gerardo891 · Mar 20, 2014

Hello, I have done a bit of research around the web and yet I have not come across any possible way to root my Galaxy note 2 from AT&T, Some people have said that it wont work or that It's not possible and really have run out of options, This is the only place where I think I could get some help. Any help is appreciated, Thank you in advanced.

Update SuperSU app. After the update a window will pop up asking if you want to disable Knox. Answer yes

You will be doing this....
Install
As the name suggests, the Install option lets you install any recovery-flashable zip file to your device. This can be a ROM, a kernel, a mod, a theme, a system app – pretty much anything that’s available in the recovery-flashable zip file format.

The recovery-flashable zip will be the UPDATE 1.93 SU file

Flashing the TWRP is the same way as you flashed Root.

Is this what you used ?
CF-Auto-Root-t0lteatt-t0lteatt-samsungsghi317.zip

If so ODIN was in there.... You are using the same method to flash the custom recovery. If you didn't use that file above, that may be part of your problem.

The only way to get rid of the Knox messages is to disable it. Flashing the Update SU file will do that.

The file I installed on my phone thru odin was called CF-Auto-Root-t0lteatt-t0lteatt-samsungsghi317.tar it was a .tar file idk if that makes a diffrence

That is fine.... That file was in the zip file I posted....

You flash the recovery file the same way.. Then you follow the instructions to boot into recovery. After you copy the UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.93.zip to your external sdcard or sdcard.

Then follow the TWRP flashable zip install instructions. Takes less than 15 minutes for the whole process.

After it flashes, go to the supersu app, click it should pop and ask to disable Knox.

Or try and reflash the CF-auto-root file since you have done that already. Pay attention to the status screen makes sure it completes successfully.

So I pretty much have Flash the recovery file to install CWM correct? And then I boot into recovery mode, So I could then flash the superuser update? I think thats how it goes.. Lol im sorry it's kinda confusing.

Correct. The recovery file is the custom recovery.

There are two main types of custom recoveries.
- CWM, ClockWorkMod, which comes in a touch format or a format you need to use your power button, up/down volume keys to navigate.
- Or TWRP, Team Win Recovery Project To start with use TWRP, I think it is the easier of the two to use.

You have the steps correct.

1. Flash the TWRP custom recovery file in ODIN. (same method you attempted with the CF-AUTO-Root)

2. Reboot into recovery.
Power off phone.
Wait a minute and turn it back on. To boot into TWRP recovery (HOLD VOL UP+HOME+POWER) while it is powering on. Do this quickly after turning phone on, within seconds of powering on.

3. You'll see a screen that says Team Win Recovery Project at the top with about six grey buttons on a black background
Click install.
Upon hitting Install, you’re presented with the files and folders on your phone’s storage, from which you can select the file you want to flash. Find the UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.93.zip.
With the file selected, you can swipe the slider to confirm and start flashing the selected file.

4. Once the flashing process is complete, TWRP gives you some handy options for quick access to certain tasks that many users would need to perform after flashing, eliminating the extra steps required to pick them from their individual sections. These include wiping cache and dalvik cache, and rebooting the system, in addition to a Home shortcut.
Click reboot. Then go to SuperSU app and test it.

So I pretty much just flash TWRP and then I understand from there. But what do I need to flash CWM for then?

Close your eyes and erase CWM from your mind.... Think happy TWRP flashing thoughts.

They are technically both the same thing. They do the same thing.
