[Q] Root help!!

[rakeshm01]

Hi

Total newbie here, and i have read the other posts and tried to fathom this out for myself, but am a tad lost.

I have a p600 uk version.

1. I understand you need to install the stock recovery file using Odin after you have installed the cfauto root file.
2. What is the stock recovery file?
3. The version i downloaded appears to be stockrecoverytarmj4: but the firmware version my note is on is vMJ6 (Uk version) - does that mean i will in effect be downgrading my note from v6 to v4?
4. Also - if i wanted to update my stock firmware to the latest version (i beleive its ML1) do i just ignore the process to install the MJ4.tar and use a tar file for ML1.
5. If 4 is correct -where does one find the stock recovery for ML1 that is compatible with p600 (Uk edition)

I hope i dont upset anyone with the stupidity of my questions, but im not the most techy of individuals and i dont want to brick a £500 device!

thanks for the help in advance

Quick Replies :

1. You only need to re-flash back a stock recovery if you are not going to install a custom recovery TWRP for us now & install a custom rom afterwards , also ChainFire Auto root will not overcome your stock recovery , download from here http://download.chainfire.eu/378/CF-Root/CF-Auto-Root/CF-Auto-Root-lt03wifi-lt03wifixx-smp600.zip .

2. Updating your stock firmware via sammobile : http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/1/?model=SM-P600&pcode=0#firmware
