This has been done several times before ("How To" videos in Development threads, links below!), so this thread shouldn't be a problem. I have a Galaxy Note 2, and I will be doing SEVERAL videos on this device! I already made one on how to root, and I'll be making one on how to install a custom rom, going back to stock, and etc!

I have a full time job, and get 3 days off each week. I have been going to bed and getting just a few hours of sleep lately, trying to get videos out on the days I work. I was working on my Galaxy S III video last night, and got it half finished. I'll finish it today before Dexter and The Walking Dead come on, then spend Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday making rom videos, and most importantly, how to flash stock!

if you are rooted then just download goo manager and bring up menu and select install openrecovery script.

Just ordered my Note II and will be using your root guide when I receive it.

Been using HTC devices for a number of years now - this will be my 1st Samsung.

I didn't see anything on your video pertaining obtaining nand unlock / S-Off. Is this something Samsung devices don't have to worry about as it wasn't even mentioned?

Also, any update on the tether app?

Excuse my ignorance, but is that a yes to being nand unlock and S-OFF?

On my current HTC I had to use my Linux laptop to downgrade the bootloader, then purposely bricked the device (momentarily) just to obtain S-OFF!

Is it really this simple with Samsung??
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Skid71:
Yeah, I think it is. I'm an LTEvo owner and have to maintain my wife's Note2. It appears flashing ROMS, radios (modems), and kernels seems pretty dang easy.

What country are you in? A little more description with your question might help
[HTC One S] Qs5:
The reason is because to sim unlock you have to have root. You can't update with root. I would flash an ruu that matches your device, tmobile, europe, rogers, etc... andmatches your bootloader. (1.06, 1.09, 1.13, 1.14) (You must lock your boot loader prior to the ruu. "fastboot oem lock") Run the ruu > update > root > new rom(Optional) > sim unlock again. Hope this helps ;)

Hi all

I have rooted and unlocked the bootloader but haven't taken the jump and stuck a ROM or kernel on as yet, as am actually quite happy with the stock ROM, and also rely on the headphones, amongst other things - which appear to be a problem on some of the ROMs.

If I do stick a custom ROM on, can I easily get back to the stock one, is there a stock ROM of that which I can flash via CWM ?

I understand that with CWM I (currently) have to instantly stick a ROM on, so presumably cant do a backup of the stock ROM at that point..before putting on FXP or some such

I presume I can use the sony update service, but would that wipe the root ...?

could someone enlighten me

many thanks

Take a backup of what you have now in recovery, and you can always restore.

Also there are plenty of stock .ftfs in the allin one thread in Q&A that can be flashed in flashtool

No.

if you flash cmw from the thread then yeas, but you have unlocke your bootloader, so just flash the advanced stock kernel and then you have recovery without having to reflash a rom...
