[Q] Cyanogenmod on Samsung Note 2 (i605)

[jjones312]

I'm running in to the following error when attempting to flash my Samsun Note 2 (i605). Can anyone provide some help on getting past this issue?

I've used adb to reboot the device into download and attempted to run the below.

Here is the resources I'm using
Instructions I'm using are here: Wiki CyanogenMod on Samsung Galaxy Note 2 LTE (Verizon) ("i605")
Using Heimdall Suite v1.4.0
Recovery: recovery-clockwork-6.0.4.3-i605.img
On MAC: OSx 10.9.5


Here is the output

#sudo heimdall flash --RECOVERY recovery-clockwork-6.0.4.3-i605.img --no-reboot --verbose
Heimdall v1.4.0

I'm not a big fan of clockworkmod recovery...
Install twrp http://teamw.in/project/twrp2/133

Can you clarify one thing. I"m guessing the instructions on that page may be out of date? When I go there from my Samsung Galaxy Note 2 (verizion i605), it doesn't download goo manager. It brings up TWRP Manager (ROOT) by Jmz Software. Is this correct?

You have to install this! https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.s0up.goomanager

You have to install this! (this link your posted goes here.. noobs can't post URLs yet./QUOTE]

I'd love to but that link returns "We're sorry, the requested URL was not found on this server.", when browsing to that URL on phone or laptop.
Do you have an alternate download? and if so, can I install using ADP?

I was able to download "openrecovery-twrp-2.3.1.1-t0ltevzw.img" from the direct download link.

Just search "GooManager" on play store... by Snipanet Apps

Thanks.. But unfortunately when searching for "GooManager" it doesn't return anything w/ that name or by that company/dev. Searching for Snipanet Apps returns nothing.

Searching "GooManager" returns the following list in order (first 10)
TWRP Manager (ROOT) by Jmz Software
ROM Manager by ClockworkMOd

Ok... so you have two alternatives.
-If do you have a windows pc, flash with ODIN this https://goo.im/devs/OpenRecovery/t0ltevzw/openrecovery-twrp-2.7.2.1-t0ltevzw.img.tar
(flash using the "AP" button and selection on Odin v3.09 or newer version)

-If you prefere or use Linux, you can use the DD method described on the page I linked on my first reply (http://teamw.in/project/twrp2/133)
EDIT:
OK I'm an Idiot xD you are a mac user... so with heimdal flash this: https://goo.im/devs/OpenRecovery/t0ltevzw/openrecovery-twrp-2.7.2.1-t0ltevzw.img

I suggest you to flash 2.7.2.1 version (as I linked to you) because it's stable and I had some issues with 2.8.0 version... fixed on 2.8.1, but it's not available for your device...

Thanks for the info and links..

So... The fun begins

I have Heimdall version 1.4.0 installed along with ADP. Here is the steps I did to attempt to flash TWRP.

1. Rebooted MAC
2. Connected Phone
3. ran ./ADP reboot download
4. ran heimdall detect (found device)
5. based on some issues I noted at Cyanogendmod with heimdall and Samsung drivers did the follow to unload drivers
sudo kextunload -b com.devguru.driver.SamsungComposite
sudo kextunload -b com.devguru.driver.SamsungACMData
sudo kextunload -b com.devguru.driver.SamsungACMControl
6. sudo heimdall flash --RECOVERY openrecovery-twrp-2.7.2.1-t0ltevzw.img --no-reboot

Here is the output from the screen:

sudo heimdall flash --RECOVERY openrecovery-twrp-2.7.2.1-t0ltevzw.img --no-reboot
Heimdall v1.4.0

Did you try just the DD method ?

adb push openrecovery-twrp-2.7.2.1-t0ltevzw.img /sdcard

adb shell dd if=/sdcard/openrecovery-twrp-2.7.2.1-t0ltevzw.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p9

adb shell dd if=/sdcard/openrecovery-twrp-2.7.2.1-t0ltevzw.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p9

Here is what happens running that from download mode

jesses-air:Mac Jesse$ heimdall detect
Device detected
jesses-air:Mac Jesse$ sudo ./adb push openrecovery-twrp-2.7.2.1-t0ltevzw.img /sdcard
error: device not found
jesses-air:Mac Jesse$

Also tried to ./adb kill-server and ./adb start-server

 

[FUSIONdev]

You have to make these steps with phone in normal mode, not download mode...

By the way thanks for the help so far..

You can try to root easily using https://towelroot.com/
(ps check that you enabled USB Debugging on developer settings)

 

[jjones312]

I tried Towel Root. it said my device was not supported. I'm going to try to get a Windows PC today..

USB debugging is on

Do you have a link to Odin.exe? Initially I tried just google searching and downloaded an Odin.exe that installed malware etc etc.. (i'm cleaning that PC now). From what I understanding Odin is a stand-alone app that doesn't install, just runs.

thanks!

ps: I have an Windows PC to attempt from

I think I found it by searching here in the forum.

[jjones312]

That link doesn't appear to have download links to Odin 3.09 anymore? Know where it can be found?

You have no luck with this root xD
I uploaded it for you: https://www.dropbox.com/s/up732djqp0ysmhv/Odin_v3.09.zip?dl=0

Maybe you will need to install drivers before: http://d-h.st/a7H

Remember to reboot the phone...

Odin must show the COM port with blu background... then you can flash the package (remember to select it on AP)
