I'm really hoping there's more info soon, I got mine for free too. The weird thing is that even the people at Verizon didn't have a lot of info on their own device. Anyone know if it has NFC? There are many sources both ways.
Got mine for free as well, but seems very slow.. I know it only has 1gb Ram but I figured with a quad core it could at least run streampix and Netflix without constant stuttering.. Hoping for some root methods and custom rooms to get some better performance out of it soon! Please and thank you!
Gotta love those black Friday deals! I too can't wait to see some root goodness!

So does SRS Root.exe using smartroot option....
I used framaroot and installed SuperSU and Boromir exploit to gain root access to my ellipsis.
Kingo worked well to root, and get SuperSU(Thanks to chainfire for this amazing free piece of software we all take for granted!) Can we get any developers interested in getting us recovery? Maybe get an official thread for this device? Here is all the information on the device http://pdadb.net/index.php?m=specs&id=5276&c=verizon_ellipsis_7_quanta_qmv7a
Hopefully we will be installing custom roms and kernels soon. Build prop tweaks would be amazing for this device, plus a real kernel!

Think we are out of luck.. Man just a nice debloated deodexed 4.4 rom would be nice. But we need bootloader.. Custom recovery... Please someone... This generic company has probably made no effort to lock the bootloader!

It would be nice to have a custom rom on this. A 4.4 rom with the ability to move apps to the sd card to solve space issues would be so nice.

I don't suppose using Recovery Tools from the Play Store would let you install a custom recovery would it? I'm doubtful since the E7 doesn't have a native recovery mode to begin with...

I'm the proud owner of a Galaxy Note i717 but the limitations of gingerbread are driving me crazy....so the first thing I want to do is root and flash a different ROM problem is I'm without a computer ugh.
I came across a YouTube video showing how to root the other model without using a computer so I was wondering if anyone knew of a solution for the i717 model.
So is it possible to root the i717 galaxy note without a computer?
Help me out here guys any feedback is much appreciated....

I highly discourage trying anything other than what is posted in these threads...since it has been proven to best and most effective why of rooting and flashing...
in other words...You will need a computer and for a safety feature in case you soft brick or hard... you will have a need for a pc...computer.
do you have CWM on your device? like ranger stated below...no need to root to flash...

Honestly I would not attempt to flash without a pc handy...due to the saying
"ya never know"
Even though we have the same make/model devices....they are not the same... my GNote may not like a ROM as to yours might...like I trying explaining ... the computer being your safety net if something goes wrong....I would wait or find a friend that you can use a computer, but it is your call, it is your investment.
btw unless someone knows a way to put CWM on the device without a computer....I believe you will need a computer...
Since CWM is a custom kernel, you could flash it from the phone using the Mobile Odin app.
Edit: oops never mind -- you need to be rooted to use Mobile Odin. Sorry for the bad information.
I rooted one phone using the terminal emulator after downloading such and busy box to the SD card. But its harder than climbing Everest without oxygen typing those commands.

So I Bought a Galaxy note (i717) the charger port is messed up on the device. It will charge, but it wont allow any PC connectivity. I have searched google and xda for information how how to root this phone with out a PC (aka using an .apk like framaroot) and I can not find a viable solution. I have tried Z4Root and Framaroot and neither of them work. Do you know of any other ways to root my device with out a pc? If i dont need a Root to Flash Could you point me in the right direction to find that information I haven't put CWM on the device yet because I Cant Root so I cant MobileOdin ect.. you see the picture lol. Is it possible to use an Update.zip file? or use a formatted SDcard to flash it like I did to Flash NookColor1?
I guess we need to help one another, I saw ur post, and I am using the same device. Dude, u can root every android in this world without pc. There are so many rooting apks.

I was informed today that Verizon is pushing out the new Ota already. If you haven't gotten it you will soon. 2 questions....
1. Do we have to Odin back to stock to receive the update?
2. Will there have to be a new process to root after we accept the ota?
Should this have gone under the Q and A?

I think this has already been discussed. The nee ota is nothing more than the search feature dumbing down and a new baseband+kernel. I believe you can root this with the current method. Correct me if I'm wrong though.
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app
Why mess up your root? Just give it some time and the devs will probably have the update rooted and ready to flash with Odin !
Can anybody confirm that these will not auto-install?
On my HTC Incredible, I would just hit install later, but the popup would come back every 15 minutes.. very annoying!
Soon as the update comes out I will have a fully deodexed rooted zipaligned version available.
If I can figuire it out, I will also make an Odin image out of it.

I don't remember where I read this but you have to freeze FWUpdate.
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda premium
It's been pretty well established how to restore proper search functionality. The real question should be what do the kernel and radios do? Any improvements in reception or battery life? Any improvements in device performance? And most importantly, does this change anything regarding bootloader unlocking research and work-arounds?

FYI guys, we can still root using the same method after the OTA (VRALG1)
:Welcome to Stock:
Keep in mind this is a WIP, thread and files will be updated, so subscribe to thread to stay up to date.
This Rom is Intended for those with the LG-L9, T-mobile or Wind P769 variant or the LGMS769 variant for MetroPCS, My full support being on the T-Mobile Variant
As im sure we all know, not everyone can unlock their bootloader. :bummer:
For those of us who can't, we are limited with what we can unleash out of even a low end device.
A tweaked Nandroid can work wonders over stock of course
Current Features:
[*]Added Apps (Apollo, ES File Explorer File Manager, Google Keyboard, Nova Launcher)
[*]Deodexed
[*]Debloated(Mostly)
[*]Full Init.d Support (Kudos to Kuma82)
MORE TO COME!
Precautions:
You must be rooted and have cwm installed for this to be of any use to you.
Restore at your own risk, i am of no responsibility for any damages brought to your phone(see it every post, thought id add it)
Install Instructions:
[*]Boot into CWM and make a full Nandroid (for both restoring data or reverting back)
[*]Download the ZIP file (Link Provided Below)
[*]Extract the ZIP on pc and copy it to your clockworkmod folder (ie: /sdcard/external_sd/clockworkmod/backup/2013-10-10.09.27.56)
[*]Disconnect phone, Reboot phone in CWM. Wipe Data/factory reset, Cache partition and Dalvik Cache.
[*]Select Backup and Restore, Restore Backup and done.
[*]*optional* advanced restore data

So basically you do what every member on this forum only wishes they could do . G2 is SWEET though, I dont see myself getting another samsung for a while. I was hoping for the S5 but that let me down.
Anyways back to topic, I haven't made the jump to KK yet (mainly because I'm working 11 days in a row) but if they can work out a recovery for it I will be very happy
Stock recoveries will be allowed through the 4.4.2 bootloader check. Custom recoveries are not allowed because they pass through the aboot and if they are not 100% stock you are dropped into fastboot. Sorry man, this idea won't work.

I was also able to get into that recovery while messing with something. It was one time though. In read in Gibhub of Loki that LG has patched for Loki exploit but he used the previous aboot but that was just for an OTA. https://github.com/djrbliss/loki/issues/44
This a great News Im looking for your custom recavary
Thanks for Hard work:good:

What about root? I really don't care about custom recovery but isn't there no way to root?

Well lot of us do
I am not an Android Dev but how much work would it be to just create a g2 framework package that would overlay on a source aosp rom? Lg ui isn't some mystical New rom is just an overlay. Very involved but I see other people exporting the Sony ui to other roms. It might be easier than trying to find an exploit that might not exist

Not another "when will we get root" thread........
You will get it, when you get it.
But then, you may never get it.........
Why do people take the OTA then wonder about root.
If it's that important, be patient.......
I agree. What's the rush to update only to be stuck? We live in an instant gratification society anymore. Wait to update. There is nothing of significance in the update that you need it right away.
Verizon is really trying to clamp down on tethering. Foxfire is broke in the update... The most Verizon app requests root privileges to track tethering on unlimited plans. Stay away from updates until those in the know give you the go ahead.

right so why wait? Why not Downgrade to MK2 then flash any system img capable of MK2 install safestrap then re-upgrade the right way? Look under the development section we have a 20+ page spread on how to do it properly. This will give you root and access to a butt load of new 4.4.2 ROMs. It will also give you root you'll just have to deal with this method for time being i doubt it will change anytime soon. It works fine if you havent upgraded yet put on the breaks and do not upgrade your bootloaders. All you really need to upgrade is your AP and CP with hlos. Then switching between 4.4 and 4.3 is cake. Right now I've got 4.4.2 Custom ROM on my stock slot and a 4.3 gDux 1.1 on 1st slot and an AOSP ROM on my 2nd slot. Ive got a variety literally goes 4.4.2 to 4.3 to 4.2.2 AOSP and I couldnt be happier in terms of what I can throw on an use with my phone.
Actually Firefox just updated and now works on 4.4.2
