How do you root the 4.4.2 N7100? - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Towerlroot didn't work. Are there any other methods that work?

Install Philz Recovery with ODIN 3.09.

After, flash SuperSU in recovery.

Cf-autoroot has always worked for me.http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1933542
Flash with Odin, update SuperSU from playstore.
Update binary when asked, disable knox.
You will have stock recovery. Flash TWRP or CWM as needed.

Yo guys which one is safer/has worked on more phones? that philz method or chainfire? im also running the FND3 GT-N7100 4.4.2

For me, Philz one is safer.
Altho both are safe.
However, Philz saves you a bit of the hassle, by installing both a recovery and rooting.

Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 Edition Bootloop

Hey,
i want to flash the stock rom without bloatware. i needed to install twrp. so i flashed twrp (openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.1-lt03wifiue.img.tar) with odin.
after flashing, the device is starting bootloop. i just can go download mode.
what can i do to fix it?
greetings
I solved it:
I tried to use 2.6.3.0 instead of 2.6.3.1.
Grz.
did you use the cf autoroot? did you flash the stock recovery? or did you just autorooot and flash twrp?
i flashed autorootp600mj4.tar and stockrecoverymj4.tar with odin to get root.
after deleting knox-apps, i was flashing twrp.

Yes, there are a number of ways to root on ver. 4.3. First, you could try CF-Auto Root. Doesn't always work with this version but it's worked for several people. Secondly, you could flash custom recovery via Odin and then flash the pre-rooted and de-knoxed MJ2 ROM as long as you retain your MJB bootloader and modem. You can ensure this by flashing the MJB bootloader and modem at the same time. Thirdly, you could flash TWRP custom recovery (this method doesn't always work with CWM) via Odin. Then flash SuperSU zip via custom recovery. Download and install SuperSU from the Play Store. Run it and install the binary when prompted. The fourth and my preferred method is Safe Root. This option won't trip your warranty bit in case this matters and has worked for me all the time. You can check the SafeRoot download link and installation instructions via the thread below ...

I just rooted yesterday again (after being on stock 4.3 touchwiz for the longest time, what a disaster). I used the CF auto-root method as well. I downloaded + flashed TWRP recovery using odin, and was all set to install AOSP roms. You can use CWM if you want but a few devs recommend TWRP so that's what I have stuck with.

I'm using tasks aokp right now, he always provides stable and reliable releases. Quantum, SlimKat and LiquidSmooth are all ones I've enjoyed back in 4.2 days so I'm sure those are good as well

What kernel update is the stock rom\ build date? The latest update doesn't work with cfautoroot which some people say. Have you tryed flashing twrp with Odin, then SuperSU.zip?

How to Root Koodo build number: KOT49H.I317MVLUDNH3?

I had used cf-auto-root to root my note 2 running build number KOT49H.I317MVLUDNH2 (koodo 4.4.2 stock). Worked great no issues, after root I used flashify to install twrp-2.8.7.0-t0lteatt.img.
My issue is recently I noticed an update from koodo (KOT49H.I317MVLUDNH3). Using kies I installed this update, which caused the phone to loose its root. I tried using cf-auto-root to root the phone again but no supersu.
Can anyone point me to a root method that will work with the new update? Notice the difference is the 3 at the end of the build, the os version remains 4.4.2.
Thanks in advance
You could just flash supersu via Odin or TWRP and you'll have it back again...
Also....2.8.7.0 is a bit buggy atm...so 2.8.6.0 may be a better choice...g

how do you flash supersu ?
I tried to root my galaxy note 2 using odin 3.10.7 and it was successful but after checking "about device" at the very bottom it says my phone is official which it is not, it was rooted successfully so I don't know why it is saying that. Also, supersu was not installed immediately after rebooting from odin, I had to manually download supersu from the play store. When I open up supersu, it says "There is no SU binary installed, and SuperSU cannot install it. This is a problem!"
What can I do ? thanks
Flash twrp to the note 2 via Odin. Then flash supersu.zip from twrp.

Flashing Stock ROM Question?

Hi guys.
I'm wondering, if I flash stock ROM to my note via Odin, do I need to re-root ?
And only recovery is back to stock one right?
Thanks!
Yes you will need to re-root. But it's really very easy. Just flash TWRP after stock ROM and then install SuperSU.zip.
Depending on the phone model and stock ROM version, you may be able to root by using cfautoroot and Odin.

there is another Solution to flash stock firmware ,and without PC !!
you can use FlashFire .apk
you can keep root access & inject SuperSu while flashing & manage recovery... and,.....
and the most important thing it is chainfire made
Can the stock rom be flashed with the TWRP, like an AOSP rom (img file) ?

No. But you can use eclipse (flash via TWRP) if you want the feeling of stock ROM.
Sorry guys guys for late reply.
I was using Kingroot before but I cant run flux or cf lumen using with its root access.
I tried using the CF autoroot, flash using odin, its all good no error and "Passed".
After rebooted, I try to run the SU and get this error:
"there is no su binary installed and supersu cannot install it. this is a problem"
I then installed latest TWRP using odin and installed latest SU using recovery but the error still persist.
What should I do? Thanks!

Its n7100 with 4.4.2
N7100XXUFNI4 - October 2014
I have always had success with cfautoroot.
Just double-check to make sure you used the correct version of cfautoroot, Odin 3.07, and the original Samsung USB cable.
Did you flash a stock ROM after kingroot failed? If not, this may be why cfautoroot didn't work.

Do I need to use the Odin 3.07? Cant use the latest one?
Nope. I flash stock ROM and trying to find easy way to root. I tried Kingroot.
Now, I uninstall Kingroot and try to root like good ol day. but it didnt work.. :crying:
You don't have to just Odin 3.07 but that's what I always use.
Flash back to stock, then use cfautoroot.

Tried with 3.07. Same issues.
Em, I will stick with Kingroot if I need to flash back I guess.
Is there any other way?
I'm using this one tho:
CF-Auto-Root-t03g-t03gxx-gtn7100.tar.md5
You tried 3.07 to flash stock or cfautoroot? I meant use 3.07 to flash stock, then use 3.07 to flash cfautoroot.

I reflash my note to stock and flash cfautoroot after. It worked perfectly fine now.
Kingroot was the real culprit.
Thanks!
That's great:good:
