Hi folks,
I have gone from GB (official) > LPY > LPF inc. the new bootloader.
Question is, is there any way of getting back to the original XEU bootloader to make the phone completely like out of the box?
Being an ICS bootloader, will this effect GB operation?
Thanks
I just flash germany LC1 using PC odin which is a 1 file ROM, and seems the bootloader is reverted to old one.
Ahh excellent. I have the 1 file XEU GB rom but there is nothing inside it for Bootloader.

ICS bootloader won't affect you in any way if you just flash any GB Rom, with or without its own bootloader.
But what about warranty purposes?

I don't think they can even see what bootloader you've got. Kernel is another
matter, though.

As far as I read about the brick bootloader on the forum if I flashed the official LPY from GB using Mobile Odin means I am still on GB BOOTLOADER even though I flashed the ICS CF-Kernel version?

The bootloader is a defferent thing from the Rom.
If you want the new LPF Bootlader download it ftom here!
Hello, I've looked around to find this answer but couldn't find an exact match. I want to downgrade from rocketrom ics to stock GB 2.3.6 using odin, my current. Kernel is franco. My device is checked and known to have dangerous eMMC bug. Is it completely safe to flash stock gb from rocketrom?

Hi guys,
Im on Stock ICS XXLQ2 can i flash stock GB XXLC1 using Odin PC after that i can do Full Wipe/Factory reset etc..
Thanks
I got the idea i need to flash the Open europe version of stock GB via odin. But the one I found is Wipe version, will this trigger the eMMC bug? (my device is affected)

Afaik the full wipe part will be performed under the gb kernel as that is flashed before the from, so you'll be fine.

Yes, use PC Odin to flash, then perform a factory reset when you're on gb.

Sorry but i need to clarify this
So, is it ok to flash any rom with safe kernel? For instance CM9 RC1? I'm on official ics 4.0.3 from samsung, and like most of the note users i have the f*ing bug

Cm kernels will not work with tw based roms, only with aokp/aosp, and vice versa. You'll have to read up on the kernel pages themselves on which rom types they support.
So flash to gb first, perform full wipe, root and install cwm, then you can install custom kernels and roms from there. Never install from ics kernel, only downgrade to gb to be safe.

Downgrading to gb means; directly flashing a gb rom right? Yes, i'm new to all this.

hi everybody
i am sorry for bothering you i just want to ask when using pc odin to downgrade from ics to gb stock rom is enough one pda file or i had to use the other phone and csc file with pit file and repartition, that is my first question.
the second one after flashing the stock gb can stay on stock kernel or it is unsafe.
thank you in advance

Most of the rom files split down into three files but If you place the original tar file into pda, odin sorts out the partitions correctly for you.
All stock gb kernels are safe from emmc superbrick bug, safe to perform wipes.

ok perfect i am flashing now Gb, then rooting, then ics and will try the unlock you linked me to
If you have everything else is fine then u can just flash cuatom kernwl with pc odin to root, no need to go to gb, yes u will need to reset counter.

is there a direct root for the latest arabic rom 4.0.4 which is lr8
cant manage to find it
i installed gb then lr8 using mobile odin with everroot on and the root was gone no idea why
Flash custom kernel e.g. notecore with pc odin. It will root ur device.
U need to reset counter.

Hi Everyone!
I'm kinda having problems going back to stock ics from stable cm9.
I wanted to get back to stock just so I can try speedmod k3-13.
Whenever I flash stock ics through pc odin, I get stocked in the blinking Samsung logo, and my note never boots up. I am now back to cm9 and everything is ok.
Any thoughts on what steps I should undertake to get it working!?
Thanks in advance!
Sent from my GT-N7000
Why you are using kernel to get back to gb???no need to do.if you are doing this for going back to custom gb rom then i would suggest you to first flash a pre-rooted gb rom from dr.ketan's guide.try to flash it through pc-odin.

You need root to install speed mod kernel so quickest way is to flash a pre rooted rom.

I find here this emmc bug is killing everyone.
I bought this GN just 2 weeks ago.at begining it came with GB installed.i recieved ota update in the same day for ics.so i did it.
After updating i did factory reset the device without knowing that there is a danger to damage the device.
Then i tried to root and installed some other kernels with cwr, which was another mistake.and finally flash it again with stock rom.but this time no wipe!
So the phone is not in clean state.
I read that one way to avoide damaging the device is to flash it with GB rom and then wipe then flash it again with ics one.all by pc odin.
But my problem is i cant find the original GB Rom to do it.
Is it important to flash with original or i can do it with any stock GB rom?
And is there any kernel based on stock kernel which has no mod no tweak and stuff but safe to wipe?i mean with mmc earase disabled.

Here's the link where you can find stock GB (Courtesy of doc Ketan) ->http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424997 Find your Stock ROM (based on your region)
Let me clear out some wrong notions spreading before.... you can safely WIPE your phone even on ICS as long as you have installed a safe kernel on to your device. You don't necessarily need to go to STOCK GB and do the wipe from there. It is already safe WIPING your phone on ICS just as long as you have the safe kernel installed on your phone.
Safe kernels to mentioned are SpeedMod, HardCore (that is if your in ICS), AbyssNote (if your still on stock GB)
Again no stock GB rom from my country.funny i went to samfirmware before and nothing there also.but for other region there are many!
Current ROM is N7000XXLRI
Which is the only FW from my region.

If you can't find any stock GB from your region then don't fret , Download a direct rootable ROM closest to your region and flash it from there. Remember, your goal is not to say long in GB right? so after you've downloaded a direct rootable GB ROM.. Download back your stock ICS ROM thru PC Odin, ROOT it thru Doc Ketan's thread still and then do a FACTORY wipe after.
P.S. Don't worry about the triangle mark on your boot up screen. You can safely remove that thru ChainFire's TriangleAway app (when your rooted already)
I'll try this.
After all, what do you suggest as a daily driver rom or kernel on GN which is safe and stable to flashing wiping and stuff?
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda app-developers app
I'm using stock LRQ (for now), but I've cooked it and made some big modifications to the ROM itself and now everything's working and my phone ''flies'
For the kernel.. SpeedMod is my truly one option... Stability and battery performance... It never fails on me still.... Any cooked ROMs I'm making or flashing one from our good ROM cookers here on this forum.. This kernel is still my best bet... but hey... this just me okay... if you want other safe kernels out there, feel free to try them out... it's your choice anyway...

Hydracore can be used on all ICS and JB roms (TW, CM and AOKP) another is Speedmod for TW ICS roms, these two are safe and can be used as per your rom. Most of the roms are stable now, it totally depends on you, which one suits your requirements
Edit- letters_to_cleo your invisible status always confuse me, lol.
