Hi fellows,
I need your guidance and expert advice in resolving a situation, I have ran into recently. I was trying to install CM10.1 on my brother's galaxy Note GT-N7000 international version which was running official ICS 4.0.4.
Since, I had experience in installing different ROMs on my Galaxy S2, Nexus 7 and Xperia Arc so I was not worried about it being a big deal. So, I followed the procedure described in this page http://techgoneinsane.blogspot.com/2012/08/installing-cm10-on-galaxy-note-n7000.html?m=1 and used Odin and file from 'speedmod' to gain root access and flash CWM which was successful. Then, as planned, I tried update zip in the CWM recovery for CM10.1 nightly. But, I came across error 'Status 7' installation aborted. This was new to me, so I tried few things like 'factory reset', wipe data etc and even tried installing stock ROM ICS XXLRK which was previously installed but no avail. I tried several other ROMs like stable CM9 and other nightlies but no success. The phone is stuck on the boot Samsung logo with yellow triangle. However, I'm able to go in the recovery and download mode.
Upon doing couple of Google searches, I came to know, quite a number of people have faced this error by I couldn't understand the fix properly so can anyone of you please guide me for the solution. Thanks.
Your help will be greatly appreciated.

If you are on Speedmod's recovery (which is safe), you can try this:
1) Download the latest CM10.1 kernel and save it to your SD card.
2) Flash it in Recovery (Install zip from sdcard > choose zip from sdcard), then reboot in the new Recovery (advanced > reboot recovery).
3) Do a full wipe (even format preload and system in "mounts")
3) Flash the latest CM10.1 build
4) Flash the 4.2.2 Gapps
5) Do a data wipe / factory reset
6) Reboot
You got a yellow triangle because you flashed an unofficial kernel through Odin. To get rid of it, use TriangleAway.
Good luck!

You're welcome. Glad I could help . If you feel like it, hit the Thanks button on Chasmodo's first message in the repository (where you downloaded your CM10.1 kernel). He really deserves it. You may also want to do the same on Entropy's first post in the unofficial CM10.1 thread :good: That way, you'll show your support and appreciation :angel:.
hello i am new to xda forum and i agree that i have very little knowledge so need detailed help...i have samsung tab 8.9 p7300 and went through many threads for making calls....recently i upgraded my tab from honeycomb to ics(stock)

i have my ics running and wanted want to make calls from it...
so i went here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1875024
my tab is not rooted and i went to download mode but couldnt find the "apply update from sd card"
in the box and anroid symbol i had these options only:

wipe data/factory reset
wipe cache partition
apply update from cache
now what to do??i need to make calls from the tab and i know its possible....i want the call ability along with the stock ics...please help me out........thanks in advance
You need to install a clockwork mod recovery with odin. You can then use that to root and flash the .zip you want to flash. If you google around the android dev forum, and in particular the stickies there, you should be able to find good instructions on how to do this.
Dear XDA developers,
I wish to ask for help upgrading my Samsung Galaxy S1 (I9000) software to a better version, because the phone currently seems sluggish to me. The details of my phone, as seen in "About phone", are as follows:
Model number: GT-I9000
Firmware version: 2.3.6
Baseband version: I9000XXJVU
Kernel version: 2.6.35.7-I9000XXJVU-CL851880 [email protected] #2
Build number: GINGERBREAD.XXJVU
Using *#1234# on the keypad tells the following:
PDA: I9000XXJVU
Phone: I9000XXJVU
CSC: I9000OXAJVU
Build Info: Thu Dec 29 16:42:13 KST 2011
My phone is not rooted, as far as I know it is currently running a stock ROM. A previous owner of the phone had flashed various ROMs but had returned it to stock before I received the phone.
If I understand correctly, I need to start the upgrade process by rooting my phone. How do I do that for my phone version? I've seen references to Odin and to various ZIP files containing kernels made by Chainfire, but I don't know which version of Odin, and which ZIP file, is correct for my phone.
I apologize if you have answered these questions many times over, I've spent time reading FAQs and tutorials, but I did not find a suitable one: in particular, my baseband version ends with XXJVU whereas many tutorials refer to e.g. XXJW4 or XXJW5. I found a thread that mentions "JVU", but it was about flashing JVU and rooting, whereas my phone already has XXJVU but is not rooted.
Thanks for any help!

Thanks a lot both to Soryuu and to compacity, I followed your instructions and they worked on the first attempt, so now my phone is rooted.
For the benefit of others, below is a detailed list of what I did. Steps 4 and 9 are just precautions/doublechecks, the rest are part of the actual rooting process, and basically correspond to Chainfire's "Instructions (long)" in post 3 of this thread.
My steps for rooting my phone:
I downloaded the ZIP file with the kernel from Soryuu's link, and extracted the .tar file out from the ZIP.
I downloaded a version of Odin: I checked Chainfire's descriptions in this thread, and found that the version of Odin compatible with the Galaxy S1 i9000 is Odin version 1.83 (newer versions are apparently not compatible with i9000 anymore), so I downoaded version 1.83 from the link in that thread.
I checked that my phone can enter download mode, using the instructions here. I did not yet flash anything at this stage, instead I just rebooted the phone.
I backed up my data. I manually wrote down notes that I had entered in the stock "Memo" app, I synced e.g. my calendar to Google, and I backed up the data in some of my downloaded apps to files on the , using their own backup features. I also wrote down my phone info like the info in my original post, my IMEI number, and so on: basically everything I can see in "System settings/About phone", "System settings/About phone/Status", and from typing *#1234# on the keypad; also anything in "Mobile network settings" in case there are some operator settings I would not remember. Lastly, I USB-connected my phone to my computer and copied all the backup files, and also things like camera files (DCIM directory) to the computer.
I disconnected the phone from the computer and turned it off.
I started the Odin version I had downloaded, called "Odin3 v1.83.exe" (I ran it as administrator, just in case it needed administrator permissions for something). In the Odin interface I clicked the "PDA" button, then selected the .tar file I had downloaded. I then looked at the "Re-Partition" checkbox to make sure it was not activated.
I put my phone into download mode, and then USB-connected it to the computer. Windows took some time to install some drivers. After Windows was done installing its drivers, I clicked the "Start" button in Odin.
Odin performed some operations, and the messages in the Odin window reported success. My phone rebooted at the end, I waited for the reboot to complete.
After the phone had rebooted, I checked to see that it now had "CWM" (CWM Manager v2.0) and "Superuser" apps installed. The CWM app reported that I was currently running kernel "CF-Root 4.3" as desired.
Now that my phone is rooted, I could next proceed to upgrading the operating system by flashing a ROM. A few questions about that:
I would also like to ask your recommendation: what is a good ROM to upgrade to? I am not looking for the latest features, mostly I hope to achieve better speed and responsiveness for the phone, especially considering the limited memory in Galaxy S1. Is it worth going to Ice Cream Sandwich or Jelly Bean based ROMs, or should I stay with Gingerbread ROMs, or even stay with the stock ROM?
If I flash a new ROM and dislike it after all, can I go back to the ROM I started from if I have made a backup with CWM, simply by restoring that backup? Or would I need to download a Samsung stock ROM from somewhere and flash that?
Thanks again for any help!
1)I dont recomend ROMs because its personal. You can look at developement section and see which one you will like the most..
2)Most ROM threads provide install instructions but ill provide "universal" one:
A) Download your ROMs zip file and place it on your INTERNAL (!) Sdcard
B) reboot to CWM recovery
C) (navigate with volume keys / home key = confirm)from there go to "backup and restore" and make a backup (make sure you have enough space on INTERNAL (!) sdcard
D) After the backup go to wipe data / factory reset. Click ok. After that go to wipe cache. And after that go to Advanced -> wipe dalvik cache.
E) now youre ready to click on flash zip from sd card click it and select rom file and confirm... (install google apps if told by tutorial for specific rom.)
You should be running new rom.
And yes, you can restore backup by going to CWM > backup ans restore > restore > (select your backup)
Hope ive been some help! If what happens, you can always ask me (PM / this thread (but pm is better ) i will try to help you as much as i can

Dear foggydisaster and others,
please help, I tried your instructions but something has gone wrong.
I tried installing the RemICS-JB ROM from this thread, using your instructions (which are the same as the instructions in that thread), but something went wrong.
Here is what happened:
I copied the ROM ("RemICS-JB_v5.zip") onto my phone's internal SD card.
I rebooted into CWM, and selected "Wipe data/ factory reset". That completed successfully.
I then selected "Wipe cache", again it completed successfully.
I then selected "Advanced -> Wipe dalvik cache", which completed successfully.
I then selected "Install zip from sdcard", and picked "RemICS-JB_v5.zip". At this point something went wrong. Instead of completing the whole installation, the phone rebooted, and showed a "Powered by MacKay kernel" screen, and froze there.
After waiting some time, I tried turning off the phone, but it immediately rebooted, and again froze at the "Powered by MacKay kernel" screen. This happens every time I try to turn off the phone.
I tried getting into download mode; it seems I can still do this.
I then tried getting into recovery mode, and I was able to do so, but it was not CWM recovery, it was "MacKay recovery (twrp) v2.5.0.0".
I tried going into "Install" in MacKay recovery, and tried to reinstall "RemICS-JB_v5.zip", but I got the following message: "Installing '/sdcard/RemICS-JV_v5.zip' ...; Checking for MD5 file...; Skipping MD5 check: no MD5 file found.; Verifying zip signature...; E:Zip signature verification failed: 1 ; Error flashing zip '/sdcard/RemICS-JB_v5.zip'; Updating partition details...; E:Unable to mount '/data' ; E:Unable to mount '/system'
So that's where my phone is currently stuck. I tried checking to see if I could restore my CWM backup, but MacKay does not seem to find my CWM backups.
How can I rescue my phone from this situation? Thanks for any help!

I think you should try reflash stock gingerbread (!) with ODIN with pit (512) and repartition checkbox hit (upper left corner) Then root it with CF-ROOT kernel. and retry flash the ROM with instructions i gave you earlier. But this time when your phone suddenly freaks out and quits recovery - its normal... Just wipe everything again from TWRP interface (If you get confused ill tell you how to) and reflash it and you shoud be good... Try that and tel me what happens
OK so... (and TO EVERYONE SORRY FOR THIS NOVEL, I JUST NEED HELP REALLY BAD)
First off i own two droid products
- Motorola Droid X2 (Rooted - Flashed with Eclipse Custom ROM)
- Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G (MetroPCS version SGH-t599N) (Just recently rooted today by way of Cydnia Impactor, SU access ready)
Now from page 1, seeing this thread is directly related to the SGH-t599N model, I have been sitting here for 5 hrs trying to flash the CM10.1 and gAPPs to my Exhibit with no avail... I've had slight problems rooting the X2 so trial and error is expected but this is taking to long and the install instructions on page 1 lack clarity...
I tryed with both Goo Manager and Rom Manager to flash the ROM in and get hits with these problems:
Goo.im(Manager app): Tap app<grants SU promissions< tap menu< tap Install OpenRecovery...<are you sure confirmation screen: YES< looking for recovery< No recoveries were found on your device (even tho i have both TWRP and CWM ready)...then i tap Flash ROMs<important message screen pops (you must have openrecoveryscript with two options
-a.)try to find one for me ((tapping leads to "No recoveries were found on your device"))
-b.) I already have one installed ((Tapping leads to No GooManager Folder...add and order button are there but clicking/tapping gives me the same "No GooManager Folder" response...Dead end.
Rom Manager(Manager app):Tap app<grants SU promissions<tap Recovery Setup< its ask to set up recovery by installing or update CMW recovery or option 2, Recovery already installed with listed options CMW and TWRP...clicking on either CMW from option 1 or 2 both lead to select model ((Samsung GS i9000, Epic4G, S3 MetroPCS, or Prevail 2 Boost Mobile which none are my SGH-t599N leaving me with the last option, "Device not listed above"< Tap "Device not listed above"< Message: SGH-T599N does not have an official supported CMW recovery yet, Have you installed a CMW based recovery manually...(asumming the CMW apk ive Downloaded i hit YES< ask for type CMW2.x or CMW 3.x+< ROM manager has been set to the existing Recovery< returns me to menu screen again with listed recovery as ((CURRENT RECOVERY: CMW 5.X.X.X Lastest Recovery 6.0.4.5 CMW Touch is available!...whatever that means...
then i click ROM manageement option: Install ROM< I select cm-10.1-20130922-Unofficial-codinamtr.zip and since using the basic version i can only do one zip at a time,its not loaded in the ROM addons section....heres were it gets weird....
I tap Install option: Reboot and Install< ask if i want to install in CMW< i confirm and it reboot to what looks to be some type of recovery screen, which ive seen before when rooting my DX2...but this time its missing the option to install Update.zip which was the option i chose to install my Eclipse Firmware on the DX2.. the blue text screen i see say and quote
Android System Recovery <3e>
Volume Up/Down to move and power to select
Reboot System Now
apply Update for ADB

this screen scares me a bit as when i was rooting the Dx2 I bricked my phone several times from this screen so knowing this i am hesitant from
select anything from this screen. so i click on reboot now and it returns me back to my normal setting with nothing changed and returning to full circle of trying to figure out how to flash the darn ZIP file........I am in extreme need of knowledgeable and successful people with the CM working properly on the Samsung Exhibit 4g (MetroPCS SGH-t599N)...
Any help? Sorry again for the novel, i just want to be as descriptive as possible

So I booted up to SS again and now whenever I select factory wipe or system wipe or try to mount I get the same message E:Unable to mount ‘/system’ and E:Unable to mount ‘/systemorig’
And now im stuck with no phone and cant install any ROM
