But not for that much In your case, by and large, it's enough to get to another PC and put ONLY CWM - then all you can do

Is there any way to flash stock rom without the use if Odin? Computer won't recognize phone and I have to send iT back for warranty after trying everything I can think of.

Can you get to d/l mode or recovery mode?

It's not clear what state your phone is in but if you can boot and have root mobile odin should work.

You can try to flash the below official ICS Stock roms via CWM, then try to reconnect with PC to flash via ODIN for complete stock.

Note: These roms are deodexed, so it is not unmodified stock.
Yes I can get to d/l mode and recovery

Do you have the necessary drivers installed on the pc? Try installing Kies on the pc. It will install the proper drivers for you.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda premium
Yes i have installed keis i even downloaded the drivers straight from the Samsung website too. Everytime i connect my phone to the computer(any computer) it says usb not recognized/malfunction. I have read many threads about how to fix this but none have worked for me. Im thinking about returning this phone because its still under warranty but its rooted.

Works fine but i connect my phone to my comp for backing up files and flashing you know that kinda stuff. I wonder what could if caused it. I remember it started when I was using fb app and it suddenly just shut off and wouldnt come on. When I tried to charge it because it seem like it was dead it would keep vibrating over and over again just like boot looping. Even now if phone is off and I connect the charger it won't show the battery meter but automatically turn it self on. So I think I'll have to send it to att warranty.

Hmm...pick a free one. can't hurt. BTW it doesn't have anything to do with your virus checker does it?
Disable your virus protection. You sure you have your phone in download mode? Can your phone reach download mode?

I have the verizon version, and i wanna root, but its a hand-me-down s3 so i only have a lg usb. Is it safe for me to root without trouble? I've heard some people have had problems...
Samnsungs can be rooted by using the framaroot apk that can be found here on xda. No pc required. It's what I used to root my galaxy. It creates the Su binary and installs supersu automatically. Just install and run the exploit and your rooted.

Framaroot does not work for this phone model, you have to use casual or flash a stock rooted image.

You should be fine to root, a Samsung cable is preferred but any good quality USB cable should do the job.

You can use any cable as long as it is supported. I unrooted my phone not too long ago and then rerooted with my old LG charging cable (because my Samsung one charged too slowly).
It works on non-Samsung cables. I used the one from my car charger when I had to redo the whole process while on the road a couple of months back.

Kinda feel like a usb cable is a usb cable. I usually use a short cable when I am on my laptop, no problems!!

Does the Note 12.2 generate enough power to run self powered mass storage devices? or we have to use powered USB Hub ?
My note pro doesn't run any kind of mass storage devices ( I'm not rooted )
One says external power needed and the other one keep ticking .
my Note 3 run them with no problems.
any one with note pro pls test and advice back.

Which USB ptg cable do you have? I have a couple of different ones. I managed to get one of them to let me connect my dive computer and download, but not any of the drives.
I have one that converts the USB 3.0 micro B to a standard USB. It seems to be pretty good. It is a solid piece instead of a cable, but it doesn't work with anything, including my dive computer.

Did you try to use Mass storage before rooting? as one of the posters mentioned that root will give extra permission to fire mass storage with out external power? he said root and instal stick mount / folder mount and enjoy.
I'm afraid to root before making sure that it is not a hardware problem as service center in our area don't know Even that we can mount mass storage device.

I dont have any?? I rooted mine as soon as it was available. I was just making sure the answer provided before hand had taken into account that the original posters hard drive was not powered by its own power source. It wasn't clear from the answer I quoted beforehand. I dont see the point in any android device without root.

I agree root is a must but once root warranty will void so i need to make sure that device is free off hardware problems (which I'm not sure).
