thanks for your help,
Xinity
Hi xinity,
Just download the XLA3 stock rom and follow this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1386356 but read very carefully!
Unzip XLA3 and you will find odin in there for option 1 you dont need check fus if you already have the rom just go to step 5...But remember to read carefully
Or you use option 2 if you have all the files u need
Sorry for my english,
Kind Regards Funky

Just download said ROM, extract it.
open odin (U will get in download package)
Dont check 're-partition'
select PDA in odin with CODE * file
Modem - Modem *
CSC - Multi CSC *
put mobile in Download mode, attach to PC, once you will see yellow table on COM, set START
it will be flashed in 5-10 min.
Remember, LA3 is wipe version, you will lose all your setting n installed application
It is non rootable, you can't Root it directly.
Thanks man!
Thanks guys
I'll take a closer look at home.

You can't root la1/la3 directly. You have to root first older rootable rom, root it n use mobile odin or cwm to update la1/la3.

Hi guys,
I'm really interested in flashing Revolution Rom to my SGS1. It currently has CyanogenMod7 on it.
I've looked at the instructions here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1236432
but can't figure out if I'm meant to just flash the rom or if I somehow need to flash a stock Gingerbread first before then flashing the REvolutionROM.
Can anyone assist?
Apologies if this question's already been asked, I did a thorough search but couldn't find anything. Happy if you just point me to another thread if it's already answered.
thanks

To revert from CM7 to any other samsung rom you need to first flash a full PDA stock rom with odin. with repartition. and 512 pit.
then you can change to what ever rom you want.

Thank you for this
Can you also please tell me how to flash this ?
Downloading now , this is a good to have for warranty purpose
Install Kies on your computer, connect your phone and make sure that all the drivers installed correctly. Download Odin to your PC. Extract tar file from the ROM. Put the phone into download mode (vol. down+home+power buttons), start odin, connect the phone via USB. Choose continue on the phone, make sure that only two boxes are checked in odin - Auto Reboot and F.Reset Time. Choose PDA button in Odin and select tar file you extracted before. Choose START button. The phone will reboot after the flash. Done.
Use this method only with stock firmwares. Methods are different for custom ROMs.
any deodex indian rom...or kk3 kernel cf root.

Is this an untouched ROM. I was unable to find the original untouched ROM and from what I see/think it seems touched or perhaps a pre-release version?
Can someone please provide input. This does not seem to be the patched version that we had a minor update 0.8MB with.
I am using this version of rom only, its great only, might need a lil improvements on battery management. overall its good

I can't download and install mobile odin. It's saying that it's not compatible with my device everytime I try to get it.
Now, my main objective is to get the LA1 on my device but I got more confused with the multiple files contained in the stock LA1 file I downloaded.

Just use code* file with pda
No other needed, n don't select re partition in Odin
Just to inform if you do this with PC Odin, you won't get root later.
It should do with mobile Odin

Actually, I believe that the reason why I can't see mobile odin is because of some imposed restriction where I am now.
Not required to send an email to your friend. I will just discover for myself. I'm downloading the KL1 and I'll will flash it to my device using Odin. Then I'll use the method 2 (Root + CWM) to see if I will finally meet Mobile Odin.
If all goes well, then I'll be having an LA1/LA3.

k. am downgrading Firmware to KL3 , and i need procedure. but mainly it should not effect binary counter.
It's not possible to root LA4 directly at the moment, so you'll need to downgrade your device first:
- Download a firmware that's rootable from here.
- Download Odin from the link provided above
- Enter "Download Mode" on your device by shutting your Note completely off, then press and hold Volume Down + Home button + Power button
- Start Odin
- Unzip the firmware (the zip file you just downloaded), and you'll end up with a md5-file
- Go to Odin and click "PDA" and choose the md5-file
- Press "Start"
- Wait
- Done
Now you can root the device and get CWM, so go to this thread and do the "I Want ROOT + CWM" at the end of the first post.
- After you're rooted download LA4 again from the first link in this post
- Transfer it to your Note
- Open CWM on your Note
- Flash it
Done. You now have a rooted LA4.

No it won't.
Just make 1 thing clear. binary count raise only, If you flash any custom ROM/Kernel with PC Odin.
Follow LordManhattan's advise and still once refer Installation guide in detail in post #2 n 3 of this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424997
Just to add, Downgrade Firmware shud be direct rootable. (before KL7), N if particularly i specify, I can say Downgrade first to indian ROM KL1, I have flashed this ROM in at least 5 Notes.
That means Flashing Custom ROM using CWM doesn't effect Binary Count rite??
if you flash using CWM or mobile odin it wont if you do using oding from PC it will still not sure about official firmware

Hey,
Dr.Ketan, can you tell me please if there is a chance to root the original LA4 (never changed rom) if I don't have access to a Windows and only to a Mac?
I only want to root it for the basic tweaks and apps. Don't need a custom rom at the moment. I want to root it and use it as is while I wait for the official ICS.
Thanks.
There is no Queston of window or Mac,LA4 is non rootable, to get root, first u need to downgrade older rom.

Thanks. I got ahead of the events. I didn't meant that. I meant if I can do the procedure of downgrading and everything I might need to do in order to root or to install a custom rom or another stock using ONLY my Samsung Note and a Mac.
Q1: I can downgrade using a exclusively a Mac with Lion on it?
Q2: If the answer to Q1 is affirmative, can I root it after downgrade also using only Lion on Mac?
Thanks again!
I have never heard mac pc odin. Plz google for it. So without pc odin you cant downgrade.
Yes there was review i read, got root with mac. You just read my thread how to root...(u may find from my signature), i remember i have post a link somwhere, how to root using mac.

Yes, I saw there was one root with mac solution, but works only if the Note is rootable. LA4 is not. So I must downgrade first. )))))
Nevermind, I'll try to do it with Windows, somehow. Thanks!
I am also new to this, and this thread is very clear. The bit I do not understand is what Kernal I should be running. Custom roms available can have a variety of kernals e.g LA3, LA4 etc. Do i have to choose a rom that has a kernal compatible with my phone? is there some rational to running one kernal vs another? I notice that it may be possible to flash a rom and keep a previous kernal e.g a CF kernal. is this advisable? your advice would be very welcome.
You don't need to flash a new kernel. Most of the custom ROMs includes a custom kernel that's good enough, but if you're interested in testing a few of them then you can do it without any problems.

Now is when I am lost. I did all the above (thanks, by the way) and I run KKA now. I had LA4 (Germany) when bought it, then downgraded to root.
Now I am rooted but when I try to update firmware with CWM, nothing happens. I have to put the ZIP in the Note or the MD5? I tried with the MD5 two times.
Is there something I do wrong? Is any other method apart from CWM? I mention that when I downgraded and first booted, CWM said something about "not being compatible and some functions were disabled".
Any ideas?
EDIT:
I couldn't work it out as expected and I went back to my original LA4 (Germany).

No need to do anything from CWM recovery, flashing with PC Odin will reset your system.. Just make sure it is a complete ROM and flash it using the steps described in the 2nd post of this thread
Thank u so much.I'll try right now.
Thank u matius.It worked.Need to know something now.I'm still waiting for ICS.But i don't want to wait anymore. I see there is a new rom added to dr.ketan's post for Galaxy Note.ICS ROms-N7000XXLPY-4.0.3-2012 May-N7000OXALPY-Open Germany.My question is - is it the full complete stock rom of ICS for Galaxy note?I'll be able to upgrade to ICS with pc odin,the same way i downgraded to KL3 firmware.N it will not harm my warranty? In there dr.ketan added the upgrade guide too.Here is the installation method by dr.ketan ---->
Install using Mobile Odin safely
- Download N extract ROM
- Copy Extracted file to a folder e.g ICS ROM On Ext/Int SD card
- Download CF Root for LPY
- Extract CF root till get zImage file
- Copy zImage file to same above said folder in SD car
- Open Mobile Odin
- Select 'Open file' N point to ROM file
- select Kernel tab N point to zImage file
- select Ever Root option
- Flash
- You will get ICS ROM + Root + CWM
But my question is now why i need CF root?Is it necessary for this rom?I just want to stay with a official stock rom of ICS without any root at this moment.So can i just download the rom n install it with pc odin?
O n as this N7000XXLPY-4.0.3 Rom is official then i think I'll be able to upgrade all the official upgrade in future through WiFi?Cause i heard when we use custom roms it's not possible to get the official upgrade through WiFi.That time all we need to download the upgrade file n flash it.

You don't need it. CF-root is only for those who want a rooted system with CWM. You can simply flash the rom using pc odin.

It's the official ICS rom for Germany. This means in theory it should be possible to download OTA updates. But I can't guarantee it since the rom is for Germany and it is possible that Samsung checks what rom for which geographical market is installed prior to providing the update for download. Maybe they refuse to update your system if the installed rom is from another country.
Thank u for ur reply.But i think when Samsung will release the Rom for my region i'll be able to flash it again?N should i use the same settings in odin? I mean only check the Auto Reboot n Reset time when i flash the official ICS Rom ?

About flashing via odin
Well I am having the same question.. Before rooting I made a backup using cwm, then my friend flashed ics stunner 5.0. I don't know how but it crashed and I restore my phone using cwm backup. Now it is the stock ics but the kernel is different.. It says abyss kernel.. My question now is that if I flash the rom using the above mentioned method will I get the stock rom+ stock kernel and second question, and what about the binary counter will it increase again.???
