Use an app like wifi file transfer. You don't need cables if you have a wireless router.

You could search it, but I 'll tell you how.
1. Use Odin to flash CWM recovery over the stock recovery
2. Download the zip file to install supuersu or superuser via CWM
3. Boot into recovery and flash the zip file

Did you boot the phone into download mode before using Odin to flash CWM? If you did that try using a different USB port, reinstall drivers for note, or try running Odin in admin mode.

flash uckj4 modem with stock rooted 2.3.4

i have been searching for days and i cannot seem to find the modem for kj4 in TAR format. i have tried the websites that convert zip to tar and they do not convert where odin can read it.
What options do i have without flashing a custom kernal with CWM on it?
i have my stock 2.3.4 minus the bloatware running now and i do not want to change that as my battery life has been perfect and bug free.
Correct me if im wrong but all i need is to have the phone rooted and ODIn can flash the modem in for me?
i've tried to get CWM without flashing and apparently it cant be done.
invest in the PRO version of mobile Odin from the Play Store. Mobile Odin will flash files without changing the flash counter, too.
Here's a link to a stock kernel that has cwm. you can flash this with mobile odin, then flash whatever you want from either cwm or mobile odin
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1285823
If you're rooted, just flash the zip file, look for the modem in the modems thread in development
Edit: sorry, somehow the last part of your post didn't register in my head, lol, try the pro version of mobile Odin like mentioned above

this will work for any gingerbread: 2.3.4, 2.3.6. Just download the file (about 6 megs i think), put it on your internal sd card, open mobile odin, choose kernel, select it from your internal card, go down to "flash firmware" in mobile odin and flash it. you will now have cwm recovery, then you can flash your modem from cwm.
I have never flashed a modem from mobile odin do I don't know what type of file it will need to flash kj4.
no. you don't have to do a data wipe.

here, try this. this is the one I use if I ever flash back to stock.
thanks! worked like a charm. had to download most of the stuff to the computer first but CWM recovery is on here.
scratch that. cwm is on here but it cannot do anything. even the reboot system option doesnt work. i installed rom manager thinking it would help but that puts the phone into download mode.
i tried the flash modem with mobile odin but it wont find the modems that i have one the device. im assuming it only read TAR files. so im still back to square one.
I need this search button to pop back up on XDA

avoid Rom Manager at all costs. just put the zip of the kj4 on your sd card. boot into recovery (hold both volume buttons and power button at the same time until you see the SAMSUNG splash screen. choose zip from sd card and flash.
I'm astonished that nobody even suggested using modem.bin and odin or heimdall. No need for new kernel or cwm. My faith is waning here.

I unzipped the file and did the bin file on mobile Odin. It finally worked so I didn't need cwm which by the way doesn't work on my phone for whatever reason. I installed it from two different kernels but when I select an option the screen just sits there. Turns out kj4 sucks for me so I'm going to go try another one. My battery life had gone down with this modem.

depending on the kernel you used with CWM in it, you should probably have been using the HOME button to select

[Q] Flashed ICS on Note, now CANNOT get root!

I'm running IML74K.UCLd3, kernel 3.0.8 and android version 4.0.3.
For some reason, that ROM flashes fine. When I try to flash att_note_root.tar in Odin to get root, it all seems to go fine, then I can't boot the phone at all. It took a few tries to get back into download mode. The only thing I could do to boot the phone up was to flash the ROM again. So I still don't have root.
How can I:
Get root
Reinstall my apps (I have a Titanium backup)
Will installing old apps mess the new ROM up?
Do I need a new kernel?
I've been told to flash CWM to get root, but I don't know which version to flash.
HELP!!

Also, I flashed the MD5 file and rebooted. No root and ROM manager doesn't recognize that anything has been installed. I can also not get into recovery mode - the only choice I have is regular boot or download mode.
no but you can flash the root file once you have CWM...see rooting also in thread.

Yup...did follow the instructions. What I could NOT do was to reboot into recovery mode to finish the job. Held down vol up/down and power till the screen went black, the released vol up and power. All it did was put me in the yellow triangle screen with the options of vol down to reboot or vol up to download. No way to access recovery mode.
You let go of the wrong button...
All three buttons till you feel a vibrate..Then let off the POWER BUTTON

I found cwm sketchy with backups and switched back to braways. I had cwm touch installed and ROM manager(finally supported) but the issues were too many.
I found using "flash touch recovery" from my tools in aospxxx works nicely.

You are right! I should have been more specific! I know better! The error is: "No applications can perform this action."
Are you sure that's a recovery flashable zip, and not just a zipped up .tar package for Odin?

The file contains a directory called META-INF and recovery.img...
That's for recovery, the Mets-inf folder is the script to write the recovery.img
That's weird, You may try downloading the zip fresh, or if ask else fails grab the Odin flashable tar and use that.

Now, I can run TWRP and run it from there without any ill effects (meaning, a bricked phone!), yes?
Yup.
Given you download the correct file for this device.
If that still fails, which I dunno why I would, it should go without saying The Odin file, will need Odin a pc and a Usb cable

That has the Odin flashable cwm touch file... that version is outdated so after flashing that, you'll have cwm, but flashing a newer Rom zip might end up with a "status 7 error" in recovery.
At that point I'd personally use goo manager go grab the latest version of a cwm zip, that'll be usable in the version of cwm I posted above.

Are you saying I should _not_ use TWRP to put CWM on?
No, it should work, just saying if it still gives you the proverbial finger, Odin is your friend and that version is just the latest with an Odin .tar
So to have your cake (cwm) and eat it too (flash new roms) you'll need to update your recovery from that older version of cwm
So you said you get an error when you tap to install? You should be flashing that zip in recovery like you would a ROM or mod. Is that what you did? After it installs just reboot recovery within twrp and bam!!! You'll have cwm.
Thanks so much for your help...my problem remains, so I may go back to a stock ROM for T-Mobile, since that is my provider, and see if I can solve it... Before I installed CWM, I could sms/mms to my e-mail address...I can't any longer.

Please help. Formated everything.

If you can still go in CWM recovery mode: Turn off the phone, remove the battery and external sd card and place a cwm flashable rom on it. Put back the battery and sd card and boot in recovery and flash the rom. If you can`t get in CWM, use a jig to get in downloadmode and flash a stock rom with Odin.
