dr.ketan, since my current pre-installed stock ROM (N7000XXKKA) is not on the list you informed me that N7000XXLA6 is the new stock ROM for my device based on the country in which it was manufactured, which is the United Kingdom.

:)

However, I did find a link to the N7000XXKKA stock ROM but I am unsure if it is genuine and or safe. If the link is considered a potential fake then I sincerely apologise and request any of the Superiors to delete it.

The link in question is, http://www.samsdroid.com/2011/12/n7000xxkka-android-236-gingerbread.html

:confused:

Also, may I know what do you mean by "check fus"? :o

Thank you once again for your continued assistance. :)

I'm currently using this rom on my note:

N7000JPLPD-------4.0.3------------2012 June------------N7000OJPLP7---------Pakistan------- -------------------------------

And i'm thinking about using one of those super smooth, fast and battery saver champions kernels around here, but i was wondering if its safe to use it or not due this hole wipe thingy iv been reading that can brick my Note :( and if it is indeed safe which one is the most smoothest and have the best battery life around here?

Has anyone here has their Stylus stopped functioning at all? I tried a different stylus and nothing...Even Flashed stock back via Odin and nothing? Maybe digitizer died?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] dr.ketan:
seems to be original.

Check fus is a tool, with this you can download stock ROM for your country. But it gives you single choice. it gives you download link for ROM which is currently available on Kies.

Dr.ketan

Thanks for your contribution to this forum. I have one question.

I install LQ3, and manage to root it. BUT I CAN'T INSTALL CWM!

I use pc odin to flash LQ3

use recovery, update zip CWM, install BusyBox... now i have root

install mobile odin, and flash CWM for LQ3 and then the SUPER SU downgrades to an older version (from 0.91 to 0.90) and I lose root rights. I open CWM and it fails to initiate.

I hope you understand me, and will help me fix it
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] dr.ketan:
Re root again

and after that extract zimage file from Cf root LQ3 and flash, then wait for atleast 10 min before opening CWM.

Differences between 2 version of 4.0.3 ROMS

Fellows, I'm a Brazilian user, and I'm using the ICS at my SGN.

Actually, I'm using this version: N7000JPLPD_N7000OJPLP7_MID

Now, we have the Brazilian update: N7000UBLPD_N7000ZVVLP2

What is the difference between these two versions? If there none important thing, I'll keep the first one.

Thanks!

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] YLNdroid:
Thank you dr.ketan. I have successfully downloaded the new stock ROM you suggested.

:)

Indeed, once university obligations have been fulfilled, I will root my device.

After rooting, I will backup up my current, pre-installed stock ROM (N7000XXKKA) using CWM.

If I need to unroot for warranty purposes, I will flash the new stock ROM (N7000XXLA6).

Once I need to root again, I will flash my backup copy of the rooted N7000XXKKA.

I suppose my above steps are appropriate?

:o
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] dr.ketan:
That is OK

But

No you can't. B'coz without root you won't restore:mad:

Yo have to root it again, yes you can restore data after that with backup copy.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] YLNdroid:
dr.ketan, I am sorry I upset you.

What should I do in that circumstance?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] dr.ketan:
You have to root it again, like this time you have root it. ( I think you hav flashed pre rooted ROM)

CSC problem

Anyone knows how to change the CSC?

I followed Dr. Ketans instructions, I had GB LC1 and CSC is OXALC1. I want to flash

CSC from N7000UBKK8---------2.3.6--------2011 December-------N7000TCEKK2-----Mexico (Telcel)------------------------------Download so CSC would be TCEKK3.

When I flashed with PC odin, I selected the single file in CSC and only that one checked. When it flashed, for some reason it flashed the whole rom!

Not only the CSC, so now I had lost root and had an unrootable rom.

Had to downgrade, root, reinstall LC1.

I am trying to do it now with mobile odin but I am confused. Should I select the file in cache, as if it was a null null problem and start the flash?

or should it be modem pointing at the same single file?

or maybe caché to that single file BUT I HAVE TO REFLASH ALSO LC1 SELECTING IT AS flash new firmware at the same time?

Just to make it clear, in mobile odin, if I open the file in "caché" and press start flash...that would change my csc to the one on the file?

I need this step to follow Dr. Ketan's guide to ICS.

Thank you in advance
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] dr.ketan:
If you want to flash only csc, then extract rom file 1 level.deep. You will find a file having name cache. Copy that file to sd card, open mobile odin, select cache, point to copied file n flash. Note this will wipe data.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] dr.ketan:
Just i hav read ur previous post, you hav still not rooted. You hav just update la6 rom. I want to say you can backup rooted rom, but to restore, you also need to have root. The rom you hav downloaded.is i suggested for your country rom. This rom is non rootable. As of now just enjoy it, when you need root, we will discuss that time.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Ushh:
Ohh you are the best! thank you, I will try that.

So you are telling me that I understood correctly? cache corresponds to CSC and a diferent CSC can coexist in a diferent ROM? any rom? including ICS?

Thank you again!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] xyancompgeek:
Hi all! I got my gnote yesterday. it was ddlb2 which is, obviously not directly rootable. I followed dr.ketan's guide (follow this procedure when no other method of rooting works)(perfect guide, man!!!) and it has now come to XXKJ1 as per the firmware given by Dr. ketan. It is rooted and has CWM. As expected, the keyboard was giving null and CSC was unknown. Do i need to reflash the entire package (ddlb2) to get back the CSC? If so, what option do i have to chose in Mobile Odin so that the root stays now? Or can i just flash the CSC of ddlb2 over this firmware? Obviously the unknown CSC is the reason why the keyboard is giving null. Right? Sorry for all the questions, but i like to be thorough. Tks!!! BTW: the CSC of DDLB2 is ODDLA1.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] mediavieja:
Anyone? Dr.ketan? :(
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] dr.ketan:
Now do one thing

Flash entire ROM which you want to flash finally (DDLB2 or watever)with Mobile odin (by selecting open file..) Keep ever root enable

This will update your device

If still you hav error of null null

select cache tab in mobile odin and point to same ROM file and flash.

Sorry man, I have never used any custom ROM/Kernel

Hi!

I got Nordic GB 2.3.6 LC1 and ICS Nordic released today. How do I update ICS and keep root + CWM?

Im dl the ICS Stock ROM right now and which guide to update to ICS?

Mine phone is rooted + CWM.

edit:

Just flash with Mobile Odin and root was kept. But CWM was gone and how can get CWM back on Nordic ICS LQ3?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Ushh:
As Dr. Ketan told me and I did yesterday.

Extract from the rom until you get to 4 or 5 files. Then you have to copy cache.img to the sd card. Open mobile odin, touch on cache, select the file (cache.img) and tap on Flash firmware. Mine worked yesterday, now I have the csc that I wanted, BUT BE AWARE, DR. KETAN SAYS THERE´S A POSIBILITY THAT IT WILL WIPE ALL YOUR DATA. AND DON'T DO IT IF YOU HAVE ICS INSTALLED CAUSE YOU COULD BRICK YOUR NOTE! If you are in GB rom is ok. In my case it did not happened, (wipe data) but I can´t tell why. The only thing I did not like was that all the bloatware from that carrier loaded into my phone even tough my rom was not modified and I only flashed cache.img. Other than that everything is fine for me.

Hope this helps.

Can i tick in "re-partition" if i would want to do it when i flash a stock kernel or is that something you want to avoid?..

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] toygixxer69:
Just got my GT-7000. I'm quite lost in what i can do with my new phone. I'm a bit familiar with rooting and installing ROMs on my old HTC HD2. I didn't see my Note number version listed on the first page of this thread. Don't wanna "brick" it and would love to try out ICS roms if possible. Thanks.

Baseband: N7000XXlA4

Kernel: 2.6.35.7-N7000XXLA6

Build: Gingerbread XXLA6
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] dr.ketan:
Look again. at least 17 XXLA6 ROM are there find it of your country.

Have you read some ROM moved to other place?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] ho_kuku:
The general advice here is to avoid the repartition checkbox unless you know what you are doing. My understanding is that it formats and partition your internal storage based on the information contained in a "pit" file. Eg - 2gb for system, 2gb for storage etc. Therefore to repartition you'll need the pit file too.

The official ICS roms all have the potential to brick your phone (emmc bug) - so to wipe is like playing the russian roulette.

There are scripts that you can use before flashing to your preferred kernel. Those scripts typically clean up the unnecessary files so that they don't create problems for the new kernel.

I am using the jbroid cleaning script in this forum.. Do a search and see if you are comfortable with what you see.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] toygixxer69:
oh damn.....hahaha.....i was panicking that mine wasn't on the list that i overlooked post #4.......hahahaha:o
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] dr.ketan:
Re-Partition is not needed even you want clean sweep.

This is required if you have messed up your note with wrong partition(by flashing some other device stuff) and it is soft bricked.

All otherwise dont touch it, any wrong pit file can brick your device.

CSC when upgrading to ICS

Dr. Ketan

Is there a way to prevent that flashing a rom overwrites the CSC? I have GB India now, but with your advise, now I flashed México's CSC. So I have India's GB rom with Mexicos CSC. I want to follow your upgrade guide to ICS with "LPQ Baltic" that many people say it is really good.

My fear is that when I flash with pc ODIN ICS it would replace my CSC and if it does not work, I would have to flash the CSC, but as you have warned, flashing CSC triggers reseting the phone, so it could trigger the emmc bug no?

Any advise?

Is it possible in PC ODIN to select as PDA the ICS Baltic LPQ

In CSC, from Mexico's rom cache.img

And this won't trigger emmc bug?

Or any other posible way of preventng CSC overwrite?

Try to flash a Gingerbread Rom with PC ODIN, if it finishes you are ok and you can then wipe cache, dalvik and factory settings ONLY IF YOU SUCCESFULLY FLASH A GINGERBREAD ROM, NEVER IN ICS. Then reinstall ICS LPQ.

If it does not flash the GB Rom there is a big possiblity it indeed triggered de EMMC bug.

Flash GB ROM with PC Odin

then from recovery wipe cache and data.(you will lose data)

Then reflash ICS with PC Odin

Just flash CSC.

Open Cache tab on mobile odin and point to ROM file you have flashed.

and flash it.

Remember this will wipe your data. Discuss also this kind of wiping is how safe.

Safest way is to go to GB, wipe cache N data and clean install ICS.
