[Galaxy Note II Android Development] rattymon:
I was using a custom 4.1.2 rom for a long time and then I felt like an upgrade. I came to the forums and saw a lot of stuff about KNOX and Bootloaders etc that I didn't really understand. I found a 4.3 rom (xperia-z-ized v2.1) and followed the instructions to install it. I had wifi issues so I flash dr. ketans patch and it worked fine after that. Then I started to get random reboots and boot loops. Someone suggested it was something to do with MJ5 and bootloaders etc.

I found your post and thought aha here is the solution, I read all pages and posts to familiarise myself. I then followed your instructions to install the MJ5 package on top of my 4.3 custom rom in the hope of sorting out my issues. Once done I booted up and had wifi issues. I thought ahh man let's just go back to a stock rom (minus knox stuff) so I downloaded yours that needed to be flashed via odin. I followed instructions but Odin failed, I tried again but no luck.

I thought screw it and I will go back to my backup of my 4.3 custom rom, which I have done. wifi is working although I probably will receive some random reboots as usual.

What I want is to be on a Stock 4.3 Rom, de-knoxed, rooted (I don't mind any other tinkering to improve). Then I want to apply mannyvinny's 240dpi mod and be happy with life. Is it possible? I read so many topics but I get more and more confused. Can anyone here help me out?

If it helps I am running:

Xperia-Z-Ized v2.1 custom ROM

4.3

Basband: N7100XXUEMJ9

Kernel: 3.0.31-2229877

Build: JSS15J.N7100XXUEML3

Thank you!

Thanks for such a hastle free upgrading process, i upgraded to v4.3 with ease, this is what i did while on 4.1.2 custom rom, downloaded mj5 bottloader+modem+recovery (final.md5.tar), downloaded twrp open recovery (openrecovery.img.tar file), rebooted phone in download mode (i wanna add here don't reboot to download mode using current 4-way reboot menu, only do that by turning phone off then press volume-+home+power and then press volume up to continue) and flashed final.tar.md5 as pda, when it finished installing, it rebooted to stock recovery, take out the battery and put it back in and enter download mode again, install openrecovery as pda and after finished installation, phone will automatically boot to twrp recovery, now perform full wipe and flash custom 4.3 rom, after flashing is done, dont reboot, install dr.ketan multi tool advance v6 and root + knox free using aroma option, and after doing this reboot your device, you'll have fully functional 4.3 rom with no wifi or random reboots etc issues.

Also i don't think flashing knox free firmware and at the same time worrying about warranty bit is justifying..you are doing nothing than wasting your time, samsung will not accept it if you have firmware without knox, nor do they will accept patched mj5 bootloaders, so why should we worry about it? Flash this patched bootloader and flash a custom rom, if you want to sale it , just flash your region's firmware.

Mobile odin will help you with the knox free firmware of op, but i am sure many of us dont belong to the region that has this firmware, so definitely this firmware will still not help you with warranty claim or reselling your device, if you want to keep your device and use it, flash this firmware without worry.

[MENTION=4764555]rattymon[/MENTION] I fully agree with [MENTION=4096534]Alipk52[/MENTION]: if you just like stock UI, flash dr.ketan's V6.1 zip.

I must admit that I fully trust that Samsung devices are awsome piece of hardware. From the other side, I don't give a sh** for their warranty and miserable customers service. When I buy the new, I just check on all my Samsung devices if whole hardware works OK (WiFi, camera, BT etc) and 5min later I root it and install custom ROM, never to return to stock. I never yet needed service, hardware is fantastic. Their software is nothing but a crap.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] rattymon:
[MENTION=5051515]tetakpatak[/MENTION] [MENTION=4096534]Alipk52[/MENTION] guys, thank you so much for your kind responses. I had kinda already done exactly how Alipk explained by the time I read your messages ending up with: stock 4.3 for TW features, 240dpi mod, Note 3 Features mod and Nova Prime for the launcher and all working sweetly! Trouble is, my phone is now doing a first boot after flashing Xperia-Z-Ized v3.1 haha - flash addiction! But you fellas helped me realise where my confusion lay so I really appreciate that. I also buy a phone outright, check it over and flash it 2 mins later so I also don't ever plan on getting service from any retailer or samsung! anyway thanks again pals, one love!
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] tetakpatak:
LOL :D I'm so glad, welcome to the club, mate :)

Well, there are so many great ROMs around and it makes fun to flash. I also try a lot around and flash often. I'm glad all works for you now! LOL, I also when I get a new phone just check the hardware is working 100% fine and 10min after that ig is rooted and has a custom ROM :)

Hey, just one more advice: be sure to backup your EFS folder on several different ways (like with TWRP, just copying the EFS folder with root browser or also backup it with other tools)

Ocasionally it can get lost by flashing a new ROM ....never happened to me yet after more than 200 flashing procedures on ca 30 different devices but every here and there people report to have lost it. The phone often can't be used after that as it doesn't get the signal, although sometimes it works even after losing IMEI. But it is definitely a safer road to backup it. It's the first thing I do on each phone right after root.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] James62370:
Hello and thank you for your development...

I stumbled upon here after upgrading my T-Mobile Note 2 to Android 4.3 - I did not do the OTA update so I am currently on a modified bootloader which allows my wifi to work without using the devil kernel. The issues I'm having is random reboots, and often times the phone seems to just hang.

I was wondering if your mod would work on the T-Mobile Variant, SGH-T889. I would like to stay on 4.3 but with some many random reboots and hanging issues, it's tough to stay updated.

I have tried practically all custom 4.3 rom variants. None appear to be stable, and I don't wish to upgrade to the latest bootloader at this time. Though, my warranty is almost up, I might just have to go that route if I can't find a more stable solution.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Edit: Since removing the modified bootloader from Dr. Ketan for the T-Mobile Variant of the Note 2, random reboots have stopped, however sometimes the phone does still hang. This however might be Rom or Kernel related.

Hi,

I am a bit confused, i click on the link in the 1st post and there are a few options, which is the '

Is there any wy to flash this without odin cz odin dont recognize my device...
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] tetakpatak:
First you have to install Samsung mobile USB driver and connect your phone (booted to OS and with USB debugging enabled), so the installation gets completely finished after ca 1 min.

As you seem to be novice, I would excersize with flashing recoveries with Odin, until you're sure all works. If you start with bootloader and Odin stucks when it shouldn't, your device will be hard-bricked.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] CitizenLee:
Struggling to find this too.

I did try flashing the file in "4.3 Kernel stuff" but it fails in Odin.

I'm currenty having reboot issues on Dr Ketan V6... every time I reboot my phone or try and enter recovery it goes into Download Mode or shows the Firmware Update Failed screen. I then have to pull the battery, which will then boot to Philz.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Dreading:
Hi, I rooted last night.

I'm boot unlocked.

S-ON

TWRP 2.6.3 (updated by Goo Manager)

SU User 1.8.6

Unlock took me down to 4.1.1

I tried to flash the most recent CM ROM in Goo Manager after a dalvik cache wipe and got stuck on boot. Is this likely because I'm S-ON or because I didn't use the right type of wipe?

Also, I know the MikMik ROM was the gold standard for a clean, lean and stable ROM without many bells and whistles on OG EVO. What is the equivalent for LTE/jewel? And so I need S-OFF for it?

Thanks in advance!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Magnum_Enforcer:
You have to flash the kernel separately from the ROM when S-on. Having said that, you don't have to be S-off to flash a ROM, but, as easy as the process is, it's worth it to be S-off. Take a look at the top link in my sig for more info. As for ROM advice, just start flashing until you find what you like. If you ask ten different people what their favorite is, you'll likely get ten different answers ;)

Something equivalent I'd say "MeanBean " read the OP for this rom
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Dreading:
Thank you!

Thank you. I was finally starting to understand that I would probably need to S-Off so I could flash the kernel for a ROM other than one that uses a stock kernel. I was just hoping to avoid it, because I usually know just enough to be dangerous to my electronic devices...

I'll be sure to check out Mean Bean. :)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Magnum_Enforcer:
Mean Bean actually has a kernel installer to make flashing while S-on easier. Just make sure you read the Mean Bean OP so you follow the correct steps to get it installed properly.

Hello,

How do I turn GPRS

OFF

On an Xda Exec?

I have a successful WiFi connection set up to my Works Netork and I want to browse the internet via that. However, GPRS just will not GO AWAY & keeps on insisting that IT rather what I WANT is the route to the internet.

Hence I want it gone, nada, no more.

I can safely say that I will NEVER browse the net using GPRS or poxy WAP sites - excessively expensive crapola!

Thanks in advance,

Andy

i have same problem , plz help
[Networking] BigRedJ:
and me! been searching but no luck yet!
[Networking] Rudegar:
not sure about 2005 but with 2003 i can just choose which connection i wanna use in connection->advanced
[Networking] levenum:
If you never going to use GPRS, just delete the settings:

Settings->Connections->Connections, under My ISP choose 'Manage existing connections', then long click on the GPRS setting (not sure what the name in your case will be, but it is probably the only one there) then choose delete.

You are now safe from GPRS charges.
[Networking] BigRedJ:
there is not option to delete?
[Networking] levenum:
It is possible that on your phone the connection is set up under 'My work network', try checking there. Somewhere there should be a connection with your GPRS settings and you should be able to delete it.
[Networking] BigRedJ:
i must be going blind, there is no option to delete, just edit or add
[Networking] levenum:
You are not going blind.

On the dialog it self there are two buttons 'Edit' and 'New'.

But if you tap and hold the connection it self (see little circles) you get a pop-up menu saying 'Delete' and 'Connect'.

It works on my Jamin, and it should work for you.
[Networking] BigRedJ:
aaahhh now youre talking! ok i'll give that a go :) ta
[Networking] BigRedJ:
oh bugger, ok thats worked BUT i thinki deleted my phone settings as now it cant find the network for calls, pratt, anyone got the setting so i can ut them back in, i dint reallt want to reset it after i got everything else working!
[Networking] BigRedJ:
got it working now! ta :)
[Networking] jeegnesh:
Same problem here, however I would like to use GPRS occasionally, so do not really want to delete the setting.

Example whilst at home, I want to use wi-fi, on the road GPRS.

Is there any tools that can turn GPRS on and off ?
[Networking] EMARTY69:
Just press the E or G icon on the top bar and you should have the option to disconnect. That is, if you've enabled GPRS Disconnect in your registry. Works like a charm. Whenever I want to connect via WiFi, I just disconnect GPRS and fire up WiFi...

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] meow876:
hi i have the at&t galaxy s4 with the mf3 baseband and i would like to root it.

i was wondering if there be any way to restore back to stock? like if i dont want it rooted anymore or i mess it up can take it off and go back to complete stock?

i know "Odin" wont work with the mf3 but how bad can you mess it up to actually need to use a recovery tool? is it easy to ruin it by doing to rooting process?

i want to root my galaxy to be able to install the tmobile rom on it to use wifi calling. and use the safestrap recovery to install the rom

if everything goes well and works will i be able to remove it all and go back to stock?

or if everything goes bad and i ruin it can i recover back to stock?

im curious if its worth the risk at all? or is there not a big risk?

thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] HORiZUN:
Odin does work on MF3, and you CAN restore your phone to stock, you just need to download the tar files. General section, mf3 md5 files thread.

General section, SafeRoot thread will take care of your root requests. It's so easy a monkey could do it.

You won't get T-Mobile wifi calling on a non T-Mobile phone unless big changes have been made since I left the company last year, but you can flash roms with SafeStrap.

Try another charger, lead and battery. If still the same then flash a full stock rom using odin.

If no better then it is hardware fault.

I think that now - i don' t know the reason - the cover-battery doesn't supply enough power to phone because i have seen that the charge of cover is more long than before.

When i use another charger the battery charges regularly..

Do you think that the items appear on BetterbatteryStats are of a normal conditions?

Edit: i have just tried to disconnect my cover-battery and i confirm that using only the charger connected to phone the percentage increases.

The cover-battery is defected.

[Sony Xperia M] szkandiszkandi:
hi guys,

I'd like to install CWM to my Xperia M C1905... how to put the phone to "flash" mode, please?

I tried volume down, up + power button => nothing

I tried Reboot your Xperia device pressing and holding the power button, when the LED turns pink then press the Volume Up button now the LED will turn Cyan from http://tips4droid.com/cwm-recovery-xperia-m-xperia-m-dual => nothing

Thank you.
[Sony Xperia M] vithrinful:
To boot into fastboot: power off your phone, hold the volume up key and connect the phone to your PC with the USB cable. When the LED turns blue, release the volume key. This is the one you need for CWM.

To boot into flashboot (for flashing firmwares using Flashtool) you hold the volume down key instead.

To boot into recovery: press the volume up key while the LED is pink as you wrote. It won't work until you install CWM.

I'm new to the androidverse (bought a nook hd 8gb on black friday, $79.00 woot!) I came across an app called themer beta, but google play sez it's not compatible with my nook (this version is incompatible). I've modified my nook by using a Carbon rom (many thanx to leapinar). I'm interested in themer because it's touted as rainmeter for android (love rainmeter on my desktop & laptop).

Copy your music to an SD card, put the SD card in phone, copy music to phone. Need a file manager? Try Total Commander.

Yes, using a direct connect via WiFi. There are different ways to do this; I use the app called Software Data Cable Pro from Play Store. Within the app, use the function "Sync Phone". You can also use "Sync PC" function, if you are on the same WiFi network - on another device, just run any file manager that supports FTP connections.

Bluetooth transfer, wifi direct connect, cloud transfer, external sd card and es file explorer are good for this.

Anyone else have this fear? Did you take the plunge to install it? Did everything work as normal?

The WM2003->WM2005 and WM2005->WM2003 migration of 100% safe if you follow instructions carefully.

The current best WM2005 for BlueAgel is TuMa 1.3

It's excellent work, but still buggy (and much slower than WM2003).

I flashed to WM2005 and back several times (testing newest WM2005 relases).

I learned that some nice features of WM2005 are not worth all the disadvantages. It's getting better, but just not yet.
