worked for me - at least no issues on the phone.

maybe its psychological, but having re-calibrated the phone battery again (after rooting), it appears to be working better. :-)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] dio62000:
Hi, I used to be on pre-rooted stock ROM LA6, but then flashed ICS stock ROM LPY and CWM.

Then I read that there is a flaw in ICS kernel and that it's a risk of doing anything with CWM other than use the root, so I decided to roll back to pre-rooted ROM LA6. This was working fine (I think), until this morning when there were all kinds of forced closures (agenda, phone and another one that I forgot, battery was hot probably due to this and lost 4%) which made my Note useless. So I flashed ICS through PC Odin, but again the phone had a phone fc and I had to wipe/factory reset the Note. After that there were no problems with ICS stock.

But now I don't have root anymore and since I'm a bit concerned about flashing CWM I wonder what's the best and safest method to root ICS?

And did anyone else have problems with rolling back to Gingerbread prerooted?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] JayGB2011:
So from my understanding this adds CWM / busybox and Root to stock ICS on any region. Great!

This would still leave us open the the eMMC brick bug though?

If so....

Couldn't a stock ICS Kernel with just the eMMC erase commands be added to this post? To provide an all in one solution for people? So that they can then flash, wipe etc and be safe?

Works a treat!

Well after having early non official ICS, no radio and a few issues.. I used PC Odin to role back to stock GB. Stuck with no root for a while, decided do a I really need it... well later I did but upgraded via Samsung Kies to Stock ICS..

Just saw this and read through... just tried it, I have a 64gb Card so had to put files on both internal and external memory as CWM did not like 64gb card.

Confirmed full root, I can write to system! - what a quick and easy root method!!!

Hello

I have a Note from UK Vodafone and upgraded to Official ICS via KIES when KIES told me there was an update.

I have followed the instructions and all appeared to work but when I rebooted the device after the procedure and loaded up Titanium Backup it tells me that I do not have root access. I have tried the procedure as listed in the first post several times and it all seems to run through correctly with no errors. I just cant seem to attain root.

FYI, my phone reports the following from *#1234#

PDA: N7000XXLPY

PHONE: N7000XXLPT

CSC: N7000VODLP1

Any ideas?

Thanks.

Dear all,

Am currently running stock ICS 4.0.3 build DXLP9

Baseband: N7000DXLP5

Would like to root my device, but the following are my queries:

1) Will my current data (sms, whatsapp) in the device be wiped out?

2) It mentioned about temporary root, does that means that everytime I need to flash a new custom ROM, i need to go through these steps again?

3) Any custom ROM to recommend that comes with S-Note, S-Memo and S-Planner working?

Where to put the files

I am having a problem at the first steps.

My problem is where to put the files. I put the CWM.zip files in /sdcard but it is not visible. When I click on 'update from external storage', I get an empty listing.

Do I need to have a external SD Card installed to make this work?

Can someone let me know which directory to put the two files - CWM.zip and SUPERSU-Busybox-Installer.zip - in?

Dr Ketan's guide says - Download the [CWM zip] and put in your Ext SDCARD ] And [ SUPERSU-Busybox-Installer.zip] to SD card (internal memory)

What does Ext SDCARD and SD card mean here. Is it :

SD CARD = /sdcard or /mnt/sdcard

and

Ext SDCARD = /sdcard/external_sd/firmware

Please help?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] dr.ketan:
ext sd card means movable external memory card.

sd card means inbuilt internal mory card 11gb

as i have mentiined clearly

cwm goes to ext sd

busybox file to int sd

after files placing properly, when you select update zip from ext sd, you will find cwm in root directory, without navigating elsewhere.

you must have ext sd card.

Nandroid Backups

Hey guys,

I've read in another Post about people with Galaxy Notes flashing stuff and making nAndroid Backups.

I have a Note and i rooted it using this method presented here. So there is this update now that says that backups are bad and we should not do backups.

Is this update still up to date? because i really wanna flash something onto my note but not without making a backup in case something goes wrong.

So is it still not recommended to make Backups using the CWM and stuff?

Greets

Mind
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] sam.wilder:
So this means I cannot use this method without having an external memory card.

Is it possible just to create a directory and work with that. My first thought will be No, but still wanted to cross-check.

Also which AbyssNoteKernel should be used used. I know it is 4.2 , but should I use the Redpill or the CWM one or is it just a case of preference.

By the way Dr ketan ur guides are quite helpful.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] dr.ketan:
You need to have ext.sd card then only you can use this method.

I have no much experience on custom kernel.

Hi,

I have Baltic (SEB) region Note and updated it to latest ICS ROM (N7000XXLQ3 / N7000OXXLP7) using Kies.

I was unable to obtain root applying steps described in post #1, after installer run there were only 3 files (dexdump, vfp-crasher and busybox only 68 kB in size an no su) in /system/xbin.

Finally I realized that there might be not enough space in /system. I modified uninstaller script to delete /system/app/VideoEditor.apk which is 35MB an executed it. After that installer succeeded.

So this is to let you know, maybe there should be some check in installer script, it seemed to complete successfully although it did not.

The way you rooted your GB was thru PC Odin. You may do that in ICS too.

As with CWM (recovery) it won't be getting binary counter or exclamation issue.

You may follow Chainfire's guide on the CF Root thread.

Correct me if I am wrong, but getting the official release of ICS 4.0.3 from the operator (Cosmote Romania) means I have the stock ROM, isn't it? And as I said, I tried twice.

I have stock ICS rom (XXLQ2 - I updated phone with Kies) and CF-Root with yellow triangle at boot, which i want to remove, Triangle away is one option, but as Chainfire wrote, it is potentially dangerous, so I wont to use method from this thread.

Can I just directly re-root (or unroot) my Note with this method? Or I have to install stock rom first?

Does it resets binary counter? (I do not know how to check it)

Also, is it possible to use other kernel (AbbysNote for example) and not to have yellow triangle at boot?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] dr.ketan:
Yellow triangle will goes off with flashing any Stock kernel, but flash counter won't.

You can check it by putting your device in download mode, on Lt upper corner you can see flash counter.

If you trust there is not a single case reported brick by using Triangle away, but sure there is reported brick with ICS which you have installed. so

if you are really worrying abt flash counter, then Triangle away is only choice.

Or keep using as it is, either yellow triangle or raised counter won't affect functionality of device at all, what all required is for just warranty purpose. you can reset it later, if you need to reclaim warranty.

can't get to recovery

Not trying to hijack the thread, but since the question was asked, I will add that I, too, am having difficulty making this happen.

1) I just updated to stock ICS on my ATT I717 note and, as expected, lost my root privileges that I had added to the original Gingerbread stock rom.

2) I shut down the phone, removed the SD card, added all three files from this topic to the card, and reinstalled the SD card on/in the phone.

3) Trouble begins....

I can enter download mode with ease (Vol Down, etc), but when trying to reboot to recovery holding the three Volume Up+Home+Power buttons simultaneously, all I get is a constant pulsating at one-second intervals.

If I wait and release the buttons after the "Samsung" logo appears, my phone boots normally and never enters recovery.

If I wait and never release the buttons, the phone never stops pulsating.

I have googled and searched this forum for hours and have not found an answer. Am I a totally clueless moron, or just a clueless one?

Any super simplistic help on the button/boot-up sequence for entering recovery is appreciated.
