[Q] installing new rom - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hi there. i want to install 2.3.5 rom on my galaxy s and it contains a pit file in it. i wonder that if i use pit file , it fully wipes phone or not. i mean do i have to do a full wipe? and if i need how am i gonna do that?

Anybody correct me if I'm wrong but I thought Odin does a full wipe when its running? Don't take my word for as I may be wrong

[Q] Is that possible to unroot my note by flashing a stock rom using odin?

Is that possible to unroot my note by flashing a stock rom(with no root and no CWM) using odin?
I rooted by galaxy note few weeks ago by flashing a rooted stock rom(with cwm installed) using odin. Afterward, I flashed rocketrom through clockworkmod.
I am wondering if it is possible to unroot and restore back to stock by simply using odin to flash an unrooted original stock rom(please note i am currently running rocketrom).
I know there are several methods provided in this forum like unrooting by Easy Rooting Toolkit( I know this is not possible which may result in broken system) or CF root(I doubt since i did not use cf root to root my phone), so i want to know whether unrooting by odin works. If not, please provide me any viable solutions, thx!
If you flash a stock version smartphones become like your just bought
Make wipe all before to be sure of the result.
EDIT: check CSC after

If your ROM(which u r going to flash) is wipe version, it will wipe off all data, in case you have to backuo it first.
If you dont want to keep root,then nothing more steps required. Just flash any stock rom with odin

So by Flashing Stock Rom; Root+CWM will be wipe out too?
No need to unRoot?
But from your Root Guide, you mention
"Now How I can revert back to Stock ROM/Unroot (In case of replacemet may i need)
If You have Root + CWM - then first find out original stock kernel (zImage file)
Now place this file in zImage folder, n repeat procedure(Initial CFRoot Flasher), which you have done at time of pushing CWM by selecting I am rooted already
Now unroot with above said unrooting tool."

This is for whom, who wants to remains on existing ROM. You just can understand stock rom requires 550 mb data to download, while unrooting tools just few Mb.
So who wants new stock rom + unrooting,just flashing new stock ROM with odin is enough.

Thx for your help! Do I need to wipe data/factory reset before going back to stock from rocketrom? Recently there were some ppl saying that they bricked their phone when they tried to go back to stock using odin, this really scared me.
I dont believe note can b bricked by changing rom. Yes it can cause bootloop if you tranafere custom to stock some time. Just xlear cache, delvic cache is enough to solve it. But if you can hard reset b4 changin rom, it is always gud.

-Mobie Odin needs Root
-It keeps your root intact
PC odin can't keep your Root intact, so if you are flashing a ROM, which if newer n not directly rootable, you can't get Root after this.
PC odin gives triangle, n raise flash counter if you flash custom ROM/Kernel
Both are safe.

How to roll back from CM9 to stock properly ?

Hi everyone,
I would like to know what's the best way and the cleanest to roll back my note from CM9 to stock ICS or GB. I like the work done by CM crew but I really miss smemo.
Can anyone explain me the steps, or show me a link where it's described because I haven't found anything serious about it.
Thanks a lot.

You need to be on GB in order to flash CM9.
Now, if you had a nandroid backup of a GB ROM, and then flashed CM9, then yes you could restore the GB ROM from your nandroid backup.
Last question, if I do the flash to GB from mobile Odin and the GB rom isn't rooted, pure stock. Will I exposed myself to any problem or it's safer to do the flash with Odin PC ?

Lol make sure stock is for your csc region.
Most stock are nonwipe, and so you will have to do factory reset and wipe caches from restore.
Cleanest is go to recovery, and factory reset, and wipe cache, and dalvik cache, and then in mounts format data and system. After this head into download mode and pc Odin your rom on it. But if you get a little perform a repartitions to when flashing. You will lose data this way.. All at your own risk
edit: do cleanest from gb or a safe kernel only.

see, if your phone was bought unlocked from Malaysia then you can flash any Malaysia stock rom using odin, no matter what rom/BB you are currently on (stock or custom) but I always suggest flashing stock GB firmwares as you can wipe them in stock recovery if required immediately after flashing through odin.
So now, if your phone was bought in Malaysia then download any of the 2 Malaysia GB firmware from post #2 in the link I gave you and flash using odin or mobile odin as per the instructions given in that thread.

If you are on cm rom then flash gb first. If on stock gb then wipe and flash stock ics using odin.
If you choose to flash ics over cm and if it stuck in bootloop then you wont be able to wipe in recovery because of emmc bug, so gb is best.
Stock GB rom from your region will most probably allow you to update to ics using kies, or else you can flash via odin later.

Rooting Note on ICS ROM PROBLEM

Hi,
I am new to Android Phones. I tried to root my Galaxy Note using the above method
2. Long, No raised couter OR Exclamation mark
-Downgrade to Rootable GB ROM and Root it. OR Download This pre rooted GB ROM and flash using PC Odin
-Wipe cache, data and delvic cache from recovery
-Install Mobile Odin Pro
-Copy ICS ROM file in .tar (you want to flash) to Internal SD card (recommended, but you can have it on EXT too)
-Download Odin (.tar) version of custom kernel like Notecore, Speedmod, CF root kernel Or other any with same function. If newbies have confusion to select, here is one for example Notecore V12 std kernel. You can use this. But newer version can be found on link mentioned above.
-Open Mobile Odin Pro
-select open file
but i run mobile odin without downloading the odin version of custom kernel (I got confused, I thought I needed to do thisafter running mobile odin) and now my phone is stuck in flashing mode for about 45mins switching on and off.
What should I do?
Thank you in advance for your help...
Christina
Flash Pre rooted ROm again Wipe cache and data and repeat procedure, that will be safe.
It worked! Thank you!
Just a quick question...
I followed all the steps mentioned on the thread up to installing mobile odin and copying the ics rom....
but I am confused with the odin version of custom kernel...I am trying to find the correct cf-root kernel through the link you provided but I can not find the KJ1. I downloaded the one you have attached below mobile odin screenshots. Is that ok?
And also where do I copy the kernel? Internal or external sd? Should it be in a specific directory in order to be detected by mobile odin?
Sorry for all these questions but I looked around and there is no specific instructions anywhere about this part.
Thank you...
Which rom you want to flash?

Since I am new to the android platform phones, I think it will be better if i explained what my objective is so I won't confuse you too....
I want to be able to install and use rooted applications like titanium back up. I read that in order to do this I have to root my phone.
So what I want to do now is to root my phone in order to use ie titanium black without upping my flash counter.
Also I do not care to have a custom ICS, I prefer the stock one for now until I become more familiar with all these.
I followed the steps but the customn kernel things has confused me.
My phone is as mentioned before a galaxy note with ICS 4.04 before I started the procedure, now I have Gingerbread 2.35.
What should I do?
Thank you

Go to this thread and just flash the kernel using PC Odin.(First way)

You will have CWM and rooted device.After that you can use Titanium Backup and all other applications which required root
Sahil hez on gb rooted.rom. So no need to flash custom kernel with pc odin. i think mobile odin will b best for him.
@op
Go to first link on my signature, download any ics rom you want
Download notecore kernel std tar version
Copy both.to sd card
Now look to rom switch over from my signature and find how to use mobile odin

Thank you for the quick reply!!!
Just to be sure, when you say first method you mean the one below
1. Short, easy - requires to reset counter
-Download Odin (.tar) version of custom kernel like Notecore, Speedmod, CF root kernel Or other any with same function. If newbies have confusion to select, here is one for example Notecore V12 std kernel. You can use this. But newer version can be found on link mentioned above.
-Flash it using PC odin for PDA tab.
-You will get exclamation mark and raised counter, which can be reset with Triangle Away
-First time opening triangle away application, it will ask to download file(flasher), let it complete. then choose to reset counter, it will restart in special recovery an finish job.\
If yes, then this brings us back - almost - to my original question....how do i use the custom kernel (cf or notecore) with odin? I know it uzips to a zimage etc but how do I use it which odin? Also which cf kernel -if iuse this one- is correct for my phone? Is there a link you can provide that explains all these?
Thank you!

After flashing ad Abyss Kernel 4.2 from my sd Card, then I reboot the phone, after that it stocks in samsung logo.
I'm not sure if my steps were correct 100%. And I did not backup also.

2- install zip from sd card
3- apply/sdcad/update.zip

What firmware were you running? Take into consideration that abyss kernel is gingerbread. If you were running an ICS ROM then that is why is not booting. If that is your case, find hydracore kernel (flashable zip version) and flash it in CWM. :thumbup:

Pit file method didn't work for me. All I had to do was to find exact rom that came with the phone. Then it went through without any error message.
