[Q] TriangleAway

Can anyone confirm TriangleAway can be used on the leaked ICS for the Galaxy note?
Chanfire said some user reported it did in his Galaxy S2 thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1494114, but I want to double check before using it.

Worked fine for me using PC odin.

Forget about Odin. Just install the app normally and it should work. It did for me and countless others: I've yet to hear someone reporting a problem with the process.

Yup triangle away works perfectly. Go ahead use it

If m not wrong the triangle that you get when you press volume down + home button + power button then it is a warning sign that you gonna make changes which are not supposed to be made as per the manufacturer. There shouldn't be a triangle in the bottom when you reboot you Note and where it says before loading the boot animation Samsung Galaxy Note GT N7000. If its there then it gets fixed by Triangle Away.
CHeers!

Yeap, that triangle is just a warning to be careful with download mode.
Anyway, I can now confirm the app indeed works with the Note. I just used it, no more triangle and cero counts in download mode.
Thank you everybody. Specially Chainfire!

Thanks chainfire by clicking his thanks button and everyone who have helped you. keeps the community and motivation ticking

i never had triangle on boot screen.. my counter was 1 but when i used this apk counter set to 0 & triangle appears on Download mode

I will suggest you read what is written in above posts carefully. And if u are still apprehensive then go ahead find a stock non rooted note and go to download mode in tht and see if the triangle is there or not.
Thanks

Triangle only in download mode or on every booting?
b'coz download triangle is normal.

For clarity:
A brand new stock out of the box note will show a yellow triangle in download mode. This is perfectly normal, and is not a problem.
Triangleaway and other methods are intended to remove the yellow triangle that CAN appear on your regular boot screen - NOT the download mode screen.

Thanks for the help....hope he understands....i have been trying to tell him the same thing from that time

I have a problem. Everytime I try to run the application, it force closes when I'm about to clear my binary count. I tried it on an older version, 1.10, which worked before but now that also FCs. I'm on AOSP based on Milestone by eaglerazor123.
Anybody have an idea how to go about the problem? my binary count is an 2.
And also, everytime I try to flash a new ROM, it either hangs up during the installation or I get a black screen after the Samsung logo ( with the yellow triangle). Is that in anyway related?
Thank you. Hope someone can help me.

Sounds to me that you don't have proper root. Why don't you use any Explorer with root permissions and try to paste and/or delete something from your system folder? Tell us what happens.

Current ICS CWMR is not working as it should, that's a known issue. If you want to go back to GB, for instance, first you have to flash a GB kernel to get its CWMR, reboot recovery, then do your stuff (wipes, flashing a new Rom, restore etc.)

So CWMR indeed has an issue? Good to know! I flashed Imilka's aosp then wanted to come back to ics leak and got the same error in recovery. I thought I was loser for not doing it right haha.
I'll look for a thread to flash another recovery so I can flash some roms

[Q] Concerning the yellow triangle.

What does the yellow triangle mean? Why do people get it and what's the risk if you try to remove it using triangle away? I recently flashed the rocket ROM for the first time but didn't get the triangle?
Sent from my GT-N7000 using XDA

Yellow triangle appears when you flash custom kernels through PC Odin, and it usually means that your warranty is void.
Flashing stuff using Mobile Odin and/or CWMR does not produce the triangle.
Triangle Away works like a charm if you are on ICS, used it myself.

it indicates flashing of non stock rom which samsung use to see if the warrenty is still valid

*Yellow Triangle is the only thing you'll ever hate about your Galaxy Note.
Basically, it is an indicator for Samsung to see if you've ever flashed any CustomROM on your device. If you get the yellow triangle, your warranty is gone forever!
However, you NEVER get this thing if you use CWM Recovery to play around with ROMs or use Odin for PC to install STOCK ROM! If you install a Custom ROM with PC Odin, chances are that you'll end up getting the yellow triangle.
Though, it can be removed using jigs and even an app (Sorry, I don't remember the name), it has it's own risks. I am not really clear about those either but I've heard that you might end up bricking your phone!

Then why did I not get the Triangle when I flashed the AbyssKernel?

because you flashed it via CWM and those installs do not increase the binary counter show an update in firmware

[Q] Yellow triangle with exclamation mark

I just rooted my phone yesterday and after that, I got this annoying problem.
Every time I boot my phone, there's this yellow triangle with an exclamation mark under Samsung Galaxy Note GT-N7000.
I see nothing wrong with my phone except that it drains battery quickly. I just flashed Ultimate N7000 XXLSC JellyBean today and it's still there.
What do you guys think is wrong with my phone? Did I somehow rooted it differently?
Be nice, I'm kind of new with rooting and flashing roms.

Ok, this has been covered here many times. Samsung has built a binary counter on their devices to detect unofficial software flashed. That is why, you have to flash via mobile Odin and root with Philz Kernel on stock recovery to avoid that.
Now, you can use a jig to remove the yellow triangle: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1354888
If you don't have a jig, then you can use this app by chainfire: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1494114

OTA Update will not fix the problem...
That means you root your phone with a custom firmware...
You have to use Triangle Away by Chainfire.It removes Custom Binary and sets firmware to Official so you don't have the triangle sex with you every time you boot up your phone

hi, I have samsung galaxy tab GT-P7500 with a existing triangle exclamation point, I have tried the Chainfire app from google and I also reflashed with a new rom to avail. its still there any here. (I also tried to see if there was a special jig for the device I couldnt any)

[Q] How to go back to Samsung ROM without rising the flash counter?

Hi. I've got a Galaxy Note N7000, currently on SlimBean 4.2.2. I flashed this ROM in the stock Samsung recovery so the flash counter didn't rise, nor the yellow exclamation mark did appear on the boot screen and that's because because I didn't use Odin, not even once with this phone.
Now I'm selling the phone and I want to flash latest Samsung official ROM and I'm asking how to do it without raising the flash counter or making the yellow exclamation mark appear? Is it ok to flash some Samsung official ROM straight from SlimBean 4.2.2 using Odin in a way that the phone would appear like it have never been modded in the first place?

If you don't have a raised flash counter or yellow triangle (which it sounds like you don't) then I would format system/data/preload etc then boot to download mode and flash stock rom with pc odin. In fact you probably don't even need to do the formats but just an extra precaution

yellow triangle only shows when you flash a custom ROM or kernel (or root a stock rom).
for stock roms, it doesnt show.
and for reset the flash counter, use triangle away (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=eu.chainfire.triangleaway)
good luck

Thanks for the replies. So if I flash Samsung official ROM with Odin, the flashh counter will not rise and the yellow exclamation mark will not appear AND the phone will look like it has never been modified AND my warranty will still be valid, i.e. Samsung would accept my phone for repair if it ever gets broken.?

triangle shows that you have flashed other roms..the counter increases with each flash but you can remove that by using triangle away.apk and you can flash JB rom for your country.. download it from sammobile.com firmware section

The downside of the triangle is you cannot claim warranty of the triangle is there.
