Ok so this is what i did to root my Telus Device SGH-I317M on Build JSS15J.I317MVLUCMK5
I started with a factory reset from backup and reset dont think this is necessary but nice to do with a clean isntall
once that was done i turned off the device and booted into download mode volume down + home + power
opened ODIN 3.09 and added the CF-Auto-Root-t0ltecan-t0ltevl-sghi317m.tar.md5 to the AP section. then clicked start. once done the device restarts back to normal and the root is applied, but during that KNOX detects it and disables it from working.
plug device into computer and ran Kies 3 and ran a firmware upgrade and initialization. took about 20 minutes.
once phone started you will notice superSU is no longer on your system.
TEST FOR THIS PART... PROBABLY not necessary but i did this and this is what happened.
run KNOX and allow it to Install. once done it will ask you to add passwords and at the end it will say it is not compatible with this device or whatever. KNOX has now terminated its warrenty or what not and will not install.
i did not have an update for superSU on Google Play but i DID have the update on Aptoide. so i updated it and ran the program.
program told me it was no longer on the device saying the libraries or whatever were not there.
so i ran Odin and ran AP again and ran it once it was done phone started and no messages and superSU worked.
because now that you factory loaded from kies for some reason it knows you attempted it the first time that now knox will not work
not quite sure how that works or if its even relevant. but when you see in the download mode it says warrenty void 1 or whatever and the knox crap its all disabled now i am guessing because i got no problems or messages once i finished it all
so step by step.
STEP 1. put in download mode and run odin 3.09 load AP and make sure Auto reboot and F. reset time are the only ones with check marks and then click START.
STEP 2 Once device reboots you will get errors and knox blocking it. this is normal. (for me it was anyway) open Kies 3 and do firmware upgrade and initialization. depending on internet connection this could take some time. you may be able to Odin the firmware but i chose kies 3
STEP 3 Once system restore from Kies is done open KNOX and install it. should fail and say not available for this device. (happened on my device)
STEP 4 either run aptoide and download the update for superSU tho you dont see it, its still there. open that will tell you to re do the root process again.
STEP 5 run odin 3.09 load AP and make sure Auto reboot and F. Reset Time are the only ones with check marks and then click start.
STEP 6 once device has started download root checker from the google play store and test. should say success.
i did at first after i root checked it with success i rebooted the device and started it up then opened superSU asked me to download binaries i pressed back by accident and then it said knox detected would you like to try and disable knox. select yes. and then success
you are rooted and no more notifications.
THESE ARE THE STEPS THAT I DID TO ROOT MY DEVICE FOR THE SPECIFIC MODEL AND BUILD so results may differ from others. so far its worked on my SGH-I317M TELUS phone running virgin mobile sim
Hope everyone else has as much success as i did.

If you just want a custom rom all you really need to do is update the bootloader or already be on 4.3 official then just boot into download mode use Odin 1.85 to flash twrp recovery wipe your data and flash the rom you want. Or just update to official use chain fire auto root and just update supersu it will disable Knox.

Is there an updated bootloader/modem? I am on skynote 4.3 r9z, but my baseband is still LJ2, I need the mk5 modem for i317m.

If you can't find a Odin modem I would update to official then re root and flash away.

Thanks but I am not that keen on getting the official rom. For one I hate using kies, it was a mess when i tried to update with my old s3, so I have not used it at all. Plus I have tons of stuff on my current phone that i would need to restore after things are done.
Also, i'd rather not having to deal with knox if i can, even though the phone is out of first yr warranty period. I have always used custom roms on my note 2 and s3 so i will leave at that for now.

I tried that method didn't work for me. I couldn't update or use superSU maybe the root I used didn't fully install but they way I wrote down to doing it on stock room works every time.
I haven't tinkered with any custom roms yet either, not sure what's the benefit of them

The main reason to use a custom rom is to remove all carrier related stuff on your phone. It also let's you add different mods and features you want. For example you can use the note 3 roms. Pretty much turn your phone into a note 3.

It looks like the DN3 rom will get an update tomorrow. Right now the only bug is the contacts app not working right. I'm sure that will be fixed. I've been using it and the note 3 features are nice.

Look at the android development section for it. It should be one of the first roms listed. Just be aware if the update released tomorrow is re based off of the n7105 you will have to wipe again. It's nice.

Right now you just need to flash the rom then devil kernel and the 317m modem. Don't worry you won't brick. I would wait for tomorrow to flash because it will be updated and it might have all the options for the 317m. I have a 317 myself

alright ill wait till tomorrow. and hopefully i find a detailed description on how to do all this. ive only ever ran the s1 because it was bricked had to run all the modem the pda and pit or whatever a long time ago so my minds gone all fresh on the rooting and flashing roms. ive only ever run stock roms. but for 4.4 i want to get it on my device because i love the group play video and the screen recording and the other few things that are awesome on the note 3
unless there is a way to get all that on the 4.3 note 2 firmware that would be awesome as well
i317m - no mobile data with CF-auto root zip file in odin
I guess I have done enough reading to be dangerous. I wish there was a comprehensive glossary for this stuff.
Anyhow - through ODIN I have flashed CF-Auto-Root-t0ltecan-t0ltevl-sghi317m - and today I have no mobile data.
Where could I find an image to go back to the original phone and start again? It is an i317m Note2 from Bell
Thanks

Basically - I have no mobile data (it seems) How can I diagnose my problem. Is there something to show signal strength. Or is there a log file showing whether my modem is handshaking or what can a guy do?

Hi I recently just bought a Galaxy Note 2 and noticed it was on 4.1.1 JellyBean and know that there's suppose to be a 4.1.2 update out for the major Samsung phones. I went to Settings- About Device- Software Update- Check For Updates and it says "Current software is up to date". Anyone know what the problem could be?
Since your trying to update the stock firmware. You can just go to Sam mobile and grab it from there.
Go HERE:
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/
Where is you'll just be putting an updated stock firmware!! Instructions are all there!
But you can also root the device then just flash you a custom AT&T 4.1.2 stock Rom and be good to go. And you'll be better than stock any day!

That doesn't have the 4.1.2 update. I've tried updating using Samsung Kies but it it shows like it's about to start updating and then the application forces close. I have no idea why the Kies application would be forcing close.
Try the date and time trick ..
Set the device date ahead 1 day and try the update again ..
The ATT servers are touchy...and sometimes won't function properly ..
Another question ...
Is the device completely stock ??
Basically you must have the stock 3e recovery or the update will fail...g

Phone was rooted and I unrooted it. Also I haven't setup the SIM card since the phone isn't unlocked not sure if that's the problem. When I tried again to update it said Software Update Interrupted try again in 48 hours blah blah blah.
Carrier detection may be part of the problem ...
And depending on the return to stock method you used ...
The device may have files or a dirty area that the update app doesn't like ...
If you are wanting to run the device fully stock ...then try the unroot again ...
I'm thinking it's dirty somewhere ...g

I doubt it's still rooted because under device status it says Normal which if I'm not mistaken means there's nothing wrong or tampered with. Maybe it's just that I have to unlock it before I can update it.

I just had a Galaxy S3 which was T-Mobile and it let me get the 4.1.2. update no problem. Also I know the Galaxy S3 AT&T 4.1.2. update came out late august if I'm not mistaken and was regarded as a late update. So when did the Note 2 4.1.2. update come out?

After countless hours of searching and trying multiple different ways to update I realized I chose the wrong update file from stockroms. The phone was originally rooted and I unrooted it and when it came to choosing a rom to download from stockroms.net I chose the first one which I realized was the 4.1.1 stock rom. So I re-rooted it and then unrooted it intsalling the 4.1.2 rom and it worked and finally I have 4.1.2!!!
Updated on sammobile go and get it MODERATOR EDIT - LINKS REMOVED
just successfully rooted by device via cf root.
How : ?
updated from MC2 to MK4 via kies, after the update i let it finish updating it took about 10 to 15 mins, then follow the cf root method and regained root, the knox message popped up but superSu blocked it.so now I'm good to go
hope this help

I'm on boost mobile too....Don't do what you're planning! All you need to do is download lorjay589's 4.3 rom or the Synergy 4.3 rom (full rom..deodex version) also grab the wifi fix file and mk4 modem (optional)
Then back up apps with titanium backup and then create a nandroid backup. ...then do full system wipe except sdcard I ran wipes 3 times with twrp then flashed the rom then reboot....it will start to boot and then it'll pause on Samsung screen with blue light flashing. ...just wait...5 min or so then it'll boot...setup rom settings then reboot into download mode. Then run odin and flash wifi fix through odin (pda tab) then reboot...If it hangs or even if it boots reboot one more time then you'll be up and running 4.3 wifi and all. Done....again don't bother with the file you downloaded from sammobile!
mk4 update.
Hi. I recive your msm after i did the update. Let me tell you men, it looks amaising, beautiful. Everything
Works perfect and i root it too.. trust me. Works perfect..every time i flash a rom with custom recovery my note 2 lloose the flashand goes back to sprint..i notice that the wifi gets a little weak some times, so i dont know if i should flash the wifi path. How you flash that? With odin? How can i get it? Thanks in advance...

Why does 4.3 look better on other phones like the S4 and Note 3? I see little things that we don't have on our Notes. Like updated weather widget, the homescreen circles where replaced for a home or flat lines depending on what screen you're in and just other minor stuff I can't think of at the moment. Was our Touchwiz updated with this update or just our OS?

Not really what I was asking lol.. I know their whole scheming procedure to get you to update just curious to know if touchwiz was not updated or not. They don't need to give us note 3 features just to revamp how ours looks. Also I don't flash nor want to void my warranty.

well touchwiz was updated but not as much as the s4. we got new settings tab stock 4.3 with a few added options.

"UN"Flash from boost???
So I have a galaxy Note II (or 2) that I have had on Boost for about a month, and I am not liking how it acts, never 4G, and no hotspot. I found Ting, and would like to try it to see if it is much better. How do I unflash my phone? Already have the telephone number switched to Ting. I also have a S2 that my wife is using and I need to do that phone also... any help would be GREAT!!

...If you flash to a different carrier your 4g LTE will NEVER work. If you want 4g you're going to need to buy a phone from the carrier you want LTE on. The hot spot will work if you flash a deodexed ROM and apply the native hot spot hack. Flashing to a different carrier will do nothing to help any of the issues you mentioned. I have Boost on my Note 2 and LOVE it. Can't beat unlimited talk/text/3g on a phone they don't even offer for $35 a month. Eat it Sprint.

Just checked for updates as described in other threads and it found the latest 4.3 update. I have read both positive and negative responses to the update. Some found things they used in 4.1.2 that are being taken away. Some like the new features in 4.3. It will vary from person to person whether the ROM is better for them or not. Fact is, all devices (current and future) are moving forward.
Should I just install the update? Should I make a copy of my current setup with one of the recoveries, then odin back, and run triangle away?
Strange. I went ahead and updated. Even after doing two complete resets, I still have SU app from 4.1.2. I guess it carried the program during the upgrade process?

it basically dirty flashed the new update over your 4.1.2. I honestly didn't care much about the KNOX boot loader since my warranty is already over. but, I find not having to flash devil kernel so much easier w/ less lag.

Hopefully someone will develop something that resets the KNOX counter. Triangle worked for 4.1.2, but does not work in 4.3 for me.
BTW, what 4.3 ROMs do you like, since we have the new bootloader? I just installed TWRP and trying to decide on a ROM.

exactly why I didn't care much for the T-Mobile ROMs. it works spectacular. w/ the new boot loader you won't have to flash devil kernel to get WiFi working. and there's no data drops. + we get the N3 features.

I am installing DN3 and am in their installer. It asks me whether I want the N7105 version... or the i317 or i317M. I read to install the ATT version, but what's the difference in the M and non-M version?
So I have a question I hqvent been on in a while and last I checked the newest update came with a locked bootloader. I know it did for the s3. I liked the newest software on the s3 but I jus5 cant stand all that bloat and not having full control of my phone. That s3 was killing me. I just got my note2 back from samsung with a nice new screen and of coure they forgot to send the spen with it. Not that I use the stupid thing anyway but still come on. Anyway is the bootloader locked on this one also and how hard is that to get around?

theyre for different companies i believe. as how ours (T889) also has a T889v ( i think thats the right letter) version as its for a different conpany. I installed using the ATT one. there's really no difference because you're just going to flash a tmobile modem over it.

yes the boot loader is locked. I don't believe there's a workaround it yet. but I'm even sure. you can scroll around through the threads and see if there is. what I did was just update it anyways and tripped my KNOX boot loader to ox1. I didn't have warranty anyways so I'm not tripping over it. and then I just rooted it, flashed cwm and started to flash ROMs.

Thank you. So is the root process the same? Usually i flash twrp with odin then install su permissions then I flash away. Or do I have to use another method? Really all I want is the modem software so I could just wait till someone pulls it out they usually do. I always liked c heckin out the latest stock rom but always changed back to aokp.

I wrote instructions on how I rooted. there could be other methods to. this is easiest for me! http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2562994
if you're going to end up on aokp, you should just stay on the 4.1.2 boot loader. the update to me is really only for TW roms because the stock ROMs are working just fine w/o the new boot loader.

I've been searching and reading for last couple days and haven't been able to find a definite answer. I'm using note 2 i317 at&t with stock 4.3 out of the box. I've been able to root it and get past Knox successfully. My question is can I install a custom recovery using stock 4.3? I'm wanting to use xposed framework and I want to be able to make a backup and have recovery optons. I've heard it may not be possible on 4.3 due to possible locked bootloader and the Knox thing. Any help is appreciated.
Just flash your custom recovery using Odin...
The Knox bootloader is generation #1...and does not prevent the flashing of custom recoveries or kernel images. .
Edit:...custom recoveries will trip the Knox counter...and void the device warranty. ..
Once you have a custom recovery. ..you can create your full nandroid backup...
Then you'll be able to do anything you want with roms etc....g

Not exactly. ..
Once you root...or flash a custom recovery. ..you will trip the Knox counter...(bootloader flag)
Effectively. ..that will void warranty...
However. ..This flag will not effect using your nandroid backup to restore the device if you should need it... (store that backup on your PC for safety)...
But if you don't care about warranty. ..then a revert to stock 4.3 is quite easy...minus the tripped bootloader flag....g

when i turn on root explorer in ES file manager - i get test failed. feature can not run on my device. any help?
Dont you need to change to read/write?
I have one more question on the 4.3 boot loader thing. Am I able to flash Roms that are based on an earlier android version like 4.2.2 since I am on official 4.3 boot loader? I was looking at flashing a ported miui v5 ROM but I'm pretty sure its 4.2 based.

Sry if I seem like I'm thread jacking but just wanted to clarify something. So with the AT&T note 2 on the stock ota 4.3 we can still install a custom recovery and flash custom roms and kernels or does it have to be 4.3 touchwiz based roms? If so can someone tell me the steps to do so?
The only reason I'm asking is I have both an att not 2 and a Verizon both on 4.3 and with the Verizon note 2 I had to use safestrap to flash a custom rom but can't flash kernels (so I'm not really new to flashing and all but new to the att scene and wanted to make sure bc I was told that with a locked bootloader I couldn't flash roms and a custom recovery and don't want to break my phone)
Thanks (also I only had an att note 2 is so I can get 4g lte on straight talk but I like having the note 3 features)
Again thanks for the help as of right now my att note 2 is a paper weight and if I can flash any custom rom on stock 4.3 it'd be great bc at least I wouldn't have wasted my money haha

I have the att note 2 and it came with stock 4.3 and I'm now running ezkat 4.4.2 with agni kernel. So yes you can run roms and kernels. Only thing I'm not 100% sure on is if you can downgrade to 4.2 or 4.1. Here is the link to the room I'm running. It's great and has a lot of note 3 features and some s5 features.

I just used Odin and flashed phils cwm file. You can get it in either a flashable zip or and Odin flashable file. The bootloader not really locked from what I understand it just won't let you replace it with an earlier version. Basically no problems flashing roms and kernels and such. You just have to kill the Knox security deal with super su

I think it does. Basically load up Odin have your phone in download mode and put the recovery file into pda slot make sure Odin recognizes your phone and hit start.

no you can no longer downgrade and will have the knox bootloader which really isnt a big deal i dont know why everyone whines and cries about i if you trip your knox flag it does absolutely nothing except not allow you to lie to your carrierinsurance company with i dont know what happened i tried to turn my phone on and it wouldnt come onwhen you do something stupid like flash stuff for different devices

i actually used shiamatsu's method of going from the MDL modem to the NB4 modem.
so i cannot revert back to the MDL modem even if i were to flash the MDL modem via odin?
i cannot revert back to older modems via odin if i were to say flash an international modem like the XXUFNB8 or XXUFNB9 modem for the I9505?
can i flash those international modems on my t-mo s 4 to fix wifi issues i'm having?

Modems you can. But thats not whats posted. If you flash full nb4 firmware with its bootloader. You can not downgrade.
i9505 modems you can't flash. They'll be rejected and fail. Ive actually forced them to flash and lost all service.

I flashed the C-Rom found in one of the threads on this forum for the t-mo s 4.
However, my wifi is now wonky and it doesn't log into or accept my wifi login details or allow me to connect to wifi
so i was thinking since it is an international rom, i might try to flash an international modem to try and fix the wi fi issue.

Na not at all. Doesn't matter what you're running, will erase all of whatever rom youre running and install the firmware. Recovery, roms, kernels, etc dont matter at all. You may have to wipe data and cache in recovery after you flash it for it to boot tho which is common no matter what you're running.

About the know counter, my first s4 with TMobile got broke and replaced, and they didn't even bother checking the counter, when I first went with T Mobile even asked, they said if I rooted the phone it voided the software warranty and the phones software was my responsibility..........uh..........OK...
