[Q] What is that watermark I got - Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti

Hello
My note 8 bricked yesterday without any known cause and it was stuck on the galaxy note 8 start screen when I started it and clearing the cache and resetting it didn't work either so I downloaded an official firmware from sammobile and tried to flash it via odin.
the problem is I downloaded 3 different firmwares(4.4.2 and 4.2.2)from the website and every time I got like a watermark message and I can tab through it but it is really annoying and it is on the home screen all the time , I don't know what is it and I tried clearing cache and user data from recovery too but it didn't help
N5100XWDNE2_N5100OJVDNE2_XSG
N5100XWDNF1_N5100OJVDNF1_XSG
and another one I can't remember because I deleted it the first time
Thanks in advance

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.

[Q] Return to stock SM-T900

Hi,
I have a Samsung Tab Pro 12.2. I rooted my tablet and i wanted lollipop so i got CyanogenMod Rom for Samsung Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2 SM-T900 (v2wifixx).
Now I want to sell my tablet and return it back to stock. I tried the three Netherlands options from sammobile.com and used odin. Every time it says it was successful but when it boots up I get the Samsung logo and it stays in the screen and nothing happens.
Any help would be really appreciated!
Thank you in advance.

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.

Phone not connecting after security update

Hi All,
I have T-Mobile version of S20, which was unlocked long time ago. I recently switched to Verizon and the phone working perfectly fine. This morning I received security update for May 2021 from T-mobile and after that phone is not able to connect to network. Verizon technician tried troubleshooting, but they asked me to do a factory reset.
Does anyone know how to connect back to network with factory reset?
Thanks in advance.
Wow, it's really secure now
So the old factory reset solves everything bs solution... I tend to curse techs out if they mutter those words.
Before you go Dr Strangelove full nuke nuts:
Try clearing the system cache
Try a network reset
Try clearing the data in the sim card toolkit
Then try a hard reboot (simulates pulling battery).

Thanks for reply, but so far I have already tried clearing system cache, network reset, setting reset and hard reboot (can't do battery pull in new Samsung Lol). I am thinking of flashing t-mobile or verizon firmware using odin.

That sucks. I haven't updated my Note 10+ in over a year, deliberately. Zero issues.
The reflash sounds like a plan.
Since you're doing that anyway see what the factory reset does. Unless it's an old load I try to avoid doing that and find the root cause to prevent it from happening again.
In this case though you know the root cause...

Did the factory reset, but it didn't work. Trying to get correct firmware to flash using odin.
I flashed Verizon version of firmware downloaded from Sammobile.com using Moded Odin provided in this thread that fixed the phone. https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...e-links-and-flashing-discussion-here.4054757/
Data was lost because of factory reset I did already.
Report the issue to Samsung Members app, I've seen other people who switched carriers while keeping their devices face the same sort of problem. If Samsung does come up with some sort of solution or maybe the carrier comes up with a solution, you can be kept up to date with it.

I had the same problem. Did a reset and nothing. I haven't flashed any firmware in a while. I have another phone that I can use for a while and maybe I can wait until there is a solution or another update. My s20 is also from tmobile unlocked.

Any direct link to the Verizon firmware or the name of the file that you downloaded? There are many files for different processors. I have the T-mobile S20 bought in T-mobile and was unlocked via T-mobile after I payed for it.
UGGG!! Same problem here. T-mobile seems to have had something in the update that has carrier locked the phone again. After a complete data reset the phone doest ask for a Verizon pin when I insert the sim card though.
Please help!!
