If you have the .tar file of another recovery you want (stock one too), you can flash it with Odin PC. If you got a .zip one, you can flash it with philz_touch itself.

Note 3, N9005

Hi Phil,

will you ever make your perfect Kernel for Note 3 (N9005) too? It would be so nice to have the best android kernel on the best android phone.

Thanks and cheers :cowboy::cowboy:

Hi Philz,

Wanted to know whether there is 6.0.4.4 CWM version of Philz for the Note 2? It would be terrific if there is one, and I can help if there are any developments needed to make it happen. :)

6.0.4.4 hmm that sounds good if there is any on progress
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] andrew.mackew:
Thanks for your excellent work!

@OP: First off, thanks for you excellent work.

I don't wanna bother you with one more request, however I was seeing that most devices supported by you already get their updates for the most recent CWM.

As I really love your recovery, I wonder about when you gonna give us the gift of an update. :) I think your contribution here is unique and all your users would appreciate. It would sound good, huh?

Thanks you.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] kkoolpatz:
Just wondering, there used to be a way i could scroll on the "logs" part of the area and the selected entry in the menu would still scroll. Now on the latest version, i must scroll on the menu for it to scroll,.. Could you implement that feature again? It would be very handy to scroll through the whole screen and not having to touh or accidentally press the wrong option.

Thank you.

New in v3.65 Recovery (CWM 6.0.1.9 based)

Choosing your version (test purpose)

There are 2 recovery versions: 3.65 and 3.65R

Both are based on cwm 6.0.1.9 but the 3.65R version has some regression in gui buffer features added between 6.0.1.5 and 6.0.1.9. Use the R version if you have issues with some Rom installers and Aroma file manager feature. The R build is a test version to try to find the culprit bug introduced in cwm 6.0.1.9

Each of the above 2 recovery versions is built with 2 ramdisk options: XXALJ1 (JB 4.1.1) and XXDLK7 (JB 4.1.2)

If you have exfat mount issues with the XXDLK7 version, try the XXALJ1 version

If there are enough reports from people testing all versions and giving a feedback, I will be able to continue supporting this recovery for n7100 and fix issues

3.65 XXALJ1

Any plan on supporting N7105 in the future?

I guess this is safe to flash for N7105?

Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Phil3759:
Yes but when I get more feedback on above versions. Things must be fixed first here since probably you'll have same issues on n7105
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] pongster:
Tested 3.65R LK7 and aromafm still hangs. Is there a way you can add a copy log to sdcard so we can copy the logs from recovery for you? :)

I was also looking for a way to mount USB storage and did not find this option. Is this something you can add so we can test if exfat is loaded and accessible on the PC? I'm on fat32 right now since I plan on shifting to and from CM10.1 and Stock. Is that option supposed to he other, the USB mass storage that is? It seems to be loaded as /data/media which would mean we're dependent on mtp. Hope this can be added in future versions.

Should I still test if the non R version will work with aroma since the R version was the test build that you hoped would work with aroma?

last _log:

pastebin.com/dHrCcrqJ

Let me know what else you may need.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] sunwee:
just a quick note, flashed 3.65R XXDLK7 since I am running latest 4.12 rom.

exfat still not mounted.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Phil3759:
Thank you both. The last_log file is not complete. I need the last_install file. You can copy these to sdcard in cwm:

Advanced / Report Error

It will copy all logs merged in one file under /sdcard/clockworkmod folder.

Next build I will base it completely on 6.0.1.5 which is the last version for the jellybean-stable cm10 branch.

For exfat, please try XXALJ1 build. You can try the mount in recovery menu, when trying to install a file from external SD or in adb shell which should give you full root access
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Phil3759:
No cwm supports actually mount usb storage for /data/media devices. It is on my to do list to add support for external sd on these phones.

No need to try the non R version for aromafm.

But please, can you try the LAJ1 version both for exfat and aromafm?

Since settings are related to recovery it will not alter your actual rom.

Finally, most here include dr.ketan got exfat working. So strange why it won't with you? Make sure to format on pc in exfat and standard default block size as it should work, at least in ALJ1
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] pongster:
Will test again soon. I'm on FAT32 right now since I'm testing CM10.1 :) with my kernel.

On chenglu cwm I can confirm I can mount external SD on my Mac and PC. aromafm also works on that version. Hopefully the rebase to 6.0.1.5 will fix aroma support.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] The_Steph:
Phil3759,

I just moved to Pongster's 0.10 Kernel and with an extra 1 GB SD Card that I formatted in exFAT un Windows XP SP3, it is possible to havve access to it when Android is booted but not in 3.65 Recovery (I tested both XXALJ1 and XXDLK7).

I attached a log (for XXALJ1) to this email but I doubt you'll find it interesting. Can I provide more useful information to help you solving that issue?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Phil3759:
Can any of you enter adb shell while in recovery

Then type

/sbin/mount -t exfat /dev/block/mmcblk1p1 /external_sd

And give me the output if it fails or if it actually mounts the sdcard

Then, same but with /system/bin/mount instead of /sbin
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] The_Steph:
Phil3759,

Still no luck, and here is the result:

d:\Priv\Android\Utilities\Android SDK>adb shell

~ # /sbin/mount -t exfat /dev/block/mmcblk1p1 /external_sd

/sbin/mount -t exfat /dev/block/mmcblk1p1 /external_sd

mount: mounting /dev/block/mmcblk1p1 on /external_sd failed: No such device

~ # /system/bin/mount -t exfat /dev/block/mmcblk1p1 /external_sd

/system/bin/mount -t exfat /dev/block/mmcblk1p1 /external_sd

mount: No such device

I tried an su and then the commands again but still no luck.

I tried to format the sdcard on my Note2 but it did not format it in exFAT but in FAT (as seen on Windows drive properties). I also thought that Paragon NTFS & HFS sotfware installed on my Note2 was some kind of interferences with the exFAT sdcard mounting but when i start it I have a message saying that sdcard is formated in exFAT and not mounted by Paragon) therefore my test environment is fine.

If you need any other test, please ask.

One last point, is exFAT working fine in CWM for you? If yes which kernel do you use as it may be related to ROM kernel modules if you call them?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Phil3759:
Well, exfat works fine on my only phone, an i9100. I also added it to i9300 which is very close to the n7100, hardware wise. Finally, exfat works fine for others on stock roms and this same recovery (dr.ketan tested it and reported exfat working). I just cannot figure for now why it doesn't work for the 2 people on redpill kernel while chenglu one works you say? Are you sure chenglu recovery mounts your exfat while not mine? They are both based on same ramdisk, xxalj1 if you download the alj1 version here.

Finally, the device error is strange. Like if there is an issue with the fstab... and the /dev/block/mmcblk1p1 not found at all!!

I heard some sdcards do not work well in exfat, but in that case chenglu recovery should suffer from same issue

What you can do:

- confirm if chenglu recovery mounts your exfat on same kernel and rom where mine 6.65R-XXALJ1 fails

- confirm my recovery mounts your card if on stock rom and kernel.

- others here confirm my recovery mounts their exfat card

If point 1 is true, this would be wired until I release the base 6.0.1.5 version you can test
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] The_Steph:
Phil3759,

I've never said that chenglu recovery worked on my note2, I even don't know what recovery it is :(

Please point me to it and I'll do some tests as well.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Phil3759:
Here it is

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=31911745

Feedback about above points would help me a lot
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] pongster:
I can confirm chenglu cwm mounts my exfat on red pill. At the recovery level any of the kernel stuff in redpill shouldn't affect mounting ex fat right? Red pill mounts ex fat fine while in android so I know it works. Wonder what's not making it work for us here.

I can't test for stock ROM and kernel though. For those who shave confirmed their exfat was mounted in your cwm, was it a 32 or 64 sdxc?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Phil3759:
dr.ketan confirmed it, not sure about the card. On i9300, it is ok with sdxc.

Anyway, just hope someone else confirm for stock rom. I will build a 6.0.1.5 based on same ramdisk as chenglu and we will see. The device error not found is abnormal. When fat32, the card mounts?

Sorry guys, doing my best without a phone to test. I completely rely in your tests and feedback. I did it for the s2, s3 and note, no reason it wont work on note 2.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Phil3759:
I really need the following info to debug this device not found story. Basically, it means something wrong with the mount /dev/block/mmcblk1p1

In adb shell, type:

mount

and copy paste the output log

I am mostly interested in the /dev/block/mmcblk1p1 result, but all log is helpful
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Phil3759:
CWM 6.0.1.5 based on Chenglu Ramdisk, so basically an XXALJ1.

Most difference is the reversion of /data/media code changes added in 6.0.1.9

I kept a few code parts like tar default format and sidelod flash, but those should not alter exfat

Hope this one fixes it :p

If not, please try to give me the log from adb shell mount command in recovery

[Galaxy Note II Android Development] The_Steph:
Phil3759,

First of all, sorry for having been so dumb with chenglu's recovery :)

I'll do a full set of tests tomorrow with R2 and will report with logs. Meanwhile here is the result of a mount command in adb shell when my Note 2 is in recovery (3.65 XXALJ1):

rootfs on / type rootfs (rw)

tmpfs on /dev type tmpfs (rw,nosuid,relatime,mode=755)

devpts on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,relatime,mode=600)

sysfs on /sys type sysfs (rw,relatime)

/dev/block/mmcblk0p12 on /cache type ext4 (rw,nodev,noatime,nodiratime,barrier=1,data=ordered)

/dev/block/mmcblk0p16 on /data type ext4 (rw,nodev,noatime,nodiratime,barrier=1,data=ordered)

Hope it helps.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Phil3759:
No need to be sorry. Your logs and tests are very helpful. Actually, not having the device, this leads to fixing things

Please, on actual 3.65R, can you also grab the /etc/fstab file:

adb pull /etc/fstab

and post its code here?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Phil3759:

I flashed 6.00.8 over 5.15.0 on my n7100.

I did a backup on my external sdcard with the defaut settings. The size of the backup folder looks normal (about 3Gb). I didn't restore it yet but I'm confident...

O.k. my Note 2 is on Android Revolution v18 (Android 4.1.2) with N.E.A.K. Kernel 2.2. The SD-Card is a 64 GB Sandisc Pro (class 10]. Your old version 5.15 runns perfect, i used it several times. I think there is a problem with working with externel cards. During the backup, the counter goes up to 5.8 GB but when you look in the backupfolder, there are only 4 files with a size of only 158MB. The new version 6 runns without any problems on the N8000 (also with a 64GB SD-Card) and on the I9300.

Thanks again for the great work.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Phil3759:
I need help with the following:

adb shell
mkdir -p /storage/sdcard1
mount -t exfat /dev/block/mmcblk1p1 /storage/sdcard1

# post eventual error message
# if no error, try to install a zip from external sd to see if it was mounted that way
# if error, do this:

insmod -f -v /lib/modules/exfat_core.ko
insmod -f -v /lib/modules/exfat_fs.ko

# try again the mount command above and post all eventual errors you see
# after a manual mount command in adb shell, check if sdcard was mounted in gui

Also, does stock CWM 6.0.4.5 compiled from sources work for you?

Could be you have a bad cm kernel not able to use exfat modules and with sensors

Sadly, Note 2 has no selinux enabled stock sources we can build. Without this, you cannot flash most new kit kat ROMs

So, unless a dev makes a good kernel with 4.3 sources and selinux, it will be hard to get something good for you

I could have to drop to fuse, which will give you very slow backup times on exfat cards, like stock CWM

For the delay, it is the sensors story... will see if I can find time to modify your kernel. I started to compile kernels for a few devices, but I am not a kernel dev and have no much time to start with it

Ask a kernel dev to provide good kernel sources maybe
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] maverixz:
Phil,

Not sure if you were responding to me but I am not a coder and wish I could help with the code you posted.

Yes the stock CWM 6.0.4.5 worked for me and was actually the only way anyone was able to install the PA 4.4 Kitkat without losing baseband.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Phil3759:
Ok, I will compile a version without the exfat modules, that way, you have access to external storage, but will have slow exfat speeds

Sad as all other smdk kernel based boards did work very well with the samsung exfat modules compiled along cm kernel (p51xx, p31xx, n8xxx, n5100, i93xx, d2xx, t0ltexx...). Even some msm based boards did work very well

It is the only phone failing to use ko modules compiled from sources with cm kernel

Now, if some one can test the adb commands, there is still some hope. I am not going to release many debug versions to test things blindly if no one can try the above adb shell things

[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Phil3759:
You have to understand that your device is abandoned by Samsung and many devs, I can do nothing about it as I do not even own it, never I did

I can fix your issues, using old sammy stock kernel, but:

- you won't be able to flash kitkat cm roms

Using cm kernel:

- you get the slow load

- you get no 64Gb fat32 support (format card to exfat for these sizes)

The slow load I can fix if I find the commits to disable sensors

fat32 for 64Gb, I will look at it again
