Hello , this is my first post, i 've read a lot for my 2 precedents phones, galaxy S and ACE.
I just bought the Note 2 that i just want to root.
I saw different methods , i really appreciate the Chainfire CF-Auto-Root v1.0 because it stays with stock recovery.
My problem is warranty. I understand that i can reset my counter to 0 with Triangle away . But after i have to unroot to get back warranty.
The only method i saw, is to flash ROM with Mobile odin
But my note 2 doesn't come with stock ROM but with my operator ROM which is ORANGE.
I searched on samfirmware, there is no such French Orange ROM for Note 2.
So I wonder if There is (or will be) a method to Unroot without flashing new ROM
or a method to create a flashable ROM from my untouched Note2 (which i think is just a dream )
or do i have to wait Orange post a new rom for the Note2
Thank you for reading

Better wait for a Orange rom you can flash with Odin after you choose to unroot. After flash perform a full wipe in settings, backup and restore, restore to standard or something like that. After the flash and restore you`re in stock condition
Thanks.
So it means that if i want to root now , i loose my warranty till orange would like to post a new ROM.
No other way

If you root now and there is a problem with the device and you turn it in rooted an with no original firmware, it may lead to the loss of warranty. You may have to pay for repairs out of your own pocket then
Than you so i will wait.
and pray chainfire or someone esle post something to unroot without flashing,
because if not i will certainly wait very long after Orange
If you root with Chainfire's auto root, you can unroot from super su setting, there is option to unroot completely. May be it leaves some footprint but I don't thing it is visible normally.
But don't forget to remove everything if you have pushed manually in system rom(like some mode or application you have copied) after unrooting you can't remove.

I thought unroot in super SU was only temporary for developpers or to use applications that won't start if phone is rooted.
I will try it on my galaxy ACE. And hope it will work in the same manner on the note2.
thank you.:good:
OK. Thank you dr.ketan.
i found the option in Super SU
But i wonder if,as The note 2 is new , unrooting could be also different as other phones. And perhaps unrooting method of Super SU won't work on Note2. Or unrooting is universal for all android phones.
Any way to know in an other way than trying myself ? .
Off topic: I know i'm new user but could someone tell me how long do i have to wait before i do not need to write CAPTCHA each time i want to post, or is this last forever for everyone?
Supersu works where it is available, but if you have rooted device with kernel integrate with Supersu, it will remain root device on next boot..

Hey dr.ketan!
I've been looking for an answer to my issue but could not find it so may I ask you for help, please?
I have rooted my SGSIII (the process added CWM and superSU).
After a month I recieved the update to JB4.1.1; I installed it and the root acces was disapear but SuperSU app stills there!!
I want to root my phone again, Do I have to uninstall SuperSU before I manage to root with any method for JB 4.1.1?
Thank you very much!!!:good:
SU Not working
I attempted rooting my AT&T SGH-I747 Galaxy S3 (Android 4.3) using CF's Auto Root. Installation went fine, rebooted through recovery.That's when things went south. I keep getting Android security warnings, and SuperSU continuously FC's. Root checking apps are unable to get root access. Any ideas to get it working?

Noob here, first off I unrooted a while ago, then took the ota 4.3, is the bootloader locked? Cause according to the cf auto root site if your bootloader is locked you'll probably brick your phone if you flash the auto root? Also do these steps have to be in order? I tried rooting by other means and installing supersu first, wouldn't work so I removed knox with the script, and then updated supersu in the play store and still nothing, can I try to flash cf auto root now and then update supersu in the play store? Thanks a million, need this thing rooted

Well, I'm not bricked, so I think that answers your question about the bootloader.
Do you have a custom recovery installed? I assume so since you say you flashed the Knox remover script. If you do have a custom recovery installed, just flash the SuperSu zip, then update in the Play Store.

Ah it is so nice to have root again... Thank you so much for putting up with a noob.
Crazy events of a noob that lead me to root
Installed ota 4.3
Tried to root and install superuser by odin and then custom recovery to flash
Root didn't happen because of knox
Could only get to CWM custom recovery if it was right after odin and battery pull?...
Flashed the script to remove knox, which did remove knox
Tried the same root method as above and no root access
Tried supersu and then updating in play with no success
Changed security update settings etc nothing
Reset delvik, cache, permissions, etc nothing
Different root method and files for odin, and custom recovery stuck
Used files from this thread, went into custom recovery and flashed supersu
Installed supersu from play store...
Updated the binary using custom recovery
Rebooted...
ROOT access, all root applications work fine and root sticks even after reboots
I never messed with cf auto root method
THANK you guys for your time effort and sharing, helps noobs out like me a lot!
Sweet! I've missed root since I upgraded using the OTA file you provided. Looking forward to much other great things coming from you
Thank You

Method two absolutely worked. Thank you so much. I was scared to flash TWRP but knowing you did it gave me the courage. Have full root and happy
questions about this root
Hi, I'm a little nervous with this root but I need the root as the phone is useless without it.
I have the [email protected] galaxy s3 I747 will all these files work with it im just double checking.
Also do you flash the knox remover the same way as you flash other things with the pda button?
Will I still be able to do factory restores?
Also I saw that knox remover removes a lot of apps, Can you install these deleted apps from the market if you need too?
THanks please let me know asap.
THANKS!!!! your a lifesaver didn't know how much longer i could take without root
Dunno where you guys got your 4.3 update from and how you got it working but I did the OTA and Root just does not want to stick. I used knox remover and Cf auto root but it loses root after a restart. SuperSu never opens and crashes as soon as you open it. I have a feeling Cf auto root is just not compatible for the ota 4.3 i747??

The second method worked great. I believe (and the way that worked for me) that you use your custom recovery to flash the knox script, not using Odin and pda. I don't think it removed anything other than knox, there is a different script for removing knox and att bloatware. Should still be able to factory reset... But can't guarantee that.

Root & Knox
When you go to Settings/More tab/Security/Device Administrators, You have KNOX and Android Device Manage. Both are unchecked on mine. So does that mean Knox is not working if unchecked and safe to try to Root?????

Those settings are just for granting device administrator privileges. If unchecked, Knox is still doing it's thing, just not at an administrative level.
Yes, it is safe to try and root.
I have Android Device Manager as admin. That way if I ever lose my device I can just log in to the Play Store and locate and / or wipe the device.
To do this just flash the recovery.img file using odin and clicking the pda button correct?
Is there a way to freeze Knox instead of deleting it in the event I would want to go back to full stock?
After you are rooted, use an app like Titanium Backup(pro) or My Backup pro. Both will freeze it.

Thanks indymx, may get the nerve up to try it on my AT&T S3. Let me know if you run into any problems. Guess Rom Manager and other programs that require Root are working Ok and you have rebooted few times to be sure it keeps Root?? Have Happy Thanksgiving.
I've read as much as I can and I just need a little more help. I want to be able to root my T-Mobile Galaxy S3, SGH-T999.
1. Is there any other way to pull files from /data/data without rooting?
2. Can I just do a simple root and then later root with CWM or TWRP using another option?
3. I thought rooted was rooted, what is the need for "insecure boot"? Is that the only way to get a file image backup of my partitions?
4. None of the rooting options in the Skipsoft Android Toolkit wipe the device, correct?
5. Is the only way to be able to "recover" back to stock by installing a "custom recovery"?
All of the options include "custom recovery". What if I just want to root the device and install a custom recovery later? Or it custom recovery included in all the options so I can get back to stock if I mess up? Thanks!
I am not sure why you'd need to go to such extent.
By your question on Insecure Kernel, I assume, you have Stock 4.3 update. If so, please flash SuperSU Zip via Custom Recovery. You can Also flash Root66 of 4.3 (UVUEMJC ) to get Root as well. None of these methods are destructive and make you loose your data.
As to your other questions, /data/data should be accessible read only to Good File explorers such as ES File Explorer. My Backup Pro should be able to backup those files too. Insecure boot is needed to root as SELINUX Enforcing will not let you have Stable Root. Best Flash ATT Insecure Kernel Posted on this sub forum. I don't understand what you mean by "Recover to Stock".
can't do anything without root
I tried ES File explorer and 2 others, they show /data/data as blank. Most everywhere I've looked says you have to have root
In that case please post your Current Android version and what you see under Baseband. What step we take next depends on this information.

Thanks, this is great. I rooted the same model phone that was on OS 4.1.2 by uploading root66 with Odin and it worked in one step. I see now that root66 is not the way to go on the 4.3 phone just yet. I will follow your tips. I see too that I have to get rid of Knox and make sure the recovery partition does not get reset. Think I should put busybox out there too, or with TWRP and SuperSU do I have all I need?
Thank you very much for your help!

Hello, I was trying to update my note 2 with DN3 kitkat rom today.. But didn't work! :/
I rooted the phone. I got correct root access.
Then followed the instruction to flash the ROM.
After reboot, I could hear the welcome sound(new) and saw the samsung animated logo..then it stuck there. I waited for some 15mins, but nothing happened, only the animated samsung logo.
I saw an issue in TWRP.. saying there was a problem with permission. I don't know what was it. I tried to fix permission, but it failed.
After nothing worked, now I am in the process of recovery from kies.
Perhaps I didn't have the right step by step guide; from rooting the phone to flashing it. :/
If someone could please help, would be great!.. I really want to flash my phone for the DN3 custom rom.
Thanks.
Why do you need to root when flashing custom rom? It is already prerooted. You only need recovery.

As per rooting instruction, it is mentioned that the device must be rooted before flashing a custom rom from stock rom.
While installing the recovery the device is rooted or another way that I tried was to root by CFroot first, which was successfully done then I got the super user access to install a recovery like TWRP,,

Hey, everyone. It's been a long time since I've rooted my phone. I ended up hard bricking it and getting a new one. (I tried using ROM Manager to update my Clockwork Mod and it downloaded and installed, and when it said it needed to restart the device, I accepted, and that was the last time I was able to use the phone).
Anyway, I got it replaced and I haven't rooted it. It's been about 8 months or so and I've decided I want to root my phone again. However, after doing a little research, I saw that rooting is now different when the device is running 4.4.2. I want to be able to run CyanogenMod and flash nightlies and whatnot. Is it safe for me to root my phone and flash CyanogenMod? If so, could someone direct me step by step to doing it? It's been so long and I don't want to brick another phone.
tl;dr -> havent rooted a phone in almost a year, kinda forgot how. SPH-L710 running 4.4.2. is it safe? how do i do it? i want cyanogenmod

you wont brick it by rooting but here is 3 methods
1. first and mostly recommended flash Philz recovery for the D2Lte in Odin just make sure your on the latest one then root your stock rom with the option under Philz settings called Re-root(SuperSU)
2. you can use any recovery and flash the SuperSU zip from Chain fire
3. you can just use TowelRoot for the actual rooting process then download SuperSU and BusyBox from the PlayStore
method 2 implies that you already have a recovery installed
method 3 will give you root but no recovery

Towelroot is super easy to use, its a one click method.
You can find a full guide for the S3 here
Pretty simple to do though,
Download the TowelRoot apps from http://towelroot.com.
Enable Unknown sources on your phones, normally this option located on Settings > Security.
Install the downloaded app (tr.apk).
Now run the app, just tap the “make it ra1n” button to start rooting.
Let the app perform the root job, wait for about 15 seconds and your phone will restart automatically.
As soon as the phone is turned on, update SuperSU to v1.99r4 or newer.

In my case, TowelRoot didn't work due to Samsung Knox secure boot locks the recovery rom. You can't either go to recovery mode at all or read your phone internal storage/external SD storage from TWRP. I flashed CF-Auto-Root-d2spr-d2spr-sphl710.tar.md5 and it would get SuperSU installed to your phone. The SuperSu stopped working when disabling Knox.
Alternatively, I tried to downgrade to the 4.04 or 4.1.2 stock rom by Odin, but failed. So far, I don't have any way to root my phone and install CM11. Any suggestions will be appreciated.
