U can get the latest firmware from Sammobile.com (as per ur region ) and flash it via Odin (for windows ) ..but u wll lose root while doin so!!#

U can reroot it via a finally safe method ie.Flash CF AUTOROOT file, then SuperUser spp will show force closes; no worries, without opening it first update it via Play store and u r good to go; it asks to disable Knox and agree..

OR, flash a custom pre'-rooted rom for fun,U can check for method to root phone without increasing Knox counter via Google (yah..it helps)%

DittoNote3 rom and Dr.Ketans are good roms provided u wanna play wid ur innocent phone! Njoy

N7105 on three uk

hi there I'm hoping you can give a bit of advice. I used to have an HTC sensation and flash custom rom on that all the time but I'm new to flashing on the note 2.

I've been hanging on for Three UK to release 4.3 but this looks like it might be months away. I've read up on how to use odin to root and install custom recovery.

where I am concerned is that I'm thinking of flashing dn3 and it mentions flashing the 4.3 baseband.

how do I know what is correct one for my phone (and also radio)?

thanks glenn

current stock settings:

model number GT-N7105

android version 4.1.2

3 file TGY Stock Rom for N7100

Hi [MENTION=4900679]Chayangkul99[/MENTION],

I've been trying to unroot and triangle away my N7100. I also tried installing the stock TGY ROM after unrooting. Things look good : the flash counter is reset, system status is Samsung ofiicial.

BUT, once I factory reset my phone, the binary flash counter goes to 1 and system status changes to custom.

Why is this? I have been using the single file TGY ROM from Sammobile. Will things change if I use a 3 file ROM?

Would you happen to have a link to a 3 file TGY stock ROM?

I searched around, but couldn't find any.

Thank you very much in advance.

Cheers,

Flashing UK firmware on to Chinese phone

I hope this is the correct place to ask this question. I think I got ahead of myself and tried to do something that maybe I should have paid someone to do for me... I bought my note 2 in China and didn't like that it has a lot of Chinese applications and no google play store or the like. I also wanted it to work properly when I came back to the UK, so I decided to try to flash the UK firmware to my device using these guides: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1896696 and http://reviews.cnet.co.uk/mobile-ph...e-2-from-rooted-to-factory-settings-50010623/

However, I failed at the stage:

"4. Start downloading binary file into the device by clicking Start Button on the screen.

the green colored "PASS!" sign will appear on the upper-left box if the binary file

has been successfully downloaded into the device."

I received a FAIL in the box, which happened right at the end of the process. Should I not be using this guide to change my region settings from China to the UK? I haven't actually only recently purchased this phone, I had it from China last year and had someone in the UK flash this correctly for me and I paid for it and it worked fine until the SDS and I had to get it fixed under warranty in China. Does anyone have any help or has experienced similar? Sorry for being so noob at this!

I tried a few times with the same result each time. Now if I start the phone it says:

"Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies and try again."

Need Help Carrier Unlocking SCH-R950 ( US Cellular Galaxy Note 2 )

I am trying to carrier unlock a US cellular branded Galaxy Note 2 ( SCH-R950 ).

I have tried lots of things, none of which have worked.

At the moment, I am back to a 4.1.2 stock international firmware and stock recovery but the phone reboots itself every few minutes.

Could someone PRETTY PLEASE direct me to a stable firmware download that I can install that will let me carrier unlock this phone or give me advice/directions on how to do so?

To date there is no method to remove Knox Triggering. That is the toughest security of all time. Anyhow you cannot root your phone without triggering Knox Counter.

---------- Post added at 08:05 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:01 AM ----------

Yes you can flash 4.3 again, 4.3 has an upgraded bootloader, which can not be downgraded easily. Custom roms does nothing with bootloader. They use the same bootloader as it has before, so don't be confused with bootloader theory. Try it and share the results.

---------- Post added at 08:11 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:05 AM ----------

You have a serious problem with your phone.

Search Xda using keywords "pit partition for GT-N7100".

There is a guide associated with pits. Better try that.

If that doesn't help, Motherboard replacement could only be the solution.

Good luck. . . . . . . . . .

---------- Post added at 08:17 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:11 AM ----------

The reason they suggest using CWM Recovery is that CWM Recovery is easier than TWRP in a way that it mostly resembles Stock Android recovery and is also updated very rapidly.

I personally never had any problem with flashings using TWRP recovery.

So its worth a try.

Better try it and share the results.

Question About a Clone...

So I bought what I thought was a Note II on ebay but it ended up being a clone...

Here are the specs:

Model Number: F7102

Android Version: 4.2.2

CPU: MT6572

Baseband Version: MOLY.WR8.W1315.MD.WG.MP.V4.P3, 2013/08/05 17:01

Kernel Version: 3.4.5 ser4@ser4-System-Product-Name #1 Wed Dec 4 16:20:10 CST 2013

Build Number: 0502J015_2013204

I successfully managed to root it using two tools. One was SRSRoot and the other was Impactor. I had to use the latter because for some reason the binary installed but it failed to obtain root access. Then when I used Impactor and hit start. I succeeded in gaining root privileges. Here's the thing. I know enough to tinker with ROMs as I have been doing for a while with my Samsung Galaxy S 4G, but I decided to upgrade because I wanted a bigger screen and ended up with this clone after not reading the fine print. Now that that is that, I just want to make the best of my situation and share my experience with others so they may avoid this and/or to see if perhaps the clone itself could be looked into. The thing is I don't know what ROMs (if ANY) that would be compatible. I don't even know where to start so I was just hoping someone could point me in the right direction because I actually like the clone so far. I just don't like the idea of flashing random ROMs on it and potential bricking. Any and all help is much appreciated. Thank you for simply taking the time to read all of this. I truly appreciate even that because I know that time is precious.

P.S. Forgive me if I posted in the wrong area I would still consider myself a nOOb, but I have been cracking away at my Galaxy S 4G amongst others for some time now so I'm not completely ..well.... you know what I mean.
