Hi I have just bought the chinese dual sim galaxy note 2 GT-N7102 mobile phone and i am desperately trying to root it but in order to root it i need to access odin download mode so i can flash. I have tried the standard way of accessing odin download mode which should be: after switching phone off press Volume Down, Home and Power button till warning screen appears and then press Volume Down to enter Download mode but ive tried it and it does not work! Any help would be much appreciated.
Does anyone know anything about rooting this model or accessing download mode on this handset?
here are some information on the phone to help you further:
chinese dual sim galaxy note 2
model number: gt-n7102
android version: 4.1.3
kernel version: 3.0.31
build number: JRO03C.N7102XXALJ1
Also i have realised this phone is wierd it uses mtk65xx usb driver for connection to the pc instead of samsung usb drivers.
Entering factory mode.....
In order to enter factory mode or also maybe known as odin download mode on the chinese dual sim custom made galaxy note 2 follow these instructions:
1. switch phone off
2. keep power button pressed and press volume up key and keep pressing the volume up key until you see download mode onscreen.
Its in chinese but you can pretty much understand the basic stuff like flashing from sd card etc.
Now you can flash custom roms, root etc...
NOTE: THIS PHONE IS CALLED iHKC HERO 2
Thank me if i was helpful!!!

I am also looking for ways to root my dual-sim N7102 (from China) phone. I tried many ways, but cannot put phone into download mode. Following your advice, instead of any download mode, I get into a menu with the following options:
Android System Recovery Utility:
1- Reboot system now
2- Apply update from SSD card
3- Apply update from cache
4- Wipe data/factory reset
5- Wipe cache partition
6- Backup user data
7- Restore user data
However, any option I press, it doesn't do anything and just shows the Android guy on its side with a red triangle and an exclamation mark. I cannot go any further.
I tried ODIN, but it doesn't detect the phone, same with Kies, doesn't recognise the model.
I also use adb reboot download from a command line, but same story, no download is possible.
Any ideas?
To root chinese phones you should try that chinese app that has a hat as an icon, don't remember the name now but it's made for the chinese market and it aurodetects your chinese phone and roots it. Just reply to this thread as i'msubscribed and will check the software name when I'm on the computer! talk later

Thanks, I am trying many rooting kits, but it seems I am always getting stuck when trying to put the phone in download mode, it just refuses to go into download mode. May be this is a special phone, not sure what else I can try, if you find that chinese root let me know, thanks.
Sure man just got it. Its called zhuodashi, download it from their website. You will need pdanet software for the driver and tethering. Please check my posts and see if you can help with my problems cause nobody is answering on this forum.... thanks

I got the way. I ordered the phone and I got a note that stated the steps and download links. Now since I dont have access to post websites here you will need to read it off the attachment.
1)Please open USB DEBUGGING and connect to your PC (Win XP,Vista, 7, 8)
2)Download Snappea from the download link in the attachment. Inside the folder there should be Snappea, Install it and connect phone. Snappea should ask to install an app on your phone, accept it and Snappea should Identify your phone.
3)Go to your Task Manager and Kill the Process called "wandoujai_helper"
4)Go to the folder you downloaded from the link and in the MTK6577 folder open the "MTK6577root.bat" file. The page should look green with chinese letters, Well just press ENTER, then click "Restore my Device." (No need to type password). Then it will reboot 2 TIMES, dont touch it.
5) Check the app drawer for a new app with a # icon. if its there then you got root access.
Now I would recommend to grab a superSU.apk attached and before STEP4, go to the folder and look for those 2 superuser apks and replace the superSU.apk with an english one I attached and then proceed to STEP4. Then it will install in english.
Just as a favor, if you know or learn how to install Clockworkmod or any working Recovery, let me know to [email protected]
It's probably gonna be easier just usingthe soft I stated above.

Thanks both, just tried downloading zhuodashi but McAfee killed it, didn't allowed me to download saying something about a Trojan virus. I will try the other method, thanks.
GT-N7102 backup Needed!!
I am willing to pay someone via paypal, for the person who can upload a full gt-n7102 backup. I bricked my phone trying to install CWM and it is stuck in a bootloop. Please someone just make a backup, may be M5D and just upload it, and send me an email to [email protected] I will pay $20 via paypal... You dont need CWM to make a backup.
Steps:
1)Turn Off Phone
2) Click and Hold the Volume Up+Power Button
3) Once in Recovery Mode, Press HOME
4) Then Backup
5) The "backup" should be in a newly created folder in the SDCARD, just zip it and send it to me.
Since this phone is not that popular it is important that we all keep a backup, online just in case, plus it will help others who bump into this issue. I have searched many forums but nobody has uploaded a full GT-N7102 backup.
Where is the donload link ???

Hi,
I think you might have the same problem as I faced. What i eventually figured out is that you need to press the "Menu" capacitive button instead of the power or home button to select an option in this "recovery" mode.

No, I gave up trying, but then realised the phone was already rooted when it came from China. Google Play was not working because the model was not recognised by Google so I couldn't install any apps. I then discovered a little program called APK Installer, which allowed me to install Titanium Backup and then I was able to uninstall all the chinese apps, and then install all other apps this way.
You can search the net for apk apps, there are several sites. The only problem is that I always have to use this method to install apps, but at least it works.

Hi guys,
i have a tricky problem.
I bought a used nexus S, without any hope to recover it.
This is the state at the moment (after installed SDK and drivers).
I think the device is in his standard state (all locked up, never rooted, stock rom)
It boot up and ask for a password to encrypt device (works : volume and emergency call).
If i connect usb, he tries to mount USB storage but he dosen't success.
I connect to pc and pc see an Android ADB device in the devices list.
BUT if i lauch 'adb devices' i dont see anything.
I start it in bootloader mode (Vol Up + Power) ... it starts.
BUT Vol Up and Vol down didn't work. I can only press power and return again in bootloader. (volume work if i normally boot)
In bootloader state i tried 'fastboot devices' and i didn't see any device.
So the state is :
Bootloader i think "broken" (volumes dosen't work and fastboot dosen't see device)
Debug usb disabled (adb don't see my device)
Device encrypted
Any idea ?
I think is a nice problem to let your brain works on :laugh::laugh:
Thanks in advice.
Daniele
Hey guys, there is anybody out there ?
I dont think that no one could try to solve this problem.
Thanks
Do you have the drivers installed onto your PC? You will need to get the adb drivers and fastboot drivers. Download Samsung Kies and that will take care of your ADB drivers. Click here: http://www.mediafire.com/download/5a7gou9droidi53/drivers.rar for your fastboot drivers. Hope this helps.
I've already installed drivers.
But i will give a try to the ones you linked.
Thanks you.

I'd suggest just booting Linux and doing whatever you need to do in there.
The kernel already supports communicating with the Nexus S, no need to mess with drivers like on Windows.
Hi everyone,
I'm trying to unlock the bootloader for root my Nexus S. I've tried to many tutorials inside the XDA Forum and outside to root and installing drivers. Unsuccessfully, i'm making this post to get any help.
Think the problem is that my power button is broken and when i'm in fastboot mode the phone is frozen because the vol + and vol - doesn't work. With that the phone don't show up when i run 'fastboot devices' and when i go to device manager i don't have any driver because the phone isn't recognize.
When the phone is on 'adb devices' works just fine and i can see the driver in device manager.
Can I disable my power button without rooting the phone? Anyone has a solution for this?
I appreciate any help.

You desperately need fastboot to work. Try a different PC to install the drivers.
Hey guys, today I'm back with another root guide. Of course it also shows you how to install recovery in case you don't have it. I will try to make the guide as easy to understand as possible, you know, for noobs. It's going to be a long day.
First thing, you can get any SuperSU zip that you want from Chainfire. I have the guaranteed one that I used to root mine. It depends on you. I will give you both links to Chainfire's thread and my file.
Requirements
-A PC
-Your device with USB cable(its battery level would better NOT below 30%)
-A stable internet connection
-Your brain(it can blow up, man, seriously)
A warning before we start:
-Files you download on your PC:
+Drivers
+Odin+Recovery
-Files you download to your device: Root(Chainfire's or mine)
Download all of them before you do anything. Extract Odin and recovery
The drivers are for Windows. I don't know if there are Samsung USB drivers for Mac or not.
Main Guide
1. Enable USB debugging on your device in developer options(to enable dev options, go to about phone, rapidly tap build number until it says that you have enabled it)
2. Open the drivers setup and install it on your PC.
3. Boot to Download mode on your device(Power off your device, then hold power and volume down button. When there's a triangle, press volume up.)
4.Connect your device to your PC via USB cable.
5.Run Odin on your PC
6.Uncheck Auto Reboot, click PDA and choose the recovery file.
7.Hit Start and wait until there's a PASS sign. Plug out your device and hold power button afterwards.
8.Hold power and volume up button to boot into recovery mode.
9.Tap Install, go to the folder where you put the root file in, then tap the root file.
10.Swipe to falsh.
11.Reboot, download Root Checker to verify
ENJOY!

Well, I tested it on the 8 or 9 inch whatever and it worked out. But there's a still chance that this won't work on models other than its own. You can check and send me your device's model and i'll figure out another way for you. But don't try this method, it will only make it worse.

Ok, you should try the other root zip file, because I posted 2 to make sure that you can do it all over again. Or you should first try rebooting your device again. I'm sorry for the inconvenience
Hello, i have an Alcatel Idol 3 5,5 (6045) and i decided to root it, so installed all that i needed (drivers, adb ..). But the problem is that i need to unlock the OEM thing, so i need to flash my smartphone to its original stock ROM, so i downloaded the Panasonic Eluga Switch one (which is a rebranded idol 3) and launched it, but the problem it seem that my device CAN'T load in download mode, i tried anything :
Uninstalling/Reinstalling all drivers
Executing the software as administrator
Executing the software with Windows XP compatibility mode
The volume + and - and USB method
The ADB method, it worked for anything else (rebooting in fastboot and recovery mode) but it won't work for the download one, it just reboot normally, i don't know why all is exactly correct, i tested with MTP and PTP usb modes, and in two differents windows, and nothing worked at all.
Please, is someone have the solution to boot my stupid idol 3 on download mode i would be grateful to him. Cordially.

Yes i know, but we need first to get in the download mode, ur indications helping us but the problem is that i'm not sure about one step :
Does he need to maintain VOLUME UP, DOWN and POWER at the same time while plugging the USB cable ? Or just maintain them, wait for the idol 3 to start and after plugging the USB cable before it load the system ? Thanks in advance. (excuse me for my poor english)
