Anyone installed it already?And is it safe to flash it with mobileodin,i mean will it keep the root if you flash it that way?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] norge-xda:
Good question. I'll try as soon as the download finishes

However - and I'm talking about ppl like me having a German Note - as I saw with other Android devices, updates via Ota on rooted Rom (just rooted without CWM) save the root. Anyway, given that I have a custom rom, I'll try mobile odin and see
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] stianhf:
I downloaded the update via checkfus and installed it via Mobile Odin. Everything works OK, still root after update finished. It it not a wipe rom.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] DTHC:
:) I am downloading it to

Just not shure about it,they have just put it online,and is available only for Germany.Maybe it is safer to wait that the dev's explore it :)

Do u think that the entire rom would do the same?

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] norge-xda:
If u have mobile odin, yes, normal procedure.

Via Odin PC I can't say. It can be but there is the risk it changes the bootloader (unlikely but possible)

First ICS for Note

N7000XXLPY	4.0.3	2012 May	N7000OXALPY	Open Germany posted to OP

This is Non Wipe version

Installation note : How to update from GB ROM to ICS

WARNING : Please ppl w8 sometime, CF said he reported some hardbricking I/O bug in CF root LPY, thogh only small ppl affected, I advise to w8 before flashing CF root kernel LPY.

There is no reported harm to flash ics without cf root(stock kernel + root no cwm)

stay tuned for next instruction

Install using Mobile Odin safely

- Download N extract ROM

- Copy Extracted file to a folder e.g ICS ROM On Ext/Int SD card

- Download CF Root for LPY

- Extract CF root till get zImage file

- Copy zImage file to same above said folder in SD car

- Open Mobile Odin

- Select 'Open file' N point to ROM file

- select Kernel tab N point to zImage file

- select Ever Root option

- Flash

- You will get ICS ROM + Root + CWM

Note After flsing finish, it will optimize installed application for ICS, then will auto restart

I have experienced Applicatioin installer crash first time, Then i have restarted device

Then again application Installation happened N worked Normally

Titanium Backup, checked. I have restore one old app N worked without issue.

Edit :

Had hard reset device from setting - backup N reset

Wipes cache partition from recovery

Reinstalled app from TB, without any issue

Though some have reported, I don't find any issue with wifi, GPS, Titanium backup/restore, wipe cache, hard reset. everything remained smooth.

Opera browser carshed when restore with data, just removed data N works fine. wave launcher 1.8.0 was crashing, but resolve once updated to latest 1.8.1

Google Map ownhere mod have issue initially, but went fine once reinstall.

No more issue i have noted.

My sales code changed to KOR, but still no issue in reading local language (I can read indian language)

Good Luck!

Note : If you have i9220 bootloader, dont use pc odin, mobile odin will work. There is no way to remove bootloader till now .Chaifire have brick his device due to this. AFAIK i9220 repack LP5 only have this bootloader

Source : from chantier's post

Who are non rooted stock can flash with PC Odin

Flash CF root kernel with PC Odin( that will raise counter)

Installs triangle away apple n reset counter

Note: I have read triangle away works fine, I have not tried myself
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] musashiro:
thanks... provide a way wherein we don't get any binary count or triangle... and specify if it is a wipe or not... THANKS...

some users have reported that triangle away doesn't work on this one..
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] khunjj:
I am on rooted ICS now. Do I need to go back to GB or be able to proceed with your installation step right away?

Thanks,
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] musashiro:
ive done this but i did the kernel separately... the same result...

avoided wiping the device... if i get errors, i will then wipe the device...

customize, update apps and exploring at the moment...

again? i dont have cwm installed

is there a good reason to install it? ive never had to use it on the note.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] The Transporter:
Or you can flash those stock roms, already rooted :-)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] ccampbell1:
Thanks to dr.ketan for the guide!

However, I followed the guide and I am bricked - upon bootup, it gets past the N7000 animation, but then stays at the pulsing "samsung" logo forever. I have waited many minutes. After waiting over 15 minutes, I tried a battery pull - same result.

I have never been on an ICS ROM before, I was coming from GB Rocket ROM v23.

I'm sure I've missed something I was supposed to do :-(

Any help would be much appreciated!

Thanks!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] fscherz:
It seemes that I had luck!

I updated with Mobile Odin and just injected Everroot, SU & Odin and it worked, even with all apps and configs, no wipe! Did not check CWM so far4... just playing first time with device :)

Yea me too wants to know the same thing ,,i am on unrooted LC2 and dont want to rooot as well ,,,can i use PC odin to update or not?

Thanks!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] norge-xda:
Hence no, u don't need to flash CF root too :) To keep the root, ofc flag everroot on mobile odin

Well, CWM allows you to have a complete back up (an image in fact) of your note, it allows you to flash zip from recovery and CWM Manager allows you to restore system, cache, data and kernel you backed up, even choosing what to restore (for instance, just kernel and system, leaving your data as they are)

---------- Post added at 04:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:31 PM ----------

Just flash it so :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] betoNL:
So...how this first official ICS for the Note feels like?

Is it way better than the (modded) leaked ones? Is it 100% functional as the good n'old GB?

Yes..I got lazy lately and my beta tester carreer is over ..at least for now ....:rolleyes:

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] norge-xda:
I'm just experiencing an annoying problem with voice commands and display off here.

Apart from this, it seems working good: no fc in agenda, no lag in listening music with BT headset, wifi works, s-pen works really good...so, atm no bugs comparing to leak
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] musashiro:
for me yes.. im loving it.. i did not wipe anything.. except dalvik... and everything is smooth as butter...

only thing is that Zombie Runaway game is not working.. stuck on loading.. but everything is working...:D
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] gurnishdhillon:
Great ,, so i can use PC odin once the download finishes :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] evil-doer:
ok im a little freaked out right now. i did the directions to the t and it flashed, rebooted, everything seemed to be fine.. started drawing the top bar with the signal and battery levels, and samsung apps icon on the left, but underneath it was just black, no wallpaper or icons, then it went totally black, pressing home button or power does not bring the screen back on. did it power off? or is it doing something in the background and i should leave it?

i guess it powered off.. is this bad? i long pressed the power button and it started up again.

nevermind. i guess this was what dr.ketan was talking about. it just wasnt described as it powering off. he said crash
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] betoNL:

You have to flash back stock ROM using Odin, then repeat the procedure, but don't use DPI changer from market, instead download root explorer and edit /system/build.prop manually by changing DPI, and restart after ...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] ccampbell1:
Hi all!

Sorry for posting again - if this is not the right thread I will move.

So I seemed bricked after flashing the ICS md5 file using mobile ODIN per dr.ketan's instructions - everything appears to flash correctly, but then upon boot it will pass the animation but sit at the pulsing samsung logo forever.

I've since tried flashing GB ROM N7000XXLC1_N7000OXALC1_N7000XXLB2 using PC ODIN - that resulted in the startup animation looping (small progress I suppose).

I am at the moment using PC ODIN to flash an older GB ROM N7000XXLA6_N7000XXLA4_N7000XEULA1 to see if I can at least get the device to boot.

Can anyone please suggest what I have done wrong here? Was I supposed to be on some particular ROM, bootloader, or CSC or whatever before ever touching the ICS ROM? If so, what, and how would I install those?

Sorry for dumbo questions.... Starting to panic that I'm perma-bricked now....

Thanks!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] musashiro:
someone shared this link somewhere and this is the one i used....

dont know why i trusted the one who mentioned it but its good...

looks like the same file...at least the same size....

Edit: Forgot to mention, I use one of those download managers

.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] k1ng617:
I'm no expert, but if you can get into recovery "down + pwr + home button" try clearing cache, wiping data, and dalvik cache.

Good luck!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] gurnishdhillon:
DO u need to be rooted to be able to "clearing cache, wiping data, and dalvik cache." ???
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] jUsT2eXy:
Same thing happened to me. I have just gone into CWM and wiped cache, dalvik and factory settings etc ... I will let you know if this works.

EDIT:// WORKED.... It is installing ICS applications just as Dr Ketan stated. You will be fine!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] gurnishdhillon:
do u need to be rooted to get into CWM to do this?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] k1ng617:
It's been so long since I've been in stock recovery I'm not totally sure if there is clear cache or dalvik. I know there is the option to do a complete wipe though (which if I'm not mistaken also clears cache).
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] wonsanim:
Ohhh!!!!,I don't complain I just downloading like one hour:p
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] olisun39:
Anyone?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] jUsT2eXy:
In CWM options you need to select are:

Data/Factory Reset

Wipe Cache

Go to advanced and then Select Wipe Dalvik

Yes you need to be rooted to access CWM
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] ccampbell1:
Thanks jUsT2eXy and k1ng617 - after installing the older GB XEU ROM, I was getting the same looping boot animation. I did a battery pull and entered recovery using Home+Power+UP-arrow - it immediately did a multi-CSC apply, and then I had options to wipe dalvik, cache etc. I did it and hooray! unbricked!!

I successfully flashed the GB DBT ROM, and now am flashing the ICS ROM using PC ODIN and - ooooooh - it just booted!

Thanks a lot for the help! Time to play!

Cheers!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] jUsT2eXy:
No.

You need to use Mobile Odin or PC Odin.

Mobile is preferred.

Hey all,

I just flashed N7000XXLA6---------2.3.6-------2012 February-------N7000XEULA1 to collegues phone and all would appear to be well.

And it is now showing the following when I do *#1234#

PDA N7000XXLA6

CSC N7000XEULA1

However, when it is attached to Kies it is saying the device is not updatable.

If I do *#272*[IMEI]# it is showing XEU and there are no choices at all!

Can i restore a GB CWM Backup on ICS LPY ROM using CWM recovery..???

As the bases are different, will i get stuck somewhere..???

Just wanted to be sure before flashing ICS.. :D

Is it possible to install ICS using CWM option to install firmware and at the same put the new CF Root?

I've seen some post away that I should use Mobile Odin instead of CWM, but I don't know if there is any explanation for that (in fact I've been using CWM for all the GB stock firmwares and it worked nice)

And then i did downloaded http://download.chainfire.eu/163/CF-Root/SGN/CF-Root-SGN_XX_OXA_LPY-v5.3-CWM5.zip CF - root. and extract it till the z-image. then i downloaded the rom and extracted it to .tar file. i did put everything in one folder and copy to sd card. Then i did instal mobile odin pro and in mobile odin pro selected "open file" and i selected .tar (file of the rom) and it said the folowing partitions have been set: Krnel System Cache Modem Hidden. Then i clicked Kernel tab and selected z image from cf-root. iv'e checked EverRoot, superuser inject mobile odin inject cwm manager and click flash.
