SAMSUNG GALAXY NOTE 2 TOOLKIT AUTO UPDATE V4.0.0 [27TH MARCH 2013] AVAILABLE!!

Changelog:

+Updated complete Toolkit structure for easier support and faster updates

+Added GT-N7100T and GT-N7105T models to the support list

+Added 4.1.2 support for many models. See below image for full list

+Updated CWM and TWRP Recovery to the latest model specific version

+Added TWRP NAND backup/restore procedure to backups section

+Updated SuperSU Root procedure to V1.25

+Updated Samsung usb drivers to 1.5.18.0

+Added more error detection and updated many parts of the Toolkit procedures

+Added Activation option and support procedure for new builds to Model Screen

+Updated Stock firmware download section with new Samsung images

+Updated mods section

Model specific Boot and Recovery files are now downloaded after the Model/build has been selected. This means that you no longer have to download files for a model you do not own (which for 12 supported models would be a huge download size). This also makes it much easier to add support for new builds as the model file can be updated and uploaded on an individual basis. If for some reason you cannot download the model file from the Toolkit then you can grab it from http://goo.im/devs/mskip/toolkit/galaxy_note2/model_files and extract the files to the relevant folders.

As this is such a major update for the Note2 Toolkit I will let the Professional Version users test it for a day to make sure everything is working as I cannot test it on all variants. In the meantime I will start building the Public Version and if everything is ok I will release V4.0.0 to everyone Friday morning.

[Auto Updates are only accessible if you have donated to the Toolkit project, received an activation code and unlocked the professional features. Auto Updates are a much faster and easier way of pushing small updates that would otherwise not be worth doing. I can push a single textual change or add support for a new build without having to go through the whole process of building a full version and uploading a large file. IF you are not able to or do not want to donate to unlock the Auto Update feature (and other professional features) then all the smaller updates are collated and a full build made when I have time or if there are enough updates to warrant it. This is the easiest way to make sure all the Toolkits are as up to date as possible. IF you have any views about this please pm me about them and do not post in the open thread]

And with that said...I'll gladly wait until the weekend to root and begin modding my shiney new note 2. (have the 4.1.2....UCAMA4 build also)...

Meanwhile, I'll get my donation ready to go..

I cant thank you enough for this great tool, It's akin to the root tools that ATTN1 created for the HTC products, and wow...I dont really think most users can fully appreciate a tool package like this. (no dis-respect intended to anyone, but this is a big deal)...

It's a thing of beauty, and worth far more than I'm able to pay.

The weekend is gonna be sweet.....THANK YOU !!.......g

Edit: Donation complete, thanks Mark....g

Where is the 4.0 update link, my buddy has the new ATT build that the 4.0 supports.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] gregsarg:
Don't know. ..

I've donated and not received any code yet.

2 day's ago now.

Perhaps Mark is just busy. I'm going to send an email. ...g

Anyone been brave enough to root the new build ( AMA4 ) yet with this?

I have done a factory reset on my rooted AT&T Note 2, and it is now back on 4.1.1 UCL5 or whatever build that was(don't have the phone with me so I'm not quite sure of the build), and I do not see that particular build in the toolkit, is it okay to select the 4.1.1 ALJ2 build to unroot my device and reflash the stock recovery img?

SAMSUNG GALAXY NOTE 2 TOOLKIT AUTO UPDATE V4.1.5 [15TH APRIL 2013] AVAILABLE!!

Changelog:

+Updated CWM and TWRP Recovery to latest available versions for all variants

+Added SHV-E250L Korean LG U+ variant to support list

+Added GSM GT-N7100 [build DMC3] support

+Added LTE GT-N7105 [build DMC3] support

+Added ATT SGH-I317 [build AMA4] support

+Fixed adb procedures [backup, install] not working with insecure boot image flashed

Models fixed so far are GT-N7100, GT-N7105, SPH-L900, SGH-T889, SHV-E250L [The rest will follow soon]

+Updated several procedures in main Toolkit code

If your model has the fixed insecure boot images to allow adb backup and adb install without having to flash back the stock boot image then after the Auto Update has installed your model boot images will be deleted from the root folder so the new images can be downloaded.

If you cannot get or do not want to update to the professional version with Auto Updates then you can download the latest CWM Recovery image for your model from http://www.clockworkmod.com/rommanager and TWRP images can be found at http://teamw.in/project/twrp2 You can convert .img files to .tar via the Toolkit and then flash via Odin.

Thanks for the updates.

I have the AT&T SGH-i317

I am getting the insecure boot image issue. Can't wait for an update.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] peterhq:
Hi All -

Wonder if someone could help me i'm a bit loss, on the how to update the lastest ATT OTA. i've rooted my N2 using toolkit v3.0.0 w/ "ALLINONE" option. How do i update to the latest update from ATT. i currently have 4.1.2 ALK7. and everytime i tried to update OTA it would boot into TEAMWIN and i'm lost there.

How do i proceed from there, or do i need to unroot to default(how do i do that) then OTA the update, then re-reroute.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm currently running toolkit 4.1.0 which has ALK7 build.

Thanks,

:=peter
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] nickfar2000:
You have a couple options; you should be able to find the update around here somewhere in .zip format and then you could just flash it with TWRP, or if you can only find the .tar file then you could purchese "mobile odin pro" from the playstore and select the .zip or .tar update file and make sure you check the ever root option so you keep root. OR if you are dead set on the OTA, then yes you will eithier need to "return to stock" or another option I have heard of is just simply using your SU app to temp unroot, after your phone reboots it will give you like three minutes to try to take the OTA, and will keep root through the OTA, pretty sure you have to have the Pro version to be able to keep root though, also I am pretty sure you need to be running a stock TW rom for that option. Good luck

***Edit*** Here are some links with detailed step by step instructions on how to temp unroot to take the OTA with Voodo, hope this helps

I tried it but did not work. How do i remove Team Win Recovery and re-install after the update? Thanks =:)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] d_phekt:
This thing does not want to download... Have had it downloading for over an hour and has 2 hours left. Keeps stalling.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] kevwo:
Is it just me, or is there no link for the 4.1.5 update of the toolkit? It's been like in every forum.

When toe toolkit tries to download the required boot and recovery images, it says the sources can not be located from the 3 sources. any suggestions?

I picked option 62 for Model.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] peterhq:
To get the 4.15 update, launch the toolkit and there's an option for you to say "yes" or "no" to update to a latest version, but you'll need to donate to get the update.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] kevwo:
Thanks for the info! is 4.1.5 the only i can root my version of the phone then? It cant seem to download the sources
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] penpen72:
Is the updater broken? Wanting to install 4.1.5 and it starts but drops the connection. Yes, I have the pro version. Thanks

Error Occured

I ran with Option 52 for my ATT N2.

It downloaded the images and then it says "Stock boot image found" and "Insecure Boot Image Found".

Then I simply get "Error Accured".

UPDATE: Tried this a couple of times and on the 4th try it worked.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] varem:
I got this same error
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] wherestheanykey:
I just updated and got the same thing exactly. It said to try again later or seek help in the forum. I ran it again and when I chose my AT&T MA4 number 52, it didn't do any download this time and just loaded the Main Menu, but it says "SGHI317 4.1.2 ALK7" at the top even though I selected number 52 for Build AMA4. So it seems as though my toolkit isn't working correctly. Anyone else seeing this? When you choose 52 do you get the correct build shown at the top of the page? Do I need to uninstal the whole thing and reinstal at this point?

Error

I did number 52 for my ATT note2. Trying to restore factory image. Gave me a genric error then exited. And advice?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Shooper:
@ mskip have you thought of adding an EFS backup/ restore tool to your toolbox? Or would that be to difficult. It's something I've had troubles in the past getting EFS backup tools to work properly so I thought I'd ask. Your Toolkit is awesome big thanks for that.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] PrinceMS:
So toolkit is not valid anymore? I tried couple of times to Root + Recovery flashing and it didn't work.

Had to download new ODIN and latest TWRP separately and rebooted directly into recovery. When I choose reboot option in recovery it says if I should disable "stock recovery flashing on boot". I answered yes and now I have root - before Toolkit was being weired (phone not found / file not pushed / ... / errors).

I tried the S3 version and that worked really well back in the day
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] whitetiger_0603:
so, I rooted through Odin, not the toolkit. And now i'm trying to flash TWRP with the toolkit, but it keeps saying waiting on USB Debugging to be enabled. I have it enabled. Triple checked to make sure. Sitting in Odin mode right now and it says custom Binary and Custom System Status.. All the Drivers are installed, otherwise i wouldn't have been able to root, yet the phone doesn't show up in my comps' Devices section. Also tried different USB ports. Any advice would be much appreciated. Thanks!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] adgj533:
Hii guys I really need some help. I used the odin method given in this video:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NFHZ535L7is to root my phone. but im using note 2 with 4.1.2 software. so this method gave me root but no cwm. the screen shuts off when I try to go to recvoery and sometimes it just goes to the stock recovery, i tried to flash it 10 times same thing happen. What I did was first put in download mode then flash. my baseband version is l317UCAMA4.build number also almost same ends with UCAMA4. I havnt donated yet but please I can do it. Someone help me, the toolkit doesnt have me baseband version and theres an updated one. what should i do

If i use the toolkit to root and get cwm, is it safe and will I get root and recovery? I did not use this recovery to root first. Any help is greatly appreciated. because its kinda scaring me when I try to go to CWM, i feel like flashes in a glitchy way.

Thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] goofy22:
I tried multiple times still getting the same error
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] rhaneyjr:
Can't you just flash Twrp thru goo manager?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] jwgallardo:
I got the same error. Even selecting #52 it showed version ALK7. I continue the process and my phone seems to be correctly rooted and working ok. It may be just a problem of naming. FWIW.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] wherestheanykey:
I got an answer from mskip about th version showing ALK7. He said that "sometimes different builds have the same (or very similar) boot image included and the ALK7 and AMA4 build use the same image, so that is why the ALK7 image was downloaded when you selected option 52. Everything will work fine for AMA4 using the ALK7 image." He intends to fix the text on the next update.

I don't know anymore details regarding the initial error some of us are getting.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Xenocide83:
Goo refuses to let me download any files. I have been trying for days and have been getting nothing but errors. Any way to have the download posted to another site?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Valkillmore:
I was using an older version of the toolkit and I think I accidentally flashed a Rogers image to my Bell phone. I noticed that my app drawer has Rogers bloat in it and the image I flashed had

--RWC-- in the filename.

"Samsung-Updates.com-SGH-I317M-RWC-I317MVLBMA3-1359000955"

With my inexperience in Odin I overlooked this. I have since updated the toolkit to 4.1.0 and tried using this image from Samsung-Updates, via the Toolkit's browser routing. Made sure it was the bell one.

http://hotfile.com/dl/192919163/5e6...SGH-I317M-BMC-I317MVLBMA3-1359000955.zip.html

but flashing it will not remove the Rogers stuff. I am trying to completely unroot and stock this phone so I can send it in but I worry having Rogers apps on my Bell phone might be a dead giveaway .

The device is no longer "modified", the Android version is 4.1.2, the baseband matches my brand new Bell Note II (I317MVLBMA3), the build number matches my brand new Note II (JZ054K.I317MVLBMA3), but the kernels are different And of course, I still have the Roger's stuff in my drawer. LOL

Not sure where to go from here. No matter what I try I end up with Rogers stuff in my app drawer and homescreen. Am I completely missing something or does the toolkit default to Rogers somehow.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] mskip:
Flashing a Stock Rom via Odin will not format the userdata partition which may be why all the bloatware from your previous flash has remained. Try booting into recovery and perform a full wipe. It will put your device back to an out of the box state but should get rid of any left over bloatware.

I totally overlooked this fact !!!!, and I apologize for not clueing in earlier.

Thank you kindly MSkip. I greatly appreciate your reply and the work you do for the community. I did eventually manage to figure this out, doing pretty much exactly as you describe, and I apologize for not letting you know that I had. I just got so busy with reading and diving into the device.

Again, thanks MSkip. I have since managed to get stock firmware on, removed my binary count and such and the device is on its' way for repair.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] rayoubi:
I have used this toolkit countless times. I totally love it. However I went to reinstall it today and connected to a server to download the needed files. it said an error has occurred. Then it closed out. When I re-run the the toolkit it starts to work. but when I need to flash somthing it gets stuck saying make sure you have debugging to continue. Which it is and my phone is plug in and its still not working. im even in download mode.....
