How to flash CM10 on rooted GB stock>

Hello all,

This is not for me but for a friend who saw me rooting and flashing custom ROM on my S3 and wants to have CM10 on his note as well. I've tried reading the forums but couldn't find how exactly to flash ICS/JB rom on top of GB stock. I've succesfully rooted it and installed CWM. I tried flashing CM9 and CM10 but ended up with flash error. I tried with TWRP recovery too but still no go. I read somewhere here on XDA that we can't flash ICS directly on top of GB rom. So, what is the procedure to do that? Do I need to flash any modem before the rom? If so, which one do you guys think is the best. I'm really sorry if this has been answered before.

Also, any suggestions on which ICS/JB rom is better in terms of stability and the best kernal to go with it. I do realize that most of them might still be in Beta like CM but just want to know which one is better among the existing ones. Thank you so much in advance. I'll be really grateful for suggestions.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Froid:
You most likely flashed an older version of cwm and twrp. Grab goo manager from the market and use it to install the latest twrp recovery by chosing menu while in the app and install open recovery.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Invincible Madness:
Thank you so much. I'll try that once I go home. Also, do I need to flash the latest modem or flashing CM10 for Note does that automatically?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Froid:
Modem most likely isn't included in any build. The gb modem you have will work fine or you can flash an ics modem. That won't affect the flash or the usability of the ROM. Keep the modem you have if it works well.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Bubba:
And if your friend is not much into modding the phone himself ... I'd suggest an ics ROM .. As we all know they are just more stable right now. You might find yourself being his personal tech support.

Stupid question .. can we discuss warranty

Just wanted to move this out of the dev thread. Not that I'm expecting a heated battle or a flame war .. Just the dev thread is not the place .. This isn't really either .. but it is mine and we can continue here. Plus I posted it as a question .. so we are legit .. lol. Hopefully it could be beneficial.

I agree that the system you describe would be nice. But doubtful it could ever happen. I'm sure if it was a reality some would just then create a hardware issue to try and cover the brick .. like an inoperative power button or something. And then I'm sure that Samsung or ATT would have an extra expense of deciding which issue is legit and which is not .. surely that cost would get passed along to us consumers.

Yes there is known hardware issues .. and I do agree that rooting and flashing did not cause them ..

I agree that the simple fact of rooting "shouldn't" be considered voiding the warranty .. but if the manufactures say that it does .. and they are the ones supplying the warranty .. then it does.

I think we are pretty much on the same page by the way it sounds .. but as for now .. the warranty is what it is. I'm am just fed up with all the "I bricked my phone" threads that lead to "send it in under warranty" suggestions. Fraud is fraud .. and it's just a poor suggestion .. IMHO.

Also I invite anyone who wants to chime in .. keep it civil .. no flaming ..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] dictionary:
I 100% agree with you. People trying to scam I can't stand. It'd be nice to know that Sammy trusts us enough to know the power button (random example) is their fault, and that I didn't intentionally brick it to get a new phone. People seem to not realize that they themselves are the ones screwing us over. I used to work insurance and it was the same thing. People complain about rates going up, but file false claims.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] wase4711:
if any of you came from sprint in the last year or two, you are aware that they explicitly say that rooting does NOT void you warranty..

and, that was on Samsung phones..

so, is it ATT that says they warranty is void? Cause on Sprint, rooting a Samsung phone did NOT void your warranty
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Bubba:
This from Samsung website:

Under what is not covered:

g) defects or damage resulting from improper testing, operation, maintenance, installation, service, or adjustment not furnished or approved by SAMSUNG

It doesn't list rooting but I would think it would fall under this. Searching the internet you will get a 50/50 response. Still searching for the answer.lol
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] wase4711:
well, I can actually speak from experience on this one, having had a Samsung S2 with a stuck power button.

I went into the sprint store, and told them I was rooted, and had a defective power button. They told me that it didn't matter if I was rooted, and proceeded to check the phone out, see that it had an actual defective button, and gave me a new phone, no questions asked, and no discussion about rooting.

I knew prior to going in that Sprint has had an "unofficial" policy of not hassling people with rooted phones when it came to warranty claims for at least a year or more, and I am almost certain that they actually made it part of their official TOS.

I guess its one of those things they wouldn't talk about on a television commercial, but, allowed the company owned store employees the freedom to allow.

I don't support or condone fraud in any way shape or form, but, when something is actually defective due to normal wear and tear, someone needs to stand behind their products. I am certain that Samsung gives Sprint some sort of defect allowance, and Sprint in turn uses that to keep good customers, like I was at the time, happy.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] studacris:
I'll chime in.

Yes, rooting your phone voids the warranty, but like stated previously, if the hardware is defective through no fault of your own, I see no problem getting a warranty exchange.

That is why we have ways to reset the flash counter.

But... if you were to try and modify your phone in any way, and that fails and the reason your phone doesn't work... then that is your responsibility. The manufacturer did not make you flash anything. That's where the fraud line is crossed.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Bubba:
Agreed Studa ...

Here we go from Samsung website under cell phone warranties:

THIS WARRANTY IS NOT APPLICABLE IN ANY OF THE FOLLOWING CASES:

The warranty card is not duly filled and mailed back to the service centre for registration by the purchaser.

The completed warranty card is not presented to authorized personnel at the time of repair.

The product is not purchased from an Authorized Samsung dealer.

The product is not used according to instructions given in the instruction manual.

Defects caused by improper use as determined by the company personnel.

Modification or alteration of any nature is made in the electrical circuitry/ or physical construction of the set.

Installation/ repair work is carried out by persons/agency other than authorized by the company.

Site (premises where the product is kept) conditions that do not confirm to the recommended operating conditions of the machine.

The original serial number is removed, obliterated or altered from the machine or cabinet.

Defects due to cause beyond control like lightning, abnormal voltage, acts of God or while in transit
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Bubba:
That is pretty clear but as Studa states and dictionary disused earlier ... actual defects do happen. I've had mine for about 7 months or so ... It has a single pixel out on the screen ... Legitimate defect ... But I can live with it for now rather than chancing issues a replacement may bring.

The website also states:

This warranty is confined to the first purchaser of the product only.

I for one did not know that. Figured the warranty followed the phone. Food for thought.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] wase4711:
yeah, I wouldn't bother with one bad pixel for the exact same reason; the replacement could be worse than what u have..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] gregsarg:
Great info gents...thank you.......g
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] DARKCHYLDX101:
Has anyone tried swapping out the back housing of the carbon blue note with the white housing or an n7000 housing? I wanna change my frame from carbon blue to chrome. They have n7000 housing on amazon for $19. Or would you say it's not worth it.

Found one on eBay for $9.78 free shipping. I717 casing. Wanna replace because I can see scratches in my frame and chrome would look sexy.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] thescholarlydroid:
Carbon Blue replacement cover (ATT I717)

My note's battery cover has some visible scratches on it from the days before my case arrived. I've looked around on Amazon and Samsung's site and I couldn't find the Carbon Blue battery cover which I am quite fond of. I haven't checked eBay yet, but is any other source that has them?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] captemo:
the most stupid question??? probably

i was a pretty heavy flasher in the Infuse world, but have a Note now. been hesitant to root the Note, but i got an itch and it needs to be scratched. i know all the hazards and risks, just had a super basic question. only cause it never crossed my mind with the Infuse, but i am thinking of it now.

IF i decide to root and resume my flashing fix, do i still get the support from AT&T on the simple things....voicemail, pay my bill and other phone technical issues?

like i said i know its stupid, but i just never had any voicemails come through on Infuse after rooting. dont know whether or not it was the fact that i just didnt have voicemail set up.

is it something i have to set up after flashing every rom?

just realy hesitant to root Note when the main issue seems to be random reboots and the possibilites of flashing wrong rom (international version) and needing the JTAG service or a jig which i obviously dont have.

i know there are quite a few people here from Infuse. is it easier to brick Note?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] wase4711:
ATT supports your phone, period..

My ATT voicemail works fine no matter what rom I load on the phone, and I have loaded a lot of them

After flashing most roms, your voicemail works as it did before

Don't flash the wrong rom,read the OP's of any rom you want to flash, and decide if its right for you BEFORE you flash it

It took me about 30 seconds to root this phone...ultra super easy

If you don't know what you are doing, or you aren't sure before you do it, don't do it...That way you will never brick ANY phone..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] DARKCHYLDX101:
No problems here. I came from the Infuse too. When I got my Note I played with the stock for a day then rooted the next. But I did my homework first read instructions, watched YouTube videos before hand. If you decide to root I would suggest using the latest twrp recovery found in the original developement section or goo.im for i717.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Bubba:
Welcome captemo ... As stated above .. Rooting is easy, TWRP rules as a recovery, and as with your Infuse ... Just make sure you read before flashing. You'll be fine. It's a great and helpful community here ... Welcome home. :D

Edit:

Check out the super everything thread. It's a good collection of all things Note. And come back here anytime with questions.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] captemo:
yeah BubbaJoe, you had replied to apost of mine about rooting a couple of months ago. you also pointed out the stupid question thread. i figured this qualified.

i have been doing nothing but reading here, mainly cause i need that confidence that i wont eff this up. i am sure i can pull this off. i just wonder if i will suffer more from ramdom reboots than i will benefit. only i can decide that. been researching a rom that will be as solid as possible.

this new Jelly Bam looks pretty promising
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Bubba:
The random reboots come from the Jelly Bean roms due to the fact we don't have source yet. There are plenty of them to try ... But I am perfectly content with my ics rom. I flash the JB roms and try them out .. Then come back to the safety and comfort of ics.

Even rooting and freezing the bloat will give you the added benefits with the stock rom.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] DARKCHYLDX101:
Just updated the twrp from 2.3 to 2.4 through goo manager and got stuck in a boot loop. Can anyone confirm it's not working? ...I know back to stock for me. :(
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] studacris:
You should be able to just Odin a working custom recovery. The cwm threads here have Odin flashable links, from there you can flash the working version of twrp.

I haven't updated mine to either confirm or deny the new version works or your download was corrupted.

[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] :
You will have to download the firmware from dock73's thread from dev section. Read second post of that thread to know how to use odin etc. And use that thanks button instead of saying thanks in a post, it is there to reduce useless posts.

[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] :
Ok wait i'll tell you what to do.

Get a firmware from this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1465800

After that download odin v3 1.85.

Download and install samsung mobile drivers.

In download mode of your phone press up button untill it shows downloading screen.

After that extract the firmware and odin zip in same directory on your pc. Open odin.exe

Connect your phone with usb cable to pc. You will see yellow box on odin. After that put xxxxpda.tar.md5 in pda, csc.tar.md5 in csc and modem.tar.md5 in phone box. Click on start and you will be done. See above thread for images and more instructions.
