It is Volume Up not down... Volume down + home + Power will bring the device to Download mode XD

That is odd.. Is the directory directed to your Micro SD-card when you select "Choose Apply Update From External Storage"?

Cause that is where you need to save the Zip files
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] deserthi:
Yes, I can see that directory and most things in it but not the .zip files. I have deleted them and put them back on the sd card root but they just don't show?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] j3ckl3r:
im having the same problem. at first it wouldnt even let me download the files because it said they were unrecognized so i downloaded a zip app and it le me download them. i saved them to my sd card held vup+home+power selected update from sd card but no files show in the directory
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] smack_t:
I had the same issue. I had to do it twice before it saw the files. Not sure why....but it worked.

can i use cwm to flash stock ICS n keeping my cf root kernel :D

as i read few posts as this is only a temporary root, if we need to do anything we still need to flash cwm.zip right? cos i will keep booting into recovery mode to clear cache n batt stats..

will there b any contradictions?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] ssassen:
My bad! Sorry!

EDIT:

Upgraded to German ICS and ran the procedure again and everything works now. I must've missed the part where it says ***MUST HAVE GERMAN ICS FIRMWARE INSTALLED***.

Cheers,

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] kirerux:
thanks

Thanks a lot for the answer! It seems ill have to get one on monday.

I have other question though if it's not to much trouble, I had my phone rooted before installing ICS, with easyroot by DooMLorD, I have the superuser app on my phone it's just that the other apps doesn't seem to locate it, any quick fix or the only way is just doing this root (which is not really hard I just don't have an external SD at hand).

Thanks in advance!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] j3ckl3r:
just a note. BE CAREFUL. i forget how i did it already. used zerg rush to install cwm. then flashed to ics with cwm

BRICK

started to download the stock rom... very slowly...

got tired of waiting for it to download so i thought, "hey i already have the ics rom that bricked my device, why try to go back to stock if i can try to skip and recover straight to ics?"

started up phone in download mode, ran odin pc, plugged in phone, loaded ics rom, flashed. oh hey my phone started. android upgrading screen. android version 4.0.3

so if ive lost anyone.. stock>brick>ics.. needed to zerg rush to get cwm to work first though. your best bet would be to use odin once you have root though, rather than bricking your device first. i would say that is a non essential step :P
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] dan97:
it works. i got 1 question

Hi

i am from HK and just upgraded to 4.0.3 stock ICS and successfully use this method to root my note. i have following question wish you can explain to me

(1) you said - Due to rising numbers of phone being bricked based on rumors and stuff, I strongly suggest NOT trying to use any nandroid backup or restore on this CWM and it is best we keep CWM out of our devices to do major I/O stuff. So far I have never seen anyone bricked their devices on this small rooting/unrooting process but JUST DO NOT MAKE BACKUPS OR RESTORES!

I use titanium backup, is that ok? as I am confused with the above statement - "suggest not trying to use and android backup on this CWM

or you actually mean the backup and restore function after loading CWM?

appreciate your answer.. thanks

Danny

Hi

I have just updated my Galaxy Note to the official ICS 4.0.3 update released by Samsung here in India.

The build number :IML74K.DDLP8

Baseband Version : N7000DDLP4

I just want to root my deivce, for now, I do not want to install any Roms. Looking to root just to add universal proxy support apps and freez all the crapy bloatware.

The instructions seems to be quite straight forward. I have just one question, will the above steps work even after upgrading to the official Indian ICS version.?

Please advice...this is my first time rooting any android phone ever.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] ravi_buz:
Everyone has to root it for the first time as after u update to ICS the root wont stay.

I have the stock ICS Indian ROM and used this to root it.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] MoonCocoon:
He means not using CWM backup or restore functions, just use it to flash zip file.

TitaniumBackup is fine.

---------- Post added at 12:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:09 PM ----------

Same problem here, I tried several times, but could not get a full root.

The only time I got a full root is when I flashed CF-kernel. Hope a safer CF-kernel comes out soon.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] deathst:
Alright i managed to obtain partial root myself and a fix for the Partial root is quite simple. You can install SuperSU by Chainfire and update the root. would fix the Partial root. Once you install this.. DO NOT USE the Superuser app and DO NOT uninstall the SuperUser app. Use SuperSU from now.

SuperSU - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=eu.chainfire.supersu&hl=en

Give this a try

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] j3ckl3r:
have you tried reading more than just the first page. there are 12 others with information. specifically my post. my phone would not see zip files. you need cwm on your phone before it will read zip files. read on how to use odin maybe, because that is what had to use to instal ics on my phone after cwm bricked it
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] comfy:
Can anyone check if these steps are correct? I've never rooted before, and have updated SG ICS from kies. The battery life is horrible so I'm gonna try to flash the ROM again.

Steps :

1. Root my phone via the method in this thread, this will give me root and CWM (right?)

2. Download SG ICS stock ROM and SG GB stock ROM from Sammobile

(got a darn hotfile account for this as free download was too slow ugh.)

3. Download Odin, open it

- select PDA tab and point to ROM file. Leave Re-partition, pit, CSC, Phone tab unticked

- Switch off device, Put in download mode (Vol down + Home + Power)

- completely close kies, Anti virus if running

- Connect device to PC

- ID com port shud turn yellow

4. Flash SG GB stock ROM through Odin

- wipe cache, data

5. Flash SG ICS stock ROM through Odin

Did I get that right? Also, do I need to do some sort of full wipe before all of this?

Hope someone would be able to help me, very nervous and noobish on flashing a ROM for the first time on my note :/
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Psxtreme:

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] j3ckl3r:
i totally got the idea of this post wrong.. i thought it was installing ics on a device... that explains my issues.. anyways. yeah i still had some issues with files not being detected when i tried to root ics. rather than choosing external sd i had to select the download folder when it booted to cwm recovery. the files were downloaded with qr code. but even before when i put them on the home directory manually they werent detected for some reason

ICS Rooting doubts

Hi All

I am from India and new to flashing/rooting. Recently got updated to ICS through Kies. I have some doubt regarding this method.

1) Will it work on Indian GN ICS update? The build number :IML74K.DDLP8 Baseband Version : N7000DDLP4

2) Once after rooting, if i do a factory reset from settings, will it create any issues?

3) I need to remove all the bloatwares from my G.note and then unroot it. Which app is the best and if anyone got the list of apps that can be safely removed pls share.

4) If i got a partial root, can i unroot it with the SU-Uninstaller and revert to the old state? (I do not want to use SuperSU for full root)

Thanks in advance :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] :
Do not do factory reset on ics or wipe...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] rowee270:
When I saw CWM was involved I was a little worried about bricking. However after reading through all the posts it reassured me it was relatively safe and simple - and it definitely is! Worked flawlessly here on stock German LPY.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] arbutchan:
So can i flash any kernel by this CWM?And should i unroot before factory reset?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] jasonkhoo87:
Because of the Superbrick issue... Feel nervou to do any rooting process. By the way, did anyone try this root method on Stock Malaysia ICS? Just want to make sure before I proceed..
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] anilgpt:
Hi, some confusion to cear.

If i used the above mentioned method without increasing count and do a root then remove some unwanted apps and then unroot, can i be able to do factory reset as CWM is temporarily loaded? Also if i will be able to restore to stock unrooted from odin without incrementing the count?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] :
Just dont do it on ICS. Perhaps if you flash xplodwild kernel and remain in recovery you can, that one is save or abys, but I dont know how, there are threads existing for that. Just be carefull

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] letters_to_cleo:
hi guys,

I just want to know.. I dont have as of the moment an External SD memory card.

Now if I want to root my Note (running on stock ICS), how would I save the CMW.zip and the SU-BusyBoxinstaller.zip?

I checked my Note's folder, and it seemed that there are no 'external card' folder on it.

My question is, would I be able to save these zips on to the Note's internal memory storage? and go to recovery and install it from there? I have a 'USB Storage' folder inside the directory of my phone.

Would it suffice to save these zips in there?

Thanks for the replies.

This is truly greatest method ever, I have tried everything only always getting max partial root, but this one flawless instalation, root access granted and so on, only one thing to mention before I could use CMW as a touch screen I had to restert the phone because I could not succeed with installing SU when I pressed install from external sd it woud not ract at all , after when I have installed CMW , tried to reboot the phon , worked perfectly!

I'm sorry if I'm a bit confusing you. What I mean to say is that, there is a file folder in the internal directory of my Note that says 'External_sd' (I don't have an external memory SD card chip) on my phone. My question is can I safely put the two zip files (cmw.zip and SUbusyboxinstaller.zip) on this internal folder and flash it from there, through Recovery Mode?

Or I can just create any folder in the internal directory of my Note and label it anything and put those two zip files in there and go to boot in recovery mode and flash it from there... right?

Sorry If my questions is a bit vague as I just want to reassure myself that I am really doing the correct process here...

Hi,

After I installed the CWM via recovery, the stock recovery changed to CWM.

I then proceed to install SU but was unable to "enter" any option.

The CWM screen just flickers, goes off and come back again.

Had to hold power button to restart the phone.

I then tried going to recovery mode again and the stock recovery program appeared instead of CWM.

I am from Singapore and I am running fully stock ICS rom from Samsung.

Hi all

My experience if it helps.

1 Bought XLA GT-N7000 last week, on 2.3.6 in the UK

2 Upgraded via KIES last night to 4.0.3

3 Installed external SD card in FAT32 format

4 Downloaded the three zip files (as may as well have the uninstall at sametime)

5 Rebooted on my note/ (volume up+home+power) and released power and 1st stage restore begins

6 Used up/down volume keys to select CWM zip (about 15 seconds total time before 2nd stage began)

7 used Touch but not ablke to select SU install.zip

8 Renamed this zip to update.zip and had two copies, one root of ES File explorer view of phone as paranoid backup/ latter in external SD card.

9 Back at 2nd stage - it now SHOWED me as second option, do I want to install update.zip

10 After selecting, a final prompt (surrounded by lots of NO's) - I selected YES

11 10 seconds later - job done.

12 Reboot - installed Titanium Backup, which asked for superuser rights/ and was given

13 HAPPY!!! total time <3minutes :)

You can flash a rooted kernel, read good comments on Francos and speedmod ones
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Nirak:
The root is permanent (for me it is) but CWM isn't , it's just a tool to install SuperUser and BusyBox, that's why it's on external sd card.

Due to the brick risk and me being a noob, i stayed away from anything else through CWM, i'm happy with my root for now.

But i'm also wondering if we can use this same 'temporary' CWM to flash themes etc safely.

What exactly are you looking for? A apk that runs scripts you give to it or just a apk that runs the script your talking about?

If it's just an apk that runs several scripts, the method to get them onto your phone will be the same I.e. You will still need the update.zip or adb push.

If it's just for one script it only takes a few lines of code, take a look on the portal one of the devs published a video on how to create a root app.
