Hey everyone ,I got myself a Note 2 last week,it's actually from UAE and as i've noticed the official UAE 4.3 update isn't available so going through the pages of this post i suppose i can download the official 4.3 Indian version and flash it via odin on my note 2 that is running 4.1.2( stock and non rooted),l had htc hd2 for 3 years and was comfortable rooting that phone ,i am a bit hesistant to root my note 2 within it's first week itself,been reading all the posts on how to root and such perhaps in time i'll be able to root my note 2,So please let me know if i'd be able to just flash 4.3 Indian version on top of my UAE note 2 running 4.1.2 .Thanks

works with philippine note2

I was able to push it to my note2 (philippines) without any problem. Did not xperience problem with its stability. :)
[Galaxy Note II General] singhpratik87:
so i guess i can flash the Indian version of 4.3 onto my UAE note since it's still on official 4.1.2 and non rooted,how's your experience so far with the release?any bugs? any battery drain?please let me know,thanks

Note 2 4.3 firmware fix

I tried to download the new update on my Note II, the official firmware to further fix the 4.3 which I received last week..

PDA:MKD / PHONE:MK1 / CSC:MK1

it obviously did not happen on phone - the common error, maximum roll outs done. So I tried Kies 3 and after completing to 100 % and the 'downloading' message on my phone Kies tells me it does not recognize my phone and need to remove battery re-insert and try again! it took 3 hours to reach 100 % and then it tells me this which is not sensible. Suggestions?

Many thanks!

Thanks alot for uploading this ROM, been waiting for the official update but meh...

The ROM is going smoothly so far, but it seems the stock video player won't work, as i always get "Unfortunately, Video has stopped".

any ideas on how to fix that?

No this will not wipe your data or anything else :)

but it would be best to flash the rom after cleaning the system as clean flashing a new rom always save you from future problems that may occur Such as battery drain and high ram usage :)

Language

There is a way to put more languages in this rom? i don't mind the english, but it's for my mother, so i want to put the Pt-Br (Brazil) in it....

Any thoughts? thanks
[Galaxy Note II General] Devinda:
Try installing this app from play store

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jp.co.c_lis.ccl.morelocale

Then check if the language you want is in the main page and if yes select the language and country if it's present in the main screen

IF NOT

Then click "custom locale" (in the top right screen)

it will open a new screen

then select the language you want from the big list and then the country

No need to select varient, just leave it empty as that's fine :)

Now Click set and your phne system language should be set to the language you selected :D

i tried it and it was awesome

This rom has almost all the languages we need, we just need an app to force the system to select it it seems :)

the image shows the language i selected "SINHALA" Country "Sri Lanka", :)

the screenshot is from this rom :)

Hit thanks if i helped you :)

[Galaxy Note II General] Devinda:

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] arunkrisna:
Hi:)

Viper's audio is one of the great mod for audio enhancement... I recently installed ics(6.1.1.b.1.100) on my xperia u.

As per instructed in vipers forum , i installed the audio mod,. after installing, v4a was not working ,so i converted v4a app to system app and gave

rw-r--r permission ... after re-installing the driver luckily the mod started working:laugh:

But while playing the song , when i increase the volume above 70% the viper audio stops working and sound awesomeness gone . If i restart the player again viper audio starts processing (but under 70% volume) .. :rolleyes:

plz Can any one help me ??? Is there any build.prop edit??:confused:

Thank you
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Xperia_Fans:
Try uninstall the app first

1) Move it to system/app with rw-r-r(644) permission and reboot

2) Install the require driver and reboot

3) Choose the music effect in Settings/Sound as Viper 4 Android

4) Now trying to enable the v4a and playing the songs you like :) enjoy!

Tell me if this work!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] arunkrisna:
Thanks for the reply:good:

No, still i am facing the same problem:eek:

May be,, is there any thing to edit in "audio_effects.conf"????
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Xperia_Fans:
Nope it doesn't needed, cause I'm using that audio mod also and it work perfectly :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] arunkrisna:
:( Then what else i can do with it?? Coz, if its driver problem , then it shouldn't be working right??

But its working and stops processing only after increasing volume,, If i am not wrong , changes should be done with some library functions ???

Without that mode ,i can't enjoy listening songs:D

Thank you
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Xperia_Fans:
Do you have other sound mod or apps u install to increase the volume of your phone?Or that just the Extra louds one in the settings of Viper apps?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] arunkrisna:
I am using sony's default player .. i don't have any third party application to enhance the sound ..

viper>phone speaker > extra loud - its disabled
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Xperia_Fans:
if you enable it with just sight effect?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] arunkrisna:
If i enable it, the volume get boosted up(external speaker),,,, the audio mod will be processing if i increase it to max volume..

That's fine but the problem is only with under headset option!!!???

Dis yu made a nandroid backup?, or an OFS backup?, couse the probems is the knox app and if yu¿ou have your backup you always can do a restore, the problem is the bootloader. or you can reflash the mk4 rom.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tzelves:
i did not make a back up because i did not know that after update i would have problem with downgrade.this was a big mistake probably from me. after update i rooted my phone and now i can not downgrade to any other firmware except mk4. i just want to go back to mj5 or mi6 or anything else. i think dr ketan told something like this but only for mj5. have you got any other idea for mk4 my friend???because im ready to throw my phone from window..:(:(:(:(..

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Newbyallthetime:
Do you have in download mode warranty void line and if so is it 0 or 1?

I think if you have warranty void line in download mode and it is 0/0 you should wait for a work arround or else you'll loose your warranty even if you flash an official rom (4.1.2 foe exemple) with odin because it will trigger your knox warranty counter!

Don't throw it out the window...it's a good phone :)

As i know if you flash to a stock rom early to the last version you can lost your IMEI and the problem here is precicely the bootloader and NFS directory, allways is necesary made a nandroid backup, As i read the only option is flash the Stock rom and then try recover the phone and still in MK4 rom, Sorry i don´t see anoter option.

I have a Galaxy S4 that's LOKI exploited ruining Pac man Rom. I usually always end up going AOSP.

That said should I even bother with AT&Ts Note 3? Or is there any hope the there being a unlock?

I'm even considering buying the AT&T version to sell on to get the international one.

What do you all think? My reasoning for this is pearly for the screen size. I moved to the S4 after the Note 2 because having that big of a screen and only be 720p was stupid. Also I like the IR blaster, makes visits to sports bars interesting.

Anyways thanks for any info.

[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] nerys71:
some of them are quite nice. I really like the bamboo cases. as someone noted though one drop and they shatter (although in their sacrifice they leave your phone unscathed)

a bit of warning though. quality varies IMMENSELY from maker to maker and its almost impossible to tell them apart so when you find one you like order a couple more.

I will be getting the compass one for my note 3 when I order. I prefer the "darker" woods over the lighter woods.

I wish someone would make some wood cases but not of bamboo.

Can anyone explain to me what the deal is with auto awesome movies and our G2's ?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SoCGHOST:
Auto Awesome Movies are only available on select devices running 4.3 or higher and have the latest G+ app. In other words it only really works for like 5 total phones, ours not one of them.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goldlocke:
Sorry for digging up that old thread.

But I tried to get this feature working on CM11 (4.4.2), but the Google Photos app does not even enable auto awesome movies (or video editing per se) now.

So the Google Photos app obviously does not only check the Android version, but also checks on a device level - which is sad. I love that feature on my Nexus devices. Would love to use the raw power of the Snapdragon800 as well though! :D

Is there some mod to the photos app to make it think it's on a Nexus5?

Google photos app takes your photos and videos and automatically edits them with their own photo editing software.

That is true. But you may also edit it yourself within Google Photos on select devices. :)

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goldlocke:
reporting back...a little late, I know. I had to test some lines to make sure.

Tested OK on CM11 based ROMs we can trick Google+ Photos to believe the G2 is a Nexus5:

<Step 1> in system/build.prop

change the line 28 to

ro.product.device=hammerhead

View attachment 2708064

<Step 2> in settings > Apps > delete all data of the Goggle+ app

<Step 3> restart G+ Photos app; You should now have to new Clapperboard symbol together with the ability to edit your auto awesome clip yourself. Enjoy! :D

I prefer to edit the build.prop on my desktop computer before flashing a new ROM. You can do it also on the fly with special tools on the G2. But I advise to do it on bigger screens not in the live running ROM.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hreidmar:
