Is their anyway to use the RUU from the internal 4GB of memory? or is this wiped during the process? I ask this because i cant connect via the USB cable...
SOLVED:
The soultion was as follows:
This is accomplished by placing a ROM named DIAMIMG.nbh on the internal storage and then entering Triggered Bootloader. Here are more detailed instructions:
1. BACKUP ANYTHING YOU DON'T WANT TO LOSE
2. Download your choice of ROM (see the list below).
3. If it is in a .rar compressed folder, extract it. The end result should be a .nbh file (usually called RUU_Signed.nbh).
4. Rename RUU_Signed.nbh as DIAMIMG.nbh.
5. Transfer DIAMIMG.nbh to the root of your internal storage.
6. Ensure that the file DIAMIMG.nbh is located on the internal storage of your device.
(May need to disconnect from computer if you are in Disk Mode and/or select Menu > Show All Files in File Explorer)
7. Enter Triggered Bootloader. (Power + VolumeDown + Back and hold down Reset)
8. You should see a grey screen with blue text listing all of the aspects of the ROM.
(At least one of: Bootloader, Splash1, Splash2, Radio, OS. Usually only OS.)
9. You are now given the option to press the Power button to start the update, or the Action button (circle) to cancel. (Press the power button)
10. If all goes well, the progress bar will reach 100% and the ROM Update will be complete, you then must reset the device. (Press the reset button or pull the battery)
11. Restore any backed up information.
12. Enjoy your new ROM!

......Android opens .apks, you would need androzip to extract a zip file. Linda will only open .apks to install..
Nicely done, as usual.
Would this guide be the same if I was using Super D as the rom?

No need to panic. As long as you can access the Blue Android Logo, you are fine.
Please list, step by step, what you did (including ROM Version Numbers).
Also - you might want to try flashing/wiping your phone. That seems to take care of many issues, but I'd still like to see what you did.

i was following this noob guide to s-off and root my incredible s. (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1705913)
((Section 1
1. Make a new folder on desktop called 'Downgrade'
2. Download this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/atta...5&d=1339391278
3. Make a new folder in 'Downgrade' called 'Downgrade Kit'
4. Extract the download into 'Downgrade Kit'
5. Now you should have a folder called 'Downgrade' on your desktop, inside that should be another folder called 'Downgrade Kit', inside that there should be a folder called 'files' and a program called 'runme.cmd'.
6. Make a new folder inside 'Downgrade' called 'RUU'
7. Download this and save it to folder 'RUU': http://www.filefactory.com/file/c0af...308_signed.exe
8. Connect phone to computer, and choose ‘Charge Only’ not ‘Disk Drive’. Enable USB Debugging, and disable Fastboot (If you don’t know how to, ask Dr. Google)
9. Open runme.cmd, it will ask questions! Answer according to your phone not mine! The questions are (If I can remember) i) Do you have root? I answered n. ii) Have you unlocked through htcdev.com? I answered no. iii) Do you want to create a goldcard? I answered y
10. After it successfully completes (if it doesn’t post below) run the RUU in the RUU folder (Remember it erases all data so if you need to, backup everything) , it will take around 10 mins. BE PATIENT!
11. After it installs check if your HBOOT has been downgraded! It should be 1.13.0000!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Section 2
1. Go to (revolutionary.io) and scroll down to hit ‘Downloads for Windows’ (But keep the website open)
2. Download and extract the .zip to a folder
3.Fill in the boxes for the beta key (on the revolutionary website)
You should fill it out like this
Your Operating System: Windows/Linux (Depending on yours)
Your Device: HTC Incredible S
HBOOT Version: 1.13.0000
Serial Number: (Your serial number)
4. Copy and paste that beta key into a notepad file and save it to the desktop! Beware copy and recheck if it matches
5. Connect phone, choose ‘Charge Only’, enable USB Debugging and disable Fastboot
6. Run revolutionary.exe
7. When it asks you to input beta key, do it!
8. When it asks you whether you want to flash Clockwork Mod Recovery, type y
9. Once it is done, the cmd will close
10. Confirm that you have S – Off in the bootloader!
11. So far so good!
12. Reboot into bootloader if you are not and then open up recovery, it should go to Clockwork Mod Recovery
13. While phone is in Clockwork Mod, connect phone to computer
14. Select Mounts and Storage by using the volume buttons to move and power to select.
15. Then select mount sdcard (the sd card directory should pop up on your computer screen)
16. Download the root .zip file and save it to your computer (do NOT extract it) (http://d-h.st/yzV)
17. Copy the root .zip file to the root of your sdcard and wait for it to transfer (not in any folders, just on the sd card itself).
18. On your device, select unmount sdcard.
19. On your device, select go back.
20. Then select Install zip from sdcard and choose the root .zip file.
21. Wait for it to flash, once done, select reboot system now.
22. Once your device reboots, open the app drawer and you should see Superuser permissions there. If so, you are all set, you are rooted, have S-Off and a custom recovery image.))
However until Section 2 step 15, i am stuck now. i mount my sdcard follwing the instructions, but the sd card directory doesnt pop up on my computer screen. What could be the problem??

Hi, I own the Note GT-N7000 4.0.4. Baseband version: N7000XXLRB; Build number: IMM76D.XXLRI and I would like to root the phone. I find this video to be the easiest but can I do it of I have a different ICS version? The video is on youtube (User: High On End), title is: How to Root ICS on Galaxy Note GT-N7000!
I would have pasted the link to the vid but I haven't got 10 posts yet
Thanks for any help I can get
I dont think you need video, its so simple
here is steps
-Download This

And copy it to Ext SD card root directory
-Switch off device, and reboot to recovery (press Vol up+Home+power) when you see samsung screen, just leave power button
-in recovery select 'update zip from Ext SD car (you can navigate choice with vol up/down and select choice with power button)
-Next screen choose zip file which you have copied (it will be in root directory, if you have copied to root directory as i said)
-just select it
Once it finish just back and select 'reboot system now'
You will be have device rooted + safe kernel
GoodLuck!
