[Q] [Need recommendation] Wifi issue on 4.3 - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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!

[GT-I9192] [OFFICIAL 4.4.2] [India: DDUCNG2] Problems & Discussions

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.

Are u sure it`s fixed ? I did write to them but i don`t know if they had time to patch kernel. Maybe i will try and use stock kernel for a while
Samsung update useless!!

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..

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

CSC: N5120OXXDNE1
MODEM: N5120XXDNE4
also with product code NEE

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

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

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,

N5110 Stock stagefright patch info?

My wife's fully stock (4.4.2) N5110 started getting update notifications from Samsung Software Update.
Per the info, it's a 7.61 MB 'device stability and bug fixes' patch that includes security enhancements and StageFright fix.
Is there information on everything installed with this patch?
Will installing this block any future attempts at root / installing a custom ROM? (If she ever lets me; this is solely her device and doesn't care about root/ROMs )
Since this is a wifi only note8 - how vulnerable is it to stagefright if I don't patch? Everything I've read says 'stagefright is more than an MMS vulnerability' but then the details only go into the MMS vuln :|
Thanks in advance and sorry if this has been covered elsewhere - I searched and didn't find anything.
I noticed the update today and decided to install it. It did not take very long to install and the Android version number is still 4.2.2, so it doesn't seem that there is anything major. I have yet to notice any changes, but I haven't used my tablet much today I should note that I am also using the wireless version of the Note 8.0 and I have never rooted this devices.
If I learn anything else I'll post here.
It's too bad that they didn't decide to bump things up to 4.4.4 (could use those Bluetooth fixes that were introduced in 4.4.3) while they were at it.
Anyway, I just noticed that there's a new stock rom posted for the USA variant on Sammobile.com and samsung-updates.com. So this is officially "a thing." Haven't flashed it myself yet and I probably won't; I've moved on to Cyanogenmod 12.1. But it's nice to know that Samsung is still pushing out updates for this thing.

Question regarding ROOT and ROMs on old Galaxy Tab 3

Hello, I'm new here and I'll go straight to my issue. A couple of days ago, I was gifted an old used galaxy tab 3 (3G and Wifi, 7 inch, SM-T211). The thing is, I did a factory reset from the OS BEFORE noticing it was already rooted and should've done it from the TWRP. What's more, it strangely left lots of data after it (super su is still installed, it left photos and accounts remembered). So, question #1: Is it safe to do a factory reset now, even after I incorrectly did it from the os. (btw, check root says the root is still ok) Then, my other question is regarding the OS version. It currently has 4.1.2 Jelly Bean and while it tecnically supports 4.4.2 KitKat oficially, the official repository from Samsung doesn't have a version for my tab's region (T211ZSANB1, Hong Kong and China). Question #2: Is it safe to install a 4.4.2 oficial rom for a different region (i assume not due to the differents 3G frequencies used, but still wanted to ask). Finally, while I looked up and down in the forum and the only rom I've found for my specific device (a CM11 kitkat build) has a non functional camera. Question #3: does anyone know if there isany fully functional build on the site and, if the is not, is it safe carry both a stock and a cm rom and switching between them on a regular basis?
Thanks in advance to everyone
