I had a lot of problems at first too.
The first step you need to do root it with super one click root.
Do a search in the forums. There are several tutorials that explain how to use it. It's really simple.
Using that programs getting the phone to root was easy. The problem I had was the flashing part and getting Odin to work for the first time to install clock work recovery.

Do you mind providing a link? I really need to know the step-by-step procedure and see the reliabilty.

1) download the latest 2.3.6 JW4 firmware (for GT-I9000) from sammobile.com. Also download ODIN and flashing guide.
2) For CF-root , following the instruction on http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=788108.
If you don't want to upgrade to 2.36 then just follow link in the second step . That should have the instructions and the download link for your GB rom. Ensure that you pick the right tar file corresponding to your firmware version.

I am sorry but i am a little dumb and slow -.- I not quite get thr threadnposted by Chainfire, in which the link you provided. I am using a gingerbread 2.3.3 . So what am I supposed to do? Cos they say smth like CF-root Gingerbread (2.4 XXjvk or newer) . What does this actually means? And after that i couldn't get the whole chunk.

[Q] Kies claims my phone unable to update firmware.

Hello everyone.
Allow me to start by saying that i did tried to find the answer by searching the forums/ google but couldnt figure out most of what i stumbled upon,
So if this issue has been resolved in the past please recive my apolgies, i do not wish to bother anyone but i feel total lost, i saved each penny i could for this phone for a long time and im really scared to screw it up.
Now to my problem:
I own a galaxy note n7000. Never been rooted or something like that.. He stays exacly as i got him from the store.
The thing is im pretty sure (from what ive read) that i should get the ics 4.0.4 update, but when i was searching for updates in my phone
I found none. I tried updating from Kies but found out that my phone "does not support software update via Kies".
What i do know (or so i think...):
There could be some problem with my CSC? It dose not much my phone version or something like that?
What i think you need in order to help me:
Model number: gt-n7000
Android version: 4.0.3
Baseband version: n7000XXLPT
Kernel version: 3.0.15-N7000XXLPY-CL474507
Build number: IML74K.XXLPY
(I have no idea what my CSC or where to find it)
Any help would be welcome.
Thanks in advance.

1. Download pc odin at xda. ( use search button). And install on your pc.
2. Go sammobile.com and download ur desire ics 4.0.4 stock rom.
3. After downloaded stock firmware, place on ur pc and unzip it.
4. Launch pc odin , turn off ur devices, boot into download mode. And connect usb cable in between your devices and pc.
5. Once pc odin detected ur devices, you will see the comm box in yellow colour.
6. Press pda button and choose the rom tar.file and press start. Wait until finish and ur devices will auto reboot.
Reminder: never tick any box beside pda button.
Good luck.
Or you can refer at Dr.ketan thread. Is much more detail than mine.

Hi lee yun khong, thanks for your reply!
I saw dr.ketan guide but didnt fully understoond what i should do pre-installing the rom.
can i just install the new rom "over" the current rom and it will work? I dont have to do anything else?
Thanks.

no just download the rom u want ... put the phone in download mode and connect it to pc.. open PC odin and select the .tar.md5 file in the pda tab and flash it.
dont change any other settings in odin./

Yes. No prob at all. But some of the rom is non wipe. That means your all app, contact and message will remain after flash the new rom.

Thank you guys!
I got odin from dr.ketan guide and im right now downloading the 4.0.4 open germany rom from the list he supplied.
I want to refer to what dr.ketan wrote in his guide:
"Don't wipe anything from stock ICS recovery
Don't factory reset/Hard reset on stock ICS
Don't flash any Wipe version of ICS ROM"
I understand that the roms in his list are non-wipe so im good there.
But Since my current rom is stock ics 4.0.3, should i be worried?
Thanks.

No problem mate.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium

Well, that was easy.
Update went smooth and the phone shows im on ics 4.0.4, all system functions work as they should.
So as i understand it as long im just upgrading from stock to stock roms without wipe its a walk in the park.
What can i say?
Thanks a lot for taking the time to guide me Through this process and to answer my questions
With kindness and patience.
Cheers. :good:

make efs backup, best tip I can give you

[Q] Rooting the S I9000 I need advice!

Right guys
I am getting fed up on trying to root this phone using ODIN and the various CF-ROOTS but every time I do it some of them will just not flash some do flash but then the mobile does the reboot loop!
My mobile details are :
FIRMWARE - 2.3.3
BASEBAND - I9000BWJV2
KERNEL VERSION - [email protected] #2
BUILD NUMBER - GINGERBREAD.XWJVH
I honestly have tried lots of CF-ROOTS using the ODIN process but they just don't seem to work.
If somebody could just point me to the CF i need and the files i would appreciate it so much, it's getting really annoying now
Thanks all appreciate it :victory:

Download Odin 1.85 or 1.87 and the kernel Speedmod.
Use Odin to flash the kernel;
Put your phone in download mode.
Put the kernel file in the PDA slot.
Flash and let it reboot.

That's why XDA has a search function.
Before you go any further, I highly suggest you read and understand what you're doing to avoid anything going wrong.
