You can't install twrp or cwm on me7 because bootloader is still locked. Can almost call it a soft root if you want.
If you managed to brick your phone.
Please follow the instructions to restore your phone to stock.

did you use Adam's method or the toolkit?
adams method

What I think is your bootloader isn't successfully unlocked, and you're bricked. You need to odin flash back to original and use mskip's tool kit...it's quickest and easiest way to root, unlock, and flash custom recovery.

But with a Verizon note 2, dont you have to unlock with adams method first?
from mskips thread
NOTE: You will need to unlock the bootloader using instructions/files from Adam Outler before using the Toolkit. His instructions are very good and he has stated he does not want redistribution of anything. There is more information in the Toolkit after you select your model.

sorry. I guess you're right. It doesn't. I apologize. well....if the toolkit doesn't have option to unlock the device, then it's pretty much useless......
ok then, why does it say that in his thread then?

Hello I currently tried to install a twrp via the free app on my nephews GS4 he is dying for a custom rom. It worked but when reboot into recovery the phone goes right to download screen with boot error at top left. When I connected to my pc via usb the Verizon software did a auto repair on the phone . So this restored the phone to its original state. So my questions is is the phone now have a locked boot loader or something Loki I think its called. Is there a step by step procedure to reroot , cwm or twrp and rom it ? I been searching but I cant find a post that would cover all of this for VZW GS4. Any help would be much appreciated Thank you.

Sir First of All check ur phone bootloader which can be located in about device in settings. If u have a mdk bootloader u can use loki to install cwm/twrp and install full aosp roms. if this is not ur situation ur bootlaoder isnt mdk so u have to install safestrap to install some custom roms. This might help u..

use towel root to root it and then use odin to flash the recovery. go from there with what you wanna install as concerning custom roms and stuff.
It will root S4's with the firmware (NC5).

What recovery is he going to flash in odin on the nc5 bootloader?
That what I was thinking. Wouldn't he just have to install safestrap from the phone itself?

Hello guys!
I just wanted to ask if it is possible to update Galaxy Note SHV-E160S 32GB Internal from JB 4.1.2 MJ1 to JB 4.1.2 MH2? The phone's build # is E160SKSJMJ1. I want to root the phone using Tegrak's but I cannot seem to find any build that is compatible with MJ1. I hope someone can help me here.
Thanks!
That would actually be downgrading. Shouldn't be a problem through in that case. Since it's the same Android version and the bootloader isn't locked, there shouldn't be a problem. Not sure why you wouldn't try the method I suggested on your other post, but whatever works for you.

Hi es0tericcha0s, since I'm a noob to this rooting process I'm still confused if TWRP can be used to root the phone. If it can, I shouldn't be needing to downgrade the FW and just use TWRP to root it?
http://download.chainfire.eu/supersu Download that on your phone, boot to TWRP, install zip, reboot, win.

Thanks es0tericcha0s! Just to be clear on the steps.
I'll flash TWRP on my phone then boot it?
Then put UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.46.zip on my phone's root folder
Then install it using TWRP?
Yep yep.

Done! Thanks es0tericcha0s. I really appreciate your help. :good::good:
You're welcome. Glad you finally got it. One more piece of advice : boot back to TWRP and make a nandroid backup. This will get you out of most trouble in case you do something you shouldn't with root.

Alright. Anyway, what do you suggest or recommend to back up instead of backing up all the folders
Boot
System
Data
Efs (if it has that option)
I did some searches and came up short. I have my bootloader unlock code. Can somebody link me to a root guide for the latest stock rom please? I don't want to install a custom rom. Just install root.

So just to clarify, all I have to do is fastboot to twrp? I don't need to install it? It's confusing. "Boot to recovery and had TWRP"?? Never rooted a phone before. If somebody could go into greater detail, that would be great.
To get root and TWRP.
Credit to Foltz61.
1. Boot to bootloader.
2. Fastboot boot TWRP-L.img
3. Install supersu-2.49.zip (even though I didn't lose root)
4. Reboot back to system.
5. Reboot back to bootloader.
6. fastboot flash recovery TWRP-L.img.
7. fastboot reboot.
8. Boot to recovery and had TWRP

I'm pretty sure that video only applies to the Jellybean stock from for the HAM2. Am I wrong? I'm on the Lollipop rom.

You were eventually able to install twrp though right? Seems pretty straight forward and easy. Unlock bootloader, setup adb on comp, enable adb on phone, boot into twrp, flash custom recovery.

Nope. I missed that the unlock part was necessary! Thank you for giving the details though!!!!
When I figured that Device Only mode gives decent GPS use for maps, directions, and Pokémon Go I just decided to leave it be. Plus all this concern with root and Pokémon Go not working. I don't play much but I keep my phone as backup when my son's battery dies.
Thanks again!

Can you tell me how to unlock my bootloader
I downgraded to run kingroot, installed twrp, and then CM11
Worked fine, but I wasnt happy with some of the issues that CM11 has currently so I flashed 5.3.1.0 from twrp and its working fine but I dont have root (not that big a deal) and I cant get to recovery mode, not by doing adb reboot recover or by holding the volume button at poweron. Any idea where to start?

Not having root is a great deal, cause with root you could have used a certain tutorial got get TWRP back and flash whatever. I'm in a similar situation, no root too, and can't figure out what to do

Yes if I had root I could fix it, I just meant in the end I don't need the device to be rooted, just want some kind of recovery just in case
well

Still stuck with no recovery
