I just got a Rogers note 2. I'm a little lost on how to install a custom rom/recovery on this device. I only have experience with the nexus 4 and htc one x,s and evo 3D. So i know the basic adb commands and such and have fastboot set up. Basically as an end result I want a custom rom, kernel and a working recovery. I was also wondering if a custom rom such as cm10 supports the s-pen? and can I flash a at&t rom on my Canadian phone?

S Pen: you can get some spen feature with AOSP roms but most of em will not be like a touchwiz rom.
Yes you can use att rom on your note but you might need to manually input your APN. This is no big deal.

You can do it both way. If you have a costum recovery installed you can flash the zip file provided in the thread. If not you can flash it with Odin.

You first need to root, I think there are two ways of doing it, I usually do it with odin and cf-autoroot. I'm not familiar with other ways.
Then you can install recovery trough odin OR using goo manager from playstore and press menu, install open recovey script
Once you have done all this, you will be ready to install a new rom.
Take a look at the cf-autoroot thread and the twrp thread in the development section.
Read a lot before attempting stuff, you need to prepare yourself and understabd how it works or your risk ending up with an expensive paperweight.

OK sounds good. I just thought some firmware you couldn't root. Am I good to install kernels like that too? Most phones I have owned need an unlocked boot loader to flash kernels. Are Samsung phone pre unlocked.

The answers you got in Task's threads still stand. It's either that you have to update your cwm (make sure it's d2att) or you'll have to use TWRP.
You can also redownload or
cut out a line in the updater script but I don't suggest that.

You need to update your recovery. Either use rom manager or, if you can't boot up, download an cwm flashable zip located at the bottom of post #2 in my signature link. Place it on a micro sd card and flash it in recovery. Go to advanced and reboot recovery. Flash rom and gapps again
Either your recovery is outdated, or you are trying to flash a device that isn't displaying itself as an i747 (d2att). This could be because your using a Canadian version of the s3, or your trying to flash the att Rom on a tmo,vzw, or Sprint version of the phone.
I'm rooted with a custom recovery running M919UVUAMDB.
So if i get it right. Only way to upgrade is to
Odin to stock.
Upgrade and break root.
Root with upgrade.
Re Flash upgraded stock.
Pretty much. Or you can use Skies to do recovery to the lastest firmware, then root again.

Been searching for last hour or two and this is only thread I've found this specific topic. Just got S4 today coming from a GNex so somethings are new to me.
Is there a detailed instructions somewhere on how to do this?
I'm also rooted on M919UVUAMDB and trying to figure out the best way to upgrade to MDL so that I can re-root again.
Install Kies. Under Tools setting, select recovery and put your phone to download mode. Let Kies do the rest.

Thanks for clarifying. Just to double check, would cwm recovery affect the kies firmware recovery process?
No. Kies would wipe it off during recovery process and install the latest firmware.

lol I've searched around too, but made my own conclusions. ahha
Not attempting to promote any particular roms but Wicked v2 is running mdl update with the mdb modem and radio and smoother than silk on s4, Revolt requires manualy updating with setuidremoval but has a great writeup how to do so as does Infamous S4, I personally can confirm Revolt and Wicked are working flawless as long as the minimal theming currently in both is fine with you.

...but im really confused by it all.
Im not new to rooting or flashing roms etc but im confused with all the different builds and my efs folder and what not.
I came from having a moto atrix and a htc desire before that.
My phone is currently on stock XXDME6 with baseband DMF1 and im in the UK.
Can someone point me in the right direction to be able to root, install TWRP recovery and flash miui v5 please?
Any help would be much appreciated.

For TWRP: HERE
MIUI thread: HERE
Once TWRP installed make sure to make a Nandroid Backup and check EFS partition.
Then you will be able to flash MIUI safely.
The easiest way to root is chainfires autoroot but that won't give you custom recovery you will have to flash separately. Dr ketan has published a gude that is stickied, you can't go wrong if you follow that and dr ketan is always helpful and friendly if your confused

Thanks for the replies.
If i root using CF auto root, how do i flash the twrp recovery?
Is it only roms built using a stock base that i have to worry about the build number then?
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda app-developers app
You can flash any build number I think the issue is with the latest modem which once flashed can't be downgraded . There are a few threads on it. If you want to use auto root you can use something like rom toolbox pro or I used mobile odin to flash a custom recovery. Personally I recommend phils touch recovery. I think he has an all in one root and custom recovery package that you just flash with odin

If I remember correctly you can downgrade to an earlier rom as long as you reflash your modem

Hey guys. I'm trying to flash the S4 Revolution rom on my S3 [http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2311671]
I downloaded the rom and put it on my sd card. Went into recovery mode and tried to flash the rom. It wiped all my data but didn't flash the rom. Instead it said "E: signature verification failed" and just rebooted and asked me to setup my phone from scratch with the current rom.The rom that I have now is stock rogers rom pre-rooted jellybean 4.1.1.
What am I doing wrong? I've read something about a "clockwork recovery image," what is that? Please help.

Do not flash... That is for the international S3. If you don't have an international S3 you'll brick your phone. If you DO have an international S3 you're in the wrong forum.

Yup hard brick. You can send it for JTAG service. Lots of trading needed before flashing.

I can't believe that I actually bricked my phone. I thought that could NEVER happen to me. All I did was go on Google and type is "s4 rom for S3" and I saw a link to the S4 Revolution rom. I just assumed it was for all S3s. There should be some warning... So upset.

A) never assume
B) unfortunately you won't get any sympathy for not reading up first.
That's why ROMs are "flash at your own risk"
Least you won't do it again.

If you arent sure what twrp or clockwork mod are you need to do some reading.
Custom roms arw flashed in recovery.
Stock are flashed with Odin. Please do a little reading before you brick your new replacement. There are lots of guides here to help you.

OK. I'm still not sure what that means. But what I did was flash the stock ROM for Rogers 4.1.1 that comes pre-rooted. My next objective is to get the S4 rom on it. I guess I'll just download Rom Manager and install that then save the S4 ROM to the micro sd and flash like that. I wanted to avoid putting it on the micro SD, though.

But isn't the rooted version of the stock Rogers ROM that I just flashed a custom ROM? I didn't flash it in recovery. I just put my S3 in download mode and did it through Odin.
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
