Maybe i'm just having issues finding anything, but I cant seem to find any sort of guide or video on how to root a VERIZON galaxy note 2 on a mac. Anyone know of such a step by step guide? The windows versions are pretty much all i can find. Thanks

So, I'm attempting to help my girlfriend root her tablet from multiple hundreds of miles away, and its not easy, let me tell you. Basically, she has no access to a computer in order to complete the process, and of course she's on the latest firmware... so I'm here hoping someone is capable of creating an app that can do it for her. I see there was one in the past, but its obviously no longer working. If someone could do such a thing now... it would help me out so much, I'd be willing to pay. Thanks, guys.

Nobody because it's not possible for now.
The guy who made the sparky root method said in that thread that he'd port the newest root method to an apk format when he got a chance. Therefore, my argument is still valid.

You just give an answer to your own question.
Did you see it in the forums? No? Well then guy guy didn't ported yet
btw, unlock and custom rom ftw
Are you implying that its possible to unlock and install ROMs without rooting?

Yes. Unlock, flash a custom recovery with fastboot (but you need a computer if you aren't rooted). And from recovery flash any ROM you want.
See, the issue here is there is no USB access on her computer, so whatever is done, it has to be from the tablet itself.

Added video to OP. Android 4.3

Do you have an unroot and return to stock video. I'm about to sell this phone and need to return it to stock.

Use droidstyle's guide. Section 1b has odin to stock. Use the vramc3 file and it will be on the latest ota and relocked.

Yeah it should. If it isn't then it's a driver problem. Most likely

After going through the unlock process on the Verizon Note 2, would I be able to then use a MetroPCS sim card in it? I went through the entire process in Casual, it said I was unlocked, but when i popped my metro sim, it wouldn't recognize it.
I'm guessing I either messed up somewhere, or it isn't capable of doing it.
Can anyone shed some light?

It never had Photoshop to my knowledge. I believe that Last years Note 10.1 came with it but this one does not.

I tried a couple other things like s note and the old browser. Can't get them to install. Need to be rooted to actually remove and replace the stock apps

You also have to copy the relevant libraries and this can be a problem because the old note is still Android 4.1.1 or not?
To find the relevant libraries you can also look in the logcat.
I have the verizon Samsung Note 2, and would love to root it so i can get 4.3. However i dont have a pc besides a chromebook and a linux computer running mint the newiest one which ever that is. How can i root my phone using either of these computers??
