You always loose root after flashing stock firmware! Should have flashed it with MobileOdinPro.
If you want root again, downgrade to a directly rootable rom (all versions till KL7) and reroot it with CFRootIntitialFlasher by Chainfire, thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1331784

you will need to use odin to flash an older stock rom, root it then use mobile opdin to flash the latestst stock version

I have flashed to KL3, but i failed at rooting it.
idk why, but the doomlord zerg v4 i used to root before won't work.
Just pick and download a stock rom from here (till KL7) http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/?page=3. Flash with Odin and reroot with InitialCFRootflasher http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1331784 and you`re done

So reflash KK2 with Odin and reroot it! and after that if you want to update stock firmware use Mobile Odin to flash and keep root and CWM

If I reflash KK2 would it keep all my stuff (contacts, apps, settings) or it will be as format?
Is there any other easier methods to root the LA1 or wait for it?
Iam new with Samsung and Odin, and read somewhere that mobile Odin will intact the 0 flashing (or something means that)
And also read that all flashing can be done via windows Odin (easier for me to deal via pc than mobile screen size)

No LA1 cannot be rooted directly unless you don`t care about raising the binary flash counter. I think KK2 is a wipe rom so yes you will losse everything on your internal disk, so copy the entire disk with windows task manager and put it back after you flashed KK2.
Odin can only be used with stock firmware, kernels or csc files, not custom files.
And try to read up about rooting, flashing and such things. There are threads enough around here.
Good luck

according to what I understood from you so far:
1 - I will reflash the Original stock rom KK2 by PC Odin
you said that KK2 will wipe my mobile and I should make a backup for my internal disk, So, Sorry to ask: what is this (windows task manager) and how to use it?
2 - I will root the KK2 same way I did last time
3 - I will flash the new update LA1 via Mobile Odin and it will keep my root and CWM
Does Mobile odin come in free or paid?

1. yes reflash KK2 using PC odin, I dont know wether KK2 is wipe version, if it is wipe, even you won't lose data on internal SD card, no meaning to take backup with window. If you want to backup your installed app + data, you must have Root.
alternatively you can choose non wipe version to reflash (e.g. KL3 india) it won't delete anything.
2. You have to Root Your relashed ROM (you can find how to Root guide on my signature)
3.Mobile Odin Pro is paid. Dont want to pay for mobile Odin Pro/ unable to purchase it, you can get Root + CWM, then update LA4 using CWM ( you may get installation guide link from my signature)
I will recommend to read all 4 links(first 2-3 post) on my signature,you will find answer of most of your questions
what if i tried to root my new ROM (LA1) using doomlord rooting kit, failed, and then downgrade it to KL3?
can i still use the doomlord easy rooting kit?
i tried this few times yesterday, but it still won't get rooted.
Ok, I reflashed by PC Odin my original stock rom KK2, and it was not wipe, I found everything is intact
But when I tried to root + recovery like before, did not work although I get on the screen (all done) but after reboot no root or CWM
I reinstalled Kies but still alot of errors when trying to do the rppt only or root+CWM
What should I do?
is there any way that I can wipe my phone and start as fresh as I can? what I did is :
boot to recovery and chooses wipe cache partition and Factory reset, it is all or there is something else can be done?
Edit : The wipe did it, and I have root and CWM now

Turn off your antivirus temporarily as it removes some components of your rooting tool which causes the error message.

Yes you can use doomlord method after downgrade.
check USB debugging on, close any PC sync SW, close Firewall, close antivitus. Try another PC.

Hi there, I need a little help from my Note.
I have read the instruction in the past post, and I decided to upgrade my firmware from KK1 to KL7, However, I realized KL7 can not be rooted yet, and now I would like to restore it back to my back-up KK1. But now Im encountered a problem.
I have rooted my KK1 and used the CWM to backup my KK1 and I upgraded the firmware KL7 with Mobile ODIN. then I realized the it is not longer rooted with the firmware KL7 and CWM is gone from my phone. so Im wondering how could i restore back to my back-up KK1.
File i used to upgrade my phone : N7000XXKL7_N7000OXAKL7_N7000XXKL7_HOME.tar.md5
I have tried to install the CWM into KL7 however nothing happened: I used the following steps to install the CWM
1. Run DooMLoRD_v1_UNROOTING/runme-UNROOT.bat
2. Use Root+package+Galaxy+Note
3. Replace CF-Root-SGN_XX_DBT_KL7-v5.0-CWM5/zImage file into Root+package+Galaxy+Note\Root n CWM galaxy Note\InitialCFRootFlasher\zImage
4. Run already-rooted.bat also tried not-rooted-yet.bat
No luck and I couldnt restore back to my backup KK1.
Could anyone help please
Thanks

Which method you have used to update KK1 to Kl7?
Anyway you have to :
Downgrade again to KK1 (with PC Odin)Get Root + CWM
Now you have to update KL7 with Mobile Odin, with keeping ever root option On.
Detail guide is here in post #2
you can choose either of 1 method

You need to enter in Download mode(Home+Vol Down+Power)
First open Odin
select PDA - point to Firmware tar file
then connect to PC, at this time yellow colour appears in COM field?

Thanks I have restore all my setting and apps back to KK1,
May I ask one more Qs, I want to update to LA1 now LOL, I saw the post which start I can root the LA1 with Mobile Odin Pro, with the ever rooted option on, is that true,
so what i need to do to update LA1 with root, is to download from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424997
and use the mobile odin pro as stated on the post?
Im so excited about updating to LA1
THanks
Hi Guys,
Need help on that one.
Flashed via Mobile Odin Pro from LA1 (rooted/cwm/cf-kernel la1) to LA4 keeping Ever ROOT option ON, but did not check to inject superuser/cwm/mobile odin.
Since LA4 is not a wipe rom all the above apps remained, but Mobile Odin, Titanium Backup keep on saying that they can't access root.
Lost CWM app also. Did a full backup before the whole thing, but recovery mode seem to be lacking backup restore now
You could flash back to KK4 using Odin(PC) and root it with zergrush.. Install mobile odin again.. Flash LA4 properly with mobile odin this time.. And you shouldnt lose any of your data or apps...
Thats what i did once..
OK, but it does not make sense to put so much effort knowing that have not lost root. I have flashed LA4 on to top of LA1 via Mobile Odin Pro with Ever Root option ON.
Because of not injecting CWM, I've lost recovery and busybox su binaries. Now I need to find the way to flash them back.
Maybe I should wait for LA4+CMW kernel from this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1329360
and then flash it using:
Execute "already-rooted.bat" and follow the instructions
or maybe I can flash LA3+CWM kernel to get CWM back, restore backed up LA1 and the flash LA4 again having all injection options turned on this time.
Correct mi if I'm wrong.
Its not much of an effort.. The process is rather quick(a few minutes).. Its perhaps the downloads that can take some time..
Edit: waiting for a quickfix often takes more time
Yeah, you're probably right, will flashing via Odin (PC) increase flashing counter?

If the rom you use is stock rom then it should not increase the 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).
Hello everyone,
I'm encountering some problems:
I'm running ROMOW v1 ICS but I want to change to another ROM, but that's impossible for me:
- Probably I lost root: cannot get root access or use apps which require root
- Cannot connect to pc for transferring ROMS: ROMOW gives problems with MTP, in CWM I cannot mount USB storage:
"E: Unable to open ums lunfile (No such file or directory)
So I cannot flash new ROMS 'cause I don't have the possibility to connect my Note to pc and I don't have root.
How to solve?
I want to run TeamRocket v1.4 ICS ROM
If you have lost root, you cant install custom ROM
Root is not needed to connect to PC, you can flash any older ROM with PC odin, get Root + CWM, then flash custome ROM using CWM

Dr. Ketan is right as usually. However, there might be an easier way for you to get out of trouble.
Read this.
Maybe you could start from scratch by:
Boot in downloadmode
Flash a stock rom from here using Odin. (warning: read the thread: newer stock roms are not rootable, use an older stock rom)
Root it again
Load a custom rom of your choice
hey I just had the exact same issue. put the phone into download mode, flashed netchips cwm update (I still had it lying around) and re-installed Xtra Lite Rom.

yes it has to. B'coz netchip method is very first method came to root, but now not used, just b'coz of that. right now you are running without warranty, if you are not concerning for same, nothing to worry, otherwise you need Jig to reset your counter. It should be 'zero', you have 2, means you did it two times.

Install Mobile Odin and flash your kernel of choice through there - I did the same yesterday, Updated to 4.0.4, rooted with Dr. K's Temp CWM to inject SUperSU and then used mobile Odin to Flash SpeedMod K3-11..
Just remember DO NOT WIPE / FACTORY RESET on STOCK ICS Otherwise you will brick your phone..

If you scare about the hardbrick issue, just follow dr.ketan method to unroot the phone.
If you wanna more secure, download any stock ics rom from sammobile.com and flash it thru pc odin. It wont give you any binary count increase and yellow triangle.

Install Mobile Odin and flash your kernel of choice through there - I did the same yesterday, Updated to 4.0.4, rooted with Dr. K's Temp CWM to inject SUperSU and then used mobile Odin to Flash SpeedMod K3-11..
Just remember DO NOT WIPE / FACTORY RESET on STOCK ICS Otherwise you will brick your phone..

Some Kernels are "Safe" to wipe on (SpeedMod/NoteCore etc) - I personally always downgraded to GB to do wipes / factory resets.
I believe there's a Mobile Odin Lite on this forum - you can grab it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1347899

There are other methods, but if you have the time this is the safest way for me still..
But - there are usually full instructions on the ROM threads so as long as you follow those you should be ok
