Please Help

Hi, I guys I'm not a total noob but I've never encountered this problem before and it's frustrating the hell out of me. I rooted my N7100 the minute I got it but I never flashed any roms because I was fine using the stock rom and nova launcher. Well I recently decided to flash Omega Rom so I decided to use TWRP thru the Goomanger app.

I used CWM Recovery before on an old phone and had nothing but problems. I created a backup that became corrupted (I still don't know how that happened) and I wasn't aware that it was corrupted and I tried to flash recovery. It pretty much bricked my phone and I couldn't even boot to recovery anymore (even using odin didn't help). So long story short I decided this time I was going with TWRP.

Well I downloaded Goomanager, installed TWRP, and tried to boot into recovery. EXCEPT it booted into CWM recovery :confused:. I have never installed CWM on this phone, I don't have Rom Manager, and I've never even flashed a rom that would install CWM. Not only does it boot into CWM but it boots into the touch version which as far as I knew was a in app purchase (again I don't even have CWM). I've looked in every root folder and I can find TWRP in the Goomanger folder but no matter where I look I can't CWM so I don't even know how it's showing up on my phone. I really don't ant to use CWM. I'm already having problems with it, I attempted to *go back* in one of the sub menus and instead of going back to the previous menu it rebooted my phone.

Please help someone. I've tried rebooting into recovery in goomanger and CWM always shows up. I've tried getting into recovery manually and CWM still shows up. Can someone point me where to look in system files to delete the CWR .img file that shouldn't even be there in the first place. Thanks.

---------- Post added at 05:24 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:01 AM ----------

I should also add that after goomanger installed the TWRP script it didn't reboot. I have used every root explorer I can find (rom toolbox, fx, solid, root explorer) and no matter what I enter into the serach I can't find the CWR file but I can always find the TWRP file. I can always just flash TWRP using Odin but I am more intereste in erasing CWM from my phone completely. Can someone help?

MHL not workinkg on RR ROM (v.20160410)

Hi. MHL cable on my n7100 not working. Loading batery, but when i plug hdmi to projector - nothing happens. Any one have working MHL on custom rom?

Hello everyone,

I was a noob when it came to rooting/custom rom flashing etc. and I always avoided doing it for my note 2. With the help of XDA and so many helpful threads, I was able to learn it easily(thanks to the contributing members). However, I am facing a bit of a problem with the restoration with the help of TWRP.

Initially, when I restored while using the stock 4.4.2 kitkat with root, it worked like a charm. After that I flashed CM-13 ROM made by Ivan. I was also able to recover app data for the google play signed in apps via wi-fi. I tried to restore after the new installation and there was no problem with the custom recovery, however when I booted up the phone, half my apps went missing and I was getting constant pop-ups that apps like settings, supersu, update have stopped working. I tried restoring again, but now I am not geting any display but just a greyish screen and the pop-ups just like before stating that the apps have stopped working.

Am I missing something? Do I need to do something else?

Thank you.

I faced the same issue as yours. Had RR Rom latest+AGNi and was running smooth until one day it got stuck on boot loop. Tried flashing the samsung stock rom 4.4 but still stuck.

But now I got that fixed by replacing my old battery. Now it loads fine. Maybe it's an issue with your battery.

Stuck in Bootloop+Not Registered on Network!

I was running Resurrection Remix 5.6.7 latest build+Agni kernel perfectly until one fine morning my phone was stuck in boot loop. Wouldn't get past the Samsung logo screen and so I flashed the original stock rom 4.4.2 but still stuck in boot loop.

Finally i had it shown to a service center and they flashed the stock 4.1.1 and now my device boots properly.

The issues:

1. My IMEI is displayed as "00499010640000/01" & no calls can be placed because my device is "NOT REGISTERED ON NETWORK"

I have backup of my original ROM but I'm not sure how to flash my backup using TWRP.

2. I have lost root access now. Should I re-root my device first or just flash the stock rom once again?

Any guidance is much appreciated.

Since I have lost my root access what should I do now....

Is this the sequence I should follow now?

1. Root using odin

2. Install TWRP

3. Flash Stock ROM ( Which version??)

you want to flash stock firmware to restore your device? why then root?

Just flash ND4 or NL1 from your attached pic. Afterwards you may flash TWRP and root again

Gt-N7100 Stuck at Samsung splash screen

Hi. My GT-N7100 won't boot and stuck on Samsung Galaxy Note II screen. Already flashed with odin, kies firmware recovery. Nothing work. I bought this used phone yesterday. Didn't notice that the custom binary download is 1227707465 counts. What does that means? Btw, I only can enter download mode. Can't access recovery mode. Thanks in advance!
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tetakpatak:
Unfortunatelly, it sounds like a eMMC bug caused by faulty chipsets built-in by Samsung. As much as I know, all the N7100 have faulty chipsets (also mine).

Please give more information about what you attempted to flash in Odin

eventually you know which firmware was on your device when you bought it and it worked I suppose?

Really useless "news" and not helpful in any way :silly:

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Anvil20:
Sorry for my rude answer. I bought it when it was stuck on samsung splash screen state. Can't figure out which firmware it is on. I flashed 4.1.2 firmware using odin but still stuck. Restore with kies (which i believe will install the latest firmware available), still the same. I wonder why that custom binary download was too much in number? I'll post picture soon. Thanks!

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Androidwizzard:
With such high binary dl number I suppose there has already been flashed a newer firmware with knox enabled bootloader so I suggest to go for a 4.4.2 firmware for you region via Odin, good luck :highfive:

This might happen when you craped up the bootloader or the modem. Once I also had this problem. Instead of flashing the stock firmware you can try flashing a filehttps://mega.nz/#!eMsU3RiA!OXDfOhq41ebflZ27r-Bp87q6CMj5NiOdGQ5uj_kmV48 through ODIN first. This file includes the modem and the pit file. It helped me fix my device.

Srange problem USB Conection

Hello

I have a strange problem with the N7100 connection with my windows XP PC.

In recovery mode, all is ok, good connection.

In Stock ROM 4.1.2, all is ok, good connection.

In custom ROM like Eclipse, or Murat or any version 4.4.4

no connection. We need to force using a small cable 10 cm

have a connection, which is worse and unstable.

Is it a problem of modem or Kernel or ???

Hello

Thank you for answering.

Yes I enable USB Debug.

I have over a hundred flash ROM since 2013.

This is first time this has happened.

I do have some knowledge in android

and customization of the ROM.

But there is beyond me.

That's why I do not understand, I changed kernel

and by several modem combination, the problem

persists.

Who is responsible for the kernel connection or modem, or

There is something else.

Why this problem does not exist in the recovery (mine TWRP 3.02)?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ishtiak02:
If the problem doesn't exist in recovery then it's a problem of the ROM.

Strange connection USB

Hello

Ishtiak02 thank you for having responded to my questions.

I found an answer early, in fact I replaced the KERNEL AGNI Version

v4.3.9 by the 4.3.7 release and the connection very well and effortlessly.

I will test with other version to see. But the level of my knowledge does not allow me to understand why.

All I have is, is that with the v4.3.7 release I have no more problem

USB connection to the PC (Windows XP).

I shook curious to understand why, if the designer of AGNI Kernel could give our explanation. Surrement some parameters have changed between v4.3.9 and v4.3.7.

Thank you. (Google translation, forgive me if the meaning is not very precise).

Yesterday was my first time trying to flash a rom onto my tmobile note 2 (SGH-T889) with stock 4.3. I tried flashing eclipse (4.4.4) and ended up with a null IMEI.

http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-note-2/development/rom-eclipse-ac-t3144182

I forgot to backup IMEI and I no longer have a sticker with my IMEI info so I decided to restore my phone to 4.3 with cwm backup. Once my phone booted up I kept getting the "unfortunately com.google.process.gapps has stopped" error. This error keeps popping up so it makes trying to do anything a pain. I also get various errors for other apps stopping but I am assuming it is related to the gapps issue. The IMEI info seems to be intact though as I can receive calls and pull up my IMEI # and serial # from the settings.

I spent last night trying to fix the gapps error but nothing I did worked. Is it because I downgraded from 4.4.4 to 4.3? I tried installing gapps 4.3 with cwm but that didn't fix my issue. Clearing the data from various google programs also did nothing.

I also tried fixing the IMEI issue on 4.4.4 but the *#197328640# code didn't do anything and Kies didn't recognize my phone. I also tried using NV backup after I restored my phone but it would hang on "waiting on device". I am assuming this is due to the gapps error that keeps popping up. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

Edit: Well it looks like I wasn't supposed to use a N7100 rom. I am not sure why I kept thinking my phone was a n7100. Do I need to do anything special to get rid of the gapps error or can I just flash a N7105 rom over it?

Hello,

I got a Samsung Galaxy Note 2 (N7100 India) from my friend but unfortunately its ill. :( Its problem is, it hangs on welcome setup screen. I tried to factory reset in stock recovery and the device starts to work for few more steps in setup screen but again hangs. The device has stock ROM and isn't been rooted but I cannot get the firmware version or other details because I cannot get past setup screen. Also I have heard about SDS bug in 4.1.1 firmware and I guess this device has that issue. I was able to collect details using getprop on adb recovery and understood that the device has Android 4.1.2. That means the device isn't having SDS bug.

Some more details:

ro.product.model: GT-N7100

ro.product.name: t03gxx

ro.build.hidden_ver: N7100XXDLL7

ro.build.description: t03gxx-user 4.1.2 JZO54K N7100XXDLL7 release-keys

ro.build.version.release: 4.1.2

ro.chipname: smdk4x12_prime

If flashing a stock ROM should solve the issue, please guide me which suitable ROM should I download and how to flash it.

Update: After lots of research and hopes, I was able to fix the device. First tried Samsung Kies because its the safest thing to recovery the device since it gets the correct firmware but it didn't work. Kies used to hang (stopped responding) after finishing "Preparing to upgrade firmware" process. Retried few times in different systems but still didn't work. Then I thought flashing firmware through Odin was the only way so I downloaded the latest kitkat firmware (N7100XXUFNI1 ODDFNI1) and flashed it using Odin. After that, the device started to work perfectly and I gave it back to the owner. :)

Meanwhile I was able to check emmc details though ADB (device connected to pc in stock recovery mode) and the device has VTU00M chip but the FwRev is 0xf7 so I think its not bad as 0xf1. However, latest ROM has been flashed now and I hope it shouldn't face SDS issue in future.

Thanks...
