hello everyone, i have a rooted Samsung Galaxy Note II(GT-N7102 Daul sim) that i got from a friend of
mine. im not sure if its a clone or not but im having hard time putting in a custom recovery. the odin
method will not work nor will it go into odin mode and yes ive tried several different ways and it simply
will not work. ive been at this for about a week now.
so my question(s) at this point is:
1. Is there a flash-able recovery zip file that i can install via stock recovery?
2. Is it safe flash a custom recovery using the skipsoft tool kit via sideloader in the stock recovery(ADB)?
or
3. is it safe to install a custom recovery through the Rom Installer App?
morale of the story here folks is i just want put in a custom english rom but i cant do that without a custom recovery. and if anything i just want Gapps to work on my current rom(for now anayways)
also this probably off topic but i would like to know if theres a way to tell if i have a clone or not
your help and wisdom will be greatly appreciated! thanks in advance!!

You must flash first custom recovery from Odin Other you can flash via recovery.
Also the newest I think 2.7.1.0

Hey mate thanks for that.
I have downloaded it from here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1901196
must be the latest version. I was wondering is it normal to not have CWM when you root via Exynos Abuse v 1.40 apk? I have downloaded ROM manager and there wasnt my phone option. thats why I was seeking for help.

Exynos Abuse only root your phone, it will not install cwm or busybox. You'll need to install them separately...
You should try twrp. More user friendly and can be flashed without pc.

If you want to just flash zip file then no need to use CWM recovery (you have to use stock kernel too if you want to reset counter at every boot, if warranty is concern for you)
simply flash zip file with mobile odin without having CWM.
Hey dr I wanted to ask if I install say a rom which uses aroma and has many ways to configure installation and I flash it with ota/update.zip will I get aroma installer?
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda app-developers app
practically i never used any custom ROM, but custom ROM having it then you should get by flashing flashable zip of ROM with OTA/Update zip by mo odin.
I am saying that will it present me the aroma ui...

Untick auto reboot, pull the battery then insert it, press volume up+home+power and install root package to keep cwm available

Well if he's planning to install a custom AOSP-based ROM then flashing a root package isn't required... correct me if I'm wrong.

CWM is overwritten with stock recovery by the stock ROM. So if you don't have stock ROM it's kinda useless...
After flashing a custom ROM, all that's left unmodified on the device is just the bootloader... I don't think a bootloader can overwrite CWM to a stock recovery.

Thanks everyone because reply my question. FYI, I just flash philz touch recovery and it worked fine. The sad is, I lost this phone last month.
Hi,
I'm trying to flash my tablet with the stock rom, unfortunately the Nand Write fail again and again...
I bought 2 USB cables, I tried many computers... but nothing
I read somewhere that flashing the stock recovery would help. But I can't find it.
Anybody know where I can find the stock recovery flashable via Odin ?
Thank you by advance
Not sure, but every Firmware (Download at sammobile) contains all parts, even recovery.img. May be u can flash this via ur custom recovery. U need to know what partition to flash. But u can use any recovery-flashable ZIP from another recovery and change the recovery.img in the ZIP before flashing it in custom recovery. Simply extract recovery.img from Firmware.tar.md5 (rename to .tar and open with ZIP-Programm)...
As I said, there is recovery.img in all Original-Firmwares, so if it wont write to nand, I dont think it would help to flash recovery before flashing Firmware, but may be...

You must flash thru recovery.
Here the installation steps, but first you must flash a custom recovery like this or other, its up to you.
Installation instructions
- Copy f4ktion_1.4.0-xxx.zip to your SDCARD
- Reboot into CWM recovery
- Choose "Install zip from sdcard"
- Select f4ktion_1.4.0-xxx.zip kernel and confirm installation.

Thank you so much So all i have to do is flash the recovery in Odin.. But since my s4 mini is rooted, do i have to install the S4Mini_RootKit_V2.zip?? i mean if I do, will it conflict with the SuperSU i have previously installed on my device? Or just overwrite it and work like a charm? Sorry I'm asking like too many questions, but since i'm new here i need some guidance
Btw, how do i know if my bootloader is unlocked? Before I buy this s4 mini i owned an Xperia go and to install a kernel i had to unlock the BL.. I don't know if the same thing applies for sammy devices, just asking:angel:

No, we have bootloader unlocked, so you don't need to unlock anything.
No, try with this recovery if you afraid to not doing some conflicts:
[i919x][CWM Advanced Edition] PhilZ Touch
Download philz_touch_6.07.9-serranoltexx.tar.md5
boot into download mode
connect phone in download mode to PC via USB
press start to flash the tar.md5 package
normally, phone should auto-reboot into recovery.
If it reboots into main system and your recovery remains stock, repeat above steps and untick "autoreboot" in odin. Once flash is done, keep pressing the 3 buttons combo to for a reboot into recovery.You should see the new CWM
when in recovery, if you choose option "reboot system now" and you get "yes - disable flash recovery", select that option to avoid stock recovery overwriting cwm

Really, i don't know for sure, BUT in my previous phone (S Advance I9070) i have some errors when i flashed different baseband deodexed.
Make a nandroid backup after you have custom recovery, and you can try it. If something going wrong, restore your backup and all will just like before.

Their is a bit more to it than just flashing a zip I suggest you look at the guides and stickies on Xda before proceeding any further or you may end up with a non working device.

Hey bro,
If you're rooted already you can instal your phones custom recovery with Flashify from the Google Play Store.
Once you have the recovery you can get to flashing!
Hope this helps
Better if you are rooted is go to Playstore and download AutoREC for G3 (have 2 versions, one for 4.4.2 other for 5.0 choose the version according with the Android version you have installed), this app will install the TWRP on your phone and download the reboot app to get into TWRP...is easy!
