Nandroid back up question & more - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi Everyone
I'm hoping to get some answers here before i proceed any further....
i have just got my phone back from being repaired, after months setting it up just how i like it i now have to start over again as its been wiped clean,
Question 1. i plan on using the TOOLKIT v3 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1923956 to root my phone, i also see that the tool kit enables me to perform a Nandroid back up, would i be right in thinking this takes a whole copy of my phone so that if this happens again i can just recover the file and my phone will be back to how it was, including things like settings within apps, not just phone settings?
Question 2.Does rooting the phone mean my counter will rise or is that only when you flash a new rom?
Question 3. Regarding the Nandroid back up, does anyone know where this is stored, phone, external sd card or pc?
Im sure there will be more questions as i go along but these are the main ones for now.
Thanks Pete :fingers-crossed:

Can anyone help me with this? , please

Hi if your phone is not root use TOOLKIT v3 then after you have root your phone enter recovery and make a backup on internal sd card or external sd card,then install a costum rom if you want.
I hope i help you.

Correct me if i said something bad.

Rooting won't raise counter.
Flashing custom recovery or kernel would.
Nandroid is like norton ghost if you have used it.
It will backup every byte written on your phone.

ok so looking at the tool kit in my post when it talks about rooting it gives me a few options.
i take it option 1 & 2 wont raise my counter but options 3,4 & 5 will raise the counter?
also if i go for option 1 will i still be able to carry out a nandroid backup, im just worried in case i have to send the phone back again and they see that ive rooted and say the warranty is void!
Thanks Pete

Hi could you answer my questions from post 5 please

You can do nandroid back up irrespective of anything from toolkit. I do think root is needed though.
But to do it from phone itself you need recovery. But since you are extreme counter conscious and you should be then don't give a damn option 2 is best as some apps still require busy box. You can say it's a kind of .net for some root operations.

How it was hijacked?
Read your post( #5), yourself only mentioned that option 1 and 2 won't raise counter, and my answer was regarding that only, UtkarshGupta said it won't raise counter,i am not agree with that, according me it was possible if toolkit using Exynose abuse, my question was not out of subject but was just only to provide best answer to you, so i have head up , if you feel discussion was not necessary, you can carry on. If you don't understand why I have questioned then it's your misunderstanding, i don't need to ask questions for me.

Why dont you tell me? Its obviously not the rom, a rom definitely wouldnt break your phone, or everyone who flashed it would be bricked like you are. So that only leaves one other thing that it could be and thats that you messed it up somehow

I'll clue you in on the problem....xlite is a rom for the international galaxy siii and you are in a forum dedicated to the AT&T version. One would deduce that you flashed the wrong rom on your phone. My suggestion is to read, read, read before you flash anything else if you are able to unbrick your phone.

Dude, everyone else flashed it with no problem at all. If you had a problem, its YOUR fault. This is why devs have to put a disclaimer with there roms, cuz stupid people mess up there phones and blame it on the devs work. They arent the ones who did something wrong to your phone. They provide the ROM, they cant help it if you dont know how to use it

Keep it civil, name calling is inappropriate. You made mistake, it happens. Just pm a mod and have them move this thread to q&a, hopefully you can get your answer from more civil people...good luck.

I'm not sure how you installed it, but i don't think i've ever installed a custom ROM and it automatically rebooted...

Hows the battery life ?
Haven't had to charge the phone since I performed the mod. I think this mod writes to /mnt/sdcard/new folder...which in turn does absolutely nothing besides enable immortal battery tweak.
Will this trip my flash counter?
I hadn't thought of that until you mentioned it. I just checked and unfortunately it does trip the counter. Before the mod I was at 0, and now it reads over 9000, and no longer samsung official... If attempted make sure you grab a copy of Triangle Away.
This bricked my phone :silly:

Nexus or non-nexus both run on android and he is talking about ios.Even there are persons who install iphone launcher/iphone locker/iphone unlocker etc. etc. to make their phones look like iphoneBut I wanna advise them that if they can afford devices like HOX then they can also buy an iPhone.That would be a better decision than to flash ios on an android device.But if u are so desperate to have ios on ur device then ignore my comment.

Stock T999_UVDMD5 Kernel

Where might I get the T999_UVDMD5 (4.1.2) Stock Kernel? I just want it as a recovery option in case I dont want to flash an entire rom, and want to try out other Kernels.
I am running Root66 if this helps. I've checked several threads but I cant find anything on it. I was hoping someone here had it.
I thought there was a thread, ill try to find it.

Man I feel stupid now. We'll just do it that way, or alternatively I'll do a complete backup in TB and CWM and then if **** breaks, I'll just restore it and my phone will be none the worse.
Ktoons kernel is just too tempting not to use. Planning on testing it with Hyperdrive once our Utopia Fiber Optic internet is hooked up into our apt.

what better modem with TIM Italy

Hi guys, I wanted some advice. My Notes 2 LTE has little reception and sometimes goes away even the signal where it should be .. I want to know which modem / baseband install to have better reception. At the moment I have the Cyanogen with 10.1 on the DLL5, thank you.

questions related modems are hard to answer as they work differently with everyone's phone... normally you have to test the various modems for yourself and see for yourself or ask/find maybe somebody who lives in your area see what they use and give it a try

if you have backed up EFS then it's cool.... you said you backed up the folder? do you literally mean backing up the folder or did you use a program like EFS Pro to backup? it's better use a software like EFS Pro or WIN EFS BACKUP RESTORE
so did you flash the modem?

I have an Italian N7105 too with H3G network carrier so can I really flash the honk-Kong carrier modem? And it work just fine with Italian carriers?
Otherwise where can I find some other modem to flash that will work with my carrier?
Sorry but I'm still a noob to this kind of mods
Thanks

read this thread from the beginning I have posted links to download modems.. I don't know about Italy read about their frequencies but I'm only assuming if you have an N7105 then the modems should work for you and don't forget to backup EFS...please read the whole thread..... also you can ask antonello66 who started this thread about his experience I believe he is from Italy

firstly battery drainage will always happen whenever you use mobile data especially 3G/4G and even more when you are on the move like waking or in the car
before you blame too much on the modem have you gone to SETTINGS > BATTERY to see if there is an app which drains more battery??
also if all fails just flash some other countries modem...i use Hong Kong version and I'm happy with it.
