On device root - Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II

Is there a way to get root on my note 2 without a computer. I ask this because the sprint note 2 is not listed as working for exynos abuse

I haven't found a method that doesn't use a computer, why can't you use a computer?

I used exynos abuse. In fact I have never hooked my phone to my computer except to transfer files. Although I was on ljc which still had the exploit

I can't use a computer because mine is broken. Is it possible to downgrade without root.

Try looking for the foxfi addon. I heard that it sometimes helps. Also read the instructions when your setting it up.

a lot of those wifi apps claims they work without root, but it is only for certain phones
root your galaxy s3, it is the only way
Ok do you know where I can find a link on how to root the phone? I dont want to brick it since I just got it.

Where are the settings? Not in foxfi?

I've read that foxfi is not yet ready for our phones, maybe in the next update.

If your on the unlimited plan you cant share the network. They block it that's part of the contract no tethering or hotspot.

Worked fine on my phone before I rooted.
Any updates on this issue? Does rotting help make Foxfi work on our S3?
If you are rooted why don't you just use the wifi tether app for root from the play store. I just set my device as a galaxy s2 in the device settings in the app and it works. I am on the unlimited plan.

What settings are you referring to? Foxfi doesn't have any settings options that I've seen.
Yeah there really aren't any settings for this app.
When I try it on mine seems to start ok on the phone but computer can not connection to it.
I have even tried on my old sensation and it dont work with viper rom. Or a stock one s.
I've had the same problem with FoxFi. Install SVTP and set the profile to Samsung ICS. Still $15, but only once and its the only hotspot app I've found that can get around Tmobile's blocks on my stock nonrooted T999.

Anyone else. ...

Is anyone else going on hold off on rooting, installing custom recoveries and roms because they lost their imei on the s3? I know I am.

I was gonna hold off on rooting, but I gave in today. as for ROMS, I'm jumping on them as soon as they become available

Planning on holding off a week or 2 just to get the full experience.
It makes installing a good rom, that much better!
Sent from my SGH-M919 using XDA Premium HD app
I will be holding off as well. I'm kinda satisfied at the moment with what Samsung has provided. I don't like the bloat and I miss my root apps. But I think I'll be just fine for a month or so.

With the 2GB of ram is the bloatware still slowing the phone down.

Been waiting on my sd card from amazon that arrived today. I'm trying to hold off rooting until TWRP is ready.
I'm amazed I've lasted this long without rooting, but like others above I'm holding out until I can 'fully experience' the stock software Samsung tossed out there. I didn't want to drop 600+ on a new phone and not at least give the new stuff a try!

Yeah I was wondering the same thing. I was under the impression that the only way you could get a bad imei is if the phone was lost or stollen.
Sent from my SGH-M919 using Tapatalk 2
Well back when the s3 originally came out we had a bunch of people randomly lose their imei. I would show up as just 0. And there was no efs folder to back up because it no longer contained imei.

root with a mac?

Can anyone tell me how to root with heimdall? I could never figure it out with any of my phones, always borrow a pic but I don't have one accessible to root my note p600
Nobody

As far as I know Heimdall for Linux isn't compatible with this tablet so I'd be surprised if it works on Mac either.

Sucks. Every one I know has a mac. Only reason I got one was for graphic design. Gotta buy a pc because I love tinkering with android so much.

How would i unlock the bootloader on 4.3

I have a Verizon note 2 i605 running VRUEMJ9 I would like to unlock the bootloader to flash roms or install a 2nd bootloader. I am rooted. I'm curious how I would do this I've searched around and have found nothing. Also I was wondering since 4.4 kitkat is coming out how would I upgrade if my phone is not activated. Thanks in advance
Sent from my SCH-I605 using XDA Premium HD app
This subject is posted all over the place, you can not unlock the bootloader right now, it is just not possible. We are all hoping for it, but we don't have any choice but to wait. Safestrap is not compatible with the phone either right now. I'm not sure about the non-activated update, but I don't see why it wouldn't work like normal.
