Ok. Download ROM manager and use it to install regular cwm recovery.

I would use the non touch recovery and wipe cache,wipe data, wipe systeam, then flash super wipe. Install ROM, then flash the cache wipe.zip I posted. reboot and let us know.

Also if you have an external , put the ROM you want to flash on the external sd.

Go into mounts and storage and format /system /data and cache wipe dalvik factory reset and flash this rom

After you flash that you have to re root your device use regular cwm not touch and then flash whatever rom you want

I tried everything but its not working for me. Everything is still force closing and the same bloody rom and theme shows up everytime i flash a new rom. Tried flashing through the external sd card as well but no luck. It shoes Google Framework not working. is there any way around it. Its bugging me now. Even tried flashing cwm through rom manager but no luck there as well.

SORRY man cant do that. I worked really hard to earn this cell phone and wont let it go for free. I bought it for a full price off the contract and don't think will be donating it. I am pretty sure people will be able to help me here. Its not like the phone is dead. Its working except for a few disruptions. Besides people are offering me $450 even in such a condition.
I was just wondering if it was possible to make a .zip file to restore our phones to Factory fresh-ish?
Heres my thinking: If we did a Factory Reset from the phone that wipes everything, sd included, then boot into CWM or TWRP Recovery because it would still be there, I believe, wipe everything in Recovery, then install the .zip? The .zip would have Root, CWM or TWRP Recovery and all the stock files.
Question is...Would this allow us to not have to use LGNPST? Or would there still be files stuck that would make us use LGNPST?[/SIZE]
Hope that all makes sense.

That would be nice. But I can't imagine it to be more useful that lgnpst. Think of it like Odin for the Samsung phones.
True. But Odin is simple and easy to get. Im just trying to think of an easier way to fix our phones when we mess em up.

Under recovery just wipe system/cache and dalvik cache.
All was wiped but the sd card part. was still there. Was that what you meant?
My idea or thought in the OP was to make something as available as Odin that could fix borked phones. LGNPST isn't as readily available. I think the stock v8 .zip is as close as we can get. It was a thought.
Sent from my LG-LS970 using xda premium
But, arent ZIPs useless if the phone is really bricked and cant even boot into recovery? Isnt that the advantage LGNPST has?
Unless it was an update.zip like factory recovery. I don't think what im thinking can be done.

Hey guys, and so you know, I have rooted my vibrant, but i just have a few questions i could not find the answer to,weirdly
1. Factory unlock needed? Is there a different root procedure ( wouldnt be suprised)
2. The possibility of hardbricking, high or low.
3. Can I restore a backup of a different version of android if possible, and do i just need to wipe cache etc to flash the same version of android.
Thanks in advanced and sorry if this is noobish, just dont really have a lot of time due to school.

1. Factory unlock...? The easiest way (at least for me) was using Odin to inject root into stock ROM.
2. As with any tinkering/modding with any Android device, there is always a risk of hard bricking, but if you follow the procedures carefully, you shouldn't run into any issues.
3. Not sure what you really mean, but as i always say, it's always best to flash fresh (full wipe)
hope this helps, good luck!
1) unlock not needed but if you want u can do it for free; check general section
2) less possibility of hard bricking unless u flash rom for different phone ; dont forget to backup imei number ; high possibility of loosing it.
3) restore from diffwrent version highly not recommend if you want bug free phone.
And that is how you turn you're soon to be rooted phone into a rocket ship with fireworks coming out of it!
With rainbow sprinkles!

And also, i want confirm because my friend said clockwork will be wiped after first reboot after using, is this true? Or does is stay for as long as you wish.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
Umm, the clockwork recovery? It stays forever.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
Hey man. Welcome over to this side of the fence.
The Recovery gets saved into the recovery partition and will stay until you switch it out with another (TWRP) or stock. So that is a non-issue.
Being a fellow ex-Vibe user, I understand your questions. Same as the Vibrant you can flash/restore laterally and not have any issues as long as you wipe, reset, usual stuff. But also same as the Vibrant, you should not go from ICS to JB or JB 4.2 and back without a clean install (can always upgrade but going back is where issues come into play). And by clean install I mean Odin to reset the proper partitions. That is another thing. You should probably update your Odin. There is a thread around here with it or just get your Google on.
If you are on stock TWiz, you can use (your recently updated) Odin to flash mrRobinson's Root66 and it will be stock ROM but with Root. Way easier than the Update.zip scene we had on the Vibrant.
Another thing is that the internal is set up differently. The internal is set up as a /data/media partition. This means that if you Factory Reset with the Stock recovery, you will effectively wipe your whole internal SD. However, if you use CWR or TWRP, they won't wipe your internal SD unless you Format Data. I learned that the hard way on my tablet about a year ago.
Good luck

clockwork will stay forever unless you ODIN back to stock, which will replace clockwork with the stock recovery
WOODY! Glad to see you here. I missed your advice. Anyway, thanks for everything and i may root soon.

Im also new looking to root, will rooting wipe everything in my internal? pix, vids, songs, sms etc? Sorry not exactly clear on the root process for this phone, also had vibrant (easiest way to root ever) and sensation (not hard either). But this is kind of confusing like I have to flash a fw thru odin that already has root?

Its not the only way to root it, but if you do it that way you won't lose things in your SD anyway, only your data like apps and stuff.. An easier way is to just flash clockwork mod and flash superuser which will give you root, it will however trip your flash counter.. I've done it both ways

Hi, I have finally just rooted my note 2 and I was trying to flash Jedi X but everytime I'm in download mode it says that is cannot mount the internal sdcard. This probably has an easy solution but idk it since I'm a noob so can someone help me out please?
You need to be in recovery to flash roms not download mode
thats what I ment sry.
What steps did you take before you got that error?

Sorry my bad, I would stay away from N7100 and N7105 section. There so many N7100 and N7105 ported rom for our device in att section so just use the ones from here. If read the changelogs of some roms here you will see MF2 roms are originally from N7xx roms.
Edit..
Flashing rom made for N7xx device can mess up your modem, imei etc. I
Thank you much much for this info. I did try to flash a n1700 Rom once and like you said I didn't get any connectivity on my Rogers carrier even when I found a modem to flash, and ended up having to go back to stock plus factory resets which is such a pain

Brick like dead screen, not responding to anything or wont show n your computer when connected to usb or simply expensive paper weight. Only way to revive it flash via jtag etc. There is also soft brick where its only black screen but you can still flash roms via Odin and flashing wrong rom can cause soft brick too.

What he said above...
There is also a corrupt efs partition. If you didn't have it backed up you have no imei, and so you have a phone that can turn on but can't connect to any network, this can be permanent and has happened to people from flashing n7100 roms

Back up of EFS is a must too, it is a good habit that you always have nand, modem csc patch and efs back up saved to you external card or computer.
Once your a little more familiar with your phone this is a good thread to check out http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2018411. For the most part the i317 and 7105 are identical except for modem and gps files DO NOT FLASH A 7100 ROM Unless it has been modded following the posted thread. Personally i have been using Jedi x17 it has everything i want extended boot menu,Lidroid 23 toggles,speed tweaks etc... Now i have made my own modifications as well (status bar,speedometer and ringtones) I also have been working on modding MA3 rom as well in my spare time but really Jedi works just fine. Just my two cents. Good Luck and have fun,Dave
