6-Wait until you see the upper left box in odin turns yellow
7-Click on start and don't touch anything until its all done
Congratulations! now u have a stock rom installed on your phone

I don't think it is possible to root your phone without first install any cwm recovery

This have been possible ever since I made the Odin file.... And you don't need root to use Odin.

How I manually installed the N7105ZHEML JB 4.3 update with root on my N7105

I had JB 4.3 already installed with root on my N7105, but last month came a new minor update called N7105ZHEML. This is for Hong Kong versions of the Galaxy Note II LTE. This seems a fairly exotic update, as I couldn't find much info about it and I had to scramble from dozens of various sources with more or less success. The update installed without a glitch via Odin, but I couldn't get the phone to re-root nor could I get back to my old NAND backup, as the phone didn't seem to restart properly after a restore. So you can imagine that I got slightly nervous...
Please note that this is for the N7105 (LTE version) and the Hong Kong Version of the latest 4.3 update, called N7105ZHEML.
It might work for other hard or software too, but I can't be sure.
Do everything on your own risk, as you can easily lose all your data or even worse, brick your phone if you don't know what you're doing!
Anyway, here is what worked for me, hope this helps somebody:
Check new N7105 firmware: http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/1/?model=GT-N7105&pcode=TGY
1. Backup using ROM Manager/NAND
2. Backup using Titanium
3. Download new ROM file, unzip it
4. Open Odin 3.09, Click AP/PDA and choose N7105ZHUENA1_N7105ZZHENA1_N7105ZHEML1.tar.md5
5. Make sure re-partition is NOT ticked
6. Turn off phone, then press Vol Down, Home and Power until boots
7. press Vol Up (Continue)
8. Connect to USB, Odin should turn blue
9. Click Start, wait till phone boots (takes really long time, incl. Media Database update)
10. Do not disconnect until PASSED! shows up in Odin
Install TWRP Recovery:
Check here for updated TWRP: http://teamw.in/project/twrp2/125
1. Open Odin 3.09, Click AP/PDA and choose openrecovery-twrp-2.7.0.0-t0lte.img.tar
2. Make sure re-partition is NOT ticked
3. Turn off phone, then press Vol Down, Home and Power until boots
4. press Vol Up (Continue)
5. Connect to USB, Odin should turn blue
6. Click Start, wait till phone boots
De-Knox, BusyBox and Re-Root with PowerBoxV2:
Check here for updated PowerBox: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2651601
1. Boot into TWRP Recovery: Turn off phone, then press Vol UP, Home and Power until boots (can be done without booting up after installing TWRP)
2. Remove SD Card, copy Powerbox_v2.zip to root of SD card
3. Install ZIP file from TWRP
4. Run PowerBox, choose only first option (DeKnox, BusyBox and Root), execute
5. Clear Cache and Dalvik
6. Reboot
If Superuser doesn't install or root doesn't work correctly:
1. First try to install SuperSU from GooglePlay
If this fails:
1. Download UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.93.zip for TWRP from: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1538053
2. Copy it to root of SD card
3. Boot into TWRP Recovery: Turn off phone, then press Vol UP, Home and Power until boots
4. Install ZIP file from TWRP
5. Reboot
Boot into Bootloader: Turn off phone, then press Vol DOWN, Home and Power until boots

[R&D][ROM] root acquired for Samsung j8, just need someone to make twrp and roms

I have found out a way to root the Samsung galaxy j8(SM-J810G something).
Backup everything
Unlock your bootloader
Download your correct boot.img from firmware. Mobi (bacically check your software build version)
Put it one your phone and install magisk manager and then patch the boot.img
Then copy it to your pc
Put the phone in download mode
Flash it
Go to magisk and set everything up
And you will have root
Don't forget to backup your data as I am not responsible for data loss
Now that we have root I request you guys to build a twrp or resurrection remix is rom for this, not forcing or anything but just if you have the free time then please do try
I'm happy to hear if anyone at least tried!!:laugh:
Also I think the architecture is somewhat similar to note 3 as when I select my device in the xda app then I get all note 3 stuff so I guess that might be a headstart!
Anyways do leave a comment if anyone tried making the recovery or resurrection remix is rom!! That would be great!!

Root aquired for J810Y and probably for all models.
You will need the stock Rom files from Sammobile for your phone model(BL, AP, CP, HOME CSC) and Odin on your PC.
1. Install Magisk manager on your phone.
2 Copy the AP file on your Download folder of your phone.
3 Open Magisk and tap Install Magisk then Select and patch a file. Go on Download folder and select the AP file to patch. After is done it will create a file in your Download folder named magisk_patched.tar. Copy this file back on your PC.
4 Run Odin and put your phone on Download mode. To get in Download mode shut your phone off, Hold pressed VOLUME UP + POWER, select Reboot to bootloader.
5 In Odin select BL, CP and Home_CSC from your stock ROM folder. In AP select the magisk_patched.tar file. Go on Optons and uncheck Auto Reboot. Hit START and let him finish. IMPORTANT, READ FIRST : After is done you have to restart the phone by pressing VOLUME DOWN + POWER and when the screen is black immediately press VOLUME UP + POWER. Dont let go until you are in Recovery mode, even if restarts.
5 select Wipe data/ factory reset and then Reboot system now. Might take a while to boot.
6 Set up your phone and install Magisk Manager again. It will ask you to complete the rooting will need to install few more files. Press OK.
WELL DONE. You have root now.

Is there any way to root without lose massage and call log?
