[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] ykkfive:
** FOR PREVIOUS ADDON 1.1 for DN4 N7105**​

hi all

a long story but i will keep it short

i finally made the DN4 (android 4.4.4), originally created by the eteam for N7100, to work on our Note 2 LTE. this is only an addon patch that allows you to make phone calls, surf the internet, etc as we used to be with our note 2 lte but now a bit different - we can do that with DN4!

i am glad that i can share this to all 7105 users finally. Enjoy!

ANNOUNCEMENT:

please read the announcements or important information about the current status of this addon before installing. thank you

DISCLAIMER:

THIS IS NOT a standalone port or mod, nor a complete rom but REQUIRES DN4 installation pack from the eteam

this addon only serves as an extra patch for having DN4 v2 7105/LTE works on the note 2 lte model with LTE connection and gps but nothing else

all materials contained in this addon are subject to the sharing policies laid down by the eteam, thus any reproduction or redistribution is prohibited

the inclusion of the kernel, AGNi pureSTOCK N7105, as well as the new mali drivers in this addon is permitted by the original developer psndna88, please consult him before using it for other purposes

due to the sharing policies, i can only provide support for what i have shared. please visit eteam or psndna88's thread for other suppports

i cannot make any other modifications or additional features which may compromise eteam's sharing policies

NOTE:

you need to download DN4 v2 7105 LTE installation files/updates from the eteam's DN4 thread as base files for this addon

only tested on my note 2 lte GT-N7105, i cannot guarantee this works for other note 2 lte variants as well and no support will be provided

only tested with AGNI pure stock kernel v4.3 (included)

since bootloader downgrade is not possible, i have only tested with a 4.4.2 bootloader which i upgraded weeks ago

you are probably free to choose a modem of your choice, however, it is suggested to keep your current modem if in doubt

SCREENSHOTS:

​

with addon v1.1 for DN4 v2 7105 LTE installed
​

WHAT TO EXPECT:

a working DN4 with phone call, data network (LTE/GSM, etc) and GPS function properly

WHAT NOT TO EXPECT:

modded or ported files from DN4

frequent updates

fancy installations

bugs free experiences

problems will be solved quickly/ultimately

individual/feature requests (i will listen, but no promise)

request/mod that compromise the sharing policies

KNOWN PROBLEMS:

calls forwarding status is not checked or shown in the status bar when the phone boots up FIXED in v1.1

the signal bar icon in the status bar does not reflect signal strength FIXED in v1.1

gps works but no locking FIXED in v1.1

ONLY CWM recovery is supported at this time for installing the addon FIXED in v1.0b

[*] for some users, the gps may not get locked within a reasonable short time (approximately < 1 min for the 1st lock, within a few seconds thereafter without reboot). there are some possible fixes here but i cannot guarantee they are 100% safe. currently, there is NO ULTIMATE fix for this yet

however, u may try the quick fix below which is safe and relatively easy

1 backup your efs in recovery

2 do a data and system nandroid backup of your current dn4

3 odin flash the system.img or restore a system nandroid backup of a stock rom with working gps

4 let it boot until u see the setup wizard

5 reboot into recovery (not stock recovery) and restore the backup at point 1 above

CHANGELOG:

FAQs / MISCONEPTIONS:

couldnt find DN4 v2 7105 installation file on eteam's web site

it's a bit tricky that some menu items are not shown in some pages, try goto their main page and get the links from the menu there at http://electron-team.com/index.html

kernel not installed properly from the addon or black (blank) screen after boot

make sure you have wiped your system and data partition before (excluding /data/media, aka /sdcard)

can i unzip the addon and put all the files into the DN4 installation or update zip files?

it is NOT suggested to extract the addon

in the addon file there are some scripts for replacing/patching the original files come with DN4 installation and update files

if you are familiar with the installation script (updater-script) and shell scripts then u can do that if you want to, but make sure you also make all the changes manually that supposed to be done by the scripts

otherwise, do not do this as this may cause bootloops or situation can get even worse

i don like the kernel included in the addon file, can i use other kernels?

only the included kernel has been tested, while you can use other kernels at your own risks

can i install this addon with other variants like at&t, t mobile etc? do you plan to make this addon works with other variants as well?

initially only global version GT-N7105 is supported officially. other variants like I317 (AT&T and T-Mobile) are reported as compatible as well, while for the rest, there may be compatibility issues and not tested yet. i will try to make it works with other variants but no promise as i don own such devices and thus cant test it myself. however, this addon should be compatible most note 2 lte variants, except verizon atm

which bootload should i use? can i stick with the 4.1.2 bootloader?

only tested with 4.4.2 bootloader. however, users reported 4.1.2 bootloader is working fine too

what is OPEN version means? which one should i choose?

the normal version contains a device model checking which will reject non T0LTE (GT-N7105) for installing for safety purpose, while the OPEN version does not contain such checking

if your device model is GT-N7105 then choose the normal one if available (without OPEN)

otherwise if you want to install this addon on a non GT-N7105 device, you should choose the OPEN version. however, since the installation wont check for a valid device model, you may risk flasing a wrong kernel and can cause damages to your phone. so do it at your own risks!
