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

srry didn't read your reply before i post mine, if u can flash the rom via odin, just try again to root but from another link, i can't put external links, follow a good tutorial for root, and i recommend twrp recovery

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

if u can't boot, try to flash ur stock rom again first.
in flashing cwm via odin, u don't need to put anything aside from ops (ancora ops), one package (recovery .md5 file)

Hi All,
I just wanted to come back to complete 100% warranty from my current rom using CWM flashable zip file. Even after reading so many forums, I couldn't find an all-in-one thread which contains a guide to regain 100% warranty including reset the custom ROM flash counter to 0 and stock recovery. I hope you find this handy.
We have so many threads to reset the custom ROM flash counter to 0, but it is also very much necessary to have the Stock Samsung Recovery to claim your warranty. Although you still can enjoy the full root access but if you want to unroot then you can simply use Superuser app settings menu.
Because we need to claim warranty when there is some major issue in the handset or our system has got corrupted and we cant reboot anymore. Then we can go to CWM and flash any rom but to go to service center we need to remove CWM.

Step 2: Follow the steps given in the thread to reset the custom ROM flash counter to 0.
Step 3: Now go to CWM Recovery and flash Stock Recovery.zip file (given in the attachment) to gain the STOCK SAMSUNG RECOVERY.
CONGRATULATIONS NOW YOU HAVE GAINED 100% WARRANTY. Stock Recovery, Stock Firmware and Unrooted.

This method is tested and proved successful on the Stock Based Roms.

Hey what about device status? after doing this method it will be custom or official? nd can we get update from software update?
another very important item for warranty is your original CSC. Example if you flash Russian 4.2.2 firmware your CSC becomes SER. You have to be sure that this is also changed when you go back to stock firmware OF YOUR REGION example India will be INU. Connect your grand to kies and check for the correct CSC before going to service to claim warranty,
I would also like to add that before flashing anything on your device to check and note your original CSC. Believe me this is most of the time checked by the service staff....

Easy way....

Right. That procedure is same as youtube cursed4eva method.
I believe there is no way to get back to stock without using odin more so if on 4.2.2
can I root the phone & then flash this stock recovery again to receive system updates & still keep root privileges?
Works with I9082L version ? Thanks !
Nice One :fingers-crossed:
does this method works with 4.2.2?
I believe even Xposed works...
bro.when i install stock recovery it shows installation aborted.what to do now
reply asap.!!!
It doesn't works with 4.2.2

Hi Everyone,
I need help rooting my Samsung Galaxy Note 2 GT-N7100. Consider me a noob. I've been seeing youtube videos on how to do it... been reading forums... have tried everything I could... but this phone just doesn't root. I have tried rooting and i have failed miserably. I then had to flash the stock firmware... I am running android 4.4.2.. You can see the attached image.
I would like to root this phone and flash android lollipop or some other custom rom onto it. YOUR HELP WILL BE DEFINITELY APPRECIATED. Thank you ahead of time.

I dont like lollipop and i had lectures on flashing so i wanted to be on kitkat so here is a working downgrading tutorial. I dont have time to explain full steps. but a normal flasher will understand . I was not able to install cwm or any other recovery on lollipop . It always used to take me to stock recovery . I used many methods but was unsuccessful in install recovery . I used flash tool to flash img and many other techniques so later i just booted from recovery and rooted without recovery installed. I was not able to flash stock Kitkat rom on lollipop . There was some error .
Below are all simple steps for downgrade . Special thanks to varun . He helped me a lot. All DEVs for providing files. I have provided all download links at last with video tutorial and full tutorial links to understand each step clearly .

Trying to downgrade from Android 6.0.1 to 4.4.4. Used SP Flash tools after unlocking the bootloader, but the phone never gets detected in SP Flash Tools. Tried both the "Firmware upgrade" and "Download Only" options. Any idea what could be the issue?
