No service after fashing new ROM!

Hello! I have the SGH-i317 model of the phone. It was rooted properly and originally had the saurom rom on it and worked great! I flashed the Jedi-X rom to it and now i have no signal. I had saved a backup of the Saurom rom but even after restoring it i still had no service. My carrier is AT&T. Do you have any suggestions to fix this? I tried looking for a stock recovery but i can't find one for my phone. At this point I'd almost be happy to unroot the phone. Thanks for your help!

Where can I download mod/rom/kernel and what I need to install in my cell phone.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chayangkul99:
Do you have an efs backup, if yes try and restore it, try and flash on other rom and kernel see if it makes any difference. I dont have much knowledge about your variant so try and ask your rom dev, ill try and search for stock rom for your variant :(

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chayangkul99:
Firstly, you will need to have a working recovery (not stock), try cwm (in the original development section, flash it via odin). The easiest way is to install redpill kernel, to do this, download redpill kernel for your rom (in this case if you are on stock do not download aosp). After that, boot into cwm recovery and install the zip file! Done! To enable the external2internal just activate it in the program stweaks, choose between fat32 and exfat, done!!!! :) for. To flash cwm, do it the same way like you root your phone, (to boot into recovery hold power+vol up+home)

Thanks, but i saw the rest of your reply... you seems recommending red pill, lolz, anyway, i will go for redpill first, and the rom.... still need some advice from you

do you mean this kernel already have the feature? i thought i need to mod it for the external2internal.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chayangkul99:
Redpill is a great kernel that i've been using for a while, you might not like it and want to use uneak or perseus. The kernel has the fuction that allow you to use the external2internal, this can be activate in the program stweaks. Btw once you install the rom you mighy need to reflash the kernel again, as most of the rom will flash stock or other kernel.

whats next

I have a Note II SGH-I317 with AT&T and i rooted it using ToolKit via instructions from this tutorial http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=je2yqQDtal4

i used this method because like the video states, it was easy

due to the updated version of the toolkit there was one extra step not found on the video:

after selecting 2 from the main menu (Root/Unroot Options) and then 3 (ALLINONE) time = 5:10 on video. this process is different.

in the video it asks are you ready and then the ball starts to roll

in the current version it asks which recovery do you want to flash: Clockworkmod Recovery 6.0.1.9 or TWRP Touch Recovery 2.3.2.3

(since i only ever heard of clockwork. i went ahead and installed it)

Q1: does it matter which one i pick here? or is it just aesthetics?

Q2: what does Insecure Boot Image mean?

the next step asks which method to access root: Superuser or SuperSU

(i heard of both and never heard anything better or worse on either one, but since Superuser has been around longer, i went with Superuser.

Q3: what are the differences here? not a big deal? totally a big deal? (be as descriptive or as brief as you want)

​

the rest of the process is pretty much identical to the video.

So… i have rooted my phone…

Q4: whats next? triangle? bloatware? ads? mods? Roms? themes? Anything that you might recommend?​

not really needing to triangle, not sure why I would personally want to.

Q5: why would someone want to triangle? could someone give me an example?

Q6: do I still look for apps In Google Play? or is there a different place that i look for them now?​

looking into getting rid of bloatware and ads. sounds like it would free up some disc space and cut down on overhead... also currently looking into using roms, mods and themes. I hear jedi and omega are good.

Do I even sound like im making sense? lol...
​

Feel free to let me have it. Be nice, but please let me know what the deal is. I plan on sticking around here for years to come, so I want to learn as fast as I can so that i can give back.

Thanks a bunch!! Im glad glad happy and glad to have a place for noobs here. tech forums can be intimidating especially for noobers. Ttyl ~Atom
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chayangkul99:
Hi, :)

Lots of ques there,

Ans to ques 1: both of them are pretty much the same, however there are some functions that are different, if you dont know much about android i would recommend you to stick with cwm, it is a very good recovery that is very easy to use and understand.

Q2: an insecure boot is when root acess is enable by default

Q3: they are pretty much the same, so not a big deal

Q4: next is to do a triangle away, this will reset a binary counter to 0, this is not necessary but it is recommended, because in semi-brick state you will still be able to get into download mode and if you want to go into warranty, they will need to check whether your device is modified or not, and by using triangle away it will help you to get the warranty back. The rest are up to you, you might want to stay on stock or maybe go and and flash a custom rom, its entirely up to you, if you would like more customization and better performance then install a custom rom. :) Bloatsware are just progrsms that is running all the time in the background (it may or may not be needed). (I think i have answered ques 5 in there too)

Q6: there are lots of third party appstore out there, just go and search for it in google :)

Dont forget to hit the thanks button if i have helped u!! :)

tirangle away

will i be able to use the toolkit to do the triangle away?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chayangkul99:
Triangle away is just a program, (.apk) just download it from the playstore(paid) or chainfire thread (free, search in google triangle away) and once you open the program it may ask you to download some extra things just let it download, then once you are in the program, just click reset counter, it may need to reboot into special mode, just let it do the job. If you are running custom recovery or roms, everytime you boot it will increase the counter to 1, so you will have to resest it at every boot or when you want to go in for warranty :)

I don't think flashing firmware like that is going to do you any good..

So when I 1st flashed my Note 2 using Oden I had made a full backup, including efs.

Not in my experience. The device usually bootloops if installing through ODIN, or if installing via the recovery, it will just refuse. If it did install and run, you most likely won't get a signal as the OS is trying to search for frequencies that the devices' radio isn't capable of using.

Sup guys !

SO it is month after I got my N2 (and I love it)

Couple of question.

1) Left top corner is a bit raised from the level of silver bezel (the glass is raised). I think it is like that since the day I bought it. The glass can be pushed in but its not staying there. It is realy minimal movement and I have to press the corner really firmly and look closely to see that it can be pushed in and leveled. Any other N2 of Yours have this ? One N2 I checked in store was the same.

Top pic - the described corner

bottom pic - the right top corner for comparison

2) I am using samsung protective cover +. The back of it is a terrible scratches and fingerprint magnet. It is a good case but I feel like getting other one. UAG ? Or maybe flip case ? Does flip samsung case offers protection for camera lens ? is it hyperglazed ?

Actually I am using it without any additional case at al for couple of days and I really love vanilla feel of it. It slides in the pocket so nicely. I am just afraid camera lens might get scratched because of its location.
