no i didnt i only wiped it after flashing trying to solve the s note problem, my phone is really tilting and i dunno what to do, tried reflashing and wiping multiple times but no use!

If you come from custom rom, then wipe data and cache partition is required before flashing stock roms. Else some part of last roms remain in system and can create problems.
You can also try by clear data of snote from application setting section.

i had same kind of problem with s note after flashing it with a custom ROM in my gtn 8000. It troubled me alot but finally got the solution by installing languages in keyboard setting.
go to setting>language and inputs >click on settings of Samsung keyboard>choose Handwriting> choose Input languages
u will see lot of languages to download.
download any one of them........................ wait for finishing installation...
Hope it works for u as it did for me.
if does nt work no hard feelings..

I had the same issue, reloaded firmware, clear data and cache with no fix. I thought about to do a factory reset, but just b4 I was going to do it. I suddenly have an idea just flashed in my mind. This is what I did.... go to setting > my device > S pen > put a check mark on the "Open Popup Note when the pen is detached". Then back to the home screen, pull out the S pen and a mini S note will open. Close it and now you should be able to open the regular S Note. It works on my Note 2. Good luck guys.

Did you try rebooting already? I had a similar error when I flashed MIUI, only with the built-in tether. After a few retries and rebooting, it finally worked.
I would try getting another download or re-flash the rom. Did you install the rom on a clean install?
I have tried rebooting multiple times and have had no luck and yes Installed on a clean install and I cleared the Caches also. As for installing another ROM do you have any suggestions? Like I said I am a n00b

If you like intense graphic wallpapers, go for cm7. If you want your Evo to look like an iPhone, go for MIUI.

Unable to install back Sys App after removal

Hi!
First, I would like to give thanks to this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1317394 for a quick guide on rooting my new Samsung galaxy GT-I8150.
My problem
Because my device is now rooted, I was able to uninstall the built-in Music app using Super Manager. But before that I managed to backup the installer using Norton Utilities, the file is Music_1.1.1.apk. I did it on purpose because I thought I could install it back without hassle like other app on the market. Now my phone does not allow it to be installed anymore.
Can anyone help me on this?
Thanks in advance
Hi, may i know are you using stock rom?? If stock rom,all the program is odexed, and it cant simply put back. You should look for "system app remover" to do this,as inside got backup function.
Sent from my GT-I8150 using XDA
I did the same thing before with MyFiles on stock ROM. My advice is don't you ever look back or you need to reflash you phone.
Hello jamestts!
Thank you for your reply!
I'm new to android technology so forgive me I don't know what a stock rom is. But you mentioned about odexed. I noticed that every apk file on my /system/app has a corresponding odex file. Will that make sense?
Yes...if you r using stock rom,all the file is odexed. If u wanna get back ur music.apk,the best way is flash with odin 4.43 ,lower version might brick ur phone. Do some research be4 flashing. Be patient. If u wanna know which firmware u using now,you can dial *#1234# at dial pad. Then you can download ur firmware from sammobile.com . If u interested in custom firmware which is faster,u can always go to developer forum.

I tried to flash my phone using Odin 4.43 with ASIA ROMS, and it was successful. The music app has returned to its place. Seems like I really had a hard reset of my phone. Thanks to you jamestts. But a new problem arises. Sometimes when my phone has returned from Idle, the display is messy. There's an intense brightness with vertical stripes on it. If I turn the display off and then on then suddenly the display is back to normal.
And I think the device volume becomes weaker, android version has been downgraded from 2.3.6 to 2.3.5
Any Idea on how to resolve this issue?

U can simply use odin to flash the latest ROM. They are available in our forum and http://samsung-updates.com/gt-i8150-galaxy-w/

hi there, glad you make it!!!
try install cwm recovery and wipe cache n dalvik cache then reboot. Try to do it twice and see how is it!!! remember is wipe cache and dalvik cache. DO NOT WIPE DATA....else it will factory default again!!
if after restart and still got the same problem, then i suggest restore to default.
OR change wallpaper!!!
it doesnt matter whether you upgrade or downgrade the firmware version. cause i have updated to newest malaysia version which is 2.3.6 then downgrade to cow firmware first version 2.3.5 .
try and see will solve your problem or not. cause i never facing this kind of situation. good luck to you.
I Immediately followed the link provided by yewsiong and flashed the latest firmware. I think my phone is more stable now, it's good as new.
Thank you guys for helping me out. I really learned a lot.
Thank you so much!!!

Thanks for the reply. I tried to install the kitkat SD fix but it isn't compatible with my phone now I've re-installed Jellybean. I also tried editing the platform.xml file to add write permissions but that didn't work either. I would happily use a kitkat rom but every one I tried has problems with the dialer, can't hear anyone and then the phone reboots.

Annoyingly I can't download the original firmware. The only place I can find is rapid gator and it fails after about an hour. Any ideas where I can get the original firmware for my phone?
How difficult can it be to get an original firmware? I just can't get it to download from rapidgator and Samsung don't seem to have direct downloads. Stuck with a knakered phone.
@davidmlondon Did u try sammobile.com ? The official firmwares are hosted on their servers and offer good speeds. But need to create a free account to access firmware downloads. Alternatively you can try samsung-updates.com If i am right they provide 2 links for all roms and u can try any. Good luck.
BTW why do u wanf to return to jb? official kitkat is good enough.

Thanks. Will give that a go. I would rather use Kitkat but every ROM I try has the same problem with the dialer crashing and making the phone reboot. Sometimes people can hear me but I can't hear them and then the phone reboots. Sometimes it just freezes, makes a screeching noise and reboots. I also notice that the signal drops to nothing, which I think is related to the dialler crashing.

did u try different modems like cnf7, cne6, cnh5 and any other. Usually network related issues are due to modems. I see that you are from UK. As far as I can remember samsung did not seed kitkat to uk. So you need to flash firmware of country close to UK like france or germany. Also before and after flashing stock kitkat wipe data/factory reset. And after flashing verify if baseband/modem changed to new one. Good luck

Haven't tried a different modem. Might give that a go before I go back to stock. I downloaded the German version from Sam Mobile. It downloaded successfully. :good: Will try changing the modem before I reflash to stock. I'm using carbon ROM, so will research which modem to flash before I do anything. Thanks for all your help. :good:

How to remove retail mode?

Hi,
I have a galaxy note 2014 edition that has retail mode on, it was a demo ex. Is there anyway to remove this from the device? Maybe through factory reset with stock firmware or something? Have no idea how to do a factory reset with stock firmware if that works.

Hi,
To do a factory reset: Switch off the tablet.
Then power it up by pressing simultaneously and holding : Volume up + Home + Power
When in Recovery mode move the cursor with the volume key and execute with the power key.
Select Factory reset and execute it.

Hi,
OK, the first thing to know is which device you have: Sm-P600/601/605 ??
Then to know which ROM is installed on the tablet ?
If you can go to setting : then scroll down to "About the phone" you should see the version of the ROM.
With that you go to sammobile
You put your device type and you will get all the stock ROM's
You click on the one you want and on the next windows you will have the URL to download and the way to install it.
To be able to download the ROM you have to register on this site but it's free of charge !!

Its a SM-P600,
Kernel Version: 3.4.39-1691324
Build Number: JSS15J.P600XXXUAMI8_LLK
I tried that site but canceled it cause it said it will take 15h to download the firmware.
You can try from HERE
But I am not sure it will be any faster.
Those ROM's are quite big > 1.xx Gb so if your internet connection is slow it's take time.

One more question, I can´t seem to set some kind of password for the lockscreen since the lock screen option is gone in some way. It says something about Knox but what is that?
Can i add some other app that handles the lock screen?
About Knox: it's some kind of security introduced by Samsung some months ago, a real pain in the back..
Have a look HERE (for example) for more details.
Yes you can install applications w/o problem.
Knox will only get involved when you start playing with the ROM's, Bootloader etc ..
Hi
Hello guys, I have an Galaxy S6 Edge Demo version, I want to know if I change the motherboard with another with GSM function, it will work fine ?
The digital finger print doesn't work, I have to change the button or how can I fix this ?
And another thing, in the background of display, you can barely notice a text, this : Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge, this thing is from display or motherboard ? Because I want to know, if I change the motherboard, it will dissapear that text ?
Thank you.
I would like to remove the starting screen ''Live demo unit'' on SM-T800X tablet to the stock one, and after flashing I have got the demo pieces of text in the bottom of the screen.
I tried to re-partition the install with ODIN and used a PIT file but no changes. Anybody can help with this problem please ? Is there any solution to change the demo unit to look as a stock SM-T800 ?
Also if there any solution to change KNOX value to 0 would be great.

The phohe has low memory. Its normal when sometimes you got soft-reboot. But after 10seconds, its unsually.
When its soft problem the steps are:
- factory reset (when it not helped do next step)
- go to download mode and flash your rom via odin (when it not helped do next step)
- get root and uninstall bloodware (when it not helped do next step)
- try custom rom (when it not helped its probably hardware problem)
When its hardware problem the steps are:
- maybe is bad connection between battery and mobil, try to remove battery and give back (when it not helped do next step)
- maybe is bad battery , try new one or from other Ace II mobile (when it not helped do next step)
- I don't know , buy new mobile. ( this step must help you)

I have experienced this before. It's the death of your internal memory.
Only thing you could do is go to Samsung service centre to get it fixed or buy a new phone.
Sorry, mate.

The restart problem happened to me for the ace2nutzer version of the rom I downloaded here:
http://xda.mister-freeze.eu/XDA-files/ace2nutzer/CM11/codina/cm-11-20150714-UNOFFICIAL-codina.zip
Then I installed the ChronoMonochrome version and it managed to boot:
http://xda.mister-freeze.eu/XDA-fil...m-11-20150730-UNOFFICIAL-codina-universal.zip
However, I still could not get WIFI to work.... it seems that after flashing, the MAC address was set to 00:00:00:00. I know my router will never issue IP addresses to MAC addresses that are all zeroes.
