Since I can only test N7105 kennel on my T889 so I did test all support kennel here for you :

Note2core took about 30 second to get into recovery,Perseus , N.E.A.K kennel took about 50 second to boot into Recovery , backup, wipe,flash were fine but pop up Mismatch MD5 message when restore.

Only stock T889 stock kennel was take under 25 second to boot onto recovery , backup , restore fine.

Edit :Woot woot, Exfat 64 fully support in CWM now .
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Phil3759:
Great from you to test all this. The issue is non fixable without either loosing exfat support in recovery or stock kernel users having to wait too long.

Majority of my recovery users are probably on stock kernels and do prefer exfat support.

Until Samsung releases its sources for 4.1.2, the delay issue will not be fixed I fear. Kernel developers need to fix it in their kernels, but no hope without sources it seems

Actually, a thread was opened to discuss this with developers or whom has some knowledge about it:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2057364

Maybe something comes out. It could be I release, meanwhile, a version repacked with redpill kernel so people on his custom kernel can enjoy my cwm.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] AndreiLux:
Sorry but you're a bit out of bound here with accusing kernel developers and doing such claims about the source of the issue while you seem pretty ignorant about the technical aspects of the problem.

As I said and explained in the thread you linked, the problem lies with the recovery and not the boot kernel. You're the one who will have to adapt your embedded kernel that you include here.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Phil3759:
No need to be arrogant.

You seem also to ignore some parts about recovery, just like I ignore the kernel stuff. Hopefully I never pretended to be a kernel tech and always said I do not have time to recompile kernels. There are big names in the scene to do it.

I just answered you about your confusion in twrp kernel/exfat things directly in your thread, so no need to cross answers and post every where

Now, I could repack special versions for people on specific kernels, but won't do it for arrogant people. I won't also add any exfat support to cwm source as cm10 team clearly decided not to do it for legal purposes.

In the end: people on your kernel, and the likes, do not come and ask for any fix from me. Just enjoy a cwm with broken exfat, a delayed start or stick to the TWRP

Topic closed for me
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] AndreiLux:
You're the one here being arrogant because you're talking absolute nonsense and blaming people for nothing.

Your confusion, I corrected you in the thread.

You're already redistributing your recovery with a stock Samsung kernel and by doing so you're redistributing the exFat modules without proper license, by your logic you should remove them then. You're already breaching the law. CM isn't including them for exactly this cause.

Sorry but you're talking nonsense on every single aspect you've brought up till now.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Phil3759:
I brought one of the best cwm implementations till now and you did only bring useless talks to this thread, without any real contribution to fix things. You just fire around since first post. You could be a good coder, but you are another one of those arrogant devs

Go your way and just stick to broken cwm releases, enjoy twrp or repack your own cwm

Can we stop this cross posting? Second time I ask it. Stop this debate here. You opened a thread for that, stick to it
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Gillion:
Ohh Jesus ...

Cant say I didn't tell you to look into it Phil.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] AndreiLux:
I told you how to fix it in my very first reply to you in the RedPill thread, I explained it again cleanly to you in the dev thread, and since that you've been coming with some incredibly misinformed blabbering.

If you cannot handle technical criticism then I suggest you not to try to spread any of your own, because frankly, you're talking BS.

You do whatever you want with your recovery, I'm just informing the users here and stating facts. I'm out.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Gillion:
In my experience.

The problem exists in

Kash

Philz

Chenglu recoveries.

I never tried TWRP until today... it works perfectly except no usbmount option (meh)

I have the i317

When I used the recovery made by xiao,kash,phil on stock samsung rom with stock kernel they worked perfectly and booted fine.

When i changed kernels to neak it started taking almost 30 seconds to boot into xiao's, phil and kash recovery.

I know of philz recovery from the S2 and love how it worked so I was glad to see it here for the note 2

I figured it must be a note 2 quirk and I shouldn't expect it to be as fast as the S2

So i chose philz and installed it and it worked fine as long as I used samsung official 4.1.1 kernel for the t0lteatt i317

The minute I changed to 4.1.2 roms and kernels for the N7105 it started taking long to boot.

this had me worried so I tried using i317 kernels on a 4.1.2 ROM (XXDLK87) and Philz came up in the blink of an eye.

The minute I reflashed Note2core or Neak or samsung stock kernel for XXDLK7 i had problems again.

I switched back to pure 4.1.1 AT&T samsung stock and no issues with boot up.

However... I changed to TWRP and was able to use any kernel I choose no recovery boot time issues.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Phil3759:
Thank you for the detailed reports.

I will release, as planned, a version with 4.1.2 kernel that hopefully will fix it for the new stock ROMs. If it fails on n7105 / i317, I promised to repack/compile special versions for these devises. I will do it if people report that it is needed.

As you know me since the i9100/n7000 beginning, you'd probably read that I always fixed a limit when I started this project: I will not be building kernels from source. I said that many times for many reasons:

this is a time consuming task (coding + compiling wise) and I have no time to do both kernel and recovery. I am alone on this and have a real busy life. I do it on my sleep time.

I did all this with just one device in my hands, and old i9100 without even a dedicated recovery partition. Compiling kernels without a device to test is not a good project and will expose testers to issues. On recovery, I know the code enough to limit this.

I have no money to invest in new devices just for this project. For my work/life, my i9100 is enough for now

before the above debate, I could decide to associate with some one having more devices so that he focuses on kernel. I have enough contacts with nice devs here around. However, now I am completely reluctant to engage in it.

So, for now, custom kernel devs and users have to chose:

- wait for some one smarter to fix cwm

- fix it them selves

- move to twrp

- live with the delay

Sorry, but do not expect any thing more from me on this specific part.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Gillion:
can you use the kernel twrp is using ?

if i understand correctly... all you need is a kernel without the sensor hub firmware in it ?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Phil3759:
Sorry, as I said above, I will not make any new trial to fix the delay issue for custom kernels.

In any case, any one (let a kernel dev) can easily try to repack it as you suggest but there's a big chance it breaks exfat support as it is coded now in my sources. It could work though depending on how twrp added exfat support.

For the note 2, there will be no more support for custom kernels in this thread. Instead, ask the custom kernel dev in his own thread for any issue you get.

Only devs willing to add it to their kernels, can still contact me by PM, if they have time to test and debug (keep in mind I have no phone other than an old i9100, so you'll have to test, and there will be many many failures before it works, so it will take time, if I ever have that time)

Hi, im having a problem using your latest 3.81.

Every time aroma stucks at the end or when the aroma installs something, in the middle it makes restart to recovery.

I have tried to reflash 3.81 and still the same problem.

I have tried many custom roms the te problem is the same.

Please check it.

Thanks!
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Phil3759:
Dev will continue with many future plans. I will support n7100 variants as promised in pm hopefully

hi

As said above, I will not support any custom kernel or rom for the n7100.

If it works for stock based roms then it is considered done for me here. If your issue is related to a stock kernel and rom, please give details about versions used and a recovery log I can look at or how to reproduce it so others can confirm it
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] raghavafitt:
Can I flash this kernel on stock recovery (4.1.1) to get root + CWM mode
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Phil3759:
This is not a kernel

But you can flash it on stock kernel/rom in odin

You get cwm and easy rooting through attached file in page 1
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] raghavafitt:
Ok bro thanks ....ya I know this method as I used your philz kernel in note N7000 ...for getting cwm recovery and root:D:D:D

---------- Post added at 03:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:42 PM ----------

One more doubt...which should I flash I mean should I use tar.md5 Via odin or zip via stock recovery:confused::confused:
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Phil3759:
First time, you need the tar version. After that, you can update in cwm with the zip version

Unlike i9100/n7000, stock recovery is now secured and will not accept testkeys

Hi Philz,

Are you working on v3.99 for Note II as well?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Phil3759:
Sure

Just waiting for some feedback on i9300/i9305

Seems fine for now from early reports

If ok, I will repack the n7100/n7105 recoveries, hopefully tonight or by end of the week
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] slonn:
Can't seem to get the Aroma installer to work. It keeps getting aborted in recovery. I have renamed and placed the file in Clockworkmod/aromafm/aromafm.zip

It is not allowed to have a "." in the path so not sure how to set it up. Can someone help?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Phil3759:
You need to do that in the shell or root explorer since windows and many explorers do not support these file names with a dot.

I could change that for aroma in future builds

For now, only with the dot it will work

Just updated op with v3.99 info, but I noticed a new kernel base was released XXDLL7

It will take time to download it, so, sorry, will be done only Sunday or Monday as I will be busy tomorrow, until someone uploads the recovery.img extracted from the tar file

Meanwhile, if someone can upload the recover.img for n7105 (extracted from XXDLL4 you download from sammobile), I will release for n7105. Otherwise, it will wait a while until I download the file from hotfile and get time to look at it

Please report about any bugs and if Home button is now working to select. Also the new custom_rom.zip feature and the requested nandroid backup path tagged with ROM id from build.prop

Also give feedback if starting recovery is abnormally slow under stock roms and kernels. If it is the case, give exact kernel version

n7105 version has to wait until someone uploads the recovery.img (extracted from XXDLL4 you download from sammobile) or when I have time to download it

Sorry for the noob question but after hours read and tried myself, I still haven't managed to make my exfat 64Gb work. Tried to format and reformat a lot of times on my PC but it still doesn't work for me.

Always the line E: failed to mount exfat/dev/block/mmcblklp/external_sd.

I'm on latest Philz Touch's version and the card mounts normally except the recovery.

New version bootup to recovery is fast. No delay. Dll4 with note2core 2.10 AS. Vibration toggle works. Double tap works. Havent test other functions.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Tkbf:
I also can't mount 64G sd card only in recovery mode, my card is FAT32 formated. While 32G sdcard works well wirh no problem. But this issue seem not specific to Philz, I have tried many recovery, none of them allow me to mount external_sd, so I guess it's CWM side issue.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] danielthuy:
Same here, I tried almost all of recoveries for the Note II, except TWRP. I tried a fresh install with a 4.1.2 Samsung firmware but it still doesn't work. Which rom did you try with it? I tried on MIUI and Samsung Official Rom and both of them don't work.

Edit: After doing a format on the phone ( not on a PC), it works, now with the latest Philz Touch, I can access to the ext card.

Any advice on how to install this recovery . Currently on stock LJ3 kernel/Rom , rooted using Exynos abuse . I have tried chenglu , kashamalaga and this but unable to boot in recovery.

There is a bug in the new feature where nandroid backup folder is tagged by ROM name.

Actually, it will fail on Samsung ROMs and mods: ROM id from default.prop in recovery is used instead of the right one from build.prop

The bug will be fixed in next version

Meanwhile, a simple workaround is to edit your /system/build.prop and add this line:

ro.modversion=YOUR_ROM

where YOUR_ROM is the name you want to appear (do not use fancy characters as it is a file name and they will be replaced by _)

Flashed OK, I ran just the standard "Backup" option to the built in memory. The folder name was "/storage/sdcard0/clockworkmod/backup/2013-01-06.16.29.29_noname"

One thing I noticed when looking through the GUI settings is that despite having vibrate enabled it doesnt buzz when I touch the screen......I dont know if this is a known issue or if im missing something......not exactly a huge issue though :)

So far looks good, wont be testing a ROM flash until the one I use is updated.

The noname is not an issue, just a small cosmetic bug that will be fixed on next release

The name will be correctly fetched from build.prop. You will get a noname if no entries are found

Sadly, the fix I released did not fix it completely. I will have to parse the build.prop file for that. I can fix at ramdisk level but, unlike I did for i9100/n7000, I believe it would be a bad step

Just ignore it until next release
