I have searched at the development page but I am not quite understand what to do for rooting LA4. Expect downgrading the firmware, is there any other ways to root N7000? I have already brought the micro USB resistant which can reset the binary count.
Baseband version: N7000XXLA4
Kernel version: [email protected]#2
Builder number: GINGERBREAD.ZSLA2
have you tried this???
Well, if you don't mind getting the yellow triangle and tripping the binary counter, the simplest way to root LA4 would be:
1. Download CF-Root LA4 kernel to your PC
2. Start PC Odin
3. Boot your Note into Download Mode (volume down + home + power)
4. Connect your phone to the PC
5. Wait for the drivers to get installed and for Odin to recognize your phone
6. Click on PDA and navigate to the CF-Root XL4 kernel
7. Click Start
It'll take about 10 seconds and your phone will be rooted. However, your binary counter will show 1.

I didn't try this as my ROM is Hong Kong version. Let me provide you more information.
Baseband version: N7000XXLA4
Kernel version: [email protected]#2

If you use the method you provided, would I lost my Hong Kong ROM?

I have brought a JIG (301ohm) Micro-USB. It can reset the counter, right?
Switch off the N7000 and reinstall the battery. Then put the JIG in the phone and remove it after getting download mode. That's all?
If it can do so, I will root by the method you provided.
Thank!!

Yeah you are going to use your hong kong rom.You cant root the rom which you have now.You have only three options:
1.Download and flash a pre-rooted stock rom and flash cf-root kernel to get cwm
2.Use Dr.ketan's method.Downgrade to rootable rom,use the script,upgrade to any rom using mobile odin
3.This method only can make you stay in your current Rom.Thats the method chasmodo said.Flash a cfroot kernel through PC odin.But by this method you get triangle and increase counter.
You cannot reset counter or remove triangle with jig as such.There is a sticky in Dev section for it.

That means I can choose either one of them and root, after that, i can use mobile odin pro to upgrade to ZALA2 (HK ROM) again?
And I can also unroot by flashing with stock ROM and kernel?

Rooted and flash back the original rom successfully with half an hour!
Hi,
I am new to Android Phones. I tried to root my Galaxy Note using the above method
2. Long, No raised couter OR Exclamation mark
-Downgrade to Rootable GB ROM and Root it. OR Download This pre rooted GB ROM and flash using PC Odin
-Wipe cache, data and delvic cache from recovery
-Install Mobile Odin Pro
-Copy ICS ROM file in .tar (you want to flash) to Internal SD card (recommended, but you can have it on EXT too)
-Download Odin (.tar) version of custom kernel like Notecore, Speedmod, CF root kernel Or other any with same function. If newbies have confusion to select, here is one for example Notecore V12 std kernel. You can use this. But newer version can be found on link mentioned above.
-Open Mobile Odin Pro
-select open file
but i run mobile odin without downloading the odin version of custom kernel (I got confused, I thought I needed to do thisafter running mobile odin) and now my phone is stuck in flashing mode for about 45mins switching on and off.
What should I do?
Thank you in advance for your help...

Flash Pre rooted ROm again Wipe cache and data and repeat procedure, that will be safe.
It worked! Thank you!
Just a quick question...
I followed all the steps mentioned on the thread up to installing mobile odin and copying the ics rom....
but I am confused with the odin version of custom kernel...I am trying to find the correct cf-root kernel through the link you provided but I can not find the KJ1. I downloaded the one you have attached below mobile odin screenshots. Is that ok?
And also where do I copy the kernel? Internal or external sd? Should it be in a specific directory in order to be detected by mobile odin?
Sorry for all these questions but I looked around and there is no specific instructions anywhere about this part.
Thank you...
Which rom you want to flash?

Since I am new to the android platform phones, I think it will be better if i explained what my objective is so I won't confuse you too....
I want to be able to install and use rooted applications like titanium back up. I read that in order to do this I have to root my phone.
So what I want to do now is to root my phone in order to use ie titanium black without upping my flash counter.
Also I do not care to have a custom ICS, I prefer the stock one for now until I become more familiar with all these.
I followed the steps but the customn kernel things has confused me.
My phone is as mentioned before a galaxy note with ICS 4.04 before I started the procedure, now I have Gingerbread 2.35.
What should I do?
Thank you

You will have CWM and rooted device.After that you can use Titanium Backup and all other applications which required root
Sahil hez on gb rooted.rom. So no need to flash custom kernel with pc odin. i think mobile odin will b best for him.

Go to first link on my signature, download any ics rom you want
Download notecore kernel std tar version

Thank you for the quick reply!!!
Just to be sure, when you say first method you mean the one below
1. Short, easy - requires to reset counter
-Download Odin (.tar) version of custom kernel like Notecore, Speedmod, CF root kernel Or other any with same function. If newbies have confusion to select, here is one for example Notecore V12 std kernel. You can use this. But newer version can be found on link mentioned above.
-Flash it using PC odin for PDA tab.
-You will get exclamation mark and raised counter, which can be reset with Triangle Away
-First time opening triangle away application, it will ask to download file(flasher), let it complete. then choose to reset counter, it will restart in special recovery an finish job.\
If yes, then this brings us back - almost - to my original question....how do i use the custom kernel (cf or notecore) with odin? I know it uzips to a zimage etc but how do I use it which odin? Also which cf kernel -if iuse this one- is correct for my phone? Is there a link you can provide that explains all these?
Thank you!

I'm not sure if my steps were correct 100%. And I did not backup also.

Here what I did:
1- Entered root mode
2- install zip from sd card
3- apply/sdcad/update.zip

What firmware were you running? Take into consideration that abyss kernel is gingerbread. If you were running an ICS ROM then that is why is not booting. If that is your case, find hydracore kernel (flashable zip version) and flash it in CWM. :thumbup:

Would help to know what is your goal (flash rom, kernel, modem or simply having cwm recovery). There is a well written guide in the Q&A: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1350266
But Zestar pretty much explained it. You'll need Odin 1.85 (which you will find in the guide) and a custom kernel (doesn't matter much which one as long as it supports cwm recovery). You have a lot of reading to do before jumping into this and I highly suggest it! I also bricked once outta being hasty, won't happen again
Took me almost two days to figure this out, cannot post in development forum, so here it is:
Problem:
"old rooting files" are not working with newer ICS stock rom, tried with all the here for Tab 8.9 existing guides.
Solution:
Took the root file from the (almost similar) Tab 10.1 for ICS from this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1807219 which has a link to this file:
http://www.shabbypenguin.com/users/...alaxytab10.1/Samsung_Galaxy_Tab_10.1_root.zip
Installed it with cwm recovery 5.5.0.8 (install zip file from sdcard)
and it finally worked on the 8.9 running 4.0.4 ics stock (UK/European Version)!
Combined with the a1 1.7.3 overclocking kernel, the tab now works like a charm
overclocked with app "voltage control" to 1400 Mhz.
edit: this is for model p7300/p7310 (tegra 2 versions) only

Perhaps you should use another root tool. I used a busybox.zip-file.. Just flash it the same way; via CWM (install zip from sd-card)
The file is in the attachments
And if this doesn't work either, you might wanna update your CWM version first, before you flash the root tool. I have it attached as well. Updating CMW is done the same way as flashing a root tool, so: launch CMW 5 and install the CMW6.0.0.8.zip from sd-card.
Here you go!

and flash root.original there.
are you sure superoneclick are proven to work? Because a failed root attempt using superoneclick usually make tablet slow and need to hard reset
Have no idea. If in doubt flash cwm with odin and then root.

Is this working ? Is there another way to root SGH i957 running ICS ?
Thank you
Hi guys, I am looking for some help with this. I have tried the superoneclick way and the program hangs and does not complete. I have also tried the other way, using the odin flashable CWM 5.5.0.4, but when I install it and boot into recovery, the option screen scrools so fast that I cannot see what I am selecting in order to load the root file.
Can anyone tell me if this is a known issue with this version of CWM? Does anyone know of another odin flashable version of CWM that I could try?
Thanks in advance!

Hey, its a P7310 running stock UK ICS firmware. I double checked the setup and it turns out I was using a different version of ODIN (3.07), so maybe that is the reason?

Maybe it's odin. I've always used 1.85 but others have had luck with ver 3. Try to reflash cwm with 1.85. And make sure cwm is for the p7310. To root I've always flashed super su-busy box thru recovery.
