root didnt worked for me so whats wrong

Try http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1535025
Easiest to get root IMHO.
After that, install Mobile Odin to flash custom kernel and you will get CWM.

Hi,
Used odin to flash a kernel (speedmod 2.8) then install super user from play and etc (mobile odin and titanium backup)
when you use odin you will get yellow triangle and the flash counter will grow but i is no a problem coz' ICS is just around the corner, so you can eventually reset flash counter in ICS
Hope I helped
Cheers

Have a look here too... Just flash using pc Odin.

It is a fair assumption that everything you need is in another thread..
If you have tried a method stated in another thread, then post in that thread if it failed... then your fix will be recorded for posterity and perhaps the thread OP changes the initial post to provide better/improved instructions for other users. This aspect is VERY important to the smooth running of the forum and the main reason why 50 individual threads on unroooting, the content of which are covered elsewhere, essentially render the search function useless.
if you just up and did something without guidance from another thread i suggest you go to square one and visit..

[Q] Root XXLA6 question

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!

[Q] if compatible

hello mates...
it is compatible to root the LC1 GB..?

Root Stock ICS ROM
This method works on the released ICS rom from Germany and I would expect it to work for the rest of the ICS roms due for release..
This method does not increase the binary counter or causes a yellow exclamation mark
Rooting
Download the Files first and put in your SDCARD [CWM zip][ SU-Busybox-Installer.zip][ SU-Uninstaller-signed.zip]
Reboot to recovery.
Choose apply update from external storage.
(Touch the screen as if you are using the phone to choose the options)
Choose CWM.zip and wait until CWM recovery appear.
[*]Choose install zip from sdcard or external SD

Yes...i want to root the lc1 by this procedure...its posible or not....

You should follow the instructions in the other pinned thread from Dr. Ketan.
This one here is for ICS.
If you are on a LC1: Download Mobile Odin Pro and the LC1-kernel from Chainfire's thread and install the extracted zImage with it.
I do this all the time before installing a new ICS ROM.
But again: read the above thread and the instructions carefully.

Thanks..but my note is revive from hardbrick..it now loss 3gigabyte...
My worried is downgrading via odin pc...
Its possible to encounter again to hang on to factoryfs?

1. you bricked your device already - so I think it's ok to assume you didn't really read the warning threads how to flash in a save way.
2. you want to do it again - because it's obvious you didn't read or understand what is written there
3. I really like to help, but here I'm getting afraid to give hints. Please read the pinned threads in the development forum and follow the instructions there.
"downgrading": Odin doesn't know wether you want down- or upgrading. More interesting: downgrading from LC1 to what version?

You're quite special, aren't you? Expecting an answer after that statement.
LC1: I use stock LC1 (with PC Odin) and after that I install CF Kernel with Mobile Odin Pro for rooting and permanent CWM. Then I install Abyss Kernel from CWM as base for new ICS Roms.

Reply:
I did read some threads but i was not able to find an excat answer to the question.
I tried it once but ended up messing my fone to a level that i had to take it to the service center.
The guys from service center replaced the board and put 4.0.3 lq2 which was for the region UK/Ireland.
I want to be sure this time before i did an update.
I was able to find a thread from dr ketan which said that i had to shift to shift to GB before i could flash 4.0.4 from 4.0.3
Please assist!!!!

Dr ketans thread has all the info you need if you read it thoroughly. It's a simple job but you won't get a walk through, just read till you understand and then flash with pc Odin. Nuff said.

If you have never done it before (or once but failed), I suggest you read and google / search more about how to do it manually without OTA / Kies.
Especially if you want to install the latest LRQ. A lot of websites are giving advice to do a full wipe on the installation of LRQ, eventhough some users are succeeded in flashing without wiping.
And in order to do a full wipe, you will need to use a safe kernel on your device (which need rooting first), or if you do not want to root your device, you will need to go back to GB rom first and do a full wipe on GB rom, then flash the LRQ from ODIN.
WARNING : Do not do full wipe with ICS stock kernel and/or non-safe ICS custom kernel !
For LRQ thread : Click here, and read carefully !
There are some reply referring on how to flash this ROM also (under page 8) if I'm not wrong.
But sit "relaxly", and read carefully before you do anything to your phone, since you don't want to brick it again, right ?

ya..
dr. ketan is the best for rooting/unrooting, and all other thing for flashing :good:
I always refer back to his method, and always work, since my Galaxy-S time.

root, make efs backup safe multiple locations
Wipe/factory reset only on safe kernel recovery and you are good to go flashi g what you want.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1841288 for root
toolbox thread dr ketan for backup efs

I would just root using that flashable zip that chainfire created using stock recovery, then use mobile odin to flash 4.0.4 thats the easiest way i can think off.

Here is complete guide which you need to follow

How to change to my local Rom (solved)

My experience is with Motorola HTC huawei. I have never owned a Samsung before and I am a little confused. I rooted my note and it currently has an advanced recovery and I deleted some apps I never use. The image attached should tell you guys what it is at the moment. I would like to install the Bangladesh version ics Rom for the note but I'm not sure how to go about it.
1. How do I flash the Rom. Do I flash like I did with my HTC and Motorola.
2. Would I lose root in the process?
3. If and when Samsung releases jb for note would I be able to update ota?
4. What is odin why do I need it and what's flash count?
5. I don't like aosp or aokp roms. What Rom should I move to eventually?
6. If I flash a Rom will I lose everything from the internal sdcard?

1.
I never use HTC and Motorolla smartphone, but in samsung, you can use ODIN (you can choose ODIN PC, or Mobile ODIN).
For mobile ODIN, you can use the lite version free (from google play), or you can purchase the mobile ODIN pro. But mobile ODIN can only be use if you are rooted.
Otherwise, ODIN PC would be a good choice (if yours not rooted, or do not intend to purchase mobile ODIN pro).
You may refer to this thread (by dr. Ketan). Read properly on how to flash your Note, once you understand, you may proceed.
2.
If you are rooted already, and you flash by ODIN PC, yes... you will be unroot again, and go back to stock kernel.
if you use mobile ODIN, you can keep the root by choosing keep root option(but in some cases, root also gone). But don't worry, if your root gone in the process, you can always root back your device, using this thread (by dr. Ketan again). All credits goes to him, I only provide you the link.
3.
When sammy will release ? no news yet. I only know soon. But I believe it should be after the release of Note 2 in all countries, only then we will receive the OTA for JB on our N7000.
For OTA updates, I'm not so sure if you are able to do it perfectly when your device is rooted. I have never done the update from OTA / or even Kies so far. I always use ODIN.
4.
ODIN is a tools to help you to flash firmware / kernel / csc. It's an optional tools in case you want to flash firmware from other countries. Or when you want to change kernel, but your device is not rooted, or when you want to flash just the CSC files.
Flash count is the binary counter, it's like a protection to Samsung, so they will know whether you flash custom ROM / kernel onto your device or not, and if yes, how many times. Normally when your binary counter up, Sammy will void your warranty.
But don't worry, there's a tool to remove by using this thread (Triangleaway, by Chainfire).
Binary counter is up when you (edit : flash custom kernel via ODIN PC). When you flash original firmware (from any countries), using ODIN PC, it won't up your binary counter, as it is considered as official ROM from Samsung.
5.
You can use TW ROM.
6.
It is always good to move your important data to external SD card first. and/or you can backup first before you flash anything onto your device.
But my understanding, your internal SD card won't be affected eventhough you do a full wipe, unless you format it. :fingers-crossed:
Lastly,
Just a gentle reminder, DO NOT do any full wiping under original ICS stock kernel / recovery. You want to wipe, please flash a safe kernel first.
Choice of safe kernel = you can find it here, a thread summarize by Chasmodo.
Hydracore, Philz, and speedmod is proven to be safe (as they have removed the eMMC brick bug).
Please read all carefully before flashing.
Good Luck!

This was a very detailed and helpful reply. Thank you for taking the time to help me. Just one little question.
With Samsung people don't flash custom roms via recovery? People use odin? Or can it be done both ways?

Custom ROM normally flashed by recovery.
Normally you can only flash a Custom ROM after you have rooted your device.
ODIN only use to flash official firmware / CSC from samsung.
or to flash custom kernel.
anyway, if you are really new to this note, I suggest you to do more research and reading, especially on dr. Ketan thread.
He really helps us a lot here with his thread.
Only when you are confident and sure about the step, then you may continue. A lot ppl don't want to read carefully, and end up in bricking the device. (I was one of them when first time having this note). After bricking then I start to learn from scratch, read more post and thread.
u should do the other way around, read more, confident, then do.
Good Luck!
