Need a quick answer....... - Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II

Ready to root my Note 2 currently on 4.1.2 MC2. Is twrp 2.3.1 and supersu 0.96 still good to use? Thanks in advance for any answer I can get.

There is a pc software named Root Master could easily root you 4.1.2 Note2. No matter what is the version of twrp and supersu...

pretty sure you could but if you intend to flash roms or other zip files most recommend an updated recovery.
also supersu will update in the play store after install recommend you do as many things have been fixed.

probably. I would flash the current TWRP which is at 2.6.3 (I think), just like any other flashable rom. It has some bug fixes. Plus, I'm not sure if the version you have sees the SD card or not.

Question about d2att to d2bell/d2can

I just purchased a Samsung Galaxy S III I747M through Bell, but am a bit lost with ROM flashing. I flashed to new ROM's quite frequently on my old Motorola Milestone, but I am a bit confused with the ROM's for the S III since there are so many variants.
My main question is, as a Bell user am I limited to only d2bell roms or can I change information in the build props or elsewhere to flash d2att roms? I am currently running rooted CWM-based Recovery v5.5.0.4 and my have been unsuccessful so far in flashing ROMs.

I rooted using this tutorial and afterwords cwm recognized my phone as d2att and have had zero problems flashing any ROMs.
I'm on Telus BTW so I know what its like crossing beyond the d2can label

I had the same problem but prefer twrp over cwm so all I did was change my build.prop in rom toolbox, then downloaded goo.im from the playstore. You can flash twrp in app and because I changed the build.prop to say dtatt instead of d2can,it installed the at&t recovery, now I have no problem flashing anything. Hope that helps.

i initially got twrp via goo w/o chaning d2can to d2att. I've made backups etc already.
If i decide to change to d2att and resintall twrp as d2att
1) can I use the older d2can backups?
2) does reinstalling it on top of d2can's twrp work?
thanks!
Twrp it is. So KoryGuy123, when you rooted your Telus S III you used the AT&T root on Odin?

Does changing from a d2can to d1att version of twrp work the same way? I can just flash on top of the existing wihtout any uninstalls and im assuming the d2att can still load d2can backups?
I know twrp are backward compatible, but are they cross version compatible?

I honestly have no idea. I know twrp update through goo manager is automatic so you would have to manually install it.
If you flash that recovery file it only changes your version of cwr.

Just don't flash other modems than those set for this variant.

If you are running clockworkmod recovery, go into rom manager, select update recovery, and chose d2att instead of d2can

In that video is a Odin flashable file... That's cwm, it'll overwrite twrp than you download ROM manager and update cwm. After that you can reinstall twrp and it'll be for d2att

That has everything you need to gain root. What you do from there is up to you. I've personally used it on both the ICS and JB stock images. Worked perfectly.
Search before you make a new thread next time though. Took me all of 15 seconds to find that when I first got on here.

cwm 10.1?? Think you may be confused with the CM 10.1 rom. There is no such version for CWM recovery but if you still face issues there even on the latest version then try moving to the latest TWRP and it should run through fine.

CWM and TWRP are separate recoveries man.. Flashing one will overwrite the other. Just choose which one you want.

TWRP is always recommended but it's all about personal preference. If you want my opinion I think TWRP is indeed better. It's got a much better UI and a lot easier to navigate, not to mention it's all touchscreen based.

Keep in mind that nandroids are recovery dependant so your current CWM backups will not be compatible with TWRP and same vice versa. If you're worried abput losing your backups what you could do is restore any CWM backup then flash TWRP and backup that ROM you had restored over to TWRP. You can do the same to all your CWM backups if you have any more but that'll take you quite a bit of time to do lol.

No need to uninstall. Like I said, just flash TWRP through Goomanager and it'll overwrite your current recovery.

[Q] S3 I747m 4.2.2 rooting

Hi,
I am new to Android flashing/rooting world.
I started with stock 4.1.2, rooted and flashed to miuiandroid .27 which brought me to 4.2.2
I am now trying to install Titanium Backup and it says it cant get root access.
Can I use the same SuperUser file to flash PDA using Odin that I used on 4.1.2 or do I need to root it with a different file (4.2.2 version) ?
I am using S3 I747m d2att.
Thanks in advance!
