Hi dr ketan,

[MENTION=3931450]dr.ketan[/MENTION], flashed this ROM but sadly got the error that I have told you. So i revert back to an old ROM... :(
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] dr.ketan:
You can do one thing

Copy your EFS folder when you have correct IMEI (Assuming you have EFS backup, if not must do it now)

and place safely

Update ROM - As you will lose IMEI

remove contents of EFS folder and replace with one you have copied and change permission (note all permission before deleteing)

can i flash 4.1.2 modem to this leak version? Particularly DXDMF1? As I see in the screenshot, the modem starts at XX and modems like that is bad here in my country.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] bizum1:
please help :)

i have problem with leak 4.3 - all roms, including your.

After flash everything works. But when i reboot it just freezes on "galaxy note II" logo. I have to do full format to get it to work after that
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] dr.ketan:
It happens after installing something or just after rebooting?

try removing ext SD card

Also after format reboot 3-4 times to check if error occurs
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] bizum1:
it happens after first reboot. I try after flashing, after setting up phone. Always freezes. Tryed with no sim and no exsd.

Cant reboot after format because it makes internal sd clean ;) i have to format data and install rom again to start up the phone...

[Galaxy Note II Android Development] bizum1:
where can i find PIT for 4.3 from you? :)
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] dr.ketan:
pit is same for all version
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] red_hanks:
got it..will try it now..but do you have any idea what's causing this? btw this ROM works with Mobile Odin Pro with no issues...
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] kdogguk:
Just a thought, I have my EFS backups from as far back as 4.1.1..... Can I flash an older modem (say DK7) and copy the older EFS file to the phone? or will this not work? I ask because i got amazing speeds from DK7 modem and not had anything as good since. And after updating to DMG1 i was unable to go back.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] dr.ketan:
What option did you selected in Mob Odin?

There shouldn't be difference

Old modem won't work on newer ROM
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] angelonline:
thanks dr.

but could you please tell what the difference between your rom and the first leak rom ? is that just the root or there's something else ??

can i download the note 3 app and mods for these rom or not ??

thanks again
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] dr.ketan:
It's same as available in leak download thread + root +busybox without raising counter.

If you can mod it's nice.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] angelonline:
dr. please another question

do you advice me to get rid of knox or not ?? is there any issue when it disable it ?

thanks
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] dr.ketan:
I think No. I feel earlier it causing issue in surfing some secure sites but issue was not to others so may be it was due to other reason in my case.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] angelonline:
sorry i didn't understand , forgive me for that

so i disable the knox or not ??
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] dr.ketan:
you can disable, so far no adverse effect reported.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] angelonline:
big thanks to you Dr :)
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] danieloo:
thank you

Thank you, Dr ketan. I've manage to install & running 4.3 on my international N7100.

Only some minor glitch on Samsung Keyboard which can't get gestures to work.

Good work bro. Thanks.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] pakure:
Easiest way to disable knox is to freeze it in titanium back up. ..

Battery is definitely better than roms before

Since this is 4.3 and has trim inside. . This is very smooth and fast

Funny thing with the keyboard. .swipe feature keeps not working occasionally and automatically works normally

Install the X posed framework apk and wanam module... It's just great

Flash the note 3 launcher with magazine...( zip file in the apps and theme section) ... its smooth. ..magazine only force closes on the first time you use it. . The on it works without issues
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Ram121:
This note 3 launcher with magazine is capable of detecting events like pen removal or not

EFS Backup

GN2 was stock 4.1.2 not rooted,

Could not do EFS backup.

Flash it with your 4.3 prerooted.

Up to now stable fast and I did not discover any pb. Thank you.

Want to do a EFS backup with PC EFS_backup pgm from XDA.

Activate debugging mode in GN2

Driver in PC are ok as Kies3 works.

Open admin cmd on PC, start Program EFS_backup.bat, connect GN2 to USB port,

pgm says "STARTING" then "WAITING FOR DEVICE" and hung here, nothing happens.

What am I doing wrong?

Still working on some stuff.

Planning to make Deodexed light ROM prerooted, odin flashable including mods. May be non wipe. Still not decided whether to post full above said featured ROM or to make just Aroma for Mods.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Ram121:
[MENTION=3931450]dr.ketan[/MENTION] please make just Aroma mods as downloading full rom will not be required
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] dr.ketan:

Will think something so everyone can have according their choice

Guys what are the bugs of this leaked rom?

How can I get transparent status bar on it?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] dr.ketan:
I am planning for customizable option by user themselves

Don't wanted to push everything in it neither want to pull myself. Let user to decide what they want to add or remove. Don't know when I will finish it. Right now it's all just in my mind, didn't even started working on it.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] dr.ketan:
Status Update :

So Ok guys first task finished

Made Deodexed,Zip aligned, Prerooted, Non Wipe and flashed successfully

Mods planned to include (as AddOn- user selectable)

-Call recording

-Multiwindow

-2G Toglle

-Transparent status bar on homescreen

-CSC Features (user choice selectable)

-Tweaks (user choice selectable)

-Bloat And Knox Remover (user choice selectable)

-EFS backup (optional)

Question is now to make aroma, it's always time consuming. Let's see tomorrow is sunday so hopefully get time to finish.

But right now exhausted and giving up for today.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] albsat:
Dr. Ketan

Please don't lose energy at the end. I think your coming rom would be the most fully features rom.

Thanks for your work
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] dzontra11:
This prerooted rom works much better for me then leak. .don't know how but works great and smooth. Tnx doc.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] dr.ketan:
No no I said just gave up for today as there was hectic schedule in hospital. Will start again tomorrow with fresh mind.

That's good but really I didn't tweak at all. All credit to Samsung. :)
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] dzontra11:
That's why I ask..strange.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] devil_slayer:
dr.. i want to know in real life is there a difference between deodex and odex ???

i read alot about it so i know odex is better for speed ... but deodex with tweaks .... this i don't know which would be better ...

and most of your mods are odex friendly so is there any benefit of deodexing a rom ??
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] dr.ketan:
Benefit of deodexed is only as you guessed, easy to mod.

Any mod having system app should work on both but incase odexed rom you need to remove odex file

Main difference is mod with framework file. Most of modes available is for deodexed only . hardly I have seen any framework mod for odexed except me and legends simplistic framework.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] dr.ketan:
Update for next ROM

Major task finished - ROM packed to Aroma

tested to flash on 4.3 as well on non rooted MG1

Both the time wipe not needed

No root issue

Now just 'to do' is

-To check few more time in different condition

-Apply option for Mods/CSC/Tweak/EFS/Debloater etc

-This ROM will have multitool included so in case you need to flash other kernel/recovery (if available) you can do with it. This ROm doesn't flash without your selection to flash ROM so you can use for other task without flashing ROM too.

What exactly you did?

Have you complete erase efs folder on new ROM and copied back older one?

Another thing you can try is move back to older version complete stock and use kies - tool - firmware upgrade utility (something like that) This will erase all data so make backup first.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] zephyrus17:

Some times it don't changes values after editing. Confirm by opening one more time and check your modified values.

Also check file permission.

And reboot after changes to take effect.
