Rooting help

Hey, I have a Galaxy Note 2 (SHV-E250L). It's the Korean variant of the phone and is currently on 4.4.2 KitKat. I would like to root and install a custom ROM, but don't have an idea about how to start. Can someone point me how I can learn more for this specific device? Thanks.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Optimistic Pessimist:
Hello all,

In need of some help with my N7105.

Was running BeanStalk 4.3 when I decided to try out CM-Remix [4.4.4] 3.0.5.0. It installed fine, but soon noticed that my 128gb Microsd card was not being detected in settings>storage and in ES File Manager. I am running bootloader 4.1.2 (XXDMC3)

Was told by someone in the CM-Remix thread, to use TWRP and Agni CM 11 kernel.

Upon flashing TWRP 2.8.0.4, and the CM-Remix rom, it would only display the boot animation, and would not do anything else. Left it for 30mins, and was still showing the boot animation.

I had wiped everything (system, data, preload, cache, dalvik cache, data/media) and tried flashing CM-Remix again. Same thing happened.

Frustrated, I tried flashing slimkat 4.4.4 stable 9 to see if it was my copy of CM-Remix or my device. Slimkat installed fine.

Thinking that redownloading CM-Remix may resolve the problem, did that and tried flashing it again. Loaded up the boot animation (boot loop) and would not proceed further.

I have flashed stock firmware via ODIN, and that seems to load up fine, and is operational. I flashed TWRP via odin, thinking maybe my zip of TWRP was stuffed, thus causing the boot loops. Once TWRP was flashed, I used it to flash SuperSU 2.4.5.

Again, flashed CM-REMIX and bootloop.

Even tried TWRP to change file structure of system, data, cache from ext4 to f2fs, and still CM-Remix boot loops. so i changed them all back to ext4.

Tried flashing slimkat again and now that also boot loops.

Have not yet tried to restore my nandroid of beanstalk yet, as I really want to try out CM-Remix

Obviously something with the phone has changed and is causing these roms to bootloop. Only Flashing a stock firmware via odin seems to get things working properly.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Edit: Just tried restoring my nandroid of BeanStalk, and it too is boot looping

Edit 2: Have created a separate thread so as to get a bit more attention/help, so direct all help there if possible

My Galaxy Note II doesn't Boot after drop to the floor

Hi! I droped my Note 2 yestarday and now it doesn't boot. When I'm pressing the power button, it dowsn't vibrate but it shows the "Samsung Galaxy Note II" logo and it stucks there for a long time and sometimes start to show the "Samsung" animated logo but it freezes again in the start of animation. I have installed CWM custom recover and on the recovery I can boot normaly (by pressing Home+Volume Up+power buttons). So I tried a full wipe/factory reset from there but the prpblem stil remains... I tried to download the official rom from sammibile and flash it via Odin. The odin says the procsess pass normaly but the problem stil remains. Finaly, I opened the phone and I chacked all the connectors etc but I don't see any damage on the inside, so what can I do??

Kernel

How can I install Kernel on custom ROM. I have N7100 with crDroid ROM, and want to flash AGNi? I am using the crDroid for a couple of days, may I just flash AGNi Kernel and use it without factory reset etc.?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tetakpatak:
You can download AGNi kernel as flashable zip file, right?

If the zip file is OK (opens by clicking it and md5sum matches) you can flash it in recovery mode (option "install zip" ). No data lost should happen and factory reset is not necessary.

Hi Thank you for the job you are doing, i'm completely a newbie here and to mobile rooting world:) i have Note 2 N7100 & i have rooted, installed TWRP too. Now i would like to install custom ROM and have seen many video's & followed many threads related to this and i'm confused :D bcoz many users complain that there are few problems, bugs so on so i'm not sure which ROM to be installed,

could you pls guide me to install a better ROM without having any issues later on.

Also if i have to install ROM should i install Kernals prior to that?

thanks for your reply :)

Cheers
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tetakpatak:
You are welcome, mate :)

ROM choice is depending on your needs. If you want me to share the ROM of my preference, it is SlimKat. It is very important besides factory reset to wipe also /system before installing any KK rom. SlimRom has also its own Gapps (Add-ons) with toggleable dark UI mode on their website. If you install build 9 stable, make sure to wipe cache and dalvik cache right after installing ROM and Gapps.

That ROM is cool, has no bugs on my N7100 and TRDS (The Real Dark Slim) mode saves me lots of battery. Also hardware buttons functions are customizable.

First thing you could do is to backup IMEI (EFS folder), your TWRP can do it as *tar, I would also create an *img copy and preserve both copies on few places (also external, on HDD)

Nope, as the ROM would simply overwrite the kernel with its own, stock kernel. On some devices the kernel and the recovery have shared the same partition, so it was not possible to flash only recovery, kernel was in the same package.

You have custom recovery already so you can install custom ROM already. Slim stock kernel is really good, try to use it for some time.

VoLTE problem after rooting and flashing rom

Hey i have rooted my device note 2 n7100 india recently and flashed cyanogen mod 12 lollipop 5.0.2 version everything is working fine. But earlier i have a option of video call in my dialer its a 3g video call option without internet i think it is called as VoLtE now it is not available in this rom. Can u help me out in this issue. Is there any method out there to get it back, for me it works better then network video calling plzz reply thanks
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tetakpatak:
VoLTE (Voice-over-LTE) indeed needs data, as the name says. 3G is also mobile data related, so I'm not sure if you really understood how that feature really worked.

If the feature was created exclusively for Touchwiz phone app, it is likely that it can not be ported to AOSP based ROMs. Workaround: use popular apps like Skype or Hangouts.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Abhi1990*:
Thanks for the reply. U r not understanding me. I don't know the exact name of the service but i'll try to explain you. Look how we make a voice call we open our dialer choose anyone from contact and call them simply earlier i have a option of video calling that person and when i call my main balance gets cut because its a network based call like a voice call. In these type of video calls there is no need to turn on mobile data because its a network based call lika a simple voice call from a mobile number to a mobile number. It is a faster service as it depends on the network signals better the signals better the video call quality.

In every Samsung phone it is there in dialer and i m just asking you is this option is available in this rom aur there are any ways by which it can be enabled and i know there are other ways of video calling apps like hangout viber to etc but the network based video call works best for me plzz do reply if it will not work for me i will have to move back to stock rom but i m loving this rom so i don't want to move back to stock again :) thanks hope u understand what i m saying

Sim unlock problem 4.4.2 Android (API 19) Note 2 LTE GT N7105

Hello

Please can anyone tell me if its possible unlock sim network for the above which is stuck on EE UK

I have read you can’t downgrade from 4.4.2 to jelly bean 4.1.1 for hidden menu from dialler then somewhere else a suggestion to change only the baseband/modem to 4.1.1 and flash with Odin for desktop. Can anyone confirm if this would work or not? If it would, what modem would i need, I have seen these dotted about and not sure. The modem baseband currently on the phone Is N71055VUFNE1

I thought about trying one of those unlock sites but have read a few reviews after paying for the codes some didn’t work, or caused other problems. I tried GalaxSim Unlock; this was unable to do anything

With 4.4.2 I cant get any backup to work with Rom Manager or TWRP, even though SU access is working (used CF-Auto-Root and Odin) Micro card installed partitioned FAT32 and EXT2 link2SD, working tried EXT3 and no go, maybe something to do with kitkat 4.4.2 (api 19) a few comments in other places confirm this

If this cant be unlocked I will have to wait until my contract is up then go with EE. Could I still put a custom rom in place of kitkat 4.4.2 providing custom roms are above 4.4.2? I had 4.1.2 on a HTC wish i could put it on this Note 2 : )

Thanks

Hello guys,

Got a rooted phone, with stock Samsung 4.1.1. on it. I'd like to update it to the latest version. I don't mind losing root, I just don't want to encounter any problems while doing it.

OTA doesn't work, is it safe if I update it via KIES? Or is it more complicated than that? Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tetakpatak:
It should work with Kies, otherwise it will work with Odin in download mode.

Make sure to connect before upgrading at least once your Note with your PC while both OS are running with enabled USB debugging (!) so all drivers get installed on your PC. Just in the case...

Upgrading in general is a good idea, as SDS security patch has been introduced by 4.3 firmware for Note 2, I think.

Don't worry about root, you can gain root access at any point also later.

Hi guys. So, a little background-- I've gotten my Note 2 completely wet before and I kept it overnight in a bowl of rice and was thankfully still working the next day. Yesterday though, I accidentally dropped the bottom half of my phone in a bowl of milk, but I didn't think too much about it since it was only in it for a second and everything was working fine. Then when I tried to move some files over my OTG, things started getting wonky. It wouldn't read by USB, but restarting fixed that. Then I noticed that my my Note 2 was no longer charging when I plugged in my phone. So, I shut the phone down and put it in rice. Started it up this morning, and still, nothing-- it's not charging right now, I'm swapping batteries and charging them using the note 2 stand/charging hub. Is there anything else I can try/do, or is my Note 2 doomed to never use its part again?
