[Q] Samsung Note 2 wont go into recovery mode. - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I have a Samsung Galaxy Note 2 on the Rogers network in Canada. I rooted my phone and then realized that supersu was not working. I dont loaded rom manager to install the latest version of CWM but realized that my version of software wasnt on the list. I selected a version that was close to mine but the install could not be completed. Anyways when I finally realized what I was doing and I needed to get my phone into recovery mode to install the lastest version on Supersu which I downloaded I could not do so. For some reason I kept getting a flashing Samsung Galaxy Note 2. See link. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4_hFpRBWqZ8
How do I fix this issue and get my phone into recovery mode? I need to install the lastest version of Supersu via CWM to have my root working correctly.
I was also wondering if I can just try to root my phone again via odin?
I am a newbie, just looking for answers.

You must know if you own a N7100 or t0lte and if the bootloader is locked or not. Here in Europe Note 2 is generally sold with unlocked bootloaders, but not so in the USA/Canada.
After that we should mind following: if the OS is corrupted now by uncompleted flashing process, you may better flash either a full stock firmware with Odin- or flash only a custom recovery with Odin. However, now you must really know is it a N7100 or t0lte

Hello Sir,
I have GT-N7100 ( Samsung Galaxy Note 2 ) 4.4.2 KitKat ! I recently tried to root my device with Odin odin3 v1.85 ( cwm6-root-note2 ) and got the pass.
Then I was not able to use SU ( Which was already pre-installed by me before rooting from play store ) Also it give the message "There is no SU binary installed and SuperSU cannot install it".
Also I cannot go to CWM Recovery mode by Pressing Vol Up + Home Button + Power Button as screen go mad and switch it off, Then I need to start it again to use my phone normally.
I have installed an app from Play Store named Root Checker which verify if phone is rooted or not and it say "Root Access is not properly configured or was not granted".
Thanks to god my phone is still working but I still wish to Root My phone again with correct process !
Q. Can I still Re-Root My phone ? If Yes, Then please guide me through latest correct process with files.
Q. I wish to root and install CWM Recovery again ( Which I tried before which has not properly configured )
Thanks
Have a nice day

See..first check if ur device has a locked bootloader. .....if it is locked u have to get that bootloader (u have to flash the rom officially for rogers).....
If u have an unlocked device...then do this
Search for the latest cf auto root for ur device
Get odin and stock rom (urs or rogers one (if locked))
Flash the rom
Flash cf auto root
And u hve a rooted stock device....that will go in recovery too

Here it is...My phone is unlocked and it is note 2 model SGH-1317M. I am trying to google the stuff that you told me to look for but there is so much info that I am scared that I am going to make a mistake. Would it be possible for you to provide links beside each step. I will be eternally grateful. I do understand if you can and I appreciate all your help so far.

First tell me could you use other sims on ur device(other than Rogers)

Thanks a lot for all your help. It took me a few days to do all the research but it was well worth it. I followed your instructions and I am now able to put my phone in to recovery mode. I am not sure if my phone is rooted as when I try to open SuperSu it say it has stopped working. Any ideas on what I should do?

I downloaded twrp for the play store and I cant use it as it says it requires root access. I thought my phone was rooted as I used CF- Auto root and all worked out well. I kept getting an error saying unfortunately SuperSu has stopped. I dont know what to do now. I was going to use twrp to flash SuperSu update.
How should I proceed?

TWRP from the Play Store??
Android-Andi has compiled TWRP and PhilZ for all Tab 2 models. You should flash any recent recovery as a tar file in download mode with Odin

[Q] Can't get Recovery/Root. Need help please.

I NOW HAVE ROOT AND RECOVERY!
Thanks to mariostar32 and krankdroid!
Hi all,
I've just bought a Note II and am trying to get root. I've followed this tutorial carefully
HTML:
http://galaxynote2root.com/galaxy-note-2-root/how-to-root-galaxy-note-2-on-linuxubuntu/
and everything completes without error, but whenever I try and boot into recovery it just get a garbled Samsung boot logo and it never gets to recovery.
Now I can't go back to stock updates since my device has been modified, so I'm commited to getting root and custom recovery now.
Can anyone help me with what is going wrong?
Thanks
download the last version 4.1.2 and flash it via odin. If you need any help tell me.

I can no longer download updates from Samsung since I have tried to root it already.
I can't use Odin since I don't have Windows.
I have tried the method in the link above using Heimdall (Odin equiv. for Linux) and everything went fine (no errors, terminal output was as expected) but cannot get into any recovery (stock or custom)
Before you proceed with tutorial, make sure:
You have installed your Galaxy Note 2 N7100 USB drivers on your PC.
You need to enable USB debugging mode which is deactivated by default.
You smartphone should have 70-80% charge remaining.
Your Galaxy Note 2 N7100 should be factory unlocked.
Backup your important data like Call logs, SMS and other data in stored in phone memory so in case if anything goes wrong, your data is not hurt.
The update is only meant for Galaxy Note 2 N7100, so don’t try it on other variants.
Step 1) Download Android 4.1.2 XXDLK7 for Galaxy Note 2 N7100. " I can't post outside links so type in google galaxy note 2 xxdlk7 "
Step 2) Download ODIN v3.07. It's an old version but you can download a newer version of odin from google but it works np
Step 3) Turn OFF your mobile and go to Download Mode by pressing and holding the Volume Down + Home Buttons together for few seconds followed by Power button until you see Android logo with triangle on screen.
Step 4) Now open ODIN on your PC and connect your Galaxy Note 2 N7100 to your computer.
Step 5) Once your phone is successfully connected to your PC, the ID:COM box on ODIN will turn yellow and will show the COM port number.
Step 6) Select the downloaded file to install by following below steps:
Click on PDA and select file with HOME or CODE in its name.
Now click on Phone and select file with MODEM in its name.
Next click on CSC and select file with CSC in its name.
At last click on PIT and select file with .pit.
Step 7) Again to to ODIN window and check Auto Reboot and F. Reset Time options.
Step 8) Click on Start button in ODIN window to start the installation process. The process will take few minutes to complete.
Step 9) When the installation is completed, your phone will restart. I hope that i helped you GoodLuck

I can't use Odin, there is no Linux version.
I've found the TWRP for the Note II:
HTML:
http://teamw.in/project/twrp2/115
Does anyone know if I flash the latest .img file from that using Heimdall will that give me a recovery to then install Super-SU from?
I've only just bought this phone and can't afford to buy another if I brick it, so I'm hesitant to just try without some expert knowledge.
you must be rooted first before putting twrp.

Ok, so how can I root it?
The only Linux tutorial I've found doesn't work since I can't get a working recovery in order to install Super-SU and get root.
Is there another way to get root? Or another method that might give me a recovery so I can get root?
Ok after you did the tutorial you got rooted or not ? download root check from play store and check

No I do not have root. I wish to get root access and install a recovery, then Super-SU.
Try this, It's a root way without odin.

You can get the mobile Odin that let's you flash firmware from the device itself.

Great! I'll get that to install TWRP or CWM then, since Heimdall seems to be corrupting the recovery when flashing it.
I've got root now (thanks to mario above!) so mobile odin is a good option
Thanks!
It's nice to see that you get rooted, nw download mobile odin and flash twrp.img

Your best bet woukd probably be to download your update from sammobile.com and install it as per their instruction. Look into the repartition ing option.

I said "look in to it", what I mean is that sam mobile say that if your upgrading stock make sure you DO tick the box but all the guides on here say avoid and DONT tick the box. Ive just flashed a rom with odin and did NOT tick the box but it was a dmg rom. I would not have thought the 4.3 roms need to alter any partition sizes so try it without repartitioning and if it has issues maybe try it with a repartition.

Are you running stock? A custom rom? Jave you flashed a stock image? If you have flashed a stock image and its not tje correct one then this could be why it wont update. Try flashing a stock 412 image from the carrier that provided the phone or just go straiight for the 4.3 image, getting stock 4.3 installed on your phone will activate the efuse with knox and you wont be able to downgrade after

My counter was set to 2 so I triangled away and turned off then flashed stock rom (pre rooted) and the counter was set to 1 but other bits had changed to official. I triangled away again with the new stock rom and recovery and triangle away worked this time, rebooting the phone which it didnt do before (I think) and when it rebooted it loaded a new screen id not seen before (in other words this time it was working properly - cant work correctly on custom roms I guess) after this time it reset everything properly. The option it gave me after it had reset the counters properly it gave me 2 options, 1 reboot, or 2 reboot into download mode which I chose no2. In download mode there were no counters or text or anything but after another reboot and then back into download mode the markers and counter were there all reset hope thats not too unclear :/
Oh dunno if rooting would cause that issue or not but maybe try unrooting before ota. The ota on my stock rom just searches and doesnt do anything. Upgrading to official 4.3 though I cannit recommend, I was going to upgrade to official 4.3 but I am not now, you cannot downgrade and my friend has a s4 and has upgraded his to official 4.3 mk9 (hes never rooted or anything that may tamoer with warranty) and hes quite annoyed with it, prooer laggy etc he wishes he hadnt bothered. I am hoping for arhd 20 to materialize but im noth bothering with the undowngradeable official now

Tbh mate, ive ran 4.3 for a bit and apart from a few small cosmetic changes theres nothing there thats going to improve your phone so unless your buying a Galaxy Gear theres no real point to it imo. Kitkat wont be long, ill give that a go when it turns up
Oh yeah and triangle away is riskey - you could brick your phone so unless your actually sending it back, I wouldn't bother about the counter numbers

You may need a knox free kernal, not sure. You can use Dr Ketans multitool v6 to root and remove knox if you have a custom recovery, or you can install the Xposed Installer (apk file) http://repo.xposed.info/module/de.robv.android.xposed.installer and then install 'wanam xposed' from the module list. Click to remove knox in the security section of wanam module but i fear that option is just a cosmetic one. If you decide to use a custom recovery, use philz recovery (flash the tar file from odin using the pda tab) but dont flash v6 (has issues), use v5.15

Flash this file (unrar before) via odin, (i used 3.09).
Open Kingo Root, it should say already rooted. Click Root Again. it will install Super SU 2.02. Update binarywith Normal method.
Don't update Super SU via Google Play it will failed,
I rooted my phone yesterday.
Good Luck

problems are:
disables the rotation sensor (cant want videos sideways)
on boot root triangle is shown(haven't tried root triangle go away yet (but disappears when you flash stock rom)
cant update SuperSu binary (manually, automatically, Superuser version fails too)
We still need CWM if anyone could help me I've setup Ubuntu (dual boot) and already made a custom rom with root using android kitchen but cannot flash it as need Recovery (odin cant execute the on flash scripts that the android kitchen compiles with the roms)

hi guys,
has anyone successfully rooted 5.1.1 with this method?
I'm using e500h, followed all the steps and stucked at Samsung logo after installing supersu.zip.
what I did...
1. Upgraded to 5.1.1 via odin using India firmware.
2. Flashed twrp, no problem found.
3. Flashed the latest stable supersu, stucked at Samsung logo.
4. Flashed the lastest beta supersu, same problem.
Even if I installed supersu via Play, it said the phone must be rooted manually first.
Now I'm back to kitkat
Any idea guys?

I too had that problem. I flashed 5.x and 4.4.2 back and forth few times, wiped/formated everything and factory reset (while you have 5.x and TWRP) including hard reset. For some reason, it went ok and I'm able to use Kitkat again.
I think it may not be the proper way to do it. I just tried every possible thing that I can think of.
I also tried Kingroot, not working. Bummer!
Someone please email chainfire the boot.img or kernel.img he may listen to us and update cf-auto-root ?

Its not recovery fault its SAMSUNG. normal root flash will not work on stock anyhow and even chainfire knows it. this is the same issue were S6 Edge suffered too. its security which checks any modification in system partition on boot and if found it wont allow system to boot thus causing bootloop and at no way recovery is at fault!
New build is UP!
KINDLY DO NOT FLASH SUPERSU IT WILL BOOTLOOP DEVICE!

Hi,
I dont think so SuperSU will work on 5.1.1 but many have said that Kingroot works so you can try that but CM is pre-rooted so anyway its possible

I wouldn't they are not compatible. Also supersu is no longer up to date. Better sticking with Magisk which is under active development.
Tried using magisk method today. I downloaded the rom from sammobile, extracted the boot.img, put it on to the phone, magisk apk than patched it. I put the patched_boot.img back onto my computer and got stuck at fasttboot. I can get "adb devices" to list and connect but nothing for fastboot. I used command- "adb reboot bootloader" -to put phone into fastboot/download mode. I use linux, but also tried it under windows xp and windows 7, I fastboot can not find my phone. Odin can see me phone (Galaxy J2 2018)
So maybe others might have the same problem, maybe I am not putting phone into fastboot mode correctly?

Samsung doesn't use fastboot. You should have used the option to create a tar file then flash with odin.

Sorry, I deleted most samsung sys apps along with getting rid of most google stuff as well. I deleted one to many last night and I have to completely start over; used odin. The boot.img I used was in the 2GB zip file I found on sammobile, opened the AP*meta.tar.md5 and extracted the boot.img. I am not a rockstar in rooting, I did check the md5sum and both where different (desktop.firmware.mobi and the one I downloaded). I will say the rom I found on sammobile was the same listed in my phone under baseband version. I was a little skeptical because I didn't see any mention of DS (dual sim), but after flashing both sims work fine.
I'm retiring my old daily driver a Samsung S2, I noticed on my J2 phone I have option to encrypt sdcard but nothing mentioned about the phones storage. I guess I have some searching to do. cheers
3 cheers for removable battery, headphone jack and root.

Hello, I used magisk as recomended. I dont have twrp and I didnt see a rooted rom anywhere. Follow the magisk link Croveritiel posted. You will need: windows with odin, samsung drivers, boot.img and magisk manager.apk installed on your phone. For finding the boot.img I looked at my phones baseband version and downloaded the same stock rom from sammobile.com, extracted the zip, and extracted boot.img from the larger ap*.md5sum file. Transfer boot.img to phone. Open magisk manager on your phone and change the settings pached boot output format to img.tar . Next is to let magisk do its thing and it will make a new file named patched_boot.img.tar (or somthing similar). Move that file onto your pc, start odin, select ap and put phone into download/odin mode. Your phone will wipe when it reboots. After it reboots put magisk manager.apk back onto your phone. Your now rooted.

@SnarfSnarf explained it all. the little difference in my case was downloading the boot.img directly from https://desktop.firmware.mobi/, I don't know if it is the right way but it worked for me.
