There's one available right around here, use the search button dude, it's pretty easy if you search the most obvious place for anything pertaining to this device.
Well, like I said in op, I've searched and found ones that say must be s on or relock. Also found the ones to do from fastboot .
Like I said, don't find stock rooted that I can flash through recovery. As stated in op already have done what above post says.
Sorry ii asked such an easy question. That a simple search didn't answer.

I created and posted the flashable zip myself, that tells me you're not looking, I know it exist and it's in the MOST OBVIOUS place everrrrrrrr.
Hint: Where can everything about the Amaze 4G be found?
I'm sorry I don't find the one you posted. Thanks for trying to help though.

Being unable to find something and not looking are not the same, there is a flashable zip of T-Mobile, Telus and Mobilicity ICS roms posted in the amaze bibe thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1679486
The tutorial to return to stock is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=27058110&postcount=44
At the bottom of that post you will find all three flashable zips with links to download them.
If you search for what you're looking for in the places that it should be, you will find it.
Thankyou. I'm sorry you feel I didn't look. But like I said in every post, I did search. Never came across the nandroids or zips you posted.

That's why you always search the bible first buddy, I know things like this are hard to find around here so we try to gather it all for you guys in place so it wouldn't be hard to find anymore, so just check the bible thread first, if you don't find it in there, let me know and I'll show where it's at, if we don't have it? I'll personally try to get it for ya. .

Also, if you're still looking for an universal updater that will flash a stock ICS rooted ROM with 4EXT recovery, you might want to wait for my tool to be released
I said nothing.
Maybe I did something wrong, but the ota zip WiFi would not work and with the posted nandroid it aborted within. Few seconds

After you flash the ota zip you will need to flash the boot.img file inside it manually if you're not s-off, use hasoons tool to flash it, its the kernel required for wifi to work.
Just remembered you use cwm recovery, you have to flash the kernel file manually since only 4ext recovery supports kernel flashing.

Yes, i am s-off. I was on energy rom. Flashed the stock rooted zip from link you posted above. I wiped everything before flash. Wifi shows networks shows trying to connect but keeps going through that. Will NEVER connect. I tried the process form post 4 in energy rom and still wont connect. If i restore the back up of energy, wifi works
Ok, just did the manual flash and still no wifi. I see i mis typed above, the OTA zip works, everything except wifi
You're the first and only person that used that zip and complained of that issue, my only piece of advice for you would be to use the PH85IMG stock img in the stock ruu thread and restore, then re-root your device, best of luck.

In the first post there is a link to Brief Mobile's Beginner's Guide. It is very similar to what you used but apparently the .sbf is different.
Once you have an unlocked bootlader you can take care of both the rooting and the webtop over HDMI hack with a custom ROM. I'm using Alien Build #4 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1186537) and is working great. Some people report problems with the Alien theme, but you can use the ROM without the theme and still get the root and webtop hack along with some other goodies.
You will first need to install CWM. You can use this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1204500
Then just boot into recovery and install the Alien zip.
Any problems you have are probably already solved in the Alien thread.

Read through the PUDDING (the first one I suggested) and the Alien ROM threads.. They're long but you'll probably find a solution there..
Also post what you're doing step by step and exactly when are you getting which error. You must be missing some step or doing something wrong because the whole process should be really easy, specially with an AT&T phone.
Hopefully I posted this in the right forum, If not please move it!
Ok, So I updated my phone via Kies and got the official ICS update (Finally) for my AT&T Galaxy Note, Problem is, as expected... it unrooted my phone and I'd like it rooted again, I want to keep the new official stock ICS rom and just want it rooted again to delete all that garbage bloatware to keep my phone sharp, any help?
Do i just re-root it doing it the same way I did before?
Will it ruin my new ICS rom?
Can anyone link me to the files that will root my phone but keep the ICS Stock Rom?
I didnt have a single problem Rooting it the first time on ginerbread, but Im not sure what will happen with a different official rom installed. Just dont wanna have to reinstall ICS again or something, when I just spent about an hour setting it back to how I had everything, then remembered updating unrooted me.
Any advice or help is really appreciated!
Thanks!
Not really in right section more like a Q&A section.
However the devs need a little time to sort through all the code but these guys are smart and root will come soon and they will proudly announce it. Just enjoy for now.

Yes.
Now look one post above your last one.
To see the links Mr. Joe is referencing you need to be on a pc.
To install CWM you need to be on a pc.
To root you need a pc.
Mr.Joe would only post trusted links.

I successfully updated my Note to ICS yesterday and want to root it again as well. I looked through the Note section in BigJoe's thread, but can't figure out exactly what files I need. I rooted it with Gingerbread without issue. I've looked through the unlocking/rooting section and the one thread that explains how to root specifically says that the method will NOT work with the official ICS update.
Sorry to sound so dense, but could someone link exactly which files I/we need to root the official ICS via Odin?

Can anyone put into layman's terms the initial process of rooting a phone? I have the OTA and there's no root method, so I'd like to manually root via TWRP. Is busy box mandatory for root? If not, should I get it or pass on it? Where do I get the package to flash? Then for supersu....where do I get the binaries/zip package for that?
I want to ruu back to actual stock and then manually root, but the only thing I cab find is the root scripts, which don't work. I'm having issues with the 1.22 rooted Rom which I believe stem from stripping out firmware and or hboot and stuff. Since I'm already updated is prefer to work from the actual stock build.
This could be a great starting point for those with phone that are already updated... Anyone care to help?

well chill for one second xD you dont need and cant use any of that mess if you dont have root
what you did is whats preventing you from rooting, which was updating to 1.22, as far as i understand, the current methods dont work for getting you root, sooo, maybe im wrong but i believe theres a trick where u can RUU back to the old 1.33 or whatever, but look in the original development thread
Of course its still possible. Why couldn't I ruu (to 1.22)...run HTC unlock...flash twrp...flash supersu...flash busybox? Boom, I'm rooted on a stock build. I know the current scripts can't do it, bit I can definitely do it manually if I have all the right resources....or if I knew what I was doing... Right??

I have been searching.....I've spent HOURS and HOURS on this forum the past few days. I guess I'm just looking for confirmation that what I want to do is in fact the right thing to do... Everyone is so set on all the root scripts, but noone says what that process actually is. And that's what I want. I want the process so I can start contributing without just taking everyone else's work. I think there's a ton of people in my same situation (htc unlocked, s-on, accepted the OTA) that wants a simple way to get back root without reflashing entire roms. So I guess my three big questions are...
1.) I understand that root requires an app (superuser or supersu) as well as the binaries. I have no idea where these binaries are. Where would I get the supersu ones? Is it flashable? Where do the "binaries" actually go?
2.) Busybox...do you have to be rooted to install it? It seems like you do if this is really a set of tools not included in stock android. Maybe I'm wrong though. And more importantly....where do you get it. I'll be honest, I haven't searched around on this issue yet, so maybe the answers already out there... I just wanted to ask in case someone felt like layin down some knowledge.
3.) The flashable zip. I guess I could unzip one and see what's inside, but I'm sure someone on here can explain so it makes more sense than I'd gather by just unzipping and looking around. Like for instance, so flashable zips are entire roms...some are just radios...some are simple tweaks. This leads me to believe there's a script inside defining what to actually do. Let's say I wanted to create my own flashable zip which included TWRP, the root binaries and supersu, as well as busybox. Do I create a perl script called your_moms_a_skank and include it with all the other files? Is there a certain filename (instructions) the android operating system looks for when you flash a zip? Shoot i dunno.....I guess I'll start ripping these apart and seeing whats inside....
If you can't answer all three, that's fine. Any information is better than none... You all are awesome and I would buy you all cupcakes if I knew where you lived... Don't actually tell me where you live because the cupcakes will never come. I'll eat them long before they make it to the post office. I'm just saying....I'd consider buying you a cupcake. And it's the thought that counts...so you have to be happy about this.

That was hardly a smart response, I was stating truth, the issue you asked about that I responded to was true, if you didn't create the partition then the error is normal.
I could give you one if you'd like, like "Go Google how to use a recovery."

Hey guys. I am not from around here. You will normally find me hanging out in the Nexus forums. I need some help trying to correct an issue my noob buddy caused on his E970. He brought it to me today in a boot loop and apparently he rooted it an uninstalled some GAPPS and now he has this security error and BL. Now, so far I have managed to install the drivers..... that's it. I have worked on a variety of different devices but I am really having trouble with this. I think the issue is I can not find a thread that is comprehensive enough to explain what alot of the different tools are and what they do. I mean there is
1. LGNPST
2. Teenybin
3. Freegee or something like that
Then there about 14 different file types depending on the tool you are using. I have seen;
1. dll
2. bin
3. kdz
4. tot
I have to be honest with you guys this is confusing as hell. I keep coming across dead links and old downloads and stuff that may not work. I REALLY don't like using stuff not linked from XDA as that is all I've known for many years (not to say other sites aren't reputable but you never know) I can follow instructions and figure out most stuff on my own but due to the in completion of alot of this stuff and dead links I am kinda stuck I am gonna give it another go tomorrow but in the meantime if someone wants to drop me a link or word of advice as to where to at least start it would be awesome. I am pretty handy generally with this kind of thing but I guess that goes to show you sometimes you are only as good as the tools and directions you are working with. Thanks XDA Community! :good:
Okay the first three.
3.lgnpst is the program you will need to use to fix the security error which was caused by removing bloat without unlocking bootloader.
2.teenybin is used with lgnpst to unlock bootloader, update partitions to jb, and install recovery. It doesn't install firmware but could be used to restore if a rom was copied to sd to flash.
3.freegee is used to unlock bootloader and install recovery on a working phone.
Next four.
1.dll are files needed by windows.
2.bin is the extension the file needs to be for using lgnpst.
3.kdz is stock firmware for use with lgflashtool (used mainly for international phones)
4.tot is the extension the stock firmware is released with which will be renamed to bin before using lgnpst.
In the additional info section of teenbin thread there is a click to show content button that will have have links and guide for lgnpst. Use the tSilenzio version and it will register the DLL files on install.

Thank you. This is exactly what I needed. Someone just to say "these are what these things are and what they do". I do have to admit I don't fault my buddy too much for soft bricking this thing as of all the devices I've rooted or flashed to this seems the most confusing. And also it's very odd that if you remove BW without first unlocking the bootloader you get this error..... Why can't they all just be as easy as a Nexus? Lol.

1.lgnpst is a pain with windows 8
2.it will not work with USB 3.0
3.be sure to right click lgnpst exe and run as admin
I got my OG right after release but had already been following forum, and would hate to have to jump in now and try to figure things out.

Well its especially difficult when someone just brings you a phone and you've never even seen it booted up and you don't know all the weird quirky rules it has (like if you uninstall GAPPS without unlocking the bootloader then you get a bootloop.) lol Otherwise it seems like a solid phone. It has almost the same specs as my Nexus 4.

This link is for a flashable zip of rooted stock jb. If you used the teenybin files with lgnpst then flashed it with recovery the end result would be stock rom with unlocked bootloader, root, and custom recovery.

Real quick.... So once I've got everything back to stock and get the boot loader unlocked.. Will I then be able to modify system stuff, uninstall bloat etc and avoid that evil security error boot loop?

Yes, once you're unlocked & rooted you will be good to go. I would recommend flashing an established rom and installing the GApps that are recommended. It would be a lot more convenient and less of a hassle.
Make sure you are using TWRP, CWM was causing bugs with flashing of some roms. Hope this helps.

Awesome and once I've flashed a good rom. Would that then circumvent any future boatloads caused by modifications etc.? So in other words are those proprietary (catches) cooked out when the devs set up a rom? I would imagine so. I know most of us folks hate that kinda thing... Lol
BTW any tips on a good solid stable Jelly Bean Rom? Would want it to be pretty stable since it's not my phone... Lol

Hey thanks again everyone! Got the phone fixed. A stock AT&T 4.1.2 Rom on there and root privileges intact. Everything is good to go. I actually kinda like the phone a lot.... I really want an LG G2..... Oooh yeah... Thanks again everyone and maybe some one will find the instructions in this thread helpful.
