Which phone are u using? Did u obtain root? Do you have recovery installed?
If you do, I recommend you to use recovery to flash the rom.
I am using the droid 3 and yes I have root access. And im not sure about the. Recovery I am new to this stuff. I do have something called clockwork recovery. I even tried using rom toolbox an rom manager. But for some reason after I download a rom from either app it will ask if I want to boot into recovery I will push ok but it just reboots my phone shouldn't it boot me into recover?

If you have Clockwork, then you have recovery installed.
I've never use rom manager, instead, I BOOT into recovery and flash everything from there.
If you don't know how to boot into it, download this app:
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.siriusapplications.quickboot&hl=en
Then choose recovery. You MUST put the rom in the root of your SD card to flash it, not inside a folder.
What does that mean root of your sd card I haven't read about what that is or how to do that?

The issue is your using a recovery that doesn't allow for non official signed roms to be flashed.

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

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.

To remove Root:
This Root Remover has been tested with the Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7" P3100 (tested on jellybean)
REQUIREMENT: A rooted Tab 2.
•After you download this file, move it the root of your external SD card( /mnt/extSdCard ). This is the micro sdcard you insert in tablet slot. Your /mnt/sdcard folder is internal memory (not recognized in CWM recovery).
•Reboot into CWM (recovery) using Quick Boot app or
•Power OFF your tablet, disconnect from computer and restart in recovery (CWM) by pushing and holding POWER & Volume DOWN/LEFT buttons at same time. When Samsung Tab 2 logo appears, you can release power button but continue holding volume button for a few more seconds. Note: If you've done this on other Samsung devices, you will notice that it takes longer before blue CWM v5.5.0.4 text appears ... just be patient.
•Once you are in recovery, use volume button (UP/DOWN/LEFT OR RIGHT) to move around and POWER button to select an option.
Select install zip from sdcard. Choose Root_Remover file you already copied to root of sdcard.
When unrooting is finished, choose reboot system now from CWM menu.
NOTE-By downloading and using this file you understand and agree that you bear all responsibility for the use and anything it may do to your tablet.
DOWNLOAD-
Root_Remover.zip (h--p://www.mediafire.com/?ty54o6lah25w41d)
Replace (--) with tt.
For Root (tested on jellybean):
Use chainfire root its d best i have it.
U can google it or find it on xda search (instructions are provided there).
Dont use the above method to remove the chainfire root as it can be easily removed from its modified superuser application but it works as any other root and is superb!
Enjoy,
Kunal
Dont forget to hit the thanks button!!

Yeah brother sure,
It means that do not use the unrooting method which i have given you above to remove the chainfire autoroot (developed by chainfire-a.k.a {cf autoroot}). If you have a chainfire autoroot open its superuser application and there u will see an option of removing the root completely. Try it i personally recommend cf autoroot. Only the cf autoroot has the option to remove the root itself coz its superuser app is modified.
Gud luck

Hi Kunal
Hi Kunal.......
I had unrooted my Tab 2 P3100 (v4.1.1 - India) yesterday. I had also used triangle away as u adviced to set counter to zero. After unroot I wipe data/factory reset the Tab. After that then i had done factory reset from settings/backup and restore option in Tab.
But when I tried to update my tab using OTA by going under Software Update option in Settings it displays following message:
YOUR DEVICE HAS BEEN MODIFIED. SOFTWARE UPDATES ARE NOT AVAILABLE.
Then I checked for Device status it shows Device Status Custom. How to get rid of all this.
Plz help.
Hey amit,
U dnt have to use triangle away after unrooting its only for after u root ur tab. Btw dnt update to 4.1.2 it just suckss!! It only adds smart stay to ur tab which is NOT working due to a bug in this update i also rolled back to 4.1.1 after i did this useless update. And if u want to update then go to recovery menu (power off then power button + volume up) and from there do factory reset and wipe all cache and data dalvik cache also (it will delete evrythin on your tab)-DO THIS ONLY AFTER UNROOT.
And if the above one does not work then format, wipe cache and dalvik also from recovery menu and then use ota update.
If ota doesnt work then use kies-only if ur tab is unrooted.
Ps sorry for late reply

Hello,
Does anyone have a problem with cwm unrooting phone after reboot? The phone gives some options while I try to reboot to fix root but whether I pick yes or no it unroot the phone. Cwm was installed with rom manager app.

1) don't use rom manager
2) use other recovery that allows this to be disabled. Philz or TWRP
