How? I've installed 4.1.2 stock. I go back into download, Odin then cf autoroot plug in my phone. Odin sees it fine. Hit start, tries to install, hangs then it says failed.
I don't know any other way to do it.

Ok, I was running deTmobilized 1.5, I flashed enewmans firmware update zip (no wipe) rebooted. Then I booted back into recovery, did a full wipe, flashed loserskater's rooted rom, and now I'm running rooted ota 4.1.2 with cwm touch recovery still intact... took all of 10 minutes maybe, no pc, no odin, all from my phone...

Just to check, in Odin you see something like "<ID:0/005> Added!!" right?
Are you using the stock USB cable?
if both are yes....no idea, sorry.

Yes both are yes. Ill just wait.

It sounds like you have an Odin problem, not a CF Autoroot problem.

Where can I find the rooted stock Rom for the new OTA 4.1.2? I searched and looked and could not find it.

It certainly is possible however I used 4 differnt versions of Odin. I used Odin fine to return to 4.1.1 stock the upgraded so I don't think Odin is the issue.

Upgrade 4.1.2 using ODIN

Was about to update my Note 2 to 4.1.2 using N7100XXDLL7_N7100OXADLL4_XEF, after a bit of late night stupidity last night not being able to get into download mode i was set to give it another try, however when I download the above zip file I end up with this filename which I'm sure the extension isnt right?
N7100XXDLL7_N7100OXADLL4_N7100XXDLK7_HOME.tar.md5
So I just deleted the ".md5" im just wondering if I should just wait for the OTA, I want to keep root so I can use sky go.

If you flash it in Odin, You shouldt leave the name as it is:
N7100XXDLL7_N7100OXADLL4_N7100XXDLK7_HOME.tar.md5
With the 'md5' extention
After flashing you might root again with toolkit
Note that youre GNII will be fresh and all is to be erased

Yeah I understand it will be wiped, but thats not the end of the world, but flashing the stock rom using odin wont root the device or trigger the flash counter?

Then just flash the .tar.md5 file with mobile odin but deselect Inject Ever Root, Super SU and Mobile Odin. Unless the ROM you are flashing is rooted, then you will not be rooted when you reboot.

[q] odin, help, danger, and girls!

I may have lied about the girls, but here is my problem. I was on CM 10.1 Nightly 4/17 or something. I tried flashed Ktoonssez kernal....and it bricked my phone. I managed to get download mode but I am not sure what to do. Finals are coming up, and I have some lecture recording so if there is anyway to get everything back. If not I still want to stay on CM 10.1 I cannot enter recovery but before I flashed I made a nandoid back up in TWRP. IF anyone can help me ASAP I would really appreciate it!!!!
Came for the girls, disappointed.
Flash a stock ROM via odin, factory reset from recovery, flash TWRP, restore backup.
PS it's kernEl

Okay I think I scerwed it up even more.
I did the odin think, but now it doesn't even boot. It doesn't charge either, all it does is vibate whenever I try to boot it up. I cant get into Recoevery or Download. I think I hard bricked it, Will I need a Jig?

This 4.3 image worked fine for me as well. I installed twrp and got root access.
After you install twrp, I booted into recovery mode and took a backup. While exiting twrp
to reboot , it asks to install superSU. Say yes. After phone reboots usual rooting process begins.
You may have to download more as part of superSU.

[Q] VM S3 can't get newest update

First of all, I really appreciate the help and expertise this forum provides!
So back in June I rooted my phone with directions here on xda. I am an extreme noobie (in my 40's) and had no business going down this road lol! I used the Phil Z method and everything actually went pretty smooth. The problem came when I tried to unroot the phone to get the latest software update. I eventually had to take my phone to a schiesty cell phone repair store. just to get the phone working again.
The problem is that I still can't get the latest update. The update fails because there is "not enough space available to download system update." The picture I attached shows the screen in download mode. It seems that not all of the original root was removed.(?)
Does someone here have an idea what I can do?

Here's the issue I'm having, that thread linked says it will flash a pre-rooted NJ1 rom - ok fine... But as far as I can tell, no one has specifically said they have flashed his pre-rooted rom on top of a stock NJ1 rom. They've all upgraded to NJ1 from NE# using his method.
Obviously the NJ1 'upgrade' was at least in part an attempt to prevent rooting, and I'm not experienced enough to unbrick (or effectively undo) whatever may happen in a botched attempt.
I'm assuming once you're on NJ1 stock rom, rooting is not possible?
