Eagerly waiting

Am eagerly awaiting the new Flexburst ROM for my 5100.

Currently running 2.1 of previous Flex ROM.... I have the KK boatloader but there is terrible lag and the ROM is super slow.

Tried the Stock kernel but then WIFI doesn't work.

So hoping the new Flexburst solves all my problems and I don't have to move to a AOSP ROM. Coz I like some of the Spen features that I dont want to lose.

But thanks for the great work Civato.... You've kept life in my 8.0
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] mbaier:
stuck on samsung logo . md5 check pass . but no way to run this rom ,same thing is with CivZ-FLEXNOTE-8.0 .any advice or help ??
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] Megamind08:
Flash 5.1 kernel
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] shohratshankar:
Thanks a lot. I did that and found it much better. Though still not as smooth as KK should be.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] Megamind08:
I was facing the same problem with 5.4 then I did clean wipe and instead of pressing restart device option in aroma, I went back to recovery and flashed 5.1.. Now its running smooth but of course not as smooth as stock kitkat should be. After all its TouchWiz base with lot of extras from Samsung that you won't find on stock ROM.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] Sczar:
The same thing happened to me. What I did is downloaded a new copy of the file and then wiped everything in recovery and then flashed the file. Now its working.

I've been having music-skipping-while-screen-is-off issues with Rev2.1. Did anyone experience this in 2.1, and if so, has 3.0 improved things? Or any tips on other ways of fixing this? I'm a bit intimidated by all the settings in synapse.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] glockman4519:
Running super smoothly. It just gets better and better.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] mickael91210:
Thanks... I did a full wipe, and I haven't anymore the problem at boot with inconsistent UI....

But how can I disable rotation on lock screen?

Thanks
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] glockman4519:
Do you mean how to enable lock screen rotation? Mine does not rotate in lock screen . Now if you want the lockscreen to rotate just open Xblast, which is an option in the aroma installer, choose XlockY option and All the way at the bottom is "enable rotation".

Also in Synapse I only adjust max CPU and nothing else. I usually run at 1.8ghz maximum CPU and leave minimum setting where it is, 200.

Must have kit kat bootloader installed with Odin.

Must get right download for your device.

Must use latest Philz Touch custom recovery.

Must do full wipe of everything except external SD.

This is what I do and no issues, ever. Just follow OP to the T.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] ramjet73:
For the wipe step, the easiest way to do that is to use the "prepare for new ROM" wipe option in Philz recovery. It's very important that you do a "clean" flash for the first installation of a new ROM.

ramjet73
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] mbaier:
tnx buddy .as I said I'm new . can you explain more specifically .for example .where can I download kitkat bootloader in tar ?

what you mean "right download for device " ( if you think about region or country my country (Croatia) isn't on the list so I was downloaded Greece because it's say EUR .

I was install and try many of Philz Touch but...nothing .So if you can tell me right version of Philz Touch for kitkat ( link would be great )

I know I'm pain in the ass ...but :fingers-crossed:
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] ramjet73:
There is a bunch of new 4.4.2 firmware for the Note 8.0 recently posted at sammobile.com.

I suggest you flash the entire stock 4.4.2 ROM, which includes the bootloader, for your country (CSC codes are listed here, use this app to display the current one for your device) or the one that matches your stock ROM with Odin as documented in the instructions on the sammobile.com website and then flash the "tar" version of Philz recovery with Odin. You might want to make a NANDroid backup in Philz before flashing this ROM just so you have a copy of the stock unrooted ROM. If you ever need to go back to stock you can restore that backup and then flash the stock recovery with Odin.

You can find Philz recovery by going to the highest level of the XDA Note 8.0 forums and then doing an advanced search for "philz" in titles only. Even though you're new now is the time to learn how to find things for yourself.

[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] mbaier:
tnx. but nothing . This tablet is some Korean version , for for Asia market . Odin mod is on that Chinese symbols , not letter . But on this app and on device clearly say gt-n5110 . but..if is the problem in Asian version , don't understand how I can (and ave now) install civiato 4.2.2 . crap...
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] ramjet73:
Then I think you need to ask the person that sold it to you.

ramjet73
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] mach281:
ramjet,

You sound like you will know the answer to a couple questions I had:

Will installing the official Samung ROM unroot a presently rooted device?

Will a current install of Philz survive the install or must it be re-installed?

Thanks.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] ramjet73:
Assuming you are talking about flashing an "official" Samsung ROM from sammobile.com using Odin the answer is yes and no(+yes). Flashing those ROM images will replace both the system partition, which causes root to be lost, and the recovery partition with the signed (by Samsung) stock versions of those .img files.

The reason I say "official" is that the images on sammobile.com are not maintained by Samsung and the only way to get a truly official image is through Kies, but that only lets you upgrade your current version.

ramjet73
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] rtiangha:
This one's easy; I''l answer it.

If you flash the official stock Samsung Roms using Odin, then you will lose your root and recovery and you'll need to re-root using CF-Root and reinstall Philz recovery after (and you will trigger the Knox flag by doing so). But at least your boot loader will be updated to the official KitKat version and you can continue to use Civato's newer custom Roms and kernels.

There are some flashable zips of the stock Samsumg KitKat version floating around these forums somewhere (one of them is already pre-rooted, although it didn't work for me and I ended up having to re-flash SuperSU after anyways); flashing those through Philz will get you up to 4.4.2 but they won't upgrade your boatloader and WiFi won't work unless you use one of Civato's older custom kernels (but at least your Knox flag won't be triggered). The choice is yours.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] ramjet73:
The bottom line is that once you've flashed the KitKat 4.4.2 bootloader you will trip the KNOX flag by flashing any unsigned (by Samsung) .img file. If you are really lucky you might be able to get root on the stock ROM using a kernel exploit without tripping the KNOX flag (I managed to do that on an S5 by downgrading to an older signed kernel) but that's about it. So if you want to run this or any other custom ROM, or even just flash a custom recovery to do a NANDroid backup, you are going to trip the KNOX flag and kiss your warranty goodbye once you have upgraded to the 4.4.2 bootloader.

Edit: I just wanted to add that you don't need to use CF-AutoRoot to root since you can flash the ".tar" version of Philz with Odin and then either flash a rooted ROM (like this one) or flash a superuser app to the stock ROM. Most people find that easier than using CF-AutoRoot. Really the only reason to use CF-AutoRoot is if you just want to root the stock ROM since it restores the stock recovery when it is finished but it still trips the KNOX flag when the 4.4.2 bootloader is installed because it uses its own unsigned custom recovery to root.

ramjet73
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] mach281:
Think I've got it. I'm not concerned about KNOX at this point. But I've been searching for the KK bootloader and the only file I've found is from civato (but not from this thread) labeled for the n5100 here. It has 3 tar files - the boot icons, the boot loader, and the modem. Since I have the n5110 would this be compatible? Do all three tars have to be installed?

Thanks.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] ramjet73:
Up to you, but if you are not worried about the 4.4.2 bootloader I suggest flashing the complete 4.4.2 image file from the sammobile.com website and then you can flash a custom recovery in Odin after that and get a NANDroid backup of an unrooted stock ROM. From there you will be ready to flash whatever you want.

That's how I did my upgrade to 4.4.2.

ramjet73
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] Kamepa:
Because I would like to update my bootloader too I still have some questions:

- What is the advantage of flashing the complete 4.4.2 image and not only the new bootloader? ( In the old thread i could find a link to the kitkat boatloader (https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=14961)

- When I flash the bootloader only will the result be a factory reset, unroot the phone and delete the custom recovery as when flashing the whole image?
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] ramjet73:
I always like to have a NANDroid of a completely stock unrooted image around so I can use it for testing things like Miracast when they don't work on custom ROM's. I also feel more comfortable updating all the partitions to the same release at one time since I've seen many problems doing it in bits and pieces on other devices.

Flashing the entire 4.4.2 image will update the data partition but not the external SD card, but I always take it out anyway just to be safe. AFAIK flashing just the bootloader should not reset data, unroot the system partition or affect a custom recovery (it doesn't on other devices) but I haven't actually done that on my N5110.

ramjet73
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] Kamepa:
Thank you for your explanation. I', always a bit anxious and careful when I'm flashing and want to understand, what I'm doing.

Can I flash stock kitkat rom with mobile odin? So that I can have the kk bootloader?TIA for answering
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] ramjet73:
I haven't tried that but IIRC that method was used to upgrade everything else but the bootloader to stock KitKat 4.4.2.

You can only update the bootloader in download mode, so the answer is no, you need to use the PC based Odin or Heimdall to get the bootloader upgraded to 4.4.2.

ramjet73
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] glockman4519:
Yes I have seen that several times and it's not the tablet " Odin on that Chinese symbols, not letters", it's the download of Odin you have. Keep serching this thread and you find a version of Odin that will open in English and work for you.

Or better yet, in troubleshooting section you can find it. Also do Google search for Odin for GT-N5110.

Hope this helps. I don't want to clutter the thread with bootloader how too's. Good luck.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] ramjet73:
We probably need a separate Q&A thread for FlexBurst like there was for FLexNote, since I'm sure there will be a lot of bootloader related questions now that an upgrade to the 4.4.2 version is required, or at least strongly recommended.

[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] mach281:
Your solution made sense to me. But I am running into a problem. I tried 2 rooted stock roms, the first one being Flexburst which keeps giving an error during the creating symlinks stage with "set_metadata_recursive: some changes failed". It doesn't boot fully after that, just opens on the Model name screen then reboots back into recovery . The second one won't install at all. I downloaded the files several times with different browsers. and each dl of the same file gave the consistant MD5 which was not the same as what was posted but that is nothing new in my experience in dling from Androidfilehost.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] k9time:
Try eWeatherHD.. it is a pay app but has a killer widget that you can make transparent. .
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] ramjet73:
I've never had a problem matching the MD5 of the file on my device to the one on AFH (see attached screenshot) but that definitely sounds like your problem.

You could try downloading from the Mega link to see if you can get the correct MD5.

[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] mach281:
Interesting, you've helped me discover that the app I was using to calculate MD5 isn't calculating those files correctly. I've now verified with a different app that the file I've been downloading is good after all. It turns out that I was using an outdated PhilZ Touch 5 recovery which caused the installs to fail. I have now upgraded to v6 and it installed fine.

Thanks for helping me troubleshoot!

[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] mohitgarg:
Hi, I a have a T-Mobile P769 and my issue pertains to unlocking and achieveing a non-inverted (non-mirrored) recovery.

Here is what I have done so far:

1. Unlocking

Using kuma's guide: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2601480&highlight=recovery, I was been able to unlock the bootloader, load his themed ROM and have the non-mirrored screen, non-mirrored recovery and touch fixed.

Lets, call this State 1:

kuma's themed ROM - kumakan 3.4
non-mirrored logo
non-mirrored CWM 0.0.4.5 Touch
non-mirrored system
fixed touchscreen
unlocked bootloader
rooted

However I think the non-mirrored recovery is a 2nd-init recovery and my original recovery is also present, correct?

Because I didn't like the ROM and wanted to move to CM 11 for my device I proceeded to step 2 below.

2. Installing CM 11 - First attempt

I flashed this ROM: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2728404, from the non-mirrored ROM, and got error, "Status 7", which I believe was because of an older recovery or 2nd-init recovery?

3. Installing CM 11 - Second attempt

Anyhow, I rebooted and got a dead android with a read triangle. I then proceeded to use Lelus' tool: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2292828 to get to fastboot and flash CWM 6.0.4.8.

This recovery was however mirrored, I then flashed the CM 11 ROM, which flashed successfully along with the required GApps.

Let's call this State 2:

CM 11 - 20140902
non-mirrored logo
mirrored CWM 6.0.4.8 non-toruch
non-mirrored system
wonky touchscreen
unlocked bootloader
rooted

3. Fixing toushcreen

So to fix the messed up touchscreen I booted into recovery, and flashed Lelus' "Fix_Touch-V20F.zip", what this did was give me another dead android and again I had to flash recovery using Lelus' fastboot.

I then used this method: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=39268215&postcount=24 to fix the issue but the path the sdcard was incorrect for the CM 11 setup, which I change to "/storage/sdcard1/" from "/sdcard/external_sd/" and now the touch was fixed.

Let's call this State 3:

CM 11 - 20140902
non-mirrored logo
mirrored CWM 6.0.4.8 non-touch
non-mirrored system
fixed touchscreen
unlocked bootloader
rooted

4. Fixing recovery

Now, my issue is that the recovery is mirrored and I have noticed if I enter recovery and even if I don't do anything in it except just reboot, then the touchscreen becomes wonky again.

I want to know if there is anyway to have the recovery non-mirrored as well as have the touchscreen fixed once and for all permanently. Or is this not possible?

Issue fixed, using modded recovery based on [MENTION=4447066]kuma82[/MENTION]'s work and hints.

I installed the CWM 6.0.4.8 No-Touch that I modded (Can be found here) and then flashed the "cwm_ts_fix_p769.zip", now no issue, can use recovery perfectly normal and no more worky screen. Yey!

State 4 achieved:

Let's call this State 3:

CM 11 - 20140902
non-mirrored logo
non-mirrored CWM 6.0.4.8 non-touch
non-mirrored system
fixed touchscreen
unlocked bootloader
rooted
