How to root Verizon Galaxy Note 2 SCH-I605
Hey, what’s up? Pro Geeks here with another step-by-step Android root guide for Verizon variant of the Galaxy Note 2 running on 4.4.2 Kitkat.
I saw many users were complaining having their devices bricked or stuck at logo screen using Cf-auto root method. ChainfireXda developer has updated the root kernel, and you can gain root access using Odin without any issues. Please keep in mind that rooting your phone using this method will void its warranty as it trips Knox counter.

- Download Cf-auto root zip package for Verizon Galaxy Note 2.
