Rooting 4.1.2 - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II

So I installed a clean version of 4.1.1 and let it upgrade to 4.1.2. Is there anyway that I can get root on this without reflashing a complete ROM??? I was looking in the development section, and it looks like the only way to get root is to flash a complete image over this one (which I assume would wipe my data that I just finished putting back on).
I read a few threads saying that the Exploit previously used with no problem now breaks the camera. Any suggestions?

the exploit dosnt break the camera the fix does. use exynosabuse app to root

Did You try Toolkit from MSKIP?

Exploit didnt break camera for me. I think its patching the exploit that breaks camera. Cf-auto root should also work I would think.
Edit: lol next time ill refresh before I reply

lol you guys were right about using the exploit to root. Thanks!

Lost wifi calling after attempted Odin root

I am risking getting flamed but I find the search rather difficult on my gs2, I attempted to duo the Odin root (haven't completed due to having to do a hard reset) and I had noticed that wifi calling is gone is there any way to get that back? I have also noticed that keis no longer talks to my device it says I need to connect it no mater if I am in debug mode or in normal mode any ideas?
Perpetually stumped....

Odin wont root your phone. It installs clockwork mod recovery OR can be used to return your phone to stock configuration.
If you did something to root your phone with Odin, which it wont do, its no wonder you are experiencing problems.

could you have possibly used ODIN to flash a pre rooted 2.3.5 rom?
Are you saying that if you go to settings/Wireless and network you don't see WiFi calling there? it might be there, but just disabled.

Yeah this is wierd, ODIN doesnt even touch the ROM on your phone. All it does is flasha new recovery image.(if you followed the ROOT guide in the dev section). If you did anything with superuser in ODIN then you might have bigger problems than wifi calling...
Actually JessieJames11191981 hit the nail on the head it took me back to 2.3.5 how do I get back to 2.3 6 when over the air says there is no update available and it won't connect to Samsung keis

use this thread to root your phone and install a custom recovery
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1332103&highlight=super+one+click+root
then just flash a custom or stock 2.3.6 rom and bam wifi calling. If you want to keep some bloat but have an easy way to remove some download and follow the insructions of this rom : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1322642 It has a program called bloater where you can pick what bloat programs you want to keep and which to remove

[Q] Rooting sgh-t989 after ics update

can i root my sgh-t989 after i update to ics. will i still be able to use ics and just have the capabality to remove bloat and all root fucntions?
if you are a developer you probably can, but if aren't you have to wait for somebody to release rooted version of this rom
Since it isnt actually out yet, we dont know what will work to root with any certainty. You just have to wait.
thanks
I just got this update. Without realizing I updated it. Now i want root :/
D'oh! It will be out soon, we have excellent devs!
lol i know. The only thing is i tether it with my streak7 which is installedi n my car and use it as a gps and media center. with internet radio. I cant tether no more t-mobile app needs to be deleted via titanium backup which requires root!

You can root the new ICS ROM
It is rooted via the same old method used to root the original stock rom. you can get all the files either here on this site or from galaxys2root.com. the root site has a youtube video if you need a step-by-step hand holding.

I have decided to hold back on root at the moment due to the flash counter and OTA break issue.
Its killing me though to have to live with such high lcd density atm
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda premium
i'm holding off as well...
waiting to see what sort of custom roms appear in the coming weeks before i decide what to do with it...
aside from Titanium Backup, i don't really use a lot of root packages... changing the DPI would be nice, but i can live with it for the moment until the devs get coding
M
I'm holding off for now too, I really like having this phone stock at the moment but if Google wallet comes out for root then I will.
One idea if you afraid from raising flash counter.
Flash pre rooted rom
Use mobile odin to flash stock rom.
This won't raise flash counter.

Warranty will be voids.
Though soon triangle away application will get support for note2, then it can be reset.

PS : any special reason for asking? As you have already used sgs3,note and difficult to believe you don't know it.

You need to choose what you want:
1. Have root and forget about OTA`s and Kies and use CWM and PC/Mobile Odin or
2. Stay on stock firmware and forget about root all together.
You can`t have it both ways mate
You will never be able to install OTA`s if you are rooted as you have a custom recovery.
ok still some what a new bee im looking to get note 2 unlock and run it on att..i have a gs3 on att..
i like rooting to get rid of my crap ware on att..but unlock is nice pure TW and i like it..so if i root and theres a update do i just flash the new update ? coming from a rooted stock TW?
thanks
ROOT!
Then u can clean bloatware, like gmaps, g+, ChatOn etc.
Hi Ketan, i have a question for you, i want to install the rooted rom but before doing that i would want to take the nandroid backup of the stock rom. Can you please give me step by step guide as to how i should go ahead wih it . Thanks and await your reply.
Without root you can't do nandroid backup.

Phone won't unlock bootloader without bricking

Ok I've now recovered my phone 3 times after trying to unlock my bootloader, I've done it with freegee and GAIO both when i reboot I just get the LG logo then a black screen and nothing. I've tried with installing a new recovery as well as not doing the recovery install at all. Anyone have an idea why this would be happening?
GAIO doesn't root zv9, or zvb. For those you should be using fiddy root.
Sent from my LG-LS970 using xda premium
Im currently in the same situation. I used to be rooted on Lifeless but last week I had the same situation (LG screen to black screen).
Now, im only on stock rooted JB. I cant unlock bootloader because it wont let me. You should talk yo shelnut on the irc. When i talked to him last week, he said there is a way to unlock but there is a chance of brick with no coming back. I couldnt risk it, so im stuck on stock rom

You both would just use Loki's Locked Imperium. I've been running it and it's pretty nice for people that just can't unlock.
Sent from my LG-LS970 using xda premium
After recovering I was at zv7 so that's when I used gaio, the other times I rooted with fiddly. And I haven't gotten to the point of being able to install a rom. After unlocking the bootloader it doesn't allow me to ever even go to recovery.
Does the locked imperium not need a recovery to install with?

fiddy has a Universal root. Its for all versions. Maybe even run it twice to make sure root is good. Then either try freegee again or use Locked Imperium. For now anyway.
Sent from my LG-LS970 using xda premium
Well I can't use the locked imperium because my phone hasn't got the jellybean update yet . it's partly why I want to root.I used fiddly the first 2 tries to unlock. Do you think doing a bootloader unlock twice might make a difference?

The short and sweet is: Download zvb update,, update to zv9, root, push zvb uodatebto /cache. Hang on, I'll edit this with a link.

awesome looks like i just need a rooted zv9 to do this, thanks alot!
Also, you don't have to use rootkeeper. Just use fiddy619 root for everything. So zv9, root using fiddy, push zvb update to /cache, root zvb using fiddy root again. I can't remember if it freezes at 4GLTE screen or not. If so, do this. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=38887359&postcount=155
edit. You dont need to rename the update either
Worked like a charm! Never had any lockups or anything. Your the man!

I'm curious. Did you run root twice? Or just the once when on JB? I'm assuming you unlocked.
Also, I'll rewrite those steps and put them in my guide. Tomorrow hopefully.

I only ran root once. I haven't tried unlocking yet though at this time as I'm worried about having to unbrick again. If you want me to try for the guide your writing though I would give it a try.

Sarge, are you sure about that? CF Autoroot installs a 4.1 recovery. Isn't having a non-stock recovery causing OTA updates to fail?
You can revert to stock recovery after you have rooted though.
When you get the OTA update you can (supposedly) use CF Root again to root the 4.3.
Yes Ranger ....sorry...
If you've got 4.3 then CF will give you the 4.1 3e recovery...and of course the step will fail....
If you are on the ATT version of the device with the 4.1.2 original rom then it will work..
The threads are getting mixed heavily with 4.3 official rom questions ...which we obviously don't have ....and this old guy gets them confused....
However ...
Since CF is modified for use with different carriers ...
Chainfire may have updated files for the 4.3+ users ...
I don't use them ...but it's worth a look ....g
