[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jask05:
Hi,

I have a great problem with my device.

Some days ago my device turned off and I could not to use because it freezed in samsung logo screen and I could only use download mode because did not work recovery mode.

I spoke with a technical departmente at 'El corte Inglés' because they works with Samsung and the guy that saw my device told me that the eeprom memory is died and I can't send it to official service technical because they will see that the device has been modified by me (roms, kernel, etc) ...

Well this is my great problem.

Do you know what can I do for delete the counters in download mode or do anything with eeprom memory ?

Thanks!!!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gastonw:
Well...you could always flash another ROM.....

what is eeprom memory anyway? sounds made up.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jask05:
Yes, I thought about it.. hehe

I think eeprom memory is the place where the device store his data (rom, kernel, IMEI, etc).

Thanks

PS: You know a rom that it has '.tar' archive for flash it with Odin ? :confused:

I have been running cleanrom 3.5 for a few weeks and have been very happy. Tonight I'm either going to flash beans 5 or cleanrom 4. Any advice as to what's more stable and smooth? I think the features are pretty similar aside from the aosp theme of beans.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Clamhost:
I would imagine that CleanROM 4.0 is more stable, considering many use CleanROM as there daily driver. Last night I flashed CleanROM 4.0, and haven't had any problems so far. I'm using Verizon Note 2.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] suzook:
They are both stable and smooth. Can't go wrong with either. Its just personal preference.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] lostnuke:
Beans is also a stable daily driver.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] jmorton10:
They are both 100% stable as a DD, I have never had a single problem with either one.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Nvrenough:
Ive run both and I honestly cant make up my mind which to stay with both have been great for me.

Decisions decisions
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Travisdroidx2:
Try both and make your own decision. I like both.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] chakra:
I have to vote for Beans here, very stable, and fast, and he is a great dev also.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] littleguevara:
+1

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Wintrmte:
If you want more of an AOSP look to your Note 2, then Beans is the way to go -- he themes his ROM's to give you that AOSP look.

CleanROM is not themed, but very light weight in terms of removed bloatware and other tweaks that the dev has done to the ROM.

I prefer CleanROM since I'm not really a big fan of the AOSP look/feel (I know.. I'm in the minority here).

But as others have said, you can't go wrong with either ROM, they are fantastic. I'm just hoping some of the themer's out there come to this phone as they did on the S3.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] adrynalyne:
I roll my own.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Benjamin150:
+1

Agreed completely. But the opposite for me, I'm using beans for that AOSP look, coming from the Gnexus, can't go back from it. Plus it's amazingly smooth and stable. Battery life has been great, too.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] tgyberg:
+1 for Beans! I didnt want the N2 until I saw a vid with the AOSP look. Pretty much ran right out and got it after that! :good:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] eraursls1984:
So will we be seeing a BAMF rom? BAMF roms was the only thing that made my thunderbolts bearable. I loved the BAMF Stripped V1.8 Froyo the best.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] adrynalyne:
I don't know. I am the only member with a Note 2 and the abuse seen from some people lately has put off other members. The sense of entitlement from the Android community chases off more talent than anything else.

So, I won't say no, but will leave it as a fading hope, that is still in 'maybe' status but could change to a resounding 'NO'.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] lostnuke:
Beans is actually smaller than clean rom. As far as light weight.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] eraursls1984:
I've seen a lot of devs stop releasing stuff because of all the bs. I wish most devs would just post a "this is my rom, take it or leave it but don't B!TCH!" and just release it as they built it for themselves and let others create mods instead of trying to cater to everyone.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Old MuckenMire:
Can we please keep on topic for a change. :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] adrynalyne:
Pot, meet kettle?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Devildog8791:
I loved your roms on the Alltel HTC Touch (Vogue). You gave us a lot of things to play with on that phone.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] earled:
I agree the developers build for their phone. You should be glad they share this stuff with us. I made a request to beans and actually felt bad about it afterwords.

If you want to have certain features build your own. Thanks to beans and Scott for their work

What? What I was talking about has nothing to do with beans (yet), he gladly takes request (not all are practical though). What I was talking about is the devs who used to do just as beans is doing, but due to all of the bs and entitled users as adrenaline said, a lot of devs quit releasing their work. What I was suggesting was that the devs who are fed up just release their work and just let the users figure everything out on their own and make any mods they want themselves.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] xxxxmarkxxx:
Can I bum 1... lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] shojus:
Actually they don't ALL just dev to build for their own phones but I am sure they would like to perfect it too and allow others to benefit with more features/mods... I know that I am one that has to have a solid setup of Beans Rom, Perseus kernel, Google wallet mod and the apn mod (which is now built inside of Beans rom) but I don't expect them to do it either so that's why I do it all myslelf after I flash the rom. Anyways there are a few devs that got a phone donated to or semi-donated to them and they wanna show us their gratitude in some ways I think and if you read through some threads they actually get money to add certain features/mods to their roms and that person will donate to the dev after it's complete... I do agree that I have seen some CRAZY ass stuff in this forum but I see a whole lotta good too! And their has been alot more donations I think I have ever seen in such a short time and near Christmas! I think I would love to be a dev right now but just require more learning and we all know who the a-holes are in these forums so I am good here. As far as the 2 roms go I am runnin Beans and have not looked back! I have no need for cm10 on this device but plain stock is just boring so flash them both and enjoy! ;)

LMAO! :good:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] earled:
I wasn't responding to you. Sorry if I came off as a ass. I just get tired of people disrespecting developers. If you don't like their rom don't use it. It's like people who ask the same question that's been asked 200 times in the past 2 days, read the f***king OP and the last 5 pages or so and you will usually find the answer. Okay my rant is over.

Sorry, we're on the same page. That's what I was talking about, that is what drives devs away.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] waco2hot33:
I personally like clean rom 4.0 for the stock feel with extras never really been a fanned of aosp look
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] jason1332:
At least there is hope. Your work is legendary and I am glad you are still around... I can think of 3 or 4 devs who have dropped out of xda altogether.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] 1dirtypanda:
Don't forget there is the cleanrom vzw se 1.0 version. I tried this one first and now currently on beans v5. I haven't decided which one I like better yet. Both are solid. Best thing about unlocking and using recovery is you can try both and switch between pretty easily.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] heatpipe:
Here's a vote for Beans rom. After unlocking with Adam's method, I installed Bean's v3 rom, and have been dirty flashing through v5. I couldn't be happier with the stability. Hour long sessions using the hotspot with the family connected while streaming music without breaking a sweat. Battery life is amazing as well.

I also agree Bean is a great dev that has an ear open to the the community. Just peruse the forums to see how simple requests find their way into the rom.

Truly production quality releases. Great job Beans.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Amin Sabet:
Both CleanROM ACE 4.0.5V and Jelly 'Beans' Build 5 have been rock solid for me - stable, smooth, full-featured, great battery, and no-issues with radio, reception, or GPS.

Beans gives you some options that may cause a bug or two. For example if you choose the AOSP MMS over Touchwiz MMS, I think you have to send twice. I don't use that option and after extensive use have not come across any bugs on that ROM.

As others have said, Beans is more AOSP looking overall. It also has some built-in theming options (eg battery icon, clock location, etc) and extras (eg, stock 4.2 keyboard option) which aren't in CleanROM. Surprisingly the latest versions of both ROMs omit Swype, which is an included keyboard on the stock ROM. Not a big deal to me - I just installed the latest beta version.

Both ROMs are very fully-featured, keeping the best of Touchwiz functionality and adding to that.

CleanROM is Android 4.1.2 while Beans is 4.1.1. Beans has some of the added features that came with the 4.1.2 update to the international Note II, but not all of them. For example, 4.1.2 brings settings to enable/disable the brightness slider in notification panel, which is missing in Beans.

I've used both ROMs as my daily driver, and I've donated to both devs for their great work. We're lucky to have them both working on our Verizon Note IIs.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Bill Idol:
True that, true that. Bamf rom definitely was the rom that made my Thunderbolt bearable.

---------- Post added at 08:26 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:16 AM ----------

Man, I'll take any devs rom over stock, I'll take any mods they put into their roms and I'm happy with it. I'm just glad to have a phone different from all the other gnote 2 owners who don't root their phones. BTW, both roms, Beans and Clean are great roms for DD.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] themichael:
Thanks for all the great responses. In the end I decided to go with cleanrom 4.0.5. I was blown away with 3.5 and couldn't imagine any ROM capturing the essence of the note 2 any better. I'm sure beans is great but something about being android 4.1.2 over 4.1.1 screams bleeding edge.

I will likely try beans at some point in my devices history but for now its cleanrom.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] WarlockLord:
I'm using jelly thunder blackout and its awesome. I just flashed it and then flashed scotts vzw patch and have had no problems at all.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] iphoneislame:
I've never done any kind of unlocking/rooting on my phone up until my note 2 so I was worried about running custom roms with my limited knowledge. But I've been running beans since build 3 with no problems. Awesome format and customizability. Definitely worth a flash.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] JonKyu:
I've used both and both are great. Loved the aosp look of beans. Both are smooth as butter. The only reason I use Clean rom is that he uses the international build as a base so his is usually more up to date. At least that's what I understood, sorry if that's inaccurate.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Izord:
CleanRom Ace is based off a newer International build from Samsung.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] tgyberg:
Actually bleeding edge is 4.2 but we cant get that quite yet!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] JRunner01:
Can you elaborate on what is meant by the latest beta version to get swype back? Is that the latest beta version of the custom rom or a patch or something on top of the custom ROM?

Thanks...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] jmorton10:
He meant the latest beta version of swipe.

---------- Post added at 06:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:01 PM ----------

After trying both ROMs, I can tell you it makes absolutely NO DIFFERENCE which version you run.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] pgreeny69:
Do you have any links to this rom and patch? I'd love to check it out. Thsnks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] adrynalyne:
Actually, its 4.2.1.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] adrynalyne:
Really? It screams placebo to me ;)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Amin Sabet:
Is the ROM you rolled for yourself 4.2.1 by any chance?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] adrynalyne:
No.

:(
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Travisdroidx2:
I just came from the gnex with 4.2.1 and I have 4.2.1 on my nexus 7. But to be honest 4.1.2 seems to run better imo. 4.2 broke a lot and still does not run as well I think. Just another opinion.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] adrynalyne:
Not an opinion.

Fact.

4.2.x is garbage right now. Worst Android release in a good long while.

The new features introduced are nice. The stability issues are definitely not.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] JetBlue:
Are these stability issues that Developers have problems with or Stock 4.2.x users because my brother who has the Nexus 7 hasn't had any problems with it with lag or anything that I keep seeing usually just apps not working right.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] flagdown87:
plus one

---------- Post added at 02:08 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:03 AM ----------

dang
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Travisdroidx2:
On 4.2 it caused problems for several apps. Broke usb otg in 4.2 and chainfire had to quickly update stickmount app to get it to work. 4.2 also broke tablet mode. New lockscreen was horrible in my opinion. Plus all over nexus 7 threads here on xda many users have reboot issues after going to 4.2

On my gnex with 4.1.2 then use 4.2 camera and keyboard and that was a good combo.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] adrynalyne:
They are situational, depending on apps used and features used with them.

Lockscreen widgets is an issue with certain apps and hot reboots.

The bug itself is in Android.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] tgyberg:
Yea, I know.. Went between getting the GN2 and the Nexus 4 for quite a while. I just didnt think the .1 was worth mentioning! :p
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] adrynalyne:
As sad as 4.2 is, mentioning every minor release is important ;)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] bjtcars:
Another vote for beans here. I have run them both and you cant go wrong with either one but if forced to pick it would be beans for the more customization.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] JRunner01:
So that means after installing either of these ROMs I will need to download swipe from Google Play?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Chance77:
I Stand Corrected! Can i call a tie?

I used Scott's on my S3 and now my Note 2. Very Stable, No issues(at least for my use). Im Currently on ACE 4.0.5 with L7 kernel, throw in some icedventimocha mini themes or full themes and you have almost everything you want. i also added the light saber mod, and changed a couple ui sounds to give a more unique/personal touch to mine and no problems. Now with that being said, i thrive for change, i live to adapt to constantly changing surroundings, environments, and experiences. So today i am taking a leap, going for yet another full factory wipe, and going to give Beans a run. Beans ROM seems to have a lot of minor tweaks and custom options right out of the box. I will give an honest unbiased opinion by next week and see if my +1 for Scott's still stand. I do not look forward to constantly wiping and manually re-installing everything i use and need. But again i like change and with everybody raving about both Roms, i do not want to feel like i missed the bus without trying both out! Countdown to Beans Begins Now!

They Are Both GREAT Rom Chefs!!!! Awesome Work scrosler , Awesome Work beanstown106 .. I was not sure if i would quit using the CleanRom As it was very stable,fast and gave many choices and options. Now that i have flashes JellyBeans i am torn... i do not know if i will go back. after a day, it seems as stable, as fast...but a couple more personalization option during aroma install. I did try installing the L7 kernel onto Build 6 and it either did not take or was not needed/same? but if i had to pick one of two...which i dont want to call it as it is sooo close...i think anybody would be happy with both roms if looking for stability and options. but with the couple extra mods thrown into beans i am leaning that way. But only by the narrowist margin.(if scrosler threw in Beats Audio, and maybee some selectible battery mods) it would be a dead on tie photo finish. As it stands on CleanRom 4.0.5 vs. JellyBeans Build 6.. A quarte mile race has beanstown106 finishing .005 faster than scrosler.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] jmorton10:
What are you saying here??

If you like Beans ROM then Scotts no longer rates a +1??
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Chance77:
Edit: Corrected

I was unsure as my post stated i was installing beans as i wrote it. But i have corrected my +1 ...To A Neck and Neck Race

I really think BOTH ARE excellent ROMS... Much Thanks To scrosler and beanstown106 !!!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Bill Idol:
I like running Beans 4.1.1 not only because it runs smooth and everything works but because tablet ui is sick and I heard that tablet ui doesn't work too well on 4.1.2. Can anyone confirm this, has anyone run tablet ui on Clean Rom?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] JRunner01:
bump for question...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] JetBlue:
Are you asking about Swype as in the one that came with the Samsung keyboard or Swype beta? Swype in samsung keyboard is in CleanRom and I believe it's an option in Beans but both ROMS don't have swype beta in them that you'd have to download it from their website.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] JRunner01:
Thanks...

But whats the difference? If you have the one in the samsung keyboard why would you need the other?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DirtyDrizzt:
Does Beans have the S Pen functions?

I'm running CleanROM bc of the S Pen. I'm a noob at this stuff this is my first Android and just rooted it last week. Also if anyone knows how to get the wallet and USB mass storage to work I can use some help.

What do you want it for ?

Are you going to root/use a custom ROM ?

For general use the tabs ok, nothing special. Some nice ROMS available for it. All depends on what you want to use it for and how far you are willing to customize it !

as a replacement for my desire ( which i used as a second phone) primary use will be just to browse the net...maybe occasional calls but unlikely..

rooting wise - very noob at that so prob will leave it as standard
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] Sean_Seany:
Its a little good tab , Plays most media out of the box. Think you'll get Ice Cream Sandwich on it ...Most recent ROM is JellyBean. The official updates are very slow from Samsung. You wont get all the top games for it on Google play but have a massive selection to choose from. I cant think of any bugs as such , although it gets a little laggy at times using a stock ROM, hence Root/Custom ROMs but its up to you.

You will get tons of Samsung's bloatware added to the ROM and it uses up space ... you have an external SD Card slot but you cant install apps on it.Its for media only.So space could become an issue over time. Another good reason to Root.You can flash an deodexed stock ROM back on to it with all the crap removed.

You will get plenty of support on the SGT7 forum, most users are friendly and very helpful. Just noticed the calls ... you want a P3100 , cant comment on the phone side of it as I'm WiFi only.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] Slavestate:
Its a nice tablet but if my 3113 wasnt a gift, id rather have gone with a 16gb Nexus not only for the Google support but the storage size as well. That measly 5gb available for storage goes quick. The sd card slot is almost a waste unless you download alot of crap or want to store roms on it.
