Different custom has different method of flashing rom. So best thing to do is go to the devs custom rom there is procedure there on how to flash the custom rom.
This i recommend, pick lrg v4 not the lr1 v1. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1579301

The point isn't about rooting, it's about being able to do a proper search. If you can't search, you're not going to get your answer.
There are 2 distinct threads that contain the LC1. They are both pre-rooted. One is odexed. The other is deodexed. If you do a search, you will find them both. If you are smart, you will read the entire thread BEFORE you flash the ROM because there are instructions within the thread that tell you the exact steps to do and to avoid so that you don't wipe your data. I know, because I took the time to search for the threads, and read both threads ENTIRELY. I followed the directions and had a pre-rooted LC1 installed in only a few minutes. I didn't loose any data or apps. I was also a Noob to Samsung at the time.
If that sounds too hard for you, then you should leave your Note on the ROM it is on right now and wait for the OTA updates.

i end upp rooting with Bodivas pre rooted stock LC1..
Now i have 2 more questions wich i yet have no answer for wich are these,
1: If i Only root, and dont install a new kernel ...
Will i be able to make future fota uppdates ? from Samsung..And will the root still remain.
Im fr Sweden with LC1
2: If i Change the kernel to get CWM and get some kind of a Total backup! Since it seems that it cant be done by Titanium?!
Will i still be able to get new stock uppdates by kies? and will the Root still be there?
I was planing to install the kernel you rekomended
CF-Root-SGN_XX_OXA_LC1-v5.3-CWM5.zip
With mobile Odin.
So lets see what happens.. But damn with a rooted phone it feels nice to be able to controll every thing and skipp adss and anoying unwanted startups..
1. Yes, no
2. Yes, no
For future updates, get the update here @ xda and flash with mobile odin which will persist root. Updates show up here as fast as they are released.

With a non stock kernel from a different rom then the stock rom you have, most likely not.

Easiest is to download stock rom, root it with just root only method
Best practice backup efs, Google it I will not explain you need do this only once and save backup later to computer.
Backup with titanium pro, and perform backups on kies. All you need to do to keep your info.
No custom kernels and remain ota able, and ultimately when ICS comes you remain upgradeable as it will not come OTA but though Kies
-> hmm, I lost my ability to upgrade thought Kies. Even with stock ROM. So be carefull whichever way you go. You can always upgrade thought a stock firmware ROM, you just might loose upgradability thought Kies. Also note, upgrading throught Kies will remove root in I think all instances.

Hi everyone, I have not been on here for a long time.
been getting bored with my phone lately and decided to come on here and see whats new.
So.... I'm still not rooted and noticed alot of people which are rooted are now using jellybean.
Is it worth me rooting so that i can get the jellybean or just stay on 4.0.4 and wait for it to be released?
Im based in london, UK if that info is needed.
if it's worth the root, any chance someone on here could guide me in the right direction to rooting my galaxy note and then the right direction in getting the jellybean.
the main reason i want to root now, is that im bored with my phone's setup.
I want to have a complete change, different home page, different call setup ect ect.
So... any help would be really appreciated. :good:

CM10 is not stable enough yet (most JB ROMs have memory leaks and you have to restart your phone nearly every day), so if you need a reliable phone, ie. for work, study, etc, I'd suggest staying on ICS.
Also remember that all these JB ROMs are based on Cyanogenmod and not on Touchwiz, so if you need the Samsung apps (FM Radio, S Note) you will have to look for alternatives.
Other than that, the JB ROMs I tried have been really nice in my experience, Google Now and the offline voice recognition make the other issues really easy to forgive.
Root in general is worth it for a number of reasons, among them CF 3D, Google Now on ICS, etc. etc.
With Google Now available on ICS there is no real reason to jump the gun to JB imo
Check my signature....jellycore worth a try....

+1. If you want to jump ship to JB roms, just be prepared to reflash updated roms once a week (minimum).
Else, stick with ICS roms, and wait until all JB issues been sorted out by the community.

I'm not stupid, so you wont need to worry about me asking question after question, i'll simply do whatever you tell me to do.
just need links sent to me to whatever it is i need to download ect ect.
first of all bud, you don't need any kind of online tutorials thru skype... tell you what you need to do.. simple tidbits that might get you going to flash your desired JB onto your device...
1.) Search for the most appropriate JB ROM that you like (scan to all the respective JB threads on our beloved Note's forum to choose which one you like best and fits your style).
2.) Once you have the idea on what JB ROM you would like to flash... here's the tricky part... type this on one of your browser's tab.... www.youtube.com.... in the search area field... type 'How to flash 'NAME OF YOUR JB ROM' to galaxy note... I'm sure there are video tutorials made appropriately for the JB ROM of your choice...
Good luck bud... again, it doesn't take a rocket scientist to understand and know the art of flashing.... it just takes one INITIATIVE and the rest, a bit of luck, a bit of prayer and bit of fate.
You can do it, I know you can!

Hi mate, did you get your rooting issue sorted? If not, the best one I found (and then used!) was Max at rootgalaxynote.com. Open the webpage and there is a tab at the top for Galaxy Note Root. He even puts a video "walk through" on. You can do it without using a PC, merely downloading 3 or 4 zip files then flashing as per his tutorial. It takes minutes and honestly, it really couldn't be simpler.
Good luck, please feel free to message me.

Thanks so much for that link, I had a look through it, and it seems straight forward, the fact i dont even need to use my computer is amazing.
BUT... what is the difference between this root and the other 1 which everyone else has done, using odin?
also, if i use this way, is it easy to install different roms?
Can anyone confirm if I can do this easy root method and then install a rom of my choice? Or is it not as easy as that?
I can definitely manage to follow the steps in the video, just wondered what i'll need to do next to get a rom.

Rooting and flashing ROMs aren't hard. I don't know how you've gotten root, if you havent, then first flash cfroot kernel according to your firmware, once you're rooted, flash a safe kernel first e.g, Hydracore, speedmod, through CMW and from those kernels you can flash ROM of your choice through the recovery.

Hello,
I have an htc one from o2. I want to root it to google edition. Iam a noob at this so can someone show me the way or links to a tutorial please.
Is it worth doing? whats the advantages of a rooted phone? sorry for the questions but i have come from iphone to android so iam new to all this.
thanks
My advice is keep studying, install the sdk and get good at adb and comfortable! Once you're ready and able use a guide for your phone and read it a couple times before you start. Most importantly don't stop any operations you attempt in mid stream follow through and don't reboot until you know it's all good. Hope it's as fun for you as it was for me.

thanks for that, but that means nothing to me.Whats the advantages etc. Is it worth it. i can follow tutorials etc. just need to know what the best guide is etc
If you don't know what the advantages of a rooted phone are and what root means, why are you trying to do it? To be honest I don't even understand your post - do you want to root your rom, have a rooted google edition rom or fully convert to a google edition phone?

First off, you don't need to be rooted to flash a custom rom - all you need is a custom recovery after you unlock your bootloader. A good guide for noobs to read is the one by mike1986 here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2265618
If I were you, I'd stick to just flashing a google edition rom to see if you like it, rather than doing a full conversion. This way you can easily get back to stock. This rom is 4.3 Google edition and already rooted:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2341395
Read the guide above carefully though. Especially the parts about backing up stock, or you'll be back here later asking for help..

When in 4.1.2 root your phone, after root flash the custom rom 4.3 you will not have the new bootlaoder and will not have issues on knox things.
But if I'm you I will wait for Galaxy S5 coming on March or April I think.

Thanks Bro that was my expected answer.. and one thing i saw some thread state that internal sd should be format and if not there would be some file/folder error.... so when i flash 4.3 is there anything else i do??
No, for real. Just flash ANY custom 4.3 rom over your 4.1.2 (custom roms don't contain bootloader) and you are ready to go/use
This way, I had no problems... And I've been flashing my phone TONES of times ;p
