I noticed, even at 2000Mhz, the phone will still lag if you have limited your graphics card to 54MHz or 108Mhz

I never knew the UI used GPU to render rather than CPU

Jumped to AGNI kernel from Devil. Currently missing the register hook cry.gif
*
at 2.0Ghz you can fry egg on it already lol. I tried an asylum kernel before(forgot the name), it was very very hot but it's working very smooth lol.
Anyways, I upgraded to DN3 v3.2, Less bugs compared to v2. Anyways any good overclocking kernel to pair with it? If got dual boot feature better, since I want to try Android 4.4.2.

Things are getting hot even at 1.6GHz with no undervolt. I noticed Perseus is able to give me the most stable undervolt at 25mV increaments in Stweaks rather than 50mV in devil/AGNI

Did an endurance run earlier on:
on WiFi: 30% = 2 hours SOT
on 3G: 30% = 1 hours SOT

Conclusion: Devil Kernel is more battery efficient

Devil kernel can dual boot. I'm switching to that now.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

My question is: If I dual boot like this:

Primary ROM = TW 4.3
Secondary ROM = CM11

In this configuration, is it possible for me to flash CM11 on Secondary? Will it flash over the kernel causing me to lose dualboot?
*
Oh i see. With a custom leather flip case over it, I don't think you can feel any of the heat. But yeah the battery life.

Need a little bit more help here bros.
Since my dad's phone battery is running out very fast on stock kernel so i figured i should flash devil kernel recommended by a forumer.
But then now no matter what governer I choose, it will still be running at max speed. May i know how to let it automatically run at min speed when its not being used? Its draining really really fast and its going to hurt battery very soon
2)i created secondary system image for fun but didnt know how much space i need. I tried and nownit failed and took up my free space. May i know how tobremove it?

P/s: i wonder if the devil manager app helps.

Maybe later go change the sim card,but dun wan 4G card,so fast quota finished

lol 4G card doesn't means its faster all the time. Since N7100 only support HSPA+, it will only go up to 21Mbps.
To use LTE(4G) means you must have a LTE capabled device like N7105/ Note 3.

HELP!!!@@@

My phone suddenly keep restart, can only see it boot like 5s then restart and continue like that

any solution?

most prolly power button broken, my sister's s3 experienced that, not my dad's note 2.
The issue here is the button detect it is being "pressed" but actually its not. Take it to a phone shop i think cost around 100-150

Just go with it. Currently using Phoenix, so far so good after fixed several unaware issue.

Rom is sleek and responsive. Batt life, need not to say. 13hrs standby 3.5hrs SOT still can have 45%. And yet, running on stock kernel. Lel.

nope.sad.gif bye.gif custom rom until i take over my dad's phone. my dad want official rom back on his phone because DN3 v3.2 and devil kernel fakap his phone too much. Might consider phoenix rom later but not now.
Fakap condition: Battery cannot charge, SOT less than 2 hours. Turn on screen one percent drop.

Now i have just flashed the knox free ML6 modified xda firmware. Although the root is kinda fuk up, using dr.ketan's multi tool as suggested in post, it fixed it.
The problem now is the touchwiz icons very messy. Any idea how to automatically arrange itself?(perhaps by clearing cache?)
Also i was removing a crap load of bloatware and acciedentally removed accu weather widget. How can i reinstall it? Note 3 accuweather widget preffered but note 2 one is also fine for me

It's quite unfortunate for you who have eMMC corrupted.
My dad bought his Note 2 right after 2 months it came out. Has the crazy chip but nothing happened because I always update his phone!(I think the new updates fixed it)
My sister's second S3 also got the crazy chip but installed custom rom for it and nothing happened tongue.gif
Guess we are just lucky!

Speaking as if someone is having disease and it will spread anytime lol.

QUOTE(Eiraku @ Jan 21 2014, 05:52 PM)
I don't want to be the one to tide ill omens, but I have to concur with this. If there is the slightest bit of corruption already present before the software fixes could be applied, it's only a matter of time before it spreads.

After all, fixing a hardware issue with software patches is like patching a punctured tyre with band-aid. Plus the fixes are all kernel-level and usually don't extend to the Recovery/Bootloader portion so you're always at risk of further corruption EVERY time you flash a new ROM - though there WERE fix-included recoveries out there last I checked.

That said, for some (especially less 'intensive' users) the corruption might develop slowly enough that they won't even get ANY issues before they end up replacing the phone in a few years. It really is luck of the draw in the end.

There is a reason why Samsung China is repairing SDS damage even for out of warranty S3s and N2s pro bono, even until now. Unfortunately for us, SME doesn't care enough (or us consumers are simply not vocal enough) for them to do the same.
*
Yea most probably will upgrade the phone in 2 years or 1 year. But flashing roms will also cause corruption?
Then might revert to stock rom or what I guess.
My dad's note 2 is on the Knox free official rom so no worries for his phone. Won't flash any roms until I take over the phone. brows.gif

*Risk* of corruption. Not confirmed, but chances are higher as most custom recoveries do not come with the "fix" that is supposed to *mitigate* the eMMC corruption issue.

That said, my S3 did die of eMMC corruption in less then even a year lol. And it was running a *fixed* kernel the whole time, and I even updated to a *fixed* recovery a few months before it died.
*
Oh I see, btw I'm not going to update my dad's phone with any custom rom anytime soon. so it MIGHT die slowly
But I updated my sister's phone with Cyanogen Mod 11!! Hope it won't kill it, using TWRP btw, dk whether got the fix or not.

QUOTE(mydragoon @ Jan 23 2014, 08:14 AM)
errr... i thought volume up + home + power = recovery, which can be the stock recovery.

as for the discussion on SDS, i shared this earlier before... its a hardware issue and the right thing to do is to actually replace the faulty part. if that means the board, that should be done. it's no different than a car... if a car manufacturer sells a model with a part that can potentially break and case an accident, what they do is recall and fix/ replace the part. that's why we hear of mass recalls by toyota, etc...

but sadly... i guess for phones, its viewed as something that we change every 1-2 years (at least in USA or so where they get phones with new plans) and its not something that can cause death (like car accident), so, Samsung has preferred not to do the 'right' thing.

Anonymous34 puts is quite well when equating it to disease. sometimes we have these bad cells... whether they go rogue and start to become cancer or not, that's another thing. by having an insane chip, that means you do have 'bad cells'... just a matter of luck and time.
*
Yep, some cancer cells spread slowly. Some very fast until you cannot even detect it until it has developed into an advanced stage.

For those who considering N3 or Newer phones.
Please reconsider!
Here's how to make your phone gain a new life.
1)Root your phone, use CF- Auto Root. Also install TWRP recovery. (Google these with your firmware version) If your warranty isn't over yet and you're on Android 4.3. This may not be right for you. If you have Android 4.3 on your N3 but the warranty is already over, then go ahead and proceed since triggering Knox is nothing anymore
2) Flash either rom listed below
-OmniROM 4.4.2 (Link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2259479)
-CyannogenMod 11 (Link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2530116)
-Phoenix ROM 16.7 (Link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2060389)
-DN3 v3 (Link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2504016)
-Samsung Stock 4.3 Knox free (Link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2627419)(My dad personally use this with it underclocked to 1.2GHz and still runs very smooth! thumbup.gif [PS: Samsung Bloatwares mostly removed!])
3) Install a kernel called Devil Kernel (Link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2239453)
4) Install an app called Devil Kernel Manager
5) Overclock your phone to 1.8Ghz or 2.0Ghz (very heavy battery consuming)
6) Enjoy your Note 2! biggrin.gif
With these your phone can at least last for a year or maybe even more!
If you have any problem feel free to post here or PM me.
Also make an EFS backup before you guys do anything.

Seriously people, what do you run on your N2's so much that it's actually laggy? I mean I drive my N2 HARD and the most that I get are stutters from time to time.

To be fair, it's not exactly silky smooth either (especially with that terribad input lag we have) but I would never say it ever gets bad enough to be called "laggy".

That said, my old S3 WAS "laggy", which simply got worse the closer it got to SDS. OS corruption symptoms?
*
My sister's phone was laggy on S4 Revolution v13. SO that's corruption symptom also?
I reflashed it with CM11 and it was really fast.

Something to do with On/Off button?

I read it somewhere.

On off button issue is like it detect it is being held down where you keep seeing the "Samsung Galaxy Note II GT-N7100" screen when you boot up. If you keep holding down your power button now, you can stimulate the issue.

Can I get Samsung Malaysia to reflash my Note 2 back to 4.1.2? I m willing to pay as I really can't take the 4.3 battery life, more important I need the calendar and contact able to sync with my corporate Outlook email
*
I suppose you can flash it back yourself. Ask the bros here how to flash without triggering knox
if you're warranty is over I don't think there is any prob flashing yourself and triggering knox

Today went to Samsung service centre. Told them some of the apps not working and battery drain problem. They reflash 4.3 and everything is back to normal working conditions,  battery also last longer.

Btw they didn't charge me at all, phone is out warranty

There is no problem after update to 4.3 and was running fine for days until I did factory reset. In fact I did factory reset a few times before sending it to service center

Yea I think it's because of OTA updates. I flashed my dad's phone with 4.3 and underclocked it. The battery last a tad bit even longer than in 4.1.2! rclxm9.gif
And this also shows Apple is better in OTA updates brows.gif

Hi all, something very much related to devices in general (from the University of Texas):

An online course (looks like it's freely accessible) about embedded electronics, looks interesting
http://users.ece.utexas.edu/~valvano/Volume1/E-Book/

Chapter 2 explains what a computer is, and the various parts. I re-iterate that our devices ARE computers.
http://users.ece.utexas.edu/~valvano/Volum...talConcepts.htm

zoidbergfry this may be kindergarten stuff for you but hope you will find it interesting.

eiraku and anyone else who might want to tinker with hardware can take a look. I will biggrin.gif

Can I study this when I graduate from secondary school? I'm really interested in computer and electronic device. Believe it or not, I don't know how to turn on a computer when I was 7, now I build my own PC hehe
