SOD help please - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am coming from rocket rom 22 but since I always had little bugs here and there, I had decided to choose LA4 stock rooted and slightly tweaked rom with franco kernel 7. It seems, with all custom roms, I have had some sort of SOD problems. One SOD every few days. then I flashed LA4 rooted and franco kernel 4, 5, 6, and now 7. It seems everything works well but I am getting one SOD every day. This does not happen when phone is in deep sleep it happens randomly. when I put my phone down and screen shuts off and then if I try to unlock my phone after a few seconds, i find the phone is in SOD. I have to take out the battery to re-initiate the phone. yesterday I was making a call and then phone shut off and went into sod. now I am all confused and a bit irritated.
what should I do? please help. I have resetted the phone a few times and still the same thing. Please help.

did you overclock your processor all the time?
P.S
Connect to the PC ODIN and flash stock rom., with any CF root kernel.

No over-clocking at all, rom is stock with slight tweaks.

then please flash stock rom with CF root kernel from PC odin.
After always use [SCRIPT] jBroid Kernel Cleaning before flashing kernels
P.S .
A lot of tweaks not compatible with some kernels.
PC odin also will remove all garbage from some folders where the standard recovery cant clean.
I also recommend to you later CheckROM Revo NoteHD™ V5.
Stay with stock kernel just to see if any SOD issues will appear again.

[Q] Crazy screen startup on my i9000T

I have a Samsung Galaxy S i9000T from Claro Guatemala, recently I updated it with the official Froyo 2.2.1 JPY ROM from samsung using the kies patch.
This update converted my i9000T to a normal i9000.
After the update every time I turn on my phone my screen goes completely crazy for about 1/2 second and then the Samsung i9000 black screen with white letters comes in and everything is normal again, no more bugs or display errors after that point.
it looks like a broken screen (like the image i uploaded) but without the crack lines.
just random colors and lines.
I think it must besomething like the screen driver coming a little bit late. Could you please help me?
Try the custom ROM...there are many of them to choose from.
Maybe something went wrong when you converted your phone.
thanks for your opinion but I actually like the JPY ROM from samsung, i find it very stable and problem free, i just would like to remove that annoying bug!
If you can acces to download mode, then maybe you should try to flash via Odin a clean install JM5 > JPY.
nothing to worry about same on mine it is the custom kernel.. if you flash back stock kernel it goes away..
tied 3 kernenls they all do it
cf root kernel, speedmod kernel, bln kernel

Hey, thanks for the info, do you know anyway of removing it without loosing the custom kernel? im on Voodoo 5.2 kernel and Froyo JPY 2.2.1 btw
nope no way that i know of.. i wouldnt worry about it.. for warranty you will have to flash back to stock kernel anyway as all the others say i9000 instead of i9000t.. i have been running that way for over a month now.. no issues.. from what i read it is just the kernel initializing the graphics cpu... not sure why stock kernels dont do it.

[Q] Contacts Screen Lag!!

Dear All,
I have Note 2.3.6 stock rom rooted
I started with 2.3.6 KK2 stock rom with root without any lag on contacts screen, then I updated my phone by flashing LA1 stock rom also with no lag problem or battery, but when I flashed CF-Root-SGN_XX_OXA_LA1-v5.0-CWM5 for root with CWM, I noticed the battery consumption is higher (but still ok, or is there a better one?) and the most annoying thing is the contacts screen lag: when I push the contacts icon it lags for exactly 8 seconds to show the contacts
my question is this lag came from the flashed file or not?
Can I flash the original kernel from KK2 stock rom? there were no lag and the battery consumption was perfect
is there any solution 4 that? if u have one then please explain to me why (this solution) and how to do it
I'd try flashing Franco's kernel if I were you. It's fast, stable and very easy on the battery. It is flashed from CWM Recovery, a piece of cake.
I'm using it as a combo on several Roms, and all of them spring contacts almost instantaneously.
Of course, you can always re-flash CF-Root if you don't like it.
thank you chasmodo for your reply,
Does your Franco Kernel will effect the root and the CWM or not?

Franco kernel will not affect your root and CWM in any way. However, flashing stock kernel or Rom will result in losing your root for sure.

Iam reading now about the franco kernel (page 5 now) and found a lot of users have a problem with heat and bootloop (u r 1 of them) is this may be in first issues? which version u r using now and how it is regarding over heat since iam using it in a warm country
One of the early version had heat issues (4 I believe), but Franco is now at No 6 (I'm using this one ATM), which is just fine, no problems, great battery life.

Is there special settings for this kernel, I read about governer which is very new to me, all what I used to do before is just flash the kernel and thats it.
Does flashing this kernel via the CWM recovery will increase the flashing count (because of warranty)?
If I made a backup (CWM) before flashing this Kernel and did not like, If I restore the backup would I get the old Kernel or I must reflash it?

No special settings for the governor at all, don't worry about that, just flash it and you're OK. And it won't increase you binary counter.

Ok , will do
Sorry to ask, should I flash it by choosing flash kernel from CWM app, or by choosing install from zip file from CWM Recovery screen?
Install from zip file, then browse to the file.

The guilds quickly get confusing, I have done a great deal of flashing device over the years, but have never been this lost.
Help/warnings are welcome
Hey man! Seems like you want to upgrade from GB to ICS on the Galaxy Note. GB is far more stable and bug free on the Galaxy Note. This is one device where upgrading to ICS is more of a downgrade. So to be honest i would recommend that you stay on GB until samsung get out a stable ICS ROM for the Note.
Firstly what i would recommend you to do is download chinfires app called Gotbrick.(Google it) Install the app on your Note on GB and see the verdict. The verdict will tell u if your Note has the eMMC brickbug. If the verdict tells "Danger" then upgrading to ICS is equal to suicide because all stock ICS kernels are known to have the eMMC_Erase functionality which will cause this bug to superbrick your phone.
However if you still want to take the rist then the steps to upgrade are: you can try the connecting your phone to your PC and run kies. It will automaticly check for updates and install them. Another method is using the phone itself. Goto Settings>About Phone>Software Update and check for updates. It should update to ICS automatically.
If none of the above work then use the ODIN method:
For the ODIN method the steps are:
1- Register and Download the Stock ICS for your region from here:http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/?page=3&t=1&o=1&m=GT-N7000&r=-1#modelsa
2-After download you should get a zip file. Unzip the content. You will get a .tar.md5 file.
3- Next get ODIN v1.83 (download it if u dont have it)
4- Make sure you have Samsung Drivers Installed on your PC and put your phone in download mode(Volume Down + Home + Power) and connect it to your PC using USB Cable
4- Then run ODIN as admin and then click the PDA button and choose the .md5 file you extracted. Make sure only Auto Reboot and F.Reset Time are checked in ODIN. Then click the start button and Let it flash the new Firmware.
After flash complete you should have Stock ICS 4.0.3 on your Note. What i would recommend is to flash a safe ICS kernel like Speedmod N7000 k3 on it to prevent it from getting bricked.
If this helped please click the Thanks button! Cheers!
Sorry to be a noob,
but i couldn't get a download link for the *chinfire's app Gotbrick* to check whether my SGN is not from *DANGER* to Stock ics update. =(
Looks like it's "Chainfire"
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1693704
OK, here's my experience with upgrading to ICS. I've had my note for about 2 months and have been following the forum trying to learn. It's very confusing to me and I was afraid to do anything so I did nothing. I live in Melbourne, FL and use Straight Talk. My note was purchased from Newegg and had a Brazil build number. Several days ago someone posted that Brazil was now on the "update to ICS" list, so I thought I'd check it out with kies. I use linux so I had to boot into my Windows 7 Ultimate OS(ugh). I opened kies and it said it could be updated to newer version, so I updated kies. Then I pluged in my note and low and behold it said update version available! I sweated a little and decided to go for it. It updated smooth as silk with no problems and now I have ICS! I have all the apps with all the data I had before update.
The new ICS is much quicker and smoother than GB, the difference is immediately noticable.
All the phone info changed to new numbers(android, baseband, kernel version and build number) and I didn't think to write it down so I can't post what it was. Anyway hope this info helps someone.
I agree that the update makes the UI quicker but however it makes the brick bug effective in the ICS kernel. With GB although the UI is slower, there is no risk of brick bug.
So its ur choice to choose between a relatively slower UI with no brick bug Or a faster UI but risking your phone. I recommend installing a custom GB rom which is stable and fast.

Hey, so I got really excited when ics came out and instanly went out to flash the repack (stupid, I know) and I checked and I do have the brickbug. So I know that I shouldn't flash using clockwork or do a factory reset and I wanna take your advice and flash a safe kernel like Abyss.
So I just wanna know if I should just flash it through clockwork and then I'll be ok right? My phone's performance and everything wouldn't be affected right? Also would prefer rather not downgrading to GB.
Thanks!
So yea, I do have the bug, but before I found out, I flashed ICS. Panic when I found out I could brick my phone, then flashed back
Question: Even though I have the bug, if I flash Stock Indian ICS, then Speedmod, will I be safe?

Ok firstly i would like to say that if you do have the bug and are already on ICS then instead of downgrading to Gingerbread, try to flash a safe kernel. But stay away from Clockworkmod. Do not flash using CWM. Instead use ODIN to flash any kernel from the following:
Speedmod kernel
Franco Kernel
CM9 Knightlies
The best of these kernel is Speedmod kernel which has the best performance and best battery life. I have already made a tutorial on how to do this, just follow the steps on the tutorial found here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o5K5Wm_201Y

Before you flash anything tell me what are you running currently? are you running a stock ICS or a Custom ROM? If you are running stock ICS then you can easily flash Speedmod kernel with ODIN and you will be safe. You can see my tutorial here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o5K5Wm_201Y

Ok, really appreciate the advice will try the speedmod kernel through ODIN, but I also have mobile ODIN installed, but I shouldn't use that then I assume. Thanks again!
Currently on a leaked LPY ICS and I have the dangerous kernel. I'm suffering from poor battery life at the moment.
What do you suggest I do? Should I go back to GB or give a new kernel a try?
If I flash a new kernel over LPY will it be safe to perform a factory reset?

Q Which kernel on SGN_XX_OXA_KJ1_FACTORYFS?

Hey Guys,
i am coming from galaxy spica (after 2,5 year of rooting) now i have bought galaxy note in Austria with simlock.
So i have make a root, use apk Galaxy_S Unlock and back unroot (i have still 1,5 year garanty, but i am not sure after this unlocking
I had kernel unrootable LA4,
so 1. I made via odin SGN_XX_OXA_KJ1_FACTORYFS
2. CFROOt_for_kernel_KJ1.rar
3. CF-Root-SGN_XX_OXA_LA4-v5.0-CWM5.zip
5. unroot via DooMLoRD_v1_UNROOTING
but what i dont understand (on galaxy spica was jut froy 2.2 and many difrent kernel or mod)
how or which version of kernel i can put now?
I would like to update on 4.0.4 (first 2.3.6) via kies or OTA doesnt work. I would like to keep without root.
Now i am downloading 2.3.6. - N7000XXKKA_N7000OXXKK5_ATO.zip but after reading many thereads i am not sure if i can put any kernel on KJ1?
Thank you for a little explanation.
I would like to know if on kernel KL1 (2.3.5) is possible to put any kernel ??? (4.0.4) ?
Go back to stock GB ROM using PC odin.Instructions are in dr.ketan's thread.
Update via Kies or flash stock ICS 4.0.4 using PC Odin again.
What a mess..
Go back to stock gb.. Then flash any known ics safe kernel (notecore/speedmod) via odin(you already gotta have the custom rom in your sd so once the phone restart go straight to cwm and wipe/data/cache/dalvik) recovery keys are volume up+power+home
Then flash any desired(custom) rom after that run triangle away to get rid of the yellow triangle and that's it(encourage you to try cleanote rom its super fast and as close to stock as posible with Notecore kernel) the phone flies and battery its great
Stock its laggy and loaded with crap and the stock kernels are unsafe to wipe/factory reset due to the Emmc brick bug..
Avoid stock kernels as much as you would avoid walking through shyt

Thank you guys,
i have already stock rom 4.0.4 LRG opened germany kernel, everthing is working. I would like to stay with this stock room and wait for official JB.
If will JB be not better than mayby a root. But I need my phone for use not for playing. Like my old Spica. Always was something wrong. So many many kernels or mod.
Just of what am i disappointed its battery live. My tread here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1830995
I tried all off, like sync. but still one day of very light use it not good.
Maybe will i have to make a root and wipe all... :-/

Stock Based Roms Not Working!!!

So about a week ago I bought this samsung galaxy s3 lte gt-I9305, after 2 days i rooted it and installed Agni custom kernel. No problems yet. Then about 3 days ago I installed cm12.1 and i noticed that the Agni custom kernel wasn't working on it (Sleep of Death, Lag, Stuttering, Freezing.) And now I tried to flash the stock firmware via odin and It lags like hell and keeps freezing and rebooting right after i get to choose my language. The other stock based roms won't work either. Please help. And sorry if bad english.

I always use right kernel for the roms I install. Oddly the stock firmware I tried to install is now working. The only problem is that it now freezes in 5-15 minutes.
