Flashing a kernal - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've only just upgraded to my n7100 and I'm a little unsure with flashing a new kernel, I'm running carbon and I'm wanting to flash the n.e.a.k kernel. Am I able to flash it in recovery (twrp) or is it wiser to flash in Odin instead ? I don't fancy bricking my device.

Either way is fine. Just use a tar file for odin and zip file for twrp. As long as you flash the N7100 file not the n7105 you'll be fine.

Custom recovery after ExynosAbuse

I have rooted my N7105 (Orange UK) successfully using ExynosAbuse. Now I would like to install a custom recovery without using a PC.
I can imagine doing this using Rom Manager, MobileOdin or GooManager, using some version of twrp or cwm.
Has anyone here done that, and what did you use?

You can use Mobile odin
First copy CWM recovery in tar (or get recovery.img from zip) to SD card
Open Mobile odin-recovery-select file you have copied and flash

Never tried this way, anyway thanks
I always use Mobile Odin Pro to flash custom recovery. It's easy and can done without PC (Just need to copy the custom recovery zip file to SD/internal storage to flash)
Great, thanks will try this. Any particular recovery that is known to work well with the N7105?

Error whilst flashing cwm + root

Im running a stock rom and kernel with a root using th exynos abuse app. I tried then flashing cwm using mobile odin. Now if I boot into recovery the initial GN2 screen with the model name flashes up before jumping all over the screen and going blank. I hold the power button down and it happens a second time before it boots normally on the third go.

Thanks....I'm travelling without a PC, but I'll hassle another traveller to let me use theirs when I find one.
So using mobile odin or cwm to flash twrp works differently than odin on pc?

In mobile odin for me failed. I tgink cwm works. But ususally I only have faith in Odin and adb.

I have used to flash zip many times
Copy flashable zip to sd card (int/ext)
Open mobile Odin
Select ota/update zip
Point to zip you have copied
Flash.

Yes I prefer it too over cwm. And is much faster too in creating backups or other tasks.

Just flash the twrp recovery file through cwm and it will handle the rest.

You can use Galaxy Note 2 toolkit (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1923956)
Use it to flash back to stock recovery and then use the tool again to flash to cwm.
Thank u guys for all the response. I got it without problems.

Sure you can flash any recovery via mobile odin pro. You will download and flash the tar file not the zip file (the same as pc odin). 4 example 4 latest philz recovery u will flash the file

why not ?
Mobile ODIN [PRO] is in a way replacement of the PC version, or might even better in certain aspects.
As mentioned earlier, you can just flash the .TAR or .MD5 file provided from Philz download page.
Same thing applied if you want to flash stock ROM (in .TAR / .MD5) from Mobile ODIN [PRO].
Good luck.

Yes, but one must use .tar archive instead of .img files.
