I have rooted. Now what? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II

Noobie here. I have rooted, but where do I go from here? Can I flash any rom to it? What roms do you recommend? I would love to change that annoying At&t boot intro! Thanks, everyone.

Welcome. Once are rooted, you basically have access to the system files on your phone.It is sort of like having access to the windows registry on any windows computer terminal access on any linux box. You can delete apps and other things "such as the boot up and down tones and videos", and customize the phone anyway you like. Be warned, unless you back up your phone... you are in for a lot of trial and error being new. the best thing to do is to sit back and let developers develop, and follow anyone instructions word for word.

Did you install recovery? You need recovery to backup your phone and install new roms.
Get titanium backup and backup your apps. Makes life a whole lot easier when you restore the apps with your preferences instead of downloading one by one. You do not need to backup system apps.
Once you have backups you can try different things. If something doesn't work you can go back to recovery and restore.

Ok I got titanium pro. I want to change the boot animation. I tried the boot animations ★ root app on from the play store and it doesn't work. It says I need busy box for it to work which I do have.

Titanium is good for an App level backup, but not a full recovery.
You'll need a little bit more experience before you totally hose your phablet.
1) get and load a nandroid recovery such as ClockWorkMod (CWM) or Team Win Recovery Project (TWRP).
2) make a system backup... FIRST, NOW. you will be happy to fall back to this if you FUBAR your phone.
Then play with ROMs if you must. I would recommend sticking to AT&T ROMs until you know more about the affects to the various partitions that could get overwritten and thus posibly brick your phone, posibliy out of warranty.
After successful testing of a ROM candidate... Make another full backup to preserve your current position.
Use Titanium to bring back your App level backups as needed (your progress, data, etc will come back) I hate re-doing angry birds after each flash.

Your stock rom probably isn't rooted.
Restore the nandroid backup, then flash Superuser through recovery. You can find the file here: http://goo-inside.me/superuser/su-2.3.6.3-efgh-signed.zip
You may need to install Busybox for Titanium Backup to work, but I think the developer removed the need for it. You can use a Busybox Installer from the market to install it if you need it.

Restoring data after "soft" brick?

I attempted to flash the 15Toggles/CRT mod (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1774717) and now my phone stays on the "Samsung Galaxy SIII" boot screen. I tried flashing the "restore" zip also included in that thread and it doesn't do anything. Now I've flashed various mods and what not without any problems before so lately I've gotten into a regretful habit of not backing up. I've learned my lesson from hereon out so please no lecturing, I'm just looking for some help.
Even though my phone is now "soft" bricked, I still went into CWM and did a complete backup ((I assume at this point CWM is the only way to back anything up). Now my question is once I have wiped everything and flashed the stock recovery, will I be able to restore my previous data separately from whatever system files caused the "soft" brick in the first place? Or am I pretty much SOL? Also, does app data include photos, voice recordings, wallpaper, etc. Or only settings for certain apps you've downloaded before?
Please dont use the term "brick" so lightly.
You have a soft brick.

If you made a backup now its most likely useless,as the system is corrupt. In theory you just backed up that corrupt system

Hopefully my edits are sufficient enough for your liking. However, it being a soft or hard brick is irrelevant to actual advice I was asking about. If you read it correctly, I made it clear that I made a backup in CWM (nandroid) after the soft brick and I was asking about restoring certain data.

You MAY be able to salvage.. I would try going into clockwork and wipe data cache dalvik.. flash the same ROM zip you were on before.. then advanced restore data from your cw backup you made.. see if it boots up..
My understanding is that it depends on what went wrong on your flash.. if it was the system or data partition that got corrupted.
If that doesn't work you'll have to wipe all three again.. flash the ROM zip and start over setting your stuff up. Go into the market on your now cleanly flashed phone and go into my apps. Then start downloading your stuff.
Presuming you are rooted, I would recommend grabbing titanium backup and running the batch 'backup all user apps' on a regular basis.. that way if this happens again you won't loose your app data.
And of course.. make a nandroid next time prior to flashing.. if you are on the lazier side.. use ROM manager as you can tell it to do a backup then flash and reboot with 'one-click'
Good luck

Thank you very much for the thorough and helpful reply. I actually am rooted using the stock ROM. The zip I flashed was for the original out-of-box ROM, something like "L710VPALEN." And from there I flashed the updates for the phone to bring it to the current LG8 firmware version. Would your method just require me to flash the "L710VPALEN" zip again, update it to LG8, and then attempt the advanced restore using CWM? Thanks again.
Yeah that's what I would try first.. flash the same zips you used to bring yourself to stock lg8..

From wat i am gathering, u nandroided after the soft brick... u can try an advanced restore and pick just the data partiton. Are u restoring data to the exact same rom u backed it up from? If u r then the restored data should play nice with the system... however its not gauranteed... As far as wat data includes... it should basically put ur app back to the way it was when u last had it open on ur phone. this is how titanium does it nd i presume nadroid is the same but someone correct me otherwise. Worst case it doesn't work u have to just re-install all ur apps from scratch. Personally i use titanium to do my backups. Set it to auto back up apps nd data nd ur good. Hopefully this helps.

I did what DrKaotica suggested, re-flashed the stock ROM then updated it to LG8, re-rooted, and then used advanced restore in CWM and chose "data restore." I'm going to TB to do what you said and set it for auto back ups. Thanks for helping out kind sir.
Nice I'm glad that worked.
Make a titanium backup widget for the action 'backup all user apps'.. and touch it from time to time:thumbup:
I don't know that you can schedule automatic app back ups with tb unless you get the pro version so this widget is an easy way to do it frequently with minimal effort

Titanium Backup - Now you can create flashable Zips

For those of you that use Titanium Backup there was a significant update to the application today. You have always had the ability to backup your apps and do a batch restore of your apps and data or just restore the app with no data.
Well now it gives you an option to create a zip (flashable in recovery) of either your apps or your apps with data. This will make the process of switching ROMs and getting your apps back almost seamless. Just flash the ROM, flash the .zip to get all your apps back, reboot and you are ready to go. Fantastic update.
Information below was found on Phandroid. Peace.
http://phandroid.com/2012/11/07/titanium-backup-for-root-users-gets-new-flashable-zip-backups/
Wow nice
This is actually an awesome feature. Unfortunately, I lost my TiBu license quite awhile ago and moved onto RTB. Hoping RTB eventually implements this as well considering they're big competitors. Or I might just pick up another license if it goes on sale again.

Anyone else try it?

It is supposed to back up data and in a batch restore it will give the options...app only...data only...app and data. And it works fine.
But I tried the new recovery zip feature...chose apps and data and the data didn't restore. I had to do it manually later.
I tried this feature. Some data restored, and on first boot after flashing zip, titanium ran on its own to restore the rest. Couldn't make sure the programs all came out ok because the whole rom went south on me. Not a related issue though.

Get App2zip from the market it backs up data apps and system apps. Flash it in cwm recovery. Or look up clockwork combiner its nice it combines multiple zips into one zip that you flash in recovery saving you time because everything you need is all in one zip.

Titanium Backup.
Been some problems with titanium back up when flashing new roms, see galaxy nexus development threads for some examples, if you want a relatively failsafe method that stores your apps off phone you can use a file manager like astro to back up all your apps into apks then drop the backups into a folder on your computer via usb, along with any media or data you want preserved, then reload after fully wiping phone and flashing new rom, you might have to download a file manager to install the apks if rom doesnt have one. Gather you have a custom recovery installed, dont forget to update it prior to flashing new rom so you can recover if all doesnt go to plan. Good luck

If you are using the latest version of titanium backup, you have the option of creating flashable zips of all your apps with data included. Tried it a few times and it seems to work flawlessly for me. The key is to avoid restoring any system apps. I have about 70+ apps to restore and setup. Before it would take me an hour or two, now is done in about 10 minutes.

Titanium backup is useless unless you actually have the pro version. Pro version makes it all one click, set it and forget it. Definitely recommend it for any custom rom flasher.

ROOTing my phone, want to make sure a few things

Hello,
I'm thinking about rooting my phone (HTC One X 4.1.1, CID_102) and I want to make sure a few things:
1. I'm going to use this tutorial: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2069904
Exactly as it says there.
Is it ok?
2. When a new update is released, how can I update my device with the root? I will keep using the stock rom, only with ROOT.
3. How can I backup all of my data? Including pics, SMS, whatsapp, app settings and information and etc.
4. Is there an option that when I start my device again after it was formated, it will download all of the previous apps? if not, then I need to make a list of all of my apps.. about 35 but still.
Thanks!
1. Great choice!
2. You need to flash stock recovery. And restore any system apps you've deleted.
Then update normally and you won't lose root.
3. Do a backup in ClockWorkMod recovery or whatever recovery you use. Transfer it to your PC afterwards for safe storage.
4. Download titanium backup and back up all your apps. Then transfer the backup to PC.

Thank you, I guess I will ask about it when there is a new update.
Can you help me with questions 3 and 4?
Well the steps are :
Unlock the bootloader
Flash a custom recovery
In that custom recovery is an option backup and restore, when you press backup it runs a complete nand backup of everything on the phone except the sdcard.
If you want to just backup parts like sms,whatsapp etc etc....then you can use titanium backup like TT said or another program called carbon. These apps allows you to backup just parts that you wantnto backup and restore after an update.
I always start with a clean install of all apps and stuff, it "feels" better to me. But that is a personal opinion

1. Freedom is an application that lets you (with root) to get stuff from applications that costs money (in-app purchase).
2. No, the CM10 has the latinme (if I'm ont mistaken) keyboard, that Android 4.2 has as stock, and it has swipe feature. In CM10 they put swipe in more langauges so I want to use it.
I think that if I'll install the GAPPS from CM10 then it will install this keyboard also. In order to do that, I just need to put the .ZIP file in my phone, and from the recovery install it like I installed SU?
Can I delete it later? and the gapps will update also from market (and not blocked like a pirated application)
Here's the keyboard, install like normal .apk. Pulled from android 4.2.1.

1. IDK if it's illegal, but thanks anyway
2. What's TT?
My dear friend TToivanen ! who also helps people here a lot :thumbup:
Ow and about the freedom app, i don't see it in the playstore....dont actually know if its illegal....i will leave that in the grey for the moment
oh he replied to me, I will update in short if the keyboard works for me as I want or not.
This is just a warning.
Any app that allows you to download a paid app for free is classed as warez on XDA and is not allowed. You can not upload any app on XDA that is a paid app. The warez policy also includes trying to get around in-app purchases.
ok, sorry.
TT, I installed what you sent me, but for some reason the keyboard doesn't appear on Language & keyboard menu.
EDIT:
Didn't notice, it was installed but it doesn't swipe in my language, but in CM10's keyboard (at least for the Galaxy Nexus) it is.
Is there a way to put their keyboard on my phone?
