porting note 3 to note 2

can this be done using the a flashable note 3 rom ?
http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23159073880932541

Well i am not developer
But.i really wonder that what happens if note 3 rom flashed to note 2..
The leaked rom of 4.3 of note 2 has old kernel. So note applications are falling when its ported.probably because of old kernel.
But my question is what happens if note 3 rome is directly flashed to note 2..

I'm also not a dev. And I wondered that too. Then I thought... if that was even possible someone would have already done it by now, right? Still, maybe we all wait for someone to try it... So, feeling courageous? Go ahead and let us know if that worked. But don't blame me if u get ur device bricked or something.

Obviously you can't flash the note3 rom to note2 without modifying it. If it would even flash, your device would get bricked by the note3 kernel.
In the end, this is a question/answer thread. Please someone move it to the proper section or close it. No development going on here.

Ok, I actually have been trying to port a N3 ROM over to N2 with no success. I have very limited time, a crashed hard disk and no Internet at home. If anyone is interested, I can upload (in maybe a few days - no net at home ) a half-baked port that just about gives the N3 boot sound and gets stuck at the Samsung text boot animation. I haven't gotten a logcat from it too, so its more like shooting in the dark.
Even if you are not interested in my half-baked port and want to start afresh, note that the /system partition's size in the N3 is pretty different. You'll either have to try a .PIT that gives you ~3GB to the /system or go my way of chopping down on the /system's contents to fit it to N2's default partitions...

I tried flashing ROMs based on the leak, and my Note 2 gets as far as the boot screen, where it starts to vibrate in a Morse code type pattern. I'm thinking combining one of the ROMs with a different kernel will get something started...

After you get stuck in the repeated vibrating pattern, reboot to recovery and head to /data/logs - pull the latest tar log (by UTC time) and go through the txt it contains - you will have the kernel log, logcat and all that you need to debug.
My mistake was I downloaded an incomplete dump that is missing part of the framework. Will try again with a different base when I get the time.

Awesome! So even after a battery pull, this information will still show on the log? A battery pull is my only way out after this happens. I'll give it a try!

I need to add that I'm using a T-Mobile Note 2 (SGH-T889).

I do think that it's nearly impossinle, dur to the difference in resolution and width between N2 and N3 even if it boots up it will look distorded, and also is the N2 missing sensors that the N3 has..
some of the apk's are working on the leaked 4.3 firmware, i think u should help in getting the air command working properly, it's working but no icons, the thread is over in the apps section

That is not a problem. We have seen ports from different resolutions in the past. We may have to change the resolution of png files in the drawables for some apk.
That said - and this is for all members - THIS IS A DEV DISCUSSION. UNLESS YOU ARE ATTEMPTING TO PORT THE ROM OR DO SOME DEV STUFF, PLEASE DO NOT POST HERE. USE THE GENERAL FORM INSTEAD. Hope you understand the importance of keeping a dev thread uncluttered.
@sabrdawg - yes, you pull the logs after battery pull (or holding down power-vol up-home to reboot into recovery. And I am using the N7100 leaked 4.3 as a base and N9005 stock to port. I am not sure if the T889 will work with the N7100's firmware - if it does not and if you cannot get the 4.3 leak to work on your phone you should hold back (unless you first port the N7100's leak to your device).
My porting attempts or on hold. The base ROM I picked (n a whole bunch of them I checked) are having problems with missing files in the framework. I have used up my monthly internet quota in my 3G and also the add-on pack's quota (and do not have internet at home ). Whoever is attempting a port, please download a full ROM from sammobile(say, SM-N9005 - UK or Singapore for example) extract it and deodex it to use as a base for porting to our device (Read up this link under "CONVERSION OF STOCK TAR.MD5 LEAK TO CWM FLASHABLE FOR NEW AND UPCOMING DEVELOPERS" (towards the bottom 3/4th of the page) if you are not sure how to go about it. Finally here is a good guide about porting.
Note that it would be helpful if you have some experience in porting, debugging using logcat and other logs. In any case, if you are not at least knee deep into Linux, Android and generally some technical affinity, you should not be attempting this. All the best. I will give it a shot if I can whenever I get some internet connection I can use to download the ~1.5GB stock ROM.

Maybe you can use a custom rom based on the leak for note 2...and a custom rom based on the official android 4.3 for note 3 and try this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1957219
I dont have the note 2...or the note 3 to try this. But Im thinking maybe you can use wannamlite based on the leak fot note 2 and a wannamlite for note 3 (I really dont know if there is one).
Im not a dev but I use this metod to port some roms for my atrix and works ok.

So, in other words, one could take any 4.3 ROM out there for the T-Mobile Note 2, and any ROM based on the Samsung leak and do this?

I dont know....I made this for my atrix using cm7 roms and works ok...maybe this can be done in this case...I use some cm7 rom from the Motorola Photon (similar to the atrix but bigger screen) and a cm7 rom for the atrix....everything works ok.
Maybe someone can try that...I dont have the note 2...so...I cant do it

FAQ
Q: I just installed and I think my device is frozen.
A: The flash takes a long time and the progress bar does not move (my fault, sorry) but it is installing. Also, the first boot takes a long time as well. Just install it and let it do it's thing.
Q: What happened to everything on my sdcard!?!?!
A: When you flash this it will appear as if you've lost everything on your sdcard. You haven't, it just created a new folder '0' so you'll need to move all of your files/folders from /data/media/* to /data/media/0/*
Q: I can't find the Developer options.
A: Settings>More>About device>Tap 'Build number' a couple times
Q:Will this work on my I747m device?
A: Yes and no. If you want data/service then it does not work. Will have to wait for updated bootloaders/modem for your device.

flash 4.3 on i747m
basically copy your existing system/bin and system/LIB *ALL modem related.RIL files and your current 4.1.2 modem..
ill do it ones i get home will create a flashable file for the latest baseband and ril files
basically i have been testing even ICS basebands on jelly bean without any big deal.. so lets all cross fingers:good:
ILL TAKE ONE FOR THE i747M TEAM no worries!!

Is the bootloader/modem for I747 AT&T only? haha j/k
Loserskater, thanks so much for making this noob flashable so quick. I just imagine you having a big red phone on your desk start ringing when MJ2 was leaked :laugh:

T-Mobile
Do you think a foolish T999 user could flash this and get away with? I'm extremely tempted to do it right about now.

Think you can flash the ROM, just don't dare to flash the bootloader/firmware. :laugh:
At max you can always flash back to T999 ROM

Flashed the rooted version and it is running great! I knew we were due for a leak. Supposedly the 4.3 update makes the S3 compatible with Galaxy Gear, so I was figuring Samsung would want to get the updates out well in advance of the holiday season to encourage more people to buy the Gear. :good:

Fermartz, Will that get the i747m users be able use data?

Quick question before I plunge. If I flash the modem/bootloader then rom and decide I want to wait for custom, will I still be able to return to my backup of my 4.1.2 with this modem/bootloader?

Not that benchmarks really matter, but holy 3D improvements, Batman.

Is bootloader/modem update necessary? Can we just flash rom only?

Thanks for the update leak for 4.3 loserSkater, all is appreciated
just one question is this the final stable build or the 1st leak among other leaks to come thanks
I need to know so that I can upgrade now or wait until bugs have been removed and butter smoothed for the end user
Again thanks for the leak yu guys do a great job for XDA/ANDROID

Nice work loser!
We have been dealing with Knox and SELinux on the S4 for a while. Let me tell you it's a huge PITA.
Some people really like Knox. Those that do have to be very careful since almost anything you do will trip the Knox warranty and you will no longer be able to use it. Rooting, custom recoveries, and all the fun stuff we like to do trip the Knox warranty. There are some workarounds that may also work for the S3. You can find lots of info on Knox in the international S4 forum since they have been dealing with it the longest.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=2163
Personally, I don't like or use Knox. I nuke it from every ROM I build. I disable SELinux as well.
I also noticed that you got the ugly tabbed Settings menu like the S4. You should be able change a bool in SecSettings to change it. Or, enable both tabbed and list to give users the option.
So I haven't noticed anything about the bootloader being locked. Is that correct?

Any Custom Roms For the GT T325 in the Near Future?

Hey, i just purchased the Galaxy Tab Pro T325, after looking into Flashing Custom Rom i came to find out there isn't any out, needles to say this is a GREAT device and would have thought to see several cooked up by know, what would be Awesome in my opinion would be a Custom Rom made from the Source of the Latest Galaxy S5, if its possible, that would be hot. i have the note 3 Running a Custom Rom From HyperDrive (Big Up to Them, Best Rom so far for the Note 3), its based off the S5 and its OFF the HOOK. Just a thought, will be here Patiently waiting, cause i love this device..!!!!!

from t311 to t325
I asked me the same. I changed from the Tab3 8.0 lte to the t325 and the only customs i found are for the wifi version.
The T325 is really the outstandinged Tab out there.
I had from nexus7, nexus7 2013, Acer, note8 every tab that reads good at the specs.
But this great tab is perfect.
I rooted it and and changed all things that are possible with xposed. Thats a good deal at the moment.
Not everybody would pay this price for a tablet.

I have a very basic rom I was working on until I broke my screen that u guys can try...nothing but the knox apps have been removed so anything else u don't want will need to be deleted directly from the zip or uninstalled after flash (I'm sure u can find a list of whats safe to remove somewhere on the site). This package has been deodexed & zipaligned but that's about it...u will probably need to download "supersu" & which will ask u to update the"su" binary (just select "normal" method when prompted) after u flash. As an added bonus...4 way multiwindow also known as quad view from the note pro 12.2 has been enabled, along with lockscreen shortcuts as well as multiuser & I also added the assistive widget flashlight back but it only shows up in the widget drawer NOT in the homescreen add widget list for some reason. Also...i have included a fix for using the screen mirroring function (please thank @esgie) with a custom kernel/recovery & enabled the art runtime in the developer options (although this has NOT been tested yet & does NOT work with xposed or deodexed roms which basically deafeats the purpose)
I AM NOT RESPOSIBLE FOR DAMAGE TO YOUR DEVICE OR DELETION OF DATA...BE SURE TO BACKUP BEFORE U BEGIN!

Hey T.D. UNO
I just received your message with your Custom Rom included for our Lovely T325, Im so excited to get this Rom Fired up on my device, Im downloading it as I write this Response, Will definitely Let you know how everything goes once I run it for a Few, Thanks again my Friend, your THE MAN..!!! I have my fingers crossed that this one boots up, I want a Custom Rom So bad that i tried flashing the Wifi only Versions on the 8.4 section hoping it would have boot, the worse i expected was not having 4g/LTE, however it FAILED, didnt even Boot... lol. :cyclops:

Ok, All's well.
Just finished flashing and it booted up, all is well thus Far, Seems to be running smoothly, i will Mess with it for a couple of Days to see how it goes, is there anything i should know or do..? What would be cool is if we can some how flash the transparent weather clock thats on the Note 3, would that be possible..? If theres anything else you need tested Im here, and i was wondering what is that other file you posted in your message, it stated something about Kernel "boot (1).img"..? And ilso was wondering how your device is coming along, i think i read that you Found the lCD & Digitizer you need , did you finally find it, if so how much did it set you back..? ok, thanks again I'll definitely keep in touch, if we can Hook this device to the MAX that'll be AWSOME. )))

[APP][SNAPSHOT]Dual-Boot Patcher - Even On /Data!

REMEMBER THIS IS A SNAPSHOT BUILD, THAT MEANS THE APK IS BUILT AS SOON AS CHANGES ARE PUSHED FROM THE MASTER HIMSELF @chenxiaolong
I'm proud to present the first dual boot project for the Qualcomm-based Samsung Galaxy S4! This project started off as a feature in my ROM, but not anymore. This will allow any two ROMs (soon, three) to be installed at the same time. It works by patching the secondary ROM's installation scripts and boot image to load the ROM files from an alternate location (/system/dual, /cache/dual, and /data/dual). Because of the way this is implemented, no changes to the primary ROM are necessary

By @chenxiaolong
Tested Personally myself @ktetreault14 with the G920T Xtresolite 5.0.2 ROM (found here) as my primary rom. I then used @eousphoros 5.1.1 Debloated V2 ROM (found here) as my secondary. I even have a Sprint OE2 rom I was testing in a third slot. You might wonder how this is possible. All thanks to chenxiaolong's brilliant multibooting system. He has now added in the ability to install roms straight from your /data partition All without touching your primary rom. You could be stock rooted and have no problems as long as it isn't aroma. (In which case I think you could alwasys use flashfire) The S6 Edge didnt have a very large /system partition (only 4.05 gb ) and /cache was nothing to brag about either (for those inquiring minds it is 304.7mb) So naturally I asked the amazing quick chen if there was any way I could Install it to my ~25gb /data partition, within days he whipped something up... But enough with the story get on with the tutorial and show me the downloads... Ok Fine.. Here. We. Go!!!!!!!!!!!! :fingers-crossed:
TUTORIAL AND PICS AND VIDEOS
I'm Assuming you have the apk downloaded and installed. Also you have the rom and, if you need it, the kernel already downloaded on placed on your phone's memory.
Step 1| Open the apk, Swipe right from left edge, Patch Zip File.
Step 2| That is obvioulsy not your phone so lets change that. Click jflte and select zerolte in the dropdown. (BTW all those other phones are supported too.)
Step 3| Change where you would like it to install too. (Most likely going to be /data unless the roms are heavily debloated or AOSP) For the purposes of this tutorial it is going to /data
Step 4| Name your ROM. Pick Your ROM.
Step 5| Ignore The Information Here, Scroll down, Tap to begin patching. Do as many times as you would like
Step 6| Open hamburger menu, ROMs, click the FAB (Floating Action Button), click +, pick patched rom.
Step 7| Keep Installation Location or change if you are not sure. Do as with many zips you would like to install.
Step 8| Click checkmark in top left corner.
Step 9| Reboot and you will boot up into new rom
IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO SWITCH ROMS
Step 1. Open App
Step 2. Click ROMs
Step 3. Click Rom you want to boot to
Step 4. Reboot

If I'm running the eousphoros 5.1.1 Debloated V2 ROM as my primary, I would need to start over, correct? (since this ROM doesn't have root and has stock recovery)

Nope. You only need root for the app if you want to flash in-app. Just patch rom and install from recovery

This is posted in the tmobile s6 edge forum but you only mention using this with the s4. Is this actually usable on the s6 edge? I checked the threads of chenxiaolong from post #1 but I only saw reference to the s4 in his threads as well.

Always had Sickness roms as my primary and with all his versions i had no issues with duel boot but now in his latest v9 built i am unable to duel boot. When i reboot secondary rom it stays at samsung boot logo, it does not go into recovery. When i flash the utility zip to switch to primary rom it boot loops and goes to recovery and none of the roms boots..so i reflashed sick as hell v7 and its duel booting good. The rom developer told me he have no change anything from v7 to v9 he just added some tweaks and xtra apps, don't understand why is not duel booting with latest rom. I did flashed the log file. I will attach it.

Which Roms can be installed with QI15 firmware

I have purchased yet another note 4 for the grandson. His firmware is QI15. Original plan was for me to use it, but since my Pixel 3a XL is still yet a lease I might as well use it. Plus it is a lot faster anyway.. His mother does not have the money to buy one for him, so I figured what the hell, he can have it.Which roms can he use.. I no longer have mine, but will root this if it is still possible.. From reading you can't downgrade from MM to LL. But can you downgrade to a earlier version of MM? Thanks.

inYes, that is correct but also cant downgrade the bootloader/modem. That is because of fused 5, binary 4. and te old official stock 5DQ15 .tar md5 can be fashed via Odin. Any other stock firmware below that has a fused 4 and flashing will result in a bricked device.
If your already on 5DQ15 and wish to flash customer roms then use TWRP and make a back up of all partitions to external sd. The any custom rom for Sprint Note 4 (sm-n910p) on Marshmallow are/should compatible. Basically, follow the instructions provided by the rom developer but do not flash a different bootloader or modem. Other than that follow all other institution. For best results, start in setting , sustem update and turm of automatic updates then update PRL and Profile beforehand. Developer Option and usb debugging enabled.
Rooting the Sprint Note 4 on 5DQ15 still possible? Yes 100% SuperSu or Magisk are the preferred root methods.

Also recommend you start with a stock deodexed rom as a base before flashing other custom roms. Rom only

or
https://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4-sprint/development/rom-t3568075
then reboot and give it time to properly set up set up. Check if hotspot is visible setting and check your apn settings. If all looks good and it should the return to TWRP and once again make a back up and rename (2019-10-05-deodexStockNoroot.....) so not to be mistaken with any other backups. After that flash root .zip and/or a custum rom of you choice.
I use the BeastMod r61 kernel by Freeza on a N4 Dtux V9 Legend rom. Fixed issues with network connection.

you know what sucks, my last note 4 for Sprint hell I was able to downgrade from marshmallow to lollipop. But since this is for the grandson I guess it really doesn't matter I'll put something on there good for him and leave it at that

I 100% agree that not being able to downgrade sucks big time. I hear all the hipe about new Android OS updates but there are advantages of older versions. In 2018, I searched for a replacement with a lower bootloader but simply couldn't find one. Knowing that peope were bricking there device and Odin fails I decided to get one in fair condition. Being the type to mod and flash yet unsure of what ir how to do that as custom roms are specific to bootloader and modem. I figured, I'll practice with a cheap on incase I hard brick. At the time there didnt seem to be specific information on what rom worked with 5DQ15. I started out with Stockist Plus tidbits Q15. My old Note 4 was on [MOAR v2.1] [ULTIMATE Note5 Hybrid] on lollipop 5.1.1. and had lost of customizations prebuild. So going from the Mother Of All Roms (MOAR) on lollipop to Stockish Q15 on marshmallow, just sucked. It didnt take long before I started taking calculated risks with flashing and porting, even from other models and variations. Stepping out side the box but within boundaries. For instance, the n910f is an international version but much of its software is compatible with the n910p. For instance, this one works on n910p with most stockish roms on Sprint Note 4. With Custum roms it may conflict depending on the setting. If stockish rom or custom rom come with a "rom control"app (interface) and .zip in the link bellow come with "rom control" app thin it is not compatible. One cool feature is it adds "multiple user" in setting.

These n910f worked for me and has the advantage of separate .zips moding specific parts but warn that one of these .zip in the link , I believe its the "settings theme" .zip when flashed removes "hotspot" from the settings. Just 6.0mm zips are compatible on dq15 n010p.

The GRX is one of my favorites for stockish roms. It can be compatible with custom roms but its a complicated process. Im guessing it should work with the N7 hybrid rom. Its relatively easy and offers nice smooth customizations. Its a good idea to chech the setting of both settem and "setting GRX" as to avoid conflict. If you find it on XDA even better. For me, I find it to be the best thing on 6.0mm.

And the PK1 hotspot mod will work as long as the hotspot is in the main settings.

Good luck to you and your grandson rooting and moding.

If you install Busybox with the N7 hybrid kernel I offer a suggestion.

Busybox by Stephen (Stericson)

I never installed the Dr. Ketan rom but I did look at the Touchwiz launcher provided in the .zip and it is a MM. Dont know why you got FC's . Most likely its our latest firmware that to blame.

Wish I could remember what it was I flashed to get that in my settings as I think I remember you wanted that feature.
