This has already been stated over 100 times in the cm10 dev thread. you should probably go look over there dude.

Seriously? I couldn't find it -_- well that's great this is my dads phone too, so now I gotta go back down to cm10 -_-

Heads up going back to cm10.... Restore from a backup if possible. If you just flash using a cm10 zip and 4.1 gapps you may get an AOSP keyboard FC loop. Only way around that, if it happens, is to reflash stock with ODIN, do a factory reset and then flash cm10.
This has happened to several people, myself included, I just used my TWRP backups and it worked perfectly.
Side Note: If using TWRP restore, you will need to use the built in file manager and copy your /sdcard/0/TWRP folder back to /sdcard/TWRP. 4.2.1 modified the directory structure to make way for multi user support.

I actually did that but I was able to adb push the new gapps to my sd card and install them. Oh wait read that wrong nevermind thanks

[Solved] Flashed cyanogenmod, stuck on boot screen

Hey guys, I'm really new to rooting, flashing roms, and Android in general (I've used iOS since 2007 until a month ago... please have mercy on my soul). I have an AT&T GN2 that I would like to remove the bloatware from, hence why I began investigating rooting, but it's snowballed into my desire to try out some of the amazing ROMs that the developers here have produced. Since the Note 2 uses the Exynos 4, I rooted using the ExynosAbuse exploit and downloaded Titanium Backup to freeze the AT&T apps. So far, so good.
However, I am wanting to get into how to flash custom ROMs, like CyanogenMod, so I downloaded the CWM RomManager and flashed the CWM Recovery. I downloaded the CyanogenMod 10.1 release for the i317 model (here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2024495) and the latest gApps package (for 4.2.1), and flashed both from CWM RomManager. When it rebooted, it showed the CyanogenMod boot screen, but it appears to be stuck there. I'm not sure what to do at this point, and am hoping I didn't brick my phone. Is there anything I can do at this point?

Use the three button combo to get into recovery, should be volume up, home, and power, and then wipe data or install a stock rooted ROM. That should help get you to a bootable stage.

When I booted into recovery, I got the CWM recovery (which is a good thing, I suppose). I wiped the cache, and then installed the CM 10.1 zip and gApps zip. However, I think I still need to wipe data/factory reset, right?
So, at this point, I've:
1. Rooted the device using Chainfire's ExynosAbuse apk (super easy).
2. Installed RootChecker (success) and TI backup (froze bloatware apps).
3. Downloaded CWM RomManager.
4. Flashed CWM Recovery.
5. Downloaded CM 10.1 port for i317 (the AT&T GN2 model) and the 4.2.1 gApps zips.
6. Chose to install ROM from SD card in RomManager, added both CM 10.1 and gApps, and only selected install (did not wipe cache or user data at this point).
7. Received blue CyanogenMod boot screen... excited... but it remains on the boot screen. Sad face.
8. Removed battery to power the device off, placed battery back in, and then booted into recovery mode (CWM recovery).
9. Installed the CM 10.1 zip and gApps zip from SD, then wiped cache.
10. ???

Wipe data factory reset. Wipe cache/dalvik. Flash cm, flash gapps. Reboot
And dont use rom manager. Do it in recovery

Okay, booted into CMW recovery and performed all in that order. It booted! Hurrah. Only problem: the AOSP keyboard crashes constantly, making text input not possible. Sigh...

Okay, I booted into recovery mode and fixed permissions... the keyboard still crashes, which means I can't type anything. Do I have to do anything with the kernel? I didn't wipe the dalvik cache, should I have done that?
EDIT: wiped dalvik cache, didn't do anything... apparently, this was a fine release so I'm not sure what could be causing the keyboard issues.

So what ROM are you using? I just picked cyanogenmod because I've heard of it before, but I would like something that works. Is there a way to add another ROM onto the phone's storage, as I don't have an SD card... And since I can't type anything, it's not like I can download it from the phone's browser?

Plug it into your computer and see if you can mount your internal sd. If you can download a new rom to your computer and transfer it to sd. Did you make a backup before flashing?
Im just running stock rooted for now.

Well, I'm downloading CleanROM right now. I also downloaded another cm 10.1 file just in case, perhaps it's because I downloaded it on the mobile Chrome browser that I'm having problems? I also downloaded a kernel from the thread to help with performance. However, if I can't get these on the phone, it doesn't matter. Since I'm on a Mac, I have to use Android File Transfer, and it isn't registering my phone, unfortunately. I may have to go out and buy a cheap SD card and throw the files on there. It may not hurt to have one around, anyways.

Text yourself the download link to CleanRom. :thumbup:
And chrome shouldnt have made a difference. I take it you didnt make a nandroid backup before you flashed cm?

No... I thought that a backup of the original ROM was made when flashing CWM recovery, but I am a noob and that did not happen. Unfortunately, the browser doesn't even work! So I cannot text myself the link for the download. I should be able to flash a zip file from a micro sdhc, right?

Flash the right GAPPS, the crashing keyboard is a symptom of incorrect GAPPS. The December one is for 4.2.1 only, which is what CM10.1 is based on. Make sure you flash the right GAPPS with the right CM version.

The CM you linked in the OP is CM10 not 10.1, so you flashed the wrong GAPPs

Oh... crap. Is there any way I can get the correct gApps on my phone? Ugh... I'm going to have access to a Windows machine today, so I can download the correct GAPPS and put them on my flash drive. I can still put it in USB debugging mode, but will the PC recognize it? Android File Transfer software for Mac does not recognize the phone any more, so I'm a bit limited in what I can do. Unless, like I said before, I can just pop in an SD card with the correct file.

Just grab goo manager from the market and dl the correct gapps to your phone. Either that or use your phones browser. No need for a pc. Boot in recovery, wipe cache and dalvik and flash correct gapps. Should be gtg.
Edit: just saw your browser isn't working. Goo manager's your best bet. Could always try another browser from the market as well. Good luck.

Running ASOP ROMS on N7105 Intl but lost camera functions

[AOSP - damn typo!] Hi, hoping someone has already experienced this or can point me to the right thread
I've flashed, reflashed, redownloaded, flashed again (full wipe via twrp, daverik/cache cleared each time) with
rombox, carbon ROM, pa3 and liquid smooth - all of which are great ROMs, but my camera won't work on any of them.
Restored original backup and camera then worked - reset/wiped and reflashed and camera gone again
Tried camera MX app, getting a camera error with 'restart might fix...' but it doesn't
I'm using the t0lte versions, as available in goo.im
Any ideas?
Sent from my GT-N7105 using xda premium

Further - I download end several different gapps packages to test if that was the issue, with no luck.
Also tried flashing the android 4.2 camera .zip that I found here in the forums - about to try manually installing that instead of flashing.
Weird that no one's come across this issue? I watched the n00b video when I signed up he he, can't be the first to have the camera bomb out

Does anyone know which .apk files relate to the camera?
Sent from my GT-N7105 using xda app-developers app

I would bet it's a driver problem, so what I would do is this...
* install a stock ROM
* root it
* use titanium backup and backup everything including system apps
* back up the kernel - or download a stock samsung one
* install the new ROM of your choice
* install Ti backup
* restore the camera app from Samsung and any likely system components
then try the camera
if it doesn't work, try installing the stock samsung kernel

[Rom] [4.2.2] Xylon 05.22.13

Second time compiling for this device, I am sure there will be errors/issues...
Xylon AOSP
Download : Xylon(k) 2.7.7 - 05.22.13
Standard gapps package is recommended. BaNkS gapps package is also a good choice.
I do -not- own this device so please be patient. This was not pretested in any way this time, so please report back promptly about any serious issues so I can try to get them resolved and so other users don't have to suffer the same fate.
for more information on the rom, please visit http://xylon.androidvenue.com or look at other xda xylon threads for pretty pictures and such.
This is -not- straight from source, there are many manual edits(additions, changes, removals) done after the rom is finished building before I upload it.
Thanks to the Xylon team for the sources.
Thanks to Chainfire for SuperSU

I wasnt able to download anything from the market, i guess you arent having this issue? I tried standard and Banks gapps? I also tried restoring the play store from a backup. This was all without restoring any other apps or data, just full wipe and flash the rom and gapps and reboot.

I wasn't able to download anything from the market either. I used latest Gapps for JB and also tried BaNks. It recognized that I had 20 apps to restore and even showed progress bars for downloading, it just never did. I did full wipe both times I tried different Gapps pkg. If I could download anything at all, this would be my daily. Blazing fast. The smoothest rom I've seen on my ns4g.

let me guess. were you on wifi? because i just tried again on regular 3g-4g and they all started downloading.....s-l-o-w-l-y... And then when i turned wifi back on they all stopped again. Turned wifi it back off and sure enough the progress bar started moving. I can download other things via wifi dropbox links etc, so im pretty sure its not the wifi here at home. Plus my laptop is on wireless and can dl stuff, but for some reason the market on the phone wont let me dl anything over wifi. very weird.

Couldn't hurt. And I'm open to suggestions on how to fix things and potential improvements. I am by no means an expert or real dev and as said before not owning the device makes it even harder to test out potential fixes. You can either pm it to me, or post it in this thread. Probably the thread way would be better so other users could potentially help out.
When reporting issues, please only do so from a clean install and not after restoring data. Also mention the gapps used.

could also try changing your build.prop, change the dalvik.vm.dexopt-flags to

I don't think it should do it but a buddy of mine mentioned it causing issues for him in the past

If it's a ROM-based app (e.g., text messaging app) or a Google-based app, I left them as is. But my Dolphin browser, for example, was restored with data...

Regular apps are installed apps from Google play or a 3rd party app store. System apps are apps that are installed in the system partition (come with the phone.) Restoring data from most system apps can cause problems (I have yet to find an answer is to why.) From installed apps, not so much.

Great ROM, I loaded this weekend and love it. Everything working great so far! Thanks!!!

I have to say thanks for this rom. I just loaded it this morning (along with the blasphemy kernel). So far it's running great. No reboots, lockups or any other issues. As a side note, I have been having trouble with the phantom menu and search presses on other roms including stock, all stock based roms, and every other AOSP based rom I've flashed. I've had to disable the soft keys and enable the navbar on all of them to fix this issue. I don't know what the difference is but this is the first rom I've flashed that actually worked without the phantom key presses. Thanks again. Looks like I've finally found a new daily driver.

Does anyone know if dock audio or speakerphone work with these builds? Prior jelly bean builds lacked functioning dock audio and the mics didn't pick up audio correctly in speakerphone mode such that callers report not being able to hear you loudly enough.

how do i find out if i have the kernel with the MMC-SUPERBRICK-BUG?
i am on stock 4.0.4
Thanks.

4.0.4 has the brick bug, to flash this you need to use a safe kernel

Does this just replace the kernel? All my apps and data should still be there?

Yes it replaces your current kernel, but you won't be able to boot back into the ROM once you flash this so make sure you have the files ready, another thing is that you need to back up your apps and data because you need to erase your data to flash the ROM, I would invest in titanium backup, if you can't afford it use helium.

i am confused. I will be in the current rom to flash the kernel using mobile odin. How is it that I wont be able to boot back into the ROM? Do i need to flash another ROM after flashing the kernel? what ROM did you flash after the kernel?

El29 direct boot kernel is a kernel for just flashing Roms.once you boot into it you have to flash a ROM.if you don't and choose to reboot system it will just reboot back into the el29 kernel.so you have to download the ROM you want and gapps if using a aosp ROM.now using an aosp ROM you need an ICS modem.

Dont take this the wrong way, but you are not ready to be flashing this rom. You really need to check out the other forums on how to correctly flash for this phone. Especially since you are on 4.0.4. One wrong move and you will have an expensive paperweight on your hands.
Go do your homework and ask these questions in Q&A thread. You will get lots of help there.
