Having a bit of an issue with NAND HD2

Hey guys, I just tried to do the whole NAND android thing on my HD2, but I've hit a snag, I flashed the radio, installed HSPL 2.08 and that Mag thing (the thing with the 12 menu options) and Clockworkmod with 150mb partition and they work all fine, In this guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=893948&page=147
I got up to:
3. FLASHING A CWM (CLOCKWORK MOD) ROM
1. Connect your phone to your pc via the USB Cable
2. In the Clockwork Mod main menu select 'wipe data/factory reset' and then 'Yes' on the next screen
3. When the data wipe is complete, select 'install zip from sd card' in the main menu
4. Go down to 'choose zip from sdcard' and select
5. Scroll down to your CWM Rom (which you should have copied to the Root of your Storage Card) and select it
6. Select 'Yes' from the options and wait until you get a message saying 'Install from sdcard complete
Note: You can repeat steps 3-5 if you have more zips to install such as gps data or screen mods
7. Once finished press the 'Back' button to get to the previous menu screen
8. Select 'reboot system now' to restart your phone and your Android Rom should boot
9. Once Android has booted and you have gone through the setup screens, LONG PRESS the 'End' button and select reboot to reboot your phone to avoid possible FC (Force Close) problems
NOTE: The first boot of your Rom will take alot longer than subsequent boots so leave it and give it time (15 minutes max)

I did the installer through CWM, it asks me to reboot the phone, then it comes up with NAND failed or something, takes me back to the magDLR folder with the 12 selectable things (with tetris which doesnt work)?
I tried installing it a few times, same issue.
I'm trying to install this ROM:

I think its 2.14.50 or something like that, I flashed it because one of the guides suggested to.

Can I just put this on my SD card and install it through the CWM I have on my phone at the moment?
Or do I have to completely wipe my device again and start from scratch?

best would be to clear it all the way to prevent any problems

dont worry your radio looks good and the clear and restart is pretty quick

but if you really wanna save time try it through cm first maybe ill work correctly

Thanks mate that one seems to work, but now I've got this flashy X thing on my screen, is that supposed ot happen?
UPDATE:
Yay its working, awesome. I just installed it through clockwork mod, had no issues.
Is there some sort of task manager I can see to terminate programs in this version of Android?

I've got PSX4Droid on it now, I'm trying to play Metal Gear Solid but she's a bit laggy, stuttering sound and slow frame rate.
Anyone else had this issue?

there is task killer on the market

try chainfire might help

MIui Question

I cant post in the thread because I am "new" so I am asking here.

Post 1 says:
NOTES:
You MUST be on CyanogenMod 7 or .340 Froyo to flash this rom!
Remember to wipe before flash!
On 1.7.22.1: It is on Rom Manager, Click Check for Updates!
You must go into settings and change resolution of MIUI Camera to get it to work.
Do not wipe to install it.
Market apps are fixed!
Post 2 says:
If you haven't heard about this ROM yet then check out the videos in the 2nd post to see it in action!
This is an excellent ROM if for no other reason than it introduces the first non-CyanogenMod/carrier/manufacturer framework overhaul of Android 2.3.4 and boy what an overhaul.
So what version should I have to install it?
I don't want to install and end up in a boot loop because we all know how hard it is to fix a Droid X when that happens

You must be on either CyanogenMod 7 or 340 Froyo. You must flash 1.7.22, not 1.7.22.1, it can be flashed later.
Also, it's not that difficult to fix a bootloop lol.

Thanks
How do you get out of a boot loop with the Droid X?
I can't get into recovery unless I am in a Rom and run Droid 2 Bootstrapper

Well since I can't post in the real thread I will post here all the bugs I find.
1. Lot's off apps in the market don't work. I am talking a good 40-60 at least. There are a few important ones I use like Noom and Cardio Trainer.
Market shows that the app is incompatible with my device. Ti Backup tries to restore but either says it is successful or fails, it works neither time.
2. When I check Settings>System>About Phone and then click Systems Updates it force closes settings.
Reason I was checking this was because I tried to update using ROM manager but that didnt work.
3. ROM manager works, however it does nothing when I click "Check for ROM Updates"
4. Google Maps was said to be installed, maybe on the next version but since I cant install that I had to install it myself
5. Tethering and hotspots. No hotspot option shown. Also USB tethering did not seem to work. I tried the 4 different settings you can have the phone in when connected to USB but the status says USB not connected (obviously not true since I am able to connect and view my SD card through my computer)
6. ROM fails to load after a reboot. Happened to me twice and I had to SBF it back to stock for it to boot up. This happened when I just did a normal reboot
So for now I am done as I am looking at the Motorola logo even after a wipe of data and cache

I experienced a bootloop when I was flashing back to froyo 340 (droid logo, droid eye, droid logo, droid eye, and so on).
Here's what worked for me:
1. Power down the phone (battery pull)
2. Put battery back in
3. Hold home key, then hold the power key until the phone turns back on (you should see the M logo)
4. Press the search key when you see the Android next to the triangle
5. Using the volume up/down keys on the side of your phone and the camera button to select, wipe the data and cache (please note: you only need to push the camera button half way to select)
6. Reboot the phone and it should work, at least it did for me.

Yeah I tried that and it works sometimes but not usually.

How did you flash miui? Did you flash it over CM7 or froyo 340?

SBF to stock 2.3.34
Wipe data and cache
Reboot
Install Z4Root and run (reboots on its own)
Install Droid 2 Bootstrapper (Flash recovery/Reboot recovery)
Install MIUI from zip
Reboot
It works fine for a while but after install some apps and fixing settings it wont get passed the Motorola screen.
This happened twice. I miss the OG Droid because if that happened you could just boot into recovery and load your last save and you are good to go

how are you installing the apps? manually from the market? or titanium backup?

Are you referring to post 4? If so I tried both ways. Market won't let me install the ones that I cant get installed. They just don't show up in the search. If I go onto the market website they are there but once I choose my phone it disappears.
Titanium fails when i try to install the apps
It's as if the phone is not broadcasting what model it actually is. So the apps that do work are just "works on any old Android" while the others ones say these devices only

[Q] Possible destroyed my Note.

Hi guys,
Pretty new to the android scene (came from iOS). After using my Note at stock rom for about 2 months I decided to go ICS. Well.. here is where the pain started. It seems I have really ruined my phone, however I do not understand why.
What did I do?
I rooted my phone with CWM and used ODIN 1.8 to flash a default rom (as the guide told me to) so I could flash ICS afterwards. At the moment I flashed the first rom something strange happend. The phone was clicking itself (I will add youtube links as soon as I can) just at the middle of the screen. For example, if I were to send an SMS (vertically placed) it will press T or G constantly, depending on the rom. <-- Weird right? It actually switches to G or T depending on the rom, which should indicate software problems and not hardware.
As far as I know it has something to do with the way android mounts the SD card. Because as soon as I plug in the USB, the problem is gone. As soon as I unplug its back again. The ''clicking'' seems to be localized on the same place no matter if I go portrait or landscape, must be hardware right?
I've flashed over 50 times. Using different kernals, rockroms, ICS etc. etc. They all show the same problem. Even after ''factory resets'' in CWM, reinstall stock rom etc. I've even deleted everything on the internal SD card (as far as I could see files, not sure about hidden files) but that didn't help either.
Didn't make a backup either (dumb ****ing me) but I figured it wouldn't matter because I had a stock rom from my country zipped anyway.
The fact that it only shows up unplugged, must be an indication it has something to do with the fact that it only occurs during the mount of android to the phone.. but I can't figure out how to solve it.
HELP

Clicking itself? As in, it was registering touches at the center of the screen, without you actually touching it?

Yes, exactly that. It simply registers touches without me touching it.
There is no damage either, screen is clean as can be.

I've seen a few users here on the forum having issues with their touchscreen, and almost all the time the charger/cable is identified as the culprit. Search the general and Q&A forums with "touchscreen", you'll find a few of these posts.
It seems the screen is affected by voltage fluctuations, or incorrect voltages due to use of third-party cables/ chargers. If your Note is connected to the computer and the earthing for your machine is not proper, it can cause issues too. Some people suggest using a different power outlet, or at a friend's place, just to be sure. Also, the screen seems to get damaged that way very quickly, and no software changes seem to solve anything.
I personally haven't experienced a problem like that, but I'd recommend that you flash a stock rom for your country using Odin on the PC, and get the phone replaced.

This may sound dumb... but try taking your s-pen out of the back.
Some users report over sensitive screens, and it wouldn't surprise me if it would go THROUGH the back of the phone.
Give it a shot, let us know.

Just try full flash via odin with .pit file and repartition checked. Maybe it will help you.

Hi Guys,
Thanks for your input!
After the suggestion about voltage it got me thinking. So I charged the battery to 100% using a different power outlet. Problem seemed to be gone for a while, but as soon as the battery hit 80% or so it started again. Seems the voltage regulation is off scale or something like that. Either way, the damage seems to be permanent.
I flashed back to stock rom, gonna mail it to the samsung repair center tomorrow.

Any idea where I can find this PIT file? Alot of people are talking about it but I am not able to find it.
EDIT: nvm found it

Its not only the .pit file, you need complete full flash (3 files - code, modem and csc).
For me, when i mess up my gnote trying a lot of different roms/kernels/ics stuff, helped this pack (open eu):
link in attached file (cant post links)
it includes odin and some other unimportant stuff. You need only odin, .pit file, modem file, code file and csc file.
In odin tick re-partition, auto reboot, f.reset time and phone bootloader update.
Put pda, modem, csc and pit files, than start and good luck!

Just chill
Hey there,
First things first, it is very hard to get your android messed up so, just and follow the below steps one-by-one and let me know. Please understand by following this process all your data, apps and settings will be reset.
1. Take a back up of all your data using Titanium or MyBackup.
2. Move the back up file to a location on your PC.
3. Flash a ROM that you can root and get CWM to work.
4. Once flashed and rooted, unplug the device and boot in recovery mode.
5. Once in recovery mode
a. Format Data/Factory Reset
b. Format cache
Under the advanced option in recovery mode select
a. Wipe Dalvik Cache
b. Wipe Battery Stats
Under the mounts option in recovery mode select
a. Format SD/MMC
b. Format System
c. Format Ext SD
Once done, select reboot. Now, the phone will be stuck on the flash screen, hold the power button down for as long as the phone does not turn off.
Now launch Odin, select the ROM of your choice.
Press the Power + Middle (Menu) + Volume down button until you get a warning on updating a new firmware, press the volume up button.
Plug the device and update.
Do check and let me know if this helped. The problem here is of the Battery Stats being clogged by moving from Gingerbread to ICS especially LP1 leak is disastrous and cannot be used as a daily ROM.
Please keep in mind the above steps and follow accordingly whenever you are ready to move a much advanced version of the firmware such as ICS and you will never face a problem.

Argh, thanks alot for your information.
Unfortunatly I already sent the phone to Samsung for repairs. But your story sounds logical, as well as others did. However I cannot test it at the moment. If Samsung wont fix the problem i'll try your method and get back to this topic.
For those who're insterested, here's a short video of the problem ->

Well bloodyhippo,
It turns out you were right. According to Samsung my Note's screen was defective, most likely due to to a lousy/non-grounded power connector.
Which is pretty upsetting as this basicly means I can't charge or flash my phone at 90% of all places im at.
They've replaced the screen, phone works like a charm.
Let this be a warning to all.. The G Note has a REAL sensative screen..!

I am new to posting in the forum but have recently forged ahead into custom ROMs. I went from stock ICS to Pershoot's CM10 10/30 build and now on the latest 11/9 ROM. So far it works pretty good. I documented the process if anyone is interested.
It looks like there are two active JB ROMs (Pershoot's & AOKP) on the Dev thread. Just wanting to get some interaction around this SGT10.1 model.
Thanks to Pershoot. Sorry, can't post in the dev thread yet.

The only thing about Cm10 builds across the board is battery life due to the way wakelocks seem to be handled. I'm sure that eventually things will work out. For now the degree of battery drain sometimes gets exasperated on our device because of the LTE modem so I have found it best to keep certain things frozen when the tablet is not in use like logging out of Talk, freezing Maps and turning off location services along with enabling airplane mode. I am not a user of other things that require a lot of data during sleep like Facebook, twitter or other instant messaging services so generally I get adequate battery life doing these things though not as good as with HC.
One thing is certain, I have never enjoyed using the tablet as much as I do now with Pershoot's build. The responsiveness and stability is fantastic. This is the way the tablet should have shipped from the start.
Sent from my SCH-I905 using Tapatalk 2

Agreed. Battery depletion seems to be greater on the custom ROMs vs. stock. Turning off location services shuts down the constant Wi-fi activity when the screen is off and tablet idle for a long time. I purchased Better Battery Stats to help figure out where I can conserve battery.

Observations:
I did have a situation where the tablet would always go into stock recovery instead of CWM after installing CWM. If you run into that same situation let me know and I can provide some direction.
CM10 nightlies can then be installed in the Android System settings "About Tablet" -> "CyanogenMod Updates" section

• Must be on stock ICS (v4.0.4) before initial flash to CM10 ROM because of the LTE modem
Might be a stupid question but, I am already running [ROM] [JB] [P4--P4WIFI--P4VZW] 4.1.2 AOKP for the Galaxy Tab 10.1 Do I still need to be on stock ICS before I flash this? I understand that I do need to update CWM via odin. Thanks!

I wouldn't think so. You probably flashed from ICS when you went to AOKP. After updating CWM I suggest factory wiping and clearing both caches before installing CM10. CM10.1 for the p4vzw is out but I would stay with CM10 for this transition.

That's what I thought. Yep I was on stock ICS before flahing AOKP. On AOKP my tablet will not deep sleep. Looks to be a modem lock. I hope CM 10 has better battery life Thanks for the reply!

Observations:
I did have a situation where the tablet would always go into stock recovery instead of CWM after installing CWM. If you run into that same situation let me know and I can provide some direction.
I have run into this and have not figured it out? What did you do?
I'm also looking for the official ICS OTA that I can flash.
Thanks

To fix the CWM boot issue. I did have to install root first by downloading and flashing su from here. http://downloads.androidsu.com/superuser/Superuser-3.1.3-arm-signed.zip
Install "Root Browser Lite" from Google Play
Run "Root Browser Lite" and navigate to the "system/etc" folder
Select the file "install-recovery.sh" and view it. Select "RB Text Editor" to open it..
After the line "#!/system/bin/sh" add a new line and enter "exit 0". Save the file and exit.
Power off tablet, power up into recovery/download mode.
After doing these steps I noticed it still booted into stock recovery. I ODIN'd CWM once more and then it worked fine after that.
Your should have received a firmware upgrade notice when you search for updates.

I'll give it a try, thanks.
That did the trick. I was able to root ICS without error for the first time. Before I always had to install HC then root it and then update to ICS via OTA which took days before the ICS OTA would pop up sometimes. Backed up a clean copy of ICS now so I'll not deal with that again.
Thanks.

[Guide] A guide to KitKat

Hello, recently there have been a lot of posts requesting help with KitKat on our device. This is why I have created a guide going through the installation, setup, issues and many other aspects of KitKat on our phone.
1. List of KitKat ROMs:
OmniROM
CyanogenMod
ParanoidAndroid
SlimKat
Illusion Roms
C-RoM
SlimSaber
CarbonRom
Dirty Unicorns
MoKee OpenSource
Resurrection Remix
Asylum Omni
2. Installation
If you are on the stock Jelly Bean/ICS Samsung firmware:
-Download Philz kernel and copy it to your SD card
-Download a KitKat ROM and copy it to either your internal or external memory
-Download PA-Google Apps and copy it to either your internal or external memory
-Download Raw Kernel r5 and copy it to either your internal or external memory
-Reboot to recovery by holding down volume up, power and home button at once until you are in recovery mode
-Flash Philz kernel
-Go to "Mounts and Storage" and format /system, /data, /preload
-Reboot to recovery again by going to "advanced", "reboot to recovery" or by holding down volume up, power and home button at once until you are back in recovery mode
-Flash Raw Kernel
-Reboot to recovery again
-Flash your ROM
-Flash PA-Google Apps
-Reboot
If you are on any AOSP based firmware or on any custom TouchWiz ROM:
-Download a KitKat ROM and copy it to either your internal or external memory
-Download PA-Google Apps and copy it to either your internal or external memory
-Download Raw Kernel r5 and copy it to either your internal or external memory
-Reboot to recovery by holding down volume up, power and home button at once until you are in recovery mode
-Flash Raw Kernel
-Go to "Mounts and Storage" and format /system, /data, /preload (formatting /preload may fail, skip if it does)
-Reboot to recovery again by going to "advanced", "reboot to recovery" or by holding down volume up, power and home button at once until you are back in recovery mode
-Flash your ROM
-Flash PA-Google Apps
-Reboot
3. Updating your firmware
Updating your system is very easy, some ROMs (ex. OmniROM) have a built-in updater. Simply go to Settings, About phone and "Update". After that just follow the instructions on screen.
If your ROM doesn't support that option or you want to go old-school:
-Download the updated ROM to your internal/external memory
-Reboot to recovery
-Flash the ROM
-Reboot
4. Bugs, issues
When flashing any KitKat ROM I get a "Status 7 error".
You didn't follow the installation procedure carefully enough. You most probably forgot to flash Raw Kernel or you forgot to reboot to recovery after flashing Philz or Raw Kernel.
Sometimes whilst listening to music, the track freezes and I can no longer access it.
KitKat for our device has a bug in it where this happens. There is NO fix for this. Only a reboot will allow you to access the file again.
Refer to this thread for more information.
UPDATE:
The bug has been fixed however not all ROMs have merged the fix yet. If you are still having this issue then try flashing a kernel with the fixes merged (for example Forest Kernel or Raw Kernel).
Sometimes whilst copying files from my computer, the copying process stops.
This is the same issue as the above one with the music bug. One way to copy files without a problem is to reboot to recovery, go to mounts and storage and go for "mount USB storage". Copying through recovery is stable.
UPDATE:
The bug has been fixed however not all ROMs have merged the fix yet. If you are still having this issue then try flashing a kernel with the fixes merged (for example Forest Kernel or Raw Kernel).
I have battery issues.
This can be caused by many reasons, mainly your apps. Here are a few quick fixes though:
1. If your battery is at least a year old then it may be time to replace it with a new original one
2. Go to Settings, Wi-Fi, menu button, advanced and unmark "Scanning always available"
3. Install Greenify
4. If your ROM supports it, go to App Ops (On CarbonROM: Settings, Privacy, Privacy Guard, menu button, advanced) and disable the permission "keep awake" from as many apps as possible. Do not disable this permission from alarm clocks, email clients etc.
You can also disable other permissions, such as location which will also save your battery life
5. Install Titanium Backup and freeze/uninstall as many un-used apps as possible
6. Install Wakelock Detector to find out what is keeping your device awake
7. If you still have problems, refer to this thread
I haven't got ROOT access.
This usually affects OmniROM users. Download SuperSU zip and flash through recovery mode
I want access to Developer options.
Go to Settings, About phone and tap 7 times "Build number"
I want to change the runtime to ART.
Go To Settings, Developer options and find "Select runtime". Don't forget that the ART runtime is still in development by Google and bug reports shouldn't be filed against ROMs if you experience problems on ART
Every single time I change to the ART runtime, it doesn't change and stays on the current Dalvik runtime.
You have Xposed installed which is stopping you from changing it as Xposed is incompatible with ART. Uninstall Xposed to fix this.
I hope you have found this mini guide useful. If you still have any doubts, please don't hesitate to request more help in this thread.
If you have any suggestions as to what else should be included in this guide, don't forget to drop a line or two.

Nicely done.

Wow u really did a great one there. Hopefully this will be a great help to all "lost sheeps" out there. Well done!

There's no need to wipe anything when dirty flashing updates.

Very nice, but I'm sticking with 4.1.2 for several reasons.
One, Samsung hasn't officially (and seriously doubt they will, device is almost 3 years old) released
4.4 to the Note N7000. I usually stick with stock roms (different kernel obviously).
Two, to get kk, you have to jump through some hoops to get it on your device. I'm not above doing it,
it's just too much of a pain, to have to load all the apps, settings etc. Should be a "drag & drop" or
just click, to install.
Three, pretty much every KK rom I've seen, for the N7000, has a glitch here, bug there, battery problem,
BT problem etc. I've heard people flash the same rom to two different N7000's and one works perfect, the
other doesn't.
Four, I've had 4.1.2 on mine, since the day it came out, and, without a doubt, it's been for my usage, pretty
much the most stable rom I've used. When I was younger, back in the 386/486 computer days, it was nothing
for me to spend an evening, tweaking front side buss settings, memory timings, config.sys & autoexec.bat files
to tweak 1-2 seconds of performance from a PC. Today, I'm just after decent performance, and STABILITY.
This device, sadly IS my lifeblood for work. I don't have time for rebooting, lock ups, glitches etc.
I'm shopping around for device...the Note3 was on the list, but the price (I don't do contracts anymore) is a bit
steep, along with getting one to work properly in the USA, means you almost always have to get a LOCKED
down at&t device, with features removed, bloat etc. Got a few on the radar, but I'll just keep going with the N7000.
I'll hate to put her out to pasture, she's been a good ride.

Even though it's really off topic, but I will say I do share your sentiments.

This is the wrong place to ask your question. Should've gone to troubleshooting section. Your situation might have been caused by ICS kernel. You should've flashed compatible CWM + franco's safe kernel or philz safe kernel n recovery first before flashing anything else in ICS 4.0.4

After flashing Raw Kernel r5 then you won't be able to boot into your old ROM, only recovery mode and download mode. I'm guessing you chose the wrong reboot option or you didn't follow the instructions properly (rebooting at the proper times for example).

Nice guide mate. Many thanks for your time giving.
Great

Excellent guide, many thanks for taking time to compile this to help others.
Shalom and best wishes, john

Thanks for your guide..!

In the Omni wiki I read.
TWRP is the only recovery officially supported by Omni.
Is this included in the step by step manual?
Thank you

Now with Dirty Unicorns v7.5 !

Nice guide thanks.
Is it possible to flash after cm11, cm10.2 ? Or I have to change kernel or recovery things ?
Thanks

You already will have a superior recovery. So no need.
