Hi Ketan Thank you so much it worked it restored firmware to STOCK Kernel restore to stock , Will try the triangle Away in evening as i in office now :) :good:

PS : It removed the Franken Beats aswell which was annoying the Sound output

I did not have to Root it again as root was intact

Device status now : Normal


What does this mean i was reading Chainfire thread for triangle away as it states?
A USB JIG IS PREFERRED IF YOU HAVE A WORKING ONE.

If you pull out your micro sd card and do a factory reset then the device status will return to normal.

AS if now i don't need warranty i believe XDA has all solutions rather than me giving away my device to SO CALLED SAMSUNG SERVICE CENTER

May be i need warranty only incase of any H/W replacements :)

XDA is my Primary warranty as i can find all mi fixes :good:

flashed CWM custom recovery it doesn't work

Hi,

Im just new to the Android world and currently would like to try to root and install custom rom. Currently i have a note 2 GT-N7100, I rooted my phone using Odin and it was successful because I already have a SuperSU and was able to install Titanium back-up. Then I installed ROM manager(from google store) and flash a CWM custom recovery (3.0x+) and it promopted successful but after rebooting I tried to open the app again and use the boot in recovery mode option but it would always go to stock recovery. I tried doing the volume up+home+power but it will still route me to stock recovery. Kindly advice what should I do

    Post # 2 and 3 of above said thread



    ---------------------------------------------------------------
    This guide basically written when there was only available method to root device was flashing chenglu's recovery, which was causing to raise flash counter 1 even after triangle away. That was due to samsung's bootloader for Note 2 which have autosum check for recovery. So if you are using any custom recovery your flash counter will raise to 1. Also read this if you want to use CWM recovery and want to reset counter at every boot.

    Later Chainfire have introduce 'Cf Auto root' and in that case no need to use this tutorial as CF auto root package includes stock recovery.

    Still this guide is useful who have flashed CWM and want to move to stock recovery with reseting counter '0'



    Here is guide How to reset counter to '0' and keep device rooted

    All credits to Chainfire and chenglu, without their amazing tool we can't have this......




    -If you have rooted with CWM recovery
    - Your device will have CWM recoovery with root access.
    - Download this stock recovery OR This latest stock recovery from LL7 which believe to be patched by samsung.
    - Flash with PC Odin for PDA tab.
    - Reset counter with Triangle away
    - Now your counter will be '0' and you will have now stock recovery but root access will be intact
    - You will have binnary count '0' but system status still will be 'custom'
    - Reboot to recovery, wipe cache and data
    (this step is just for keeping status' official '
    You can skip if you have too much data, as this status can be achieved even in semibricked condition by wiping from recovery Or by flashing stock rom from download mode. And in hard bricked this status can't be read :p) important thing is to just keep count' 0'.

    - You will have binary count '0' and current binary 'official' as well system status 'official'
    - with latest bootloader you can't achieve system status 'official' with wipe cache and data too, in that case you may need to reflash stock ROM, reboot normally, play for 10 min and it should be 'official'


    New :
    How to change system status 'Modified' to 'Normal' in device setting without factory reset.

    you can enjoy full root access without worrying of warranty

    No No
    This is bootloader bug
    while entering recovery just release power button once splash screen appear, above said error will go, and you can entre to recovery.
    Plz remove quating of full post.

    Now Chainfire have added 'CF Auto Root' to keep counter '0' with Stock recovery
