I got an i747m for my brother. It was running stock 4.1.2 which I downgraded to 4.1.1, unlocked using the free menu method, and upgraded to a rooted stock 4.1.2.

Is it possible to load TWRP via odin and flash 4.3 or 4.4 ROMs (stock of CM-based) without flashing to stock 4.3 first? If I do flash a custom CM-based 4.3 or 4.4, will this upgrade the phone's bootloader to 4.3 as well?

I'm asking because I want to avoid tripping the knox counter on the phone as it is brand new.

I apologize if these sound like newbie questions. I did a search and could not find an answer.

Thanks for your time.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lister Of Smeg:
Hi Guys,

I wondered if any of you (more experienced, long serving) users are aware of any Gingerbread ROMs? Preferably a CM or any 2.3.7 based, but if they don't exist, any build will do... It needs to be a safe build, a non eMMC bug version, or DeOxed (is that the term)?

Sure, you're gonna say, why bother.. There's JB and KK now, but I like GB and wanted to see what it's like on the N7000?

All help gratefully welcomed..

Thanks, Lister

all GB kernels are safe to wipe data (only stock ICS kernel is unsafe)

i advise you to try Checkrom HD v6, still my favorite GB rom :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lister Of Smeg:
Hi [MENTION=3374872]ASMI1[/MENTION],

Thanks for such a fast reply.. I've been to the main website where I can download it.. One thing I'm worried about, I've seen in this ROM and mentioned in another GB based ROM for our phones is: CSC?

the CheckRom v6 features "Multi CSC" what does this mean, and is it dangerous?

Do I flash Philz Kernel, and install with that? Do I need to flash another kernel afterwards? Does this room raise the counter or anything?

I'm OK flashing JB or KK, but not done a GB ROM and worried in case summit not aware of, don't want to brick this...?

Thanks, Lister
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kaborayyan:
CSC means customer service code. Multi csc means that this rom is not locked to any country or carrier.

Yes you can flag it under philz kernel.

Hi [MENTION=5103084]kaborayyan[/MENTION] / [MENTION=3374872]ASMI1[/MENTION] / Guys,

I've flashed Philz original Recovery/Kernel first, and then do all the usual wipes... Factory Reset, System, Davlik Cache (and even tried Pre-Load? after first failed) and same result each time.

During the flashing process it seems to backup the EFS (even though that was the first thing I did when I got this phone, so hope it hasnt over written my original EFS backup) but then gets stuck. It seems to stay on Flashing Modem for ages, and progress bar doesnt move... And then the phone goes black, and it reboots... But then gets stuck on the white Samsung splash screen "Samsung Galaxy Note - GT-N7000" and stays like that, unless I reboot....

I reboot, but notice CWM 5.0.2.7 is installed (not sure if thats a safe one?) so I flash Philz from within that, reboot recovery and then do all the wipes again... and the phone seems like normal again. However I dont know if I've done anything wrong, or if the phone is still safe or if I've killed it any way??? lol

Cheers for any help/support.

Thanks, Lister

Reboot into recovery again if you found the touch colored recovery then you're on philz kernel. If not be sure that you selected the suitable philz kernel.

If I helped hit the thanks button.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lister Of Smeg:
Hi [MENTION=5103084]kaborayyan[/MENTION],

Yep, I'm certainly on Philz Kernel.... when it's loaded, its kind of a pink/purple-ish colour.... (not sure what version, but something like 5.1.1.1) It's the first one I downloaded when I got this phone a couple of months back, that I used to root/and then flash custom roms with... (namely, JB).

However, I fancy seeing what GB is like on it, but get stuck... it seems to hang on Flashing Modem, sits there, and then reboots without finishing by the looks of things...? :(

Its a UK Vodafone, N7000

Thanks, Lister

Did you try to flash a stock GB ROM through Odin? May be you get better results. Then root it and flash whatever you want of custom GB based Roms.

Sent from my GT-N7000
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ASMI1:
yeah like kaborayyan said, try to flash any stock GB rom using odin3 v1.85 only (you can find instructions and download links in the sticky thread in the orginal development section, you should look for mirrors because hotfile is down or just download chainfire prerooted stock rom)

After you get a stock rooted GB rom installed on your phone, install checkrom using the recovery after wiping data, cache and dalvik.

as i said stock ICS roms are unsafe, other roms are safe... just keep a backup of your efs

and be careful when using odin3.

btw, hitting the "thanks" button is easier than writing it :)

cheers :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nokiamodeln91:
Go to www.samsung-updates.com firmware section. There are a few 2.3.6 roms available. Stock though. These roms might be non root able. Not really sure as there are not many methods of rooting GB (check Dr ketans thread for more info) . It could also be possible that for rooting again you will need to flash an ICS or JB rom again using Odin.

If you just want to taste the ginger then stock GB rom is quite fast.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroidSlave:
Pristine LC1 is a good option. Its in the OP of the pristine thread. All GB kernels are safe, as above mentioned.

There is no 2.3.7 or CM based N7000 rom

Thanks guys, with you're help.... I've finally made it !!! :) It appears CheckROM HD v6 does not want to flash under Philz (or some other recovery, cant think what now??) However I did manage to get it to Flash under Abyss Recovery Kernel (which is based on GB kernel, apparently).

So it has flashed now, not had chance to play around with it yet as am at work... But just by looking at it, it's bringing back the GB love.... ;)

Yes I know it's sad, why go back to GB?? lol. But sometimes it's just nice to go over, for old times sake... Used to do it on my ZTE Blade many a times...

So, (quick questions).

1) With this stock-ish rom, can I remove/tweak/clean up, and then package it (in CWM) as a flashable rom?? or do I have to backup/restore only in that version of CWM??

2) It safe to flash any version of CM9, without using flashing a seperate recovery afterwards... and still avoid the eMMC. It's only official STOCK firmware that killed them....

Thanks once again guys for all your support, I know its not normal (and frowned upon) to use older firmware... But just wanted to see what GB was like again...

Cheers, Lister
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroidSlave:
1) not really unless you use a new version of philz touch recovery, which wouldn't happen because on the n7000 the recovery sits on the kernel, thus you are stuck with an old kernel and old recovery. As such your best bet is to do a nandroid backup. Further - when you restore such a backup, I recommend flashing abyss again first so you are in the Ame recovery it was made in

2) yes. Just be concerned of Stock ICS (4.0.4) with a custom recovery. Never flash temporary cwm.zip. matter of fact, just avoid stock ICS at all costs. Newer versions of cm9 are safe. Avoid very old cm9 versions. My personal recommendation to you would be Paranoid Android cm9 ( I think it stopped at around .4a) that one was amazing.

NO KERNEL INCLUDED>

MUST INSTALL OVER A CM11 BASED BUILD

which will have the kernel and a full system this rom only changes and adds features for cm11 builds

STEP ONE:

install a cm11 build tested over this one here...

thank [MENTION=2682982]noobnl[/MENTION] for his hard work bringing us a working cm

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2599669

i used:NEW NEW NEW BUILD from that thread.

there is now an official build page for the note 3 cm builds here.

latest official builds can be found here

http://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=hltespr

Reports are it also works very well with VANIR based roms

http://www.emccann.net/nuclearmistake/VanirAOSPNightlies/hltespr/

STEP TWO GET THIS FILE:

DOWNLOAD

VERSION 1.0 ALPHA SOME MINOR BUGS (CM11 is not 100% yet)

(if downloading from phone gives a bin file download with a pc, should be.zip)

INCLUDES ALL NECESSARY GAPPS AND OTHER NEEDED FILES!

Built on top of cm11 for multiple reasons, (my upload bandwith is horrible right now, cm11 is getting constant updates, this will make things easier on me at least until everything gets worked out) (should also work UNTESTED on other cm11 builds/roms for the sprint note 3)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] mjcollum:
Install instructions

FOR THIS VERSION AT THE MOMENT CWM RECOVERY IS NOT SUPPORTED

cwm lacks the fix permissions script needed to ensure certain data settings remain intact

future versions will improve on this, however for now use TWRP

Install notes for test version 1 (this will change dramatically with upcomming versions)

FIRST (ESPECIALLY IF COMING FROM 4.3)

wipe everything in recovery except internal and external sd

(wipe>advanced)

reboot into recovery (IMPORTANT)

then install from there.

install cm11 first

boot to system

This is an update add on to cm11 based roms

flash update reboot (to write data to system)

flash update again, fix permissions, (edits data after a boot)

reboot

(i have been working on a much improved install procedure that should ensure a one step install,

the reason for editing data is to pre-set some app settings

without having to edit individual apk files, this increases

compatibility and ensures things still work as intended as apps get updated)

open pie control give admin

open wanam press update install (to force admin)

will need to open a few other apps also will list as found

future versions should take care of this automagically.

can use hide apps to hide unwanted apps from the launcher (this will also be preset in the future)

i usually use it to hide all the wanam modules and not the xposed installer.

then use xposed installer , modules to edit settings as needed.

also can hide anything else you want to leave installed but not see.

these apps may need root enabled (just open and try and change something) should prompt..

Xposed installer

Pie control

startup manager (if wanted)

texdroider dpi (if wanted)

file manager

xhalo floating windows (wanam module)

app hider (to hide apps optional)

also there are some included themes under the settings menu themes.

ignore the warning and just press apply, (stock cm11, blackout, twstyle)

may also want to uncheck and recheck all the wanam modules and reboot after to be sure they all actually get set.

ADVANCED USERS/USERS WANTING TO USE THIS ON TOP OF ANOTHER CM11 BUILD

STILL READ ABOVE NOTES>

Dirty flash on top of any running cm11 system should be fine (unconfirmed)

NOT WIPING DATA SHOULD BE FINE ALSO IF YOU ARE ALREADY ON A 4.4 BUILD.

DO THIS:

flash update reboot (to write data to system)

flash update again, fix permissions, (edits data after a boot)

reboot

if your already running any cm11 based rom you could skip the whole wipe data and installing stock cm11 part and go right to step 2

edit so if coming from another cm11 rom..

flash update, reboot (to write data to system)

reboot recovery

flash update again, fix permissions, (edits data after a boot)

reboot

I don't know what happened but when I rebooted into Recovery, I'm presented with Android system recovery instead of my latest CWM. Was this part of the 5.4/5.5 ROM that it removes CWM?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] mjcollum:
Honestly the reason is 50% cm11 is getting constant updates and 50% I was saving myself the added couple hundred megabytes of upload on my tin can modem.

Though the added benefit is it should also work on top of most cm based ROMs also
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] mjcollum:
It should not.. Unless you restored something from before cwm was installed.

Though I have only tested with twrp.

Its all I ever use and has caused me no issues.

PS this is not the maximus thread :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Volknochi:
I know this isn't the Maximus thread, but I asked, anyways, because I was about to install the new 4.4 you have given but then I was presented with the Android recovery screen. So, why not kill two birds with one stone?*

Will a cm10 theme apk. Work with this??
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] mjcollum:
Lol.

Just being sure you were aware it wouldn't be the first time it happened the threads do all look alike with the same layout and similar names.

I'm not sure what would make you lose cwm. There shouldn't be anything in any of those files that go anywhere near that partition at all. The only things I could think of would be a full restore of a backup from before cwm or a big on cwm. Though once again not positive on this as its one of those things I have never tried {one of those if it ain't broke things) though at some point when I get a break from messing with new stuff I may give it a shot to see.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] mjcollum:
It should.

Anything that works on cm11 should also work on this.

I believe themes after cm9 or so should all work.

No promises worse case is it doesn't should be no lasting effect from trying either.

what i have found so far

1. Playing any type of sound is sometimes distorted ( I know it is CM 11 problem), i have try fix in it by installing viper4 did not work, DSP manager did not work ( DSP was used on other CM 11 variant and it "covers" the sound problem.

2. GPS is not working for me ( CM 11 problem) I checked with both High Accuracy(does not work on CM11) and Device only (Works on CM11, but is not working on this ROM).Google Earth and Maps is working but GPS Test and GPS toolbox does not get a lock.

3. On youtube will not auto rotate if the video is playing and to auto rotate i had to deactivate and activate (video paused) after resuming the video it will not auto rotate. I will go in full screen if the icon on the corner is pressed.

PS: Watch on is partially working, the providers side tv guide and all that is working but the remote control (IR) is not working for me , I try to set up a Sony TV no code found, maybe not in the IR list?, and tried to the Motorola cable box ( Top box settings?) no go either.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] mjcollum:

I'm excited if those are the main things so far.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Volknochi:
Just one problem: the latest CWM doesn't have "Fix Permissions" in its Advanced menu. I Googled it, and apparently it used to but this latest does not.

So, not sure how big of a deal it is to Fix Permissions, but I did this for install:

Wipe Data/Factory Reset (twice)

Wipe Cache (twice)

Wipe Dalvik Cache (twice)

Install that CM11 file

Boot to main phone O/S

Reboot into Recovery

Install Beta 4.4 file

Boot to main phone O/S (I'm assuming this is "system" as you call it?)

Couldn't reboot into Recovery from phone's power menu as only two options available: Power off and Airplane mode (yes, I did have the options ticked under Developer options to give me extended Power Menu options)

Install Beta 4.4 file

Boot to phone again

Reboot to system

So far, it seems okay. I did find a thread that mentioned getting ROM Toolbox and the option for Fix Permissions can also be found in there. However, I cannot find it, and it's not where that one thread said it was. Anyone on here possibly know the in's and out's of ROM Toolbox and can help me with that?

Also! having done all of that, there still isn't any extra options for the Power menu. Still only Power Off and Airplane Mode.
