The phone has superuser on it already. I downloaded ROM manager to check the recovery and it has CWM and TWRP. Is it safe to install custom roms or is there other steps that I need to take? The baseband is vraljb.... Android version 4.1.1
Thank you in advance.

Have you booted into recovery at all?
Sent from my SCH-I605 using xda app-developers app
If you can boot into the custom recovery, you can flash a custom rom.
Great idea I will try that. Thats why you guys are the best.

Thanks guys worked flawlessly...although I didnt get an aroma menu at all, the Rom just flashed. Will have to look into that. Still cant believe I only paid 200 bucks off craigslist for this phone. Nice upgrade from my S3.

200 and esn is clean? Usually they don't ban it for a little while. Let us know what happens. Sounds like a scam.

I did a trade for my iphone 5 for the note 2.
Seems like an even trade. Although I feel like the iphone has a better resale.

Awwh man I hope not... That would really suck, especially after getting used to the size of this screen.... nothing else would compare. The guy seemed straight up though. If this comes back to bite me them I am done with craigslist for devices. I'll keep you guys up posted.

Must be a clean ESN if you were able to activate it.

If you do an insurance job and get another phone. They don't ban your original for weeks. So he could activate it. But it's still on a list to be banned.

If its legit, then you got a killer deal. The cheapest GN2 that I've seen was $350 but it had a cracked screen. I see some for $200-250, but I am sure those are scams. The next time you buy a Verizon phone, call *611 and verify the ESN status before handing over money or trading phones. A legit seller will not mind at all.

They probably will not give us a forum for our device any time soon because:
1. Locked boatloader
2. No root exploit found yet.

I did request a separate forum, but I agree with you. Without root and with a locked bootloader, there isn't much for us to talk about that we need a separate forum.

Looks like we might not get a separate forum, as the note 3 will be released at the end of the year

The note 3 is on both AT&T and Verizon's website now. It ships Oct 1 for AT&T and Oct 10 for Verizon so it's just a month away now.

The AT&T Note III wil get a forum because it's a flagship device. The Mega is a mid-range device. Trust me there will be an AT&T Note III forum. It will have more developers.

I agree on the Note, but the Infuse was a very mid range phone and it's forum is still going strong with lots of development....and Scott's Beanstalk build is being kanged to quite a few other devices.

Moto X and Moto G are both going to be supported for years because Motorola is owned by Google now. Therefore, Motorola phones are practically Nexus phones. Even though they don't get updates first, they get them soon after!
Well i just found out CyanogenMod Team coming out with a phone... I want that instead since all i'm gonna do is put a custom rom on a phone anyways..

I'm definitely getting the moto g when it comes to the US in January, can't believe it's only $179. Could probably sell this phone for $100 too, $79 for an unlocked 720p phone with KitKat sounds great.

It's tempting but I saw it's only 3G. I may be making another mistake with the F6, but I prefer LTE. I would love a Galaxy but my dad prefers LG.

It isnt unheard of for them to sell early but I agree its unlikely to happen
Yeah some stores might do it.
They would probably get into trouble if corporate found out.

Store can't control it. POS is normally locked down until release date. It would need to be a company decision.
The CS reps have no clue what is going on. A supervisor just told me most people won't receive them this week. I think he had no idea.
Sounds like not.
If I don't have mine on the 11th I'm gonna ask for a credit.
That was the point of a pre order.
