I've been waiting so long for a reason to root this phone.
Thanks d-fuse! With all the other projects you got going on I was worried this might not get done but you did it! The 1st, hopefully not last and I'm curious if you're making a custom ROM? I'm not sure if anyone has anything out yet but at this point I've put my trust in your expertise.
BTW yall better thank this mofo for putting in the work.

This is why I can't wait til January.
I'm gonna pick up the k20+ just to try the kernel out.

I am currently working on a device tree. I have boot, but a lot of things need to be fixed. Keep in mind with the holidays coming up. I've been working OT at my job for x mas gifts. So, don't be looking for anything until after then.

I got the bootloader unlocked but no root. Couldn't download the file with su. Don't really get what it's for do I'm spending the evening reading the thread more carefully.
BTW that Czar guy from the other thread is about good dude. I don't think he's as knowledgeable as you are but 2 minds always better than 1. I think I saw him offer to assist you but maybe I read that wrong.
Thanks again for the work. I'll get this rooted and if you need testers let me know sir!

Hey D! For no other reason than to fill out this thread (man I figured it be blown up by now) I was wondering..... that mean this doesn't work on the Nov update?
I'm not sure what I'm on anymore. I had the Aug update. The Nov update was bugging the crap outta me to install and it looked good for root so I decided to live on the edge and install it. After root it went to Oct. Now I'm thinking "WTF" lol. I may have used the incorrect no-verity zip. I used the most recent one (6.0) from Nov and appeared to be in line with my current update but I did not read much of the thread and I just saw a video a few months old where they used the 5.3 I think. Just the OP and some crazy ass mofos talking **** lol

Here's my software screen. It looks good to me but I really don't want a brick already lol. Figured no harm to ask.

No particular format, I usually just put it in the phone and roll... It's a 64gb Sandisk ultra. I don't wanna reformat yet but it looks like I may have to... Lol

You sure it's your sd card? There's a corrupt screen that should pop up during every boot but it's not the SD card. I've been searching my azz on how to fix it but I am reading it's normal lol. A screenshot would have saved me a ton of time.

To tell you the truth, I haven't updated stock since I got the phone. Once I get the device tree worked out. I will never use stock again. I just muted the notification for the updates. So IDK man

So rooted froyo has ota update?

so I've been playing around with my aria for a couple of weeks and turned my nexus back on thats rooted and sure enough I have an ota update available for android 2.2, which I already have on the phone.. possibly stupid question, if I update will I lose my root even though I did it bootloader method?
and I thought custom roms even if its stock didn't get ota's

Thanks for the link, it helped me, too.
You guys preaching to search (which I'm not against), I just wanted to point out that you linked to an entirely different site. Thus, had the OP searched *this* site, by your own admission, he/she might not have found what he/she was looking for. Interesting...
My 2 cents here...I had a rooted nexus one froyo 83b WITH a custom recovery.. which supposes to block the frf91 update..n guess what it didn't..my nexus rebooted..it didn't even reboot to recovery it just did a soft reset n when I it back on it had frf91 with no root access..so I'm like wtf?? So I tried to reboot to the custom recovery and yes..you guys guessed with...it went back to the original recovery...

Gotta agree, dont be lazy. Use the search like you should.
I just got an update notification also, and I'm rooted. I let it reboot/install but it showed an error. It was probably frf91.
ladies, congratulations on the update and re-rooting. i'm glad to hear that it worked out for yall.

Thanks for the kick start help brother. Get well sooon ...
Go and read Entropy's sticky on the galaxy note general page. It has up to date news. It seems. Kernel's that were thought safe are not. He says there are only a couple that are 100%.
Don't do any wipes with cwm to be safe. See what he says and use a kernel he recommends. Putting it right involves pit files and is very technical. There is a post in the note general section on this. Read that and pm the guy if you think you are up to going that way . Me I'd just read Entropy's sticky ,make it safe and buy a big SD card and use an app to link it to the built in SD.
I'm going to read what he says in detail my self.
I should not be using this in hospital, I've been told to stop
Good luck

ahhhh thanks bro will get a bigger sd card..
no probs... motherboard replacement is the only way
I have the same situation. Only 8gig of memory. I don't know much about rooting. If i unroot, will it come back to 16gb?
No, the damage is done, you'll never get back original space without mobo replacement.

I bought that phone used. And i discovered couple days after that it was like that. I contacted Samsung but they do not take care of phone that is not Canadian model. They are all the same, Apple, Samsung, Sony, LG, and so on. Products are mostly made in China, sold around the world but no service for them.
Thanks for the info guys....
Unfortunately theres no solution to get the memory back, You could either ask the seller for a refund as it is not as described (unless he originally stated it had been bricked?)
Or make do and get bigger sd card (as said above)
Theres also a way of swapping internal memory for external, So for example: your 32gb sd card will become internal memory, For ROM and Apps etc and the current 8gb internal will become your external, for music, movies, pics ect.
A quick search will churn up a few results. Its not a easy task but it can be done, But if the space doesnt bother you then just make do with it untill you switch devices.

This may not be for you...
This ROM is for someone...
Who wants to tinker and build there own personal ROM from the stock base.
Another developer that may not have the ability to get a stock base (Like me, I only have the AT&T phone)
When you hose your phone trying to "modify" things because you "read it on the internet" somewhere you can then use this ROM to get your anus out of trouble.
You flash someone else ROM and realize its not what you were expecting, you didn't make nandroid back up, and your rebooting every time you try to make a phone call. This ROM would come in real handy
You see where I am going with this?

Dude, tell me about it!
Do you know how long it takes to upload this isht?
I had to TeamView into jparista's PC, dump his phone, build the ROM, then upload it all using his internet connection because he has twice the upload speed I did.
I would still be uploading now!
you say must be on latest OTA, what happens if we flash this on non OTA?
Scott,
In the OP you say we need to be on the latest OTA?
I had flashed TWRP and have not been able to get the OTA.
I was surprised when I read we needed to be on the latest OTA to flash your ROM.
I have been holding off getting the OTA because I figured I would just flash a ROM to get the on the latest OTA is there a reason we need to be on it to flash your ROM?
Do you happen to have a Stock Recovery IMG and I get in order to get the OTA if I am going to need the OTA I will have to get it through stock recovery

Because its built from the OTA and I didn't include a boot image. I don't have the phone so I didn't want to risk bricking someone else's trying to flash a boot image.
In all reality it will prolly be 100% fine on the non OTA but I cannot say for sure... Havent tried it.
So nandroid, flash and report results and all questions will be answered.

I really wanted to hold out too. But I just cant anymore. especially with all the great developers getting on this device. I know the Custom ROM support will be great and it helps to really debloat the device. Anyway I wont be going without any protection. Im getting the Note 4 and then i will purchase SquareTrade's $100 for 2 years Insurance in case anything goes wrong. I still haven't voided Knox on my Dad's S5 or my Note Pro 12.2 because I'm so paranoid.

It's with newer kernel that's why it's for someone who really does not need root just working fine,would you happen to know where I can find 4.4.4 files and then to 5.0 LP files for odin? thanks for quick response.

I don't know where the files are. If you read that OP in the link i have you it will tell you that you need to download the nce file then use towel root to root. It will work. Then in that same thread you will be able to upgrade to LP.

I've seen it but I don't see stock NCE version can you show me where you see it? that would mean I can safely downgrade w/odin to older firmware "NCE" ?

Ahh i see it now second step 5 lol. In odin that would be under ap pda right ?
Another question is SD card needed for this? I don't see them saying anything about it in this thread hopefully.. the device won't be mine so I wanna keep it as stock and usable as possible but root will come in handy to remove bloat

Yes. Use the ap slot to downgrade. You do not need sd to do it. After you are rooted read the top of the op about how to get Flashfire. You'll also need busy box i think.

It's flashing in ODIN hopefully goes.. well will keep you updated thanks for your time at this hour! at least in EST timezone lol
what's funny is I tried to root with towel then kingroot now on boot shows custom when it's really not lol at least not yet or even root shouldn't show custom.
EDIT: rom loaded fine. I hope somehow it did not get re-locked to AT&T sim only though will have test my foreign sim to test
EDIT2: sim unlock seems to be fine my Polish (Play Sim) roamed on AT&T
No problem. It's barley 9:30 here in Texas. When you get ready to go up to 5.0 using the method in that thread make sure to set your screen timeout to 10 min. After flashing 5.0 with flashfire it took about 10-15 min for mine to boot back up.

Flashing! bunch of weird code on phones screen lol.
Kinda funny had the phone for few hours and already playing with it to make it better lol. Would you happen to know if there is any easy way to get extra languages? I will need polish if possible (more locale2) can do it but I think it only changes like half of locale so not everything is translated.

ok it appears now to be loading the rom stuck on AT&T logo like you said for you it took 10 min .I flashed the stock not deodexed and lolipop is here LOL that was easy process.
Last question and I will stop bothering you hopefully which root apps you use to make it faster? xposed is not that great yet on LP so I am not sure if it's worth using it for now.

I would stay away from xposed for now like you said. It's not fully compatible. I don't use any apps to make it faster. I just use titanium backup to remove bloat. But right now I'm running TMS 2.0 for my rom and it's blazing fast. And i don't have any problems with it. At first you would get media fc but he has a fix for it now.

Yepp that's what I am doing now removing bloat starting with AT&T apps lol.
Once again thanks for your time and help process went well.
I'd load the TMS 2.0 on it before you give it to whoever your giving it to. Lol. I don't think they would be able to tell a difference other than its faster. Just hide or remove apps that you don't think they should me with so they can't me anything up ya know.

Yea if it was for any of my friends I would prob flash that rom but I don't want to be bothered by her to often if anything happens lol. Btw I have Verizon Note4 and wow AT&T puts so much more bloat then Verizon who would have thought lol.
