:(:mad:.....Ok I tried for about a week with everything I know or read, and for the 1st time ever [long time modder] I am totally whipped on this nightmare!!
Running a Samsung Note 2 SCH-1605 model Verizon
Event log description: was on 4.1.2 stock/unrooted.....decided I wanted to upgrade all the way to Liquid smooth 5.1 or a ND7 4.2.2 ROM......Okay I root it with adams casual and install TWRP, loaded zipped file onto SD card with ROM 1605VRUF ND7 4.4.2 official debloated stock rooted and flashed, it wouldn't start!!.. stuck with bootloop!!..wouldnt go into recovery to wipe cache and dalvik....pulled battery /reinstalled battery and attempted to get into recovery, wouldn't go into recovery again = Horror!!... instead got the solid yellow triangle with red exclamation point!!!.... so I set it into download mode and use odin to flash the MJ9 bootloader... it took it!!... and it came to life as a working 4.4.2 ROM= Yeaaaa!!....However it wasn't rooted like it should've been!!..= FK,d*%*#~
Ok at this point, I either should've resigned to it being unrooted/stock and left it be!!.....But I needed and wanted it rooted to further set it up the way I wanted it!!....Thats when everything took a huge Dump backwards:eek:....I used adams outlers casual to root it, and didn't realize I should've either used toolbox 1.4.1 or Ghetto root....for some reason adams outlers casual program hung up mid way thru, and froze it, I reset the phone by the only means I had by pulling the battery....after I started it, I get the the Verizon message that I needed to go see them because of unauthorized SW on phone, again wouldn't boot into recovery or start/bootup....So at that point I decide its time to take it back down to stock 4.1.2 and start all over AGAIN!!...because Nothing except download mode was working and that almost didn't happen, it took several trys!!....Ok I odin it to 4.1.2 and found to my horror, that wouldn't boot/work and still no recovery usable either!!!....So I odin it with stock 4.1.3 and needed to reflash the bootloader with MJ9 and wholla, It came back to life!!....So I rooted that install,... using Ghetto root successfully!!...Now this is where Im totally stuck at now!!...I tried everything I can think of to install any custom recovery so I can not only upgrade but also be able to have better than the 3E stock recovery, Ive got safestrap installed but it wont boot into its recovery, I tried using odin to flash 3 different tar file recoverys, but it always ends as a fail!!!= Unsuccessfull load/flash Grrrrrrrr:mad:!!!.....tried CWM app, but the app fails again to load any custom recovery, and have busybox installed too!! I triggered the KNOX watchdog, cause I see a 1 when its in download mode now!!!...read that Im possibly now in a stuck/locked bootload mode forever because of KNOX!!!.....Which Im assuming is why I it will not allow a custom recovery installation, but only allow stock 3E = POOHYAA!!.......I installed and tried the disable Knox Disabler app= disables the notification, but does NOT!! actually disable KNOX itself= failure!!...WTF can I do to get past this custom recovery install problem so as to try to get back to upgrading my ROM??..... Is there a way to eradicate KNOX and free up my locked BootLoader which would solve all problems I believe!!!....Note!!...With toolbox 1.4.1 it has an option to create TAR files from Imaged files, where i might be able to use odin to flash those advanced ROM's, but I cant find any ROM's past 4.1.3 that are imaged or totally TAR,d already to use with odin!!!..... just Zipped files is all I ever see...when I look at the zipped files of potential ROM's, the core of the ROM file is imaged but the rest of the needed files for a successful install arent!!.... and thus prohibits that angle of conversion!!....I either need a way to get past my locked bootloader/KNOX to be able install a custom recovery and flash zipped ROM's normally or I need totally imaged ROM packages past 4.1.3 to convert to TAR files, or links to where these advanced ROM's are already converted to Imaged or TAR'd instead of just ZIPPED!!!.....I never had to ask for help, But I'm admitting defeat at this point and need credible solutions that'll work!!....This has always been a great community of givers and problem solvers, and I need ya'lls help badly....I'm hoping Ive described enough above so as the obvious suggestions dont come back that Ive already tried, and am hoping for fresh new ideas and solutions to getting past this...FKN Samsung/Verizon Hamstringing BS they shouldn't have imposed on this phone, I'm really pissed at them, along with about a million other furious:mad: customers who bought their phones with this BS on it!!
TY to all who respond with help...:fingers-crossed:
