Please read the instructions in his post
You are on 2.3.6
1. Install Mobile Odin
2. Flash REPACK_LP1 CF
3. Let Rom Boot
4. Go to CWM and flash LiquidSmooth
5. Wipe Data, Wipe Dalvik/Cache

Hi! Yes, now that you say it this way thats what i have done. Because in some tut it was said to do it that way, but i guess they were talking about flashing a GB rom/zimage.

As the install guide says you are meant to flash the repack and then go into recovery and flash the rom. You will likely need to flash a gb kernel via obin and then do as hia install guide says

Ok, thanks for your help so far.
So you mean the PC version of Odin. In which state will i have to bring my phone in order to do so? Where do i get the GB kernel from?
Would be really cool if you could help me further.

Well i am not 100% sure, tbh your safest route would be to re flash a stock gb rom then root it and then try again just to make sure theres no issues, in which case you can download a gb rom from the sticky in the dev section (make sure its a older rootable image!) and flash using odin while your phone is in download mode
please start at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424997 then/or http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1329360
i am hoping of course, that you can still somehow manage to get into download mode.
I has almost the same issue! I am running speedmod kernel and i want to put back the cf-root 5.3 kernel so I flashed the tar which was included the zimage via mobile oding and after reboot the phone gave me a blank screen and no recovery! only downlaod mmod where I can manage to flash speedmod again via pc odin...
why is that happend?
Come on mate have you even read the opening page for the liquid smoother rom on all opening pages it tells you to the letter how to install and yet you don't follow it and wonder y you have a black screen. Have you installed clock work recovery after rooting your note if not search how to install cwm on you tube cursed4eva is a brilliant guy who spells it all out for you- . Please don't use the fact you a noob as an excuse as I'm probably newer than you but can read and follow instructions to the letter as the developer knows best.
W00t! The phone came back to life! Thanks alot.
Now, what i dont understand is that repack_lp1 thing. I downloaded I9220LP1-N7000-ICS-REPACK.tar ... now do i flash this one using mobile odin? Will this install the CFM?
Look for cursed4eva on YouTube watch the video were he shows you how to install clockwork then read the op of liquid smooth rom simple !
Please do some more research before randomly flashing files without having any knowledge as to what they do.
Before you start fiddling with repacks and leaked ICS based roms, read this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1633938
If you still think it's a good idea to flash anything based on the leaked ICS builds, go to the thread of the rom you want to flash and read the instructions. Again, read the instructions and then to be sure read the instructions once more.
Then follow the instructions step by step and you're good to go.
From my rooted GB Chrack's rom I just used PC odin to flash AbyssNotekernel42CWTouchOriginalLogo.tar then I flashed Liquid Smooth rom without problem. However you should follow the instruction from their website.

Now THIS is what he needs to hear.
I recently upgraded my Note to official ICS (OTA) and I'm not liking it AT ALL! Now I really want to get far away from this update as possible and I'd like to switch to a CM9 nightly Rom. I've that now that I have upgraded to the official ICS Rom, I run the risk of super bricking my device. So now I ask you to help me make sure the following is correct so that I may move on from this wretched update:
DO NOT perform wipes if you are on original Samsung ICS
DO NOT perform wipes if you are on a original Samsung kernel??
Flash back to original Gingerbread Rom using odin BEFORE flashing to CM9
Flash to different kernel??
I've flashed millions of Roms but this one is scary and I just want to make sure haven't missed anything... Have I?
Thanks for you help!!
John J
Just flash a stock directly rootable GB rom, root and put CM9 on it. Then do a factory reset and you're good to go. Went that way few times already.

So is the super-brick BUG on the official ICS OTA?? OMG
And yeah go back to gingerbrear via odin, get root then flash any CM9 tru CWM no problems...
I'd like to do something similar to what the OP wants to do however I have rooted and installed CWM on an official/stock ICS rom. So if I wanted to flash back to a stock gingerbread rom would I need to remove CWM and/or un-root?

There is no need to unroot first. You can flash stock GB rom directly via Odin.
I've now flashed to GB but before I move on to a CM9 nightly, do you recommend I flash the CM9 kernel as well? Seems like it is not a prerequisite but I would like to make sure. Thanks.
John J
afaik, when flashing a CM9 Nightly, the eligible kernel is built in, so no need to flash anything but the ROM.
i'm on one of imilkas first CM9 port and it says [email protected] #1 under Kernel version in settings.
Yes. The correct kernel is included in the nightly.
Hi, I have an international varient of the Galaxy Note GT N7000 which using Chainfire's Got Brick App v1.1 says:
eMMC Chip
Type: VYL00M
Revision: 0x19
Verdict: Danger! This eMMC chip is "Known" to have the brick bug!
I once had installed a custom Kingdroid ROM v3 and wiped it but it had resulted in a Hardbrick/Superbrick so i had to take it Samsung Service Center to get it fixed. They have repaired it and given me back the handset with the Stock ICS ROM. Here are the details:
Model Number: GT-N7000
Android Version: 4.0.3
Baseband Version: N7000XXLPT
Kernel Version: 3.0.15-N7000JPLPD-CL643396
[email protected]#3
SMP PREEMPT Thu May 31...
Build Number: IM74K.JPLPD
Now i have done some researched and found that this bug is only triggered with kernels (ICS stock & leaked) which have the eMMC_Erase function/command. GB kernels are not known to have this erase function so they are safe.. Also the two safe kernels are franco r3 and speedmod k3 (Correct me if im wrong). Can anyone please guide me on the following:
1) Should I flash Stock Gingerbread OR ICS Kernel(franco/speedmod)?
2) Should I use Recover or ODIN?
3) Plz Provide the links for the Kernels - Franco R3 & Speedmod K3 which are safe?
4) Will the above Kernels provide root access?
5) Is abyss kernel safe (because it supports GPU overclock)?
6) Can i flash an ICS kernel over a Gingerbread ROM?
For answering please answer in a similar numbered way so that it is easy to read and understand for me as well as future audience! Thanking everyone who takes time to read and answer!
I use Speedmod kernel and i confirm that it is safe (for me at least anyway) Im using CleaNote ICS ROM, So I would suggest you also use speedmod kernel,
You Flash it in Odin, It will give you CWM and Root too !
Ive attached the kernel to the post for you.
Abyss kernel is safe, But its for GB ROMs only, You are on ICS so it wont work.
I dont know if you can flash ICS kernel over GB ROM, However, Your are on ICS so you shouldnt need to worry about that.
don't really want to hijack your thread an i dont really want to make a whole new thread for a simple question.
as a noob, im just wanting to know, if i update my stock gb to stock ics via software update, are there still chances of this emmc bug/brick thats going on?
and the battery drain issues, do they only exist in custom roms or does it exist in stock roms too?
cheers.

Thanks for the confirmation mate, one more thing to ask you: Is the speedmod kernel faster than the stock ICS kernel? Is there any flaws such as battery drain/WIFI problem with it? Also does it support GPU OC? Thanks once again for your help!

Firstly get your Galaxy Note checked using Chainfires App (Gotbrick v1.1). If the verdict says "Danger" only then does your device have this problem. My Galaxy Note (Rev 0x19) had this problem and came with GB out of the box and i upgraded it to ICS through Samsung Kies and it worked fine. So i do not think that while updating to ICS via Kies will cause this problem. As of what i know it is triggered when a command eMMC errase is triggered when either doing a factory reset or wipe through recovery. The update as such did not brick my device, however this does not mean it cannot brick yours. I am no expert on this so be a little cautious while updating. I would suggest stick to GB until Samsung Releases a safe stock ICS ROM with a safe Kernel. Cheers!
really easy
1: (optional ) in GB do factory reset (after you have made a backup with TB)
2: put phone in Download mode.
3: use PC odin flash STOCK ICS rom
4: reboot device let it load
5: put device back into download mode
6: use PC ODIN flash Speedmod k3-3
7: reboot
8: launch CWM and tell it to reboot in cwm recovery
9: load your custom rom of your choice
i HIGHLY recommend doing ONLY THE FACTORY RESET WIPE data and cache in GB before you start anything.
ONCE you are in ICS and have successfully loaded speedmod or franco's kernel then it is safe to do a factory wipe if you want. but ONLY after one of those 2 Kernels are on your device.

okay...
truth is i haven't actually bought the note yet.
just doing substantial amounts of research beforehand.
im pretty sure only the n7000 model is out in australia.
but it's all okay if i dont factory reset/wipe/anything-risky-in-general right?

Yes, this bug is known to trigger usually when you do a wipe using the recovery. However there have been some cases when doing a factory reset via the settings has also resulted in a brick. However if you stay away from recovery and do not intend to doing flashing/wipes then i guess you should be ok. And it is a matter of time before Samsung Comes up with a solution. They are said to be working on this bug already. I have the N7000 which i bricked once while flashing and then wiping but i got it repaired since i had warranty. Since then i have stayed away from wiping or installing any custom roms so the device has not given any problems. Hope this info helps! Cheers!
Rom doesnt load during boot
Dear Developers
I rooted my galaxy note and soon as that i got gained super user access for chain fire app, then i flashed CWM and installed crisello rom with abbysys kernel , it installed all the files correctly and soon after that the phone rebooted .After reboot the phone went inside the boot menu ( the world of galaxy UI boot menu ) and it frozen since then
i tired flashing various custom or stock roms and still the same problem i face

1. Afaik yes

3. No. CM based not compatible with Touchwiz framework.

I have a quick ( hopefully) question about the brick bug. I already asked but I think a mod must have deleted the whole thread, even though the thread was about the brick bug and I think I might have been bringing a new way ( well for some anyway) to flash safely to new ROMs.
So anyway, I have a 'safe' kernel ( speedmod), and I want to try out 4.0.4 stock ROM. I have extracted the stock ROM zip and the tar file inside. In there is the Zimage.
Do I just delete the Zimage then re-zip and flash from CWM?
OR Do I have to replace the Zimage with another, 'safe', Zimage ( for example just put the zimage in there from speedmod because I want to keep that for now). Does there NEED to be A Zimage there, or will it work fine without one. I don't want to start flashing the ROM and it get stuck half way through.
If it will work this way then this might be a fairly easy way for anybody to flash any new ROM they want. They'll just need to get a safe kernel on there in the first place.

Only from GB kernel such as abyss. If you flash from ics kernel you WILL brick. This goes for all cm based roms.

Gave that a go last night and I must not be doing something right. Either I need to re-zip it differently or I need to use something other than CWM (mobile odin?) because it's just aborting before it actually starts flashing anything.
Suppose I could always flash the separate elements on pc odin?

Try mobile odin. If you point to the tar, it should load all the components. You can then review which components are being flashed.

1. Add goku, dafuq, gl-notecore and abyss42 (GB) to your list.
2. Only do it from a GB firmware or at least a GB kernel like abyss42. SPECIFIC instructions per firmware is listed for a reason. Follow those instructions to the letter.
3. No.

Stock rom in a zip? Are you sure you are nit flashing a custom rom? Point us to the file/thread please.
If it is a custom rom, the it is meant to be via CWM.
1. Flash abyss42
2. Reboot recovery
3. Do your wipes
4. Flash.
Im sure there is a specific instruction on where you got that file. Or better yet, go to dr. Ketans thread and get your stock rom from there.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda app-developers app
It's just the standard rom file from sammobile.It does come as a zip you know. If you unzip it, then use rar on it you can see all the bits. I thought if I just put a different zimage in there it would just go ahead and use that, but didn't seem to like it after I zipped it all back up again.
Tonight I've ended up getting chainfires excellent CF-Root kernel.Flashed that through odin, over my speedmod kernel.
Put just the factoryfs part of the stock rom zip onto the SD card and flashed that using the cwm app that CF-Root installs for you.. Now have CF-Root kernel and 4.0.4 firmware.
If you don't already have a "safe" kernel then I dunno what the brick chances would be, but since I had a safe one already I thought it couldn't hurt to try it out.
The reason I haven't flashed the hidden, cache, model and sbl parts of the zip is that simply they wouldn't fit on my SD card If it behaves funny or I can make space then I'll try the rest too. And the reason I didn't flash the zimage from the zip should be fairly obvious. Because I don't want a brick
EDIT: I managed to clear some space on the SD and flashed the rest of it. Seems to be working ok, so far anyway. I'm hoping the battery issues from 4.0.3 will be a little better. This is a really good way of doing it all as you can just swap out a potentially bad kernel for one that has been 'protected' by having te emmc cap erase turned off.
Hello,
I've being reading a lot this forums and I really wish to Flash a custom Rom.
My steps so far:
I updated my Galaxy Note N7000 throught Odin to version 4.0.4.
Then I rooted the phone using CWM folling the instructions from dr.ketan.
Can I just simply flash a rom using CWM or should I downgrade the phone to GB? Do I have to flash a custom Kernel or no? BTW mine is stock.
I really wish to flash a rom but i dont want to brick my phone.
Sorry for my English, is not my main language.
Thanks
If you're familiar with using Odin and flashing ROMs like that, then I mostly recommend reverting to GB, getting root + CWM also according to dr. Ketan's guide. You'll find stock GB and how to root them in the Development Section Stickies
So far, the only 100% safe way to flash custom ROMs (ICS or others) through CWM is with a working Gingerbread CWM. Some would recommend flashing through Abyss Kernel, or flashing through mobile Odin.
Again, and this is coming from one of our top-notch devs... The only 100% safe way is to flash from a rooted GB.
Also, while we're on it, may I also recommend Cyanogen Mod 9 (you'll find it in the General section of the forum) and CM9 - based ROMs. They have a safe kernel, that means you can flash and full-wipe as much as you want from CM, without reverting back to GB. CM9 also gave me the best performance and battery consumption so far. Only disadvantage would be if you don't like the stock Android look and would rather have an S3 - feel or TouchWiz or whatever.
Also VERY IMPORTANT!!! DO NOT FULL-WIPE (Factory Reset) from your ICS!!! That's how phones get bricked, that's why you shouldn't flash from stock rooted ICS!
Best of luck and let me know if you need anything else!
Cheers and welcome to XDA

i found this a very good summary and guide of all thats going on here. i too want to try all the custom roms,
suppose one has a certain ics TW rom installed but would like to change the kernel to a another one, then which is the right method please ?pc odin, mobile odin, or CMW that comes with that particular rom installed ?

That mostly depends. Best way would be to either ask in the ROM's thread or in the kernel's thread. Some ROMs might recommend you flashed in the following sequence:
- Reboot into recovery
- Flash Abyss Kernel 4.2 Redpill (Original or custom logo, doesn't matter)
- IMPORTANT! Go to advanced => Reboot recovery
- Flash the kernel of your choice
- Reboot system
Others might recommend you flashed directly from the included CWM. Again, I'm not sure there's really a rule to this...
So far the only totally safe, non-headache kernel + ROM is Cyanogen and all Cyanogen-based, like Paranoid, Asylum and a few others. If you run those you can flash and full-wipe at will. With others, you should either ask or do a little thread-searching.
And also make sure that if you're running a TouchWiz ROM, flash a TouchWiz kernel. That's...really important, for obvious reasons and the type should be specified in the kernel's description or first post
Got a problem!!!

Just go into recovery and do a full-wipe. If the problem persists, try another ROM.
Full-wipe should do the trick, though.

Uhm...I think you full - wiped from ICS... maybe accidentally flashed an ICS stock ROM instead of GB?
GB stock kernels don't do that...
First of all you should consider reading a few threads of people that have already been through this and gotten out ok.
Chances are you'll be able to flash a new ROM from there, but a little research is in order. I don't really know your exact situation (what ROM you have on and what kernel),and I haven't been in this pickle myself, so I may not be the best to advise you on this.
However, it is VERY unlikely that you're on GB... The emmc bug that you've described is typical for early ICS builds.
Hello dear XDA peeps
I need some help here or maybe I dont, thats why Im asking!
I rooted and followed all the guides a couple of months back, must be over half a year, and installed ICS Stunner 1.4.19. At that time that was simply the most interesting for my Note. These days when more stable ICS roms seem much more appealing. Altho Im thinking Im waiting for a stable working beta for JB
Since I havent done some ROM loving for quite a while Im quite confused where to begin, do I need to upgrade CWM Manager first? I have version 3.15. Or can I go straight on new ROMs? I spent some time reading about updating CWM today and it seems I have a really dangerous kernel version, 3.0.15-I9220ZLP5-CL295568 and if I understand the CWM Manager thread correctly thats part of the dangerous kernels. Which seems quite dangerous to update it since I cant find a safe version of CWM Manager to update to.
So the bottom question, do I need to update CWM Manager first to do anything safe or update the kernel first to perhaps an old safe rooted GB kernel? All the guides and stuff says the safest way is to first install an old safe GB kernel and then install a ICS or JB kernel (not at the moment tho) but is this the truth in my case?
Anyway, I really appreciate if you could give me some advice here
Thanx in advance

There is newer cf root that is 5.6. This is a safe rooted stock kernel by chainfire with CWM manager.
The devs suggest when installing TW ics custom rom it is recommended to install it while already in ics rom.
First install stock gingerbread rom, while in gingerbread rom do the wiping data,cache, and dalvik and then flash ics rom for clean installation. DO NOT WIPE IN STOCK ICS ROM, DANGEROUS. READ THE WARNING IN THE FORUM.
You can choose any tw custom rom you like.
If you want suggestion on what custom rom just ask i gave you one.
Ok, still not sure what do to first but it is safe to install a GB rom first? Updating CWM isn't that important? What I meant was that I still cant find a fitting version to install. Nearest version is: CF-Root-SGN_DD_ODD_LP8-v5.5-CWM5.zip but thats on the danger list so Im still confused about what version to download.. :/
Perhaps CF-Root-SGN_DD_ODD_LP8-v5.6-CWM5.zip is safe to install tho?
EDIT: I saw that I had cf-root version 5.2, it was CWM Manager that was version 3.15
EDIT: getting a new baseband comes with a rom, no need to install baseband seperatly? For example, getting Cassie's XtraLiteRom Version X LC1 295Mb is getting my baseband LC1 too?

You can flash the cassies custom rom directly over the stunner rom if you want to, just be sure to use ABYSS KERNEL for wiping.
Base band also known as modem. There are many flashable modem to choose so no problem what modem you Want.
If you want to install cassies latest custom rom you will get also the latest CWM recovery and manager.
Uhm ok.. so much information Im confused as usual
I cant find exactly abyss kernel. Can it be this one? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1362424/
And can I flash all roms via CWM or do I have to use PC ODIN?
EDIT: found the abyss note kernel, really slow downloading tho.
