Alright guys, long story short, I was trying to flash the ICS Slim rom and had all sorts of issues. I had clockwork 3.x before, once I tried to flash ICS Slim I now have 5.x Problem is, now no matter what i do it just reboots back to recovery. i was wondering if there is a flashable zip somewhere to install an earlier version of the cwm? Ive been searching, and cant find anything! Something flashable through cwm would be nice.
Not happening.
first of all recovery is baked into custom kernels so normally that wouldn't be a big deal...but ics is in a different file format, so in order to get back to touch wiz based kernels and firmware, you'll need to flash to stock with Odin/heimdall

ICS is a CM based rom. You need to flash more than once for it to take. Might be why you are rebooting directly to recovery. I would wipe everything and reflash. That being said if you want to get back to stock ODIN your way back. Nothing else will work except that.

I installed ROM manager and flashed clockworkmod recovery but when I hit reboot into recovery it goes into the normal android recovery screen. I also tried doing a backup of my old rom but it just reboots into stock recovery screen and doesn't actually do the backup. I tried installing ROM from SD, same thing. I've tried different recovery versions (2.5.1.1, 2.5.1.2) but they all do the same thing. I'm rooted and it has superuser permissions, so that's not the problem. I have ROM manager premium. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling ROM manager. Please help.
Try installing it through stock recovery. (reinstall pakages)
What firmware you using?
rom manager is only good for eclair and froyo
there isnt a correct update.zip for the captivate on gingerbread.
if on gingerbread flash a kernel with CWM (clockwork) built in.
if on froyo/eclair you must select *reinstall package* from android recovery TWO TIMES in a row!
except FROYO has recovery3e also.....it will not allow unsigned update.zip files.
Ok. I'm on Froyo 2.2. Stock firmware. Trying to get either Fasty II or Cyan. First time doing all this. All this started with the GPS problem... (I know, I know. There's a thread for that.) Plus, I am interested in other ROMs. Just praying I don't kill my phone in the process.
you need to look at Odin/heimdall a CWM kernel, or fixing your recovery 3e to accept unsigned zips
^That. Fasty II needs Gingerbread bootloaders
OK. Well, really, I think I'd like to go Gingerbread. I dunno. There's too many to choose from. I want to get CWM working first. Where's the forum to install manually? There's so many places to look...
If you are going to GB flash a leaked stock first that contains boot loaders. Does your phone take well to 1 clicks?
Augh! I used Odin to flash the kernel. I had a temporary success. I had cwm up and it backed up my old rom. I rebooted twice into cwm. Third time, it reverted back to old android recovery. Like I said... Augh!
-Typed while driving on my Captivate- []
Flashed it again. Got CWM back up. Now, moving on to figuring out getting gingerbread. Any tips here are greatly appreciated as long as they make sense.
Also, what is 1 clicks?
Odin 1 click that will flash a leaked stock rom like 2.3.3 KF1 or 2.3.4 KH3 or 2.3.5 KI2. If they include Bootloaders you can just flash a cwm kernel and ready to flash any rom you like.
Would appreciate if someone could help me with my problem - I had earlier used CF-Root to root and install recovery which went off well, took a nandroid backup and then tried to flash CM9 through recovery. WIthin a few seconds it rebooted, showed the Cyanogenmod splash screen and went back into recovery - only this time it was a newer recovery (6.0.0.2) than what CF-Root had installed. I'm not able to install through zip file and for some reason I am not able to restore from nandroid as it says the md5 does not match. So as of now I am stuck in recovery.
To add to this, I realize that I messed up as the instructions said to update to a GB rom if coming from Froyo, which I did not notice. Any idea what I can do from here? If I can still run through this process can someone point me in the direction of a suitable GB ROM I can install? My end goal is to be on CM9, but right now would just be happy to get back to the stock GB ROM as well.
Flash to the stock firmware again? at SamMobile? That is what I did when my device did not boot up after installing CWM recovery and some rom.

Thanks sos_sifou - worked great! I think I'll stick with the Overcome GB ROM for a while as it works pretty good, and look at CM9 / 10 whenever it gets stable!
Hi guys I'm new to the N7000 forums, but I am no means new to the android and flashing scene. I'm just a bit confused as to how to safely install ROM's on the note.
I've attached a screenshot of my "about phone" so you guys can tell me what kernel I should flash before installing different ROMs
The ROM(s) I'm interested in flashing are Jellybam, Sweet ROM (JB version) and Ultimate jellybean. Can these roms work with any safe kernel? i.e. once iv'e flashed philz or franco kernel I can let the flashing begin.
Also do I need to flash a safe kernel in order to install cyanogenmod or other, not based on stock roms?
Forgot to mention that I am rooted. Any help at all would be appreciated, if I am wrong about anything so far, feel free to set me straight.
Thanks to all who responded, if anyone else wants to reply feel free but i'm going to mark this as resolved so their won't be any confusion.

if you are on stock kernel then download Philz kernel for LP7, flash that in recovery, should give you root again aswell. then you can flash away to any of the ROMs you listed above. just every time you flash a ROM or think of factory reset or data wiping make SURE you're on a SAFE kernel. that's all
as you are rooted, just install any safe kernel like hydracore or philz. thats all. then you can try out any rom. Just make sure you follow the instruction to flash the rom in the OP
I saw that the Philz kernel has a lot of different versions, which one do I choose, am I right in saying the UBLPC one, as that is my build number? Or any one can work, I also read that you should not flash with the temp CWM, I will admit though I used the temp CWM to flash the root files and i'm still ok but I don't want to take any chances, how do I flash with the stock recovery?

this is the one you use - PhilZ-cwm6-UBLPC-UUB-2.7
http://www.mediafire.com/file/35d4kd...2.7-signed.zip
the zip file mentioned above can be flashed using stock recovery. Put the file on ext SD card > boot into recovery > apply update from external storage > thats it

First, forget about the franco kernel. The franco kernel for the Note is outdated and thus useless. Second, if you plan to flash a JB leak the only kernel you should use is PhilZ. And especially important with the JB leaks is to stick exactly to the instructions how to flash. Otherwise your phone won't even boot.
Have fun with your device! The Note is still an outstanding phone.

Thanks guys for the quick replies, i'm gonna flash the philz kernel now and give the leaked version of JB a try.
make nandroid backup 1st..
Hello, and first of all, sorry for being such a noob. I did try searching the forums but found nothing to match my situation.
I rooted my i9000 a while ago and installed a custom kernel with Odin. I'm not sure what that kernel was called, but it came with CWM recovery. Anyways, I then installed the newest CyanogenMod and after that the newest version as it came out. Everything was fine until I decided I wanted KitKat. I went onwards and flashed a new custom ROM, the Mackay ROM. It seems that Mackay came with it's own TWRP-based recovery and the Mackay Kernel. I tried flashing CyanogenMod 11 Nightlies with it but it just returned me to Mackay (factory reset, ofc). I've searched and searched but haven't found a noob-friendly guide on how I could get things the way they were.
So, my question here is that how could I get that old kernel and CWM back onto my phone? I haven't enjoyed using Mackay and want my CM back. My GT-i9505 is currently in repair due to a swollen battery and my trusty GT-i9000 is my daily driver right now, so I'd really appreciate the help. Thanks in advance and sorry if a thread like this already exists.
Recovery and kernel aren't always put together. Just find the recovery thread and read it's instructions. They can be flashed separately.

Thank you, but just to clarify, do you mean the TWRP or the CWM recovery thread?

If Mackay ROM doesn't use different formatting than FAT32 or rfs (be sure of that) you can unbrick your i9000 upon my guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2444308
It goes step by step from flashing a stock rom with re-partition (PIT file), root, installing cwm recovery and then you can go further with CM installation.
If you've done nandroid backup of your CM you will can restore it as soon as you flash the same rom, kernel and cwm version like when you've created it.
Hello there.
I have a problem with my N7000. Today I've flashed stock firmware onto my phone, everything went ok, but I have a problem now. When I'm trying to install something from recovery, I can't. I select the ROM, everything is beeing checked, etc, and when it wants to install update, a message appears: "This packgage is for 'galaxynote,n7000,N7000,GT-N7000' devices: this is a ' '." . This happens with every single rom that I am trying to install via recovery. I tried to flash stock firmware two times, two different, still same effect, tried to whipe data/cache etc, still didnt got any effect. Any solution guys?
After you flash the stock ROM, the recovery will be stock as well.. You will not be able to flash roms from here.. For that you will need to flash philz kernel.
Well actually I can install anything via recovery, so installing kernel isnt possible.

I have exactly the same problem (and the same situation) as the OP. You cannot flash Philz kernel from stock recovery because the exact same error will pop up.
Right mate I think I got it. You will need to flash an older version of Philz kernel first, and then upgrade. Worked fine for me once I decided to install "05.05.2013 - PhilZ-cwm6 v5.00.4 with CWM 6.0.3.1 based recovery" first.
