[Q] No Updates From Vodafone (Germany)

Hello everybody,
Since i cant get no updates (2.3.6) soon from my provider (Vodafone Germany), is possible to use one of the official roms or stock roms, and update my Note manually ?
If so, which Rom... ?
can i update to Open Europe ?
I'm on
2.3.5
Version n7000xxkj4
csc n7000vd2kj1
Thanks

of course you can.
check this thread
or do the following:
download XLA4 latest firmware europe and extract to a folder
download odin 1.85
Password : samfirmware.com
download and install kies for samsung
turn off your note, then press and hold volume down key+menu+power
a menu appears, choose continue (volume up i think)
open odin, plug in your note via usb to computer. you should see a yellow line COM:# connected
If your downloaded ROM contains single file
go to odin, browse the folder you extracted the files to and
Choose PDA button in Odin and press start
if more items then
CODE in PDA, MODEM in PHONE, Multi CSC in CSC and press start
good luck

Thank u... i will try it!

and double check "Re-partition" , it should be un-ticked. and do not select any pit files while flashing.

Just one more question... if i want my phone rooted, should i first root it? I mean before i apply the upgrade.
Thanks

Yes. you have to root it first. because latest firmwares are not directly rootable. just go through this link you can find which firmwares are rootable directly.

Thanks...
Hum!!!
Question.... how do i know if im still rooted?

And Kies is telling me that :

If you updated through odin or kies then you lost root. If you upgraded through mobile odin pro then you should still be rooted.

Kies is telling you that because there is a CSC code mismatch between the ROM you are running and what is on your device. You can change the CSC code by typing the following in the dialer: *#272*IMEI# where IMEI is your phone's IMEI number. I suggest choosing DBT since that is the unlocked Germany CSC and seems to get the most frequent updates. I changed my XEN (Netherlands) Note to a DBT one last week and it worked fine.
Changing the CSC will factory reset your Note, so back up your data first.

Can't access to /system/csc/ITV/system

Hi guys!
I have a problem, sigh...
I had a Note with the stock firmware KKA/KK5 and I had flashed it with ODIN the LB1 DBT stock rom.
Now I have done e deep clean and I have reflashed the KKA/KK5 stock rom without problems or errors.
Now the system had warning me about a update... to LB1. So I have loaded the update.
Seems all okay... but now if I go in the recovery mode, I have this error:
multi csc
can't access to /system/csc/ITV/system
Anyone can help me? I would like to delete this error.
thanks!
stefano

I fixed mine with a full wipe, then boot into the system, and skip the google account setup, and then reboot into recovery, and the csc was re applied.
Alternately, which will result is a full wipe anyway, is to chnage your CSC manually. You can use CSC selector from the market, or use the short codes.

Thank you for your reply!
I have done any attempt, but nothing.
If I try to change the csc, the display show me only one CSC... that is ITV... and It should be right.
But if I go in revovery mode, I receive always the same error... cant access to.. ecc. ecc...
If I put the KKA Italy stock firmware the error doesnt appear.
If I do the OTA update... I have the error.
Please, help, I dont understand why!
bye!

FOUND THE ANSWER!!!after surfing the WHOLE net i found the way...and i'm sure than NOBODY has ever found the answer so this should be useful for all users!!
simply downgrade to an old directly rootable gingerbread version (in my case the kka kk5 ITV on a no brand italian galaxy note)...after having the device rooted download root explorer and get to this folder.....system/csc/ ..there you'll find a looot of csc folders (HUN, ITV, etc)...each one comes from a different nation, simply copy and paste to a pc folder or external sd folder always with root explorer...then when you'll have updated to the latest firmware simply paste the csc folders that you need ( or all of them, so you can manually change csc without the hateful "must be three chars" writings) in to system/csc/ folder...i think that this problem will solve a lot of request on the net...i stayed awaked all night to do downgrades, upgrades etc...so hope this will be helpful to all xda users!
cheers \m/

[Q] No Display after installing a wrong stock firmware

Good Day
Sorry I know this is stupid of me but I just messed up. I kinda installed the wrong stock firmware on my GT-N7000, recovery mode is still accessible and it still boots (somehow), so as what I have read, I can still fix it by loading the correct firmware for it, and so I managed to install XXLSZ update for GT-N7000 hoping that it would fix the problem (and I did not), recovery can still be accessed (but no display) and I can still switch to download mode (and as what I assume, there is still hope).
I tried to search for correct infos in my case but I just do not know what to do anymore (and these anxiety attacks are really painful).
Sorry for being incompetent but would somebody be able to help me on getting out of my problem?
Thank you very much.
P.S.
I do not know if this is a sort of brick but it might be a software problem
I AM GOING CURAZEH!

Sorry but I installed the following:
N7000XXLSZ_N7000XXLSO_N7000ITVLS4_HOME.tar.md5
Twice or thrice but no effect, screen is still black(screen doesnt have a single ray of light in it!)
Can you recommend me any steps or should I download a different stock firmware?
P.S.
Download mode is still responsive.

Instead of a JB ROM, try a stock GB ROM.

Instead of using 1 file flashing...
try 5 files flashing method http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424997

With ODIN?
Download mode > put file on PDA > start
Am I missing a procedure ?

try a stock rom which has bootloader included like the stock XXLSZ german rom.. check if the rom you flashed earlier has a sbl file in it. open the md5 file using 7z and you can check.
what wrong rom did you flash?

Which ROM were you on? were you trying to upgrade maybe, give a little history. make sure you put your phone into charging now, as this trip could be long.

the phone was stock and a problem similar occured where the startup screen would keep flashing. i then rooted it with odin. im sorry i dont remember the Rom it was just a basic one.
Im wondering if any Rom is out there to just restore it. using Odin PC
also before when it first had the problem if i took the battery out and started it up it would work then freeze and do the same problem. now i cant get into the phone at all.
i believe my brother tried to update it(its is phone.) and thats when this happened.

use winrar or 7 zip. Right click on the zip file, go to extract files and you should have .tar file. Open Odin and click on PDA and browse to the .tar file. The custom roms are CWM Flashable so they are zip files only.

Restore CSC with Odin?

I was rooted on AOE, but decided to Odin back to stock to update to AO2. The update downloads, but fails to install at 25%.
The phone works fine, and data works, but would like to update. I used an app called Phone Info *Samsung* to find that in the CSC part, Firmware's CSC Code, CSC Country and CSC Country ISO is empty. The other fields do have something in them.
Can I just Odin the CSC_ATT tar.md5 file via the CSC box? or are there settings or anything that I might need to change before I can do that?
Thank you in advance!

Download the stock firmware for your device and flash all 4 files that you will find inside that file all at once.
BTW if your S6 is from AT&T the versions are NOT AOE nor AO2. They are OCE and OE2.

Yes, those are my versions, sorry about the confusion!
Can I flash all 4 without the risk of tripping Knox? I'm concerned about flashing the bootloader in particular.
Thanks again for your help.

Flash all 4 files at once, not individually. Bootloader is locked so no flashing for it.
