[Q] how to flash i9000 back to official 2.3 rom from ics

My friend is now using onecosmic's ics beta2 which is a very old release
but he think ics is not so stable and he don't really want to checking new release everyday.
So he decided to go back to official rom , but how?
I heard that ics roms repartitioned the phone
Just simply flashing a official rom with odin?
and any way to unroot?

Use Odin with pit and partition checked.

paranoidandroid question

Hi all, i was wondering why i can't just use mobile odin to flash PA on my gnote.
I actually have CM9 RC installed.In the official Thread the guide says "DO NOT
WIPE WITH STOCK SAMSUNG ROM OR CUSTOM ROMS LIKE CM9"...so here is my question, whats the need of Mobile odin? i thought i was a fastest way to flash roms without do the same process all the times...
Im' new to this world, please be kind guys:silly:

You can't flash another ROM from any ICS-based ROM. Some Samsung ICS kernels cause a so called brick bug, which causes your device to brick (read: it won't boot anymore) because Samsung ****ed something up with the internal memory. If you do a full wipe while on a stock or aosp ROM, you risk bricking your device.
The fastest way (it's not really fast tho) to flash other ROM's at this moment is to revert back to a gingerbread rom, root it, get CWM (clockworkmod recovery) and flash your ROM from recovery or odin, whatever you like.
You're now on a ICS based rom (CM9), which means if you attemt to flash another rom now and you need to do a full wipe, chances are you'll end up with a bricked phone.
Try the "revert back to Gingerbread" method to be sure you will not brick your device. There are plenty of tutorials around here to help you along with this method.

So if i understood the issue at the moment its just caused by samsung right? I mean if they are going TO fix this software bug we Will have the chance TO flash directly from mobile odin?

No, it needs to be flashed with cwm. You'll get an unsigned zip error if you try with mobile odin and flash will fail. Follow instructions on all roms and you won't have any problems.

I thought with abyss kernel you can flash with ics?
Woah im a lucky guy that i havent bricked my note.

Ics/gb dont wanna kill wifes note!!

Hello forum, well the wife at the moment is on gingerbread, but she was on ics which i put back to gb using pc odin..
We also have the thing with brickbug too
We want to go to a ics custom rom instead of ics stock we had originally....
Are all ics kernals with the bug or is it just stock kernal???
Correct way to clear old stuff on phone? I did clear phone using mount/storage area (was this okay???)
Thank you for any help!!!

It's only the stock kernel which has this brick bug, if you flash a safe kernel you will be fine and can safely do a full wipe.
I would recommend trying cleanote rom and kernel its very smooth and fast and stable and is close to stock.
Start by upgrading to ics again and then flashing speedmod kernel in odin

Eventhough the brick bug scripts are disabled in many kernels it would be preferably safe to always flash abyss kernel 4.2 before a wipe. You have nothing to lose spending a few minutes more. So time to time before switching between roms and doing wipes think and re-think. be safe. :angel:

GB stock ROM.

I find here this emmc bug is killing everyone.
I bought this GN just 2 weeks ago.at begining it came with GB installed.i recieved ota update in the same day for ics.so i did it.
After updating i did factory reset the device without knowing that there is a danger to damage the device.
Then i tried to root and installed some other kernels with cwr, which was another mistake.and finally flash it again with stock rom.but this time no wipe!
So the phone is not in clean state.
I read that one way to avoide damaging the device is to flash it with GB rom and then wipe then flash it again with ics one.all by pc odin.
But my problem is i cant find the original GB Rom to do it.
Is it important to flash with original or i can do it with any stock GB rom?
And is there any kernel based on stock kernel which has no mod no tweak and stuff but safe to wipe?i mean with mmc earase disabled.

Here's the link where you can find stock GB (Courtesy of doc Ketan) ->http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424997 Find your Stock ROM (based on your region)
Let me clear out some wrong notions spreading before.... you can safely WIPE your phone even on ICS as long as you have installed a safe kernel on to your device. You don't necessarily need to go to STOCK GB and do the wipe from there. It is already safe WIPING your phone on ICS just as long as you have the safe kernel installed on your phone.
Safe kernels to mentioned are SpeedMod, HardCore (that is if your in ICS), AbyssNote (if your still on stock GB)

Again no stock GB rom from my country.funny i went to samfirmware before and nothing there also.but for other region there are many!
Current ROM is N7000XXLRI
Which is the only FW from my region.

If you can't find any stock GB from your region then don't fret , Download a direct rootable ROM closest to your region and flash it from there. Remember, your goal is not to say long in GB right? so after you've downloaded a direct rootable GB ROM.. Download back your stock ICS ROM thru PC Odin, ROOT it thru Doc Ketan's thread still and then do a FACTORY wipe after.
P.S. Don't worry about the triangle mark on your boot up screen. You can safely remove that thru ChainFire's TriangleAway app (when your rooted already)

I'll try this.
After all, what do you suggest as a daily driver rom or kernel on GN which is safe and stable to flashing wiping and stuff?
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda app-developers app

I'm using stock LRQ (for now), but I've cooked it and made some big modifications to the ROM itself and now everything's working and my phone ''flies'
For the kernel.. SpeedMod is my truly one option... Stability and battery performance... It never fails on me still.... Any cooked ROMs I'm making or flashing one from our good ROM cookers here on this forum.. This kernel is still my best bet... but hey... this just me okay... if you want other safe kernels out there, feel free to try them out... it's your choice anyway...

Hydracore can be used on all ICS and JB roms (TW, CM and AOKP) another is Speedmod for TW ICS roms, these two are safe and can be used as per your rom. Most of the roms are stable now, it totally depends on you, which one suits your requirements
Edit- letters_to_cleo your invisible status always confuse me, lol.

Thanks everyone for replys and help.
Very useful for me. Ofcource boring for you guys.....

Galaxy note won't turn on.

Hi, I am having an issue with my galaxy note, I was running a custom rom checkrom v5. However, I wanted to unroot it due to some reasons. So I uprooted it by flashing a stock rom via Odin and after that, Odin stated "Pass". But my phone won't boot at all after that! I tried to access the download mode and recovery mode but nothing happens! The phone is as if it's dead. May I know why does this happen? Thanks!

Please post questions in the Q&A​

try to remove the battery and wait for few seconds and try again

remove the battery and then put it back. Hold the power button for about a minute or until the GALAXY NOTE logo shows up.

Make sure u have enof charge in the battery or try a different battery.
If that doesn't work try a jig to force the phone to download mode

either way, I could come one possible scenario why your phone would not boot up after... it might be entirely the kernel your using or your trying to flash...either way, it's like this.... I'm thinking you did not flash a ROM itself but the kernel only... when you tried flashing your stock running GB Note, you flash a custom ICS kernel...that's the only conclusion I can derive why your phone would not boot up anymore. What was the name of that custom ICS kernel your using? If you tried HydraCore..I guess NoteCore or Hydra supports GB (i'm not totally sure on this though), All other custom ICS kernels (SpeedMod and etc) will not work... you'll just bork your phone,making it a dead one. There is a guide from Doc Ketan on how to safely and correctly try to unroot your phone.. have you tried that process before??
now, your phone, might be in a deep sleep mode process right now,,, you need to try charging for a longer time and while charging, just attempt to power it on again....
if you can't still can't turn your phone on... then yeah right, the JIG is the only recourse you have to wake your phone up from it's deep slumber.

Does the phone charge? Let it charge for a while.

Actually I did flash an ICS kernel when i installed cyanogenmod 9. But however, I restored back to my first rom, checkrom v5 running gingerbread to retrieve some data before I installed a stock version of the rom. When I restored back, I followed a tutorial from this guy in YouTube called cursed4eva. I believe that he also got the tutorial from Dr Ketan's thread and did a video tutorial on it.
