I know I can flash any custom ROM I want now or the rooted/odexed version of the 4.1.2 OTA, but just for a little while I'd like to keep the flash counter at zero.
I'm still on 4.1.1 because I just got my phone 2 days ago, and I flashed the non-tripping stock root odin package before I even turned my phone on. But now I see there's an update for 4.1.2 (that someone said has multiview???) and I was wondering if there's a way to get to 4.1.2 and root it without tripping the flash counter.
Ideas?
Exynos abuse exploit. Google search it after you take the update. Download it and run it.

I'm not questioning you (thanks by the way), but I thought the 4.1.2 update was specifically to fix that issue. Was that not for the Note II?

baseband UCALJ2
TRYING to install kies to see if that works, but it's giving me **** too.
Edit: It at least "tried" to update now but said update failed immediately upon the first restart... could my root be f-ing it up?
Anyone?

Get the update.zip file and copy to your cache directory .
Go into recovery mode (vol up +home+power) → flash from cache. and done ...It won't wipe your data... . .and you will get you multiview.
From your previous comment. ..don't worry about custom rom count. .it can be easily rest via triangleaway.

Try recovery mode →clear cache ..Then copy update zip into cache. .som3 people suggest full unroot before runing the update..try that. I ran the update.zip in my wifes phone today with this method.

Use the exynos abuse apk to quickly root. Quick question, are you using stock recovery?

Yes. I did the cache wipe thing and it still showed the error

Did. Still gave me the error when flashing in recovery. Also the root is like not working completely. Some apps don't ask for permission and so I can't give it to them.
Edit: bought supersu pro and it worked nicely. (the root acess, flashing still doesn't work)

I had to go to stock via odin because my backups weren't working(they always have before) after I flashed PACman rom and didn't like it. Once I got back to stock I tried restoring from my backups again and they don't get an error or anything but after I restart the phone is still completely clean without any of my data restored on to it. What do? Thanks
Edit: When it gets to restoring data it says .android_secure.img not found. Skipping restore of /sdcard/.android_secure.
Sounds like a corrupt backup, you may be SOL. I could be wrong though and someone else will chime in. Good luck.

It's not a corrupt backup. They've all worked previously.
Maybe you could try reinstalling the custom recovery in Odin.

I have tried that and I've tried both my backups from twrp and cwm
Are you sure that the backups were able to fully restore previously?

Need help. I'm trying to install twrp on my note 2 but its like nothing is happening. When I go through the process, odin says pass and such and then the phone reboots, then when I power off and go into recovery, its still stock. Then when I reboot, go to about phone and status, instead of modified it says Normal. Im using odin 3 3.04. Please anyone help.

you have to root FIRST, then you install a custom recovery..

So I found out that with every reboot it reflashes stock recovery so thats why it kept changing. So I turned off auto reboot and it worked, I was able to flash supersu

So I originally had a the touch wiz with T-Mobile and then I installed the Google play edition and ran it through the recovery. But I don't really like how the Google play works so I tried to reformat it and then it bricked (just stayed on the Samsung galaxy s4 start up).. So I tried to put other things like eclipse touchwiz but that made my phone stuck on the start up and made it shut down with a 3 sec vibration.. Only the google play edition works so far... It also help fix the bricks. So please help me try to get it back to the original touch wiz!
If nothing seems to work by flashing, then the only solution is to use Odin to restore your phone back to factory settings.

Out of curiosity - Did you try to restore your stock ROM back up?
I would also check the ROM thread if anyone else had similar issue and then go from there.

I've noticed you like CWM for your recovery.
Try installing TWRP and see if that helps. Our phone seems to prefer TWRP.

I'm afraid too lol, last time I used freegee, it bricked my phone. And I'm more used too CWM. Ive had several Roms installed, it makes no sence why it would start doing this randomly.

You probably need to use the sbl unlock in FreeGee's menu. Or teeny bins with LGNPST.
Maybe CWM isn't wiping things correctly. There's flashable zips for TWRP and CWMv so that makes it easy.
Sent from my LG-LS970 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Its pretty simple we didn't have CWM for our phones for a long time for a reason. TWRP is much more current and supports our phones.

Cwm is infamous for not wiping everything correctly. Twrp is built off the amon ra recovery which is a lot better at wiping than cwm is

He's not alone. PAC and Cyanogenmod have been freezing up on me for at least a month. I use TWRP. It locks up when I type most often and then quits my message and I lose it all. Im resetting to stock and back today.
ughh

So when you install roms, are you wiping /system, /data, /cache, and / dalvic?
If you're using TWRP 2.6.3.0, go to wipe, factory reset, then advanced and tick everything but internal storage. Then install a rom.
If you're still having issues, then in TWRP, wipe everything. Including internal storage. Make sure you backup your files. You will lose everything. Also make sure you have a rom to install or restore in TWRP. If you don't, you'll learn to adb sideload.
If this doesnt work, then LGNPST, or LGFlashTool.
