Quick question on which newer ROM to choose....

My Note was on:

N7000XXLC1---------2.3.6--------2012 March----------N7000OXXLB3---------Open Austria

I followed the instructions and downgraded to N7000XXKJ1 which is 2.3.5 with base band N7000XXLB2 and have root access (which is all I really wanted). But I would like to make sure I have the latest ROM with any bug fixes etc. Can I now go back to my original ROM version N7000XXLC1 and still have root? If not, what is the newest ROM I can use with root?

Thanks.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] bdastoor:
Use the built in CWM app. Copy the XXLC1 firmware into a directory called "firmware" on your SD card. Keep the corresponding LC1 CF root kernel also in the same folder. Use flash stock firmware option in CWM. When it asks you which kernel you want choose the CF root one and then choose flash normally. You will retain root.

You can flash any directly rootable rom,root with correct file(for the same rom) and then upgrade.There is another thread(How to root/unroot) by dr.Ketan which is better for this.

I am currently on AlBa ZCLP6 Full ICS Repack v3 and I want to go back to GB. I just have to flash the above GB Latest Not Directly Rootable rom going into recovery and wipe factory/cache/dalvic and flash the any above rom cause I heard these 2 roms have the best batery life and S-note/S-memo/s-choice.

After I flash any one of these GB roms will I still have root?

I am currently rooted on LA4. Can I update to LC4 Rom and keep root using Mobile Odin?

Also is it worth the effort?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] :
I am on criskelo Ver2 rom right now after flashing stock Gingerbread rom from your download link through pc ODIN and the flashing ics repack through mobile ODIN and the flashing criskelo through recovery mode.

Sir, now I want to go back to gingerbread stock which I did several times before too after ics. But just just want to be on safe side and ask you if it's okay to go back to stock and will I be able to update to premium suite officially when it's launched?

Thanks.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] dr.ketan:
Before moving to GB, wipe data N if you flash GB using CWM/Mobile odin, you can retain root.

LC4?? or LC1/2 , yes you can use Mobile odin to retain root.

It depends on ROM you have installed, it shud be from your region,
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] anjath:
LC4?? where?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] shawnthecableguy:
What about a N7000BDVLB2 (Telstra, Australia)?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] dr.ketan:
abyss Or any other custom kernel flashing is upto you.

If you want to use CWM tool, then you can flash, It is not must. Flashing can be done with mobile odin too, with keeping root intact.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] shawnthecableguy:
What about a N7000BDVLB2 (Telstra, Australia)?

Hi Mr.Ketan,

have you tried open germany or south africa or europe. Which has better battery life and yes s-note/s-memo/s-choice and all the functions.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] shawnthecableguy:

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] dr.ketan:

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] musashiro:
hey dr.ketan..

assuming that the official ICS comes out, and you posted it here as usual, how can we update?

you think the CWM Manager and keep root will work? or flash it on ODIN and wait for the root kernel from chainfire?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] dr.ketan:
Just stay tuned, everything will be clear once it rolled out.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] NOORHASHIM:
hi mr ketan

when i change my stock rom to another stock rom .. firstly i wipe data - cache then reboot and go download mode .. or wipe data cache .. then pull battery out then turn on phone dircet into Download mode .. and thx

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] knr117:
I have flashed many phones going back to the 8525 HTC and yea i am an idiot but i have to say of all the phones this has to be by far the worst.

In my view it beats the Motorola phones even. I'm very seriously thinking of returning it to ATT for an HTC phone. I've been looking for hours now even downloaded an app from market for 4.99 read every thread i can find and still don't understand how to get root with "super user"! or even clockwork recovery. I won't ask where to find said instructions because i imagine i am going to get flamed for this post.

However to anyone thinking of buying this phone and needing root to work in a simple manner then look else where for another phone or run stock rom. Again I'm no noob to flashing so if i am having trouble and you yourself are a noob then get another phone. This thing is flat crazy. And don't download any paid app from market unless you have downgraded and upgraded or had your 9th grade teacher regrade.

Sorry but really one thread with this much info and kernel listings for so many phones models is to easy to screw up.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] zviki:
Something must be wrong with you,because it's simple. Download ANY STOCK rom from JK2 to KK1 (directly rootable). Flash it with PC ODIN. Download CFroot for your installed rom (if rom is XXJK4 then download CFroot for XXJK4). Unzip file on PC and run Im not rooted file. Phone must be connected to PC,Kies installed and USB debugging in phone settings must be on. That's it. 3 steps only.

But you're right.There are to many threads about this and in single thread are to many different root options for beginners.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] zviki:
Is your phone properly connected to PC? I mean,are usb drivers properly installed? Look at device manager in desktop settings on PC, if there is yellow triangle near installed Samsung usb(modem) drivers. Or just reinstall it.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] shawnthecableguy:
Yeah, I can see it in device manager... Do I need to enable USB debugging since I am already in the download mode?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] knr117:
Your 100% right something is wrong with me, I have no idea what or where to get "KIes" also my kernel is LA1. and lastly my home just burnt to the ground and my Verizon Tbolt don't get service where Allstate has sent me. I got this phone because att does.

It is my fault because i didn't have time to do the research before i choose this phone and i trusted the sales person. I Also tried to downland what i thought was the correct files and due to the hour wait my connection timed out because i am using a free "hotspot" due to my router going up in flames with the house.

And no i'm not kidding. I just didn't have the time to spend looking and reading trying to figure out what is the correct this and that.

So again it's my fault however i still stand if a person is a noob then this phone or this thread isn't for them.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] zviki:
Sorry to hear that.I was admitted at the end that it's confusing thing for the beginners. But don't blame the phone because it's a good phone.With or without root.

P.S.

You can get Kies from Samsung's site under support or download tab. And at the end - you can always ask for help here. I know that dr.ketan or someone else will be glad to help you.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] shawnthecableguy:
Hmm.. rebooted the PC and it worked :)..

Now, do I HAVE to instal the 'directly rootable' rom's FIRST, then update to the 'not directly rootable' rom's with MOP?

Little issue.

I was running ICS Rom and decided to rollback to stock FW.

I used this:

N7000XXKKA ------ 2.3.6 2011 November------- N7000OXXKK5--------------------- Austria -------------------------

Starded Odin, flash ran ok, phone rebooted, I saw an update with an error message regarding multi-CSC install (can't access /system/csc/SEK/system) and now falling into bootloop.

Tried several things like disable antivirus, run ODIN 1.85 as Admin, but still bootloop. It seems that drivers are ok, since flash is working.

Tried to format my external SD, no chance.

Any idea?

Thanks :D
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] DarkWolfx:
Is there any way to extract the full stock firmware if it's different from the ones that are pointed out in this thread?
