alright so after searching both here and various other sites on this question i have found nothing very helpfull...
so at the risk of being told i need to search i have to ask. I have a ATT Galaxy note I717. I did get the OTA update to 4.0. I have not yet rooted my phone but im trying to do so. Mostly so i can flash t-mobile onto it for it work properly with my 4G.
So my question is. Were is the root process for a note that already has 4.0.
I followed other instructions here http://www.androidauthority.com/galaxy-note-sgh-i717-att-clockworkmod-touch-recovery-90018/ and here http://rootgalaxynote.com/galaxy-note-root/how-to-root-galaxy-note-gt-n7000-method-2odinheimdall/.
After installing such CMW Touch i can not get it to boot to recovery. Just goes into download mode and as welll as i do not have superuser or root acces on the phone. If any one knows where i can find the procedure to gain full root access so i may start playing around that would be greatly appreciated

The second link you provided was for the International Note. That may be the problem. Use the method here: http://rootgalaxynote.com/galaxy-no...y-note-sgh-i717-icsgingerbreadeasiest-method/. I know for a fact this procedure works, as I have done it on my own Note no less than a dozen times due to the problem in my thread.
Good luck and happy rooting!

It says for ginger bread rooting. I am running 4.0 and do not wish to go back to 3. Will i keep my current 4.0 with that method or will it be flashed back to ICS
nvm do appologize,,, just caught my own noob mistake... lol
seeing that you have used this method before... when i go to flash the zip file it gives me an error and says it fails... yet i have super user and root acces on the phone now?
You don't have to root your phone to flash a modem. You don't need to have CWM to flash a modem either.
You can install the modem using Odin3 and your pc.
Agreed ....
Thank you ranger ....g

Sounds like you odin Gingerbread root on ICS...I would run the update again in download mode, to get a new complete fresh install or put CWM touch on to flash a custom ROM or if your gonna stay stock, (I use touch CWM)...and to put the ICS latest stock or Custom ROMs,
are all listed on the GNote Super page, see my links in my signature for all the ROOT for ICS and all the stock/custom ROMs.
Huh?
still stuck but thanks...
i have tried to flash the bell pda.tar stock and get the same. it was currently running the Bell ICS update ...where do i find the Bell pda.tar file for ICS so i can flash on to ClockworkMod...i have read almost everything...i know READ READ READ...any help will be great. thank bro...where do you fond time.
Hello,
Long time reader here. I finally made an account recently because I finally wanted to Root my phone and mess around with Cyanogenmod.
My question is this: I have an unlocked, unbranded Samsung GT-i9300 that I purchased from Newegg back in the summer time and I have still yet to receive any sort of update (still on 4.0.4). Can someone explain to me the whole stock updates scenario? I would have thought buying an unlocked, unbranded phone I would have at least gotten updates faster than the Verizon S3. Now.. I know I can flash Cyanogenmod and be done with it. Which I have which leads me to the last question. What happens if I flash my phone with the 4.1.2 stock rom that was just released in Poland recently? Will it work? Why wouldn't it? Does the baseband really matter as far as compatibility? (PDA? CSC?)
Thank you for your time.
I answered my own questions. Thanks for looking
I was so excited I forgot to elaborate a little.
I was successfully able to root my phone using cf root / odin, install clockworkmod recovery, install cyanogenmod 10 then re-flash back to stock using triangleaway, and a stock rom from samsung firmware using odin.
I had thought I bricked my phone when it was in an endless loop on the splash screen but I was able to get into android recovery mod and do a format/wipe/clean cache. *phew*
Great phone even in stock form. Its only been on the market for about a month so I doubt there are any custom ROMs out there for it yet, but I am sure folks are already working towards that. In any event I would like to root the device. I've tried superoneclick and Im getting stuck on step 7, so its recommended to do a manual root at this point. I am curious if anyone else has been able to root this device and if so, whats the best method? Are there any custom Jelly Bean ROMs out there for it yet?
Also - to the moderators, can we add a section for this phone? I cant see it listed in any of the forums yet. Thanks!
I have been looking around for a method to root the Samsung Stratosphere II with no luck yet. It is the best QWERTY phone out there. I've been surprised at how little buzz it's been generating. I blame Verizon for such a horrible launch and lackluster demand.
I definitely want custom ROM control of the phone as I intend to use it for years.
Yeah its a great phone, very fast and responsive. I'd like to get Jelly bean on it and see how it runs. Mods, can we get a sub forum set up for this phone? It would be great to get development started as soon as possible. Any suggestions on root or pushing superuser to this? Think I can use the stock recovery to push su and busybox?
Mods? Are you out there?

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2122682 says it can root your phone
Barring that, I've read you can't flash to your recovery partition with odin, but you should be able to flash to the system partition. You should be able to dump out a stock odin image and manually root it and then repackage it as a tar. pm me for some pointers on how to do that.
i just checked for a software update on my wife's Stratosphere II SCH-i415 and there is one. I live in NC the update was under settings/about device/ software update. its form Verizon size 506.6 MB. is there a way to pull it before it installs? maybe a root method. I installed it. could not wait. well its jellybean went from 4.0.4 to 4.1.2 baseband 1415vrlj2 to i415vrbma3 kernel was 3.0.8-1157001 to 3.0.31-947060
Just a bump, because the device has a working root method for OTA JB devices, and it could use CWM Recovery support as well as Google Wallet porting and some custom ROMs... the usual flurry of activity around an Android device with root.

4.0.4 Does any one have stock rom for that version for SS2
Hey all, I'm trying to root and get LiquidSmooth on my brother's AT&T Note. I've rooted a few devices in the past and my own Note II is running on 4.4 Slimbean. Problem is all the guides I can find for rooting are assuming that the phone is on ICS or GB. Is there any way to root if the phone is already on JB?
I did find these two thread with links to the original firmware:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1657279
and
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1657262
Would I just flash one of the above using Odin and then follow the thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1586223 ... or is there a more up to date guide somewhere out there?
Also, using an US AT&T Note is the Bell or Rogers firmware the equivalent version?
I've tried searching and couldn't easily find any information on this so any input is appreciated.
It does not matter what Android version as long as you are not installing a kernel to root. To root ANY version safely look here:

Guys, I've been reading and reading through thread after thread and can't seem to find a definite and safe method for rooting my Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0 (U.S.) with 2.3.6. -I read about superoneclick and framaroot and it sounds like these methods work on devices running 2.3.5 but not the one I have. I want to use voodoo sound - that is really the primary and only reason I am trying to go through the trouble of rooting. I'm just tired of reading and searching now - could someone tell me what method works to root my device described above? thanks.
I used iroot worked first time out of the box

I just used Kingo Root - worked fine on 2.3.6. Now I am trying to figure out the next step - creating a nandroid before I go any further. It's proving to be a bit confusing. CWM seems popular but the app page for ROM Manager (I assume I need this to use it?) says I need a kernel that is compatible - where do I get that? I don't want to install a special kernel yet because I want to back up my current system which is working fine right now so I can go back to it. Does the kernel even matter in the back up process? I just don't understand it all quite yet. Should I use TWRP instead? Maybe with that one I don't need a compatible kernel? Help....
