[HELP]Update to DN3 v5 (4.4.2) - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello! Today i wanted to update to the new 4.4.2 ROM from E-team (DN3 v5). So after i format data, system, internal sd, wipe cache and dalvik cache, i install the new rom. No problem, when the install is finished i wipe cache/dalvik cache and i reboot. After that i'm stuck on boot (samsung logo). Can anyone tell me what did i do wrong? Before updating i had DN3 v3.2 and i had no problems.
P.S. I am using the latest TWRP Recovery.

Hi. I suggest you to format the internal storage with TWRP Recovery. This is a full wipe procedure. After that install the ROM again and reboot. If that does not work check your bootloaders version. Reinstall the boot loader or install a never one. But first try the first step.
Good luck...

Thanks for the reply! I already formatted internal storage when i installed it. I don't understand the thing with these bootloaders. How can I check which version i'm on?

Switch to philz ,re do all the wipes for your internal sd card by clicking on "wipe to install a new rom" and wipe cache/partition and by going under advance wipe dalvik cache as well.Flash your rom then. You can switch to philz from twrp by flashing the philz.zip file from here just transfer the zip file to your external sd via card reader and just reboot into your recovery.if you dont have a card reader on you then you can flash philz .tar file in download mode via pc odin.
Philz

I just installed the latest philz and bang, it worked! Before installing latest TWRP i had an older version of philz (5.x) and maybe that was the problem. Thanks man, thanks a lot for your help!

[Q] Recovery Boot Loop

After I install CWM Touch v5.8.1.3 and go into recovery... I get a recovery bootloop... CWM freezes. Then I must reboot and re-flash CWM v5.0.2.7 to get things back to normal. Anyone had this problem? How can I get CWM Touch v5.8.1.3 to install properly?

Alright, I used odin to flash it and it works with no problem for me. Sorry it's not working for you
Correct procedure for flash CWM and any GB ROM
You should never flash cwm from a previous version, you have to do is flash the new version with Odin, is the best and clean method.
Remember to do all wipes, wipe factory, wipe cache partition, wipe dalvic cache, and flash the darkside wipe tool or in mount and storage option format cache, format system and for a more clean installation format mmc (this option format your internal memory, not your Micro SD Card)

Question about installing custom ROM w/ TWRP

Just got a T999 GS3 today. Already rooted and installed TWRP. I do not have an External SD card, so I will be putting the ROM that I want to flash (CM10 Stable) on internal SD card. But since I have to WIPE everything before I install the Custom ROM, how do I make sure that I don't wipe the custom ROM install zip as well?
Do I just do a WIPE of cache, dalvik cache, and system? And make sure that I do not wipe internal storage?
Or is there something else to this?
Thanks!!
Do a factory reset wipe system then wipe both caches install ROM wipe both caches again and fix permissions you should be good.

No, there is a seperate option for that.
1. Factory reset
2. Flash ROM and various files
3. reset dalvik cache and cache
4. Reboot
Easy as that
Which method you followed to root? I just got the phone and look ing for the easy way to root. I heard a lot about lost the IMEI so I'm kind of worry
Thanks all. I'm now running CM10 stable and all seems to be well.

I actually used this method: http://www.androidrootz.com/2012/10/how-to-root-galaxy-s3-on-mac-osx.html. It worked fine and took about 20 seconds. I then used Goo Manager to install TWRP, and then I installed CM10 and Gapps. Whole process took literally about 10 minutes. Wasn't even aware of the IMEI issue prior to rooting. I will have to remember to backup my IMEI sometime today.

+1 :good:
Note to OP: Don't flash Gapps if it is included already in the ROM you installed.
after flash i wipe the cache/dalvik. I think it is the option after you flash in twrp.
Thanks for your answers

[Q] Need help, i can only access twrp recovery mode

I was advised that i needed to update my recovery to twrp from cwm recovery to avoid an issue i got while flashing roms (the contents of my sd card would get pushed down into a subfolder of a newly created set of folders) however when i wiped my phone, as i always used to do with CWM twrp seems to have wiped a lot more, its wiped the existing rom, and all the files on my card, so i cant install a new rom. Basically i only have access to twrp recovery mode, how can i get the rom .zips onto my phone to install them? Id really appreciate any help at all, i had no issues flashing with CWM and i really dont know what to do.
download a rom/gapps and use adb to transfer them to your sdcard.. adb command "adb push file.zip /sdcard/file.zip"..
PS- in twrp wiping data wipes EVERYTHING so when you want to wipe before flashing a rom do a factory reset and DONT wipe data

[SOLVED] CWM doesn't works on my N7100

Hi all,
i've rooted succesfully mi device with the galaxy note 2 toolkit, and now i want to install CMW recovery.
I've installed the recovery using the toolkit and the process ends without any errors. When i try to reboot my device in recovery mode, my screen goes crazy, it starts flashing for second and does nothing else; i must restart the device using the power button.
I've tried the TWRP recovery and this one works fine.
However, with TWRP i'm not able to flash any rom! i've tried 3 roms but they returns a fatal error...
Where am i wrong?
thanks
I had same use long time ago and I get a working version for @unstableapps in twitter. The link was http://t.co/tbuvmTpKPa but don't know if it still online.
Good luck.
