Thanks for jumping in. I flashed with mobile odin, selecting "code" then switched the kernal to the cf root kernal.
Maybe something didnt flash right?

Looks like i might be able to just flash the CSC in mobile odin on the "cache" line?
Ok ok ok I completely MISSED this part
If get typing error 'null null'
mobile odin - click cache - point to 'CSC' file of downloaded rom
reflash
Done
LMAO im laughing because its just silly that i missed that several times EVEN after the posted TIP above

[Q] Question about Odin

I apologize if this is the wrong place to post this. Can someone explain the basics of what PDA/PHONE/CSC are? Right now by dialing *#*#1234#*#* I get:
PDA: i897UCJF6
PHONE: i897UCJH3
CSC: i897ATTJF6
I flashed the JH3 ROM from JF6 using the PDA option, was that correct? Also, can someone explain the proper way to flash with Odin? Thanks in advance.
I realize development isnt the best area for this, but i would be interested in an ‘idiots guide’ to odin, etc. As well.
Ive moded android phones before but it hasn’t been with odin
+1 the stickied Odin thread is not very detailed on what you're actually doing when you use the program.
+1 This would be nice
+10000
I have flashed WM thousands of times...android is a whole different monster and ODIN seems like such a shoddy program...no one ever puts a tutorial in their rom threads and I end up spending hours reading just to make sure I have everything set...
And am I the only one that has to run odin liek 30 times before it actually takes? Even the 1 click restore odin takes me several times pulling the battery for it to even start loading...
I hate to bump this, but could someone at least explain what PDA/PHONE/CSC are?

If you clicked PDA in odin and pointed to the right ucjh3, you should be on jhs pda AND modem, i think, though i don't believe there's much difference. As for explanation, see below....

Ok, I'll try to explain:
Odin - PDA=Kernel - The brain or core
- Phone:= modem - self explanatory
- CSC = Carrier specific options - usually ignore this
Most of the time, the package you download is all-in-one, which would go in the PDA box. It basically "wipes" the existing system (not data,like your music and stuff) and installs whatever you tell it to. In other words, stock is UCJF6. The "leaked" newer firmwares are jh2, jh3 and jh7. They are complete files. To upgrade to the jh3 for instance, you would download it, unzip the zip so that it was now showing as a .tar, and point odin PDA to it. Then connect phone in d/l mode and click start in odin when it says added. It will reprogram the firmware and reboot, at which time you close odin and disconnect cable. You have just flashed!

How to change CSC?

Does this have to done while flashing or is it possible to change afterwards?
If so how do you change it from KOR?

What JJE wrote you. Just to add. If you are on a ROM with NEE, XEE (the latest GB) AND you have KOR and you cant change with that link. Full reflash needed I guess.
Try the link JJE wrote you. If it works and it should. Good for you
If no, full ROM reflash via odin with everything is needed. (you can backup your data before and restore, so it wont take long).

Sorry to be a noob, I usually only flash the pdas.
How do I reset the CSC when flashing with odin ? Just downloaded JS7 from Samfirmware which comes with XEE CSC, can I just replace that with a XEU CSC file? if so where do I get them?
The file in the link provided comes in a zip file and a completely different size, can I rename that to tar or tar.MD5 and just flash it?
Bump, sorry need a quick answer to this...
Also, the file said XEE but is actually NEE now, odd.
EDIT: Nevermind, it's really simple to change, overly complicated guides didn't really help.

[Q] How to root galaxy note GT-N7000BDULB3 version

Hello xda developers
I am wondering if someone can answer a few questions i have about rooting my samsung note?
I'm in Australia and just got my note with vodafone on Saturday. I have been doing some searching in the dev section and I haven't found my kernel version (2.6.35.7-N7000BDULB3-CL977082) to download from dr.ketan I have also searched for it on sammobile.com with no luck also.
So from the above statement does anyone know where i can get a copy of it from or know how i can backup mine from my phone atm?
I have found a root solution however It is for the GT-N7000 model which is at rootgalaxynote.com/galaxy-note-root/how-to-root-galaxy-note-gt-n7000-method-2odinheimdall
If I followed this above method would I end up bricking the phone as the phone version are different? I found nothing on a search when comparing the two
Sorry for an the essay of a post too.
Looks like you're the only guy in the whole wide world with the exotic N7000BDULB3 GB, mate.
https://www.google.com/search?client=opera&rls=en&q=N7000BDULB3&sourceid=opera&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8
Anyway, you can always flash and root and older Rom, then upgrade to whatever you want whilst keeping your root. Here's a little guide to downgrading and rooting I wrote some time ago, hope it helps.
You'll have a rooted KK9 rom after you're done. Then you can download any new GB version (LC1 is the latest) from here and flash it with Mobile Odin, with Everroot and Inject Superuser options ticked. That will keep your root.
Good luck.

Thanks so much, and your posts are one of the easiest to follow and gives a great head start for noobs! Great Job really!
I used this method and now I see a yellow triangle.
1. Will this yellow triangle during boot up, disappear if I follow your unroot method?
2. Will my phone can be updated to ICS once Samsung officially provides upgrade to ICS for Galaxy Note?
3. I tried SetCPU, the phone became very hot, when I over clocked and it just hang. I brought it back to normal.
4. What are all the other useful, important things we can do after root, other than installing Titanium Backup etc.

This might be a stupid question chasmodo so bare with me.
With the KKA firmware when extracted I get the 2 files like you said the .tar.md5 and the dll file.
In odin do i just select the .tar.md5 file under the pda option? or do i have to put the dll file in an option as well.

Do you have Sammy drivers installed on your PC? This is important. From Dr Ketan's guide:
"Install Kies on your computer, connect your phone and make sure that all the drivers installed correctly."

seem to fail when it goes to boot.ini and the kernel section just fails there?
Think I should try flash a kernel or something?

Galaxy Tab 8.9 Dangerous odd behavior??

I hope some one can help. I have never seen anything like this. I have an 8.9 GT-P7310 and its acting very strange. I have tried to Odin anything I can from stock ICS to custom recovery to stock honeycomb and stock recovery. Everything, I repeat everything fails. It looks like it will go and fails everytime. In this case I would look at it as a brick with the firmware upgrade failure message but no. All I have to do is boot it into recovery reset and it turns on. I just cant do anything :crying: Also the tab flickers red whenever I make a selection but I am out of ideas here..
I have a new Sam cable and tried all Usb ports
Make sure to turn off all the developer options. Sounds like you have USB debugging and 'Screen Flash' turned on ... at least.

Thanks for the quick reply.. Ill check it right now and report back
Edit: Odin still fails
I feel like it has a corrupted bootloader or so,
how to circumvent this?
well maybe if you use the pit file to repartition the tablet then install a boot loader from an old and complete stock honeycomb would make a difference.
you can check sammobile for a stock complete honey comb and check additional downloads for a PDF to describe how to flash using ODIN and another link to the 7300 and 7310 pit file to repartition.
after all I am not sure, but I am rather giving a shot, so you might wait for a more experienced senior user who can figure it out straight

you can find the pit file at samfirmware if you search for the tab in "firmware and files"
But I'm really not sure of this. I'm just thinking with you, so my advice is to wait some time for a senior member who can help you without guessing, because they may render the tablet unusable, so it might be abit dangerous to go for these guesses right now .

Have you checked the service manual for changing the software for the tablet on samfirmware?
I read that after you flash the pit file, you should remove the battery then connect to odin and flash the bootloader, PDA, CSC files from a previous complete stock.
Please read the service manual carefully from samfirmware to check the steps accuratley.

[Q?] URGENT Help with Soft Brick!!

Help me out guys i really need save my phone.
i have been trying to update my 2.3.6 to 4.3 (Jellybean) through Odin since I always got some weird stopping at 69% on Kies, but i seemed to fail on odin, Odin was failing to do it so i tried other odin ver and got stuck on the ''NAND Write Start'' thing, i exited odin and then tried something else i'm very stupid so i used a pit for the wrong version of my android to..help in whatever it was i dont remember, together with the ROM.
i didn't check if my phone was aleadry bricked after i force closed odin in patching in the first time so i don't know the root of the problem.
and i don't know if this is Soft or full brick but i get stuck at Firmware Upgrade encountered a issue, Kies does not help in it when i type the cellphone info into that option, it gives me a error so no way through kies. i didn't do any way yet to try to save it i'm really unsure what to do i checked really a bunch of different posts so its really confusing, i really get in panic when stuff like this happens so forgive me, i hope anyone can help in somehow, also, if better i need to save it in a way without having to wipe my stuff because most of my apps data are in the phone, but i dont mind if theres no other way than using wiping in one of the steps.
i don't really know how to follow if you link me over a thread so its better if you post the explanation here.

You must do factory reset when you go from GB to JB. That is why you get a bootloop probably.
So to make it short situations is like this:
1. You had problem with Kies
2. Tried with Odin and got force close of odin in Windows?
3. Retry with Kies with same ending
So what Windows do you use? Do you use 8? I read some had problem with Odin and 8.x. Did you use Odin 3.0.x?

Yeah, forced closed odin 2 times, kies like stopped and disconnected everything on 69% leaving only the android on downloading screen but that didnt brick it, i use windows 7, odin 3.09 only gave me fails so i used 3.07 where it got stuck on nand thing.
also, any ways to backup things even though the thing is bricked? i can go to download mode fine and i think i can go into recovery too (never tried it on this phone)

Your internal data (on internal SD) will be there, but Factory reset will delete your apps and its data.
Or try to flash GB with ODIN and see what happens.

It is probably soft, you can go to Odin. Way to unbrick it is to flash stock firmware with Odin - like you did. Find GB firmware and flash it with odin like you did.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1985398
If your phone is I9070 then use firmware for I9070, if it is I9070P use I9070P firmware. If you miss this you will hardbrick phone, and not be able to use Download mode.
And do not use Hong Kong firmware.
sammobile.com and samsung-updates.com are sites where you can find firmwares.
You were on custom ROM when you did update with Kies?

Use region next to you, I am using Italian and I am from Serbia. I do not know if you will get nand write error, you should not get it in first place. Maybe something is wrong with it...

I am not 100% sure about that. Maybe try other ODIN versions. But I used 3.0.7 without problem. Search for nand write problem to see what is it about.
P.S. Redownlaod firmware maybe, is it the same size as shown on the page when you started download?

Yeah um it was, as i said Odin 3.09 only failed while 3.07 got stuck in nando. isnt there someone that knows about that nando thing? i readed alot but i dont think i can really find a good answer.
alright so, downloaded a 2.3.6 firmware, i download which odin? i do need download that ''odin tools'' from that link you linked me ? because it has a very old ver of odin but skipping that it has a PIT file that i dont really know what it is for.

Follow the whole procedure from that thread. Except the part of 16GB version, if you do not have one.

I am not sure if that method formats internal storage. And if you get adb shell you could do it with command or with total commander with adb plugin (for that go to my profile, to all threads I started and you will see one about it).

well since its normal again but without nothing, when i decide to try update it again which way you would recommend me off? i mean, a really good one that isnt by Kies?

Odin. Like you did now, just with JB firmware for your I9070 model (P or non P, if you miss that you will hard brick, for example if you flash P firmware on non P phone, and otherwise).
Just follow this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1985398
Simple as - put firmware in PDA, hit flash. And check if you have unchecked/checked as it is written there.
Probably Kies was the problem, because that nand write error. He messed up, and now this fixed it.
