As rootSU says, you need a new motherboard. If your are in the EU then you should still get warranty repair, even with root, as your flash counter is still zero.

Hi,

I'm using custom roms on note 2 since I bought it (almost a year), but these 4.3 roms don't come with Samsung Apps Apk.

I can't use my smartphone without S pen apps, someone please share the Note 2 Samsung Apps Apk?

Do we have some similar apps to use S Pen that takes place of Samsung ones?

Thank you.

Of course there are alternative Samsung apps but you can't keep all Samsung features like Airview.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] stanglifemike:
So I file a claim, pay the $200, and they sent me a replacement. It had a mark on the top right chrome trim ring, but I was just gonna deal with it as it was really tiny, even though I'm super picky about my devices. After I put my UAG case on it though, I noticed that the case didn't fit just right, and there was a gap in between the glass and the chrome trim. Also, the charger they sent was black instead of white. Most importantly though it was just 1 piece, with no usb to micro usb cable, and also rated at only 0.7A output. So I called them up, told them about my issues, and a replacement of both was being sent.

I received the replacements and the phone looked perfect. The charger was 2 piece this time, but still only rated at 0.7A output, and black again. So I'm on the phone with Sprint getting it activated, but I'm not getting an LTE signal, and I always get an awesome LTE signal at my house(36mbps download and 15mbps upload)!! The Sprint rep keeps trying to resend the data signal, and reset that signal, or whatever it is they do. After about 20 minutes of her trying everything she could, she noted my account that the device was faulty. I also told her about the charger only being 0.7A an she told me not to use it, an if I did then Assurion would be sending me another replacement before long. She said that they've had multiple S3's overheat and catch fire because the phone is trying to pull 2A from a charger that's not capable of 2A, and it's causing problems. Not saying that this is true, it's just what the Sprint rep told me.

So I called Assurion AGAIN an told them about the ongoing problems I've had and what Sprint had just told me. The rep transferred me to a manager, he apologized, and said that they would send me a new Note 2 since I've kept having ongoing problems with their refurbished units! He also said that I could keep any accessories that I wanted because all they need back is the phone itself! The next morning FedEx pulled up with my package, I open it up and sure enough I have a new Note 2 in an unopened box!!! I was really surprised that they actually did send me a new device in the box, just like I had just bought it off that shelf!!!

So I now have a new Note 2 with a numbers matching box, 3 batteries, 3 battery doors, and 3 S-Pens!! Having a numbers matching box and a device that will only be 3 or 4 months when the Note 3 comes to Sprint, should definitely bring top dollar when I go to sell it!! Not to mention having extra batteries, battery doors, S-Pens, chargers, official Samsung TPU case and flip cover, other name brand cases, etc.

Anyway, just thought I'd share my good luck that I had with Assurion! Makes me feel better about paying for insurance for so many years and never filing a claim before! Assurion surprised me and definitely hooked me up this time!!! Now I'm glad I had issues with the first 2 replacements because it definitely paid off in the end!! I'm one happy guy!!!! Big props to Assurion!!!

What happened to your original phone?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] stanglifemike:
VERY LUCKY!! :D

Thanks!! This was a VERY successful story for me!!

I reported my device lost, and my charger was also in the little bag my phone was in. Assurion had to send me a charger along with the phone, otherwise I wouldn't be able to charge the phone. Well, I guess I could have used another micro usb charger that I have because I have a LOT. Don't think any of my others are rated at 2A output though. I have plenty of HTC chargers and I know they're only 1A. I'll have to check the charger that came with my 2013 N7 FHD. I would think that it's more than just 1A, but it might not be. Oh, speaking of tablets, it just hit me that my Asus Infinity wall charger is 2.1A, I believe. I'll check both of them and edit this post once I find out. Doesn't matter now since I have a new 2A Samsung wall charger, but just in case anyone was wondering what the output of those chargers are. Now I'm curious myself to see what they both are!

I used a APK extractor to extract Android terminal emulator and put it on my network share with my phone.

Then using es file explorer on my new ouya grabbed the Android terminal emulator apk off my network share and installed it.

I open the emulator on my ouya and gave superuser access then type "su" and enter key.

Then the command:

[Ouya Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nighttownvega:
sorry for the late reply but for anyone else coming across this thread

you type the command into terminal emulator that is running on your ouya

I keep a plain USB cord keyboard handy, i turn off the ouya, then unplug it from the back, plug in the keyboard, then fire everything back up.

when it's back on launch terminal emulator or install if you haven't and you should be able to use the keyboard you have plugged in to type the command into terminal emulator.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prohexa:
Hi all, please help me find my lost data!

The problem:

My google account is gone, with all my contacts, calendar, etc. And I hadn't synced them with google for ages! :crying:

The background:

A few days ago my (recently bought) Anker 2500mAh battery died, completely. The last I heard from the phone was the "Low Battery" sound, and when I checked later it is was completely dead. I tried to charge it via charger/USB but it refused to give any sign of life. Luckily I remembered reading about a similar issue here on xda about a year ago, where the solution was to kick-start the battery manually using a DC power supply. I charged the battery for a few minutes according to this method (using a DC power supply here in the office lab) and yay - the phone came alive again and could resume charging as normal via USB. Then I discovered that all my contacts and calendar appointments were gone!

Exact steps taken:

1. The battery died

2. Charged the battery manually

3. Inserted other SIM-card (from backup-phone)

4. Replaced battery and booted phone with new SIM inside

5. Pulled battery out, switched back to old SIM card

6. Booted, noted the battery stats seemed a bit wonky

7. Rebooted to recovery, wiped Battery-stats, rebooted again

8. *Everything seems alright... Hey, where are my contacts?!* :eek: :mad:

Phone info:

I'm running CM9.1 (June 22 nightly, 2012, hehe).

Is there a way to restore my old contacts and/or calendar or extract them from some local file? Or is it gone forever?

If someone says "nandroid backup" I will cry, because I deleted all my backups about a week ago for emergency space reasons! :(

All help appreciated!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baz77:
Yeah the inserted sim from other phone did it, not the battery. Nothing I know can bring them back, maybe inserting original sim, but I think that won't happen.

Syncs are Important.

You can try, contacts.google.com. Just incase the sync with different sim overwrote older sync with all contacts. Just navigate a bit till you find it in contacts.google.com. Small chance a sync did happen.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prohexa:
Thanks for the input, I also suspected that the new SIM was the culprit, but I'm still a bit baffled about it. Who came up with the idea of deleting tons of non-synced user data without a warning or anything? "The user changed the SIM (vacation abroad?) - he probably doesn't care about contacts or meetings anymore!" :silly:

Anyhow, thanks for the suggestion, I'll see what Ican find in contacts.google.com... (Original SIM was already inserted, but no luck)
