Problem with custom ROM

Hello Guys!

It's my first time in this site, so sorry if I will violate some rules as I don't really know any. And my native language isn't English, so please don't mind minor mistakes :) Thanks!

As for why I'm writing here- I have a problem with my Samsung Note2 GT N-7100. Today I flashed CyanogenMod 11 (Version: 11-2013-1130-Linaro-n7100) and I encountered some problems...

1. First of all I can't upload anything to my phone anymore via USB cabel (USB debbuging is on, tried different cables and re-installed drivers). It does connect to the PC, but doesn't allow me to upload anything from the phone to my PC..

2. Secondly, I have a minor (itsy-bitsy) problem with default messaging system. Everytime I send a message, it shows me that I've sent two same messages (even though the recipient gets only one message). It is a minor bug, but really buggs me off... And the other problem with the messaging system is that it splits my message in seperate parts (recipient still gets it all as one message, but i see it as a 2-3 or even 4 part message. Every one of them is viewed as a different message and splitted in every line ).

Thank you very much for even reading this and I hope someone will help me, as I am a trully noob in development of Android OS. :))

Thanks!

It seems like ur efs folder is missing thats why you are in safe mode :/ do you have a backup of your efs ??
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shieldee:
The first issue is because by default it's connecting as media device (MTP) which some times fails from my experience. Pull the status bar down and in USB options selection connect as Camera (PTP). I've managed to copy files this way although it only displays the camera folders.

After managing to connect it as Camera you can trying reverting to MTP. It will eventually work.

Are you using the default message application ? I've never encountered this issue. Maybe try using hangouts as default SMS app.

The max length of an SMS is 160 characters. If your message is longer than this it will get broken down in multiple messages.

Flashing my Note-II to get Note 3 Features

Hi everybody,

I'm posting here seeking for help with flashing my phone to get a taste of Galaxy Note 3 features on my Samsung Galaxy Note II (GT-N7100) that was running official Stock 4.3 XXUEMK4 ROM.

1. I rooted the phone and install Philz Recovery 5.15.0 for N7100 devices through ODIN 3.07 - That went smooth and as expected.. Just that I had to pull out the battery after Odin was done to get Philz Recovery installed.

2. I injected Root and BusyBox using DrKetan_MultiTool_AdvanceV5.zip. This definitely went on smooth.

3. Next, I installed a Pre-rooted, Deodexed 4.3 XXUEMK4 rom from the link given here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2533611 - That too went on smoothly and I configured my phone with my google account and checked that everything was working fine

4. Then, I flashed a MK4 MOD from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2467810 and that too seemed to have been completed properly.

I checked with the root checker app and the phone has root access. But for some reason, even after multiple restarts, there are no Note 3 features even after enabling them in the settings menu. Can somebody please please please help me achieve this?

I am currently running 4.1.2, rooted, and my device status is Modified.

How can I update OTA to 4.3?

I can't do it because my phone is modified or rooted, and even when I have factory reset my phone it still won't update.

What should I do?

4.3 revert.....

my question is a bit tricky...now, i know i cant just go back to 4.1.2 since i updated to official 4.3 rom for my international n7105, due to the knox issues......but i wonder, if i were to move to a custom 4.3 rom, with knox free kernel.......then flash official 4.1.2.....will i then be able to go to a custom 4.1.2 rom?

so in principal......

4.3 stock > 4.3 custom > 4.1.2 stock > 4.1.2 custom......is this even possible?, in theory...... i dont plan on letting anyone try it out, except for me and my crazyness :D:D:D

---------- Post added at 03:10 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:08 AM ----------

i too was custom status before going to 4.3.....after flashing via odin, everything on the new 4.3 is taken from scratch....a sort of clean slate if you will.....if you fiddle with it, then you'll see changes in that "official" status :D

Can I flash the Phoenix Rom on my GT-N7100 running Pre-rooted De-odexed XXUEMK4 (4.3)??? I flashed my phone to try and get Titoo's MK4 mod for Note 3 features, but for some reason, it did not work for me. Does the "PHOENIX ROM" have any known issues that could be a show stopper? And does that have all the Note 3 features working on it?

However in /dev/block the mmcblk0boot0 partition is not visible.

Only the mmcblk0 block is visible. I read in the s3 forum that kernels after ICS make that block visible. Any ideas?

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vanmartin:
This is likely a silly question but I've struggled to get a straight-forward answer from Google so this noob friendly thread is probably my best bet.

I flashed OmniRom in late November and used a version of the gapps from back then too (pa_gapps-full-4.4-20131126-signed.zip). I've been keeping up with the nightly OmniRom builds ever since then and also follow the OmniRom thread. I see fairly constant mention made of new versions of the gapps being available in the thread and this leads to my questions:

1. Is it necessary to keep flashing the latest gapps? or

2. Am I effectively achieving the same thing by updating my google apps via the Play Store?

Which leads to my final question:

3. What are the differences (if any) between Google Apps from the Play Store versus the apps in zip files such as pa_gapps?

Apologies in advance if this has been answered elsewhere and I missed it.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Irwenzhao:
1. No.

2. Yes.

3. No differences, in my knowledge.

P.S. flashing GApps is essentially installing system files and when it needs updating (e.g. Google Play), u can update it without any problems.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] paulyness:
So I'm guessing this is the right place for me to ask my question. A good couple of months back I rooted my N7100 using Odin and a stock ROM so that I could achieve root access and still retain the Touchwiz interface. Upon discovering that 4.3 is now available (a little late to the party) I went into my settings and tried to do an OTA software update but I got a message telling me that my device is modified. I remember seeing that SuperSu had a full unroot option so I did that. SuperSu was uninstalled but my applications requiring root (WhatsApp+) continue to work? I was under the impression that I still had root access, however, I downloaded root checker and have since seen that I DO NOT have root access according to this application. I reinstalled SuperSu from the Play Store and I now get an error message saying there is no SU binary installed. A friend suggested downloading Triangle Away to continue with my unroot but that doesn't work either due to SU not working. My goal is to run 4.3 stock ROM on my phone with full root access. What is the next step? I am currently downloading 4.3 and am planning to flash my N7100 with Odin in hopes that I'll be left with root access and 4.3 running. I am a complete noob and I'm not even sure how I successfully rooted my device in the first place! Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks :)

if you still has 4.1.2, you can root with this tool.

External/internal SD card swap question

Hi,

Long-time lurker, first-time poster. Thanks all for running and contributing to a great resource for Android users.

I've been trying and repeatedly failing to get mattiadj's script to work (to swap internal and external sd cards on my N7105).

There are now several major versions of the script for gn2, s3 and s4, and 100s of pages of posts to wade through.

A list of tested script version/rom/kernel combos would be great, but that's a long shot.

I'm on CM11 right now, which I understand is fundamentally incompatible with mattiadj's script. I would happily roll back to 4.1 or 4.3 to get the memory increase however, if I could just find a combo that worked, and that I could confirm worked.

Apologies if I am missing something obvious, but I have followed all of the directions in re init.d friendly roms, flashing etc, and just cannot get the thing to work.

Does anyone know of a stable script/rom/kernel combo that 100% works?

I'd ask the question in the appropriate thread, but as this is my first post, I can't post in dev threads yet.

Many, many thanks in advance!

hmm...

I'm still not sure what to do.

I'm running on 4.1.2 with the N7100 and I'm not so sure if I really want to update. There is an update now avaible (600 MB or so) but I dont know what it does.

I heard about a update, which activates some sort of region locks for sim-cards and you have to activate them first etc (it was on the news in autumn) and a "new" feature which splits the phone in a personal and business area and makes it harder to root/modify it.

My battery life is ok, but I like to have more volume in music and turn the background lightning of the display off (even the lowest option on brightness is even too bright sometimes).

And of course I dont want any crap of the region lock or other spy-stuff from google. (google apps and auto-upates keep popping up even though I deactivated everything).

Are there any good alternatives? There are tons of custom roms out there and I dont really know what to look for.

Sailfish OS sounds like fun as well but right now there is no port, right?
