Dr.Ketan , any news on a Pre Rooted Stock for 4.3 based on the official release, without Knox?

Thanks :good:

Pre rooted 4.3 Stock?

Hi Dr.Ketan,

Have been till date using your Pre-rooted ROMs as my mobile is just 6 months old and wanted the warranty for my mobile.

Once i heard that 4.3 for India is released, I am waiting for your pre-rooted MK4 ROM, but i think you were busy.

I did check the other threads by Kunals Shah

1) [Rom][Odin][4.3] N7100XXUEMK4 Knox Free - Non-Wipe

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2531989

IT is NON-ROOTED

2) [ROM][4.3][MK4] Pre-Rooted - Deodexed N7100XXUE

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2533611

It needs Custom Recovery Like CWM/TWRP/Philz, but i don't have a custom recovery.

3) [N7100 MK4][23Nov]Dr.Ketan's Custom ROM V5 Deodexed|Prerooted|Note3 Fs

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2472270

This is a CUSTOM ROM NOT A STOCK ROM.

So my query is, should i wait for a Stock Pre-Rooted ROM, is it not possible to create the same?

If the option is 2, could you recommend me which ROM 1 or 2 or 3 should i opt based on my current ROM status.

Thanks.

Which one applies:

NONE has made a ROM as instructed here, or NONE is willing to share info?

I do not get it!

Hello.

Where the 4.3 MK4 Stock ? On the ROM Repository i've seen a Stock 4.3 prerooted updated today, but i don't found the download link.

I'm too.

I dont see in repository (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/pub?key=0Apatc-TEE7sNdHVUbXBkOHI2X1FhTlBRb1BmTUdBQmc&output=html)

Where the link to Stock 4.3 Rooted (without Knox) please ?

Thanks for attention.

Hey Dr.Ketan,

i installed your prerooted rom from india a while ago, now of yesterday i got trough ota that there was a update (4.3) so i accepted it , did not have to unroot phone just installed it trough the "install later" option where you set the time, phone rebooted and it installed the 4.3 stock from india.

at first i didnt wipe anything and i had the dutch language but then i did factory reset en now i only have enlgish and chinese except fro the keyboard input i can got several language but not the dutch(belgium)

my question is , is it possible to flash stock rom trough odin when it come out for belgium/lux or do i need certain steps to take , cuz i might be selling it to a collegue of mine , and they want dutch system language :)

thnx in advance
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] dr.ketan:
Yes, You can simply download full rom from sammobile when it release and flash with odin.

Hi Dr.Ketan

N7100DDDMG1- Odexed - India

I am using a N7105 Galaxy Note 2.

I was trying to use Odin to flash the above Pre-rooted India ROM to my N7105 but Odin fails and now I am stuck. Tried to flash it again but it still shows "Fail".

Went to Sam.Fimrmware.com to try to download the stock rom for N7105 so that I can try to reflash it, hopefully the "softbrick" will go away. However, seems like all the links using Hotfile is gone right now and I could not download any files from there.

By any change do you have a Original Stock ROM for N7105? Or is the Original Stock ROM for N7100 compatible with my HP?

Would really hope you could help or advise me what I can do to revive my HP.

P9844131
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] jsomby:
N7100 is different hardware than N7105 so roms are NOT compatible. You need to download N7105 Rom and try again with odin/heimdall (or kies).

Hi, I would like to know what is the last rom for note 2 7100 deodexed that is possible to install the last mod (note 3 v6.1) Dr.Ketan.

i suggesting you to make a video guide as possible as you can do !!!

watching videos clears idea more than text files !!

would you like to make receipe by wwatching youtube or buy book and do it as shown in book ??????????
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] dr.ketan:
Recipe may be better with YouTube bcoz ingredients are measured in teaspoon and tablespoonful. Here you have to cook rom (not mobile) with digital codes and can be more convenient with text codes for ctr+c and ctr +v for error free job.

Need Help to Create 4.4 Prerooted,Odex,Knox free ROM

Hi,Dr.ketan, Thanks for the guide. Need some tips/help regarding prerooted stock rom.

I am trying to create Stock,Prerooted,ODEX,KNOX free,Bootloader free, Odin flashable ROM. Curently i have philz_touch_6.26.6-n7100.tar recovery, MJ5 Bootloader with custom DR.Ketan v3 rom.

1)Can i repack only system.img and flash using odin?

2)For kitkat 4.4 ROM, can i use the same 2048M size to repack system.img?

3)If i include recovery.img in the package,will it remove the custom recovery? is it necessary to include this while repacking?

4)Don't wan't the latest bootloader,To avoid bootloader,is it enough to remove sboot.bin and tz.img? There is no param.bin file in the stock image.

5)Do i need modem.bin?

6)I thought of packing only boot.img,system.img,cache.img,hidden.img. Is it ok?Do i need recovery.img and modem.bin?

7)Is it ok to flash by selecting PDA tab in Odin after repacking the above files.

8)I dont want to change MJ5 bootloader and Custom recovery.What .img,.bin files i need to remove/include?

9)Is there any way to check my repacked rom will flash correctly?.Any chance to brick my phone?

10)Can i flash using mobile odin to reduce the chance of bricking.

**Regarding Root:

I copied/followed the instruction from UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.94 and the first page. Is it enough Dr.Ketan?

--Copied Superuser.apk to /app dir. Changed permission to 0644

--Open /etc ,Create init.d directory, copy 99SuperSUDaemon to it. Set permission 0755

--Open /etc ,Copy .installed_su_daemon, install-recovery.sh to it. Set permission 0644 and 0755

--Open /bin ,create .etc directory set permision 0777, copy SU into it, rename to .su,set permission to 06755

--Open /xbin Copy SU,rename SU to demonsu,set permission 0755

--Open /xbin ,copy SU,set permission 06755

Busybox:

--Open /xbin ,copy busybox, permission 0755

Thanks.

[Galaxy Note II Android Development] dr.ketan:
Which ROM you have installed before flashing prerooted? In case it is KK ROM then may failed to flash at sboot.bin
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] devilfromheaven:
Dr.ketan..

I'm now in 4.4.2 stock and having knox in download mode..

Can I straight away flash the latest pre-rooted rom?

Cuz I wan to install a custom rom after root..

Thanks
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] dr.ketan:
It will fail if you flash prerooted on kk rom.

No needs to root for flashing custom rom, straightway flash cwm /twrp and flash custom rom

Any ideas on what to try now?

Thank you in advance.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] kkapoorr:
General stuff to try in this case:

1) Stop KIES from running.

2) Change The USB port you're using.

3) Change the USB Cable you're using.

4) Don't use a USB hub, connect directly.

5) Switch off Internet and try.

Report back here if anything worked/did not work.

-Busybox not included, as i already said in OP and why does we need busybox to root device. Does CF Auto root includes it?

-Regarding su, it is included and find out Cf auto root packge and where chainfire place it.

-Without changing permission SuperSU doesn't work isnt? it's working.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] alexyuh:
Busybox needed for many programs and ADB

I just gave a time-tested method :o

Download my version and see it.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] dr.ketan:
I know very well about busybox, where it needs, whether to include and how.

Thank you but I need not to look to your works.

You can surely fetch some viewership to your thread if you needs by posting it here as you have made it for certain device.

For note2 int (n7100) there is already good work by as i9000 and mentioned in OP.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] aukhan:
Can some body tell me functionality of busy box ?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] dr.ketan:
Busybox is The Swiss Army Knife of Embedded Linux

Busybox is set of programs which allow users to have Unix/Linux utilities in single small executable file, busybox multi-platform and it is made for linux based operating systems.

Busybox allows you or programs to perform actions on your phone using Linux commands. Android is basically a Linux OS with a Java compatible (Dalvik) machine for running programs. The Android kernel is a modified version of the Linux kernel. Busybox gives functionality to some application to work it.

In normal use few applications needs it separately, some applications like titanium backup itself having it's own busybox.

I recommend to install busybox only if your any application demand for that.

You can simply install it from play store, but i don't recommend for that, as sometimes it mess up when you need to uninstall it.

I recommend to flash busybox just with CWM OR If you have stock recovery then just use mobile odin to flash busybox flashable zip

[Galaxy Note II Android Development] alexv396:
Do you recommend full wipe before install prerooted room? Thank you.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] dr.ketan:
Not just prerooted but, when you update major update, I do recommend clean install.

But after all it's individual choice, you can update it, and if you find some lag you can wipe after updating too.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] alexv396:
I em not gone loose root after full wipe prerooted roo

m?Thank you.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] dr.ketan:
wiping doesn't erase root.

You can safely wipe it without loosing root.

Good to see not used hotlink its dam slow ,if i flash this rom n flash a 3rd party kernel will the binary show custom an counter will raise ?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] McLaren__F1:
if you flash any 3rd party kernel it will raise binary counter
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] cargobr151:
If you have a rooted rom flashed, then use mobile odin from Chainfire, for flash other kernel or so...

This will the counter not crease.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] dr.ketan:
It's not true.

Mobile odin won't raise but custom kernel itself do.

Presence of any custom recovery or kernel will noticed by bootloader and will raise counter irrespective of method you have used to flash it.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] dr.ketan:
Glad to know

it's now >200 downloads for prerooted ROM.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] cargobr151:
Oh sorry my mistake, i meant no

more

counter increase. Of course, the counter is incremented when a custom kernel or recovery is flashed (but only one count). If, for example flashed a custom recovery and then install something via Mobile Odin or CWM, the counter does not count on. I had thought that ... Sorry
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Dude_Virus:
Hi

If i just update via the software update , I am sure I would loose root so in that case will the CF auto root help ...?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] dr.ketan:
Yes, you can reroot with cf auto root in such case.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Dude_Virus:
The only thing is that with triangle away i need to go ahead and keep the system workaround to keep the status as normal. BTW any info as to when are we getting 4.2.2 for the note 2. I was hoping this would be a 4.2.2 release.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] dr.ketan:
After flashing prerooted rom just clear data for SysScope and enterprise sysscope with titanium backup and reboot, it should be normal. No need to use triangle workout for that, I have flashed indian prerooted rom since I have posted and still status is normal. There are rumors, 4.2 may appear in may end
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Dude_Virus:
I am not flashing the prerooted rom as i dont have the cable with me at the moment but I am connected to EDGE so i can download the update. It seems the update was just made available for india because until 4 hours ago when i click on software update it gave me a msg that " I have the latest update already installed" and now a couple of minutes back it showed me a 50 mb update. For some reason the clear data of sysscope and enterprise syscope doesnt work for me. I have tried that multiple times after resetting the counter via triangle away but it doesnt work , the system status stays modified. So i enabled that workaround in triangle away.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] dr.ketan:
Triangle workout basically freeze sysscope, so you before clearing data make sure sysscope is not frozen.

Anyway it's not issue how you set it normal, follow one which work for you.

Once your device is rooted, OTA always weired, though you can download but still it may fail to install.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Dude_Virus:
Ok just updated the ROM via software update and the root is still intact. :) The update didnt affect the root so no extra steps needed.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] dr.ketan:
Lucky :)
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Dude_Virus:
Yeah it seems I was lucky but its strange that my friends device was not lucky. Doing the same process on his device resulted in a no boot. Seems there might be something else on his device which might have obstructed the OTA update.

So now the only way to recover would be to flash the prerooted or the original non rooted via ODIN... ?

Any other option to get it to boot before i flash as there is no backup taken...?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] dr.ketan:
Though flashing prerooted rom won't erase data, but sometimes needs wipe if post flashing ends with bootloop.

You can nandroid backup and later restore individual data with titanium.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Dude_Virus:
For that then I will have to install CMW on the device first...My friend doesnt want the CMW he just wants a rooted device.

---------- Post added at 04:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:43 PM ----------

Now this was strange , i flashed CMW and then took backup and just for a try i wiped cache and dalvik and the phone actually booted successfully and when i checked the settings about device it shows me the new C3 build. But along with that I got an error message that upgrade failed to install use Kies.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] dr.ketan:
It may be partial, better go with flashing full rom

You can select prerooted

Reset counter and restore data.

Do same for enterprise sysscope

Reboot

Ive did it but it still shows modified... :/

btw i got an error -> bash: ./simg2img: File or directory (and ive cd'd to the place of the img)
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] dr.ketan:
Sometimes you need to wipe cache and data to make status official.

Make sure IMG file and smg2img path is properly

Or keep everything in home folder and command same as in op.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] AskinSavascisi:

Ive finally did it good :DD

[Galaxy Note II Android Development] radguy:
My experience: I tries this on a 1 day old phone. I rooted it then later I did not want to keep resetting the counter. That's just me.

I have Kies on my PC, & so I thought that I have all the correct drivers installed and everything.

I tried flashing the pre-rooted rom through Odin, but I got a failed Status. Recovery was corrupted too. How nice, a soft brick.

Then I tried loading the stock ROM. Failed AGAIN!!!

I was still stuck with a soft bricked phone.

Then, I moved to the Laptop, downloaded the USB drivers (No Kies on the Laptop), copied the ROM & Odin to my laptop & flashed it again.

It WORKED!!

Something must be up with the Kies drivers. For anyone who has the Kies Drivers, just a note of caution!!

Thank you Dr. Ketan! You are a rock star!
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] dr.ketan:
Kies is known obstacle for odin.

driver shouldn't be issue, but if kies running in background then odin will fail to flash.

other common causes includes

-USB port, Note2 doesn't work on older USB 1.0 port (you can connect, but odin will fail)

-Anti virus

-Firewall
