sprint note edge root?
sorry i have been searching everywere to find a root for the note edge. I recently moved from verizon to sprint for the unlimited data. i was using over 30gigs a month and getting raped by verizon. I build the upgrades on cell towers for pretty much all the carriers and have been doing the rv way of life due to them moving us around like crazy. I got the sprint note edge a few days ago and really want to be able to use wifi without all the extra charges and using there hot spot. ive rooted in the past with the droid phones when i had unlimited data with verizon ( i got screwed out of that too) can someone please help me? is there a root file out there for the new 5.1.1 update that i can use odin to flash? if so does anyone have any good ideas on a hotspot app i can use? (its been quite a while since ive used one)
Thanks in advance for any info.

About to flash
Love my note edge also....I am a girl and cant wit to be able to use different roms..mostly for themeimg

Yea, custom roms and note edge arent really a good subject around here... There is NO dev support, and the carriers want us to forget about it.
As far as root goes, lemme try the old style root tonight, I'll get back to you... I been dying to reroot and hotspot again.

Give me a holler if you get it rooted.. I tried it all and there is none. A custom kernel is needed and Samsung has yet to release the kernel source code... SO... Don't hold your breathe brother.

Well, with all the problems I'm having with 5.1, I'm half tempted to go back to 4.4.4, but... Dropping phone calls sucks. I might just go back to my note 3, I'm really leaning that way lately

Flashing Skyrocket to T-Mobile

Ive heard that you can flash the Skyrocket to T-mobile, and would be able to access it's 4g capabilities. I was just wondering how this could be done. Or even how to flash the skyrocket so I could use it on tmobile. I would like to use this experiance to help get me started in the android world... I was IOS user on and off and just bought this phone but, I have not been able to use it bc its locked. Any thoughts or ideas, would be much apperciated.. I am a new android rooter and barely know anything so please excuse me for future reference.

You have to pay to unlock the phone. Do some research in the development section on how to flash roms and custom recoveries. Youtube the crap out of rooting skyrocket. And to use 4g you have to have the right data plan and proper apn settings. The people here will help you but you have to tke the research initiative and show them your willing to learn. Or if you get too stumped pm me and ill try to help

Verizon Galaxy Note 10.1 SCH-i925

Does anyone know how I can root this device? It is locked to Verizon, but if the custom roms work on it, and standard rooting works with it, then all is well.
I received this as a bogus ebay purchase. I bid on a N8000, but received this SCH-i925.. For the most part, I just want root, and am not overly concerned about custom roms... I just don't know what the differences with this model is from any of the N80** models are..
Thanks for the info guys!
Well, the ExynosAbuse exploit worked for root, now I need to figure out how to add the Bell APN info to it.. anyone know how to enable the option to add APN info to the SCH-i925? Or if I can use the N8000 recoveries and ROMs out there?

The Verizon tablet is LTE, the 8000 is 3G so you'll probably brick your tablet if you use anything but a ROM for an LTE tablet. I'm surprised that the Exynos Abuse exploit worked since Samsung supposedly included it's patch in the version of Jellybean shipping in the Verizon LTE tablet.
Where did you get your verizon note verizon keeps telling me they are not out yet

Damn man I have been looking for this tablet.
I'll very happily buy this off you and give you my N8000....I've been trying to get my hands on the LTE version...
You should have said something over a week ago. I am in the process of fighting with the eBay seller I got it from. He is trying to rip me off for the tablet.

How much did you pay for it? can you give me the link on ebay where you bought it from? I have been looking all over waiting anxiously to get my hands on that verizon note 10.1. You already sent it back to him or is it still with you?
Are you kidding me? I'm possibly down what I paid for the tablet, and you want a link to it? Send me $700, and I'll point you in his direction.

The note 10.1 LTE cannot be used with another carrier in the US. Verizon won't unlock it. They say it is already unlocked so that you won't bother them anymore.

This is classic Verizon Crap, hereinafter referred to as "Satan". I don't know what deal Samsung's GT-N8020 made with the devil in the US but it is clearly only being served as a SCH-I925. I will be watching , listening and offering what ever I can to help restore order to my newly purchased Note 10.1.

Soft unbrick Verizon I925
Hello guys...
First of all, let me say a big thanks for all that hard working on finding a way to unlock
It seems I have soft bricked verizon's I925 tablet while trying to add those apn's and make it work outside the US. I used CAUSAL to get it root and then I used the apn editor which made the damage.
Since there is no bootloader hack yet, I wonder if there is any way I can restore it back and have it working in any way.
I have tried via odin's utility and stock roms for N8010, but I get a fail. Does anyone has the stock verizon's rom?
I will greatly appreciate any kind of help.
Thank you in advance,
imor
UPDATE: Soft unbrick Verizon I925
Guys here is a small update on my case.
Good News: The soft bricked I925 is once again working with certain limitations. I had mariosraptor (post credits to him) install a clean non verizon N8020 version on it.
Bad News: Despite the fact that sim card gets recognized, it does not gets activated. Another possible problem "haven't yet figured out" is GPS.
Things to clear out...
I really don't know if I had the bootloader changed while trying to recover it at the beginning. In Odin's download mode, the model refers as GT-N8010 and not as SCH-I925. Members can validate thought...

imor, I seem to be having the same issue, as I have also bricked my tablet. I originally rooted about two months ago using casual, and the OTA update screwed it up today. I am pretty new to this and not sure what needs to be done. I can only get my tablet to ODIN mode, and able to connect it to ODIN on my computer, but I have no idea what I am supposed to flash to the device. Any help is extremely appreciated.
So I am willing to help out and make a stock recovery and see if you restore it on your Verizon see if all your problems go away I will do this later tonight

Read through imei backing up, casual root method, and how to root your galaxy s3 and more for generalized flashing methods. If you have any questions after reading through those feel free to ask.
Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk 2
Your best way to root and unlock the bootloader is the Casual method. It roots, unlocks and even installs a recovery like CWM or TWRP. However read up a bit. It's always good to get somewhat knowledgeable before barreling into something.
Make sure to read and understand the "Comprehensive IMEI/EFS Backup" section (on the link that BadUsername provided). I've never had an issue with this but I read sob storied all the time about people who didn't back up and had issues.

[Q] SGH 1497 (at&t 4g version) help updating

I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10 .1 inch AT&T 4G SGH 1497 I am unable to use several features because of the 4.1 .2 apk update but more importantly I was curious if anyone was successful in installing a 4.2 .2 to this version of the tab 2 and if anyone was able to get everything working solid? I am very interested in getting this rooted but I don't want to screw up the 4G capabilities and take it off the AT&T network if anyone has any tips links or maybe I missed it in the forums on how or if its possible I would be greatly appreciative. also if you know anything about the WiFi Bluetooth problem I have another post that is directly related to this? thanks for Reading
I had no issues rooting and installing twrp/cwm, but I hard bricked one trying to install AOKP. CyanogenMod gave me the dreaded error 7. From what I understand, this hardware is nothing like the other TAB 2's. It's not looking too good lately. Imight get impatient before long and do my own de-odex and mod the systemui as well as other things. MY tab 2 is just not my main device so I haven't put allot of effort into it as yet. Someone is going to need to soon or we'll all just upgrade to something else that is better supported by dev's. I wish us luck on this device. I have googled to high hell and haven't dug up anything. Couldnt even find an odin file for 4.1.2, so I captured that one while i could and put it up for d/l. Maybe that will help someone dev on 4.1.2 at least.
Hello,
I'm glad I found this post. Can either of you provide a link to the file needed to root the AT&T 4G SGH 1497, I can't seem to find it anywhere. Thanks for any help.

I too am in this dilemma. I just purchased a Tab 2 and want to root to remove the AT&T bloatware. SGH-I497. I found this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2101044
But since I don't know when 4.1.2 was rolled out for the Tab 2, I don't know if this root method is valid. Help please.

One small mistake on my part... I have the wifi version. Changed my profile pic to Underdog (I'm such an idiot).

Kitkat is the only way for locked Samsung Note edges.
I wish I had read up on this phone first, not having root sucks, it's my damn phone. I'm not renting it or leasing so wtf. I also wish I had been learning this **** myself on all the other phones I had because there don't seem to be many people wit it or working on it. The s6 and edge variant were to close to coming out for this phone to really take off. I just liked this more than the s6's.
Service menu
Hi I am new to this forum but have been reading it for a while. Has anybody tried to enable hidden menus or service menu with the temporary root? Thank you, I will also try now.
Root Via stagefright
Hi all,
After a long time reading XDA forums I finally have an itch to post. Being thoroughly disappointed in the lock down of Verizon phones preventing root Ive heavily considered ditching Verizon and my UDP until Today!!
I've been reading up on the stagefright exploit and got to thinking how this could be used for good rather than bad. If this exploit allows the attacker to gain access to modify system files it would seem they have achieved root. Is it possible to use this exploit to get root to the Verizon customers with locked down phones?
Thanks in advance
I have done everything on every post telling me to downgrade from lollipop to 4.4.4 but no avail Downloaded firmware for my Verizon Variant at SamMobile, and both failed in Odin....What the powers that be do not tell you is that the exploit was patched in the lollipop update from 5.0.1 to 5.0.1 and it was pushed to most phones last month and some installed automatically and some deferred hut t he notifications kept coming and forced you to install at a certain point I deferred for 2 weeks and finally it installed ....So note to all other VZW edge users...The exploit they were using to gain root has been closed since the newest update....
