It should be safe as SPEEDMOD has MMC_CAP_ERASE disabled. I wouldn't be able to tell you it's 100% safe as the only thing I've tried via CWM are flashing several zips, wiping dalvik/cache and nandroid backup. Haven't tried flashing a rom or doing a factory reset via CWM. Im using Speedmod k3-3 btw
Personally I wouldn't flash any custom roms until this whole hardbrick fiasco is fixed officially by samsung. I am not confident enough to flash custom roms yet. I love my note and contented with stock+custom kernel, I couldn't afford to have it bricked.
My advice if you really want a custom rom, is to read the rom's installation instructions carefully, follow them and don't miss a step and as the old xda
saying goes, "FLASH AT YOUR OWN RISK"
Good Luck!

As long as you will flash them from GB base and will never use Factory Reset / Data Wipe while on any ICS ROM you'll most definitely be safe. There's no 100% guarantee, but ROMs like CM9 use safe kernel and updated their update scripts to kill this bug.

Tab only boots to recovery and wont flash after dalvik cache clear

I was running galaxian soup ROM 1.4 and wanted to flash to 1.5.1. Unfortuantely I was not paying as much attention as I should have been and cleared the cache before doing a wipe cache worked ok, dalvik cache got part way through and tehn rebooted.
Now the device wont boot into the OS and instead reboots into recovery. When in recovery, attempting to do a wipe or a flash or a dalvik cache clear all start and then reboot.
Anyone have an idea on next troubleshooting steps? ANy help is greatly appreciated.
Odin to stock & try again.
I assume you can get into download mode..

I used odin to get to stock based on the instructions and files in this thread

The process seemed to work, the odin screen gave me a green pass

and the device reboot but when it did it just reboot to this screen.
Any help is appreciated.
That's a bad flash..
Redownload the ROM and flash again.
Gotta love when Odin brain farts.

Edit; failing that follow the overcome restock instructions and all should be well.
Goodluck!

In my case, usually when coming back from the ICS Betas, some weird stuff happened with my tablet in more than one occasion. Errors with partitions to sum it up. The only way to make the tablet boot once more into Honeycomb was...selecting the nuke (wipe/factory reset in the Stock Recovery) making me lose all SDcard contents. I don't know whether this also applies to you or not, but keep it in mind.

Need some help with CM9

All right, so I'm currently running on the latest WEUI 0.9.6 (ics 4.0.4), and a semaphore 1.0.0 kernel. I would like to revert back to CM9, but I don't know the safest method of doing so. I'm mostly concerned about the kernels, not really familiar with them. Would some body please give me instructions? Thanks in advance
Hi ! I have done just that with the earlier version of this ICS MIUI rom.
You can safely flash CM9 from your SD Card but wipe data , wipe partition and go to advance and wipe dalvice . But do this on 100% battery. Believe me , its much better ! hope this helped you. Sammy

HOW TO FLASH ?
Coming from a non ICS ROM (GGB) or AOSP ROM get to a rooted stock TW ICS ROM first
Rooted TW ICS/JB ROM:
Flash via ROM-Customizer coming from any rooted ROM:
1. Download CustomSettings.apk HERE
2. Put it on your sdcard,
3. Open romcustomizer/flash file from sd and flash as a system app (popup will give you the choice).
4. Choose the ROM-flash settings you want in "romcustomizer/rom-settings" but be sure to tick wipe
5. Then go back to flash file from sdcard where u need to select the ROM(AllianceROM_N7000_JB-XXLS2-Base.zip)

you can flash via CWM. but it is not reccomended. Thats why op removed the second option to flash via cwm.

I also faced the same issue while installing cwm 6.x
Now you have to reset your recovery to stock.
Go to this thread,

Follow the instructions under the section 'How to install Stock Firmware? '
Where you have to use Odin along with Stock firmware for your region.
If you are facing problems while using Odin, feel free to ask me again...
Don't worry, you can recover your device.

I wanted to do factory reset while I was using custom ROM (LineageOS) and then my phone restarted to recovery but I'm not using stock one. Now TWRP recovery goes on, then screen blinks and over and over again.

Your device is bricked, you have to use Odin. By the way, there are different TWRP releases, and there are different Lineage releases, too. Be precise to get proper help. And use thx buttons

There are my twrp and los
And how can I use odin to get it to work?
Read the Odin thread to learn how it works. Choose Odin-flashable Recovery and by taste to flash it. It's all good explaination there, Odin methods included, and you need to know how things work, so you have to teach it yourself.
You just need a working Recovery, after that you can flash as before from sd card or flash the rom with Odin. Cheers
