I just finished taking ota since I was rooted and running a custom rom for a long time without taking the ota. I finally took it and updated and tried casual again to reroot and this is the message im getting, it copied it like the op said. thank

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] BoostedB18C:
First off, there was no need to take OTAs if you were running a custom ROM. Second, your anti virus/MSE is killing the exploit.

Looks like your package is corrupt. Redownload. I've never seen that before, but I have an idea of how to address it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] JonandRoid:
Yeah it was some weird permission issue with windows...went in and shared the files with my temp folder and then the java could read and write to the temp folder again..rooted now. Thanks for the awesome program.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] AdamOutler:
Interesting. No write or read access to your system temp? Hrm... I can add that as part of my create temp folder checks.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Flip35:
Thank you, the reason I took the ota was because after a while my wife's phone was messing up real bad and it didn't even want to send pictures or anything and since I saw adam had a new exploit for the new ota I thought it wouldn't hurt me. Was messed up is I KNW BETTER!!! I never take ota and I slipped there. Anyways thank:thumbup:

Any help with my issue?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] nrfitchett4:
Finally got this done late last night, both computer and casual problems, probably because of my computer.

Ended up using version 515 I think from original link. First, of course, make sure all anti virus is turned off. Then go into windows firewall and make sure it's not blocking java, mine was. I still was not able to get the new insta or nightly builds to work, but the old version did.

Thanks Adam for this, donation will be coming.

Never get past "Link Status Disconnected"

I've tried on 2 Windows 7 (x64) machines (desktop and laptop), multiple USB ports (front, back, both sides of laptop and dock locations) and multiple USB cables from different phones (OG Droid, Note2, Nexus 7). I've disabled firewalls and anitivirus. I've tried with and without the Samsung drivers (v 1.5.14.0) installed (BTW, I'm confused that several places on this thread it says not to install the Samsung drivers but the program pops a dialog that says something like "google for android drivers <your device>").

This is from my latest attempt on clean Win7/64 machine desktop.

Thank you Adam for all the work you've put into this project!

this is what i got my 1st time through.

going to try again, ill let you know if anything changes. Thank you for all your hard work!

UPDATE: It appears that Microsuck Security Essentials blocked the action that was taking place in the temp folder when the Casual tool loads.

Reversing the action MSE took on the temp file seems to have done the trick.

Any ideas whats going on here? I have the Virus program off, I have 2 Samsung USB cables and both do the same thing. I have used this to root before and have never had a problem. Here I can't even get started. I disconnects me right as the phone goes into Download mode. Yes I have Debugging ON.

Am I missing something?

Thanks in advance

Edit.....

Well don't need help anymore. ..I traded the Note 2 for an S4.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] talktomike:
First let me say thank you for making something to simplify what can otherwise be a complicated process of rooting a phone. I did however run into a critical error when trying my Note II and hoped you could help. My pastebin code is wnJX3eUv. Apparently it won't let me post the URL because I don't have a history of posts on XDA.

And before it comes up I am running windows 8 but followed the instructions for installing the drivers. Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.

I'm in the heimdall install loop.

I got a question not sure if it's been answered, but is there any advantage over the first or second release of the Note 2's versus the latest release? I ask because I may have to get a replacement from Verizon since my usb port is getting loose. I don't want to get rid of this phone if I know I couldn't unlock the bootloader and run custom. ROM's, recoveries. Thanks in advance.

It still wasn't 100% flawless... i ran into a couple of issues where it stopped going and i'd have to click the Do It! button again and it'd restart from the beginning, but eventually it completed and i now have a rooted note ii with twrp recovery.

Thanks devs!!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] pkopalek:
This is exactly where mine was.

I did a battery pull, booted back into the OS, and ran the tool again (from the beginning) and it all worked.

It may or may not be because I didn't (before running the tool) independently boot into Download Mode and install the Download drivers before I started... I allowed the tool to do the installation.

Win 7 64-bit here.

First Steps...

Good day...

I have tried to fumble my way through the hundreds of posts and now my eyes are crossed and I am still at a loss with an answer to my questions.

I am a Windows user and still have a stock Note 2 - brand new from the big V on January 25th this year. I have downloaded several apps and taken several photos - i would prefer not to lose them if at all possible. First of all, should I take the OTA updates from Verizon? My current baseband is I605VRALJB and the build number is JRO03C.I605VRALJB. I have seen several different builds in Adam's repository...which is the best option? Is this process reversible so I could go back to stock if in the unlikely event I ever wanted to?

What would you do if you were in my shoes?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] chachi:
I'd run casual and unlock, no otas, and jump straight to cm10.2, if bluetooth issues exist for you then instead go with 10.1.3 rc1

Casual failing.

Verizon i605 Note 2 VRAMC3

Casual 515b

Vista 64

Phone in DM : ADB enabled.

Pastbin links:

1st. attempt: http://pastebin.com/zhcg5hAF

This attempt just froze up while saying "protocol initializing"

after failing three times.

No option to choose Samsung drivers. Said I needed drivers

and just opened up command shell and started downloading.

Phone still in "download mode"

After 15 minutes, unplugged phone, cleaned pc cache, cleaned

registry and rebooted. Then uninstalled drivers. (like guide said)

Tried again without pre installing Samsung drivers because

guide said drivers would be installed automatically.

2nd.attempt:

http://pastebin.com/xU61JEmL

Just looped saying "unexpected handshake error" or whatever

the exact wording says.

The looping says, initializing failed (or to that effect)

Need your help,

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] AdamOutler:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] E:V:A:
Can you post more info on what MS Security Essentials "found"? I wonder if this is by chance, or if someone has reported Casual as a malware?? Which file was it?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] BoostedB18C:
CASUAL uses an exploit which Windows recognizes as a "threat" and blocks the action. That is why MSE needs to be disabled while running casual.

Sent From My Sticky Note, Too?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] E:V:A:
What's the point of restating the obvious, unless you're the one who called MS to report this as a malware? Obviously this has nothing to do with the security of Windows and should be called into MS to have them remove it as a threat.

Hey i just want to say that after using this LibUSBk wont uninstall from windows 7 X64. I kept having issues with any samsung device i plugged in not showing up.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] farmdoc:
I think there must be a newer one also.

After my rooted phone lost ability to call in/out and text, I used Odin to install the firmware downloaded from droidstyle's link. While it seemed to restore the phone to stock, it still could not make calls. Baseband version was listed as unknown in settings>about phone. Casual was able to gain root and the phone functioned fine as a tablet using Wi-Fi, just not able to access phone airwaves. I also noted that the internal storage was not displaying properly and there were memory issues with the gallery.

Kies is not compatible with Verizon Galaxy Note II's. So, although the latest firmware is available to some via this route, Verizon does not allow.

"NO YOU VERIZON." :mad:

I finally was able to talk Samsung into re-flashing original firmware. The phone is in TX right now for that purpose.

I do not have the knowledge to tease the firmware back out of the phone, but maybe you do...
