Hi all,
Before I write up, I just wanna say that I am familiar with rooting/unrooting procedure, cwm installation, rom installation etc. I used to own Galazy Nexus and was very comfortable flashing custom stuff on it.
Now that I own a Note 2 (T-mobile), I recently got an update (firmware) from T-Mobile and I am not sure which of the versions I need to install to get it working correctly.
Here are the details

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
So can anyone guide me which tools and software to use to get it rooted, custom recovery and in turn make way to install a custom rom.
Odin the TWRP, then flash supersu 2.45. I'm not sure about the 4.3 bootloader though. It might trip your Knox.

I'm not sure if it has been mentioned but I used this handy app back when I had my evo 3d on hboot 1.5 that locked the boot partition preventing a kernel flash in early twrp and cwm and it's also very handy using it to update recoveries too.
Gnex is supported and I have tested kernel img & zips along with recovery img and zips also.
Enjoy

yet another way for rooted users to get certain partitions back 2 stock without usb.
I love this application. I've been rocking it ever since it came out. It was definitely worth the purchase to support Joey.
I had my AT&T HTC One M8 on the Google Play Edition RUU for a while and decided to switch back to Sense using this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2733523
However, I can't figure out how to get a new operating system back on there. I flashed some firmware and after a few issues with the phone not going into custom recovery mode (solved by using a different firmware version), I got TWRP to work. I still can't get an actual OS on there, though.
Trying to boot the phone to system just opens recovery and I would normally try to install a ROM via TWRP but any time I try to put files on the phone, I get an error like this:

I'm clearly not an expert with this stuff. I just want to get my phone back to the way it was when I got it. Anyone have any ideas?
I've unlocked my bootloader and verified that it is rooted via Root Checker. That is all I did thus far, before that my note 4 was virgin unmodified in any way. How can I safely upgrade from 5.0.1 to 5.1.1... or should I update to 6.0? I want to install a custom ROM. Also if I wanted to go back to any stock ROM, can I just flash it via odin without any issues now that my phone is set to Developer mode? is there a different version I need to use or can I still use the following thread?

On a side note, I tried to flash 5.0.1 stock and 5.1.1 stock from the link above... it simply failed when trying to flash it... see pic below
I've been out of the loop for rooting, it's been some years since I've rooted an android device, so any and all relevant advice/info would be appreciated... Thanks in advance...

Hey guys,
I want to sell my old backup phone Galaxy A320FL. In the distant past I once installed LineageOS 16, but now I'd like to revert completely to the original stock ROM.
So my question is:
Can one of you provide me with the steps needed to take to make this happen?
And preferably a link to the (Dutch / PHN) stock rom files wich doesn't limit speed to 100b/s
Also, when I boot the phone it always says KERNEL IS NOT SEANDROID ENFORCING and sometimes it gets stuck in boot. And when i go into download mode i get this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
It says WARRANTY VOID
Is that going to be a problem?
And I don't know if this matters, but I'm using Ubuntu.
So i have to use adb or something?
These are a lot of questions, but I hope you can help me a bit on this.

well im stuck. looks like flashing the 6.0.1 stock ware destroyed my pre-exisitng root. Can someone help? has anything changed in the last few yrs.(to make it easier)..anyway to root from 6.0.1 or do i have to do the pain downgrade to 5.0.1...? ( i tried cf-root and twrp - both failed..the bootloader is locked ..damn it..)
1) since i'm not rooted then any backup would not contain all the settings (pw/usernames etc)....its been a few years..is there anyway to keep full settings in a backup without being rooted?
2) if i downgradefrom 6.0.1 and flash the 5.0.1 firmware will my programs / settings be kept? I only ask because if i don't bother clearing the cache ....it may be "dirty" downgrade...but would i keep my apps/settings?
3) if i d/g to 5.01 and root it...how do i then upgrade back to 6.01 without losing the root again?
pics below of current situation...thanks
