Wanamlite is a good stock based rom if you want to try it

hello im have some general questions and problems that i can find furom on but not with the explinations for things im confused about.

im having problems with my rooted samsung note 2 n7100

i have managed to install backtrack and run it live thru a vnc server but since i rooted the device it lags allot.loading backtrack took a while because of problems with the vnc pasword incase you needed to know the preset pasword is - toortoor- it took me a while to find.

but since then i have tried to load and instal aircrack and drives for it but i cant get it to work at all and was wondering if someone can help point me i the write direction or can think of some stuff i may have missed.

i have attached some commands i tried and an error i received because was wondering what it means thanks allot sam

Thnx for the reply mate. Yes its def a N7100 model. So I will go ahead and give my first flashing a try :)

Btw..would anyone of you here know anything about an SD card issue on the note 2. I had TWO different brands of SD cards go corrupt on my note 2 in a span 2 months. Plus its also freezing sometimes randomly and rebooting itself when in sleep mode...and hence i though perhaps the issue may be solved with flashing the latest stock rom!!!

Any ideas/suggestions...
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xcly:
Dunno about the random reboot issue.. quite a lot of people seem to be suffering from it. Mine just freezes when I'm trying to multitasking and I'm still trying to figure out what's going on.

Never had any trouble with SanDisk sdcards on any android device I owned, including the note 2.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] a-kid:
Unfortunately mine was a Sandisk 32 gb class 4. And then I replaced it with a Kingston 32 gb class 4 which too went corrupt after less than 3 weeks of use. I had bought both from original retailer, not some cheaply from eBay. Though I get replacements as still under warranty but its getting aa bit frustrating now. Anyways I hope the latest rom flash will solve the issue...fingers crossed.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xcly:
You know, if you keep getting corrupt sdcards even with different firmwares, just get Samsung to replace it. I don't see point in you wasting your time coz you got a faulty device

alt. modem for GT N7100

i am trying to get a clear picture about flashing the phone modem. i have the Note 2 GT N7100, rooted w/o custom recovery. my data speed is not more then 200 kbps at most. i read that replacing the modem may help improving speed. i am not clear to how to perform it, what is safe, allowed, and available. any information will be greatly appreciated. thank much!
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xcly:
You can flash modems via odin, just the same way as you'd flash a firmware. As long as you're flashing the modem for the right model, n7100, you're gonna be fine. There is a thread with all the modems listed so look for your country specific one or even better, one for your carrier.

As for improving signal and speed, it's a bit of trial and error as flashing a modem for your carrier doesn't necessarily mean it's the best out there.

Firmware update from different country

Hi, I am pretty new, so pleas excuse my naive question: is it possible to update the firmware from my N7100 based on an old O2 firmware (UK) with a local country firmware eg. from germany/austria? Or do I have to use another UK based firmware? My phone (although is new for me) shows that it is modified already (I guess because it is not provider locked anymore). Thanks for any help in advance!

If you don't mind losing S pen functionalities, you could try Paranoid Android or Xylon. They seem to have good reception with some of the people I know who use them. As for stock-based, I'm using N7105 so don't know much about your model. I would anyway say try a whole load of them for a few hours each at least and then narrow down your selection. They all have their little tweaks that you might like (or not) so it's better to try them out yourself

I tried about 10 different roms on my previously owned S3 before I settled on a rom :)

Samsung note 2 on verizon network bricked

I have rooted my Verizon Note 2 and unlocked the boot loader and installed mean-bean - it worked awesome so I wanted to try another ROM. The ROM failed so I went back to mean-bean by selecting the backup I made on my sd card before I tried another ROM. My phone is now stuck on the "Samsung Note 2" boot up screen. I did the "power + volume down + Power" and gives me a warning asking me to press the volume up key to download a custom ROM or the volume down key to cancel. When I press the volume down button I get stuck at the Samsung note 2 screen, if I press volume up I get stuck at the downloading screen. When I connect the phone to my computer I can hear a ding in windows 7 64bit but am unable to see the device. I have read the forums and have downloaded a stock rom suggested by several of them and oden 3.07. Oden does not show a com port as the posts suggest. My computer does not see the device. The forums that deal with not seeing your device says to download and install the latest usb drivers. I have re-downloaded the latest Samsung usb drivers and rebooted my computer. The computer still just makes a noise when i plug my phone in but does not see it in oden or in the computer. I have read so many forums and other peeps seem to still see their phone in oden. can anyone help a noob plz?

Thanks in advance. :o

Hi guys, my partner purchased the N7105T not what i usually use every day but hey, the girls like em big, LOL. She purchased this unit from eBay, first thing i noticed that under 'settings/system' you see 'developer options' which on the S3 or S4 smartphones you don't, is this standard? another thing i noticed is that this variant has the XSA unbranded stock ROM, i actually thought that the 'T' variant was supposed to be branded??? Lastly i noticed that when she runs a live wallpaper like the standard 'deep sea' or 'bubbles' that there seems to be some sort of rendering issue, it seems that the bubbles on both wallpapers seems to stutter slightly, they don't flow smoothly. Has anyone else experienced this, should i be concerned or is this some known glitch with the current OS on these devices?? One last thing, id like to root the device for her so that she is able to run apps like online nandroid etc, any recommended root methods that have been tested and working, prefer cwm recovery but happy to use TWRP

You only asked in the morning lol

As for developer options, s3 and note 2 variants do show them in the settings. It's only s4 that doesn't.

If it had unbranded and you suspect it should be branded, it's been rooted previously by the seller. They probably flashed a random stock firmware and sold it hoping you won't notice.

The N7105 root method should work. There is a Cwm recovery thread in n7105 Dev forum so check that out. Flash it using odin and then flash a superuser zip file in recovery. And you're done.

did you flashed them via recovery made? Try going to downloadmode again.( as you did before)and use Odin to flash a complete stock Rom(The one which came with your phone is better,if you can find it). This should revive your phone, but it reverts everything to initial state.your phone would become un rooted and may bootloader looked(not sure about bootloder)

Are you, by any chance, running on Go Launcher. If that is the case, there is a setting in Go Power Master that shuts of data automatically when the screen shuts off. You can manually change.

You can also try going to Settings > Data usage > Menu soft key > Select Auto sync data > Deselect restrict background data and the rest. Furthermore, check the settings of your Radio app to see if there is any options concerning mobile data usage.

choosing note 2 rom

Hi everybody

i am using the touchwiz rom and i'm tired of the look so i'm looking for a rom wich has a new look and different look from now

and also i want the s pen features working and multitasking

i know that is too much but if anyone knows any rom like that i appreciate that .
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xcly:
If you're alright with a half-way solution, get CleanRom and flash the AOSP theme on top. If you want the full AOSP look, don't install Touchwiz when flashing the rom. Instead go for Nova or the other launchers. Mind you though, Page buddy and some functions like widgets won't work unless you use Touchwiz launcher.

Other things like S note and multiwindow features still work.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tsybriki:
For me the easiest way to try a new look is to just install Apex launcher on top of a Touchwiz based rom. This didn't require full reflash, but provided custom desktop UI. Still statusbar and lockscreen kept Touchwiz style.

On a separate question - do AOSP/AOKP roms fot Note2 use MTP, or do the allow to mount phone internal storage as USB storage? I'm having issues with finding a reasonably fast and convenient method of tranfering files to my Note2: Direct USB connection is MTP and not as stable as I would want it + I can't write files when I open folder in windows explorer (driver issues?); I was unable to find my way around Kies - fails to read IDv3 data from device, Kies Air via browser - this is the best I could find, ES File Manager over wi-fi - incredibly slow, Kies over WIFi - not stable + I have to use Kies. How do other people solve this?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xcly:
Yeah that would be the half of my half-way solution :) CleanRom AOSP theme changes all the settings and notification panel (clear button now placed at top right) and messaging, dialer etc. I haven't stuck around with an AOSP rom because I want to keep the S pen functionalities working so won't be able to answer that question but I seem to have stable enough connection using MTP tbh. I don't really move files around that much so it's not an issue for me to start with but still manageable.

I haven't installed any drivers on my notebook (Win8 x64). Just installed Kies to get the drivers for odin. It recognised the device without the driver anyway.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sam5154:
AOSP rams usually support both.(in my experience MTP is more stable there too)

MTP connection is only able to do one task at a time. Thus you can't browse while a copy command is in process, etc.

for transferring over WiFi Solid Explorer is faster than ES. 2mb/s against 1mb/s.

I usually use MTP. absolutely stable for me. On a rooted, stock Rom.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rickav:
If it is transferring files to and from your Note 2 (or most other android devices for that matter) that is crucial to you, I would highly suggest Airdroid application to you. It is, similar to the best things in life, a free application that is beyond any other data transfer methods out there. It utilises the full speed of Wi-Fi (and even mobile data with some certain tweaks) and has a vast array of choice of data transfer.

You can: (un)install application apks on your phone, download/upload any file to exactly wherever you want to store it, able to explore the depths of your phone, view/sync/send messages, listen to music, find you phone feature... ALL from the comfort of your browser. Seriously, check it out. It really is, undeniably, amazeballs.

In addition to what Sam5154 said, Solid Explorer is also, in my opinion, the best file explorer you can have on your phone. Furthermore, it is a beautiful app run by respectable developers who really aim for perfection. There is, inevitably, a hitch: All this awesomeness comes at a price of £1.26 after the 14-day trial of the app is over. If you were hedge your money on what a random guy on the internet advised you, I would encourage you to purchase the app (if you like it after the trial, of course).

Take it easy...

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xcly:
Never tried using Mobile Odin but I heard it does support zip files. update.zip is a special type of zip installation files (mostly to do with ota updates) and can be flashed using stock recovery. You should be able to flash any zip files on Mobile Odin as long as they're intended to be installed that way. Custom roms, on the other hand, do not come in update.zip format afaik so you'll have to use CWM or Mobile Odin if it supports that function
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rickav:
Speaking of recovery software, could I just make a li'l case for TeamWin Recovery Project (TWRP). Clearly, everyone knows about ClockworkMod Recovery (CWM) and how "simple" it is to use. However, somewhat recently, CWM implemented the whole CWM ROM Manager app shenanigans whereby you need to make a purchase of the app to perform rather essential tasks such making a backup of your current ROM state, as well as transferring the backup to wherever you damn well please and restore that backup as you so desire. Admittedly, most guides on YouTube will most likely show you methods of flashing involving the CWM sheerly because of its popularity and there's no denying how useful that can be.

On the other hand, TWRP are, I believe, rather strong contenders for the best recovery software. For one thing, it is far more attractive to look as well intuitive as you can touch tiles to convey your biddings to your phone (possibly check out the screenshots on their thread which I helpfully linked you to in the previous paragraph because I have nothing better to waste my life with) and, more importantly, it is still completely free and gives you complete freedom to store backups, restore them, flash multiple zips/ROMs, wipe data/cache/dalvik cache at the touch of one button.

Let me say that don't allow my rant to question your use of CWM. That is what choice is for (and I even helpfully linked you to their thread because that is still more interesting than revising for electrical engineering exams). If you prefer CWM and would like to support their devs, by all means do just that and continue being flamboyantly awesome. I'd just like some of you newbies (heck, even the stubborn regulars) to give something else a shot and, perhaps even, discover how valuable it can be.
