[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dylanaw:
Hello there,

I'm new to this forum, also i'm totally new to 'rooting'.

I want to root my Samsung Galaxy Note 2 (GT-N7105, 4.3 jelly)

I've searched around the web for quite some time now. I've read http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1933542, but i still have a question about it.

My phone:

Samsung Galaxy Note 2 4G

Modelnummer: GT-7105

Android-version 4.3

Baseband-version N7105XXUEMK2

In the topic of Chainfire's post of the CF-Auto-Root says GT-7105 is suitable for the CF-Auto-Root. But i'm still unsure about the Baseband-version, does the baseband-version matter?, if not is my phone then suitable for the CF-Auto Root?

(Why am i unsure about the Baseband-version; well that is because if i search on the web "GT-N7105 how to root", i find many with different baseband-versions so thats why it made me make this thread, sorry if it was a totaly useless thread and if the answer was 100% clear. But i kinda wanted to be sure before i start following the steps of CF-Auto-Root)

Hope any of you can help me with that question.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dzejju:
I think baseband version doesn't matter, but CF-auto root won't work anyway as there's Knox and it will block the superuser app.

Best if You change kernel (with CWM) and flash some knox free ROM.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wberesford:
Dylanaw,

If it helps, I flashed my GT-7105 a number of times this week to overcome an issue with my email and a poxy security feature (in the loosest of terms). Whilst I have zero affinity to one ROM or another I have eventually settled on the OMNI 4.4 ROM that you will find on the front page of the GT-7105 development page. Why? Easy really, as it is the clearest ROM in terms of steps to take and what to do :good: especially for newbs. So, if you really want to install a custom ROM then this is a good one to start with! Regards the baseband question, on this ROM my machine is displaying a baseband-version of N7105XXUMJ9.

I hope this helps.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dylanaw:
Thank you for your answers,

Does every note II got Knox?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dzejju:
Yes, as long as it is android 4.3.

God morning.

I have a Galaxy S4. I installed safestrap and some custom roms (kept my stock rom). I know want to remove all this and go back to stock. I have done a complete unroot in SuperSU and uninstalled (or so I thought), SafeStrap. However, when I restart my phone, safestrap is still booting and I get a lock on the screen with the word Custom underneath. I want to get rid of all of this and just go back to stock. It's Verizon S4 on MK2.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Mistertac:
You can try just uninstalling SafeStrap like any other app you have. Or flash the mk2 stock firmware in Odin.

Going the Odin way would actually be the better and easier way to go most likely. Sometimes the custom screen still lingers even after removing SafeStrap.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] wyzard01:
Can you give me some more details or links on how to use the Odin way.

Thank you.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Mistertac:
The first post in that thread explains what you'll need to do. Its a lot easier than a lot of people think.

- Download the USB drivers to your computer ( I believe they're linked in first post)

- Download the stock firmware zip in 1st post ( either full wipe or no wipe )

-download Odin from 1st post

- extract the .tar file from the firmware zip file

- open up Odin

- make sure you see it shows Device Connect when you plug your phone in

- load that .tar file into the PDA slot in Odin or AP slot depending on the version of Odin .

- make sure Re-Partition is NOT checked.

- hit start and wait for it to finish.

Again that's all said in the op.

Lol I'm tired I forgot to tell you that you need to put your phone into Download Mode and THEN connect it to your PC and THEN flash the file

There are some great videos on there.

It's been added now :)

Thanks, I'll rework the data structure tomorrow if I get time, it isn't made that brilliant for multiple devices. I just made a quick solution because [MENTION=3685904]ak[/MENTION] asked for Nexus 4 support, and of course it should be available to everyone :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
Any way to parse the md5s to show in-app for those that have them? Would be so handy. :)

Edit: Having issues with Carbon downloads too. It just downloads a 23kB html file instead.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tFrost:
I'll take a look at it, I've noticed some trouble with Carbon's download page before.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tFrost:
Still reworking the data structure, it's taking a bit longer than expected.

As soon as it's done and I've created a management interface I'll add a lot more roms/kernels to all the nexus devices
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tFrost:
The new version is now live (data restructured, more devices)

The following devices is supported: flo,grouper,hammerhead,maguro,mako,toro,toroplus

I've added the "big guys" ..but let me know if your missing any roms/kernels/gapps

I'm looking into getting the md5-sum - but it's a bit tricky because everyone locate it different places
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
Carbon ROM support went bye bye?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tFrost:
For now. I haven't found a solution to it yet, and I'd rather leave it out than have broken links as you spotted (23kb html files)

I can give you a quick example, if you select the first download in the list it works:

https://carbon-rom.com/downloads/?device=maguro&type=nightly

But if you refer directly to the download it doesn't work

https://us1.dl.carbon-rom.com/files/maguro/nightly/CARBON-KK-NIGHTLY-20140320-0442-maguro.zip

It has something to do with either host header or referral.

If it should work I have to parse all download links through and "cheat" the host - right now I'm just linking directly to the downloads.

I'll of course look into it :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
I was at least using it to easily check for nightlies but I definitely get not wanting something broken included. :)

Thanks! Awesome work!

P.S. What about not spoofing at all, and just opening a browser frame to the Carbon downloads page so that the followed links are still in the browser and therefore from their site?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tFrost:
If you have any other suggestions please let me know :)

The only thing in the pipeline is to get Carbon to work. I won't add more roms/devices unless it's requested.. would take ages to go through all the device threads and what good would it do if no one is using the downloads anyway :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tFrost:
[MENTION=4544860]osm0sis[/MENTION] CarbonRom is now added to all supported devices :)

New Category "Recovery" has been added, a quick and easy way to download the latest TWRP (looking into adding CWM also)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
Great work! Trying it now, but it shows like it's downloading "GetFile.axd" not the correct name of the zip. :confused:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tFrost:
Ah Damn I'll fix it soon :P but it is the correct file now, just the naming that is wrong :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
Sweet! :D

Out of Thanks but I'll hit you back tomorrow. :good:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tFrost:
It should be fixed in the next version (it will be rolled out from play store in a couple of hours)

And I just have to thank you for your patience, it really means a lot!

The learning curve is still quite steep but I'm learning more and more as I go along :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
No worries man! You're doing a great job! :)

Edit: [MENTION=3138090]tFrost[/MENTION] still something not quite right.. The Carbon downloads are only 1/4 of the speed they are from Chrome (~256kb/s vs. 1mb/s+) and always stall about 1/3 of the way through. No issues with stalling in Chrome. :confused:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tFrost:
I'm tunneling the downloads through my crap server that can explain the speed decrease, but the stalling I have to look into. I'm beginning to think that it isn't possible to proper download from them :-\
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
Ah.. Did the idea to just open a normal browser frame to download through not work?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tFrost:
I'll have to work from that now, just though I'd give this a shot. The issue with the external open is that it gives the small html file, but I'll see if I can fix that some how. If it's 100% external the download location will be based on the browser and not the folder specified in settings. So I'll rather not do that :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tFrost:
[MENTION=4544860]osm0sis[/MENTION] next version will open external links externally (in browser) ..couldn't get it to work any other way.

But I think it's the best thing to do, because a webview is quite limited for larger sites.

Shiny's file structure does not allow me to add it.

The same goes for CWM, don't they have a goo.im location anymore?

Nah, don't think they do. If I start hosting CWM on my Dev-Host you could probably use that, right? I'll see if I can find my older versions to get started. :good:

Maybe gray outlines of the stars and then they fill in gray (like the bottom ones) when selected?

Would keep a bit more to the design guidelines. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tFrost:
That was what I was going for. I'll post a new screen shortly

Official icons Is this better? - still think it's too eye popping
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
Nah I mean make all the stars like the first gray ones you posted before, but only the favorited ones are filled in, full stars; otherwise it's just a gray outline. Outer 2 or 3 pixels I'm thinking. :p

I'll mock it up if that still doesn't make any sense. :)

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
The parsing for DirtyV seems kinda messed up now. Not sure when it started. :confused:

Maybe [MENTION=4608636]bsmitty83[/MENTION] could put them all in subdirectories on tryhardcore.com (his host :p) and open them up for viewing so it's easier for you to parse and others to find old versions? :)

It'd be cool if ROM Directory had DirtyV with 3 submenus too, one for DirtyV, DirtyV-SR and SmittyV to keep them organized. Though obviously that'd be easier if Smitty can do the above first. ;)

If the lists could remember their collapsed state it would really complete the favorites idea. I've got my favorites picked and would like to hide all the other lists to keep it tidy. :good:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tFrost:
I'll look into showing the changelog and maybe md5, but it's not that easy because there isn't a standardized way to retrieve the data from the different developers.

And the only way to create it was if all the developers formatted their data in the same way.. And the whole point of the application is standardizing from different sources because you can't ask of that from all the developers :D

Getting it from a directory list instead of a forum post would definitely make it easier :D

I've added Dirty V in 3 different sub categories (collapsed by default, because the total download items is greater than 10)

The categories will be collapsed by default if you're using the favorites feature.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bsmitty83:
I'll see what I can do .
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tFrost:
I've added indicators to show if a category is open/closed.

Thanks but no rush :)

To make it easier I think a find & replace could work very well. Because the naming is already standardized.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
I'd recommend changing the "Old versions" to just 3 links pointing to those directories, and then you'd only have to update the "Latest" links. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tFrost:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
Would adding the PA GApps Add-ons be possible? Also with all the (awesome) sublists for PA GApps, would it be possible to have it remember their collapsed states as well? :angel:

It would be awesome but it requires a task which is running in the background and checking a specific page. If it's on the device it'll use battery and my current server isn't good enough to perform these tasks.

The intention with the application is to standardize rom downloads from their original source and I'll say it's doing that :)

I'll of course still develop the application but the 10+ requests a day on Pokémon roms have made me a bit tired of it atm. :D
