1.

i installed omega rom and perseus kernel on my note2, and now i have automatic rotation in all 4 directions,i cant use landscape while in bed laying on my side, it turns upside down

stock i had 3 directions("home", landscape and landscape)

is it possibly to somehow disable that 4th rotation upside down its totally unnecessary

2.

is it rom or kernel thing that my automatic brightness isnt working as it should? it increase brightness under sun but it wont descrease it once i enter my house or cover sensor with my finger.... but when i turn off/turn on screen it gets on brightness it should be(lower).

on stock it was working well, decreased brightness 2-3 seconds after i covered sensor with finger.

3.

(refers to 2nd question) approximately how big difference would it be in screen on times, brightness max vs brightness lowest(without auto brightness)? would it be like big difference 5hours on max/7hours on lowest, or smaller difference?

cheers and sorry for my bad english hope everything is understandable:D

I've rooted my international N7100 with CF-Auto-Root. I wanted to install TWRP recovery today, so I downloaded GooManager from the PlayStore, downloaded the latest TWRP recovery, installed it and when I try to get into custom recovery it doesn't open TWRP! It opens something that is similar to CWM custom recovery and it says:

Android system recovery <3e>

reboot system now

apply update from ADB

apply update from external storage

wipe data/factory reset

wipe cache partition

apply update from cache

Why can't I get into TWRP? Am I doing something wrong? Thanks.

Firs I would recomend that you install PAC-MAN ROM 21.0.0 then you should set the settings.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] uphurryup:
It seems to me that you still have the stock recovery, so the install was not successful. Instead of GooManager, try to install the twrp with ODIN, or even with with mobile ODIN (you can download mobile ODIN from PlayStore). As an alternative to twrp, you can also try out philz recovery which is an excellent recovery as well.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WAHEGURU JI:
do it another way...

it also goes this way with me too,,so i think there is something wrong with goo manager,,you have to download latest version of TWRP,,zip file(flash through existing recovery) or tar file (flash using odin) from this link ( teamw.in/project/twrp2/115)

try TWRP its worth trying m also using it...

thanx...

Resolution when editing PDF in S Note

Hi there, I noticed when I import a PDF from somewhere into the S Note app to make annotations, when I export it again as a PDF to a computer, there is a significant drop in the file size and the resolution/quality of the pictures, text etc. on the PDF, making it so that it's not quite usable anymore! Is there a fix to this, i.e. can I retain the original image quality of a PDF if I want to annotate it in S Note? Thank you!!

I got some paid application from playstore and I wanna change to a custom AOSP ROM.

my question is whether I can repack my applications and games into an installer form(.apk) that will still remain in their paid version. Is there an application or procedure for this or should I use titanium backup.

If I use the Titanium Backup, wouldn't it screw up the AOSP ROM?

I heard that you have a chance that the phone will malfunction when you restore the backup on a AOSP.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brixie11:
Try flashing another ROM, that way you can exclude ROM problems ( since I don't know which one you are using ). You can also try to reinstall whatsapp.

---------- Post added at 06:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:58 PM ----------

If your phone is rooted, you can find installed APKs in /data/app folder. And yes, if you backup app in stock rom with titanium backup, you can have problems in AOKP ROM ( system apps mostly ).

Sorry if anyone else had this problem..I searched a bit and couldnt find anything. Basically...my s-note cant find any of my notes. I can find the notes under storage/sdcard0/S Note. they are all there, but for some reason S-Note wont find them. I can even hit the menu button in s-note, hit import, get to the files...then just open it. I can open and save, but it still wont pick up the file(s) in the s-note 'homescreen' where you can usually see all the notes. Maybe this happened since I dirty flashed from beanstown's jellybeans 10 to 11. Im kind of lazy to do a full reflash and set up all my homescreens again, especially as Im not sure that would even fix it.

So yeah, if anyone has any input that would be great-- I use s-note a lot and having to go to import every time for each single file, just to have it not remain there is getting pretty annoying. Also, its really slow as every time i open s-note it searches for note files.

Any ideas?

Here's a thread I made on the subject, but I accidentally posted under the Verizon specific section. :o Figured I'd post here to try and get some more people to see it, I just can't for the life of me figure out how to "point" the damn note app to the proper folder. :confused:

Hi,

Im just new to the Android world and currently would like to try to root and install custom rom. Currently i have a note 2 GT-N7100, I rooted my phone using Odin and it was successful because I already have a SuperSU and was able to install Titanium back-up. Then I installed ROM manager(from google store) and flash a CWM custom recovery (3.0x+) and it promopted successful but after rebooting I tried to open the app again and use the boot in recovery mode option but it would always go to stock recovery. I tried doing the volume up+home+power but it will still route me to stock recovery. Kindly advice what should I do.

if you are familiar with pc odin this means its easy for you... just download the cwm recovery .tar file from the original android development thread and flash it via pc odin... ( that should solve your problem) and if still issue persists uncheck the autoreboot icon from odin and do the same procedure ... then you will definitly have cwm flashed!

im crazy from all this flashing and custom kernels, i want to get back all stock unroot

at the moment i have omega rom, twrp recovery, binary 5. what should i do to get back on all stock unroot and 0 binary?

i thought to do this:

reset binary counter with triangle away

unroot with supersu(is this necessary?)

in twrp recovery-factory reset & wipe cache & wipe dalvik cache

then download stock 4.1.2 from sammobile and flash it with odin

is this procedure good and will i have 0 binary then(i read something that binary increase when you reboot with custom recovery)?

what is CSC number at firmware, i have options to download from sammobile, N7100OXFDMA1 or N7100CRODMA2. both for my country, is that relevant and what should i download

Let's get to the point :)

I have a few videos (mkv), the original resolution is 1280x720, but unfortunately, the video is cropped by a black line on the left & right size

but in media player classic, there is an option to change to widescreen

and here is the result

so.. i was wondering if there is an app for note 2 that can do it like media player classic (instead of showing the black bar)? i've tried mx player, but it won't zoom like media player classic (still the same on all of it - zoom, 100%, fit to screen, stretch) :silly:

I turned Wi-Fi on today and a software update started downloading (I'm on 4.1.1). I was surprised because I'm rooted and when I tried 2 months ago to do a software update in the "About phone" menu, it said that my device was modified and I can't do that. So why can I do it now? I don't want to update, and I'm afraid if I leave the phone with Wi-Fi on it would update by itself/ I'm rooted with CF-Auto-Root and I don't use a custom recovery.

This forum is awesome!

Some quick noob questions:

I love my Note 2, but have run into a few weird things.

1. Google Image Search. Sometimes, it works like it should. Other times, clicking the image in the search, won't do anything. Sometimes, the image opens, but then I can't open the image in the page. Had this problem on Chrome and the stock browser. Seems Apple people have this problem too doing some research. I'm thinking Google might be to blame.

2. Live Video streaming or streaming video off a website. The quality. Hmm..... I sat right next to a buddy last night with an ipad 2. We were both using the same app to stream basketball live on the same wifi. The ipad2 video quality was much much better. Then we both watched a video off the ESPN website. Same problem, only this time it was a prerecorded video. YouTube, Hulu, Netflix, seems to stream HD no problem. What's going on with live streaming? Why is the quality so low?

3. Chrome. I love Chrome, but is it just me or does it like to change font size randomly on certain websites, very noticeable on forums. And when opening a video off a website, it shows it very tiny on the middle of the screen, and i have to do a huge zoom just to get it big enough to press the play button. Lol. Not sure what's going on with this. Once again, i blame Google.

Other than these things, Note 2 is perfect for me! Glad to be aboard! After my warranty runs out, definitely going to root this bad boy.

Hi everybody,

After the S4 frenzie I just decided to buy a Note2 instead, I live in China so I can either buy a Chinese or Hong Kong version. I read all around but I can't find my answer.

Is there 2 versions of the same N7100 numbers. If I buy the HK version(unlocked) can I install most of the custom ROM here? Custom ROM's are really important to me and I need to know if I can flash any ROM (for N7100 of course) with this phone before buying it.

Thanks
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dr Sanfour:

There s the N7100 with 3G support and the N7105 with 4G

When you want to install a rom just check if has your version support and every thing will gonna be alright with you

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kremata:
Yes I've seen the N7105 but this one has less ROM available. They also have the N7102 here which I can't find any information on XDA. The N7102(32G) has a dual-Sim card and is sold by China Unicom. I would really love to have dual-sim but again no ROM for this phone.

So the N7100 from HK it is.

Hello everybody. I've got a problem with ROM's not booting.

US Cellular SCH-R950

TL;DR: Installed PARANOIDANDROID with TWRP from GooManager, sticks on boot screen and won't start up.

Rooted with the ToolKit (what a fantastic piece of software, btw. I sent those guys some money. They deserve it.), installed CWM first as I have some minor experience with it. Installed WanamLite, after that it wouldn't connect to the network, and would reboot every minute or two, like you pulled the battery.

Recovered and the rebooting issue didn't go away. Had to flash back to stock with Oden. Never reinstalled Wanam. Tried out Avatar, got it working fine, but just didn't really like it. Went back to rooted stock for awhile.

Then I was poking around and liked the look of PARANOIDANDROID, downloaded that. Went to make a backup with CWM, and it was having mounting issues. Installed TWRP through the ToolKit, and it wouldn't back up either. I searched around here and found that people were installed TWRP through GooManager, I did that and was able to back up.

Now for my actual issue, Installed Paranoid and it won't boot. It loads the boot animation, and just stops there. I let it sit there on the boot screen for about a 1/2 hour. Any ideas what could cause this? I'd really like to try paranoid out.
