[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] sprebble:
Thanks for your efforts. I was glad the problem was identified, I thought it wasn't Installing because I was Overlooking a step. I can sit back and relax now.

Thanks for your hard efforts.

updates:

yNoteKernel-konawifi-2.0j/yNoteKernel-kona3g-2.0j

yNoteRom-kona-1.1a

yNoteRom-kona-1.1a-N5100-extra

for n5110 users, only need to get yNoteKernel-konawifi-2.0j+yNoteRom-kona-1.1a

for n5100 users, need also yNoteRom-kona-1.1a-N5100-extra (ie yNoteKernel-konawifi-2.0j+yNoteRom-kona-1.1a and yNoteRom-kona-1.1a-N5100-extra)

note that n5100 contains a problem that you cant hear from the one you are calling. since i don own a 5100 so i cant test it myself. may be this problem can be solved by a bt headset, or perhaps there are some missing files. i dono if this can be fixed or when it can be fixed, so its your own decision whether to use it

pls report any problem during installation, or any other problems not in the known bugs list

and, sorry for the broken 1.1 rom due to corrupted files involved

hope that it will be fine this time without problems

thanks

hey ykkfive,

Have you ever give a thought about checking out Android 4.4.2 KitKat Test Firmware leak for Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 GT-N8000

http://www.ibtimes.com/android-442-kitkat-update-test-firmware-leaked-samsung-galaxy-note-101-gt-n8000-how-1577013 and see if this can be ported over to Note 8 as 4.4.2 port?

I know that at one point you said you may jump 4.4.2 port, so thought that Galaxy Note 10.1 GT-N8000 hardware/software specs are much closer to our Note 8, maybe that test firmware a good candidate?
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] ykkfive:
no, no go...

since we have n7105 kk :D

if n8000 is used for porting, i will have to redo all the layouts since the dimensions are totally different. but for n7105, there is only slightly difference in term of size and can be ignored (almost)

hey, btw, from your signature, it shows that your n5110 ..... :eek:
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] jazzespresso:
hey you the master here, me just making, sometimes, non-sense suggestions :p

and yes my Note 8 is GT-N5110 WiFi:cool:

I have tested your port way back when you first announce it, I was quite impressed, but several bugs made me switch it back..but I see you have been quite busy with new fixes and improvements, I am wondering if I re-flash it back your latest port, can it be called "beta release"? :cool:

As always, very very good work!

EDIT:

Ohh by the way, I was going to donate a little to your effort to go have beer on me, but getting this message when i go thru your donate link thru Paypall, and click send..Playpall displays this:

[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] ykkfive:
oh..... thanks for trying to break my zero balance account!!

i have ask them long before and they replied hk here donations is not excepted, he suggested me to use other ways like product selling. how can i have something physically for sell?

i will sort it out, may be we need to do to is something like transferring Money to your friends. i am not sure actually. any suggestions?

lastly, thanks again for your donations even though it was a failure but at least you showed me your heart. thank you

Well, n5100 prebeta didn't boot for me. Installed via Philz cwm recovery. Had to format /system, otherwise ROM file installation was too quick and unsuccessful. Extra zip installed with no errors, first boot stuck at bootloader note8 logo, so rom gui didn't initialize.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] ykkfive:
so, u reformatted the system, then installed 5110 baes file. was the installation a success? how long did it take?

after first boot stuck at logo, have u rebooted the phone to see if it boots?

and can u tell me more about the problems?
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] ykkfive:
how about others? no successful stories?

i have tested it last nite and it was fine
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] a_sh_:
Sorry, had little time.

Tried over again and here's my step by step report. I use PhilZ cwm.

1) did factory reset, format data+cache+system+dalvik cache;

2) installed yNote 1.1a rom+kernel zip (took about 1 min 45 sec);

3) install N5100 extra zip;

4) rebooted. More then 5 minutes nothing appears. Only get bootloader white label logo (Samsung Galaxy Note 8.0 etc).

BUT I managed to connect via adb (and the PC recognized the MTP usb device, but fails to establish connection). Connection drops every minute or so (seems like it is bootloop), but I got dmesg and logcat. Zipped and attached. Sorry, didn't filter it.

Boot Logo

ykkfive,

Installed the latest philz touch recovery, Installed [KERNEL+ROM] yNote-kona-N5110-0.6c no problem, booted, loved it. Decided to update, Wiped, factory reset, installed [KERNEL+ROM] yNoteKernel-konawifi-2.0j+yNoteRom-kona-1.1a, got suck at the boot screen like everyone else is mentioning.

Thanks for sharing your hard work to the community. Looking forward to the next update!

:confused:
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] ykkfive:
thanks for the info guys. looks like the installation of yNoteKernel-konawifi-2.0j+yNoteRom-kona-1.1a failed since it will copy system files to your phone and 5 seconds isnt enough

i am thinking of one of the possibilities, no one is using my kona recovery, rite?
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] ykkfive:
thanks a lot for the logs, this helps a lot

btw, can u send me the logs for all installations? can be found under /cache/recovery/ folder
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] a_sh_:
Yepp! Attached. Mind that I restored slimkat from backup after testing failed, so some latest logs are irrelevant.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] a_sh_:
For me it's true. Just didn't mention it in the OP and instructions. Is it different? Gonna check it later if it is.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] ykkfive:
nvm. thanks for your help
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] ykkfive:
hmm, since i have been using my custom recovery for so long, i have added many useful command for my own use. maybe this is the reason why u guys cant installed it successfully. anyway, let me read the log files first
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] ykkfive:
ok. found the problem. here is part of the installation log

the problem was, /system/bin/toolbox was called to perform file extraction, however, since /system was reformatted so no such file error occurred.

in order words, the needed files were missing due to a system wipe and thus installation failed.

however, since i have been using my own recovery which is self contained and can be run without the system partition (i was doing so since i9000 coz i need to make sure the phone can still run with recovery alone without the system), therefore i had no problem

so there are 2 alternatives

1) use my recovery (but i have to check if the one i uploaded contains all the files needed since there were many updates before). this is a quicker solution

2) to rewrite the installation process and try to make it works with unmodified cwm recovery. this will take longer

there's an old version on the first post

in the mean time, another guy is testing a new version. awaiting his reply on this
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] a_sh_:
You're great as you've always been!

Btw, do you know that you have to edit update-script in recovery zip to install it on N5100? After I did it I saw (modded?) PhilZ recovery ver. 6.19... And had same boot freeze/loop after installation. May be we need updated recovery for both versions?
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] ykkfive:
yes, i have edited the script

and this time, similar to previous problem, just like corrupted files again. i have tested it before without problem but now i can see errors
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] b3ltazar:
I tried to install your recovery says successful but doesn't install. Any suggestions.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] a_sh_:
Are you sure it didn't? It looks the same as Philz Touch cwm, I found it was different by version number in the bottom of the screen - it is not the latest.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] pvsgh:
I actually used the Recovery from Downloads section on 1st page:

md5: BCA1A129759BD040FD047279169E4B06

But looks like it is actually Philz Recovery, and produces the same issue. Stuck at Note 8 Bootloader Logo.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] ykkfive:
just hold, same problem as before (likely corrupted)

yes, it was based on and previous version of philz touch cwm

i added some more things to the recovery

but this time for the problem, same issue
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] ykkfive:
damx it, black out!! one of the light buttons leaks...

just wanna say i want to fix the problem without u guys to redownload the file again

No problem, take your time, no hurries. I would really like to see this ROM running on my Note 8.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] ykkfive:
But i am feeling a bit guilty ...

All files should be fine and well tested, but now my files arent usable and corrupted, not only once but twice

Although i learnt from this, i am really sorry about that, and sorry for disappointing u guys, including those who downloaded it silently in china since they had to 'find a way' to get the files

hi folks

i am really sorry about the problems for the ynote kona 1.1 these days, please accept my apologies, from the bottom of my heart

the problems were due to, in short, unexpected behaviours by the system, probably memory related

anyway, i have uploaded a fix for this which (i tested 4 times) bypass the suspected problem area. you will need to install this fix only for the whole installation process, it will handle and install the files for both n5110 and n5100. pls get the file attached in post #1 (pcloud down currently)

but 1 thing i couldnt test was to install it with unmoddified cwm since my partitions are in f2fs format, and i don have enough disk space to move the files around

note that it fix must be placed in the same directory of the ynote kona 1.1a files, including n5100 extra

so good luck everyone
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] ykkfive:
if u think u r not experienced enough to handle the problems they talked about, i would suggestion u to wait for a few hours as to see how's the feedback, coz i don wanna make anyone in trouble

just finished a fix for this, pls rerad the op or the post above

Thank you. Have installed this rom via new fix. This rom is nice looking. Thanks again.

oops, for the info : not a big problem for me, but my device is 5100 and a phone part is not working at all. Just no network. It's look like no modem installed. (i'v flashed the modem once more and still no go)

In the power menu it says that mobile netwok is not activated and when i push it to activate it says that no sim card.

In any way, many thanks for you.

I'm on 5110 and wifi isn't working. It sees it, but when I put my password in it just keeps "obtaining ip address". Then it gives me the network too slow, disconnection warming.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] uauzer:
For my device 5100 WiFi is working well. This is the only way how i can connect to the web now :o
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] pvsgh:
So this is how I installed this ROM.

Took the files from the fix file and put them into ROM archive replacing original. Installation went fine. No issues in installation. Have to change the language to English during initial Setup-Wizard.

Only issue so far is related to Wifi. We can't connect to 5GHz Wifi network from this ROM, it sees the network but can't connect. This could be a major issue for people from USA. Even in my case I would really like to get 5Ghz wifi network working.

BTW....I have GT-5110, wifi only model.

Edit:

Another Issue, I can't get ADB connectivity working with this ROM. Not sure if I have to install Kies 3 to update the drivers, but my Note 2 works fine.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] abax44:
I reinstalled everything again and it's working now. 5ghz too.

weird, the tester told/showed me it was working. have u install a different modem? or maybe file missing

sometimes it mis behaves....

wifi should work, and set to 5ghz enabled. adb shouldbwork fine, i think its due to you have incorporated the installation files

glad to hear that
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] ykkfive:

oohh my god!!

http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/3/?download=29280

Model: GT-N5100

Model name: GALAXY Note 8.0

Country: Poland

Version: Android 4.4.2

Changelist: N/A

Build date: Thu, 01 Jan 1970 00:00:00 +0000

Product Code: XEO

PDA: N5100XXDND8

CSC: N5100OXADND8

MODEM: N5100XXDND8

=============================================================

mine is GT-N5110, so I don't see it yet...should be out soon...

now, this is most likely bundled with all freaking knox stuff, locked bootloader (speaking based on my note 3 4.4.2)..on Note 3 4.4.2 thread, no one able to find a root solution for it, but hoping it won't be the same case for Note 8's 4.4.2

let's rock on roll :laugh:

Edit:

For some reason I can't able to download above offical 4.4.2 firmware from sammobile - I was going to download and create a mirror....anyway if anyone able to download, let us know.

I know this just come up, but hoping ykkfive dive in 4.4.2 :)
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] ykkfive:
yeah, i knew it hours ago, and hours after my fix....

root is not a problem for me on my phone so far since i dont use ota and i extracted only the files i needed without bootloader nor knox things. so both my note2lte and note8 are running very old bootloader which wont have any warranty void issue, unless i am forced to update bootloader :)
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] uauzer:
Just installed the new 4.4.2 and there are no mach bloatware only standard set fm samsung. Also, root is not a problem. Needs to flash PhilZ last recovery via ODIN and reroot within recovery.( Advanced settings)

I'm sorry for the offtopic.

bro, you made me jelly, or better yet, katty (?) lol.

[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] jazzmachine:
Just got the new ROM and kernel installed after a few failed attempts prior to the fix being posted. I just want to say that this is an excellent ROM, which I've been running for a while now, and the new version (just a couple hours testing) seems much smoother and more complete (nice work on the revamped settings). Major thanks for this ROM, which I think we're seriously lucky to have...

...not just because it kicks ass, but also because I definitely don't plan on being a KitKat early adopter. My phone is a Note 3 on T-Mobile which I still have on 4.3 (Tweaked ROM) because the 4.4.2 update was widely recognized as a significant downgrade. There are some solid KK ROMS out for the phone at this point, which have fixed many / most of the problems, but I'll be keeping my current setup until TweakedKat is released (there's a 50%ish alpha at this point). Anyways, I'm so glad that I didn't succumb to the urge to flash 4.4.2 because one needs to update the bootloader, and after that there's no going back.

So major thanks for continuing work on this ROM! The update seems solid. Really appreciate you taking the time to work the kinks out of the installation script; must have been super frustrating!

btw, Devil Kernel Manager is a really nice app. What settings are you all using with it? So far I just bumped the max CPU up to 1920 and undervoled the CPU -25mV across the board. Any tweaks to the GPU helpful? Multicore Power Saving recommended? Been browsing the app thread, but curious about recommendations specific to this ROM...

update

201405130312: [ROM] yNote-kona-1.1a-patch01 [importancy: HIGH]

- fixed incorrect battery info

- applicable to yNote-kona-1.1a (both N5110 and N5100)
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] ykkfive:
thank you mate

there's no single settings that fit for every devices even with same model or same production batch, u will need to test the settings, especially the voltage settings, one by one as to find a "stable" value. but in general, -25 for cpu voltages should be fine

for the gpu tweaks, i didnt see major effect though but changing the voltages help to save battery. in fact the major reasons for battery consumptions are those apps/services that u don need but keep staying at the background

personally i only changed cpu voltages and some other minor tweaks, as the kernel was fined tuned already especially in ynote kenerl 1.x, plus the advantages for f2fs, i am satisfied (i cant say i am happy with) about the performance. of coz it can be much more better but since i released it publicly, i cant keep too many versions for the tweaks like trimming apps size etc

it is not yet finished, there are quite a lot of things need to do like per color tunning, tablet ui, per app scaling, layouts, bugs etc, just to name a few....
