[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] thms':
Hi.I have recently bought a Xperia E Dual, and, as I enjoy customization and efficiency, I have been trying to install custom roms on it. I really wanted the CM10 jjm34's or hsr0's ROMs, but it seems that I am a unlucky person. Every CM10 based ROM I try gives me the same problem: the deadly GSM bug. Here is what happens:

- I flash the stock rom with the right firmware (11.3.A.2.1)

- Flash a recovery (usually the one that comes with the ROM, have tried already

- Boot to recovery, wipe data and cache, flash zip from sd.

Alright, it works. But for the five times I tried, the deadly network bug comes, usually 1h-1day after the installation.

Here is what I get:

- Blank IMEI

- Can't select any subscription at SIM selection

- Network Unkown

- Can't make any call/send messages/connect to E/2g/3g/etc

The first time it happened, was just random. Simply stopped working. The second time was when I was accepting a call. The other ones happened just like those 2.

I can't seem to find a solution to it. I see some people with the same problem, but no one has the actual answer. Some say to wipe cache/data, wipe dalvik cache, reflash the ROM and etc, but the only way it really works for me is to flash the stock rom again and start over. I can't keep with this.

Do you guys think it's a kernel problem? Can you think of anything I could try? Please?

I'm asking for your help.

Thank you.
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] KDB223:
You can try to flash 11.3.A.2.23 (SS firmware) instead of 11.3.A.2.1 at the very first step.

I dunno if it'll work or not, since I don't own a Dual, but its worth a shot.

(It rid me if the network bug)
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] thms':
Thank you

I remember someone saying that SS firmwares don't work with DS (Not even 1 sim works).

But I think I'll try it, though. Thank you for your help.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
So go to Samfirmware/AndroidFirmwares.net/Samsung-Updates.com, get some stock roms for your country/carrier & flash them. If it's a case of the IMEI disappearing temporarily, you'll get it back. If it's permanently borked & you don't have an EFS backup, take it to a Samsung service centre or local mobile repair shop.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] resudo:
Hello. I just ordered my galaxy note 2 N7100 Int. version(not the n7105 lte one). I live in Greece and the phone should have arrived by 15-20 January. Even though I'm not an android noob and im using android for 2-3 years and made my own ROMs as well, I have no clue how Samsung phones work. So I would like a detailed guide please about the steps I'm will mention:

*What is the latest official firmware I can install on my N7100? How can I do that?(I'm not familiar with OTA's)

*How can I root that firmware? What is the best option for rooting it?(chainfire etc but give details on how to do it with those methods)

*Do I need to unlock my bootloader to install custom recovery and flash a rom?If so how can I do that?

*Is Philz recovery fully working and compatible with 4.4+ ROMs? If so how can I install it? If not whats the best recovery with support for 4.4+ ROMs?

*What is the best ROM with the features of Note 3?(stable no bugs good for gaming) How can I install that ROM?

*What is the best 4.4 ROM?(stable no bugs good for gaming) How can I install that ROM?

*How do I backup my IMEI?

*What is the procedure to install a ROM?(on my old phone it was : 1)Backup 2)Factory reset 3)Wipe cache,dalvik cache, system, data, and again format cache 4)Install ROM 5)Install GAPPS and reboot. Done. Are there any differences here?

I wont buy a new phone for the next 1-2 years at least so I wont my new phone to be safe when playing with custom ROMs. If you are about to comment without a detailed guide or at least telling me where to look for that guide dont comment at all, it wont help me.Thanks in advance and sorry for the trouble.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Androidwizzard:
Too many questions to answer and therefore I recommend to go to the Development section for further information. Each Rom has its own install instructions, just read there and learn more about your device :good:

You can't get spoonfed here, sorry mate.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dalanik:
To try to answer just a few... really too many questions, you need to read a bit before posting so many questins :)

*What is the latest official firmware I can install on my N7100? How can I do that?(I'm not familiar with OTA's)

MKD - Indian, MK9 - european, ML3 - asian. They all work on any int 7100 model.

*Do I need to unlock my bootloader to install custom recovery and flash a rom?If so how can I do that?

You just have to root.

*What is the best ROM with the features of Note 3?(stable no bugs good for gaming) How can I install that ROM?

Most popular are DN3 and Phoenix (also maybe DR Ketan's custom ROM, but it isn't developed anymore). I personaly use Criskelo which is really stable and smooth.

*What is the procedure to install a ROM?(on my old phone it was : 1)Backup 2)Factory reset 3)Wipe cache,dalvik cache, system, data, and again format cache 4)Install ROM 5)Install GAPPS and reboot. Done. Are there any differences here?

In Phils's recovery (I recommend v 5.15, not v 6.x - because of Aroma bug) you do "prepare for ROM flashing" and then flash ROM. Erasing dalvik/system/cache etc can't hurt but is not necessary, all is done in one go. From ODIN - go to download mode, connect to PC, run ODIN and select md5 file to flash.

Hey [MENTION=1665438]dalanik[/MENTION] thanks for your quick answer. I have some more questions for you. First of all, are 4.4+ roms stable for this phone for daily use and gaming?

I think if youre on 4.1.2 you need to flash new bootloader. Each rom has instructions so hav3 a look at rom thread
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vagsvag:
First when arrives your phone see the firmware version, if it has 4.3 and flash custom recovery firmware etc you loose your warranty and for the moment is not possible to take warranty back. If your firmware is 4.1.2 the things are more simple you can flash everything (except 4.3 official bootloader also 4.3 official firmware witch includes bootloader) and have when you need your warranty back.

All your answers are in the forum search for start dr.ketan threads. You can start from here (old thread but very good writed for 4.1.2 there are some differences with 4.3 you have to check before act for example mobile Odin trigger the warranty at 4.3 also triangle away cannot affect knox etc etc)

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1896696

he has plenty of guides solutions etc and I think you will find many answers for your questions. Now if your phone is at 4.1.2 firmware and you want to flash 4.3, root etc or 4.3 custom rom (not all) repost to guide you how to flash and also have your warranty back.

*Baseband N7100XXDMF1

*Kernel 3.0.31-1071214

*Build number JZO54K.N7100XXDME6

The phone is COMPLETELY stock, no root no custom recovery nothing. Can you please give me full instructions on how to install this ROM please?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mashed_Potatoes:
About 4.4 ROMs, i have tried them.

Things that don't work:

- Bluetooth ear piece???

- Camera is not 100% stable

- I don't have sound when recording videos (Could be just me, no one else is mentioning it :(:( )

- Bad FPS in games (tried many kernels and governors, still bad. AGAIN, could be just me, no one else is mentioning it :mad::mad::mad: )

And that's it.

For DN3

- Root

- Flash recovery (TWRP my choice)

- Full wipe (data,system,internal storage,cache)

- Flash DN3 (you will now get a bootloop)

- Flash it ONE MORE TIME,

There is something wrong with AROMA installer, if you look closely it doesn't install the ROM for the 1st time, hence the bootloop.

Also, you DON'T NEED TO FLASH the new bootloader. I'm on the DMG1 bootloader and i'm running DN3.

If you don't flash the bootloader, you have to flash the Wi-Fi fix, to get the Wi-Fi working.

You may also experience a reboot once in a week or 2 weeks, it's random.

I personally don't want to flash the BL, because i'm terrified of ODIN. I have a bad history with it :laugh:

- Root -- how can I root my device? Link?

- Flash recovery (TWRP my choice)? I want Philz recovery. How do I flash it? Is there any problems with flashing DN3 with Philz recovery?

-What are the prerequisites to get DN3 ROM to work FULLY? Have you noticed any important bugs while using it? What bootloader do I have to flash to get DN3 ROM to work? How can I flash that bootloader? Remember I'm on stock 4.1.2

-How can I access Recovery on this phone?

I don't know about Philz i had it before TWRP but that was before DN3 existed =D

I found no bugs in DN3, its a bit slower than 4.1.2 and the ram usage is higher

You flash the bootloader through ODIN too but i cant help you about that i don't know

Once you root your phone download an app called Quick Boot which will allow you to access Download and Recovery modes with one click

[MENTION=5564860]Androidwizzard[/MENTION] [MENTION=1665438]dalanik[/MENTION] [MENTION=2158728]vagsvag[/MENTION]

I successfully rooted my device with CF and ODIN and now I installed latest Philz recovery as well.

One last question.. I'm now on official 4.1.2(again xD)and like I have said again I want to install DN3 ROM.. What bootloader do I need to flash to get DN3 to work?How do I know what bootloader Im using right now?

What I think the procedure is

1)Install 4.3 bootloader while running 4.1.2

2)Make a backup with Philz recovery

3)Full wipe and install 4.3 DN3 ROM.

Is this correct? Dont forget to answer the other things I asked you!! Thanks in advance!!
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dalanik:
There is only ONE bootloader you can flash that is KNOX-Free, and that is MJ5. All other bootloaders have KNOX. Do not use Wi-Fi fix as that will fix your Wi-fi but may introduce instability, reboots, etc. Well, not the Fix, the fix is fine, but the rest of the old bootloader. Just flash MJ5.

I'd do backup FIRST and then flash bootloader.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] resudo:
What is KNOX? If I flash MJ5 while running 4.1.2 and then flash DN3 are there going to be any problems?(instabilities wifi issues etc)Also how do I backup my bootloader? And what bootloader am I running now?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Androidwizzard:
FIRST of ALL: Don't use the latest Philz, RUN 5.15 is the best way to flash 4.3 custom roms with Aroma installer!

As mentioned: You got to take MJ5 if you ever want to go back to stock 4.1.2 at any time, besides you won't have wifi issue.

Only way to change bootloader: PC Odin.

Befor starting to install a custom rom read the instructions on the OP of the desired rom. There you find all necessary wipes to do :good:
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] resudo:
[MENTION=5564860]Androidwizzard[/MENTION] so to flash DN3 ROM this is what I have to do:

1)Flash Philz 5.15 recovery with ODIN

2)Flash MJ5 bootloader while running official 4.1.2

3)Make a backup of current with recovery

4)Make the necessary wipes with recovery and flash DN3 ROM

Is everything I mentioned above correct?

Also how do I go back COMPLETELY stock if I ever want?

And btw is DN3 ROM good for games? I play lots of heavy games like GTA:SA etc..

Thanks A LOT guys for helping me, I know I'm annoying but I'm really new to Samsung and this all seems really strange :P

This I copy from the OP, go there if the links given here won't work:

Quote:

Go to here to see instructions.. :p

1) remember to have a backup your data and your efs folder. That's something that you always should do before flashing anything

2) Go to CWM recovery via pressing home + power + volume up button at the same time.

3) Use the "Clean to install a new rom" option in Wipe Data and system.(clean installation recommended)

4) Flash the rom. It should take less than 10 minutes till it boots.

4.1) If you can't activate wifi after the first boot we recommend you to flash MJ5 BOOTLOADER IS RECOMMENDED. DO THAT THEN PROCEED. From JOELDROID ROM DOWNLOAD WHERE IT SAYS SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR 3.6 AND ABOVEthank JOEL THE GREAT FOR IT TOO. Remember that everything you flash you do it at your own risk so do your research before flashing anyhting.

4.2) Boot again in the rom and check if wifi works.

8) Enjoy the ROM

PS:

If you are afraid to flash mj5 bootloader then read this post fromdr.ketan and try to do what he says. But if you face random reboots or some other strange issues please note that this might be the cause.

[MENTION=5564860]Androidwizzard[/MENTION] one last thing. I have to flash MJ5 bootloader while running 4.1.2 and then flash 4.3 OR flash MJ5 AFTER flashing 4.3?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Androidwizzard:
Both possible, even that your wifi will work with your old BL. When I first started out to flash custom roms I also had old bootloader without any problems, so if you want to try, just go ahead!

Hello all.

Well my girl has gotten a note 3. She is coming form a HTC ONE m7 phone. i will be getting a note also.

But on to the problem.

When she uses the WatchOn app. The remote works fine to input the channel numbers and control the inputs.

But when she clicks on the tv guide buttons it doesnt change the channel right.

I.e.

She hits cartoon network and it will input "62- " into the tv. OR and it does tihs for any tv gudie channel she clicks on.

It adds a "-" after the channel and therefore the tv doesnt go to the channel.

I know on the HTC One it doesnt do that.

Is there a way to fix this? or an option we might have missed?

As said tho if she manually presses the buttons it works fine.

[HTC One S] Rapier:
Yes it is. Ok, now as suggested before by Mozziliac, you should try to reflash kernel in fastboot. I think you do this after each ROM flash right? I have an S4 so I'm not 100% certain if the things are the same on S3, but if you're S-On than you cannot write kernel directly from recovery. I remind you the steps:

1. extract from the ROM zip the file boot.img located in /system. copy on your PC where ADB/fastboot is located (usualy /android-sdk/platform-tools)

2. reboot your phone to bootloader, connect it on your USB and enter fastboot (you should get "fastboot USB" on your phone's screen)

3. open a command prompt in the location of your ADB (and where you saved the boot.img from the ROM) and issue the following command:

fastboot flash boot boot.img

4. restart phone after flashing

You should have them working...if not, it might be something else and it'll be useful if you can take an logcat while you're trying to switch on WiFi and/or BT

P.S. Edit your post and remove personal information like serial or IMEI number of your phone (I've edited my quote but I cannot edit your post). Such info is good not to be disclosed publicly
