-DO NOT FLASH or WIPE FROM I9220 LEAK REPACK ROMS and KERNELS
-DO NOT FLASH or WIPE FROM LPY BASED ICS ROMS and KERNELS (including this one!)
-For any wipe or flash purpose use Abyss Kernel v 4.2 with redpill recovery!
For anyone wants to flash the kernel via cwm here is the cwm formatted zip of Cfroot 5.3 LPY kernel. Thanks to Chainfire for the rooting the kernel.
So having chainfires cf-root thread isn't enough then...

this is not the odin version. there are situations that this version is necessary.
Hi,

So ... MUCHAS GRACIAS ;-)

This is flashable through cwm recovery. If you want to use it in mobile odin, extract the "zImage" file from the zip, put it to your sdcard and show it in mobile odin.

Definitely a version of the kernel that we need to have in our disposal. CWM is a very practical solution In many cases.

NO, this is NOT the same kernel. Please do not spread wrong information. This is LPY Kernel that came with official ICS, this is no the leaked kernel.

well forgive me i forgot to add a question mark at the end of the sentence but eventually my sentence started with "is" so apparently it is most likely a question. i was just asking if this is the same kernel that has a bug?
this is what's written:
Kernels that are likely affected - it's too early to be sure:
XXLPY official ICS release for the Samsung Galaxy Note (thanks to Chasmodo for sacrificing his device to find this out) - One hardbrick has been reported in the past few days, others say it's safe, use at your own risk! In my opinion one hardbrick is enough not to trust it.
@weng_cas
yeah this looks to be the same LPY kernel chainfire released shortly after the official german ics rom was released

Hello lovely XDA users. Just wanted to ask a few questions about the Note. Im used to Nexus devices and the unlocking and rooting process is usually straight forward, reading up on the Note I got a bit confused lol. So how do you root it? I have read about the ICS leaks bricking phones so I will stick to GB for now, can anyone recommend a good GB ROM? Would like stock Android if possible. One more question, apart from rooting how do you get CWM Recovery on it? Thanks for your help people and I'm really looking forward to getting the Note.
There's a thread in the dev section with pre-rooted firmwares. You can flash any of these with PC Odin and you're rooted. I suggest you flash the European Open or UK version of XXLC1.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424997
If you want to get CWM Recovery as well you need to flash the CF-Kernel for the version of the rom you flashed. So if you flashed XXLC1 you need the CF-Kernel for version LC1.
Scroll to the bottom of this post and download the file for the correct version: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=18978158&postcount=1
Extract that file, double click the alread-rooted.bat file and it will push all the necessary files to the Note. Once it's done your phone will reboot and you can use CWM Recovery (hold power+home+volume up untill Samsung logo pops up) to flash any rom you like.

Explained like a pro, Thank you very much. Any GB ROM you would recommend? Preferably with Stock Android although I'm guessing you can't use the S Pen apps? Might stick to Stock Touchwiz ROM although I hate it. Any kernel to recommend with a Stock ROM? Thanks for your help.
All the custom GB roms fully support the s-pen because they're all based on official Samsung firmwares, I'm not aware of any custom rom with stock Android UI at the moment. You can always use a custom launcher to at least get rid of TouchWiz. I'm using CheckRomHD V6 and installed NemusLauncher at the moment and I like it a lot. RocketRom V23 is a very nice rom as well though it's a bit of a hassle to flash as you first need to flash V22, do a wipe and then flash V23.
You can even combine custom roms and custom kernels. If you want to be able to overclock as well you can flash for example CheckRom and then flash the AbyssNote 4.2 or FM Kernel 2.0 in CWM Recovery. Or if you go for speed and good battery life you can flash SpeedMod Kernel 2-11.
Basically it's all up to you. Read the threads about the custom roms, choose a few with features you like and just try them for a while. Just keep in mind that there is a slight chance you end up in a boot loop (usually solved by doing a data/cache/Dalvik wipe in recovery) or soft-bricking and you have to start all over by flashing a pre-rooted kernel and CF-Root again, but this applies to any custom rom on any phone.
You said them firmwares are pre-rooted but on the thread it say's they are not directly rootable. ???

Does this mean that you want all the stuff that comes initially with your Note?
If yes, then CM9 probably is not the right thing for you. It is devoid of all the
Samsung crapware, plus you don't get native S-Pen Samsung support. This
means no SMemo and similar stuff; you have to use different apps from the
Market instead.
OTOH, if you want a lean, smooth and fast Rom, and are not afraid to do some
tinkering, then CM9 would be ideal for you.

1. CM9 is here.
2. No optional kernels for now, because it contains the only safe ICS kernel ATM
3. No OC either, but you won't be needing it - the kernel is very fast as it is. In
fact, I keep mine at 1.2Ghz. It feels just as quick, and it's somewhat easier on
the battery.
Ok, I flashed a stock GB ROM through odin and I have run the bat file and installed the CF kernel and CWM. How do I flash CM9 and where do I find Reloaded CM9? Thanks you lovely people

In my restless and dull life I've decided to play with fire and try to flash official ICS onto my Galaxy Note. Now I'm more or less a complete noob at this. I've been lurking and reading threads here for months. But I haven't tried anything out yet.
I found Dr.Ketans guide for mobile odin.
( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=25916135&postcount=1840 ) . But I am not rooted, and I don't have any interest in root at the moment. My main question is this:
I downloaded the rom in that post. and extracted it to a tar.md5 file. Does this include a kernel? Or do I have to download the CF kernel or the stock kernel from some other source and flash that as well?
Yes, I already know about the hard brick issue. If that happens, at least you will have another proof that the bug exists

Yeah the tar.md5 file includes the kernel. CF kernel is for getting root and CWM recovery.
Take the plunge mate. But i would rather suggest you to go for CM9 as thats the best and safest ICS experience. Because Samsuck has done nothing wonderous in the official ICS!! Rest your choice mate!!
P.S - since you are not rooted so you cant use mobile odin and hence you are left with PC odin.
Cheers!

Thanks alot for the swift reply! I'll certainly check into CM9 before flashing. Just to make it 100% certain though. I place the tar.md5 file in pda while using Pc Odin and keep kernel and csc empty and flash counter won't be increased?
Sorry for nagging, I just really wanna get it right!

First flash valúe pack and then root it using cfroot.
After that install any ics rom you like through recovery mode.

- CM7 or straight CM9 will be enough too imho!
I prefer going to CM9 through CM7. Giving me less problems.
So CF ROOT - just pick a CM7 nightly here http ://get.cm/?device=galaxysmtd - a CM9/ICS ROM of choice and let's go!

you have to flash it twice, to get in new recovery, i mean the update.zip from rom manager...
after then flash CM9 twice, because on the first time it bootloops- dont panic! just do a three combo (to get to recovery and then flash cm9 and then any ICS Rom of your choise)
did it work?

For some reasons the CM9 was giving errors
(THIS APPLICATION HAS STOPPED WORKING)
so I flashed another rom [ICS ROM]Tiramisu+ I.C.E.A.G.E. V.1.9.6 I'M DIFFERENT!
and its working great.
I was thinking if there is any way by which we could keep multiple roms on phone. SO that we could choose at the boot which one to logon.
I wish if that was possible.

i am quite confsed..
i am a developer from htc wildfire s forum..
i have my brother owning galaxy note..
i flashed the CM10 (unofficial ) on my device he was quite impressed with the JB in such a low end phone.. (htc wildfire s is armv 6 with only 600 mhz with no support for hd gaming.. not even temple run works on it )
so he said me to root his device.. n flash the CM10 rom in it..
so as the guide said i rooted the phone..
(i also installed mobile odin n triangle away from market )
then i googled n realised there is something called binary counter..
n then i also realised that many users are having problem in flashing the CWM. (its kernel dependent i guess,, n i dont know which one to use.. i flashed the hydracore v3 kernel)
so i am likke WTF how to back up the rom?
N now if i want to flash a rom i can do it with odin.. but then how will i revert back to my ICS(the current rom ie the stock rom ,)
can plz someone answer to my questions...
LONG story in Short :
1) how to backup (without increasing the counter)
2)How to restore backup without getting the device bricked.
Root device and flash safe kernel(e.g.Hydracore) with Mobile odin
(2nd link on my signature, use method 1 to root, and use mobile odin to flash safe kernel)
After flashing safe kernel you will have CWM advance recovery, which have backup/restore function

Check rooting guide in Dr.Ketan's sig, you will find all methods to root there.
In method 1 you have to root first and then you can flash custom kernel using mobile odin or pc odin (flashing custom kernel will also install cwmr)
method 2 is flashing custom kernel using pc odin it will root and flash cwm recovery too.

Proly when those thread were created, there was no safe ICS custom kernel, now we have lots of them, You can use Hydracore kernel. So basically as long as you are on any safe kernel, you can restore and backup using cwmr without any danger of brick (provided that you follow correct procedure, lol)

It depends on your requirement, I have tried almost all custom roms available for Note from CheckROm (GB) to PA CM10 and they are are too good. But I always prefer stock rom for long run (again personal choice). As of now using stock LR6 with mods.

Hi everyone
I have just gotten a Samsung galaxy mini. I rooted it and unlocked it okay.
But then I wanted to flash rom and stuff, so I downloaded Odin, and flashed cwm, but... When Odin says pass, it press home + power and the Samsung screen flashed twice and sticks.
But the strangest thing is that it can still boot into android sometimes.
I am on android 2.2.1
iBook anybody can help as it is worrying me a lot
before flashing rom or CWM you will need to upgrade to gingerbread either through odin or Kies
and then flash cwm and after that flash rom with cwm
Thanks for the reply
I can't seem to upgrade via kies, can you provide a link that contains stock Roms for my samsung that can be upgraded via Odin.
Is there any chance of bricking at all?
Do you need any other info?
Thanks

I can't seem to upgrade via kies, can you provide a link that contains stock Roms for my samsung that can be upgraded via Odin.
Is there any chance of bricking at all?
Do you need any other info?
Thanks

Yes, originaly there was Froyo. After flashing to GB, CWM started to work. Before there was only black screen when I pressed HOME+POWER

Can somebody give me an idea on how to root my phone, again, as i would like to put cyanogen mod 7 onto it
thanks
(sorry if im being annoying)
just flash any custom rom now, you don't need root for that and most of custom roms are pre-rooted

Yes, there's maybe 2 ROMs that are not rooted, and they're pretty much outdated
