its called geeky engine, a mix of various tweak engines like adrealine engine, lagfree script etc..

WORKAROUND for recovery error (Status 0):

1. Unzip it and go to:

META-INF/com/google/android/update-binary file

2. delete it and replace with an update-binary from another rom.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] lee-T:
does or will the CM10 mod have customizable LED notification settings?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Brian Gove:
Yes
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] JBO1018:
Yes it actually works pretty well. It takes some testing to get the colors just right but the way CM has it setup makes it a breeze.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Internet Guy:
It works great. You can add whatever apps you want notifications for, as well as custom colors for each.

Ok so i have attempted a port of the galaxy note 10.1 jellybean rom, using CM10 as a base i have run into a bootloop you can download this link and try it out also will be my logcat

also if you can tell me how to fix this i would be happy to do it too

Drop Box Port: Galaxy Note 10.1 Port

Logcat:LOGCAT

i believe the error is with my kernal
[Acer Iconia A500] 10507:
Have you tried other kernel, like eztery or godmachine's kernel?
[Acer Iconia A500] jnktechstuff:
no if you have it can you please try, I don't feel like installing another kernel, but will work on it

Wow this would be a miracle if this ROM works :D

yes sir indeed i got my fingers crossed hoping this ROM happens
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Did you split your boot.img and change the ramdisk image and such? While retaining the 500 kernel?

If you are going to port something, this is one of the basics.

Just changing a few hardware files, won't work.

[Acer Iconia A500] jnktechstuff:
No i knew i forgot something, did you read the logcat, i dont read logcat but i think it said that it had a memory error
[Acer Iconia A500] ernestus:
Well, you said it all, probably there is no memory in the the place the kernel is trying to setup its stack, is your kernel an A500 one or is it from another machine with a different memory layout? because it smells like the latter.

Sorry to say this but you are a very unstable person, you already made another thread some time ago regarding MIUI in the iconia A500 but you did not finish anything and you quit and now the same thing happens again.

Craig's Walky Talky!

ok, this does not use voip, no servers, no Internet required!

It has 2 modes

1st mode (default on run) it simply uses your wifi modem to relay your voice data, so everyone using the app on the same wifi network can hear each other!

2nd mode "enable ap" this turns your phone into a wifi router, once enabled on 1 device.. on the other android device click wifi and scan for the ap from the first device..

This mode allows you to talk out in the open anywhere anyplace using just 2 or more android devices just like a real walky talky!

Check your device model ! Settings -> About device -> Model number. This stuff is made for the SPH-L900, if your model number has a suffix, it may not work, or if it is a totally different model, it will not work (may even brick) !

CF-Root is the root for "rooting beginners" and those who want to keep as close to stock as possible. CF-Root is meant to be used in combination with stock Samsung firmwares, and be the quickest and easiest way for your first root.

Donate

CF-Root has been available for many device (Galaxy S1, Galaxy Tab 7", Galaxy S2, Galaxy Note, Galaxy Nexus, Galaxy S3) and has clocked over 8 million downloads. This is not even counting custom ROMs that already include it. Don't be a leech, buy me a beer (and use the "Thanks" button!). Imagine if every CF-Root user has donated me $1...

What's installed

- SuperSU binary and APK

- Stock recovery

Installation and usage

Flash the CF-Auto-Root package as PDA in ODIN (details on how to do that are in next post), and your device should reboot into a modified recovery (signified by a large red Android logo) and it will install SuperSU for you and restore the stock recovery, and reboot back into Android.

If you don't get to the red Android logo, boot into recovery manually ("adb reboot recovery", or boot while holding Power+VolUp+Home).

Using this root increases your flash counter. You should run Triangle Away (see below) after rooting to reset the counter. Note that if you want to run custom kernels or custom recoveries, your flash counter will be set to 1 at every boot. Either configure Triangle Away to reset the counter at every boot (Play version only) or only reset the counter when you need to go into warranty.

Did you see the red Android logo during rooting, but SuperSU does not appear? This may sometimes occur due to left-over files and settings, however, you can usually install SuperSU from Google Play at this stage and it'll just work.

Not included - Triangle Away

Triangle Away can be used to reset the flash counter after installing CF-Root. The flash counter keeps track of how many custom firmwares you have flashed, as this voids warranty. (No idea what this about ? Read up on it, you will want to use this !)

Not included - adbd Insecure

As this CF-Root does not include a custom kernel, adb shell does not have root access by default (you can still get it by typing su inside the shell), nor is adb remount supported, nor will adb push and adb pull work on system files. adbd Insecure can be used to remedy this situation. (No idea what this is about ? Don't worry about it !)

ODIN Installation (detailed)

- Follow these instructions to the letter. Do not touch any buttons or checkboxes that are not listed below to touch!

- Unzip the attached Odin3-vX.X.zip file

- Download and unzip the CF-Auto-Root-....zip file (see posts below this one)

- If you end up with a recovery.img and cache.img file, you've extracted twice. You need to end up with a .tar.md5 file - don't extract that one

- (USB) Disconnect your phone from your computer

- Start Odin3-vX.X.exe

- Click the PDA button, and select CF-Auto-Root-....tar.md5

- Put your phone in download mode (turn off phone, then hold VolDown+Home+Power to boot - if it asks you to press a button to continue, press the listed button, or run adb reboot download command)

- (USB) Connect the phone to your computer

- Make sure Repartition is NOT checked

- Click the Start button

- Wait for Android to boot

- Done (if it took you more than 30 seconds, you need practise!)

- NOTE: Sometimes the device does *not* boot into recovery mode and root your device. Just do the entire procedure again if this happens. If it still will not install root and such, make sure that in Odin "Auto Reboot" is not checked. Then after flashing, pull the battery, and boot with VolUp+Home+Power button to boot into recovery manually. This will start the install process.

New to Samsung? Unfamiliar with Odin? Think all the above is a hassle? Get used to it. It's very simple, and us Samsung folk use Odin (or Mobile ODIN ;)) for everything! It's so very very convenient once you get used to it. Notice the 30 second comment above? For experienced users, the entire process indeed takes only 30 seconds!

You may now optionally want to install and run Triangle Away to reset the flash counter.

Whatever latest tar you have would be great. When we were working on root, I know he mentioned he would like a stock recovery.img from the software the device launched on. Not to bother you further about releasing the tar, but it really is essential for people that screw something up. I made a system dump of my phone and tar'd it for use with Odin, but I didn't get to test it.

New phone ready to root question about upgrade

Hello. I am sorry for the newbie question but I think i'm all set to root and there is a system update ready. If I don't plan on flashing a rom and just rooting do I update first then root? or root then update? will the update ruin the root after?

Thank you
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] ianmb:
Update then root

Or flash a stock rooted ROM with update already in it
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mooncraterx:
Ooops! I decided to just go for it and rooted first successfully! So I guess if I update it will break root then? What is a good rom to try that has the update?

I appreciate your fast response thank you very much!

OFC: I am flashoholic so I will try them all probably. I just a good one that has the update that I can start with then dig into reading about this amazing device!!!

Pls and thank you
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] ianmb:
Update will not break root it will just fail on install. As far as ROMS go you just have to try a few. Im running Macks Allstar 3.5 with some different mods I've found here and there. You can flash a MA7 ROM because there is a MC2 update zip that you can flash to get the update. If you need any help with something you can pm me. Have fun this is a badass phone!

4.3 kills CF auto

Odin seems unable to download the tar file into the phone after the 4.3 update. However, I found the way to turn on developer options on another thread.

Enable the USB Debugging option from Developer Options menu.

- if the Developer Options is not shown, then you will need to enable it by opening Settings, go to About Phone and then go to Build Number and tap on it seven time

I was able to flash the CF Auto and the phone worked but SuperSU disappeared from the phone even though Voodoo says the phone is rooted. I couldn't do anything with Titanium or SuperSU so I tried to do a factory reset and use Kies to reinitialize upgrade. The process started then quit. You probably don't want to go down this path because my phone is stuck in the Samsung logo and the battery has to be pulled. I'll visit the Sprint store today and see if they will reflash the system. My phone is about 15 months old so there is no warranty but I have been paying the insurance so I'll see what they have to say.

Sprint replaced the phone. I had replaced a broken screen earlier and uses a damp towel to clean the LCD and that marked the liquid indicator. Even though there was nothing wrong with the phone other than needing a reflash they would only do a replacement. I had the choice of paying $200 deductible for a warranty replacement or buying $150 in accessories for which they would give me a new phone from the store. I took the cheaper deal. The problem now is it has KNOX and 4.3. I haven't found a new rooting method that is advertised to work yet.

can you use this to root the sprint note 3?

thanks
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] miha2:
Step-by-step insturctions with pictures, please

Chainfire, so I decided to root my phone, but I have several questions beforehand.

1. I'm a total noob about rooting the phone. I know what flashing is, but at the same time, I don't. In my understanding, flashing is copying a new firmware, but at the same time, this tutorial is for stock firmware...

2. Again, in my understanding, restoring the stock recovery will basically reinstall Android... Right?

3. What are the chances to make my phone stop working and throw into garbage can while rooting? I want to know there is simply NO chance of it to happen...

4. In case I'll have questions, I'd like to know the way to contact you immediately. If it's possible.

5. The only reason I want to root my phone is to add Russian firmware. I downloaded an app called "Language Enabler", but it requires root. So,

6. Maybe I should use temp root instead of perm root? If so, can I use it more than once in case I'll need to add the Russian firmware again?

7. MoreLocale 2 does not work on my SPH-L900's Android 4.3
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] DreamingWolf:
I can answer #3 for Chainfire. Each phone, like each owner is individual. While this method is as close to foolproof as can be made, nothing is 100% certain. So if you require NO chance of turning your phone into a brick the answer is don't root it. This is why you find a disclaimer in the OP of so many threads. If however you would be comfortable with a <1% chance of something going wrong during the rooting process, then I would go for it. I have rooted (and rerooted) my phones dozens of times each and have never had a problem.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] miha2:
3 questions for you then.

1. What is this <1% chance? Please provide examples

2. Do you have a Samsung Galaxy Note II, rooted?

3. If so, can you please install the app to see if it works fine and does not damage the phone in any possible way? I mean, viruses and else... System errors caused by Android/phone, not developers (it shouldn't be, but just in case...) is OK, because I can report and annoy developers in that case.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
Well looks like you already trying to annoy.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] wase4711:
obviously, you don't understand enough of this to root your phone so DON'T...

when you learn more, and dont need someone to hold your hand every step of the way, then do it.

This is a DEVELOPER site and thread, not a hand holding place...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] miha2:
1. If I knew each step, I wouldn't write here asking how to perform this or that step.

2. Want to say Samsung, HTC and all others are here?

3. I'm not trying to annoy, all I want to know is consequences. All I want to know is as much about rooting as possible before trying to ruin my phone. I'll have a chance to upgrade it in a year or so, so if I should wait for a new phone that's pretty much OK.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
Well read the Op. Everything you need to know is there. If after reading op you still dont understand what you are doing the you should not do it.

You ask if this program works then ask someone to do it and let you know. Guess what? If this didn't work it would not be here. If you want to know about any possible issues just take the time and read the thread. Any issues users have had they will post so the dev can fix them. If you cant take the time to read then dont even try doing these things. rooting will allow you to do things to your phone that can cause serious problems.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] m5james:
So I've been using this for a while now and has worked out as needed in that I wanted to be able to run WiFi tethering and nothing more. I wish I had the option of running apps like RootExplorer, but this root choice didn't allow it.

As of this evening I got the notification that Android 4.3 wanted to update on my phone. I let it run it's course on the wild chance that it'd delete the root but still install 4.3, but instead it didn't install anything and my phone is the same as before. I wanna be able to upgrade to 4.3, so I've got a few questions.

1) How do I remove this root? I'm hoping that I don't have to completely reflash my phone in that I love that it operates perfectly as is. I just remember horrid days of my Samsung Epic where I could never get battery stats to calibrate correctly, which caused a TON of other random issues from lagging to flying through battery life.

2) Once I use whatever form is required to get me back to 4.3, can I reuse this same root? I liked it's simplicity, but then again I'm torn if I should go a different route in that I wanna be able to run RootExplorer, finally delete stock apps that I never use, but still keep it is 100% reliable as it has been.
