Hi, could someone post an image of, or describe what the stock unmodified recovery image looks like on their AT&T Note 2? I flashed a custome recovery on mine, without ever actually seeing the stock one. And now I have to send it in for warranty and am wondering if mine is right. It "seems" like it's not because my android guy is lying on his back, with the door open on his belly, and there is a red triangle with an exclamation mark coming out of it.
I have used Triangle Away (the pay version to support the development) and my flash count is back to normal, and my system status says it's normal, and I have flashed the OEM ROM off of Sammy's stock ROM site that includes the stock recovery. But I just have a funny feeling about the way it looks.
Thanks,
If ur status says normal then ur good...flash count 0 all good ...that android guy means your in recovery, your probly not used to it cause it stock lol

That looks perfectly normal to me.

Yes. If you flashed the stock ROM using ODIN then you have absolutely nothing to worry about.

Yes mine says "Android system recovery <3e>" at the top as well and by the sounds of it, I'm ok. The thing that had me worried was the image of android lying on his back and the red triangle. That is what I was hoping others were seeing as well. In the past with my Galaxy SII and SIII, I remember android standing upand the triangle was yellow. And with the whole need for the app "Triangle Away" on modified devices, I was just a little curious as to whether the red triangle was stock.
Thanks,

So somehow someway my phone is on the "Galaxy S 2 Yellow triangle with exclamation mark" screen and wont boot up.
I simply wiped factory reset, and dalvik ( coming from Caulks Rom ) and then flashed Blazer Rom 3.7 and it never went past that screen.
My question is can i simply re root on my mac and would my phone go back to stock rooted OS? Or do I have to restore it through Odin?
Note I did backup my previous rom!
Sorry forgot to mention I cant access recovery either! I hold down volume up and power and nothing just stays on the yellow triangle screen...

Get calks format all ...flash it and then go to advanced and wipe system and then flash new ROM .... If it still doesn't work check md5 on the ROM that it's a good download if it's not redownload and flash ....you can always restore your back up

I would definitely recommend going this route. Follow the instructions in this thread it will help you to install ACS (CWM) Recovery.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1268037
for future reference recovery is volume Up + power. not down.
From the sounds of it id say you may need to flash more than the kernal I was in a similar situation where my recovery wouldnt work and I couldnt boot into the rom and I had to flash back to stock through Odin to get it working again. Then after that I re rooted and flashed a rom.

Im not sure, when it happened to me there wasnt a way. Its really simple though I mean when I did it I was back up and running, rerooted, and running a rom in about 10 minutes if that.
This is the file you would need to flash the stock tar file http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1409634 this is what I used then after I just re rooted.

I've been in this situation before, you have a bad flash.... you have to odin back to stock redownlaod the rom you installed and try again... the yellow triangle will probably still be there but the phone will boot. i bought a jig to get rid of my yellow triangle (It really bothered me and the jig was like a buck)

Yes that guide is for rooting but you can flash ROM's with Heimdall too. Just do a Google search for it and you'll see. Either that or find yourself a windows box and ODIN a rooted ROM with clockwork recovery and then restore your backup.

When i first got my phone and rooted it the first startup screen always said GTI9100 with a yellow triangle and an exclamation point and I know thats the international version of our phone Yesterday I unrooted for warranty reasons then when I re rooted using Qbkings latest method I realized my phone actually says Galaxy sII now. I think when I first rooted I must have used the root file for the international version or something. I was just wondering if that could have been why my phone would reboot all the time and shut itself off? It only started doing that after I rooted it and I have to say with my new root from Qbking my phone runs allot smoother. What are your thoughts?

If you use sfhubs one click Odin for future flashing, there will be no triangle. Every time I flash one of these leaks I use 1 click to go back to el29, add rogue recovery, and flash my ics from there. I don't ever get the triangle back, and the process to do it is super easy. You can even back up your current setup and restore it after you use the 1 click. Or use the app, but if you're flashing a new ROM, 1 click insures a clean install, keeps the bugs away.
ok so my kids mother wanted her gs3 rooted so i did she tried a few roms and the whole root thing aint for her.. so today i unrooted it but i forgot to use that app triangle away.. so basicly im screwed rite?? is there anyway to make it to 0 again?? she is not bringing it to sprint but just in case she ever does i dont want them to say she screwed on her warrenty cause the counter is at 3 and not 0..
Triangle Away doesn't work yet. Still waiting on an update.
I think there's a stock software you can flash that resets it. I'll look for it quick and get back to you.

yea but dont u have to flash that in recovery?? so ill have to root it again and flash a custom recovery again rite?? i already unrooted with odin its stock everything now recovery and all.. just the counter is not at 0.. do all the stores look into the counter being not at 0??
You'll have to flash root/recovery again in Odin, but as of right now, I think this is the only way to reset flash counter.
Takes 6 seconds in Odin and you're back with CWM and root, so it's not too much trouble.
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda app-developers app
Triangle away works just fine as long as your not on jellybean which triggers the counter on every boot. So wheather you use triangle away or the rom w/ reset you will need root or a custom recovery.
Just flash any custom recovery in odin http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1900492 which takes two seconds.
Reboot straight to recovery and flash zip in above post. You'll be totally straight afterwards. Dont even need to reroot. 2 step process
u guys think that they will look at her counter in case she ever goes to sprint?? everything else is stock just the counter says 3

I have the TMO S3. I was attempting to flash the latest Deviant Xone rom when this happened.
Ok, here's my Monday dilemma.
I just deleted the old file, and downloaded a fresh one (this new version). I had also went into recovery and had did a wipe of system and rom. I had just cleared the cache twice, when the TWRP screen popped up. The phone then rebooted, and only gets to the "deviant" boot screen.
I have tried to boot back into recovery, but it just gets to the TWRP screen, then reboots back to system, but still only gets to the deviant boot screen. I have done numerous battery pulls trying to get into recovery, but I think that for some reason, the phone has deleted my recovery.
Where do I go from here?

Yea, that's what I'm doing now. Just making sure I understand what I'm doing before I attempt to do it.
Ok, the first thing is when I connect to odin, the box that is supposed to be yellow is green. I still went ahead and did the procedure and it did say pass in the box. But the pc is not seeing the phone.
Also, when the phone rebooted, it rebooted to that Deviant boot screen still.

In any case, thanks to you as well. I've already flashed the latest Deviant, and in the process of reinstalling the apps through TB. Now my next quest is to try to find a stable kernel. I'm hoping that yesterday was the result of a bad download, as I did download the rom during that slow time goo.im was having. It took almost 45 minutes. It may have gotten corrupted during that extended period.

First, if you would have read the posts, the issue was resolved.
Next, also if you would have read, you would have saw that I said the box that was supposed to be yellow. The pass box is never yellow, but the smaller one under it when you first connect.
Now I don't mean to be rude or anything, but maybe you should learn to read before commenting. There are any number of adult educational programs.
