Guys Need Help..!!

I am using Dn4 V2 with Mod V4.

I flashed some themes given in OP,but neither any of them are working nor m i able to open air command.Pressing the button on the S-Pen but it is not appearing on the screen although Air Command is enabled in Settings->SPen.What can i do?Plz help..!!
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] 54NJ41:
try to flashing DN4_Menu fix.zip from http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=57458724&postcount=2

or manually push the framework-res.apk from DN4 to /system/framework/
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] sanchit9282:
I flashed the Dn4_Menu fix but its of no use.

I am still not able to open air command.

After detaching the pen,the notification is appearing,m using the pen to move from 1 homescreen to another,i can draw anything anywhere using it,air veiw is also working perfectly,its just the air command that is not opening.

What should i do now?
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] sibinn:
on your downloaded rom find framework-res.apk

1.Download(Buy) Root Explorer. Go to your saved copy of framework-res.apk

2.Copy it and go to /system/framework

3.Mount as R/W

4.Paste the apk. If it asks that file already exists, overwrite it.

5.SET PERMISSIONS

6.Long click on framework-res.apk and click on permissions

7.You will see three columns

Read Write Execute

8.You have to set them in the following way

x means you have to tick it

blank means uncheck

Read Write Execute

.....x........x.................

.....x...........................

.....x...........................

Click OK

You will see it as rw-r--r--

Reboot

Do it over again if nothing happens

Enjoy
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] 54NJ41:
you said this happened after you flashed the theme. when you flash the theme it will only edits the framework-res.apk

so you can follow the post above

by [MENTION=1771792]sibinn[/MENTION] and it should work.

but i saw some other post from you saying you have flashed the rom completely and still the air command not working. it cant be. then their is something wrong with your spen or spen button.

and thanks for your support [MENTION=1771792]sibinn[/MENTION]
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] sanchit9282:
See what's actually hapenning..!!

What happened is:

I flashed a theme of air command,cleared cache and dalvik cache and rebooted but when i tried to open air command it was not opening.

I checked the settings and evrything was enabled.Due to some more problems,i reflashed (dirty) the entire rom,and tyried to open air command,but still it was not opening although i enabled evrything in the setings.I flashed the mod v4 then but still the error was same.

I then identified that air command is not working on my phn.

Not only that,neither my menu key(for recent apps) nor home button is working.Also,while increasing or decreasing the volume of the phn,i am able to increase or decrease the sound but the volume bar is not displaying.

I am unable to understand what has happened suddenly.

Also before flashing v2,my spend and air command was working perfectly,but since i flashed v2(around 5-6 days back)it is not working.

Now plz tl me what should i do??
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] 54NJ41:
If you are on v2 then flash mod v5 and check it's working as my knowledge mod v4 is perfect for v1 only for v2 mod v5

Also read this post maybe it will help

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blomberg:
I am almost ready to perform my first custom ROM installation.

I am only travelling with a Mac so I can't use Windows software.

Is there a way to backup my/EFS directly from the phone?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mezo91:
You need a custom recovery. How will you flash a custom rom w/o custom recovery?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keithross39:
Download HC ktool from the market, create your efs backup with it and use a root explorer to copy it to an external removable micro SD card......

Edit.......you need to be rooted in order to use HC ktool.......

This might be my S2, or it might be my W...but it's definitely CM
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blomberg:
For rooting I will use Framaroot.

For installing CWM I believe that you can install it via ROM Manager, or you can install the ROM directly via Mobile Odin.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keithross39:
OK....first....

Why look elsewhere for rooting methods? Everything you need is right here on XDA.

Second.....NEVER use ROM manager on an S2.....it breaks things.

Third....mobile Odin can only be used on rooted devices....primarily for flashing stock firmwares.

What version of android is on your S2....GB, ICS or JB?

This might be my S2, or it might be my W...but it's definitely CM
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blomberg:
Yes, I found Framaroot here and am planning to use it for the rooting purposes.

Thanks, good to know. So I will need to install CWM manually I guess. Somehow.

What is it that Mobile Odin does, is it an actual reovery ROM itself or does it install CWM which in turn installs the ROM?

But I can use Mobile Odin to install a custom ROM I think?

I am 4.1.2 JB
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keithross39:
Mobile Odin is a phone based version of PC Odin.....it is designed to flash back to stock from a rooted modified phone without the need to hook the phone to a PC....

You're on 4.1.2.....

Search for the PhilZ thread.......

With the downloads contained, you can root and flash CWM via the stock recovery in one flash.....don't get much easier than that.......

This might be my S2, or it might be my W...but it's definitely CM
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blomberg:
I can root it and flash it in one step? I've found like 50 guides but none of them as simple as you're suggesting.

There are so many ways to do each individual step.

I reckon the steps after that would be to install my custom ROM via CWM via SD card. Clear/Wipe cache and install the custom ROM again?

Edit: How can I backup EFS before using the technique you mentioned to root/flash CWM in one go, if my device is not yet rooted?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keithross39:
As I said........easy.....

1) flash PhilZ via stock recovery to root and flash CWM

2) At this stage your phone will still boot normally and allow you to download HC ktool in order to make your EFS backup. It might be an idea to make a full backup (nandroid backup) of your current setup using CWM too....

3) use CWM to flash the ROM (and it's associated gapps package) of your choice.

4) use CWM to perform the cache, dalvik and data wipes.

5) reboot, perform initial setup download user apps.......

Job done.......

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cubflyer:
You could also juse Siyah Kernel, a good alternative to philz:good:
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keithross39:
Except that it can't be flashed via the stock recovery.....it has to be flashed via Odin......

This might be my S2, or it might be my W...but it's definitely CM
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blomberg:
In which way does a Kernel replace a rooter/bootloader flasher, are these not different things?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blomberg:
I very much appreciate your help Keith. I've been on numerous forum but never got this good feedback.

I searched the PhilZ thread and got so many results. My model is i9100 of the Galaxy S2, I guess the methods you have been describing works for this model?

I need to backup program data and EFS before I dare start playing around.

How can I backup EFS before using the technique you mentioned to root/flash CWM in one go, if my device is not yet rooted?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
You can't. And you don't need to unless your phone is rooted, because if your phone is rooted nothing you can do to the phone is capable of borking the EFS/IMEI.

Edit - Also, I'm detecting a lack of knowledge of 'the basics' in the threads you've posted recently; I strongly suggest you read all the guides/tutorials stickied in the thread near the top of the General section before you do anything to your phone. A lack of knowledge exponentially increases the risk of you permanently breaking your phone depending on how little knowledge you have when you attempt to 'do stuff' to the phone.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] D-Construct:
For backing up the efs you'll need to flash a recovery first (like Philz as already suggested).

But anyway, problems with the efs won't be caused by just rooting so you can go ahead and root first and then use KTool.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blomberg:
* * *

Thank you. As I want to perform all the necessary steps directly on my phone, I am now thinking of doing the following.

Installing Framaroot (APK) and rooting my Samsung Galaxy S2 i9100 (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2130276)

Installing KTool and backing up EFS to external SD-card

Installing Titanium Backup (Root version) to backup AppData

Alt 1.) Downloading Mobile Odin to OS. Flashing ROM + GApps via this. But this keeps my stock recovery? (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1347899)

Alt 2.) Downloading PhilZ Touch Recovery 3.0 for Galaxy S2 i9100 which flashes + re-roots for me (?). Not sure if it's the right version as the post is old? (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1840223)

Alt 3.) Flashing CWM via Mobile Odin, and then in turn boot to recovery (now CWM) and flashing ROM + Gapps via CWM. This should update my recovery as well as my ROM?

After flashing ROM, entering recovery to Wipe Cache, Dalvik and Data

Flash ROM again as previous step supposedly deletes the ROM?

Boot ROM, Configure, Install Apps and restore App Data

Does the above look correct?

Is the version of PhilZ the correct one? It appears to be a 'temporary recovery' rather than a permanent, which might be what I am after if I want to flash the current version of CWM for Galaxy S2 from www.clockwerkmod.com/rommanager
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keithross39:
Follow the instructions I gave in this post....

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=48583106

and you will have a rooted phone running a custom ROM. No need to reflash the ROM after the wipes. Wiping cache, dalvik and data will NOT erase the ROM, all it'll do is erase any personal settings and downloaded apps.

Mobile Odin can't be used to flash custom ROMs, I think it can be used to flash CWM.... but only if you can find a compatible version in a .tar format.

PhilZ is still your best bet.....you will root your phone and install CWM in one hit.....all from your existing stock recovery. The CWM inPhilZ is NOT temporary, though it WILL be overwritten when you flash the ROM which will contain it's own permanent version of CWM. Just match your phones build version to the PhilZ kernel that you download.......

Why make extra work for yourself by increasing the number of steps you have to take (use framaroot then try to find a compatible CWM) when you can do it in one step?

And as mentioned before.....DON'T use ROM manager on an S2.....it breaks things....specifically recovery....one of your prime goals.....

This might be my S2, or it might be my W...but it's definitely CM
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blomberg:
I made big projects of things. As a complete novice within Android, I've read through numerous threads, made project notes, consolidated info and made Mindmaps to understand this.

From my understanding, a kernel (I've seen Siyah mentions on many places) is the interpreter between hardware and the instructions given by the software.

In which way is this comparable to a recovery partition/ROM, namely PhilZ?

I'm sure it's some detail I'm missing, and thanks for the tip. :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blomberg:
Thank you once again Keith for your engagement and good tips.

I think the reasons why I am considering the different options, and also trying them out - is to get a broader understanding of Android and the alternative processes as I approach my goal of flashing a new ROM.

1.) So far I installed Framaroot and rooted the device successfully.

2.) I then downloaded Hellcat's kTool and made an EFS backup (and a kernel dump, whatever that is)

3.) Then I installed Titanium Backup and backed up all user + system apps (+data I think)

4.) I then downloaded CWM from www.clockworkmod.com/rommanager > recovery as a zip, booted the stock recovery and started CWM (locally, without replacing stock recovery for some reason), from which I did a full Nandroid backup (with stock recovery intact in this backup, I guess. Device was however rooted so it's not fully original).

I reckon I now just need to download my custom ROM and it's relevant Gapps.

I have read good things about Mobile Odin, and since a while back it supports *.zip files so I believe it is a good alternative for flashing custom ROM's now as well.

PhilZ was a bit intimidating, as there was a general thread and different model based threads in each subforum. They were also in different versions, dates and basebands. Also it appears to be available in a "permanent" download as well as a "temporary", which caused my confusion in the last thread.

I did not know that the recovery was replaced when installing a custom ROM, as I did not know that they contained their own partition of a recovery ROM.

Thanks for the information about not needing to re-flash ROM after the relevant wipes.

Thanks for the discouragement of ROM Manager, I promise to stay away from it. :D

From my understanding, PhilZ seems to be a modified version of CWM6, which includes ChainFire's Auto Root and some other add-ons as well. Is this a correct understanding?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] D-Construct:
You don't need to backup system apps/data from Titanium Backup because restoring them on a new rom will definitely cause issues.

Plus in case of a bad flash or something nandroid is always there for you so before doing anything new with the phone always do a nandroid backup.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keithross39:
PhilZ is a modified stock kernel with CWM and root 'baked' in.....this is why it's important to match the kernel with your build. In all other respects, it's identical to the kernel that came pre installed on your phone. As kestrel5915 has said.....backing up app data is not a good idea......apps on their own...no problem....just not data.

Mobile Odin *can* accept zips, but I *believe* it tries to extract them to .tar format before flashing them (as far as I know)..........

This might be my S2, or it might be my W...but it's definitely CM

Is there a way to do that?

Also, can I do anything to have IE bookmarks in Russian to be recognized by the system?

Hi,

I installed twa_priv's most recent update - [ROM] [4.4.2] CM11.0/SGT7 for the Kindle Fire [20131215] - and everything seems to be running fine, except the Amazon Kindle app continually crashed whenever I try and open it. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the app, as well as reflashed the ROM but the problem persists. Anyone else encountered this, or figured out a solution? Is it possible that the Kindle app doesn't yet support KitKat? thanks much in advance.

Beautiful rom! I just installed it! I believe it is fast too! But i faced some fc's...The walkman when i chose the option to look all my music fc.The same happened when i chose to look all my photo albums.The album force closed.I cleared the data of walkman and album as well but i faced the same thing.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Gjole86:
KitKat is boring after a while, after all I miss the Sony UI ..

Time to refresh memories with this one, looks so beautiful on the screen shots.

Thanks for this Rom.

Used it for two days. This is my review about the Rom.

The performance of this rom was good. Camera was good.

Small apps worked flawlessly.

The most important one is that the dialer was very quick when compared to other rom.

Got fc while accessing settings (apps management) and ram cleaning.

WiFi, Bluetooth and gallery were working well.

Sony Album could be replaced by Sony Gallery2 to save space.

Overall a good Rom with all the required functions.

bug

Change themeç

When you change theme, no restarts and reports an error, then the manual restart will not finish booting
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Ayush Singh:
That is strange bug, did you do a clean install?

Or it could be you have deleted SemcGenericUxpRes.apk from framework

Try changing the theme accent from Theme Changer and you will get back the SemcGenericUxpRes.apk

The ROM, As the name suggests has been tried to be kept close to Xperia Z UI so Album was to be added instead, and is fast too

You may use QuickPic app supplied with this ROM for ICS Gallery like grid view

The same thing as above, App has accidentally deleted SemcGenericUxpRes.apk without replacing it, Try the app again, it happens sometimes but the app works 90% times
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Saqib Nazm:
1st tell us what does the error say, 2nd check that if "Sony" folder is in your sd card or not, & inside it there should be different color named folders with a "SemcGenericUxpRes.apk" inside each. Check if you deleted any of them or not

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DatacomGuy:
Currently have a S3.. LOVE this phone. A LOT.. But i have mounds of GPS issues that are pretty common, thanks to Verizon. I use this phone every day for GPS and i struggle severely. Time to do something about it.

I LOVE the Samsung platform.. and love the size of the Note series. Thinking about a used N2.. but before i jump on one, i want to make sure the same GPS issues haven't carried over. Is anyone familiar, and can they attest?

Also, I see hundreds of threads as i read through this subforum about soft-bricking, root not taking, not being able to flash ROMs, and other issues. Are these N2 issues, or user issues?

Third - is there another phone, for the same money, that maybe i might find better use or performance out of? $300 budget..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Jiggabitties:
I would say most of the "issues" with rooting and flashing on the note 2 are user issues. I have had my note 2 since day one, flashed a countless amount of roms/updates with no issues. The phone is solid. While there isn't a ton of development for it compared to some of the more popular devices, the development is does have is great. Using CASUAL to root is mostly painless, using ODIN in case you screw up is simple.

I don't use GPS daily, but I most definitely DO use it, and I have had no complaints. Even on AOSP Roms like CM it works great. I did not own an S3 so I cannot make comparisons.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DatacomGuy:
Easy enough for me. Thanks for the feedback. I'm very comfortable with the root process, just wanted to make sure it wasn't a HW prob that i might struggle to overcome.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] geekcop:
If you plan on flashing custom ROMs, do know that some of them have GPS issues, the most common being that they don't ever get a lock on your location. I had a huge problem with this on the PAC Man ROM. Liquid Smooth and JellyBeans have given me no such issues.
