Hello I'm new to the forums, At exactly 9am EST Today I went to AT&T Used one of my upgrades purchased note2. Went to brothers house, he used phone, DROPPED it 6" off the ground n shattered it. Two hrs old :( ...

Went back to att and had to use my other upgrade in order to get it at $299.....Pics to follow...just bad luck I guess
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] michaelatrix:
That sucks! Sorry man! Did you have to pay another 300

Doesn't insurance cover that?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] bonez537:
Exactly.. add insurance to the line.. (you should have 30 days) then put in a claim.. should only be 150..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Granna:
I know this doesn't really help, but wanted to just say....so sorry, I know that had to be difficult! Hope your days ahead with your note gets better!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] inspectagadget:
I always put insurance on my phones and devices for just that reason.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Mrglass86:
insurance replacement is 200 but un taxed, free shipping and no upgrade fee
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Dr. Evo:
Sorry, OP. That sucks balls and I feel for you. Just got home from Best Buy with a brand new Note II, myself, after I complained about the battery life on my original Note II. I had no idea the rep would offer me a brand new phone on the spot, no questions asked, no money down. That's about the only thing BB is good for... their insurance. If you had BB insurance, they would have either given you a brand new phone on the spot with a zero deductible or they would have tried to repair your phone and eventually given you a new phone, anyway. Make sure not to let anyone touch your baby! This is an $800 computer!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] UCLAKoolman:
Really sucks OP. Stories like yours make me paranoid. I bought a Squaretrade warranty, two years, for $90 and $100 replacement deductible. Hope I never need to use it though.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] JoJo2211:
i'll buy it from you. let me know.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] andrawer:
bummer.:eek:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] sallvation:
Yes had to pay another $317.99 (My brother paid it..Cash..lol)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] UCSB:
Check the credit card you used for the original phone purchase ... many offer 90 day protection for loss or damage. I always use my Visa Signature card for this reason on phone purchases. If your card does not cover it, repair cost would have been much cheaper than a second phone (plus two years of data).

Hi. Did you use Mobile Odin's OTA/Update Zip option?

Thanks!
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] qui:
Unzip then use the open file option.
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] mitchelln:
Thanks for the info. I'll give it a go!
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] NEDSTER1972:
Works fine. All my data was kept after flash. Easy to flash using odin.

Plus my data speed on t-mobile went from a maximum of 3mb to 13mb after flash.

Cheers
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] mitchelln:
Hi. Sorry, I'm a a bit of a noob to the Samsung tools (having just come from the HTC world of hacking!). Can you tell Odin/Mobile Odin not to flash the modem part? I don't want to flash a SA modem onto my UK EE handset.

Thanks.
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] Higgins12:
If it is a one Part Firmware like this one, no you can't. AFAIK you would need a 3 Part Firmware which consists of a Code, modem and csc part. There isn't a 3 part Firmware available right now.

What you could do is flash you current modem (your Providers Modem) seperately after flashing the Firmware.
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] mitchelln:
Hi. Thanks for your help.

I've extracted the tar from the zip and then unpacked the tar. I assume I can just flash the system and boot images via Mobile Odin and leave the others? Sorry to be asking so many questions. I just don't want to brick my handset by rushing head long into something new to me.

Thanks
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] NEDSTER1972:
Yes mate all you do is unzip the tar then connect phone & flash through pda as normal.

Simples.
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] mitchelln:
Just done it. Flashed system and boot images only with Mobile Odin. All went fine. I now have 4.1.2 and kept have my EE modem :)

The editable multi-window menu makes it worth the upgrade alone.

Thanks for your help with this :)
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] meatmeat:
I pretend to use mobile odin, which is the best way to root for mobile odin installation and without increase the counter?

Thanks
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] springer.music:
Yes, you can use Mobile Odin Pro to install and root without increasing the counter.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=35057300#post35057300

Download the file from the OP and unzip it to your internal or extenal SD.

Launch Mobile Odin Pro, tap "Open file" and select the unzipped .tar.md5 file.

Now tick "Enable EverRoot", "Inject Superuser (SuperSU)", and "Inject Mobile Odin".

If you want a completely clean installation, also tick "Wipe data and cache" and "Wipe Dalvik Cache" (Warning: this erases all installed apps and settings).

Then tap on "Flash firmware" to start the installation process.
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] meatmeat:
Thanks, but before the mobile odin can be used the phone must be rooted, the question is: which is the best method for root the phone by the first time, without increase the counter and apear the yellow triangle? . I think that one option is flashing CF-root (with PC odin) and after use triangle away.

Thanks one more time.
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] cooltide:
This is what I did. Flashed the phone /w PC Odin and used triangle away afterwards. Worked flawlessly.

[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] mitchelln:
If using Mobile Odin, it is a good idea to deselect the modem and hidden partitions as they are for a South African telco.
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] springer.music:
If you go to System settings > About device > Status, does "Device status" say "Normal" or "Modified"?

I also rooted it with PC odin using this tutorial (stock recovery method) initially:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=31801060&postcount=2

Unfortunately, Triangle Away was not able to reset the counter successfully (it was still showing "1"), and "Device status: Modified".

Anyway, as I was already rooted I then went the Mobile Odin Pro way selecting all the wipes. This brought back the counter to zero and "Device status: Normal" and gave me root access at the same time.
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] sawdoctor:
Hi I'm in the same boat and want to keep my ee modem and root. I've unzipped the file so do I just place the boot image and system image on my sd card and then flash them with mobile odin ? I'm not sure what affect having a SA modem on a British network would have on the phone if any
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] olisun39:
I initially installed this full image incl the modem on my EE N7105 (am using with Three UK) and the speeds were all over the place.

So I then reflashed the original image and then this image minus the modem and I can say that the speeds have improved drastically...

Strangely I am also getting a signal albiet 1bar in in some places where I had zero signal before.

Don't know what this build contains to improve on the signal strength...

Also battery life has not depleted and seems to be better than the previous build.
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] Higgins12:
I'm somehow getting horrible Battery Life when i flash the included (SA) Modem. It's about 4-6% per Hour while before i had 2-3% guess i have to flash again the Provider Firmware and then the new one excluding the Modem. I'm on Vodafone Germany
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] :
So did you flash every file except the modem? And which flashing method did you use. Thanks
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] olisun39:
If you are asking me, then I flashed using MobileOdin Pro everything except the modem
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] mitchelln:
I just flashed the system, boot and cache images. I used Mobile Odin Pro to retain root via Everoot option. You need initial root access to run Mobile Odin. All worked fine. There were a few heart stopping moments when nothing seems to be going on during the process. Especially when I got a little Android bot and a progress bar and then a totally blank screen for a few minutes at one point. Patience is the watch word ;)

Anyway, result is my EE UK handset is running 4.1.2 fine with the original EE modem.

Not sure what the Hidden and Param images are for, but it seems they not needed :) I suspected they held SA telco specific code and settings, which is why I decided not to flash them.
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] Higgins12:
It's for Provider Specific (Bloatware) Software. No need for it
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] Higgins12:
Btw can't i just flash my old modem with mobile odin? Never tried that so i don't know if it will work
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] mitchelln:
Yes, you can extract the modem image from the original firmware file and flash that by itself with Mobile Odin after flashing the new ROM. But why bother when you can simply de-select it when you are flashing the new ROM?

Thanks for the info on the hidden partition image :)
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] Higgins12:
I did flash it already yesterday WITH the new modem :) so i won't do the whole procedure again
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] mitchelln:
Aha! In that case just extract the modem from the stock file for your variant and flash :)
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] :
Right sorry for the noob questions. I've extracted the boot cache system and recovery images to my sd card I've already got mobile odin pro and rooted. I get the system goes in system cache goes in cache etc but which option do I put the boot image in on mobile odin is it kernel ? Or am I doing something wrong
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] mitchelln:
Hi. You just use the Open file to open each image. Mobile Odin is clever enough to work out which partition. So when you select the boot.img, you should then see an entry in the Kernel section. Then open the system.img file and you'll see the System partition populated. Once you have loaded boot, system and cache you can then flash.

The other way is to simply open the .tar.md5 file and then de-selecting the partitions you don't wish to flash.
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] springer.music:
This is strange. I've installed the full SA rom (including modem), and battery life is superb. The phone has been on for the last 8h and 30min and I still have 88% battery (normal usage).
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] mitchelln:
Yes, I'm seeing improved battery life as well. Something must have been tweaked :)

Not that it was bad before ;)
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] Higgins12:
For me the strange thing with the new modem is the massive amount of wakelocks what "Phone" is causing

Gesendet von meinem GT-N7105 mit Tapatalk 2
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] mitchelln:
Are you using the South African Vodafone modem from the ROM in Germany? Perhaps that is the problem?
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] springer.music:
Could it be that something didn't go exactly well when you installed this rom with PC Odin? Which version (country/provider) of the firmware did you have prior to the upgrade?

As I mentioned in another post, I completely wiped out the previous installation (provider EE / country UK) with Mobile Odin Pro, therefore I now have a pretty clean system.
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] Higgins12:
Yea i think so that's why i wanna switch it. But still in Office and will do it when at home.

---------- Post added at 05:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:42 PM ----------

I did wipe everything too. Installed with Mobile Odin Pro as well. Previous ROM was the Official Vodafone Germany ROM.
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] springer.music:
Higgins12, as it's the Phone app which seems to be misbehaving, would it make sense to go to the Application Manager > All > Phone, force stop the Phone app and tap on "Clear data"?

I'm not sure whether this helps but it's worth trying...
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] Higgins12:
Good Point, i will give it a shot
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] :
Thanks very much just flashed with mobile odin and everything seems fine. I only wiped davlik and left all my data so will have to see if there are any issues
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] :
I've noticed a few apps don't work or aren't present since flashing like allshare cast & allshare service best face google street view and nfc tags. Anyone else noticed this ?
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] springer.music:
They are working fine here. As I mentioned to Higgins12, you could try to clear the data of those apps in System settings > Application manager > All
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] :
Think im going to do a full wipe and install. I noticed a lot of files left behind that might be causing it
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] springer.music:
Default sales code seems to be XSD for the UAE, not SA

I've just noticed another thing with this firmware.

When I opened the file /system/csc/customer.xml with a text viewer, I could see that the default CSC Sales Code is XSD, which is for the network provider "du" in the United Arab Emirates, and not for South Africa as stated in other posts and on samfirmware.com/samsung-updates.com.

The following three folders are present in /system/csc

XFV - South Africa (Vodacom)

XSD - UAE (du)

XST - UAE (Etisalat)

As I said, the default one seems to be XSD for the UAE (at least on my device).

Can anyone else confirm, please?

Ta
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] mitchelln:
I still have all those except the nfs tags, which I didn't have before either. You definitely only flashed the boot, cache and system images?

The "proper" way to do this of course is to perform a full wipe and use something like Titanium backup to restore your apps. I thought I'd try the quick way first though ;)
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] :
Hi I'd backed up my apps with rom toolbox. Ive flashed my original rom back and restored all my apps. Still not got all share working properly which I do use for streaming music to the ps3 but I can download a 3rd party app for that. Will do a full wipe install and then back up my apps later
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] mitchelln:
I highly recommend Skifta for streaming. It just works :)

HI all, just downloaded the rom and flashed Kernel, Recovery and System successfully via mobileOdin.

Just noticed S-Note always force closes. I have tried to clear everything including resetting the device and also fresh install again... but S-Note still force close. Also pressing vol-UP + Home button + Power button to go to recovery mode does not work...

Anyone also experiencing this?

After flashing:

Build no. JZO54K.N7105XXDLK7

Android version 4.1.2

I'm on Baseband version N7105BVALIG (old one before flashing as I did not flash modem)

Any help will be appreciated. Thank you.
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] :
I flashed everything except the modem with mobile odin the same as you. I have the same baseband and build number as you. Just tried recovery and snote both fine
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] owl74:
Thanks. I have redownloaded everything and reflashed except modem but still the same so out of desperation I flashed the whole md5 and now everything seems to be working. Do you have a backup of your current modem so I can flash it back? Cheers
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] owl74:
Nevermind my comment above... it looks like the modem is alright... but is this placebo effect? My data speed on HSDPA+ has gone up. I only used to have a max of 6mbps, but after flash I sometimes get 10mbps :laugh:... still early days though so still testing. I have downloaded the EVR version of the rom just in case... thanks to Chainfire and his mobile ODIN Pro... it makes flashing and rooting a lot lot easier...
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] :
If you need it just use mobile odin with the evr rom and only select the modem. That should work. A few people have complained about wake locks and battery drain with the included modem as well as the increased speeds
