[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Toubab2:
Hi,

These are probably newbies questions but I could not find a definitive answer for them. Basically, I think I am having some mismatch between my CSC code and my location.

I bought my GT-N7000 in Senegal (where I live) a bit more than a year ago, with a GB ROM. A couple of weeks afterwards, I received an OTA update (pushed) without any issue, apparently the last one on GB. Then the Note was caught in a storm and the motherboard was fried. The local after-sales service ordered a new motherboard, which was installed in August. Since then, I have not received a single OTA notification.

A few weeks ago, I tried to force OTA to check updates, but I keep getting a Server connection error. I installed Kies but am then getting the Device not supported error, though I have not rooted the phone or changed anything from the stock base. I also tried both processes while visiting in France, using a French (Bouygues) sim card but with a similar result.

The *#1234# maneuver gives the following:

PDA: N7000UBKK8

Phone: N7000UBKK3

CSC: N7000CHOKK3

The CHO CSC code is confirmed on Kies. Apparently, this is a code for Chile, so I don't quite understand why I would have it for a Senegalese phone. When using the 272 + IMEI code, I also get the CHO code, with no alternative choice.

I tried looking through various sources, here and on SM, but cannot find any confirmation as to what the CSC code for Senegal should be (i.e some national code or a regional / open one), as I did not check this with my initial motherboard.

The local after sales service has no idea about any of this ("you should not try to update too much via OTA, your will fry your motor") and they suggest the current GB 2.3.6 ROM is indeed the latest one available here. So my questions are:

1. Is there a way to confirm this latter assertion?

2. In case there is in fact a newer stock ROM but the CHO "discrepancy" (provided it is indeed a mismatch) prevents it from being reachable on OTA and Kies, to which code should I change my CSC to make them available again?

3. Should this change not be possible (or the CHO code be the correct one), which ROM (most likely JB) should I use via Odin to be sure I will still be able to use any and all of my local setup. Since there is no reliable Wifi here, I have to rely on 3G (this gets all the more tricky since I am using a small operator (Expresso) instead of the large Orange one) so losing the expresso APN in the flashing process is not an option (I understand crashing APNs can be a drawback of flashing non-national ROMs on Odin, maybe I'm wrong).

Sorry if this is all very basic, but not finding any specific, local info is getting a bit frustrating

Thanks
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] treacherous_hawk:
You can try CSC Changer from play store but i doubt that you will find csc for your country there, even if you do and you choose it, it will format your phone. JB update is available in Africa but not in your country, nearest one being south africa and kenya. You can flash firmware for any of these countries. Regarding APN Settings: if you are rooted used TBP to backup your APN settings or even My Backup Pro can also backup your APN Settings which you can restore after flashing firmware for any of the 2 countries mentioned above.

Make sure to format everything from recovery (ofcourse after backup) and flash JB using Odin.

Good Luck!!!

Cheers!!!

I am not having much luck with my new headset.

First time I bond the headset it works fine, but once bluetooth tools shuts down the bluetooth after a call, the headset it never gets it back correct.

The headset will still link and the call button will take the call, but I can't communicate.

After you have taken a call on the headset, is there a way of getting the call back onto the xda?

I even tried leaving the bluetooth on all the time but that wasn't that successful either.

Anyone else using the logitech can they please advise me how they manage it's use.

Thanks.

I have been using logitech BT headphones love the unit. I dont have any problems except for the delay for it to connect to the phones. I have to wait for about 2 seconds before its connected to the phones when receiving calls. BTW I have been using it for the past 6 months. 8)
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Blaze_au:
Do you use Bluetooth tools or just the stock standard bluetooth support?

Thanks.

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] El.Guaje:
I have a Xperia Z C6602 with JB 4.1.2 build 434 LOCKED BOOTLOADER. I've rooted the phone with Bin4ry's tool. After the rooting, I install CWM v4 and then I restart the phone. When I use root explorer and to to system and mount R/O or using Titanium backup and try to delete system's file and the phone reboot itself and it stucks in sony logo and keep rebooting. I have the re-flash the ROM using Sony Update Service and try to root agian. The same issue happens...
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SXUsr:
Don't use a pre-rooted ROM, seems like this is a common problem on locked bootloaders.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] El.Guaje:
What do you mean "pre-rooted ROM" ?

I update using Sony Update Service, it's a clean rom or pre-rooted rom?
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vibecatalin:
I had that kind of problem. I've flashed with Flashtool and wiped everything. Now I see it is working.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] El.Guaje:
it didn't work for me :(
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] El.Guaje:
Anybody please :(
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LitoNi:
1-repair your phone with Sony update service.

2-go to settings > backup and reset > factory data reset (internal wipe, so back it up the things you need)

3-root with this method. Make sure you understand everything before proceeding.

Goodluck
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] El.Guaje:
I've tried every way I can. Use flash-tool flash ROM and wipe everything, using SUS. I believe that Bin4ry's tool is based on goroh_kun and huhka_com's toolkit.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LitoNi:
when gorohkun and huhka first released their rooting method, I first tried Bin4ry's tool but it failed to root my phone. Then i went over to doomlord's thread which is the original way (gorohkun and huhka) to root the phone and it was successful. I've rooted my T,ZL,Z countless time without any issues.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] El.Guaje:
Thanks, I'll give it a try.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vibecatalin:
And try to install TWRP not CWM. Just an idea.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DeathlessOne:
Try using v30 rooting toolkit, it solves all the reboot problems!

[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndyFox2011:
Hey guys,

i bought a HTC Hero to fix, it came today and has a weird problem;

The last owner rooted it and flashed CM7, but it won't boot, just stays at the Hero screen, after a few battery pulls it does boot into Safe Mode where it can be used to a limited amount

The best bit is it won't reboot into recovery, and when i try the key combo for fastboot it shows up then after a second reboots the phone

I don't know if any of you have seen this before, i'm gonna try some stuff this afternoon to get it running again, i just wondered if you guys have any ideas about whats happened to it!
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndyFox2011:
Update: RUUd it back to stock 2.1

Only boots into safe mode though, and still no sign of a recovery mode :(
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trevd:
Hi There,

have you got adb in safe mode? If so do "adb reboot recovery" that should see you right.... although whether it stays in recovery is another matter ... it doesn't sound too happy with itself!
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndyFox2011:
I could literally only boot into safe mode, adb commands would just restart it into normal booting where it would no boot and just turned off

I think the motherboard is dead :(
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trevd:
Sounds like it wants to die. The hero boards like many HTCs come in 2 main parts. They're only about 20 quid each. Well they were last time I bought parts :D

I've just got mine back off my mate. I've got the Aosp manifest for android version 1.0 .... Going to build a retro ROM. :p lol

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] projeto56:
Have you followed the proper installation instructions on every ROM you tested? (wiping Data and other partitions)

Do you also get the freezes when connected to your charger?

i install new rom following way

1.enter into recovery

2.format data

4.wipe partitions

5.wipe delvic cache

How about when the charger is connected? It may be your battery that is screwed up. Or maybe some rogue app that is consuming your resources.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vikas64vk@gmail.com:
no i dont have any problem while charging,yes when i open some app then it stops,,like on previous rom i open 'wallpaper chooser' then it freeze..

Right now i am on rooted stock rom,and did not receive any problem yet.

On this rom i dont restored my previous apps data using titanium backup and it is working fine now until today...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] projeto56:
Try to restore the smallest number of apps possible, always reinstall them from the play store. And NEVER restore system apps.

This should keep you free of your problems. :)

[Nexus 7 General] BIFFTAZ:
I'm looking to get rid of my iPad 3 16gb and get a new android tablet. I can get £210-£230 for my iPad 3, And I won't be able to add money to it for a few weeks to a month to get another tablet

So, Do you think I should go ahead and get a nexus 7 32gb? Or keep/wait/save?

Just need some help deciding...
[Nexus 7 General] issak42:
What's wrong with the iPad?

Wait at least another week, until googles keynote is over, MAYBE they'll announce anything new, like a refreshed Nexus 7 or something.

Other than that, you know benefits of android (based on N4 that you have) over iOS, so it's your choice. If you like smaller screen, go for N7, if you like the big thing, stay with iPad, because bigger screen android tablets actually worth getting are around 400$/€/GBP.

N7 is still THE 7" tablet to get I think, you can take a look at 8" galaxy note, that thing looks quite nice, and you get a bit more screen size because of physical buttons.

At least wait until googles keynote is over, and decide then.

PS: In slovenia people are selling iPads 3 16GB (3G) for around 350 (450)€
[Nexus 7 General] Tommy-Geenexus:
I suggest you to wait. The next nexus 7 will soon be released and won't be more expensive than the actual. Also ipad 3 has a lot better processor, but it's understandable that you get rid of ios like me.
[Nexus 7 General] PVL_93_RU:
Why not downgrade from iPad 3 to iPad 2 and from the money get youself a N7?

That way you an keep a 10" tablet and acquire a portable 7" one
[Nexus 7 General] kzkalra:
Yesterday I sold my iPad 3 with cellular and bought iPad 4. I also got nexus 7 32gb for £130 on eBay really good condition. Having tried both os I wouldn't recommend getting rid of iPad 3 for nexus 7.

I would first test android before a complete switch. Also it makes sense to wait for new version so that don't feel downgrade in resolution.

So I just got a Galaxy Note N-7000 from my dad,and it is already rooted,

but I'm looking to replace my ROM so I have a few questions (hope this is the right place to open this thread in,if not - sorry in advance):

1.Can anyone recommend a JB based rom with nice (not the most important factor to me) design,that mainley runs smooth and FC-free?

[Also very important to me - I need something I can install hebrew on)

2.Does anybody know any JB based roms that have full hebrew support?

[This is the only one I have found :http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2208589

and I'm not so sure about it,any feedbacks for pros&cons for this ROM will be greatly appreciated. ]

Thank you! :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] projeto56:
Welcome! :D

That is a nice TW (stock samgsung software) based rom, with some tweaks and a diferent kernel you can make it really fast.

On the other hand, as you said you want it to look good I'd recommend you to use VengeanceNote TW, as it's MIUI over the TW base. It is fast. It is beautiful. I'm not sure about the hebrew support tough, you might want to head to the thread and ask there. The dev, Gerrett, is preetty nice and wil most definitely help you as much aas he can.

If you want to use an AOSP ( Google software ) I'd most definitely recommend you Asylum + NX Kernel. This is as fast as my note has ever been. Don't worry about everyone on the thread being crazy tough. Thay are nice after you get used to them :P

Anyway, good luck with your phone :) You'll love it :D
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beniferg:
First of all - thank you very much for your quick comment :D

It's good to meet nice and kind people like you! :good:

Second of all - about that VenganceNote TW - it looks very nice but I had a very bad experience with MIUI on my old SGS,

tons of FC and sometimes I coulden't take calls.

Do you know if this one is stable?

Also,do you know anything about this one ? :

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2185614

Would you recommend it?

TY again!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] projeto56:
You're lucky then, I had FC on all ROMs i've used on my SGS :P

I've used VengeanceNote for a long time. It is very stable indeed. Only problem i could remember is that it had a duplicated root manager app, but if you opened the right one you would have no problem at all. I'm just waiting for a custom kernel to support it so i can jump back to it. :D

Never used Carbon Rom itself, but from what i've experienced with this all-in-one roms, they're not very stable.

I'd say if you're interested on AOSP Asylum is the way to go. It's really clean and fast. And if you don't like the all black look you can always install CM10 themes :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beniferg:
I think that would be great,as I said I'm looking for a fast,clean ROM and Asylum sounds perfect,

just 2 more small questions:

1.About that kernel you've recommended,is it mendatory to install with Asylum or I can just stick with my PhilZ kernel ?

2.I would love it if you could explain to me how to install some CM10 themes and where to get them !
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] projeto56:
Nop, you can use phlz for flashing, but Asylum will overwrite it with CM10 kernel. But i recommend flashing NX after you flashed the rom. It has OC support and GPU clock control. It makes things really smooth.

About the themes you can get them on play store or on some threads here on xda. A quick google search for "CM10 theme" will show you lots of results.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beniferg:
It won't work if I flash the Asylum and after it overwrites it with CM10 kernel I flash the PhilZ kernel? (Instead of NX)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] projeto56:
As far as i know philz is for TW only, so it won't work.

Any specific reason you want to stick with it?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beniferg:
Ummm,actually no,my dad just recommended it to me he said PhilZ is one of the best kernels developers out there,

and that its very safe to use his recovery (maybe I didn't understand correctly but I heard there was a problem some time ago with

ICS kernels/wiping or something,and that this phone got bricked once because of that)

He also said speedmod is great,but I dunno that guy or his kernels lol.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] projeto56:
Indeed he's a great dev, and he saved many of us from bricking our devices :D

On stock samsung kernels, there's a bug, that when you wipe your data partition on recovery it corrupt's the memory chip, rendering it useless. So if you are going to use stock roms on your phone, either don't wipe or stick to safe kernels.

On the other hand, the AOSP kernels don't show such behaviour and are generally safe. So if your going with Asylum, don't worry. You're safe.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beniferg:
Great!! :)

BTW:

AirView+Ink Effect are built in Asylum?

If not,can I add them somehow?

[You have a lot of patience for my questions,I appreciate it alot! ]
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] projeto56:
No, unfortunatelly you can't add thos features on any AOSP rom. Neither those nor Snote and other TW apps. :(

VengeanceNote include them tough. Seems you have to make your choice :P

No problem man :) I felt lost when i've changed my phone, and if someone haven't made the same thing for me i would have probably bricked it :P
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beniferg:
LOL :)

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nitrox1:
I'm having a problem with my galaxy nexus.

After going over my warranty by a month,I started to suffer from the odd charging bug that seems common in GN especially after the 4.2.2 update.

I started with intermittent charging issues, sometimes it would charge, sometimes it wouldn't.

It then got to the point were it didn't charge.

After googling and searching through the internet I found this to be a common problem.

There seemed to be several fixes, change usb circuit board, bending usb tabs, restarting bootloader, flashing bootloader, new battery etc.

I can safely say I have been through them all.

I can still not charge my phone after; a new usb circuit board, and new battery. I did have a glimmer of hope with a flash of 4.1.2 Google factory image, where it started to start charging but then stopped.

In #*#*info*#*# under battery, it notices a usb or ac feed connected, and my computer registers that it's connected, and can enter fastboot and adb. But never says charging.

The one that concerns me the most, is when the phone was powered off, and I plugged in a charger, I would get a charging partition boot up, showing a battery with lightning bolt on it. I no longer get this.

When I plug it in to my computer,I get a connection tone, but then an item not working properly tone, and under device manager it shows item not working properly, and updating drivers doesn't help.

Usb hot wiring the battery, gets everything working, but it's very dodgy.

Do you have any ideas? Is there a protected partition for charging (that is available on boot)? Could that get corrupted? And can it be reflashed?

Any help is very much appreciated

Thanks

So... I'm not saying issue was similar but it's close. I started having charging issues yadda yadda... plugged in saying charging, sometimes saying nothing. Battery drain was ridiculous. With the phone off, it's show as charging but once turned on after hours it would show half charged. I have three batteries and a bunch of charges all the same issue. I swapped out the USB from a broken GN I had and still the issue persisted. Eventually, I saved my data and swapped out the circuit board for the one on the broken phone and all is well. Every battery I placed in the phone was charged... I get a full charge yadda yadda. I'm not saying it's a similar issue but it's close. You might be able to find a broken GN (screen, no water damage) for cheap on ebay and do what I did... just a suggestion.
