Hi Folk,
I have a N7105 and I'm quite familiar with rooting and flashing roms...
atm I'm on 4.1.2 stock rom, due to a repair case, I'm still on stock because I wanted to see what Samsung
has to offer in the new 4.3. But there is no Air command etc, and I read a lot about problems with Knox and the new boot loader..
Now I want to flash a custom rom (most likely 4.1) and there is my question:
Do I have to root the stock first or is it enough to just flash a custom recovery trough Odin and flash the custom rom ??
I can't see any sense in rooting the rom before flashing, it gets eliminated anyway... but I am no expert...
Cheers
there's no need to root your rom, just flash recovery with odin and then flash any rom with the recovery

Yes, flash the MJ5 bootloader to avoid any problems. And make sure that you have the latest CWM version. I personally recommend TWRP, latest version also. You should be set with that.

Hello everybody..Im kinda new to the root and custom rom scene here but I have been doing a fair amount of research...I recently flashed a rooted knox removed stock 4.3 india release to my gt-n7100 international note 2...I am looking for a kernel I can flash so I can overclock/undervolt for better battery life and performance....I downloaded neak, speedwizz and saber kernels from the xda forum but there wasnt any info I could find if they were compatible with stock based roms...Any info would be helpful...thanks!

hey just repaired my note 2's bootloader it took me forever and lots of work so im afraid to brick it again is there a safe official way to update to android 4.3 im currently running a rooted 4.1.2 stock N7100XXDMB5
Hey gang, I'm stuck. I wanted to start my phone up back from stock to sell it to my friend and he wanted it not rooted. So I went to Odin and did all the steps correctly but it keeps failing. Ok last night I was able to use it and I did all the set up and even installed the update on my phone and now its on 4.3 over the air.
I wanted to put the S3Rx rom to show my friend what you can do with the phone but I can't install it because Odin keeps failing. The only thing I've noticed different was that the phone has now this "knox" app. I don't know if samsung made it harder to root your phone or what with this 4.3 upgrade.
Can someone help me solve this? what I want to do is just root my phone again. Any clues?
What are you trying to do in Odin?

I'm trying to root my phone with Odin. I've used this method many times and never had these issues
And what method is it? Use cf-auto root

I don't know what you mean about cf-auto root. I even tried the other method up the installing the twrp.tar file and using Odin trying to flash the Knox removal zip, and nothing seems to work.
I don't understand I used to do this all the time and it never gave me problems. I used to do this to clean out my phone with so much junk that it was chewing up my storage space.
If all you want to do is remove Knox then flash a recovery with Odin, and flash a stock ROM like stockmod 4.3, its also pre-roooted.. You cannot do that with Odin
Edit: also if you ever want to restore to stock or use root66 you need to flash the 4.3 tar versions, nothing below or it will fail everytime.. Things changed with the 4.3 official update

You can't flash ROMs in Odin, only firmware.. If you want to flash a ROM you need to flash it with a custom recovery

oh ok, so do I get the stock firmware and then put that through odin? then after reboot run a recovery to flash a rom. The hard part is trying to find a up to date firmware. I don't know where
The firmware is already installed on your phone, you don't need to flash it again.. now just flash a recovery with Odin and then flash your rom

ok, I give it a shot, thanks again.
I'm using rom manager and I keep getting "an error occurred while flashing your recovery" but then I was looking into TWRP and it says that I must root my phone. I thought I was rooted after using a recovery in Odin
If you already flashed a recovery in Odin then just flash your ROM in recovery.. If you haven't flashed a custom recovery, flash it in Odin, then reboot to recovery and flash your rom

Because you need root to flash a recovery with those apps

Ok, I am trying hard to get this and all I'm getting is frustrated with x amount of attempts. This is where I am: I'm on 4.3 Device status: Custom
Build: JSS15J.T999UVUEMJC
with this I can't get to flash a rom. I was trying to flash the S3Rx 3.0 aroma but whenever but it just won't and whenever I try to go to recovery through Rom Manager theres an era.
I guess I'm stuck with this so called stock 4.3 without any special features. I'm going to give it another try with another rom and see.

I've never used TWRP. I don't even know how to get it. If I do go to Rom Manager it says "you must root your phone for Rom Manager to function. Superuser was not found at "/system/bin/su" or "/system/xbin/su".
thats what I get when I go into Rom Manager.
when I pick ClockworkMod Recovery it asks for either 2.x or 3.x+ I pick either one and it says that it has been set up to use your existing recovery installation. then I tap OK and when I get out of app and go back into it, it says there is an update available for CWM I click at it and then it does the installation at 100% then I get "an error occurred while trying to flash your recovery"
So basically I have no recovery that can flash any roms. I really appreciate your help and patience. I'm just going insane here I honestly believe its that upgrade I got OTA to 4.3 because all along before I had 4.1.2 and gave me no problems. I think what it was is that when I used Odin to unroot my phone I did all the installation to get back to stock, then I was wondering about updates so I went to the menu and tapped on the Software upgrade and then it was upgrading (500 and something megabytes) then it reboot and it was 4.3
You need to download the recovery from http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/d2tmo and flash it with Odin.. Keep in mind that this will trip the warranty counter just to let you know, and you cannot reset it.. After that you can flash the ROM

My phone is stock rooted but not on Mr Robinson's. Performance wise it should be same or better than stock ROM since it's the stock ROM.

Are you saying the MrRobinson's ROM isn't rooted ? Did you try the version 2 he posted ? I know that the first one had some issues.
If you are on 4.1.2 and only use PC odin for flashing then you can flash this stock rooted, knox-free ROM I uploaded here.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2636552
This ROM will not update your bootloader and you can switch back to 4.1.2 using PC odin.

But, Can I flash anhoter Rom?
If I downgrade via Odin, with stock firmware, android 4.1.2. Can I?
Because I would like to flash some cm Rom.
Your phone is already on 4.3 bootloader and there is no way to downgrade that.
But you can still flash any 4.1.2 ROM'S as long as you do not flash the bootloader. Almost all custom ROM's come without bootloader so you should be able to flash them via CWM,TWRP or mobile din.
