[Q] please help N7000XXLC1 GB to StUNNER ICS

hi all, i'm on GB 2.3.6 N700XXLC1 pre rooted ROM and trying to install CWM with no success. Downloaded CF-Root-SGN_XX_OXA_LC1-v5.3-CWM5.zip and execute already-rooted.bat (USB debug is flagged, zimage file inside zimage folder and all the drivers are installed), the procedure starts but remain stuck in PUSHING ZIMAGE...(waited 30 min but NOTHING!)
Q: is this right or i need to downgrade to a directly rootable rom?
Q2: someone could explain the simplest procedure (step by step) with ALL the softwares and files needed to update from LC1 to stunner? I'm not asking all the links but file names and steps.
This is the lis of all the files i have downloaded till now:
1. Odin 1.85
2. pre rooted LC1 rom (installed - root ok)
3. CF-Root-SGN_XX_OXA_LC1-v5.3-CWM5.zip (do i need it?)
4. I9220LP1-N7000-ICS-REPACK.tar (do i need it?)
5. ICS_Stunner_1.4.19.zip
PS i don't have mobile odin so please explain how to do with odin for pc
Thank you in advance and sorry for the incorrect english

I'm not very experienced with this, but someone just helped me the other day to go to ICS stunner from GB. I see you already installed a pre rooter ROM, thats good. After that I installed the ICS repack using the mobile odin app. Well worth the money seeing I installed the repack + the stunner rom within a couple of minutes.

Since you are rooted already u don't require the 3rd step. Just check your root once!
Download mobile odin free from market or buy it if you can.....then flash the #4. file the LP1 repack through mobile odin. If u use pc odin it will give u yellow triangle and you will have to get rid of it using another app - triangle away.
Boot into LP1 repack and let the room settle.
Then reboot to recovery wipe data and cache and dalvik then flash stunner and clear cache dalvik and data and rebooot. Done
Useful links in my signature if you require.

thank you both!
1 bought mobile odin pro and flashed CF-root (only now i see it was not necessary)
2 flashed LP1 repack (mobile odin pro)
3 reboot in recovery and installed stunner from sd card
DONE!
what is dalvik?
now i'm on stunner..there are other updates i have to do? modems etc? I heard there is an update for the tablet mode..going to search for it
EDIT: i found this fix http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=24860868&postcount=3865 how install it? recovery>install from sd or via mobile odin pro?
EDIT 2: windows xp says USB not recognized when i connect the phone to pc with GB was ok, what can i do?

You can flash LP6 modem, works great for me..
There is no "update" to tablet mode, just a zip to enable it if you would like to use tablet mode and it should be flashed through recovery..
That fix for phone crash in 160 dpi should be flashed from recovery, and for general knowledge most of .zip files are flashed through recovery, odin mostly uses .tar files
IIRC there is a post with PC drivers in the Stunner thread, search for it and try it

thank you matius!
i'm on GB 2.3.6. LC1 pre rooted again because the USB was not recognized with my first stunner flash...now USB works perfectly, i want to clean install stunner with clear steps so please i need someone who confirm i'm doing the right steps:
1 reboot in recovery and wipe (data - cache - dalvik cache)
2 reboot phone open mobile odin and install LP1 repack from ext SD card
3 do i have to reboot in recovery and wipe data/cache/dalvik cache after LP1 installation?
4 reboot in recovery and install ICS Stunner 1.4.19 from ext SD card
5 do i have to reboot in recovery and wipe data/cache/dalvik cache after Stunner 1.4.19 installation?
6 reboot in recovery and install ICS Stunner 1.4.25 repack from ext sd card
7 after that i want to install LP6 modem and 160 dpi fix (recovery or mobile odin?)

Most of your questions seem answered however I noticed nobody mentioned what the dalvik is. First, to get to it:
Reboot into recovery->advanced->wipe dalvik ( and choose yes of course ), that should be done anytime you change roms and I do it every time I update a rom
Info on what the Dalvik Cache is:
Dalvik cache is a program cache area for the program dalvik. Dalvik is a java based virtual machine that is the bases for running your programs (the ones that have the .apk extension). In order to make access times faster (because there's not JIT (just in time) compiler installed by default), the dalvik-cache is the result of dalvik doing a optimization of the running program. Sounds confusing. It's similar to the prefetch files in Windows.

3 while in recovery install ICS Stunner 1.4.19 from ext SD card (once is done no wipes right?)

[Q] updating SGN n7000 to rocketrom..need help

i am having samsung note n700 and want to update to rocket rom available here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1654838
earlier i had official 4.0.3 ics stock rom kernel version- lp9
i had not rooted my phone
and yesterday i updated to 4.0.4 kernel version- LRQ using odin
Also my device too have eMMC bug
type- VYL00M Revision: 0x19
This chip is known to have brick bug..
Now pls guide me to load rocket rom to my mobile including proper rooting prcess..

Your best bet will be to install a PC with Odin (in the PDA level) some secure kernel for ICS (Notecore, Hydracore, Speedmod, CF-root kernel). You will have a yellow triangle. But remove it using TriangeAway.apk from the Market. After recovery from the CWM install Rocket ROM. Zip.

You can first root using method 1 in dr.ketan's guide (look for it in android dev sticky) and then flash some safe kerenl (speedmod or hydracore) using mobile odin, it wont raise binary or yellow triangle and then flash RR using cwm recovery (cwmr will be flashed automatically when you flash custom kernel).
Sent from my GT-N7000

i just checked dr.ketan guide
in the first method with rooting with stock recovery
there are the lines which i cant understand
1.Backup EFS
2.Flash any safe kernel with mobile Odin.
what is efs
how to flash kernel.
do i need to buy paid app of mobile odin from market..?

According to the way I do not have to buy, PC Odin, TriangleAway for free in the Market. EFS is a file which is stored data of your phone (IMEI, etc.). To create a backup of EFS is HC-kTool.apk. Saves the data in a safe place (in the case of losing). Safe kernel mentioned above. Read about them.

Its not n700 forum. lol
For rooting you already checked ketan's thread. I hope you are done with rooting now.
Did you tried the installation method posted in the RR forum ?
Now follow these instructions.
b2) coming from other rooted Samsung ICS-Custom-ROM or rooted ICS Stock ROM (FullWipe):
- download Abyss Kernel 4.2 from here: http://www.mediafire.com/?c65mndvpk6ocbaa
- put zip-file on your USB-storage
- boot in Recovery
- Flash Abyss Kernel 4.2!!!
- boot back in Recovery (find it under 'advanced')
- now FullWipe!!!
- Flash ROM
- reboot system
-...you are done
If you are on safe kernel i.e. Notecore, speedmod then there is no need to flash Abyss as both are safe kernels which has the emmc bug disabled.

my fone was not rooted nor i did flashing..
i downloaded this rom N7000XXLRQ_N7000DBTLRQ_DBT.zip (i think its germany one)
and by using pc odin, going to download mode on mobile and flashed this pda file on my cell phone.
now which step 1, 2, or 3 of dr.ketan i should follow to root my cell phone

- download Abyss Kernel 4.2 from here: http://www.mediafire.com/?c65mndvpk6ocbaa
- put zip-file on your USB-storage

I've done that way, but after installing 4.2 Abyss Kernel made ​​a phone restart. I've nothing helped. I grabbed a brick. Since then, will TriangleAway. I've never let me down.

1.Rooting with stock recovery - Thanx to Entropy who direct this way,as well always looking for safety measures for us, Chainfire for creating great tool SuperSu (and many more), Phil3759 as files,scripts derived from his Thread and Linus Yang for Busybox.
- Download Root_SuperSu 0.95
-Copy downloaded file to Ext SD card.
-Reboot into recovery (vol up+Home+power)
-Select install zip from ext SD card
-select 'root_SuperSU-*.zip' which you have copied to Ext card above
-Reboot device
-You can see superSU on appl drawer. open it and update.
-Now This will give you only SuperSU not busybox, though application which doesn't depends on system busybox will still works.e.g.Titanium Backup.
-To get full Root+busybox, Download Root_busybox *.zip
-Copy Root_busybox* only to Ext SD card
-Reboot into recovery, Select Install zip from Ext SD card. select Root_busybox* .zip and Flash.

New User, have some questions

Hi guys, just got a Samsung Galaxy Note GT-N7000 dirty cheap from Hong Kong, and using it now in the states. I am a huge fan of rooting/flashing and stuff, so I decided to give myself a little test and see how long I can keep this phone stock. I lasted two days...haha.
So, I set out to see how to root this thing. After reading thread after thread, I learned about the wipe brick bug on stock Samsung kernels.
Now here's my question:
I want to use method 1A (to be safe) using this guide here, and it led me to this thread. Now here's where I get confused. Which kernel am I supposed to download and flash?
My Stock ROM system info (remember, this is from Hong Kong)
Model Number:
GT-N7000
Android Version:
4.0.3
Baseband Version:
N7000XXLR1
Kernel Version:
3.0.15-N7000ZSLPF-CL558440
[email protected] #3
SMP PREEMPT Tue May 15 15:39:39 KST 2012
Build Number:
IML74K.ZSLPF
Any for of enlightenment is greatly appreciated, thanks guys!

The easiest is flash a safe custom kernel that will be safe to wipe, provides root access, and has Clockworkmod Recovery. Below is how I setup my phone to flash Paranoidandroid. I started with a stock N7000XXLRT rom. I did install and run Triangle Away to later to remove the yellow triangle counter warning on boot. Largely cosmetic. Please check wikis of this speedmod kernel supports ICS 4.0.3.
If all you want is root and a safe kernel then you end with step 3 and apply Triangle Away.
1. Begin with a stock ICS rom on your Note.
2. Use Odin on the PC,select PDA, and flash speedmod-kernel-n7000-ics-k3-13-Odin.tar with usb cable. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1673072
3. After flashing speedmod kernel you will have root access, and a custom Clockworkmod Recovery in which to flash custom roms.
4. Get Paranoidandroid zip and Gapps zip from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1871713 . Copy the Paranoidandroid and Gapps zip files on your phone's internal sd card.
5. Backup efs folder just to be sure. Use kTool from Google Play or manually copy the EFS folder with Explorer+ also from Google Play. Copy the files to your pc.
6. Press power button, select reboot, reboot into recovery and go to backup and restore section and create a backup. Select go back and reboot.
6. Reboot into recovery (Clockworkmod Recovery) wipe cache partition, wipe data/factory reset, wipe dalvik cache (advanced).
7. From recovery, select install from zip from sd card. Select choose zip from internal sdcard. Select the Paranoid rom zip and flash. Do the same to flash Gapps zip. Go back and reboot.
*When flashing nightlies, no need to wipe cache, data, and dalvik. But install Gapps zip again in Recovery. You will need to set up your Google account again.

Thanks. So it doesn't matter that I am on Stock Samsung ICS ROM from Hong Kong?
And also, what version of Odin do I use, or does it not matter?

Yes. HK rom pretty much is the same kernel with local enhancements. The XXLR1 seems to be German or European. It should be ok. Again please verify if the speedmod kernel works with ICS 4.0.3. The site says ICS so I think it does.
I used Odin3-v1.85.zip. Make sure you have an excellent usb cable. Test the rig by copying large files between your pc and the Note internal sdcard.

[4.4.x – CM11] Baseband problem : read this for my solution

Hi, few days ago I tried to flash CM11 and was disappointed with the no signal / no IMEI / no SIM problem...
I found a solution that worked perfectly for me :
1) Download and install latest recommended CWM recovery 6.0.4.5, easy to find on XDA
2) Download the latest 4.1 (not 4.3 or you will be stuck with KNOX security) firmware (on Sammobile for example).
3) Download latest CM11 nightly (and/or Paranoid GAPPS if you want them...) and copy the archive files on your SD Card then remove the SD Card from your phone.
4) Download latest modem for GT-I9305 (XXUEMK1).
5) Reboot in Download mode and flash CMW Recovery using Odin, Heimdall (tutorials on XDA...).
6) Reboot into CWM Recovery.
7) Wipe EVERY partition including those in "mounts and storage" section.
8) Reboot in Download mode.
9) Extract the downloaded Samsung package and flash the .tar.md5 file using Odin, Heimdall.
10) Reboot again in Download mode.
11) Flash the latest downloaded modem with Odin or Heimdall.
12) Power off your phone and then put back your SD Card with archive files on it.
13) Boot into CWM Recovery and do a Wipe Data/Factory reset and wipe /system partition in "mounts and storage" section then flash your archive files.
14) Reboot normally.
15) Enjoy.
All of these steps may not be necessary, you may just have to flash the latest ClockworkMod Recovery, wipe everything and try again to flash your CM11 ROM. But this is to be sure that the problem does not comes from somewhere else by restoring the phone at its factory state.
I know this is very long, but I think you could have broken some partitions with previous flashes, this guide helps you to repair bad things and you should flash all 4.4.x stuff using the latest ClockworkMod Recovery version.
I hope this will work for you guys, send feedbacks !
