Anyone tried ?

Using it. Same as updates as LA4 if nothing more. Only problem is the torch widget. It doesnt work like the one on LA4 where it has 3 different brightness of the light.... All 3 tier of the brightness is the same on mine. But that could be cause by the speedmod kernel i am using

this is caused by kernel, yes! the 3 steps only work on original samsung kernels!

Is it a wipe rom?

no it is not.

the "new text memo" and "new drawing memo" buttons of S Memo look different now. anybody knows what's changed?

On my Austrian Note (ATO), it has very old software (XXKKA from November). And both OTA and Kies updates says no updates available.
What do I do? Reset and change sales country code to German for example, which is known to be getting updates (in that case what number is best for latest updates)?
Or should I forget about official update process and download and install it manually? (in this case where is good source to download it? Also is it Odin software that I will need to update?)
Thank you.

Kies always has problem. it's like a girl on he rperiod, u never know when th eupdates gonna pop. just go to the dev section there should be a sticky on official roms and instruction to flash it. Recomend mobile odin. Never have to worry about root again and it doesnt jack up you binary counter. Do pay attention if the rom is wipe or none wipe tho, just in case u want to sav your data.

I'm unable to update to LA2 from KK1 via OTA. Tried several times with or without ext SD card, rooted/unrooted through CWM, energy saving mode on or off etc. everytime fails at 10%.
My Note is rooted using Zergrush exploit explained at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1329360
All root apps work so I got the right KK1 Kernel.
Anyone else having this issue? I understand using Kies will break my root so what other method can I use to update to HK's LA2 without loosing root?
For what it's worth... my Note being on KK1 is really fast ... if it ain't broke... what benefits would I have running at LA2?
Any ideas?

upgrade with kies, then root it again.
other method will wipe every apps and data. such ad odin.

From my experience it is just boot into recovery mode (samsung), then select root.zip from sdcard. More or less the same method. CWM kind of out dated.
I did this kind of root for Samsung ACE, galaxy tab etc, surely can do so for note. Maybe needing old keneral as intermid steps. Like S2 etc.
No worrys 無問提*^_^*

For the Hong Kong People, the only way to upgrade and keep root, is to use Mobile Odin. Explained in the sticky in the Dev Section.
If you need to download the firmware, there is a hotfile link in the sticky, or alternately google Checkfus, and download version 2.1 for PC. Run it, select android, select GT-N7000, and then Hong Kong, and download. (Or any other if you want them)
Move it to your device and flash via mobile odin.

exactly! did just that... installed / bought Odin Mobile Pro, downloaded the latest ROM and flashed. Got LA2 now and still have root

you can now use the black wallpaper as lockscreen without the banding.

I was on XXLA4, I then flash to ZSLA2 using mobile odin. While Applying multi-csc it said couldn't access /system/*/XEU/* folder.
It then went into manual mode and I chose reboot. Everything looks fine except when I check the version using *#1234#, the CSC is unknown.
Flashed back to XXLA4 and got the same error. Again everything seems fine, phone came back up but *#1234# list CSC as unknown. Anyone seen this before?
Thanks

Yes, Iv'e had this when coming from another CSC.
Usually once I flash back to stock TGY firmware, I boot into android, then set up skipping the google services, and reboot into recovery and it corrects itself. I.e. This with stock firmware / kernel.
The last time i did this, flashed an update using mobile odin, and the csc files refused to apply, so I extracted the CSC zip and flashed manually in recovery. All was well then, and I could choose TGY again.

Yep. Same issue here. Updated via mobile Odin pro and CSC is unknown.
Can you provide a link where to download /get the CSC zip for TGY?
What option or menu did you use in recovery mode?

I extracted it. Will post here, as it needed to be changed to ext4 format etc.. Blah blah blah. Give me 5 mins .
EDIT: 5 minutes up, here it is. Just flash in recovery, then your CSC should be fine. May need to change it, and remember when you do, it WILL WIPE YOUR DATA!
THIS IS THE TGY CSC FILE FROM LA2 ROM.

I just realize that we may not need to worry about the CSC not showing under *#1234# as apparently it is still there...
Have a look at this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1124900
There is a short code *#272*IMEI# to check your sales code, in our case TGY for Hong Kong.
Also when rooted you can navigate to /efs/imei/ then look for the file "mps_code.dat" and open as text with a text editor. this is where you would change the CSC code if you wish to change to other region.
That also shows the Note still has it's original CSC code.
Anyway, saves me the hassle of wiping the whole phone and restoring all apps and content all over again.
I understand that if you want to keep root in future FW updates it's better to flash them with Odin Mobile Pro rather than Kies / Odin / OTA which will remove root.
Just my 2 cents

I have better GPS connection after JPJPG(OFFICIAL through kies)
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
For Market: In phone dialer enter *#272*IMEI# . This wilk give u option to change from XSS to XSG, xsg has market enabled, by doing so you phone will reset, IMEI is number for you mobile handset, XSG is universal
OR
use attached market apk for XSS mobile, use Clockwork mode to "install from zip file" if you dont have Clock work mode, rename the zip to "update" and apply in Recovery
Battery is not draining that quickly but wifi sucks

JPJPG is available through Kies aswell, If you are on JPJPA, flash back to JPJG8 and connect your mobile to Kies, It will offer you JPG upgrade, Before flashing back you need to backup your data/ sms/call logs etc and then flash back
Quick questions guys:
Just got 2.2 through Kies. I now need to re-download my apps, over 90% of them are not showing through the market, not even through search. Im guessing I have to change again to XSG like I did when I had 2.1, then root again as well to enable Market Enabler and access paid apps like I used to (which I did with Ryanza)
1. Old XSG access code (HHMM) gets rejected, new code IMEI gets rejected,is there a way to enable this without flashing etc (i'm a very low-tech person)
2. How do I root this phone, Ryanza's, the only step by step guide I got for this was based on downloading odin with root kernel for JPH, as you know we are running on jpjpg.
3. Are you guys experiencing lags? I'm not so far.
Would really appreciate your help, with easy shortcuts. Never used odin ..etc...but was willing to give it a try until i noticed the different kernel code.
Thanks!
I Upgraded to Froyo Through Kies. The build number is JPJPG.
The App Drawer has major lag when changing pages. It was much faster with the stock Eclair rom. GPS is still the same, it was not fixed at all. I have not noticed any improvement in Battery life either.
2. How do I root this phone, Ryanza's, the only step by step guide I got for this was based on downloading odin with root kernel for JPH, as you know we are running on jpjpg.

I also got the update through Kies last friday, nov 19th. My phone had the 3 button recovery issue, I found a fix here on xda (will get the link later, its bookmarked on another pc)
I also installed voodoo lagfix PRE6, and the phone is working like a charm, highest Quadrant score 1510. After installing voodoo lagfix, rooting is so easy. Just install superuser from the market, and bingo.
So I can confirm that JPJPG works fine with:
- Voodoo lagfix project-voodoo.org
- Flashing the boot loader to fix the 3 button recovery issue
- rooting
Need to ask a question, can anyone please backup the stock ROM and upload it somewhere? in case I ever need to go back to stock, I stupidly forgot to take a backup

To backup stock rom, you need Rom manager premium, It will install clockwork mode recovery, let me know If you have issues with that. Rom manager premium is paid but crack is available at blackdroid.net
Lgfix: I am using Universal lagfix (last option**No-RFS Overkill JFS: turns on all options: everything is jfs+ext2 and /data/data is bound to /dbdata**), it gives me a quardant score of 2100+
You get ULF from clockwork mode (install Rom Manager*free version* from market and open the app and the 1st option installs CWM) for details see this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=734166&highlight=clockwork+mode

Hi,
I have used CF root using Odin, its takes 3-7 seconds
Download the this file "CF-Root-JPJPA-v1.2-Busybox-1.17.1.zip" from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=788108
and open Odin 1.3, its better to keep odin and above zip file in one folder, lets say in C:\.......
Unzip this zip in the same folder
Once Odin is open, click PDA to browse (downloaded Unzip file)(CF-Root-JPJPA-v1.2-Busybox-1.17.1) and Now shutdown you mobile (wait till its really off), press Volume down + power+Home simultaneously and bring your mobile in recovery mode, connect it to your computer, you will see 1st box on Odin will change its colour and it will comm 7 or 11
press start, it will reboot your mobile and you are rooted, let me know if you have any issues
For Market , download zip from post 6 and install via Clockwork mode

Which root you used, normally all the roots available in these forums install Su and Busybox, check in your apps if you see Busybox
if its not installed re-root the mobile using CF-root, its safe, and method is in above posts or check this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=788108

Under testing, will post tonight
is there a possibility to flash this rom on a jxjg2 baseband version? what code do i use in kies?

[i9000m][canadian] Starting Over

i want to flash my phone back to the out-of-the-box stock firmware for Virgin Mobile Canada (2.1), so i can update officially through Kies
i have flashed a few ROMs over the past year, such as JVO and JVQ,
i just want to start fresh and have looked but with limited success for the proper firmware,
can someone please give me a link where i can download the PDA/PHONE/CSC(VMC) ?
This is what I use to flash back to 2.2 factory. As for 2.1, I'm not sure
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=991792&highlight=ez-odin
i9000m virgin, should I assume the same as bell?
Bell 2.2 is i9000ugkc1 download and flash samfirmware.com has all the firmwares you just need to have a free account.. make sure after you flash you re-adjust your product code with the dialer in the *#272*"imei"# then select your product code, bell's is bmc
then click re-install this will do a factory wipe also...
if you download the latest version of kies from samsung canada you can then use that to upgrade to gingerbread ugk3
this is all under the assumption virgin is using the same firmware as bell.....
The above instructions are correct, but instead of using the BMC Sales/Product Code, select VMC.
My only issue is i have tried samfirmware before and I don't know what to do with the .rar file as opposed to the .exe files I usually use to flash, how do I deal with a .rar and I tried a protean called bitzipper before but u didn't have a password to expand the file :s, sorry in advanced for being a n00b at this,
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
.rar? download winrar and use it to extract, you should get either (depending on the download) 1 .tar file... you flash that with ODIN or 3 .tar files you flash with ODIN.
Do some research on flashing with ODIN, there is substantial information on XDA and youtube if you need a visual reference.
and if i get one .tar file then i place it in the PDA portion of odin?
Why go back to 2.1?
If your phone is hosed so bad that you need bootloaders and everything (like mine was playing with KG3/JVR combos), then flash one-file 2.2 JL2.
If the phone works OK but you just want to put a stable stock firmware on it, flash 2.2 KC1.
From either of these Kies will update to 2.3.3 KG3.
The password is on the page where the ROM is linked. It's usually "samfirmware.com".
to enter *#272*"imei"# in my dialer how do i enter letters :S
no no. where it says imei its your actual imei number
Sent from my GT-I9000M using XDA Premium App
If you dont know your IMEI, you can also pull out your battery and look at the numbers on your phone... there should be 3 sets of numbers (SN, USN, and IMEI i believe...). Write down your IMEI number and then use that code...
for example (this isnt my imei number and i apologise if it is anyone elses here )

To change the sales code (CSC) I recommend searching the Market using keyword "CSC" (without the quotes) to locate the "Samsung Galaxy S / S2 CSC" app. Just run it and select the Virgin sales code. Once of the above posts says "VMC" I think...
NOTE: Changing the sales code will clear caches; so, be sure to backup first.

What is a CSC file?
Mithent said:
CSC is the Country/Carrier Specific Code (not sure exactly which it is, both kinda make sense). It contains the files for customisation for specific networks, so will have the APN settings, maybe custom ringtones or backgrounds, and can have programs too. Some CSC files contain a lot more than others, hence the file size differences.
Mixing different PDA/PHONE/CSC files is certainly possible, although it might be best not to stray too far on the PDA and PHONE side. The CSC isn't really very important in most cases - at worst you'll probably just have to set up the APN manually.

A multi-CSC what is that?
Well most CSC's are a one CSC code that stands for one country or a bundle of CSC codes stands for a group of countries like europe.
Well I created a CSC file that support 80 countries over the whole world
How to install this?
You need odin and the CSC file below
1. Open odin
2. let the default settings the way it is don't change anything
3. Click the CSC button
4. choose "CSC_GT-S5830_SGARM1.md5" (no repartition)
5. Get your device into download mode
6. connect your phone
7. hit "start"
8. wait till it is done
How to repair CSC if it is broken?
Just flash another CSC file with odin and mine is gone

Do you have kpo?
Because it will take over the CSC version you have before
I mean when you had first LUX as CSC then RM1 see you are from LUX so it will set the CSC to LUX

Its because CWM doesn't support CSC installation with old Amend script, to fix it we need to edit updater-script in sec-csc.zip to Edify scripting, I'm sure redmaner could do that

can't boot phone

Hi, I started a thread needing help with my wifi but it has developed into not even being able to boot at all; it stops at the galaxy logo and either freezes or keeps booting. I have gone to the Odin page with all the different things to do and flashed the file to get back to the original rom but that is really where the trouble began. right now the only thing I can do with my phone is get into download mode, I can't even get into recovery. I have flashed a pit file that worked the first time but I don't know if that is part of the problem or not. Can someone please give me some directions, thanks
Also the phone won't boot at all unless hooked up to a power supply, the battery alone doesn't do anything.

The bootloader would be whatever the latest update was for this phone. I can't get into it to tell you anymore. I am using ODIN 10, the latest one. thanks
Well I finally got into recovery and did a factory reset, now it boots into the AT&T white splash screen before it just turns off. I am also wondering if my battery just died for some reason?

ODIN 10? Try using ODIN 3.09 and see if that helps. The latest update would be Android 4.4.4 NJ4 firmware. This link should help you, it will give you root with safe strap recovery though: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4-att/general/guide-odin-to-stock-updating-rooting-t2926642
I meant 3.10, I will try the older version. What file should I flash?

Check out the link I posted in my last post. It should help you get your phone fixed.
I have been there. I went to the very last option which seems to be what I need unless I am missing something.
Neither odin 3.09 or 3.10 will even flash any file now. it either says invalid md5 or fails when it attempts it.
Well, I finally got it to boot into android but it is flaky at best. It is android 4.3 instead of 4.4 where it was initially. The wifi still doesn't work and now the keyboard keeps crashing everytime I do something. The build is jss15j1337ucuemk2 which I know is older than I had before. Does this give anyone a better idea of what I need to do? If I can get a stable flash then can I flash a modem file to fix the wifi? I really need some direction, thanks
Turns out the battery was completely drained which was causing some of the boot problems, I don't now how that happened but I am charging it now.
Well after using odin 3.8* I got it to install some older firmware ending in mk2 rather than the nc1 or nf4 that I had before the trouble. After I got it to boot, I went back into download mode and flashed the modem file and now everything works execpt I had to force stop Samsung keyboard and use swype. I would like to upgrade my firmware but since for a couple of more weeks it won't have a sim card I can't upgrade OTA. For some reason Kies says that firmware upgrade and initialization isn't supported with this model which makes no sense to me. It also says my firmware is up to date
Does anyone know how to flash to the latest firmware without me going through this nightmare again? thanks

If I were in your shoes I'd flash the nb1 tar file in Odin, any vein should work. See this for the tar file http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=56453100. You can then ota to the latest firmware which is 4.4.4, nj4

Download a firmaware for your region from sammobile and flash it via odin 3.10. It will solve most of your problems

I agree. But google has basically all he needs. More so rapidgator
I haven't found anything from Samsung to download. If I flash a newer build, do I also need to flash a modem file and a bootloader or can I just flash the PDA? thanks for explaining this to me.
And can I do a dirty flash so I don't have to lose everything again?
well, now I see that there is no sound. so I guess I will have to flash again.

There's. Something I'm yet to understand. Did you finally manage to boot into recovery? If so, flash a custom recovery (I recommend philz touch recovery) then use it to make complete wipe.
Then boot into download mode and flash latest pda firmware in the compressed file you downloaded. Ps: make sure it's from your region.
May be if you provided me with your region I'd get you all the files required

I Need Help Please! PLEASE HELP!

Hello Everyone, i got a note 3 phone
SM-N9005 FCC ID: A3LSMN9005
SSN:- N9005GSMH
MADE IN VIETNAM BY SAMSUNG..
i bought this note 3 phone from UAE and it was with Kitkat 4.4.2 and when i was using it, some apps used to stop and not responding and get a pop-up message "System has stopped" or something like .com.system has stopped responding, also when i open some other apps the phone shuts down, so i turn it on, sometimes it works fine and sometimes it stops responding and shut down many times, so i had to make a full restore factory reset and still have the same problem, some guys told me you have problems with the rom, so i had to look for stock roms to it and found a lollipop rom under this name (AP_N9005XXUGBNL8_CL3643614_QB3415922_REV00_user_low_ship_MULTI_CERT.tar) and i installed samsung usb drivers just to make sure that everything is okay.
so when i started flashing it by odin it said Fail, so i tried once again but failed again, and i found my phone went to that black screen with (firmware upgrade encountered an issue, please select recovery mode in kies & try again), i couldn't get to my previous kitkat rom after that, but i'm able to go to download mode and recovery mode, so after this( brick) i had to search of how to unbrick it so after that i flashed philz as a recovery mode, and then flashed (All samsung recovery.tar) so then after flashing it, that message of (firmware upgrade encountered an issue, please select recovery mode in kies & try again) is gone, but i got another loop of restart each time i open the phone, it is not booting it is only taking me to the black start screen of android, and after a while it restarts itself.. and then when i tried to flash the same rom once again and connected my phone to my computer, drivers started configuring and so i waited to finish, but it failed it said (MTP USB Device Failed), though i still can see the phone connected over Odin in download mode.
so i had to look for another rom which is a kitkat stock version (N900TUVUCNB4_N900TTMBCNB4_N900TUVUCNB4_HOME.tar) which i found after downloading it and flashing it to my phone that it is for n900, which is normally failed flashing!.
so I don't know if i messed things up or not, and i really don't know what else or more to do ?
please give me your advice so i can restore this phone to its original stats.
Thank You!​
Are you sure the first firwmware you flashed is a full stock firmware?. What is the size?.
The second firmware you flashed isn't for n9005. Try different firmware specifially for UAE.

I see. It's a leaked lollipop firmware. Flash again with 4 files except pit. First boot will take some time.

1. Go to Download Mode.
2. Tell me if you can flash this ONE using ODIN. It's the latest for KSA (Country Saudi Arabia).

Choose corresponding file for BL, AP, CP & CSC. Do not tick repartition. You could also try with the firmware as suggested by joku

You have repartion ticked but without a pit file, so obviously it will fail.
