[Q] KingDroid ICS NoteMania Edition v3.0+OPTIONAL MOD S3 Problem

Any bors here have problem with KingDroid ICS NoteMania Edition v3.0+OPTIONAL MOD S3 ? Mine hangs & reboot itself so many times.
It happens only when i press buttons too fast like pressing the back buttons fast to return to front page, or scrolling up & down, going into a page the exit again then immediately going into another page. This type of fast action will cause the screen to hang up then foolowed by reboot.
Tried it many times it hangs & reboot itself! It's as if the phone is slow in refreshing the page or slow in registering the entry of our inputs till the screen hangs up. Sometimes lucky it'll juz show an error message saying the apps is not responding need to close, then u have to press on the apps icon to start again. If the screen hangs for too long it'll reboot itself...
Other than that it's a great & beautiful ROM. If this issue canbe addressed it'll be 1 of the best ROMS around.
PS.
Sorry i can't post on the KingDroid thread itself a i'm a newbie & had not clocked enough post to post anything in the Developement section. So i have to post it here to address the issue i'm facing with this great ROM hoping the creator can have a solution CHEERS!!!

Only wipe cache only bro? I already downloaded the Speedmod CWM version. I know how to flash using CWM like the method u describe but i'm not sure need to do full wipe or not. I'm on AbyssNote 4.2 now so it's safe to full wipe then flash speedmod kernel?
I also downloaded the Odin version but the file is in zip file so i dunno juz flash with the zip file or i need to extract to zlmage then flash with Odin???

Ya its safe to flash wid cwm
Jst wipe cache partition n dalvik cache

Am running Speedmod K3-3 with Kingdroid v3 and is running great.
Take care not to flash Kingdroid after flashing Speedmod as it will overwrite the kernel with Franco v5.
Also do not flash with Odin as it will increase your binary count. I flashed multiple ROMs and kernels with CWM and my Note still shows Custom Binary:No and ROM: Samsung Official.

[Q] How can i install custom ICS roms on my N7000? I tried Everything !!

Hey Guys If anyone can help i would Greatly Appreciate it !!! I cant seem to install any ICS custom Roms. I came from a Ginger Bread rooted stock rom. I used Odin to flash my N7000 to ICS 4.0.3 stock ( Baseband XXLPT-Build #XXPLY) got it rooted and now using Kernel Franco#5. I tried installing Kingdroid.V4 or RocketRom.V7 ICS roms by using Abyss Kernel4.2 at CWM. I followed every step on their Forums but for some reason at installing the rom, the flashing of installing it only took 15-20 seconds installing the rom and my phone states it "Completed" the install, once i restart the phone it stays on the "Samsung Note N700 Logo" what am i doing wrong ?? Can anyone help ?

This worked for me. From the stock ICS LQ2 , i flash CWM.zip + SU... .zip to get root, then flash a safe kernel, afterwards, I flashed the custom rom from CWM and worked for me. As long as the "safe ics kernel" has mmc_cap disabled, as it is said in the OP, than i just went for it , so all is good now without any flashing abyss... Hope this helps, or gives you a boost.
Cheers.

Check the videos in my sig....you should get the answers fir everything :good:

You have to installed them over a Stock Rooted GB rom...not ICS...

Hey thanks guys for the information. I will check this out once i get home. I hit the thanks button for the both of you's. Cheers

I got a video guide in my channel if you want to try it.

Also, remember the issues around flashing with ICS ROMS especially if running the LPY kernel. The best guide I have found on how to do this is the one from the Rocket ROM team. Have pasted a link to the thread (scroll to the bottom of the page for process).

it seems i can only flash through odin when it comes to ics cutom roms... does anyone know on how to flash these roms through odin? since i cant find a way to convert these roms to md5 format for odin to recongize.

Thanks for the help but i tried that method and its still not installing the ics rom correctly...No one knows if this is possible to flash through odin ?

I face this problem before.. the GT-N7000 will just stay on n not go off for long long time
what i did.. when i see that screen stuck n i confirm it is stuck.. then i press vol up+power+home to reboot into recovery....
when rebooted u will see abssy 4.2 is load up.. from there you install rom n then reboot system..
it should work

I tried that method too but no luck. It installs but only took 15 seconds and it stated it was done installing, once rebooted it stood on the logo again. I have no clue as to why its not installing these ICS roms correctly.....

Litening rom does come with .tar.md5 format, maybe you can try flashing that wih PC Odin since you're comfortable with it. Link www.liteningrom.com.
1. Download the file .rar into your PC and unzip until you get .tar.md5
2. Flash using PC Odin. It will NOT trigger yellow triangle (I've tested it)
3. Your phone will reboot to STOCK recovery. Just select reboot system and WAIT. Kinda long...but just wait until it's done.
4. You can proceed to flash kernel with custom recovery by using Mobile Odin, e.g. speedmod, etc

Thanks kopitalk for the info. It worked like a charm through odin. I would of liked some of the Samsung galaxy S3 modifications on this rom but at least it worked like a charm with that Md5 File. Thanks button hit !! and thanks for the tip Thai Damen, Going back to ginger bread and starting from scratch is too much to do altogether lol

Question
Hey guys. Does anyone know any ICS roms out there that's flashable through Odin besides the lightning rom?

Dude before you brick your phone.. Go download notecore kernel and flash it via pc odin... After that you will see a yellow triangle on the boot screen.. Do not worry about it for now..
Then in the boot screen press volume up+home+power once in CWM wipe data and reboot
Once booted in Android download triangle away app and install it then follow steps to remove the yellow triangle
After that download any desired rom.. As you are gonna be in a safe kernel (yes notecore its a safe kernel) follow all the developer's steps to install the desired rom
It will basically be put the rom in the internal sd, boot to cwm (power+volume up+home) wipe data /wipe cache, choose zip from internal sd and flash the rom
REMEMBER YOU CAN ONLY DO THIS FROM A SAFE KERNEL..

As far as I can see, you have some sort of corruption in your emmc or some other partition. If i were you, to be on the safe side i would have taken all the trouble to start again from scratch. Flashing a GB rom with Odin with a .pit file and re-partitioning enabled should wipe your note clean (dont worry no brick with pc odin) . Then flash a "safe" ics kernel either by pc odin (safer and you can remove the triangle and custom flash count by triangle away app) or by cwm.zip (use only once while flashing kernel). Then choose the custom ics rom that you want to install and flash it from the new kernel recovery (no need for abyss kernel etc) with full wipe (data,cache,dalvik). Also if you face problems go through this thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1732903
P.S. - I highly recommend starting from scratch by re-partitioning via Odin with correct pit file.
Press the thanks button if helped.

What he saying you?
he says dont wipe on ICS, still you want to install ICS?
You need GB to wipe OR at least safe kernel to solve your problem.
Read again this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1829078
what i said you? you have to wipe cache and data just after flashing GB ROM. All your error was just due to that. Just dont flash and flash without understanding, you have already bricked one time.
Really Read more before doing anything.

Those error was normal after flashing GB ROM, that i told you earlier too, at that time you didn't follow instruction, you have to wipe that time.
Now again you wiped on ICS?? Even after you already bricked one time.

Experience the same thing as the thread starter but what I did was flash using Abyss Kernel then I wiped factory data - cache then installed KJ1 Gingerbread ROM. Then once Im at the GB rom I again re-flash the Abyss Kernel just to fix the static blank screen (dunno if thats normal). Then after im able to access the phone restart to recovery and flash the ICS rom that I want to install.
@denny love your comment about the iphone

Do you know how to use PC Odin to flash Roms ?
If it so then just download a GB rom from ketans thread and put your phone in download mode.
Connect it to your PC and flash it.After flashing go to Recovery and wipe cache.
That is all I can suggest you in this situation.

Just add one more thing to sahil's note.
If successfully flash gb.
And keep away from any flashing till you dont fully understand basics.

SGS I9000 too slow!

Hy everybody,
I have got a big problem with my i9000: it doesn't start up very properly i mean it takes a lot to start the S logo animation, the animation is very slow (really low fps) and it usually stuck at the end of the animation (only once i managed to arrive to the menu where you have to choose the language but the touchscreen was not responding). Even CWM recovery is slow! There is a lag while choosing the options. I also tried to reflash using stock Samsung ROMS such as XXJPU and XXJW7 but i get the same issue. Also tried to install custom ROM via CWM, i get the speed back but touch doesn't work! I have already searched on the site for this issue and got a thread that had exactly the same problem but didn't manged to get out from this situation (here is the thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1422634, it's exactly the same issue!).
I have been flashing and repearing android devices for years and this is the first time i meet this kind of issue! Maybe it is a bootloader problem or motherboard, but i ask you experts before getting in troubles =)
Sorry for my bad english :victory:

I think it is a hardware problem mate(since you flashed too many roms...)
Rooting wont help you too so...

Nope, but you must not try to reboot after formatting it, . You need to power down, do a battery pull and flash a ROM package with boot loader for phone to function

Uhm every rom i tried via CWM, and even the stock rom when it gets loaded, doesn't give me a working touchscreen. This problem happened last month too and after flashing a lot of roms i managed to solve it in the end, but i was just lucky because i didn't know what the device had and i solved just flashing random ROMS and getting solved with XXJW7. That's why i'm not so sure it is a hardware problem =(

Try Elite JB RC12.1, if working on jw7, do a android backup, then you'll have to flash JVU 1st, if touch screen works then it'll work with the JB rom, here's a trick, instructions are there but do this. Backup everything to pc, take out sdcard, before flash jvu, do 3 wipes, data, cache, dalvik, then go to usb mount, format 5 items there, boot, data, cache, system, sdcard ( last wipes everything). Now do 3 wipes again, yes again, flash JVU, root, transfer Rom to sdcard, 3 wipes, do usb mount, then 4 formats (not sdcard), 3 wipes again, flash JB rom. If bootloop, no bigger it just flashed kernel, take battery out, wait back in recovery flash Rom. You'll be on JB.

Why dont you try flashing your original firmware via Odin with "repartition" ticked. Once that is done, let your phone boot and see if there's and lag. If lag still persists, go to CMW, format system, boot and data and restart your phone and then check again

Hey!! I tried various ROM combinations and it worked for a few months. Although even after a few days, the problem would reappear and I was forced to flash again(it started working after flashing about 30-50 ROMs). Finally, a month back, I came across the same problem again but this time, nothing worked. After hitting my head on the wall for a month, I finally gave it to the Samsung ppl and they figured that the problem was with the touchscreen!!(zoinks!!) They will replace the touchscreen and it would cost me $145(8,000INR , expired warranty). They'll return it in 4 days. I'll post more when I get my SGS back.

Hmm, looks to me, you must have flashed something wrong/flashing process goes wrong. I would suggest this 'solution':
1. Flash a new recovery system. I suggest the latest TWRP recovery or flash the latest CWM. To me, CWM has given me lots of problems. You can flash it through computer or through CWM using their flashable zip.
2. Once then, wipe everything! Data, cache, dalvik cache.
3. Next, format the system! If you formatted system, you will lose your current rom. Meaning the phone will not boot up until you install/flash a ROM.
4.Install necessary stuff like Google Apps
Done! Things should be working right now. I had problems like you, my phone sometimes takes 2-5 minutes to boot.
I'm using the Samsung Galaxy S Plus I9001. So, I flashed Acro86's ICS rom. Super smooth.
Hope I helped you!

Hi, I have exactly the same problems.
I guess it's also touch error, I already changed it once and after the year and then started having problems as it was pressed alone, stuck all the time and stopped working. As I was reading and testing, I think I'll buy again the touch.

[Q] from rooted version 2.2 to rooted version 4.0 or more?

Hi,
I was redirected to this part of the forum. A friend of mine rooted my samsung mobile Galaxy S I9000 with a android 2.2 version. I cannot contact him anymore to help me with the update and I am really a newbie in this rooting world. So, I am coming on this forum to have some advice. I read information on rooting your device, in which everything is explained very well, but could not find information on how to update once a device was rooted (probably I did not search in the right place). What I did so far is:
1) Taking backup of my pics (by manually drag and drop the folder on my pc), SMS and call logs (with sms backup + app), syncronized my contacts with gmail so that I can recover them later on and backup the music folder. I installed backup Titanium to back up my apps on my SD card.
But now, I am stuck with some questions (could you guide me where to find the information?):
1) Which most recent version of Android is supported on the device I have? Which version will work best?
2) Is there important information that I forgot to back up? + I have a problem with the backup Titanium app. It could reach my root in the beginning, but then the Superuser app updated the binary and from then on my titanium app got stuck when getting access to the root. Any idea how to solve this? Install an older version of the bin.file? How to do that exactly? thanks! => I could fix this problem by installing an older version of superuser in CW recovery. If others have problems with this issue, I can provide help from now on
3) Is there a guide with step by step procedure on which files I have to download on my pc and which procedure to follow? Or could you advice me some useful links?
thanks!

1) there is android 4.2.2 available for this amazing device
2) you propably forgot to backup efs folder
3)
- 1) follow this guide to get android 2.3.6 to your device: http://www.darkyrom.com/index.php?threads/odin-darkyrom-10-2-resurrection-gt-i9000.4272/
- 2) follow this guide to get android 4.2.2 (cm 10.1) to your device after: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Install_CM_for_galaxysmtd
- 3) now you can flash most of the roms you find in i9000 android development forum. i personally use slimrom

copy /efs! backup ur imei n md5 in efs first! copy da whole efs file! or do nandroid backup.
READ N FOLLOW CAREFULLY here

considering u already done flashing Sammy n CF
prepare for ROM & kernel(optional) hunt! go to dev section and choose which JB u wanted.download it together with cm9.1.0 n copy to root of internal sd.
n make sure to flash cm9.1.0 stable from cyanogenmod website (galaxymtd) first from 2.3.6, first flash will bootloop, go back to recovery with 3 combo button. flash again n dont leave recovery.
after done flashing twice (if flash ended too quick, then flash again). direct flash 4.1/4.2 chosen rom, twice (first flash will come up with error, juz ignore it flash again (bootloop) recovery again n flash again

A bit off topic, but i didnt want to start a new thread for that...
My question is: is there an android 4.0 version with full touchwiz?
I mean the whole tweaks as slide the contact to message/call and so on
I only foubd CM 9 based ROMs which are themed to look like touchwiz and had the launcher...but i miss the sms app interface, smilies, slide to call things
Is there a port from the SGS2?

I followed the guide you mentioned here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2149455
in which they install that JVU ROM... then they say at the end that you have to unmount SD card (but that option was gray in my case) and wipe the USB storage and then reboot in recovery and do those 4 wipes, what I did, and then he mentioned that you could install your custom ROM, so I put the version of slimrom 4.2.2 on my sd card and launched it for installation.
However, the procedure started, but after a few seconds already my phone rebooted and now it is stuck at the logo of Semaphore...
What did I wrong? And what should I do?

Should I shut down my phone and try to put it in download mode again to put the JVU rom on it again via odin? is that the best strategy? Or should I do something else? and if that would work, what is then the best procedure to avoid such situations again?

nope, u did rite, but also wrong, ok, read carefully here....
flashing for upgrade is easy if u follow carefully, when in GB, after flashing CF ROOT, flashing to 4.0 (cm9) first (take da zip from cyanogenmod website) but luckily ur on 2.3.6 JVU (if u follow da link i gave), so it will be safe (safe procedure will be GB-ICS-JB), first flash will bootloop, second flash (sometimes) will occur error n third flash will succeed, which means u hav to flash twice or thrice or maybe 4 times! if its bootloop, go to recovery back by 3 button combo (its da matter of when u release da combo button, release it rite after u see da first white bootsplash)
bootloop cause by changing da partition tp ext4, its common
but if u already try to reach recovery n failed most times, u need to flash back firmware n cf root.

Ok, thanks!!!! this worked!!! I justed flashed cm9 and it works. So, if I understand well now, I can just return in recovery mode and install from zip from sd card to cm10 and then for instance to slimrom? Or between 'two' flashes, I need to follow the last part of the procedure in the link you gave me? So:
"Now, what I do now is go into :
Settings > SD Card and Storage > Unmount SD and Wipe that and then at the bottom Wipe Format USB Storage
Enable USB Debugging > Plug in Phone
Window should open up showing your phone Directory..
Copy over your ROM that you want
Shut Down Phone
Reboot into Recovery (Vol UP - Menu - Power)
Wipe the 4 things (probably know these... you should do)
Data / Factory Reset
Cache Partition
Go to Advanced > OK
Dalvik Cache
Battery Stats
Go Back > OK
To move Up or Down > Use the Left Side Volume Rocker Switches with Menu to OK Action
Install your Custom ROM from Zip Card that you want..."
OR: can I just go to recovery mode and do install from zip without doing that procedure with "wipe" etc?
Just to know, as I am just a newbie in these things!!! But I want to thank you once again for the clear explanations and the good help!!!!

juz flash mate , its easy, da important thing is to follow da sequence, thats all, juz flash, wiping cache or resetting juz for changing ROM. not upgrading
juz FLASH it
GB-ICS (twice)(do not leave recovery after second flash)-(any custom JB ROM u choose(twice or thrice))(make sure u already put da zip file in internalsd). dont need any wiping.
but FLASH AT UR OWN RISK,remember that.
n yes, recovery need hardbutton except TWRP recovery.

Thanks!!!! Just one small question. I just flashed CM10 in recovery mode and first flash gave error, second went well. Then while still being in recovery mode I directly flashed slimrom and that went well from the first time. Do you always flash a second time to make sure that things went well or this is ok then?

as i already said, flash more than 2 times when upgrading, juz upgrading process. GB-ICS-JB (CM7-CM9-CM10/10.1) is upgrading process.
changing ROM not necessarily need double flashing, but u can do it if ur not satisfy whether da ROM already flashed or not

ok, thanks!!! no, everything is working fine with this slimrom, except for google play that does not seem to open once I install it. It opens and closes directly... but I guess there are persons that had the same problem. will have to check the forum for a solution

Hmmm, is probably because I get this error when starting slimrom: invalid IMEI number...I flashed it a second time, but it gave me the same error...

Which gapps have you flashed? Slimbean needs a special package, you find it under slimroms.net.

I will have a look there for that google play problem.
More problematic is that problem of IMEI. When I flashed from CM 9 to CM10 I did not do that wipe of cache and data as suggested above (the reply came later on), and then I flashed slimrom. That I forgot to wipe between CM9 and CM10, can that be the cause of wrong IMEI now? Is the solution now, to wipe cache and data, to flash again CM 10 and to flash then slimrom again?
Or should I just leave everything like that and do a recovery of my efs folder? If yes, any link for this?
