If you choose pc odin then select the tar file in pda field, dont touch anything else and hit start. Flashin it with pc odin will raise custom binary count and yellow triangle, you can reset it using triangle away app. You can also use mobile odin it will not raise binary count.

thanks for all your help.

now, downloaded the lite version from chainfires thread. upon installing, it says to download a file. i download it and try to install, but the installer says cannot be installed. i tried to select kernel from mobile odin without installing the flash kernel, but mobile odin quits.

what to do now?

when i tried to check triangle away, it says current status cannot be determined, we need to reboot in a special bootmode. when i tap reset counter, it says this could brick my device. is this safe to do?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeetu1981:
Try restarting mobile odin, i always extract tar to pull zimage and then select it in kernel field in mobile odin.

Did you already flash custom kernel using pc odin? If no then why using triangle away and if yes then why using mobile odin? M confused.

No connection to hidden network

Hello. I tried to connect my collegue's SG Note to our wi-fi network. As long as I had the SSID broadcast on it did connect, got an IP and so on, but when I turned off the SSID broadcast the network was "out of range". Om my own SG S3 I have no such problem. Once the settings were saved, the S3 always finds the network and connects, even though the SSID broadcast is turned off. I could not find any settings on the Note to make it connect to networks which do not broadcast their ID.

Does anybody else havef this problem?

It has a stock ROM. :confused:

I hope that this is not the wrong place to ask this question.

Go to this thread you will be able to download a Pre-Roted GingerBread ROM to flash via ODIN.

GingerBread is a safe base to start off from.

You then be in a position to download a custom ROM and flash it.

If you can't remember how to find, download and flash a custom ROM then start at the first post of this thread. You need to read, read, read - all the info you need is there.

There are loads of different ROMs to choose from you will need to look through the Note N7000 forum and investigate the ROM's available.

Reading your post you have some serious catching up to do :rolleyes:

Go to this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1424997 and download the prerooted GB ROM from Dr.ketan's signature. Then flash it using Odin PC. After flashing it you can go into recovery and wipe data safely.

Edit: You need to boot into download mode to be able to flash using Odin.

After flashing the GB ROM and wiping data/cache you can download any another ROM and flash it using Odin PC. Just never wipe using stock ICS kernel. That will brick your phone.

GB because it has a safe kernel. You should never wipe using the stock ICS kernel. You can flash that GB ROM

Well after reading your original thread, you mentioned that you wiped in recovery using stock ICS. That is not good. You might be affected by emmc bug. :(

I might be wrong though, but as far as I know if you wipe on ICS and you can't flash GB or anything else with NAND errors then you are bricked.

I don't know what next to do but there's a method which reparations your internal memory but you lose 3GB in the process. Better wait for someone with more experience to confirm this though. Good luck anyway...

you willl get lines when in front of an aritficial light ejecter that is the screens or etc things.. but not the way you shown in the pic.. i gues just flash the same rom you flashed before.. if it is a stock rom then download the stock rom n flash it again from odin on pc.. (no need to wipe the data if you flashing the same version of the rom )

i had camera issues too. i just flashed the same rom (the stock lp5 4.0.4 ics ) again from the odin (i had copied it from C;/users/(my username)/AppData/temp/binary/GT-N7000/INU/DD , here a zip file is genereated after the download is complete on kies.. n you can get the file with extention .tar.md5 if you extract this file from that zip .. just for knowledge so that if there is a JB update (i guess its wil come up on devember) you can copy it so that you will have a safe backup of the stock rom when you update your cell via kies) you can copy this file n flash it from odin if at all you have that zip file or else.. this is done by Dr. Ketan

he have al the zip files uploaded to a thread..

Go here if you are in india and want the stock india version of 4.0.4 ics : Indian Stock Version

if you want some other version then go here : All stock version

first go to the thread and read the whole thread with warnings n all .. n flash the hydracore kernel 4.3 again .. it will then give you faster responses and the CWM recovery :D :D :D

hi xda,

l've been spending time reading up on how to root my N7000 and started the process of installing superSU thru recovery while not being connected to the PC. When i went into recovery mode, before even attempting anything, i found the error....

E:failed to mount /data (Invalid argument)

E:copy_log_files_to_date :: can't mount /data

I had bought the phone under samsung warranty with GB and updated to the official ICS 4.0.4 wirelessly when it became available a few weeks ago, never rooted or flashed. It still boots fine, no bricking of any sort, its just that when i try searching for info on the error, i only find threads where users are in the middle of a potential brick.

Was wondering if anybody might be able to point me to the correct thread or if they can shine some light. Don't know if this could be a reason, but my first ICS update attempt was thru PC Kies, which failed just the same as i've heard happen to others and during the wireless update it had frozen at a certain point, forcing me to reboot before ICS appeared. Also i was wondering if it matters whether the phone is encrypted or not?

Thankyou for your time

go here read the coment.. it would guide you how to copy the file when it is downloded from KIES.. n then you can flash with that file from ODIN.. if you dont know what i am talking about then go here , download the latest file from this thread n then flash it as it is said by Dr. Ketan http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1424997 and then you can root it by updating the zip file from stock recovery http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1329360.

I would advice that you flash the ICS directly from odin n then flash hydra core v4.3 kernel from odin (by ticking the phone option in odin and then pointing it to the zip file) this may give you a yellow triangle (you see a triangle before the cell phone is booted..) n then when done flashing it will reboot the phone but the phone wont boot. it is becuz you dont have your data wiped yet.. now you go to recovery you will have CWM recovery cuz you flashed the new kernel.. and you then wipe the data . now you will still hve the yellow triangle error and a increased binary counter.. you can download TRIANGLE AWAY from market (you will have to buy it, idk if there is a free lite version of it) n then you can remove the triangle n also set the binary counter to 0 (means no .)

NOTE :

BINARY COUNTER is a counter that counts how many times have you flashed something that is not signed by the samsung .. you have your warranty untill this binary counter is showing a NO which eventually means ZERO

you can check it in download mode (hold volume down + home button + power button untill you see a screen then press volume up button.. )

OR

if you are on GB n you have a safe kernel then better wipe it first then flash the ICS from odin then you wont have ny probs..

Compare kernel and rom is illogical

You can compare different kernel on same rom Or vice versa.

Or you can compare different rom.

Kernel can make difference in performance with different rom. But major difference is rom dependent.

Hello :)

Hi,

Great thread, life saver for many people i would imagine.

I have a question, I'm in the process of rooting my friends Note, now i've done the super user / root method and also flashed the second file for busy box from this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1329360

He is on:

ICS running 4.0.4,

Baseband is XXLRK

Kernel Version : XXLRK CL811902

Build number: IMM76D.XXLRK

Now all i want to do is flash a decent rom onto the phone, i hear it's slightly different on the Note to the SGS3 (which i have myself)

Am i right in thinking that there is no CWM for the Note? And as such I need to pick a rom which is using the same firmware ie: ICS?

So can i go ahead and simply put an ICS rom made for the N7000 on the EXT SD card and flash via stock recovery.

Many thanks and my apologies if i sound a little hesitant to flash away, i'm attempting to avoid any complications.

:)

There is CWM recovery for the Note. You can flash HydraCore kernel (or any safe kernel) using PC Odin/Mobile Odin. After that you can wipe data/factory reset from CWM recovery and flash any ROM you want.

Just avoid wiping from stock ICS kernel to prevent eMMC bug. If you install a safe kernel, you can wipe from recovery safely. Otherwise don't wipe.

If you've access to a PC & ODIN, then why not drop the Note back to GingerBread (pre-rooted) to use as a safe & stable base from which you can flash *any* ROm you or your friend chooses.

For example you can download CyanogenMod9 (CM9) an ICS ROM, copy to the Note SD card, from within GingerBrread reboot to CWM (since you have installed the pre-rooted version) and then simply flash CM9 by selecting from the SD card.

That is what I would do (it is what I did in fact), instead of all this faffing around...it's quick and dead easy.
