[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GeneralBobo:
Hey Guys,

I am trying to root my phone, and installing clockwork mod, but it doesnt seem to work for me?

I am on build number: XXXDMG1 And have rooted the phone i think... :) But cant seem to install a new rom... When i download a root-tester from Play, it says: Congratulations, your phone is rooted. But CWM wont load when i try the volume up + home + restart button... Its the standart screens that comes up?

So does anyone know of a way to install the CWM, or some other way to get around this problem? :) My end goal is to flash a new custom rom to my phone... :)

Thanks in advance..

Sincerely,

Bobo
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bearusa:
You need to install cwm or twrp through odin.. your device may be rooted but unless you install the recovery you will just get the standard android recovery.. all you need to know is here in these forums.. you will need to read and understand what your about todo to your device cause no one but yourself is responsible if you knacker your phone..

Edit: you also need to make sure you know your device model number..

n7100 0r n7105.

GT N7105 with XDA Premium......that is all......
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GeneralBobo:
Hey Bear,

I live in Denmark, so im 100% sure that my phone is the N7000 :)

Could you perhaps point me in the right directions with regards as to how to install CWM with odin? - Pretty please? :)

Sincerely,

Bobo
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bearusa:
You will need to know for definite your model number.. you can do this by going through the menu to ABOUT DEVICE.. or see it when you turn your phone on ie mine says

GT-N7105 Or just look under the battery. . You then need to go to your device specific forum here on xda and follow the tutorials. . Make sure you flash the correct package to your device or you could end up with a very expensive paper weight..

GT N7105 with XDA Premium......that is all......
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GeneralBobo:
Hey Bear,

The very expensive paper weight is exactly what I am trying to avoid :D

My phone is this: GT-N7100 Android 4.1.2 version XXDMG1

I have read and tried to root my phone, and I am pretty sure that it worked. But now I think I need CWM, and can't seem to find one that suits my version of Android? :)

Sincerely,

Bobo
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bearusa:
You need to go in.. note 2 n7100 original android development. . Its all in there..

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GeneralBobo:
I am already in there? - this is the right place that I am asking my question right?

I have rom manager installed on my phone, and I seem to have root access...

-So would it be possible to install a new rom from the rom manager perhaps?

Sincerely,

Bobo

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gears177:
its unfortunate that my first post in this forum is due to my stupidity in bricking my galaxy s3. I accidentally flashed the international omega ROM to my sprint s3 i thought i had double checked it but guess not. Ive heard that there is no way of unbricking a galaxy s3 unless you use a jtag or send it in.

does not respond or power on

no recovery or download mode

no signs of life except when plugged into a computer you hear the beep noise

i recently had the galaxy nexus and was able to recover it from a hard brick by using a command line im not sure if anything like that exist for the s3 ive only had it for a couple days now.

some more info i was running paranoid android rooted 4.3.2 the newest beta release 3.99 i think i acquired it from goo manager. i accuired I9300_Omega_v11_AOKP_Android_4.3.1_107B1578FFF0079E5FD69A1258D39CF2.zip and tried flashing it leaving my phone unbootable :/ any help is appreciated im not a complete nub when coming to this but no expert i have a jig made for the samsung galaxy nexus but didnt work on the s3 thanks again
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JustArchi:
If anything can resurrect it, only unbrick jig, or service centre. You won't do anything else if bootloader is dead.

Personally I think that even unbrick jig won't boot it, as bootloader is definitely overwritten with other one and you have a brick.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gears177:
this is what i thought i read a thread that said you can copy the bootloader from another s3 and flash it to your device or use ubuntu to flash a img file to a sdcard and try to get into download mode from a dump but i havnt tried either of them
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JustArchi:
Yes, if you manage to write a new bootloader to a memory it should work. But for doing so you need to contact a repair centre, as usb jig probably won't boot it either.

Unless you're expert and you manage to do so manualy.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gears177:
im going to try and dd a new image to a sdcard and go from there ill update this if anything comes from it after i get a live linux state
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JustArchi:
You just need a bootloader, if I remember correctly it's /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 or 0p2.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gears177:
alright thanks for that information i just got ubuntu 12.04 up and running
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gears177:

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] mehboobkhan:
hi all,this is my first question on this site.This site is incredible for the wealth of info put forward by its member,credit to all you guys.i have flashed with a couple of the roms on my universal mainly tmobile and o2 and imate,but i desperately want to try the orange rom,does anyone know where i can download this from.thank you in advance.also praise due to buzz,what a techie,gr8 stuff.THANX
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] jab1a:
thats brilliant, i wouldn't have the guts to do that, just a few questions

1.Which ROM have you found the best out of the box? (from the 1st turn on)(added applications etc)

2.say you are on O2, were you able to still make calls/txt/mms on the other roms, (changing the settings etc maybe)

I have an Orange M5000 that im using as a bluetooth modem right now to use on the internet though GPRS (not in a 3G area)(only because u get 1gb allownce for the first 3months!), I would like to help you out with my ROM but i wouldnt even know where to start
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] mehboobkhan:
THANX FOR YOU REPLY.I WOULDNT ASK YOU TO DO ANYTHING YET,i have done a lot on both the magician that i have and the universal.i have read a lot of discussion on these topics on this website.in my experience,if you are on a contract then yes you are dead right with what you say.at the moment on my device i have about 30 programs on it,it runs suitably fast enough for me.i have unlocked and unhidded the extrom and deleted it.i have an o2 exec running bits of tmobile and a bit of o2,because i have an tmobile sim.the unit is superb despite the neg comments on it,i have had masses of pdas and this is the coolest.currently i have xda exec,mda compact,fujitsu loox720(TOP CLASS PDA VERY DIFFICULT TO BEAT),TUNGSTEN T3,NOKIA9210,SHARP SL860.I would read more on here though because you can increase the confidence level and the level of knowledge u have.the way to do it is to unlock the extrom then soft reset,then unhide it then soft reset have u can see whats on your extended rom.i have an extra 10 meg now i am waiting for buzz god to find out how to delete the partition.the orange has the best today screen interface hence why i want to try it.the files can be copied onto a pc then zipped and posted.only try it though once you are comfortable.flashing roms onto the pda is far more gods will,wouldnt recommend that unless you are totally confident.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] mehboobkhan:
yes you can change the settings although i am happy with the config at the moment,easier just to install the extrom bits :shock:
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] barlerer:
Hi there, I have a question to ask. When I bought the galaxy S3 I received 50GB to my dropbox account. there is approximately half a year until this bonuses expires. what happens if I buy a note 3 now? will the 2 years get extended? will they not?
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jaythenut:
no they wont what i done was signed up with new email so i still got the 50gb :p
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leezardmik:
jaythenut is correct, they wont stack promotions, you can either sign up for a new DB account to get the 50 GB, or you can give it to someone else (by letting them log into their dropbox account on your device)

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nawakee:
First off I already read everythreads with the keywords : "Fake imei" "corrupted efs" "0049" "00499901064000" "generic imei" "Imei problem" etc ....

I tried theses methods : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=17587351

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iY9cDkj4CCw

delete nv_data.bin and nv_data.bin.md5 and reboot

I also tried to use another ROM but nothing is actually working.

Full story :

July 2012 I buy a SGSII from a woman I just met (yeah stupid but it was only 200€ so ..) it works like a week and then the network problem, it seems that this bi... had a anti-theft insurance and reported the phone as stolen (she gave me all the documents) so they blacklisted the IMEI and the phone was unusable. I then rooted the phone, and deleted nv_data.bin and nv_data.bin.md5 wich worked because i had connectivity, i used the phone for like 2 months and then the problem showed up again, blacklisted (i think) so i managed to make it work again by installing a new ROM and then doing the delete it worked again for several months. And now 2 days ago my IMEI got blacklisted (or some****) again. Tried deleting > nada, tried using a new rom (Cyanogenmod 10.1.2) and then delete > nada, doing the 2 methods listed above > nada. I don't really know what I can do, i just wasted 200€ and now my IMEI is 00499901064000.

I really need your help.

PS : As said before I make this thread because everytime the Imei problem is related to a ROM fail or corrupted EFS files. But my problem is that even if i fixe the problem it will be back in a few months and it will be harder to solve.

PS 2 : Excuse me for misspellings, and if it's not in the right place.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theunderling:
I see your problem, but that link is related to get your imei back.If you get yours back then it is blacklisted....lol.The only way is to keep using the "temp" one or contact the company that blacklisted it and see if they can help.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nawakee:
Yeah I know that but i was thinking, if I get back the old one, the original one,maybe i can delete theses two files, and make it work again, like going back to the first time i solved this problem.

Already contacted them they said they can't do anything.

And my actual IMEI is a 0049 so I can't connect to the network.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
There's nothing you can do about it if the carrier won't unblacklist it. That's pretty much the end of the discussion. Chalk it up as experience.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nawakee:
OMG OMG OMG

I just found my first save of my EFS files.

I replaced the actual EFS folder with my very first one and it worked, got my first IMEI back, and i don't know how but it's not blacklisted anymore

Thanks anyway guys :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] kminatta:
I just reinstalled my ROM (Skynote), and there is no sound for the ink effect on the lockscreen. Is there a setting I missed? If not, where is it located so I can see if the file is missing. Thanks.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hutjeflut:
As there seems to be no memo pad 10 smart i ask it here as they are pretty simmilar anyway.

So i have 1 serious issue with this tablet and thats its battery life which lasts 4 hours with 2D games and less with 3d games and 5 hours with browsing.

Now i know 2 ways to fix this underclocking and lowering the brightness.

First thing brightness: i use my tablet mainly all night and the brightness is atleast 30% to bright at night at lowest settings so this could easely give me half an hour more use time.

Sadly i have no clue if its even remotely possible to lower it beyond stock rom lowest settings so if anyone has found a solution to this i would apriciate it verry much.

Secondly i would like to underclock my cpu to 640 mhz as thats more then fast enough on a quad core for browsing and 2D games.

However i tried about every tool and sadly it doesnt seem to work.

It wil let me set the Mhz lower but the tablet will ignore this settings and just use the asus power management settings of 1.1 Ghz.

I already tried several governors and all seem to have the same issue it prefers asus settings over Setcpu and so on.

So if anyone know how to fix this i would also be verry thankfull.

To clarify im running Stock 4.2.1 Android Rooted with Motochopper.

Thanks in advance.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sbdags:
You need to be unlocked with a custom kernel for under clocking. You can edit brightnesss profiles yourself as root. Look in /system/etc/config/brightness.

use a good text editor that won't destroy XML please.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hutjeflut:
Is that custom kernel need just for this asus device? my phone can be underclocked just fine stock and also has a tegra 3 chip.

And editing files is a little over my head hehe so i guess ill have to live with it and hope asus sixes it in a update.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sbdags:
Asus lock the device so no kernel tweaks can be made. I'm not sure how other tegra 3 devices work, but you won't be able to overclock or overclock without unlocking and editing the Asus kernel first.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hutjeflut:
Ok thanks for the info and thats just a shame...

My lg 4x hd runs on 2 disabled cores and the remaining 2 run on 640 mhz and i can ru everything even shadowgun hehe so there really is no need for this power drain.

It puzzels me why if you let them these apps will run on 1.2 ghz while they clearly do not need it at all.

Wouldnt it be sweet if apps only used what they needed.

i have had my s4 for a while and originally had revolt on it, it was good but had a lot of small bugs that annoyed me. now im running liquidsmooth and its been my driver for a long time. its starting to get buggy on me and im bored of it. i have been away for some time so help me figure out what i want to do now please!

do i need to update MDL to MD9?

im running TWRP recovery, any significant reason to switch to CWM or Philz?

Is there any inverted gapps available?

is there any themed swype available?

im thinking of going with PAC rom as it seems it has the most of everything in one. any feedback or bad experiences with this rom?

if i go with pac to you recommend switching kernels? like chronic kernel or anything? or is stock on there good?

do any roms have the active notification screen like the moto x yet?

do any ASOP roms have a working IR blaster so i can use a tv remote?

also for myboy free (GBA emu) if i back it up with TB will it also save the game saves? game saves are not in the app but through the actual game.

SORRY FOR ALL THE QUESTIONS!!! THANKS

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fergdizzle9090:
makes sense. thanks
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Williamharv:
Hi.

In terms of the recovery method, it's all a matter of preferance really. I'm personally using PhilZ CWM currently and have never had the need to switch. The only difference I can recall is that CWM has touch capabilities whereas TWRP has the ability to queue zips.

In my experience with PACman ROM, while I can't speak for everyone, it seemed to have a few problems such as reboots and bugs like autobrightness freezing the phone for a little bit. I'm now on paranoidandroid, and it appears to be much more stable than PACman. Furthermore, cyanogenmod also seems to be pretty stable (assuming you're sticking to the AOSP ROMS).

Again, with the choice of kernels, it's all a matter of preference. Each one is different and there is no one kernel that is best for everyone. So I recommend trying different ones and reading up on which each offers. Be careful that not all kernels are supported for each ROM.

I'm not entirely sure what you mean by active notification screens, but paranoidandroid and PACman have something called halo which makes notifications similar to Facebook chat heads, where notifications can be opened up in smaller sized windows.

As for the GBA emulator, I just restored one using titanium backup so I'll check for you when I get home, better not have been lost was halfway through pokemon firered!

Edit: GBA emulator save was backed up by titanium, just make sure you backup both app plus data

Recently I am experience and incredible fact.

The green button to start a call NOW works as CALENDAR shortcut button (yes like the top right button)

The red button to END a call NOW works as CONTACT shortcut button (yes like the top LEFT button)

The 2 Contact and Calendar button (top left and right) DO work correctly.

I supposed some recently installed applications made this mess. Therefore I tried

- soft reset: no way

- hard reset: no way

- I PUT MDA 3 in BootLoader mode and I REINSTALLED MY rom 1.42 WWE

Now what happened is that for 2 days OK, the GREEN and RED button DID work correctly to start and end CALLS.

After 2 days, the strange phenomena appeared again!

Please note that I HAVE NOT INSTALLED ANY ADDITIONAL SOFTWARE!

I am very puzzled.

Please help

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cggorman:
If battery life is your main concern, there is no reason to hesitate. G2 nearly doubles the One. Additionally, the battery on the G2 is easily serviceable if the need arises in a year or two to replace it. The construction of the One is such that service is extremely difficult.

Couldn't agree more. The battery life on this phone is superb! Coming from a hog like the GNex, I had to actively break my habit of constantly plugging in the phone throughout the day at work, in the car, when I got home, etc. It's like I have a device from the future or something :)
