The rom has f2fs support since, at least April 2017.

https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=71933953&postcount=4283

make sure your recovery is TWRP 3.1.1 (for f2fs support), also use it only for cashe and DATA partition, as there is no meaning in system partition

(ext4 is better in reading than writing compared to F2FS. System is a read only partition so ext4 has better results in system than F2FS)

and also may give you a lot of problems, I ALMOST BREAKED MY PHONE with F2FS in system partition, so be careful with that.

I am running in a F2FS file system in DATA and cashe , for the last 2 months now, with no problem in almost all Lineage based roms for Note 2.

Finally take a look here for more info and benchmarks:

If I reformat DATA as f2fs, I will lose /data/media (files in internal storage) too, yes?
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] logosA:
Yes, it formats everything in the DATA partition.

Only if you copy the folder in the ext sdcard before format and then copy that back after the formatting, but before phone boots up.

When I did that , there was nothing left in the phone, but I wanted this to happen as I made a totally clean flash, as I was coming from a stock rom flashed with odin.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] MrAlexPL:
Hi guys! I've wanted to also have apt-X support enabled and flashed the zip file provided by logosA in post #5625 but getting no libraries error as I see in logcat (screenshot attached) but I've searched this thread and possibly found this libraries in post #3962 containing two files in a zip file(screenshots also attached) , If I'm right where should I put this unpacked files in order to make apt-X work?:confused:

Since I use customized ROM on my N7100, I use the same trick to increase sound volume:

-install ES explorer from playstore

-ES explorer parameters : active root permission (ROM lineage14.1 is rooted by default)

-with ES explorer find the file "t03g" in the system (/system/etc/sound/t03g"

-still with ES explorer, long click on the file, parameters, change "permissions" -> enable READ, WRITE everywhere, (code permission "rw- rw-rw") and save

-still with ES explorer, long click on the file, then "edit file", like a txt file

-line 132 "device name = "speaker" section, modify in the next lines :

. AIFDAC1=>105

.DAC1 volume=>105

.speaker volume=>63

-line 152 "device name ear piece" section, modify next lines

.output volume=>63 (just the first line named like that you meet)

-SAVE your changes

-the change back the permission code "read, write" -> as it was originally rw- r-r"

-REBOOT your phone

-Enjoy the loud sound !
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] sonic_ear:
It is safe?
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] jlbd:
At worst no song after reboot I guess. If it happens, you edit the "t03g" file and modify as original, OR you use the backup file you did before starting (within Lineage or within TWRP if boot issue).

I have never met any issue doing it.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] sonic_ear:
Well done,nothing bad happen and music or video sound going loud. Thanks to you!
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] jlbd:
you r welcome.

A bit late, I precise that if you want to modify "earpiece" or "headphone" lines in "t03g" file to up the volume in earphone

=> do NOT test your changes with earphone on your EARS for your health !!!!
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] sonic_ear:
Thank you for the advice.

So my lock screen clock is displaying like a box type of font when it's supposed to be showing a colon ( : ). Is there a way to fix this? Tried searching the web but results are for the Samsung galaxy S8.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] TRNSLN:
You need to find which font type is used within the lockscreen app. Than you can add that font to your phone. It'll be the solution for your phone.

Hey [MENTION=539770]tilaksidduram[/MENTION] , any progress on oreo???
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] Crike:
I've just run into the boot logo issue: regular startup hangs, but with the proper button combination TWRP works.

The TWRP log indicates (summarised):

E: Unable to find partition size for '/boot', '/recovery' or '/modem'

E: Primary block device '/dev/block/mmcblk0p16' for mount point '/data' is not present

E: Unable to mount '/data'

E: Unable to recreate /data/media folder

E: Unable to mount '/efs', '/cache', '/system' or '/data'

E: Unable to mount storage, /data/media during GUI startup, '/cache'

E:/sbin/runatboot.sh process ended with ERROR=1

Finished running boot script.

E: Unable to mount '/cache', /data/media/TWRP/.twrps when trying to read settings file, '/data'

MTP Enabled

E: Unable to mount '/data'

Both Internal Storage and the SD Card are reported as having 0MB. (The SD Card verifies as intact and containing data on another device.)

Any attempt to format data or wipe, repair or change the file system of any partition fails. Attempting to repair or change Internal Storage results in the warning "Invalid partition selection" and doesn't even proceed to the repair/change options.

Given that TWRP does work but the SD Card is inaccessible, is this an EMMC issue? Does it control external storage as well? And is the recovery data stored on a separate medium from the rest of the internal data, as TWRP is still working?
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] logosA:
Yes recovery is a partition which is stand alone so TWRP is still working but system and data partition looks like are corrupted.

These are deep waters my friend and you have to be careful swimming in that .

If you want to get a general idea how partitions are in a Samsung phone read this:

https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=17949633&postcount=8

these people gave us the first knowledge on how to use Odin or custom recovery.

Have you tried to flash a stock - repair rom and see if it can be repair your phone? would you like to try it?

read this and feel free to ask anything that is not clear about the process:

https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=73019818&postcount=392

Good luck my friend

PS. search options that you can try, like re partitioning your memory with odin options. (USE OF A PIT , re partition option in odin etc)

If you search in xda , you will find some very good guides about odin and how to use it, trying to repair/renew your phone.

At first I would suggest download the stock rom with the Samfirme I pointed, flash it in your phone and if it doesnt, try more advance futures.

Why Repair stock rom(4 files set) and not the one file stock rom? Because it flashes one partition and closes it before move to the next one and this way its more safe and flexible.

You have nothing to lose trying it, as I can understand, you are now stuck with a phone, it can't boot, but its always your choice.

The other option is going to a support center and replace your emmc chip, which will not be cheap.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] Crike:
Thanks for the advice. I'll look into the links tomorrow. If you know where I can find an appropriate PIT file, I'd appreciate a link.

I've already considered purchasing a replacement motherboard. Used ones aren't that expensive, but as they aren't fresh the lifespan may not be long before it too starts acting up.

If the EMMC is indeed the problem, what are the chances a software fix could remedy the issue? Or is it "just" that a surge or hardware issue corrupted the EMMC and now it's a question of needing to "reformat" the EMMC in a way that is normally not available via recovery partition tools?
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] logosA:
1. the pit is included in the repair rom and usually its not needed , but sometimes odin is reporting '' invalide PIT file'' when we are trying repartitioning or other emmc failure issues. In these cases we have to have it on hand and show odin which exactly to use.

In the end of the post you can see the zip with PIT, uploaded from my dear friend and ''teacher'' [MENTION=4546136]silentvisitor[/MENTION] :)

https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=60832490&postcount=6

2. There are no new motherboard any more, keep that in mind, so what you will find are motherboards extracted from old phones, which for other reason where sold (cracked screen, damaged body or touch etc).

I have been looking for months for a motherboard for my Note 4 and an honest seller made that clear to me, so be carefull from where to buy.

take a look here for example, a user has posted this sometime ago:

https://www.aliexpress.com/item/wel...urope-Version-Unlocked-Logic/32577193717.html

3. If odin cannt format your memory and reinstall the stock rom and in that way bring your phone back to life, I think its a serious indication that you have an emmc corrupted chip. If anything can do that, its ODIN which is designed to do that better than any other software solution.

I wish you good luck my friend

I just looked into the region codes PDF, linked on the page linked to above. There are ten codes for my region, covering various combinations of providers. Although my carrier appears in several of those codes, my current phone is SIM-unlocked. Should any variant work which includes my carrier, or do I need to pick a specific one? Will it re-lock my phone's SIM's to certain networks?
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] cristobalite1983:
Is anyone experiencing drain issues when using latest Google play services?
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] logosA:
For Europe, Africa, India , Midle East there is no difference , as we all have the same (give it or take) Bands, so we share the same CP (modem)

Only for American and Canadian version there is difference and thats because of their mobille providers, using different bands and some locks for their sims.

I would suggest that you use a no carrier version(OPEN) .

I AM NOT SURE , but I haven't heard someone complain that updating his rom with odin ended up with a lock sim card.

Our phone is to old to still have those restrictions. Also BL are not locked by Samsung.

I was using for months rom with India CSC version and never had a problem.

Also these last updates, a lot of friends from india are using them as we, in European roms, as well, with NO PROBLEM I believe

Using a rom with different CSC (region/country) can only stop you from using OTA, which doesn't matter, as there are no OTA updates any more :)
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] Gill Android:
There is a minor problem we can face if we use different region's Stock ROM. There are some apps which are region specific e. g. Google Opinion Rewards, which stop working if we flash a ROM from another region. This is my personal experience [emoji4]

Are there any authoritative sites which publish the MD5's of firmware packages? Download speeds of sammobile.com or samsung-firmware.org are highly restricted for non-subscribers (10 hours for 1.23GB). There are other sites (droidsview.com, for example) which link to files on file hosts (such as rapidgator), but caution seems warranted as firmwares seem an obvious hacking target.

FORGET ABOUT SAMMOBILLE:

also Using SAMFIRM software from a pc , you are downloading Stock roms (in normal or Binary Nature) directly from Samsung servers, without registration or restrictios of any kind.

Unfortunately, Odin reported success on flashing the repair ROM (from a single .tar.md5 file) but on (auto) boot the green Droid appeared, belly up. E: failed to mount /efs (No such file or directory) etc, etc.

Unless I erred, it looks like a hardware issue. I'll try again tomorrow, but unless you've got a suggestion, my guess is I'll wind up replacing the motherboard.

[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] jer194:
It doesn't sound like a ROM problem, so should go to a different thread.

After you changed (to a hopefully) charged battery, did it boot?

When you try o charge, while device is off, do you see any charging info?

If not, USB port might be broken (or cable, or charger).

did you performed factory reset and clear user data through (stock) recovery after rom was flashed with odin?

If not, power off phone, start in recovery mode, factory reset, clear user data, reboot system.

Then rom will perform initial setup from the beginning and find and update google services and Play store.

But as phone has booted, you can just skip that,

Reboot in download mode and flash TWRP then will be able to flash Rom, gapps and boot in the custom rom (if thats your goal)

actually battery drain was there even its a new battery or old bcz of november update battery was insanely dropping so i went to official rom to check whether its battery problem but on stock rom it stays for two days pf moderate usage i think there is a bug in November update need to fix it

hope so, dont get me wrong like the rom very very much but the drain is just to much, seeing i also use my phone for CPR program. so i hope it gets fixed soon, but the logfile problem is the biggest problem files up 4 gb in 2 days..

ps. to stop it from filling i found a small block, goto /root/Data/log and set the folder chmod 000 no the phone cant read/write/run from the directory this is a temp fix for the storage fill.
