Hi guys, so I have a problem with my Note II. I installed a rom yesterday which is where these problems seem to start from. The phone is glitchy, and when the screen is left of for more than 2 minites or so, it wont turn on unless I remove the battery. Also, after I re-boot the battery level is normally 10% less than before. Another issue I had is that I couldn't boot into recovery after flashing this rom however I have no fixed this by using Odin to re-flash CWM recovery.img. But even after going back to by stock backup I made in CWM before I flashed this rom, the problem still persistes (Laggy, freezes)
All I can think of is that this Rom (Omega 3.0) uses AROMA to install, could that be a issue?
Any Ideas anyone? Im not worried about any of the files on the device just want to get it sorted!
Thanks

Not at all its as easy as a cupcake
Just know the terms for it
Would you hear a brotherly advice (which i would do myself?)
Use the superwipe script from Android Revolution HD and install mike's ROM. It should have the same effect as odin wipe, only better...
Mike's roms are known to be the best ever. They are totally stock! just extreme perfomance...
So its better thsn going back to stock

Right okay that sounds like a plan, I dont know if I will be able to keep the phone on long enough to download all thta and as I cant connect it to the computer unless its in download mode :/ I could give it a go though, could you post a link to what I need please? Yes, im a complete noob
Put the ROM of your choice on internal sdcard (I also put the same zip on the external just in case something goes wrong)
Make the appropriate backups of apps, data, contacts, sms, pictures and whatnot.
Reboot into recovery and do a full wipe, explained here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1909868
Flash ze ROM.
Edit: In CWM, this is how I do a full wipe.
Format system
Format data
Format cache
Format preload
Wipe data/factory reset
Wipe cache
Wipe dalvik cache
Sometimes I also do the "fix permissions" at this point.
Then I flash the ROM.

The revolutiom HD ROM i was talking about is here

You can find the superwipe script from this forum too...
But be sure to put your downloaded rom on SD card, not internal SD...
Well thats my way which i told you you have two choices...you can follow the one of the boy above to see if it helps too?

Try to go back up on stock rom, restore your EFS (if you backed it up!) and claim warranty? there must be a solution with sammy for this...
This isnt normal... you can try :good:
I think thats what im gonna have to do I did try superwipe and still nothing. Is there a easy way to go back to stock? Using odin? Will I have to delete CWM for this? :S

And i just found the backup/restore EFS tool for you http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1922473

Atleast first flash stock rom from sammobile.com (not the rooted ones here)... And then restore EFS...
Then apply check: try to start cwm recovery :good:

Why restoring EFS?? Also i dont think that restoring EFS is ging to erase cwm
Stock roms from sammobile (full roms) include recovery.img, so after flashing with Odin he is going to have stock recovery.After that through stock recovery, wipe cache+wipe data/factory reset.
And before visiting repair center, flash stock rom from sammobile and check your phone if problem is still there. I think that somehow with the custom rom and restoring cwm backup you f***ed up software

Restoring EFS because he is going to give his Note in warranty...
Until you backup and restore your original EFS, samsung keeps the track of the number of times you flash so it does not accept warranty.
Restoring EFS is the only chance to claim warranty.
restoring EFS doesnt remove recovery.. hmmm...
Is there any way to remove recovery?

In order to remove cwm recovery, just flash a full stock rom with pc odin
Are you sure about warranty and EFS? In order to backup/restore original EFS you need root, so one way or another you need to flash one or more times
Are you 100% sure?

I have never flashed any kernels, just custom roms. From what I have read it goes down the same way, just flash the zip from SD in recovery and wipe cache. Correct?
Also, if I want to go back to stock kernel can I flash back to a JOP40C ( this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1992483 ) even though my build is JOP40D ?

just flash it in your recovery(if its a flashable zip). dont wipe a single thing, dalvik and cache have nothing to do with kernels. worst case scenario, it doesnt boot. then just reflash your rom in your recovery to fix it.

franco is a good kernel. but most his kernels are in a img form, need fastboot for that. if its a zip, then flash it in your recovery, dont wipe a thing.

What about going back to stock? I just want to know if something goes wrong. Does flashing my rom get me the stock kernel back?

Even the .IMG files are easy enough to handle, OK so perhaps it might cost you a little money but within the Franco app (I don't know about others as not tried them) but you can simply just choose to restore a .IMG kernel file be it stock (which I have a copy of if you wanted it?) So you can swap and change as you wanted and the plus side of flashing this way is that you avoid the long reboot time dues to catch building again due to ram disk changes. I really think this is the best way of flashing kernels and certainly the easiest way if you wanted to carry on back to the OTA update route from Google.
For instance, I'm running stock takju rom 4.2.1 rom with Franco kernel and I have the stock boot loader and baseband and recovery and to install an OTA I just need to delete just one file and restore back to stock kernel that OTA update will install without troubles
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus
Currently running on AOKP OTA ver. 3.2
I would like to have someone who can guide me slowly step by step carefuly to whatever better option there is.
I been having lots of troubleshooting with phone not responding how it should and I have to keep rebooting to often.
I appreciate your help.
Thank you
Since you're running a custom rom, you could update your recovery to the latest CWM or TWRP and flash a different or updated rom.
Could you help me to do that?
Just guide me step by step.
Ok I already did a backup.
What custom recovery are you running? The first thing would be to get the latest img for your custom recovery and install it.
How did you root and install a custom recovery on your phone?
I am running AOKP OTA Ver. 3.2
That time I did it following a step by step guide with someone who was guiding me.
Hmm what else would you like to know?
That's the OS. What program did you use to backup your rom?

You should update to the latest TWRP from here: http://teamw.in/project/twrp2/104
You can flash it using Odin. Make a full backup using the new TWRP. Find a rom you want to try, save it to the phone, and flash it using the ypdated TWRP. Don't forget to wipe the phone before changing ROMs.

Ok So I delete the older TWRP get the new one.
Then back and wipe which of all the options?
And of course if I was using AOKP which I really liked, what will your recommend me?
Installing the latest version of TWRP will overwrite the version on your phone.
Install the newest version of TWRP, create a backup of your rom using the new version of TWRP, find a rom you like, copy the ROM to your phone, boot into TWRP, wipe cache, dalvik, data, flash the ROM, reboot.

You can download it directly to your computer and use Windows Explorer to copy it to a microSD card or directly to your phone. It's probably quicker to download a few to your computer and transfer them all at once so you can try different ones.

Ok as I extract the rom to my external sd card of my phone it's asking me many permissions such as:
"Do you want to copy Cesium.ogg to your device?
Your device might not be able play or view this file."
I said yes to skip all of the next warnings because every time i hit yes comes another warning.
Also strangely the rom took forever to download and the extraction is also taking way to long.
I didn't had to go through so much stuff by that time I downloaded AOKP rom. :/
Still extracting as I update this post... Something is not right...
I will have to cancel this.
It's stuck.
Do not extract the files. Just flash the zip.

Mind if you help me here?
My device is an I747.
UPDATE:
I believe is this one?

UPDATE!!
Yup it's done.
Thank you very much for your patience.
Quick question.
How do I restore all my phone data such as my contacts numbers and messages from the back up I did with the other rom?
Do I just restore the last backup and it should recognize the new rom?
UPDATE!
So it went back to where it was of course.
How should I back it all up and restore in the new rom?
Looks right. I have an i747m, not the i747.

Boot into twrp and flash the .zip no wipes. Nothing changed except the kernel but you have to flash magisk again.

Just wipe your data, cache and Dalvik/ART partitions in TWRP and reboot, that's all. After that your phone will boot to welcome screen etc.
Also I believe there is "Factory reset" option selected as default when you open "wipe" menu and don't click "advanced wipe". It will do exatctly the same thing.
Hello XDA,
I tried editing the build.props file, and completely forgot I'm using magisk and therefore am running systemless...
Now my phone won't boot.
I can still get into TWRP, but I can not find the build.props file anywhere using the file manager.
Would anyone be able to share their build.props file and tell me where to put it? Pretty please?
That or I suppose a clean image I could flash... Because Right now, nothing will start...
It boots now by reflashing MIUI, see here:

You'll find stock MIUI for apollopro. Though, I don't know if your phone will boot.
If it doesn't boot, format data and wipe everything you can from TWRP(the custom acovery will be flashed back to the stock one, so flash TWRP again), then flash stock MIUI from TWRP.
