Where do you follow the guide? Is it galaxynote2root.com or xda-developer? I followed the guide and worked fine with me. Good luck

Is your phone in download mode.
Also use the latest odin v3.07

S note missing after flashing Omega ROM V12 on SGN2 n7100
HI,
I installed OMEGA ROM and loved every bit of it.
this was my first time rooting and flashing all by myself.
everything went smoothly, but samsung apps store and SNOTE was missing, i re installed Samsung apps from an apk that i found on 4shared, but
when i tried to do the same for SNOTE , it installs fine, but doesnt launch,
I am using
Samsung Galaxy Note 2, N7100
i am running Omega v12.
i used Odin 1.85 to root my fone with clockwork recovery
I have not installed any kernel by myself, if the kernel was changed during rooting process i am not aware of that, or if the kernel was changed during flashing OMEGA ROM, i dont kno.
I am sorry i am new to this,
If you could give me an apk or tell me how to get it back, i would be really grateful,
I have to use Snote for my work, and today i am not able to work, but i love your ROM and want to use it,
Please let me kno if it is possible to install any stable version of SNOTE on my phone.
Kernel version : 3.0.31-679347 [email protected]#1
SMP PREEMPT MON FEB 04
PLEASE HELP

I think aroma installer has an option to install s note

Really ?? You can't root your phone !?!?!?!
What messages appeared when you're trying to root through CWM
but it can be rooted using the stock recovery too right ?
Did u try flashing another Stock ROM's for your region aside from the firmware that you're using ? Since the region of my phone is Philippines , so the latest firmware for Galaxy Y (Philippines) is GINGERBREAD.DXLC1 (The one with ICS-Style lockscreen(We often see this on Galaxy SII's phone or Galaxy Note from a Samsung Mobile store))
**** happens. Reflash whole of Stock ROM from Doky's post and root using stock recovery.
yeah...i was thinhing the same...i'll flashing it tonight.
i 've one small question. will something happen if i flash any older version or those which meant for other regions???like i've been a symbian user for years,incase i do this mistake it 'll brick my phone, an i've done it couple of times....
update: help me!!!!!can't revert to stock..... the message box in odin says write failed....

can you post here the exact things that you did? so that we can easily trace the error
if it shows failed. Disable your antivirus, if it can't be disabled, uninstall it. Stop kies too and it must work fine. If it doesn't work. Upload ss so that we can understand it

[Q] Rogers GS3 ROM Questions...

Hello,
New to android... I have searched and searched and read in a LOT of threads trying to get Cyogenmod 10 working on my i747m on Rogers.
I have found many guides and have managed to root my phone and tried installing Cy10 but got an error 7. I read that this was because of the wrong recovery version. I was told to get ROM manager and update through there. For me, however, the GS3 doesn't show up in the options.
Could someone please link me the correct files that I need? I think I know the steps, but it seems that all the files have different versions and are not compatible.
I'm trying to be very careful and not brick my phone, so I am reluctant to try anything that I'm not sure will work... I think that's why this is difficult (Rogers = AT&T? or not?, etc.)
Thank you in advance to anyone who is willing to take the time to help me.
I had the exact same problem as you and what I did was flash, if I remember, cm9 and go to ROM manager and then it would show me Samsung Galaxy s3(att).
You need to update your recovery I flashed the touch recovery from the toolkit and that worked for me

Do you remember which version of cm9? I tried that last night and I still got error 7, but maybe I used the wrong version. All I could find were nightlies, no stable ones for d2att (which is what I was told was our phone)

What version of the toolkit? I can only find 1.0 which gives me recovery 5.5
I'm in the same place. Rooted tried cmw and touch recovery both giving errors. Rom manager from the play store doesn't have an option for a different recovery for me.

Error 7 is means you don't have the right requirements to start with.
If you are trying to flash bell 4.1.1 on your Rogers device running 4.0.4, you must first install bell stock 4.0.4 from Sammy site or else things like will throw error 7 during install.
Read CM10 requirements carefully...
I had the same problem. I just upgraded the CWM version to the latest one using this (its the same step, just make sure you download the right recovery):

Get recovery from the main CWM site:
clockworkmod.com/rommanager

Go to firmwares.
Download the one for your phone.
Boot into download. Flash with odin.
The file u downlaoded is to be flashed via cwm or twrp. Not via odin. It will be a zip file. Flash the whole zip together.

the link you posted has two kernals for the i317 whats the difference? and where in odin does the kernal go? thanks again guys your all awesome
Have you gotten back into twrp recovery yet?
If youre stuck in a bootloop which it sounds like...hold volume up home button and power until device turns off and once you see samsung logo let go.
Did you make a back up before you flashed? If so restore it and youll be fine. If not then you need to remember this...always always make a backup. Every thread on here says make a backup before you flash.
And btw I dont hate noobs. We all were at one point and I remember how stressful it can be when you're unsure of what youre doing amd think youve bricked. Pm me if you need help. As long as either you can get into recover via the method I said above or alternative method is plug you phone in your pc, open up cmd prompt in then folder you put all your android root files. (Hold shift and right click in a blank space in the folder, then go to open command propmpt here. Then type in:
adb reboot recovery
That will also get you in recovery.

you'll need to change the 7z to tar gz and use heimdall, Frankly why not just flash existing roms in development sections with the new boot loader and modem if youre just looking to check it out?
try a search first. just posting and in doing it wrong place rubs some up the wrong way

check out galaxy s3 root .com
you would copy a superuser.zip file to your internal phone card
You would use odin to flash a ClockworkMod Recovery file to your phone (if you don't have it)
Next you would use push the correct buttons on phone to enter ClockWork Recovery mode
Once in ClockWork you would select superuser.zip on phone to install it. All instructions are on the website I mentioned earlier
Can you tell me what exact ROM you downloaded and where you got it from / who made it?

Unbrick 4.3 after trying to downgrade and failing

I tried to downgrade after the update and failed. My phone was totally bricked, I tried flashing TWRP, Philz touch, and CWN and could not get into recovery or anything. I came home and opened sboot.bin with a hex editor and found that SEAndroid in 4.3 is what allows everything to boot and it is write protected, so what i did was copied the sboot.bin into a MC2 Flashable tar and flashed it with Odin, and it worked. I then flashed the update, flashed Phils touch recovery and rooted my fone, now I am on a completely rooted 4.3
Here is a link to the file I used to Unbrick/Downgrade: http://myfavoritecontractors.com/4.3_Unbrick.tar
Several other people have verified they were having the same problem and flashed this and it worked, they also told me to start this thread so others could fix their fone
im on 4.3 stock i tried rooting with auto root using Odin but it didnt want to root the phone, it worked on 4.1.2 stock but not on this 4.3.. which sucks because i want to go on a custom ROM right now like paranoid android but cant cause i dont know how to root my phone since its 4.3 stock :crying: lol smh
Download twrp tar file and flash it in Odin then flash a stock ROM. That's what I did .

You are a god, worked flawlessly! I am going to wait for 4.3 via OTA this time instead of flashing the update though (didn't like the Easy Mode big icons etc)
Thank you for this, this is the only rom I can use to get away from the dreaded Kies error screen. However, I'm now stuck on the Samsung glowing boot screen. Any suggestions on how to fix?
Thank you
I have a MK4 tar that is flash able in Odin for those still looking to unbrick (and those who tried getting to my suspended Dropbox. ..) http://www.mediafire.com/download/7viivd985s7cp8l/L900VPUBMK4_L900SPTBMK4_HOME.tar.zip
After flashing a ROM or using Odin to flash firmware I highly suggest a data/cache wipe in recovery. 99.9% of the time it'll fix a bootloop (unless you've gone and corrupted partitions you had no business touching).

You should be able to flash a custom recovery, flash twrp, then go into twrp recovery and flash (mc2 back to stock unrooted with counter reset) you should be able to find that pretty easy and download it
Other than that, if you get the failed update screen, you can use kies
