I miss the days when ROMs would just work. This ROM in particular won't let me turn Wifi on...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] stephanes:
Wifi work perfectly well with this rom. Have you read the OP instructions before flashing this rom ? Give us more information if you want help.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] pyraxiate:
I've been running the 3D version on f2fs for about a week. Zero issues what so ever. Must be user error ...... not the rom.

What bootloader are you using? If you are on 4.1, you need to apply a patch to make wifi work on ANY 4.3 rom.

If you need help. ... just ask humbly and supply as much info as possible ( bootloader, modem, if you checked md5, what recovery you used, if you wiped anything or everything, etc.

Don't be a tool, and help us help you.

Ok, maybe I can get some information here. I have a sgh-t889 that I want to get working for my mom for mothers day. I used odin to get 4.3 and messed it up. I tripped knox or something of the sort. Here is the current configuration.

android version 4.3

baseband : T889UVUCMK7

kernel: 3.0.999-Devil3.4_0.1.4

build number: android 4.3 Conch Republic Edition 3D

SE for android status: Permissive

My issue is that WIFI will not turn on and I understand I broke that by using ODIN to flash a stock 4.3 recovery or something along those lines. So here I am now, I have tried flashing a stock tmobile from and different recoveries but nothing has worked. Here is a thread from the QandA I started if you want to see what I have tried so far.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2739094

I just feel like I am so close to getting this thing nailed and really want to give it to my mom for mothers day. I will literally be by my computer ALL DAY and am very greatful to anyone who is willing to spend their valuable time on me.

Thank you!

Hey there.

First things first. If you cant get wifi working at all, revert completely back to stock and see if it works. I attached the version of Odin and the Drivers I use with windows 7 x64. Always check the MD5 of ALL downloads as this is where most users wind up with issues. An improper download will still likely flash, but will have corrupt internal files in the zip. I cant stress checking the MD5 enough.

The Odin file you want to flash is Mr Robinsons stock root injected located here :

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1975560 ( Dont forget to drop him a thanks! )

Once thats all good to go, check to make sure you do have working Wifi. Next install a compatible recovery. I used Philz Touch initially to install Conch Republic ( http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2552673 -- dont forget to drop him a thanks too ) . If you are trying to go f2fs, you will need the f2fs recovery after this step.

You may need to odin TWRP over before using Philz as I dont think he has an Odin flashable file and you need a custom recovery to start : http://teamw.in/project/twrp2/123

Hope that helps ! I know you tried a lot of it ( yes I read your thread ) , but try it again from the start. Check all MD5 files. Use a good cable. Dont use front USB ports if using a desktop.

Also, you cant downgrade bootloaders. I saw you ask that question in your other thread. Unfortunately you are stuck with a 4.3 BL.

KCCO My friend ;)

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Michigan Jason:
So I have had the famous WIFI NOT TURNING ON due to flashing the knox bootloader and all that. After flashing and wiping and following the instructions in the install of this rom conch, the first time I turned the phone on, wifi was on and I saw my network! I connected for a brief second and let the phone load up. Got the to apex launcher home screen and granted devil tools root. Wifi then disconnected and the phone tells me I don't have a sim card installed. Now after a reboot, wifi will not turn back on and it still says no sim!

I was so close to having it working and now this happened. I am hoping that this new info will help someone help me.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] EdKeys:
If it's not a hardware issue, then you need to wipe and format all partitions again. Take out your sim card and clean it with a cotton cloth and then make sure it is seated correctly when you put it back in. You really need to format your internal data/media partition. After you wioe and format all your partitions, reboot back to recovery and do them again. If that doesn't bring back wifi after flashing again and you have the issue on every rom you flash, then I'd say you have a problem with your phone. Hope this helps.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] gill_za:
First of all thank you OP for your hard work! I am running the rom now and it is very smooth!

Upon the install I have noticed that the spen lasso grab and crop image functionlity is missing. The rom needs follwoing file for it to work: SuggestionService.apk. Paste it into /system/app and restart. done.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Alex1x:
What's up fellow flashers :)

I'm trying to get on this rom and need your opinion.

I'm coming from Tweaked and I just want a stable Rom without issues.

What's the difference between 3D vs. 3S? Looks like 3S is simple wipe and flash vs 3D requires nand, wipe restore etc...? Is it worth the extra steps, why?

Thanks for any suggestions, if you can please summarize the flashing process, I'm a bit rusty not flashing in a while...

Thank you, thank you, thank you
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] EdKeys:
You should do all the wiping and formatting with either one. If you are coming from Tweaked and you haven't did an official upgrade to 4.3, then you don't have the 4.3 bootloader, and that's a good thing as far as i'm concerned. That said, your wifi won't work with the stock kernel so you'll either need to upgrade your bootloader to the official release, or odin a "wifi patch" (I had issues with it.), which is a modified bootloader to allow your wifi to work.

OR

, you can flash Edition D with Devil kernel and your wifi will work fine with your current bootloader. Whichever Edition you choose, you should wipe and format everything except your ext sdcard (sdcard1) as outlined in the OP for a super clean error free install. Just be sure you save everything that's important to you that's currently on your internal sdcard first.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Alex1x:
Correct me if I'm missing anything (again, sorry for being rusty):

1. Wipe All, keep ext sd

2. Odin Mr. Robinson Stock 4.3

3. Flash/odin CWM

4. Wipe All (data, sys, cache, dal)

5. Flash 3D in OP

6. Flash 4.3 modem

7. Reboot?

Am I missing anything (I already have nand of existing Tweaked)?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] EdKeys:
Number 2 is not necessary with 3D. Skip 2 and do everything else.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] gill_za:
With the Devil kernel edition (3D) camera will not work in my case.

Using Philz formatted and wipped everything twice as describbed in the first post.

flashed 4D

copied SuggestServices.apk to /system/app - everything but camera works (cant connect to camera or camera failed error)

Dirty flashed the 3S edition:

-everything but wifi works...

so does that mean I either risk the wifi patch and all the glitches with it

or i install the 4.1.2, upgrade to 4.3 but now have a KNOX enabled loader?

Is there a third option that I am not aware of?

PS.

The trick in post #83 by taking the nandroid backup did you basically preserv everything except for the bootloader partition and modem partition?. So when you flashed the Mrrobinson 4.1.2 you have also flashed the previous bootloader ( T889UVBMD1 ) and radio. After you have restored nandroid backup you had a 4.3 system with old bootloader from 4.1.2 and old modem. Thus the only thing you needed to do is to flash the newer modem (mk7) and that's it? This way you had old, KNOX Free bootloader in the 4.3 Stock-ish system?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] EdKeys:
Correct. If possible, try to stay on an older bootloader. You'll have to use devil kernel (maybe agni??) for wifi to work. Knox isn't really an issue though if you're past your warranty. Read up about it first before you make the jump. As for the camera issue, it creeps up from time to time for some users. Someone said they finally got past it by wiping several times and wiping the dalvick cache too. Maybe the differences in 4.1 bootloaders? Just guessing, but there were more than one. The camera issue may have corrected itself. You can dirty flash D and S over the top of each other if you want to try D again.

Correct on all points, but keep in mind that once you upgrade to the 4.3 bootloader you're stuck with it. No going back to an older bootloader.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] gill_za:
what puzles me is that I am running the recommended bootloader (T889UVBMD1) since I have previously odined this rom: so I should be getting wi-fi... I wonder .. i read something about tz.img being the reason for the lack of wi-fi... i'll try heimdalling it :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] EdKeys:
Maybe I'm misunderstanding you. You will not get wifi with that bootloader (same as mine) and the stock kernel. Sammy made the stock kernel work with only the new 4.3 knox bootloader. That's the reason for running with an alternate kernel - devil. If you want to use the stock kernel, you can odin the official Sammy 4.3 release or the rooted one by mr. Robinson and either one will update your bootloader to 4.3, or you can odin the wifi patch which is a modified bootloader without knox but enables the stock kernel to work on wifi. As I mentioned in the OP, I had issues with the patched bootloader so I went back to the bootloader that you are running now along with Devil Kernel and everything's been fine since.

Or am I still missing your issue?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] gill_za:
Ok that is what I thought. But then i can not figure out why when i had this rom installed which also uses older bootloader, wi-fi worked. I am confused myself.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] EdKeys:
Wow, you'll have to ask ciphercodes how he did that. I can see how you would be confused! Maybe he packaged the modified bootloader into his rom? That is only speculation on my part. Anyway, he managed to work some kind of magic for sure.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] gill_za:
He is claiming that the bootloader was not patched : http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=50050320&postcount=5

Just flashed it using Odin (killed Linux today accidentally as it turns out so no Heimdall) to make sure I am not hallucinating... and it works...

Is he using non-stock kernel?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] EdKeys:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.vndnguyen.phoneinfo

That'll tell you more. Looks like stock kernel to me. My guess is it's a modified bootloader...but it's just a guess.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Michigan Jason:
Is there a script or file I can use to literally wipe the complete phone as if I were to take a hard drive and use a software program to do a DoD wipe? Such as an all in one script to write 0's to the entire phone? That way I know I am clean?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] pyraxiate:
Best bet is to odin the stock image. Theres no wiping tool that I know of. Go completely back to stock with the oem samsung image. Then test.

A real wiping tool would repartition / format and in order to do that, we need a pit file.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Michigan Jason:
Every time I try to go back to 100% Sammy stock, ODIN Locks up on me. I am using version 3.7 and got the stock 4.3 image from sammobile.com
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] pyraxiate:
Odin isnt locking up. It takes a long time to do the md5 check. Just wait it out. Could take over 10 minutes on a slower computer. My i7 3770k takes a good 3-5 minutes. It will probably even say window is not responding. Just wait.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Michigan Jason:
ODIN is locking up. I am not speaking to the Md5 Check, I am talking about after it says the mD5 is valid. I click start, and it goes through the first few steps. Always freezes when it comes to system.

As far as my computers credentials, they are irrelevant. I have 24GB ram, and dual xeon quad core cpus.

Try changing to a different USB cable. My stock cable stopped working for me with odin and once I changed it odin worked again.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] gill_za:
Flash TWRP through Odin. Get image from their website. Before that or after that take a sdcard out ( in case you can't access the storage any other way on the phone) and using adaptor save on it PhilZ recovery. Boot into tWRP and flash PHilZ. In philz follow the first post and wipe all partitions as described several times.

This solved some of my issues the first time I was flashing. I did not have philz image

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Michigan Jason:
I have philz recovery right now, have been wiping literally everything even including my sdcardstorage and media sd storage. Everything is wiped. After that I will go to odin and try to flash the stock 4.3 t889 image and it freezes and will sit for hours and not budge. Always stops when odin says it is installing the "system" part of the file.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] pyraxiate:
There are only 3 explanations as far as I can tell. Either its your computer ( usb host controller or its drivers), the adb drivers, or your phone has corrupted memory. 2 of those are easily tested using a different computer. I wish there was more we can tell you :(

If you are local ( near Baltimore MD ), I'd say bring it over and we can use my system which I know works. If that fails, it's definitely a hardware issue.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Michigan Jason:
Totally appreciate your time! I sell computers for a living and (in my basement) right now I am sitting next to about 500 laptops. I will load one with window xp, one with win 7 32 bit, and one with what my normal desktop runs, win7 64bit. Hell, I could use a mac, or a Linux machine also. I really am dumbfounded by this!

As of right now, I used this rom, [ROM](2/12){S.W.A.R.M.ROM} T889UVUCMK7 Tmobile Stock 4.3 knox free-deodexed-rooted

After wiping everything, I am able to boot into the rom and have my sim card registered and working 4g data on the tmobile network. WIFI will not turn on at this point. I am on the knox bootloader I am 99% sure.

that package is from 4.3 rom and has tz.img and boot.img only so you should have no problems. You are not downgrading anything.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Coug76:
If Odin is truly failing...

Check that your model sticker on the device (under the battery) shows SGH-T889. Any letters beyond the 889 make a difference.

Re-download your root66 4.3 MK7 file. Check md5 separately from the auto check in Odin.

Try using Heimdall instead of Odin for the flash. Different software entirely for the same task. Heimdall *may* be a more stable platform for your flash. If you are hanging in Odin, Heimdall might be the difference you need.

Hastily spouted for your befuddlement

Unplugged at 7:30 am and now its 9:45 PM, 14 hours plus I'm still at 49%. This is amazing personal record for me on stock battery. This is with AGNi profile at Normal-Optimized as Awesome work and mentioned in if on AGNi kernel.

I read all of the OP 2 times plus and did exactly as stated with Conch Republic Edition 3D. Only deviation after flashing super SU step I flashed AGNi 3.9.5 kernel.

I'm still amazed and will be upgrading the wife's Note 2 that she is getting 18 hours + anyway. This is just sick http://xdaforums.com/images/smilies/biggrin.gif
