Problem solved

PROBLEM SOLVED

THANKS TO Dr.KETAN because of him this problem for me has been solved

Below is the step-wise description.

WHAT HAPPENED:-

01.) I was on ROOTED GT-N7000 ICS 4.0.4 PDA-DDLRB CSC(K)-ODDLR4 M-DDLR1

02.) I decided to install Alliance ROM => AllianceROM_JB_N7000XXLSZ-v3 and by mistake and just out of habit instead of using ROM Customizer, I used Mobile ODIN with WIPE (ALL of them) Selected.

03.) Although ODIN didn't came up with any errors and showed installation successful, my phone was stuck on the first screen "SAMSUNG GALAXY NOTE GT-7000" screen.

04.) After waiting for about 30-40 mins. I took out battery, took out memory card and tried to reboot again but no luck.

05.) I tired to recover by re-installing/rolling back to ROM I was on i.e. GT-N7000 ICS 4.0.4 PDA-DDLRB CSC(K)-ODDLR4 M-DDLR1, but ODIN Shows an error saying "PARAMETER INCORRECT" (screen shot attached)

06.) I then tried to install

GT-N7000 ICS 4.0.4 PDA-DDLR9 CSC(K)-ODDLR3 M-DDLR1 but ODIN failed (Screen Shot Attached)

GT-N7000 GB 2.3.6 PDA-DDLB2 CSC(K)-DDLA1 M-

07.) Now my phone is stuck in two modes only i.e.

7.1.) "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies and try again"

7.2.) Download MODE

Dr. KETAN"S HELP (WHAT NEEDS TO BE DONE)

01.) Remove .MD5 from extension of ROM and keeping .TAR as extension help me got rid of the "THE PARAMETER IS INCORRECT" error.

02.) Go to Task Manager and close/disable/end process following service

02.1) KIES

02.2)FIREWALL

02.3)ANTI-VIRUS

03.) In ODIN (on PC) Select PDA do not select PHONE (this was my mistake too)

04.) In case you had/have HEIMDALL on your system , go to Device Manager (from Control Panel) and un-install the Generic Device driver

05.) Now try to install the stock ROM you have (it should get installed , at-least this happened in my case.)

WHAT IS TOTALLY USELESS ?

01.) KIES

02.) You PANICKING and FREAKING OUT

WHAT I CAN'T DO:-

01.)Visiting Samsung shop/service station

Hey guys,

I have rooted the GNote N7000 using CWM but haven't flashed any custom room. Still on official 4.0.4 rom. (Rooted as I wanted to put a ported Google Now app on it).

Now I want to do a factory reset. Is it safe to do so? Do I need to unroot it first?

Second, If i take it to samsung for repair under warranty, can i take the phone back in its current rooted (with official rom) status? Or do i have to unroot it first?

Many thanks,

B.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bad-Pixel:
Root breaks your warranty. You have to unroot the note.

Btw you should move (or ask to some moderator) this topic in q/a section, or in general.

Dev section is only for custom roms, kernels and mods :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nokiamodeln91:
You say you are rooted.. What kernel are you on ? if its the stock ICS kernel then its not safe at all to do a factory reset. First flash a safe kernel and then do a factory reset and then unroot by flashing the stock rom again to remove all traces of rooting for warranty

also as we dont know what method you used to root : go into download mode and check the binary counter if its 0 for warranty
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] noct:
Hi - when I purchased the Note (N7000) it's on stock 2.3 rom, then I updated it to ICS 4.0.4 via Kies (hence stock rom) and then rooted by going into CWM mode and flashed CWM-SuperSU-v0.87.zip.

All I did was rooting the phone using CWM, and I've never used Odin and flashed any custom ROM. I suppose I am on official Kernel? In the phone setting > about phone: it says baseband version: N7000XXLRB, Kernel: 3.0.15-N7000ZSLPM-CL901577

1. How do I flash a safe kernel if that is required?

2. How do I go to download mode to check the binary counter?

3. Do I have to flash stock rom to unroot? (I am not on any custom rom). If not, how do I unroot?

Thanks guys for your help! I got nexus 4 and am trying to reset this phone to then give my mom for xmas! Your urgent help is much appreciated! :laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh:
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nokiamodeln91:
1. To flash a safe kernel you can either install using mobile odin or the Philz kernel zip file from stock recovery. This will be needed if you want to reset your phone as doing wipe of stock ics kernel is unsafe.

2. Vol down + power + home then Vol up to continue

3.to un root you can flash the whole Rom again using pc odin.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] noct:
Thanks nokiamodeln91. So what i need to do now, is to flash a safe kernel, then reset the phone (by going to settings > backup and reset > factory data reset), then flash the whole stock rom to the phone to bring it back to unroot, correct?

2 more questions:

1. Where can I find this safe kernel to flash? Is it an official kernel? If it's not official, would that be an issue when the handset is set for warranty later down the road with an unofficial kernel?

2. Will flashing the stock rom back raise any flash counter? I will just use the latest stock rom from sammobile?

Thanks!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nokiamodeln91:
Once you flash a safe kernel boot into into recovery and do a wipe data factory reset.

Safe kernel ex. Philz, hydracore.. Look in the android original Dev section. You will find them

There are custom safe kernel and cannot be there on phone for warranty.

For warranty, you will need to flash the stock Rom using odin and will remove all the root add stock kernel back.

Will not raise counter.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] noct:
Just wondering, if I have to flash the stock rom which will overwrite everything on the phone including the kernel anyway, could I not just skip the first step: (flashing a safe (unofficial) kernel to factory reset the phone),

and just do the flashing stock rom using odin which will just bring everything back to stock (including wiping everything out)?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nokiamodeln91:
No. Installing new Rom will not wipe everything unless you install a wipe Rom. And doing a faculty reset is not safe on stock ics kernels.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] noct:
I am actually not very good at this and am worried i may brick the device. Can I just use the superuser app's 'fully unroot' option to unroot the Note, then take it back to samsung service centre for them to fully wipe my device and also load the latest rom for me? (They confirm that can do it for free for my note which is still under warranty)

Only concern for me is that, after i use 'fully unroot' feature in superuser, will samsung still be able to tell this rom has been modified and refuse to service it? I can confirm that on my device current flash counter is 0 (no), and it is showing as official samsung rom.

Uninstall apps that need root access and delete their folders before unrooting through superuser app.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] seattlestexan:
I noticed I could potentially change my icons and themes from RT, but attempting that on my DX caused bad results. Has anyone tried it with this S3 rom, or any others? GS3 SGH-T999 with Root66 4.1.1 T-Mobile rom with flashed boot animation enabler and CWM Touch 6.0.1.2 (I think)

Thanks!

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] G1Master:
For most part RT Pro works. Some Status Bar icons can be changed will others dont do anything. Ive noticed that some work like a battery icon change works visually but the percentage of the battery level was always off. I know boot animation can be used but on a CM10 based rom it does not store the boot ani in the right folder but I do believe it does store it correctly on a stock rom.

Never fails to try just do a Nandroid backup. I do it all the time.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] seattlestexan:
Okay, I'll give it a go after my next backup. I got the boot animations to work after flashing an enabler I found on another post. It still does the T-Mobile chime, but that's fine.

Thanks for the feedback!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] seattlestexan:
Tried RT Pro icons and it didn't do anything, other than bugger my accounts up. I just restored the backup from TouchWin to get it back. I'm curious if It's just where Samsung stored the icons, since some came up not found on system, or if Samsung has them blocked, and it requires an enabler, like the custom boot animations do. I'll have to finger walk a bit more and see if there's an enabler, or another app that can change icons. I looked into UOTKitchen, I think it was called, and It's got some neat icons I'd like to use, but I'm worried about using it to mod Root66, and totally screwing up the rom, or worse, fouling my phone up.

Any thoughts/suggestions?

Kindle Fire HD 8.9 Not recognized in device manager

Hello, I have nearly similar issue, but I'm in the worse situation. Few days ago I bought Kindle fire hd 8.9, after playing around with Kindle_Fire_Utility_v0.9.6 and Root_with_Restore_by_Bin4ry_v16, I was trying rooting my device, suddenly (or after next rebooting operation) my device turned off and never turns on again, no matter how much I charge it. I tried everything, hold power button for 20 secs, so on and so on, nothing works.

In some situations when I connect it to my laptop, Device Manager begins to constantly refresh and I as see between refreshes, it's displaying Other Devices->OMAP4470 and then eventually it disappears after some series of blinking and refreshes. I suppose I have done something wrong with it.

Do anyone have been in the same situation? What to do?

:(:(:(:(

Thanks in advance.

I bought new car radio Pioneer. It has bluetooth so I tried to play music with my sgs with AOSP 4.2.1 pawitp ROM. It connect with no problem and plays. But it brakes music for about half a second. Yust enough to notice and to get annoyed with it. It seems to play fine if I connect in aux. Don't know if that's normal or what could be the problem. Bluetooth can't deliver so much data and brakes or what?
[LG Optimus Me P350] rho57:
This Cyanbread-themed ROM is based on the official Cyanogenmod nightly (20121209) modified with the following features:

Default theme: Cyanbread (can be reverted to system theme}

Smaller status bar icons

ICS-style pattern lockscreen (comes with patch)

Jellybean transitions (comes with patch)

Deleted some apps

Bravia engine enabled (need to flash bravia engine patch, no need to edit build.prop)

Added and deleted some ringtones

Changed bootanimation

Mms.apk with enter key on keyboard

This ROM basically focuses on the interface so not much is changed from the original build.

Screenshots:

Working: Everything that works on the latest CM7Official Nightly

Not Working: Everything that doesn't work on the latest CM7 Official Nightly (if there are any)

Note: Flashing the patch without letting the ROM to boot for the first time may cause bootloops. Flash the ROM, Boot for the first time, Reboot to recovery, Flash patch.

Jellybean transition animations will not work if you apply themes like ICS, Xperia, etc.

Hi

Yesterday I spent a lot of time unlocking the bootloader because it didn't seem to work. But after a few hours I got it working by using HTC Super Tool.

Now, when I try rooting my phone, it doesn't work.

I tried rooting using these:

Android_Root_1.0

DooMLoRD_v2_ROOT-zergRush-busybox-su

HTC Super Tool v3

Root_with_Restore_by_Bin4ry_v18

SuperOneClick

None of them does anything, not even install SU or Busybox

Help. Please :(

You might help me! I get stuck on "waiting for device" while using XL multitool. It occures when im trying to flash recover my phone.
[HTC Sensation XL] farazhassankhan:
"waiting for device" happens when your phone is not in "fastboot" mood. Select fastboot and then press power button and this will take you to fastboot mood and there you can flash recovery from multi tool. Hope this works this way. Report back if it doesnt then i'll tell you nother way of flashing recovery my friend.

I think CM10 from FXP is most stable AOSP

AOKP by KXP is most feature packed AOSP

But these don't have stock camera HDMI and such working.

If you want AOSP UI with stock features like Sony Camera and HDMI but is stable and fast maybe you should try my ROM beautiful ICS :D

If you want just a stock ROM with NXT features which is stable and fast then my favourite for that is jaders Ultimate HD Rom.

Depends on what you want

Once you have a custom ROM running (in this case CyanogenMod) then it's quite easy to switch to another (like the one you want to use).

You may also want to back up you /efs partition. This step is not required, but it's safer if you do it. http://www.xda-developers.com/android/backup-and-restore-your-efs-folder-on-samsung-devices/

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ukjm2k:
Hi Folks,

My first post on N4 section.

Ive just upgraded from a HTC Sensation that I've been running for two years, mostly using CM9 & CM10 on it, so Im well aware of all the benefits to root.

Even been lucky enough to have some of the excellent Devs cooking in this section over at Sensation workbench too, like Showp's kernel with Sweep2wake.

So far, my Nexus has not been rooted, and although I miss custom Rom-ing, im very excited to say that not rooting means that some apps like SkyGo and Barclays Mobile banking & Barclays PingIt are working very nicely for me indeed, something that never happened on my Sensation.

Since my go-to rom on Sensation was AOSP anyway, Im pleased with my stock Android for now, and it just seems that some of the apps I can use now are pushing me into the non-root territory.... for now.

Anyone with any thoughts on my current predicament?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stankyou:
I don't see anything wrong with it although you are going to lose data the moment you decide to root. Unlocking the bootloader would wipe data off your phone if I remember correctly. (Nexus noob as I came from Desire.)

Agreed, I rooted my xperia, HTC evo and HP touchpad just to run AOSP. My nexus is staying stock for a long time, like you its very convenient to use the Barclays apps, only thing that might tempt me to root is to block ads....

I was in your boat with my HTC vivid. That thing had to be rooted to make it actually useful. But with the N4, I have no need to root. Ironic, don't you think? We finally get the phone that screams to mod it with how easy it is to root and yet we don't...
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joshnichols189:
While I respect all of your decisions to hold off on rooting, I will recommend that even if you don't root, unlock your boot loader ASAP because as mentioned above, your data IS wiped when you do so and it is necessary to do so if you ever decide to root in the future.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nathanation:
I have taken a look at the nexus 4 toolkit by mskip and you backup apps and data before unlocking then restore.... So I don't think it really matters.

Also without root you can't make the most of your battery with under clicking, screen off profiles, cpu sleeper, etc.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stankyou:

I'm in the same place as you. One of my main reasons for using custom ROMs was because I loved the look of AOSP. Now I have AOSP, I'm less tempted to flash anything or root, because everything works and looks good.
