I'm guessing you have the Chinese ROM. There is an ROW (Indian) ROM available on needrom.com with OTA capabillity. You dont have to root but have to flash with SPFlashtool.
Here is the ROM and installation instructions:

That DA DL Checksum-thingy in the instructions is super important. If you forget that, you WILL end up with a bricked device.

[Q] N7000 4.1.2 root queries - PLZ help RESOLVE some doubts

Hello guys, GREETINGS..
I was a newbie in android a few months back until I found Cursed4Eva forums/vids by ASH & this website..
Thanks to above I have pretty much understood the android concept of root/unroot, roms, flash, kernals, etc..
Now with the help of - (youtube.com/watch?v=rYTnlt1xt4M) I wish to root my Note1.
1. If I just root for now with Link 1 in Downloads section in above video page & say probably in future I wish to install CWM, which is like Link 2 in Downloads section in above video page, then how should I do it ?? Means I'm asking this because the Link1 describes as Only ROOT & Link2 describes ROOT+CWM, I mean whats the procedure to install CWM after ROOT you know ??
2. Is there a simpler way to Unroot, I mean like the same process of root which has minimal downloads, no pc required, etc. This I'm asking wherein I'm just gonna root my device & not install CWM (currently).. I mean I dont wanna download the whole new official rom from samfirmware like - (cursed4eva.com/how-to-unroot-the-galaxy-note)
3. Actually Whats the procedure to unroot & install latest stock firmware coming from Root+CWM & Custom ROM installed ??
4. And finally to receive OTA update on rooted devices do you think this video (youtube.com/watchfeature=player_embedded&v=ky5miA8ilr0) should also work ?? Although I still believe this looks reliable (cursed4eva.com/update-galaxy)
Please resolve my queries which shall enable me to unleash the power of android !!
Thanking you in anticipation
Cheers:good:,
Firoze
If you want help here you shouldn't ask for explanations of other forums or obscure youtube videos.
In XDA you'll find everything you need and can be sure that many members verified and used the tutorials here.
What do you want? Root or No-Root, that's the question.
No-Root: Install a Stock JB Rom with PC Odin (yes you have to download it)
Root1: Install a Stock JB Rom with PC Odin (same comment as above) and root it with Phil's kernel (thread in Original Android development forum).
Root2: Install one of the Custom Roms and follow the installation instructions in the related thread of your chosen Rom.
I'd reply to Ash in the comment section below video....Ash is pretty good at getting back to you with answers or he usually also mentions his email address at the end of the video...

Those instructions should be crystal clear. If you follow them then you won't get the Status 7 error.

Note 5 MM - request how-to guide

Hello guys,
I have the note 5 n900c, and I am interested in rooting and installing custom packages.
Could anyone with some experience compile a quick guide on:
How to find the latest rooted stock firmware for Note 5
How do you keep the device updated when Samsung releases new firmware (or updates) ? do you have to wipe each time ? how do you backup if so?
I am just looking for a convenient way to root and keep the device up-to-date with all the minor fixes released by Samsung.
Thank you guys for helping.

Hi,
Firstly search XDA Note5 forum and you will learn.!
There is threads/Guide, in General forum of Note5 and on other websites /forums.
Secondly, you state you" have a note 5 n900c "..?
You sure not a" N920C "model.?
Remember , if you root you cannot install OTA /updates from Samsung, (unless you unroot etc)
Even if you manage to download a OTA, you most likely will "brick" you device!
Otherwise, you have to flash current new updated Samsung Rom , everytime and root again.
Before you attempt to root...... you have to read alot and Google search to find the correct information. Also viewing YouTube videos helps.
I can deduct from your post, you still have a lot to learn about rooting.
Don't just root because it "cool"!
Remember, in effort to root, you can brick your device...!
trip Knox, plus other issues etc. maybe your device does not want to enter "sleep" mode, maybe warranty etc. Can't install "certain apps " because your device is rooted.
So after you searched and have read the Guides that is available, then decide what you want to do.?
Also note, that for some device /models, members do not have root.. yet.!
Its your device..!
good luck

Hi,
Yes, if you flashed a good reliable custom Rom ,
the relevant dev of Rom most probably would keep updating "all." plus other handy mods and features. etc
He would also most probably specify this in relevant custom Rom thread (Normally , the first, second or third post.)
I would not worry to much about this. Just subscribe to that
thread, that you know of any issues or new versions
that is available.
Good luck

I'm not the ROM Creator or Developer
I'm just sharing how I successfully installed RR N on my ZE601KL
I put strain on ZE601KL cause it was difficult to find proper help and instructions and I kept facing some or the other issues for some time
The major problem I faced was Speaker not working and I got it fixed permanently by flashing ROM with proper procedure
This ROM is published by Fabb2303 and CLICK HERE to see his original thread.
I greatly appreciate all efforts of the dev
Downloads:
RR N latest build (from his thread)
Speaker Fix (from his thread)
Latest BeanGapps-arm64-7.1 - CLICK HERE
Official Unlock App
TWRP 3.0.2-Z00T
My Procedure:

2. Then I unlocked bootloader using Official Unlock App
3. Then flashed latest TWRP-Z00T
4. Advanced Wipe : System, Data, Cache, Dalvik-Cache

I'm curious about your steps here. Do you really have ZE601KL?
And you really can unlock bootloader using Official unlock App?
Because i'm googling everywhere i know, i can't find a person who success to unlock bootloader a ZE601KL, using official unlock app.
Even in some sites, our device is listed among unsupported device for official unlock app..

Hi mate. I just did, yesterday, but it wasn't easy. I guess it was just cause I'm a troll, regarding development and proper use of the resources the comunity shares here.
Seems to me that it was worse cause I wasn't used to work with adb, and my device was unusable. But as soon as I got the apk in the phone and got it to work, I think I had to start the apk a few times cause of some error, but in the end it got to work. Maybe you should try again, it doesn't seem that difficult to me now, after all the trouble. Get the apk on your phone and run it from there.
I was just looking now, and the one that's said to be appropriate for ze601kl [release_UnlockApp_1211.apk] wasn't the one that did it for me. The one that worked was supposed to work with Z00L, I think [UnlockTool_ASUS_AndroidM20160928_Singed.apk].
Anyway, unlocking the bootloader doesn't give you root acces directly. I don't really understand how root access seems to work these days, apparently you need to flash some patch (after unlocking bootloader) and then you can give access to apps. I don't really understand, it was different a few years ago. It was nice to go on playstore and get a free app to give you access without any trouble. Not anymore.
Here's a link in case you need, I think it's the right ZE601KL Unlock Tool: [drive. google. com/file/d/0By51hEg7wH0ONGZ0T0JNYXhQb1E/view ]. All the best!
ps: can't post external links, just add the "http" stuff and take the spaces off.

(NOT A PROJECT)Samsung Galaxy J7 2017 (SM-J710FN) Root

Hello there guys.Feels nice to come back to XDA Developers again.I really need some help with my phone.
I want it to root it so i can delete all the stupid pre installed and non uninstallable apps samsung offers.
Apparently I have the model with the (F)N in the end,so I dont think the other methods would work in my case.
I have bricked an older device called Lenovo Vibe Z (K910) which had some factory problems and I tried to fix them,so I am a bit afraid of trying the methods given(Magisk,Xposed,etc)
What would you recommend?
Sorry for any misunderstanding,but I dont certainly know where I should have posted that thread.

I don't have this device but, your device information is a bit confusing...
The SM-J710FN was released in April of 2016 as outlined in the following link.
http://www.phonemore.com/samsung-galaxy-j7-2016-sm-j710fn/specs/2747
The 2017 Variant was the SM-J730 (Variants) with no "FN" indicator as outlined in the following link.
http://www.phonemore.com/samsung-galaxy-j7-2017-j7-pro/models/1658
With that stated...
The following area of the forum is specific to the J710 Variants.

This could be contributing to your inability to locate information on your specific device.
This is an innocent mistake that isn't a big deal...
Good Luck!
