Hello Chainfire,

I would like to alter my Samsung Galaxy Note. I would like to use the method you call

Using the zergRush exploit. So because this is very exicting for me and I do not want to brick my phone I have downloaded Initial CF root flasher and the corresponding

CF root.

As a newby I reckon I have to connect my Note with my computer?

Sorry for my ignorance, just want to be shure.

Greetings.

Hi, i have rooted successfully and i am able to flash .zip's but not able to modify anything Using root explorer (eg build.prop) . root explorer gets the root permission successfully though.. cant understand can any1 help me this.

And can someone tell me whats the difference between Kernal and firmware? ... i know zimage is kernal. but what is a firmware? .. all i know is you can flash multiple kernals for the same ROM.. but what how does a firmware work??.. is Firmware = ROM ?

@ Chainfire

I can only repeat myself. You're a great dev., Respekt!

Two quest.

Why? Only because of the counter and the yellow triangle?

Yes, not everyone has a USB-JIG and so on.

Here too, are the counter and the yellow triangle the only reason?

Summary:

Are the reasons to simplify for the user or is there something else behind?

edit:

Many times, I flashed your Kernel with Odin and I can not find any negative changes. (except the yellow triangle and the Counter)

ADB Error

I get an adb server out of date when running the never rooted before script.

Used Kies to upgrade from KJ4 to KK9

Got zImage for KK9 and then run into the above error

Any ideas

update:

got a newer version of the adb.exe along with the associated dlls and works
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] aengus4h:
hi,

yes you'd run the bat file from your windows PC and it will use the exploit to get root access and then drop the cf-root kernel onto your phone. Just follow carefully the instructions and you should be ok, make sure your battery has charge first, best not to do with a low battery.

I still dont see a KK2 in CF's options for his CF-Root 5.0

Will you be adding the KK2?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] vayu:
An important but often overlooked point for newbie's is that the phone has to be put into USB debugging mode and that the appropriate drivers are installed. This is usually accomplished by installing Kies and establishing a connection the first time the phone is used.

Hi... My friend got a note after seeing mine. I encouraged him to root....pointed him here and he did successfully.

He then tried flashing a kernel from here a few days ago and got stuck on the triangle screen somehow. (he said he clicked the format system function before wiping for some reason which I'm guessing caused this).

I've been trying to get out of this for him for two days.

I can get into recovery, and get to Odin fine...and seemingly flash anything fine...but gets to triangle screen and won't budge.

I flashed* dooms unroot...looked successful...but same result!

Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Next step is sending it back to Expansys for replacement.

(:
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] Chris X.:
could work
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] vayu:
I put both the firmware and the CF version in the folder

Went through the steps identified by Chainfire i.e.

- Flash stock firmware

- Option to choose which kernel to use (picked the zImage, although had the tar file also just in case)

- Chose the option to flash normally

I get yellow boot triangle with the android green guy , phone reboots into the previous firmware

Tried every combination above, i.e. after selecting the modified kerned, preroot option as well as keep existing kernel option..no go

Does this process even work or is the intention that we have to buy the mobile odin version to do the upgrade

thanks for all inputs

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] vayu:
I am trying to flash the KKA firmware along with CF's KKA kernel

Per CF, you need to put both files in the firmware folder in ext sdcard during the flash process using CWM

Could you outline the sequence of steps and what you selected during the pop up prompts

FYI I have the CF modified kernel for KKA in both zImage and tar format in the firmware folder

thanks again

After rooting and flashing from kj4 to Kka I show the new kernel but android version still shows 2.3.5. Is this normal?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] Chris X.:
No isn't!

Make a wipe!

The baseband is also wrong.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] drhoades01:
What do you mean by make a wipe?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] mdalacu:
Yes, because you had only flashed the kernel.

You need to flash kka rom for android version to change and you don't need to make an wipe.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] drhoades01:
Ok, I thought that might be the case. Thanks. I am thinking about trying riversource's rom so that should upgrade my android version.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] Chris X.:
You're right, I must think easier.

O.K. but a wipe after this rom flash is not wrong.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] drhoades01:
I think that this part relates to flashing full rom firmwares and not just kernel flashes.

Would the USB JIG used on the S2 work in clearing the custom binary counter and all other things that can point to a rooted/reflashed phone or is the method in the first page the only way to have a clean flash?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] sibere:
Backup before flashing

Hi.

According to OP, to flash the zImage, one need to do this in a root shell:

dd if=/data/local/zImage of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p5 bs=4096

Can it be considered safe to revert the command to backup the current zImage for later restore in case of issues with the flashed zImage?

dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p5 of=/sdcard/zImage_stock bs=4096

I mean: can the resulting file be used for flashing it back ?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] alex_herrero:
I will answer my own question: as I couldn't get the KK2 proper kernel, I flashed the KKA over it, and then the corresponding CF kernel with CWM. Now works ok, except that I can't get a decent 3G or H+ speeds...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] Aedriaen:
Thanks very much for the reply Dave,

found a link on YouTube which describes the process thoroughly and visual.

So it worked fine for me. However after I have updated to Android 2.3.6. the process seems to be done again. And I cannot find [yet] a CFroot kernel which is right

to change with the original from 2.3.6.

rooting my note

is rooting the phone permanent? can you unroot the device?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] alex_herrero:
If you root your device without touching the kernel or just by flashing a custom stock kernel (as CF does), you can unroot (I mean remove su, superuser and all its cool stuff) even with scripts and automated procedures. If you have a yellow triangle, and you can't reset that counter with a JIG or other procedure, unrooting won't help you with your warranty and/or Technical Service because they'll know you've been toying with your phone anyway!

--NEEDED HELP--

I stuck with rooting for my galaxy note.

I have flashed my firmware to KJ1.

I am stuck at the step below..

1.2. If you are not rooted yet: Using the zergRush exploit

(while it still works on our firmwares, this exploit will probably be fixed soon! Known to work on KJ1 and KJ4 firmwares)

- Download the attached "InitialRootFlasher.zip" and extract it somewhere

- Download one of the CF-Root kernels, and extract it (repeat) until you end up with a zImage file

- Place the zImage file from the CF-Root kernel in the zImage folder from InitialRootFlasher

- Start "not-rooted-yet.bat" and follow the instructions.

I have done all the steps except

- Start "not-rooted-yet.bat" and follow the instructions.

i have also downloaded ADK or SDK manager onto my laptop.

can someone post some screen shot or detailed explanation?

Many Thanks in Advance!!

Hello,

I try to root my KJ4 note with zergRush exloit (not-rooted-yet.bat)

I installed keis Kies_2.1.0.11095_121_6.exe (also tried with Kies_2.0.3.11082_152_2.exe) and the phone connects normally.

I leave kies and launch not-rooted-yet.bat, it displays :

--- STARTING ----

--- WAITING FOR DEVICE

Thank you to chainfire!

I rooted using mac os rather than Windows, so here is what I did in case anybody wants the steps:

1. Install and setup adb and add to PATH.

2. Download the InitialCFRootFlasher.zip and extract as normal.

3. Download and extracted zImage to zImage folder created in #2.

4. Open terminal window and cd to InitialCFRootFlasher directory.

5. Connect phone and run the following commands in order:

adb wait-for-device
adb shell "cd /data/local/tmp/; rm *"
adb push files/zergRush /data/local/tmp/.
adb shell "chmod 777 /data/local/tmp/zergRush"
adb shell "./data/local/tmp/zergRush"
adb wait-for-device
adb push zImage/zImage /data/local/zImage
adb shell dd if=/data/local/zImage of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p5 bs=4096
adb shell rm /data/local/zImage
adb reboot

They are just the commands I extracted from not-rooted-yet.bat, so it does the same as the batch file, it just doesn't give you the nice fuzzy hints that the chainfire treated us to :)
