About to root my t-mobile s3 but was wondering do we have clock work mod touch for recovery?
Does it matter that much?

No not really im going to root regardless, but it was kind of nice to use was just wondering.
The international version does so I would assume yours does as well

Well I just rooted and it just has the normal cwm no touch, and I didn't see the touch one anywhere in the forums here yet so I don't think we have it yet.
Sort of off topic but I didn't want to start another thread- T999 I just rooted and installed tit backup. Does it install busy box automatically? I looked at the tit settings and it said it was installed. Or should I just download the busy box app just to make sure.

Just another quick note- The rooted recovery right now also doesn't support external sd card yet either. In the development thread there is a link to a new recovery with ext sd support but somebody said they were having problems so I'm gonna hold off on it.

I do not know if titanium backup installs busy box.. I had the app for a while but if it says it is installed I am sure it is

So from my little bit if reading through Samsung it seems that the only recovery everyone uses is cwm.. are there any other options like the 4ext? Or atleast cwm touch?

I was more or less asking if it was possible because I'm new to Samsung and all I see is Odin cwm in the Samsung forums. I'm coming from HTC so my knowledge is back to ubernoob when it cones to root. I know this phone is new, hell big red isn't even out yet so I wasn't like Wtf how come it isn't done yet.

I would wait a bit to install either of the cwm recoveries. Neither one work 100% yet. There are some issues with both.
I'm the proud owner of a Galaxy Note i717 but the limitations of gingerbread are driving me crazy....so the first thing I want to do is root and flash a different ROM problem is I'm without a computer ugh.
I came across a YouTube video showing how to root the other model without using a computer so I was wondering if anyone knew of a solution for the i717 model.
So is it possible to root the i717 galaxy note without a computer?
Help me out here guys any feedback is much appreciated....

I highly discourage trying anything other than what is posted in these threads...since it has been proven to best and most effective why of rooting and flashing...
in other words...You will need a computer and for a safety feature in case you soft brick or hard... you will have a need for a pc...computer.
do you have CWM on your device? like ranger stated below...no need to root to flash...
just my suggestions
You don't need root to flash an ics Rom.

yes sir you are correct...I did notice the op did not mention if CWM is on his device already...he will need that to flash...so then to put cwm he would need.....
No I don't have CWM on my device its literally a few hours old with everything stock lol so I'm really trying to find the best way to go about getting CMW and a custom ROM installed

Honestly I would not attempt to flash without a pc handy...due to the saying
"ya never know"
Even though we have the same make/model devices....they are not the same... my GNote may not like a ROM as to yours might...like I trying explaining ... the computer being your safety net if something goes wrong....I would wait or find a friend that you can use a computer, but it is your call, it is your investment.
btw unless someone knows a way to put CWM on the device without a computer....I believe you will need a computer...
Since CWM is a custom kernel, you could flash it from the phone using the Mobile Odin app.
Edit: oops never mind -- you need to be rooted to use Mobile Odin. Sorry for the bad information.
I rooted one phone using the terminal emulator after downloading such and busy box to the SD card. But its harder than climbing Everest without oxygen typing those commands.

So I Bought a Galaxy note (i717) the charger port is messed up on the device. It will charge, but it wont allow any PC connectivity. I have searched google and xda for information how how to root this phone with out a PC (aka using an .apk like framaroot) and I can not find a viable solution. I have tried Z4Root and Framaroot and neither of them work. Do you know of any other ways to root my device with out a pc? If i dont need a Root to Flash Could you point me in the right direction to find that information I haven't put CWM on the device yet because I Cant Root so I cant MobileOdin ect.. you see the picture lol. Is it possible to use an Update.zip file? or use a formatted SDcard to flash it like I did to Flash NookColor1?
I guess we need to help one another, I saw ur post, and I am using the same device. Dude, u can root every android in this world without pc. There are so many rooting apks.

How do I uninstall the JB ROM completely?
Edit: Whenever I connect my phone to my computer, it won't show up and I can't add anything to my internal SD.
Edit 2: I got it. I appreciate the help anyways.
Should be very similar as how you flashed the rom you currently have. Not to be a smartass but the op also posted instructions on how to flash. You just need to download the rom and the current gapps for jb and flash using twrp or cmw. Great rom too. For me not quite ready for a daily driver but really good.

I did do exactly what he said to do. I used GooManager. It still didn't work.

Don't use goo manager to flash. Flash manually in recovery

I agree, don't use goo flash with CWM or TWRP and just flash what ever ROM you want to go back to.

Just download the ROM and gaaps you want put on your SD card(internal SD is fine) whipe data, cache ect. Use twrp to install. I prefer twrp because you can install everything in one shot. Hope you figure it out.

People shouldn't be flashing anything if they're asking how to uninstall a ROM...
If you have no knowledge then why risk it??
Read read read read read
And idk how much I can emphasize this but READ
This isn't a help hotline or a help website with walk thrus.. there is YouTube for that..
The OP of every ROM or port or hack or mod has detailed instructions on how to flash a ROM and the requirements.
If you can't figure it out by reading and having a some what knowledge of what's going on....stay away from flashing..
That's how we get all the "I bricked my phone help" threads...
Not being a d*ck but all this can be solved by simply reading

If u don't read it in the development part of the forum don't do it. You will brick your device and nobody will care. Just read the forum and u will know what u can and can't do, simple as that. READ!

I was on CleanRom ACE 5.0 I think. Then I deleted my EFS data from within the service menu. Then I couldn't get a cell signal.
Today I flashed back to a stock I605VRAMC3 using ODIN. That didn't fix it.
Can you please point me in the right direction on how to fix this?
I've read the forum for about 3 hours and can't find the answer.
Thanks.

No, I have twrp installed on my phone, but didn't make a backup on this phone.
I don't think I have any saved backups from older phones either.
Is there a file I can copy to my phone or ADB commands to make it work?
I've seen a few posts where people ask for the EFS files, maybe there are three of them?
I don't know what the result of those requests were.
I can email you mine. Not sure of that will help. Send me a pm with your email. I'm at work now so I will send when I get home.

Thanks! I had replaced my Note 2 in December using my assurian insurance with $100 deductible. So I called them today and told 'DonTrey' what happened. He said they'd send me a new phone for free so I didn't argue.
It should get here tomorrow. Are there any issues flashing to the latest ROMs? Which one would you recommend?
Depends on what firmware is installed when you get it. If it's completely locked down then safestrap will give you root but no custom roms as of yet. I prefer meanbean but that's just my opinion. I run meanbean reborn v0.9 It's so smooth and battery life is the best. But again just my 2 cents.
Just found this for future reference

OK thanks Macasus, I might try that meanbean. Is it a 4.4 or 4.3 Touchwiz based ROM? I saw some ROMs that included some stuff from the Note 3. I might try some of them out.
I'll do some reading and find out how to tell if my new phone is completely locked down. That would suck. I'm hoping it will arrive today.
I have a week of vacation, and of course I have to deal with my phone for half of it. I'm almost ready to jump ship and get an iPhone. j/k
Izord that's not even funny lol! Glad I can help and the folks here will be just as helpful along the way I'm sure. Enjoy!
