Need a noob-friendly instruction - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Dear professionals and gurus, I want you to help me solve a simple problem. I know it may seem to be a stupid question but just do not throw rotten tomatoes at me. Since the birth of my device, I used the original stock ROMs only. It did not even feel the smell of extraneous stuff such as root,shmoot and more. I never did it and am not going to. At least so far. All the way up was GB 2.3.6 -- ICS 4.0.3 (OTA) -- 4.0.4 LRK (XEU) OTA. It currently runs on 4.0.4. What I want now is to get back to GB. So,please give a simple, detailed, step by step, noob-friendly instruction of how to downgrade to stock GB without any bad aftermath like yellow triangle.
P.S. Yes, I DID read dr Ketan's thread

If you read dr ketans thread it is mentioned there that you can revert back to GB by using a stock rom and flash via pc odin.
No, you wont get that yellow triangle.

Download a gb rom according to your region here in the firmware section
Download Odin (from any thread in xda)
Once downloaded the firmware extract it and put it into the Odin folder
Download Samsung kies
Install Samsung Kies and connect your phone so it will install the drivers needed
Once done, close Kies, disconnect your phone from the computer and press all together volume down+power+home buttons until the phone gets into Odin mode.
Reconnect your phone to the pc and open odin, in Odin you should see a yellow square indicating it detected the phone.
Press the PDA button and select the file you downloaded from sammobile
Do not touch the Odin's check boxes
Press start
Done
Yellow triangles are for custom software and you are flashing official software so no triangle
If you downloaded a non wipe software probably it will go boot loops in that case disconnect all wires from the phone turn it off long pressing power and press all together volume up +power +home until it enter to recovery mode once there wipe user data and reboot.

Probably get a usb jig. Take your battery off.. Insert battery and connect jig. Your phone will boot into download mode. Then remove jig and connect your data cable and flash any stock Rom via odin

Go to this site http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/?page=3 and you will find Odin 1.85. Firmware for your country/region and flashguide. Register first, it`s free
It`s not so hard: download Odin 1.85, download the right firmware.
Put the firmware in PDA in Odin, close Kies and kies trayagent and PDLR in your windows toolbar (rightclick and go to taskmanager), put your phone in downloadmode, connect with computer and when you see ADDED in the left corner window of Odin and the the ID.com left upper window turns yellow press start and flash and let it boot.

and i have the same problem... stuck on the SGN7000 screen with yellow triangle. ALSO can't get into recovery mode...
Hence, i was told to use odin1.85 to flash back the stock rom.... during the progress... it stuck on factoryfs.img
have did some battery pull for 5-10mins, use different pc, different usb cable... also no use.
Does that means i need to pay samsung to restore back for me?
Hello guys, even I am stuck factoryfs.img when trying to flash stock ROM.
I bricked my phone trying to install rocket ROM ICS.
I am using PC ODIN and LA5 firmware, I tired KL3 too, but no luck. I am just stuck at around 95% with odin saying flashing factoryfs.img.
PLEASE HELP
If you are able to enter recover, wipe cache, wipe delvic cache, wipe off data
then reflash
I am not able to enter into recovery. Only download mode is working, but when trying to flash the stock rom, it is stuck at factoryfs.img.

Not specific, you select any different, n as balok said connect directly to usb port, n close if antivirus running. Better download rom without antivirus, some time antivirus can cause problem, if any component of rom falsely consider as trojan.

Easiest way is
If you are able to get into download mode
1. Flash Stock ROM with PC odin
2. get root N install ICS base custom ROM
3.Use triangle away to reset counter
4 Back to Stock ROM

Hi dude here is the message angelom sent to me its got the link to the Kernel Enjoy
So here is the link kernel that reset counter and remove yellow triangle:
http://www.mediafire.com/?5bmrc6cf81w5mya
Of course this is what I tried last night and it was fine (flashed over 10 times)
instructions:
It 'a tar file, then flashed it with Odin Pc
You need to have ICS, so if you tried to install GB with odin, you have to flash the Chinese leak ICS (always with odin)
Even if you flash the rom from error, after trying to install, always installs with odin the kernel, it usually also with your problem is successful.
Just you see that phone reboot (just odin gives you the message that the flash of the kernel has been successful) disconnect the usb cable and press once the keys to enter the recovery mode (Vol + + home + power) and keep them pressed until do not see the recovery.
You'll still have the yellow triangle.
When did you get into recovery (still touch CWM) touch on reboot
So, even if eventually the Rom should not start it for the problem of partitions, you'll see that the triangle is gone and the counter is reset.
Of course you do so at your own risk, given my experience after what has happened, I emphasize.

My Note updated with XXLPY now no google service or play store :S

I have update my Samsung Galaxy note n7000 from GB to ICS from phone not from KIES but right after update i can't access play store or any google services. I have factory restore my phone from both the option and 3 buttons restore from recovery. Now when i try to add google account its says can't establish network connection. I have tried to add account from Youtube but no success.
My current version is ICS 4.0.3
PDA:N7000xxlpy
Phone: N7000xxlpt
Csc: n7000oxxlp5
I am unable to log inn any of the account like facebook, youtube or chat, Even if i download the .apk from any other source its downloaded but its does not fetch download the from Internet.
I have checked the phone on many different router there is no problem in wifi connectivity.
While searching on google XXLPY is the culprit here and its the bad update which i got from the OTA now what to do next, i have reset my phone two or three time but all in vain or may be i am lucky that i don't get my device bricked
Dont reset while u r in ICS,for google account try to us ur data connection not ur wifi for adding account, it may work..

HALT!
You're on ICS - Stop messing about with Factory Resets / Recovery etc..
Downgrade to Stock GB via ODIN - Do your wipes - Make sure it's working in GB - Update to ICS / Flash a Stock ICS in ODIN..
Mobile network is not working too, can any one tell me how to downgrade it or is it safe to flash it with another kernel ??

yes many time i have used it on my Galaxy Ace but that was low end phone and i don't want to mess with this phone. Its all just because of OTA update from Samsung
My question is that should i have to flashed it with Gb first if yes then which region is safe to flash it with.
P.S i have ask a friend who has flashed it from ICS to ICS of different firmware by using abssyynote kernel :S
This is what my friend told me to do is it safe ?? or can be done in this way ??
i dont need to tell you that you have to be very careful in following these steps,
although i have tried them 5 times on 5 different notes successfully still mistakes can be dangerous so be careful and follow them to the letter and take your time to read before you start
also if you can do this with a laptop its better than a pc because if the electricity cut out it could mess up the phone. its safer to have a battery, btw just as i finished this line we had a black out here lol electricity cut off for the whole block
copy AbyssNotekernel42.zip and CWM.zip to the phone
power off the phone and take the battery out to make sure its off
power it back on holding volume up + home + power to go to recovery mode
choose install zip from sdcard
select the CWM.zip and choose yes install
you will get clock work mode interface then choose install update zip from sdcard again
select AbyssNotekernel42.zip and install it
power off and remove the battery and put it back
power on holding volume up + home + power to go to recovery mode again
this time it the abyss kernel recovery and it works with the touch screen
it is safe to do a factory reset from here so do it
then power off and remove the battery again and put it in
this time power on the phone with volume down + home + power to go to download mode
start Odin on the pc then connect the phone in download mode
click on PDA and then select the rom XXLPD file "N7000JPLPD_N7000OJPLP7_N7000XXLPT_HOME.tar.md5" and click start
when the phone restarts make sure the samsung logo apears then remove the battery so that it doesnt boot up
start the phone again in download mode volume down + home + power
select the speedmod kernel file and flash it to the phone same way you flashed the rom in PDA select "speedmod-kernel-n7000-ics-k3-11-Odin.tar" then click start
when the phone restarts again remove the battery after the samsung logo apears
power on the phone into recovery again for the last factory reset volume up + home + power
do the factory reset and reboot the phone
There are a few steps missing there. I would go to the link I posted above.
First download Odin 1.85 from link A. 1
Next download pre rooted GB from A.8 and flash it using Odin under pda
Then down load lpy open German 4.0.3 which you want from B.1 and flash in PDA using Odin.
That's it your done!
You comfortable with that?

Make sure that the custom rom you have use a kernel where the MMC_CAP_ERASE command is blocked. And if it wasnt blocked and you had done a factory reset or a wipe in the recovery then you might end up stuck in the odin when downgrading back to GB.
If its blocked then you can go ahead with the steps by sahil above.

You have to wipe data in case you face so issues. But as I was not aware of the process that ODIN flashed it successfully i can't advise you to wipe as ICS kernels are unsafe and can brick your device. Way to Go!!!

It was already on the GB kernel. I was at the setup screen when the problems happened. Sorry, I forgot to add that. I knew that you can't wipe data on an ICS kernel, when I flashed ROMs I would always flash abyss kernel and then wipe data, cache and dalvik cache, I just didn't know that it was this easy to go back to stock and unroot. Thank you so much for your help.
Wouldn't hold my breath for a stock ICS XSA (Australian) ROM, though.
ICS ROMs have been out for many regions since May, however still no sign of an Aussie one - I've been waiting as well.....

I have this problem before and i managed to use ODIN3 v1.83 (can use Odin3 v3.07) to detect my phone and flash a stock rom onto the device. I followed the advice given on this excellent thread by Supermini.

As mentioned on his thread make sure you have the latest stock firmware from the sammobile site or by using Check Fus Downloader as per the guide in Rafael thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1551156, a working samsung USB driver to detect your mobile on your PC and a copy of ODIN3 v1.83 (or v1.84, v1.87, v3.07 run ODIN in administrator mode if using in windows). Ultimately if this this fails you could always try a USB jig which can be purchased from ebay, etc. to get the phone into download mode.
Good luck and if this helps make sure you send a thank you to Supermini.

So . . . last thing to rescue your phone is buy on e-bay or in other place JIG if it isn't help you then try in phone service and say you tried install new ROM with Kies and your phone is brick (maybe it'll work).
Say to Service Centre Representatives that you kept your at charging last night
And when you woke up
It was not booting up
Pretend as if you dunno anything about root or ROM
They fixed my bricked phone
I am not sure if I am breaking any forum rule by telling this
Hey bro sorry for the late reply also, please before you do anything else try following my instructions.
1) download Odin v3.07
2) source the stock firmware you want to flash from sammobile.
3) make sure you have the Samsung mobile driver.
4) open and run Odin as administrator and load the single file in the PDA and highlight the tick box.
5) shut the phone down and take out your Sim card.
6) put the mobile into download mode as normal (press both up/down vol keys +power)
7) connect the phone to the PC and check in Odin to make sure its com port is detected.
8) then flash through Odin as normal.
I understand what your saying about no download screen appearing, I have found through experience that custom kernels can cause no download screen to appear. Normally with stock kernel this is not a problem but with custom kernels sometimes all you get is a black screen. Ignore this and just make sure that Odin is detecting the phone and try to flash, chances are it will flash the stock ROM and kernel. If you get the setup connection error in Odin and the fail 0\1 just try another USB port on your PC and keep persevering.
Please keep us updated so we can help you if you need it.

Why will it be hardbricked if the custom roms are based on s5830i stock roms?
But it is probable that we did I not flash the rom properly as per procedure..so is there a chance that it be bricked? Else the rom may have some problem... just telling the probability

Follow this and don't worry about black screen just make sure Odin detects your PC com port.
