Shh… later uncle scold me ngah ?

Okie, I'm sure many if you know xposed for nougat is released hours ago :cool:

Tested working fine on RROS 5.8.5 n7000! Break your reins!

You may need to do a few restarts after install to let the system settle down. I wait for 5 minutes before everyboot, and I reboot 4 times after install, then only my n7000 settle down. If you no do so, you will experience massive lags.

And i also like to promote my modded xposed module, NEClient!

You can find it inside xposed installer. It is originally released by bin456789 and I modded it to make it easy for non-china user use.

However, NetEase Music is in chinese ( i knoe), but you can use AllTrans module to translate it, I tested it before, it works fine :D

Oh ya I didn't say what is the function of the module. Well, better if you go find it out hard to say here :silly:
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] ryandigweed:
I flashed this ROM over the nightowl Marshmallow rom. Looks like my phone is stuck on the "GT-7000" screen and won;t go ahead. Something about partitions im assuming...

EDIT: Managed to get it installed with a couple of flashes. I think i was performing the wipes after flashing the rom, rather than before flashing ROM
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] lee.wp14:
Hmm. Strange. Did you do a full wipe?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] angelowi96:
Why my rom not have root access? In the magisk manager, that say magisk not installed. What can i do for solve this problem? Sorry if my english so bad
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] lee.wp14:
As said in earlier reply, Magisk is not supported / will never supports our N7000. Our N7000 has a special kernel structure, thus is incompatible with magisk's boot patcher.

Root should work out of the box, just enable it in Developer settings.

Final release should have removed Magisk Manager. Are you on the Final release (v5.8.5)?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] angelowi96:
I have try it (5.8.5), but now i use 5.8.3. In 5.8.5, my n7000 become a lag. I check in kernel adiutor, the processor just run at 800Mhz. I have try many times to changes kernel adiutor's setting, but nothing happen. Do you have sollution for this problem?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] lee.wp14:
There are some changes made to the kernel used on the final release (v5.8.5). But AFAIK 5.8.5 should be the most stable one. And ever since I use N7000, I never did any CPU/Performance optimization so I couldn't tell whether it is a problem with your Kernel Auditor or it is reporting false CPU Frequency.

I will try to check my CPU Freq using CPU-Z later and will report back.

You can try below settings :

Min:200mhz, Max: put maximum available, Gov: pegasusq, Scheduler: cfq(default), zen(if available)

And make sure in android settings, the performance profile is balance and disable per-app profiles.

If you want to try stock settings, make a clean flash of 5.8.5 (flash gapps is ok) and try to let the phone settle down for about one hour after you completed setup (or google login, in case you flash gapps) then try perform 3-5 times of restarts and wait 5-7 minutes in between restarts.

According to my experience indeed it is quite lag on first use when compared to earlier version but after few hours to let the phone settle down everything should be liquid smooth and way more smoother than earlier ones. 5.8.5 should be the smoothest one.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] angelowi96:
Okay... I'll try that rom again with your guide... Thank's for help me ?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] h9904745:
Repartitioned and flashed RROS - thanks again!

Dear lee.wp14,

Just would like to update you that, at long last (as work has been hectic after my previous enquiry), I have repartitioned my N7000 and flashed the final release of Nougat. Lagging and battery drain occur; I hope these are not persistent problems per other posts in this thread.

Thank you again,

h9904745

p.s. Sorry I did not mentioned this. In the past when I was on stock rom, quite often I used the stock power saver because during office hours, I typically only use the phone very occasionally to check WhatsApp messages and Gmail, which would still synchronise in the background even when the phone is in power saver mode. I note the current power saver would disallow background data so WhatsApp and Gmail would no longer synchronise, ie I can no longer keep the power saver on all the time. Do you know if it is possible to have a power saver that only controls the other things, eg screen brightness and so on, while keeping background data?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] lee.wp14:
I did call those power saver that controls settings as bogus one ;)

FYI other than the power saving mode that activates the orange status bar, background data shouldn't be affected.

For stock rom, while Power Saver is turned on, it adjusts the cpu frequency to save power cpu is set to 200mhz maximum)

I think it is the same for the battery performance profiles in settings>battery>battery saver and performance.

just set it to power save, and system will try to decrease cpu freq as much as possible, which functions like the one in stock.

i think it is better if you set to balance with automatic optimization, which the phone will adapts with the way you use the phone. before build 5.8.3, i always set to power save but i ended up facing many app crash due to low performance.

since 5.8.5 i tried to put balanced all time.

According to my experience, my mom's note 1 (5.8.5) which i put balanced performance profile, is able to withstand 5-7 days with average <30mins of on screen time per day.

Please allow the phone to settle down after clean flash. normally a few hours will do, but for best results maybe you need to wait for a few days. What i mean settle down is you can use the phone normally but try to minimize usage or like leave the phone alone for sometimes let it settle down if possible.

Hope this helps you!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] lee.wp14:
This is my cpu-z results. I did no tweaks or modifications to my device. Performance is fine.

Try not to tweak the cpu of this device if possible, IMO.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] lee.wp14:
Here's a little tip :

If any of you tried to pull a qs (quick setting) tile from far bottom of the qs tile edit list, you might find it disappear after your finger make its way speedily to the top. And no matter how slow you tried, its the same.

I reached out for help on the RROS G+ community and I got this trick

Turn on easy tile add at Settings, Configurations, Quick Settings, Advance

Have a Nice day :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] angelowi96:
Thank's lee... My rom now run smoothly than before. But, i have new problem. Why my internal storage not detect? It change M:/ with 0b free when i open file manager. If i save screenshot, it says can't save cz memory full. I have try many times to flash, with clean flash, but it same, not changes
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] lee.wp14:
Did you just repartitioned your device?

If yes, you may need to reinitialize /data and /sdcard0 in twrp (use the repair/resize function)

I don't really remember the exact steps, but you may try from resizing, repair, to format both the partitions until it shows proper size.

I think the hardest is to get sdcard0 to work. try wipe sdcard0 first. if it didn't work then you try play around with the resize, repair and wipe button.

I'm sorry I've forgotten the exact steps. Should have recorded it last time :/
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] angelowi96:
I never repartition my device, lee. Hard reset already i do, flash again already. But until now no changes happen. Itc make me sad ?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] lee.wp14:
I'm sorry to hear that. Nvm, I will try to help you

try format your sdcard0 as FAT in twrp. Please report back the console log output of twrp.

make sure you have the latest twrp 3.1.0-0 by bauner.

oh ya, forgot to mention : the blue logo cm file manager is not working. Please use the green built-in File Manager instead.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] angelowi96:
Now i can see my sdcard0, lee. But i lost everything of my data on sdcard0, when i connected my phone to my notebook, sdcard0 not detect on my notebook. I format it from recovery, i change xFAT format, and success. Thank's lee for your rom, for your suggestion ?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] lee.wp14:
Glad to hear that it works now.

Btw your sdcard0 is now in exFAT format?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] angelowi96:
Yes, lee. I format it with ext4 type, detect but i can't acces it. It need to format again via setting > storage when i try open it, but i found error when i format it. I try to change format from ex4 to exFAT, in recovery.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] lee.wp14:
That's good. I never thought that this ROM supports exFAT which I did love to have it supported. I want to format as exFAT but I have data in both my sdcard0 and sdcard1 so never tried it b4. Thanks for the info :good:

ext4 is mostly for system partition use. If you are familiar with Linux OS you will know it.

For our storage, mostly is FAT32 or exFAT.

Announcement on KRACK Vulnerability

Recently some of you might saw reports on KRACK Vulnerability which compromises user data even while using WPA2-AES protected networks.

Google will be releasing a patch for this vulnerability on next Security Patch, but LineageOS is fast enough to patch it by themselves.

RROS official maintainer for n7000, [MENTION=3583092]benbois[/MENTION] has confirmed that he will merge the patches released by LineageOS and will release an updated build ASAP.

Stay tuned for further announcement.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] lee.wp14:
Update 20171018

As mentioned in previous post, new build will be released to patch the KRACK Vulnerability for our n7000's RROS.

The build is released and available for download HERE.

Happy flashing :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] h9904745:
Thanks, lee.wp14. It seems to me background data would be off if I choose battery saver profile (ie orange status bar not activated). I am trying balance with automatic optimization - will see how it goes after a few days' use.

Separately, I was trying to enable root in developer options just now. Chose app and adb, but root explorer etc say the phone is not rooted. I thought RROS has Magisk built-in so I am puzzled. Must I flash something to have root? If so, can I do this using CWM (am die hard fan of it) instead of TWRP? Some online articles suggest only TWRP works, but I cannot understand why not CWM which is now the recovery loaded on my phone.

Just one more question, if I may - I saw there is a new build yesterday with security patches. If I would like to update, is flashing the whole OS the only way? I have already started installing apps; would like to avoid wiping the new data and start all over again (painful...).

Much appreciated,

h9904745
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] lee.wp14:
Hi.

Because the kernel structure of n7000 is special, and Magisk doesn't support it. So Magisk is excluded in RROS build for n7000.

Root is included, activating the option root access for Apps and ADB in Developer options should work. There's no need to flash any root zip.

Please make sure you permit su access for your apps while prompted. File manager that I'm using for root operation is FX file Manager. I'm not sure about Root Explorer (is it JRummy's?) But I suppose it should work fine.

For system update aka OTA update, just flash it on top of your current build will do. There's no need to wipe anything, but you are encouraged to wipe dalvik/art cache immediately after applying the update through recovery (means before reboot system from recovery).

Ya, i know... CWM is quite famous during those days back... that time when I'm using galaxy ace, CWM has been my main choice of custom recovery. CWM is famous for old device because CWM is simple and furthermore, the recovery partition size of old device are small. When new binaries for recovery is available, TWRP simply couldn't make its way to these devices due to the big size of TWRP compared to CWM, affacted by various factors such as its design and optional binaries which expands TWRP's functionality. But due to the increasing in size of recovery partition and the convincing feature comparison between TWRP and CWM, TWRP has overtook CWM in nowadays. And furthermore, CWM is no longer maintained.

Hope this makes you clear :) It's up to you whether to stay on CWM or TWRP. But I cannot rule out the possibility that one day CWM in built binaries will not support future zip files, given that CWM has been discontinued.

Well, I've updated to this ROM from the 6.0.1 version of RR. Won't claim that it's faster/better. It's not about that anymore with our ageing original note. What can you expect from a phone that's over 5 years old and can't even be TRIMmed properly...

Don't get me wrong. The Nougat RR is snappy, complete and stable. Most importantly, however, it's more up-to-date than many stock ROMs for recently-released devices. And that's what counts the most.

So, thanks to the RR team, to [MENTION=3583092]benbois[/MENTION] for maintaining it for the N7000 and to [MENTION=6944026]lee.wp14[/MENTION] for sharing it with us!

Burn In Protection Available in ROM

Just to share, that the latest release 18OCT2017 of RROS for n7000 do includes burn-in protection from Lineage OS.

As stated in the values.xml files of SystemUI.apk, the status bar and navbar icons (if navbar is enabled) will move by 3dp horizontally and 1dp vertically on a specific timing.

Screenshot : https://i.loli.net/2017/10/24/59ef31b80ed0c.png

Reference : https://www.lineageos.org/Changelog-14/, https://review.lineageos.org/#/c/187647/7/packages/SystemUI/res/values/cm_dimens.xml

It works almost the same way as how the Samsung S8's AOD Home Button behaves. So there should be no worries about having ghosting of status bar/navbar icons on your n7000's AMOLED display.

EDIT: NO CONFIRM!! There should be an option at Display Settings, which is missing on our device. Further checking required!

Common bug/problem for n7000

Common bug list for our device :good:

https://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s2/help/bugs-official-lineage-os-14-1-galaxy-s2-t3649329

Since I9100 and n7000 is almost identical, most bugs should be the same. Although a few bug mentioned seems like not applicable to our device. Overall, this is for reference only. And do ignore the negative remarks in the post... it hurts... :crying: we still love our note :laugh:

Few bugs or problems I can confirm by myself :

- MTP host has stopped working (mostly occur while opening Files and using OTG, I never had this error in other situation)

- battery drain after reboot (it seems weird, but indeed the battery drains. it is not false reading for most of the time, but sometimes could be false reading. just don't reboot it if possible and everything's fine)

- lags...? i'm very satisfied with my note since i change from galaxy ace, so i won't complain about lags :D

- phone shows charging while using OTG (sometimes)

- ring delay (can adjust at build.prop)

- rotation not working (sometimes, this might be ur sensor hardware problem, try give ur phone a knock)

- overheats while video playback (pls tolerate our beloved note... its been a struggle to run nougat...)

- sometimes phone won't charge up or battery drop while charging :cyclops: (don't use ur note while charging, the AMOLED screen is a first generation LED display and it drains more battery compared to new AMOLED)

However our note is great:

- waterproof for 15mins :good::good::laugh::laugh: (but you need to use alcohol clean ur usb board afterwards due to corrosion)

- from gingerbread to nougat!!

- large AMOLED display with great saturation :cool:

- YAMAHA sound chip

- dual band wifi

- stylus and 10 finger support

- Gorilla Glass protection

- noise cancellation mic

- headphone jack :cool: we can show this off to our grandsons in the future :cool:

Lets wait together for Oreo arrive on n7000 :highfive:
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] h9904745:
Dear lee.wp14,

Work has been crazy again for me of late, so I have not been able to update you until now.

So far, what I observe is that standby time is good, but the battery level falls quite quickly whenever I do anything.

Root still does not work on my N7000 so that, for example, I cannot even run the bundled file manager which reqiures root. I have tried disabling developer options and started again to no avail. I do not know whether and how you can replicate my problem for diagnosis purpose, but hope others on this thread would voice out if they have the same problem.

I also experience some of the problems identified by you in the previous post (MTP stop working, etc), but at present top on my wish list is to have root so that I can add back the stock Chinese input method (it is not superb but also not bad, and I am too used to it by now).

In any event, thank you for all you have done for me and my N7000.

Have a nice weekend,

h9904745
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] lee.wp14:
Hi, h9904745

Battery life is a bit struggling for n7000 running nougat, we can only expect to get a maximum of 3 hours on screen time in total. But Galaxy Trend which also use Cortex-A9 (Broadcom based) running nougat performs much more better than our n7000, unexpectedly.

The bundled blue CM File Manager is not working properly / completely unusable. I think you should remove that.

And root should work out of the box, provided that if you are using the latest release. If root really doesn't work, try disable root in Dev Options and follow the following procedure. Make sure there are no root management apps installed (such as SuperSU, superuser, kingroot, etc)

Download these two :

- https://mirrorbits.lineageos.org/su/addonsu-remove-14.1-arm-signed.zip

- https://mirrorbits.lineageos.org/su/addonsu-14.1-arm-signed.zip

Then flash the removal zip first, then flash the install zip.

And please don't confirm if custom recovery prompted to root your device / fix root, at any cases. The recovery inbuilt su binary will break system root. Do take note.

Please try and report back. Thanks a lot. Sorry to hear that you are having these trouble. Any users facing problems, do report to this forum, I will try my best to help you.

Also, do you mind to share with me the Chinese IME you did like to install? I'm looking for a lightweight Chinese IME (currently using Google Pinyin Input but seems not so lightweight). Thanks :)

EDIT : but if you are to place an apk into /system, you can just do it using aroma-fm (cwm) or twrp file manager.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] h9904745:
Dear lee.wp14

Many thanks for telling me about the addonSU zips; I will try the method once work spares me some time. When I do so, should / must I wipe cache and dalvik cache first?

In fact, I have not yet updated the ROM to the 18.10.2017 release. I suppose when I update, it will be as if I have started all over again so root should work? I recall you told me in a previous post to simply flash the new zip; I suppose you mean the whole 300mb file. Again, should / must I wipe cache and dalvik cache first?

Regarding Chinese keyboard, my N7000 is the Hong Kong edition and was on stock ICS ROM. I was reading the following thread for Note II which also discusses the N7000:

https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1939642

It looks like root is required and permissions will have to be properly set (which I have not yet researched how to do...). A flashable zip appears in one of the posts, but it is only for Note II and I do not know whether it will work for ours. If you can come up with an easy way to install the stock keyboard, grateful if you would educate me.

Regards

h9904745
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] lee.wp14:
Hi h9904745,

There's no need to wipe cache/dalvik cache for installation/removal of addonsu.

You may retain your data if you straight flash the ROM zip (300mb file) without wiping anything. Yes, theoretically root should work (make sure there's no any su management apps installed). You may wipe cache/dalvik cache after flashing the rom zip (recommended to wipe although optional).

Thanks for the link, but I have trouble download files from sammobile (and the dropbox link is broken :\), I'm glad if you can attached the required files here :)

AFAIK, TWRP and FX File Manager will set appropriate file permissions for all file operations automatically, so if you are using either TWRP File Manager or FX File Manager, you need no worry about setting permissions. Other apps like Root Browser by JRummy won't set permissions automatically, in that case you will need to follow the guide in the thread to set appropriate permissions.

Regards,

Shot on Galaxy Note (OPCamera Mod)

Hi guys!

I have something to share :D It's a self mod done by me : OnePlus Camera 2.4 to let it show watermark Shot on Galaxy Note instead of Shot on OnePlus!

:cool: Shot on Galaxy Note :cool:

By lee.wp14​

PS: This is extremely for fun only!!! This camera app won't work 100% perfect on our n7000. See bugs below.

Extremely for the fun of having "Shot on" watermark only!!!

*But the AF/AE Lock in video recording is useful, since focusing in video recording won't work for the built-in camera of our n7000's RROS/LOS.

Screenies :

Attached :o

What works :

Still Shot, Video Shot

Bugs (won't fix) :

- Front cam won't work

- Sometimes camera shows blank (restart app will fix)

- DPI issue (it only supports mdpi and xxhdpi, so the dimens are all incorrect, thus will show large UI elements)

Install :

Download attached apk and install.

Press thanks if you like it :D

Dear lee.wp14

I have now learnt how to extract files from a ROM image. The attached files are, I think, the two corresponding to the stock Samsung Chinese IME on ICS.

Unfortunately, I have tried the method described in the other thread (placed the files in system locations and set permissions as suggested) but have not yet been able to figure out how to activate it. I hope you can!
