Hello,
Hopefully I can get some help on this issue, I recently flashed AllianceROM from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1836453
The ROM itself works fine, but I'm facing an issue when trying to flash anything via CWM, it won't take any zip I throw at it, it just gets stuck on installing for a few minutes and then the phone restarts itself and it boots the same ROM, as if nothing happened. No errors, nothing.
I suspect I may have a partial root issue? or CWM is not properly installed?
if so, how should I go about fixing it? I read in some places they recommend downgrading to GB and then flashing ICS again, or is there something I can do on my current ROM to fix it?
If it helps, I'm running:
* Ficeto-Notecore V1.0 kernel
* Build Number AllianceROM ICS v2.1 XXLRG
Thanks a lot in advance,
Cheers,
Cris.
I fixed it,
In case anyone finds this in the future, here's what I did:
1. downloaded the latest notecore kernel from: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1749863
2. flashed through Odin
CWM works now.

Did already update your super su? Use root checker in google play if you really fully rooted.

I have the GT-N7000 Vodafone GR with XXLA6 Kernel.
I 've tried all methods I could find in XDA and/or on the Internet (zergRush, reverting in older stock ROM, reverting rooting and updating to latest ROM, ODIN, CRW etc)
All attempts that succeeded have resulted to one unstable Note; instability meaning that it reboots, repeatedly and uncontrollably, at any time it wishes, especially after a normal restart (power off or simple reboot). Or, in some cases, losing the 3G data connection and having to reboot to regain it.
I need root access for ad blocking and quick rebooting. I'm not really into overclocking or tweaking the device but I'd do it if possible without losing stability.
Any ideas how this can be achieved?
Thanks in Advance

I think, the only option to only get root is to downgrade your note to a rootable rom and then root it with zergRush.
Please let me know if you need further help.
Alternative and easier way for you to root your Note would be to flash using PC Odin one of the pre-rooted stock Roms.
After that download the corresponding CF-Root kernel (i.e. if you flashed LC1 Rom, download LC1 CF-Root kernel) and flash it through Mobile Odin to inject CWMR.
That's all.

Don't know about this thread Bookmarked it.
You can use this method 'cause it's the easier one.
I've tried ODIN with older Stock Unfortunately as soon as I upgrade to latest ROM it becomes unstable
The thing with the pre-rooted is that none is Greek Vodafone and I need the latest Vodafone GR
Thanks for the replies
Anyone else?

The usual remedy for system instability is just to do a factory reset once.
Everything usually behaves nicely after that.
Won't it be unrooted by the factory reset as I'll be "upgraded" to the latest stock ROM?

No, never. Reset just erases your personal apps and data, and doesn't touch the system.
OK! Thanks a zillion Starting the process....
Looks all right I'll monitor and update in case of problems. FYI for better or for worse I wiped/FSed BEFORE and AFTER downgrading the ROM and rooting
Just now More than 36 hours of operating smoothly and greatly, it started again rebooting at will with no GSM signal etc.
Any ideas?

just out of interest, why dont the pre-rooted roms have the CWM kernel as default?

Why do you need 'Greek Vodafone', as you put it.
There is nothing specific about the Vodafone rom except perhaps some bloatware.
Don't all of these ROMs support the Greek language? Under language/keyboard, my ROM displays Greek, I believe it is the euro version

I need the Greek Vodafone Menu "app" that comes with it
OK 72+ hours after a new factory reset NO problems appear. I stronly believe that the issues were brought by too may apps installed. All previous times I had >190 apps Now I kept it <150 and it seems to work fine. (Could this mean that I have a hardware problem on my phone's memory chips?)
Any how the road was:
A) Downgrade to a rootable ROM
B) Root
C) Factory reset
D) Upgrade to the latest ROM with CWM
E) Factory reset
F) Full reinstallation from GP(Just to be on the safe side
That is all> If I have any news/probs I'll update

Pre-rooted stock Roms from my link are all GB ones.
I recently upgraded my Note to official ICS (OTA) and I'm not liking it AT ALL! Now I really want to get far away from this update as possible and I'd like to switch to a CM9 nightly Rom. I've that now that I have upgraded to the official ICS Rom, I run the risk of super bricking my device. So now I ask you to help me make sure the following is correct so that I may move on from this wretched update:
DO NOT perform wipes if you are on original Samsung ICS
DO NOT perform wipes if you are on a original Samsung kernel??
Flash back to original Gingerbread Rom using odin BEFORE flashing to CM9
Flash to different kernel??
I've flashed millions of Roms but this one is scary and I just want to make sure haven't missed anything... Have I?
Thanks for you help!!
John J
Just flash a stock directly rootable GB rom, root and put CM9 on it. Then do a factory reset and you're good to go. Went that way few times already.

So is the super-brick BUG on the official ICS OTA?? OMG
And yeah go back to gingerbrear via odin, get root then flash any CM9 tru CWM no problems...
I'd like to do something similar to what the OP wants to do however I have rooted and installed CWM on an official/stock ICS rom. So if I wanted to flash back to a stock gingerbread rom would I need to remove CWM and/or un-root?

There is no need to unroot first. You can flash stock GB rom directly via Odin.
I've now flashed to GB but before I move on to a CM9 nightly, do you recommend I flash the CM9 kernel as well? Seems like it is not a prerequisite but I would like to make sure. Thanks.
John J
afaik, when flashing a CM9 Nightly, the eligible kernel is built in, so no need to flash anything but the ROM.
i'm on one of imilkas first CM9 port and it says [email protected] #1 under Kernel version in settings.
Yes. The correct kernel is included in the nightly.
i own a galaxy note GT-N7000..my first sammy device. i have been waiting for what seems like an eternity for an official update here in SOUTH AFRICA. so i looked around the web for ways of updating safely and easily cause im a noob at this really. well, i found this http://www.theandroidsoul.com/xxlpy/
but then i also found a warning about flashing this ROM...
my question now is: how can i get ICS without rooting my phone and without bricking it? has the soultion been found to this eMMC bug?
and if i follow instructions on the link provided, will i be prompted to updated when sammy finally gets around to giving me an OTA?
how do i enjoy ICS without worrying about something being slowly corroded in my phone...

If you follow that instructions you will be fine as long after flashing dont factory reset or recovery data wipe. The only solution to be safe is to have safe ics kernel like speedmod k3-3 or franco r3,r4,r5& r6.

will flashing that kernel mean i will no longer be able to get updates from samsung?
and how do i flash that kernel whilst following the instructions on the link and staying un rooted

Yes you will no longer get an update. You can always use the pc odin to update dont worry.
If you follow those instruction you will loose your root but you can always get rooted if you flash speedmod k3-3.
Sorry, if you follow those instruction you will remain unrooted.
if i flash the xxlpy rom and then after i get ics flash the lc1 gingerbread, will that be fine? will i get to keep ics while running it on the gingerbread firmware?

If you flash ics your in ics. If flash gb your in gb. There is no dual boot.
Sorry going to bed. Just follow the instruction you'll be fine. If your not sure, just remain in gb, you will get better batery life compare to ics.
ok thanks...battery life is important...oh well i just thought maybe i could run the ics rom but have a safe firmware...
one more question , kies asks me to update my firmware, will updating to the latest firmware which i assume is lc1 , will updating delete all my game data files?
All stock ics is no wipe, it will not delete your data.
If an update im sure it is ice cream sandwich android, if its not then i dont know its a wipe or no wipe but if its a wipe then it will delete all your data better back it up if i were you.
if its not then i dont know its a wipe or no wipe but if its a wipe then it will delete all your data better back it up if i were you.[/QUOTE said:

Hello dear XDA peeps
I need some help here or maybe I dont, thats why Im asking!
I rooted and followed all the guides a couple of months back, must be over half a year, and installed ICS Stunner 1.4.19. At that time that was simply the most interesting for my Note. These days when more stable ICS roms seem much more appealing. Altho Im thinking Im waiting for a stable working beta for JB
Since I havent done some ROM loving for quite a while Im quite confused where to begin, do I need to upgrade CWM Manager first? I have version 3.15. Or can I go straight on new ROMs? I spent some time reading about updating CWM today and it seems I have a really dangerous kernel version, 3.0.15-I9220ZLP5-CL295568 and if I understand the CWM Manager thread correctly thats part of the dangerous kernels. Which seems quite dangerous to update it since I cant find a safe version of CWM Manager to update to.
So the bottom question, do I need to update CWM Manager first to do anything safe or update the kernel first to perhaps an old safe rooted GB kernel? All the guides and stuff says the safest way is to first install an old safe GB kernel and then install a ICS or JB kernel (not at the moment tho) but is this the truth in my case?
Anyway, I really appreciate if you could give me some advice here
Thanx in advance

There is newer cf root that is 5.6. This is a safe rooted stock kernel by chainfire with CWM manager.
The devs suggest when installing TW ics custom rom it is recommended to install it while already in ics rom.
First install stock gingerbread rom, while in gingerbread rom do the wiping data,cache, and dalvik and then flash ics rom for clean installation. DO NOT WIPE IN STOCK ICS ROM, DANGEROUS. READ THE WARNING IN THE FORUM.
You can choose any tw custom rom you like.
If you want suggestion on what custom rom just ask i gave you one.
Ok, still not sure what do to first but it is safe to install a GB rom first? Updating CWM isn't that important? What I meant was that I still cant find a fitting version to install. Nearest version is: CF-Root-SGN_DD_ODD_LP8-v5.5-CWM5.zip but thats on the danger list so Im still confused about what version to download.. :/
Perhaps CF-Root-SGN_DD_ODD_LP8-v5.6-CWM5.zip is safe to install tho?
EDIT: I saw that I had cf-root version 5.2, it was CWM Manager that was version 3.15
EDIT: getting a new baseband comes with a rom, no need to install baseband seperatly? For example, getting Cassie's XtraLiteRom Version X LC1 295Mb is getting my baseband LC1 too?

You can flash the cassies custom rom directly over the stunner rom if you want to, just be sure to use ABYSS KERNEL for wiping.
Base band also known as modem. There are many flashable modem to choose so no problem what modem you Want.
If you want to install cassies latest custom rom you will get also the latest CWM recovery and manager.
Uhm ok.. so much information Im confused as usual
I cant find exactly abyss kernel. Can it be this one? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1362424/
And can I flash all roms via CWM or do I have to use PC ODIN?
EDIT: found the abyss note kernel, really slow downloading tho.

Hi,
First I rooted my SGA running android 2.3.5
Second I tried to install CM 9.1.
Third Some things got messed up, and accidentally deleted my root some way or another.
Fourth Installing CM 9.1 worked!
But then... My phone wasn't rooted anymore
I want it to be root!
I read several things about using ODIN, (I thought if I reinstalled my stock firmware, I'd root it again)
But the problem is: I don't have a orginal USB cable, and my others don't work..
And I can't install KIES on my phone...
How can I flash my phone to the original firmware?
I hope you can help me!
