I'm sorry you're having troubles.

Were you able to successfully flash back to stock rooted using mrRobinson's instructions? Did you ensure you have the clockworkmod.com recovery installed? What do you mean by "it doesn't even get that far"? How far does it get? What error message are you seeing?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] stevensmith2000:
Just a quick question. I used MrRobinsons method to root, then installed the Tether and cell standby zip. I noticed you said it required the stock framework_res.apk so I'd have to reapply that update. I was hoping you meant that it would reinstall the stock one and I wouldn't have any issues running the update.zip. But I received a status 7 error.

Is there an easy way to re-install the stock framework_res.apk, or will I have to competely revert back to my image before I installed the tether update? I've done some searching for the stock framework_res.apk but have not been able to find one. Any help will be greatly apprecaited.

Here's a zip file that will install the stock UCALEM framework-res.apk. I just pulled it from the nandroid backup I made right after rooting (hint, hint). :) Please report back if it works or not. If it does, I'll add it to the OP.

Tried all 3 recoveries

I went back to my previous nandroid, installed the LG1 zips, and after installation went straig to TB and had no problem debloating :p

The only step I omitted this time was flashing/running Ashaman v1.15[debloater]. The first time i run it, there was some apps the debloater didn't take out, so I moved onto TB and thats when I found the problem

I read careully this thread' OP's...

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1732039

...didn't find any specific reference that

it had to be

a LEM build, thats why I went ahead and flash it

I dont know if it had anything to do with TB not working, but that was the only thing I didn't do this time...

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] drothenberger:
That error means you are using the Team Epic recovery and not the clockworkmod.com one. Flash one of the first two recoveries attached to this post and try again.

The Team Epic recovery works well, but it was original built for the Sprint phone, so "ro.build.device" reports d2spr and not d2att. (You could also try commenting out the first two asserts in updater-script if you really want to use the Team Epic recovery, but I haven't tested that.)

Of course not! Sorry if I said something to imply I thought you were.

I'm still on CMW 5.5.0.4. I'm downloading the CMW 5.8.4.5 to try it. I just don't know what else I would have done to make this not want to install but I guess if the new CMW doesn't help me out, I'll be going back to stock to try to get this installed. I do appreciate your help and I bet that file would be useful to have around anyways. I've only had the phone a week, rooted it with stock_root67 file from the no trip thread, installed the tether/cell fix update and had been too busy to mess with it since, until I started getting update notifications. Figured I'd get the update installed before doing too much else with it for now. I'll keep you updated as to what I had to do. I do greatly appreciate your help.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] drothenberger:
That will solve that problem for sure. See my previous post a few up for the gory details why.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] stevensmith2000:
Okay so according to this post, this seems to be my problem too. I used the CWM linked from the no trip root thread. I'll be updating shortlyl to let you know if I'm successful.

---------- Post added at 09:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:02 PM ----------

Yep, installing as I type. I actually meant to download and install the newest CWM before I asked about the framework apk but I figured that would be my biggest culprit to my issue.

Thank you very much for your assistance.

I747UCLG1 AT&T OTA update

Worked exactly as hoped drothenberger - so far so good. I used Odin to flash the rooted UCALEM image, so as you mentioned no restore from the nandroid backup was necessary / all apps and everything is exactly as it was with root preserved.

I was going to start going over the spreadsheet of Samsung bloatware that can be uninstalled / frozen and wondered how much time you spent on dealing with that issue? -gh67
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] lukerv:
I am using the ROM Manager downloaded from Google Play which flashed v5.8.4.7 recovery over the recovery that I used for rooting (the Sprint Method). When I tried to flash the "no_bootloader" version of this update, it gave me:

E:Error in /sdcard/I747UCALG1_OTA_No_Bootloader.zip

(Status 7)

I am stock, rooted, with TB freezing some apps, and Go Launcher.

Am I using the wrong CWM? Or? Please help. Thank you.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mpazevedo:
One of the many reasons never to use ROM Manager on the most recent Samsung phones. You should have CWM 5.8.4.5 Anything later will not see your FAT32 SD Card.

You should also flash a clean rooted stock, because some of the updates involve updating files you may have deleted.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] drothenberger:
That means that /system/framework/framekwork-res.apk is not the version expected for the OTA. Did you apply any modifications or themes? If so, you can try flashing this zip to restore the stock framework-res.apk and then retry the OTA flash.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] lukerv:
Thank you so much. I guess uninstalling my theme and launcher didn't do the job. Flashing the framework first did the trick. Thank you again.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] horr1blek1tten:
Can I flash this in stock recovery I don't want to root
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] drothenberger:
Maybe. There was a thread about someone flashing the unmodified OTA using stock recovery and having it wipe the /data partition, though.

If you're not rooted, why not just accept the OTA from AT&T directly? The only reason I can see is that you'll lose Universal Search.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] horr1blek1tten:
Cause I unlocked it for use with T-Mobile
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] drothenberger:
I don't know the details about how the unlocking is done, but the OTA zip in this thread is just the one sent by AT&T with a few minor modifications:

Removed the updated recovery

Removed the update to Google Search

Fix permissions on the "su" binary to preserve root

Everything else remained. So there's a good change that the zip in this thread will undo your unlock if the stock OTA from AT&T would, and vice versa.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] drothenberger:
You're right! Thanks for the heads-up. I forgot to copy the modified power-profile.xml into the framework-res.apk.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ElBeaner:
Ok not sure which of the options to flash

I am on a stock rom - Nostalgia 7.1, have google wallet mod installed and rooted. No other mods.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] drothenberger:
I personally flashed the full one, with the bootloader. I think the package I created without the bootloader is not correct. I just looked at Adam's post in the Verizon forum, where he includes a bootloader Odin package, and it includes aboot, sbl1-3, rpm, and tz. When I removed the bootloader, I only removed aboot. I'll fix that in a moment in case you want the no bootloader option.

To flash this OTA you need to be on completely stock with no modifications. I don't think it will work if you're on a custom ROM, even if it's based off stock, or with the Google Wallet mod applied.

But the zip here may not be useful to you, anyway. If you plan to stay on Nostalgia, then maybe you only want to flash the modem and kernel from LG1. If you're plan is to go to LG1 stock, it might be easier to just flash the root-injected LG1 available in this thread.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ElBeaner:
Ok, then I guess I'll hold off on it since reading it sounds the only thing was removing the local search functionalility.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] drothenberger:
IMPORTANT NOTICE FOR PEOPLE THAT FLASHED THE NO BOOTLOADER OPTION

The OTA included new images for several partitions: aboot, rpm, sbl2, sbl3, and tz. I mistakenly believed that only "aboot" was the bootloader, but based on Adam's bootloader Odin package for Verizon in this post, I now believe that all those partitions represent the bootloader.

I've already fixed the zip files in the OP, but if you flashed the No Bootloader package in the past, you may now have a weird combination of LEM and LG1 bootloader partitions. I suggest you flash one of the two bootloader only packages in the OP (also below) to get a consistent LEM or LG1 bootloader.

UCALEM Bootloader

Bloatware / brick

I'm not sure where to put this but saw that sgloki77 was in the process of removing bloat which I was doing also using the spreadsheet and the "app drawer" method is all I can think to call it which (if it can't be uninstalled) was just using the apps manager dragging the app to the info icon and then choosing disable or if it's not an option then uninstalling the updates after which it becomes one.

After doing this to a few I suddenly started getting a "stock not found" message randomly appearing and disappearing. I finally decided to just restore from a backup and booted to recovery. When I looked at the list of backups the dates on half of them were 1970 (I thought I saw that addressed somewhere) but the dates on the last ones I did were a month off. It failed and after that wouldn't boot at all. I would just get a gray battery icon and shutdown.

I should have had plenty of juice but let it charge some more and still got the same thing.even trying to boot back into recovery. Finally I got it into download mode and from another post that describes recovery using Odin and fixboot.tar which I downloaded it succeded got a "pass" and it rebooted but stopped at "Samsung" - I took the sd card out and was able to boot back to recovery. I got it to boot to recovery again and tried a factory reset but that failed. The only available internal backup file was still dated 1970 but it worked and restored to where it was before I started trying to remove the bloatware..

Can anyone please help explain what might have happened - how to avoid (best way to remove bloat and a source of minimal bloat control that won't potentially have the possibility of that happening again? Has anyone else had backups that were suddenly just month off as opposed to saying 1970? The clock was right. I still have CWM 5.8.4.5 / what situations would advanced backup/restore be needed and what options would you choose. At least I was able to get it boot even if it hung with Odin/fixboot.tar but I have no idea why the only backup available internally dated 1970 would return me to "normal." Thanks for any input -gs67

Yes, they should be fine. They are based on the LG1 framework-res.apk and SecPhone.apk. I built them from the APKs I extracted from my LEM->LG1 phone, but they should be the same as yours.

this is what it shows..wtf, it should say LG1 not LEM... What do u think this is happening?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] drothenberger:
Sure looks like you're still on LEM. I saw your post in the other thread about this. I don't have any idea what's going on, but I would hold off flashing LG1 mods until you're sure you are actually on LG1.

You could try flashing the OTA zip in this thread. If you're really on LEM, it will work. Otherwise, it will safely abort. But with the IMEI business right now, I'm hesitant to suggest anyone flash anything.

Hi, i'm currently making an application using the android.telephony library. But i need more information that the one provided by the api. I have two problem. First, the phonestatelisten seems to be not sensitive enough. I'm using onsignalstrentghchanged and the value gets updated not very often. In my opinion, the hardware is capable of being more sensitive wich means there must be a way of telling the listener reduce the threshold before stating the signal as changed and update. But i looked in ril and it seems the information isn't there.

And my second problem is related. It's that the neighbor list is getting populated only when the device is looking to change the antenna its linked to. I would like to constantly get all the neighbors scanned by the phone.

Does someone have any kind of information about that please?

I'd really appreciate your help. Thank you.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azzledazzle:
Its called a nandroid :)

get yourself CWM recovery and then boot into it, Go to back up and job done, It will create a nandroid.

Now all you have to do is boot back into recovery and restore it when you want !
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] palmerx:
Thank you azzledazzle. I'm very familiar with CWM and Nandroid backups I was thinking that maybe there was another way. Does the Nandroid backups also backup the kernel? or would I have to downgrade to stock GB kernel first if I want to downgrade from ICS?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azzledazzle:
I do believe it backs up the kernel too, However i wouldnt recommend restoring a GB nandroid from a ICS ROM, I would suggest to flash GB in ODIN, then restore nandroid.

Flashing with odin only takes 5 mins :)

It might work, restoring from ICS to GB via nandroid, But i havent seen any confirmation on this, and what with the bricking risks and all that, Its better to be safe than sorry !
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] palmerx:
Thank you again. That makes sense.

One last question... maybe if you don't know someone else might:

Are all Gingerbread kernels the same, I mean are all 2.3.6 kernels the same for all Galaxy Note Stock ROM's regardless of CSC? Or is there a possibility that my current GB 2.3.6 ROM is not "compatible" with one of the existing GB 2.3.6 kernels (in case there is more than one)?

For instance if I go back to my firmware with CSC TTT and install a kernel for say CSC XME, will that work? and which CSC will my phone end up with, TTT or XME?

Thanks again for your help. Much appreciated.
[HTC Sensation] tekken1972:
what is the linux box mentioned in the unbricking devices?
[HTC Sensation] sshede:
Gonna go off on a limb here and say that by linux box they mean a desktop or laptop running Linux. The most common and user friendly distribution is Ubuntu. Linux distributions are free and usually take 20 to 40 minutes to install. You can install them side by side with Windows or OS X or completely replace either.

Some applications are made to run specifically under Linux, that's why you need one. If you wanna try Linux, I'd recommend going here: http://www.ubuntu.com/

If you feel you're more of a power user, I'd recommend Fedora.
