Hi,
I am having trouble getting root to install on my note since the latest update, I can install high on android recovery ok but when to flash supersu.zip it does this successfully and once in the app draw thier is no supersu app or binaries installed.
I do not want to flash the german rom etc to get root bdcause I do not want to lose all the data and app data. and for some reason I cannot use titanium backup etheir.
Is there away without losing my data?

You can't use Titanium Backup because you aren't rooted properly.
Try backing up your apps and their data using Carbon, this doesn't require root, then do a factory reset.
Hi,
I've sorted root out by not using the cwm zip that is provided on this forum and just installed supersu from play store.
I never used carbon, I'll give it go next time.

So sorry guys, I couldnt find an answer through search. I rooted using Noxious Ninja's Windows program. Then unlocked bootloader, then flashed to CWM 6.0.1. I downloaded Beans Touchwiz ROM and I copied it to Root, now I rebooted in Recovery to install the ROM from zip but there is no Root folder, but I still have the Bean ROM in my Downloads folder as well. Can I install it from there or do I HAVE TO install it from Root directory?
So sorry guys, Ive been at this for hours LOL and have a terrible headache.
You do not have to flash from your "root" folder.
You may do so from your downloads folder perfectly fine.

thanks, now only if i can delete this thread.
I dont know if your still here, but immediately after installing the ROM from .zip the directions say to restore... I just click restore and it like wiped out the ROM I just installed and put my phone the way it was before!!! Do I not restore from Recovery after I install a ROM?
No you make a back up before you name any modification to your device. And if you bork it you can restore then. Don't restore unless your not happy with new rom or you messed something up

Quick? Along these lines...... if I just backup my data, could I flash a new rom then flash data, would that restore all my data, and settings, or would It not be compatable from rom to rom

Don't do that.
The data's not compatible, yes.
Edit: Sometimes the data is compatible, e.g. if the dev says so, in which case you can dirty flash over without wiping the data.

I feel like I successfully rooted my Tab2 10.1 GT-P5113 using odin. I have cmw recovery and flashed root file with no errors. After rebooting I have
the "#" Superuser app. It says SU binary needs to be updated and when I try it says installation failed! Apps that require root tell me that it cannot
access root. Used root checker and it also says I don't have root. What am I missing?
The same issue happened to me, You need to install SUPERSU from the market in order to get root access! =)

I just did that and I get the same thing. Used root checker to verify that I still do not have root. What else to check?
Reflash the root files. Find a supersu that lets you install itself by flashing in cwm. That way when its booted up its already got supersu installed and should work.
Plain old "superuser" worked for me, not supersu or #supersu. Its free in the play store.

Hello everyone, I'm completely new to androids and I recently rooted my phone with CF's Auto Root.
I've been scouring the forum for information on how to resolve my problem but none that really help me with my specific problem
I want to re root with clockwork but can't find anything on it
Can someone help me out here? Sorry for sounding really dumb, I just switched over from apple this stuff is a completely different world to me
Completly factory reset your phone n try rooting again . If it fails, you need to root using the same software as you did earlier

So with my original method I've rerooted my phone. How do I install clockwork mod on a rooted phone if it wasn't installed in the rooting process?
Take a look at the "goo manager " app and TWRP instead of CWM.
But CWM also has an easy install app if your phone is supported. Just see if it is or not and go from there either way.

Thanks for answering Pennycake.
I'm on Rogers Carrier OEM firmware right now and I'd like to flash the international firmware as to rid bloatware to my Note 2.
Which app would you recommend me to backup my rom with?
I've successfully rerooted, I found the problem with my phone. After it had been unrooted it needed to be rebooted in order for some effects to take change. So through the original method of CF-Auto Root, I rerooted my phone. I've installed the standalone ClockWorkMod app but it doesn't seem to make back ups properly. Through the app I hit back up and it shows the time stamp I hit 'ok' and my phone shuts off and starts up in recovery mode only not in ClockWorkMod but Android system recovery <e3> or something along those lines with only options to: reboot, install updates from adb, wipe data, etc.
What am I doing wrong?
Try installing the recovert img using clockworkmod before backups, because its not an app error, it is a user error. Using chainfires root method means no cwm. Using odin or lemme guess, you have a gs3, unified tool kit you get cwm.

What recovery do you have right now? If it's twrp (team win) do that go with clockwork mod. Twrp (goo manager) is by far (in my opinion) the best and user friendly. But it's your call. And you don't have to un root and re root to do it. You just have to flash the new recovery via bootloader and it will work. For rom choices I personally like jedi xpx and jellybam. With jedi xpx you can overclock the sh*t out of your note 2 to 1920 and it's still stable.
I've used many recoveries and twrp is my choice hands down. And yiu make back ups easier. So dont unroot again and re root. Just download the latest twrp and flash through bootloader. but to each their own

I'm on the Galaxy Note 2 i317m in Canada. Clockworkmod isn't letting me back up, everytime I get the box with the timestamp to create a back up I hit 'ok', my phone reboots into recovery mode and its the stock recovery, so no option to restore. Also when my phone's model isn't listed in the clockworkmod flashing menu within the app. Is my phone not supported? The N7100 is the one listed when it asks you do confirm a phone model.

When I boot into recovery it says is Android System Recovery <3e> and below are listed a few options, reboot, wipe cache, install from adb, etc
Then you dont have twrp installed. And by the sound of it you dont have cwm either

I rooted my phone and installed jellyBAM rom, I later tried to install supersu from the app store and completely lost root access. Now i tried flashing supersu but i still cannot get root again. I removed supersu and tried flashing superuser but im still missing root. Is their any-way that I can regain my root access with your app because I would prefer to not have to do a factory reset. I know that jellyBAM has a built in superuser that's build into the settings.apk, Im assuming that this is the problem.

It is in fact a 4.3 rom, do you have any ideas on where the setting may be?
It originally worked with its built in superuser. That superuser has practically no settings.
It just started working randomly.... I did not change anything so i do not understand it so thanks anyways, i guess we will never know what made it misbehave...
In setting -> developer option ->root access ->checked (Apps+Adb) then try again..
I hope this will help..

Hi- I got into recovery (twrp) and wiped as usual, and installed cm13's latest, and open gaps mini package. I had been on xenon xd 5.1, with full root access. Now, although I can still get into twrp, the apps that need root can't get access, and I have been unable to get SuperSU to update the binaries using either method. I would appreciate any help on this.

Well, I have achieved root access, but if I let SuperSU update the binaries, it never goes past the boot screen. I can dirty flash CM13 again, and I'm back to having root access and a working phone with all the apps. Just don't let SuperSU update.- cc
