it is safe to instal MIUI ROM 3.12.13 rom on galaxy note 2 ( on official 4.3 ).. this is my first time.. i still have to root my device.. bt first of all i want to know that as im on official 4.3.. it is safe to instal miui ??as i heard that official 4.3 has new modem n knox security ..i think MIUI ROM 3.12.13 build on jellybean 4.1 and im on official 4.3..
If you have warranty remaining,installing any custom rom will void your warranty as this will trip knox flag.
If you are out of warranty then take a EFS backup first before installing any custom rom,then install a custom recovery and flash any rom you want.
Note:There is always risk(s) associated when flashing a custom rom on your device thats why you see every custom rom thread with a warning but overall if you follow each n every instruction,you wont have any problem.

Hello
I want to know what is the difference between m16 and mj5
And which of them is better
And does any note 2 device can run all of them or every one of them requires spacific recuirements
MI6 build was first leaked 4.3 ROM
MJ5 was second and subsequent leaked build. Consensus is official version will be fully functoinal MJ5.
MJ5 requires the new bootloader to be flashed otherwise your wifi will not work. If you flash new bootloader you cannot downgrade to 4.1 ROMs, you will have to stay on 4.3. Also Knox is integrated into MJ5 while MI6 not so much.
My personal choice is to stick with MI6 until official ROM drops and our devs tear it apart and make it work 'xda' style
Both work on International 7100

My device:- GT-N7100 ( Galaxy Note 2 international Version)
I am currently using Omega 18v (Android 4.1.2)
I would like to upgrade my omega rom to any other custom 4.4.2 kit kat rom..
Now my question is..
1) Can i flash rom directly from 4.1.2 to new downloaded 4.4.2 rom
{ I believe that first we have to upgrade android to STOCK 4.3 and then i need to install 4.4.2 right.. }
Please correct me if i wrong.
2) If I take my 4.1.2 android nand backup using philz recovery..
and then i will install 4.4.2 rom..
Now after installing 4.4.2 can i able to restore my previous backup ie.. 4.1.2

Yes you can directly flash 4.4.2 even if you are coming from 4.1.2 ROM,only thing you'd need is MJ5 bootloader (it's the last known bootloader that is KNOX free and works perfectly with 4.3 and 4.4.2 Touch wiz rom as well 4.4 AOSP ROM .You need MJ5 bootloader basically to have Wifi Working.Some people managed to get it working by staying on old bootloader and only flashing Dr.Ketan's wifi fix but in either case you don't need to upgrade to official 4.3 to flash 4.4.2.If you upgrade to stock 4.3 from samsung you will have Knoxed bootloader which will prevent downgrading to 4.1.2.So if you think you'd ever want to go back to 4.1.2 ROM then you shouldn't upgrade to stock 4.3 and just flash custom roms (after flashing the mj5 bootloader).I can provide you download link and instructions for MJ5 bootloader which can be flashed after upgrading your ROM to 4.3 or 4.4.2.Make sure you have a backup of your 4.1.2 ROM along with EFS PARTITION(that's a must) and then proceed ahead with flashing new ROMS.

Well, first of all you need to be on 4.3 stock
Then, flash the CWM using flashtool (4.4 CM11 kernel, don't use 4.3 kernel)
Then put the Custom ROM that you want to your sdcard and flash it using CWM
And follow the instructions and done! :laugh:
Hello to all the community, I have a question, I need to know if it is possible to downgrade from a room with Android 4.4.4 to 4.4.2 or 4.3 with .. Basically I installed the next room:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2541860
The rom works perfectly, but I wonder if it is possible to downgrade?
Sorry for my English ..
A rooted version of the 4.4.2 or 4.3 rom can be used to downgrade. ..if using a touchwiz based build. ..but the bootloader cannot be downgraded if you flashed or updated to official 4.3 or 4.4.
Knox flag will be tripped and any warranty will be voided. ..g
I flashed unofficial CyanogenMod on my t807t Galaxy S Tab but now I want to return to stock can I just flash the stock firmware I found on XDA to TW RP or do I also need a kernel so I don't break my hard brick my device. Thank you
