Please help me

My note 2 suddenly stopped working a couple days back. I have never messed with rooting or custom roms.

I am currently at the download screen on my Note 2.

I have attached 2 photos. I have Odin V3.1.0 running and in green it says 0:COM23

The second photo is the files that I unzipped. None of the files to seem to be MD5 or any format that seem to produce any results in ODIN

MY QUESTION IS DO I NEED TO HAVE DIFFERENT ODIN. or WHAT DO I DO WITH THE BOXS BL, AP,CP,CSC.... THIS IS WHERE I AM LOST...

PLEASE HELP
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Bubba:
Well if I am looking at the second picture correctly, you nothing with those files. You can't flash Alliance files in Odin. You need the stock files for your device to use in Odin.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Jaws4God:
yeah i believe you need the stock ROM to flash in ODIN..

Section 1b: How to return to stock 4.X Jelly Bean coming from any rom with Odin

Step 1: Download and install Odin- http://xdaforums.com/atta...2&d=1340993443

Step 2: Download one of these stock images and pit file to a windows based pc. If Odin does not recognize the file then extract it with a program such as 7zip.(Make sure to only use the version that is compatible with your bootloader...meaning if you upgrade to the latest firmware you can no longer revert back to older firmware versions)

VRUEMJ9 4.3- http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23269279319197589(ONLY USE THIS IF YOU TOOK THE 4.3 OTA!! There currently is no bootloader unlock method for 4.3 which means you can no longer flash custom roms, recoveries, or kernels!!!)

Official VRAMC3 4.1.2 5/5/13- https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B46n...Rzg/edit?pli=1

This firmware image that will return your device to factory stock and locked conditions. Take note this is the latest firmware version that is currently can be be unlocked.

Official VRALJB 4.1.1 12/9/12- http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=9390214368362234374

This will wipe data and return your device to factory stock out of the box conditions. This file can only be used on devices that never took the VRALL4 or VRAMC3 OTA update. If this file is flashed on a updated device, Odin will fail @ sboot.bin.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] evanswes:
THANKS

THANKS! The first 2 links did not work but the last link is a md5 file and is currently dl'ing...

SHould I be worried about the note below it even though my phone is 100% wiped out??? "This file can only be used on devices that never took the VRALL4 or VRAMC3 OTA update. If this file is flashed on a updated device, Odin will fail @ sboot.bin"

ALSO, DO I USE THE MD5 File in the AP button in Odin or is it one of the others?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] evanswes:
First few trys failed, any ideas??

So downloaded 3rd file...STOCK ROM

I tried putting it in BL and AP

Both times it produced the result attached..

ANY IDEAS?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Jaws4God:
im pretty sure you do want AP. does Odin show connected before you start?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] evanswes:
...

Yeah it is Green and connected. I have tried many variations and DL'd the newest firmware from sammobile.com ...I wasnt sure about the buttons that say repartition, flashlock., t flash, nall and erase about which ones to choose and which ones not to choose
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Jaws4God:
I typically leave those as is. i've only unchecked the reboot option one time when trying to test some odin flashing that I was doing at the time..

Battery charger message

I had trouble having my windows based machines seeing my phone. I finally upgraded Kies to re-install drivers. I can now see the phone but get a message on a mobile charger now saying the phone will not charge with an unauthorized charger. Trouble is it is a Samsung charging cable. Is there any way to fix this setting in this rom? Thanks.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Jaws4God:
hmmm.. i have not seen this error before... the only time i have is on Apple Devices because they are so picky about aftermarket chargers.. do you get the same result using other computers? what version of windows?

hopefully someone who still checks this forum will be able to help..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] NB2A:
It only happens now with car charger which is an OEM charger that I had and used for years. It does charge on windows based computer USB cable fine

I bet Samsung is now doing this with KIES since the Note 7 issue
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Jaws4God:
oh that is very possible.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] NB2A:
Screen shot issue

Any idea why when trying to take a screenshot I get USB storage maybe in use?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] jimbop98:
This ROM requires the MJ9 firmware I know. I have an unlocked bootloader with VRALJB firmware. My question is can I flash the MJ9 firmware without locking my bootloader and be able to Odin back to VRALJB if I so choose? I want to try out a stock style ROM again but I don't want to change my firmware if it is going to lock me in place. Thanks.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Charlie R.:
You would never want to apply this ROM if you weren't locked into it.

If you are capable of running an AOSP ROM, then run Marshmallow or Nougat. Don't even look at a 4.4.2 KitKat ROM.

http://androidbiits.com/verizon-sam...5-android-6-0-1-marshmallow-vrtoxin-v2-0-rom/

I can't run anything newer since I'm on nd7 (unless I get a new phone).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] jimbop98:
That's kinda what I figured. What I had wanted to do was be able to load up a ROM that passed SafetyNet. I know the kernel does not know about the unlocked bootloader like the new Pixel does, yet even fully unrooting any marshmallow builds failed to pass on my device. I tried everything from suhide to magisk with no success. However it does not matter to me now since I now own a Pixel and am content with my Note 2 as it stands. Thanks for your response.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Youdoofus:
so, this ROM wont work on MC3? That sounds kinda odd to me

i installed the ROM but it just stayed at the bootanimation indefinitely. re-wiped in recovery and reinstalled, no dice. I cant imagine the bootloader being a requirement
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] sgtguthrie:
I had the same problem.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Goldie:
Did you notice that UNchecked is enabled?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] freddy0872:
Oh Dammit no lol. I seen home button I was like oh yea check. Tricky tricky! Lmao!

Thanks [MENTION=3065070]Goldie[/MENTION]
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] jahciple:
Download FolderMount[ROOT] app, I had the same problem and that fixed it.

Are you having SDcard issues too? That will fix it also with other apps that won't

write on the SDcard. Other than that this build is really stable.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mdblaze:
Yeah, right now it is affecting my internal SD card. At least I have full access to my ext sd.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mdblaze:
Ok, for those that have root issues with 27, I was able to fix mine by flashing superSU.zip in Philz right after installing a fresh copy of the rom. For some reason if I booted into the rom first the root would not take right, even if I flashed superSU.zip later.

Sent from my Note 2
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] freddy0872:
I ran into the same issue when I tried R3Ds port. Not sure if it's a 4.4.2 issue or what. I remember reading why. But can't remember for the life of me why.

I didn't have to thankfully when flashing 27. Glad u got it situated sir. When u said u had partial root access I figured it'd be worth a shot on flashing SuperSU. Zip

Mine worked without having to do a fresh install. So that might help some save time if they did a bunch of app installs or customizations.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] pmsrefugee:
I can't make a folder by dragging one icon over another. How does this work in alliance roms?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] thisguyeh:
Create a folder first and drag the icons in there.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] pmsrefugee:
That's the problem. I long press the screen and there isn't a make folder option.

Edit. Found it. I was dragging an app off the screen to remove it and instead of app info on top there was make folder. Never expected to find it there.

Edit Oh hell. Now it's everywhere. I wasn't used to having a menu popular on the home screen. Haven't used TouchWiz for a while.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] glockman4519:
Yes, thats the newer S5 launcher approach to making folders. I, like you liked the old way, but I am getting used to it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] golfinglenn:
Where is this located? I have looked in lockscreen and display, still no luck. Also, how do I fix permissions in Philz?

Edit: Found lockscreen wake in Lockscreen and Security.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] coolestmage:
Toggling email security doesn't work. At least it doesn't do what I'd expect (exchange security bypass). With security disabled I still have to set a pin or password for my lock screen. :(
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] lacoursiere18:
Pretty sure email security bypass has nothing to do with lockscreen pin.. that would be quick unlock
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] freddy0872:
Sadly it looks like my wifi is going bonkers. Just started giving me an issue. [MENTION=5056266]lacoursiere18[/MENTION] what can I do to possibly get u a bug report for it? Catlog? Dmesg? It shows I'm connected but nothing will reach the Internet. I switch to 4g and all is good. Reconnect wifi. Works like a charm but quits after a random amount of time. Let me know if there is something I can get you to help work out the bug.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] ganggreen777:
AWESOME L

Would this happen to have air command?

I saw 1 post of the same question and I personally didn't see an answer. ....sorry if there was (is) and answer. ...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dikkebas:
nope, not in (yet)

To quote [MENTION=5056266]lacoursiere18[/MENTION]

So you guys know what to expect, and what not to ask for...:D
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] ganggreen777:
Thanks bro
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] coolestmage:
Email security bypass is to bypass exchange email accounts from enforcing a policy that forces a user to use a pin or password instead of slide or no lock screen. Thanks for dismissing me without knowing what you are talking about though.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] NunHugger:
disregard
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Bubba:
Wow. I don't think he "dismissed" you. But thanks for jumping to conclusions on his thoughts..

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dikkebas:
Been deleting my reply to this over and over.

Your question was answered, he wasn´t sure about it and was honest enough to admit it, you were not in any way dismissed..

I´ll leave it at that
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] sparx:
But you obviously seem to know.....so, fixed it yet?

Nope, didn't think so
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] MADDAN18:
When I use the email bypass option on my corporate email, it bypasses the security check option I.e. administrator privileges to wipe/delete/view contents on my phone.

Of course I still need to use my username/password but the option to allow administration privileges by confirming or denying i will allow that at the end of the setup stage, is not there...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] tulalhyt:
where do you get the latest supersu.zip from ? can i get those link ?

thankx
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Bubba:
Play store maybe ?

Great Work Buddy Glad to see you still Working on Great Roms For us Verizon Folks !!

Your Work is always Recognized as Good clean work Thanks again !!:good::laugh:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] stueycaster:
Well I sure am happy to get this. Thanks [MENTION=5056266]lacoursiere18[/MENTION]. I like not having to use Xposed to get my status bar colors like I want them. I don't know why white status bar icons bother me but they do. Now all I need to do is find a way to change tracks in Poweramp with the volume rocker. That shouldn't be hard.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] freddy0872:
You can actually set volume rocker keys to do whatever you wish when playing music. Stop. Pause. Forward. Backward. Very nicely done!

Settings/Custom Settings/Hardware Key Mapping/Volume Buttons

Just check the first box and set the buttons to do whatever you please!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] stueycaster:
Hey thanks man. That's what I wanted.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] NWNJ:
I have a rather interesting occurance. When I set under AllianceROM setting, colors, backgrounds, statusbar, then I uncheck to disable the gradient to have a completely black status bar, it does not hold upon reboot. Any ideas? I have nothing in Exposed that would interfere with this as that was one thought I had.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] aptalca:
Did you figure this out? I have the same issue. No problems writing to the external sd card but I can't write to the internal sd through some apps. Es file explorer can't write to or delete from the internal sd (but it can rename).

I saw in another device's forum that if they flashed the rom zip from the external sd they had that issue. So I started from scratch and flashed it from the internal sd but still have the problem. Driving me nuts.

By the way I have the latest philz, and I select the option to clean everything to install new rom before I flash it
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mdblaze:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] aptalca:
Hmm I don't seem to have issues with root in general. And I am even able to mount the system as rw and write to it just fine in es, but not the data partition.

Oh well I'll try reflashing cleanly and flashing the supersu right away. Third time's a charm, right
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] stueycaster:
Did you install FolderMount from the play store. The first time it starts up it fixes the writing to SD problem.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dms76:
How do I transfer some notification tones from the old rom to the new? I transferred captains log and put it in the same directory. Capitans log makes a noise in the selection menu, but not for incoming text.

Edit: I'm not doing so good today! right after I hit submit. it occurred to me to check permissions. Sorry
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] aptalca:
Dude, you are a superstar!!

First time I ran foldermount, I got a popup saying faulty module: system/bin/sdcard and it asked me if I wanted to fix it. Hit yes, rebooted and all is well. Thanks so much
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DaveKnowsAll:
You are are ROM machine... thank you so much for all you do. So far so good on this ROM. GPS works great! Exchange security bypass isn't working for me, and I am looking forward to Note3 features (I think you said air command was coming...hoping for others as well), but good enough for my daily driver without them. I will let battery settle in before I load Xposed for the Wanam security bypass so I can see what Xposed may be costing me.

Thanks again.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] swapyworld:
can anyone confirm if this has Note 3 and s5 features like DN3?

or we can flash the zip available?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] freddy0872:
As for the features reading this thread says it's a work in progress and not complete. Says most of the note 3 features are on the way. And what zip are you speaking of?

In my test runs of roms I've found just making a good nandroid backup and then just flashing the rom you wish to test to see if it fits your standards works well! And if you don't like it just restore your backup! [emoji106] But that's the way I go about it. In my honest opinion I've yet to find a smoother rom and more stable rom than Alliance. (beans rom from back in the day before it merged)

[emoji2]
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] swapyworld:
Have been using N7100 till now and shifted to this device for a while.

i do know about the process but in OP says needs MJ9 BL to start with.

Just wanna ask...how to unlock BL? or we can directly flash philz and then cf auto root?

I don't know if it's just me but the alarm sound doesn't turn on.

I see it on the screen but no sounds. I've put the volume to high

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] lacoursiere18:
Alarm sound? You mean the alarm clock? Make sure you have a ring tone selected. Mine goes off every morning.. =)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] jahciple:
Yes, the alarm clock. I do have ringtone selected and made sure the alarm volume is set to medium. It goes off, but no sound, but I hear the sound when I select a ringtone. Weird, other than that, I'm not having any other problems.

I don't know if this is part of the the rom or something I loaded without knowing it. I have a custom app launcher like the pull up app. My recent shows jk sidelaunch as the app. It is from jellykat's rom. I can't find where the settings are for the app. Any ideas?

Edit: found it under app manager. Cleared data, swiped screens all the way left, and menu appeared to pick app. ?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] tulalhyt:
i usually using screen off aplikaction or proximity action application (the power off button) to turn shut off the screen of my phone (instead off using power button)

but this time i can't use it well, after touch the screen off application, the screen goes off, but if i touch the screen , its on again (lockscreen)

only if i wait approximately 15 seconds and i touch the screen it doesn't automatically turn on

i don't know is it kit kat trouble with this kind of appliaction or this rom bug ...

anyway , great rom, i use it allready 2 days as my dailly driver

thankx lc :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] golfinglenn:
I have used Screen Off and Lock app for several years and it is working perfect on this rom. I use the donate version so you can get about a dozen different effects when you turn the screen off with it.

EDIT: I just checked mine and having the same issue (just never noticed it till I tested it). About 15 seconds is correct, before that if I touch the screen it will come back on.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] PhilDX:
^^^ this app is awesome
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] pmsrefugee:
I used Gravity Screen before to shut off screen. Just read up on saving battery by turning off motion sensor and just use proximity.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] PhilDX:
sounds similar to a touch wake feature... intentional or otherwise

Rom working excellent flashed with Philz had to install Folder Mount from the play store to fix storage problems.

My question is the rom was working perfect with the Beans 26 radio, when I flashed the ND7 radio speeds reduced, can some one send me the radio form beans26 link, thanks in advanced.

Does anyone use vpn or openvpn on this? I cannot get either to work. I'm able to connect to the servers with both but internet connection is not routed.

I can access local web pages on the vpn server's subnet like the router's web interface but nothing on the outside.

Thank goodness this came out! I was running R3ds and that crashed more than cars in a demolition derby. This should last me until I can get my hands on the N4! Gonna keep this n2 since it's new and so i have a backup! Love this rom so far!

My only problem with it so far, is i like the clock in the center of the status bar. I can set it to the center and then after awhile, when i wake it up, there is a clock on the right and then a clock in the center ontop of everything else..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] stueycaster:
I'm getting that clock thing too.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] JTProuhet:
I had to move it back to the right. It was annoying me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Goldie:
People with moving clock. Do you have lock rotation switched on?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] thisguyeh:
Anyone else notice any lag on this rom? I flashed 3 times and 1 time tried agni. The lag still exist.

I had the dual clock thing too. I fixed it with xposed and the xposed StatusBar Mods app. I was also able to change clock color. Win win :victory::victory::victory:

So here you go. Nova settings. Then look and feel.
