Boot into download mode (Vol down+Menu+Power).
After that you will be presented with a screen which says "Press volup to continue"
On the next page look at attribute "Custom Binary Download".
Hope that helped.
Cheers.

At my phone the count is 6....to many flashes, isn´t it?

you can use jig to reset counter check android dev forum and use CWM or mobile Odin to flash firmware to keep counter 0 and dont use odin from pc

QN: Can I flash a stock GB rom with Odin to reset the binary count?

Anyone?
if The answer is N0 then what are the correct steps?

I am assuming you already have a binary counter > 0. If so, NO, you can't. But you can use a JIG I think to reset it. Also, there's an app available for this. Read the Development forum.

I used the triangle away application. But it shows error, current using stunner 5.0

Re-flash Chainfire's ICS Repack then Install the Triangle away app.

By far the easiest method is to flash the ICS LP1 Repack using Mobile Odin Pro. Then use Triangle Away (do a XDA search) to dispose of the triangle and reset the counter. After that go back to GB.

You can't use TA when on ICS 4.0.4.

So do I still need to use JIG?

If i am not wrong then on GB you got only the Jig to reset the counter. You can flash the lp1 repack of ICS rom and then use the triangle away app to reset the counter. And then can downgrade back to GB or stock.
All useful links in my signature.

Thanx Bhai.
One more thing to ask, How to make any kernel's zimage??
i have LB2 kernel, but i am not able to find LB2 kernel's zimage. I need to install CWM Recovery by using it.

Search in Dr ketan's or chainfire's thread on note roms and cf kernels. U may get the cf kernel there. Right now out so can't search on phone nicely :-(
BOOMED from my BOMBASTIC NOTE

Unzip
You could unzip the CWM file and find the zImage file there.

[Q] How to root N7000XXLA4?

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.

I found a problem before I root my N7000. Using downgrade method will wipe all my user data. Any other method that will not wipe my data?

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?

Yeah you can update to any rom through mobile odin.Just remember to check ever root,inject su and mobile odin to root as you flash the rom.
To unroot Just flash any stock rom through pc odin or mobile odin

Thanks for your help! I am confident to do it now. Actually, I owned i9000 and P990. Both of them were rooted and installed Darky's ROM or CM7. But GS2 and GSN now have the binary counter which is new for me. I have to learn it again.

Rooted and flash back the original rom successfully with half an hour!

can i change kernel when ny note bricked ?

please help..
i think my note is bricked.
its stuck on factoryfs step when i try flash with PC odin.
i want go to services center to claim warranty
but i have one problem.
i am already using custom kernel in my note. so i am afraid the warranty will void.
its there any idea to change my kernel to original kernel ?
oh ya im on ICS 4.0.4 Singapore..
thanx

Looky signature for 'toolbox' you will find stock kernel thread link from it.
Flash using pc odin (pda),most probably you will able to.flash it, except you have big loss on partition.

We already have 4-5 threads with same issue....and even if you some how manage to flash a stock kernel it will not remove your root and that will void your warranty. Retry on on some different PC, some users managed to do it like this.
Edit- M I right dr.ketan?

It requires precious log to know exact issue he faces. If it is not brick but due to connectivity issue then knly it can b managed with other pc. Flashing stock kernel will unroot device, but sure leftover will remain.but if it is real brick and they (service centre)won't able to boot it and never know abt leftover.
They will have two option to check
1.recovery - if it is custom, they will find u r rooted, thats y i advised him to flash stock kernel
2.download mode : you shud not have raised flash counter.
So,
My recommendation
Confirm it is real brick, if yes
Flash stock kernel
Reset counter if.raised
Reclaim warranty

i didnt know it is was bricked or just connectivity issue ,
all i knew is my note stuck while flashing.. but it can be enter download mode.
ive tried all usb port in my laptop and try reinstalling usb driver, but it didnt help.
oh ya it didnt raise my binary counter , so its still 0
i will follow dr.ketan suggest to flash stock kernel.
but i want to ask one more question.
how about this method ?
how to revive your bricked note
can i use it ? to revive my note
if i can , which one is better ? flash stock kernel or follow that method ?
thanx

Easy and safe method is using TriangleAway app to remove yellow triangle if you are on Rooted ICS
or else you will have to use USB JIG.

i use this kernel
Code:
http://d-h.st/J2t DXLR2
and it give me raise binary counter,
and then
someone told me to flash with ICSKrnelTest.tar in this post
i ve done that but it not reset the binary counter.

my problem was solve..
flashing with this kernel
didnt make resetting binary counter, but help me to Boot to ROM.
so i just installing triangle away and resetting binary.
after that everything looks normal for me
my galaxy note its on.
btw after flashing with that kernel,
i can't connect to wifi
so i use speedmod kernel and everything its allright,
it is oke to use speedmod kernel in ICS 4.0,4 ?
btw thanx for all of yours help and replies

I dont know which kernel was it, b'coz link is broken. But as you said wifi was not working, it means that shud be custom. Stock kernel dont have wifi issue.
Anyway Triangle away will reset your counter.
Yes you can use speedmod, then reset counter.
