Easiest way is to install goo manager from the market. Then press the 3 dots, then Install OpenRecovery Script.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] Ogy77:
Thanx man but can you answer is twrp safety then cwm?
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] owl74:
yes and TWRP is a lot better than CWM. I used to use CWM.

easiest way to flash is go to google play and look for chainfire's Mobile Odin... you can easily flash kernels, recoveries, and roms with that tool.

[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] BoBBBBBBBO:
So I'm an Android noob and I got a probably funny question for you guys.

I wanna root my Galaxy Note 2 so can I download Odin, download TWRP recovery and root it with Odin and flashing TWRP or should I first flash CWM recovery and after that flash TWRP?
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] yahyoh:
wrong place to ask :rolleyes:

but i will help u , u have to way to root

1- use CF auto root ( no need for recovry just odin )

2- install TWRP recovery via odin then flash su zip file :cowboy:

Is it OK if I just use the Galaxy Note 2 Toolkit?

yes but it is easier to download use CF autoroot, after rooting, install CF Mobile Odin from the play store, install it on your Note 2, then download the TWRP .tar file and use mobile odin to flash it. Simples...
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] BoBBBBBBBO:
Or I can use CF-Auto-Root and then install TWRP recovery with GooManager.

[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] yahyoh:

[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] Enterprise-D:
For me, TWRP formating data also erase the whole internal storage...It has just happened to me:(
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] yahyoh:
HMM .... i've tested it many times with factory reset option and it never wiped my internal mem :cyclops:
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] Enterprise-D:
Probably because you use factory reset option, and not format data...wich I think I will never use anymore;)

By the way, is it possible to toggle usb storage? I didn't found the option...
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] bigbiff:
Formatting data formats the entire data partition which has your internal sdcard data.

Factory reset just removes all files EXCEPT internal sdcard.

Neither option wipes /system or /cache or other partitions.

Can I use TWRP Recovery to flash cyanogen 10.1 (4.2.1) based roms? Thanks.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] bigbiff:
Sorry we don't have usb storage at this time.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] bigbiff:
Yes, just be careful when going back to 4.1 because your files will be under /data/media/0 and will need to be moved back for 4.1 to see them.

excuse me i'm a noob here

i had Galaxy tab 2 P5100 before and i rooted it with recovery CWM through odin

does this option could be applied here by applying root and installing recovery at the same operation

i mean does installing recovery makes my phone rooted ?

Hi

I have a problem with v 2.4

Time for backup:

V 2.3.3.2 -> 4 minutes -> write speed 8mb/second

V 2.4 -> 20 minutes -> write speed 2mb/second

Whats the problem?

I formatted my extrenal SD card with the latest recovery and it has gone from being a 16GB to a 2GB?!?!?! I have formatted it with Androids built in utility, the latest CWM and even previous versions of TWRP, still only being recognised as a 2GB???
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] Androssama:
You need to use a desktop partitioning tool (Windows 7 integrated Disk Management tool will do fine) and delete whatever partitions you have on your SD card and recreate a new one that uses the whole card, then format it with whatever tool you like/have.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] bigbiff:
Are you checking compression?
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] bigbiff:
Has it ever worked? I assume you would need a module to activate the wacom digitizer.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] bigbiff:
Unless you used the sdcard partitioner we don't recreate partitions. It would have been messed up already. We just run mkfs on the partition.

How can i do that?

I changed nothing.

I flashed v2.4 and made a backup.

Then i flashed 2.3.3.2 and also made a backup.

With 2.4 the backup had 2,1gb

With 2.3.3.2 it had 1,9gb

Re: [RECOVERY] TWRP2.4.0.0 TeamWin Recovery Project 1/29

I think there is considerable slowness in backing up using 2.4 versus previous version.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] bigbiff:
Might have to go back to using exfat modules rather than exfat. Look like performance is a lot slower than expected.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] rob_z11:

Sorry to ask this here:

I've installed ROOT on my stock N7100 with Method 3: Root with apk (sticky thread in this forum)

Can I install this recovery or do I need to ROOT my device with other ie. ODIN method first?

Thanks in advance!
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] cd993:
OK i have managed to fix my problem. I flashed an old Hyperdroid rom and formatted that. It initially said it was damaged but then proceeded to format it and not only fixed it but restored it to being a 16GB card.

I flashed JellyBeer again, flashed the latest TWRP and I don[t know why but I decided to wipe the external SD again, with the same result as it making it a 2GB card agaion lol I shall repeat my process and in future avoid usuing TWRP to wipe the external.

I Absolutely LOVE this recovery, both for its UI and functionaility.

Absofackingtastic! ...

Now. You would belive that if i choose to wipe data partition it would just do that right? WRONG!

It just so happens that it deletes your entire internal sd memory leaving nothing but a lovely TWRP folder left... sweet... ...

Note to self... think twice.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] bigbiff:
Sorry you learned it the hard way. You only need to factory reset which will rm -rf all files under /data/ except media directory.

This is the way TWRP was designed to work, giving you the ability to format /data if needed. I hope you didn't lose anything important.

Good Luck.
