[Galaxy Note II General] muppetmania:
I regret it myself.

Though a lot of my problems (phone freezing every 24 hours, requiring reboot) and other pain seems to have gone away since I removed Knox (I installed it to test, then uninstalled it)

If it's easy for you to stay on 4.1.2 I really would - I wish I could go back.

Note: Not rooted, not running a kiddie ROM.
[Galaxy Note II General] muppetmania:
You can revert everything apart from the boot loader. Which means Knox warranty will be void when you do it.
[Galaxy Note II General] dalanik:
Why don't you install pre-rooted stock or custom ROM? Just flash MJ5 bootloader from Odin - it is compatible with both 4.1.2 and 4.3 ROMs, and then choose custom ROM. The advantages are huge - if you get one with Note 3 features. I'm on Criskelo and battery life is the same, speed is the same and I have Note 3 apps - soo cool. Also then you can use Xposed modules like Wanam Exposed and XUI which are great....

4.3 = 4.1...

I no longer believe in upgrading the operating system in Android anymore. It's pointless and a waste of time.

Every time you buy a new phone, you basically get an Android upgrade, there is no point in getting android upgrade during that time.

People who constantly flash new roms just have too much time.
[Galaxy Note II General] Cocolopes:
Im on 4.4.2 stock leaked....and works great so far...I like all the note3 features...and kitkat its fast and smooth...I test all the roms out there...and Dnv4RC its the best I try...make a nandroid backup and test yourself...its the only way.

Cheers

If I were you I would really wait for official 4.4 release (probably next month) + Omega or DN3 (or your favorite rom) update with that base and do nothing until then.
[Galaxy Note II General] note2nooby:
Stay on 4.2.1. I regret updating. .. now stuck with Knox. On 4.2.1 you can install custom 4.4 roms.

hi everyone I sold my G2 to my friend cuz I wanted the white color. I'm thinking now of getting another phone not the white G2 but it seems that G2 is the best out there. I was thinking about the Gflex ? what do you think about this ? even with the new HTC and S5 and the Z2 I think G2 still the best. should I try the G flex or just get the white G2 ?

It's really a matter of size. The flex is bigger...but so it's the battery. I don't want another phone until they give me more in the same form factor.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tishna:
Hello.

i just wanted to know regarding any progress been made for frameroot, so that it can now root devices running 4.3 or not.

As i have Note 2 running 4.3, im willing to look forward for anu upcoming Update of Frameroot.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Baller231:
Downgrade from 4.3 to 4.1.2. I have done this with 100% Success :)

BACKUP everything. (Important)

Turn ON USB Debugging mode and Unknown sources.

First ROOT your phone.

(FOR N7100 Note 2 use CF-Auto root, here is the link.

http://download.chainfire.eu/264/CF-Root/CF-Auto-Root/CF-Auto-Root-t03g-t03gxx-gtn7100.zip

NOTE: Knox and Binary Counters will get Triggered and your Warranty will be VOID.

Donwload CF-Auto root to your computer. Then boot your phone into Download mode. Open Odin. Connect your phone to computer. Click PDA and load CF-Auto root and click Start button. Let the process finish and your phone will reboot. You will see SuperSU icon on your phone).

Open Playstore and Update SuperSU. Open SuperSU and it will give a message to disable KNOX. Click YES/Ok.

Then install Titanium backup root from Playstore. Open it, go to backup/restore tab.

Find,

1.com.sec.enterprise.knox.attestation

2.com.sec.knox.eventsmanager

3.KLMS Agent

4.KNOX

5.Knox Notification Manager

6.KNOX Store

Go to each one of it and Uninstall them.

Next restart your phone.

*VERY IMPORTANT* Now Backup your efs folder by using EFS Professional on you computer (Link: http://d-h.st/Gfo ). Because your imei number will be changed after downgrading. You can easily restore it later.

Now install Mobile Odin Pro from Playstore on your phone. Here is the link.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=eu.chainfire.mobileodin.pro

*IMPORTANT* DO NOT flash firmware for downgrading with Computer Odin as it will NOT work and it will FAIL. *ONLY Mobile Odin Pro from Playstore will work.

Copy your 4.1.2 firmware to your phone. Next Open Mobile Odin Pro on your phone and let it download some necessary files from internet.

When done, click on Open file and select the firmware. After loading the firmware scroll down and UNCHECK EverRoot (because it cause problems). Then click on FLASH Firmware.

*IMPORTANT* If your phone get stuck on samsung logo. Go into recovery mode by pressing Home+Power+Volume UP keys together for 15 seconds. Click Factory wipe/data and then Wipe Cache. Then Reboot.

Now check your imei by *#06#. If imei is changed then restore it from EFS Professional.

Baller231 what version of bootloader did you have on 4.3. Was it mk9?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Baller231:
I was on 4.3 XXUENA1. It was UAE version.

Now i'm on 4.1.2 XXDMC3

You can downgrade any Note 2 and S3 from 4.3 device to 4.1.2 as long as you have the Correct root files to root and firmware for your Specific Device Model. And follow the steps given above After rooting.

I edited the above post with some links and made it easy. Re-read it.

Hi,

I'm a big fan of mike1986's Revolution HD rooms, I have been using it for years on my HTC Sensation. Unfortunately the room is built for the international Note 2 N7100. Is there a way I can install Revolution HD room on the t-mobile Note 2?

Thanks,

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Coug76:
Not usually a good idea. If you do, don't flash a N7100 modem. You will likely have kernel issues as well. Don't be surprised if you have headaches.

YMMV.

Hastily spouted for your befuddlement
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] KSHAPE:
I did flash it earlier with the N7100 modem, and I ended up having no signal at all because of the baseband or kenel issue. I just thought there might be someone that make it work.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Coug76:
It was most likely the baseband/modem. Totally different bits of hardware. N7100 has a non LTE radio, the N7105 has LTE radio bits baked in. SGH-T889 is a variant of the N7105 (for those who may not be aware).

You could see what a port would entail. I'd bet it would be more or less straight forward.

How do you access PIE on Paranoid Android 4.2 beta ROM?
[Xperia SP General] selmane24:
A few days ago we informed readers that an Android 4.3 update that included some bug fixes was about to start rolling out for the Sony Xperia SP. French carrier SFR had announced that the firmware update to build 12.1.A.1.192 had been approved and would start rolling out later that day. This gave hope that the update would also arrive soon for other regions, but now the same carrier has confirmed that this Xperia SP update has been delayed.

This latest update will bring performance and stability improvements and it was hoped that it would also fix bugs from an earlier Android 4.3 update. Sadly the update failed to arrive as stated by SFR, and the carrier has now clarified the situation, saying that Sony has delayed the release by a month, pushing it back from March 21 to April 21. This is said to be because of an issue that Sony has identified.

At this stage we have no way of knowing whether the same update will eventually arrive or whether a new update will be certified, but we’ll be keeping a close eye on this and will keep you informed. We also recently reported on a petition that had been started to bring Android 4.4 to the Xperia SP, but this news about the latest 4.3 firmware update is bound to frustrate many Sony Xperia SP owners, especially those still plagued with problems from the earlier update.

[Xperia SP General] jishneo:

They are talking about a "FOTA" issue, Or at least that was what I read earlier

i think new version will be certified soon...;)
[Xperia SP General] pec0ra:
I think the carrier made a mistake between .166 and .192 . I have already heard about this carrier releasing updates long after official update. I think the one they were talking about was just the update from 4.1 to 4.3 ( I read the official post in French and it looked more like this )
[Xperia SP General] no_username_available:
as long as they give us a bug free update, they can take as long as they need
[Xperia SP General] ParaSense.:
... At least flickering have to be fixed in this delay.. :/
[Xperia SP General] zincir:
Oh man, first of all the first update was released too soon because they knew they were behind so they tried to repay or delay further anger of their users by releasing if earlier. And now this new update that should finally work properly will be released god knows when.

I've been on 4.1 for 3 years now, before SP on my former xperia. In a year from now I'm a getting a new phone because the contract allows me that. So basically I can only hope to play with my SP 4.3 for less than a year which is really sad, and I regret my decision chosing it. To me the android version is all there is to phones nowadays, they are just displays running software..

thats why samsung is 10 times better and is 1st on android mobile sales... but lets keep our rage and wait for update... and the w8 for kit kat (but i think they will never give us kitkat)
[Xperia SP General] Drakomord:
Thank you for your very constructive comment. :eek:

But, I don't like Samsung, because their design and plastic Samsung is not my thing... :rolleyes:

No doubt that Samsung makes better phones, but my heart beats for those of Sony.

Despite the problem of the updates, the rest is very good.

Sony him, has a very sober and simple purist modern design. And he keeps the aspect of Android AOSP with the touch of Sony. :angel:

Touchwiz is so... gayfriendly. Seriously, for my part.

I don't care of 4.4. If Sony can make the better 4.3 for the Xperia SP. I can skip KitKat. And if a day I want 4.4 for my Xperia SP, custom ROMs is here for that ! ;) :good:

Regards. :laugh:
[Xperia SP General] ParaSense.:
exactly! I dont like samsung for design to.. i was always ericsson> sony ericsson> sony.. btw i think 4.4 will give 25k antutu as it will improve performance a lot .. ofc i will be ok with a bug-free 4.3 .. till then im happy with xperia pureness 4.1.2 and doomkernel v4.. smooth and perfect in everything it makes me love my sp! i can play asphalt 8 with max graphics without a spike.. :D

i don't thnik that 4.4 will give 25k antutu score i tested many 4.4 cm based roms and none of them got higher than 23k
[Xperia SP General] ParaSense.:
i said that cause stock 4.1.2 gives me 21- 21.5 antutu.. official 4.3 gives me 23 - 23.500 (rooted with many apps closed and flickering bug ofc).. and there is no official 4.4 yet.. i think official kernel will do the job.. idk maybe im wrong
[Xperia SP General] Rui Oliveira 21:
Firmware needed

Kit Kat in Z1 gives lower results than 4.3, but overhall performance is way smoother =)

Btw, I bought a SP, unbranded, currently with 4.3 Global, I wonder, could you create a .ftf of 4.3 unbranded PT, or the previous firmware, if it has less bugs??

[Xperia SP General] silveraero:
What the hell?
[Xperia SP General] sourabhp:
new update is released. probably bug fix update
[Xperia SP General] MagicMagicD:
To be honest I'm not sure they can even lay claim to 'king of design' any more -- if you look at the latest handsets they've released ( Z1, Z1 Compact, Z2, M2, T2 Ultra ), they all follow a design theme that's extremely similar to the iPhone -- glass front, glass (or gloss plastic) back all in rounded rectangular metal or plastic frame.

It seems that the design (and the unique selling point it offered) started in 2012 with the Xperia S, P and U and carried in to their 2013 range with the Xperia L and SP -- the led bar -- is now a long distant memory, which is sad really as it was the one feature I know I really liked, and in fact convinced me to buy the Xperia U and then the Xperia SP.

If I wanted a phone that looked like an iPhone, there are plenty of other options, including the original. I think personally, I'll be looking elsewhere for my next phone, which is a shame as it will be the first non-Sony (Ericsson) phone I've owned in over ten years.
[Xperia SP General] Rui Oliveira 21:
I have a Z1 and it's beautifull, i like the design and I hope they keep it some more time!, really clean, sturdy and premium feel
[Xperia SP General] MagicMagicD:
I never said that Sony's new phones weren't beautiful or well designed, just that they have lost a number of things (the arched back from the Xperia Arc, the leds from the Xperia S, etc.) that made their handsets stand out from the competition.

Beautiful, sturdy and well designed are normally traits associated with Apple products, and whilst it's perfectly understandable that Sony are trying to emulate them, not everyone wants an iPhone.

In a world of glass and rounded rectangles, exactly what do they have now in terms of design that no-one else does -- they can't even say water and dust resistance any more?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Shoothy:
Asking for help on the forums is usually my last result, I can assure you. I've been at it all day now and I keep coming across the same answers and the same n/a issues.

I'm going to make this as easy as possible with the hope that some one out there will be able to help me. Because I hit my data limit and I can't even download a simple app from the Google Play Store.

My Problem: Wifi will not toggle on

My Phone (The current state of the status bar makes me cringe as well. I literally JUST got done with a factory reset)

A quick run through

1. The phone was running 4.3 when I bought it. (wifi worked)

2. I decided to root using CF-Auto Root (wifi worked)

3. I updated to 4.4.2 using the Samsung Kies (breaking my root of course)

4. I re-rooted with CF-Auto Root and flashed the latest TWRP

5. A few days later, I turned on WiFi for the first time and it instantly switched itself back off.

I'm positive I flashed all the correct stuff. I do my research before voiding my warrenty.

(for 4.4.2, I flashed the latest CF-Auto-Root-jfltetmo-jfltetmo-sghm919.tar.md5 with Odin v3.09. Afterwards, openrecovery-twrp-2.7.0.1-jfltetmo.tar)

Solutions I've tried:

-Reboot

-Took out the battery

-a few other little modifications I did in root explorer

-Factory reset

If you've any questions about what I've done or any suggestions for things to try, please let me know. I would like to avoid flashing a custom ROM for the time being.

Thank you in advance for any help!

A few deleted apps using Titanium Backup later, and my phone can't do the phone part anymore. Tried flashing ftf's in flashtool to no avail, and just want a way to have full functionality of the handset again.

Have the following downloaded :

Check with Topps to make sure the parts are available before you send you KJAM in for the warranty repairs on the stylus.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] JoninLA:
Is it just me? Why return it under warranty for the stylus problem. The problem generally occurs after about three months wear and as far as I have seen with colleagues units it happens to almost every unit. As the fix is as simple as putting a small piece of paper to press onto the bit of plastic that holds the stylus and takes about a minute to do (tops) why go without your unit for a days, weeks etc on a point of principle? Maybe I'm missing something
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] texasez:
The paper trick never worked very well for me and the back plate needed to be replace as well. I also have a audiovox 5600 backup phone. My biggest mistake was assuming it would be fixed in the 10 day time frame that Imate promised. I should have know they would screw me somehow.

As far as the suggestion for a new phone, I asked that Imate send a replacement but that would not be in character for Imate.

Been waiting for today but now I don't know which phone to get lol.

I haven't used Sense since the Evo 4G and didn't really care for it, so I'm not sure if I'll like the new version or not. I'm wondering if I get the Verizon model, can I just install the GPE rom to get vanilla android? Obviously once the phone is rooted and all that jazz. I've never owned a phone that had a GPE edition so I don't know if you can flash the GPE rom on the non-GPE version...
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Frankie1588:
There is a good chance we will see GPE ROMs if we get root. The Verizon M7 did.

Or you can just install nova launcher or the Google play launcher until someone develops a GPE rom
