CF root kernel is same like stock kernel + emms erase cap command disable + CWM

Just one remark, the CF root kernel does NOT have the erase command disabled

For the rest, thank you for all your work on XDA making useful and informative threads.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] dr.ketan:
Cf have patched cwmr and can't pass bad command to kernel, so you can safely use it for wipe cache/wipe data/nadroid backup restore

Isn't it?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] friedje:
Yes and no, yes he did, but the command is still present in the cf-root kernel and can be activated when installing zips that issue a format command.

So it is not 100% safe
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] dr.ketan:
Yes thats why i have started using notecore kernel and also refers same in my guide, as galvin have add.double protection, he using cf's safe recovery sonce v10.1 and have disabled emmc driver command in his kernel.

"10.N7000 ICS Bootloader - Flash as PDA in Odin with/without pit(depend on situation) - For expert user only"

Can u plz check the file?

I get md5 mismatch when trying to flash in Odin?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] dr.ketan:
I can't check md5 without running, re download and try.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] shawnthecableguy:
Yeah, I tried 4 times..

The file name is "N7000_APBOOT_N7000ZSLPF_CL558430_REV02_user_low_ship.tar.md5" and the file size is 2551KB..

I downloaded the GB boot loader from the same thread for comparison and it downloaded as a .zip file?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] dr.ketan:
Here I have uploaded, try this and report me back

http://d-h.st/IR9

GB rootloader is zip, but you need to extract to .tar

You can't flash zip file on PC odin
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] shawnthecableguy:

The filename was saved as .tar.md5

Btw...I have never done a EFS backup before, all the times I have rooted and not lost my IMEI, I can always change my IMEI to another IMEI number. I will try the EFS backup now, where do I store the backup?...does it get stored on my phone memory?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] dr.ketan:
Yes it will on sd card.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] SealsNavie:
Can I ask, is it possible to change my IMEI number somehow?

Let me know.exactly which rom you want to have gb or ics? I dont think ics was issue for data, b'coz as per information u still having same modem.

Just let me know ur desired rom i will tell u steps
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] JonyLelo:
Which rom?

Hi Doc, and tks for the quick reply.

So I still have the same modem with ur rooted GB, and now I have no problem with H+ data. But with ICS and the same modem i could not get cellular data, so it must have been the ICS, no?

I just don't trust ICS, yet because it may brick, I have problems etc.

I will buy a new Galaxy Note 2 when they are available in September and will keep my Original Galaxy Note gt-N7000 as a spare tire.

So my current phone has to be stable so I want to stay with your rooted Gingerbread, and maybe update to 2.3.6 keeping root.

So I need to populate the CSC which is currently empty and I can't use stock samsung keyboard. How to do this?

The current modem LRK works fine except my battery does not last long, so maybe you have another suggestion? for a modem?

Thanks for all your help

John (JonyLelo)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] dr.ketan:
Here is newer and stable GB ROM, selecy one of it and use Mobile odin to update it.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=20963730&postcount=3

You will find guide how to use mobile odin on same post above.

Keyboard error is because of CSC is empty. You will get samsung keyboard with new ROM, If after installing new ROM keyboard error remain then let me know, it can be corrected in 5 min by reflashing CSC.

Same here, in HK and I finally upgraded to 4.0.4 from rooted GB thanks to all Dr. Ketan's handy instructions. Runs very stable and I even have better battery life than 2.3.6.

Hi. Where can i find CWM Recovery to Note? (N7000 Stock, rooted 4.0.4 + kernel NoteCore v13), if it's possible - flashable by Mobile Odin.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] dr.ketan:
Its function is already available on Recovery once you have Notecore.

You cant get separate CWM as application, it comes along with kernel only.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Pre100n:
hehe you're the man :) I used CF-root 5.3 with CWM till I read that it's unsafe, so I decided to use NoteCore and firmware LRK, and i didn't notice that there is CWMR included :)

Can I still use odin to root?

2.Samsung USB Driver - Requires to connect your device to PC

16.Samsung Kies

Hi Dr. Ketan,

I have never been able to connect to Kies. Always get stuck with message " Found New Hardware - Sammsung MTP device" and then it keeps on searching to install drivers for the same. My friends can connect their SGN effortlessly.

But I can connect as hard disk and transfer data to and from PC. Currently on ICS 4.0.4.

I would like to know if I can still use ODIN to root my SGN?

Regards,

Manjeev
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] dr.ketan:
Simply remove Kies, and just install driver.

Then connect device and wait till auto detect finish.

Then restart PC and use Odin.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] CocciSatch:

sir,

i just bought note..i want to knw that is it safe to flash custom rom ?? heard abt the emcc bug :crying:...if yes,so which rom...

thanx:laugh:
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] dr.ketan:
Avoid wipe on stock ics to be safe from emmc bug

First go for GB ROM and root it + get cwm (you may select prerooted, one on my signature), then flash any custom rom, that i recommend for bewbies.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] ayush1369:
thanx for reply

but m on ics 4.0.3 and rooted :confused:
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] dr.ketan:
If you planning for non ics rom, then still better go with gb rom first. Otherwise flash safe kernel on ics n flash ics based custom rom with cwm.

thank you :D

hello sir,

need ur help..m nt a nood,i knw abt Lg mobile coz i used to have optimus..but i lost it :crying:

knw very little abt galaxys ,so need a expert ..as u knw sir that m on ics 4.0.3 with root...i flashed custom kernel

notecore v14.1 oc ,,wrking gud but as u mentioned in ur post i got a triangle :(

1) should i remove it with triangle away and is it safe??

2) or, it can be clear with stock rom flashing with odin when i want before take warranty ??

plz clear me :( thanx
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] dr.ketan:
Flashing Stock ROM can clear triangle but not flash counter(you can see it on download mode, Lt upper corner), which is also same importance for claiming warranty.

You should earliest remove this with triangle away appl, b'coz it requires running device. In case of any problem your device unable to boot, then you can't use this application. so reset it now, and whenever you need to send for warranty, at that time you can flash stock ROM.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] ayush1369:
hmm k i will clear it..by triangle app we can clear triangle and flash counter and can i use this app after every custom kernel/rom flash ??

thanx in advance
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] dr.ketan:
It requires to use once, now u can use mobile odin/ cwm to flash custom things once u have root n custom kernel.

Remember triangle.away is not a.regular tool and should not b use as day to day application, it is dangerous tool, n should b use as savior only. Read triangle away appl op, what developer says.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] ayush1369:
k thanx :cowboy: one more thing..this app works on stock or custom rom??
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] dr.ketan:
All stock ics supported. Won't work on gb rom.

On custom rom depends on ROM. Refer to custom ROM thread for that.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] bobtodd:
Hi Dr. Ketan

I flashed and upgraded to the ICS Stunner ROM several months ago but I want to return completely to factory settings

My current setup:

Android 4.0.4

Baseband N7000XXKK5

Kernel: 3.0.15-I920ZCLP5-CL295568 se.infra@SEP-78 #3

ICS Stunner 1.4.19 Build IMM76D

Could you confirm that these are the steps I need to take:

1. Downgrade to GB ROM (using your tool)

2. Restore stock kernel (any advice on how to choose which one?)

Very n00b. I used to be good at this stuff, but I've been out of touch for months and I'm not confident where to start

Thanks for any advice you can offer!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] dr.ketan:
When you will flash stock gb rom with pc odin, it will also replace kernel too.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] bobtodd:
Fantastic - thanks. One last question - I put the downloaded .tar in PDA only in ODIN. Any other settings I need to check - reformat partitions, etc?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] dr.ketan:
No, re-partition shouldn't checked.

See post #2 of thread mentioned on first link on my signature, if you have any doubt.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] ayush1369:
k...i updated it...works fine but when i type i got null null :D

i tried to reflashed many times with wipe data n cache but came no where..

what shoul i do ???:confused:
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] dr.ketan:
You need to reflash CSC

I think you are on GB ROM, then do this

Open PC odin - select CSC tab - Point to same ROM file of GB, you flashed earlier - Flash

PS : This will erase your data, and if you are on ICS, before doing this flash safe kernel.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] ayush1369:
no..i was on ics 4.0.3 and flashed 4.0.4 with mobile odin pro:confused:
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] dr.ketan:
Then first flash safe kernel, then reflash CSC (you can use PC/Mobile odin)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] ayush1369:
k..from where i can get csc file?? and there is no csc tab in mobile odin pro :crying:
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] dr.ketan:
That is 'cache' in Mobile Odin, put same full ROM file. no need to find other.

1. Copy all files from the archive to /cache/fota/ or /data/fota if you have bigger ota :)

/cache folder is only 192 MB

i used root explorer

2. from adb shell:

su

chmod -R 0777 /cache (optional)

echo -n "--install_fota" > /cache/recovery/command

exit

adb reboot recovery

Done :)

ps. you can probably use internal or external sdcard locations for update:

/mnt/sdcard/external_sd/tmp_sec_fota/

Galaxy Note - Data access via ATT

Hello,

First, thank you for all of your posts. Your Toolkit got me through a number of things.. was able to root the phone and install the correct packs to get my NT-7000 past the network lock screen and to get my phone to work with my ATT sim.. However, I cannot get the data to work with ATT. Is there something else I need to do? Of course, ATT cannot help, have gotten no where with them.

Please advise.

Thanks.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] dr.ketan:
Check your access point from setting - more - mobile network - access point name

Try deleting existing and from menu select reset to default. if this not help you then try to write manually from other user of ATT.

also check you have set network mode to 'Auto'
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] NoteMan7:
Reply back on data..

Greatly appreciate the feedback.. I followed your suggested steps. I had already gone into the mobile networks, let it search, and selected ATT, but what I had NOT done prior what gone into the APN.. went there, none were listed, but I did a "restore to default" and this FIXED the problem. Ironically, it saw Cingular instead of ATT, likely they have not renamed since the change.. but all is working. Again, Thanks.

You needs factory reset to get best performance and battery management. But for that i recommend to flash safe kernel first then only wipe.
