Thanks for the important info. It is a sign of recovery indeed. I'm trying now to help two guys, who bricked their phones and had very same situation. So I'll inform them about it.

In my opinion - don't try to restore anything from previous backups.

Just go to Red Pill recovery, do full wipes, and try to flash any custom 4.03 LPF from scratch.

But it's only my opinion.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] incisivekeith:
I did the full wipe from redpill's recovery before reading your post. I don't really mind flashing a ROM using PC Odin, but I want to avoid it, as I am not sure which ROM will surely work and which won't in my situation. If the PC Odin stops at "Factoryfs" again when I try to flash a "wrong" ROM, the only way to do anything beyond that would be to pull the battery out and reboot the phone, which will bring me back to the "recovery with Kies" message, and I will have to go through all the steps again to arrive at the point at which I am right now. I would prefer flashing a CWM flashable ROM instead of a PC Odin flashable ROM (please point me to links if you know where I can find these ROMs).

I am also in favor of a GB ROM right now, given the uncertainty about the ICS ROMs and because of what I am experiencing. Please let me know if you know which ROM and method would work for sure (I know this is trial and error, but still, a little certainty would help).

If others have other good ideas too, please let me know. Thanks.

no, I answered a question and posted the link to the COMPLETE discussion I have not told anybody to use this kernel.

Btw. I have no wifi problems with this kernel.

He asked for kernel, an not for ROM.

I use this kernel wie the LPY-ROM and no issues (yes I know that the kernel is - perhaps - danger like the LPY).

incisivekeith,

Sorrowfully, I don't know what to say. PC Odin is not a safe (or not fully) option to proceed.

I was trying, in your place, the following:

Recovery - Full wipe (including mounts and storage formats, including emmc), and then flash 4.0.3 LPF custom, such as Alba v2.2.

But I suggest to collect some opinions from respective devs here.

Read last few pages.

You are posting just to fame and flame.

Its been told a lot if times, if there was no bug in official ICS there would have been 0 super brick incidents.

I have faith in Devs at XDA (why would they spread lies?) and now even a Google SE confirms there's a bug.

If you wanna live with your folly assumptions, fine. Just don't say ICS is safe if you have no facts and reasons.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] kent_lkc:
It's kinda interesting reading posts in this thread.

At very first saying wipe will kill sgn om lpy, then both lpy & lpf has bug.

This is what I've done to my sgn

1. lc2 upgraded to lpy, wiped

2. roll back gb then flashed one more time lpy

3. from lpy to lpf full wipe

4. rolled back kj1 then lpf again

5. full wipe and sgn still alive and running smoothly.

among all flashing jobs only one time using Odin3 the rest was done by Mobile Odin Pro.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] rajendrakumardbg:
I did not want to discuss this topic anymore as everyone has his or her own opinion so i cant change you neither can u do the same. But when you quote i post for fame or flame there is a problem I will tell you why I post...

1. Every forum on XDA has instances of brick or superbrick this is the underlying risk (about your 0% brick theory) we all know but the difference is user mistakes are identified first then anything else is blamed. Why else do you think that you lose your warranty just by rooting your phone..

2. I don't say anyone is spreading lies that is your assumption, I just think it is being blown out of proportion that is my inference you are welcome to disagree on that..

3. I have flashed my earlier phone not less than 400 times with kernels and roms posted here by developers from this forum so no need to say that I trust them ..But please also think about the samsung developers are they so inept considering they have more resources and are better organised...

4. Those who have already flashed the rom and are not experimenting with it anymore why so much panic to get them back to GB with utter confusion and do some mistakes in the process...

4. Please post any external reliable sources to confirm your claim which is unrelated to XDA:)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] M3TALLICA:
Enough of this for me.

1. Wiping data from recovery is not user mistake.

2. Something not related to XDA..... Hmmm Did XDA hire Google SE (and ultimately Google itself ?) to spread lies ? Why would he risk his career at Google by confirming in open forum that there's bug ?

End of the story.

Have a nice day.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] jaskiratsingh:
If you read it, it says ICS Leak. Note that LPY is not a leak. It is available through KIES. I dont say that it will not harm the device but what i have noticed is that people who had leaked version on their device, had their notes bricked and ones who didnt have a leaked version, didnt brick their device.

Also note that there are chances of bricking the device during flashing. I have been using Android Since November 2010 and flashed firmwares in Galaxy3, galaxy S, Galaxy SL and now Note. I have bricked G3 and Galaxy SL many times during flashing, when there was no issue of kernel bricking.

I am using ICS since it was released, flashed though Mobile ODIN and PC ODIN and loving it :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] helmerjensen:
OMFG

Since the latest leaks for the Samsung Galaxy S2 line up have been hitting us left and right, people have been jumping between ROMs—mainly between buggy, pre-release ICS builds and very stable GB.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] lexid01:
totally right! i also guess that many ppl confusing lpy with lpf and flashing in wrong steps. actually here we are again, do we talk here in this forum about LPY or LPF? :) going to get some cold beer and watching CL B/C:) cheers.... see you guys tmr...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] dr.ketan:
I dont want to make any aggressive argument, but seeking a link which suggest bricking on LPF

(note case sgudn't have flash LPY prior to LPF, as this can be happen if he/she have already damaged device while on LPY, N result appear on flashing LPF.)

So does any brick case existing on XDA, who have bricked note while flashing GB to LPF ??

Now it is almost 48hrs, if i remember correctly on LPY quite good number of bricking cases were reported in such time.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] gattari:
Damn.... all this tread give me the brickfobia ....
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] hchxoom:
Others might disagree, but I believe pc odin to be the safest and most foolproof method. CWM and redpill are onboard scripts designed to make flashing more convenient... they are not necessarily safer. I'd suggest you pick a stock ROM from Dr Ketans thread of stock ROMs (you choose if you want rooted or not). Like you,I'm in the US so can't choose my region... I'm running the open German LC1 (gb), so can say that runs smoothly. I'd focus on getting the basics right, then add a CWM kernel and/or custom ROM later if you so choose. Eliminating some of the variables by going full stock may ease your efforts. Just my thoughts.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] lexid01:
we should open new thread and ask exact this question! bricked? how? from XYZ to XYZ1? etc.. would possible help everybody even devs! .... but since im junior, i ask around before i open one thread:) what you think? cheers
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] rajendrakumardbg:
Wiping from recovery on what rom which kernel and the process followed to arrive at the recovery and how many times can be a user mistake...

Every other source talks about ICS leaks give me any other post hinting at LPF apart from entropy's... if you dont have the same please stop there....

I cant believe why people think this rom is bugged keep on posting in this thread please ignore those who want to flash will flash anyway. Please contribute in CM9 thread that is as safe as heaven...... :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] panyan:

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] M3TALLICA:
Official ICS to CM9, nice diversions.

You are just playing words. Yes, flaming and faming.

Everyone said LPY was ~!@# and ~!@#$ till they saw/experienced superbricks.

Now there's LPF, are you sure the kernel does not have the bug?

I hope you are not the next to post stuck at factoryfs.img.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] incisivekeith:
Update 2:

Thanks. Actually, that's exactly what I tried. I tried flashing a stock kernel which worked and I was happy to see that. As I was able to restore system during my earlier effort, and now with flashed stock kernel, I tried flashing the stock LC1 wipe ROM. Unfortunately, even though I had somewhat of progress, the PC Odin flashing of LC1 got stuck at "Factoryfs" message. Anything else I can try?

I am not claiming or challanging though there is no reason for not believing too.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] vladovns:
ICS to GB Is a downgrade. I did not know you can do downgrade over FOTA / Kies. ...

From what is implied it seems that the bricks happened during downgrade or from non original Rom to ICS

There is no official statement from Samsung that upgrade from GB to ICS over FOTA/KIES can brick your phone.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] vladovns:
I downgraded successfuly from LPY to LC1 via Mobile Odin. I am not a developer but from what i can gather LPY is no wipe Rom so the bootloader does not change and its easy to switch back to GB. LPF is changing the bootloader and you need to use pc Odin. Can't list the steps but there are plenty guides you can use here.

Can't explain the brick scenarios. Once i softbrick my note but Google helped me ;)

no bootloader selected

also selected re partition

it installed correctly.

i used rom toobox to change the dpi to 240

that worked but dialer was small and off centre

so i had to use. i think dpi modder to set dpi bk to 320.

that when i had problems

it wont go past the n7000 screen.

so i tried to reflash the same way tith pc odin.

if got 70% and got stuck on datafs.

now my phone is in a repair shop gonna cost £20

to fix.

with this small box that holds lg and samsung data stuff.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] incisivekeith:
I don't have the answer to your question, but just make sure you do not wipe using a custom CWM, as that bricked my phone. Also, just be very cautious with LPF ROM. I would wait for a few days before doing anything with this ROM as there may be some solution that would protect devices with LPY and LPF from bricking.

Issues after installing LPF

I was very happy with the performance after installing this stock ROM. Yesterday night, I thought of trying the new Parano... ROM, released yesterday only by Imika.

Booted into recovery, installed touch recovery, wiped data/factory reset. It got stuck on wiping data for like 10 to 12 minutes. Wiped cache, wiped dalvic, rebooted reovery and installed rocket rom v23.

After restarting the system, it got stuck on Samsung GT-N7000. Booted into recovery, tried to wipe data/factory reset, it got stuck for 5 to 7 minutes, gave an error in red something like unable to access /data and rebooted.

Since, then I am trying to install stock GB roms using PC Odin, it says pass on that but on restart, gives me an error while installing CSC files - "can't access to '/system/csc/TGY/system' something.

Tried to repartition using the 16GB pit file and install stock GB again, same thinig. Tried to install GB Bootloader and flash stock gb.. Still same results.

I am thinking of visting SSC tomorrow as they are closed here on Sundays :-(. If anyone can think of anything that I can try, please let me know.
