I haven't rooted and rommed in a long time. I was wondering if you guys could help me. I'm not a complete noob, I have some tech know how and I'm extremely good at following direction. What I need help with:
My phone is completely stock at the moment and I want to install a rom, maybe beastmod or one of the other ones. Which root method do I use if I want to install a rom?
correct me if I'm wrong, but I assume I use this method outlined here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1332103 to install cwm.
After I'm finished with that, I'm ready to install a rom, correct?
Also just in case, is there a method to recover from soft bricks, and go back to complete stock for warranty purposes?
thank you for the help, I appreciate it.

Yes, you can follow that, or if you want, I just flashed CWM in ODIN, then I flashed the Superuser update (instead of flashing the already rooted ROM).
Don't forget to Nandroid! That can help for soft bricks, so long as you can get back into Recovery.
From there you can flash any ROM you want, just make sure that you follow the instructions in the ROM's OP (wiping caches, etc)
Afterwards, if you do get soft bricks, here is the stock recovery: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1319830
and the stock kernel: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1311229
If you ever need to unroot: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1323878
I think I may be missing something, but I can't remember what it is.
Hope this helps!
That tutorial should work.
After you have cwm installed, you are good to go on a new rom install. Remember, only install roms for the Tmobile version GS2 , you will brick if you try a rom for the other GS2 models.
About soft bricks, just do the tutorial correctly and you won't need to recover a soft brick.

Lol, thank you guys. I'm not that big of a noob to try to flash a rom for a different phone onto my phone.
after you install CWM you need to flash the superuser.zip

There's a few people floating around here that's done it. And bricked.
I used the one click method to root and ROM manager that I downloaded from the market to install clock work recovery. Super easy and fast.

The way I understand it, that's not needed if the rom includes the super user apk.

When you wipe the data for each ROM(in CWM) when you're flashing it frees up the system partition to be used for the ROM you're trying to flash.

Help please!! currently on Universe rom & tried to flash sidways battery mod, i was instucted to flash cache & dalvik now the UI stopped working and wont restart. Is there anything i can do
Press and hold power until you reboot.. what happens?
Sent from my SPH-D710 using Tapatalk 2
it takes a few to come back, then goes to lockscreen and says unfortunately UI has stopped working
everything but system Ui comes back, i can still access recovery, im kinda freakin here due to the simple fact that i failed to make a nandroid backup
reflash the Universe ROM from recovery. Wait for the first boot up. Then try it.
OR you could use the One-click FI03 'no data' http://sxtp-forum.com/showthread.ph...3-(FI03-Modem-Kernel-ROM-Full-Restore-Rooted)
That should get you to a stock rooted (choose the preserver data version) and should at least be able to boot. [hopefully] Once booted to that update the superuser app - open it >info>'tap here to update binary'
Then apply a safe recovery via Mobile Odin (best bet because it won't give you that anoying triangle) Or use one of the One-clicks rwilco12 has put togher in his awesome repository. Agat's or Rujelus22's
Good luck.
do i perform calkulin's fomat all prior to this or just flash
Thanks a million bro, the reflash worked, i really appreciate all of your help, in glad too because, (yess i am a noob) & that i really like this rom. the mods.....well, not again...have a good one

Glad to see you got it working. It's always good for the community to know the resolution and outcome(s).
I found that running Agat's 5.4 or RU's 1.8 kernel's worked best for me on this ROM. I also am a big fan of it. Has just about everything I use and like and is quick and smooth.
Make sure you also get the modem that works best for you. Check the repository for those. I've had the best luck with the latest (FI25) other haven't; modems are very device AND location specific I've found.
Take some time and read through the stickies and posts of all the devs and you will learn loads.
Also It would be wise to make a backup/nandroid or two. And once you make it verify it! I use the AFV app from the market. Dead simple. I also keep more than a few nands on my SD card. at least two of the current ROM I'm on and a couple of other builds I switch between. Makes it easy to restore and fix things if I get a bad flash, install something that kills my setup or try a new ROM that just isn't quite ready for use as a daily driver.
Good luck, have fun.

Did this for the Galaxy SIII and figured I would do the same for the Note II as well.
This will take your phone back to UNROOTED stock as well as restore the STOCK RECOVERY, STOCK KERNEL, MC2 RADIO and FIRMWARE. It Will also RESET THE FLASH COUNT to no (0) and restore the official binary and system status as well. If you have updated to MK4 officially and have the MK4 KNOX bootloader with the "knox warranty void" status in download mode, this will REMOVE but NOT RESET it. So this is still perfect for a trip to the sprint store. Does exactly what an odin flash would without needing a PC. And unlike odin this gives you the ability to downgrade flawlessly from ANY firmware version. This is the ONLY way to come back from the dreaded knox upgrade.
NOW FOR THE INSTALL:
NOTE THAT FOR THIS TO BE POSSIBLE THIS MUST RUN COMMANDS THAT MOST ROM FLASHES DO NOT USE.
DUE TO THIS, USING GOO MANAGER AND ROM MANAGER TO INITIATE THE FLASH CAN CAUSE ISSUES. PLEASE MANUALLY BOOT TO RECOVERY AND START THE FLASH THERE.
As with most roms wipe data/factory reset prior to flashing!
I have always been a fan of clockworkmod recovery myself, but if using this I must recommend TWRP. On rare occurances, clockworkmod recovery has corrupted the cache partition when flashing this, causing issues with the second part of this restore. So use cwm at your own risk.
When finished you hit reboot as you would at the end of any rom flash but before the phone boots into the system it will automatically boot into my "special" version of TWRP and finish the process.(Which takes about 10 seconds).
When this is done you will be completely unrooted and back to square one with the exception of the internal sd card. (It will NOT be touched) So if you want to remain rooted then flash THIS (or click the little su guy below) after the restore zip before you reboot.
As far as I know there is only a 16gb version of the Note II for Sprint. If I'm wrong on that please correct me and note that this is ONLY TO BE USED ON A 16GB SPH-L900. This will most likely brick any other phone. And as always, FLASH AT YOUR OWN RISK. As I am not responsible if this makes your phone melt. This flashes important partitions so verifying the md5 is recommended. Think that about covers it.

Attached below is a flashable version of garwynn and EViL-KoNCEPTz chameleon fc/carrier fix and my special version of TWRP 2.4.2.0 with a /carrier wipe option for those who may need it. They are NOT required if using this restore.
Thanks for making this convenient return-to-stock zip and counter reset.
Just to verify, does your zip correct the problem with the carrier partition when reverting back to LJC after updating to LK8?

I was able to activate and update prl n profile but was still getting the chameleon force close if /carrier wasn't wiped before the flash. Seeing as how twrp doesn't have that option and most people prefer it over cwm, I am currently uploading a new version which will wipe the carrier partition too. With carrier wiped, coming back from lk8 was flawless
Excellent safety net. Thanks so much!

You probably dl'd it before I fixed it. It originally had a typo that caused the count and system status to not reset. It has since been fixed.
alrighty then. I have been playing with my phone for about 2 hours now trying to figure out how to get rid of CM10 so I can flash a new ROM. (had to find dev options etc.) I tried flashing a recovery image through the SGS tool kit, still had CM10. I tried re-rooting (not advised, had a small stroke while figuring out if I bricked or soft bricked) I just did a system wipe, also ill advised, it warned me that I had no OS (thats why we make nandroids like good lil boys and girls.)
For the love of Jeebus someone please tell me how to get CM10 off of my phone so I can flash a new ROM. can I un-root and re-root and start from scratch that way? is that proper? is there an easier way? Why am I asking all these questions?! (because no matter what, I will always be a NooB -.-')
I appreciate any insight you guys can give me, thanks in advance!

No need the one click will Unroot and wipe your device. If you care about what you have now then root, Install recovery, back up your rom, and then flash. If not then just one click as long as you're n att.

Great job.

The download link at dropbox for DN3_v3.1b_by_E-Team_(Trunks_Edition) - Fixed by SydneyBelinda.zip is full from too much traffic. I have PM'd OP. So how's about not posting every 30 seconds that the link is not working eh?
I won't be installing the new rom. I'll stick to a more friendly dev team.
I'll be donating to ptmr3 as soon as I have a couple extra bucks since he's the kind of dev I want to be around. No rom is worth being abused by the devs.

I took a crack at these instructions. I have to say they aren't the most informative.
It didn't work for me. I'd like to think I know what the hell I doing.
Unless there's no reboot in between the steps and you just flash your brains out and cross your fingers. Guess I could try that.
Not really understanding this from the instructions...
----> TWRP
(which version number ?, I used the latest openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.1-t0lteatt.img.tar flashed in ODIN) I've read that version has problems, but unconfirmed. I never had problem with it.
-----> FLASHED 4.3 BOOTLOADER VIA ONE CLICK.
(When exactly is this done ???)
1. I started from scratch with the One Click 4.3 leak.
2. Flashed stainless ROM, setup at least google account
3. Did ODIN TWRP flash
4. Flashed DN3 Sydney fix.
Rebooted didn't flash the Devil kernel yet since it says it's fixed the wifi.
Boot loop.
Maybe that's what was needed to do.

(which version number ?, I used the latest openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.1-t0lteatt.img.tar flashed in ODIN) I've read that version has problems, but unconfirmed. I never had problem with it.
-----> FLASHED 4.3 BOOTLOADER VIA ONE CLICK.
(When exactly is this done ???)
1. I started from scratch with the One Click 4.3 leak.
2. Flashed stainless ROM, setup at least google account
3. Did ODIN TWRP flash
4. Flashed DN3 Sydney fix.
Rebooted didn't flash the Devil kernel yet since it says it's fixed the wifi.
Boot loop.
Maybe that's what was needed to do.

I actually think the instructions are fine and the OP of this thread is awesome btw. I meant the ditto devs.
But in response to your question- you flash the bootloader first... which is basically what you did when you flashed the one click.
It also seems most of the problems with twrp 2.6.3.1 seem to be with the aroma installer.

Cool. Gotta run to a xmas program thing. I'll back down to 2.6.3.0. And try again.
And do you think you blow by the reboots and flash back to back to back, or reboot in between?
I've seen it done both ways.
Not busting balls on the instructions too much. But they leave a lot to interpretation. They are direct and to the point.
But that leaves it open to dumb ass questions. Like mine, do you reboot in between or not . : )
Thanks
OK folks, everyone needs to take it down a notch, although this thread is helpful...calling one rom better than another (well, at least more "solid") is not essentially what we do here.
We help, we contribute, we offer suggestions in a way that is respectful.
Any more off-topic junk in here, and this thread will be closed.
Final warning in here, troll at your own peril.

I would tend to stick with the exact instructions and reboot if specified or not.
And we'll ALWAYS have dumb ass questions lol But I honestly don't find your questions dumb at all.

You should reboot after every flash.

This thread is just how I got a good working non carrier branded rom going. That's it. It looks like the DN3 team opened up its thread so it might be easier to flash that rom since this guide is pretty much how to use there mods.
