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.

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

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??

Hey,
I recently bought SGN and wanted to update to Kingdroid's custom ROM and so i did !.
My SGN was on Ginger bread 2.3.6,what i did was,
1.Root Note(ginger bread with Odin by following Dr.Ketan's guide)
P.S-i did the exact same thing as he mentioned in his guide.
2.Installed later CWM on recovery mode
3.Installed Abbys kernel..(rebooted to recovery later)
a.clear userdata/factory reset.
b.wipe cache
4.Installed Notemania v5.0
Now,the problem is,first time the installation process completed,BUT it did not install the complete thing i.e CAMERA icon was missing,Touchwiz5,and many more apps were missing.
So later i decided to overwrite by reinstalling the mod again.
1.i booted into recovery mode
2.WIPE DATA,CACHE
3.selected install zip from sdcard/notemania v5.0
after selecting install,the installer stopped its progression @ 80%(mounting system ,rootfs) and lagged for almost an hour,i rebooted into recovery mode and rebooted device and it booted,,BUT the installation dint not reach 100%.
STILL camera app was missing and many more.
ive tried installing/overwriting many times(like 10).. its stuck up @ 80%.. i even tried Notemania 4,4..no use, lags @ 80%.
How do i finish the installation and install the COMPLETE ROM PACKAGE(with camera app)?>>>>
Requesting help!! Sorry my first android,so Noob

i have a question
1.How can i get back to Unrooted stock ICS rom now?
To go back to stock unrooted ICS, you can flash stock ICS via PC Odin. Since you already know how to safely wipe using Abyss, you can do full wipe in Abyss before putting your phone into download mode and use PC Odin.

I tried various versions of the ROM, but this is the mentioning of the most versatile and best. We recommend warmly.

Yes, that's the recommended steps to safely and cleanly install stock ICS.
Just remember that full wipe in stock ICS is dangerous.

Reading the sticky threads with the warnings and tutorials might be the real "ToDo" (if you didn't do this before).
In posts like these here you only get short answers. They include the risk that you do not really understand what the poster meant.
There have been many posts here from members bricking their devices because they didn't invest a little bit time in reading.
I 'invest' a little bit time of answering
Sometimes some people like to reassure themselves by asking confirmation from others..like a second opinion, you know...
So,for getting back onto stock ICS i dont need to involve abbyss or any other kernels right??
just,odin, and 2 stock roms and wipe userdata?

Just read this post from Dr. Ketan for installing stock ICS ROMs.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424997
Before installing any custom ROMs/Kernel, you need to read & re-read the instructions carefully. Any missed step will make your device nothing more than a paperweight. Also do read the stickies in the forum for flashing/rooting, etc., it will help you & also you may be able to help someone like yourself by pointing in the right direction.
As Kopitalk told, do not wipe when on ICS. Always be on a safe kernel (GB based preferred) first.
Hi,
I' in trouble with my note. It stucks at samsung logo animation and i cant make it boot to ics anymore (i'm on stock 4.03 ics rom)
This is what happend : i played/bench beetween gl_notecore kernel v9.x/v10.x and chainfire 3D driver install/uninstall, all was fine and suddenly my phone freezed at ics homescreen after a soft reboot (OC or whatever make it freezed).
So i hard reboot it by pressing power button 10 sec, and now, it dont full boot anymore.
I tried to flashed many kernel through cwm onboard kernel stuff (notecore/speedmod..), tried wipe cache, tried to flash stock rom (N7000XXLQ3_N7000XXLPT_N7000XEFLP1_HOME.tar.md5) throught odin but result is same. Phone is indefinitly show samsung animation logo screen without finally boot into ics.
I dont know if chainfire 3d driver is the guilty one but fresh rom flash dont unbrick it ?
What's my solution now ? i didnt tried to full wipe before flashing stock rom and i'd prefer not. but...
thanks for your help :good:
To be on safe side i would try to flash a stock gb rom first then move to ics later. Flash gb stock from dr.ketan thread then go into recovery and wipe ....then it should boot.

Flash it using PC Odin. If your phone stuck at bootscreen logo or you face any issues do a Wipe by going to recovery mode. (GB Kernels are safe to Wipe)
Now Check whether the issue is still there or not.
Gb flashed successfully, and phone boot normally.
But GB soft reboot a lot. Seems flashing gb over ics without a wipe make a mess in the rom =)
Going to wipe and flash ics back.
Tanks a lot !

Remember not to WIPE on ICS Stock Kernel. When you want to flash on Stock ICS remember to flash a safe kernel first like notecore/hardcore/etc
No matter, i'm aware of MMC_CAP_ERASE brick of the death
I will do like i did before. flashing notecore kernel through odin and triangle away
Edit : oh wait.. and i'll never install chainfire 3d again
Hi guys.. Is there anyway i can get back to stock rom from MIUI rom? i flash Dr.Ketan ics stock rom but got stuck at Samsung logo.. any help?
Did you wipe cache and dalvic? DO NOT WIPE DATA USING STOCK ICS/KERNAL
Maby you could try flashing pre rooted GB Rom from our Doctor and wipe data once on safe GB. That's a good startingpoint.
By the way,stock ICS is NOT safe to wipe data with so I hope you didn't.
Download the below rom and install it via pc odin. The don't boot up yet. First boot into recovery and the. do a wipe data factory reset and then boot up.

installing this kernel. will give u root, cwm. and is safe as well.

I'm using right now philz kernel and things are going very well really!
the point is i wanted to do a DEEP CLEAN of the phone.. and than install 4.0.4 LRQ stock and root it but stupid KIES doesn't recognize my phone anymore ( before was just working perfectly... )!!!
Would it work IF i ... copy the stock rom on my mobile..
reboot in recovery.. do the 3 wipes
restart recovery,,, (or maybe i don't even need to reboot..???)
flash the rom LRQ stock ?
or still i've first to install PHILZ kernel again?
little bit confused lol
if u want to clean install then go back to GB and then do a factory reset and format internal SD then download the stock firmware u want and install it via PC odin.. stock firmware comes in tar.md5 format. cwm wont be able to install it. u need odin or mobile odin
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).

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?
Godofmosquitos said:

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
