Hi,
I've already posted something about this before but I haven't had any response in a while.
I'm trying to unlock my Dad's N7000 locked to Orange in UK and my Galaxy S2 locked to 3 in UK so we can swap.
I know I can flash a pre-rooted ROM or I can Downgrade from 2.3.6 to 2.3.5 usin Odin or other softwares but I don't know which firmware I am supposed to use or kernel or what ROM for UK. or is 2.3.6 rootable? or shud I upgrade to ICS then root?
I'd like to stick to the original ROM as much as possible, and hopefully would be able to update to ICS once rooted and carrier unlocked.
The details for the N7000 are
PDA: N7000XXLC1
Phone: N7000XXLB2
CSC: N7000ORALA1
I've been trying for ages to find the info to do this, i'd appreciate any help pleeease
You can directly update to ICS and then root. as it is easy to root on ICS.(i recommend go clean, e.g. wipe cache and data on GB then flash ICS)
once you root device unlock using this
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.helroz.galaxysunlock&feature=search_result
Call your provider,
They do it for free - well, o2 do anyway, not sure bout Orange etc... And I had only had my Contract about 2 months..

Also my wifi is barely responding
You have partial root, try installing Busybox from market and then install binaries from busybox application inside.

As I read in this post, you have to flash an older stock rom, root it, then flash the new stock rom using mobile-odin with keep root option on.
Text from the post:
"As New ROMs are not direct rootable, you cant root it direct method like Zergrush exploit or CF-Root, If you want such new ROMs Rooted, You shud have currant Older ROM installed, If you are not rooted and flashed Newer ROM, first downgrade to older ROM as above said.then you may update n Root it with one of following two methods."
XXLA6
i want also root my note
Baseband Version : N7000XXLA4
Buildnumber: GINGERBREAD.XXLA6
KERNEL: 2.6.35.7-N7000XXLA6-CL907341 [email protected]#2
anyone how and what to use
As jellevanb wisely stated... This thread holds the answers: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424997
I was on La6, flashed KKA with PC Odin, then used CF-Root for KKA (props to Chainfire for his amazing work) then flashed LA6 on-device using CWM Manager that was installed with CF-Root. Now I have La6 with root
I also was on LA6, flashed AbyssNotekernel42CWTouchOriginalLogo.tar with PC Odin then used CF-Root-SGN_XX_SER_LA6-v5.0-CWM5. It worked for me.
The easiest way to gain root would be this:

CWM on galaxy note
hey guys i have rooted my galaxy note but i want install MIUI Rom
i think need first clockworkmod ,
have wacthed so many videos but still i dont know how to do it
Hi guys,
I managed to root my Galaxy note using the guide provided by Dr. Ketan here (option is CFroot + CWM). It was successful. Few weeks later I upgraded the firmware through Samsung Kies to LA4 and of course lost root access, and can no longer see CWM.
Can someone please help as to how I can restore root access? Would downloading the LA4 kernel from the same link above and running "already-rooted.bat" work?
No..this means you have lost all the rooting access. You got to re install directly rootable Rom via pc odin and re root the device..this is the simplest way i think.

Two things you can do.
Downgrade to directly rootable rom and then root it . Now install Mobile Odin Pro and flash the newer stock rom through it keeping the ever root option so that mobile odin root the newer rom while flashing.
Second. You can follow this - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1535025
Cheers!
Hit thanks if it helped!
Thanks a lot priyanv and abhisahara. Is there a guide somewhere similar to the original rooting thread showing the downgrade + flashing using Odin?
yes, download it from last link on my signature
- Start with ' I have non rootable ROM' that guide you step by step from downgrade to updating ROM
Hi all.
Finally got a Note and love it, but while I wait for official ICS here in the UK, I'd like to keep stock 2.3.6 GB but safely root it.
There's so much info here, it makes me a bit nervous in-case I pick the wrong method.
I have this:
https://www.box.com/s/1dfacc6107713602d2e8
and would like to know what method I should use to root.
Thanks

Use Dr. Ketan's method!
Go here and follow the instruction for your Rom.
Edit: Just saw your picture, you have LA4 not LA6 on your device, that means that you can flash a Direct Rootable Rom!
Thanks for the reply but I'm a bit confused, my Note shows Build: GINGERBREAD XXLA6 as does the Kernel, so are you saying that it's the Baseband version : N7000XXLA4 that I should be paying attention to?
Also according to Kies it's PDA:LA6 / PHONE LA4 / CSC LA1 (XEU)
yes la4 is the rom version you are using, you will need to downgrade to be able to root
which rom do you suggest I downgrade to and still allow update via Kies?
Will the downgrade via Odin up my flash counter and give me the triangle?

go look at the root thread, there is a link for kj1, which is non wipe rom so all your settings will stay in tact
no it wont give you the triangle because it is a stock rom

I bought the Galaxy Note N7000 yesterday and I have exactly the same android-, baseband-, kernel version and build number. The only difference is I'm from the Netherlands and using Vodafone.
Now I've been looking for a way to root it, but I also wondered which XXLA# I should use for it.. I saw the reply of the downgrade (ofcourse) but I am wondering: those r for Poland and Germany... Or doesn't that matter and I can root it anyway w/o bricking the phone?
Post november roms are difficult to root, best optuon is to go to pre december 2011 rom
Or go to ICS and use cwm. Zip and superuser. Zip method

Well yeah, I get that point, but the thing is: I'm kinda noob with this. To be honest: my roommates rooted my galaxy s for me, but they did it so fast that I didn't get half of what they did..
My eventual goal is to learn how to root a smartphone and upgrade mine to android ics. My current android version is an unrooted stock 2.3.6 and I wanna go for a rooted ICS, but I already start to wonder now if I can upgrade my phone to rooted ICS immediately from the 2.3.6... Could u guide me a little in this?
By the way: sorry if I ask some pretty obvious questions that might have already been answered elsewhere on the forum, but I have been looking all over the forum and just don't know which info I should use from which posts anymore..
If you want ics then it is very easy.
First flash ics and then root it., ics is directly rootable.
I recommend first hard reset on gb rom for clean installation.
All informatikn regarding ics update n root, u can find on first link on my signature.

Well, I thought the safest way to get me ICS on the phone was through updating with Samsung Kies. After this I was planning to put CWM in the folder sdcard/external_sd and Busybox on the internal sd, but...
I got it updated now, but I lost the folder external_sd.. I can't create a new folder with this name either.. I don't actually have an external SD card, but if I remember it well, I didn't need it either. I have seen the folder external_sd for sure in there..
Edit: Bought an external sd card and did the root like u said, but without flashing back to GB. It worked! Thanks alot for the clear walkthrough! Hail dr. Ketan!
Hey, perhaps somebody can heIp me.
Updated my Galaxy Tab 7 today from Firmware 2.3.6 (other details I don't know) to
Firmware 2.3.6
Kernel-Version 2.6.35.7
Buildnummer GINGERBREAD.BOJU3
over Samsung Kies.
The Tablet was rooted, but after i confirmed the Firmware Update the Root wasn't there anymore.
Tried to re-root the Tablet with SuperOneClickv2.3.3-ShortFuse & DooMLoRD_v4_ROOT-zergRush-busybox-su_1_
but both didn't work.
Anyone got any Idea how to re-root or fix this. Got no Backup so resetting is the last option.
DooMLoRDs Tool said that he can't wright the SU File true no Write-Rights.
Superuser 3.3 is still installed and can't be uninstalled true no root rights.
SuperOneClick will not finish the Root and stops mostly on Part 7 of the procedure.
Tried to rooted with debugging and tablet on.
Thank You
maRul
Start by telling US which model is your galaxy tab 7.
There are many variants.

ahh sorry ; PT1000
Try chainfire root 3.3

I used CF-Root V3.3 from chainfire. It works for me.
You must flash this via Odin in Phone slot.

Good luck

No, kernel is just the kernel it doesnt affect your installed apps.
Anyway, I wouldnt bother with stock GB, I would recommend Overcom rom if you want GB and not ICS/JB.
thanks 4 helping. Installed a new Kernel with Odin3 8.5.
System is now rooted.
Perhaps I will update to ICS or JB later.

2.3.6

I bought a s advance from oman(asian arab country) it is on gingerbread and when i check for updates no update is being shown? Are there other models of s advance with no update from gingerbread? If so the rooting and flashing rom procedure are same or different?

Hi there.
1. It's necessary to note that samsul not do the update again on device S Advance through direct ota for those who still use the stock Gingerbread (GB). While still using the stock GB I once never get a firmware update but only minor updates. BUT you can to do firmware updates manually, by downloading firmaware directly from some of the sites that provide specific firmware for your country, such as: sammobile*com, samsung-updates*com.
Note: I assume if you expect an update to a firmaware. But if you run into problems updates an application from playstore, then I suggest you to do a wipe applications through: settings - application - select playstore and wipe data. Then try reboot. But if it still doesn't work then, try to wipe data / factory reset through default recovery.
2. If you still want to use the stock GB and want to root your device, then you can follow a guide on the thread here. You can try some of the menu that is available there may exist that are suitable for firmware are you using now. Honestly I never tried it.
3. For flashing method is the same on every device model samsung, using Odin application. For the method of rooting the device janice as far as I know have several methods, depending on which firmware you use now. If you are using firmware Stock GB then you can follow the above method. But if you use the stock firmware Jelly Bean (JB) then you can use the method on a thread here.
Hopefully it helps & Good luck.
So the matching firmware i download i can flash it using odin without needing root or anything?and if i dont update and root gingerbread,can install cm11 from gingerbread?
The end result im looking for is cm11 running on my device. Your help is much appreciated

No.. Just flash from stock GB to Stock JB via odin. And.. Done.
I cant find the exact firmware for my country. Will flashing other countries firmware brick my device?
