I only use ODIN for 2 things - flash bootloader and reinstalling stock, after messing something up (soft brick). Suggesting that if the other person was already using ODIN to flash bootloader, and wanted to reinject stock, might be just as easy to ODIN everything.

You probably are correct - also monitor DN3 forum, which may be where I was getting that from.

At 1 point, CM 10.1 was verifying bootloader was up to date and if not, phone would not reboot with updated ROM. Is it imperative that you update your bootloader? Obviously not, as many people have not and have had great successes that way. Also, updating your bootloader is probably more dangerous than flashing a ROM, as it has a much larger potential for bricking your phone. Just like your computer - do you need the latest and greatest drivers, BIOS, etc? Typically not...but short of BIOS, I update Windows software and all drivers as frequently as allowed.

I am a little more old-school so for reverting to stock and installing custom recoveries, i PREFER ODIN. I have used Goo Manager /ROM manager to install recovery but found less problems and inconsistencies when using the desktop and a few ADB commands. But again, to each their own... :D

You and the other guy misinterpreted what I said, that's what I did since I have had every version of 4.x over the course of them being released and I have had no issues.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] lebertian:
Question about fresh installing this ROM: I currently have v36, and for the next version I want to do a FULL CLEAN install, since I've been having a few issues and I read here that sometimes it helps.

My question is: what exactly does that involve? I usually do:

- Data / factory reset

- Wipe cache partition and dalvik cache

After this, I install the new ROM. If I go to the internal SD card though, I can still see stuff from before the Data/factory reset, so I assume I'm missing some step.

Also, should I update the bootloader? I currently have the stock one. I read how to do it in another post but looks like a lot of stuff, and I'm not sure if it's worth the risk...

I have the AT&T version (unlocked by AT&T) and no external SD card (just broke it)

Good day to you all. :)

Does anyone else have trouble updating or installing apps from Play Store? I've had "Quickpic" installed, but kept getting "Insufficient Storage Error". I've had the same with the Facebook app earlier, but a reinstall solved that. With Quickpic, that wasn't the case. I can't install the d*rned app again. And now Facebook is updating yet again, but my phone keeps displaying the "Insufficient Storage Error"... I've cleaned cache, I've rebooted, cleaned cache, reflashed ROM (I'm on v37),...still no luck. I did a clean install, when I came from Beanstalk.

I've Googled this too, but never found a solution.

Another thing...

In Settings / Security, I can't get to Password, Device Administration and Credential Storage unless I tab into Theme style first. How come?

Hoping someone can enlighten me

Thanks in advance.

That is actually a Google Play error. Wipe the data of the play store and reboot. I would also boot into recovery and wipe cache and dalvik just to be sure. As for your second question I have no idea why that is happening.

Home button inactive

hi there,

very happy with this ROM.

Since

dirty

update from v33 to v37 my Home Button doesnt work anymore.

The screen flickers alittle then returns to the page it was, without showing Home. This is also the case when using software "Home Button" like LMT (PIE replacement).

v33 was OK.

Using v37 with latest Devil kernel on 7105.

Thx for the ROM and your help

Sad to say temasek ROM have a lot of problem. I dunno if it happens to u guys.

First off the issue with sensor starting from build v30 till v37 it isn't fix

Then come the battery it was never good. draining super fast

I dunno if it my battery issue or my phone

I have now revert back to beanstalk to do the battery test n will report back a day or 2. Later.

Hopefully n I wish willl03 will actually come back n start making his beanstalk ROM but I think it will never happen =(
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Eun-Hjzjined:
^^ exactly. My proximity sensor sometimes works sometimes not. Power drain is happening to me as well.

Its not like I dirty flashed, I wipe all and start new(except for external SD card) when going to a new ROM.

What baseband/bootloader is everyone that is having problems using?

I'm still using the ma3 baseband, and I don't think I've done anything with the bootloader since rooting way back in the days of 4.1.2..

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] pcriz:
I think something to understand is that you will lose all photos and anything you downloaded or saved. To include the ROM you are about to flash. You do realize that right? When you do a factory reset it purposely does not touch the SDcard partition because in MOST cases any issues you have with the ROM will not be coming from whatever is on the SDcard. That is where a lot of your apps that YOU download store additional data.

I just see it as counter intuitive to wipe SDcard before installing a new ROM, because you will either have to boot into it again to download a new ROM or push it via ADB.

Frankly you want a clean install, wipe data and system.. Just MAKE SURE you have a ROM to flash on your SDcard after wiping system because it deletes your operating system...

TL ; DR Wiping SDcard will delete all picture and personally downloaded data (and local backups) and probably won't fix framework related issues

---------- Post added at 02:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:04 PM ----------

Kind of hard to make an objective comparison to someone using a zero lemon...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Senyaka:
This is true. You will loose everything. For some though, like myself, when flashing many roms for testing for various Devs, it can be either be AOSP based or TW based, and the partitions of the internal SD card can be different. Also when flashing many roms, you can run into problems of the internal SD going weird and only by wiping the internals will you be able to proceed. That is why for myself, and it's also mentioned by Devs too, to do a totally clean install, it would be worth your while to wipe the internal as well. Each to their own, and it can be a hassle. But if you are running into any issues, why not try every avenue to make sure things work? :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] pcriz:
I just figure it would be prudent to wipe system first before SDcard which I don't think he mentioned in his steps (maybe because most Roms do it for you but the ones that just overwrite may not overwrite init.D scripts). Sure wiping everything doesn't hurt either if you make backups that are not local. Thankfully I have had no issues like that but I also remove folders for applications I am not using anymore and if its app related I will clear the data for that particular app.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] solomon4400:
I haven't updated my bootloader. I use devil kernel and i over clock to 1800. I did however a couple of days ago realized that battery drain quite a bit and Google services would keep my screen awake for hours on end so i forced stop and cleared app data then i disabled Google now since it is really useless to me any way. And here is my results. Oh and i have stock battery.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Senyaka:
Oh yes. You are quite correct. Wiping system first is always a ways to go. But if worst comes to worst such as a corrupted internal sd for instance Wiping it clean is the only choice.

I havent really had any battery issues with previous updates but the latest one really has my phone draining much faster. I'm losing about 10% per hour right now compared to the 2-3% I was getting before. Seems like its pretty common with other users of this rom. It may be time to look for alternatives. :crying:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] lebertian:
When you say "wiping system first" do you mean the data/factory reset in recovery? And how do you wipe the internal SD card?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] XQuilet:
As comparison to beanstalk for t0lte this is a Rom with some issue n the issue have been mention in many build of the ROM from v30 to v37 I am not complaining or whatever I am just trying to point out bug so we could improve on the ROM to make it better.

And I very thankful to temasek for creating the ROM for our android community.

why I say so was what I have beanstalk all stock. No kernel change no greenify or any form of battery boost help or saver and the battery by far is the best I ever seen and if greenify were to be use. I think it will be superb.

Hopefully that the issue would be fix soon.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] pcriz:
No data factory only wipes the data partition. Wiping system wipes the system partition which contains the OS or ROM that is currently installed.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Senyaka:
It depends on which recovery you use. I personally use TWRP, the one posted in the Op. If you are, In the WIPE section, swipe first to factory reset. Then go to advanced wipe, and you will get a bunch of options there. They should be cache/dalvik/system/data/internal/microSD or external SD.

Just tick the ones you want wiped and then swipe, to wipe it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] lebertian:
Thanks for the info! And sorry for the noob questions, I still have a lot to learn for what I can see.

My doubt then is: if I boot into recovery (I have the latest CWM), do a system wipe and internal SD card wipe, from where do I flash the ROM? I usually have it in the internal SD card, but if I wipe it...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Senyaka:
Before you do anything as stated in above posts, make sure you back up your internal and put your photo's ect either on your PC or your external SD card. As for the Rom files, put them on your external SD card and you will be fine. With clockwork mod, the last time i used it, I'm pretty sure it had an option there that said, wipe to install new rom or something like that. From memory and do correct me if I'm wrong, I'm pretty sure that wiped my internal SD as well. But again, to be safe, Move everything of importance to you, either onto your PC or external SD. :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] lebertian:
I guess my issue is that I don't have a working external SD card right now. If I just wipe the system data I guess I can still flash the new ROM from the internal SD card, right? And maybe later wipe the internal SD and bring back just what I need from a backup...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] pcriz:
Im curious what issue do you think will be solved by wiping your SDcard?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] BigBison420:
comparison

For those of you who have been using this rom... I am very happy with Will's last Beanstalk 4.4.2 Rom, so i just wanted to know if there is anything to gain by switching to the Temasek ROM? I have heard all good things, just wondering if it would be a wash, for the time being. I am looking for multi-window though... other than that.... any different features?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Creampuffyness:
To be perfectly honest, it is very similar. I held off on moving to Temasek for quite awhile. Beanstalk 2.17 was so perfect for me I did not want to move. That being said, Temasek and Will are doing amazing works and there is an update almost every other day! This rom has baked in screenrecording and wisperpush if that sort of thing matters to you. I ran ART on both BS and Temasek and it works great for me. The biggest issue people have had so far on this ROM are camera issues, proximity sensor being stuck on, and battery life.

To resolve these issues I did the following:

Camera - Camera KK from Market

Proximity Sensor - Turned off Pocket mode in settings

Battery Life: Turn off pocket mode and lockscreen notifications

I am pretty much back at BS performance and battery life. I have requested the Power Widget be added back into the ROM but looks like Temasek himself would have to do that, I use Power Toggles which is good enough.

Overall, if you love BS, come on over. I would recommend a clean flash as well, it solved some performance issues I was having.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Traqic:
If you use a 3rd party launcher, most have settings and homescreen backup/restore support. Backup to an SD card or cloudservice if you can so when you flash you dont accidentally delete them. Some launchers let you import homescreens as well.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] lebertian:
Well, I read in earlier posts that it was one of the steps involved to perform a full clean wipe. I also read that different ROMs format it differently, and it may cause issues (I came from TouchWiz). I think I'll try first just wiping system/data/caches and if I have any issue, then consider wiping the SD card
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] pcriz:
Symlinks are different leading to the SDcard when coming from 4.1.2 to 4.2 (and up) it would move all your data to sdcard/0/ because of support for profiles. There was flashable zip that would fix that IF you went back to 4.1.2, or you could just use something like ES file explorer and move all the files back to /sdcard/ from /sdcard/0/.

That instance aside ROMS do not format the SDcard at all. That stays untouched and in most cases (if not all) will not affect rom performance. I might be wrong but I have never formatted an SDcard unless it was to attempt to recovery/fix bad sectors on that card, and I wouldn't say it fits the definition of a "clean wipe"

I see format data/ factory reset and format system as a clean wipe.. Now certainly you can wipe the sdcard in the android OS, or in recovery then boot back into the OS and re-download the ROM. Then return to recovery wipe data and system but keep in mind too if you had a nandroid that will be gone too and you would have to back up again because those are also stored on the SDcard..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] lebertian:
OK thanks! This makes it more clear :) I think I'll skip wiping the SD card for now and see how it goes
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] ssewk2x:
Regarding the camera issues, I did a quick search on the Market and found a bunch of results with the term KitKat Camera, none of which exactly matched that name. So, which one did you use, and would you be willing to link it here?

I use Camera KK because I am able to save to external SD card. It does not have HDR, so if you need it look elsewhere.

Woah, I hope you guys that are talking about doing a FULL INTERNAL SD FORMAT are aware that you better have your EFS/modem/APN files and settings backed up before you do that. Yes, a 'factory wipe' isn't wiping as much as people think, but there are several partitions you do not want to wipe unless you are absolutely sure you know what you are doing.

I just realized today at work that I have an odd 'issue' that I am not even sure isn't a feature I am not aware of, namely that my phone seems to turn the screen on if it senses motion through what I assume is the proximity sensor. I have noticed this when I rummaged around in my work bag a couple of times today and the phone screen came on, and I certainly hadn't touched the screen or any buttons. Oddly enough my battery life is fantastic, I don't have the dying Terminator eye issue, and so this isn't a problem by any stretch, just... It is odd to have happen.

My proximity sensor is always on. I'd love to be able to. Change items on the power menu. Other than that, very nice.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] pcriz:
SDcard wipe won't remove radio/modem or efs.. If you backed up the efs it will remove the BACKUP. Also APN settings are baked directly into the ROM, it detects what carrier you are on and applies the APN settings that are applicable.
