Criskelo is back from the future! Nice to see you again man :)

Installing the ROM at this very moment, will let you know if there are any issue's.

Thx:good:
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] joshphilips:
What about the bootloader ? Mk4 ??
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] criskelo:
I have tested

bootloader. MJ5 and MK4

No problems

Anyway would recommend MK4 Bootloader

:D
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Mashed_Potatoes:
Downloading :)

So it's pure MK4?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] criskelo:
almost all stock

Add launcher, Note 3 - 4x5 5x5

Then I will include in AROMA themes and battery

Also some other MODs

And separately I will put together a AROMA to NOTE 3
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Devinda:
I would like to flash this rom but could u tell me what u mean by u recommend MK4 bootloader ?

My Note to (GT-N7100) is running the stock rom (JB 4.1.2) and rooted, can't i just instal a custom recovery and flash this rom ?

what do i have to do with the bootloader ? Thank you
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] moliro:
hi i would like to try this rom, but first i have a question... im on bootloader dmg1, if i install this wifi will work or i will have to patch something via odin which is not possible for me at the moment since im using osx...
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] criskelo:
1 install Stock rom MK4 Sammobile.com

2 install ej Recovery Touch odin

3 then install Criskelorom

This would be the correct way to avoid problems
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] tomy159:
Criskelo you are back?? this is Great News thank you thank you.

Now Im happy.

there is many roms but Criskelo rom FOR ME IS THE BEST

PS: have this Rom app S-pen from Note 3 or will later?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] adinfsfocus:
Criskelo my wifi not work.

What to do?

Flash wifi patch from Dr.ketan?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] tomy159:
yap I have same problem wifi not work
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] julio_sp_br:

[Galaxy Note II Android Development] panosfx:
The correct way to flash your rom is to install official MK4 with knox?Did I miss something?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] shapk:
This custom rom has air command?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] betoNL:
Try Wifi patch Dr. Ketan first

Here some pointers:

This method proposed is a total fresh install , from scratch , and optional

You can try first flashing this rom from recovery and then if no wifi, flash Dr.Ketan's wifi fix as I posted above

MJ5 bootloader is also an option as also mentioned

But if you want MK4 bootloader per se, follow Criskelo's tip

For me to, everything is deleted, also my hard played Real Racing savegame data. I only have my titanium backup on external SD. Why was that necessary? It's only a small update with the same ROM base.

[Galaxy Note II Android Development] jarayn:
mmm ok.

Just to be clear you chose the option that says

ATTENTION!!! delete all your DATA(FullWipe erase all user data)

Then goes on to warn you at least 3 times .. with big red !!!!
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] aguadilu:
No man, a Full Wipe is a Factory Data Wipe as traditionally done in other roms' Aroma, like Omega. This was a napalm wipe and should have been warned in the text. Something like "you will loose your programs, backups, pictures"...

Now I've lost a year of memories. I prefer not to think about it.

Enviado desde mi GT-N7100 mediante Tapatalk
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] jarayn:
What are you saying no about?

You didnt choose that option?

If you chose that you got warned multiple times. Thats exactly what it says I just tried it.

ATTENTION!!! delete all your DATA(FullWipe erase all user data)

If you didnt choose that then you should be fine. Should be just a change of folder structure.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] betoNL:
I don't really get what you guys did.

I flashed v22 many times during testing and using it right now, always choosing option in Aroma "Flash Rom NO WIPE" and never lost any user data.

And even if you choose " Full WIPE" option in Aroma it doesn't erase contents in SD.

.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] jarayn:
I didnt do anything, mine is fine Im just trying to find out what his issue is.

I dont store anything on internal so I dont know if that is wiped or not.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] :
All the app data is saved on internal SD, DCIM also. You don't need to save by yourself, the system does this by itself.

I've also lost everything, if I had been warned i had made a backup of SD too, but normally a factory wipe does not touch your SD cards.

Now it's too late, but I've also lost everything, and the most annoying thing is the lost game data. Over a year playing and now gone in one second. Sorry but it's not the normal wipe procedure.

[Galaxy Note II Android Development] jarayn:
I having trouble with two aspects of this.

1. What did you think it would do when it said attention will wipe all user data? Over and over again with the popup warnings.

I cant think what other roms say but I have never seen one with so many warnings. (perhaps because they dont wipe all)

2. How have you not made any backups before installing a new rom? Didnt you do a nandroid? Or TiBu

[MENTION=465173]betoNL[/MENTION] i've been experiencing random reboots with V21 & with V20, i am thinking it's kernel related.. do you use the stock one or devil ?

- Cheers.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] heat57:
Hi, I tried it and it doesn't work. I made sure the Module was installed, rebooted, enabled it and rebooted again. Still a conversion takes place after only 1 character is inserted (smilie). Doesn't happen on any other ROM, Sotmax v14 or DN3 v3.1.1
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] betoNL:
Once again, I am telling you, I flashed v22 many times mostly NO WIPE and once tested wipe option in Aroma ( Install Rom FULL WIPE)

The contents in my internal SD are intact (DCIM, Games folders, GPS Maps , widget themes etc etc)

So your issue is not rom related, otherwise many of the hundreds of users (already almost 1000 downloads of the v22) would be reporting it as well...

Anyway, me, myself and I, cannot reproduce this issue ...

And there are many other factors that can cause data corruption which are not related with the rom ....among many other things ...

.

---------- Post added at 12:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:40 PM ----------

Sure Pal,

You mirrors are always treat..post them and we will add it to first post .... OBRIGADO .

About random reboots, I didn't have them on v21 and I don't have them on v22 with Both Stock and Devil2-1.8.5 kernels.

I recommend you move on to v22 no wipe, with Devil2-1.8.5 which have screen tweaks, sound tweaks (Voodoo) and more...as you already probably know

I did try Devil2-1.8.8, but something got corrupted after flash, so I restored a fresh Nandroid, re-flashed Criskelo v22 NO WIPE with stock kernel, then rebooted and then flashed Devil2-1.8.5 again from recovery

Very very smooth....

[Galaxy Note II Android Development] xTee:
With AROMA Full Wipe i lost all my internal sd data too. I will stop using this rom for this sh*t.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] aguadilu:
Of course no other ROMS (and I've been a compulsive flasher for three years) napalm erase your internal sd. It's the first time I see this. They also warn you about wiping your data (programs, etc), but I've NEVER seen something like this. And I had (years ago and coming from other devices) a titanium backup, which of course, has also been deleted.

[Galaxy Note II Android Development] betoNL:
Ok, Full wipe option will be removed from Aroma installer and a warning will be placed at first post..

From now on, for those who want to apply a clean install, they can aplly the data/factory reset from recovery first ...

Hello. First of all..... great rom :).

Everything works great, except one thing....from time to time, when i charge the phone, i can`t turn it on.

More precisely, the phone i on, but it won`t light up....i tryed the power button, the home button, nothing works.....i had to pull out the battery .

Anyone else with this problem, and maybe a soluttion ?

Thank you.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] smage85:
I have started playing around with it and first off I have to thank you for your huge effort.

I had to delete data even though I had criskelo's 4.1.2 which is perfectly fine as I have backups.

I went ahead with the Note 3 package.

In your opinion, is there a performance penalty (and if so, how huge in terms of RAM and sucking up other available resources) for using the note 3 features?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] jarayn:
wow ... no!

Certainly havent had that problem.

Though the charging animation doesnt work with phone off and it is really slow compared to phone on charging.

---------- Post added at 09:22 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:18 AM ----------

of course there is a penalty for running a whole bunch of extra programs all the time.

whether the penalty is worthwhile is up to you. Make a nandroid now then install the note 3 package and see what you think.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] smage85:
Well that's taken for granted. But then even with note 3 you can disable and get back your performance if you want :) My question was more in line with how Note 2 handles this stuff.

So far with stock kernel it's running quite smoothly. I read of some instabilities on devil kernel so decided to skip that for now.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] pumper1128:
Heavy battery drain

I have the same problem in V21 and V22

I experienced turn on wifi then sleep around 6 hours, the battery goes down from 7X% to 2X%

If i charged battery to 100% then turn on 3G data only, the battery only work for around 6 to 7 hours and I just receive a few phone call around 10 mins and whatsapp around 10 mesages.

(I flashed a pre-root stock rom before and turn on 3G data can work around 14+hours)

Any body can give me a help?

Or somethings get wrong?

I flash V21 with full wipe + flash MJ5 BL + flash all sharecast fix + superwolf mod

and

no full wipe flash V22 + superwolf mod

Then my theory about why I had an issue with being stuck in boot screen isn't right.

I was able to resolve the problem flashing mk4 stock with Odin and v22 on top of it.

All other stock roms with odin I tried would boot but one I'd flash v22 it'd freeze on Samsung logo.

Weird as hell.

Oh well.. Least it's working now. Still not sure why though hahahah

Voodoo sound tweaks are ported to Trickster app ( Scoobidoo port

You can download Trickster from Play Store

It's 100% stable and smooth with stock kernel.

When using Devil kernel, if you start playing with all kind of tweaks within Trickster Mod or Devil tool, you can expect stability issues..

error mounting efs

I think I managed to finally soft brick my device.

Made some xposed changes (on v22 Note 2 version with devil kernel 1.98 ), the device got into a boot loop.

Tried to reflash v22 but it didn't work.

Then I tried to to restore my old backup via recovery but it's giving an "error mounting efs" error.

Now I'm trying to restore from KIES and trigger emergency recovery but not sure if it's going to be of any help .

I know this thread is not about bricked devices but could appreciate a pointer as this is the first time I have encountered such an issue.

Edit: Sadly I'm an idiot and don't have efs backup

Edit 2: After KIES emergency recovery the device is still stuck in a loop. Now custom recovery is gone as well replaced by Samsung's. The error given is E: failed to mound /efs (invalid argument).

Edit 3: So now I'm on a stock probably with broken efs and no backup. Where do I start? :(
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Zionator:
Haha nicely done :p

Luckily for you i had the same problem when flashing the very first 4.3 rom for note 2 and then trying to go back to 4.1.2.

What ever i did didn't work at all.

1. You can download a stock Samsung rom and flash it via Odin. Will work in almost any case.

2. Use "Galaxy Note 2 Toolkit" which can be found here on XDA somewhere. It's gonna be where all the roms are but many pages back as its been abandoned by the dev a while ago and thread is closed but i think the download link is still there.

This is the solution i used.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] smage85:
Thank you for the tips, KIES has totally failed.

Sammobile website is screwed up due to hotfile. N7100XXDMG1_N7100ODDDMG1_N7100DDDMG1- Odexed - India was what I could find. Do you think flashing this via odin will fix the problem? Also I don't have efs backup but I hope that it's just unreachable and not gone :(
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Zionator:
Hehe stay far away from kies = ****.

I am uploading the toolkit and it will be done in about 5 to 10 mins from now.

Yes if you are from India then that will do fine flashed from Odin.

And there we go fire in the hole :laugh:

Galaxy Note 2 Toolkit
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] smage85:
I flashed it via odin successfully. However my device is still in an infinite boot loop :(

The device is not of Indian origin but I cannot find a TR one with the current state of hotfile so tried anyway :(

The current recovery still shows E:failed to mount /efs (Invalid argument).

Also tried to wiping data but it keeps giving the efs problem and device gets stuck in the loop

ANy other suggestions?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Zionator:
Is your device the international version N7100 ?

Mine is International N7100 from UK so i went and found the newest International N7100 UK and flashed it but i took out my extsdcard so theres no data from ext to interfere with the new rom.

Newsflash : Hotfile is closed down after Hollywood sued them for 80 Million $ :eek:

I have a stock rom file on my hard drive but i cant upload it to Dev-Host as the upload limit is 500 mb and the file is 1.05GB.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] smage85:
Yeah it's the international N7100 version, the turkish variant. As long as it's n7100 international version it should be fine I think?

I will try flashing without the extsd once again and hope that creates a difference and fixes efs :(
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Zionator:
I am uploading the rom i have on my harddive but i got 500kb upload cap so its gonna take an hour or two. I will link it here once its done.

The name of the rom is : BTU-N7100XXDME6-20130603102621 so its a ME6 which is a little bit old but it works to bring back from soft brink.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] smage85:
Thank you I will try with that rom once the upload is complete and maybe it will make a difference.

Tried install without sd card but I'm still in a boot loop :(

Still getting the red error message twice in the recovery. "E: failed to mount /efs (Invalid argument".

Been searching the forums for the past 3 hours in search of a solution to no avail.

Edit/Update:

By flashing the odin file at the link: http://forum.gsmhosting.com/vbb/f453/samsung-n7100-efs-repair-1724980/ I was able to fix the infinite boot cycle. However my IMEI is now corrupted and has number: 004999010640000/01 which is just fake.

I will go back to kies once again, since it knows my serial number and might be able to generate the correct efs files.

Besides that I have searched the forums but besides a magical usb cable, all I found was some pointers on saving a galaxy S2 by modifying the efs of the phone.

I'm open to pointers on how to fix this, and am really sorry for hijacking the ROM thread :(
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Zionator:
Sorry dude i gotta go to sleep now as i gotta get up in 3 hours. Link to website where i uploaded the file. Maybe you can search on the file name when its done or i can link it in the morning.

It's done 56 % now so it will awhile till its done.

Sorry i am falling asleep over the keyboard as its 3:30 am here.

Havent you been having this discussion for the last 2 pages?

[Galaxy Note II Android Development] betoNL:
I just woke up and still have to read the last 2 pages.

But I already read something about somebody flashing version 1.9.8 of kernel Devil2

I have been posting here and on Devil kernel thread about how good the combination Criskelo Rom + Devil2-1.9.7 kernel is.

However Devil developer came up with a 1.9.8 version because DN3 Rom users were complaining about lag issues and I don't feel like testing a version that was modified only to attend one specific Rom with issues that imo, were not kernel related...

I strongly suggest Criskelo Rom users to stick with version 1.9.7 of Devil kernel, which is tested by my and Criskelo and I posted the download link some pages ago.

.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Zionator:
Ok its done uploading and here the link.

This rom fixed my issue when i had it. It fixed both my IMEI and EFS.

After you flash this rom with odin you can flash a custom recovery and then Criskelo rom but if i was you i would make sure the internal sdcard is wiped and clean to avoid any complications with old data leftover from previous roms.

Also i have had some bad experiences with Devil's kernel in the past so my advise is stay with stock.
