Hello.
I used the Toolkit to root my Note 2, and I had to use option 4 on the rooting menu, Install Custom Recovery, Install via Recovery to get it to work. I tried several times via the Odin tool and Twrp recovery, and the phone kept booting into Android Recovery instead of Twrp recovery.
I finally used Odin to flash back to stock ROM that I got here, but, along the way, even though the Toolkit was able to connect to my Note 2, I get the Hardware ID missing, and I cannot connect to it any longer like I could after I installed the initial drivers.
Anything I can do and stay rooted?
Change usb ports or restart your device. Mine did it last night and I fixed it by doing both..
I have the same problem.
Changing ports and restarting in most cases didn't help and only in few cases I managed to access files on the phone via USB.
Any other suggestion how to solve this?
don't use windows..

I was able to gain root back using the toolkit. I flashed stock rom image I believe the ROM from the factory then flashed back stock recovery. Went back in after I updated and re-rooted to flash the triangle away. Now I need to unroot and after speaking with Sprint Rep on phone and trying a few things they advised me to take it to store to let them try it. I believe ALL of my problems started when I tried to use Mobile Odin Pro to flash the latest update to LJC (should I have been on stock recovery?). It started to flash then stopped and went into CWM recovery which is the recovery that the toolkit flashed. I for some strange reason was going to flash the update from there except I didn't have it in the right place on my sd card (couldn't access it GOD I'm a Dumbass!). God help me cause I'm too stupid to even understand what side loading is let alone how to do it. If some kind soul would take pity on me and pm me I could get a handle on the differences between HTC and Samsung. Anyway need to unroot now. Oh I keep seeing in the flash counter saying 1 but I'm on stock rom with stock kernel and stock recovery how do I get it to zero. Using triangle away. Anyway to check counter with stock recovery?
OH yeah does anyone keep getting "Internal Error Code 1500" in addition to the hardware id is missing?
Thanks to everyone that takes time to help idiots like me. I promise I CAN learn.

Thank you...Unlike user: dstenc, the above procedure fixed my issue. As has been the case many times, XDA helpful users to the rescue!
:laugh: :good:
Just to report that for now I've found woraround. I've installed old drivers 1.4.103.0 and now both Kies and file access works.
Still looking for final solution with latest drivers.
Could you walk me through your fix?

Hi dstenc,
Would you be so kind as too help me do what you did? I don't have kies on my pc, did you get the old drivers from the s3 forum? I would love to give it a shot.
Thanks for any help

I don't remember link. I googled so you might try that way.
Just FYI, even with older drivers I have sporadic Hardware ID Missing error, but far too less than with the latest version.
I'm posting this to keep it to the top of this board.
This is my second Note 2 in 2 weeks. I returned the first one because it stated Hardware ID missing, so within my first 2 weeks Sprint gave me a new one thinking that it was my phone. While at the Sprint store, and not yet rooted, we installed the unit and removed the unit 15 times to see if we could get it to have the Missing Hardware ID to pop up, it DIDN'T pop up once, so I thought I was good to go.
I came home and did the common root method that uses Galaxy Note 2 Toolbox. I IMMEDIATELY started getting the Missing Hardware ID again.
So now that we have it localized, what could be missing or creating a problem from the root procedure from the Galaxy Note Toolbox 2???
What I find really strange is that many are not experiencing this problem or they are just living with it.
I even tried the USB Switcher that appeared to install and does switch between Mass Storage and MTP, but although my PC makes the upward noise that sounds like it is installing and recognizing the USB Mass Storage, it doesn't end up recognizing it. It was ZATTA's build but he said it didn't work for his Galaxy 3 or Note 2 either.
Will anyone find a cure????
This will be no fun to have to deal with for the next 2 years.
Chime in PLEASE!!!!!! Even if it's only to insult me, I don't care if you have a cure.
Regards
Dave
if you do Google search, it's a known issue. From what I read, it's a driver issue. Some have had luck using the older Samsung USB drivers. You have downloand them, and install, and have your PC completely disconnected from the internet before plugging in your GN2 after the install. Appaarently the drivers on Microsoft's servers are bad; may be the wrong device.
I've done this, and still have the issue. I just find I don't have plug and unplug the USB cable as much.
What I have seen, the PC does connect to the GN2. It just doesn't recognize it as a storage device. It wants to use it as a modem, probably from the tethering capabilities with a USB OTG cable.
It may not be so much that it's not wide spread, but more that not everyone uses the GN2 as storage device or connects it their PC.
I dont think this is all due to Windows issue. This is what i notice before and after root.
If you have restore to Original Stock ROM, you will notice that your device doesnt encounter this issue.
If you have rooted your device Custom ROM or Flash CMW (this resulted as Binary Counter increased), you would have Hardware Missing Id issue. Somehow the MTP is not working.
If you have Flash your device with a pre rooted stock rom, there is no issue at all until you flash CMW where flashing increase counter.
How i notice this, i have root/unroot my device like 20 times since i got my device.
The issue is here is more of where Binary Counter Increase, in Windows 7 you would face Hardware ID Missing issue. Restart and connect to other USB port will not work.
Some how we need to no let the Binary Counter changed and Triangle Away is only useful if you want to return you device to original state.

Yep I think you may be on to something. Because when I rooted I tried both TWRP and CWM and then I had to go back to stock to get to apply the LJC update. Ever since I have had the chameleon error and Handsfree activation issues. Oh my counter always says 1 and I can't remove it with triangle away. I think it says custom binary yes and the counter says 1. I am using a laptop with Windows 7 and it now recognizes the device just can't stop the errors on start up.

Have you tried flashing stock firmware COC2 with Odin over your current installation with just a CACHE wipe before hand? Are your driver's working correctly on your windows 7? Try the Samsung driver's listed here on xda.
yes i´m very sure that my drivers are working correct, also i have not yet flashed my stock firmware, because i thought i could get the MPT app on my phone running again without flashing the firmware, Many Thanks
PS : I think it is ES Task manager that have killed the mtp app from running in the background on my phone
Hello everyone
So, this is my problem here, I got my G4 last week, rooted it to debloat, followed the instructions I found here on XDA, and it was working as a charm.
The problem came when I wanted to change the (micro) SD card to another phone, I took the back cover off, took out the SD card, and a warning message about the SD card might be damaged came on screen.
So I turned off the G4, after I was ready to put back the SD, tried to power on the phone again and the error message appeared.
"Security Error, Auth Fail #9" and then it just won't boot.
Hope anyone can help me.
I was on stock Telcel Firmware, had rebooted the phone several times before with no issues so far.
Never mind, I just reflashed stock firmware found
here: http://devtester.ro/projects/lg-firmwares/
then followed this steps
Tutorial: http://devtester.ro/projects/lg-firmwares/install.php
So, after a clean flash, it booted again, as Iv'e had it for just one week, nothing was lost.
Hope this helps anyone else facing this strange problem.
By the way, if anyone know something about the possible cause for this malfunction, I woud really appreciate you sharing info.
Cheers!
i Have had the same problem i was woundering if you could please walk me through the steps on how you fixed yours.
I recently just bought a new LG G Stylo with MetroPCS. this is my first time being with android so i took it upon my self to root the phone and see what all i could do with it. Everything worked fine for a couple of days then i tried to reset my phone and when it tried to come back on the lg logo cane up and it said Authentication fail #9. I try to factory reset the phone but it goes back to the same screen. I can not put the phone in download mode and my computer does not detect that there is a phone there. If there is anyone who can help me please it will be greatly appreciated.

How can be LG G4 H815P be rooted, have read many tutorials, but no one is for the variant "P" (Telcel).
Thanks!!!
Hello!
Well, I found out the source of the problem on "error 9".
As it happened again a couple days after posting the thread.
In my case, when I uninstalled LG apps, such as music and video apks, "error 9" would come up on next boot.
Follow the tutorials, the most important thing is to have the right version of SW to your phone.
Also, I had to download LG bridge, then a pop-up came telling that drivers for the phone should be updated, I just accepted the update and then my phone was detected on my PC .
If you encounter a problem, please provide me a little more info (with caps if possible).
Hope to help you.

@joyousfrank. I've just been de-bloating my phone and managed to get a Security Error problem and was hoping to use this method to get the thing live again. Trouble is that Google is blocking the LGFlashtool download link. Any chance you have another link or could maybe upload a copy of the tool somewhere? Cheers

I used this thread as a guide
http://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/orig-development/root-tmo-vzw-intl-variants-soon-root-lg-t3164765
(Follow the steps for International H815 10c Version)
This is the rooted image I used http://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/...on-root-lg-t3164765/post62251256#post62251256
After you download it just unzip it, and rename the .img file to "system.rooted.H81510c-EU"
The file must be system.rooted.H81510c-EU.img
Hope to help.
Cheers!

Hello!
The first thing to do, is to find the right SW foy your phone model (and carrier) as I read some problems when flashing other different than stock.
Look up here http://devtester.ro/projects/lg-firmwares/download.php there's where I found the SW for Telcel. Just input your IMEI on that page and it will give you a download link.
Then, follow this steps http://devtester.ro/projects/lg-firmwares/install.php
It's important to tell you that my phone wasn't detected by my PC until I downloaded LG Bridge as it comes with the latest drivers, so I recommend you to do this if you face the "not-detecting phone PC".
And for last, I suppose that there should be thread with a list of safe to uninstall apps (this is my first LG so not totally sure).
As there's enough room for apps on the phone, I just ended freezing annoying apps with Link2SD to avoid having the "Authentcation Error #9" problem.
Hope to help you, cheers!

Good day my friends. This is my first post but i read these forums very often. I own a Digicel Dl750 (alcatel 4037a) which i would really appreciate some help with. I tried to flash my phone some time ago using a tutorial i found online since i couldn't find anything useful here (my go to source for these things). However, after trying to flash the rom and failing, i am stuck with a phone that won't respond to any input. COnnecting it with a usb simply gives me a white light on the phone, and device manager reads a "MTK usb port" device. it won't boot or anything else. Been trying to install some kind of recovery but i've had no luck so far. Is anyone here able to provide me with a backup of a working phone so i can fix mine please.
Edit Note1: After a bit more testing, I have pretty much confirmed that it is a problem with the preloader as the phone seems to completely skip the preloader when you connect it to the pc, and after a few seconds goes to the bootrom(?) instead. I am making this call based on the hardware ids show in device manager.

Well i was able to get an OSP dump which solved my problem. Not sure it would be of use to you though
Where can I get this dump at Denis?
Hello all. I have a huge problem that I have been suffering from for a few days. I have custom custom ultimate pie installed on my s9. I wanted to go back to stock, but when trying to install by Odin, Witold doesn't start the installation. I suppose the problem may be the lack of developer options: OEM unlock. Can anyone know a solution to the problem. I will be very grateful.

Are you missing Odin in "setup connection" ???, if it is the case as it happened to me on my laptop, it had never happened to me, for me it is something that has to do with windows (in my case with 8.1, in another group also in windows 10), I installed windows 7 (after trying everything) and it already works perfect.
