Mobile Odin back to stock - Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II

Can you use mobile Odin to go back to stock? I did it this way in my gs3 just curious if you could on note 2.
Thanks!

Did you even look in the mobile Odin thread? It says right in the op our device is supported if you have an unlocked boot loader.

Yes I did and thanks. I know it is supported but wondering if anyone has tried it.

If I had to guess I would say it wouldn't work for going back to stock or if it does you may have issues. May work for the alternate restore but not sure.

Flashing a rom with mobile odin isnt the most advisable thing to do. Just an FYI

Trips your flash counter! Also a higher risk of bricks if the ROM builder goofed up.

Understand that. But is stock rom, ie back to factory then won trip counter and no chance of bricks right? Or am I thinking wrong?
Thanks!

Long as it is a completely stock image it won't. I don't think the route 66 version does either
Won't brick your device long as it is a .tar.md5 file or you make sure MD5 matches. Should be a tar.md5 file though.

[Q] Forcing app onto phone without root?

Im needing to force an app onto this phone without rooting it is there anyway to do it at all?
First time post and I searched over and over couldn't find a similar thread or a site to help
What do you mean forcing it onto the phone?
Sent from my SGH-I777 using Tapatalk 2 Beta-5
It wont install on there at all and I found ways of forcing apps onto a phone through /system/apps but you have to be rooted to do it and its not my phone I'm needing to do this on so cant root it
It depends on the app

Maybe not, but there's a chance. He'll have to manually install it as a system app though...
Even if he doesn't get it to work, he can always just extract the wallpapers from the apk.
I'll write your next thread title for you.

Jedi rom on Verizon?

Just wanted to know if anyone has run any of the jedi roms on the Verizon note2? If so how did it run? I have a friend that has it on his at&t note 2 and he loves it and has reccomended it to me.

Yeah I have been reading all the post about that and it seems hit or miss with different roms. I was just curious if anyone has done it already and how it worked for them.

Once again I read it and watched the video but a few minutes on video hardly tells me it works fine. I have a friend who used that method to install a tmobile rom and it works okay but has a lot of fc. Just wanted to hear from few people who have tried it and there results not just one person.

The 2.06 update pops up every time I unlock my phone. I'm walking to the store, I look at my phone and behold its installing the 2.06 update on its own. Well played Verizon. The thought of selling this phone never crossed my mind, but since 2.04 root is priority over 2.06 I'm highly considering it.

It would probably be better to wait until a 2.04 method is released just incase it works with 2.06

It's not about how good stock is or isn't. It's about being able to do what you want.
Go try and use teamviewer or a vnc server. Need root.
How about Wi-Fi tether that doesn't require a screen password. Need root
Titanium backup? Nope... root.
Game cheat engine's... root
So while the stock interface is fine, no unrooted phone can do the above without it.

To root or wait for a Knox fix?

I've been waiting to root cause of problems I saw from other people and cause twrp wasn't stable but know I see twrp is. But didn't know if they were working on a fix to get around knox?

If you can wait, wait... if not and you want to avoid the KNOX binary trigger, use Root de la Vega. @mjcollum posted a thread about it in our Sprint Note 3 forum, here.
Personally, I could care less about KNOX security so I used CF-AutoRoot and jumped into all the fun that can be had.

knox knox...who's there...FREEEEE TETHER!!!!!! thats why i rooted!
Yea I pretty much went the keep it as stock as possible route and went the vega route just to keep my options open in the future. At this point pretty much just running a stock system with vega root. Xposed modules.wifi mod. And massively debloated. Seems ideal for me at this time. That way I can still go either way as development progresses . Return to complete stock. Or go all out with roms.

Just rooted yesterday with the vega root, and you can still have wifi tethering with stock, and no knox trip either! Im still getting anxious to start flashing lol!

That's how I feel.. This is the first phone I didn't root the second it was available. . I would rather not trip Knox not cause of warrantee but for the unknown of what effect that might have down the road. Will this self destruct in a month .. Who knows. . Have read horror stories of what manufactures can do with this stuff. . Don't feel like destroying my baby.. I want to start working on my own rom so so so so bad. . It is killing me. .

Flash 4.1.2 Ruu

My girlfriend has the Verizon S4 4.3..
However she hates it and wants to go back to 4.1.2 or 4.2.... Can I just flash the Ruu file in Odin to go back without any problems?
Thanks for any help!

The tar file for Odin cannot be used to downgrade due to bootloader. Much like the ruu on most HTC phones won't allow a downgrade due to locks in the bootloader.

Yep....your only option would be safestrap and a few roms compatible to run with it.
safestrap enabled, Hyperdrive driven
Or root and clean it up. I did even though I hate stock. TW and Sense are both horrible. VZW and carriers make it worse with the bloat. Root, delay and freeze. I even deleted VZW apk files so I didn't have to worry about them running. I'm on straight talk though, so I wouldn't need them anyway.

Yeah, thanks. She's not very tech savvy and prefers the old look. Smh at locked bootloaders
