After Flashing Franco Kernel with CWM my Phone stucks at Galaxy Note Bootscreen

Sooo i ve flashed with Odin at the PC the XXLPY Open Germany ICS Firmware 2 weeks ago. Then i have rooted it with CWM and installed Superuser. Everything worked great but....
Yesterday i wanted to flash the Franco Kernel so i got the updater app downloaded it and in recovery mode with cwm i installed the zip. Everything fine after rebooting i got stuck at the bootscreen Samsung Galaxy Note i thought okay i try a wipe also it didnt help at all. In Recovery Mode it seems that the Note cant mount my external SD anymore :S so how can i fix the Note problem? Because i can enter Download and Recovery Mode so it isnt Hardbrick is it?
Thank you for tips.

Franco is a GB Kernel not an ICS one
If you can get into recovery use Odin PC and try flashing the original ICS firmware from 2 weeks ago. Hopefully you can then reboot. If not try a GB ROM that will suit the Franco kernel. Hope that works for you.

Same happened to me, I pulled out battery and then put it back, after that went to recovery download mode and did the rest of the thing using PC ODIN.
I used GB ROM to get back. but still it sucks as FC errors.
After many FC I was able to navigate to setting and did the factory reset.
then once again I flashed the ICS Rom and now its working fine.

same works here also i tried at first gb 2.3.6 by drkategas thread so the original and then flashed the ics again and rooted it with cwm
everything as it used to be

Going back to GB from the German XXLPY ICS

Hi everyone
I am new to Android. I upgraded my galaxy note GT N7000 to the official ICS German version. everything went smooth but then the battery consumption was terrible. I tried Franco kernel #3 and it didn't help so i restored the other kernel using CWM. everything is fine now but i heard about the risk of phone brick. I want to go back to GB but all the methods i reviewed involve wiping data which is the risky step that might hard brick the phone. Any suggestions? ?
Thank you and forgive my humble English

afaik there is no way to downgrade (officially) without wiping everything :/

flash via cwm the abyss kernel, reboot in recovery through this kernel
Wipe & reflash from abyss a GB rom

I did a CMW backup before flashed to German ICS. After that find out that the ori ics is not really fast and stable, so I restore back to GB through CMW..

probably I will try that. I was decided to keep the ICS till a solution for the brick comes up but this afternoon the phone screen started to go blank and display like old tv so it seems I have to go back to GB.
Another question please : Is there a risk that the phone will "auto-brick" by itself if I just keep the current ICS without making any changes or the brick happens only while installing or changing something??

[Q] abnormal error, can anyone help me?

Hi,
I as of yet, am not going close to any ICS build till the issue gets solved by someone.
so I am experimenting with different gb roms. i was using checkrom v6 but didnt like it, so followed steps to install darkyrom/alliancerom extreme edition. i followed the steps as I was told to install allianceota and flash the rom through there. it didnt work. so instead using cmw i flashed through recovery, it did flash but there no root.
so now, i reflashed a stock la6 rooted rom from here; http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1535025
this went smoothly with no problems, so i installed allianceota as normal, this time when i try to flash the following messages come up:
Installing Multi-CSC
Can't access to '/system/CSC/KOR/system/'
Successfully applied multi CSC"
and then it gives me the option to reboot, wipe cache and a few other options, not full recovery mode.
shall i just reflash the rom through recovery, or am I doing something wrong? and does the slight error above mean I have a problem with my note?
cheers in advance.

Let me just say that almost every ICS ROM out there now has disabled the MMC_CAP_ERASE code in the kernel that activates the eMMc bug and bricks your phone. If you want stock ICS, you can use SpeedMod or Franco kernels. If you want AOKP, there is that now. If you want CM9, there's a bunch of variations plus the official CM9 nightly. If you read through the OP and stickies, you will be okay.
Are you on stock recovery still? It sounds like it from the error you are getting. Try flashing CWM recovery and installing the GB rom with that. Follow Drketan's thread in Android Development.

hmmm, so would you advise me to use ics? is it much better? i dont want to use cm9 builds as i need the spen apps and so on. i have looked into kingdroid or alba.
I'll have to think hard about this. i may give it a shot soon though..
oh and btw, I fixed the problem, yep it was to do with cwm it wasn't installed with the stock rooted rom. as for allianceota, it still didnt flash the rom, i had to flash the rom through cwm manually.
cheers anyhow.

I love ICS a lot more than GB. If you want to use stock ICS, I would just use Franco or Speedmod kernels with it and be safe. Read both of their forums and decide what you want to do.

I had the same problem with rom deodex i had flash with odin 1.85 firmware gingerbread here ; http://www.hotfile.com/dl/152168378/f76281c/N7000XXLC1_N7000OXXLB3_ATO.zip.html... then i made wipe cache and cache dalvick .

I've just flashed AlBa repack latest one on xxlq2, I did it by following the steps,
I thought i had broken my phone, because when the flashing finished and i was rebooting, at the beginning when it welcome to galaxy note n7000 and then goes to the bootup video, it restarted that several times, then after like a few minutes it loaded the homescreen and startup.

Soft brick using Stock ICS and Notecore Kernel?

Hi all,
I've been running the stock UK ICS, flashed with PC Odin, for a couple of months now. I rooted using Dr. Ketan's guide, flashing CF-Root, then flashed the speedmod kernel initially, but was not too happy with the battery life, then the NoteCore kernel about a month ago (can't remember the exact version).
So I haven't flashed anything new for a month. Today I noticed the phone getting very hot in my pocket, and noticed that it was stuck on the Samsung Boot screen (I hadn't restarted, so happened without my input). Taking out the battery and restarting didn't work, so I was worried by this. Restarting to CWM was also worrying, since I couldn't mount the internal or external storage - the phone wasn't recognised by adb either. I therefore re-flashed the stock UK ICS firmware using Odin on the PC, and this seemed to work successfully, getting the green light with Odin.
However, when it rebooted, I was stuck on the Samsung logo again, and he phone won't boot. Is the device bricked, or is there anything else I could try?

Try flashing a gb rom then perform data, cache, and dalvik wipe before rebooting. Do this while in gb rom only.

[Q] Phone stuck on Samsung logo

I was on an ICS based MIUI, when I tried a stock JB ROM (Angry v3).
I have been pretty wary of the EMMC bug, hence I first installed a stock GB ROM and then rooted it through the zergrush method guide Dr Ketan has posted.
Post which I installed the JB ROM, all went well the phone was working for the night. However in the morning at work the phone froze and restarted and was stuck on the Samsung screen (not the boot logo). I did not want to try anything so I got home, the phone was booting in the download mode, so I tried installing the stock GB ROM again through ODIN. All went fine, I got the pass screen on ODIN and the phone rebooted but stuck again at Samsung screen.
Now I cannot even enter the recovery mode, So I am stuck with a paperweight ?

Try connecting the charger. Battery could be dead empty. And this is not Q & A Forum.

Battery was at 80% last checked. Will have the thread moved, and try charging the phone too.

By the way, if thou are on gingerbread firmware; it's safe to factory reset.

first switch off your phone then press the home+voluke up+power button in combination then you can bootup into the stock gb recovery from their format everything(presumed that you are on gb) and please dont post question in general thread..reported

Hmm, I tried installing another version of stock GB ROM through ODIN, was successful. I was able to to load into recovery, a wipe data and wipe cache allowed me to boot the GB ROm Am downloading the JB Jellybam ROM. A last question, should I be wary of stock leaked versions of JB? I quite liked TW
As always this forum has been of infinite use
