Hi!

After some trouble I rooted my Note2. I hope everything is fine with my 20 hour old note2. I rooted it with Chenglu CWM Recovery and there was this cache problem, but I think now after cleaning the cache everything is fine. EFS backup was done without any problems (size 20,0 MB?)

I installed the Chainfire "Rom Manager" via the google store.

My phone was rooted and if I choose anything in the app like "install CWM Recovery" it supports only three phones, I think the S3, Note1.. I don't know.

Is there anyway to get a CWM Recovery "app" as I knew it from the S3 or the S2 running on the N7100?

The old google store app isn't what I was looking for :rolleyes:

ChainFire you are hell of a SM freak (smartphone master) - is there a way to install a .apk of a Rom Manager that supports the Chenglu CWM Recovery, or if there is one that supports "your" I7100 root method, can I flash your rooting file over Chenglus root?

English isnt my native language, but I hope you understood what I mean, Thanks EVERYONE for the great work and the nice support!

People here in this forum are very helpul - very cool!

Is there a way of going back to stock and reset flash counter to zero on the N7105 ? Just in case of needing warranty repairs etc..
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] Ajsk:
You need to be rooted to do this, you can use trriangle away, if when you open it, it will tell you device not supported and close straight away, you have to go to root explorer (it`s a root review/editing software), then choose system folder, open in editing mode build.prop, and change line ro.product.model=GT-N7105 to ro.product.model=GT-N7100, save and reboot. Go to trriangle away, drop counter to 0, after dropping it, your phone will reboot, change the ro.product.model back to you original state ro.product.model=GT-N7105, safe, and reboot going in to download mode straight away, now you can flash your stock rom back.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] nm8:
thanks, do you know where to download stock N7105 rom please... can't find on googal..

http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/?page=3&model=GT-N7105&pcode=0&os=1&type=1#firmware , but remember that any roms that you download from net, and not Samsung Kies, have no garanty, the are all ripped from somewere like Kies for example, and SamMobile do not take any responsibilty if you brick or damage your phone using files that can be found on this site. It's all on your own risk.

Same here. After rooting the Battery seems to drain bit faster. "Andoid OS" (37%) is always on top while before it was "Screen" (31%) i'll let it run a while and see if it normalizes after some time.

And guys, not to have any misunderstanding, nv_data.bin has your imei info, and you should not give it to anyone!

Rooting

The problem with rooting is that OTA Auto Updates don't work anymore.

Sigh!
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] buddn07:
Keep up the good work!

I'd just like to say thanks to Chainfire for all your great work!

I've rooted my N7100 using your Auto-Root, bought the paid for version of SuperSU. Bought Triangle-Away, and reset my flash counter. Bought Mobile-Odin and flashed the latest LJ3 update as the OTA wasn't working.

All of the above was extremely well documented, and simple to do.

I've also sent you a small donation in addition to purchasing your apps as an additional thank you. You've made life very simple for the majority of Samsung users! I hope that you support devices that I buy in future!

(And no I wasn't paid to write this by Chainfire (: )
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] octa_amide:
Hi Chainfire,

just to update. The CF-Auto_root is not working correctly for my note 2.

SuperSU is there but gives the "There is no SU binary installed, and SuperSU cannot install it. This is a problem" message.

Additional information as below.

Baseband version = SC02EOMALJF

My phone is from NTT Docomo Japan.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] Ottschke:
Who knows ;o) Just kidding! I almost used every little proggy CF wrote. And I must admit I liked most of them. I profit as many more do!

I'm also not paid, I also use paid versions to say thank you, and if I get my note 2 I'll try your work again and so on and so forth.

Please can you devs from xda tell in advance to which device you move, as soon as you know. Then we don't have to search for you guys! Lol

Have fun.

[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] pakalrtb:
Hi Chainfire, I have my GN2 rooted with CF-Autoroot and I also bought (long time ago , for other devices ) your mobile odin pro. It's my understanding that you are moving away from the use of Custom Recovery and pushing MO as a safe method of flashing stuff into a device. And I want to follow your path. But do you really thing that MO is ready to replace the use of any custom recovery ? What if your device goes into a bootloop after flashing a ROM, a Kernel or anything else? How do you get out of this situation if all you have is a stock recovery that will not allow you to flash anything but a stock file ?

What about an "emergency" Recovery for your CF-Autoroot , or something that will allow to rescue the device from a problem?

P_
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] Chainfire:
I have updated all the CF-Auto-Root downloads. The scripts have been slightly improved, the roboto font is now used, and SuperSU has been updated to v0.98 !

There is no need to flash the updated version if you are currently successfully rooted (you'll have gotten the latest SuperSU from Google Play updates already).
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] Grant Barker:
Is it worth us trying the SC-02E version of it? (I noticed the old link is dead now.)
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] Chainfire:
Still no idea what's going on with the SC-02E ... could it have locked bootloaders, that that is the problem ? Is there no other root available for the SC-02E ? If nothing else, I'm pretty sure a pre-rooted system image can be made.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] claudioita:
I just got a Note 2 Gt-n7105

with android 4.1.1

If I root, I think I will loose the possibility to automatically update the software to 4.1.2

Any way to root, then unroot, update to 4.1.2, then root again?

Would like to root now, without avoiding the possibility to update AUTOMATICALLY to 4.1.2.

Thanks
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] f9cator:
I think you will loose your root after the OTA updates. So it doesn't really an issue if you can or can't do OTA updates after rooting.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] claudioita:
My point is:

1. I do the root

2. I will NOT receive OTA updates (it happened with my SG3, after rooting it did not receive OTA update

3. I will need to update manually flashing a stock ROM. But in this case I will need to wipe??!!??? This is what I want to avoid at all cost: it takes me 3 hours to redo all settings

I would like to do

1. I do the root

2. When I know there is a OTA, I will unroot

3. Do the OTA

4. Do the root again.

Hope I am clear.

Can be avoided the wiping?
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] dr.ketan:
Just making some clearance

Rooting can stop ota but if you have stock recovery and system status official you can receive OTA (this somewhat depends on ota type too)

Ota will erase root and have to re root

Flashing rom won't erase data (except you flash leaked rom) but erase root.

I exactly agree what cf saif somewhere, if you want to root forget OTA.

And if you are hqving root why not using titanium, it gives you peace and you can go clean flashing and just restore, hardly it takes less than half an hr.

Another good choice flash rom with mobile Odin and keep root intact.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] claudioita:
Ok to understand:

1. Just root and forget OTA

2. When new stock ROM comes, use Titanium to do safe backup

3. Install new stock ROM with mobile Odin, maybe Titanium restore is needed maybe not

correct?
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] dr.ketan:
Exactly.

Even I recommend schedule backup with titanium.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] f9cator:
I have tried flashing a stock ROM with Odin and my settings are all intact. So I personally think that will not be an issue for manual flashing with Odin. But just in case the settings really get wipe out, you can always backup with Titanium Backup like what dr.ketan had suggested.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] dr.ketan:
Yes, Flashing manually doesn't wipeout anything except you have flashed leaked ROM.

If you are downloading from sammobile, RED exclamation mark on PDA suggests 'Leaked' ROM and may wipe data.

On my stock ROM thread, I excludes leaked ROM.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] claudioita:

Hi, I use your root method with my encrypted SD card.

Is there any suggestion? XD

You have root? Simpler cannot be. Install goo manaher from market, open options and choose install open recovery (if TWRP is ok for you.). CWM can be installed with ROM Manager from market. Not sure if free version does it.

Flashing from Linux using Heimdall

As a Linux user I can't use Odin and prior to rooting the phone Mobile Odin Pro doesn't work either.

For those who want/need to flash CF Auto root follow just do the following simple steps (Android SDK for getting ADB must be installed as well as Heimdall, you won't need the frontend)

- reboot your phone into download mode and connect it via USB

- download the CF Auto Root ZIP to your PC

- go to the folder that contains the ZIP and unzip it

then in a terminal window go again to the same folder and enter the following (replacing the filename with the right one for your device):

untar the tar file (replace filename with the one for your device)

tar -xf ./CF-Auto-Root-t0lte-t0ltexx-gtn7105.tar.md5

optional and only shows if Heimdall has detected a device:

heimdall detect

And now it's time to flash (it's likely that you don't need sudo but it doesn't harm anyway in this case and might prevent communication issues)

sudo heimdall flash --verbose --cache ./cache.img --recovery ./recovery.img

The files are then being uploaded to the phone, it reboots, the red Android robot appears and this special recovery does its job and afterwards reboots the phone - job done!

If you have backup then once try wipe cache and data from recovery and re do

Alternately try flashing CWM, later you can change recovery.

@ dr Ketan,

I followed also these instructions but still NOTHING.

Odin performs a few operations and the last OSM is: "All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 0)"

At that point NOTHING more happens. The phone does not reboot, no flashing leds, no red droid, nothing... the on screen message only says: "downloading... Do not turn off target !!" There is a big green droid and in the top left hand corner it reads:

Odin Mode (red)

Product Name : GT-N7105 (white)

Custom binary download : NO (white)

Current binary : Samsung Official (white)

System status : Official (white)

After 30 minutes still nothing happened and so I disconnected the phone, removed the battery, reinserted and rebooted in recovery "factry reset". Re-switched off, and repeated the whole procedure 4 more times. NOTHING! Can it be some specific carrier (Italian Vodafone) lock? The phone seems to work perfectly except for 2 problems:

1. no matter what I do I cannot get the WiFi to hook up to 802.11n on 5GHz and

2. no matter what I do I cannot get the radio to hook up to the Softbank LTE even though the phone IS preset for the same frequencies.

I don't know how to do this. Could you pls teach me?

Again, thanks for the help. I really appreciate it because without root I cannot modify my carrier's (Softbank) APN and I risk a huge phone bill @the end of the month!
