[Q] Problems with my n7105 - wrong device name, and 'error' during charging - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hallo, and thanks for your time.
Sometimes when i try a new rom from the n7105 forum, the install fails - and i am informed that the rom
is not supporting the t03g device.
Which is weird, since i have a t0lte, with working LTE connectivity.
What could cause that, and how do i solve the problem?
The other problem i have, is that when my phone sometimes gets completely drained, and i plug it in.
The charging icon on screen is frozen, and the light on the phones LED doesnt indicate that it is beeing charged.
And it refuses to be turned on.
But if i unplug it after a few mins, then i can turn it on.Then i quickly plug in the power again and it continues to function properly - with the LED turning green and the icon in the notification bar
showing that it is beeing charged.
On my phone, ive currently installed:
ROM: Slimkat 4.4.4 build 8.0 official 6952
Recovery: CWM Philz touch 6.46.3
At one point i tried the AGNI kernel - i forgot if it was pureSTOCK, or pureCM.
But shortly after i messed up, and lost IMEI etc. So i reinstalled the stock firmware from sammobile.com as per their instructions
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/download/33018/N7105XXUFNE3_N7105HTDFNF1_HTD.zip/
That one matches my country, and it is the carrier i originally bought the phone from.
After the installation - i used Odin to install Philz recovery, and i used that to get slim rom on my phone again.
Actually, now that i write this. I dont remember if i used a backup (so the kernel is back on my phone.) or if i just got the latest (at that time) rom from slimroms.net
I hope someone can help me figure this out. I dont know enough to find cause of the problem.
I often read the phrase, "give me the logcat" - if that is needed to solve my problems, i would need instructions on how to.
Again, thanks for your time.

bump

Problem solved.
Im not sure what it was.
But i solved it by reinstalling the original firmware from sammobile, and then doing a fresh install of slimkat 9

Actually no - its still there.
When the battery gets completely drained, the charging animation doesnt start. And i cannot turn on the phone while it is plugged in.

[HELP] Bricked, almost dead Defy+

i bought this Defy+ just a couple of days ago and i was trying to get CM7. I struggled to root it but i achieved it. I wiped and did all the procedure before installing it, but i didn't had enough space on my SD, so i rebooted and booted like a brand new defy, going through the Blur config and everything... So i went to Recovery again, but at this time i forgot to do the wiping - which, i guess, led to a brick.
So i managed to get a .sbf to flash it.. What i didn't realized is that the .sbf was a custom, so i guess this ****ed up my phone even more. And so i went on trying to rescue my phone but this time i couldn't complete the flashing process, i wasn't able to perform a downgrade - i guess. After this, i got a non-rootable .sbf and began the flashing. The process got stuck on some message at 0%, then i disconnected the phone.
When i was able to download a stock firmware, from the .sbf thread, the phone wouldn't reboot when RSD asked, it didn't turn on again. So i tried to re-flash it, same .sbf and now i'm stuck with this situation: the pc is not recognizing my phone, i have a black screen - not even the Bootloader error screen is appearing and i'm here, begging, for someone to help me. is it dead? can i get it back?
HELP, PLZ
Is there any juice in the battery left? Does the phone even turn on or did you just drain all of your battery? If so, you have a couple of options - do McGyver or find somebody with the same phone and ask him to charge your battery and then start over. I would strongly recommend you take the second option.

it doesn't turn on, but i guess it does have battery, i can see the led on when i connect it to the pc
Led is always on when connected to the PC - it means nothing. If it doesn't turn on, then your battery's dead. Find someone who has the same phone and can charge it for you.
I think there is no problem, but you flash older firmware, which is probably due to the 7 bootloader does not go up.
try to be flash with one of these (2.3.6 GB)

Sorry for bad English
"As of today there is no a full SBF** for the Defy+ (found here).
This full SBF is a new CG Version**, with Android 2.3.6. You wont be able to go back to your Stock Defy+ Rom, but at least you wont kill it if something goes wrong."
i successfully flashed it but still it won't turn on, i'm almost giving up on this one

If it gets past the red m and just keeps playing the android animation then simply pull battery hold volume - put battery in and keep volume - held when you get the android and the triangle press volume + and - and wipe all, should boot, unfortunately you've just flashed the un root able sbf and are stuck on moto standard
teamwork makes the dream work
nevermind, i flashed other sbf version and it is now working; too bad this version isn't rootable
anyway, many many thanks for all the help

[Q] Strange things followed by brick galaxy nexus.

Phone is Verizon Galaxy Nexus, running the vicious jellybean build that first came out (yeah I was too lazy to install a new ROM when the first Jellybean build I got my hands on worked fine)
Alright so here's the sequence of events,
Last night - phone working just fine
When I went to look at my phone and set an alarm for when I went to sleep I noticed it was powered off. So I tried to power it on and it hanged at the Google logo. It did this for about 20 minutes, and then I pulled the battery and tried again. This time I left it at the Google logo bootscreen over night (plugged in). Note: I'm not sure if it was bootlooping or hanging at this point, I don't remember it vibrating)
I'm awaken in the morning by the sound of my phone vibrating every 10 seconds. I look at my phone and it's at the unlock screen but the only things I can do are emergency call and, strangely, it asks me to enter a password to decrypt my phone. I never encrypted it. I started freaking out, at this point I probably should of started Googling for a default password or something, but in my morning stupor I rebooted the phone and it just bootlooped on me.
I got into CWM recovery, looked for a NANDROID backup but it kept telling me sdcard wasn't mounted, and attempting to mount it failed. I'm not seriously scared.
Reboot back in to CWM recovery to see if anything changes. Nope.
I Google this problem and land on this page. (I guess I can't post links, but it tells me I just have to reflash CWM) I think, "oh, I just have to reflash CWM. Not too hard!
I downloaded the GN toolkit and update to the latest CWM touch.
Attempted to reboot phone - nothing happens. All buttons unresponsive, no battery shows up when trying to charge. My laptop doesn't find it.
More Googling. I land on this page (link removed - GSM forums for legija's .bat unbrick fix thing), so I try plugging in my phone to my laptop without the battery, sure enough I see the OMAP 4460 device attempting to install. I follow the instructions and install the OMAP drivers, but when I plug in my phone it acts as if its being unplugged and replugged back in constantly. It won't stay connected for more than 3 or 4 seconds without reconnecting, so any attempts to try and use the .bat file fail
And so that's where I am. I have my phone plugged in right now incase for some reason it isn't charged, but I'm stuck. I hope I gave enough information for anyone to help me, thanks!

some also have had this issue "It won't stay connected for more than 3 or 4 seconds without reconnecting, so any attempts to try and use the .bat file fail"
but no, they've managed to do it in the end, it's just that you have to be ultra-quick
can you still get in fastboot/bootloader? if yes, flash latest twrp (i'm sure it supports encryption); if after flashing twrp it still doesn't work, flash google stock images by following the procedure here
Thought I should update this in case anyone else manages to hard-brick their phone, but I sent it in to Samsung and they replaced the entire mobo under warranty. I think they either didn't care or it was bricked enough where they couldn't tell I rooted it. Also good side effect of fixing the finicky USB port on my phone. Happy ending!

[Q] "GT-S7560" What ROM's currently exist? and help with some issues with current ROM

[Q] "GT-S7560" What ROM's currently exist? and help with some issues with current ROM
So.. first I want to know what ROM's currently exist for my "GT-S7560", not the M version. ("Samsung Galaxy Trend" from Vodafone Portugal)
if you'd be kind enough to list them for me.. it would be great.. cus I didn't find anything.
Second I'd like to know how can I reset the entire phone, to the original ROM, etc.. to put it like new.
Third, I'll explain why I need to know those things above..
1 month ago, I flashed this ROM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2674091
All is fine.. phone is much faster with this new ROM..
But, my battery overheats.. when charging or not.
When my battery goes below 5%, it doesn't shut down the phone automatically like it says on the ROM page.
I go to sleep, I have my battery full, wake up next day. phone is turned off with 0% battery.
Can't charge it up again, cus it doesn't charge with the phone turned off. I was successful on charging it with the phone off for a few times.. but no longer.
So now i borrowed a battery from a friend, so I can fix this.. so I could turn on the phone...
So the problem must be the ROM. and so I need another one.. Or the stock one.. or a Stable one.
Hope you can help me..
Thz..
*I tried to revert back with my backups.. but they are corrupted.

Hi , you should try to install a stock rom..because custom roms have a lot of bugs...you can find a stock rom on samfirmware.com...and flash it via odin..it`s easy..put the phone in download mode by holding power , menu and volume down buttons at the same time..

Ok.. did that.. all went ok.. but the Wi-fi doesnt work now. Can't turn it on.. and its stuck on "Turning on..."
I've wiped cashe and delvin or whatever.. and still stuck at "Turning on.."
Best option is get cyanogenmod 4.4.1 20130813 (I believe ill get direct link) kylessopen it has few bugs but seems to b only one that kinda works perfectly minus the bugs

[Q] Does not power off anymore!

I'm using just ARTMOD 5.2.2 and at the same time I also changed recovery, switching to the TWRP (2.8.0.1)
I can no longer charge the battery with the phone turned off:
If it's already off then just plug in the cable the phone turns on again
If I power off the phone while it is charging, rather than turn off it restarts (same thing by powering off from TWRP).
I've tried several cables and chargers.
What is the component that charges the battery from the phone off? One that shows the charging icon with the percentage ... The kernel?
Does anyone have the same problem?
thanks
As far as I understand from what was discussed before about this topic, this is the issue with the unlocked bootloader, and is not related to a particular ROM or recovery. I have the same issue - the phone can't stay off when charging. Doesn't bother me much, frankly...

Thanks for your reply.
This makes sense even if the behavior varies depending on the rom / recovery installed.
I do a search on the subject but if you have a good link...
I hazard a guess that it has something to do with your TWRP 2.8.0.1 install---if you unpack recovery.img, under \ramdisk\res\images, you will find the offline charger icons stored in a directory called charger. I've heard rumors that 2.8.0.1 is somewhat problematic.
Have you tried to flash an earlier version of TWRP to see if the behavior repeats, such as TWRP-2.6.3.0_E975_MR.zip (google it and you'll find the download; apparently I am not allowed to post outside links)?
Personally, I am running an unlocked bootloader (z30d), TWRP 2.6.3.0, PA 4.5 BETA4 with faust93's experimental Franco kernel. Offline charging works fine.
Hope it helps and good luck.

[SGH-I747] Just reboot

Hi everyone, i just bough a I747 unlocked, im from Venezuela.
It come with last stock rom (tough its 4.4.4) and i rooted, instaled Philz Touch Recovery and flashed Cyanogen Nighties 13, from the official cyanogen site all fine here (btw i have to update the modem so the sim can be recognized). Yesterday i download the last nightie and installed via recovery, and start to reset just turning on, i mean, the phone get to the desk, and turn on totally, then just turn off (this happen when i tried to open a app or just open the menu, now make it just after 4 seconds of tottally turn on). I make a full wipe again and install the previous version of Cyanogen, and the problem still, wipe all data and cache, same with Dalvik Cache.
Something curios happen yesterday, the phone make the sound that makes on low battery, i plug to charger and it turn off, and show the battery with 42%, it work perfectly with charger plug in, but when i disconect it turn of and i have to turn on, REALLY SORRY FOR THE BAD ENGLISH, I TRIED MY BEST TO EXPLAIN THE PROBLEM, IF U DONT UNDERSTAND SOMETHING, ASK ME AND I WILL TRY AGAIN TO EXPLAIN BETTER.
I uploaded the modem withouth making it version by version, i just upload to I747UCUEMJB withouth the others, i dont know if this make the error happen, becuz i have a few days working with it before the error happen.
Im now dowloading OctM to test.
Sreeens from InfoSamsung

Detele spaces
Okay, i just install last octo-m, the phone have to still plug to turn on, but then i can disconnect and works normally. I could appreciate if someone gets me a Stock Rom for the SGH-I747 so i can comeback to TouchWiz, and help me with to bootloader/modem updated guide, i think the problem is on there.
Nope, the phone still gettin off, doest'n last even 3s on desktop.
If the phone was running stock 4.4.4 and you installed the mjb modem which is from 4.3, this may have caused the problem. Maybe flashing a newer modem may solve the problem.
Just bought a new battery and the problem it's gonne, thansk to reply, the problem was a bad battery. (the phone isn't new, i buy from 2nd hand)
