How to Fix Bootlooping

Anyone having bootloops with this rom:

primarily old root process that makes this rom unusable on your phone.

supersu has a new way of rooting process which you can see in the quote from chainfire author of supersu

So this new "system-less" installation process needs kernel to be installed before rooting which seems to be in the wrong order in sweet rom updater script.

HOW TO FIX?

You can use following steps if you are having bootloops after running the rom for the first time.

Step 1

Flash a stock COJ5 rom or COJ5 bootloader from odin (I used Russian firmware for N910C dated 2015-12-04 on sammobile)

Step 2

Flash TWRP Recovery (Latest 3.0.0 version didn't work for me so i m using 2.8.7.0)

Step 3

Extract the original Sweet ROM zip file to a folder

You should see 3 folders inside named 'META-INF', 'sweet' and 'system'

Step 4

Download the attachment file and extract the 3 files

boot.img file contains Suemax kernel_Lite-v1.6

SuperSU-v2.65.zip file contains latest stable supersu

updater-script is the modified version of the original script by not-i

Step 5

Go into META-INF/com/google/android/ directory in the extracted rom folder

You should see 2 files named update-binary and updater-script

Replace updater-script with the file from the attachment

Step 6

Go into sweet directory in the extracted rom folder

Replace boot.img with the file from the attachment

Step 7

Go into sweet/supersu directory in the extracted rom folder

Delete BETA-SuperSU-v2.52.zip file in there and copy SuperSU-v2.65.zip from the attachment

Step 8

Repack the rom as a zip file again and flash it to your device

VERY IMPORTANT NOTICE

After flashing the rom, twrp will say something like su binaries cannot be detected and

ask you if you would like to install them

DO NOT SWIPE

just press "Do not install"

This is happening because twrp version we're using is not adapted to the new su installation method yet.

Air command restart

Everytime I press the button of the s pen to use air command, the phone restarts and reboots the software (like when you use the quick reboot function). I noticed this issue after i followed the steps to fix the bootloop problems, so is it a kernel or a rom problem?

This works great. thank you.

but I wasn't sure if you meant on step 3: 'after phone up'; did you mean after phone starts up; or remain in recovery; I just remained in recovery and flashed the latest stable Suemax V1.4a lite

but thank you. this helped a lot. I was about to give up on this rom, but I know how awesome this rom is as I had Note 1 and I loved this sweet rom.

Hi,

Noob question. Instead of using TWRP, can i use CWM to flash this rom? I am having trouble with TWRP lately which forced me to flash back to 5.1.1 stock rom . Btw...can i flash this rom over my N910CXXU1COI4 directly or do i have to update to the COJ5 bootloader?

Thanks.

Hi!

This is the first time I'm going to do this by myself, am using SM-N910C so I guess I've got the correct files for this thread. :) I already have the following items below (marked as ready)

[READY] - You may want to do a backup of your data apps etc. I have made a quick guide HERE on how I backup and restore my apps in under 10 minutes after a data wipe

[READY] - Make sure you have backed up your imei (efs). There are a number of apps that do this. Refer Themes & Apps or Original Development XDA thread for Note 4. Keep in a safe place. (If done on previous version no need to do it again if kept in safe place)

[READY] - Download & place Sweet Rom V17.1 zip on internal or external SD Card

[READY] - I used twrp recovery from HERE

[NOT READY, BUT DOWNLOADED] - I am COJ5 5.1.1 bootloader (available in Notes section below). You may need to be on it to flash this rom. I haven’t tested from 5.0.1 bootloader so I can’t comment if that will work

[READY] - Do a nandroid backup of your current rom

[READY TO DO] - Wipe data / factory reset

[READY TO DO] - Flash Sweet ROM V17.1

[READY TO DO] - Reboot & do a little dance, pat your head and rub your tummy at the same time while you're waiting for it to boot. Be patient as it takes a lot longer due to ART

I want to ask, for the bootloader: Is it needed? I'm using 5.1.1 currently in my stock ROM. Do I need to flash the bootloader or no need? Also to clear things for the Wipe Data/factory reset: Can this be done by going to TWRP and choose Wipe > Data only? Will that be also the same thing as factory reset so I can proceed to flash Sweet ROM?

I read that I need to unlock bootloader first before I can flash any Custom ROM.

Would appreciate answers immediately, thanks! :o:D

[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] evo1234:
hi, I had the same problem. It has something to do with the correct bootloader and a modem

You have 3 options - install old Version 14 I think, it works fine

Option 2 - install the correct bootloader and modem for your n910h - I cant help here because I could not get it to work myself

And option 3 , which I am using now - download N910HXXS2DPJ2_N910HOJV2DPE1_XFE software - XFE is for South Africa, you can. Look for the one for your country, then if you want , you may root the phone as well. Whether it has LTE, I am not sure as here in SA lte is fairly new thing

Maybe option 4 - look for official software from. Samsung that supports LTE

That's your problem. Restoring system settings. Should really only restore user (data) apps otherwise you are restoring old firmware and may have conflict with new.

The exemptions are WiFi & Bluetooth connections, call logs, mms & sms data, launcher (data only)

Hi not-i,

This rom is perfect. Samsung has patched it's bugs with NK5 and you have perfected this firmware. Thanks.

Settings and Usage

Screen Auto -2

Mixed usage of WiFi and 3G

No Game

Surfing with Chrome most of the time

Pre-Findings,

* NK5 modem have better reception in my location, I think it will help battery

* When I was using fully de-bloated stock ROM I was getting max ~5hrs SOT, Now it will end like ~7hrs

* Very smooth interface,

* Better CPU usage than NJ4

SOT and Other Usages

[IMG="SOT"]http://monoarge.com/xda/images/Note4/2014-11-24%2007.49.49.jpg[/IMG]

And I have found a CPU Power usage table,

If we use our phone on PowerSave mode CPU will locked for max. 1400MHz and GPU will locked for max 350MHz so this will help consuption 50%

This table belongs to Exynos 5422 our CPU will use 20~40% less Power (20nm magic) Source

new CPU good only on papper - many words, but bad deal

you sad that in 1900mhz it takes only 1.2W and on 1300 only 0.16, but how can you explane overheating even in antutu CPU tests. in single core test it heat to 60C but in multicore it heat to 95C very fast (about 5-7seconds) and begin trottling

seems like your table only for ONE core for A53 and A57 ) for overal power you must multiply it x4 )))

and i isnt sad any word about GPU wich can work with 600mHz only in tests and only 10-15 min after that its begin trotling with 266mhz...GPU performance fall down x3
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Exynos)] kadiremrah:
Yep, every core has its own consumption. So if 4Core A15 and 4Core A7 work at the same time it makes over 5W of consumption.
