Odin Flashing Tutorial
Use this guide by
jaiconruedas to flash firmwares, kernels, modems, etc. the manual way.
[TUT]How to use ODIN [Galaxy S2 and Galaxy S3] - this works with most (if not all) Samsung devices.
Meron din alternative ang Odin sa pagflash ng firmware sa mga Samsung devices. Yung mga hindi gumagamit ng Windows magagamit ito. Safe ito kasi open source, tested and recommended ng developer community.

What is a Kernel?
Definition: according to http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=ROM-VS-Kernel
Common FAQ about kernels:
- Ano po ang Kernel? - read definition sa taas.
- Para saan po ba ang Kernel? - read definition sa taas. Basically, it's a link between the android OS and the phone's hardware.
- Anong Kernel ang i-install ko? - ang mga ROM ay may kasamang kernel para gumana ito. Mas mabuting basahin muna ang ROM installation guide at feedback ng ibang users ng napiling ROM kung meron man sila recommended na kernel na gagamitin. Otherwise, you can stick with what's included in the package. Pero kung alam mo na kung ano ang kelangan mong extra feature, saka ka mag-install ng custom kernel.
- Bakit ko kailangan mag-install ng custom kernel? - maraming extra features ang mga custom kernel na hindi mo magagawa sa stock kernel na kasama sa stock OS. Ang iba ay may mga tinatawag na governors, support for overclocking, undervolting, etc. Ang ibang kernel, kine-claim nila na mas optimized ang code na gamit nila para maging mas mabilis ang system mo.
- Ano ang kailangan para makapag-install ng Kernel? - Most kernel developers ng Samsung devices ay gumagawa ng 2 klaseng paraan para mai-flash ang kernel nila. 1st: Via Odin. Ang file name nila ay .TAR ang extension. See link above on how to flash using Odin. 2nd: Via custom recovery. Ang file name naman nila ay may .ZIP na extension. Ang pag-flash nito ay parang pag-flash lang ng custom ROM sa recovery mode.
- With Samsung phones, mas madaling mag-flash na lang ng custom Kernel (kung meron ng available) para mag-root. Not only will it root your phone, magkakaroon ka pa ng custom recovery (CWM, TWRP, Philz) all in one process.
- Pwede ka mag-install ng custom kernel kahit stock ROM lang ang gamit mo.
Mount External HDD/Storage

Sa madaling salita, gamitin mo itong app para mabasa ng android mo yung external HDD mo
Root Required
Paragon exFAT, NTFS & HFS+
Backup your EFS
Why we need EFS backup ?
EFS folder contains some important and basic information related to our device identity like Wi-Fi MAC address, Bluetooth MAC address and the very main IMEI number (nv_data.bin).
Now if this EFS partition accidentally gets corrupted, then your phone’s IMEI number will get erased and you can't make voice calls any further. This kind of damage is often not accepted by the service center of your respected handset’s company.
Your backup can only be your savior

tip: store your EFS backup on your cloud storage like Google Drive, Dropbox, Box, etc for easy access
How to Determine if your Samsung Device is Fake
Paandarin yung phone. Dapat lumabas sa boot up animation yung model ng Note II along with the Samsung logo... (see above for list of Note 2 models)
tapos type mo ito sa phone dialer:
*#0*#
Dapat lalabas dyan ang LCD test menu (screenshot below). kung wala...
peke.

Finally, connect the phone to a laptop with Samsung's Kies. Pag tinanggap ng Kies, orig yan. pag hindi... you do get the idea...

Enabling HD Voice Support
Hd Voice for GALAXY NOTE 2 N7100/N7105 by strangehero
Make all apps Available for Multi Window in Galaxy Note 2 (GT-N7100 Only)
Code:
[COLOR="Red"]Note[/COLOR]: I don't recommend this method anymore but you can rather use this app from the playstore
that does the same thing:
[URL="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.bjbinc.multiwindowmanager"]Samsung Multi Window Manager[/URL]
Nakakatuwa sana yung multi-window feature ng note 2 natin. problema lang, kokonti lang yung apps na supported ito. This guide will allow us to add all apps in our app drawer sa multi-window app list ng Note 2 natin.
Keep in mind lang na hindi lahat ng app gagana. Pwede nyo subukan kung alin gagana sa inyo and just give us some feedback. Required po na rooted ang phone nyo para magamit ang MOD na ito.
Step 1. Download ang 2 files na attached dito sa post ko.
XposedInstaller_2.1.3 at
XposedMultiWindow240
Step 2. Go to Settings -> Security and enable “Unknown Sources” on your Galaxy Note 2. (you can skip this step if you've already done this before)
Step 3. Gumamit ng file manager para mapuntahan yung mga files na na-download, tap it and install both files.
Step 4. Run yung Xposed Installer na app. Tap
Install/Update tapos reboot yung phone.
Step 5. After Reboot, run ulit yung Xposed Installer na app, Punta sa Modules na tab at lagyan ng check yung
xMulti Window Mod
http://www.cursed4eva.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/xMulti-Multi-Window-1024x576.png
Step 6. Balik ng Framework na tab, tap ulit yung Install/Update na button at Reboot.
Step 7. After the 2nd reboot, enable the multi-window bar by long-pressing the back key. Then, press edit...
makikita mo at nandun na halos lahat ng app mo sa app drawer.
subukan nyo na lang kung alin ang gagana at hindi
