[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bleek78:
Hey everyone, 1st off thanks to all the great people here that take there time to help and give back, much love and respect!

So i have a Note 2, i was using it last night, and it just froze! So i waited and waited, nothing! I tried to power down, nothing, so i popped the battery out and it restarted and stayed at "Samsung Galaxy Note II"

I tried many many times to restart and power down, still come back to the same result!

My phone is:

Note 2 SGH-T899V (wind mobile)

I downloaded odin v3.09, i loaded samsung drivers, i downloaded T889VVLUDNE7 from sammobile.

I put phone in download mode, attached cable loaded file from odin(clicked and unclicked all the correct boxes) and everything "Passed" on odin

Phone reset and got stuck again on Samsung screen. So i

Pull out the battery, wait for about 1 minute and then put the battery back in its place.

Boot the device into Stock Recovery mode by holding down Volume Up, Center(menu) button and Power keys till the Samsung logo appears.Use the volume keys to scroll and power keys to select recovery menu options.

From the menu, wipe data by selecting wipe data/factory reset option followed by wipe cache partition. Finally reboot the system by selecting reboot system now.

and still it is stuck in Samsung screen.

I then installed CWM 6.4.3 with no problems, went into recovery wiped user and cache and installed zip from sd card. It would try and then "INSTALLATION ABORTED"

Re Downloaded zip tried again, same thing "INSTALLATION ABORTED"

Flashed CF Auto root, then went into recovery and tried to install from zip and "signature verification failed"

flashed CWM again, tried install "installation aborted"

Guys where am i going wrong, or what step did i miss? Please help!!!

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sachin-sharma:
Actually I dont own this device so I dont know which firmware version are they ..... any chance you have flashed knox bootloader and these firmware don't have know?

And you can only flash zip files in recovery and I think you are trying to flash .tar file using recovery?? Thats y it is not getting flashed..... do this download any latest custom rom zip and flash it via recovery it will surely fix your issues
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pokamonNereid:
to what i know it would take some time for a newly flashed android device to boot out of boot logo.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bleek78:
[MENTION=6036893]sachin-sharma[/MENTION] the firmwares are all the stock versions for that phone from the original all the way to 4.4.2 and i downloaded from sam mobile site. I do believe the phone does have knox bootloader is there a way for me to disable knox or remove it or work around it?

[MENTION=5643428]pokamonNereid[/MENTION] thanks for replying, i've let it sit there and after flash for an hour and still nothing, how long do i need to let it sit for?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sachin-sharma:
Just download custom recovery and download custom rom of 4.4.2 and flash via recovery and ur fone will boot up for sure

Most probably u have upgraded ur fone with knox bootloader and now trying to flash non-know enabled firmware or older version know bootloader firmware.... there is no way yet to remove knox bootloader so u need to flash latest firmware using recovery either stock deodexed zip or any custom rom
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bleek78:
[MENTION=6036893]sachin-sharma[/MENTION] i have tried twrp and cwm for custom recovery and both fail with the newest firmware. What is "stock deodexed zip" ?

I have a htc one m8 AT&T version. It is completely stock but i plan to unlock and flash soon. my question is a firmware based question. My phone has 4.4.2 kitkat and software version 1.58.502.1 (firmware version?). Which rom will work with my firmware version?

[AT&T HTC One (M8)] redpoint73:
Neither link is going to help you. You want a software 1.xx based ROM, but you will see the first thread you linked just goes to the 2nd link (if you look under the "Download section" it refers you to the main thread, which only has links to 2.xx based ARHD).

Either you will need to find an older version of ARHD (either previously posted, or ask for it) or update your firmware. Really, the 2nd option is preferable as you will find that most ROMs have moved on and require the newer firmware.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] eubie999:
I have to start by telling you I am not only a Newbe I am a NO-Knowbee, a complete novice. I am an advanced computer user but smart phones make me fell stupid. So please bear that in mind when offering "how to" advice.

I bought this phone 3 weeks ago as Rooted. I think is was rooted but SuperSU will not start. I get a message that the SU Binary need to be updated. I have two choices. NORMAL which fails and the other is TWRP/CWM which does nothing either but suggests I manually reboot into recovery manually. I have no idea what to do.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Matttrix:
Nice mess there ... maybe others have better opinion here but .. the question would be to fine out what version of android you have (aka like windows xp, 7, 8/8.1 etc) then from that point I would almost want to start over ..

Some people have differ opinions on this but my opinion is to start over and re-root the phone. Either they failed on the unlocking boot loader or something and just decided to sell it. (in windows terms they basically corrupted everything).

So the question comes down to is being able to put on custom roms? Depending circumstances you can unlock the boot loader and then install any custom rom (modified OS made for that specific phone, you cant just put anything it has to be made for this phone etc..)

Next question if you can live without going through that (different roms) and want to stick with stock (whats already on the phone) and just want root, then the my opinion would be to just redo everything then re-root it fresh.

Theres a program called Odin that you would use and you would need the stock file to which is currently on your phone and you would need to download it (the file is usually about over a GB in size) and you would need to do that. However telling you how to do that here while its simple this is something you need to read and learn about. Its just like finding tweaks and tips on windows. There's a EXCELLENT help section here and I HIGHLY recommend you read and read more and more. Its like potato chips you cant eat just one. Good luck.

Hey,

Today I had some problems with the Google Play, so i reflashed the GApp.zip and then things got messed up.

So I made a full reset and reflashed Rom and GApps and since then every time i turn on my device, nothing works and i just get the message:

"Encryption Failed"

I have already had that problem a month ago, but now the solution isn't working.

How can I make my phone work again ?

I was having a discussion with a few friends about what makes the design of a mobile app useful or pleasant to use?

I would like to get some other opinions about it
[General Topics] Stuart Little:
Design is really important for me and for many other people.

You're doesn't need instantly to be high-good designed if you're app is unique ( app that doesn't exist with the same concept yet ) unless you want to be the concept holder like Candy Crush/King.com is with beyeweld games.

Design can make you unique and can even deliver you ten thousands of loyal app users when you have a super designed internet browser ( that's easy to code but hard to good design, based on your creativity ) .

When you're new to the app universe is it important to release a stable version with an High-Tier app design.

It is important to distinguish yourself from others.

Hello everyone,

First off I changed the lcd on this vs980. I have changed numerous screens on these with no problem. The VS980 still turns on, lcd and digi respond and work. But the phone will freeze up and seems to turn off leaving you with only the option to turn it back on. This happens everytime its booted up. The periods it stays on ranges from 5 - 30 seconds. I have checked the board and all connectors. Everything is clean and no problems with connectors or board components. I have reset the phone to factory a few times as well.

I have a youtube video of it performing this shut down. Unable to post the link due to not being active on the forum long enough. Maybe I can message you the link.

Or it comes up immediately if you search on youtube for " LG G2 VS980 Crashes Shortly After Booting Up "

Thanks to anyone who has information. I would be so happy to learn more about this problem.

Thanks

[General Questions and Answers] WhaleWithWings:
So here's my issue, I was having a recurring problem where parts of Service Mode wouldn't work on my S2 T989. No matter the firmware version(GB, 4.0.3, 4.1.2), the same glitch kept popping up: a black screen for #*9090# and other service mode menus (though others worked) with a small message on the bottom saying something about using the hard menu key (I forgot exactly, can't get back to it any more). So I untarred a 4.0.3 image (which is what was installed at the time) and used ADB to replace serviceModeApp.apk and serviceModeApp.odex in /system/apps/ with the one from the untarred file.

Now the screen is black when I boot up except for the status bar, which I can see but can't drag down, no matter the firmware or how many times I flash it. I even used TWRP to do an advanced wipe and wipe /system/ and I still have the same problem after flashing another ROM! Why aren't the files being replaced? I only have serviceModeApp.odex backed up in the internal memory and not serviceModeApp.apk, but none of that even matters because I can't get into the OS to install SuperSU and ASDB Insecure. I have no idea what's going on, I thought a firmware wipe was supposed to replace everything.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

What is the best performing ROM for the 8GB Nook Tablet? I'm looking for most snappy navigating the interface, fastest loading of apps, quickest to download updates, best usage of the WiFi, and most stable.

I have CM11 M9 installed on my 8GB Nook Tablet and it is sluggish. I noticed that as soon as I turn on my WiFi, the system begins to crawl and I have to wait about 15-20 minutes before the interface is stable and responsive.

I've used CM7 on a SD card and liked it, but of course I was limited to the bus speeds of the SD card (SanDisk 16GB Class 6). The other concern with older CM builds is app support by Google Play.

Any recommendations are welcome.

For a NT it seems pretty snappy, very reliable as well. Installing internally was dead easy. Gave the old nook a new life (I had tried CM7 on NC but found it quite unstable). As long as you dont load up too many widgets, works great. Install Chrome for a browser, the stock browser is dead slow.

Hi did you ever get your 8gb answer? My rooted stock 8gb NT is now crashing. I tried a JB SD ROM from a Sandisk class 4 and it is too sluggish. Ideal candidate I think would be an ICS or aJB slim ROM designed for EMMC internal in the limited RAM memory of this version. I'd like to use it for Chromecasting, and some of those apps just wont run on GB.

What's frustrating is my kid is running JB off an SD on a Nook Color, no problem.
