Wireless battery Charging

Well after a few days of testing I can finally say it works but its slow at charging like all wireless charging systems. Here are the items you will need

1.A wireless charging pad

2.A wireless charging receiver (cost is $60 to $70 on ebay for both items 1 and 2 as a set)

3. Copper tape or very small gauged wire (I used the copper tape)

4. Soldering iron around 30 watts should be enough.

5.Magnifying glass

6.Black Electrical Tape

7. You tube a video on how to tear down the note 2

8. A multi meter will come in handy not needed but its recommended

You will need to take the gold tabs off with the receiver tab because they are to big and the case will not close.Remember not to make the metal tabs to big with the copper tape it may take a few tries but you will get it . Look in my signature for my Google Drive xda shared folder for high resolution pictures.

Here is the post where I got the idea it can happen I just modified it a little to my taste Tmobile mod note 2 wireless charging Thanks vinas1

Here are the pictures of my phone Ntt Note 2 phone

Any troubles post

Yes only ASOP roms have the no vibrate or flash issue.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Robobob1221:
You mean that we can use or this ^^^?

Basically most roms in the n7105, the at&t and the t-mobile forums we can use.

Be sure to check that the ROM you flash DOES NOT contain a modem or if it does delete it. Also check the apn-conf have the required ones from our ROM's apn-conf.

If its TouchWiz based you will need to switch the kernel with either our stock/rooted one or the KBC Developers one. Or else vibrate/flash will not work like AOSP based.

Hey everyone.

I'm the proud owner of a new Galaxy Note II SC-02E that I bought from a buddy who suddenly had to change to another network. (his work made him do it)

I'm still on softbank, so I rooted using the vipsavior method and used the dialer ## code method to SIM unlock myself so I can use it on Softbank's 3G network. I'm anticipating switching to Docomo in the future (maybe in a month or two) but there are certain things like Felica and Wifi Hotspot that will not work without a Docomo SIM in this phone. I don't care so much about the Osaifu-Keitai stuff for now, but since I also have a tablet, I would really like to be able to use wifi tethering. Is there a way to turn it on? It seems to turn off mobile data whenever it's active, meaning there must be some special APN needed. Where can I change that config file in root so I can use it without a Docomo APN?

For anyone using market enabler it no longer works.It seems to be IP driven now. So you will neen a vpn to access other countries play store. A free one user kuitro found was one click vpn. There are other vpn apps this is just one of many.

Ok can someone help me I am a bit of a noob when it comes to flashing. I have rooted and flashed the rom with the docomo bloatware removed but I have noticed a severe drop in battery life. Is there a good rom to flash that is fully functional and has the spen features maybe even 4.2.2. I used cm on my old phone and loved it but I dont think cm supports spen or multiwindow. Any suggestions and if I have to do something special for a rom like removing a modem then please walk me through it.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vipsavior:
which rom version did you use? You may need to reset the battety stats there is a free program on the market place.

Anyone know which docomo app controls the tie-in to the google play store to be able to buy apps and have them charged to your docomo account?

I've frozen everything that has anything to do with docomo and when I tried unfreezing them once the payment option docomo never came back to the play store

Thanks in advance!
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Robobob1221:
Have you tried clearing data from the Play Store, download manager, and service framework after defrosting everything?

Then rebooting.

On another note KBC developers have a kernel for AOSP on their github wiki

I haven't tried yet but I will later tonight

Its experimental but could be good:good:
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pseudosmurff:
I did a factory reset and still didnt have the option, and then thought maybe I'm skipping an obvious requirement of creating some docomo account or something?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Robobob1221:
Still not got it fixed?

Might be an idea to go back to stock and update to the latest firmware and then use the KBC method rooted system.img.

It leaves a lot more of the things intact.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] starrwulfe:
^^ I second everything that he just said from experience. My NFC stuff wasn't working at all, but when I went ahead and reflashed using the KBC stuff it works like a charm. Make sure to get the full download. There's a one-click method in there as well. You'll save yourself a lot of pain and suffering
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Robobob1221:
KBC Wiki has CM10.1 up with support for the SC-02E for anyone interested in some AOSP styled goodness!! If anyone wants to check it out, push notifications on sp-mail working, felica, one-seg working it says

Sounds good, I'll try that soon, thanks!
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dude496:
I've been meaning to respond to your question, but keep getting busy with about a billion different things lol. If you are using a softbank sim card, make sure that both settings are correct for the apn (settings, more settings, mobile networks, access point names) and also the apns-conf.xml (use a root style file explore like efs explorer and go to /system/etc/ and scroll down to apns-conf.xml) There are several different softbank apn's, so you will need to find out which one your sim card uses (iphone 5 uses jpspir) If your APN is set incorrectly, you have a high possibility of getting a phone bill that will make your jaw drop! Also, don't assume that it is set correctly because you are getting data...several APNs will work, but only one is the proper one for your sim card.

I'm currently on MC2 and market unlocker pro still seems to be working for me...only thing that I have noticed is that I need to turn it off before I reboot the phone...or if I forgot to turn it off, I have to restore it to the default market and then change it to a different market. I can't remember where I got the apk from...but if you can't find it, let me know and I'll figure out how to upload it.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] starrwulfe:
Thanx, but I just switched over to DoCoMo 2 days ago! I was already being raped by Softbank and I need Docomo's coverage.

Here's another question though: Is it possible to use the native MMS app instead of SP-Mail? Why does Japan's carriers insist on using crapware from Cupcake days to handle SMS/MMS when there's a perfectly decent native app???

Advice

Hi all,

I'm thinking to get the SC-02E, I will be using it in Hong Kong and Canada. I'm wondering if anyone would answer some the questions I have, any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

1. I'm going to stay with the stock rom, I will root it though. Am I able to update to the latest firmware with Kies if I'm not in Japan? Kies seems to lock with the IP or carrier network.

2. Is a regular stock rom for Note II compatible with SC-02E? Let say if I decide to flash it with a stock UK rom later.

3. I will type a bit of Japanese from time to time, I'm using Semji right now, some people claim the Samsung Keyboard is much smoother. Is that so? Does it support Japanese handwriting?

4. From what I found online if I have a Docomo phone and sim, I will be able to download Japanese Apps on Wifi connection outside Japan.I will get an expired sim from Yahoo Auction. Does it really work?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Robobob1221:
Personally I wouldn't get a Japanese Note 2 unless you plan on using it in Japan. You'd be better off getting the international Lte version.

There's a way to port the Japanese Samsung keyboard, and I'm pretty sure some people use a market enabler to access other countries apps.

1. Kies should work or you can download firmware from SamMobile website.

2. System should be fine; kernel/boot.img, probably will not be fully compatible as hardware vibrate and flash won't work unless on a Docomo kernel.

3. I believe it does

4. I'm not sure
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Grant Barker:
Sorry If I'm very late to the party but I noticed that Facebook Home is now showing up on Google Play for our devices, for those who are curious.

Personally I won't be using it, but had looked for it about a week ago and it wasn't showing up as available for us then.

Like I said, sorry if this is old news to some of you who have tried it already on your SC-02E.

It's not my thing personally, but I was curious and only just noticed it listed.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Robobob1221:
KBC Kernel

KBC github wiki has been updated again, main things are the kernels:

Change

Fixed a bug where the camera does not start

The following additional features:

bootanimation / bootsound / bootmovie support

Governor added (number) Defult is sakuraktive.

Visualization of hidden partition

deviceFaker support

GNT2eXtremeTuner support

(Corresponding to the operation when flashing custom recovery) Felica improvement

Linux kernel 3.0.73

linaro compiler 2013.03

I've just flashed it now and all seems good. Has anyone tried out the AOSP stuff from them yet? I haven't really had much time to try it out just yet

EDIT: Schedulers and Governors added to the kernel are nice and wide array of choices.

Edit2: I'm running the aosp kernel and it works as it should. Not using the cm10.1 rom though, running Xylon.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lazyfion:
i am using the SC-02E_ AciDetoxV2 Normal now. how to flash back to stock rom? thanks><
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Robobob1221:
I believe there's a video on here somewhere by vipsavior.

But first d/l stock firmware, I got a link on here to the latest one.

From recovery clear all data, then you'll wanna boot into download mode and flash the stock firmware through odin.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lazyfion:
do i have to root again after flash back to stock firmware through odin?:confused:

thanks~:o
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Robobob1221:
Yes.

Use the rooted img I posted a few pages back the mc2 rooted image, and then go to the kbc github wiki in the link in my signature, the note 2 links, and get the latest Samsung kernel they built. Everything works if you follow the instructions they got there. It's in Japanese but translate will help you if necessary.

I'm running stock rooted with that kernel and everything runs well!
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qit46:
Even vibrate and flash?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lazyfion:
the Rooted MC2 System.img link didnt work... "Sorry, the owner hasn't given you permission to download this file."

and i downloaded the latest Samsung kernel they built but cant find the instructions :confused:
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Robobob1221:
Really, I've the img open to those who have the link. I'll check when I'm home.

As for the kernel if you want osaifu keitai to work download the extreme tuner in the wiki and back up the key.

Then flash the kernel in odin then laid the key you backed up. You need the rooted image though.

Maybe someone closed the link :-\ not me
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Robobob1221:
Both kbc kernels, stock and aosp, have everything working, including vibrate and flash. If you run aosp and want osaifu keitai, spmode push, Japanese emoji and one seg you need to run the cm 10.1 in the git hub wiki.

The lead dev I believe is sakuramilk.

Like I said previously check the link to the github and there is a changelog of sorts/description of the kernel
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elfwine:
Does anyone have problems with internet connection of SC-02E? It seems that my phone only connects to the internet whenever I wake it up from idle mode.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qit46:
Try going to Wifi advanced settings and set it to never sleep.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elfwine:
Sorry if I didn't specified the internet connection thing. It's not the Wifi connection, it's the LTE/3G connection. I think few seconds or minutes after it goes idle, the LTE/3G connection lost. It always happened when I upgraded applications and left my phone unattended. I searched settings for this but I couldn't find any.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Robobob1221:
Where are you when this occurs?

I've noticed dropped signal when on the train and sometimes in certain cities inside buildings. Could be bad coverage.

E.g when I'm at work in Matsudo, my signal will fluctuate between lte, h+, constantly. A major pain. I think this might be docomo service or else poor radio.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elfwine:
It happens to me most of the time, anywhere I am. I thought this is a restriction of docomo service or of the phone itself. With that, I can not receive notifications or LINE messages/calls on time. Also, whenever I wake up my phone from being idle, I notice that the LTE/3G icon will appear for few seconds then disappear again, wait for about a minute and it will appear again, so I can't use instantly an internet upon waking up my phone. This is kinda frustrating as it takes about a minute for me to have an stable LTE/H/3G connection. I took it to the Docomo center, and they just told me to clear the internet cache which I did several times but that didn't help.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Robobob1221:
Are you running any particular task killer, battery saver, or something like greenify?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elfwine:
I don't have a greenify app as such and my Note 2 isn't rooted yet.

I have Go TaskManager EX app but I don't think that will cause a problem as I also have that app in my S2.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Robobob1221:
Sounds like something is causing your radio/modem to hibernate or something when the screen is off. Why I wondered if you had a battery saver running or something, that might do this.

Which firmware are you on if you're stock, the latest MC2?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] martindesu:
Is it worth getting the Docomo variant? Does it *need* a ROM, or are people in general happy with their device?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Robobob1221:
I have no complaints with rooted stock. I've been able to add root apps & certain mods as I've wanted.

I'll add if you're looking to add some of the system mods you find in these forums you'll probably need to port them to our firmware, and also go about making a deodexed rom. But anyways
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] martindesu:
Cool.

What version OS is stock up to now, I.e. from Docomo.

martindesu.tumblr.com
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Robobob1221:
Still 4.1.1, but from what I read there isn't really any difference between what we have on 4.1.1 and what others have on 4.1.2. I could be wrong, but all I've really seen added to those on 4.1.2 is multi window and the kernel fix. I haven't checked properly to see if that exploit has been patched. I may have missed something but other than bug fixes and the likes I don't think there's anything else until 4.2, which isn't out yet.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] martindesu:
Thanks :)

I'm thinking of going for the internation version if I do get one, as then I don't have to worry about waiting for Docomo.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Robobob1221:
Cool. Be aware you probably won't be able to use osaifu keitai if you do, and I don't know if int'l nfc works here. Others might be able to tell you.

The plus side will be if you decide to use custom roms, kernels, you should be able to use them no problems. Unlike docomo ones which need to use kbc devs kernels, which are good none the less.

On that note, for others check out the kbc wiki for updated kernels for Sammy and aosp and also updated CM10.1!
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] martindesu:
Thanks! I don't really use NFC here currently, as I can't get a credit card to use auto charge suica, and the other features aren't too important to me. I'd rather have an easily moddable phone.

Would you recommend getting the N7105? Could I then use LTE on Xi?

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Robobob1221:
I don't know about the lte radios used in the int'l version and the docomo one, sorry. Have a look on one of tech websites for the radio types
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] martindesu:
OK, not sure what Xi uses. Maybe the N7100 is just easier. SC-02E is cheaper though. I'm trying to find out what the best deal is. Either way, I'll be rooting etc.

Has anyone used the cm10.1 ROM and if so, is there a way to put everything in English?

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] richarrp:
I'm looking around locale2 and can't seem to get English. The only language available in system settings is Japanese. Is there a folder somewhere where the language files are kept and I can just drop an English one in it?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Robobob1221:
Try entering a custom locale

en for English and US, UK/GB, for the region you want. Like in the image below. I think that should work.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] richarrp:
Have that a go to no avail, unless I'm doing something wrong, but I chose the same options you described. Oh well. I kind of missed CM but at least there is root :) Thanks for your help!
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Robobob1221:
I'm guessing they might have removed it from the system apps, not entirely sure.

Do you use spmode mail, or any of the other things that need the Japanese rom?

If you want to run aosp use the kbc aosp kernel with any of the roms from the n7105 or at&t forums. You'll need to add the docomo apns but that's easy enough, you can find out how in this thread
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] richarrp:
I use none of the docomo apps :) or sp mail. To be honest, no clue what it is or for. I use fb for messaging back to the states and local. I think I tried a cm10 from the 7105 and it errors out during install, but I'll give it a go again. Thanks!
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Greg_Hager:
I flipped back a few pages and found where someone was told that we could use the 7105 roms on the SC-02E, is that true? If so, I want to try to run the Team CarbonRom, as I think it's just sexy..but I don't know which one to download. Would it be the 7100 one?

Also the reply said to make sure that the rom didn't have a modem, and if it does to delete it. I'm kinda confused as to what that means and how to do it.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Robobob1221:
Don't worry about the modem comment, AOSP roms don't contain the modem I was talking about.

Use the roms for the n7105 or the t0lte both are names for the lte version.

7100 is GSM only, you don't want that.

Use apn back up restore from the playstore to back up your apns first on stock rom and then restore them on aosp so you can access data.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Greg_Hager:
Awesome, thank you very much for the quick reply!

So, what about the flash/vibrate issues I was reading about?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Robobob1221:
Ah yeah, I put a link in here for the kbc developers wiki, the link in my signature takes you to the post, and in there the sc-02e section has an aosp kernel which will work with the roms and flash and vibrate work. there is an odin or cwm flashable option, whichever is easier for you.

https://github.com/kbc-developers/release/wiki/SC02E

here's the link anyways
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] richarrp:
I've never seen a ROM have a modem attached to it. It's always a separate flash.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Robobob1221:
Some of the TouchWiz ROMs when they first came out contained the modem for whichever region the creator was from, but most have removed them or have them as a flashable/aroma option now.

But yeah one like CM, AOKP, Carbon etc never include them

The comment I made before was in reference to the TW based ROMs.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Greg_Hager:
Once again, thank you! I rooted/flashed my RAZR and Xoom a couple years ago when I was in the states...then when I got out here to Japan I went with an iPhone for some stupid reason. :/ Back with Android and couldn't be happier! Just a little rusty. lol

Thank you again!
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] richarrp:
Def was not trying to nitpick ya. This is my first non-US phone and didn't think there might be a difference. I, personally, have yet to see a ROM include a modem, but then I've been limited to samsung/sprint ROMs, since I've been flashing stuff so that's my bad. You've been way to helpful for me to come in now and start contradicting you, lol. And to be honest, I didn't see that you answered his question until after I posted. Whoops.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Robobob1221:
Sorry didn't mean to come off as narky!:p

Just clarifying what I said before was all.

Yeah was a bit different for me coming from AU and htc with CDMA network and all that.

Taken me a while to finally get the hang of stuff.

I noticed there is a 'Japanizing' script over in the kbc wiki. might be of use to those on stock or that wanna run n7105/at&t/tmo tw roms
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] richarrp:
I still feel new and lost with this phone in regards to flashing :) I try flashing the cm10.1 or aokp from the n7105 roms and it always errors out, it seems to be looking for a specific device before installing. Hmmm. It's pretty frustrating, lol.

Oh and no clue what a Japanizing script is.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Robobob1221:
I haven't flashed straight up CM or AOKP recently, but I've had no problem flashing ROMs such as Xylon, and Rootbox.

What recovery are you using?

I know that sometimes its looking for N7105 or t0lte in the build.prop so you could edit the SC-02E for product model and name or build product. I've forgotten which if any.

This might cause a few problems so back up before trying it.

The read me is in Japanese(!), but basically the script will take a custom rom zip and push the files for one-seg, osaifu keitai, and push mail for sp-mode, to any tmo, at&t or n7105 ROM. It says its experimental, but I haven't tried it out yet.

I might do later on though
