Did you full wipe? That's usually the cause of soft bricks.

No I didn't.. I only installed the rom ..

Ok. Don't worry. Use flashtool to go back to stock rom (search for the tutorial) or use pcc to repair your phone. Once that's done, you need to root your phone again. Do that, and install cwm.
Now go to recovery (cWm) and do a full wipe (wipe dalvick cache, battery stats, etc. too). Now flash gdx. Do a full wipe again (not sure if needed but i always do it this way for gdx) and reboot. Good luck.

Or if you can access xrecovery try to full wipe and install the rom..,that should work but I am not sure if you can install gingerdx with xrecovery,so next time use cwm

AFAIK GingerDX as of v02x requires ClockworkMod Recovery instead of xRecovery. Flashing with xRecovery will not work unless you're flashing an ancient version of GingerDX.

Flash back on stock using SEUS and after that do everything aggain. Try to use x8 tollbox, it will make your things easyer

1. Flash back to eclair
2. Unlock bootloader
3. Flash alfs kernel
4. Install Gingerdx

Good advice, check your baseband, it must end on "015", as stated in the tutorials.
Install GingerDX only via CWM.
Do a full wipe and then install the rom, it should work.

hi try flashing froyobread v021 as this will give you cwm as gdx will only install with cwm not x-recovery when you have installed froyobread reboot you x8. when you see the sony ericsson logo tap the screen repeatedly this will take you in to cwm now you can install gdx.v019
unlock bootloader
maybe try to unlock bootloader using msm7227_semc.cmd

back up your data -> go back to stock with SEUS or flash offline,,root again,install CWM,then flash the custom rom.

how to revert back to gb

im on criseklo rom and on notecore 10.6 kernel, and i did this without uaing a bloody pc nor a wifi, i wanna try cm9 since its highly customizable, is there any possibility i can revert to gb rom and kernel to flash cm9 roms without a pc,
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
As you are on a safe kernel just download cm9 and gapps put it into your sd card, reboot to recovery (cwn) wipe data/cache /dalvik cache flash cm9, then go to advanced options and reboot recovery once rebooted flash gapps and reboot system.. That's it no need to go back to gb

You can use Mobile ODIN Pro for the same. It does the job and doesn't cause Triangle on boot and doesn't cause count.
Just download GB Rom from dr ketans thread or www.sammobile.com and put it in your SD Card.
Open Mobile Odin.
Select the file in the column Open the file.
And Start Flashing. Remember to check for md5 checksum before flashing if it asks and Wipe Dalvik/Cache.
Done
Now you have Stock GB Rom on your Note.
Or
You can use Abyss Redpill Recovery Original Logo.(Reboot into CWM and flash Abyss 4.2)
Reboot Recovery
Now Full Wipe.
Flash cm9
Flash Gapps
Reboot System

Since you are on Custom ICS Rom its safe to wipe but Using Abyss 4.2 is the best way to install cm9. I have installed cm9 from safe kernel with ICS but does not recommend you as this will mess up (probably) .
Read if this can help you
For switching your existing ROM to GB ROM
here some modification
Download Prerooted ROM
and flash using Movile odin Pro
Here is guide how to use Mobile odin
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1816158
Note : You need not to change kernel in step mentioned above guide
Go directly from where you are without doing anything.
At end you will have Rooted GB ROM + CWM without using PC Odin.

It is still dangerous in that it's a sure brick. Need to install gb kernel with cwm to perform cm flashes, goes for cm10 also.

Need a bit help on custom time installing for note ics

Hi to all expertise,
I currently have a note with stock ics 4.0.4,
it use to be on gb 2.3.6,
I use Dr ketan method (thanks) to upgrade to ics 4.0.4,
by stock gb > install custom kernel to get cwm > wipe data > wipe cache > wipe del cache > install stock ics using odin > install cwm.zip at stock ics recovery > install super user to root
Now,
I heard that if u wipe data, wipe cache, wipe delcache on stock ics will brick your phone,
so,
I can't use cwm.zip to install custom rom,
am I right?
Can teach what way should I use to install a custom rom for ics?
Thanks in advance.

Stock gb > Use PC Odin to install stock ics > install custom kernel for ICS like Philz or hydracore using PC Odin (you will get CWM & root)
Once you instal custom kernel for ICS like Philz or hydracore, you are safe to wipe since these have the eMMC_CAP_ERASE disabled.
Restrict the use of CWM.zip.
if you are not rooted, use the Philz kernel, and install from stock recovery. It will autoroot your phone and its a safe kernel and has best CWM ever built
I did a root using the cwm.zip last time till now, can i direct use the method u said or do I need to do something else 1st? And after the kernel flash by ur method, I can direct flash custom time like cm 9, right?
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda app-developers app
i guess you are rooted as of today. Right ?
if yes what kernel are you on ? In on stock, immediately move to Philz kernel. you can use Mobile Odin to flash the kernel if rooted. if not then use the stock recovery.
After installing this kernel, you can directly flash any ROM you want
I'm still under root today, since that day using cwm.zip to root it.
My kernel is on stock ics LR2.
Baseband is LR1.
Can I direct use the stock recovery method to install this kernel u said, without unhooking the previous root?
Oh, and I didn't install mobile Odin since the day I rooted my note, just for reference.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda app-developers app
you can use recovery as well as mobile odin
whats your rom build... use it to find your kernel...http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1901191
Is dxlr2, right?
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda app-developers app
I have downloaded this from the link u guys shown,
PhilZ-cwm6-DXLR2-OLB-v2.7.signed.zip
Is the the correct kernel I need?
And so, I will following the step bellows even though I have done the root by using CWM.zip till now:
1.put the signed zip file to the root of extenal sd card.
2.go to stock recovery, not cwm.zip recovery.
3.flash safe kernel zip.
4.reboot.
5.all set to flash custom time.
Correct me if I'm wrong, tq .

As long as philz kernel zip, and u download the correct kernel for ur built in, there shld be no problem in flashing philz from stock recovery.

[Q] I need a dev for this problem.. it's weird!

Hi, so there is this thing:
I have the OB, and the soft buttons/softkeys/hardware buttons on the bottom DON'T work after reflashing to stock. So i re-rooted my device, and the buttons only work with a CM7 rom! the only way to run CM10 now, is by going into AOKP settings and choosing Navbar...
Please help me! is this a hardware or a software problem?? (because the buttons DO work inside cm7 roms? still not 100%, but almost 8 out of 10 times?)
Please take a moment to help me

BTW, durin Dalvik cache wipe i get an error saying something like: sd/ext not fount, while it IS in there. read somewhere else that this could not be the problem. Or can it be??

So you would say:
1. go into CWM, wipe everything
2. go into B2CApp (right?)
3. do an "emergency mode update" (don't know what it is in english, while i'm running dutch B2Capp)
and then it SHOULD work? otherwise it's a hardware issue?
go to CWM wipe everything n reflash a new rom...if den toh problem persists den use the smart flash tool and flash a rooted rom..!!
Sent from my LG-P970 using xda app-developers app
Flash a patched V20S with CWM, start it and make a factory reset FROM HIDDEN MENU.
That should work.
