[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] futiless:
Helllppppp : Pleaseeeee : I beg the forum :(

Well I think it was ::: [ROM|04/11] - █ M1UI 2.10.26.v2 █ - MIUI based on CM10! :: But I could be wrong, it was one of the MIUI Nov releases... this phone has so many builds compared to my note i717 which no where near the dev work this phone does .....

but...

really what does it matter... it would seem that it had something to with the formatting the data, even cache seems faulty for a while as I would use CWM's and run data factory format and manual format it would hang for 3+ minutes on the data partition in the stock recovery for example... then reset and go into a boot loop... In the end it wouldn't even mount/unmount data ... Not understanding the potential of a hard brick (still not sure how formatting data causes a hard brick) assume it has something to do with the kernel and this bug though. I tried restoring to a backup .... I SHOULD have used opportunity to flash in download mode with ODIN in a new kernel I think... but I didn't know any better and was at that moment sweating and feeling like crap because I caused or what I did exposed a weakness in his phone....

but... now what ... is it possible that the memory is actually damaged or being this is the i9100 (m!!!!) from Bell Canada is it possible that it is the so called (no Cap erase) bug that some people had.. This unit is one of the first revisions (bought from Bell last Aug)..... So I assume that is what the problem is...

The guy who did the JTAG... was only for 50 bucks.. I opened it he did soldier the JTAG pins.. but he had no luck flashing and told me the EMMC was toast... which leads me to the idea of the .pit files... I am thinking of getting my own RIFF box and doing it myself but because I am in such a tech savy city now there are tonnes of guys willing to do it ... but I figure very few know about the .pit files etc.

DOES SOMEONE HERE know about the .pit files ... ? Does this problem depict a screwed up partition table ? If so what's the easiest way to save some memory 16 gb.... ? not to suggest I am greedy would be happy with 8 if the thing would just turn on.... also maybe I did the resistor wrong should I buy a usb dongle ?

Ohh and assuming it has the bug is there a safe way to rid it of the bug ?

and one other huge question ... Can I just replace the EMMC ? are they for sale and/or the system board ?

:eek: so confused please help me ......:crying: :crying: :crying: :eek:

Does anyone know where I can get a motherboard replacement assuming the emmc is not field replaceable or even in stock...

And can we all say conclusively that there is no help for flashing in a different .PIT without ODIN ?

Take a look at this utility just released for the RIFF-BOX... I speaks directly to the ability to adjust the through JTAG partition tables and .pit files.

http://www.jtagbox.com/jtag-news/ri...ocessing-plugin-emmcdiskpartitions-dll-v2-00/

It seems like there is hope for me with 8 gig .pit after all !

BTW: Would be great... I once saw a site selling the EMMC for it but I couldn't be sure it was socket able and it said no refund so I question if it is OK or bricked....
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] futiless:
Seems a bit harsh when you consider I used CWM's and had no idea about how a formatting a partition could affect any other partition than the one being formatted... I assume not being a developer myself that mostly bricks occur when reading could help you avoid it. I only was able to discover the problem by looking for information regarding a 'hard brick' which I wasn't contending with until after the fact... I assumed it was an issue with the CWM's build and the recovery software itself...

You are welcome to your own opinion about my behavior. But what gets me is that you see no value in offering any valid input to the thread.

[Guide] – Deleting Google Play Store Download History​

​

Sometimes, you download an application because you find it interesting and then finally, it don't need or like it or more (it arrives very often), or you have just changed of rom, of version of Android. I've got a lot of apps, between my changes of terminal, the articles of test for a French blog etc...It's really easy and fast to download some free apps.

In brief, for the most ancient, you must have an important download history :silly:

For awhile now there’s been a way to delete the free crapware from your download history, but not many users are aware of the feature. For your benefit we’ve provided a handy step-by-step guide to getting rid of the apps from your download history that you’re confident you won’t be revisiting in the future.

On first you need the last update of Google Play Store apk, which is 3.10.9, Especially don't say “why I do not have do it earlier ????”. For the simple one and good reason which this functionality is very recent.

=> Open the Play Store App on your device.

=> You’re going to be presented with a list of all your currently installed apps, and below that you may see a list of apps ready for update.

=> Tap the options button in the top-right corner of the screen and select ‘My Apps’ from the drop down menu.

=> Swipe from right-to-left to bring up the ‘All’ screen.

=> From here you can delete the history of any free app you have downloaded. Simply tap the circle with a line through it above the word “Free” in the app list.

=> If you want to select multiple history entries just hold down on the app until you feel the short vibration. Then go through the list and select the other free apps you want to remove.

=> Tap the circle with a line through it in the top right corner if you have multiple items selected and you will be prompted to select ‘OK’ or ‘Cancel’ to confirm your removal.

​

You’re done! The app list should now refresh, and it should be missing whatever you selected for removal.

Maybe it will be long for some download history. Mine was new and fresh after 2 hrs :victory:

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Killiandros:
Apologies in advance if this is more appropriate in the Themes & Apps section, however this is a question so I thought it should be here.

I've been looking at how to customise a couple of things in TouchWiz to achieve the look I want but also balancing functionality.

Specifically, I'm trying to do the following:

1) Different wallpapers set up for each screen.

I have looked at Multi Picture Live Wallpaper but based on what the dev. has advised, this does not appear to work on ICS so that rules it out at the moment.

I'm also not necessarily keen on using an alternate launcher (tried Nova) because removing the S-Pen doesn't trigger anything when removed with Nova as the launcher - and that's something I'd still like to have working.

2) The icons on the bottom row / dock of the launcher. I would have thought they were customisable but they don't appear to be. The instructions that I found suggested you need to open your app drawer -> Menu -> Edit and you should be able to drag/replace items in the dock area. However, when I try to do this it doesn't seem possible.
​

For context, I was inspired by this: http://mycolorscreen.com/2012/11/23/white-serenity/ and want to take some of the ideas and apply them to my Note2.

Does anyone know how to do what I'm after?

Thoughts appreciated.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] foxmeister:
Can't answer your 1st question, because I don't really care much about wallpapers, but in answer to your second question, just long press on an icon in the dock and you can move it off and back on the dock. If you move other icons over the top of existing doc icons, you can create a stack.

Regards,

Dave
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Killiandros:
Thanks Dave, had tried long pressing already but it does nothing for me.

Pressing and holding icons on the homescreen brings up a message box that says "You can resize widgets, and reposition widgets, shortcuts, and folders by pressing the menu key and tapping Edit."

However, when doing so - the dock disappears.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] foxmeister:
You long press on the icons in the dock, not the homescreen.

Dave
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Killiandros:
Thanks, apologies if I was unclear but that does not work either -tried the obvious stuff first.

Is it working for you?

The only thing I can think of is that my rom may be slightly modified by my carrier (Optus, Australia) as it has some a couple of bloat ware apps and something they have done is affecting it.?

Regardless, I had a play with Nova launcher again and given how customisable it is I'm okay with giving up the S-pen pop up menu.

Still trying to figure out multiple wallpapers bit may have to compromise on that too.

Cheers for your responses.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pakure:
multi picture live wp works...give it a shot........iam using it
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Killiandros:
Thanks, I had been trying to get that working but the best I could do was getting it to display one wallpaper even though I had 5 set up.

After realising i had to also change the scroll wallpaper option in the *nova launcher settings* rather than just the Multi picture live wallpaper settings it worked correctly. Now I have multiple different backgrounds displaying.

Appreciate the responses with help guys.

(Still can't edit dock icons on the stock launcher though -which is odd -but as I'm using nova now I'm not overly concerned. )
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] onslaught86:
Interesting that you can't remove the dock icons - I do believe some people had the same issue with Optus branded Galaxy S IIIs. What a bizarre carrier customisation.

Best bet is to flash an unbranded stock ROM.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] salmonsushi:
With Optus version here too. same problem, can't find any resolution...... Is the Optus customisation team high? Why would they remove something so intuitive, so simple, and so necessary!?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Killiandros:
Worse. Incompetent.

( I kid, I kid. )

Nice to know I'm not the only one experiencing it though.

Only resolution if you want to use TouchWiz and have an Optus handset seems to be flashing another rom.

I haven't run across anything else that is a show stopper for me though and as I'm getting what I want with Nova Launcher (with the exception of the pop-up S-Pen menu when the stylus is removed), I'm reasonably happy.

This is how it's working out so far - http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=35096760&postcount=821

Edit: Thanks Onslaught - if they've done it on another handset model as you've suggested it's either a silly oversight or a silly decision.

Samsung response re changing dock

Hi folks

I contacted Samsung about not being able to change the dock. This is the response I got:

“In response to the customer’s enquiries, unfortunately we you can’t change the dock icons as they are locked in, this is actually due to a patent issue we had with another manufacturer. This is not actually a fault of the handset but a design specification. It will not be changed in the future.

In relation to replacing Google Chrome as the Internet browser, that is also not possible. The user can drag the app onto the home page so he can more easily access it. Again, the dock icons can’t be changed or replaced.”

So if the problem is limited to Optus handsets in Australian then I'm thinking this answer is a bit of BS? Anyone have one of these on Telstra? Vodafone? and have the same problem? I'm assuming everyone else outside Australian can change the dock icons?

Thanks
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Killiandros:
One of my colleagues purchased a Note 2 via grey import (thinkofus.com)

and hers does not have the same restriction so it definitely does not apply to everyone. Not sure about other carriers in Australia though.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Beeva:
If you have root access you can unlock the dock icon edit function by going to /system/csc/other.xml and find

And change the true to false

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strepto42:

I bought a Telstra branded version yesterday and it has the same stupid restriction, so I guess it's an Aussie telco thing. I have no idea why carriers think this sort of thing is a good idea, it just hobbles good technology, and annoys people at the same time.

Anyway I flashed a generic Singapore 4.1.2 firmware today and it fixed everything up (as well as getting rid of some Telstra bloatware).
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] craiigman:
If you use Nova Launcher you lose the S-Pen pop up menu? Which menu, the one where you take it out of the phone or the one where you can make a quick note? I'm getting one soon and wanted to use Nova Launcher.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Killiandros:
Thank you, you're awesome - I've decided that I'm actually happier using the functionality of Nova Launcher but really appreciate you posting a solution as there are clearly other Aussies who wanted this fixed as well.

The Quick Note pop-up appears on Nova Launcher but the extra home page that appears and takes focus when you remove the S-Pen (only via the Default TouchWiz Launcher) is lost. On reflection, I don't find it that useful as it seems to be more of an introductory / landing page for the S-Pen and when I remove the stylus it's literally just to take a note - which I haven't done much of to be honest. On the additional landing page that appears when the S-Pen is removed, the Quick Note pop-up appears on top of this as well. So in my opinion, not losing much at all by using Nova Launcher.

First screenshot is in Nova Launcher, second is in TouchWiz (already closed out of the Quick Note pop-up).
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] overjoy71:
I just got a virgin/optus Note 2 and I am trying to do the same thing by changing the icon in the dock but can't.

Curious thought on why some devices can change the icon and others can't... For those which can, is it a different model to the GT-N7105?? Maybe an early version?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Killiandros:
It appears to be whatever is in the Australian ROMs.

The model isn't necessarily different as grey imports are technically the same.

Internationally imported handsets do not have this restriction and I can confirm I've observed this myself with other Note 2's from colleagues / friends.

So basically, either flash a new ROM, use the suggestion from Beeva in this thread (requires root) or use a different launcher to get around this.

Hey,

I've flashed Omega 33.2 and Siyah 1.8 kernel.

I used 5.5.0.4 CWM recovery (didn't change the recovery, just flashed Omega and right after Siyah).

I then flashed something from Omega kitchen that I guess made some problems with the ROM, so I got in a bootloop. Not a problem - I will just flash the rom again and everything will be ok, but unfortunately I deleted the rom from my phone memory. In those situations I just go inside recovery and mount the sdcard, so I went into mounts and storage -> mount /sdcard, I connected to my computer (windows 7) but nothing happened. So I tried to install kies, but it didn't help too. I also tried the same in Ubuntu (maybe it's mass storage and not MTP because from what I know linux doesn't support MTP), but it didn't worked.

I end up taking my external sd card, putting the rom on it, and flashed the zip from the external sd card.

I don't want to do it every time I want to put something in my phone through recovery. How can I fix this problem? (Yes, I tried more than one USB slot and cable).

Thanks in advance! :)

Thanks for your reply.

Tried TWRP, CWM touch 6, but it didn't work. I tried to mount external sd card and it didn't work also. Tried windows7, ubuntu (I think it's mass storage so it should work), and another computer with windows7, but didn't work in neither of them.

Also, tried 'adb devices' when the phone is plugged in in recovery and it didn't see the device too. Does adb suppose to work when I'm in recovery? (I'm developing Android apps so I'm sure that adb is 100% working when the phone is on).

In CWM 6, I press mount /sdcard and after I press the text is still mount /sdcard (doesn't change to unmount), and when I press mount /ex-sdcard it change to unmount /ex-sdcard but doesn't appear on the computer also.

If you are on a jellybean leak you use phone info to put the phone in 3g the same way. If you try and switch back to 4g with phone info nothing will happen. To get back into 4g you goto system settings-more settings-mobile networks-network mode and select cdma/lte/evdo.
