True because of the custom recovery.

Sent from my GNote II
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] kendotelie:
download the file provided in OP to your SD.

power down the device

then access the stock recovery by pressing the vol +, home button, and then the power button at the same time. let go once the sprint flash screen appears. The stock recovery will appear

select "apply update from external storage" using the volume + and - buttons to highlight the option and the power button to choose that option,

highlight and choose the zip file you placed on the SD

the update will initiate and voila you're updated

heres my proof and there is multiview
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] phungshum:
But we have stock recovery
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mrush:
Just did it. Worked like a charm. Took a little longer than normal to reboot. That's all. I applied the update from my external SD and no issues. Now to re-root!

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] kendotelie:
i cant speak on re-root. I was never rooted to begin with but someone let me know how that goes or if its appropriate yet. im just glad to have "multi-window" and no longer a vibration from text while in-call
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] stylz3:
so your saying if you do this method and have root access you will loose root?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mrush:
You have to be unrooted in the first place in order to use this method.

I was rooted using Chainfire's method. I had done nothing else to the phone. I updated using this zip and it worked just fine. I then had to reapply chainfires root. So far so good.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] moose1313:
not taking

I'm fully stock.i pushed update it went through successfully. But it didn't change anything. I still have no multi Window feature. And the help isnt updated with it. Actually seems that the only thing that did change was my signal strength is less than what it was . Maybe because it only ten minutes after boot.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] tabonuk:
would the counter being at more than one have anything to do with the problems

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] guirae:
i am now on the new PALJC

i was rooted on a stock ROM before this.

1) downloaded viperboy's stock .tar

2) changed the md5 to a .tar format and placed in PDA then ODIN'ed to stock.

(THIS MIGHT NOT BE THE CASE FOR EVERYONE)

3) downloaded cincyelite22's OTA update file on my phone (it ended up in my external SD)

4) booted into STOCK RECOVERY.

5) navigated to external SD card then flashed the update zip file.

took a while on the Samsung screen but after that it booted up and now i finally have multi-window.

Cheers.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mrRobinson:
if anyone rooted with my stock injected rom, can you please try my modified OTA file I posted about here.

Its simply trying to retain root through the ota process without needing you to do anything special.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Jocelyn:
Going to try this now

Edit: I lost root, but it worked!

Carrying this over from the last page, so it doesn't go unnoticed.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] wwjoshdew:
Thanks OP! I will have to make a video soon!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] cherylbaker:
I did 1.. did not do 2.. just unzipped the file info my odin directory... had my own ota update file stored on my sd card so I used that

did 4 and 5.

BUT I also reset to factory defaults after odin cause all my files were still on my phone.

I now have a brand new phone without having to pay any extra.. :).. yah.... I get all the fun of setting it up again...

I have a question.. If I stay stock.. but root and install twrp can I still flash the mod files that people are putting in their roms??? and can I flash the new kernel???

my phone got waaay out of control last time.. I prefer to stay close to stock but scott left so I morphed and modded morph and OMG it is amazing my phone even worked hahahaha..

love the multitasking bar.. realllllly cool...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Sess:
Too bad I didn't wait an extra hour for your post, after trying and failing to flash after both installing stock recovery and editing the failed build prop values, I reflashed the stock tar, then did the update successfully. Luckily since I didn't have to wipe data, everything was retained. Rerooting was slightly more of a hassle since the damn ota restores the recovery recovering script. I just had to reflash twrp, reboot immediatley into recovery and then reflash chainfire's SU pack. Everything looks golden, now. MultiView is pretty cool, but someone needs to roll in the xml editing mod. :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] enormous:
What if we're running stock rooted, but have also flashed TWRP? What should be flashed in order to get a stock recovery back?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Jocelyn:
Use GN2 Toolkit to flash stock recovery. It's option 6
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Hero_is_Over:
Can someone who has rooted the update please copy the contents of your root directory on your phone to your sdcard and make a zip. Dont copy data sdcard or storage. If this is done I will make a custom rom for us today with badass tweaks and a fresh updated kernel. Pleeeaaasseee as I am on linux and heimdall is not working. We can do this community!!!

Ask any questions necessary but I might be napping until I can get a zup with all the proper files
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Dilandu:
Im new to the whole Android rooting scene and used the Galaxy Note 2 Took kit to root my device. I also undid the root and removed TWRP back to the normal recovery. But when I try to load the update via sd card in the stock recovery I get this error

assert failed: getprop ("ro.product.device") == "t01tespr" I I getprop ("ro.build.product") == "t01tespr"

E: Error in /tmp/sideload/package/zip

(Status 7)

Do I have to reinstall the stock recovery rom and wipe my phone? or is there something Im just over looking?

Thanks
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mrRobinson:
yes but try this for me since you have to reflash stock anyway http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=33859574&postcount=21

flash the stock injected i have in that thread. then try my OTA to retain root and get the upgrade.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Sess:
Look up at my previous post on this page. I just had the same scenario as you and came out shiny on the other side ;)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Jocelyn:
You can do one of four things.

1. Reinstall stock everything add you mentioned above.

2. Follow my quoted post at the top of the page and lose root.

3. Wait for devs to post and updated method.

4.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Dilandu:
I will try and read that your post says and see if I do it. Im downloading the stock rom now and will try to install it. Im guess with my knowledge with all this root stuff at a bare min I should just stick with stock everything for now lol
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mrRobinson:
ok. by "stock" rom hopefully you are downloading my root injected stock I have in my thread. then you'd need to get the OTA I have in that post and apply that. If you get the normal stock rom you'll never have root.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Dilandu:
Opps...no im downloading the one from viper...the one from jocelyns quoted post... Will the devs not be able to root this new update ever?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] JudasD:
One thing i did notice is that after i upgraded and ran Chainfire auto root the SU app did not install. Root would work, but i didnt have the app. So i had to reinstall it from the app store.

JD
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Jocelyn:
I now have root. I feel like I could have just updated the binary through SuperSU after updating, but I forgot to check so see if you can do that before my next step. If that doesn't work, I used the LJ1 recovery tar via the GN2 Toolkit (Option 3 ALLINONE with TWRP & SuperSU) and it worked. I'm now rooted with TWRP & LJC!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Dilandu:
Thanks for all the help , I installed the stock rom from your quoted post and It seemed to have worked fine and phone is now booting up with ( crosses fingers ) new update. I think ill stay away from the root thing for now. I just wanted to do it to try and use Wifi Tether but it didnt seem to work ... Guess ill wait till that is working before i try rooting again.

Thanks again.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Currykun:
Anxiously awaiting the root method for applying the update. I'm personally not too thrilled about the extended toggles, it's annoying to see them scroll every time the notification bar is pulled down. Nonetheless, excited for the multi-window feature!

Has the new update been working well for everyone?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] guirae:
Yup its been sweet. I too am waiting for root for the OTA..
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mrRobinson:
what do you mean awaiting root method for applying update? I think there are a few depending on where you want to start (stock or non-stock recovery) and where you want to end up (stock or flashing custom roms).

not true I tried it several times didnt work. even with stock recovery being rooted when enter download mode it shows custom binaries but stock firmware im sure thats why it wont apply the update

this is what I did except I used the GN2 toolkit to flash the tar.md5 (didnt have to rename). Worked perfect.. re-rooting my phone now :laugh:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] zedomax:
works fine on rooted, if you removed any stock apps it might not work.

yeah I didnt have to rename the file either. the note 2 toolkit still works just use option 4 after uve selected the sprint device (will still say lj1 thats ok) and then just follow instructions all the same

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] ffolkes:
After reading all the posts on this thread, I'm actually more confused.

Right now I have 100% stock. Can I apply the OTA via stock recovery, and then use CF Root as usual? I thought so, but then I saw some posts here that made me second guess myself.

Thanks.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] rwright64:
That's what I did.

Worked fine.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] pspmiggz:
awesomeness!

I used gsnII toolkits back to stock then applied update. And rerooted with toolkit agian. Works perfectly. Ljc and root. One happy dude!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] wwjoshdew:
From my experiences, I kept getting the error, after installing stock recovery (and you can see that in my video). I'm no expert, but I know on the Transformer Prime if you removed any system apps, you were out of luck. It would fail at the verifying screen. So I used a 100 percent stock tar and flashed via ODIN, then used the CF Root thing (for the very first time), backed up root, installed the update, restored root, and demoed the new feature! :D

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=39wrDeckjls

[YOUTUBE]39wrDeckjls[/YOUTUBE]

My theory is that if you didn't remove any system apps and you have stock recovery, this will flash just fine. Thank you VERY much OP for this. I'm one of the many who does NOT wait for things to get pushed to me. And people like you feed that need to have the very latest and greatest, so THANK YOU!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] cherylbaker:
I am very frustrated at this point. I am currently at stock plus ota. I can do nothing to get root or twrp. I tried the toolkit option 4 but it says to pick install from sd card and guess what I do not have that option. only option I have is to apply update.. which I already have arrg. I even tried using that option anyway but it fails of course for signature check.

can you use fastboot with samsung??? I mean can I just fastboot flash recovery twrp???

I am afraid once 9am rolls around and josh's rooted stock update rom is done updating and I try to use odin to put it on my phone it will not work. since I do not know why nothing else will work.

anyone have any ideas.. I even tried using install twrp alone from the toolkit but of course no love for me..

arrggg

Ok so I just ran the same root file I ran on my origonal I figured I was just wantingvtwrp so I csn install joshs new one anyway so it really didnt matter all that much if it was a little hinky. Worked fine seems fine.. having fun playing waiting for joshs stock root to download.

Dunno why the toolkit woyldnt work but such is life
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Kelvala:
Full stock with CF-Root and TWRP

Ok, my phone was fully stock, rooted and had the TWRP recovery. Here is what I did and it worked great!

Stuff:

1. Download Stock Recovery from HERE

2. Download the OTA update HERE.

3. Install SuperSU from the play store

4. Install SuperSU Pro from the play store ($2.49)

5. Install OTA Rootkeeper from the play store

Instructions

1. Flash via TWRP back to Stock recovery

2. Reboot

3. SuperSU settings -> Enable Superuser, Survival Mode, Reauthentication

4. Via OTA Rootkeeper Backup root and then TEMP Un-root

5. Power off

6. Power, Vol Up and Home button salute.

7. Install update from SD card

8. Reboot and wait and wait and wait and wait....You will see the Samsung Galaxy Screen for a few minutes

9. Go back to OTA RootKeeper and Restore Root.

10. Enjoy!

Many thanks to a WHOLE list of people who's stuff I have linked above!

Nice thing is all of this can be done WITHOUT a PC. I am sure I could have skipped a couple of steps, but I just wanted to list out what I did and its working as expected :D

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Kelvala:
Not sure, I use Titanium Backup to freeze the bloatware. I have not removed any of it. Sorry, I wish I could be more help. Although, I think you might be safe to try it since I tried and update and it just failed on me with no repercussions.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Cyclonut:
Yes i use TB to freeze also just in case for some apps. Others i just remove knowing it won't hurt anything.

Yea I guess it can't hurt to give it the good ole should've finished college try..lol!

Still need kernel, modem, bootloader. The rom is just system.

I'm sure joshbeach will post those pieces but didn't see them yet. So this will give you all the updates not just /system
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] -viperboy-:
I mean, yeah, you make a good point. However, you won't be able to reliably dump the radio and other firmware. You'll have to wait for the tar for those that don't wanna go this route.

I can't get this to work, I'm getting that same "status 7" error posted earlier. I unrooted and flashed stock recovery, I was never on a ROM either. I need help, please. I don't know what I want more, the update or the message for the OTA to stop.
