[q] galaxy sii i900g root

i want ask about root.i dont understand about root.why must root my galaxy? please help me.i dont understand.

Hi!
Rooting your phone,you have the total control of the OS on your device,deleting the block put on it by the productor!

It gives you access to apps like Titanium Backup, AdAway and etc. Those apps require root permission and without one, Titanium Backup can't backup apps+data while AdAway can't block any ads.

Unlockroot.com Rootp

I used the root tool at unlockroot.com. I am fairly new to this. I couldnt get the root to work using the zergrush exploit for my specific firmware. I was granted superuser access so I am assuming it went well. I guess my main question is how do I manage/add roms to my N7000? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

This program doesn't work on the last couple versions of 2.3.6, the exploit was patched.
I don't see anyone really trying to find exploits in GB with ICS right around the corner

So does that mean that the root didn't work? I have super user access. I need a good way to manage rooms. Maybe I should just revert it back and wait on ics?

Check once your superuser access by installing any app that requires it like Titanium Backup. If everything is fine you should also be having CWM in ur apps and if u dont have it then flash the CF kernel specific to your firmware from this thread- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424997
After you are done with all the check then you can go hunting for the available roms on GB and leaked ICS in this forum - http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1349
Read the posts....and the features u get in each rom and flash the one you like
Explore and make the best out of your already awesome Note!

Thanks! That helped a lot. I ended up rooting with galaxynoteroot.com instructions and I am running criskelo ics rom now and its great.

Got permission to root and clean up stock rom or load custom.

I received the SGH-i957 for work and they told us not to add any weird apps. What I want to do is remove some the crappy AT&T apps to use less resources. I have rooted an EVO 4g and a HTC Arrive Windows Phone as well as my old HTC Touch Diamond. I have been reading the different threads and I am just curious what you guys think the best method is?

It really doesn't use more resources

I appreciate your response but I would still like to root it.

If your work said to not mess with apps then I wouldn't really root it.
If you don't care about that, then just follow the rooting thread. I personally like the kernel root method

I will go into more detail I guess. I want to backup how they gave it to me and run it custom, be it remove apps or a new rom. I am worried about some kind of privacy issues. With my HTC Evo 4g I could backup the original rom completely and then uninstall programs or install a new rom.

Flash twrp and make a nandroid backup then do your root process.
Sent from my SGH-I727 using xda premium

Yeah, I am definitely rooting it. It is ungodly slow with only a few programs on it and it keeps using at&t data even though I have removed all widgets and have very few apps installed. I know that know one wants to hear me say this but every time I use Android I dislike it more and more. I am sorry if I offend anyone.

Ok, I got permission from the boss to root and either clean up the stock rom, remove crap, or load a custom rom. So should I just follow the guide in this and if I have to run a custom rom use the on in this thread. Do I have to use the twrp and nandroid backup to make a backup? Or can I restore the stock rom buy using Method 2 after I follow the Method 1 in the root guide?

You can't flash on this phone but you can use Safestrap to fake flash. There is a huge thread on it in the development section for this phone.

Even works on new updated firmware At&t pushed out.
N900AUCUBMJ5
Kingo is updated http://www.kingoapp.com/. They have more updates coming.
Lot of people now trust this method and It is one of the only ways to root right now.
I am using this method and have been since it came out.
11/26/13 On a warranty replacement with latest Kingo Root and firmware.
No problems what so ever, phone is perfect so far.
This method is so much faster and works perfectly.
Confirmed and working great on AT&T Note 3.
Does not trip the knox counter.
(It does show Custom Status but you can change it)
No factory reset, and no wiping data !!!!!!
One Click and your done.
SUPERSU
After that you can install XposedInstaller and WANAM.
There are some kool things you can do with that.
For one > Make it show Official Status instead of Custom.
My phone is sicker now !!!!!!! SWEET

Wanam Xposed
I have rooted my SM-N900A with Kingo root. I installed Exposed. And I have installed the Wanam module for Xposed. Under Security hacks, I have checked Fake system status. However, on reboot, it still says custom. Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong? Or what else I might need to do?

Make sure Wanam exposed is checked off inside of xposed installer under the modules section that will fix your problem if not try updating installer then will work "you do know you need installer correct

Yes. I installed it first. Downloaded .apk from XDA. Then downloaded Wanam from Play store. I checked the wanam module in Xposed. Rebooted. Still said custom. Went in and unchecked Fake system status. Rebooted. Checked Fake system status. Rebooted. Still shows custom. Should I uninstall wanam module, reinstall, and check it in xposed before trying to make any changes? Thank you for your help.

I'm trying to think what I did but how I explained in post I swear worked for me cuz I had same problem sorry can't be more of assistance

Not a problem. You did help. You told me about activating the module in Xposed. But I did fix it. I uninstalled wanam, downloaded and installed from the play store again. Then I checked it in Xposed, opened wanam, checked fake status and rebooted. It works now. Thank you for your help.

Glad you got it working

Best bet would be upgrade your super user to pro and tell it to attempt to hang onto root when upgrading.

From what I heard 4.4 is several months away for AT&T users. AT&T is usually about 6 months behind the initial release of an Android version.
As for the root, King can be uninstalled simply bu going into settings for Super User. Once uninstalled the phone is returned to non-root stock. Then you can run the OTA once it comes. After the update, re-rooting will be the big question. Will Kingo still work? Who knows. Maybe AT&T will lock us down even tighter with that release.

Just to be clear, this is the forum for the S4 Active which is a different phone than the regular S4. That said, it really depends on which version of the S4 Active you have:
If you have the AT&T version (i537), then you can root, but you cannot install custom recovery due to a locked bootloader (stupid AT&T). You can still install custom ROMs using SafeStrap, but you are limited to TouchWiz based ROMs.
If you have the International version (i9295), then you can root and install custom recovery (the bootloader is unlocked), so you can pretty much install whatever you want.
I hope this helps, check out the Development section of this forum for more information.
