I have gone to youtube and watched videos from bowmen about unlocking the phone before you install your rom...I can not find any unlock programs...I also have another question is it possible to put the droid os on the touch pro 2?

Searching does do wonders. Seriously tho, if you're expecting to be able to run this, you're going to have to do a lot of reading & research. Then when things break, a lot more reading an research. Then you create a post when you've exhausted all other efforts - and you tell us what you've tried, see how that works?
When you make posts like this, it's pretty obvious you didn't search, read, research - or really put any work or thought of your own into figuring this out.
We don't spoon feed.
HILARIOUS!!
Single best thread ever! This is too much. I love it. Where does the insanity stop? HAHA!
I wasn't even searching for the Android ROM and I found a writeup on it like 4 posts up from this one...
I'm gonna suggest that you seriously consider getting your head checked.
Hello everyone!
I thought I bought a unlocked phone from Fry's electronics! but it ended up as a AT&T SGH-i317 Galaxy note 2
I tried to take it back but they said the only way it to buy an international phone??
what I got is a Galaxy note 2 SGH-i317 AT&T android version 4.1.2
can anyone tell me the very best way to root this phone and the best custom recovery app for this phone and also
is there a stable or should I say the best reliable rom to use for this phone
I can see all the post for all this for this phone but I wish to only do this once
and not like all the apps I did on my old htc evo 4g
Thanks for all the help and advice
Bill
Rooting
yes I have gone through and have read all the post I can about rooting this Samsung Galaxy note 2 SGH-i317
I see two ways of rooting
1 using the program Odin
2 ExynosAbuse-v1.40
3 then there is this one here http://forums.androidcentral.com/sa...s/247891-t-guide-how-root-unroot-t-note2.html
I am sure there are other way I have seen on the web. But then we read about this knox thing about rooting
then ExynosAbuse says that way is the most secure way, safe from hackers
does this mean the other ways of rooting open your phone up for hackers to get in??
I am SORRY I can not write code I am not a computer or cell phone geek (brainy person in the computer world)
but I do not wish to brick, mess up my new phone!
So I am here to ask the question what is the best way to root and why
my aim is to get rid of the AT&T stuff I also would like to install a custom recovery / boot loader and a stable custom rom
on my Galaxy note 2! like I had with my old phone htc evo 4g
but from what I have read on the web it seem the Samsung phones have issues with rooting then the htc evo 4g did
so my I politely ask for help and information on this rooting of the Galaxy Note 2
to me so far number 3 from about seems good but then for safety I got to go number 2 from above??
HELP PLEASE
Bill
Root is done
well I rooted my phone as I have gotten no advice from here allot of peek-a-boos I see
I tried the Odin way but I kept getting a c++ error from both of my computers and the program had to be shut down?? oh well
then I tried the Skipsoft toolkit and that got it done
now is there any one out here that is a rom installing maniac?? Could you tell me please what rom out there that is fully functional and
stable like the stock rom on this Samsung galaxy not 2 SGH-i317 is!
my reason is to have a clean system on my phone with no AT&T gunk while I am on T mobile service
is there any help or advice for this or am I posting to dead air
Bill
Use CF auto root....found in the development section under the same name...
Verify that you are using root for the 4.1.2 firmware..and done...
Don't use those odd root methods or you'll have issues...
CF auto root is the root standard for this device...
Once rooted...you will want to flash a custom recovery and make a full nandroid backup of the device...(I use TWRP recovery...but you can use CWM as well without issue)
Both recoveries are also available in the development section in their respective threads ...
Store that backup on PC so you don't lose it to bad sd cards or deletion...
And do "NOT" upgrade your bootloader....or you'll never be able to go back to pure stock later if desired...
Read read read...and go slowly for comprehension...
Happy flashing....g

I have a flashed Note 2 to Boost mobile (had it done at a store). Is there a guide to backup my flash settings on my Note 2? I don't have the original donor phone since it was done at the store so I'd feel a lot better if I had some sort of image file that I can simply load onto the phone in case the flash on my phone is corrupted somehow (via update, etc.)
Also, if I were to upgrade to a Note 3, is there a guide to transfer my flash settings from the Note 2?
Thanks in advance!
j-
Im also interested in the 1st part of this question, how would one go about backing up all the settings changes that were performed during a flash? I have screenshots from DFS but is there a faster way to restore them without manually inputting them again?
Just YouTube galaxy to boost and there are some good tutorials in what you need to do.

What does this have to do with backing up flash settings once a phone has been flashed? Im a bit confused...
Hi,
I have recently switched from iPhone to HTC One M9. The first day I installed the "Nougat" but somehow crashed the OS. I got it back with reinstalled OS from shop after 3 days.
Now I have couple of questions;
1- In recovery mode the option in S On. What does this mean? How can I turn it Off? What is the basis difference between these 2.
2- Why Can't I reinstall the OS in case of any other issue in future? If yes when any help on this and which version will work with this?
3- Like iPhone I can update the IOS through itunes, Is there any similar option for HTC One M9 to update the software via HTC Sync?
4-Any other help if you can provide to newbie
I know a lot of people had this discussion but sometimes it's hard to find
Regards

All you need to do is browse and read... Important things are usually at the top... s-off grants you more control over your device (but is now paid ?)...

1. S-ON is a security feature intended to prevent changes to the phone that may damage it. It is not necessary to achieve S-OFF in order to customize your phone (ie, custom recovery, root, custom ROM). However, you will need to unlock your bootloader for those things.
2. You can. The readme thread gives more information - look to the RUU section for information about how to go about this. If you've got questions, post them here.
3. Generally updates are done over the air (OTA) or via RUU. There may be some carriers that provide computer-based update software (Verizon, I believe, does this), but otherwise OTAs & RUUs are your options.
4. Check out the readme thread. It is long, no doubt about it, but will get you up to speed. And you can always ask questions about specific issues you don't understand or need help with.
