yes, it's real you are not dreaming, it;s that easy
the whole process takes about 3 min tops

The methods I've found when searching thru threads were all thru Odin. Via custome recovery, I'm a noob in terms of Samsung. Never really liked touch wiz, but this phones has such great hardware it can't be denied. My only riff is that they didn't go with 1280×800 Res, but that would give the galaxy nexus problems. But again its not like i posted this in the deployment section. I was always told "if u have a question you should ask". And i did so in the right forum.

Rooting

If you are going to root, do not do like me and just start going on a rom rampage. To extend on that statement, I traded into this device and it was rooted... it was just a few days after the release so obviously no cure or stable rom at that point. Long story short... I have messed up and fixed a lot of things with this device already and it only cost me a few long nights and making my wife hate me. So that is why if you are going to root, make sure its worth it.

I won't flash any ROMs until there is an actual stock ROM available to go back to... One that doesn't borrow anything from the international rom's...
But I gotta ask, what happened during your ROM rampage?

He probably got it mixed up. If you read his other posts he's obviously a newbie at this and probably is talking about all the mistakes he's made while trying to root. OP Be careful what you say around here it's easy to get flamed over not knowing what you're talking about. I hope you take the time to read as much as you can and try not to ruin a perfectly good phone...

Yep. I read in a similar thread someone flashed it, and now their computer, odin, nothing recognizes their phone. Tough break.

Can't believe some of the stuff people do in here or the things they post... If this was really for our phones why not just wait for a developer to put it all together for you... Haste makes waste...SMDH
I hope someone comes up with a solution for their phones because it was more than 1 person that flashed it...
so, does that mean an official OTA in 2013? haha **troll**

When I was a noob, it wouldn't go near something like this unless I read that 200people have done it succesfully before me. I wouldn't even think of just flashing something unless it was cleary stated it was for my phone and had step by step instructions on what to do and I would confirm about 50x that it was for my phone before actually falshing it.
Now that I am no longer a noob and would like to consider myself a veteran at flashing, I even stay further away from these things. lol

+1 Back in 2009 when I first started modding (a Motorola Razr) I stumbled onto XDA. After getting my wizard 1st, and then my excalibur (t Mo Dash), I made sure I read everything thrice, even 4 times, before flashing. I was a lot more gung-ho back then. After totally bricking my Fender MT3G, I take more caution. I am super ocs now with my E4GT (best device I've ever owned), so I was just kidding about the guinea pig thing, lol.

If you just got your phone the BEST way by far is to just just sfhub's autoroot package http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1342728
Run the root, then add the EL29+CWM+Rogue, or EL26 whatever your kernal says you have. This will give you root and CWM for flashing modems, and ROMs. Just spend some serious time reading the stickies and through the threads. You really don't want to end up with an expensive paper weight

Hard Bricked?

I accidentally flashed a pit file in Odin which I think was made for a Galaxy Vibrant, my other phone.
The phone wont boot at all. When I plug it into the computer, the computer makes noise like it registers it though. The normal 'ding' sound followed by an error-like sound.
Is there any fix?

And I want you to know that I was laughing at Rushing's comment, not your dilemma. I'm sorry you bricked your phone. If this does not get moved to the Q&A section soon, you may want to ask the question again there. I'm sure someone will chime in there with helpful comments, even if it's just to confirm that you need a new phone. I've never had to deal with more than a soft brick, so I'm not sure if a jig will help you or not.

doubtful...only JALstudios has that kind of tech in his rom, and he had to use the at&t radio tower to get lte
anyways, might want to check out www.mobiletechvideos.com they can definitely repair your phone with their Jtag repair service...they unbricked my phone and can definitely do yours :laugh:

You screwed your phone. You flashed a vibrant file on a T989. I've done this mistake when I was a super noobie thinking a "galaxy s2" name applied to all of them and I flashed a I9100 on my T989. I enjoyed a night of disappointment before I was able to call and finally get my replacement sent (it was under 20 days, thank god!) if your not so lucky, your screwed. However if they will accept it and return it they wont question you at all as long as you are super-hard bricked and cant boot or get into download mode or anything.
If you happened to change the recovery via odin, which I think you did, for something that ain't xompatible with our phone, yes you're done.
Nothing can be done sadly

Whats best way to successfully root N2

Ive seen people say certain methods aren't good. Who can steer me in best direction on this please.
Sent from my SGH-T889 using xda premium
Im not at my computer right now, but the recommended method of rooting is:
The root toolkit. Its very easy to do bro. Just follow and read.
Sent from my SGH-T889 using xda premium
To be a bit more clear.. There indeed can be many kinds of routes, some can reset your counter, and I believe some don't. Counter is a number that changes if you root your device so T-Mobile knows you messed with it. If your counter gets reset, they can't tell if you rooted or not.
I'm not on the T-Mobile network, so I didn't really care which. Head over to the developer section of this device category and read the thread by 'Simplelife' on how to root! Pick a method best for you. I personally used option 2.

Just picked up 2 of these T-Mo Note 2's last weekend. I just used the Galaxy Note2 ToolKit v3 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1957720 Just follow the on screen instructions, and make sure you read all the options. It wasn't as easy as unlocking and rooting my Nexus... but all I had to do is click one more option lol!
Thanks everyone for input. I used toolkit v3 and it worked flawlessly. Got root, recovery, and jedi x11. Friggin awesome.

How do I find the root toolkit?
I think the easiest method would be to flash TWRP and then flash superzu via TWRP.
