[Q] Need root for Galaxy Mega 2 - General Questions and Answers

I have tried every root method except for vroot or anything that doesn't exist on xda
Cause one click root sound too good to be true (Well except if it's on xda)
I have waited a month for root
Why no root,no forums,no support for this device yet?
(Well except there is cf auto root for older version)
I think i have reply too much asking for root
I decide to create new thread interest
What should i do?
Wait a just a little bit more?

I have already done it again before making a thread
It's just not work
Well there's error something like : Can't write to x
It's can't write to cache or nand i can't remember
Also! my mega 2 is in the latest version and the build number is different from cf auto root file
But it's written that it's may work and there's a high chance that it will
CF auto root build number : KTU84P.G750FXXU1ANI1
My build number : KTU84P.G750FXXU1ANJ1
I can flash back my stock firmware so it's not write permission problem

Hello, my phone is SM-G750F not SM-G750H.

Some posts before there were a post with H not F. So i got it wrong. No matter
Use CF-AUTO-ROOT for SM-G750F instead
What the error shown up in ODIN?
Its the same way i described before. First flash the ANI1 firmware for your region and then use CF-AUTO-ROOT

hi,
well, this matter i've missed and just noticed now, and seems it is the cause of the failed install.
the build numbers for the two phones i was trying to root are G750FXXU1ANGD and G750FXXU1ANJ1 . But when i've just checked again your post , the build number that you mentioned is G750FXXU1ANI1.
I'm downloading now the proper (G750FXXU1ANI1) from sammobile , and going to flash both of the phones and then try to root them with the file you showed above , hopefully it will work !.
thanks alot LS.xD

KIES uninstalled, USB debugging enabled in the android rom
if you did both try using latest ODIN 3.10.6
I'm actually looking for a matching "PIT" file
EDIT: I found a valid fix for the cache.img problem. I will prepare the needed files for you and be back soon
@numan8 I need to know if you run Win 7/8/8.1 - 32 or 64bit

SOLUTION:
I extracted the recovery from CF-AUTO-ROOT and converted it to ODIN flashable recovery SM-G750F
First flash the recovery.tar.md5 and then flash the CF-AUTO-ROOT you already downloaded.

[Deodexed & Zipaligned GT-I9305 ZHALI8] for GT-I9305 [ONLINE]

Based on Latest firmware version : PDA:LI8 / PHONE:LI2 / CSC:LI6 (TGY)
Just like ausdim's deodex package, this is not a full ROM, it will install and replace only your system/app and system/framework folders so please make sure you are on the above stated firmware before continuing.
Tested on my ZHALI8 based GT-I9305 (TGY Hong Kong unit).
You need to have CWM Recovery installed.
Link:

Shoutout to ausdim's zipalign and deodex script, props bro!
Hi is that able to use on my ZHALI7 (HK Device) ?
Yes, it is.

That's the method I used. make sure after first odin flash, you let your device reboot twice before u apply cwm tar file.

我按照之前给的连接的办法,在odin界面刷入cwm包,之后重启机器,结果进入的还是3e的界面。之前机器到手的时候是li7,后来连接wifi之后,强制升级了。
Sorry one more question HK brother,~

You can use this package on ZHALI7, however it will not update your modem/csc/boot to ZHALI8. I don't think it's a major problem though, as it is just a software package modification and it should work properly.

Same here. Same as Asiafalcon Talking about. After flash the recovery.md5. Then reboot into the recovery mode, found that it still show me 3e.
I haven't give up so I tried the way from the galaxy note 2 topic from this forum, used the recovery and root file which is for the note 2. I though it may be the same thing since both of them are also using 4.1.1. Unfortunately, I've failed flasing and popup the yellow triangle on my i9305.
Finally, I tried to using the i9305 root/recovery file to flash once again on it and it can boot up well. At the moment, I found my phone can not detect my micro sim even if I've the newone. Does any one know how to fix this? Do I need to re-flash the original rom (with re-partition from odin) once again?

I'll state carefully and again, do not ever re-partition the device UNLESS 1) you have a backup EFS copy and 2) you are sure that the partition PIT file you are using is for i9305/T AND your specific model (16/32/64 gb), and nothing else.
I'll also re-elaborate my steps - after you have first flashed the Odin rom , make sure you install the CWM through odin AFTER at least two reboots. 3e will be gone once you do so.
Re: Kazumi
So the above step could fix my currently problem? Can I get back the 3G signal and detect my micro sim as normal?

should be, unless the device's NV data area (IMEI) is corrupted. Otherwise, I would suggest you to reflash the official rom first and check whether your device has a signal or not.

[ROOT/CWM-TOUCH] Galaxy S2-Plus i9105

I DO NOT OWN THE DEVICE SO I CANNOT TEST SO PLEASE TEST AND REPORT !
I have got some request to port CWM/root this device i have tried my best to port it from galaxy grand duos as they are of the same SoC's and somewhat the same specs !
So if any doubts you can ask freely !
The guide is same as this ---> Click me !
Instructions :
-Download CWMtouch-i9105_chotu.tar.md5.zip from here ---> Click me !
-For Indian firmwares download this recovery image ---> Click me!
-Extract it and flash it with odinv3 (you can download it from guide link attachement)
-Got to cwm by vol up + home + power button ..
Done !
How to root :
Download Superuser app from here ---> Click me !
Flash it seeing the guide link i gave !
Please any one test it so that i can make changes or finalize !
CREDITS :
Chainfire for amazing SuperSu app
Press thanks if i helped !
FAQ's :
Q. I am getting stock recovery instead of CWM touch recovery.Why is that ?
Two reasons : 1. If your firware is updated through KIES the odin cannot reach the block in which the recovery is there.
Solution : Flash any Stock Firmware through Odin and then flash the recovery.
2. Random issue is spotted where the recovery does not flash after the above solution too.
Solution : Uncheck auto-reboot. After Odin says PASS remove battery and re-insert it, Now you can enter CWM !
Q. Why is my download not ending even though md5 is verified?
Solution : If you are using the USB cable which came with the phone please change it , it is damn slow !
Q. COM port is not turning up !!!!!!
Solution : Update your ADB driver or install it properly.
Q. All of the above is correct,then why the hell odin is not flashing the recovery ?
Solution : Try flashing through odin3 v3.07(try googling it for download),then too you can't get it right then the hell demon is in your mobile he'll not let you do this

You must be missing something or doing something wrong.
What version of ODIN do you have ? I have used v3.07
Have you enabled the "USB debugging" in android's Developer options ?
Give us more details on the exact procedure/steps that you are doing.

Not sure if I did something wrong, also I had Odin v3.04 I downloaded/used Odin v3.07 afterwards, but that still did not work.
These are the steps I did.
1. I downloaded the ABD drivers
2. Downloaded the recovery from this thread
3. Turned off my device
4. Went to odin mode
5. Connected my usb cable to my mobile
6. The mobile got detected through Odin3
7. I selected CWM through PDA
8. Clicked start
9. Waited till it went succesfull
10. Turned my phone yet again off
11. Tried to go to CWM, but instead I went to Android system recovery
Also dev. options were enabled.

OK, here are some other things that may help with troubleshooting:
- I have the i9105P model (with NFC)
- The drivers installed from KIES tough this should not make any difference.
- The firmware version installed on my phone using ODIN is I9105XXAMB2 downloaded from here: http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=GT-I9105P
For the non-NFC version I cannot see a similar firmware version but I see that there is an I9105DDAMB2 version built on 12 Feb
Maybe chotu222 is can tell if the firmware revision on the phone should make any difference.

After rooting your phone with kingo.. what happens.? Does it say rooted successfully or you get any error?
If it says rooted successfully then install supersu from play store, it should work

just do a factory reset
And after that try rooting your phone
(I always factory reset my phone whenever I am having problems with it. That's why I suggest it to many users )
PS: I m not 100% sure if it will work or not but you can give it a try
=> which exploit u used to root using framaroot? Gandalf works for Samsung

No it will not downgrade your phone.. it only restores settings.
If you want to downgrade your phone, you will have to root it and then have to flash strck firmware

No need of root to downgrade! Just download the previous firmware version from sammobile.com and flash it with ODIN.

Hmmmm you don't need root access to flash using odin (I came to know about it just now thanks to @sanjay.addya )
So you can just download the old stock firmware and flash it properly using odin.

Shouldn't be getting stuck there on 3.10.6 Odin. Have you got the drivers installed? I assume you have. Side loading might work, however it doesn't seem to function properly in our recoveries yet. At least not for me.

Odin is the only way.
Try these troubleshooting steps for a failed Odin flash.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s2/general/guide-t2345831
Odin can still flash the device while in the "encountered an issue, connect to Kies" screen.

There should be a 3 letter code that represents the country/region/carrier for each firmware version.
Find the newest version for your model number that matches your country/region/mobile carrier.

I usually recommend a version of Odin that was released shortly after the device was released because those versions were updated to be compatible with the device, whereas newer versions of Odin are less compatible with devices that were released a year or more before it.

As long as what you flash is for your specific device model number and your region/carrier you should be fine.

The custom ROM that you tried to flash, was it for your model number? Or was it for a different device?
Try different USB ports, try a different PC, try a different cord.
If all else fails, try finding a copy of your device's PIT file and flash that in Odin along with the stock firmware. Place the firmware where it goes then place the PIT in the pit tab in odin, make sure the "re-partition" option is checked in Odin then start.
I DO NOT PROVIDE HELP IN PM, KEEP IT IN THE THREADS WHERE EVERYONE CAN SHARE

Hello, This could be kind of weird but
Download the Unified Android tool kit
Do a copy of the frimware you want to flash
remove the .md5 extension from the file name of the new file
the image file should now transfer into a zip file
extract it in the Unified Android tool kit INPUT folder
Run the ToolKit
it will do an update check
now type 99 and press enter
a list of choices will appear choose the " create tar files from image files" it's maybe number 8 as i remember
now choose to make a separate tar files of each image file
once done , the tar files will be placed in the OUTPUT folder
try to flash System tar file alone without the other partitions.

System.IMG is the largest file to flash so it would be the longest to flash
