[ROOT] Verizon Note 10.1 - SCH-I925

drozek · Mar 11, 2013

First and foremost, I did not create this root package.

Just posting it here so people can have it in the forum:

Use the Frodo exploit.

I am working with a dev to unlock the bootloader, donation will be automatically to the following charity:
http://www.pawschicago.org/

The Bootloader is in fact locked.
If any devs need the following:
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p1
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p2
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p8
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p9

let me know I can send them to you right away.

This worked for me. Thank you for the hint. I have been chomping at the bit trying to figure out how to root this device.

Thank you!

No problem, I am working on unlocking the bootloader currently, hope to have it done by this weekend if everything goes well.

Really appreciate this. No root has been driving me crazy. :banghead:

From an unlocked Note 2. Hmm...... Can you hear me Verizon, out on Uranus?

Worked for me too. Now I'm a happy camper with my newly rooted Note 10.1 4G/lte.

Has anyone tried any custom recovery flashes? Does this do what my brothers Verizon note 2 did when I put cwm on it before I realized I had to unlock bootloader first? [Paraphrased] 'Verizon says screw you, this is our device even though you paid for it and you must run our crippled bloated software'

Yes I have tried it, the bootloader is locked down, working with a team to try to figure it out.

I spoke with their verizon's reps before buying their note 10.1 LTE and asked them if it can be used with other network providers and he said, " Yes, DEFINITELY, The note 10.1 LTE is GSM unlocked" To my great surprise when I received my note 10.1, I couldn't get it to work. Will there be a way to get this to work? They say it is unlocked but in reality it isn't. I need help because I really do not want to be on the verizon network because I have solavei that gives me unli 4g data already. Please help me. I dont mind paying someone to get this working for me, I just don't want to pay verizon's crazy fees just for data.

Yes with an unlocked bootloader this will be possible.

Awesome, I wish I could help but my coding skills are in their infancy at the moment. Anxiously awaiting the ability to use nandroid backup again and deodex'd roms. I assume deodex is what it would take to get the multiwindow complete control app to work on the 10.1?

I am not familiar with Multiwindow Complete Control but Multiwindow Manager works really well with a rooted device.

Awesome, works great, thanks

Has there been and new developments on the bootloader?

Anyone who used this to root the SCH-i925 does your camera work? This is the first time I tried to use the camera and the unit locks up on me.

Theres always a reason someone needs somewthing and your condescending attitude gets you nowhere.

Camera works fine here also. Front and back, exept the flash doesnt work with the front faciing camera, but i havent looked into it enough to know if its user or software.
