[Q] im in need of Rooting help - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Greetings everyone,
im new to this and im very very confused, i bought a galaxy note and i was able to flash the latest firmware ICS 4.0.3 (Open German), but what i cant do is rooting the phone, and what is the exact point im failing at is creating an SDcard folder on the internal memory, i dont have an external SDcard, and as i have read on other threads :
Step 1: Download the following files from the official thread [XDA-Developers]:
CWM.zip
SU-Busybox-Installer.zip
Place all these files directly under /sdcard on your device’s internal memory.
Step 2: Shutdown your device. Once it is completely shut down, press and hold Volume Down + Power + Home buttons until you see a screen asking you to press to press Volume Up. Press said button to complete booting into Recovery Mode.
Step 3: Select apply update from external storage and then navigate to where you placed CWM.zip. Select it.
Step 4: Your device should now boot into ClockworkMod (CWM) Recovery.
Step 5: From CWM, choose install zip from sdcard > choose zip from sdcard > SU-Busybox-Installer.zip
Step 6: From main menu of CWM, choose reboot system now.
If you followed the steps correctly, your Samsung Galaxy Note International GT-N7000 will now be rooted on Android 4.0.3 ICS.
all the steps seems to be easy, and i failed on creating sdcard folder on internal memory, i would appreciate your help.
thanks alot

You need to put the zip file in the root directory of the internal memory (internal SD card). Then in CWM you need to choose install zip from internal SD card not from SD card.

finding difficulties doing that

sorry for asking alot, but actually i dont know that much about androids, what i did step by step is,
1- downloading the files
2- open phone storage via my computer
3- pasted the files once the screen opened and created a file named sdcard and pasted the files there too just in case.
4- turned off the phone, pressed vol up+homescreen+power
5- apply updates from sdcard
and after that i wait a couple of seconds and a message pops in red says
E:/failed to mount /sdcard(no such file or directory)
i was never able to reach CWM.
if you could patiently and gladly post me a step by step what should i do, i will be very appreciated and thanks in advance.
thanks for helping

i would love to have an expert to guide me thru or give me step by step guide...
still needs help !!

I guess you are choosing the wrong option from the CWM
On the first screen of CWM recovery
1. choose "install zip from sd card"
2. On the next screen click "install zip from internal sdcard"
3. then goto the folder you created and then choose the SU zip file
Hope it helps...

my friend, im not even able to reach CWM, my phone is not rooted, im trying to root my phone, i cant reach CWM. i just need a way to Root my galaxy note ice 4.0.3

Ok try this turn phone off, turn on and quickly
press volume up, home and power at same time untill phone boots again, this is tricky may need couple tries. This will launch recovery. From there choose install update from... By navigating with volume buttons you can choose install from. This opens the sd card, choose the folder where you downloaded cwm.zip to, navigate with volume button to it. Click power button to select., navigate to yes and watch it install, after install you can use touch screen to options described in your first post. This will install superuser. After that is done reboot. In applications there is superuser. You are rooted now.

I did everything you said exactly but I got only super now but no CWM! And when I access root by some application it says you need root.
Here is what I did
1. Boot into recovery
2. Select install from sd
3. Selected external sd
4. Choose CWM.zip
5. Confirm install
6. Now recovery booted onto CWM
7. Select sd card (internal)
8. Choose su busy box from root folder
9. Confirm installation
10. Reboot device.
Now I can only see busybox not CWM!!!!!

Ok progress, but not full root. Download speedmod kernel on your phone, the cwm flashable zip from developer thread k3.
Speedmod is prerooted, and should together with already installed superuser provide full root. ICS one is k3 thread. The k3-3 one is stable and relatively safe. Best batterylife too.
Now restart procedure with cwm.zip instal. In cwm install the speedmod kernel zip and reboot. Now you should have full root. Test it by rebooting, opening superuser and in preferences select update binaries. Allow superuser acces for superuser. Select update. It should pass everything.
Cwm recovery is now also installed, but not as a link within applications. You can access it by rebooting and volume up, homekey and power combo. Speedmod has the wipe functionality that can break your phone disabled, same goes for factory reset. If you want that in future install throught pc odin, see stickies development thread drKetans thread, and do it safely from gb, and not ICS.

You can download speedmod from the download lin in first post of this thread. Not the sourcecode, but from the download link.

No, do the cwm.zip install, easiest. Odin is safest always, but because of triangle and binary counter I recommend cwm.
Just dont do factory reset/wipe from cwm. Thats what triggers the hardbrick in 99% of cases. Only small number of cases by installing through cwm.

OK now I got CWM and superSU and speedmod kernel. But still I don't have root access. M trying to remove Google ads thru lucky patcher but it gives error that I don't have root access .. Is there separate version for ICS? I got moved all the alps from gb thru TB.

Did you test by updating binaries throught superuser preferences?
Actually, if you followed procedure you should have superuser and not supersu .
Get it here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1647148
Best to reinstall throught cwm the superuser zip. And test root again
Edit, unstall supersu first. Then after zip install test update binaries

[TUTORIAL] Root access for ICS on I9100G

This is a compilation thread of the various root methods for the new ICS firmware on the I9100G. Special thanks to Codeworkx for his LP7 kernel, happysmith on the Chinese Gfan forum, and various other users in the Facebook I9100G group.
Method 1:
Advantages: Easy to do, permanent ClockworkMod recovery achieved.
Disadvantages: Increases flash counter. (No yellow triangle though.) Not 100% compatible with Stock 4.0.4 ROMs! You'll be able to root and use the system, but Bluetooth will stop functioning!
Prerequisites: Codeworkx's LP7 or ICS Kernel: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1631934
root.zip here: http://www.mediafire.com/?w3zzodjc1b8kqdh
Step 1: Download Codeworkx's LP7/ICS kernel and flash it using Odin.
Step 2: Put root.zip on either the internal or external SD card.
Step 3: Boot into ClockworkMod recovery by pressing Home Button + Volume Up key + Power key while your phone is turned off.
Step 4: Select install zip from sdcard.
Step 5: Select choose zip from sdcard/internal sdcard, depending on where you put root.zip.
Step 6: Flash root.zip and reboot.
Congratulations, you should now have root access.
Method 2:
Advantages: No flash counter increase or yellow triangle.
Disadvantages: Temporary ClockworkMod Recovery. You must have an External SD Card!
Prerequisites: The CWM.zip and root.zip from this file: http://d-h.st/R8y
Step 1: Put the CWM.zip onto your EXTERNAL SD Card and root.zip on external OR internal SD.
Step 2: Get into the stock recovery mode by pressing Home Button + Volume Up key + Power key while your phone is turned off.
Step 3: From there, select apply update from external storage, and select the CWM.zip.
Step 4: You should now be taken to CWM Touch Recovery, where you should select install zip from sdcard.
Step 5: Select choose zip from sdcard/internal sdcard, depending on where you put root.zip. (Your internal and external sdcard might have their locations switched with the other, so double-check!)
Step 6: Flash root.zip and reboot.
Congratulations, you should now have root access without binary increase or a yellow triangle.
ADVANCED Method 2:
Advantages: No flash counter increase or yellow triangle. Permanent ClockworkMod Recovery.
Disadvantages: More difficult than the other methods, but this will give you the best result once achieved. Not 100% compatible with Stock 4.0.4 ROMs! You'll be able to root and use the system, but Bluetooth will stop Functioning!
Prerequisites: Properly executed all steps from Method 2 and obtained root.
Codeworkx's LP7 or ICS Kernel: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1631934
Step 1: Download and install ktool from Google play.
Step 2: Extract the contents of Codeworkx's LP7 or ICS kernel.
Step 3: Find the file "zimage" and copy it onto your phone's storage.
Step 4: Use ktool to flash the "zimage" file. Reboot.
Congratulations, you now have achieved root with permanent ClockworkMod Recovery AND no flash counter increase.
I hope this helps all those who wants Root access on their newly-upgraded ICS system. Enjoy!

Are you using the first or the second method?
Method 2 worked for me!
Thanks a lot I'll try it right now ^^
A question, LP7 work or do I must take the experimental ICS version ?
Thanks
the second method...but still does'nt work...
---------- Post added at 02:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:11 PM ----------
the first method will surely put the triangle counter?

Which part are you stuck at? The stock recovery or CWM? You MUST use an external SD card to use the Stock recovery.
Unsure about Triangle, but definitely flash counter I think.
Would you please tell me which link to use for the custom kernel ?
LP7 - 5.5.0.4: Download (hacked LP7 kernel)
ICS - 5.5.0.4: Download (EXPERIMENTAL, built from sources, breaks wifi)
ICS breaks wifi does LP7 works on ICS ?
I'm stuck before applying the CWM. When I enter the recovery and select the option to apply, it does not recognize my sdcard ...
thanks, tested working.
if flash counter increase, can i reset it back using usb jig?

The ICS Kernel is built from Galaxy Tab 2 sources, which is not fully compatible. Use the LP7 one.

No one knows if the USB Jig works with the new bootloader. Most likely not.

That's incredibly strange. Only thing I can suggest is try another SD Card, or format it in FAT32 and try again.
It will work on European version or only Chinese version?

It means that you will be back to the stock recovery the next time you try to get in, and you'll have to flash CWM.zip everytime you need CWM. But you will have root.
I flashed LP7 - 5.5.0.4 I can access to clockworkmod but when I try to install zip file it said unable to mount /sdcard but strangely I didn't have the used yellow triangle.
EDIT : I am sorry I was stupid, I choose the wrong card, I had to choose external, but even after flashing LP7 I hadn't the yellow triangle, now I have root access, I can access to CMW 5.0.4 when rebooting my phone holding home+volume up+power. So I think that it worked
Thank you very much
Thanks JiangYi
Just got my root access for the first ICS for GTi9100G = XXLPQ using method 2.
Copy two files to external card.
Flash CWM.zip
Flash root.zip
I did it with the first method, but I didn't got the yellow triangle now I'm wondring if installing CMW from google play would permit to have choice when rebooting phone to go to recovery, reboot or go to download.

[Q] Rooting Galaxy Note

Hi,
I've Just bought a Galaxy Note. When I first ran it, it was on Gingerbread, then an update was found, I installed it.
It's of course Android 4.0.3, the version of the kernel is XXLPY.
I would like to root it. My question is, what is the simplest way to do it without taking any risk? (I'm a 4 years iPhone user, it's my first Android phone)
Do I need a micro SD card?
I read that I'll have to change the kernel after the rooting process so that the "deep sleep" problem will not drain the battery fast. Is that right? How to do it?
If someone has a link to a current method (I found some old methods, before the XXLPY brick risque was found) to do it step by step, it would be nice.
hope it's not a too noob quesitnon :/

If its your first android phone and you only just bought it i suggest you get to no the phone 1st before you attempt anything.
Welcome to Android.
Thank you very much guys. So it needs indeed an external micro sd card.
So I've just bought a sdcard 32gb, originaly formated to fat32.
So this is what I'm gonna do :
- Download the Files first and put in your SDCARD [CWM zip][ SU-Busybox-Installer.zip][ SU-Uninstaller-signed.zip]
- Reboot to recovery.
- Choose apply update from external storage.
- (Touch the screen as if you are using the phone to choose the options)
- Choose CWM.zip and wait until CWM recovery appear.
- Choose install zip from sdcard or external SD
- Choose and Install SU-Busybox-Installer.zip
- Reboot
You are done and now your device is Rooted

Do I need to check the "Allow external sources" option like I saw in some other posts? Is that otpion available in ICS? Can I root when with the USB cable pluged in?
I just want to be sure to not mess up anything
Ok so I did this :
- Download the Files first and put in your SDCARD [CWM zip][ SU-Busybox-Installer.zip][ SU-Uninstaller-signed.zip]
- Reboot to recovery.
When I rebooted, I had a warning about custom OS's, I pressed Volume up to continue, a screen with "Downloading, Do not turn off target" appeared
So how to proceed to this :
3. Choose apply update from external storage.
4. (Touch the screen as if you are using the phone to choose the options)

Rooting not recommended if you don't know how to go to recovery mode. If you got root access I doubt you will seriously messed up or maybe brick your device.
Anyways if you want to root than
Turn off the phone press VOLUME UP + home + power to go to recovery mode....
No need to go to download mode (vol down + home + power)
Aryo.b listen to Gex....
I think rooting is not needed now for you.
Learn more about the Android world.
I would like to, but the battery is going down really fast, and I read that it's an ICS problem that needs to be fixed by rooting the phone and change kernel.
The battery dropped down by 25% in about 2 hours, with doing anything exceptional...
- Choose CWM.zip and wait until CWM recovery appear.
- Choose install zip from sdcard or external SD

here, nothing happend, the highlight went back to the first line "Reboot"
I tried twice but same thing. When I finaly decided to reboot, this message appeared in the bottom of the screen :
PHP:
ClockworkMod Recovery v5.8.1.5
E:Can't cache recovery log
E:Can't cache recovery log
E:Can't cache recovery last_log
E:Can't cache recovery last_log
I had to press long the power button to reboot the phone. Maybe it's a matter of the version of CWM?
Battery needs couple of charge and discharge cycle for best performance...
Rooting in ICS is very simple process... Exactly what is the situation???

Agree, but 30% in 2 hours, I don't think it's a matter of best performance of the battery.
So the thing is that When I select "install zip from sdcard" in CWM nothing happen.
@chintamanijaipuri
Which Kernel are you using for root on ICS? I'm after a rooted kernel as close to stock as possible, but without the eMMC issue.
Ok, so now it's rooted.
How can I change the kernel and put the franco one?
Thank your guys.

Hey dude,
You just flash thru CMW recovery, download the the kernel zip of FranciscoFranco -http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1491428) and save it on your external sd, just like the same process of how you root your Note.. Look for the zip file from "install from external Storage" and scroll to the name of Franco's latest kernel zip and apply it.
Cheers!
Root Stock ICS ROM
This method works on the released ICS rom from Germany and I would expect it to work for the rest of the ICS roms due for release..
This method does not increase the binary counter or causes a yellow exclamation mark

this method works best for my galaxy note after stock ICS update
@Letters to cleo just flashed. It was simple and worked fine. Thanks.
In fact everything was easy, but you have no clue how things works (my first android phone) everything seems complicated but it's not.
Hop that this flash will slow a little bit the battery drain.

About what are you talking about, Superuser.apk, Superuser.zip or su? Simple answer yes and no, probably more helpfull answer, go to googles play store or the webside (think androidsu.com) and find more out.

Yes Of course, you can use it...
You need a rooted phone to use ROM manager so you need to inject CWM first before you flash a v20 otherwise you can't root it, or you flash a v10 and root it with GingerBreak but for that you don't need SU or CWM. I think all that is said here a hundred times.

problems with rooting my phone

i used this guide:
http://yagyagaire.blogspot.co.il/2011/08/how-to-root-samsung-galaxy-popmini.html#.UVQo5Bcqzj4
but i read in the comments that i can use the zip only with stock recovery.. and i have CWM recovery.
i tried to get back to stock recovery, but failed.
anyway to root with CWM?
thanks
Here's another way to root your phone. First,download the latest version of superuser in a flashable zip(google 'superuser downloads'). Then place the zip in your phone's sd card. Go to cwm recovery and select 'install zip from sd card'. Before this you might want to back up your rom,just in case something goes wrong. After that go to choose zip from external sd card and find the zip. Install the zip and when installation finished reboot. Your phone will be rooted after doing this.
try to go to galaxy mini themes n apps thread,and search best roots apps,thread by the alchemist...

Try flashing a custom rom in your phone They usually comes up with a super user access (it means that you are rooted )
[ROM][CM7.2][ODEXED][30-04-2013] New Experience v9.8.0 - xda-developers
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1648213
