[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spectre Nine:
Hey guys,

I did a search online and haven't come up with anything conclusive on this so I'm hoping someone can help, or at least point me in the right direction.

I have a Note 2 that has been fine for the last month or two. It was initially on 4.1.1 and I updated to 4.1.2.

All was fine for a good while but in the last couple of weeks I have found myself at my "ENTER PIN" screen when I take the phone out of my pocket so it has crashed and rebooted while it wasn't being used.

I then noticed that It had been getting progressively worse and would happen more often, even freezing up while using it and refusing to respond to presses of any of the buttons. I would have to resort to pulling the battery. Its gotten to the point where I struggle to get an hour out of it without having an issue and its really pissing me off now. Occasionally when It would suffer the freeze, it would come back and sometimes say "Touchwiz has crashed" etc. I'm not sure if that's related to the problem itself, or a result of the symptoms.

I factory reset the phone a few times, also entering recovery mode and clearing cache, factory resetting that way etc.

I even downloaded a fresh 4.1.2 for my country and flashed that with Odin, It seemed better for a little while, but still no change, Its still unreliable.

Has anyone on here had the same problem? Any common causes to look into?

I don't have a warranty on it, so Its either repair it (hopefully) or make a YouTube video of it being shot and then crushed in my vice...

I'd very much appriciate any tips/advice, thanks in advance. :)

For people that would know about this sort of thing I would think they would need to know what rom/modem/kernel your using if its rooted. If you let people know what your running they may let you know if they have experienced similar problems and or potential fixes/suggestions.

Edit: ive just done a internet search and loads of threads coming up about an sd card problem with the gs3 with the same build number. There suggesting to turn off phone remove sd card and reboot without the sd card inserted. If your phone doesnt freeze then its your sd card playing up. Which means it may need to be formated... I know its a pain but try your phone with no sd card and see if it keeps freezing and crashing. If it does freeze and crash with no sd card then we can rule that out.. meanwhile I'll keep digging for you and hopefully someone else will see this post aswell..

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spectre Nine:
Brilliant, thanks for the info so far. :)

I have tried it without SD card and also without sim to see if there's any change but alas, it's still the same unfortunately.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bearusa:
We can rule out the sd card then.. meanwhile im still searching for you..

Edit: I have found this on google search.

It suggests flashing official uk rom.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spectre Nine:
Thanks again, Is the first option not the firmware that my phone is already running though? I'm currently downloading the N7100OXXDMB2 so I'll try that and hopefully it'll cure my problems. :)
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bearusa:
Im not sure mate but thats what I found.. I strongly suggest that you root and backup the efs folder before you install with odin just as a precaution and safety measure. Also if you decide to root and flash copy the efs folder to your pc aswell for safe keeping..

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spectre Nine:
Cool, I'm gonna root it now and grab a copy of it before I flash the new firmware. Its taking ages to download anyway so I'll post back with my findings.

Thanks for the help mate. :)
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bearusa:
Root it but make sure for the love of god to get that efs backup and a copy before you install the rom with odin.

Yeah that's exactly what I'm gonna do. Do you think I should do it with this tool? or some other way?

Personally I just root mine. Then copy straight from system. I use root explorer but there are many root file explorers on play store free and paid. Ive never used what you linked to there so I cant comment on that..

Edit: ps I have a n7105 its not as important for me to backup my efs folder as it is for your n7100. I do it just in case. With yours its a 100% necessity.

Little update:

I flashed the file with Odin and all seemed well. However when I reboot the phone and go through the usual process of selecting language, time zone etc. I get to the google sign in part, or sometimes only to the samsung sign in part and it freezes up. I can't seem to get any further with it at the moment.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bearusa:
Sorry to hear that. Its a fresh stock rom I thought it would solve that issue. Have you installed cwm perhaps a full wipe wipe cache partition and dalvik wipe might help it along.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spectre Nine:
Thats what I'm trying now, so here's hoping. I flashed CWM and tried clearing everything but with no luck, so im going to try flashing another stock rom just incase the one I got was bad or something. it seems even more unstable than the previous one.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spectre Nine:
So I flashed the old one back on with odin and although I finally got past initial setup, I'm still having regular freeze ups etc. The screen just goes black and all I can see is the status bar at the top and there's no response from the phone. If I press the lock key it'll turn off the screen and when I press it again I'll return to the black screen with status bar etc instead of being greeted with the lock screen.

I'm getting really impatient with this phone now...

I'm gonna try a few more things and see if I can at least improve it a little. If not it's a HTC One for me I think.

Hi mate. In general the galaxy line is very good. Its just that the n7100 has a few issues because of its motherboard. I have the n7105 LTE version and we dont get the problems the n7100 suffers from.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spectre Nine:
Just a quick update, I had lots of trouble with it even getting to the start screen after the previous efforts but I then decided to flash cwm again and with that I flashed the Omega ROM from this forum. It was a bit of a long shot i figured, but It's been way more stable so far, which is really reassuring as it kinda confirms to me that hardware'wise my phone should be fine. This ROM seems to do everything I need so I might stick with it, but that'll be clearer after a few more hours when I find out if the problem is indeed gone.

I really appreciate the help and info so far. :)

If omega rom sorts the problem id say stick with it mate..

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spectre Nine:
So I got pretty much a full day out of the phone now since flashing Omega. I purposely tried to use it as often as possible and to make it run some of the more demanding tasks and thankfully It has been 100% reliable so far. I'm delighted I didn't resort to smashing the phone in the end, I was soooo close to it. :D

Patience is a virtue my friend. Lets hope it stays stable now..

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] docfoolio:
I'm really hoping someone out there can help me with what the hell is going on with my phone haha. No matter what rom/kernel combo I try (believe me I've literally tried them all) I cannot get my phone to connect to the wifi at my work. Using the stock sense rom I am able to connect no problem but anything else will attempt to connect and then stop going back to just "saved" and it refuses to try and reconnect. The wifi connection we use here is WEP consisting of 26 numbers and lowercase letters. Anyone have any idea of what is wrong? On a side note my phone will connect to my wpa2 connection at home just fine.

Thanks in advance!
[General Questions and Answers] finnmacool:
So, my service provider (Telus) now charges .40 for any text message sent from Canada to the US. Grr..

Is there an app that can provide me an alternative to paying this outrageous fee?
[General Questions and Answers] Product F(RED):
Specifically a texting app? I would recommend Google Voice since it's free to text the US and Canada, however you have to be based in the US to use it. If you don't mind messenger-type apps, there's Whatsapp and also Facebook Messenger. I personally prefer and use Whatsapp. It's free for a year, and 99 cents a year afterwards. It doesn't use usernames; it authenticates with your phone number and you contact people via phone number (contacts).

Hi,

I have a Motorola V XT885 and I have no idea if there is a way to install a custom recovery such as TWRP or CWM, is it possible ?

I believe there is not support for this device yet,I read somewhere that you can install BMM but what's the point if you dont have any custom roms to flash? You could end up soft bricking your device.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] phil_drew:
OK, here's one that you should all be able to help me with.

I am a programer, but have not yet begun to create programs for my XDA 2i. I REALLY don't know where to start... I bought MS C++ .NET with the possibly misguided impression that it was supposed to be rather like the Java virtual machine, and that I could simply whip up an exe on my PC then move it to the PPC and it would just work...

But now I'm SO confused. What's all this about SDKs and having different ones for different versions of Windows mobile? And then there's the compact .NET framework, and then there's ASP, but I'm fairly comfortable that that's a different issue entirely.

SO MY QUESTION IS THIS:

What is the simplest way for me to begin writing C/C++ programs to run on my XDA 2i? I'm not interested for the moment in phone or other connection aspects - let's say I'm trying to write a visual calculator. So simple logical operations and a simple GUI.

I have experience with MS visual studio C++, and I can use libraries when told which ones to use, but am otherwise uninterested in them.

I gather the absolute simplest solution might be to write some JScript, but I want to use .NET C++ since I forked out for it.

The trouble is, there's so much info out there. Please help, then maybe one day I can start contributing useful info to this site too.

Thanks everyone!

I flashed, factory bootloader, radio, and 4.3.zip, but Windows 8 will not allow me to install the Google usb_driver update that I installed from the SDK manager.

I've restarted my computer, uninstalled the driver and reinstalled. I'm not sure if it matters, but I was running 4.2.2 rooted and deodexed with CWM recovery before. I also skipped the w- switch when I installed the .zip, so as not to lose any data. I wouldn't mind backing up my phone and reflashing with the w- switch, but I'm not sure how to go about doing that, since my computer won't even recognize my phone as a storage device anymore. I am using the cable that came with the phone too. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nyijedi:
If you don't want to install a custom recovery, you can use fastboot to just boot to it once and install supersu, without actually flashing the recovery. Just download the recovery (I've always used Cwm for this), put it in the folder with fastboot, boot to the bootloader, and type fastboot boot imagename.img. You'll reboot to the custom recovery, but it won't flash it.
