[Q] Problems with rooting my Galaxy Note II (model N7100) - Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II

Hi guys!
I tryed to root my Galaxy Note II (model N7100) and something went wrong. I hope you guys can help me. Sorry for my bad english already.
So, I tryed to root my phone using this guide. I do everything like it said and when it was done, my phone opened same satup what was before I started. Because I am noob with this stuff, I think something went wrong. I dont know why, but I decide to make factory reset to my phone.
Then started problems. My phone try to reboot it self but it always stop in flashing Samsung logo.
Then I tryed this guide (1b) but Odin3 stop always in "Get PIT for mapping.."
<ID:0/003> Odin v.3 engine (ID:3)..
<ID:0/003> File analysis..
<ID:0/003> SetupConnection..
<ID:0/003> Initialzation..
<ID:0/003> Set PIT file..
<ID:0/003> DO NOT TURN OFF TARGET!!
<ID:0/003> Get PIT for mapping..
Download mode in my phone says:
"ODIN MODE
PRODUCT NAME: GT-N7100
CUSTOM BINARY DOWNLOAD: Yes (4 counts)
CURRENT BINARY: Custom
SYSTEM STATUS: Custom
KNOX WARRANTY VOID: 1
RP SWREW: A2"
What I should try next? I am very grateful every help what I get!

Hi JukkaP,
You probably want to post this question in the N7100 Note 2 forum. (This is the Verizon SCH-I605 Note 2 forum... which is a different model than your device). I think you might find more help from other N7100 owners and accurate information for your specific device in that forum. Here is the link to the N7100 Note 2 forum-- http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-2/help
Also, I am not 100% certain, but I am afraid that you probably bricked your phone when you Odin flashed the Verizon SCH-I605 Firmware to your N7100. You may want to research to see if there is a way to unbrick your phone without getting it Jtagged.

Stuck at the Yellow Triangle

I did the "And then was root" guide on my newly bought SGS2
And now I get stuck at the yellow triangle.
The phone doesn´t boot.
tried to pull the battery out. and tha push it back. boot.
Still stuck at the Triangle.
what to do
edit: I received this phone 28th of june so maybe this kernel is not available for download yet?
Flash another rom with odin ???
If you get that far then you should be able to get into Download mode. Please try:
Code:
Power off
Hold down Home and VolumeDown buttons at the same time.
Whilst the above buttons are held, press and hold power.
Release all buttons when you get a message pop-up stating something about Download mode/Custom ROMs.
If this is the case, then the device can be resurrected.
What to do next:
If I were in your position, I would use Odin to reflash the whole installation back to stock using this guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075278
Download the files from here (also in the above URL)
http://www.multiupload.com/P2AHY9IJPW
it will put you back on stock everything.
I used the XXKF2 PHONEDA/CSC.
The flashing will take about ten mins., or there abouts.
After you have this back and you are relieved that it works, you can flash the Chainfire CF-Root for XXKF2 (also written as KF2) as a PDA file in Odin. This will give you a rooted stock kernel.
Forum is here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1103399
Exact file is here with root stock kernel:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=630777&d=1308560511
I hope that this helps. Please remember to read the parts about how to flash using Odin, as people seem to like ticking the wrong boxes, even when the guides are pretty specific about what one has to do.
Best of luck.
Regards.
P.S I have used XXKF2 above because it pretty recent, I have used it myself, and the battery life on KF2 is very good.
Isn´t this a kernel problem?
Agreed that it could be a kernel problem, but I don't know.
I was aiming for a complete restart from scratch solution.
Of course, he could just flash the right CF-Root for his installation, so long as he knows what kernel he had before, and that the last kernel he flashed was the correct version.
Thanks! I will try your to install ALLstock as you stated in your first post!
This is what I get when trying the stock tar.

You guys do know that i9100 ROMS are not compatible with i9100G phones, right?
If you flashed a ROM for another device on your phone, you are probably looking at a trip to the service center or a jtag.

DUDE STOP.
You said you have a GT-I9100G, right???
Though they are similar, the GT-I9100 and GT-I9100G are actually two different phones, with different hardware, and different components. The firmwares and kernels are NOT compatible.
If you flashed a kernel and/or ROM that is specifically for the GT-I9100 (and NOT for the GT-I9100G), then you have screwed the pooch on your phone, and will likely have to take it to a service center.
EDIT: You should look here: http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/2068824. It may contain help for you.
Thank alot for your help...i got that i was using all the stuff for i9001....but i got it running now...n got root also...
Kindly do tell me how can i install custom roms using recovery mode...a link would b helpfull.

Dude, you're trying to install a ROM for your GT-I9100G, quoting a thread specifically for it. You would be MUCH better off asking for help in THAT thread instead of this one.
Asking for help with your GT-I9100G in a thread that is more likely to be viewed by users of the GT-I9100 model isn't likely to get you much useful advice or guidance.
hey...how did you manage to fix your samsung GT-I9100G dude?
Im in the same problem right now...I tried using stuff which were meant for I9100 and not I9100G.
Please man...I'm really desperate. Want to fix the mobile.

Hi bro, no panic please it will be okay !!
Do you have jig ? if you have use it and try to come in Download mode
Then flash the stock and you are done
That sounds like the phone is in forced download mode. Does Odin recognise the phone when you hook it up to PC ? Obviously ensure you have Kies/drivers installed, and make sure Kies or any process related to isn't running in task manager. If Odin does recognise it, go to Sammobile & get stock firmware/flash it thru Odin.
If this doesn't work, and you can't get into download mode proper, in your own words, you're f****d. You could try a jig, but more than likely won't work (still worth a try tho).
So it's either a JTAG repair by a non-Samsung repairer (probably cheapest) Vs repair by Samsung with you paying (probably more expensive).

Before flash the ROM, please provide the phone details . Like I9100 or I9100 T or AT&T and country ..

Its because you have an I9100G version. Wrong section of the forum. If you flash the international version again, you will end up with the same problem. I think there are only a couple of custom roms for the G version.

Bro, as said above. Please make sure you know what's you're doing before flashing. you flashed the wrong ROM. You could avoid wasting 500 bucks :-(

I'd say don't worry.
Just go to Original Development and find a i9100G stock rom and flash it through odin.
Search for bricked in General section there's a tutorial somewhere to unbrick your phone.
Stay calm and it's fixable. Samsung phones are basically very difficult to [email protected]

That's either not true, or you're not as smart as we thought. Well wait, no one thought that . It's funny though. I bet you impatiently flashed some incompatible ROM, or you haven't followed the instructions exactly.

its not funny bud
actually u r right, in excitement i tried to install custom rom asap..but i didnt knew tht dere was different versions of Galaxy S2..may be i flashed a wrong ROM
..my Bad..anyways would u plz help me in rooting my phone..i have tried all doomlord, zergrush..but it got stuck on reeboting say sunable to copy or whatever in system/app ....
can u help
I think what Saw is getting at is this. What happened to your phone happened because you didn't do the research. And if someone here spoonfeeds you what you're asking, what if you balls it up ? Same result. Bricked phone. Unless someone is actually sitting there with you doing it for you, there's no point someone else telling you what to do.
What you need to do is read/learn until you both understand what it is you want to do with your phone, why you want to do it and most importantly, know how to do it. Do not do anything to your phone if you're not confident (like you aren't now) or are unsure or scared of bricking your phone.
You have a lot of reading/learning to do so if you really want to root your phone, install a custom rom or whatever, I suggest you get started with that & wait until you're able to do it without being told what/how by someone else.

Questions go in the Question and answer section. Also, if you're"not good with computers" , it's easy to get a little more familiar. There are faqs and stickies about how to properly use heimdall and Odin, those things are really all you need to properly understand from a computer standpoint. But always read as much as you can. I know how tempting it is to flash stuff, but you don't wanna brick your device, and we don't want you to either

So basically you did things to a phone that isn't the i777? And you want help from i777 users?
OK. Good luck with that.

G925W8 - how to root and extend battery life

Hey I've got the Canadian Bell version and I don't see any information on this model in particular. Just wondering how do I root it?
I've been getting horrible battery life and I hear rooting it helps. Any tips on what to do after I root to extend battery life is also greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

read this whole thread here
pay attention to what EVONC says, i believe it's page 15 that has the first files you need and then later on in the thread, mid 20's pages he posts another file. You flash the first file from page 15 using odin, and then flash the original file for our phones 825w. the files are only 20~ mb each, you dont need to flash anything other then those 2 files. Read the whole thread and you will know what im talking about. at work right now so i cant dig through it all for you, your gonna have to read it lol
just to add to that, i got my phone yesterday, had it rooted within a few hours of getting it so i dont know what battery life was like before, but i charged it to 100% and went to bed, woke up 7.5 hours later and it was at 96%
used it throughout the day today, and at 5pm it was at 70% so everything works great
i have tried to find custom Recovery for my Bell edge it always fails any body has any idea
on my phone screen i get error too ( blocked by R/L )
