Try to wipe cache.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] Lennyuk:
If you can use mobile odin to flash the fix then you don't need to flash the fix in the first place :P
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] dr.ketan:
This will also fix Triangle away, so you can reset it.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] Marchintosh:
Yes, but the pre-root rom was used just to avoid voiding the warranty.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] afilopou:
Nothing..they are back again :eek:

Tried the fix to check if it can fix the "power off or unknown recovery" ...and now one more problem :laugh:
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] Lennyuk:
Having root does void you warranty, all you have done is try to hide it from Samsung ever finding out.

Triangle away is for the same purpose, it hides the fact you ever had a binary counter higher than 0.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] EdgaBimbam:
after flashing cwm recovery latest i got faked recovery and it writes same as for you "power off or unknown recovery".... thats the first time i got fcked.... damn will never flash again anything without chainfire magic...

is it safe to flash stock firmware via pc odin? to make everything back to original state?
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] Marchintosh:
I know this, but on my blog I had done two guides for the root. The first invalidate the warranty and the second is not invalidated. Now both the void LoL.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] Lennyuk:
then just tell everyone to use Triangle away.... its not hard.

With the new CMW can i avoid the problem of cache without fix?
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] Beamen1:
Can this be fixed by wiping cache, or do we need to run this fix THEN wipe cache?

My cache is only 6MB or so right now.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] Chenglu:
Wipe cache can be solved,Do not need to flash this fix.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] radekklamzynski7:
Hi, I have done everything according to this procedure, just from the point of 1-7.

1.Open Odin and select PDA tab

2.Point to downloaded file cwm6-recovery-n7100-121011.tar

3.Now switch off device and reboot in download mode

(Vol down + Home +Power)

4.Connect device to PC and wait till device successfully added to com port (it will turn light blue)

5.Hit ‘Start’ to flash

6.After successful flashing reboot device to Recovery and flash Chainfire's SuperSU that you have copied to SD card

7.Reboot device and you will have superSU in application drawer.

Everything works as it should - Root and CWM

fix I was not needed

thanks dr.ketan

thanks Chenglu
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] Lennyuk:
The fix is not so you can flash CWM or root.... the fix was so you can use triangle away or mobile odin apps!
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] Chenglu:
Your method is the conventional method, it is correct.

good.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] radekklamzynski7:
I forgot to add, after resetting the counter - CWM and Root works perfectly :D
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] DMax99:
Hey chenglu, can you please check my cache please? I have clear the cache in cwm. Is it ok? Can I use triangle away now?
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] dr.ketan:
Yes you are fine. you can use TA
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] DMax99:
Thanks doc...will try now

---------- Post added at 11:37 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:27 PM ----------

Triangle away doesn't break the cwm anymore after cache is wiped...but the binary counter is still 1 in download mode...does that mean binary wipe didn't work?
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] dr.ketan:
This is new bootloader of Note2 which have auto sumchecker for recovery

Once you reboot to custom CWM, it will goes to 1.

If you want to keep it zero, you have to use stock recovery.

Here is guide how to keep device rooted with stock recovery

[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] DMax99:
So...even with the cache fix...there is really NO point to use triangle away if I want to keep using CWM.

Hi Chenglu & Dr

what do you think of my cache ? it's ok ?

Uploaded with ImageShack.us
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] Chenglu:
Yes you are fine
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] tchitchicruise:
THX!

compared to what you see that it is ok?

because the screenshot above, are different each time of mine!

I do not need the fix then?
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] Chenglu:
you don't need fix.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] tchitchicruise:
Ok, I think the full wipe fixed the problem then!

:)

Chenglu, just a question, did you screen recorder on your phone you?

[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] Chenglu:

[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] flogger:
Ok, my cache is broke.

But I'm also considering reflashing new full ROM.

Do you know if this will also repair it?

Can I reflash full rom with odin and after it make root with CF-Auto-Root ?

Is this possible or first I need to apply CF fix patch and only after this use odin to flash new ROM?

Thanks for the help.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] Chenglu:
Reflash new full ROM will be fix this error.

Reboot into recovery do wipe cache is the easy way.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] dr.ketan:
It is also good idea to start from scrach.

But anyway first reboot to recovery, wipe cache. This will fix cache issue

Then flash New ROM, Cf Auto root

reset counter with triangle

Done.

Edit : Chenglu beat me few second :)

Just one more thing, does the usual JIG for S1, S2 and S3 work on Note 2 or is it useless?
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] loney_frsu:

[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] dr.ketan:
Have you wipe cache before using Mobile Odin?

If still you have issues use pc Odin
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] Cruze712:
I would love to know too- They have told me that it has worked on note 1
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] loney_frsu:
ya i did 2-3 times but no success :(
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] dr.ketan:
Flash fix from op

And flash cf auto root.

Uninstall mobile odin then re install. Latest version 3.40
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] turilo:
for those interested, the usb jig does put the n7100 in download mode but does not reset counter unfortunately :/
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] ZenInsight:
My boot loader isn't working either. Rooted, triangles are fine...

tried chainfire3d plug in. Bricked.

Did you figure it out?
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] ladyboo:
i dont know if you guys know this but with the new odin 3.07 there is a option to erase nand, i than this allready 3 times and every times it worked perfect..

first get a stock rom ,

open up odin check erase nand

load your original stock rom.

flash rom to phone

after rom finish flashing go directly to clockwork recovery

do a factory reset there and clear cache

reboot phone..

your phone will now boot up fine...

you will see everything has put back to samsung default factory to reset the counter use triangle away..

dont forget after flashing the rom to go to recovery otherwise your phone wont boot up..
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] ZenInsight:
Yes. I think the issue is that we don't have a stock ROM in .tar form for the Note II yet. SO here is what I did.

I put TWRP on the boot loader and then installed a rooted Stock ROM ...OVER my normal ROM. Everything is fine now.

Thanks!!!

I'm having the same problem on a SPH-D710VMUB Galaxy SII, one-click's and the full desktop Odin errors out on cache. According to root explorer my cache is about 100 MB. It was working, but somewhere along the line this started-Triangle away works, but I even tried the GB28 stock update from Samsung's website, the" SimpleDownloaderTool for SPH-D710VMU"(looks like the one Samsung used for the Moment) and it blows up very early in the process, it doesn't say where. I can restore from a nandroid and get the phone to work, but I can't upgrade it past where the nandroid was done, 4.0.4, FJ12. I'm using the Kuban recovery. I tried this file, and it blew up when it was almost to the end. I have to use odin to flash the recovery .tar to get it to boot again, because it will be stuck in the "firmware update failed" after odin errors out until I do that. Always on cache, everything before goes ok. Have not attempted mobile odin, I at least got a working phone still, but stuck on ICS. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] garwynn:
Try odin with gb28 rooted restore tar along with pit and check repartition. Should get you going. But back up your stuff before doing this as it wipes data.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] gtaber:
Well, thanks, but no luck. I've tried everything I can think of, Used two different versions of Odin, 1.85 and 3.04. In Odin 1.85, when trying to flash ANY full.tar file it says "can't open specified file (Line 1876)". Doing the same thing with Odin 3.04, I get "can't open the specified file (Line 2564)". When I say ANY .tar full image, that also includes the file I dug out of the latest samsung GB28 update, "KIES_HOME_SPH-D710VMUB.GB28_D710VMULS1_1014481_REV00_user_low_ship.tar" downloaded from samsungs website. the files I tried are:

SPH-D710VMUB_GB28_1014481_Rooted_Restore.tar.MD5

SPH-D710VMUB_GB28_1014481_Rooted_Restore.tar.MD5

DLed from rwilco's site, also have DLed them a few times on different PC's to make sure there is no bad files, MD5's are always good. Tried the full Kies stock update and the other stock update samsung is offering, and they blow up early on too, even tried the Kies emergency restore with the special code you have to keep and enter, and it blows up. Of course after any flash failure it won't boot and always goes into the "I'm screwed screen" , then I boot into DL mode, and odin flash Kuban recovery, which goes ok, then I can boot. At first when trying to reflash to stock with Kies, Kies complained about my modem version being FL26 and my Build number being FJ12, but I flashed the FJ12 modem from recovery and Kies went as far as Odin would go. One thing I am not doing is using a pit file, because I don't have one or really know what it is. At one point Odin said " NAND write start" right before blowing up, on one of the full images. I can always flash a recovery kernel, so I can restore a nandroid. All this started when I flashed cyanogenmod 10.1 from this place:

http://androidforums.com/galaxy-s2-...2-2-jdq39-03-06-2013-cm10-1-sph-d710vmub.html,

and it would never boot after I flashed cyan 10.1 from recovery and had to restore a nandroid. I don't want to be stuck on ICS until I buy a new phone next year, but right now it looks like I don't have a choice. I would like to try to flash the stock recovery, so the OTA to FL26 will work, and maybe clear this crap up, so I can at least get stock JB on it and regroup to root it again-the OTA won't go when it tries to reboot to recovery and the recovery it expects isn't there, but I haven't been able to find a stock recovery image for this phone.

Sorry for the long ass post. I have rooted many different Androids, tablets and phones, didn't think I was still a noob, but this one is kicking my ass.

n7100 error while cache.img file in ODIN

hi, i have this one and i dont know what to do... i've already tried the "recovery-cache-fix" but stills the same... always fail while writting this file... with any rom or recovery.. any one can help please?? only pit file can be flashed
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] Scolaro:
I had the same problem. After using Mobile Odin a couple of times it suddenly wouldn't restart after flashing anymore, and on top of that recovery mode was broken. I can't use regular Odin from home (phone is recognized, but flash always fails), so when I stumbled over this thread I couldn't even flash the fix.

In the end this is what I did:

- go to Google Play and download ROM Manager.

- start the app and press "Flash ClockworkMod Recovery".

- install the free Recovery, then press "Reboot into Recovery" on the app's main screen.

- if you're as lucky as I was (still can't believe this worked, tbh), the phone will boot into CWM Recovery and you'll be able to wipe and factory-reset to your heart's desire.

Good luck and thanks to the wonderful Chainfire for the explanation of this issue and the fix (even though I couldn't try it myself this time). :good:

this cache fix can help me with my problem?

this is what i posted in other threads about my problem

hey guys, my problem is that my recovery freezes after 10 or 15 seconds. it was all good until 3 month ago when randomly start to freeze. now it doesn't matter which recovery im using (i tried all of them) it freezes. sometimes i reboot to recovery and it works fine and i can flash a rom or whatever i want to do, but most of the times it freezes.

i tried wiping everything several times, including internal storage and even external storage.

at the moment every time that i want to try a new rom i need to spend about 30 min rebooting over and over again until i can flash the rom. if is an action that last less than 10 or 15 seconds is all good, like flashing another recovery or just wiping cache, but long actions like flashing gaps or rom it doesn't work cause it takes more than that.

im not an expert on android but the only thing that i can think on is that even wiping everything there is still a file or something that is f@(#ing with the recovery, but i don't know maybe my phone is f^(#ed.

please help, i don't want to get another phone, i love this one.

by the way, is a note 2 GN7100 international.

Yesterday, I tried philz_touch vs. 00.9 I think and everything is working fine, no freezes at all. Absolutely perfect, the only problem is that It cant install roms 4.3 or 4.4. I mean install them but with problems.

Please somebody help me.

Did you order the LTE version and what colour? Also, what deal did you manage to get from them?

I was under the impression that they'll be released on the 15th of this month :confused:
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] t3rm3y:
I got a deal of £31 per mth, £40 for handset, 300 mins x network, unlimited calls to t-mob, 1.5gb download, 3gb bt openzone wifi. 24 mths.

prob not best deal, easpecially on mins and txts, but to be honest i dont use much, i just want the latest phones. :)

I would imagine (hope) that t-mob would only sell the LTE version as they are the ones pioneering 4G? will keep an eye out though, if can get a better deal will do so.. (limited to networks i can use as 02 doesnt work where i live and am waiting on a three sim to try there network.)

I have 2 lines one of which is always with unltd calls so something like this would suit me just fine for the 2nd line. As i said i was under the impression that they'll be releasing this phone on the 15th...I just had another look on their website and the deal you got isn't mentioned BUT the only version they have IS the LTE one. So if or when you do get it, update us please? I think a lot of people like me are holding off on this phone waiting for the LTE 4G ready version.
