Hello everyone!

I am living in Korea and I got my galaxy note now for almost 2 weeks...

I really want to root my device but the problem is that this device differs a bit from the devices in europe. My device is called SHV-E160L and the Kernel version is....

2.6.35.11-E160L.EK24.0035-CL757274...

Is there somebody who can help me with rooting my device? ... I don´t want try to flash my device with one of the firmwares which I can download here in this forum.

The main difference is that my device is a 4G device and it has DMB.

It would be great if someone could help me...

Thanks!! And a happy new year!!

I see there is no DXKJ7 so should i take the KJ6 kernel instead?

Please advice thanks.

Guys,

After hours of failures, at last manage to root my SGN. I'm lovin it.

Just a pointer, ensure your Samsung Kies Drivers are all installed properly prior to rooting,

especially your 'Samsung Android' and 'CDC', connect your note to kies and run troubleshoot connections, if the drivers are not properly installed, you will be informed by kies, and automatically these drivers are updated. Then, proceed as per rooting steps using zergRush exploit.

Good Luck.

FYI: (Rooted)Kernel Version - 2.6.35.7-N7000ZSKK1-CL706440se.infra@SEP-67 #2

Hi,

I'm using this kernel and I'm generally happy with it.

However, I need to use vpnc to connect to my company network. (Cisco ASA VPN)

The vpnc application force closes when it gets connected.

On my previous Android device (Dell Streak 5 with 2.3.3) the same vpnc application works fine.

The rom has the correct prerequisites to run VPNC. What might be the problem ?

Is it because of modified busybox ?

Also, someone said that CF-root kernels do not support /etc/init.d scripts and does not have /etc/resolv.conf.

Could that be the problem ? (if yes, how can I get them working)

That's not exactly true : the new version of SWYPE isn't compatible with the old personnal dictionary of the previous version. That's the reason why some user don't have any problem and others have, depending of the fact than a user own a personnal dictionary or not.

So, to be able to use SWYPE again, you need to follow those steps :

Go to : parameters > applications > manage applications

After that, you specify : all

you look for swype in the list

then, you clear the datas.

Once it's done, you just have to select swype as your default keyboard again and it will be ok !

How to update CWM v3 to v5???

How do I update the CWM apps from v3.0 to v5?

Can anyone advise?

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] schaggo:
I did the job about 4 times since I got the Note and I never ever ran across the Blue Helion output. Seeing "waiting ... to reconnect" and then "device found" indicates, it's losing connection to the PC.

Is your cable ****? Is maybe your PC's usb port ****? Did you try a) the same cable on a different port b) another cable on same port c) another cable on different port? Does your PC's energy management maybe interfere with usb power output? IBM/Lenovo's notebooks do that, they cut the power (when configured to do so) when they see fit. Which is good, except you're in the middle of rooting... :-D

Restart your device after the script failed. Somehow the process can't get a clean grip on it (again) as "permission denied" indicates later on...

Can chainfire create DXKL3 zImage, firmware here
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] yeokpd:
Hi, Can you please explain how to use ODIN to root ? Do you mean the below ? I have to use KJ1 firmware and later flash DXKL3 firmware back using CWM Manager ?

"1.3. If you are not rooted yet: Flash a modified FACTORYFS

I am providing this method just this once, for the KJ1 firmware. This is the /system part of the KJ1 firmware, modified so at first boot it will flash the KJ1 CF-Root and reboot, without getting you the yellow triangle or increasing the flash counter.

Using a newer firmware? Do this operation first, then flash the newer firmware back using CWM Manager. This is explained in Chapter 3 below.

Download: http://www.multiupload.com/YB9EL8D8O3

- Optional: flash the full KJ1 firmware first

- Unzip the file, you should get "SGN_XX_OXA_KJ1_FACTORYFS.tar"

- Make sure your SGN is NOT connected to your computer

- Reboot your SGN into "download mode" (see below)

- Start ODIN

- Click the PDA button, and select the "SGN_XX_OXA_KJ1_FACTORYFS.tar" file

- Connect the SGN to your computer

- Make sure "repartition" is NOT checked

- Click the START button

- Wait for the phone to reboot TWICE

- Done

If you do not know how to get into download mode:

- Turn off the device

- Count to 10

- Hold the "home" (the big physical button in the middle) and "volume down" buttons

- Press and release the power button (keep holding "home" and "volume down" !) to turn the device on

- You should get a download mode screen

- If it tells you to press a button to continue, do so

Anyone know how to root the kl8 stock rom to flash the cf kernel because the other option of not rooted yet wont work on kl7 and above so i was wondering how?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] schaggo:
I believe you absolutely must downgrade if you don't want the odin counter to increase.

Root once downgraded and then flash KL7/KL8 over it without wiping. If you get lucky, you don't even have to wipe after downgrading from KLx to KKx or KJx. So if you really really are lucky you'll be able to simply downgrade-nowipe-root-upgrade-nowipe. I somehow doubt it though...

Upgrade to KL8

Hi to all and respect Chainfire for your work!

I'm on CFRooted KJ4 and I think it is time to move to KL8, hoping to have a better Note.

This is the procedure as I see it, please correct me if I'm wrong:

- Put the CF-Root-SGN_XX_OXA_KL8-v5.0-CWM5.tar file on SD card

- Open the CWM Manager app

- Select "Flash kernel"

- Select CF-Root-SGN_XX_OXA_KL8-v5.0-CWM5.tar

- CWM Manager will flash the kernel and reboot

- Download firmware N7000_XXKL8.rar I want to flash

- Extract it until I will have seperate files, resulting:

CODE_N7000XXKL8_CL840182_REV02_user_low_ship.tar.m d5

EFS_N7000XXKL8_CL840182_REV02_user_low_ship.tar.md 5

GT-N7000-MULTI-CSC-OXAKL8.tar.md5

KERNEL_N7000XXKL8_CL840182_REV02_eng_mid_noship.ta r.md5

MODEM_N7000XXKL8_REV_05_CL1089796.tar.md5

UMS_N7000XXKL8_CL840182_REV02_user_low_ship_16GB.t ar.md5

- Create a folder named 'firmware' on my external SD card

- Copy all the files to this folder ( /sdcard/external_sd/firmware )

- Open the CWM Manager app

- Select "Flash stock firmware"

- From the three options, choose: Keep CF-Root kernel (Keeps the current CF-Root kernel, only flash the other parts. I will not lose root or CWM Recovery).

- CWM Manager will reboot into CWM Recovery, and will flash the firmware, rebooting afterwards.

All this resulting on KL8 ROM with KL8 kernel rooted, CWM and SU, without yellow triangle and no counter.

Is there anything else I need to do, or modify the procedure?

Thank you!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] schaggo:
I believe that sums it up all nicely and corresponds to what I have done.

Two things: I believe I got fed up trying to flash the .tar with CWM, I used MobODIN to flash the kernel then CWM to flash the ROM. Secondly: be aware, my KL8 was wiping the device itself while flashing. I had a recent KL7 nandroid and restored *just* the data partition after the flash. While I'm well aware that one shouldn't do that, I tried and I don't experience any FC, lag or otherwise inconsistend behaviour until now. And got all my data back at once. Gooood boy *touching Note inappropriately* :D

Music

I'm about to use CF-Root and am a newbie+ to anything to do with rooting, so please forgive my ignorance. Will Google music still work and sink after I apply CF root? I can't wait to apply this so I can use DSLR controller with my Note. Are there any other applications that won't work after I do this? Can I overclock my phone with just using CF-Root ? Thanks
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] iulianul:
Upgrade to KL8

OK, but flashing the CF Rooted Kernel with Mobile Odin doesn't increase the counter? I mean, why couldn't you flash the kernel with CWM, being the safe way?

As a newbie: wipe means factory reset? To lose everything on the internal SD?

Is it possible to restore everything (settings, apps, apps data) with Titanium Backup?

The last one: I see everybody is using Mobile Odin. Could we do the same things with Odin for PC (win XP), or the mobile version has other functionalities?

Thanks
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] schaggo:
Yes. No. Yes. :p

No, Windows ODIN (run on Windows PC and phone put in Download/Odin Mode) does. MobileODIN does NEVER increase the counter, as it is very much comparable in function to CWM/CWR. It's kind of an automated CWM, if you want.

Wipe means wipe, in a broader sense. Can be wipe cache. Wipe user data. Wipe whatever. But like this and per se to wipe usually is referring to factory wiping, so completely emptying the /data partition. The internal sd card (the 16 gigs) won't be touched.

Functionality is very similar, hence the author has given it the same name. Main difference: MobileODIN needs a working and bootable android while Windows ODIN only needs a blank working bootloader. While the techniques are completely different, the outcome is the same. One major feature of MobileODIN: the way it's built it doesn't increment any counter at all when flashing custom stuff because it all happens on the device itself, the bootloader never gets to know anything about wether or wether not the stuff on the device is "legit" or not.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] nposix:
factory wipe will wipe ur data and settings in phone memory (/data). Do a CWM backup before any ROM flash.

No. It's not possible to restore everything with Titanium Backup for eg. like call logs and sms, whatsapp etc.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] schaggo:
Regarding overclocking you asked for. My personal assessment is: don't do it. The device is so brutally overpowered for Gingerbread, a custom Kernel with a "better" CPU governor other than ondemand will do wonders. Without putting any more stress on components you'll get an undeniably smooth interface and experience.

It's actually not even not possible bot not recommended!

Restoring system settings means "importing old junk" of an earlier, maybe incompatible ROM into a newly setup system. Incompatible restores can lead to FCs, instability, bootloops etc.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] iulianul:
Upgrade to KL8

Succeeded to upgrade to KL8 according the procedure described earlier.

Restored EVERYTHING with Titanium: system settings, apps+data, contacts, sms...

Everything working fine.

As reported earlier, I face a los in sensitivity of the touchscreen, especially at the bottom of the screen.

Also Dolphin Browser doesn't reflow anymore, but Opera does.

Battery drain: 32 hours since unplugged (charged to 100%), 15 mins Sygic GPS, few mins phone talk, 105 mins video play(with GPS, WiFi and Bt open), Sky force 15 mins play, Opera 5 mins, screen open for ~3 hrs and 43% left. Over night, in 10 hrs of stby, I lost 2%, from 84% to 82%. Right now trying to reach 1% through video player, in order to finish the calibration with Battery Calibration.

I am thinking about buying the SGN and doing a little dev research. I was wondering since I would likely be getting a newer ROM and would have to flash backwards and all that jazz if I didn't care about the counter increase (since I would not have warranty anyway in the US) Could I just use PC Odin and flash the older version to get root then flash ROMS and Kernels like I have been doing on the Captivate and i9100?

There is something I am not understanding about initial root. I think I understand you cannot get root on newer ROMS without flashing an older ROM. I am used to simply rooting using PC Odin. Yet the ODIN file is there but there is a line that says do not use it....... I am not sure without a rooted device how one can flash any ROM to get root.

This is the part that has me baffled

1.2. If you are not rooted yet: Using the zergRush exploit This method no longer works on KL* and newer firmwares!

So what DOES work on newer firmwares?

From this it appears there IS a root for newer firmwares using "not-rooted-yet.bat" or Mobile Odin which I assume doesn't need root.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] nobnut:
If you're doing research... read the first few posts AGAIN. No need to increase the counter. Chainfire has posted a firmware you can flash via ODIN and not trigger the binary count... and also root immediately after.
