R U shure U have galaxy note ? GT7000 ?

If answer is YES then U can try LP5 kernel
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] Shadow Guardian:
Hey after unpacking the zip file, I find a tar file! Could I flash it via odin! Pls answer!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] btyork:
read the OP. No Odin.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] btyork:
Wrong forum, this is for the galaxy note.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] Shadow Guardian:
But he also says "See the second post of the thread for flashing instructions. If you're thinking about using ODIN to do it, you should probably read that post" And The tar file contains zimage which is the kernel! What's the difference? Sorry for the noob Q's
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] btyork:
Yes, because in the post he provides a kernel flashing script. Please read the entire first and second posts.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] Shadow Guardian:
Ok Thanx a lot!! :)

Just One more Question

If I have already upgraded to XXLC1(Non Rooted), there is a cf root kernel for it could I flash the tar file in that directly via Odin!

Or

I would have to go back to KJ4 root it via zergrush and then install cf root for KJ4 then upgrade it to xxlc1? Sorry again! :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] chasmodo:
You could, but that's a brute force method which would increase your binary counter, produce the triangle and void your warranty. Hence the need for downgrading and using the more gentle zergrush approach.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] Shadow Guardian:
Does that cause any harm to the phone?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] chasmodo:
No, but it causes much harm to your pocket should you at any time try to claim your warranty.:p

They'll flat out refuse you and you'll have to pay.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] Shadow Guardian:
But If I flash it with stock, I can claim warranty can't I? Nywayz, I'll tell them it came like this! The samsung here is a bit dumb! They don't ask anything! But Ur sure that it doesn't cause ny harm to the phone??
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] chasmodo:
If you flash it with a stock Rom, your triangle will go away, but your biniry counter won't. Anyway, do whatever you like since it appears that you know best.

Why even bother asking questions when you know in advance what you're going to do?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] robertberma:
@Chainfire can you please root the LP6 kernel from the latest leak?

Thanks
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] Shadow Guardian:
Dude I'm sorry! If after rooting with ODIN I find problems, after flashing with cwm manager will the binary counter be reset?

Firmware update after root+cwm (with cfroot)

Hello boys and girls of XDA :). First of all THANK you.

Now questions.

I am not so newb to all this rooting and stuff but I am not all well experienced (just an advanced user). My questions are:

1. Can I download standard firmware updates (offered buy samsung) after rooting method from this post of dr.ketan. (it is cfroot method with mark -> edit 16Nov11 Simplified) and are they going to change something if I do not select keep Cfroot option in CWM Manager?

2. Is there any special procedure required for installing custom roms after I install latest firmware update (from samsung not through any other apk like CWManager), like rooting again or keeping Cfroot kernel or stuff like that.

Sorry if I asked something that was already said, just pinpoint me to the location (post/thread) with similar questions answered (do not try to hassle me for asking these questions, because everybody knows -> there is no stupid question, just a stupid answer).

Thank you.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] brockyneo:
Like chaosmodo said if you flash root via Odin you will get triangle and counter will rise resulting in ya warrenty been broke and if you want rid of triangle and counter you will either have to flash ics and use triangle away or get a jig around a quid of eBay and remove it that way

Or again to avoid all that use the zergrush way just make sure you download a directly rootable rom
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] chasmodo:
You'll probably stop getting OTA Samsung updates after you root your phone. I say 'probably' because some users still get them.

If you root and do get and install an OTA update, you'll lose your root.

Anyway, there's no need to wait for Sammy to deliver something you can get here at XDA the day after it's been released.

Procedures for installing custom Roms are always posted by the Rom dev in the first or second post of his thread. Just read them carefully, follow the instructions to the letter and you'll be fine.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] Shadow Guardian:
Thanx man! I couldn't exactly get what chainfire said while upgrading the firmware. Could u help me in flashing xxlc1 and root it by cf root kernel step by step from cwm manager(its a 3 part file pda,modem,csc)? Please!! :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] djudjix:
Hvala druze :).

Thank you buddy :).
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] matius44:
There is a sticky thread about rooting and upgrading by dr. ketan in Development Forum, read it and follow instructions, fairly easy..
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] Shadow Guardian:
But in that he says to take kernel as the code file but that is supposed to be pda and the kernel is supposed to be the cf root kernel right!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] matius44:
Mate, that guide has been stickied for a reason, literally hundreds followed it without issues..

You want a rooted LC1? Follow that guide, downgrade to a rootable firmware, root it, then flash the firmware you like accompanied by CF Root kernel, that's it..
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] Shadow Guardian:
Thanks for the quick reply! What I mean is I'm a bit confused to take which file as which

I have 4 files

Firmware

1)CODE_N7000XXLC1_CL1003701_REV02_user_low_ship.tar.md5

2)GT-N7000-MULTI-CSC-OXALC1.tar.md5

3)MODEM_N7000XXLB2_REV_05_CL1106002.tar.md5

Root

4)CF-Root-SGN_XX_OXA_LC1-v5.3-CWM5.tar(containing zImage)

Mat why not just flash from here a prerooted lc1 with pc odin?

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=23357737&postcount=1
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] Shadow Guardian:
Is it rooted by the same cf root??
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] matius44:
Did not thought about that! That's perfect and eliminates unnecessary steps! :)

Yes I believe it's rooted with CF Root as that's the only root for stock ROMs and kernels..
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] afilopou:
Yes its cf rooted and if you want cwm recovery a good workaround is to take the zimage for eg lc1 kernel and flash it with mobile odin pro

No go for download mode

I got this far into your instructions, but here no downoad mode. I press "home" and "volume down" until my knuckles turn white, and at the same time briefly but firmly press and release the power button by its middle. It hurts my fingers. The device turns on, but just boots up into regular Sammy mode. I disabled my password and just do a swipe as indicated (with another of my fingers while still holding down aforementioned keys). I turned off Data Network mode. I let Media Scanning run its course. All to no avail. Just regular Sammy mode, no download mode. If only it told me to press a button!

What to do now?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] afilopou:
You must shut down the phone.Wait for few seconds (as chainfire told count to 10). hold down

volume down+home(middle button)+power button (in this order and dont release any button) after seconds you ll be in download mode (you ll see a menu saying that if you want to go to download mode you must hit the volume down button)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] syncopath:
Ah, that's it, I was probably not holding on to the power button for long enough (the original instructions said "press and release"). Now I held on to all three for dear life, and download mode appeared.

Thanks very much for your reply and patience!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] syncopath:
Nothing happening in download mode

...did that

It offered me "volume up" to enter download mode or

"volume down" to boot normally.

The latter I had already tried, so now I entered download mode.

The result is a screen which stays seemingly eternally on,

which features a little green "R2D2", saying:

"Downloading... Do not turn off target !!"

And some barely legible details in red and white at the top left.

This has been on my SGN for some 3 hours now. Nothing else seems to be happening.

What should I do? What does it mean by "target"? Lest "target" be my SGN, I took the precaution of plugging the USB cable back into the power supply, so we can keep playing this game for 24 hours or longer if necessary without running out of electricity.

But what is going wrong? what have I done wrong? What is going on? How can I Start ODIN as specified in the next step?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] chasmodo:
I'll help you.

First, power off your poor phone.

Second, are you sure you have the correct Samsung drivers installed on your computer? What computer are you using? Tell me that, and I'll walk you through.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] zard:
Chainfire,

Can I request your help to make CF-Root for LC2 please?

My current stock rom is Kernel N7000DXLC2, Baseband N7000DXLC1, Singapore (SingTel).

Thanks.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] mdfaiz:
Hi all, I know that rooting and flashing is a risky thing and so I wanna clear my doubts before I do anything. Am currently on LC2 and i want to have root while on LC2. I read that LC2 is not directly rootable which means I have to downgrade to KJ1.

1. Does downgrading to KJ1 delete all my Apps and data?

2. After downgrading to KJ1, it will still be stock right? As in it still has no root yet right?

3. So after downgrading I use the zergrush method am i right?

4. After rooting while on KJ1, how do I upgrade back to LC2 without deleting my Apps and data while still maintaining root?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] chasmodo:
An alternative, and perhaps easier way for you to achieve root would be to flash either LC1 or LC2 pre-rooted stock Roms from here. Use PC Odin, of course, and make sure you have Samsung drivers installed prior to flashing the Rom.

All these Roms are of no-wipe variety, which means you get to keep all your stuff.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] mdfaiz:
Thankyou. But the instructions there make me even more blur. And over there. Their version of LC2 is LBLC2, not the. DXLC2 that I'm currently on.

The questions that I posted earlier, could?u pls help me with them? Whether the data will be formatted, etc.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] chasmodo:
Yes, you'll lose your apps, contacts etc. in the process.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] mcvals21:

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] dannstarr:
I want to play around with some custom boot animations, but i have some questions:

What file is my original boot animation?

If i go into data/local there are no files listed.

If i go into system/media the most likely candidates are bootsamsung.qmg and bootsamsungloop.qmg is it either of them? Am i even in the right place?

I read somewhere that you can just use root explorer and replace the 'bootanimation.zip' file, but as i dont have one there, im not sure what to do?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] aussiebum:
No. This is NOT a ROM.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] brotbuexe:

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] mcvals21:
can please answer me:

another question please...

do i have to do these steps (the red ones) before starting the initial CF Root Flasher:

(2) enable "USB DEBUGGING"

from (Menu\Settings\Applications\Development)

(3) enable "UNKNOWN SOURCES"

from (Menu\Settings\Applications)

(4) [OPTIONAL] increase screen timeout to 10 minutes

(5) connect USB cable to PHONE and then connect to PC

thank you

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] Chainfire:
The flasher will instruct you to do this, so yes, it may be a good idea.

No, if you root your stock ROM with this, it will be rooted. To deodex your ROM, you would typically deodex it.

If you find a compatible tun.ko, sure. Try finding one in the SGS2 forums, it may actually work on these kernels. (Same goes for cifs.ko, but I personally use neither so I can't test them)

Just place bootanimation.zip in data/local or system/media and it should work.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] brotbuexe:
And bln support would be nice too.

Using VPNCWidget I was able to login to a Cisco OpenVPN server - first time.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] Chainfire:
BLN requires recompiling the kernel. CF-Roots are stock kernels, so this is not possible.

Cool.

modprobe: chdir(2.6.35.7-N7000XXKJ4-CL641703): No such file or directory

looks like there is something wrong with modprobe.

As far as I know, and I know not much :), the kernel modules have to match the kernel version string. So it has to be compiled for this kernel. I read the kernel source is there, but that is too much complicated for me to compile it myself. Looks like I have to wait a little. :)

thanks anyway.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] syncopath:
Thank you for your help chasmodo!

I had left the poor thing with the "Downloading..." screen as described and gone to bed. Overnight it seems to have powered itself off. Now it seems to be completely dead. At least, pressing the power on button for 10 seconds doesn't do anything. I have not risked trying anything more exotic!

My phone has (or had) version LA6. I have been trying to follow Chainfire's instructions to go down to the rooted version of KJ1 and then back up with root to the same version, which Dr.Ketan was so kind as to help me download (see posts above).

I didn't get very far into the instructions. (You may notice early problems and progress above, thanks to afilopou.) I was following version 1.3 as I am not rooted yet (that is all I am trying to achieve) and my original version is higher than KL*. On my PC I downloaded and unzipped the KJ1 and LA6 files I am going to need.

The only thing for the phone that I have installed on my PC as yet is Samsung Kies. This is version 2.3.0.12035_16. I have only so far used it to set up theft tracking (via Samsung website), synchronise my contacts and agenda with Outlook, and to transfer some datafiles to my phone, using the USB cable supplied with the phone.

My computer was custom built by PCL Computers, with an Intel Q9300 2 core 2.5 GHz processor on an Asus P5Q Deluxe motherboard, with 4 GB RAM of which 3 GB accessible to Windows 7 Ultimate 32 bits (Service Pack 1 and patched up to date).

On my phone I had installed ODIN as Chainfire says it must be used just once and then removed. I did try to start it once out of human curiosity, but it just - quite rightly - informed me that I needed to be root to use it, so I closed it again.

The steps I followed above were done with the phone not connected to the PC as per instructions. I had transferred the SGN_XX_OXA_KJ1_FACTORYFS.tar file and the accompanying zImage file to a new folder on the phone, as in the instructions Chainfire says to select the SGN_XX_OXA_KJ1_FACTORYFS.tar file before connecting to the computer. I see now that the zImage file seems only to be needed in method 1.2. Should I not have transferred that?

Anyway, thanks once again. I'm standing by and hoping!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] chasmodo:
Can you switch on your phone at all now? We can't do anything if it's not on.

You're most probably right; but he has to

1. downgrade to root it

2. upgrade to the desired version

He's almost certainly bound to lose his data in the process, judging by the level of know-how displayed in his questions.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] mdfaiz:
Hmmm, since I'm on LC2, i just us the LC1 one, will I still lost my data?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] mdfaiz:
Ok nvm it is must to downgrade.

What if I downgrade an stay at KJ1? What are the things that are on LC2 by not KJ1? This way, will I still lose my data?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] clandestino123:
Perhaps easier? There's absolutely no doubt about it!

That that should be the sticky one. download the ROM and Odin. follow the diagram. Buy mobile Odin pro, and flash a cwm kernel. No triangle or binary counter. The end.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] chasmodo:
You don't even have to do that. The Roms I have suggested already contain the matching CF--Root kernel.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] mdfaiz:

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] syncopath:
Aha, where there's life, there's hope! I've re-plugged it into the mains electricity, and if I press the power button now it is clearly trying to tell me, by means of various icons, that the battery is considered to be almost empty but that it's charging.

Then start PC Odin on your PC.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] syncopath:
OK I copy, but I haven't yet got PC Odin on my PC. I only installed "[Root] Mobile ODIN Pro" on my phone. So I'll have to go and get PC Odin and install if first. I'll be right back.

Thanks for the link. I have now started PC Odin. If I need to study the manual, please say.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] chasmodo:
No need for any manual, I'll tell you what needs to be done.

Now that you've checked that no Kies is running and PC Odin is started, connect your phone to your PC's USB slot.

But choose a slot at the back of your PC, not at the front or on the side.

Then wait for Windows to install the necessary drivers (make sure the PC has Internet connection). It might take a minute or three.

Report back to say if all the drivers are installed and if a yellow field has appeared in the top left corner of PC Odin.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] syncopath:
Windows installed 2 drivers after connection via USB port at the back of PC. "Your device is ready to use" 1 "Installed Samsung Mobile USB CDC composite device" and 2 "Installed Samsung Mobile USB Modem #3".

On PC Odin the field ID:COM is yellow and has a value of 0:[COM5] and there is a message "<ID:0/005> Added!!"
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] chasmodo:
Now hit the "PDA" button on PC Odin and select your SGN_XX_OXA_KJ1_FACTORYFS.tar file.

Make sure "repartition" is NOT checked.

Hit Start button.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] chasmodo:
Your phone will reboot twice in the end, don't be alarmed.

Sometimes your Note can get stuck in a bootloop after PC Odin flashing. If it happens, don't panic. Pull out your battery, wait for a bit, put it back. Put your phone into Recovery mode by pressing

Volume Up + Home + Power

Once in recovery, do a factory reset and reboot. Everything should be fine.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] syncopath:
Until now nothing has changed. Do I need to keep my phone under constant observation, or will something tell me if the phone has rebooted? If the Note got stuck in a bootloop, how would I know afterwards?
