Has any one tried installing AOSP Helper on Note's stock rom with 2.3.6
Does it installs successfully and no harm to phone?
I am thinking to install it, but before that I want to take the complete backup, what is suggested to take complete backup if i have to restore everything as it is.

Ok, just to update all, I tried and it got installed successfully, though I had taken a nandroid backup.

I've researched several forums for help with my GPS lock but I would like a little guidance from someone more experienced before I proceed with a fix. I'm comfortable flashing and I'm starting from the following configuration:
Starting Point:
1. Rooted running CM-10.2-20131016-Nightly, Baseband 1.00.20.0913_3, Kernel 3.410-CM-g5afe42c [email protected] #1
2. Performed a Nandroid backup with CWM Recovery v6.0.3.6
My questions are as follows:
1. Do I need to S-Off to fix this issue, and if so, what's the most efficient way of doing this starting from my CM nightly build and CWM version?
2. I have GPS status from the Android Market on there already and I've cleared GPS data. Do I need to reflash stock ROM to download the new agps data or can I do it from CM?
3. If I have to reflash stock to perform this GPS trick, will my backup restore everything back to the way it is, including installed applications and settings, or do I have to restore all my preferences, accounts, etc.
I've been lucky thus far with ROM flashing and never needed to restore a backup so I'm unclear the level of effort after a stock to CM swap maneuver. Thanks in advance for the help.
:good:

if you restore a backup everything will be the same as it was when you backed it up, settings, data, etc. all the same
Is there anyone else out there with this same problem or a solution?

Make a backup of current cm in twrp....... everything but storage options...... flash sense based rom...... update prl/profile(since your already in sense) go into maps while on data connection(found that works better than using wi-fi) maps will get a gps lock.... reboot into twrp restore backup of cm and than i always fix permissions and wipe dalv and cache... reboot into cm and profit hope this helps, never had a problem with gps when doing this.
**edit** a backup in twrp will back everything in the os up......apps....texts....settings....everything

A few questions on your procedure:
1. Will any sense based ROM work or do I need to use an RUU with stock recovery?
2. Can I perform this procedure with S-On, which is my current state?
If this works successfully, I will write a small and detailed guide for other people to use. Thanks.

1) any sense based will work.
2) not sure if the one is the same way with s-on.... but if so you will have to extract the boot.img from the rom and flash that via adb in bootloader than flash the rom in twrp.
Suggestion...... Go s-off your phone makes life simpler and makes playing more fun and much more safe

Hi. I wanna ask about the CWM.
Let say i now backup the 4.1root (/stock), then i :
1) flash/update to 4.3 166 stock, can i recover it back to 4.1 if i dont want to use 4.3?
2) flash to any ROM, can i recover it back to the backup i did?
my question is simple, just if i update, can i recover it back to the old firmware or not.
thx

Not sure how you did your backup or how reliable it is, and I am not sure that backups can delete your 4.3 existing cache, etc (leading you to a hybrid hung system)...others more experience may chip in.
In my case, I backup appz and data (only) using titanium.
I updated to 4.3 or customised ROMs. Didn't like them and downgraded it back to 4.1 and re-rooted each time (as long as you have the full original 4.1 FTF file). Then restore my apps...
There are a couple of tutorials on "downgrading"...

Hi all I am from India and I got this Mi3 phone a while back in august. Now i have never updated the phone and its in version MIUI-KXDMIBE16.0.
i am very satisfied with it and I have never wanted to update as of now. battery life is great. Not i've seen that the newer update provides more ram space and so on. I want to update to the new version. But problem is that If i dont like it I want to comeback to this (v16) version. i have looked online and no one seems to have the stock rom of the mi3 v16. If I update it means I can never come back to this rom only version 15 or version 18 is available on net.
So here are my questions
1. can i make a stock backup from my existing phone? If yes how? (I need to upload a copy to the forum also seen a couple of people asking for it)
2. if stock is not possible can i use any other recovery to backup this current rom and revert back to it? if yes how?
Use cwm recovery to backup and restore a nandroid backup.
stock?
