+Thanks for this, will try it eventually when not busy. What made me curious was that I was able to flash the N7100 rom and it booted. Everything worked except I had no network signal and no imei and baseband. If it works like a "temporary fix", then that would be a big deal since the DN3 updates on N7105 is practically dead.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Androidwizzard:
Most parts of both devices are in fact indentic, only connectivity is not the same. Therefore no big deal to get it booted and run without real chance to get it linked as a simple phone.

Maybe there is a chance for a flashable zip which reinstates the missing software commands.

As I am no developer I can't really say but it is imaginable.

What's your bootloader version, you're on which rom.. provide some details..
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] punnary:

Hello, I would assume that your goal is to use a custom rom with S5 mod, so I would suggest you use the Ditto Note 3 Rom. It has all the goodies inside like Note 3 and S5 features.

To be able to use it, you must first root your phone. Then make a back up of your efs, and don't worry about Knox. From my experience, Knox doesn't pose any serious problems with the process. Also take a look at the note official thread of the Ditto Note 3 rom for more info regarding the wifi problem. For me, I don't have any problems as I went from France 4.4.2 firmware to this rom; however, you should make sure that the bootloader is compatible with the rom to avoid any problems. Cheers! :D

Greetings!

I would like to verify some basics because my girlfriend wouldn't let me update her phone (GT-N7100) before I can promise that it will not endanger her last 6 months of warranty...

Back when she got it, I was lucky enough to stumble upon the developing exynos vulnerability, so I could hook her up with ExynosAbuse, SuperSu and AFwall+. That is about the extent of customization her phone has, and she's happy with Samsung stock ROM and UI. Only, as we only recently discovered, this seems to have been enough to stop the phone from OTA updates. This means the phone is still on 4.1.1 and endangered by SDS (I checked with the app that was linked elsewhere on the forum, and her phone does seem to be affected).

I want to update to 4.3 or even 4.4, and keep root. Due to warranty concerns, I want to keep as close to stock as possible. Also, if possible, I would like to keep as many settings, apps and data intact.

I see two possible ways:

OTA:

I read that hiding the existing modification via xposed wanam could allow OTA to work again. Does anyone know what the current OTA version in Germany would be (pre-knox or knoxed) ? Does the OTA display what would be installed and allow for cancellation, or do I risk automatically installing a knox bootloader?

Odin:

Is it correct that nothing can trigger knox warranty void, as long as the bootloader stays <= mj5 ? Or should I refrain from installing a custom recovery to prevent knox triggering? Can I mix-n-match a 4.4 system and a pre-knox bootloader ?

regards, LordHelmchen

need advice for annoying little problems

I just got note 2 recently and when the ota was available I updated it to 4.4.2. and that's where my trouble begins. my battery level dropped much more quicker than when it is 4.3 (during screen off)and when I checked it out it seems that it was awake for the whole time. besides that I found out from the battery info that my wifi was always on at times when I have switched it off. the led light also seem to be faulty. there is no more green light when my phone is fully charged. Since I am not thinking of rooting my phone or wipe my phone, is there any other way to solve this? I know that this problems are not serious but it is irritating me.

Custom Roms

Hi !

I'm new to the world of Note 2 (had if for Christmas) and I'd like some advices on custom roms.

I'm running stock 4.1.2 rooted/deodexed rom, just learned how to properly make some backups (installed cwm for backup, made efs backup, used XDA toolkit 3.0, titanium-backuped apps, learning on ...) and I'm enjoying it, but I'd like to know if custom roms for newbies like me are a good choice, regarding performance and battery consomption against stock rom. I see Omega thread is the most visited, so it should be a good one, but honestly, it scares me a little when I see all the info on first page, and all the customization in it (would it be really better for me ? is it sure ?)

Any advice appreciated on choosing a more advanced rom :)

Thanks !!

I looked for it but i couldn't find anything.. But you can always use the method i have sent you message about.. down side is it requires root..

GT-N7100 cihazımdan Tapatalk 2 ile gönderildi

No.. I've tried many custom roms while i was using gt-i9100(s2) but there was always a down side of them.. So i stick with stock roms and i haven't tried any custom roms for SGN2.. No problem ask whenever you need help.. :)

---------- Post added at 08:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:20 PM ----------

Just use titanium backup.. i dont like nandroid backups.. and as i know when you recover nandroid backup it will recover data for 4.1.1 but you are trying to use the info for 4.1.1 on 4.1.2 so of course there will be problems..

So if you have root go playstore buy mobile odin download latest firmware for your phone and region put it in your device.. open mobile odin, give root permission, select firmware file (tar.md5), select everroot options, select wipe data and wipe cache options, flash it.. you will have root and neither counter has raised nor your status showed as modified.. voila..

There is no right custom rom for everyone.. that is the reason behind rom varieties.. you need to flash and try every one of them until you find one which satisfies you.. ;)

Greeting pros,

I have a questions here need to be clarified. I'm not totally new to android, used GS2 and now Note 2.

My question is:

- I have a Note 2 with JellyBean 4.1.1, I rooted it + installed CWM BUT still with stock ROM and stock kernel, now, should I or am I able to update to 4.1.2 through Kies without problems? or will the root disappear? Or I have to totally flash it manually using Odin?

-Actually I had the same situation earlier with my S2 rooted stock ROM and kernel, I updated my S2 via Kies and had no problem at all, everything seem to work fine, now I wonder if it will be the same with my Note 2...

To the pros out there, your answers/solutions are very much appreciated!

Thanks a lot!

Buy titanium back up pro. It allows you to backup data and apps and then you can also create a flashable zip of that backup so you can restore very easily. The app itself is free but with the pro license you get many more functions which are worth the cost

I;ll second that....

I have a Viewsonic Gtablet and after a year and a half of changing roms once or twice a week i finally bought the Titanium Pro yesterday as i can see myself trying many of the different roms being provided for us for this Note 2.

Now i'm kicking myself in the butt for not doing it much sooner, i used to just live with re-installing my favourite apps but Titanium sure makes restoring my apps way easier and much faster than downloading the apps from market (play store whatever).

You can get it from Play Store but i got mine from his web site and Joel was right on it and emailed me all the stuff i needed really fast and then i figured i wanted a small change to my liscense and again, Joel was right on it and made my change for me really fast.

For the product and service for only $6 never mind all the time you'll be saving yourself, it's well worth it.

If you haven't flash stock rom for another country you should be ok.. But your root will disappear of course.. If you wish to keep root while you should flash it via Mobile Odin.. It has been explained by me several times in this thread.. Just read a little previous pages.. If you get any else problems just ask here.. We try to help you as well as we can.. :cool:

After your message several posts has told about TitaniumBackup.. Yes it is a great app and very very useful.. And even if you are not using it, just flash rom play around settings, contacts, etc.. look for what you are searching in a rom.. If it is there just install everything it, if it's not there try a new rom.. Wiping doesn't harm anything.. We are not talking about hard-drives here.. These devices has flash memory which uses magnetic field manipulation to hold data.. It's not the same with hard-drive's actual writing technology.. So there is no format/wipe lifespan.. ;)

hi everyone! i am new in n7100. come from hd2, optimus 2x, nexus 7. i never had a samsung phone.

i saw on the forum that there are several way to root this phone. using toolkit 3.0 is a good choice?

then i realize that samsung phones when rooted show a triangle booting. now i have to remove it? how? the toolkit does it?

another point is the exynos bug. is it solved? how can i solve it? if i update my phone (it arrives monday i think) the problem will be solved?

before flashing except updating phone, root, cmw, anything to do?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tommytky:
Thanks a lot for the reply bro, really appreciate it :)

I tried it yesterday through Kies but Kies only allow me to update to 4.1.2 after a complete wipe, so that means I can update but all the user datas will be completely wipe out...

So, since I have no choice but to lose all my datas to update to 4.1.2, I backup all my apps with TitaniumB, and here comes another question:

(Q) Titanium Backup and Nandroid backup using CWM, which one is better OR should I do both? and what are their differences?

(What I understand is that TB make backup of each individual apps/datas and Nandroid backup make md5 image of your ROM, right?)

i went ahead and bought the sdxc micro card after that i still searched the net to see if i could have found a better deal i realize all the 64gb micro cards where sdxc, then i read sdhc normally only goes up to 32 gb. Hence, my question was a NOOB question, one that shouldn't even have been asked except us NOOB's have spent a lot of money on our Note and we a little hesitant and scared we might mess up our phones. I been sitting here for a few days just itching to flash the rom i've picked out slowly getting the nerve to do it. I was the same way with my Gtablet until i finally flashed it then it was like "aaaahh why was i so scared to do it, It's really not that hard" just read and read then follow the steps the Devs put out for the particular rom you want to flash.

Some forums would trash us for asking what others might think silly questions but you guys realize that us NOOB's are hesitant and just need a simple question that we already have read the answer to it a few times but we just kinda need it answered directly at us as we get ready to take that 1st plunge.

I could not get the toolkit to work, maybe because I'm on Win8, so I just used ODIN to flash a recovery and a root package. And I don't see a triangle while booting, but in download mode, there is a flash counter, so a service center or something can see if you have fiddled with your device. The flash counter can be reset using Chainfire's app '' triangle away''

Tommytky

Since I'm a NOOB, maybe I shud't be answering your question, but you are correct. Titanium is for the apps and Nandroid backup is for the rom so you can go back to where you where should you decide or if something goes wrong with your flashing to new rom.

But you gotta understand, CWM is used for your rom and the Titanium is a program that you generally install after the flashing of rom to restore any missing apps or app progress that you want that aren't in the new rom. If you use the free version of Titanium then you use Titanium only as a program when phone is booted to restore or create backups. Only with the paid version can you create zip's that you could use in CWM to restore the apps.

So CWM and Titanium, 2 different things to do 2 different things, not one is better than the other.

Hello Guys,

I want to flash a new bootloader (if possible, KNOX free) to get wifi or do whatever it takes just to get my wifi back (maybe I don't need to flash a new bootloader?). I tried flashing MJ5 but it keeps failing in ODIN. Is this because the current BL is newer as MJ5 (Current BL is MA5)?

Or do you know how I can get my wifi back? If necessary and there's no way arround, I am willing to trigger my knox.

I have Galaxy Note II N7105 which is locked to Swedish mobile operator Three. I bought unlock code from Three and after 1 week of waiting I got the code by mail, but their code seems to be not working. Three told me that they could send it to Samsung Service center but it would take 7 working days, being short on time I went to them myself and left my phone there for one day. Next day they told that were unable to unlock the phone due to fact it has been rooted before, and knox void warranty turned to 0x1. The only option they offered me was a change of motherboard, which costs about 360 USD ( cheaper to buy new phone). So I want to ask if there is any possibility to unlock this phone for example via SRS remote server or I can just take it to some shop where they could do it for a small fee?
