How exactly do you do this since I don't know much outside just rooting my phone. I would want to know how to flash (using safest way available) a CWM Recovery without bricking my phone or my mom would kill me! I would want to flash custom roms and kernels here.

Do I need to have a unlocked bootloader for this? If so how exactly do you do it. Would it factory reset my phone?

I wanted to buy the mobile odin app
For ease of OTA updating with official firmware files and keeping root but I have read on the app store purchase page something about the boot loader having to be unlocked before you use it so iam not sure what to do .
I do not want it for custom roms just stock firmware I just like having the root access .Iam on 4.1.2 uk note 2 and would just like some advice on this before I purchase it thanks

There are some devices with a locked boot loader. The a t and t galaxy s4 does for example. However I don't think the note 2 does not. So u should be just fine using Mobile odin

I have managed to root my friend's Samsung Galaxy duos sch-i589. It is a gsm-cdma dual sim phone. But i could not find recovery specific for this phone?
Is there anyway I could backup the current rom? Can i flash a new rom through Odin? Would it give problems?

Hi, i want install custom recovery on my Spotmovitel M8403 but it don't suport CWM &TWRP... somebody tell me how i do it....... :what:

Usually you can achieve that by rooting phone. Then installing a custom recovery. You will find better answers in your device specific Q&As. Stock devices are not compatable with recoveries or ROMs. Even after your phone is rooted there may be limited abilities with phone.

Hi all i have rooted my tab2 and its working fine but does this mean my bootloader is unlocked? if not how can i find out if this is unlocked.
BTW Im using a 7inch wifi version p3110
Your boot loader should be unlocked, I do not believe any tab 2 devices were locked.

Bootloaders are not locked in Samsung devices as hTc and Sony, They just have a flash counter for flashing unofficial firmware, rooting, etc.
It can be reset in some Samsung devices using TriangleAway app by Chainfire.
This is not an entirely true statement. at and t and a few other carriers boot loader lock their tablets now. But the tab 2 is not one of them.

Well they are locked only as you say in Network Locked samsung devices
Thanks guys does this mean i can flash roms on this device now ?
Also a quick question, is flashing roms on tab 2 the same as a huawei phone like using CWM, wiping delvik cache etc.
Yes install cwm or your preference then install the ROM like other devices

Don't think you can flash any custom thing using your stock recovery
Anyway if you're rooted you can use apps like flashify/rashr etc.. But the safety of these apps I can't guarantee as I've gotten some posts that these kind of apps have led to softbricks in the past
So it means I can install custom rom using Flashify will be risky jeez. By the way can i flash CWM without need of pc and odin? My device is Samsung Galaxy Note 1 (SHV-E160S)

You can flash custom recovery by apps like flashify .make a backup/learn about how you can restore your phone beforehand just in case sh*t happens.
Can I flash custom recovery if the file is .tar?

Check out CWM rom manger that should be able to install cwm recovery.
When I check it out. Samsung Galaxy Note 1 (AT&T) only I did not see any other Samsung galaxy note 1 except AT&T version. Is it possible to install that? Even its not AT&T version?
