I used the update.zip and now i cant connect to wifi and i have had 2 random reboots. How can get back to ljc
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] garwynn:
One click restore is probably easiest
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] evilgenyus:
I started having activation issues once i did the one click. I tried the no data one click. And i was also receiving chameleon has stopped messages. I updated via the very first update.zip that was posted. I just want to get back to completely stock like before. Ive already done a facotry reset and wiped the cache partition and also im not rooted.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] l3thalsab3r:
You can follow my steps in the link to go completely stock, but the only thing is you'll be on LK8 instead of LJC.

Since the chameleon fcs occur on LJC and the only way to stop them is to go to LK8.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] finalhit:
might i ask what happens when this doesn't turn out to be an official release, and they release a different build? would we have to do a revert to LJC?

also, any changes with google wallet compatibility? (i realize theres a hack for it now, but i'd like to stay stock/official)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] evilgenyus:
I was able to go back to stock ljc but the update.zip that I used messes up my wifi and im afraid to try another update.zip file.

---------- Post added at 10:50 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:27 AM ----------

Also will updating to this fix the hands free activation probfrom keep popping up. Ive never had a problem with these early releases guess I picked a bad one to try.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] digiblur:
Yep, just roll back. Been there and done that on Samsung devices with leaks before.

Sent from a little old Note 2
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] l3thalsab3r:
Yep if you update to LK8 it should stop the activation problems. Thats what did it for me.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] evilgenyus:
I followed the steps and it stopped the activation isssues but I still cant connect to any wifi open or secure . The phone sees them and then times out when obtaining ip address. Any suggestions
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] l3thalsab3r:
Hmm that's odd since its working fine for me. Anything in the wifi advance settings different from the usual?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] evilgenyus:
This is screenshot of the advanced settings. When I go back to ljc i get the activation issue but I can use wifi and when I go to lk8 no activation issue but I cant use wifi. I dont know what to do.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] l3thalsab3r:
Thats really weird, I can't think of anything besides a bad download that would cause it but its unlikely so I don't really know. Sorry for not being able to help.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] evilgenyus:
Ive tried the first update zip and then used the one in the link you provided with both with the same results. I didnt want to root and flash a rom but seems like my only option to get everything functioning properly.

Do you think it could be because I downloaded the update straight to my phone ? Ive never had a issue with this before any assistance is greatly appreciated
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] evilgenyus:
Here is a screenshot of my about device page does everyones look like this

Nicely done

Nicely done to you as well and thanks for sharing
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] kingdazy:
So just to reiterate some issues already mentioned, vaguely and inconsistently, by others.

I updated to LK8 via directions given here and in another thread. Everything just fine, until about an hour ago, now will not connect to wifi, times out and says "network disabled because of poor connection" (something like that).

So I'll guess I'll flash back, wait on another leak?

Fun fun fun! (Seriously, I love the leaks. :) )
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] evilgenyus:
going through the exact same thing im just gonna stay on ljc and deal with the activation issues and the chameleon stopping issue. Until something else comes along. I just want to get back to stock w/o these issues.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] ceabbott2:
Same issues

I have had the same problems since I originally rooted via Mskip's toolkit, (chameleon and activation error). I'm currently stock recovery, stock ROM but rooted. One question can I apply this update zip if I'm already rooted but stock ROM and Recovery? I ASSume I can because I need root to flash in recovery? Don't I??? Anywho I have flashed every conceivable USB driver to try and rid myself of the errors and chameleon issues to no avail. Pretty much have given up. Maybe if I flash this newest update it will fix my problems? Crossed fingers.

Thanks

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] kenny8504:
I think the issue is from going to lk8 then going back to ljc which I did lk8 I have bad signal and dropped calls but I think u shouldnt be rooted at all if u go to viperboy thread and follow those steps you should be golden
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] ceabbott2:
God I've missed you Kenny! Do you think the dropped calls stuff is a regional thing or is lk8 not playing nice with the innards of the phone? You mentioned Virus's thread? Is he developing for the SGN2? As always Thank you for your wisdom and help kind sir! I am grateful.

So about this root keeper apk I installed did a back up or something but I don't see the get root back button any where? I think I need to do something special exit procedure with the triangle away so first then I'll use the mskip's tool kit to unroot flash lk8 then custom recovery TWRP. Oh any idea which version of TWRP is recommended for us now? I downloaded one but haven't flashed yet I believe it was 2.3.?.? something.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] yuuutttt:
I just had a question.

Is is this LK8 update file that is causing the chameleon has stopped working error AND hands free activation thing after every reboot? If so is there a fix to it?

I have pretty much tried

going back to stock LJ1 (Still get both the errors)

going back to stock LJC (Still get both the errors)

wiping everything installing a LJC rom (Still get both errors)

Is it impossible (Error free) to go back to LJC after "this Leaked" update?

im currently using H20 rom here because jellybomb causes the errors and at LK8 rooted. is there anything I can do to go back to LJC errorfree? Thanks!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] ceabbott2:
Nothing has worked for me YET!

I have had those issues after trying to flash something using mobile odin pro. I used the mskip tool to root but I haven't tried lk8 yet? I've gone back to stock lj1 rom and then ljc nothing works to fix the errors.

If you find a fix let me know would ya? It seems some folks have luck with using different drivers and or usb ports...me I got nada. Exit to drawing board.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] kingdazy:
ah. thanks, i was about to try odin'ing back to lj1 using a stock tar w. Odin on my PC. guess that's an no go too?

could you point me to the thread where anyone had success getting rid of the permanent HFA/Chameleon errors? would love some other "options" to try, though I think I've exhausted them.

seems as though no dev wants to acknowledge the issue, (or even aswer a pm), even though there are more than a few with this issue. check in the Q&A sect, there are two threads about it, and in viperboys thread for one of his stock roms (i think), lots of discussion no answers.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] yuuutttt:
The only success I have had is either update using this update file to stay at LK8 stock or rooted and if you want u can install a custom LK8 Rom.

LJC roms causes the errors. Other than that I have no idea lol so tired of flashing to get the same results
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] ceabbott2:
Couldn't agree more

You took the words out of my mouth. I've emailed mark skippen (the creator of the toolkit) half dozen times not to place blame just figured he is obviously talented maybe he could suggest something to try NO LUCK. I've read all kinds of people with some success and others in the same boat as you and I. The weird part is there doesn't seem to be any ONE particular fix...at least none that I can see a pattern forming. A few people odin back then use a different usb port on pc, or reboot computer/phone or throw the urine from a minotaur over their left shoulder and wallah it works again?! It's all over the place, I can't get anything nailed down.

Charles
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] kingdazy:
yeah, so far the most helpful advice I've had is "return the phone to Sprint".

It dismays me that this is the best advice our XDA section has for an error that more than a few are experiencing.

I usually choose a device based (at least somewhat) on dev support and community. Second guessing my decision.

Also, for sh*ts n giggles, I tried updating to LK8 again last night. from stock LJC, which was (and still is) having the HFA/ChamFC, and it instantly killed my wifi. Which was the original indication that the LK8 leak has SERIOUS problems. So, yes, I full restored back to pure stock via Odin, and I still have the HFA/ChamFC.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] yuuutttt:
try going back to stock LJ1 than manually updating to LJC than to LK8(using this update file) that works for me. if that doesnt work while on LK8 you can than use the Galaxy Note2 ToolKit to root it and install the H20 3.1 rom here on xda. it SHOULD get rid of it. well good luck :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] 2k10MBC300SPT:
......................
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] coiledwire:
I agree; if you haven't yet try odining LJ1 and let update to LJC. Perhaps try flashing the LJ1/LJC firmware/modem before odin.

As a frame of reference, I was unrooted on stock LJC and flashed the LK8 update.zip from stock recovery. Still unrooted. I don't seem to have any ill effects. Wifi, hfa, battery life all seems the norm.

Good luck. Keep us updated, for better or worse.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] kingdazy:
great to see you here, CW! (i remember you from my Evo days, you're always the best help in all issues)

actually, I tried that too. I could fill a page with posts if I was to describe all the different combos of flash/odin/oneclicks I tried.

all to no avail.

it would seem that the factors that all of us with this issue have in common are: a) rooting w/ ToolKit ver2 b) flashing LK8 update zip c) trying to return to stock LJC/LJ1 because of a wifi problem... please chime in if you have the issue, but not one of those factors?

After everything, I just returned to stock LJC w/ Flash Counter @ 0 (no) w/ the errors still present, took it into Sprint store said, 'hey guys, this is weird, i've got a persistent error, won't go away after resetting my phone." (IE, acted dumb enough to not have rooted/flashed unofficial shtuff/etc, but smart enough to know that it's a real issue), they looked at it, asked a few obvious questions, replaced it, because obviously something was wrong in a permanent way.

I'll be avoiding the LK8 leak for now, and frankly gun-shy about the toolkit.

any input, suggestions, insight, theories, questions for more detail, you name it, I'll participate. something dangerous is going on, and it deserves to have a serious looking at, to both help those stuck with it, and preventing it for others.

food for thought: something in the leak changes something Not accessed by Odin'ing a stock TAR? i don't know how that's possible, and that is where my "technical" understanding ends. ;)

EDIT: I PMed you evilG, about returns. :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] evilgenyus:
Did you take it to a warranty repair store or just a corporate store. I might have to do this too. I can't get rid of the error either.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] coiledwire:
I'm thinking the same, but I haven't dug deeper. I wonder if its only happening thru the toolkit root.

Anyone unrooted, applied the LK8 update, had no problems with wifi/hfa/etc, but decided to odin back to stock LJ1/LJC, and everything is still functioning properly? Just curious.

Sent from my SPH-L900
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] burnnhell:
I was totally stock prior to update and decided to revert back to lj1. Had no issues on lk8 but now I have the chameleon deal and hfa every reboot. Odin had always gotten me back to prefect with any other phone. Not so much with this one this time.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] coiledwire:
Just to confirm, unrooted prior to doing the LK8 update?

Also, chameleon and hfa issues gone, and working wifi, if applied the LK8 update again?

Sent from my SPH-L900
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] burnnhell:
Yes and yes.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] gerald410:
I was able to return my phone as well, I didn't use the toolkit with my phone nor did I have have wifi issues on lk8. I think It would be best if a disclaimer was added to the LK8 update stating that if you rollback to an earlier update ex.(ljc) you will get chameleon and Handsfree activation errors.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] burnnhell:
I attempted a return. I'm at about 33 days with phone. I was offered a refurb. No thanks, ill sit on lk8 in hopes the error isn't anything more serious then some errors when rolling back to older versions.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] coiledwire:
We'll probably see a Samsung update to close the kernel vulnerability sooner than later. Then it'll be interesting to see how we fare updating while on lk8.

I was very fortunate, I got mine on 11/15 from a corporate store.

I also had insurance on it, not sure if that made a difference or not.

I received a new one at no charge.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] evilgenyus:
My corporate store sent me to the warranty repair center and they are supposed to be ordering me a new replacement @ no cost to me... We shall see.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jameslee2:

Can you please tell me how you did this step by step. Especially the status 0...... I know everytime I use triangle away it stays at status 1. I've never gotten a status 0.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] garwynn:
Hi guys!

Just an update on LK8 .zip efforts:

I've tried running my previous "fixed" update.zip efforts and get errors on stock, CWM and TWRP. Each one seems to have parameters it doesn't like.

TWRP may be the easiest to crack so I'm giving it another go here in a minute.

Problem is it doesn't like the following command in the update script:

assert(getprop("ro.secure")=="1");

I removed this and LK8 flashes properly and also appears to keep Sprint as the CSC.

Can also confirm flashing recovery by Odin did nothing, testing some theories now.

Edit/Update:

Looks like LK8 bootloader is locked and not allowing flash of custom recovery.

Flashed LJ1 unlocked bootloader from Note 2 Toolbox and back in business.

In theory should work with LJC bootloader as well.

This is good news because it eliminates one of the two dumps that I need to make .tar.md5 files.

Now just need to make a LK8 modem.bin that can be flashed by Odin and I'll have some good things on the way!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] gyrene2083:
I appreciate you help here is the status of my day at the Sprint Corporate Store. First I was there for 2 hours, they tried to reflash my phone, and where freaked out with the chameleon error. Then they got the hands free error and really freaked out. then they asked if I ever connected it to the computer. They said they have never seen it. They tried to reflash it with a computer at their store, and I was able to get profile to flash. So I thought I was progressing.

Ultimately they said that the chameleon error was based on a launcher like Nova or Apex, I almost spit my coffee out. They said I had to send the phone to Samsung. So, no dice with returning the phone to sprint for me that is. ;(
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] garwynn:
Try the LJC full restore, flash it with the PIT file and choose repartition. This should at least get you back on LJC without the errors.

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cryingmoose:
I never really paid attention to my wifes stock TF101, until recently I used and wow...it is pretty slow (I have an N7 and was surprised how much slower it was). I'm just wanted to get some feedback on what ROMs & kernals currently have the strongest preformance and stabilty.

Have JB roms become stable enough to surpass ICS ones?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuestK00429:
The Custom ROMs may be more unstable than the stock one. I am not sure, I have the same problem, but I am waiting for a Jelly Bean update for this tablet. I think they will release a JB update this christmas. Try overclocking it? You can Overclock it to 1.6 GHz.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tmcquake:
I've played around with the JB roms (my favourite being ParanoidAndroid), but I ultimately went back to stock ICS.

What I found was that flashing a custom kernel that allowed overclocking and using Nova Launcher with animation speed set to "Faster Than Light" corrected any lag or slowness that I noticed in stock ICS.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuestK00429:
Well, as you have experienced, I have some questions, because I want to overclock my TF101.

1. Is it safe? I mean, could it kill your processor or brick your tablet?

2. Do you need to have a custom ROM to overclock?

3. Does it wipe all your data?

4. If possible, do you have a link that actually works with full tutorial? I have tried overclocking and my tablet got hard bricked while changing kernel.. by the way, I read like 7 tutorials and then did what I remembered.

Thank you in advance!
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lethe6:
I'm also back to stock. Had stability/performance/usability issues with all the roms I tried, stock is the better one for mine it seems. But I have well over 400 apps installed and it's running very well and fast. I'd look into why your wife's is running so slow with stock, tons of tools out there to help you figure that out like task managers/explorers/killers/etc.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tmcquake:
I will do my best to try and answer your questions. Please keep in mind that I am not responsible for anything that happens to your device, I am just reporting my experiences and what I recommend. I do not consider myself an expert or a developer. I am just an android enthusiast who has been rooting/unlocking/flashing/modding for a few years. I hope I am able to help you out.

1. I haven't had any issues overclocking. I suppose if you push it up to the max MHz then you could have issues but I have been able to safely run my TF101 at around 1600 MHz. My TF101 is about 16 months old now and I haven't had any problems.

2. A custom ROM is not required but you have to be sure that the kernel is specifically built for Asus based ROMs. The developer usually states it in the respective thread.

3. Flashing a kernel does not wipe your data. As a general rule however I always wipe cache and dalvik cache after flashing anything. It maybe not necessary but it only takes 10 seconds to do.

4. I don't have a link to a tutorial for flashing a kernel or overclocking. There are probably tutorials out there but it's pretty basic stuff. Just flash the kernel using a custom recovery (CWM or TWRP). I personally prefer TWRP. Then i usually use SetCPU (available in the Play Store) to set the max/min MHz. I usually set max=1600 MHz and min=384 MHz.

There are a couple good custom kernels available in the development section. The one that I currently use is made by guevor (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1565519). The one I use is in Post #3 and is called "Kernel-2-ICS-V1.1-OC1700-fb_28.zip" - it is the first one under the heading "2.6.39 based".

I hope the above information is helpful!
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuestK00429:
Thank you for answering my questions. :) I can finally overclock my tablet. I'll try it later. Thank you in advance again :D

=====================

EDIT:

=====================

Thanks man.. I have successfully flashed the kernel.. I have a sister and she has some games on my TF101 and she already lost for like four times her progress. My heart was beating so hard lol. Thanks again. You saved my life xD
