Did not go to PC Odin yet .. I wanted to flash a safe Kernel .. then wipe stuff.. then install Paranoid Android v0.5 (ICS)...
Wanted to understand why i can not flash a kernel ...

You can't flash a kernel in recovery without being rooted. In fact you shouldn't be messing with recovery if you are running ICS. just flash the kernel with ODIN PC and then use triangle away to reset counter. Stock recovery just flashes official updates and files.

humm.. I though i can flash a Kernel without problem... and then Wipe and flash a Custom ROM
i do know that I should not do a wipe while I am on stock ICS Kernel (will be BRICK)

Best and Safest Way to Flash Paranoid Android
Flash Stock GB via Odin Pc
Wipe Cache/Dalvik
Root Device/Install CWM
Reboot Recovery
Flash PA
Flash Gapps
Do All 3 Wipes
Reboot
This method is for a clean install and with this you can be sure of the quality and performance of ROM you are installing, No FC's / SOD's
Shortcut :-
CWM Recovery
Flash Abyss 4.2
Reboot Recovery
Flash PA
Flash Gapps
Do All 3 Wipes
Reboot System
Hope it helps

you will need a custom recovery first...that is why u usually flash the custom Kernel (that includes CWM) in ODIN PC. then, when u are rooted you can use mobile Odin...

Thanks guys.. I did not want to go the full process hence wanted to try this method..
anyway I waited and then went through the know .. Foolproof safe method .. The GB way...
Am on PA 0.5 now ..

[Q] Note Root problems (After yellow triangle)

My note is 2.3.6 , N7000LA2, now kernel is XXKKA,
I am not an expert, so I rooted in a wrong way then causing yellow triangle, But i removed the triangle finally
Actually I want to flash andriod 4.0 / other ICS theme rom, what procedure I should do now??
1. Is my note not a correct kernel now??
(I feel that the battery consumed faster than before, & not as smooth as than before getting yellow triangle)
2. Can I use a regular way (using odin to root back the right kernel & flash rom)?
3. my cwm mgr is not working correctly, how should i do??
Please advise ..
Many Many many thanks!
Do you have root working now?
If yes, update CWM, you can get proper kernel from my thread 'How to Root'(c signature for link)
after that you can update to any ROM with CWM

Thank you so much!
My colleague's fd finally helped me flash a new kernel ([email protected]#3)
But I have some questions
1) which version is this kernel??
2) can i keep this kernel , then flash another 4.0 rom??
3) if i dont want to use odin (pc version) to flash, can i use mobile odin or cwm to flash?
what exact procedure i have to do?
please advise..
thanks !!!
this is abyssnote kernel, universal
you can use CWM to update 4.0 ROM, put file on SD card n boot in recovery.
select flash zip file, point to ROM file, confirm it by saying ye, done.
if get bootloop, wipe cache, wipe data (it will wipe off data so take backup b4 proceeding)
dr.ketan , really thanks for your prompt reply
but I am now in another bad situation..
I flashed something wrong & the note keep rebooting, & then now cannot get in the system , just stop at the N7000 welcome page,
But i can go to CWM recovery
get into recovery, wipe cache, wipe delvic cache
still not works wipe data (you will lose data) This is routine for 4.0 based ROM
And wat u mean by 'something wrong', you are not sure it was custom ROM file?
If nothing works then go to download mode n flash older Stock ROM with PC odin

Thanks dr.ketan!
But it is not 4.0 based rom yet, just a 2.3.6, official rom (before "broke" )
So, should i still follow your method to do??
or should i get into recovery, try to flash the stock rom N7000OZSLA2 ?
I think i flashed the wrong version:

Now you can flash to la2 with CWM n keep cf-root when ask
Or use mobile odin n enable everroot option in mobile odin n flash

Thank you so much ketan!
I got LA2 n keep the cf-root now!
One thing I want to ask :
Is any roms to flash can follow the below procedure?
or which situations cannot follow this procedure:
Thanks.
2. CWM recovery (you need Root + CWM on existing ROM. Get )
Download the ROM. Extract it.
Create folder /sdcard/external_sd/firmware (thats folder "firmware" (lowercase) on your external SD card) (see image)

This is for Stock ROM only
If you want to flash custom rom, u have to select flash zip option, not 'flash stock firmware' option

[q] installing cwm recovery and cm9 on sgt p1000 india

Hi Everyone,
I have the Samsung galaxy p1000 tablet which is rooted and running stock firmware version 2.3.3 ....i have rooted it using doomslord toolkit....
.....I want to install cm9 on my tab....but i want to make sure everything is good before i start doing anything.......
i tried downloading overcome but download stopped everytime.......
i have downloaded overcome kernel 4.0.0.tar though.....
i want clockwork mod recovery on my tab.....how can i do that?
i am on stock firmware so do i need to restock it through overcome......or flashing the overcome kernel would do it all....
should i flash the overcome kernel only......is it feasible to use that kernel for stock firmware.....will the kernel convert tab into ext4 thereby making it possible to flash cm9
please help me over this......
Thanks..
I did that before, flash the kernel, wait for the conversion to ext4, reboot and flash cyanogen mod. For me it worked for installing AOKP mtd.
Sent from my GT-P1000 using XDA
Thanks salahmed......but one more question...was ur stock firmware rooted when u flashed the kernel cause that's what is bothering me...and how do i return to my original device clean firmware once i am using cm9....
Thanks once again...
Sent from my GT-P1000 using XDA
You can always restock using overcome stock safe.
Sent from my GT-P1000 using XDA
I have some free time today and so i will flash the rom today.....
Are these the steps i should follow???
1. Flash the overcome kernel only without restocking....
2. let it convert the system into ext4....and let it reboot after it...
3. Then shut down the tab and press volume down and power buttons at the same time till the clockworkmod recovery shoots up....
4. Then navigate to ' install from zip' and select AOKP BUILD 37(decided to flash AOKP) zip file....let it flash and then flash kernel(which kernel should i flash????? or does the AOKP zip contain it and hence it should be automatically flashed)
5. Then flash gapps.....
6. when it's done ....reboot
questions....
when should i wipe dalvik cache and data( before flashing AOKP zip or after that)
?????
also i read somewhere that i can revert back to original samsung firmware by flashing original samsung firmware via odin with "repartion checked".....
After flashing overcome kernel go to recovery wipe cash, dalvic cash, factory reset format data, then flash AOKP, the kernel is included 'z image' , then reboot system let it to complete booting, then reboot recovery again and flash gapps.
And that's right you can revert back with re partition but I did not try it.

Stuck at Samsung Logo : Can you flash a kernal via Odin?

The GN I bought recently was already rooted with official UK ICS and Franco kernal on it.
Without me trying to flash or do anything, a simple reboot now won't boot past the Samsung logo.
I've reflashed the UK official ICS rom in Odin, but that did not solve the problem.
I thought I'd try to flash the Franco kernal, but I think I need to put it on to an SDcard and flash via recovery.
The problem is, I don't have an SDcard.
So can a kernal be flashed via Odin? (Do you even think this is worth trying?)
You can only flash a kernel.tar via odin. If it is kernel.zip you have to flash it using CWM.
If you can get into CWM you can mount usb storage to PC and copy file to it.
Sometime CWM see sdcard as internal sdcard so you need to check both.

You cannot flash any kernel through Recovery, because you are unrooted after flashing a stock ICS Rom.
However, you could flash a custom ICS kernel via PC Odin (CF-Root or Speedmod tar). You will get the triangle, but that is easily removed by using new Triangle Away.
OK, I flashed Speedmod, and now I have the warning triangle (Dont care!), and I can get into CWM recovery.
It's still not booting past the Samsung logo. Is it now safe to wipe data/Factory reset?
OK, thanks for your help, guys!!
I'm now unstuck.
(A wipe data/Factory reset from CWM fixed)
You did a factory wipe from ICS kernel ......

Using franco kernal / CWM
I read in the franco kernal thread that is was safe to do so. is this not the case? It seems OK, but have I actually damaged something?
I tried REALLY hard not to screw this up.

Hi harris,
Can you flash gb thru stock odin? of course you can... is it safe? yes it is.
I think the rule of law in flashing any custom roms, just to be in a safe side, is to always downgrade first to stock GB and work your way up in flashing whatever custom rom you would like to flash your phone to.
By the way, don't forget to wipe data once your already in stock GB (before upgrading again to whatever custom rom your going to flash)

thanks alot.:cyclops:
sounds like you just need to flash a kernel, i have had this issue before something with the kernel screws up and doesnt boot
Just put your phone in download mode and flash a custom kernel via pcodin. That will be okay. or if its not you have to flash a GB rom using PC Odin. Remember to do wipes after flash

after flashing a safe kernel or after you gone to GB (whichever is the case),yes you can go to CWM and wipe data from there.
Flash prerooted gb rom and wipe cache,delvic cache n data
Not necessary immidiately wipe, most probably you will face force closes on bootup.after flash, nothing to worrt, it will b solved with wipes.
Once evrything fine.after wipe, you can proceed to next step with cwm if you want to flash.custom rom, or with mobile odin if you want to flash stock ROM.

[Q] JB to GB downgrade failure?

So, this is what happened. I first upgraded to the latest official JB 4.1.2 XXLSA firmware. I noticed that it still wasn't as fast as I'd like, and wanted to try a custom ROM instead. I read through the guides in here and get that I have to downgrade to a GB ROM first in order for me not to hardbrick my phone. So, I download "N7000XBKK4 ------ 2.3.6 2011 November------- N7000OXXKK5--------------------- Nordic countries" from that list over stock ROM's in the Q&A root guide here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424997 . I follow the flashing guide to the letter, puts my phone in download mode, runs the flash via Odin, the phone restarts, and everything goes south. Basically this happens: When I start my phone it get's to the point in the GB initial startup where I'm to touch the Android to start, but then all it does is throw messages at me about this service and that service having stopped responding, untill the phone reboots. So now I have reflashed back to the JB ROM.
So basically, what am I doing wrong, and what can I do to make a proper downgrade so I can get rooted, install CWM and get down and get it on with some custom ROM's?
Thx in advance!
Same happened with me. I flashed GB and was getting force close messages. But not a big problem. Just flash GB rom again. And after flashing just delete all user data from recovery and reboot. U wont get those messages any more.

You always need to WIPE data / factory reset after downgrading from JB .. GB is safe to go ahead.. if you choose ICS then first flash a safe kernel and then do wipe
It seems to me that KK5 is non wipe, which explains why you got those messages. The rest is detailed in nokiamodeln91's message BTW, JB is still not official for our Notes. What you installed was a leak with a safe kernel (if it was Philz).

Exactly.
I had this issue too when downgrading to GB. Wipe Cache and Dalvik and you should be ok from then on.
Wow. A lot of replies in just a single day. You guys are awesome
Now you say that the KK5 is non-wipe. Are there any GB-roms which are wipe, so to speak? Or do I have to do the flash to GB, enter recovery, wipe cache partition and do wipe/factory reset, then reboot into a now working phone, set up for root with USB and so forth, root and install CWM, copy the custom ROM to my SD-card (gonna go for ParanoidAndroid) as well as Google services if I want those, and then install them via CWM/Mobile Odin?

GB LC1 is wipe. But if you want PA (which is an excellent choice) just flash a CM10 kernel in your recovery (if your recovery is safe, like GB for example). Then follow Utacka's instructions for the installation.
But if I want CWM I should do root and install CWM there? And then flash the custom ROM from CWM?

The CM10 kernel comes with its own recovery where you can flash from. If you have root issues, just flash CWM-SuperSU-v0.99.zip. In any case don't flash from stock ICS with CMW.zip: if you are on ICS and not rooted flash the relevant Philz kernel (which is safe and will give you root and CWM) then the CM10 kernel.
Edit: what ROM do you have now?
I use the 4.1.2 XXLSA ROM
Btw, anyone knows where I can download the Google Services Framework so I can install it alongside Paranoid Android? I have been led to believe it's not included as per default
Thx for all the replies!!
If you have downloaded the xxlsa rom then it's inside the rom zip file. Path system/app/GoogleServicesFramework
