Ok so I got the GSM version today, I was using this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oSmd9ZbUH50&feature=player_embedded to help me unlock the bootloader, flash CWM, and flash the SU files. I unlocked the bootloader without a problem, just It did not delete all my data like the video said.
Once I try flashing CWM and looks like its fine, but after reboot when trying to boot into recovery, I get the Red Triangle with exclamation mark. I have tried flashing it a couple times, it still does the same thing. Can anyone help me please?
I just got mine today also, did you rename the stock recovery image before flashing cwm? I renamed it after and had the same issue so I reflashed cwm and all is good.

1) Play Store devices do NOT wipe when unlocking the bootloader. (We are still trying to figure out why.)
2) The Android with the red "!" IS the stock recovery. There are two files in you /system that reflash the stock recovery on every boot. If you want you custom recovery to stick, you need to delete/rename one or both:
/system/etc/install-recovery.sh
/system/recovery-from-boot.p

I didn't rename anything, just exactly how the guy in youtube has it. :crying: Do you have to flash a custom recovery after every reboot? even with the toolkit after i reboot, i get the red triangle.

Did you not read what I wrote? You NEED to rename one of those files for CWM to stay installed.

So pretty much without rebooting, I flash custom recovery, root, then rename those two files. correct?

Yup. Or if you reboot before renaming the files, just reflash cwm again once you delete then. No big deal.

This would have taken less than 5 minutes with the V7 Toolkit- boot loader unlock, root, rename recovery file, and install CWM/TWRP.
It is good that your trying other methods, though.

Mate I had the same problem. I got my device yesterday and unlocked my device with the tool Galaxy Nexus Root Toolkit v1.4. But it didn't allow me to root it. As I had ADB installed I tried to flash recovery trough it. But still no success. Here's how I did it.
Download Galaxy Nexus Root Toolkit v1.4. Enter the advanced settings.
Transfer su.zip to your internal memory and then "Boot into Temp CWM" trough that tool. Then you can root your device. Once it's rooted, download "ROM Manager" from the market. Accept the permissions it's asking for. And flash CWM recovery from it.
And voila. It worked for me.
Why did you use version 1.4 when you could use V7 which does all that for you in one click.
Ran into this version in a video I watched. So I just downloaded it.
Oh right you should check the development section for the newer version it is far more simple & self explanatory.
I'm done with rooting and unlocking. I did it already. Just explained how above.
No need for a tool no more.
Its useful if you want to relock your phone and go back to stock

I'm guessing it just worked for him..:good:
If it anit broke why try to fix it
Ended up using the toolkit. One question, the two files that need to be renamed/deleted so it wont go back to stock recovery, on the toolkit it says rename, though once i go on root explorer to see if the two files are still there, they disappeared. So if I ever wanted to go back to stock recovery for any reason, are those two files available anywhere? Or is there a stock recovery image?
Hi there fellow note users. I am currently using CWM and running the ported ROM with MultiView on my AT&T i317 Note2. I can't seem to get TWRP to take at all. I've tried 4 methods... flashing over in recovery, Oden, terminal and Goo Manager. All getting errors without install. Help please

I used goo manager after going to this link http://teamw.in/project/twrp2 and selecting my device. Pretty easy install from the goomanager. Then from goomanager I "reboot into recovery".

Yes. CWM and ported ROM. Everything works well I just want TWRP. But I guess I'll do with CWM. If it aint broke then why fix it. It works I guess. Thanks.

Check your build prop for device name. Maybe its not correct because of the Rom you're on. Whats the error you're getting?
Did you ever get TWRP on your phone?
I've had goofy issues with TWRP but much prefer it to CWM. Originally rooted using CWM and SuperSu and switched to TWRP when I flashed CleanRom several times via Romtoolbox pro I've flashed updated Twrp it said it was successful but when it rebooted was soft bricked! Had to use Odin and original CWM to get back in and re-install everything (nandroids were twrp backups) found file downloaded to sdcard that worked fine! Odd...
How can you wipe out all installed recoveries and start fresh? Via adb? Like to wipe Everything n start fresh advice? Running TWRP 2.4X -==

If by "installed" you are referring to the recovery program itself (and not your backups), you can only have one recovery 'installed' at one time as there is only 1 "Recovery" partition on the device (/dev/block/mmcblk0p9). So if you want to install CWM instead of your current TWRP (or visa-versa), either flash the appropriate new recovery zip via your current recovery... or Odin3 flash your desired new recovery tar. Either way, it will write to the same recovery partition. If you are referring to your backups... these are stored in the designated path you selected (either internal sd or external sd)... in the TWRP/BACKUPS folder. In that folder, you will have a device id #... in that folder are your backups.
Gotcha! Thanks the way it acted I wondered if there were "leftovers" in recovery partition or corrupt data. When I reflashed CWM or TWRP via ODIN it didn't say "Passed" instead "RESET" and I had to unplug phone and manually boot recovery which sometimes took a couple tries... Only boxes checked in Odin are reset time and reboot.

Which version of Odin3 are you using? When I used Odin3 v1.85 I would get the "PASSED" but with Odin3 v3.07, I also only got "RESET" (on an WindowsXP box)... but both flashed it correctly (and auto rebooted after flash)

hi all!
Just received my note 2 n7100 back from insurance claim (smashed screen) and they factory restored it
rooted phone and all was fine but i forgot to use root with cwm.
So i used Mobile Odin to install CWM but now when i try to reboot to recovery it freezes and restarts. The Samsung screen flickers and flashes for few seconds and restarts.
I can get back into the phone after a reboot but i cant install CWM.
I have flashed stock rom and was able to get into stock recovery then tried galaxynote2root.com method to root and CWM but still does the same.
any help?? xx

I'm trying to flash CWM on my non-rooted, fully updated T210R. I'm following the instructions on this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2433853.
Odin says it flashed successfully, and the tab reboots fine, but when I power off and boot into recovery, I'm getting the stock recovery. I've tried both the touch and non-touch versions, without success.
It's probably something small that I'm missing, but I can't for the life of me find it.
Any help would be appreciated.

1.Dont check the autoreboot. Ketut.kumajaya said something about the system is restoring recovery when rebooting
2. Try to redownload the cwm recovery.
3. If that didnt work, What odin are u using? Try 3.07 ..
4. You can also try twrp. I am using twrp and it is working great

I will recreate an autoroot package for you in my spare time. Samsung Android boot image has a known feature to patch the boot image and use it to overwrite the recovery image on every boot. This feature disabled in blackhawk kernel, some recovery has a capability to disable this feature as well.

Yes, you can flash it on stock rom (with CWM), but OTG isn't functioning yet.

1) I did everything in that tutorial and it worked without any flaw.
But when I rebooted the phone to enter CWM, my phone instead booted into stock android recovery.
How can I make CWM permanent?
2) When I look through custom roms on this site I have noticed the different labels(D2lte, D2tmo, D2usa).
Can you please tell me which label is with my Wind SGH-T999V so that I know which rom I can and cannot install.
1) Uncheck auto reboot in Odin, After flashing cwm passes unplug cable, remove battery, reinsert battery, and boot straight into recovery..
2) any in this forum should be ok

1) I did exactly that. The first time I got into CWM I flashed the superuser.zip file. After that I rebooted the phone and confirmed root was established. Then when I rebooted the phone to install a custom rom, I was instead booted into stock android recovery.

I dont think you understand what I am saying.
This was a unrooted phone. I flashed the PDA file via odin. Then I booted into CWM (for the first time ever) to flash the superuser.zip file (to get root).
Then I turned the phone on to confirm that the phone had been rooted, which it is.
Then I rebooted the phone to install a custom rom, but I didnt get CWM recovery I got stock android recovery.
There is a way to fix it if you search, but what I am saying is that you don't need to flash superuser even if it wasn't rooted.. It seemed like you wanted to flash a ROM so as long as you can get into cwm just flash the rom and you're good
Sent from my SGH-M919 using Tapatalk
Or flash root66 firmware, then install recovery whichever way you prefer. Just another option.
