@ shabbypenguin bro bbuild.prop stock recovery and i also adding now stock boot img, hope u can now do something for us:(

Here is stock boot img
[Galaxy Grand 2 General] shabbypenguin:
https://mega.co.nz/#!cAZgkaiJ!llOPPqII-x2kYq6ntJYWZikCtapJDkFxHIUx-lLPu7A here is stock recovery in an odin flashable tar for anyone that may need it.

here are two test CWM's, lets find out which one boots.

Test 1 (default)

Test 2

this post is for development purposes, if you dont know how to use odin dont ask. it would also be good if i had someone who knew how to use adb so that they can pull logs for me if needed. once its working well enough ill post a guide, but there is no need for people to clutter up the thread asking how to use this when we dont even know if it works.

Ah seems you guys really do have a locked bootloader. write protection is nothing new they had it on the s3 stuff it doesnt mean what you think, but the secure boot seems to be something to let you know its locked. reach out to designgears to get root via system.img hack, once you have root you can reach out to hashcode and get safestrap recovery. sorry but there is nothing else i can do

I seriously we all are just a user small devs.. we dont understand or know this kind of rooting process. . and seriously we dnt have dev also who can help... thats why I force u sorry for that again.. but please help bro.. I u tell I can also provide u System. img for find.. hope u understand
[Galaxy Grand 2 General] shabbypenguin:
there is no unlocking the bootloader, i never once mentioned that. i said to ask [MENTION=2348906]designgears[/MENTION] if he would be so kind as to use system.img and root you guys. once you have root you can then beg hashcode for safestrap recovery. take my word, if i could help i would just for the sake of my ego, but i cant.

Try this rooting method

http://androidcubes.com/root-samsung-galaxy-grand-2-sm-g7102/
[Galaxy Grand 2 General] mlm1102003:
dont use this method

it will soft break your device
[Galaxy Grand 2 General] vrushabh sutar:
look,

there isnt much easy way(for this phone) rather than flashing pre-rooted firmware...

as the Qualcomm is using SE technology (Security Enhanced)

you may have noticed the option in the about phone menu at the bottom said: SE for Android status "permissive"

this means that bootloader will permit the changes done by user but the changes must be reverted back to normal before restarting the phone...

suppose somehow we bypassed system and made changes

the Factory service will start monitoring each and every thread and process...

and it will make a log of it.

That log will be saved in kernel heap

so if phone is restarted by you, it will compare the differences in boot and will result in either boot loop or softbrick (not hard brick)

press thanks if this post helped you :)

First Timer on Rooting, help

Hello Grand 2 users, I just purchased my Grand 2 last Friday and would like to root it.

This might be a stupid question but please bare with me as I'm a first timer on this.

I was reading Balliboxer's thread and noticed that the system details which he posted was a bit different from mine.

Balliboxer's System details:

G7102ZTUANC1

PDA: G7102ZTUANC1

Mine says:

G7102DXUANB1

Will the firmware that Balliboxer made work for my device?

Thank you in advance!
[Galaxy Grand 2 General] inamie:
You can flash any version to your phone.. Dont use that one(C1).. it meant for taiwan only.. may not work on some region.. you can use b3 or wait new mod in few hour by balliboxer.
[Galaxy Grand 2 General] eg6racer:
Thank you, will wait for the new mod then. Are you able to tell me from which region is mine (B1)?
[Galaxy Grand 2 General] inamie:
Asian region, can check on sammobile... due to free space constrain.. aftet flashing B3, we cannot flash csc thru odin.. need to copy manually to suit our region.. hopefully new mod with bigger system space or 1780MB as default..

I use the Moga Hero, replacement to the original Moga Pocket... its a smaller version of the Moga Pro Power. It works great, very happy with mine. Bought it for $39 about a month ago.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] in50mn14c:
I've been perfectly happy running 4.1.2 Stock and custom rooted and frozen, and now Verizon is trying to force the 4.3 OTA down my throat. I'm looking to upgrade to match the current build numbers and firmware and run under the radar of Verizon. Anyone have any suggestions/experience on methods to obtain my goal while patching on top of my current system just like an OTA would do? Also which rom/OTA rework would you recommend?

TL;DR - Anyone have any advice on how to dirty flash 4.3 over 4.1.2 without corrupting everything? (Just like OTA, but minus locking the bootloader and being verizon'd again)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] palmbeach05:
Reference locked thread below about what happens to threads like this. Also, learn how to search for your answer instead of asking for it. I may be on here to try helping a friend out with a locked bootloader (4.3, yeah, he was an idiot for that), but i know there are options for ppl like you who are still on 4.1.2. Go actually search for the answer and wait for this thread to be closed.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] in50mn14c:
Yeah, hold on while I search every parse through 30+ pages on each rom thread to see if I can get away with a dirty flash rather than just asking if anyone has had any luck dirty flashing. Your attitude is the exact opposite of what XDA used to be. Rather than being a jerk why don't you actually help out and at least be constructive and helpful instead of flaming?

Rather than take my reply as something negative which it was far from being, why don't you take it as constructive criticism, actually read what i said, and try to use what i said to better yourself. remember, you have 11 posts, which means you are still a relatively new xda noob. you want to get butt hurt over you being advised by a sr member giving constructive criticism?
