of course

i rooted my phone via odim, also on my sgs2, im quite familiar with odin

just check pda and flash really...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jpeg42:
When I get in that state, I try different USB ports, install-reinstall Samsung drivers, or just go use another computer. At times, especially on Windows 7, the phone and Odin don't want to talk to each other. Haven't found any rhyme or reason for it.

Edit: oh and make sure the phone is plugged in and drivers are fully loaded(assuming this is windows) before opening Odin. That might help too.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] SayWhat10:
well i figured it out

looks like the Avast security works great!!

I had the anti-theft option on (where it uses root to keep it on after factory resets n stuff).

It wont let me flash anything while its activated.

So simply turned it off and flash quickly and easily

+1 for Avast,should thrwart those that are inexperienced that find my lost or stolen phone...

Hello folks. I wonder if anyone can give me assistance. I just got my Galaxy Note today and unlocked it to T-Mobile. I am trying to follow the video to change the modem to get 4G to work. I have rooted the device and flashed the Beta 4 CWM to the phone but I cannot figure out how to get into recovery mode. I have tried every which way but the phone just contiues to reset normally. Is there a difference how to get into CWM on the Note vs when I had a Epic Touch 4G?

Alright so I followed the steps but I can't boot into cwm It just takes me to that Odin screen
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jpeg42:
By the Odin screen, do you mean the download mode screen with the yellow triangle? Are you sure you are pressing the key combination to get into Recovery mode? It is very similar to getting into download mode, but with the volume up key too.

For Recovery mode.

First fully turn off the device. Then press and hold the Volume up button and the Volume down button at the same time. Keep holding! Now press and hold the Power button until you feel the first vibrate. Let go of the Power Button right away, but keep holding the volume up and down buttons until you have reached the recovery mode.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Rocket42:
Yeah. Weird huh? It happened to me ONCE. It wasn't my first backup either. It happened to like my third one. All is well and working wonderfully though and hasn't happened since.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Romee74:
This is because of the time zone difference CWM uses. Look at the time of the backups the are several hours ahead. Not sure if it is using Greenwich mean time but that would be my guess I just never looked into it that much

I had/have the same problem at times. I kept version 3 around and reflash that when I have a problem with md5 restores. So far that has worked every time so I can do a restore. happens to me in one out of 5 restores. I really don't care what version I restore with, because I go back to version 4 for the large font. This is using CWM flash for the install of CWM, not using odin.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] one7dchevy:
In a brief search I read you can have spaces in the name of your backup. I need to try again when I get home..this might be my issue. I believe I had a space..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Rocket42:
What do you mean a space? Like if you make a back up and rename it and put in an extra space? Hmm. good to know . I just leave it as is at time of backup and i keep a list of what is what.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] UnicornKaz:
any time you run into a MD5 mismatched issue with restoring a NANDROID backup... it is due to having a space in the folder/file name of the backup ;)

check your backup... when you'd renamed it... most likely, there is a

"space"

in the name.

and "if" your backup have the file "android_secure.img" ... delete that file before you restored too !! ( I have multiple devices and each device's backup have different files variations...

Ran into this issue awhile back and I myself did some investigating/troubleshooting and I'd narrow it down to the cause ;)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] one7dchevy:

Odin, and CWM

I have the new ICS installed, and I try flashing the latest CWM on here using ODIN 1.85, and it acts like it worked, but when I reboot, it looks like the same old stock recovery. Pretty new to the Samsung phones, but don't you just hit down on the volume when rebooting, and then up? Anyway, no luck getting CWM on this. I want this rooted bad. :(

I checked PDA as instructed, and pointed it at the recovery-i717-CWM-b4_bf.tar.md5

Said it was done, and good, but no go unless I am trying to access it wrong.

Need Help Seriously?

I really could use some help here on a problem I having with CWM and after flashing DaGr8 ICS alpha 1 Rom. I came from stock rooted gingerbread with with CWM 5.5.0.4(Big Font) using roloracer method of flash and hadn't any issues at all.

I have been rooting and flashing different devices for about 3 years now and have never came across I problem like this before as stated below. I am not a noob, but also not an expert. Have tried to google this situation, but could not find a reasonable solution.

Now here is the problem I am having now, I went to flash the DaGr8 ICSalpha and use CWM beta 4 and wiped data-factory/cache/d cache 3x each and mount storage and wiped system/data/cache each 1 time. Then proceeded to flash the ICSalpha Rom and let it settle within 20 minutes. So I go to reboot in recovery using quickreboot app from the market and it reboots into CWM recovery and I get a message stating as follows:

e: can't open /cache/recovery/log

e: can't open /cache/recovery/log

e: can't open /cache/recovery/last_log

e: can't open /cache/recovery/last_log

Could someone please help me find a way to get rid of this message so that I can get everything working like it original was prior to this flash.

Braway or anyone if you could help me resolve this matter I would be greatly appreciated and I would give a donation to anyone who could help with this!

Braway I will give you donation anyway due to your hard on this Recovery. Look forward to using your touch recovery providing I can reolve this problem solved:confused:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] braway:
I will look into this,

its just that I won't flash ics yet, maybe on sunday...

my initial guess is, that the folder /cache/recovery does not exist.

You could try the following, and see if it fixes it:

adb shell mkdir /cache/recovery

either in android or recovery, then reboot to recovery, that might fixes it already :)

if the old cwm was causing the fc's, then people coming from that to this version should probably rid their system of the old one first by flashing dag's 3e recovery, doing a full wipe, then booting, then flashing the new cwm. hope this helps out.

If you are currently running saurom with da_g's recovery then do this. (*if you mess up don't try to pin it on me ;) )

1. Download CWM Beta 3

2. Flash it using Odin

3. When the flash finishes and the phone starts to reboot press and hold both up and down volume keys to go straight to CWM instead of saurom.

4. Make a backup! This is just in case something is different about your setup and something goes wrong you can go back.

5. Reboot

6. Enjoy CWM Beta 3 and SAUROM

If something goes wrong then follow this:

1. Boot into CWM recovery

2. Restore backup

3. power off phone

4. Boot into download (don't boot into saurom yet)

5. Flash da_g's recovery

6. Reboot

7. Use da_g's recovery with SAUROM and still have a decent setup

Help with advance install

Hey Braway, I've been doing some searching about using DD or ADB, but haven't had any luck.

This is what I did from searching a lot. I downloaded sdk, copied adb.exe and adbwinapi.dll to c:/adb folder. Copied the recovery.img to /sdcard on phone. Turned on USB Debugging on phone. Opened Command prompt on windows and went to my adb folder. I ran adb devices, and shows my device I guess.

Now, when I type in the command: adb shell dd if=/sdcard/recovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p22 i get: cannot open for write: permission denied.

Am I missing something, or doin something wrong? Is that a cero or letter O before p22 in the command.

I went to root explorer and checked r/w under sdcard. Tried again and got the same. I wonder if dd is an app or something that have to be ran directly from the phone. Any help would be appreciated it. Thanks in advance.

My question is why did this decide to appear now and not when I was on GB stock rooted. Normal I always flash a custom Rom built on the current software first. And all the other times in the past on my other devices, then upgrade to a new build when available and usually have no problems later on. Like I stated I never have been presented with this problem until now.

Will give your advise a try and see and hope it works. If not, maybe we work together to resolve this if we can?
