It does that whenever you ODIN flash a kernel that wasn't signed by Samsung. It also increments the ODIN flash count.
If you ODIN flash a stock kernel, the yellow triangle will go away and the I9100 stuff will go back to what it was before. The ODIN flash count will remain the same (ie incremented by 1) but you won't see it during the boot process. If you want to reset that, use a USB jig.
The better way to install CWM is after obtaining root, use Option C in the Auto Root package. This will not trigger the yellow triangle, nor will it increment the ODIN flash count.
You can find the individual kernels in the 2nd post of each of the ODIN links in my signature. You can use any kernel, but for ease, just pick the version that matches what you installed.
Yeah but it just doesnt recognize my computer my phone it sound when i conect it but in my phone it doesnt show me the option to mount storage and in the autoroot doesnt recognize the phone just stills there waiting to recognize it and already have the drivers installed

Ive reinstalled them twice and well it is recognized as SAMSUNG CDMA Tecnologies and thats all no mount or anything
Also, so you have attampted to boot into download mode, and connect to computer. Does Odin recognize the connection?

Dont worry i dont ask before searching on the forums and all the web and look over the forums and wont found almost anything about what i ask one was CWM related and this one was soft brick related
Hello everyone, firstly I'd like to apologize in advance if this has been answered before. I searched and could not find a resource to help me with my problem. Here goes, I recently purchased a SGH-T889 Galaxy Note II. I managed to unlock the device and popped in a AT&T sim card. All was well until I decided to flash the AT&T varient stock firmware on it and that's when everything went wrong. Odin failed at the very end of the flash and the phone would not boot. I flashed back to TMobile stock and the phone boots into the OS fine but now the IMEI is blank, the baseband is unknown, and it says there is no SIM inserted. I also noticed when the phone is connected via USB the internal storage is not accesible, says there is 0 space. After searching around and reading up a bit it seems I have screwed up my EFS partition. Being the extreme noob that I am unfortunately a backup was not made prior to flashing. Am I screwed? I've tried reflashing different versions of the stock but I still get the same results. Is it possible to use a EFS backup from a different phone and insert the IMEI from my phone? Any help will greatly be appreciated.
:crying:
(Please forgive me if you are an advanced user) Are you sure that you are following the step-by-step instructions for flashing that are available here on the forum? I have resolved many problems myself by reading from the list of steps as I flash rather than relying on memory.

Flashing to stock is not your problem. If you're booting you're fine. You will need to restore your imei now. There is a guide in development (edit I actually didn't find it when I just checked, but that guide above should work). I'm sure you realize this now, but never Odin something not made for your phone.

Thanks for the links. I don't have the phone on me at the moment but will give this a try and hopefully this will fix the issue. When this happened to you were you able to see any internal storage from your PC and or the phone itself? When I went into the storage area under settings it displayed how much space was being used by the apps but it also said 0 was available.

I want to flash a custom rom on my Note 2 from bell mobility.
I'm following steps from wiki called How To Install CyanogenMod Android for Samsung Galaxy Note 2 LTE ("t0lte")
When I type heimdall flash --recovery recovery.img --no-reboot, it gives me a message "heimdall is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file."
What am I doing wrong?
First of all what is your model number? Are you rooted? Custom recovery?

I'm not rooted. I'm following the steps in "Installing a custom recovery on Galaxy Note 2 LTE"
Samsung devices come with a unique boot mode called Download Mode which is very similar to Fastboot Mode on some devices with unlocked bootloaders. Heimdall is a cross-platform, open source tool for interfacing with Download Mode on Samsung devices. The preferred method of installing a custom recovery is through this boot mode. Rooting the stock firmware is neither recommended nor necessary.

Model number is SGH-i317M. M simply means Bell Mobility, they always add "M" at the end. Otherwise it's the same, no difference.

Thank you but this one is using odin I think. I heard that Heimdall is better. If you go to the cyanogenmod website and select Samsung Galaxy Note 2 LTE ("t0lte"), then you can click "How To Install CyanogenMod Android for Samsung Galaxy Note 2 LTE ("t0lte")" and it has the instuctions. This is the part I'm having a problem with. This is the guide they provide for the cyanogenmod, so it's kind of "official" and that's why I want to use it. Also when I'm stuck at something I want to figure it out instead of jumping from one thing to another. I don't understand why it's not working I'm following all the instructions. I'm wondering if anyone used the method I'm trying to use.
Have you installed Heimdall on your mac computer? You have to install it on your computer, NOT on your phone..
Then you place your phone in download mode, and run the heimdall command from your Mac..
AND, if instruction on XDA appear "too sophisticated" for you, then you are NOT ready to root your phone, trust me on this one..
But hey, its your phone, so go crazy....

Hahaha:good: It's just a matter of following steps. And from reading the guide I don't need to root my phone. I like when everything is complete and clear. After so many years I though it would become simpler to install a rom, not more complicated.
I have a PC, not a Mac. But how do I install it on my computer? It doesn't say neither how nor that I need to in the instructions.

They look sophisticated, but I can still do them. I flashed roms with odin on my galaxy s 2. However I already started with something so that's how I want to finish it. Also the creator of the rom provides instructions how to install his rom so that's why I want to do it that way.
Heimdall is for mac's not pc's, so if you want to install ANY custom rom on your phone, you need to be able to use Odin
and, you MUST root your phone to install Cyanogen mod or any custom rom, period, no matter what you might have read..

yeah, this ^ seems like your best shot: You can fix your phone-recognition problem, unroot, and (if you do it right), keep your data in one fell swoop.

As long as you don't end up with stock recovery and do a factory reset, usually you'll keep your SD intact.
