[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] prajjwal:
My Story so far:

i was on rooted LSZ ROM with the CSC changed to UK so that i could get the Lockscreen shortcuts, .....well when i heard about this LT4 ROM i thought i should get an over the air update but when i tried the software update but it displayed that my device has been modified thus i cant get the update so the next thing i did that was to change the CSC back to German (DBT) and in the meanwhile i started the LT4 ROM download...after the phone booted in the DBT csc i surely got an update of 189 MB....i was excited... i thoguht i dont have to go through the Odin way....well after downloading, it was time to install, i happily clicked the install button...the phone shutdown itself and restarted only to my dismay to be stuck at the android logo which it shows as if its trying to install but after a sec or two the screen would go black and again the same thing reapeated...well i told my self nothing to worry may be its a new way of installing....but after 15 mins nothing changed and then the panic struck...now what to do??...i tried to force restart it...but the result was same....took out the battery waited for 5 mins(it seemed Like Hours)...but again the same thing..this time i didnt even have to press the power button...the phone switched on by itself and happily got stuck at the android logo with screen being rythymically switching on and off...I was Lost...still consoling myself i thoguht i should go to recovery mode and wipe everything off and then reboot ( i was on safe Kernel)...but alas !!! the phone refused to go in to recovery.,.. i tried more than 5- 6 times...even took out the battery and sim and card..but still no recovery....i was loosing it...i thought if phone is not going in recovery then how about the download mode?...i tried that and phew!!!... i was in download mode.....without thinking much i falshed the ICS ROM LRG... all went well....BUT again now the phone got stuck at samsung logo refusing to go forward...tried restarting....but it wont budge.. i didnt try to go in recovery mode and wipe fearing the emmc bug will brick it..thus i again flashed...GB ROM..LC1...this time it passed the samsung logo yet again got stuck at screen where it said touch the Android....even after reapeated touching it didnt move forward....so i went in recovery wiped everything...and again rebooted....This time with the grace of Almighty the phone came back to life...everything went on well...then suddenly the phone said NO SIM card inserted..i quickly checked and came to realize that i had inserted the SIM the other way around...Now i wonder what went wrong??? while the world moved from GB to JB...i had to go the other way round that is back to GB...what i realize now is GB is much Fast and snappier than the ICS or JB which i had installed.

Currently i am downloading the LT4 ROM but still thinking should i Flash it ?
