Unroot and Bring Back to Stock

Hello everyone...my wife is currently running lab rats 3.0 on MC2 on her Sprint Note 2, she wants to unroot and bring everything back to complete stock so she can get the 4.3 OTA that Sprint just released. Can someone point me in the right direction of how to unroot and bring back to stock so I can get her the new OTA update??

Also, she is addicted to the Tetris Blitz game and she has a really high score and she doesn't want to lose her score and her saved data. I know titanium back up is for root but is there a way to save the game data and once she is back to stock restore it so she doesnt lose any of her scores or saved game data?

Thank you all so much for your help! Have a great day!

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jangbang88:
Thank you! I do have a question though...for some reason her phone cant see her SD card...it doesnt show up and then when you try to mount it nothing happens. I have tried switching to a couple different kernels and stuff but nothing seems to work, any suggestions?? She has a lot of pictures and stuff on the card that she doesnt want to lose.

Also, will this way erase all of her game data?? Is there a way to save the game data??

Again, thank you so much for all your help!

Best Rom I've used in the past 4 years

:good: Honestly...great job on this rom!:good:

I've used a dozen and never felt compelled to post, but I just installed this yesterday and love the unlimited customizations. I really appreciate the fact that I can use my beloved Eagle Globe and Anchor (U.S.M.C.) icon as my service provider's.

I love the Rom and will most likely stay with it for awhile to come!

Thank you :)

Hey guys. I updated to the newest ROM and I lost the touchwiz favorite contacts widget (4x4). Any idea where I can grab one? Thanks

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] cbucz24:
It is going to take a complete rebuild from scratch.

As I don't have this phone anymore either, does this update look just like the 4.3 that the n3 has?

Tabbed settings..dropdown toggle expanded, etc? If so, it may be easier since we have this on Tmobile now.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] ColeTrain!:
Here is a question for you.. Why can't we use a note 3 ROM on this phone? Are you still sprint? You would need to put in a 2 kernel due to processor speed, right? Is there just a ton of stuff I am unaware of? Lol
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] fryingpan0613:
You can't use Builds with other phones like that, or else the n2 would have seen 4.2 from the s4 and now 4.3 from the n3. Too many changes between devices and Android versions.

Just a quick question.. Do I need to do anything special for the hotspot?? I was trying to get it to connect last night.. I couldn't seem to get the computer to connect.. And secondly, can I flash another boot animation? I have one I usually use and wanted to throw it on if I could..

Thanks
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] cbucz24:
Yes you can flash one, check romtoolbox. That has a bunch of animations.

As for the hotspot, not sure if it's working right for u or not but if it's the first time use...

Go into settings first and turn it on there and connect. After that it should work fine.

Nice. I figured it wouldn't take long. So would you have any recommendations as to locations I can find some reading for tweaking, mods, themes, etc. Ive always had fun with photoshop, guess I'll have to learn gimp.

Re: [ROM]{Team Nocturnal}(MA7) Lab Rats ROM 2.0 (2/16)

I have learned my lesson, I'm not rushing to be the first rom of a new base again. Sorry, it will be fixed in 2.1! I thought I had fixed it when a tester told me it had that but I guess I put in the wrong file.

Edit: apparently sprint thinks they are special and moved the boot ani sound. The file I added was were it normally pulls from. Sorry about that, we know for future reference!

Just tried to flash it again and had to do another nandroid.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] wackydroid:
Your terminology's a bit confusing - a Nandroid is a backup on a rooted phone done in a custom recovery like TWRP or CWM. Are you saying it screwed the pooch so bad you had to do a RESTORE from a previous nandroid?

Sounds like you've been having to do battery pulls to get it running again. Try lowering top speed to 1800, not 1960. I've found very few phones run well at maximum speed...

:cool:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] wascapsfan:
I backed up this rom before I tried to flash the 45.3 kernel. When it failed and refused to start, I had to go in and restore my backup.

I didn't "screw" anything. I flashed the kernel and it locked up the phone twice.

I restored my original labrats and it is variable between 200 and 1600. I never had a chance to raise anything because the kernel didn't take
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] wackydroid:
Wasn't saying you did anything intentionally...

Kinda odd that kernel not only doesn't work well for you, but locks it up.

I'm sure you cleared cache and Dalvik after flashing kernel, before rebooting, yes?

Another one of those odd, works on some not on others kinda things...

So, if I read Lorjay's [linked] thread right, in order to get the MK4 modem and have it work well with this ROM [LR4.1] I have to:

Do a full Nandroid of LR4.1 in TWRP

Use his method and return to his stock ROM (rooted or unrooted, evidently)

Update to MK4

Return to recovery, do a full wipe

Restore my backed up LR4.1

Is this right? Are there such fantastic improvements in the new radio so as to make it worth all this brain damage, as opposed to just keep on using the amazing LR4.1/MC2 until the ROAs bless us with an update?

I'm always amazed when things work for some Note 2s but not others...

I wiped cache and dalvik and flashed ONLY the MK4 zip and for the last 4 days my reception has been MIND BOGGLINGLY GOOD here in Los Angeles! Updated PRL and Profile immediately after flashing, rebooted, and ALL reception is at least 1 bar higher, even wifi. And I'm getting blazing 4G everywhere in town, even in places I had no bars or only 1... (so I get the feeling this radio update addresses a lot of the 4G issues folks have been having).

Hopefully it's that the radio improved my service and not that Sprint changed the way reception is reflected in the service (showing the signal stronger though it really isn't...).

I've said it before and [now] I'll get to say it again - I am constantly amazed at how supposedly identical equipment can respond SO differently to certain mods...

I've used Saber 3.0.97/4.53 for over a month with this ROM (4.1) and, until 3 days ago, the MC2 radio. And have not had one single issue since upgrading to the MK4.

Weird, but verrrrry interesting....

:eek:

ColeTrain - a thought: were you using an app (I use SetCPU) to overclock your previous kernel above 1800? Try lowering speed to stock (1680 I think) then re-installing the kernel, then overclocking after it's installed... I have had problems on my Note2 with EVERY kernel I've tried if OC'd past 1800...
