Question..Question - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

since updating to 4.2.2 Liquid rom i am unable to downgrade to any version below that without my phone switching off after 5 secs and me having to reboot back in..
any idea?? seems like by upgrading to 4.2.2 something has been upgraded and anything below that, even 4.2.1 just refuses to work and switches itself off.
and doing it through odin with stock rom even fails to stop the phone switching off..it installs fine and then proceeds to promptly switch off, but the minute I put the custom 4.2.2 rom back on...its fine again and doesnt switch off, which makes me think something has been upgraded along the way and anything other than 4.2.2 now will not work correctly on my phone..
How can i get back down to 4.2.1 etc.. is it baseband or something? This makes me think that all others on here with their phones switching off have potentially done the same thing as me? If you have any feedback is welcome...
Also if you managed to fix your shutting down after 5 secs and having to reboot issue issue I would love to know how this was achieved
any help is greatly appreciated as always

Do a mega wipe. Then flash stock rom.
this is XXXDDDAAA

OK mega wipe?? can you explain this to me and how to do that??
I currently have the stock rom for the UK 4.1.1
N7100XXALJ3_N7100OXXALJ4_BTU
so even though I can install this it still switches itself off after 5 secs and I have to reboot.. i am now at my wits end and will try anything to get my phone back to stock and actually working...
so any help is greatly appreciated....

[Q] Phone deactivated?

I was running latest paranoid android and I wiped cache/dalvic cache after flashing Cerberus in recovery and when the phone booted up it was asking me to Activate (sprint service) my phone. I've never seen this with flashing roms and was wondering if this is a known issue with flashing roms on the S3 or something that can randomly occur from time to time.
Anyone have experience with this before? I had been running Paranoid Android for less than 24 hours but initially didn't have any problems whatsoever.
Itll do that sometimes depending on the rom. Usually does it after a factory reset and installing a cm based rom. Its just asking you to add your google account... you should be fine

This didn't have anything to do with my Google account. I guess I should have been more specific, I mean that my phone is deactivated on Sprint's network as in I can't make phone calls and all the info is missing in about phone. Phone number, PRL and such. I am flashing back to stock right now and hope this fixes it. Will probably give paranoid another go but this doesn't sound like a common issue because I haven't been able to find anything by searching.
When you get back to stock it'll probably reactivate itself. If not (although you can do this regardless just in case), ##72786# in the dialer should set you straight. If I'm not mistaken the screen you're referring to should be gone when you boot stock regardless. Its a bug. Doesn't work for a sprint phone but still buried in the rom
Ahhh... could try manually flashing your modem after the install too

Soon as I flashed the stock rom it tried to activate and initially failed and prompted me to reboot. Second attempt it was successful and then I immediately flashed back to PA and it is working. Going to give it another shot and keep the stock rom on my sd card this time in case I get stuck in a pinch.
I jumped the gun, phone activated fine but signal drops in and out randomly and will not connect to 3g. Just reflashed to stock again and everything seemed fine but signal was still back in and out. Checked under status and PRL read "0" tried updating to no avail so did the dialer code and it did the activation and all is right in the world again, or at least for the moment.
Just trying to figure out why when I flash Paranoid all my settings just disappear
*edit*
Just flashed back to PA this third time after fully making sure that the phone was working and had 3G data and all was right with the world (my phone). Will update if it goes South again but as of right now the phone is behaving properly. Maybe it just wasn't working right the first time and I didn't notice since I was on wifi. Only thing that keeps me from thinking that is I didn't get the Activation message until 12 hours or so after I had flashed and had been using the phone. /shrug
I still think flashing a modem in recovery after installing PA would yield a poisitve result

how do you flash a modem? I am new to this and this is also a problem that I am having with the same rom. I tried searching for a fix and this is where i landed.
Thank you,
and sorry if i am breaking forum rules

[Q] Constantly losing my 3G Connection with AOKP

Hello, I have a problem with my phone that is driving me insane. This problem started happening a few months back when I rooted my phone and installed AOKP milestone 6 maguro. Every day, at least three times, I have to turn on my airplane mode and turn it off (which is glitchy and takes way too long) to get my data back. Not a big problem, but its INSANELY annoying after this has been happening for months.
Why do I keep losing my 3G connection? I'm with Wind Mobile, and my APN's are correct. Should I just go back to stock?
Try setting your minimum CPU frequency a little higher, say 500-700...

Done and tested for the day, no change in problem.
I think I'm just going to go back to stock. I'll miss my toggles. :'(
Please write here after you flash stock and tell us if it works. I have this problem to.
Any progress?
I have returned to 100% stock 4.1.2. I still have the same problem. Starting to think its something wrong with the device it self

Apologies for not responding. I forgot about this post. I didn't return to stock yet. I'm disappointed to hear that it may be hardware. Probably will just relock it and unroot it and stuff, return for fixing if its still messed.
make a back up first before you return to stock
flash the latest 4.2.1 from google or just flash the latest radio if you wish, i'd just go with stock image first just in case its your rom ****ing up.

if you are still losing connection with stock rom AND stock baseband everything stock with latest update, then yeah, it is probably hardware issue.

Phone Call Issues

OK last week a did a restore to [ROM ] Pure Stock Rooted and debloated ROM via cwm. After doing it I ran into a bunch of force closes and restored back to my stock ROM I had rooted. Since going back to my rooted stock ROM when I receive a call or place a call. My phone screen shuts off and I can't get the screen to turn back on during the call. If the person on the other end of hangs up. I can then get the screen to turn on and things seem normal. I've tried formatting, wiping cache, and delvic. I've tried other ROM's like CM 4.3 and they all behave the same way. Does anyone know what other things I can try because I'm starting to think I got a F'ed up sensor issue that may be more hardware than software issue.

[Q] Help please

Hi, guys im having some issues and would like some expertise. Okay so i have an s4 the model is m919v but the model is unrelated to the problem. I was running custom roms and have been for a few months and i have a phone that has a locked sim. I heard from someone that i can flash an older version of my modem and get the service menu to unlock... point is i did it and it didnt unlock BUT THATS NOT MY ISSUE. I decided to then revert to stock because my phone was being really glitchy after i tried the unlock. Now i restored my phone and got a custom recovery installed a custom rom that was working flawlessly before is now also being glitchy the same way after i tried to unlock it,
These are some glitches im experiencing:
1) phone app is taking a long time to load and it doesnt type in numbers fast
2) when i call someone it just freezes and i cant go to the call screen
3) no notification sounds coming from my phone it just vibrates but doesnt ring
and im sure a few more
IM SURE THESE HAPPENED AFTER I WENT INTO THE SERVICE MENU AND TRIED TO UNLOCK MY DEVICE.
Someone please tell me what i can do to fix this because ive already reverted to stock once.

You just might want to re-flash the stock rom and before rebooting, clean all the cash and do a factory restore. That should restore the operation to your device.
Only your Pure stock roms will contain any of the modem/boot stuff, if my information is correct.
Aloha and Good Luck!
