Androidman just install 'efsbackup' from the play store. Is free and it will backup the whole efs partition for you and can then restore it for you if you need to. Doing the whole partition is probably more thorough anyway rather than doing the costs manually

''However when you root the Note 2,

You lose Multi-Window,

You lose a lot of S-pen functionality,

You lose Samsungs 'Motion' controls,

You lose Samsungs Docking functionality,

You lose....A lot more software options that come with Touchwiz, which i can't be bothered listing.

And worst of all you risk losing your warranty and insurance. Though you can unroot it, there's a lot of other measures you have to take to ensure all traces are removed, as there has been a lot of cases where the carrier has found miniscule traces of rooting, and has denied warranty work''

Is that true??
[Galaxy Note II General] dr.ketan:
You won't lose anything by rooting except warranty. That also can be revert. Read sticky roll up in general

'How to keep flash counter 0 on rooted device. '
[Galaxy Note II General] springer5:
Hi Chris

dr ketan is correct. I am new to this and have just recently 'stock rooted' my Galaxy Note 2

All the features you have listed are still available on my device. I have lost nothing at all. In fact I can now install apps which give me more of some of those things. For example I have just installed a 'rooted only' app from the play store which allows me to use multi window feature for every app on my device, not just the few I had in non rooted format.

As stated the only thing you will lose is your warranty.

Rooting my Verizon Galaxy Note 2

Ive tried multiple different ways including "one click and done" and also the "Tool kit" and neither one is working, either the people who made the videos are full of it or they left out a lot of information. supposedly this only takes 5 to 10 minutes but ive been doing it for 4 hours and nothing has worked. ive followed the videos word for word or click for click as with the one click and done that is actually 9 clicks give or take.

so if anyone is in the Decatur area and would to help me out I would greatly appreciate it. the only catch is im not paying someone to do something that supposedly takes between 5 and 10 minutes. at least that's the way its portrayed in the many many videos ive watched.

Inquery?

Alright, it's looking like this thread is abandoned, but I'm going to post my issue anyway.

I'm running Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean, model number SCH-I605 (Verizon), Build JZO54K.I605VRAMC3. That looks like everything important.

I don't expect you to memorize what the toolkit says, but only two options come close to me.

INTERNATIONAL LTE [GT-N7105]

Option 13. Android 4.1.2 [Build JZO54K DLL1]

This option matches 4.1.2, and JZO54K

VERIZON MODEL [SCH-I605]

Option 91. Android 4.1.1 [Build JRO03C ALJB]

This option matches with Verizon and SCH-I605. Since neither applied, 100%, I went through the way you said if I couldn't find my device. However, when I install the drivers, it doesn't detect my device, and automatically apply the installation, but it does if I do either option 13 or 91. And even when it does with 13 and 91, it doesn't read my serial number at the top. Continuing, when Odin 3.0.7 opens, I follow the steps for both 13 and 91, and both, when I click START after loading the PDA, say FAIL at the top left box. Here's the message box

I own an LG Optimus Black KU5900 model (KOREA), so use any rom's, but my banda base remains always the same (V30I.FLS), I wish someone with more experience, explain to me if this has something to do with the battery consumption, because I live in Brazil and I believe that my battery dies faster than you should.

GB = 2% per hour deep sleep

********** 1% - 6 minutes using

ICS = 4% per hour deep sleep

************ 1% - 3 minutes using

CM10/10.1 = 10% per hour deep sleep

*********************1% 2 minutes using

Using = Gplay, Menus, Internet, Gtalk, calls, sms - NO GAMES.

[LG Optimus Black] N00BY0815:
There is something like this for our OB, but it only works up to GB. It's called GetRIL. See here:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/...t=W251bGwsMSwyLDEsImNvbS5zaWJib3IuZ2V0cmlsIl0.

Maybe contact the dev, so he can update it to ICS. It is incompatible there, cause the phone name in build.prop has changed. If you change it back, you should be able to use it again. But there will only be files for cm7, GB and maybe Froyo. You can simply change the lge-ril.so in /system/libs I think, that's all this app does. Take it from your local ROM (just copy it to your harddrive or sdcard) and replace it in the ROM you wanna have it in.
[LG Optimus Black] nostupidthing:
thx... who's going to do it?
[LG Optimus Black] IVANWB:
Oh guys, thanks for the replies, I do not even have understood : Rolleyes:

because you want to be a smarty pants about it, its not actually pure aosp its CM and there is a difference. CM is is different than AOSP just like AOKP is different from AOSP.
