Hi Guys, I have a N7105 that is running stock and is rooted.
I have never flashed a custom rom, because its all a bit above my head honestly and I didnt want to ruin my phone.
Of course, I realize that I am stuck on 4.1.2 whilst everyone else has update to 4.3
My first question is, what is the best way to Unroot my N7105, also the easiest, I cannot stress how uncoordinated I am at this kind of stuff, so I need the easiest way possible.
Then, whats the best Stock rom, because I love the S-pen etc and dont want to loose functionality of it, that I can flash?
Then, once I am done, will I be able to root my device again ?
Thank you in advance for any help, It is really appreciated!

u mean u want 4.1.2 rom or 4.3 rom ?
to be frank N7105 custom TW rom is not a lot, unless u take the risk and you know how to flash those Tmob ROM / AT&T rom (to be flashed on your N7105 device).
you can find those custom ROM under N7105 Android development forum.
If you want with the all original S-pen / Samsung feels, you have to flash TW ROM only (stock / custom).
Currently for N7105 original custom ROM, is only LionROM. But if you want other(s), you can try SkyNote from AT&T forum, but you have to read first before you flash, on how to make it work with our N7105 device.
If currently your device is rooted, those custom ROM will keep your rooting, so there's no need to worry about how to root back (just follow the flashing instructions).
But if you flash the official stock ROM from sammobile, you will loose your root, and you should be able to root back also.
It's all your choice. Good luck, mate.

Hi Guys, I am after the link for the 4.3 ROM if possible. I went on the Sammobile site and it says there is an update for Optus N7105, but I cant find one for Telstra, does it matter if I flash one that isnt for my carrier?

Hi all.
I'm not a fan of the rom on my phone so I might end up rooting and going down the custom rom route eventually. For now, I wanted to know if its possible for me to change the stock rom on my handset without too much hassle? I got the One X second hand and it looks like the phones from somewhere in Asia so I've got a bunch of stock apps from out that way so I wanted to know if I could flash the phone with a UK or EU rom without breaking the phone?
.. and if so.. how?
Basically of comes down to this
Unlock the bootloader (this will reset the phone to stock)
Flash a custom recovery and make a NANDROID BACKUP RIGHT AWAY !
Push the superuser.zip from the recovery to the rom to gain root acces or flash a brand new custom rom
But befor you start you need to read up in here, all sorts of guides and also tools. Get to learn adb/fastboot commands. That's very important !
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1832891
Yeah I already know how to do all that, I've done a few different models but I generally wanted to know if I could just flash the current stock from with a stock from from the UK?
Im not too bothered for rooting and custom roms at the minute as some apps I use dont work with a rooted phone.
In that case....yes. pretty much all roms are based on the wwe software
Hello,
I own a N5110 (Wifi) version of the Galaxy NOTE 8.0
The warranty is void since the first day... So I don't have a problem with rooting
I saw this video:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qpMY1xqXBhU
But I've read the comments, ppl have problems!!
And I'm not sure if it works with N5110 or for N5100 variant only!
Another Q:
Will the UNROOTING Process be easy, or it'll require flashing?
Won't I receive updates from SAMSUNG while being rooted (Without custom ROM) ??

For the first question, I am not sure never rooted with that.
For the second question you do need to flash the stock. Usually people just do that to hide that it has been rooted. If it is for that purpose that you are asking, and you have flashed roms, I recommend using Triangle Away, because that erases the counter of how many ROMs you have installed.
If you are at the stock you will receive updates, and if you do the update you will lose root. I have done that in the past with my Droid Bionic. I do not recommend it though because it lagged the hell out of my phone

Well, what's the point in installing the STOCK ROM if I wanted to UNROOT in my case?? (I mean I've no warranty anyway)
Can I just unroot without flashing?
And Yes I know about Triangle Away, I've read about it recently.
For the first question>> what do you recommend for rooting NOTE 8.0 N5110 ?
Thanks

As far as I know(being doing this for 3 years) There is no way to unroot without flashing the Stock Rom. The only way to flash the stock is using odin.
Honestly I do not know the best easy way to do it. All depends on the version you are at. I was on the updated version(not sure the build number). That framework apk didn't work with the version I had. The way I rooted was by first unlocking, then installed the TWRP through odin, then flashed a zip that rooted my phone. I do not recall any of the links. For the files, I lost them all because I just got a new computer and I was dumb enough to not do the back up on the other computer. Also I dont remember if there was steps in between, so I dont recommend following what I mentioned .
the way that I did is very similar to this one:

You can just install a nandroid stock rom for your device which is non rooted...
Hello Note 4 Friends
So I recently rooted my Mom's Galaxy S4 for fun, and installed a Lollipop ROM. It's Cool AF and I want stock Lollipop on my Note 4!
Before I go on with rooting my device and installing the custom rom, I have questions!
1. What will I lose if I go on with rooting then installing a stock Lollipop ROM? Will my S Pen literally not do a thing? Will the IR Blaster on the top of the device not work even with apps from the play store that control the IR blaster? Basically, what will I lose and not be able to replace or find very similar alternatives to? (IE: I can easily replace S Health)
2. How safe is it to root and install roms on the Note 4? I've rooted several devices in the past and installed custom ROMS, but it was well after their original release date. With the Note 4 being somewhat, recent, how safe is it, and are the ROMs *perfect* (Nothing Broken)?
3. Can I essentially "Save" my device completely before I install a custom ROM? If I really dislike the rom for some reason, is there someway I can have an exact save of my device with Stock Samsung Touchwiz, etc etc? All my apps and everything saved?
4. Are you rooted? Using a custom ROM? Lollipop? I'm curious as to how your phone is set up, and let me know why!
5. Do you recommend a certain thread on here/way for me to root my device, and also do you recommend a current Lollipop ROM that is very stable and very.. "stock Lollipop?"
Thanks everyone, XDA is always awesome d:
Have a great day and smile if you're reading this because it would make me happy ^_^
Rooting is very safe. As for saving your stock rom, instal TWRP. Make a backup. You can always restore backup and be back to normal. As for spen, not sure. Never flashed lollipop rom.
Phones nowdays are near impossible to totally brick. Soft brick yes. But you can flash stock firmware and recover quickly.

Is there a certain reason you've never flashed a Lollipop ROM?

its not officially lollipop is likely the culprit there, I flashed a CM12 (lollipop) rom for about 2 hours. Lost tw spen functionalities and couldn't use it as a DD because of that. Others have different reasons.
Hii to all of you guyz
Maybe my question to all of you will help all off us together
Well I want to flash custom roms
I have read everything about knox
And I am not a noob at rooting ... flashing
But as I can see there is some things unclear with the knox thing
Well I know it is a warranty thing and I dont need it anyway couse I already woid my warranty by changing display by myself
But the question would be for all of you guys is what you should not try/do or flash
Couse it can then brick your phone?
Reading all about knox someone said you should not downgrade or you get instantly a brick
Is that true?? Couse I want to install lollipop and who knows I am on kitkat...does that mean I can not install JB or maybe if I make a backup of stock kitkat and go to lollipop can I go back to my stock kitkat backup?
Or is it like it was with my old phones like warranty void if knox tripped but if I have cwm or twrp
Can I feel free to flash anything with no worries?? Of course for my s4 mini 9195 model
Or should we all know what things are risky and can brick your phone
Please help us all
Thanks
Downgrading from stock kit kat to stock jelly bean can be a problem with Knox because of the bootloader. because the latest stock KitKat Bootloader is running version 2 Knox. And as far as I've read cannot be downgraded without some difficulty.
Personally I haven't tried flashing any custom ROMs yet but maybe try to stay away from flashing jelly bean or downgrading just because of possible issues. but flashing with a custom kernel between lollipop and KitKat custom roms shouldn't be a problem just maybe downgrading to jelly bean could be.
If you did want to downgrade to Jellybean definitely do some more reading or wait for some more experienced users to reply don't take the risk with your device unless you're sure everything will be ok.
Best of luck.

I have flashed lollipop roms and went back to kitkat. No problem whatsoever.
Thanks for your replies. Just want I needed to know...
But some more info from more experianced user are also good to hear
if any of them want to help us all to know what not to do/flash or try
I know the title sounds weird, but here's my story:
I rooted an S4 Mini between the end of 2013 and summer of 2014, using whatever method was available, working and simplest at the time. I'd say I didn't install a custom recovery unless it was absolutely required by such method and I certainly never installed a custom ROM. Now I need to update the stock ROM to KitKat for app compatibility reasons and I need to unroot the phone. I would go for the good old trial and error method, but I don't have the phone in my hands: I need to guide a person who's smart but not tech-savvy enough to do this on her own.
My question then is: given all the information above, what's the best/simplest/only way to unroot the phone? Does it depend on how it was rooted? To be clear, I have found a procedure which involves flashing the stock ROM via Kies, but what I am ideally aiming for is an unroot that leaves the phone in its current state, without flashing/resetting anything. If it's possible, of course.
Thanks in advance for any help!
You can try unroot function in SuperSU. But i'm not sure that it is completely remove root from your phone. Anyway the best way to flash stock with full wipe. (sorry for bad english)
Thanks, that would be my first option, I just wanted some input/tips/warning from others. Your English is perfectly understandable, by the way.
