I'm on 100% Stock Rom this is my 2nd note Device ATT Version I717

This version is never been rooted before. I do want to root my device

I'm still under Warrinity is there any way to put any rom without increase the Counter #

How do I void the Counter #

Is there a special Odin Software that will not increase Counter #

Can someone point me to the right direction I looked all over XDA Forums I didn't find a thing how to void counter increase.

I would like to keep it at 0 at all times....

Thanks....

Your counter will increase, but there are methods and tools that will fix that taking it back. If you are worried about your Warranty, then rooting or flashing should not be done, but here the link for the GNote Super Page with all the tools needed and or required.

I want to make sure i'm doing it correctly

I want to flash "ParanoidAndroid CM10Hybrid by JamieD81 http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=26857828&postcount=2
Version 2.10 I717

If I was going to flash this rom how would I go about Root the Device step by step guide without increasing my flash counter?

Also which Root method do I need to do and best for flashing rom? So sorry sound like a Noob!!!!

Can you provide me detail steps guide I did try the ATT Flash Counter Reset in Custom Recovery on my 1st note it did not reset my counter back to default it said I had 6 and every time I tried to use ATT Flash Counter Reset.zip file on my ATT Device it increase my flash counter I though it post to put it back to 0.

I want to prevent this from ever increase the counter?

I need some tools and guide which forums do I go to?

How do you reset the counter I heard you can reset the counter by going into Custom Firmware Recovery Mode and delete cache x3 times and after you delete everything in recovery mode then go into Samsung Kies software hit Restore to Factory Setting does this method fix everything?

HERE THE VIDEO CAN I DO THIS WITH ATT DEVICE WITHOUT JIG...

Flashing a ROM in cwm will not increase the counter. When you flash something in Odin it will. That counter reset zip is supposed to be flashed in a custom recovery(cwm, twrp). You only need a custom recovery to flash a ROM, not root. You flash cwm through Odin. That will increase your counter by one. You can then flash the reset zip in recovery to get it back to zero. Then you can flash all the ROMs you want through recovery without increasing the counter.

Sounds like you used Odin to flash this? Careful before you brick. Just some friendly advise. You only need a custom recovery to flash a ROM, not root. You flash cwm through Odin.

K got the file for CWR directly from Clockwork Recovery Site it was the same version he had on the Forum as well.

here what I'M understanding

First I got to make sure all the USB Drivers all up to date which is all up to date. & latest version of Samsung Kies too..

Plug my phone with the USB Cable into Computer wait until shows SGH-I717

use Odin 1.85 software and use pda to flash the CWR not to check the Start Button yet.

Put my phone into Recovery mode.

Once in Recovery Mode then hit start and do not change any settings.

After it's flashed

then I got to install the ATT Flash Counter Reset though CWR that will put my counter down from 1 to default correct.

Then put the rom in the sd card and same with ATT Flash Counter & Gapps latest version

First Thing to install is
1) CWR Recovery though Odin
2) Install ATT Flash Counter Reset though CWR
3) Install Jelly Bean Rom
4)Install Gapps

Is this correct information?

Should I not touch my kernel just leave it alone too.

No!
It says on that post that that method is only for Gingerbread roms, NOT stock ICS, which is what you have...

It's in the first sentence. It's red. And bold.
Lol...

my suggestion to every new user to ROMs and flashing

read until your eyes bleed, your fingers fall off and your ball sack shrivels into dust! :cool:

read read read.....research read and research the research.

If you are even remotely afraid of snarfing up your device then re read what you read and then read it again.

Great to ask questions and most will be helpful but get your melon into your puter screen and hit every link given every resource possible.

And remember, NO one is responsible for what you or I do to our devices. We ALL do this knowing full well the risks.

Welcome to the Note forums. And everyone has given you sound advice already.


Regards
Mortem
