android branch (ICS, JB etc) for which we want to build.

But whose branch?

That is completely upto you to decide.

The first step is to 'download and install the repo binaries'. Issue the following commands in terminal -

$ [B]mkdir ~/bin[/B]

$[B] PATH=~/bin:$PATH[/B]

$ [B]curl https://dl-ssl.google.com/dl/googlesource/git-repo/repo > ~/bin/repo[/B]

$ [B]chmod a+x ~/bin/repo[/B]

With this done, we now make a new folder in our home directory where we would be downloading our rom sources by initializing the relevant repo

$ [B]mkdir myrom[/B]

$ [B]cd myrom[/B]

For CM10

$ [B]repo init -u git://github.com/CyanogenMod/android.git -b jellybean[/B]

For AOKP

$ [B]repo init -u git://github.com/AOKP/platform_manifest.git -b jb[/B]

You will most likely be prompted for certain details like name, email etc. Fill those in and proceed to the next step.

Once you have the above completed ( repo has been initialized in /....) it is time to sync! :good:

Simply issue the command -

$ [B]repo sync[/B]

You might have come across variations like

$ repo sync [B]-j4[/B]

or

$ repo sync [B]-j16[/B]

Essentially, all are performing the same function. Only difference is that by adding that little -j(n)

we are specifying how many jobs we want to run concurrently, which is in a way directly related

to the number of cores powering your machine.

I have a quad-core, he has a dual-core, what should we use?

Go ahead and see for yourself.

Your first sync (rather a download) would likely take around 45 minutes to 1 hour, if you have a decent internet connection.​

The first time I decided to do this, I wasn't aware of how big the repositories could be, or what sort of an internet connection one would require.

As long as it was an unlimited data plan (yes we have limited data plans in our country), it would be fine I thought.

I had the screen active for around 6 hours without any signs of stopping, until I was finally put out of my misery by good friend antiochasylum -

Sit back and enjoy.

Do not get all tensed if the text on your screen suddenly stops moving OR is stuck at some place.

Unless and until you are back to the bash shell with a definite error message explaining why repo sync was interrupted - you are all good. :laugh:

While setting up Ubuntu via VM for windows i am able to run though entire installation procedure but getting an critical error after i restart when the installation is complete..

sorry, this may not be exactly related with the topic directly but i thought i might find my answer here..

What would the error message be? I mean what exactly does it say?

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] toxicthunder:
It seems he SATA controller in your VM has only one port configured and is unavailable to make hotplugging work.
​

Make sure you are not trying to run your installation from a Guest/Limited account.

Also, in case you're trying to run Ubuntu from a CD instead of copying files to the the hard disk, you may face some problems.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] sunny2303:
Thanks this solution worked :) You were right the isse was with SATA controller.. I had not assigned it. After assigning it under settings, it worked.

Now I have moved slightly ahead... at the path setting stage

export PATH=${PATH}:~/<folder_name>/tools

export PATH=${PATH}:~/<folder_name>/platform-tools

export PATH=${PATH}:~/bin

while we are writing this in .bashrc are we supposed to replace <folder_name>/ with actual folder name? like say extracted folder name is android-sdk-linux which is placed under home.. so should we write <android-sdk-linux> ?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] toxicthunder:
You have to replace <folder_name> with the name of whatever folder you got after extracting.

e.g -

export PATH=${PATH}:~/[B]android-sdk[/B]/tools
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] sunny2303:
Thanks... so kind of you.. Issue resolved.

Moving ahead in the last leg of part 1...

When i am trying to run the code given for remaining packages and libraries n dependancies..

Any suggestions?

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] sunny2303:

$ [B]chmod a+x ~/bin/repo[/B]

After this step, You might need to reboob your PC. Actually I would just go ahead and do it anyway. Before syncing. Otherwise you might get crazy errors.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] sunny2303:
I lost my net connection during repo sync.. do i have to restart it all over again?

Edit: am sc#ewed.. had to restart laptop due to some network error.. which i beileve was because of high memory usage.. Today's session over.. will try tomorrow
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] toxicthunder:
Not screwed actually.

When system disconnects or anything, you can always come back and do a repo sync again
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] sunny2303:
Will it start from where it left?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] toxicthunder:
in a way, yes.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] sunny2303:
From what stage should i start again? I mean in terminal?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] antiochasylum:
If you were in the middle of the repo sync, just do the repo sync again. It will grab everything it needs in due time.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] toxicthunder:
yes.

also, google the "screen" command
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] sunny2303:
Ok.. thats a relief..

K.. will do that
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] sunny2303:
Have goofed up in repo sync... after my net connection went down first occasion and i had to restart repo sync i did it for aokp (originally i was doing for cm).. realised it after a while... now i wish to delete the whole stuff and start fresh... since i want cm only for the moment... if i delete contents if myrom dir is it enough or have i done a blunder beyond that?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] toxicthunder:
Whatever you do inside your ROM directory won't affect the build environment.

If you delete your said folder, it will only delete the source specific files. Simply create a new folder again and start from the step where you initialize the repo.

U said descent connection repo download will finish in 45 mins to 1 hour.. how much will it take with miserable connection. I am doing it since yesterday.. had to restart the process 3-4 times or may b more as net connection gives up due to high memory usage.. my actual download speed on an average would be 200 kbps.

I have no probs waiting but i just want to know how much time it may take..

PS: there are no errors reported so far..
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] toxicthunder:
You simply cannot think of building that way. It is good that you are ready to wait - but consider this -

1. You start repo sync today.

2. At your speed it gets done by Tuesday

3. In the meanwhile - Today, monday etc - there are innumerable new merges.

Who would want to flash a rom that isnt up to date? :(
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] sunny2303:
Ok...

rm -rf myrom

No choice for me that means..

Edit: I better do what i can.. testing. Some other day when sea starts giving me whisky... Thanks for knowledge sharing btw. I will still keep reading this thread... Good luck.
