[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] soba49:
I'm only aware of one PIT. The only one that is relevant is the original one we got on the forums SCH-i605-16gb.pit, since it pairs with this stock Odin image, If future OTAs use updated PITs, they'll handle that when you upgrade. If you want to download your exact PIT file from your phone*, you can use heimdall to do that, which I mention in this very thread.

DroidStyle's back to stock guide

*: Out of curiousity, that is. Downloading your PIT and then reflashing it with Odin is equivalent to using no PIT/repartition at all w/ Odin.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] denpad2010:
Actually I was talking about the Odin package, I think I have the right pit file, I saw more than one Odin package on Op
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] thepolishguy:
The alternative does not relock your bootloader.

The other file will relock your bootloader.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] evltwn72:
Okay, so I bought a Note 2 that was rooted and unlocked. It's running CleanRom 4.8 with TWRP recovery. Its baseband is I605VRALL4. I have downloaded everything I think I need to return it back to stock. I have Odin3 v3.07, Kies, and I have the pit file downloaded. I downloaded the alternate restore for VRALJRB like droidstyle said to. My problem is this. Odin does not see this file at all. It will see the pit file, but when I open PDA, it can't find the alternate restore file. I downloaded the original file, and Odin sees it just fine. Here's my question. If I try to flash the original file instead of the alternate restore file, will it brick my device or will it flash it just fine but lock the bootloader? I don't mind having a locked bootloader.

edit....I got it figured out. Thanks.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] almo40192:
what did you do to fix it because im having the same problem
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] andrewjt19:
Imnuts were you able to get the ll4 Odin image?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] evltwn72:
I just flashed the original file. It took me from vrall4 back to vraljrb. The original file will lock your bootloader. The alternate is the same file just without a bootloader attached to it. After I was done going through my setup, I was prompted for a software update. That took me to vrall4.

If you want to flash the alternate file, you have to use 7-zip to unzip it. Do that, and Odin will recognize it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] MicaRyanSulc:
For some reason my Internet is very laggy. It was working fine until I flashed the jedi rom(which I flashed multiple times n could not get the play store to work at all). I flashed to mean bean but Internet is still laggy. Should I restore to stock and start over or what....? Please help. Thanks n advance
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] droidstyle:
you should not need to...boot into recovery wipe data and flash a different rom. if your still having errors then its odin time.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] AdamOutler:
[MENTION=552429]imnuts[/MENTION] This is not functioning for me. I'm in a bootloop and wipe data/cache does not work.

Edit: my bad, I stuck the package in "bootloader" rather than PDA. I didn't realize PDA set up different things in certain packages.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] MicaRyanSulc:
i cannot get odin to reconize my phone. im trying to restore it to stock. i have done this a several times in the past and never had a problem... any suggestions . iv tried different cables, reistalling drivers, restarting computer, its definitely in usb debugging mode. dont know what to do. please help
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mike7728:
I had to do a restore on my computer to get my phone to reconnect,probably due to some windows update.after that my laptop was able to connect to my N2
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dmonger11b:
any idea why after accepting the newest OTA my phone became a paperweight? I odin'd back to stock using imnuts' restore and updated to 4.12 and when it tries to boot it flashes Samsung Note II and just keeps looping that. I can't get into the stock recovery or anything. Just Odin but when I try and flash through Odin again it fails.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] papapena25:
The samething happen to a friend of mine. Why did that happen?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] papapena25:
Did you flash the pit file also? My friend didn't and his phone is doing the same as yours. Read pages 16 and 17. Without the pit file your really not 100% stock and I think the new OTA detected it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] BoostedB18C:
If your bootloader is unlocked then that is what happens. You need to use the pit file as well to re lock the bootloader. There is a reason why you are not supposed to accept VZW OTAs once unlocked/jailbroken.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] papapena25:
Any fix for this boot loop? My friends phone was on LL4 rooted and unlocked running beans rom. When the newest OTA came out he used THIS VRALJB restore to stock method but didn't flash the pit file. Everything seemed stock so he OTA up to LL4 after that update was installed and the phone rebooted the newest OTA popped up. He thought at that time he was completely stock so he accepted the newest OTA and when it went to reboot it started flashing Galaxy note 2. We tried this return to stock method again but it fails and the phone cannot boot into stock recovery. Anyone have a clue how to fix this?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] C1audia:
I did the same thing, now my phone just flashes the Galaxy Note 2. :fingers-crossed:

I'll also be waiting for a reply to a fix.

Thank you.

Which Pit file do I use?

I tired ODIN the OP file, but Odin gives me a FAIL. :crying:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] BoostedB18C:
Use the pit file from this thread's OP

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=41537179
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] C1audia:
Thank you for the help.

I was happy to see it was going along, but soon after, I've gotten a FAIL from Odin again. I used the PIT file and the Alternate restore file.

Any other ideas?

[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] link68759:
I have photos upload with "best" quality, and to satisfy my curiosity I manually imported a few of the same pictures via USB. The checksums are different, and so are the file sizes by a few bytes.

I examined the files with a hex editor, and they're identical except the pictures uploaded to skydrive via WP8 have some sort of alphanumeric string appended at the end of the file. in the format --blahblahblah1235367--

After removing the appended data, the checksums of the files are the same.

What could this be? What does the string represent? Any ideas?
[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GoodDayToDie:
Possible explanations:

Identifies the file as a mobile upload (rather than a picture you took with your phone, synced to your PC, then uploaded).

Unique identifier for the specific phone that did the upload.

Identifies that the file is to be maintained at full resolution.

Padding to round the file out to a specific size.

Nothing at all, just a bug in the uploading code.
[HTC One X] shadyy911:
Hi friends,

I recently rooted my HOX, i have been using this device since early may-2012. I recently got an OTA update for Android 4.1.1 & a Sense 4+. So i wanted to know if i can accept the update or will it create complication due to the phone being ROOTED!
[HTC One X] BenPope:
Rooted is fine, but modified isn't.

You'll need stock recovery.
[HTC One X] shadyy911:
well i am still on a stock ROM ,have not used a custom ROM on it.
[HTC One X] skr_xd:
If you have not removed stock apps using titanium or any other means,

And you have cwm or twrp recovery, Flash your corresponding stock recovery and update should work without problem.
[HTC One X] shadyy911:
Will i be loosing my root status if i do the above??
[HTC One X] Vcek:
if you lose root you can simply root it the same way again
[HTC One X] shadyy911:
Thanks for you're replies.I did download the update n tried to install it.every time i do phone boots n goes to RECOVERY MODE and it says cannot load the file or something of that sort.I don't know what to do now.
[HTC One X] BenPope:
Do you have stock recovery or CWM?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] megamaster2:
So I am a college student and I installed my school's profile for wifi so I automatically connect and now I have to have some kind of encryption be it pattern or pin on my phone. Will rooting fix this?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] megamaster2:
Still have a forced lock screen. I rooted and unlocked my phone so can I override this?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] turtle3:
If you're talking about Microsoft Exchange and the requirement for a lockscreen PIN, there is a way around that. I've never heard of a required lockscreen for WiFi logon.

If you added a Microsoft Exchange account for your email, this is likely what caused the required lock screen. A way around this is do buy/download Enhanced Email. I'm not in anyway associated with this app or dev, but it's the only one I've found that works for this. Delete the previous Exchange account you added then add it through Enhanced Email. Whoaloa! No lockscreen requirement and your school email will still push to the phone.

Hope that helps
[Sprint LG Optimus G] megamaster2:
I added my college's wifi profile so I automatically log into their wifi.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] dmcaylor:
Check Settings/Security/Phone Administrators and see if they installed an app to manage your phone. If there is one, and it is checked, just uncheck it. Although this may violate your network agreement with the school. Read the fine print.

---------- Post added at 10:56 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:52 AM ----------

Generally, this is bad advice, although it may be different for student accounts. In a lot of organizations, their email would be suspended and they would likely be terminated. To be fair, so would my suggestion above. YMMV.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] turtle3:
So far I've had no issues. The app satisfies the Exchange requirements at the app level instead of the phone level. I couldn't stand typing in a 6 digit unlock code every time I unlock the screen when only 20% of the time it is for our "secure" email. To each their own, I guess, but I've had no repercussions or account issues thus far.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] megamaster2:

Hi, i have an one x that with high possibility for a exhange of device cause of wlan problems that they cant sort out.

Thinking of getting the one x + ( obviously :P ) - but didnt like the last android update to JB on my hox.

so : is it possible to run the "old" OS on the HOX + if i flash it myself ?

really want to have the "disk drive" "charge only" and "sync" possibilities when connected to USB, and i have XP also so the new MTP protocol is giving me some problems.

thanks
[HTC One X+] skdubg:
no way...
[HTC One X+] gshocknet:
ok, so i shuld stick with the HOX then if i want the old os ..

thanks
[HTC One X+] gshocknet:
just qurious : you know WHY it isnt possible ? as i can see it's just a beefed up HOX ?
[HTC One X+] skdubg:
no sources from HTC.

all drivers, kernels,... must completely rewritten.

and no one is interested in ICS, we need other things like CM10.1, MIUI or Sense with Android 4.2.1
[HTC One X+] AndroHero:
The HOX+ was released with JB. There is no ICS rom for it. If your talking about using a HOX rom, thats also impossible, the HOX+ is not just a beefed up HOX. It uses a completely diffent partition structure, and has a brand new SOC.
[HTC One X+] Lloir:
it MIGHT just be possible actually, but would need a kernel rework, just like it's possible for the one v to run gingerbread... there's no reason for it though, it's more of a "just because it can" :P
