k. am downgrading Firmware to KL3 , and i need procedure. but mainly it should not effect binary counter.

It's not possible to root LA4 directly at the moment, so you'll need to downgrade your device first:
- Download a firmware that's rootable from here.
- Download Odin from the link provided above
- Enter "Download Mode" on your device by shutting your Note completely off, then press and hold Volume Down + Home button + Power button
- Start Odin
- Unzip the firmware (the zip file you just downloaded), and you'll end up with a md5-file
- Go to Odin and click "PDA" and choose the md5-file
- Press "Start"
- Wait
- Done
Now you can root the device and get CWM, so go to this thread and do the "I Want ROOT + CWM" at the end of the first post.
- After you're rooted download LA4 again from the first link in this post
- Transfer it to your Note
- Open CWM on your Note
- Flash it
Done. You now have a rooted LA4.

No it won't.
Just make 1 thing clear. binary count raise only, If you flash any custom ROM/Kernel with PC Odin.
Follow LordManhattan's advise and still once refer Installation guide in detail in post #2 n 3 of this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424997
Just to add, Downgrade Firmware shud be direct rootable. (before KL7), N if particularly i specify, I can say Downgrade first to indian ROM KL1, I have flashed this ROM in at least 5 Notes.

That means Flashing Custom ROM using CWM doesn't effect Binary Count rite??

if you flash using CWM or mobile odin it wont if you do using oding from PC it will still not sure about official firmware

Yep, this is what I did after going through Dr. Ketans post. I now have rooted LA4 , but my CWM app and recovery is only partial. I do not have option to do backup/restore on CWM on LA4. Is it a universal problem? Any ideas?

Hey,
Dr.Ketan, can you tell me please if there is a chance to root the original LA4 (never changed rom) if I don't have access to a Windows and only to a Mac?
I only want to root it for the basic tweaks and apps. Don't need a custom rom at the moment. I want to root it and use it as is while I wait for the official ICS.
Thanks.

There is no Queston of window or Mac,LA4 is non rootable, to get root, first u need to downgrade older rom.

Thanks. I got ahead of the events. I didn't meant that. I meant if I can do the procedure of downgrading and everything I might need to do in order to root or to install a custom rom or another stock using ONLY my Samsung Note and a Mac.
Q1: I can downgrade using a exclusively a Mac with Lion on it?
Q2: If the answer to Q1 is affirmative, can I root it after downgrade also using only Lion on Mac?
Thanks again!

I have never heard mac pc odin. Plz google for it. So without pc odin you cant downgrade.
Yes there was review i read, got root with mac. You just read my thread how to root...(u may find from my signature), i remember i have post a link somwhere, how to root using mac.

Yes, I saw there was one root with mac solution, but works only if the Note is rootable. LA4 is not. So I must downgrade first. )))))
Nevermind, I'll try to do it with Windows, somehow. Thanks!

I am also new to this, and this thread is very clear. The bit I do not understand is what Kernal I should be running. Custom roms available can have a variety of kernals e.g LA3, LA4 etc. Do i have to choose a rom that has a kernal compatible with my phone? is there some rational to running one kernal vs another? I notice that it may be possible to flash a rom and keep a previous kernal e.g a CF kernal. is this advisable? your advice would be very welcome.

You don't need to flash a new kernel. Most of the custom ROMs includes a custom kernel that's good enough, but if you're interested in testing a few of them then you can do it without any problems.

Now is when I am lost. I did all the above (thanks, by the way) and I run KKA now. I had LA4 (Germany) when bought it, then downgraded to root.
Now I am rooted but when I try to update firmware with CWM, nothing happens. I have to put the ZIP in the Note or the MD5? I tried with the MD5 two times.
Is there something I do wrong? Is any other method apart from CWM? I mention that when I downgraded and first booted, CWM said something about "not being compatible and some functions were disabled".
Any ideas?
EDIT:
I couldn't work it out as expected and I went back to my original LA4 (Germany).

[Q]About Rooting and Installing Custom Rom For Samsung Note

With all due respect to all Senior members, i just had my kk1 rooted Samsung Galaxy Note.. Updated to LA1(stock roms).. In order to Root LA1 Kernel to Rocket Rom.. Where and how do i start.. ??

Just download rocketrom v22(latest)..if u have rooted your phone,u should have cwm.. enter the cmw recovery mode,make a full wipe,and flash the rocketrom zip file..
Before flashing any Rom,it is better for you to make a nandroid backup and also titanium backup..of anything goes wrong,u can restore it back and get to the previous state of your phone..
Fyi,there are also optional installment after flashing rocketrom..make sure u read the rr thread..
RR v22 is really awesome!!!

Please before flashing any Custom ROM read entire post Carefully.
You already flashed Custom ROM Using Odin. So what your binary counter is raised. (To check Reboot in Download mode and See Custom Binary Count=?)
It doesn't harm your device. but you wont get warranty anymore. you regain your warranty you should remove Yellow triangle (!) please follow this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1354888
Please anymore do not use PC Odin only for Stock ROM. For Flashing Custom ROM use CWM Recovery.

Looks like in future more.. I guess that Odin is not longer useable.. The counter will keep raising.. So right now, i download the how to remove yellow triangle exclamation mark.. And Flashing Custom Rom like RR or Other custom rom using CMW Recovery..?
And do i need to use JIG for this method?? Since i can connect to Download mode, Correct me if i were wrong about The Jigs is for the phone which wont boot up anymore.. Right?

Okay, i guess that i need JIG for this.. gotta need it from some hardware shop.. nearby..

Hello
I have a question about CWM and the binary counter : does the binary counter increment while flashing with CWM ?

Odin can be used only for Flashing Stock ROM. Flashing Stock ROM using PC Odin wont raise Binary Counter. You have to Flash Custom ROMs using CWM Recovery or Mobile Odin.
Yellow Triangle wont harm your device. you wont get warranty that's it.
If you want regain the warranty you should remove yellow triangle from device. that means you should use JIG. JIG can be used for 2 problems. 1 is for who cant get in to download mode and second is to remove Yellow Triangle.

Hi,
I have already flashed this rom
Recording both side conversation using Blut tooth hands free is required. This rom does not do it. How do I record both side conversation using blue tooth.
Will "rocket ROM 19 + faby71 call rec mod + total recall recorder (common version) " work as stated in some other post?
Where can I download "faby71 call rec mod"?
Does it work with ROCKET-v22 -LA6-eybee1970 using blue tooth head phone with any call recorder?
The another BIG issue I get with ROCKET-v22-LA6-eybee1970 is
1) HIGH BATTERY DRAIN &
2) Mobile data network getting switch on automatically without permission even when it is switched off manually.
Please help. [email protected]

im interested in trying this rom CheckROM NoteHD™ V6 | Kitchen Pro v2.41
i presume i need to install CWM 1st? what do i backup before i install above said rom.
is this a safe way with no yellow triangle and binary count and is it easy enough to put back to stock for warranty purposes?
my current rom below - will the new rom update all PDA, PHONE and CSC?
PDA: N7000XXKKA

Install CWM recovery by flashing the corresponding kernel to your current ROM from Chainfire's thread, they will be in post #4 if I remember correctly.. Flash using method described in post #2 the "already rooted.bat" method and you will have a working CWM recovery
Boot into said recovery: shut down your phone, press and hold 3 buttons: power + home + volume up and from there do a backup of your current ROM "another easier way would be to use the CWM app that cones with CF Root kernel and make a backup from there"
It is completely safe to flash through recovery, no yellow triangle and no flash counter will increase
The Check ROM will indeed update your PDA and CSC, but I don't think it will update your PHONE "aka modem"..there is a separate thread for modems to choose from and flash what suits you best
Hope this helps

What is the difference flashing from CWM recovery or using Mobile Odin? Sorry, if this is a stupid question. I'm still learning to tweak my Note.

(q) stock isc with speedmod kernel

Hi.. i'we done odin flash on my N7000 form GB to ISC xxlq3 (slo) and than i flashed speedmod kernel over it..
but i didn't root it before.. because on the official speedmode page doesn't say it needs to be rooted before
can I safely downgrade with dr.ketan tut??? or can i flash chainfire's CF-Root-SGN_XX_SEB_LQ3-v5.6-CWM5 over speedmod
and yes i also have 0x19 bug
help needed :good:
thank you

If you have flashed speedmod via PC Odin, means your phone is already rooted. It comes with speedmod. You should see Superuser app on your app drawer. No worries for now. Next step, you might like to search for 'yellow triangle'.
Take it easy. One step at a time, otherwise you will be overwhelmed.
PS: I did my rooting the same way as you did, with GB at that time. It was my first custom flashing business

Don't worry !! You can use the root validator to check for root. If things are good you can start you flashing sessions. Else you can use Dr.Ketan's rooting for ICS http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=26455511&postcount=2475. Just a simple process. Cherios. :good:

and by the way official post says :
[KERNEL] SpeedMod N7000 ICS [K3-7 CWM CIFS ROOT / NO-ROOT]
also when i boot in recovery in main menu look like samsung recovery and when i enter some of the menus the CWM logo appears
hope its not bricked

Just follow dr.ketan's guide in the link above. Could be your speedmod flashing was unsuccessful. Can you check again in Settings -> About phone -> Kernel version?

2. I've tried after speedmod kern, to re flash just the cwm but it hangs on the install???? haven't try the cwm.zip from dr.ketan??? should I???
sorry i'm noob

For your LQ3, you should follow dr.ketan's guide. Possibly due to low memory in system partition in LQ3, the new files for rooting (busybox, superuser, su binary) could not be injected. Start afresh, learn something new. Everybody was once a noob before

Rooting Note on ICS ROM PROBLEM

Hi,
I am new to Android Phones. I tried to root my Galaxy Note using the above method
2. Long, No raised couter OR Exclamation mark
-Downgrade to Rootable GB ROM and Root it. OR Download This pre rooted GB ROM and flash using PC Odin
-Wipe cache, data and delvic cache from recovery
-Install Mobile Odin Pro
-Copy ICS ROM file in .tar (you want to flash) to Internal SD card (recommended, but you can have it on EXT too)
-Download Odin (.tar) version of custom kernel like Notecore, Speedmod, CF root kernel Or other any with same function. If newbies have confusion to select, here is one for example Notecore V12 std kernel. You can use this. But newer version can be found on link mentioned above.
-Open Mobile Odin Pro
-select open file
but i run mobile odin without downloading the odin version of custom kernel (I got confused, I thought I needed to do thisafter running mobile odin) and now my phone is stuck in flashing mode for about 45mins switching on and off.
What should I do?
Thank you in advance for your help...
Christina

Flash Pre rooted ROm again Wipe cache and data and repeat procedure, that will be safe.

It worked! Thank you!

Just a quick question...
I followed all the steps mentioned on the thread up to installing mobile odin and copying the ics rom....
but I am confused with the odin version of custom kernel...I am trying to find the correct cf-root kernel through the link you provided but I can not find the KJ1. I downloaded the one you have attached below mobile odin screenshots. Is that ok?
And also where do I copy the kernel? Internal or external sd? Should it be in a specific directory in order to be detected by mobile odin?
Sorry for all these questions but I looked around and there is no specific instructions anywhere about this part.
Thank you...

Which rom you want to flash?

Since I am new to the android platform phones, I think it will be better if i explained what my objective is so I won't confuse you too....
I want to be able to install and use rooted applications like titanium back up. I read that in order to do this I have to root my phone.
So what I want to do now is to root my phone in order to use ie titanium black without upping my flash counter.
Also I do not care to have a custom ICS, I prefer the stock one for now until I become more familiar with all these.
I followed the steps but the customn kernel things has confused me.
My phone is as mentioned before a galaxy note with ICS 4.04 before I started the procedure, now I have Gingerbread 2.35.
What should I do?
Thank you

-Download Odin (.tar) version of custom kernel like Notecore, Speedmod, CF root kernel Or other any with same function. If newbies have confusion to select, here is one for example Notecore V12 std kernel. You can use this. But newer version can be found on link mentioned above.
-Flash it using PC odin for PDA tab.
-You will get exclamation mark and raised counter, which can be reset with Triangle Away
-First time opening triangle away application, it will ask to download file(flasher), let it complete. then choose to reset counter, it will restart in special recovery an finish job.\
If yes, then this brings us back - almost - to my original question....how do i use the custom kernel (cf or notecore) with odin? I know it uzips to a zimage etc but how do I use it which odin? Also which cf kernel -if iuse this one- is correct for my phone? Is there a link you can provide that explains all these?
Thank you!

Thank you both for your time and help!

Ok I ve downloaded stock rom N7000XXLRI---4.0.4/12.07.19-N7000OXXLP8 and copied it to sd card
I downloaded the kernel from your signature and copied the zimage to the sd card
I started mobile odin and i went open file and chose the N7000XXLRI_N7000OXXLP8_N7000XXLRB_HOME.tar and then changed the kernel to zimage i had moved to sd.
Now the phone keeps switching on and off showing (5 minutes now)

I switched the phone off and i went to download mode and flash the phone back to stock ICS 4.04 because the mobile odin flashing was stuck ( i watched a video and the flashing wasnt the same, mine kept switching on off the phone like it was missing something)
Any ideas/suggestions about what i should do now?

Phone wotking fine now on 4.0.4?
