These versions are for galaxy nexus.

No, they are not. You do get version 3.2.0 through the automatic update once you donate. Not sure why Mark decided to do it this way (I assume it was to motivate people to donate). However, this doesn't fix the issue as version 3.2.0 still does not allow you to root your phone after the latest update (MB2).

And I'd have to agree - it looks like the project is dead. We can't really blame Mark, because the toolkit is free and those of us who have donated have done exactly that: donated. We didn't buy anything and hence we cannot have any claims to ongoing support or recurrent future updates.

It is still a little disappointing of course and it does make one reconsider whether donating to a developer on XDA is the best option one has to get this software...
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] repulse:
is the CWM Recovery included in this version patched against Sudden Death Syndrom ?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] el_commandante:
No idea. I don't think it's mentioned anywhere - you should ask Mark. From my understanding of the problem however, SDS is caused by a faulty sMMC chip (my Note II is away for repair with this problem right now, although it looks like I'll have to send it in a second time, because they haven't exchanged any hardware this time, just reflashed the ROM :(). I don't see how you could fix it in software then... You could eventually mark the faulty bits in the memory I guess, but that's a pretty bad solution...

Re: [Galaxy Note2 TOOLKIT V3.0.0 GSM] Drivers, Backup, Root, CWM, EFS, Flash Stock Im

Hi, im new with samsung, had an atrix before for a long time.

I just rooted and installed teamwin with the all in one from the toolkit.

My questions are:

1. If i install an updated stock firmware with odin, root and custom recovery disappear or they remain?

2. If they disappear, i can re root and custom recovery again in the same way? For the new version?

3. Where can i find the changelog for the new firmware that is released?

Thanks.

The toolkit does not work on the newest stock ROM. There's a pre-rooted version of the latest stock ROM in the development forum which you can flash with odin the same way you flash the official stock ROM however. I've tried it, it works great. If you use triangle away before that you ever get to keep your flash counter at ;)
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] kamso:
Re: [Galaxy Note2 TOOLKIT V3.0.0 GSM] Drivers, Backup, Root, CWM, EFS, Flash Stock Im

Or you can flash your new stock firmware directly on your phone with Mobile Odin Pro. You will keep root.

Hi Everyone

Before i make a complete hash of this can someone give me some advice.

I was going to use this tool kit to root my phone, my build was JR003C N7100XX ALJ3 and this was shown in the tool kit, i have now turned on my phone ready to root and its just updated to 4.1.2 and now my build is JZ054K N7100XX DMB2

Does this now mean i cant use the tool kit now :confused:

Thanks

Pete
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] el_commandante:
Yup, you can't. As stated above, either use Mobile Odin Pro (haven't tested it myself, but everybody says it works) or flash a pre-rooted stock ROM.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] peter7769:
Thanks, thats gutting as this tool kit seemed to be the ideal thing :(
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] el_commandante:
Actually, I think both mobile odin pro and flashing the ROM are nicer, quicker and more convenient... I donated to the toolkit, because I thought Mike's work was worth it + it does have a lot of things in one place. However the other options are just as good and in some ways even better.

Happy rooting! :)
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] peter7769:
Thanks but doesn't the phone have to be rooted first to be able to use mobile odin?

[Galaxy Note II Android Development] horsage:
Many thanks. Sorry for so many questions but I'm starting with samsung. Had Motorola before.

1. Could you point out how can I know if the firmware i download is prerooted or the original from samsung?

2. Are there risks with the device when you update original firm and then reroot?

3. The triangle away has the paid version as the only version available?

4. Should I use triangle away only when i want to send device to samsung service or is it convenient to reset counter every rooting?

Many thanks again.

Regards

Many thanks for the data.

1. Odin pro for the phone has only the paid version? (I have no problem in buying but just want to know if there are also other choices)

2. If I have odin installed in the phone and the stock firmware in the sd card, i can always go back to stock without a PC?

Many thanks again

Regards
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] el_commandante:
I don't think there's any way of knowing once you have a downloaded file. Just pay attention to what you are downloading - it's usually documented well enough. Anybody correct me if I am wrong.

There's always a risk involved when you are messing around with your phone and doing things to it the manufacturer didn't intend you to do :) When you are using tried and true methods of rooting however, the risk is minuscule. From what I understand Odin is basically bulletproof so as long as you read the instructions VERY carefully and follow them EXACTLY you shouldn't have a problem. When in doubt, ask!

I'm only aware of a paid version. There may be a free one on the forum, but I encourage you to buy the paid one. These guys work hard to provide us with useful software and especially in the case of Triangle away it can easily save you a lot of money so why would you not pay (as long as you can, of course :))?

The counter being higher is nothing bad in itself - it's only important for when you sent it for service. I always reset mine however, because you could end up in a situation where it's impossible to reset it before you send it in. For example if the display fails and you cannot see what you are doing, the display failure could be a manufacturing defect covered by the warranty, but they would not replace it because you've tampered with the firmware.

Considering mobile odin, you'll have to wait for someone who has experience with it... Hope this helps! Happy rooting :)

Many thanks for your help. This is very useful information, because i was really up to date with motorola atrix, but changing to this device is like going back to the first fears (also because they are not cheap phones to replace), so now i can say that i'm starting to catch up.

Many thanks again.

Hi, there:

Well, just have the "Galaxy_Note2_Toolkit_v3.0.0" installed and my Galaxy GT-N7105 rooted either...

Then, I made a full nandroid backup through the kit and succeeded too...

But I cannot have that backup restored through the kit since I could not find the "backup/restore" option from the phone booted in recovery mode...

Could someone know what's going on my restoring process?

Thanks!

Re: [Galaxy Note2 TOOLKIT V3.0.0 GSM] Drivers, Backup, Root, CWM, EFS, Flash Stock Im

Reboot your computer and change usb port to plug your phone. After that I think flash will work. But I don't think you can root and flash CWM with this toolkit. It doesn't work with DMB2 build. Flash this directly in Odin PC and root and CWM will be done https://www.dropbox.com/s/mchkl45iahrnzep/cwm6-root-n7100.tar

To do that, boot your phone in download mod, plug it on your PC, start Odin PC, click on PDA and charge the cwm6-root-n7100.tar file, click on start, let it do the job and I think all will be fine.

Toolkit Doesn't Recognize Debug Mode On

I'm having a problem here. I've turned on debug mode but the toolkit freezes on "waiting for USB debug mode to be enabled". I've tried restarting the toolkit software, restarting the phone, turning debug mode off and back on, and so on. Do you have any other recommendations to get this going?

Background info: I've already rooted and installed CWM from your toolkit and installed PAC rom using CWM. Now I can't seem to do anything because installation of anything other than the PAC rom freezes and I can't seem to be able to flash any other recovery image. I'm trying to use the toolkit to install TWRP since I hear it's better than CWM for the Note 2 right now. I would really like to try some other ROMs but I feel like I'm stuck right now.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Lambetts:
Re: [Galaxy Note2 TOOLKIT V3.0.0 GSM] Drivers, Backup, Root, CWM, EFS, Flash Stock Im

Just a random one here, if anyone knows. If I have a unrooted stock device, and I want to keep the recovery from my carrier, what file do I need to pull so that I can put it back? I know you need to rename the stock recovery but where is that actually situated on the device? Which partition?

I've been flashing roms for a little bit on a Gnex and was wondering if I need to send a phone back if that file that I renamed is still there to recover?

Also if I do rename it back, if u go into stock recovery and I do a restore, is it going to have the files it needs to restore my original rom? I'm a little doubtful on that one actually. If it's not, what files do I need to use the stock recovery to get it back to original? If you even do it that way... Haha.

Thanks in advance. :)

[Galaxy Note II Android Development] porcino:
After rooting and installing a custom ROM, the baseband version and the boot screen will change. The network branded logo will disappear. The boot screen will say N7100, etc., as standard for a new device, then it will change to the loading screen of the ROM. I am not sure whether it is the rooting process or the ROM change the baseband version. It might be the rooting process...

If your phone is locked to some particular network, it will remain locked to it after everything. My phone doesn't have the relevant options in the service menu (accessed by dialling a special number), so I can't unlock the network. Does anyone know how to do it without paying to an on-line service? The service menu stays the same after rooting and changing to a custom ROM, which also changes the baseband. Where is it stored?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] porcino:
Network Unlock

Upon answering the above query I asked myself a question about where the network lock/unlock information is stored...

Apparently, everything is very simple with Samsungs. In the file /efs/nv_data.bin starting with address 0x181468 the following string of bytes is stored: FF 01 00 00 00. Just change 01 to 00 and the network lock is supposed to be gone... The other file /efs/nv_data.bin.md5 has to be removed - it is restored by the ROM, unless the ROM is broken... One, of course, needs to backup the modified/removed files (and the whole efs partition by using The Toolkit) and make sure their permissions/ownership are preserved (radio.radio or 1001.1001 and 700). The other sources quote permissions 755 in an older phone, but I see 700.

Warning: nv_data.bin.md5 file contains a check sum which is different from the output of md5sum utility. The ROM is supposed to rebuild this file correctly if it is missing or deleted.

Looks like this is the same as in the older phone, see
