Bought the Samsung Galaxy Note® II (Verizon), 16GB Developer Edition.
Wanted to keep my unlimited data plan.
It is already unlocked, what is the best way to root it.
Model number: SCHI605
Android version: 4.1.2
Baseband version: 1605VRAMA4
Hardware version: I605.06
Thank you.
I don't know of a standalone root app. In the past there was the exynos cpu exploit app but that was for an older Verizon rom. Of course you could flash a rooted stock ROM like beanstown106's either odex and deodex rooted stock ROMs. Or you could flash a custom rom with root.
The good thing about beanstown106's roms are that they don't affect the bootloader. They won't lock it some other stock rooted roms will.

You can use the toolkit.

I was considering using the Toolkit, but it supports up to build AMC3. My build number is: JZO54K.I605YAMA5.

You could try it and see, other than that the only thing is the exynos exploit.

Would I be able to return it to its original state, if there is a problem?

If you have the original firmware I would say yes, there is even a possibility that you could use the alternative or root66 firmware, Roms, to get back to stock.
The S3 Dev edition had no problem getting back to stock using our Roms or even using any of our Roms and radios even though it's stock firmware was different. Im oretty sure the only thing that'd happen though is it would say process failed, it shouldn't mess your phone up.

This purchase may have been a mistake. what good is an unlocked bootloader, if there is no way to root without flashing?
I am contemplating returning it and taking the restocking fee hit.

Why would you?
On the S2 or the Note samsung added a new bootloader wich was hard to hack and thus rooting became difficult. By flashing the old bootloader rooting was possible again. This isn`t the case here.

I want to update because I want to stay up to date to get the more of my phones. I have two i9300 and the outdated one, always is the loser in all things, also presents a laggy UI
The bootloader has absolutey nothing to do with any of your problems.

Seriously though why do you want to update your bootloader?
Are they the same model, firmware, kernel? If so factory reset them both and test both devices..
What makes you think it's the bootloader anyway, do you know what it does?
My solution at this moment was to update to I9300XXELLA, it includes a Bootloader update
Yes I know there have been threads on this but all deal with custom roms.
I have the stock rom, rooted and unlocked bootloader, with TWRP recovery. What do I need to do to get the OTA update, OR is the update available anywhere that I can just flash it through TWRP.
I am assuming I will need to flash the stock recovery back (Which I don't have), and possibly lock the bootloader. Does locking it clear the phone like unlocking it does?
Is the AT&T OTA update 4.2.2 or just some tweaks? Anyone know the benefits?

You need to be completely bone stock to get any sort of OTA updates. And the update you're talking about depends on what you're running now.

Ok so basically change to stock recovery, unroot, lock the bootloader. Will the lock clear my phone like unlocking it?
Currently I have 4.1.2

What is the lastest FW for htc one At&t?
I am sick of waiting att to release 4.2.2. The only solution I read now is to convert att rom to developer edition, which requires s-off and supercid. However, I have no intention to keep the device bootlocker unlocked. And I heard current s-off and s-on methods no longer work with 4.2.2.
So would it work if I convert the rom to developer edition, then s-on and relock the device, and at last upgrade to 4.2.2?
I'm running 1.26.502.12
I believe this is the latest.
Sent from my HTC One using xda premium
Why are you guys waiting to upgrade to 4.2.2 if you are unlocked and rooted? Just install a custom ROM that is built from 4.2.2 basebuild?
I've been running 4.2.2 on my at&t htc1 since day one of owning the phone.

That is a viable option if you're already rooted. I ran AT&T stock rooted 1.26.502.12 for a while myself. But I've used both Scott's Clean Rom (Based off of stock AT&T/ HTC 4.1.2) and I'm using Android Revolution HD 12.1 today (HTC 4.2.2). Once you're rooted, there's those and plenty of other variations on HTC's Sense 5 interface with either 4.1.2 or 4.2.2 out there so there's not really allot of reasons to stay bone stock. Any updates (or the useful parts of them, at least) will be picked out and used by the Devs we have working on the One so I wouldn't bother waiting on OTAs. Just keep a nandroid of your stock setup in case you need to revert back for warranty purposes.
Good luck with att. They genuinely suck. I flashed to viperrom and supercid and flashed firmware my self. Not going to wait till Christmas for a damn update from them while they figure out how to update their terrible apps like att drive.

It is very doubtful unless they find an exploit that wasn't in the MK2 bootloader.
You can flash back to 4.3 after you flash this leak. It doesn't trip the qfuse. But once the official release is out that might change but yeah people on VZW should not flash this.

This might be good news. If the kernel changed for 4.4 and you can flash back devs might find a work around.

My mom got my note 2 when I upgraded my phone so I haven't been keeping up with the updates that have came since I last had it. The bootloader is LJB with twrp 2.5.0.0 running clean rom 3.5 (MC3). wanna know what's the best way to get it up to date and keep root? Can't remember if the bootloader was fully unlocked or not on LJB so if someone can refresh my memory on that. I gotta be able to save her app data and restore it as well. Thanks in advance!

Well if you are on CleanRomMC3 then your bootloader is unlocked:good:
To get you up to date, which is MJ9 4.3, you need to first flash this:
Firmware Package
Then you can flash any 4.3 ROM.. If you are using that firmware package and want something like CleanRom, which is pretty much stock then use this thread.. Make sure to thank him bc he did provide the firmware as well...
Stock Deodex/Odex 4.3 MJ9

I have the Metropcs branded version of this, I updated it to the newest metro, and t mobile to test it out, I tried to go back to the baseband I started with, which was 4.4.2 and it would not, odin said it passed but it just started freezing at the samsung logo, I odin back to ob1 and it went right to it no problem.
