Ya man.

As what dr. Ketan mentioned. It is working on v2 up.

I ve used it on n7105 and resetted to 0.

But system status still modified. Don't worry the modified thing will gone after flashing stock firmware. I have tried it also.

Sent from N7105, at the corner of this rounded earth.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] djashjones:
my status is modified but if i flash the stock firmware then my root will also go?

im running V2.26 but i cant see the "auto reset at boot"
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] Scalee:
I used this method a week ago, then wiped cache then data then cache again. This gave me the official status.

Now a week later and no flashing done i enter download mode to see my status being custom.

What happened?

(Re running triangle away 2.26 did manage to set me back to official)
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] _delice_doluca_:
I have read every page and i believe my questions have not been asked before (if it is forgive my carelessness)

So, i am trying to understand things in parts. Please Correct me where i am wrong.

1st part; the warranty; in order to have warranty i need my download screen to show status as; official/official Samsung and counter as "0". As long as it is like this i have warranty

2nd part: I have a question here; can i let my counter raise above 1 or 2 or any number until i really need to reset it to "0" or is there a risk limit that i should keep it under?

3rd part; if I install CWM recovery my phone will have a sickness which will raise the counter every time i boot into CWM i got that. But the question is, is this sickness permanent? I mean will it stop raising the counter once i go completely stock after reseting the counter or is there no going back when CWM got into my device even for once and temprorarily?

4th part; is there any way to change the "status"s back to original? Or will I lose them forever once i modify the device?

So basically can I just enjoy my device any way i like and use the "5 steps of getting back to original for warranty" on the page 16 when i need my warranty?

And thanks for the great work Chainfire. You have the biggest part in Android World to come to this day..
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] dr.ketan:
1.yes

2.Triangle away can reset counter if your device can boot up normally, in situation where your counter is raised and device not boot up normally and you have to claim warranty, you can't reset counter. so better keep it '0'

3.Once you flash stock recovery and set your counter '0' then it will remain '0'

4.It is temporary, once you flash stock ROM with factory reset, it turns to 'official'
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] _delice_doluca_:
Thanks for the help i was able to root my device easily. But I have a problem here, the triangle away does not work. Every time i open it, it downloads an 8 Mb of add-on and when I say "reset counter" it just force closes. So I am stuck with "counter=1"..

My Firmware info is;

Baseband N7100XXALIH,

Build No: JRO03C.N7100XXALJ1

Fully stock Turkey ROM..

Edit: It has just worked without me doing anything and successfully resetted the counter and the status :)
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] donschmidto:
Thx!

Many thx Chainfire for this one!

I am using your stuff since SGS2 and now on the Note2 (which I am going to test now).

[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] Tkbf:
Yes.

I am on ZSALJA everything stock.

Rooted by CF-Auto-root, and Triangle Away successfully reset flash count to 0 in download mode.

While Device status=Modified can be reverted to Normal by doing Wipe data/factory reset.

Now my SGNII is rooted and Software Update also functional.

Waiting to see if next OTA update can be installed normally.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] _delice_doluca_:
It happened again. I have tried the new CyanogenMod and then installed my stock firmware after. First wiped everything, rooted (without CWM) installed triangle away and it is not working again. Every time I open it, it downloads the same data and when i click on reset the counter it just force closes. I tried restarting device, wiping again but nothing helped. Any idea?
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] AkiraBBQ:
My device is N7105 Hong Kong version, and using stock N7105ZHALJ4. By flashing CF-Auto-Root-t0lte-gtn7105.zip, root access and everything else work like a charm except the OTA software update page. The software update dialog just keeps waiting and won't return any result.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] zard:
Facing same issue with Singapore SingTel LJ3 firmware too!
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] Tkbf:
Software update stop working because the Device status is Modified.

Backup your app and data with tools like Titanium Backup. Also backup the data in the internal SDcard.

Goto stock recovery, perform wipe cache, wipe data/factory reset(will wipe everything, including your INTERNAL sdcard will be wiped), and reboot.

Device status should revert to Normal and software update will work again.

But this is only a work around, as somehow status may become Modified again later.

I know most people tend to receive install package from official channel, but you can find resource in communities, kernels, ROMs, and OTA package as well. Just flash them using PC Odin, or Mobile Odin. Still beautiful. :)

[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] dr.ketan:
I don't thing issue is due to just rooting. It may have conflict with some sw

Just do factory reset, it should solve it.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] Magic2009:
Am I doing something wrong??? I've flashed CF-Auto-Root-t03g-gtn7100 using Odin, then when using triangle away,, its saying custom binary download: No,, Current Binary: Samsung Official,, System Status: Custom?? When rebooted and checking settings > about device > status > device status is still showing "modified" --- how do I get this back to normal so the OTA software update will work????
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] Chainfire:
You are doing several things wrong. The number of question marks in your post is all wrong, for example.

It was also wrong not to use the search and/or read the relevant threads. All that can be said about System Status: Custom, and Settings -> About Device -> Status Device has already been said and documented.

The last thing you do wrong is actually wanting root and OTA to work at the same time. It should be an either/or thing. I could try to explain, but it won't matter, because the next 15 posts will all be the exact same question again.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] Magic2009:
Apologies Chainfire -- new at this game, qq then, is it possible to get the note 2 back to original state losing modified status?
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] Tkbf:
Reset flash count to 0 using Triangle Away, and flash a stock rom.

@Chainfire

Thanks for your great job.

I rooted my note 2 using CF auto root, and Triangle Away reset the flash count to 0, stock kernel, then by wiping data/factory reset I have the Device status=Normal while device is still rooted. Software Update is functional so I believe I am able to receive OTA and install it without problem. Once OTA package is installed, as system will be overwritten, so I need to root it again. Am I correct?
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] emprize:
I use mobile odin to flash n7105lj4 from sammobile.com, also with everroot, after that, i check the root is there and status is official, but after i reboot, the status changed to modified, and no matter how many time i reset with triangle away, it shows counter as 1, is it normal?
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] mrsus:
I flashed my N7100 with the N7105 root file by accident :( , I then try rooting it with the N7100 file again.

But the phone still show as N7105, anyway to change it back ? beside the number change everything seem to be working normally..

Cheers.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] Seifer1975:
Not sure if it will work for Note2 but it worked for me before on padfone, you can try ota rootkeeper to preserve root after ota update.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] Tkbf:
In fact I have SuperSU Pro installed, and Pro version has OTA Survival Mode which should keep root through the OTA upgrade, althouth not guaranteed.

As currently my n7100 is rooted, Device status is Normal and Software Update is functional, it's just interesting to see what will happen when next OTA rolling out. :)
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] Chainfire:
OTA behavior is undefined. An OTA is a differential between two system states. The original system state has been modified by rooting, as such the differential is by definition incorrect to get the wanted system state, from Samsung's perspective. Mathematically speaking, it literally doesn't add up. That is why the result is "undefined".

An OTA could work fine, or it might bork up your system. It depends on the OTA. That's why Mobile ODIN has the capability to flash ZIP OTAs, it can modify them "on the fly" to correct these issues. Unfortunately it cannot flash BIN OTAs which Samsung sometimes uses.

All in all, everybody should just forget about OTAs. OTAs are very rare and far between, and full firmwares are generally released as well (either by Samsung or costummade by SamFirmware).

Yes, SuperSU (Pro!) support OTA survival mode so you won't lose root IF (and that's a big IF) the OTA manages to flash, and on some devices that does work, but it still shouldn't.

Again, everybody should just forget about OTA compatibility. The amount of effort people put in complaining/asking/fretting about OTAs is a lot more than it takes to just wait and flash a the full firmware when it comes out.

[HTC One X] mizreh:
Hello,

I bought a second hand HOX last week. It was sold to me as unlocked from operator SFR (Vodaphone France, or CID VODAP203).

I bought an unlocking code from an internet shop, tried it, didn't work... I went into a shop specialized in unlocking phones they could not make it provider free...

So I went on to this forum. Plenty of nice things, and as I already rooted an Android tablet from TOSHIBA (FOLIO100), I tried a few things.

It appears that my phone is rooted. When I boot in bootloader it says "UNLOCKED", and it is also S-OFF!!! I am able to change the CID as much as I want, and I have set it to "11111111". As such I was told on a french forum that any SIM Card from any provider should work, but it doesn't...

I have been able to install Jelly Bean from one of the ROM developpers, thinking (and this is where I am a noob) that I will clear the part of the system that tells it is locked to one provider... Of course it didn't do anything more, or different than telling me it doesn't work on any provider.

I went back to stock from Vodaphone France, and came to you in order to get some instructions or link to have on working on another network than the vodaphone one...

Thanks in advance for your help,

Alain
[HTC One X] M@c|-|oR:
First off, it's great you have an S-OFF handset. You are lucky about that.:good:

On the other hand, unlocking bootloader doesn't have anything to do with SIM locks. So, whatever you did (as you experienced it yourself) doesn't work.:(

I suggest you search over here, because I know for sure there is a way to unlock SIM lock on HOX. I didn't have to do it, as mine was already unlocked (or SIM free, I can't tell now).:confused:

Don't worry, you'll find the way, just be patient.:cool:

A bientot!

:)
[HTC One X] mizreh:
Yeah everyone told me it was great to have it S-OFF, although I don't know what it can do for me... I guess this would be great for developpers ?

I hope I won't have to go through several unlock code providers...
[HTC One X] M@c|-|oR:
S-OFF is giving you advantage in being able to flash any ROM, any RUU, any HBOOT, any radio... Good not only for developers.

Back to topic - I suggest you visit some mobile phone service, and pay ONLY after they finish the work. I guess there are whole lot of frauds online,, that would take you money for the "unlock code", and not care if it doesn't work.

I repeat, be patient, and keep searching. Here's what I found (you can do the same search yourself):

[HTC One X] huxleypig:
it cost me a whole £2.79 to get mine unlocked.

I bought the code from ebay inserted an un supported sim and entered the code when asked. That's the main reason actually why I've stuck with HTC they are so easy to un lock
[HTC One X] M@c|-|oR:
Mate, nowadays most phones are unlocked through pw.... code. Usually, you get it for specific handset (IMEI and operator), and just type it in as you did.

BTW, Samsung Galaxy SIII is even easier to unlock - by an apk from Google Play Store. ;)
[HTC One X] mizreh:
Hello,

I went through one of Unlock Code providers that M@c|-|oR provided me through his links...

I had the exact same unlock code as the one I got in France... that doesn't work. But the guys were really professional, in reimbursing my money as they could not unlock my phone.

The strangest thing is that they asked me if the phone is rooted, and said that this is why I cannot SIM Unlock, because it is rooted... I reverted by to stock, and re-locked the phone but the result is still the same, it stays stuck to SFR...

I hope a solution will come out in the form of an application such as the one for Galaxy III, it looks so easy to do.

Have a good evening,

Hi my phone was branded by orange and obviously had a simlock what did with my hox and many others before is:root the phone ,get recovery,then flash custom rom and all that branded garbage with simlock is gone.I've done it before with galaxy S,S2,now with my hox. Don't never ever buy any codes online.

Hello,

I already did that, (root, flash customer ROM), but simlock is still here... only thing I didn't change is recovery, but it is 5.8.xxx (aka I think it is the latest).

Can you guide me rapidly in return ?

[Android] xiamubobby:
As in the title, I recently purchase a new HTC phone, and it's built for ChinaTelecom(carrier). So i think most here haven't even heard about it and it's called:

--------HTC new Desire VC

--------aka HTC t238d

Now comes the problem!!

Before this phone which i got it nearly free, i always relied on my oldold milestone. Quite old fashioned but really good phone and the most important thing is that Milestone is a WORLDWIDE POPULAR phone, so cm7, miui, anything else, worked hard with it~ Long casual years with Milestone, even after some 3rd-party rom groups stopped supporting it, it still has got lots lots of fans and hackers work on it. Until the day i change my phone, i was extremely using almost-perfect ICS on my oldstone...

But the stone finally get exhausted at everything, everything is not smooth, not one more app is installable or the phone became veryvery not-usable... And this new one mentioned above is great at these points, quite good hardware, stock ics etc.

The main thread comes: I hate Chinese carrier stock roms, and I hate HTC Sence also... And I have been using cm7~9 nearly all the time and of course, it's my favorite. But i can't find my SPECIAL phone in the cm10(or 9) support list without doubt. And no foreign hackers works on it without doubt again. There do exist some Chinese developers making t238d custom roms but they are not good.

Let me explain, in China, both developers and customers prefer a thing they called Chinaly I suppose... They don't like stock android, i mean the google one, they split out the gapps with nothing left but lots of Chinese things instead, i.e the huge Tencent Empire products maybe you have heard. Even they hate holo style!! Millions and Millions of apps are fake-ios themed. I am totally minority so not a single locale developers like my idea indeed.

I like google, like cm, like HOLOed apps, like fake-vanilla things even. And CM becomes my last hope. I have to port it to my phone on my own...

What I got

--------totally pure Linux OpenSuse(i686/x86-64 both)

--------openJDK, gcc things

--------SDK,NDK thins

--------the great kitchen

--------repo init -u git://github.com/CyanogenMod/android.git -b jellybean , repo init -u git://github.com/CyanogenMod/android.git -b ics both (jb prefered, i love cutting-edge toys... but no suitable develop skill sadly)

--------primodd kernel sources from here: h t t p://htcdev.com/devcenter/downloads (search desire vc you will also find them)

Then i think i have got a prepared environment and both clean complete cm src and htc stock kernel src, that means i can port cm to my phone!

But, if I really can, what shall i do now.....Just a little advice will be very very appreciated, cause i've struggled with those problem for quite long time.

And if i suck, which means i just can't do what i want because of any reason, please tell me too.

Thank you guys anyway！
[Android] lithid-cm:
Everyone that asks this gets the same response. There are many basic porting guides all over the web. Google for some of those. Find a phone with a similar build type. Might get lucky and find a device you can build and it boots, then you just have to fix device specifics. You are attempting to embark on a new journey. I don't have your device. I can't really help. You need to figure out a lot of this on your own.
[Android] thewadegeek:
What lithid said also applies to the rest of us. We can't say "Oh right, edit this file, that file, and the other file, and viola you'll have a perfectly booting CyanogenMod." It takes some experience, a lot of reading, and a lot of trial and error. Also expect the device to be unusable/unbootable 90%+ of the time so if this is your primary device I suggest holding off on the development.

So short story: Google it.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nathan-96:
Hello, I know simulair threads have been made. But this problem is more specific.

A friend of mine has bought, even I told him not too, the ACE-i. He was very happy with it and looked for a way to root it. He did it by applying a file with his recovery. The phone rebooted and didn't start (stuck on bootscreen). He can't get into download mode, withs sucks. However, recovery is ACEssible, so I tried (after he did) to install a custom rom. It didn't work. Then I tried to format system, but there was a mount error. I discovered that the system isn't accessible. Is there a way to fix this guy's phone?

Cheers, nathan-96
