Can someone at XDA please start a sub forum for the Korean Note? People with versions SHV-E160K SHV-E160L & SHV-E160S need a place to discuss their devices and get some development going on for their Notes too. I believe if they had their own forum they too would have custom roms and mods for their devices instead of asking on the other Note forums if our roms will work on their devices.

I don't think your right about that. If there was devs with the device of course they would dev for it.

I do believe they desrve their own niche somewhere. I doubt they will get their own section but maybe a sub forum under the n7000 or I717 forum.
Thanks for your proposal. We also need a froum or subforum for Japanese Version of Galaxy Note SC-05D

Any moderators listening? A sub forum under i717 would certainly be helpful for Korean G note users
I know its not a popular phone but a friend of mine and his wife living in Korea both have one and as it stands now I think he can only just barely root the damn thing.

Dont put out this bad information I also have a Korean note and it was easy to root. I also would like to see custom roms.
i dont think this will happen.not enough ppl have one and as far as custom roms go..i dont even think thiers any devs to even do any??
but i do think its a good idea for ppl who own this version of the note so you all can talk and discuss.
good luck...

Your friends can ask their korean friends for help. There are lots of forums to root and customize E160. All they need is understanding Korean language. lol

Are you still running GB on your phone ?
Hi Guys,
I was able to root my Galaxy Note SHV-E160s. I know it is rooted because I can run apps that needs root access. Many Thanks to Tegrak who made this possible. Now the only thing missing is a CUSTOM ROM. Before, they said that it is impossible to upgrade the HTC BlueAngel to Windows 6.5, but it was a success and now an old friend on mine (D-TWO) was able to make android work on it. Before, they said that HTC HD2 can not be upgraded to Android but lookwhere it is right now. Running on ICS and beta JB. Galaxy Note SHV-e160s, is not far from it. If more people will request here, developers will listen. Please let's make this happen.
I want to share how I was able to root my Note (SHV E160s) successfully. All credits goest to Tegrak.

First I downloaded these files
>Tegrak-Kernel-Build-32-for-SHV-E160S-FA09.recovery.tar
>Tegrak-Kernel-Build-32-for-SHV-E160S-FA09.zip
>SAMSUNG_USB_Driver_for_Mobile_Phones_x86.exe
>SAMSUNG_USB_Driver_for_Mobile_Phones.exe
>Odin3_v1.85_intratech.zip
>TEGRAK app https://play.google.com/store/apps/...t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS50ZWdyYWsubGFnZml4Il0.
The Build number of my Note is SHV_E160s_FA09, that's the reason why I'm gonna use the files mentioned above.
1. Installed TEGRAK APP. (look in Google Play)
2. Save Tegrak-Kernel-Build-32-for-SHV-E160S-FA09.zip on my phone. Should be in internal memory /sdcard/tegrak/update folder
3. Save the file Tegrak-Kernel-Build-32-for-SHV-E160S-FA09.recovery.tar in my laptop
4. Installed Samsung USB Drivers
5. run ODIN
6. Turned off the phone and went to download mode (hold power + home button + volume down key)
7. Connected the phone to my laptop
8. Once Odin detected the phone I clicked on PDA and searched for Tegrak-Kernel-Build-32-for-SHV-E160S-FA09.recovery.tar
NOTE: Do not tick on anything, just leave everything the way it is.
9. Click on start....wait....wait...it will tell you when it's done and you phone will automatically boot itself
10. Turn off the phone again.
11. Go to recovery mode (power button + BOTH volume keys0 and once you see the SAMSUNG name, unhold the power button while holding BOTH volume keys. And you will have the recovery mode. You will have two options, select the second one where it says install from ZIP and look for Tegrak-Kernel-Build-32-for-SHV-E160S-FA09.recovery.tar and flash it. Once done, it will reboot your phone.
12. Go to your apps and run Tegrak Kernel App. Tap on Enable rooting. And will then give you a message where it says "Success! done."
Your Samsung Galaxy Note SHV-E160s is now ROOTED.
Try it, run some apps that needs root access.
Now, let's look for a custom ROM!

Hi, I asume you upgrade it by kies, then rooted it?? did you use the manual from red_hanks??
that's right, but we have found another one (maybe better ) tutorial;
SHV-E160S Samsung Galaxy Note
Written by Marvill Web Development Published on 03 August 2012
I recently acquired a galaxy note that was manufactured in korea the specs are similar to the galaxy note manufactured here in the Philippines however 4G LTE Version and has an internal storage of 32GB. What is noteworthy to consider is it comes with the software upgrade from Samsung with Google’s ICS 4.0.4. For those interested in getting the galaxy note version you have to remember that there are slight difference in their software even its developers have a different approach in rooting the device.
The major problem with this device is its SMS service since it is limited to 80 characters only and it automatically converts it to MMS which don’t really use here in the Philippines, even installing Handcent and Go SMS Pro doesn’t support sending with its SMS service. If you can live with sending multiple SMS with 80 characters each then this version is ok for you.
I know a lot of you are asking can it be rooted??? Well the good news for you is it can rooted but you have to follow the steps that I was able to gather from the net. I don’t take credit from any of this development I am just summarizing the research I was able to gather from the net. So not unless you are ready to gamble your device remember that it might take hours for you to recover your device just in case you brick it.
Links required for upgrading and rooting:
Here you will be able to find the download file for Samsung Kies. (Required for Galaxy Note Drivers)
http://downloadandroidrom.com/file/Samsung/Kies_2.0.3.11082_152_4.exe
Here you will find the list of flashable firmwares for your device.
http://pspmaster.tistory.com/m/post/view/id/179
Here you will find the rooting files that you will need to use to root your Galaxy Note:
http://pspmaster.tistory.com/181
Here you can download the ODIN 1.85. (Required and will be used to flash stock firmware and recovery.
http://downloadandroidrom.com/file/Samsung/ODIN/Odin3_v1.85.zip
Take Note of the firmwares name when you download the one which has FA09 is the gingerbread firmware and the one which has UF13 is ice cream sandwhich. Please make in downloading the recovery and zip you should match this filename also.
Flashing Stock Firmware:
1. Download your choice of firmware, the file has been split to several parts so you will need 7Zip to extract them in one sing Tar file. Each Split of file amounts to 10MB except the last one.
2. After having downloaded all the files make sure to download Odin 1.85
3. Completely Shut Down your device, once device has been shut down press the following combination Vol Down + Home + Power (You will See a Korean boot logo) Once you see the Logo press up then you will enter Download Mode.
4. Fire up Odin then connect your USB cable with your desktop and device. You will then see in Odin that your device com port filled in yellow that means your devices is detected and ready to be flashed. Click on PDA and select the firmware that you have extracted and press start. Make sure that your device is in a solid state and stable while flashing.
5. Once Success of Update has been made then the device will reboot with your firmware this may take a few minutes in booting up.
For Rooting the device here are the steps:
SPECIAL THANKS TO Jayson Post on Steps how to Root. Ok for those of you who are new to this (like me) i managed to root it; because i can now access system files so im pretty sure i’m rooted (because rooting gives you access to system files! kinda like getting permission for administrator control over your device). i’ll make it as detailed as possible for us noobs make sure you download Odin, the .tar file and the .zip file for your specific model.
1. turn off your korean Galaxy Note (mine is SHV-E160S)
2. connect usb cable to your pc (make sure you have Samsung Kies installed so your phone will be recognized during recovery mode)
3. hold down the ff buttons: volume down + home + power, you will see a warning sign with korean writing…… press volume up
4. go to your desktop/laptop and run Odin v1.85, you should have a yellow “0:[COM10]” at the left side to continue
5. look for a tab that says “PDA” and select the .tar file for your model (in my case i’m using a SHV-E160S model so my file was “Tegrak-Kernel-Build-32-for-SHV-E160S-FA09.recovery.tar”)
6. click “Start” and wait for the reboot
7. next is turn off the device again, once the device is fully turned off… hold the following buttons: volume up + volume down
8. while holding down the volume buttons, turn on the device by pressing the power button
9. you should be in Tegrak’s recovery mode by now, you will be in a black screen with writings saying “Tegrak Kernel Build 32″ highlighted yellow at the top of the screen
10. navigate the menu with the volume buttons and select by pressing the home button…. search for your .zip file (in my case it is “Tegrak-Kernel-Build-32-for-SHV-E160S-FA09.zip”) and select that with the power button
Next thing i did was wait for the device to power back up and went in Google Play store. downloaded “Tegrak Kernel” first then downloaded “Superuser”. opened Tegrak Kernel and tapped “enable rooting”.. with this i was able to access my system files with this method http://dottech.org/android/17673/use-android-mate-free-to-remove-bloatware-from-your-android-phone/
Battery Efficiency:
After a number of test for the Galaxy Note the following things are required to get the best out of its battery usage.
Free Apps to Download:
1. Battery Calibration
2. Tegrak Overclock
3. CPU Spy
4. Temp CPU
Paid Apps Optional
1. Tegrak Overclock Donate (In this app you will be able to adjust voltage of your kernel however please proceed with caution)
2. Rom ToolBox Pro
3. CPU Sleeper
Steps to get the best out of your battery: (Preferred to be done on the evening before you sleep)
1. Charge your device to 100% then start Battery Calibration and Allow Permissions
2. Once you have reached 100% turn off device remove battery for a minute or two and plug it back in then start your device again.
3. Once you have boot your device go to ROM Toolbox and use Auto Start check out the Apps running on startup and disable those you don’t need to run in boot. (Proceed with caution and make sure that you don’t disable system apps which should run on boot).
4. Go to Settings > Apps > and see downloaded apps for some reason ICS starts a lot of applications which you have downloaded Force Close each App that you don’t need to be running in the background.
5. Open Tegrak Overclock and Load Overclock then go to Scaling and choose powersave governor and set min to 192 and the max to 1134 I tested this and it seemed to be able to handle the device properly. (Take Note that ICS applies your current scaling but does not show actual use of CPU this is why you need to download TempCPU which will give you the active scaling of your CPU)

we are all waiting for some custom rom... but... i'm not so optimistic...
P.S. can you upload for us those 6 files from your /system/app folder? called SEC-MMS (with odex and apk extensions)?
Few of us have deleted and now we can not send SMS messages any more without those files, so please, be kind?
Its been couple of months I am trying to root my Galaxy S2 I9100G which was bought from China. I made deep research on XDA Forum to find any easy method! Several threads out there. At first I tried to follow this thread
The above thread founded helpful for maximum users with any problem. I tried by the provided steps with their "Superatmos (version 2.1 is very stable and recommended)" Kernel.....And it worked...rooted...but vibration function was disable (other users also had this type of problem). Then tried also to check hardware of my phone and everything was fine..I was keep looking for solution and someone on that thread said to "Flash Again With Original Stock Kernel". Well then I flashed again with INDIAN Stock Kernel...........and the result------ my phone was not booting up, only the Yellow Triangle was showing with Samsung Logo. I was just to pull my hairs when I found that many other people had this type of problem and the reason is HARD BRICKED..!!!!
Luckily my phone was restarted in download mode, and then I flashed again with "Superatmos_v3.0_XXLA1" Kernel. and voila! it restarted, booted, rooted and vibration was working again....!
Please note- Binary counter / Yellow Triangle will show. please check this pdf file by the thread-owner --http://db.tt/BwlUTGIl
The only reason for sharing my details above by thinking, its possible that other users may have this kinda problem. so this thread would be make them to relax a little bit. Now below I am repeating the steps for Rooting a Chinese Galaxy S2 I9100G with links. (Followed to Paras Lehana's original thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1570377)
1) Download Odin and install -- View attachment Odin3-v1.85.zip
2) Download this Superatmos Kernel file -- View attachment superatmos_v3.0_XXLA1.tar Believe me it will work any problem. You may try other version, but I Superatmos ver 2.1 which is recommended most wont work...anymore.
3) Go to Download Mode : Turn off phone. Hold vol down+home+turn on button. Release the on button after phone is turning on. After a few second, release all buttons. After that vol up.
4) Run Odin, connect phone with usb cable, yellow COMx will be shown in Odin. (Re-partition should not be ticked (no pit file is required here)
5) Select PDA button, choose the downloaded kernel file (usually a .tar file)
6) Click Start, a PASS will be shown if succeed.
That's it. you are rooted. please check other guidance for CWM Recovery / Super User / Remove Triangle / Binary Counter etc. on the thread-owner's pdf file.
Note: Users who don't wanna flash their Chinese ROM with any other but still wanna access Google/Play etc. they could follow above steps. And after rooting please follow this thread --- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=29464673
Also users may follow below steps for replacing their Chinese ROM to Any Other.(After ROOT)
This method requirement is root access and Mobile Odin Pro only. Even if the phone are rooted with doomlord’s method and you chose not to have CWM support, it will work too
1) Download the stock firmware and copy it to the root of sdcard (internal). “tar” and “tar.md5”will be supported also.
please check on Sammobile for stock frimwares.
2) Install Mobile Odin Pro
you could search on google for Mobile Odin Pro to get shared pro version file.
3) Run the application and from “Open file …” select file that you just copied into the phone
4) If Everroot option is not ticked itself, please tick it if you want the phone to be automatically rooted during the process
5) I will recommend to tick all three options inside Everroot
6) And also please ticked the wipe data option but it is optional, but can reduce any bugs
7) Start the flashing
8) Result : root access, no CWM support, no busybox
Followed the original post----http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1570377
I just wanted to associate together all required steps posted on XDA by some real professionals. So it will be easier for those people who is still searching on for Rooing Methods for Chinese Galaxy S2 I9100G.
Thanks
tried it, but couldn't get it to work
Thanks for that.
I have an SGS2
Model number GT-9100G
Android version 4.04
Baseband version I9100GZCLPL
Kernel version 3.0.8-1067026
Build number IMM76D.ZCLPL
On download screen
PRODUCT NAME: GT-i9100G_CHN_CHN

PDA: I9100GZCLPL
PHONE: I9100GZCLPL
CSC: I9100GOZHLPL
Build Info: Fri Oct 5 14:28:15 KST 2012
I tried flashing with the 3.0 XXLA1 tar as above and when the phone reboots it gets stuck on the first Samsung screen.
I can't get the old superatmos 2.1 kernel anymore (the "very stable and recommended' version) because the file has disappeared from Mediafire.
The old link was http://www.mediafire.com/?14qqbaw311b3wpm
I also tried 2.1.1 and 2.2 from http://www.android-hilfe.de/2869772-post2.html ... and I think 3.2 as well. They have the same problem.
I was a bit scared but downloaded the old I9100GOZHLPL file from
http://sampro.pl/firmware/android/samsung-i9100g/
and put the .tar.md5 file in the "PDA" box, clicked Start and that always takes it back to where it was (ie working again!).
I read through lots of threads here and followed all the little small instructions: USB debug mode on on phone, PIN off, KIES uninstalled on computer, no SD card. But battery and SIM card still in. The only bit I didn't follow was the "you have to install v1.0 first" advice from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=22421729&postcount=150 because it wasn't in this post. And of course I would like to repeat what you did _exactly_ by getting the 2.1 kernel but can't find it anywhere anymore.
A Chinese page at http://zhidao.baidu.com/question/510191290.html talks about SuperOneClick working but I haven't tried it.
Another page at http://androidforums.com/galaxy-s2-...37-galaxy-s2-gt-i9100g-all-things-root-4.html talks about a ROM that works on all phones except the Chinese variant
Any suggestions?
Hi everyone. I've had my I9305 for about a year now. When I got it, I rooted the phone. Now, I've been out of the rooting/custom ROM scene since then, and I'm trying my best to figure out how to do what I'm trying to do.
I want to make CyanogenMod my OS. After much researching and googling I've learned that the best way for me to continue is to restore my device to stock condition and start from scratch. This is after trying to boot into Download mode and trying to flash Clockwork Touch 6.0.3.1 .
Note: I've made sure all my connections are good, attached the USB cable to the back of the motherboard (no USB hubs) and tried different USB cords. The phone is fully charged. No SIM card or SD card in the device.
So far I've tried using Heimdall 1.4RC2 to flash CWT. It proceeds very quickly and does not show a blue progress bar on the phone.
I then tried to use ODIN to flash the stock recovery. That one also proceeds very quickly and does not show a green button until I remove the device from the computer.
Now, I can no longer boot the device. I get as far as the first Samsung logo and after half a second it disappears and turns off.
It might be valuable to note that I cannot boot into recovery mode. When I press the button combination I get the blue dialog above the Samsung logo but it disappears in half a second and the device appears to turn off. The reason I say it appears to, is because the screen turns black and the power button no longer turns it on until I remove and replace the battery.
Good news is I can still boot into Download Mode.
I really do not want to continue at this point because I am too afraid of bricking the device.
The phone is not vital, as I've bought an LG G2 to use as my main device and will not be rooting or fooling around with it.
I would more or less like to use this Galaxy S3 as a teaching tool.
I hope I've provided enough information and hope someone can be a guide for me!
Thx to all,
Mike
Hey,
Sounds like you are having a driver issue on your pc.
1. Charge your phone!!
2. Assuming you are using windows, try google for i9300 usb drivers. After installing flash philz recovery via odin and try to reboot to recovery.
Good luck!
Or you could install Samsung Kies to get the USB drivers.
Also, don't forget to turn on USB Debug mode in the developer settings.
A good resource I found when trying to root and install a custom recovery was Android Geeks. They have many tutorials. (disclaimer: I am not affiliated with Android Geeks at all)
I recommend you to root and install a custom recovery using ODIN. I've done precisely this, and I use CWM and have no problem. I've tried many roms and it works like a charm (currently on Temasek's 4.4 ROM).
>>>>>Also, don't forget to turn on USB Debug mode in the developer settings.

This is where I am confused... After reading all of those two posts I'm still unsure about what to do.
I cannot boot into my device and therefore can not install proper drivers or enable USB debugging.
I have went ahead and installed "Samsung Galaxy S3 Unified Toolkit v7.0.0" to try and guide me along this complicated process.
After following the instructions given by the toolkit (to a tee) I am unable to get a serial number at the top of the menu, and therefore cannot continue with that program.
So is the first step in this whole process getting the recovery to work? If so, where should I start since I cannot even boot into it nor talk to my phone properly with my current drivers.
The only thing I have working right now is Download Mode.
The screen shows the following text:
ODIN MODE
PRODUCT NAME: SGH-I747M
CUSTOM BINARY DOWNLOAD: Yes (18 counts)
CURRENT BINARY: Custom
SYSTEM STATUS: Custom
QUALCOMM SECUREBOOT: ENABLE
I am unable to find the answer to my problem at this point...
If someone needs more information in order to help me don't hesitate to ask.
Thx everyone,
Mike
NOTE: I tried using the recovery.img file included with the above mentioned toolkit with Heimdall and I was able to successfully boot into recovery mode. I did a data cache reset and also a factory reset but I am still unable to boot into the android OS.
NOTE2: I downloaded the stock rom for my device, which I later found out was codenamed d2att or SGH-I747. Mine is actually the Canadian Bell SGH-I747M. Roms for the d2att still work on my phone though. So I flashed the ROM using ODIN after I installed the drivers using the zadig.exe file included with the Heimdall package. The flash worked like a charm. When my phone rebooted it immediately booted into recovery with some errors in red (those of which I can't remember). When I rebooted my device shows the glowing Samsung logo and stays there. It does not load into the OS.
u should search "softbrick" thread I think
thats happen to me in my first experience installing custom roms, in xda dont worry if u're phone softbrick or hardbrick. because there's answer in every problem u have. search search search, dont give up man!

My bad, I only found out half way through what phone I actually had. I will post in the right forum.
So I was trying to root my phone last night and watched some guides but none of them matched my Samsung Galaxy S4 4.4.2 SGH-1337m Sasktel so then I finally found an article: I cant post the link but the title was Samsung Galaxy S4 Android 4.4.2 KitKat Update: How To Root SGH-I337M Variant On Latest OS And Install Custom ROMs [TUTORIAL] Please look at it.
And so I used odin 3.09 exe and AP'd cf-autoroot and in the middle of the download it said failed rather than pass. After that I just pressed exit and pulled the plug, now my phone is saying Firm Upgrade encountered an issue...please selyatta yatta yatta.
Help is appreciated!
Hey dont take tension your phone is still alive it happened to me alao while rooting.It has simple solution just connect your phone to pc and open download mode in your phone then start odin and select that cf autoroot file and start rooting and after some minute your phone will be rooted and it will be working properly.

Hey.
I have a question, if there is anyone who knows how to help me with getting root access for my phone (Tesla 6.2 lite).
Before I continue: this is my first post on this forum, so I don't even know if the topic is in the correct "department", so please mods feel free to move it to another section if it is not correct. Thank you.
Ok back to my problem:
I have this phone (mentioned above), which I need root access to. I have tried with one-click root programes (KingoRoot, KingRoot, OneClick, ...) and had no luck. Then I went on to try MTKdroidTools, SP_Flash_Tools, and yet no luck. All I was able to do is to unlock bootloader using Fastboot in CMD.
I have also tried booting .img files through SDcard and didn't work. I don't know all about rooting, but this is such a specific phone, that I wasn't able to find any tutorial on how to do it properly. I used to root my Huawei P7 and Samsung S5, Samsung Ace; but that was very easy via one-click root options and/or SDcard flashing (for custom ROMs).
I tried with USB debugging on, OEM on, ...
To recap, I only need an "admin" or "root" access to my phone, not necessarily a full custom ROM.
