How to root tmobile galaxy note 2 (10/25/12) - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II

This is not done by me, i am just a tester. to confirm this and own a SGHT889 tmobile galaxy note 2. It works perfect. All credit goes to the individual or inviduals provided in the. 2nd link.
Again, ONLY ROOT VIA FLASHING RECOVERY THROUGH ODIN AND INSTALLING SUPER USER VIA CWM. IF YOU DONT DO THIS YOU WILL BRICK YOUR DEVICE. I AM NOT RESPONSIBKE IF YOU DO.
Make sure phone is in USB debugging mode on settings then developer options
1) Download note 2 samsung driver and install
2) Run the toolkit and select XXALJ1 OPTION 2.
3) Select option 2 rooting options
4) Select option 4 to flash cwm, and superuse.
5) Once installed and your device boots into recovery flash superuser.zip

Feel free to add to this or take it over. This is just temporary till a developer takes over this thread.
Don't post problems, ideas, or anything else on the other thread as it will do no good for their version of note 2. Post all your stuff here so we can get this bad boy rolling.
Thanks

I made some changes to make itba little more convenient. Please. Post progress thx.

Great work guy's! Step one accomplished!

Thank you very much! That worked like a charm.

I couldn't get it to see the phone, might have been impatient or missed a step. Should the phone be in download mode? Or just on?
I used Simplelife's method, with odin, and that worked like a charm.
I truly am thankful for the work everyone did to figure this out in such a short amount of time.

Friendly reminder: "How to root" threads don't belong into a development board - unless it's a exploit, you yourself, coded from ground-up.
Please watch WHERE you post.

Worked awesome on my T-mobile Galaxy Note II - Thanks for sharing! :good:

can somebody please provide a link to the drivers? I can't find them anywhere and I don't want to install Kies... thanks

Works like a Charm. Thanks a lot. I love the original ROM, just needed root access.

This thread is being closed not because of any wrong doing, just for the fact that the Toolkit supports kernel rooting and full support for TMobile models now *HERE* so there is no need for this thread anymore.
Also the link in the first post is for V1.0.0 which is out dated and as this will probably be updated a few times in the next few days to add new devices its best for people to download directly from the thread to get the latest version.
Thanks for providing the info to your fellow users
Mark.

All the files are up on my github and available for anyone to look on and improve or even continue in case i stop . i know there is already a few toolkits over here but i figured since ive got the galaxy nexus i might as well post mine here since i added gnexus support to my nexus s 4g one almost a year ago.
since the best way to root a nexus device is via flashing recovery and then obtaining root that way rather than using an exploit that doesnt unlock your bootloader, or relying on a pre-rooted kernel which works great assuming no one ever updates ;P. some people have a hard time with rooting the nexus, this isnt a true one click but its designed in teh style (i think you need to have maybe 4-5 actions on your behalf besides pressing enter/space ). so before questions begin, yes it will work on all firmware versions even key lime pie and beyond.. its just the nature of nexus devices

Kudo's for finding a positive.
got my drivers and everything installed. the script runs, opens up the bootloader and asks me to select unlock and press power. . . but there's no unlock option, just reboot bootloader, recovery, reboot and power off. am i doing this right?
I had a huge problem with this script/app.
The undo process run on a Nexus S seems to have tricked my NS into being a NS4G. I really could use help from ANYONE who can, especially OP.

Just want to make sure that this will work on the new gwk74 software version, not sure if the software has anything to do with the rooy, i am going to attempt this sometime this weekend. also if i need to un-root it to get sprint to service it will this do it?
thanks for this, i was iffy about using this on my wifes ns4g on 2.3.7 till i read the comments for the youtube video. it worked like a charm on the first try.

There is not.much to the adb commands. In fact, there is one. Fastboot oem unlock. I know it doesn't answer your question about the link but the way Google provided is really quite simple as well.
Is that the other "one click root" that is up here? The old one or whatever? Caused I tried that and it's not working either.

[Galaxy Note2 TOOLKIT] Drivers, Backup, Root, CWM, EFS, Flash to Stock -SOON FOR i317

As many are wondering, I'm posting this link in advance. The OP stated he will place a thread on the AT&T forum, but many here cannot wait for this good info.
Find it on this page:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1957155
I understand it now is supporting ATT (SGH-L317) & ROGERS (SGH-L317M)
All credit to mskip :good:
Please thank him on his OP!
<<EDIT>> THIS TOOL IS NOT READY FOR i317. i317/i317m version will be supported on Tool v2.3.1 <<< This has not yet been posted in the OP.
Says AT&T version is only available in the latest (2.3.1) version but the OP only has 2.0 and autoupdate doesn't work unless I donate I guess.
2.3.1 allows for return to stock ROM?
2.3.1 is the recovery

Anyone else having trouble with mskip's donate page via paypal. It won't let me enter anything but an UK address. I was hoping to update and try out his toolkit, but it doesn't seem like it will happen.
I'm not trying to be an ass hat but this thread shouldn't be here yet since it doesn't really support our devices until mskip updates his toolkit!! someone miss-read and tried using the toolkit on their SGH-i317m note 2 and soft bricked their phone, now he has to wait for an official firmware release by Samsung

I do agree with you Turilo. At the same time, people do need to read the OP message. He does state that i317 is only supported in v. 3.1.2 and you need to be a donator with auto-update to currently get this support. Also, if you load up the program in v. 2.0.0 there is no mention of model # i317, and it warns you to not try flashing files intended for other device models.
I feel sorry for them, but we all have to learn this valuable lesson some time in our modding career. Always read the OP notes.
That being said, it probably would be best this thread is closed until mskip posts his updated version on our forum. Its best not to mess with the benevolence of the kernel/bootloader devs. They are few and far between, and we need them.

Worked perfectly! Thanks again to Team Codefire for high levels of awesomeness.
Now bring on the roms! lol
Thank you! :highfive:
EDIT: I'm wondering if someone made this flashable, we (bell, rogers) would be able to flash the BASE ROM from the att forum and then flash this since at this time we don't have a rom that's flashable yet..

Does the Rogers version have a lot of bloatware on it? I remember my Samsung Captivate having about 3 or 4 Rogers apps put on it/

If it disables LG Security does that mean we can safely uninstall google apps like movies and books?
Im just trying to make sure I have all my ducks in a row here, so I appologize if this is a redundant question. Which recovery are we supposed to use?? In the Sprint development forum there is a tethered version of CMW. Do we use that?? Or, is there something included in the FreeGee exploit? Or even still, do we just use the stock recovery?

Freegee includes CWM. Once it's done you can boot into the bootloader and get to cwm, or use adb and reboot into recovery that way (easier, because we can't see what we're selecting in the bootloader at the moment, vol down twice then power gets you there )
Just so I am clear you arent able to see the fastboot options because of LG's doing right? Not because of the exploit made here? Or was it because of the exploit and that was just an unfortunate side effect of doing it this way that would be fixable in a future update?

Nothing lg related. I believe it is just a trivial side effect and they rather release a version as quick as.possible and put focus on.more important stuff than target irrelevant images
what about f180l

Awesome! Can't wait for the custom roms coming, especially if it fixes the battery issue!
I rooted and unlocked without any issues. However, when I enter CMW and attempt to make a nandroid backup of the original Rom it says "Can't mount unlock path". I've never run into this before. Do I need to mount something in the Mounts & Storage?

k1mu has created a USABLE root tool for the RAZR M, originally intended on the Samsung S4.
Low and behold it works on our latest firmware 98.30.1, 9.8.1Q-94-1.
There are many others that have confirmed that this works as well as me.

Simply unzip, and run the .bat file and follow the instructions.
Good luck!

I agree. Without the detailed directions in the original post in the VZ S4 forum, important directions to make this work is lost.
For example, I'm going to be posting directions this weekend that will allow this to work on a number of devices without using adb.
I'm trying to make this better, run on more devices, make it faster, etc... I can't be managing snapshots all over the forums.
Yeah, I know, it's exiting to have root. Let's not complicate it unnecessarily.

I figured people would probably still ask about the BL. However, you can still do a lot of tweaking on the stock ROM if you are rooted.

Hold my hand updating to MK1

Hey guys
I know its probably been asked a few times before but i just want to make sure i've got the right stuff to upgrade my P600. Heres my circumstances....
1. Un-rooted and would like to remain that way (for now)
2. P600 note 10.1 running MJ6 firmware
3. Living in the UK
Anyway, i've downloaded ODIN v3.09 but im not sure on which region MK1 update would be best to go for? If possible could someone post the link to the one most suited for me (I'm thinking US) and a guide relevant to what i'm doing with this device and update.
Cheers lads,

Hi,
Samsung updates go alphabetically, J, K, L if you follow me. ML1 is the latest, Taiwan region but it's fine. (I'm UK as well using ML1)
Use this guide, there's links as well. Ignore the bit about having root in the first place it's fine just follow the guide in the second post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2618509
In that thread there are mirrors for stock firmware because Samsung ones are very slow.

Use this guide, there's links as well. Ignore the bit about having root in the first place it's fine just follow the guide in the second post:

In that thread there are mirrors for stock firmware because Samsung ones are very slow.
Hope I helped :thumbup:

Cheers mate, seems simple enough
Will it wipe all data on my tablet? Also alot of people recommend doing a full wipe after the update. Is this a must or is it just like PC's with changing graphics card drivers (Just to start fresh?)

It shouldn't wipe data unless you do it yourself. I've updated myself without wiping but it is best to wipe data to prevent any issues/errors.

Ok, well i've now updated so ill have a play around with it and see how i get on. I'd rather not delete everything but if i get some weird bugs ill do it.
Thanks again mate, you've been a HUGE help!
