Hi everyone, just brought a S4 mini dual sim. Here are the specs:
Model : GT-l9192; Android : 4.4.2
Baseband : l9192DDUCNG2
Kernel : Stock (3.4.0-2053775 [email protected]#1 Wed Jul 9 13:02:38 KST 2014)
Build Number : KOT49H.l9192DDUCNG2
SE for Android status : Enforcing
Secure boot status : type: Samsung
RF Cal: 2014.03.07
HW Rev: MP 0.600
Started this thread to resolve and discuss some issues as the ROM is recent and not much is discussed about it. Coming straight to point:-
1. Any possible and working rooting methods for this one?
2. I believe it does not have Knox bootloader, so warranty issues can be tackled by flashing it to stock. Am I right?
3. Battery drains rather fast. Have searched for it, but all previous issues are related to older firmwares. Any workarounds?
=>My battery drained from 100% to 75% in just 7 hours (overnight). I have both sims installed, WiFi on, WhatsApp running (received only 2 messages in that period), Google location service ON. Data Off. STILL i feel its a bit too much.
4. Any scripts for removal of Samsung bloatware (provided I root it successfully).
5. Clock (Time) seems to lag by 10 to 15 min after I remove battery for sometime (2mins or so). Date and Time setting is to manual. Previously kept it on network provided, but the time was 15 min behind the correct local time. thought it was a network issue. Still trying to monitor.
6. Sometime just reboots (happened thrice), every time while working on different apps.
If you have similar issues or have any solutions for the same, would be greatly obliged.
1) Yes It can be rooted - Read Here
2) It has Knox bootloader 2, you will trip it and loose warranty.
3) It is a samsung stock rom. As expected
4) Had seen a script somewhere, search the forum. I do it manually and disable/delete unwanted apps.
5) Never had trouble with clock. Always use network provided time.
6) I have had some random reboots but not too frequent. Before you do decide to root and void the warranty. Use the phone and if there are defects get them checked. Lots of bad handsets in india with 9192. I am running cm11 now with knox tripped.

Since there is no info about Knox here, so i believe it's not there. Or else, any other method to check?
PS: oops there are preloaded knox apps. So you are right!!
Also can you pse provide link for cm11 and how has been its performance. Are there any issues with the rom??

They are nighties so not bug free. I use a very old build as that works well for me. Cm11 build stable by sekil
You can try the newer builds too. Also once your root , you can flash knox free samsung rom too. Try towelroot and see if your lucky and knox is not tripped.

I think the update is useless, guess I reacted too early, it was ok for a few days but, now again the battery drain and one new thing - the camera fails to initialize sometimes. I don't know what's wrong with Samsung guys??
Hope some geek gets some solution to this..

- How to easily access the hidden service menus?

and pressed thanks buton
Thank you very helpful info
I am new to android and i have s4 mini i9190 which had stock rom 4.2.2 jelly bean.
four days ago i installed TWRP using odin but was so scared to install custom rom. Anyway i still made a back of everything(modem, EFS, Boot, System, Cache, Preload and Data). Two days ago i installed CM12.1 and i really liked it but the problem is camera. The pic captured while recording video is in low resolution compare to stock camera. so kind of slow too.
Can i go back to jelly bean using the restore without any problem?
and which restore option should i leave checked.
My knox is 0x1.
Can someone please help me go back to stock rom?
A question the system format is required to install the rom ??
Do anyone know when they stopped producing i9195 and i9195i ? I need to buy the latest version, because my i9195 was made in 2013 and have that battery drain issue even with new batteries...

Hi,
I've been reading allot but I got lost a bit.
I have an i9195 LTE bought in Germany (but not used in Germany), and the biggest problem I have is the low volume of the device. I can barely hear the ring.
I decided to wait for the KitKat update to see if triggering KNOX will cause problems.
I tried the safe root which did not work for me.
Should I update to KitKat and then root? Will the update itself improve the volume issues?
Do you recommend updating to KitKat or will it bring more problems?
Important: I "unlocked" the device in Germany with a local sim, the update should not reverse this, right?
I am also missing the option to choose LTE network, how can I fix this?
Many Thanks !
Details of my device:
Model number: GT-i9195
Android version: 4.2.2
Baseband version: I9195XXUBML4
Kernel version: 3.4.0-2340422
[email protected] #1
Sat Dec 21 01:33:54 KST 2013
Build number: JDQ39.I9195XXUBML4
SE for Android status:
Enforcing SEPF_GT-I9195_4.2.2_0022
Secure boot status: Samsung
anyone please?
Waiting for an answer too, volume is quite low yeah but I've read KitKat users have many bugs and it is better to stick to 4.2.2 for a lil bit..
NO!!! .. you have ml4 i think it doesnt have knox !! .. wait as the kitkat wont help you .. just wait for a stock no-knox rom and flash my volume boosting mod
It does have knox, and from what I read it doesn't have saferoot available.
It's hard to follow all the threads regarding the rooting options and possible issues I will encounter, so I hope someone could recommend me what to do..
* The main issue that bothers me is the volume, which I need root to fix.
* If I root will it be problematic to upgrade to KitKat?
* Is KitKat better or should I stick with 4.2 ?
Thanks !!
Greetings,
After upgrading to 4.3 [NE1] firmware through OTA, my wifi can't find many hotsport. The signal strength becomes very weak.
At the same location, my S3 can find 10 conenctable hotspot, but this note 2 can only search less than 3, and barely connect any of them successfully.
I studied a lot of solution at XDA, then I determined to root my note 2 and get it fixed.
Thought it's relative to KNOX security; so after root this phone, I
- install supersu.zip
- install script file to remove Knox
Almost refer to below thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2731043
Doing everything completely and successfully, however, my wifi still runs not very well.
Anyone can provide recomemndation for me?
If changing modem will help wifi connectivity?
Mine is region-BRI /Taiwan/ revision (PDA: N7100ZSUENE1 CSC: N7100OZSENE1 MODEM: N7100ZSENE1). Or, shall I update my firmware through Philz-recovery to 4.4.2 directly? Any specific revision I can upgrade it directly?
thanks you all of your ideas!

Does it tell you that the tablet has been changed or that there are no updates? If it is the first one, its probably because its rooted. If it is the later one i dont really know what could cause it, might be a branded tablet or something. Never been without Root so i have never done OTA updates on the Note8
1. It should be completely OK to flash that ROM
2. I have flashed several ROMs and kept the modem files and it works fine, tho with the ROM you are about to use you can flash it all without any problem as it is made for nordic countries
3. I have read the same, I have not tried to go back from 4.4 so i can not say if it is possible or not. But i am sure there are loads of threads about reverting and the KitKat bootloader.
4. Welcome to a really sweet tablet, tho there are not many custom ROMS developed for it, but those that are, are working really well
Thanks my savor for the answer
about my no update thing , if i checked for updates i got
"The latest updates have already been installed "
it was a crazy offer from Elgiganten nearly 50% off price i got it for 1990 sek although due to web error on elgiganten site i managed to buy it Electroword
so this not branded ?
and about bootloader thing , as i read we cannt replace it back , we can flashi4.1 or 4.2 with odin but still the bootloader will be 4.4 and many have issues with this combo
i read that 4.4 cause some problem for some users like spen 2mm off etc so i like to have to the option to completely downgrade or at least i will update to 4.2
what do you think
by the way did the Nordic version got 4.2 update ? i cannt find it on sammobile
and again thank you very much

I dont think we got 4.2 at all, i used Civatos ROM during 4.2 and now i use rooted stock and i have no problems at all actually. S Note might be a little bit more sluggish to write in than before but nothing major anyways.
I have also read about the 2mm off center Spen, i had that in 4.1, and then it was more or less than 2mm depending on where on the screen i pointed.
I it were up to me, i would upgrade, but if you want to be able to revert back to 4.1 that would be a problem. Maybe try a custom ROM first? But that would mean breaking warranty and if something happens you will have all the hassle of returning it to stock with no trace of custom ROMs I have done this three times so i know how frustrating it is,
The problem i had then with my Note8 was that the Spen would not register on a 2-3cm wide strio on the upper part of the screen. I think this was because i used a magnetic case (non OEM). and the two times following it was the service station that messed things up so that i had to revoke the purchase and get a new Note8 So i would suggest that if you want to protect your Note you should get a good backcover and then buy a tempered glass screenprotector from ebay. I work at a wire rod mill and i have the note with me everywhere and it doesnt have a scratch on it (plus it fits in the breastpocket of my flameproof jacket). I do not work directly in the production line but i am at the factory floor more than half my workday
A little sidetrack from the ROM-talk but i thought i should give my 2 cents on the Note, now i have to sleep... even tho we get a "free hour" I dont want to be a wreck in the morning
Thanks again and again
and i think i will try a custom first as you suggested , i read that i can have 4.4 room based on 4.1 bootloader
so i can check 4.4
and thanks about the case and protector advice , my main use for the tablet is in home so fro now i got a samsung book cover for it it is not the powerful protection but i liked that it is thin .
i was afraid of magnetic cases -non oem - as they have strong magnet so i bought the oem
have a nice dreams and for me it is custom room searching time

Hi all
i am a beginner here and i am trying to catch up
to the point
i bought a new note 8.0 lte version from Sweden , it came with 4.1.2 out of the box
after setting it up i searched for updates but they tablet keep telling me no updates i know there is 4.2.2 and even 4.4.2
my tablet info after dialing *#1234# is
PDA: N5120XXBME1
CSC: N5120OXXBME2
MODEM: N5120XXBMD9 and i found this version is for nordic countries with code Nee
after searching sammobile i found this version
PDA: N5120XXDNE4
CSC: N5120OXXDNE1
MODEM: N5120XXDNE4
also with product code NEE
so my questions
1- is it ok to flash this room on mine ?
2- i read that i can even flash any - note 8 .0 LTE kitkat room - if i keep my moden info from the original room
is that true ??
3-i read also due to bootloader version if i updated to 4.4 i cannt revert back to my 4.1 is that true?
even if i had the original room of 4.1.2 * i downloaded it from sammobile
thanks

If you want official 4.4.2 install Samsung KIES (download), and plugin a cable between PC and tablet, then install the update through Samsung Kies,
Hi Guys,
I have switching roms in these few months. Recently, I tried to use back the stock rom N7105XXUFOB2. Everything went normal until I found 2 problems:
1. imei is blank with /01 when typing *#06#, but baseband was shown and I can still get the network. (My mistake for not backing up the efs folder)
2. GPS not found, tried with google map and waze but same issue. Tried with gps status also to no solution. (No satellite at all)
Then, I went for customs rom, GPS works and network works as per normal but with imei blank and baseband display. Anyone got idea on how to resolve it?
Appreciated if anyone can help.
Where did you get the stock ROM? Is that the latest stock ROM for the phone?
I found these stock ROMs: https://updato.com/firmware-archive-select-model?exact=1&q=GT-N7105

I have forgotten where I downloaded it. But definitely not sammobile as it requires user login.
Below is the version I use.
PDA/AP Version: N7105XXUFOB2
CSC Version: N7105OLBFOD1
MODEM/CP Version: N7105XXUFNI2
Region: Singapore (singtel)
Are you saying that the stock rom I am downloading is not genuine or somehow corrupted?
Is that possible that imei blank, baseband still around and mobile signal works as per normal? Because I am facing it. lol.
By the way, in 4.4.2, is there anyway to do screen mirroring to samsung tv? Firstly, it mentions 'Unable to Start Screen Mirroring because of Hardware Issues'. Then I checked online and edit build.prop file by adding in “wlan.wfd.hdcp=disable“. Then the hardware issue quote is gone but the tv screen is blank.
I would flash the latest stock ROM from updato.com.
I'm not sure how you can get any cell or data service from your carrier without success valid IMEI.

Ya, it is very weird. But just to confirm again. If I reflash the rom from the website you mentioned, Is that possible to fix the blank imei issue? I think it is going to be 50-50.
I have tried googled this issue, I found some said to change imei using mtk tool, does it apply to galaxy note 2 as it mentioned works for Mediatek devices and not sure about others?
Just a friendly reminder that XDA does not permit any discussions related to changing an IMEI.
Flashing the latest stock ROM will sometimes being back the IMEI.

Understood. I found the same rom in updato, just wonder why some roms with same android version but different pda version so late? (Eg, France (Orange) (FTM), N7105XXUFQH1, 4.4.2- 17 Sept 2017)
Is it just because the rom is being updated late in updato?
Different ROMs for different regions and carriers. Not all ROMs have the same languages too.

Understood and thanks for your explanation. For stock firmware, do you have problem doing screen mirroring to smart TV?
Unfortunately, I can't comment on mirroring because I haven't had a Samsung phone for a while.

Oh I see, never mind then.
The problem on the stock firmware is that manufacturer has already abandoned the phone. Therefore, many apps have been discontinued and that's why the screen mirroring is not working. But I trully love the stock camera app compared with custom rom. :crying:
Now I'm using custom rom and will continue monitoring first. :laugh:
Anyway, thanks again.
I think the note 2 has decent hardware and could probably run 6.0 with no problem but Samsung would sell fewer phones

Ya, you are right. I am not using custom rom resurrection remix nougat version. The camera is not as smooth as the stock camera which is sad for me. My wife did complain to me that the phone with this rom was lagging, which led me to back to stock firmware.
But now I am back to same rom so far is ok, only that I need to make sure the phone can run smoothly and I will be happy to use it. Cheers.
