Hi Dr.Ketan,

let's assume that problem in cfroot LPY is exist, so how is the procedure if we want to flash this official ICS ROM without cfroot via mobile odin?

Should we put blank for the "kernel"?

Thanks
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] dr.ketan:
No, not blank but dont replace with zimage file. Just keep as it is n flash.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Araf:
okay doc...well-noted.

No /system access in Root Explorer

Dear Dr Ketan

I followed your guidelines but in Root Explorer i am unable to mount /system as R/W in Root Explorer..

Guess not a full root yet..

Anyway in wake of recent LPY kernel issues i have reverted back to LC1 using PC ODIN..

Hoping for a quick solution to the problem and FULL root access.. :D
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] NLS:
Guys this is confusing!

We have to clear out:

1) Is stock LPY from Kies affected? If yes, LINK?

2) Is stock LPY from OTA affected? If yes, LINK?

3) Is the problem CF-Root?

3b) If problem is CF-Root then using Odin Mobile Pro and everroot WITHOUT CF-Root, is ok AND results in a rooted device?

4) Is the problem related to what firmware was installed last before LPY?

We should clear those things out.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] lingamkrishnan:
i have the same problem..is it safe to have ICS or go back to GB?

Dr.Ketan bro, your advice please..
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] altae:
It's easy: Get a rooted GB rom, preferably you use the pre-rooted ones plus the corresponding CF-Kernel. Then download the official ICS Rom plus the newly released CF-Kernel by chainfire. Flash them both using mobile odin. Be sure to tick "Enable EverRoot", "Inject Superuser" and "Inject Mobile Odin". If you follow this procedure you will certainly get a fully rooted ICS.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] zviki:
I don't think that this is a rom problem.This rom is also available on Samsung Firmwares site and it's not some pre-release.It's OTA upgrade and it should be fully tested by Samsung.At least for problem like this. 5-10% of bricked devices is a little too much that Samsung could effort this. It must be CFroot.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] dr.ketan:
Best way is dont do anything n keep using ics. Dont use cwm wipe cache/data in sort dont use recovery function. It shud b clear soon.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] lingamkrishnan:
what is the best pre-rooted rom to have the full root access back? can it be flashed in mobile odin or pc odin?

2. CWM recovery (you need Root + CWM on existing ROM. Get )

You want write CWM Manager, is'n it?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] NoBodysGamer:
Do we really need CF-Kernel to have root in ICS?

What if i just enable EverRoot option in Mobile Odin pro? Will it work?

When i flashed latest GB thats what I did and I have root access, never used any CF-Root file and dont have no need for CWM...

Hi Doc,

I flashed the ICS LPY stock rom with the guide you provided. I have root and backed up all the app from TB. One thing is triangle away is still there but I was wondering if this might help. Also don't know about the binary count has it gone up.

Upgraded to ICS4.0

I was on Stock GingerBread ROM DDLB2 here in India for Galaxy Note.

Upgraded to the "N7000XXLPY---------4.0.3---------2012 May-----------N7000OXALPY" ROM posted in the 1st post on this thread.

I used Odin to flash the PDA (.md5) file and it's working fine so far. I have no issues with any of the features...however, I had to re-configure the Internet APN post which the phone started switching on my 3g data connection.

I have observed that sometimes there is a lag in the phone responding to your commands...eg. while opening the Stock Contacts Application, or licking a command in any of the applications. This is happening sometimes.

Further, in the stock SMS application, the contact names are not showing up for some of the SMS threads even though the number is stored in my Address Book. For these same SMSes, the Contact Name shows up fine in the GO SMS application. Am not sure why this issue with the Stock SMS application.

Also, when dialing any number from the Stock Dialer, the number shows with spaces in between, eg. if the number is 9823098230, then it shows as 98 230 98230. Also if you add this number (via the Stock Contacts application) from the Stock Call Log, it adds the number with spaces, i.e. it shows 98 230 98230 auto-populated in the Number field.

Overall a decent build. These few issues spoil the experience to some extent.

Speed and screen transitions are much improved overall. Have seen no issues in 3g signal and wifi signal receptions.

Also after the upgrade, all my 100+ applications are working fine after getting auto-upgraded and all my settings and application data are as-is, i.e. I have not had to reconfigure anything...NO data/settings loss is there after this upgrade.

I have not done a Factory Reset yet...will observe for a few more days and then decide if I have to do this as I hate having to reconfigure my phone from scratch.

When will they fix this problem? :(

Flashing back to gingerbread now. very upset. bye bye ICS taskmanager & google chrome
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] dr.ketan:
yes just everroot will work, if you dont want CWM then no need to replace zImage file. Just flash ROM with ever root function enable.

Go to download mode and check counter is raised, if raised then reset using triangle away

It is rootable.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] NoBodysGamer:
dr.ketan

One last question, I have rooted note + Mobile odin pro.

What will happen if ill do factory reset/wipe (from the phone settings menu)

Will ill loose root? or Root will stay and ill just have to re-install Mobile Odin pro and Super User app?

Thanks
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] dr.ketan:
your root + superuser will remain, Mobile odin depend how you have installed. If you have push during flashing ROM last time with mobile odin, then it also will remain. But if you dont find after reset, just download it again.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Captain Splash:
Thanks Dr K :D

I was coming straight from the ICS 9220 repack (Rocket ROM 1.5beta) which I've been using for about 2 months.

Followed your instructions and it worked perfectly.

It stuck on the boot animation, i left it for 15 mins or so then pulled the battery. Booted into CWM recovery and wiped, cache, factory reset, Dalvik and it booted fine - I was surprised and happy that the default language was English.

Note is current restoring from Titanium - just have to change the DPI and reconfigure and I'm good to go.

all seems pretty sweet at the moment.

Thanks for your guidance and help.

1. chasmodo. flashed LPY CFroot on CM9 then do a WIPE... (take note this is the only scenario where CFroot is responsible)

2. _Jkay_ got his phone bricked or the proper term is broken since his kid dropped the phablet..

3. CFroot, again he is coming from LEAK stuff...

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] emze:
been using Stock ICS for 2 days now.

my review.

FINALLY ICS(GOD, WHAT TOOK THEM SO LONG????) and Premium suit(yes it has been added)

Still feels like gingerbread(pfft... what were you expecting?)

screen is OH-SO-LAGGY and at times goes haywire while launching apps in a hurry

S-Pen.. the pride of the Note, although has the update, works like crap, does not work for selecting/launching apps but works fine with S-Note.

Battery life is bad, but still under evaluation

--------------------------------------BOTTOM LINE------------------------------

if you are comfortable with an initial bad battery(which MIGHT improve or remain the same), a laggy screen and a semi-functioning S-Pen, upgrade to ICS. else, save your self the time and wait for another improved release.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] eug:
I've been using it since it was released as well. My battery life is good, my screen is definitely not laggy - GB was very noticeably laggy while ICS is definitely smooth. The S-Pen works just fine, and has gained a VERY important feature imho - the floating cursor. Now I know exactly where it's pointing, which is very important when drawing or writing.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] emze:
the floating cursor is good. i agree... the rest is the observations i have made in the past 2 days.

What are steps should be taken to flash this Ics lpy rom + Cf rooted? I have never flashed Rom through mobile odine before thus this would be my first time to try. Im running Darky Rom 3.4.1 now.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] sameer_tangri:
Should we not upgrade to this ROM????

I have already upgraded my Note to this ICS ROM.

However, if you read the following thread- http://www.theandroidsoul.com/xxlpy/ this guy says there is a huge BUG in this firmware which may brick phone when copying large files to the External SD card.

Any comments from the experts on this?

Please check the other topics, already known overhere.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] akenis:
Thanks you said above that I do have an older rootable rom on my new Note. Lastly, what is best method to end up on LPY with full root and CWM and no triangle? It seems there are several threads and several options:

1. PC odin LPY with CF kernel and then triangle away.

2. PC odin stock LPY and then SD card method with CWM and busybox.

3. CF's notyetrooted.bat on current ROM then mobile odin methods

4. zargush exploit rootme.bat and then mobile odin methods.

THANKS AGAIN.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] lingamkrishnan:
as i said earlier in this thread, re-flashing the CF kernel didn't get full root..am still unable to mount system as RW.. how do i use the above method to gain the root access? any ideas?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] dr.ketan:
First flash ICS with PC odin to unroot

then follow above said method
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] lingamkrishnan:
what my worry is, if i flash stock ICS rom using PC ODIN, it will not wipe any data since its non wipe rom!! hence the existing CWM & super SU applications will be existing when i root with above said method. will not this conflict the CWM/super su applications?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] evil-doer:
ive asked this a couple of times but i really would like an answer. dr ketan, maybe you know.

if i check the two wipe options in mobile odin when flashing, does that negate the need to do a full factory reset once its installed?

im having horrible battery life and i want to make sure its as wiped as possible. it could be that this build of ics just has crappy battery life, i dunno. im getting close to half the battery life of stock gb. pretty sad.

Hi Buddy,

I upgraded from rooted GB to ICS using mobile ODIN and injected SuperSU and other files and everything was working fine. I hard reset the device and SuperSU remained but didnt had superuser access. I followed your method and flashed SU through CWM. I can see superuser application but no superuser access. In SUperuser it shows SU Binary as vNull. Kindly suggest

Edit1: Flashed through PC ODIN and now getting su prompt.

Edit 2: Have full access. Pasted a file in /system/app. Thanks :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] akenis:
Awesome! That seems like the easiest and most familiar method for me. One last question before I flash away:

My PC is already set up with Odin 3 ver 1.85 and 64bit drivers that I have used many times to flash several Samsung Epic 4G (Sprint's Galaxy S). In the black banner at the top it currently says "Epic 4G." Is my Odin and Driver setup also compatible with Note N7000? That would be great because I still need to flash old Galaxy S also. Pit file is victory_8g_100528.pit. Don't need pit file now, but is it different for note?

Download Odin from op to ruleout any doubt.

Never select pit / repartition option unless proved otherwise you are advised specifically for it. So here don't use.

Remember wrong pit file can.lead to haed brick. All models hav own pit.

Hi everybody,

I've just upgraded from rooted GB to Open Germany ICS LPY (no CWM) using mobile ODIN without any issue. So far so good after 3 hour of usage. After first boot, stock Camera application freezed 3 times, I made a reboot and now it works just fine.

Just my 2 cents...

With possible bug, maybe best to not have CWM recovery?

Thank you so much. Love ICS!
