Hello,
My Galaxy Note is unrooted and running a stock GB ROM:
Android version: 2.3.5
Baseband version: N7000UBKK1
Kernel version: 2.6.35.7-N7000UBKK3-CL702304
Build number: GINGERBREAD.UBKK3
I'd like to root my device and also flash an ICS ROM (ICS StuNNeR). I've been reading a lot of tutorials here, but I'm still confused about which method is best for me.
My current ROM doesn't seem to be "directly rootable". Do I really have to downgrade it first? Is it necessary to root the GB ROM before flashing the ICS ROM?
Should I follow the guide Another Way to Successfully Flash AOSP/AOKP/CM9 ICS Roms from Gingerbread? But do I have to root the GB ROM first?
I'd also like to backup my current ROM, but I haven't found instructions on how to do that.
Thanks a lot,
Tiago

This might help. If not look at the stickies in the android development section and go through all relevant posts there. For flashing a rom from gb to ics I suggest u wait until OTA update and then flash roms cause many notes have been bricked due to the leaked kernel. If u want to still flash an ics rom then follow the guide provided by the dev.and yes u have to root ur phone before u flash a rom.

Hi there.
I'm running deodexed Froyo 2.2.1 right now from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=948790
I want to flash Gingerbread but I'm lost with bootloaders. The roms in there
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=948790 does not have bootloader also Im not sure if I need one.
Could someone guide about the bootloader thing and how to flash deodexed gingerbread via odin.
Thanks!
C check out ezbase 3 rom, straight flash with odin 3 as per instructions, will give you rooted rom and im pretty sure its deodexed find it in development

Thanks!
But just to be clear: EZBase is a stock deodexed rom with bootloader in it?
Because I want to install the stock gingerbread (XXJVK probably) but I'm confused about the whole bootloader stuff.
Thanks again!
Read the ezbase thread, u can go for froyo or gb, just follow instructions, its all there with link to instructions with screen shots

Hi,
Recently i have just switched from IPhone to Galaxy Note, while really need some advise on get it "rooted" and flash with ICS (Since many people feed back its eventually better" perhaps someone can guide me a proper way of backing up my system as well as flashing it?
my phone details as below:-
Model - GT-N7000
Android Version - 2.3.6
Baseband - N7000DXKL2
Kernel Version - 2.6.35.7-N7000XXLA1(I suppose this should be KJ1? but on my phone it shows this...)
Build number - GINGERBREAD.XXLA1
in such situation should i proceed to get it flash with the KJ1 method?
yes your ROM is newer, so you have to downgrade it.
You can downgrade to KJ1 pre rooted ROM, download link you may find on 4th line on my signature.

So in summary all i need to do is to downgrade my ROM to KJ1, follow the guide to root it, then only flash it to ICS?
by doing all these will it void the warranty of the phone?
Forget about ICS for right now..I would consider it advanced to install and for beginners I would stick to rooted GB builds until you got more familar with the phone and flashing etc..

Yes, Get Root + CWM
To install ICS, follow installation guide available with ICS ROM you want to install
Somwat agree with MrDSL, at least you shud read a lot before installing ICS.
Warranty can be regain by Reflashing Stock ROM.
Yup, indeed doing more research before i proceed to flash my SGN, sincerely thank you for all the advise and guidance though.
Rooting is pretty clear to you now I think.
As for flashing ICS ROMs, I don't actually agree with anyone above. I have earlier flashed TeamRocket's ICS ROM, Imilka's AOSP ROM and ICS Stunner on my note. ICS Stunner is actually one of the best you could have for ICS. (Almost everything works, or rather everything actually works ). Now I am using Imilka's CM9 port from SGS2, very very smooth, stable and most of the things work. Download and install instructions are pretty clear in their respective threads. I would actually suggest you to go ahead with ICS ROMs (ICS Stunner or CM9 especially)!
PM me if you need any help!

Hi guys, i am new to all this!
I really want to root my phone but i dont understand any of the step by step guides i have found.
Can anyone simplify things for me and tell wat i have to download to be able to do it?
Easiest is to root a JW4 ROM. Flash it to your phone using Odin and flash the CF-Root 4.4.
Search for the files above.

Hi. Sorry to say this, but I am really stupid and decided to flash a custom rom, although I am a newbie when it comes to such things. So I flashed:
Kernel: TheMIDTeam1.5_Kernel_LQ2.tar
ROM: KingDroid_ICS_NoteMania_v7.0.zip
It was good, but I decided to test another ROM, so I flashed this:
Kernel: AbyssNotekernel42CWTouchOriginalLogo.zip
ROM: TMT_MIUI_2.0_2.8.2_Aroma.zip
This is where I am now:
Kernel version: 3.0.15-N7000ZSLPF-CL558430
Asnet Build: MIUI-2.8.2-IML74K
I felt like I wanted to go back to STOCK ROM (ICS 4.0.4, that I had before I even flashed my first rom and kernel)
I downloaded STOCK ROM from samfirmware.com (Nordic) and wanted to flashed it via ODIN. I did follow the instructions and then when I starts, it works in the beginning but gets stuck at cache.img? What have I done wrong?

Thanks for the help guys. I will get back if there is a problem. As for the method 3, it requires Mobile ODIN PRO since you have to flash the rooted GB ROM and I dont have mobile Odin pro (only mobile odin lite)
Hi is it possible for me to update my Samsung galaxy tab
Model: GT-P1000
Firmware version: 2.2
Baseband version: P1000JXJM2
Kernel version:
2.6.32.9
[email protected] #1
Build number
FROYO.JPJM5
You will install Kies on your PC before, And put your Tab connect to USB. Well you can update via Kies.
sorry for my bad English
Good luck
hi there are no updates available thinking of rooting it but have no idea how and if i can do it with my tab i want version 2.3 or later
makes restock rom, recommend the "GB_Stock_Safe_v5" from overcome
and download your latest version (same region) from sammobile.com then flash it
Maybe you must to un-root your tab but I'm not sure that make you can update.
Warning all your data will be lost.

Yes there are plenty of ways to update your device.
You can simply install Samsung Kies, connect your tab and update to official gingerbread (2.3) or you can install a custom GB rom (Overcome Rom).
You can also choose to install ICS (4.0) or JB (4.1), various flavors like AOKP, CM9, CM10 etc.
To get started on custom GB or any other custom rom you should first root/stock your device using the Overcome guide/rom. The original thread is Here but the links are down so you should get the guide and safe-restock/rom files from the mirrors here.
Everything you need to do is included in the guide. Once you have installed Overcome rom you will be rooted and have a custom rom/kernel, from there if y0ou want to go up to ICS etc you simply put the rom on your sdcard, boot into recovery and flash the desired rom.
For me better upgrde to overcome rom..its more stable and have native 3g call..
