[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soundl3ss:
Hey Xda,

I'm certainly not a newbie to flashing/modding but this one puzzles me quite a bit:

Today I got a Galaxy Note from a good friend of mine, the device is still running on stock ROM and has never been rooted.

When I try to boot up the device you'll hear the usual boot sound and after a while the softkeys backlights will light up, while the screen won't. My friend reported to me that he had issues in the past connecting the device to any given windows PC, as they won't even recognize the device. I however can't verify this as I'm using arch Linux on almost all of my workstations.

The main objectives are:

- backing up the entire internal storage, because my friend produces music and there are lots of samples/unfinished tracks on this device

-eventually get this device working again.

The main problem is deciding whether the device has defective hardware or just somehow screwed up firmware.

The gameplan so far is backing the device up via adb if nothing else is working and then reflash the whole damn thing, if there is still no improvement I guess the hardware is to blame.

Any constructive advices on your end? It would be much appreciated as this seems to be a fairly common problem. Anyways I'll keep you up to date
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nokiamodeln91:
Are there any touch haptic responses on the screen? Then this could be an issue of corrupt or wrong bootloader installed.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Azeazezar:
Try booting into recovery and/or download mode.

And check for a battery icon while charging and off.

A problem with the boot loader on stock android without even root sounds unlikely.

If the screen stays black, i thinks its very likely that the connector from the display came loose.

lucky you, the note is not that hard to take apart, and the connection should snap back in no problem. In fact, i think that should be stap one, check the connection.

About connecting to the pc, that could be more difficult. From the description i think the usb board is in need of replacement. Also a relatively common, cheap and easy fix, but make sure you get the same revision as the one you have now.

---------- Post added at 02:05 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:49 AM ----------

Another idea would be to connect an mhl cable and use that to see what should be on the screen. This depends on the usb port being fine, but may be worth trying anyway.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soundl3ss:
So for the purpose of continuity I'll post any useful links I used along the way.

At first I'll back the device up. This will be no problem as adb works just fine on my Linux box with this device. The next step would be trying this:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=25202942&postcount=7

If that does not work I'm assuming defective hardware/or bad connection due to dust. I'll disassemble the device like this:

http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=N6CJy7...kZ4-Yg&usg=AFQjCNGp378LsVHTIBkf62THSVDqsWM7uQ

And clean up the connector/ribbon plug with isopropyl alcohol

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Junaid1460:
if you are getting charging animation

or galaxy note logo on bootup

then you need to flash an alternate kernel or reflash original

else forsure there's something went wrong with your hardware

Reserved just because :silly:
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] tdunham:
Great guide.

Can't wait to see it in action. :)
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] AxAtAx:
Aewsome, this is great, thanks @rompnit, great work!:good::good: Out of thanks, be back shortly, I got to do this mod here real quick....:D
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] AxAtAx:
worked on both S5 and Note3...rocking now...thanks. Nice work...?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] rainabba:
Great guide, thank you!

In theory, someone that has this working on a stock (rooted of course) NCG build could share the modded files to save others the more sensitive and tricky work right? If so, anyone willing to share those files? Haven't touched bs in a couple years now ☺
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Versatile1:
Know of any other bool or setting that would be preventing this from working?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] rompnit:
Could double check framework-res for

<bool name="config_animateScreenLights">true</bool>

Make sure it's indeed set to 'true'.

What firmware/device are you modding?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Versatile1:
S5 DEV edition G900VOYU1ANCG

services.jar is almost identical as retail.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] rompnit:
Did you check that bool? Get it worked out?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Versatile1:
Checked the bool, still a no go. I probably fat fingered it
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] rompnit:
My apologies.. I excluded the interfaces in the guide.. :crying: The OP has been updated, but here's what was added:

ADD the lines in RED right at the top

.class final Lcom/android/server/power/DisplayPowerController;
.super Ljava/lang/Object;
.source "DisplayPowerController.java"

[COLOR="Red"]# interfaces
.implements Landroid/animation/Animator$AnimatorListener;[/COLOR]

# annotations

Let me know if this does it? If not PM me your services ;)

Any tips?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] tdunham:
Pull a logcat while it happens to narrow it down.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] rompnit:
Found the issue with rotation and this mod. It was the screen on animator... The OP has been updated to reflect the change ;)

Is there a way to push this through ODIN to a device on stock?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] tdunham:
See my reply in one of the other threads you posed this question.

You cannot odin mods anyway.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] ocoot:
this guide will work on aosp device? thx
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] tdunham:
Hard to say. It is based on the touchwiz 4.4.2 that the Galaxy S5 is using.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] ocoot:
ok already try it. got looping on boot animation

can you see my log and give me the solution? i'll attach my services.jar original too
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] tdunham:
I see null pointer exceptions in your log.

More than likely, you need to change the registers in the mod to match the surrounding code of your rom.

Rompnit uploaded diff files to compare so what I would do is open them up, see where he made his changes and you're going to have to figure out how your surrounding code is similar (but with different register values) and match up registers.

There are two places in the guide you definitely need to address this... this part:

iput-object v0, p0, Lcom/android/server/power/DisplayPowerController;->mPowerState:Lcom/android/server/power/DisplayPowerState;

[COLOR="Red"]const v4, 0x2
[/COLOR]
iget-object v0, p0, Lcom/android/server/power/DisplayPowerController;->mPowerState:Lcom/android

and also the part he added on 08/03 that is highlighted in red in the guide.

Using the example above, I can pretty much guarantee that you're going to have to change v4 to some other value.

Same goes for v2, v3 & v4 in the 08/03 add-on.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] ocoot:
ok thanks you. will try it
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] bombaybadboy:

[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] thisisapoorusernamechoice:
Wow this is awesome. As someone who is just starting to get the feel for smali editing this guide was perfect. Confirmed working on my Galaxy S4 Active i537 running NE3. Thanks so much man, this was a fun little mod to do, you rock :)
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] t-ryder:
I would love to have this in MIUI v6.

Unfortunately I am not experienced enough to handle this, beacause the smalis are way to different.

If there is anybody advanced enough pls have a look. I don't know if this is too complicated or it is too much to ask for.... seems tough to me.

I tried it but get various errors when recompiling.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tss01:
Hello,

I sure could use some help here! I just upgraded to BajaROM 16 in my stock rom slot. All was fine until I did a boneheaded thing. I wanted to go into recovery to attempt to install another ROM in slot 1 so by mistake I clicked on "recovery" in the drop screen that also has the restart and shut down buttons. Now I appear to be in a endless loop trying to find recovery. I have no idea what to do now. I tried doing the three button approach but nothing happened. I have pulled the battery and waited a few minutes but as soon as I re-start the phone, I get that damn "Recovery Reboot" message again on the top left side of the screen.

Any ideas?

Thanks!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] silentbenton:
I'm in the same boat, phone has been constantly rebooting for the last 12 hours and I can't figure out how to make it work again...
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bizack:
same boat here.

edit...

Resolved...
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] strider5236:
I have encountered this as well. I fixed it by Odin flashing the modem back to the phone. Once flashed, it rebooted and I had Safestrap and my rom back. Just be sure you flash the right modem file as the wrong one will brick your phone. I have done that in the past as well.:(
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tdamore:
What was the resolution? I'm in the same boat and can't get ODIN to recognize the phone.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bizack:
Whoa, Odin wont recognize the phone in download mode?

vol dn + home & Power?

You need to not use USB3, switch USB ports, change cables, if your computer wont recognize switch computers.

Open up Kies3 and re-install drivers.

Many options, try them all, don't give up. It your shot won't even turn on, then take that **** back!!!

What IO did to achieve salvation...

I flashed NC4, Rooted using towl root, then busy box and Safe Strapped flashed the NC2 kernel and bamm(no relation) back on Baja16....

(there is a process, please don't follow the steps above, go here...)
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spatterson:
I was in the same boat...

I was also rebooting into recovery mode over and over again after my first boot up of the recent Baja and rebooting into Recovery after updating to the new version of SS.

The only thing I could do was pull the battery and it would do again. I read the above about updating the modem, but unsure what that was, I tried rebooting into download mode again. From here, instead of hitting UP VOLUME to continue, I hit DOWN VOLUME and low and behold, I got the baja flash and it booted up my phone again.

PHEW!

Just thought I'd share what worked for me...
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BigHoss3:
what am i doing wrong i did the root methods and setup the safestrap(3.75) and have been trying all evening to install bigginsRom+v6. i go thru all the steps and when i hit continue for it to reboot it just dies and does nothing. i have to pull the battery and get it back to safestrap and reinstall the stock rom. i am supposed to set it up on slot 1 instead of stock right?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BigHoss3:
downloaded another rom and tried it in another slot and the same thing. the only one i can get to load is the stock backup. anything else it just goes black and does nothing. have to pull the battery to even get it to power back on

Follow these directions to the letter.

First ting is figure out where you are at and use the correct method to get your s**T back up and running...

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] pcrussell50:
i thought google was allowing google wallet "tap and pay" on all NFC-enabled devices running kitkat. well, my note 2 (at&t of course), is rooted, running CM11 kitkat, with google wallet installed, and i can't seem to find any evidence at all that "tap and pay" available anywhere in the google wallet app.

little help?

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] 06SilveradoZ71:
It works on ota 4.4.2
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] pcrussell50:
just flashed 4.4.4 (liquid smooth) to my sgh-i317 and? nada... no tap and pay for google wallet. anyone know how to get this working?

-peter
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] pcrussell50:
I'm a bit stunned that xda developers has so little knowledge about this...

So now I unrooted and went back to total stock, with at&t's latest 4.4.2. And tap and pay is up and working.

Back to my question...

I thought tap and pay was supposed to work with all kit Kat phones. Yet it doesn't seem to work with aosp kit kat roms, (at least the ones I've tried). Is that right?

-Peter
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Zen Arcade:
1. Do these roms have an option in settings or notify bar to turn NFC on? Does the NFC icon then show up on the status bar?

2. Have you installed Google Wallet app from Play store and configured to enable tap & pay?

If you answered yes to all questions and tap & pay still doesn't work, check out this guide:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2448712

It's for 4.3 but there may be some things in there to try .... ymmv
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] pcrussell50:
Your questions in order:

1) CM11 had a "turn on tap and pay", setting. It did nothing. I frankly forgot to check of Liquid Smooth had it. It was a VERY nice 4.4.4 AOSP rom. For sure, Google Wallet tap and pay was not only not working, it was not even available. There was no NFC logo that appeared.

2) yes, I've only ever installed GW from the play store. And what I finally found out when I got tap and pay working on the stock unrooted att 4.4.2 rom was that Google wallet did not even offer the option to set up tap and pay in the 4.4.4 aosp roms. In fact, it was not even showing as grayed out. It was not even mentioned at all. If you were not a savvy smart phone type, you'd never even know gw ever offered tap amd pay or that such a thing even existed. But now with this new stock rom, it just shows up in gw and was easy peasy to configure.

Thanks for pitching in. It has partly renewed my faith in xda. Googljng outside xda I have seen slivers of evidence that aosp roms need patches to do hce, or at least the 4.3 ones do.

That's real odd that your external sd is completely empty... But you should set your camera to add pictures to external then move your existing pics to there. Then there's the obvious"remove all the bloat". Check the thread on that...

[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bakageta:
Since you're already rooted and (I assume) running a custom recovery, there's a somewhat easy solution for this. First, back up everything from the internal memory located at /sdcard, and copy it all over to whatever physical SD card you plan on using - I went with a 64gb. This is probably fastest if you just back up all of /sdcard to the pc, and use some kind of card reader to transfer it over, you'll get much better speed, but you can do this all over MTP with the usb cable if you don't have a reader. Next, reboot into recovery and flash this kernel, which among other things adds support for a storage swap. Clear the cache for good measure, this won't affect any user data. Reboot, and using a terminal emulator or adb shell, run the following command:

su
setprop persist.customboot.sdcard internal

Reboot once more, and you'll find your physical sdcard is now mounted as /sdcard, while the internal is mounted as /.sdcard (which virtually nothing will use, but that's fine). Any large games you install should put their data in /sdcard/Android/obb, or /sdcard/Android/data, or just random folders on /sdcard, all of which are now your physical card. Once you've finished the swap, you'll want to delete most/all of the files on /.sdcard, since everything there directly uses space in /data/media. Now the only thing that will eat up your internal memory are actual .apk files.

This does have one downside, the storage interface in settings doesn't really know what to think of the mod. It will claim you only have 8gb internal, but then show the free space available on the physical card. If you've got more than 8gb of stuff on the card the bar graph is completely useless, but at least the text does show the correct free amount. I've currently got around 20gb of misc games installed and working great, however if you have any Humble Bundle games keep in mind that these don't use .obb files and the larger ones will quickly eat up your internal space with gigantic .apk files.

You might also want to disable zram once you flash the new kernel. It compresses ram that's not actively being used, effectively giving you more ram at the cost of cpu/battery. I find we have plenty of ram and I'd rather have longer battery life. As root, the command is:

setprop persist.service.zram 0

You'll need a reboot after running it, of course, but you can enable the sd card swap and disable zram at the same time, rebooting only once.

This is probably the most transparent method, once it's set up you won't need to manually move new apps as you install them, and you don't need to worry about apps that write to random locations on the sdcard.
