[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Droidriven:
Answer 1) to prevent this in the future, when you get straightened out, boot to recovery and make a nandroid backup, that way you have a backup of everything with it working correctly that can easily be restored later if you have problems and will put you back to having everything the way it was when you made the backup. Its like a restore point in Windows.

Answer 2) A nandroid backup backs up everything on your device that is important, all of your settings, your contacts, your ROM, everything. You can pull whatever data from the backup that you need. But the backup I'm telling you to make right now nay not keep everything you had, there's no telling right now how much data you've lost or not so making the backup is to save whatever you can so you can retrieve it after repairing your device.

Always make a backup after every major change you make on your device so you'll always have a backup that includes the new additions so you can restore to that point if you need to. When you make a new backup you can delete the old one unless you just want to keep it but the more backups you make the more room they take.
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GraphicMarble:
So if I make a backup now what are the steps in restoring what I can salvage.
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Droidriven:
Don't get ahead of yourself, for now just make the backup and then focus on getting the device restored to working again and THEN you can worry about retrieving the data.

One step at a time, stop trying to cross bridges you haven't gotten to yet.
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GraphicMarble:
So I did a backup to my computer. What are the speps in restoring what i can salvage?
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Droidriven:
No, not a backup to computer, boot to TWRP and choose the backup option, nandroid are created in recovery. Using PC isn't the right way to do what I said.
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GraphicMarble:
Thats what I did but I put it on my PC for next time
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Droidriven:
You don't have an extsdcard? If so its best to keep it there.
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GraphicMarble:
I kinda do with the OTG feature
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GraphicMarble:
So I return to my question, What are steps of salvaging
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Droidriven:
Never mind then, just keep it on PC

Now, look through your forum and find a custom ROM that works on your model number and a compatible gapps package(the ROM thread will tell you which gapps you need so don't ask) and then flash ROM then superSU then Gapps in TWRP then reboot and see if you're fixed.

If that doesn't do it then you'll need to go to Sammobile.com or samsung-updates.com and type in your model number to find your firmware, download it and then flash it in Odin in the AP slot, the same slot you flashed your kernel to root.
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GraphicMarble:
Can I restore a nandroid backup with a stock ROM?
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Droidriven:
It doesn't matter what ROM you're on, restoring a nandroid overwrites everything with what is in the nandroid.

If you're asking if stock recovery will restore a nandroid, no it won't, only the same type of recovery that made it can restore it, TWRP can only restore TWRP backups and CWM can only restore CWM backups.

Restoring that nandroid you made isn't going to help you, that backup is with everything screwed the way it is, restoring it just keeps you where you are.

Stop thinking and overcomplicating.

Find a ROM and try it

Or

Flash stock firmware via Odin

Stay on track with that.

Enough questions, I'm trying to help you restore your device, can we focus and stay on point with that and get that done and then go from there?
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GraphicMarble:
You don't know how much I appreciate your efforts, but i need my phone working asap so i just flashed the stock rom but their is good news, google saved all my photos and apps even wallpapers in the cloud.

Ur the best:good:
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Droidriven:
OK, good.

Now you can do the root process again and get back to where you have TWRP.

But THIS time make a nandroid backup and you'll have everything safely stored and you can restore the device when you need to.

Delete the nandroid you put on PC and keep your new nandroid on the device, keep it there just so you don't get stuck in a position where you can't get it transferred back from wherever you might store it. If you want, you can put a copy of the new nandroid on PC just in case the one on device gets wiped by accident, always keep a copy of each new nandroid on both device and PC.
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Joehen873:
Yo j was kn a rom that had supersu 2.65 so i installed 2.67 apk and now it saying i lost root i might need to manually re root. Any ideas?
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Droidriven:
Are you using a custom lollipop or marshmallow ROM? If so you've got a setting in developer options for root access, it needs to be set to apps and adb.

If you don't have that setting or if you do have it but setting it to apps and adb doesn't help then it seems you've lost root. If you still have the su binaries in your system/xbin folder then reflashing superSU.zip in recovery should do it for you.

If it doesn't then you'll have to root the device all over again.
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Joehen873:
How do i re root nothings working. Do i have to go stock again or just reroot
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Droidriven:
If all else fails you can flash back to your original stock firmware and start over.
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Joehen873:
Yeah but what im saing os can i go into settings and reflash twrp from odin than flash supersu from twrp to get root access???
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Droidriven:
If you already have TWRP but flashing superSU.zip isn't doing anything then flashing TWRP again won't do anything.

Flash your stock firmware in Odin then start your rooting process from the beginning.

---------- Post added at 11:50 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:47 AM ----------

I already told you to try flashing superSU in TWRP, you aren't reading the details of my posts. You aren't understanding me.
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Joehen873:
I flashed supersu 2.65 and 2.67 and it wont update the binaries
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Droidriven:
See, that goes back to what I said. If flashing superSU in TWRP isn't working then flash back to original stock firmware via Odin and start over.

Keep up, understand what I'm telling you. That's the third time I've said to start over if flashing superSU isn't working. What are you not understanding?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] ghumanfly:
does anyone know why my imate kjame would give an error or Windows/autoconfig.exe doesnt exist.

i have tried a number or roms but the phone failed to upgrade to wm6. it then reverts back to the wm5 after encounting this error.

i have tried the CID unlock but there is no hope

can anyone please assist me urgently.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dharvey4651:
We need more information than this if you want help...

1. Wireless Carrier?

2. IPL/SPL?

3. Roms tried?

4. How have you been trying to flash roms? What method of flashing?

5. What is your PC's operating system(your computer, not PPC)

EDIT>> Answer these questions for me and I will try my best to help you tomorrow some time. I live in Cental US so I might not get your messages until later tomorrow your time but I will respond in the morning tomorrow.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] ghumanfly:
info

forgive me if there is anything that i dont get correct....

1. Wireless Carrier?

i am assuming that this is the service provider and that is vodacome for me. it is a not the same as vodafone however they have a JV running

2. IPL/SPL?

IPL - 2.16.0001

SPL - 2.16.0001

rom version - 2.16.9.1

radio - 02.07.10

extROM - 2.16.9.101

OS - WM5

3. Roms tried?

i tried one of the ROMs that my IT team provided to me. i have attached the rom.

i also tried Octvio's rom (ROM_Wizard_OCTAIVOI_OS_1908_v4[1].8_PP6MB)

i also tried CB-AIRAF

4. How have you been trying to flash roms? What method of flashing?

here i loaded the EnableRapi cab file and ran it on my wizard. then i ran the lokiwiz.bat file on my machine. i didnt see any error there so i take it that it ran fine.

5. What is your PC's operating system(your computer, not PPC)

i am running XP SP2 on my notebook.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] ghumanfly:
couldnt attach any of the files... not sure what was causing the problem
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dharvey4651:
Ok I see that you have a G4. Lokiwiz is a waste of your time since you have a G4.

Here is what you need to do:

Because you have a G4, you can't just flash a rom because of the DOC chip.

There are 3 ways I know of to flash a G4.

1. Download shelltools - install enablerapi.cab and cert_spcs.cab and reboot your device. connect with activesync and place the nk.nbf file of the rom of your choice in the shelltools directory and run shelltools and follow the directions in the readme. If you do it correctly, you will end up successfully flashing your device.

Link: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=293480

2. Download SoftSPL and place the nk.nbf file of your choice in the RUU folder included and run SoftSPL and it is fully automated. It will call the RUU and your device will be flashed in about 7 minutes.

Link: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=329147

3. Use the HardSPL(CID UNLOCK) and unlock your device prior to flashing. This will allow you to just flash roms at your leisure with no problems whatsoever from now on BUT it is still in developement so use at your own risk.

I hope this helps you. I personally have a G3 so this is not my area of expertise...

wm6

thanks alot me. it upgraded properly

i am trying get all add ons.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dharvey4651:
No problem... Now you're at the fun part. Add ons!!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] ghumanfly:
add ons

when it comes to add ons,I was reading on the Rom Kitchen thread and and I couldn't see much more that could be added to the rom that Faris V5's nbf file.it seems to be one of thee most comprehensive files that I have come across. the only issue is that it runs a bit slow but it cool.I might just need to do some memory management.

other than that I would recommend the file.

do you have any other recommendations?

have u seen the article that microsoft wants xda dev... to remove all of its roms from the website?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dharvey4651:
I personally use the TNT.1437 TouchFlo and TNT.1437 Professional+HTC Home roms personally modified to have a 10MB page pool. They are quite fast and are almost 100% stable with only minor bugs that are barely noticible...

Here is a link to the 10MB Version of TNT.1437 Touchflo

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=TM2N1W2R

Here is a link to the 10MB Version of TNT.1437 Prof+HTC Home

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=RZFKY868

If you would like, I can speed up the performance of faria's rom also and then upload the new nk.nbf file for you to try. Just let me know.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] ghumanfly:
speed

Yes, please.... speed it up for me. if there are any other applications (add ons) that you feel should be added to the nbf file then please add them.

i have already shared the nbf file with many guys at work. we would be grateful if you can assist.

one last thing, i noticed that there is a 3G icon under the comms manager. one of the guys said that we should not have any issues accessing 3G even if the phone didnt come with it. is it possible to use 3G on these phones?

[Zooper Widget General] kp3509:
I am trying to create a widget in Zooper that displays the amount of time the phone has been charging.

My idea is to have Tasker pass the charging start time to Zooper and Zooper will display the elapsed time since then. The problem is I cant get the date/time part of the Zooper command to be a Tasker variable:

#D201406122200Rd' days 'Rhh' h 'Rmm'm'# [This works with static time]

#D#TTasker_Time#Rd' days 'Rhh' h 'Rmm'm'# [This obviously does not work with the Tasker variable]

Is it possible to have variables within variables like this in Zooper?

I am open to other ideas on how to display the charging time as well. I see there is a time of last connect/disconnect BDT variable in Zooper, but it does not seem to work with my phone for some reason.

Thanks.
