[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MarSal53:
Preface: I'm old man and this is my first post feeling exhausted after reading topics I don't fully understand. Please bear with me.

My trusty old Note 2 has had some issues that made me to look for a replacement Note 2 (I spare you for the reasons why still Note 2). Few days ago I won an eBay auction and received an unlocked GT-N7100 supposed to be new.

The very first I did was install of Phone Info Samsung app. This app told my new phone was rooted and Firmware region was Hong Kong. I did a test phone call to my friend: OK, worked normal. Then I took several screenshots of Phone Info's reports, and did the same on my old Note 2 for comparison.

My main concern was to unroot this phone to ensure some for me essential apps would function on it after migration from my old Note 2. I followed online guide and successfully flashed with the H-K firmware N7100ZSUFNJ2. I understood this same region version was required but later I could flash firmware of my choice, the same Nordic I have on my old.

After reboot I tried to make phone call: Not registered on network. I thought first this problem appeared because of firmware and downloaded and flashed Nordic N7100XXSFQA1: the same network problem. The SIM card is the same I use on my old Note 2. More search led me to this possible solution: "How to fix not registered on network" (https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2745274)

Unfortunately flashing MODEM.tar.md5 didn't solve my problem. So far I had not paid attention to the different IMEI on the label vs dialing *#06# / displayed by Phone Info. This different IMEI was the same before my unrooting process. How come I could make phone call despite this error, it's beyond me?

Another issue on this new phone is that when S-Pen is inserted it claims pen is detached, and when pulled out the S-note won't appear. How come, can be solved?

Please experts, help me to solve this problem. I am ready to supply more info if required.

First thing I recommend is booting into download mode to confirm the model number. Download will show the actual model number.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MarSal53:
You mean this: GT-N7100, it's product name? First line under Odin mode
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
Did you try flashing the latest gt-n7100 rom for Hong Kong since that is the firmware that came with the phone?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MarSal53:
Yes, I did successfully.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
The latest ROM I see for Hong Kong is qa2: https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/galaxy-note-/GT-N7100/TGY/download/N7100ZSSFQA2/126556/
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MarSal53:
I understood the firmware version should be the same in order to unroot successfully. Right now downloading the linked version. Thank so far.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MarSal53:
After flashing with linked FW

So I downloaded the file you linked to. Here are screenshots of Phone INFO, on the left before any flashing, on the right after this latest. Need for any other screens?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
The bootloader on the left is older at nj2 mixed with qa2. Weird that there is no CSC information.

The picture on the right is more consistently qa2.

The phone you purchased was definitely not new as the IMEI from the dialler should match the IMEI on the phone's printed label.

If flashing the latest firmware doesn't solve the calling issue, not sure what else to suggest other than trying firmware for a different country or a custom ROM.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MarSal53:
You asked for CSC info, well here three screenshots. On the left my eBay Note 2 initially, the red in middle is my own Note 2, and on the right eBay after all flashing so far.

EDIT: I forgot to insert SIM on ebay Note2 before screenshot. When inserted the MobileOperator reads elisa / 24405. Interesting, the "24421" missing. Saunalahti was subsidiary of elisa, now merged to main company.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] h_maharaj:
I've read that the differing IMEI issue can be cause if you flashed firmware that contains a lower version modem than what you already had. You can try flashing the latest bootloader and modem for this device with Odin (download in this post). Extract the .rar file and place the file starting with BL in the BL tab and CP in the CP tab in Odin.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MarSal53:
I followed your suggestion and flashed but unfortunately this did not solve my network problem.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
The CSC changed to Hong Kong because that's what was in the rom you flashed.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] h_maharaj:
Try flashing the latest firmware for Nordic region: https://updato.com/firmware-archive-select-model?record=9354FAC415BF11E7963AFA163EE8F90B
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MarSal53:
What puzzles me is that this eBay Note before unrooting gave empty fields on Firmware's CSC Code and CSC Country. I'm here flashing the Nordic ROM back again.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MarSal53:
Thank you for this, but again after flashing network problem stays. Well, it's midnight here in Helsinki, had to go to bed....
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
After flashing a stock ROM, are you able to try other sim cards in the phone?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MarSal53:
Search result on tampered IMEI

Curious as I am I tested the IMEI displayed by dialing *#06# on three databases. One couldn't tell, two others told this phone were Ericson A3618s. Wow!

On the other hand, Phone INFO's General claims this Note 2 were White while in reality Titanium grey.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
Have you made any further progress?

Is it possible that the imei on the battery label has been blacklisted which is why the motherboard was programmed with another imei?

Try entering both imei numbers here: https://www.mobileincanada.com/
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MarSal53:
Thanks for caring about this problem still. The Canadian site looks more about unlocking. My previous post told about search result from http://www.imeipro.info/ stating the imei on label is clean. I just re-visited another database for second time http://www.imei.info and there I had to pay for Black list check which takes up to 48 hours.

BTW I have kept eye on eBay and wonder how Note 2s are flooding there... Although the seller won't accept returns I wrote request to return in hope eBay takes this as resolution... have to wait a couple of days before that process may start.

Simple quick guide to rooting Android p

Download both files from my drive

Go to twrp and flash zip and reboot. (Here's the pain in the butt part)

When u get to boot animation it will freeze

After like 2 minutes hold volume down and power to reboot to bootloader

Reboot. I personally turn off then manually turn device back on by holding power button.

When device starts back up install apk as it won't show after flashing zip.

For now su hide don't work App is 5.6.2 the latest version

Too late :), topjohnwu released magisk v16.1 here https://xdaforums.com/apps/magisk/beta-magisk-v13-0-0980cb6-t3618589 Magisk manager isn't flashing for some reason so you have to go into the actual file path inside the zip. /common/magisk.apk and install it manually. The module devs need to update their code, but mine should still work.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] joeeboogz:
Just noticed well If u need apk still it's in my drive along with zip
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] NexusS4gFreak:
How do access your drive? I tried to go the Magisk route and it hung on the Google boot screen with the loading bar and eventually rebooted itself
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Alekos:
can someone just provide the few steps in installing latest magisk?

I booted, then flashed latest twrp-3.2.1-2-marlin.img (making sure no security on phone)

then flashed latest magisk 1610

and didn't boot

now I'm stuck....
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] mattwheat:
I did the same thing. I couldn't get it to boot back to my phone but I could boot back into TWRP. So I just wiped then restored a backup I had. Try that. Or worse case scenario just boot to bootloader and flash the factory.img again. That should over write anything you have on there now and allow you to boot successfully.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] kingbri:
This may be a little late, but go back into twrp and flash the magisk uninstaller located in the official forum. Then reboot. Then reinstall magisk again
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] petiolarissean:
This so simple even newbie like me did it.

Flash 16.1 magisk threw twrp and reboot.Use official Magisk.That easy!I was rooted!

I was able to install xposed Oreo and read as following

Android P 8.1 SDK 27 so rebooted but stuck on G logo updating,Any ideas get around it.By theory should work correct?
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Jackaroop:
You need to use Xposed for P, which isn't even the roadmap I'm sure lol
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] x31234:
If I flash to Android P would j be able to root my pixel 2 xl even if it's a Verizon varient?

No.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] AlPoo:
are we fastboot flashing twrp after the beta OTA, or should that custom recovery still be intact?

loading magisk using the manager, or SU, or what have you?

finally, list of the files i should have on hand if things go wrong? have the may image if i need to re load that. ill try to find the P-DP2 image available as well, but I'm not sure of all the root files I'll need.

*yes i could wait for a comprehensive guide, but im here in the meantime*
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] paco8:
Also waiting for this. Just searched for it but it seems the full image files are not online yet. And I don't know if twrp or the ability to root will still be there if I just uninstall magisk via the uninstaller zip in twrp, and then install the OTA from today?

EDIT:

fastboot the full dp2 image

do set-up process (don't set a PIN)

fastboot twrp 3.2.1.2 img

install twrp 3.2.1.2 zip

reboot recovery

install magisk 16.4 (16.0 won't work)

done

Tested with adaway and it works fine. I expected it to be harder to be honest but I'll take it.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Jerreth:
i simply booted to twrp 3.2.0.0, installed twrp 3.2.1-2 from a usb otg as 3.2.0.0 wont decrypt, rebooted to twrp, flashed magisk 16.4 and booted android and was rooted.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] mbonus:
I did the same but booted to 3.2.1-2 and it worked as well
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] madsurgeon:
I must be doing something wrong, DP2 just refuses to boot after flashing Magisk 16.4, keep having to flash stock boot.img to get it to boot
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] onesolo:
sometimes it takes a second or more reboots to get into the OS.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] tauio111:

Lol, what a worthless little ****bag, I did do a quick search, without good results and not enough time to dig around through everything. Ironically this very post came up a few times while googling (1st result a couple times too). However there wasn't an answer in it because someone was a little too lame.

So for all others that may stumble across this looking for the same answer:

I did and it says 8.3mp or something as the highest as well as that i install the resurrection remix rom 5.8.5 by zack again and i have install vulkan 430 gpu no glitches not crashes everything is perfect i really did like the aex it had many features but so does the resurrection remix rom what would be in my favour if you developers started working on oreo or give us an update

oh oops my bad i think i downloaded the other camera from the other rom lol well its ok i was going to swap rom anyway due to the persistent popping up of the bluetooth sharing not working
[Xperia Z5 Android Development] EnesSastim:
Did you wipe data before flashing?
[Xperia Z5 Android Development] ColdIllyrian:
Yes i did bro but i think its because i installed vulkan 430 which didnt really work with this rom however it made the resurrection rom smoother than ever and possibly faster and most importantly no heat ;)

Just because you don't see any activity doesn't mean there's none ! :)

In the background the kitakami device trees (drivers, etc.) are currently being brought together to minimize superfluous files, etc.

That's the current priority, oreo and other changes will follow later ...

At least for me all newer non-Stock ROMs are pointless since battery performance suffers significantly (also due to lack of DSEE HX, Video stabilization, etc.) thus I'm sticking to modded Stock Marshmallow ...

[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] яι¢αя∂σ:
Noticed this problem just yesterday on my 10, bought 2nd hand 2 months ago.

It has (and i knew) the battery problem, like over 25% overnight discharge.

The phone was already soff and personalized from the previous owner.

As oreo viper news got me to upgrade to oreo (by ruu nougat and ota to oreo), when i open recovery just noticed this error.

This file (/sys/class/power_supply/battery/capacity) on other rooted device just has current battery percentage (just a number like 52 as 52%)so i just don't understand the error.

Going to try:

root and twrp on the device; edit file permissions, ruu again to see if it makes any good.... also wold like to get oreo 401 europe in exe format (still searching np)

If i won't get back here in the mean time, just quote me to get my attention to see if i got any news regarding this error.

the "E:can't find /sys/class/power_supply/battery/capacity" error on the stock Recovery Mode, being discussed from the beginning of this thread...

Kind regards to all!

EDIT:

So, had stock Oreo 401 (Europe) and on stock recovery there is this error above.

Put twrp on it, rooted it and started the phone with stock FW rooted. With a root explorer went to the directory of this file "capacity" (in twrp the file manager interpreted this

"capacity" file as a folder and it could not open it) and it gave an error opening this file with a editor. According to the file explorer this file was corrupted, had no permissions and was as if the file system had an error there. Did not do anything to this file nor the file system.

Gone to twrp, wiped everything to be able to flash correctly a custom Oreo FW. After reboot, as custom fw was rooted already, just installed a root explorer and to my surprise the file "capacity" was seen by the explorer as a file containing data, had permissions and after open it it had the current battery capacity.

On stock oreo and on custom oreo, the battery behaved the same way. On custom oreo, disabled many background services (all google related also) and still had the same battery discharge.

My next step (in a few days) is to downgrade to MM and check the battery behavior, see if it discharges as much as on N or O but my guess is that its needed to replace the battery. Just need to get a official battery as there are around many fake htc 10 batteries. As i do mobile repairs i know how bad (horrible) some batteries are and some may even damage the phone behind repair! Not to tell about the problem opening our incredibly beautiful but very hard to disassemble HTC 10!

Take care!
