Ya , even flashing Symbian or Meego is not so complicated . And the stupid thing is to install an app , u have to flash it in  rclxub.gif Even crapple is not so protective . Word is , Samsung is now bringing Tizen into their phone line starting this year to replace Android for most of it's devices .
*
Tizen is what Maemo was to become wasn't it? Some joint venture between Intel and Nokia originally, then I think the Linux Foundation has a hand in it.

Supposedly Open Sourced, but then Samsung will need to release Tizen "TOSP". We can only wonder if they will do it.

There's meltemi also...god knows what happened to that lol. I wish symbian just dies and get replaced by Tizen for those "smarter" phones that nokia makes laugh.gif
*
IINM, Tizen, Jolla, Meltemi are the descendants of Maemo.

I think it was first Moblin -> Maemo -> Meego -> offspring.

All because Nokia had too many kingdoms. If Maemo was done properly, I don't think Android would be where it is today, and crapple would have had a good fight on its hands. Sigh...

Ok, I just reinstalled back TA 2.60 and the status in the download mode remains Official but in the system status still stuck at Modified.

Maybe you need a reboot for TA2.60 to do its magic now?

Everything settled, download mode is Offcial and system status back to Normal. rclxm9.gif

I just flashed the new Thailand MA5 firmware with Mobile Odin to maintain root... thumbup.gif With this firmware the yellow tint on my screen is gone.. rclxms.gif

That's cool. Was it Normal after the MA5 flash? Or was it some mumbo-jumbo you did before that?

I never noticed any yellow tint cool2.gif smile.gif

sorry for bothering you guys again, my goodness, which thread should i go for on xda? original note 2 android development? or note 2 development? *faint
*
If you read the descriptions, and also look at the threads carefully, you will notice that Note2 Dev has all the custom roms based on stock.
Note 2 Original Android is, well, ORIGINAL stuff not based on stock, eg AOSP, AOKP, some fancy source built kernels etc.

Stay with stock for a while, current favourite here seems to be ROMOW. If you want the "pure Google experience" then try some AOSP based roms.

thank you so much, i was way too much concern of bootlop or soft bricks and even our fellow senior face the problem above which i'm clueless, it reminds me of when i soft bricked my AP set Tab 7.7, really scary  sweat.gif

Please read page 1 of this thread.

Then go and read dr ketan's thread in the Original section. He has a very good step by step description. Just follow that. The whole exercise of flashing is the mental preparation the first time. The act itself is only 5 minutes. Once you pass the first time, it's like nothing really.

Or you can use the GNote2 Toolkit v3, on screen prompting, very easy.

Hey guys, i got a very weird scenario here. Last week my note 2 reboot itself and stuck at the logo screen for no reason and cant even boot into recovery mode, plus the my screen will have white flash occasionally going on. So i send it fot warranty and they give me a one for one unit exchange, which means a totally new model. However, i just realise that at the storage space, it shows free storage 5.36GB only instead of 11GB something for a 16GB model. Any one has any idea for this weird scenario? Dont tell me they change the whole internal memory for me and tell me is a new phone=.= but i checked the IMEI and it is indeed a new phone.
*
Check if anyone left anything naughty in that 5Gb. You should have 10.36Gb. I'm sure they gave you a refurb from someone else. Or they may have been playing with it in the lab. Techies with toys.... whistling.gif

Since it's a new phone, just do a factory reset.

just did a factory reset, still shows the same. is there any way i can fix it myself? like flashing a new ROM or repartition it back to 16GB? or imy only solution is to send it back to the shop  mad.gif

Install storage analyzer and run it. It will show you the locations of large files. Install Ghost Commander or Solid Explorer or ES File Explorer and turn on the Show Hidden Files settings.

I'm sure somebody played with this unit. Did you get just the phone only or the whole sealed box when they swapped for you?

yeah.. went to XDA and again there are still many unfamiliar terms. i will find one day, sit down properly and digest everything first lol.

any suggestion which is the best ROM? i heard someone discussing about ROMOW previously.
*
Just use the GNote2 Toolkit. All in one solution for rooting and custom recovery. From there you can start on the path to flashoholism.

thinking of rooting and installing a new ROM to my NOTE2 but since i'm such a newbie and after following the thread for 2 versions daily, it seems like there are still MANY difficult terms i have yet to understand. so it's kind of scary..
*
Following daily for 2 versions. That's dedication to learning smile.gif

I did the same when I got my Note1 1 year ago and also read up xda and googled those terms as well.

Dr Ketan's posts on xda were instrumental in getting me started.

Oh btw you never got any letters from that fruit company yet ? brows.gif

I thought of that too, so just in case *choi if anything happens on my note2, can I just use this software to revert everything back to stock including it's recovery, rom or even bootloader to RMA? Imma just worried when they declined to RMA if my unit spoilts. I might just consider mod it's NatureUX to 3D UI by Coldfustion. lol

If I not mistaken, I did saw other seniors here mentioned other ROM as well besides ROMOW, such as Du@lNote, Omega and even ARHD 8.
*
Toolkit invokes PC Odin for some of its actions. So yes you can revert to stock but you need Triangle Away handy as well to clear counter BEFORE you flash to stock.

The last custom rom I tried was monx. I am forced to remain on stock mad.gif because I want to use my Allshare dongle. However I'm using the rooted and deodexed one, with Xposed framework so I can still run tweaks.

Haha and I thought why you'd use the term "winter list" just now. I thought that was a good metaphor for snow, white in winter.

I suggest you PM the TS, he rarely shows up.

These are what I did.

1. While on 4.1.2 DLL7 I reset back the counter by using TA 2.37.
2. Open up MOP and flashed MA5 with all the options checked including Wiping data, cache and dalvik cache.
3. After finished flashing and rebooted, straight away went to Google Play to download TA 2.60 and run it and checked on the The System Workaround fix.
4. Rebooted the phone.

Good.
