[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Ettepetje:
Flashing a ROM through Mobile Odin with Everroot (used: no Supersu) solved it.

In my case the ROM wasn't proper (P1000???) even though it was mentioned as stock LQ2 in "INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS FOR ICS" (Gingerbread) here. It ended up in regular Recovery 3e complaining that the product ID of the ROM to be installed was wrong. :eek:

Fortunately I have spent a considerable amount of time with several android devices in all kinds of mayhem, so I didn't even break into a sweat. :cowboy: Just rebooted into CWM recovery (Franco's R6), flashed the latest GL_COOLNOTE (v8.1) kernel, rebooted into that recovery (through "Advanced" menu option), wiped data, wiped system (hey! no errors! :cool:) and did a clean (duh) install of CleaNote v4.0. After booting verified that indeed Nandroid backups worked again!

I'm pretty sure just the flashing with Everroot was needed, so people in a similar situation might do a straightforward flash of a recent (stock?) ROM through Mobile Odin. To keep root and stay safe you might need to select a matching (safe!!!) CWM/rooted kernel such as SpeedMod or GL_COOLNOTE before flashing. [Stock kernel is NOT safe!!]

Thanks dr.ketan, you put me on the right track !!!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] dr.ketan:
Usually such error mimics partial root, if you have tried installing busybox, may it be solved.

Anyway glad you got proper recovery.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Ettepetje:
Titanium worked, and didn't complain about busybox missing or anything. But you could be right that the act of installing one would fix something.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] dr.ketan:
Yeah it happens, if you have read many users complaining they can use titanium, but just can't change permission on system app with explorer. Thats is also case of partiall root. Btw titanium uses.its own binary except you select from preference to use system binaries.

currently running Cleanote v4 Custom ROM (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1716088) and would like to revert back to complete Stock (latest official ICS)

do i just flash N7000XXLQ2_N7000XEULP4_XEU using PC Odin?

or do i have to revert back to GB first?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] anjath:
you need to revert back to GB. that's coz you need to wipe data/cache while on GB then move in fresh.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] sameer_tangri:
I suggest you first flash a non-wipe Stock GB ROM using PC Odin, then boot into Stock Recovery, do a Data Wipe/Factory reset and get your phone up and running on GB.

After that you can flash any Stock ICS ROM of your choice using PC Odin.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] lightfire:
I have XEU phone. I have Germany GB Rom 2.3.6 and it is rooted via CF-root. Please someone verify I am upgrading using the correct steps.

1) No updates available per Kies or per over the air. So I want to get latest factory rom. My understanding is that XXLRG is preferred over the latest XXLRK. IS THIS TRUE?

2) So procedure, as I understand is to wipe existing data. My understanding is I can just do a factory reset. IS THIS PROPER METHOD?

3) Once reset is done, using ODIN PC vers 1.85, I select the extracted XXLRG md5 file extracted from the XXLRG.zip file via choosing, inside pcODIN I choose under PDA option, the XXLRG md5 file. Then hit start. CORRECT?

4) Will this procedure maintain root or do I have to re-flash other files? If I choose to not re-root (if above procedure destroys root) is there a way to get factory updates via kies since I just flashed an open Germany rom to a XEU device or does that screw up ever receiving factory updates on XEU and therefore I HAVE to re-root in order to get any more updates?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] dr.ketan:
1. If you have manually unlock your device then true, otherwise LRK is latest.

2.also wipe cache

e.g. Go to recovery(vol up+home+power) wipe cache and data

Then no need for factory reset from setting

(And you are already rooted, so may take backup with Titanium before wiping)

3.correct

4.You will lose root, and have to re root. Guide is available on post#1

Hi,

I have manually upgraded my n7000 from 2.3.6 (swiss stock) to 4.0.3 (england stock).

can I directly upgrade from 4.0.3 to 4.0.4 (german stock) ?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] lightfire:
Thanks for the reply! But I guess I don't enough to know what "manually unlock" is or was. I had stock XEU device then downloaded German open Rom 2.3.6 version, then using mobile Odin, upgraded. Then I loaded cf-root file. So, did I "manually unlock" it or not? Is there any reason not to flash the latest LRK?

Also, will I be able to update via kies (have XEU phone with German rom) if I do not re-root?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] vette95:
This is my biggest fear.

I PC odin flashed N7000XXKKA_N7000OXXKK5_N7000XXKK5_HOME.tar, which I got from the list on Older Gingerbread ROMs (Directly Rootable). Now I have the system FCing all kinds of things.

It advises to do a data/cache wipe if this happens, but it scares the heck out of me to brick my phone if I wipe the data from that recovery. This recovery does not have the option to flash zip from external card, and I can't get the phone to be seen in my computer because of all the FCs.

I guess I just want to make sure it won't brick if I wipe the data directly from the recovery that comes with this rom.

Can anyone please enlighten me on this?

Thank you.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] dr.ketan:
You are on GB ROM, and there is nothing to worry about wiping on it. And Fc is common issue after switching ICS to GB

just enter in recovery and wipe cache and data, everything will be allright.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Hasooboy:
I have flashed this rom http://d-h.st/HJM and i am using Stock ICS earlier now my phone giving me Null null error, now this rom has only one file which i have added to PDA now how to remove this error and which is the most stable ICS stock rom, my previous rom was XXLPY which i got as OTA update :@

After updating my wife's note I'm getting the following on all home screens. Wiping cache and data reset is not helping. Any ideas how to get rid of this?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] dr.ketan:
You said you have flashed GB ROM, and now you saying on ICS, so wat exactly?

anyway if you are on ICS then flash GB ROM, then flash CSC (open OC odin, select same GB ROM file, you have flashed for PDA, and flash it. This will remove keyboar error. Now flash any ICS ROM you desire)

Try flashing clean.

first GB - wipe cache and data -Flsh ICS

Thanks for concern, it is well and good if mod can do it

Otherwise just ignore it. some ppl can contribute this only. Viewership of more than 1 million itself enough to say everything.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Hasooboy:
Sorry i didn't mentioned in detail,

1- I was using STOCK OTA update of XXLPY in which i am unable to access Market and google services

2- Then i flashed it with ODIN by the ram which you have given in toolbox section and its rooted on installation i found it has Super user CWM.

3- That rom has null null error and also has calender problem too, so you are saying that the file which i have added in PDA at the time of flash now i have to add that in CSC and reflash again to solve the null error

4- Which Gb stock rom is best kindly suggest and is it safe to flash rooted Stock Gb over Stock GB

5- Which ICS rom is most stable and in all ICS, is it not possible to factory restore which causes EMMC error if so then suggest me a safe kernel too and how to patch it Thanks;

Can anyone answer these questions?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] nfribeiro:
Hi Dr. Ketan,

About the SIM Lock issue, I've unlocked my Note by unlock code, not by "patch" nv_data files such as Helroz Galaxy_S Unlock app.

So if I flash LRK will I lock it again?

Thanks.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] dr.ketan:
It will lock again, but AFAIK code will work.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] dr.ketan:
manually unlock means you have previously unlock network by entering some Code OR by patching with some app like samsung galaxy_s unlock.

You mentioned thing have no any relation with 'network locking' network locking means you cant use your device except operator have provided you SIM.

Updating have no issue with rooting, it depends on CSC
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] dr.ketan:
3 - yes. flash same ROM with CSC tab, it will erase data, and solve keyboard issue.

4&5 - you can flash any GB ROM

Latest ICS are all stable, but you can't wipe on stock kernel, you can choose kernel from various available (BTW i m not using, so can't say which is better)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] will5:
After sim code unlock I went from LRK to LRI, then back to LRK. It didnt ask for code anymore.

If you unlock by code, a value on an eeprom should be changed, besides nv_data and phone should never ask for unlock again. But with samsung we never know.

If I were you, i would go back to Gingerbread with PC ODIN, wipe cache, wipe dalvik and restore factory settings, then, again with PC ODIN flash the new ICS rom.

There are a lot of people that have succeeded and avoided bricks upgrading from 4.03 but a lot of them also have problems with camera, bluetooth and wifi.

I have always followed Dr. Ketan's advise and go back to GB then reflash ICS and I never had any problem, not even with wifi.

So, at the end is your choice, but that's my humble recommendation only by personal experience.

So,

install busybox and install binaries from busybox

use mobile odin to flash custom kernel

Go back to Gb ROM, root it

unlock using samsung galaxy_s unlock app from market

Avoid using LRK/LRI

However, after flashing a Abyss kernel 4.2 and wipe.....

during the wipe it restart the device it self.....

Downloading from odin stoped and does not process after write.......

What can I do and how I can get my note functional?

Hi,

I am on 4.0.3 LPT Turkey. I had installed this as clean by wiping at GB, then I installed LPT Turkey. At the end, I used BusyBox method mentioned in this thread for rooting.

Now I want to install 4.0.4 LRI Turkey. Is it wipe version?

Should I return to GB and wipe again?

or

Should I use mobileOdin to install with keep root only? Or which options I should enable?

or

I let Kies to update, and I root it again? If yes, how?

or

What should I do? :)

Hey Doc Ketan,

Wanted to seek your advice, I am currently on XLR1 and its fine to a certain extent. I have never been able to flash the CF-Root and be successful, but it does not matter. I have root and the temp CWM seems to work fine for me. The only thing that bothers me is wifi would reconnect after waking up but not work. It is easy enough to just switch wifi on and off to get it working again.

I am thinking of flashing the new N7000ZSLPM---4.0.4/12.07.18-N7000OZSLPM---Download---Hongkong just to see if I get a little more stability in the wifi department. You seem to have mention somewhere that this firmware seem to have some sim lock and unlock issues. I have never locked or unlocked my sim so it is possible to flash this?

Do you think there is any advantage to be gained by flashing in your experience?

Also I always use the Dr Ketan patented method of flashing to GB, wipe then flash ics actually on my note and as well as on my galaxy tab plus. What are your thoughts on flashing a "safer" kernel then wiping and flashing new ics?

Thanks for all your patience and hard work.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] dr.ketan:
I think you are rooted and on ICS ?

are you able to run Mobile odin?

You can flash newer ROM, as you stated GB - wipe - ICS

If your device not locked previously, then it won't re lock, even if occurs, now mode is available to unlock.

After flashing ICS

Root it

Install 'busybox' from market

Install binaries from inside busybox appl

Flash Custom kernel with mobile odin.
