I just switched over from at&t Xperia ion to the note 2 and I was wondering if I would need to have at&t push internet settings to me if I use a custom Rom like cyanogenmod or aokp or paranoid android
Or even Jedi Rom

Your talking about data on the network correct ??
CM will contain the proper APN's to get network connection and data.
PA may not....
Once you flash the Rom you want, go into the APN settings and check...
You can find the entire APN list for all carriers in the dev section under the everything thread...and verify you have the correct one. If not, create a new one and save it to the new rom....done
Radio images will generally not be changed unless you push a stock build via Odin. so you wont need to worry about that unless there is a problem....g

Only official updates can be flashed using the stock 3e recovery. ...generally speaking. .
You will need a custom recovery. .
I prefer TWRP...but CWM is perfectly fine also. ...TWRP gives you more options and has better support. .
Edit: always use the latest version of recovery. .regardless of which recovery you choose. ..
And once you have your recovery flashed..run a full backup of your current rom. Keep 1 copy on the external SD card, and send a copy to PC as well.
Then you are prepared.
Note: TWRP will allow you to back up the EFS folder and modem information. You select these as options in the backup process.
It is always wise to select yes on these files. ..or rather. ..all files until you are comfortable with the flashing process. ..as these files contain your IMEI number and other critical files needed for device function. ...g
How do I get to download mode after using the cf auto root. I can only get to stick recovery

SENT FROM MY SAMSUNG GALAXY NOTE 2 USING TAPATALK 4 BETA
Mobile Odin will push your new recovery just fine. ..
Ignore the bootloader altogether. ...because once you have root with a custom recovery you are unlocked. .
You can push any kernel using a .zip file from your new recovery. ..
Download mode is opened by turning off the device. ..
Then push and hold volume down. ..home button. ..and power. ....
Once DL mode is open....push volume up when ready to flash a file. ..
Use PC Odin. ...IMHO.....and don't change and fields when it opens on PC.....g
Thanks for the help. I'm a total noobie to the note 2. With the chorus ion you had to have unlocked bl for every thing

Enjoy the note 2...it's a fantastic device. ..g
Few more questions: what kernel would you prefer for aosp Roms(specifically ultimate kang and paranoid android and PAC man)?, can i flash back touch wiz Roms after having aosp?, what kernel would you prefer for touch wiz based Roms?
SENT FROM MY SAMSUNG GALAXY NOTE 2 USING TAPATALK 4 BETA
For TW based Roms.....I really like saber kernel ...
For AOSP....I like the dual boot devil kernel ...
Both run excellent ...and have good battery life ...
Yes you can switch back to TW roms easily...so long as you "fully" wipe the device before flashing...
The radio image is to be left alone...as it will not be touched in the flashing process ....g
What touch wiz based ROM would you recommend. I tried the noteorious prime ROM and i was having lte problems so I'm looking for another. Right now I'm running pa 3.55 and it's a real battery killer so I'm looking for one with touchwiz base that's smooth fast and has great battery management

Here is link to twrp recovery. It is more advanced than cwm. You will have to mess around to find out where everything is in it. But its nice since you can flash multiple files at once.

I have clock world recovery installed during my root process and I am able to use it manually how ever when I attempt to use rom manager its asking me to install it again but it's not giving me the option to select s3 for at&t, and when I try to install a rom manually via recovery mode its saying aborted.

i had a similar issue to this a couple days ago. i was getting install aborted status error 7 when trying to flash cm9 nightly. i updated my cwm to the latest version (5.8.4.7) and it worked perfectly. also note that when flashing with cwm v5.8.4.7 you have to flash from internal sdcard. (i got confused by that because i usually flash from external)

So here is my deal, I have been flashing custom ROMs on my TMobile Note 2 and I think I may have made an error one ROM in particular. WanamLite ROM. I have TWRP and noticed that ROM uses CWM instead.

From all the all roms I have seen, its not available yet...
And as for the patch I was thinking of trying it but im afraid of bricking my phone. You can flash that rom as long as the rom doesnt install two files( which are carrier related). I just cant remember what files. Just read in that thread and look for those files. when u download the rom use root explorer and check that the rom doesnt have them in there.
Let me know how it goes ?

So to confirm, you tried the patch at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2086394 and you got stuck on the flashing Samsung logo? Me being the noob that I am, I (stupidly) decided to simply go ahead and flash the N7100 version on my L900 following the instructions for the N7100 (original) varient. It of course bricked me, never got anything beyond the flashing Samsung logo, just does that forever until I pulled the battery.
However, by attempting to flash it I seem to have created other problems and here's where I'm stumped. I am now unable to restore my TWRP Nandroid I made of my stock rooted MK4 before flashing, restoring that results in getting stuck at the flashing Samsung logo (again). It doesn't matter what options I restore in TWRP (System, Boot, Data, etc) it has the same result: the flashing Samsung logo forever and ever and ever. I read somewhere that 4.4 (the DN3 ROM) messes with partitions because it enables multi user support...could that have anything to do with it? The only way I have been able to get my device back working is flashing stock unrooted MD4 TAR through Odin. I'd really rather not start from scratch though on my settings and everything though, and the only backup I have is that Nandroid, no Titaniums or anything else. Can you help me restore the Nandroid or is it a lost cause?

Well I haven't installed Philz recovery yet, but considering my Nandroid was made with TWRP will Philz even see it? The only reason I ask is because IIRC Philz is based off of TWRP, no? What I'm getting at here is that I'm pretty sure Nandroids from different recoveries, for example CWM and TWRP are completely incompatible right?
If I can't restore the backup I made from TWRP in Philz am I dead in the water? If so, I guess I learned my lesson, that is to have a contingency plan such as Titaniums in place (particularly for settings). I guess I really didn't expect a Nandroid to just fail spectacularly...if TWRP really is completely borked up with backup/restore on 4.3 it would be nice if they had a warning somewhere in the recovery or on their site. I would think that would be kind of important to know before you try to use a backup made using their recovery...

Okay lets cover the backup types first. Philz will backup/restore in both twrp and cwm format but you have to select the option. Now about your backup it will still be no good since it was created with twrp.

now that we have 4.4.2 there shouldn't be a reason we cant get this rom ported
I've been searching and reading for last couple days and haven't been able to find a definite answer. I'm using note 2 i317 at&t with stock 4.3 out of the box. I've been able to root it and get past Knox successfully. My question is can I install a custom recovery using stock 4.3? I'm wanting to use xposed framework and I want to be able to make a backup and have recovery optons. I've heard it may not be possible on 4.3 due to possible locked bootloader and the Knox thing. Any help is appreciated.
Just flash your custom recovery using Odin...
The Knox bootloader is generation #1...and does not prevent the flashing of custom recoveries or kernel images. .
Edit:...custom recoveries will trip the Knox counter...and void the device warranty. ..
Once you have a custom recovery. ..you can create your full nandroid backup...
Then you'll be able to do anything you want with roms etc....g

Not exactly. ..
Once you root...or flash a custom recovery. ..you will trip the Knox counter...(bootloader flag)
Effectively. ..that will void warranty...
However. ..This flag will not effect using your nandroid backup to restore the device if you should need it... (store that backup on your PC for safety)...
But if you don't care about warranty. ..then a revert to stock 4.3 is quite easy...minus the tripped bootloader flag....g

I just used Odin and flashed phils cwm file. You can get it in either a flashable zip or and Odin flashable file. The bootloader not really locked from what I understand it just won't let you replace it with an earlier version. Basically no problems flashing roms and kernels and such. You just have to kill the Knox security deal with super su

I just used Odin and flashed phils cwm file. You can get it in either a flashable zip or and Odin flashable file. The bootloader not really locked from what I understand it just won't let you replace it with an earlier version. Basically no problems flashing roms and kernels and such.

I think it does. Basically load up Odin have your phone in download mode and put the recovery file into pda slot make sure Odin recognizes your phone and hit start.

What version of Odin did you use or should I use? And can you send me a download link? And I just put the recovery file into pda slot and flash that's it?

IV recently moved to a Nexus 6 but want to root my old note 3 and install a newer ROM. Which guide do I follow for the baseband and Android 5.0? It's been updated to the lastest version OTA. Thanks everyone

I used Odin to flash TWRP and then used TWRP to install SuperSU. Note: If you're gonna do that, be sure to boot to TWRP immediately after you install it (home+vol-up) when Odin reboots it, then immediately install the SuperSU zip, otherwise it has a tendency to uninstall TWRP on you as soon as it boots into the system. NOTE: If you do this, it will for some reason break your Back button. You can flash idleKernel to fix that.
Flashing SuperSU should disable KNOX. FYI, ROMs for most Note versions will work on the canadian version/N900W8/hltecan. I've installed N9005 and N900T ROMs with no issues, just be aware you might lose NFC.
