Title says it all.
I'd like to root my galaxy note to remove bloatware as well as to install root only apps. How do i do that while keeping my stock ROM? Is there a way to root without having to install a different ROM?
Appreciate anyone's help with this.
depends on what stock rom version you are running
Thank you for your reply.
Would this picture help identifying which ROM I'm using?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1329360
scroll down until you hit: I have Kernel KK1/KK2/KK3/KK4/KK5 - Download This - and Extract that's for root+cwm.
if you only want root, then use zergrush method

it's all on that thread, first post.
Thank you so much!
Before doing this i have some noob questions please.
Will i be able to unroot in a later date while still keeping the same stock ROM? Also, does unrooting puts the phone back under warranty or once rooted the warranty is voided permanently?
You can regain warranty by putting back Stock ROM anytime (you have to just flash Stock ROM with PC Odin)

Great! I just finished rooting. How can i save my stock ROM to flash it back in need? Or is it available somewhere and i just need to download it? I'm asking because i checked the thread with the stock ROMs and the one for my country isn't included there. Maybe if i know how o can help the community by posting it in that thread? Thank you!
reboot into cwm recovery, and do a nandroid backup. Dr. Ketan's thread says it all, really

Checked Dr. Ketan's thread. it has great info and a lot of helpful things but I couldn't find how to backup the complete phone to regain warranty by restoring when needed. maybe I overlooked it?
does a nandroid backup saves the kernel and modem and everything? or just the ROM?
sorry, noob here, who knows, maybe one day i'll be developing and adding some value to this community
Thank you guys for the help! very much appreciated!

Not quite, as most flash methods would increase the binary counter.
Re-flashing a stock kernel would only get rid of the yellow triangle.
There are ways to reset the binary counter, but he would need to make sure that his binary is at 0 (NO) to be 100% sure he will get warranty service

My answer was in reply to warranty back for rooted device, not raised counter.
N correct first line not most of method raise count. It is-
Any custom rom/kernel if flashed with pc odin that only raise counter.

To get warranty just flash back to a stock ROM it.wont raise the flashing count because it's an official rom

question is: how do i get back my stock ROM as i don't see it in the stock ROMs thread. I'm located in Morocco and using Meditel Galaxy Note. That's why i asked about how i can make a full backup of my ROM, kernel, baseband and everything to flash them when i need to regain warranty services.
Thank you guys!
try check fus Downloader
it has most of the KIES firmware available.
using it mainly since my first Galaxy S when i'm too lazy to hunt for custom roms and want to stay able to update with KIES

You can do it after getting root only, get root + CWM
Then with cwm you can backup.

My apologies- I just wanted to point that out.
Furthermore, of course flashing a stock kernel would not raise the counter and get rid of the yellow triangle, but if they hypothetically checked the binary counter and it was not at NO, then they could refuse warranty coverage for service AFAIK. Re-flashing a stock kernel will not reset the binary counter if it is above 0
I am not disagree, you are right. raised counter will not solved by flashing stock rom. That needs jig i know.
But i want to convey that your reply to my quote was misleading.
Actually someone have asked me, does unrooting can regain waranty? Or rooting voids my warranty permanently?
For that i said just reflashing stock rom will unroot n warranty will b regained.
That case there was not a question of raised counter.

Its been a while since ive been on these forums, i used to root and install custom roms on my X10 all the time..... but a Few days ago i rooted my Galaxy Note, following a tutorial from root galaxy note .com and my phone rebooted fine and after doing a root check my phone showed as being rooted, then last night in bed i installed lcd density and changed the settings upon restart my note is hanging on the Samsung bootup logo, i can get into odin mode where it stays on Downloading...Do not turn off target!!, i can also get it into Android System Recover, but cannot get the method of both buttons and power to work
I have been googling online for the last hour finding an answer and most seem to say i need to reflash the whole phone back to normal in odin but was wondering if there is any easier way to get back up and running especially as i didnt install any custom firmware on my phone
please help ??
This question dosn't belong to dev-forum.
But here's the quick answer:
LCD Density changes only one line that blongs to DPI in build.prop file. But you have to alter 2 lines.
So the quick way to revert your bootloop: go to recovery, make a full wipe and reflash your ROM.
If you want change your DPI: Alter it by manually change the lines in build.prop or grab ROM-Toolbox from market and make the changes.
hi thanks for the answer, when you say your rom ? ive been trying to find a custom uk 4.04 rom for the note for the last 45 mins but cant seem to find one, any ideas where ? also how would i change the build.prop without my phone being able to boot up, is it possible?

Oh b******s! Can anybody possibly confirm to me what I suspect? Numbnuts aka me decided that I wanted to go back to genuine firmware (unrooted) I9305. Done the official thing via ODIN and thought wahey back to normal. Um..............well i'm not basically. Not only has the device remained modified..............my sim card is now showing as no service (t-mobile/EE) and to top it all off the *#06* thing to find the IMEI? It's showing as nu//lnull.

I had same problem with imei number. Would say null/null for imei and say device is
unknown. And only state no sim inserted. I havent found a complete fix and my i9305 still does not
work with stock firmware kernel. All i found was a workaround for now.
What I did to get phone working was:
Install stock firmware via odin.
Then flash perseus kernel via odin.
Make sure to clean cache etc if you coming from custom rom.
I do not know why this works. Found by trial and error.
Hope it helps you in some way
Have to say I have no problems with perseus kernel

I think that's a no go. Stuck on the boot logo unfortunately (that's after flashing the thing from there and wiping the cache) I guess it really does need to go to the service centre after all (I will reflash the 4.1.2 stock)
Is it possible you are not using a unlocked baseband. I found using unrooted stock baseband caused bootloop use one from s3 toolkit should fix it for you. I am using bll3. With 4.2.1 . Only thing I can think would cause. sorry couldnt help.

Repairing IMEI
Dear all,
Although I’m quite new in this forum, I’ve some years of experience with my HTC Desire CyanogenMod.
In early feb, I moved to a Galaxy SIII I9503 which was working perfectly until my IMEI gets corrupted.
I try to recover using this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1804117, the process goes… but unfortunately it doesn’t change the IMEI.
Does anyone has experimented it ?

Hi everyone, just wondering if anyone could bare with me and help me out with my little issue.
THE ISSUE:
I bought a locked (Vodafone) I9305 for my girlfriend, in hopes that I could then SIM-unlock it as easily as I did with my Galaxy S2;
I understand I need to root my phone before I do that, so...
THE QUESTION:
How do I backup my phone before rooting it, so that I can return it to the exact state it came out of the box?
Also, what's the safest method for rooting it?
And before you guys tell me, I did use the search function, but it only came up with some generic tutorials that don't really go into what I want to do.
Any help would be really appreciated!

To go back to stock use odin, and to search your firmware go to sammobile.com
As for rooting (im not sure), i think if u flash supersu.zip from supersu thread on stock recovery u will get root

Try CF-Auto root for rooting (using odin) from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1959605,
easier and simplest way to root.
After rooting, just do a factory reset and your phone status will stay Normal/Official instead of Modified.
Please note that this is just root and no custom recovery is included
to get back to stock, use Odin too as the C4SCA mentioned above
there are multiple guides on rooting, backing up, and unlocking.

Wait, what? Since when does doing a factory reset on an Android phone takes it back to the original firmware? I've had an HTC One X, and a custom firmware on it, and everytime I do a factory reset, it just deletes the files, it doesn't change the software at all. Am I missing something here? Is it different with the Galaxy S3 I9305?
Ok so, sorry for double posting, but I think I'm getting somewhere.
Since I only need root to unlock the phone, once I do root it (I figure I can use this guide?), I should FIRST unlock it and THEN reset the flash counter? And then, in case I need to return the phone back, I'll reset it to factory state (unrooted and locked)...how?
Just need help with this last question please!

Dude, I never said it will change the firmware, it will change the system status under settings --> About phone --> Status to Normal from Modified
This enables to get OTA updates even if the phone is rooted
To answer your last question, you just need to flash the stock firmware ( which is currently on your phone) again using odin

Hello Guys i flashed the Germany Version of 4.3 lte last night and in doing so i have Temporarily killed my Phone.
I have tried all the Recoveries processes via Kies and Odin and i am having no luck.
I think the reason why it won't flash is because the Germany 4.3 is a Newer Version than the Stock 4.1.2.
When i'm in Odin i get sboot.bin Fail when trying to Flash the Latest Stock rom. I am able to Flash the Germany 4.3 again and that flashes but then the Phone Stays on the Samsung Flash Screen.
Could someone please Help? I have been on with this for Hours now. I think what i need is a 4.3 Version of any rom in Odin .tar format so i can at least get the phone to boot up and then maybe i can get CWM Recovery on there and flash a Stock rom that way.
Thanks in Advance
You have to remove sboot.bin and tz.bin when downgrading. Be careful, downgrading will give you Knox warranty void 0x1!

THE kies frimware intilition doesnt work as you have 4.3 bootloader and knox blocks older boot loader
dont worry when 4.3 becomes available in your area it wont have to downgrade and ultimately this method will work but still things are looking pretty bad dor the intermediatory days.
PS is ther anyway to restore baseband imei without any backup

I wish i could say what i did and it worked but i have absolutely no idea what was done differently.
Thanks all for your Help.
I will say i installed the drivers manually and just on the off chance i flashed it again with the file i downloaded last Night. I also flashed a recover trying to get it to load a recover so i could flash a zip file.

Sorry for the late response but when you get stuck on the Samsung boot screen all you have to do is boot into Recovery and do a Factory Reset and Wipe Cache.
Another thing to remember is to flash the modem for your country otherwise you might accidently disable some frequencies and enable other useless ones.

Which 4.3 update did you flash? I used the DBT German one.
Did you flash the right modem too? It worked for me and i was using a i9305T. All i did was flash the latest modem (from the brand of phone i have which is Telstra) and did a wipe data and wipe cache.
