Here's what I want.. - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717

I wanna try staying on stock rom for everything except root. Which rooting method should I use just so that I can have root on the stock rom?
P.S. I'm gonna flash back to complete stock with Odin. Thanks.

I understand about the Odin, but on the Android development forum for the note there are like 3-4 different root methods. I'm just looking to have root on the stock rom and nothing else.

I used this method. Worked flawless. I rooted, followed his instructions for CWM, and stayed stock. Good luck my nizzle!!!

[Q] Rooted successful, but have question

Hi all,
i Rooted my SGS2 as mentioned in this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075278 . It was so easy, and very thankful to intratech and chainfire. I was doing step by step process as mentioned in the post. I completed the flash of insecure kernel from chainfire(CF-Root-SGS2_UH_MUL_KG7-v4.1-CWM4.tar). Then i started SuperOneClick, it gave a message "Already have a root do you want to proceed ?" i clicked NO and flashed back stock kernel and confirmed i got root. But my question is, i just flashing with insecure kernel got root then why we use SuperOneClick ?? Please advise..
merin
You flashed cf root which give you root automatically, there is a different kernel which is the insecure one.

Nope, if you have flashed cf root, got root, and put your stock kernel back you are all good.

No, but readme
Read the link that veyka mentioned, quite comprehensive.
CF-Root is what I've used, its not difficult but ofcourse make sure u backup and follow the steps correctly.
There is another method using a program called One Click Root, google it. i tried it worked and rooted and automatically installed superuser, but it was weird when i rebooted my phone it was not rooted!, so i used CF-Root method.
I'm only guessing here sorry.
Update.zip from the stock recovery. Never made one to try if it can be done.
Are you not able to use Odin via your computer for the 1st root flash?
If you can then you can use mobile Odin for flashing without the computer after that. Eg. Download Odin compatible firmware/kernel/modem etc directly to your phone then flash using mobile Odin. No pc involved.
Good luck.

At the moment I can't use a PC, maybe in a week or 2 (if I'm lucky 1). That's why I searched for an app. Nothing worked right now.
I appreciate all of your help!

Maybe ask chainfire if he can make an update.zip of 1 of his kernels for you???

Can I use an update.zip on a stock ROM?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
Its been a while since ive seen the stock recovery but I believe you can only use an update.zip with stock.
It's got to be created the right way though. Can't just rename a zip to update.zip.

HELP - Stuck in Bootloop

I am running a rooted TB on iKream and I have sold it so I popped in another SD card and started a factory reset. Phone shut off and then was stuck in the startup animation for over half hour. I can get to recovery and tried reset and reboot from there with the same results.
What can I do from here???

Can you be a little more specific? Flash the ROM again??
Sent from my XT907 Scorpion_Mini
You need to flash a different Rom now. You could just get a stock ruu which would be easier. You can't do a factory reset on most custom roms.

Here is a link to the latest HTC firmware. There is a totally stock unrooted and rooted version. This is not the ics leak.

Sorry if the links don't work. I didn't check them but if they don't I'm sure someone there probably has the ruu. Heath probably has it if you can't find one.

I dont have a computer....i need a flashable one through recovery
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
Saurom is your only flashable GB build in this section..
Check the super thread at the top of the general section, and scroll down to the roms.
Read "carefully"....before flashing...
Saurom is a loaded version of 2.3.6 with many extras ....I like it ...g
Hmmm. Do you happen to have a backup of your stock ROM (gingerbread). From before you flashed a custom ROM? If so then all you need is the stock kernel and modem. I have a flash able zip for the stock recovery I can give you, but no longer have the kernel and modem on hand.

Well, your only other option is trying Saurom. Its about the only GB ROM you can flash. Otherwise you'll need to find a computer you can use to use Odin and follow the steps in the link I posted above.

I heard twrp was not always safe to use is this true
Sent from my SM-N900P using xda app-developers app
Safer than CWM at the moment.
Don't restore backups yet. If you dont know what you are doing follow instructions.
You can easily brick your phone while in recovery. Be aware of that. Be careful.
