[Q] Help!! - Jump from ICS Stunner to another ROM - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Dear Mods/devs any body who can help me!
I am stuck in a unique situation and no matter what i cant figure out a way out of this!
Before posting this have been through Abhisahara's thread on rooting and kernels, Dr Ketan's thread and many more but all confused!!
My problem is i am on the Superbrickable ZCLP5 kernel with ICS Stunner 1.4.19 which i have been using since it first launched without any problems.
As per gotbrickbug App, i have the problem of potential superbrick.
I need to go to another ROM but just cant figure a way out as now am more confused as to what really to do!!
I already have the hydracore kernel downloaded and the stock GB Rom(unrooted - V KL1) with me sitting on my PC alongwith PC ODIN.
Can anybody help me with installing the Paranoidandroid rom and which is the best way to avoid the emmc_CAP_ERASE problem!!
Many thanks!!

Just flash Hydracore kernel and you will be good to go for flashing any custom rom.

Take it easy, you're fine. If you've installed HydraCore it means you're on a safe kernel. Just download pc Odin if you haven't already.
What rom do you want to go to? I'd recommend for safest operation, install gb stock, then look at upgrade but it depends on which rom you want to flash.
Emmc bug is only triggered on stock kernels or under some cwm flashes which most people don't do, so take it easy, you're ok.

1. Flash hydracore kernel.
2. Reboot recovery.
3. Make sure you are on hydracore kernel.
4. Do what ever you want.
If you still being scare of doing this. Just follow jeetu suggestion. Go back to gb pre rooted rom by using pc odin. Then use mobile odin to flash rooted kernel. After get full root, go recovery and flash cm9. Done.

Flashing Hydracore doesn't affect root, you will be rooted and can flash PA directly using cwmr after flashing hydracore.

I would recommend you go with the long route of installing stock GB first. I saw the installation instructions of PA (i'm not sure though if that's an outdated tutorial or if it's still the current one to date), but it explicitly tells you that you need to be on stock GB before installing PA. I'm open to corrections though from those who have PA already installed but personally,it would be good if you start from scratch and work your way up to eventually install PA.
That's just my advice to you.

Hi,
I got a question, I have flashed the kernel to the hydracore one, have root and CWM but I am still on the ICS stock ROM. Is it possible to go directly to paranoid one without the need to downgrade to GB ?
By the way, can you provide a link to dl paranoid ?
Thank you in advance for your answer.

Ok but as I can see the ROM is only 160 MB as other ROM (stock for example are almost 700MB), I don't want to lose some essential functionalities by flashing to an incomplete ROM. How to know which file to dl from the Gapps is there on this one that you have the 500 MB missing ?
Thanks again and sorry for my poor knowledge

All aosp roms are that size.. It's a completely different experience as aosp roms are pure Google experience with no Samsung or any other retailers custom launcher and bloat..
It depends on Wich functionalities do you have in mind?

Ok thanks so they put a lot of useless heavy crap inside I guess
I am still struggling to have a download link for a stable zip file to flash, is it possible to have a link ?
Thank you

I've downloaded the rom in the past no issues.. Don't know about mirrors.. Maybe ask there in the ParanoidAndroid threat

th rom ur talking abt is tw based? vl it hv premium suite apps?
What I recommend, based on what I did:
- Download the leaked German official ROM (about 600-700Mb), .tar.md5 file and put into your phone's sd-card.
- Install Mobile Odin Pro from Play Store (need to pay. there's free version too, but I suggest you pay for Pro, safer).
- In M. Odin, open the .tar.md5 file, and press flash. (if you don't mind wiping, best to also check the wipe options).
I didn't wipe, and then it couldn't boot.
So I booted into recovery, and wiped data/factory reset and cache, then it booted fine.
Still had root.
Then I installed CF-Kernel. Go to the Dev thread and scroll down till you see the GT...LPY version and download that zip. Unzip to take out the .tar file, copy to sd-card.
Use Mobile Odin to open it, and then flash. It will flash the kernel, and then you will have ClockworkMod recovery so that you can backup/restore ROMs again.
(Note: You can actually do the above in one single step, but opening the CF kernel file after you open the ICS file, so that everything else points to the ICS file except the kernel points to CF Kernel.)

Help to downgrade to Gingerbread

Morning,
I've got my GNote running a stock ICS ROM rooted with Dr. Ketan method, temporary CWM.zip / install SUBusybox.
I really want to start experimenting with custom ROMS and such but given the issue with ICS Kernel I want to downgrade to GB, root and have the option to safely mess about without fear of turning the beloved Note onto a paperweight...
I've been reading across this forum a while now and there's a few things I've came across, but I'd like to know the easiest way to revert to GB..
From what I see it need to download PC Odin, a UK GB Stock ROM and install it via Odin.
Anything I'm missing out here? Do I need to flash a safer CF-Root or Abyss kernel first?
Sorry for the questions but this is much different to the HTC Desire I messed with daily without problems..
Thanks,

to revert to GB its as simple as flashing a GB Firmware in ODIN
Then when you are on GB, Flash a kernel like speedmod, Which will give you CWM + Root too ! Or just root the stock GB kernel, which ever suits you
Then flash away

Kinda feel a bit out of my depth here, Given I use the phone for work also I'm reluctant to brick the little son of a *****..
That said, I want to get off of ICS until they (Samsung) sort this issue out
Phone shows Running:
Android: 4.0.3
Baseband: N7000xxLPT
Kernel: 3.0.15-N7000xxLQ2
I have the root i was after, but just wondering if it's worth waiting for a fix from Samsung before i mess about a little more ..
PC Odin seems easy enough - issue is I can only seems to locate a Carphone Warehouse GB UK ROM - Guess this is not full of carrier bloatware?
Damn I'm edgy !

Hi CJSlim79,
Im facing the same problem as u. is it possible to guide me how to do it for return back to GB? i already downloaded the Odin, but cant find the link to download the GB files. mind to share the link?

thanks in advance.
It's easy enough to do but understandably a little nerve racking at first.
You'll find all you need in Dr. Ketan's Stock ROM thread.. As well as full step by step instructions on how to proceed using ODIN.

Flashing a custom rom on International Note

Hi guys,
I was a bit confused about flashing and many questions stormed my mind.
Ok my current situation is like this --> I have a rooted galaxy note.
I am on stock ICS 4.0.4
I have kingdroid v3.0 and cynogenmod 9 with me.
I know basics of flashing and will be able to flash them.
My question is that,
Is kingdroid rom safe from the emmc chip bug?
Which method is safer- flashing through ext storage or through odin?
If kingdroid is unsafe, then is it really worth flashing CM9?
Thank you in advance.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using XDA
Kingdroid is based on CM/AOSP right ?
In order to flash that you need to be on GingerBread, GB is safe from the emmc bug so you wont have any issues.
flashing through CWM or ODIN are at the same safe / risk level, Theres a chance you can brick your phone using either.
However, You will only get the brickbug if you are on a Stock ICS kernel, You shouldnt encounter this as you will be flashing from GB.
Just follow the instructions on the ROM thread and you will be fine.

I agree with the azzle.
Steps:
-Dowgrade to GB
-Flash the abyss kernel [which will also "install" CWM]
-Wipe and flash a rom...

I dont know anything bout this Kingstuff, but CM9 is great, or paranoid rom if you want the tablet/hybrid mode stuff.

Best JB rom + how do you get there from stock ICS?

Hi,
I'm currently on stock ICS (4.0.4).
My phone has recently started occasionally/randomly restarting itself.
I've read that doing a factory reset or data wipe will result in a brick so was thinking of switching to a custom rom.
What's the best Jelly Bean rom? or isn't there a good stable one?
If not then what's the best stable/usable ICS rom and how do I get there from stock?
I know I need to flash GB via pc odin, but what after that?
There are warnings that say "FLASHING FROM STOCK ICS OR ROMS BASED ON STOCK ICS WILL RESULT IN A BRICK!"
I just wanna be as clear as possible. Would hate to have a brick.
Thanks.

JB roms are still in development and not so stable for daily use yet. For flashing custom ICS you do not have to flash GB rom, just flash safe custom ICS kernel and flash custom rom through cwm recovery.
You can also wipe your current rom after flashing safe custom kernel. No need to flash custom rom just because you cannot wipe on stock kernel
For my personal of view, liquid smooth jb v2.0 beta is the best at the moment.
If you on rooted ics. You can flash jb rom thru safe kernel such as cm9 kernel, gb kernel or notecore kernel.
But please read carefully and understand what noted at op and follow the installation method.
Good luck.

Never Never Wipe on ICS as stated in op.
Now everybody knows JB is still under development and in preview. So I think you should have to wait for a stable version to enjoy the juice
For ICS you can try Cleanote v5,Kingdroid or RR for better performance and battery life
Here are the links :-

Here is the best thread for rooting and flashing custom kernel on Note- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1329360
Once you are rooted and on safe custom kernel you can follow the instructions on your chosen custom rom OP.
In terms of safer installation method. It have too many of opinions around note forum. Some will say flash any rom or nandroid by using abssy 4.2 kernel, some will say not neccesary to use abssy 4.2 kernel with the secure and safe kernel exists such as notecore and speedmod kernel.
Some will advice you must go back gb before flash cm base rom and some will tell you totally bull**** and not neccesary to go back gb before flash cm base rom with secure tw kernel around.
Confuse? For me, all of them have the right opinion and nothing wrong with them. Thats your own smartphone which cost about usd 500. If you scare of something, just follow the long installation method. If you feel lazy to take do such of long intallation step, you can always use the secure kernel to swap in between gb, tw and cm base rom.
But anyway, is your own asset, your own choice. You are the one who will take full responsibility for doing any modification, rooting and flashing. Not anyone else here.
You can always refer dr.ketan advice.

General questions on rooting and flashing roms on note

Im just stating here that I will generally know what you are talking about, im not a noob when it comes to android modding/roms/rooting, however i have always been worried with my note because ive seen lots of threads on devices being bricked.
basically i want to root my note, get CWM recovery onto it, and then flash whatever ROM/s i choose, without getting my phone bricked in the process.
i want someone to advise me on the best way to go about this whole thing, thankyou!
my device:
Samsung galaxy note (not sure if international or not, i bought from kogan.com.au, i live in australia, and have a telstra sim in it, however i think kogan ships the intl model)
android version: 4.0.3 ICS (stock)
baseband: N7000XXLPT
KERNEL VERSION: 3.0.15-N7000XXLPY-CL474507
BUILD NUMBER: IML74K.XXLPY
carrier: telstra (prepaid, and phone is unlocked)
the main confusion i have here is finding the correct threads for my kernel version, however i couldnt find what i wanted, and was unsure of which was safest, so thanks all for helping me out!

Hello Good Dr. I am about to try rooting via method 1.Rooting with stock recovery. After this am i correct in saying I should flash notecore kernel ? I would be using Mobile Odin to do this as I dont have Windows PC.
What would be safest method to get to ParanoidAndroid JB or CM10 JB from there ? After the Kernel is flashed. Would I have to downgrade to pre-rooted GB rom first then flash ParanoidAndroid ? So your method 1 > flash kernel > downgrade to pre-rooted GB rom > ParanoidAndroid ?
Kind Thanks.
If you want to downgrade to prerooted rom then no need to get root, except you have no option to use pc. In this condition just root n use mobile odin to flash prerooted rom. After successful flashing wipe cache n data and flash cusyom ROM.

So please just to clarify Dr.ketan. If I follow your method 1 to root my ICS Note and then I flash safe notecore kernel via Mobile Odin then I could flash ANY custom rom ? No need to flash a pre-rooted GB rom ? If this is correct would I need to wipe cache and data before flashing custom rom ? Please could you clarify which cache I should wipe ?
Thank you very much.
[Resolved via DM. Thanks Dr.Katan]
After flashing note core.you can.flash custom rom if that is ics based.
Otherwise i recommend to flash preroored gb rom first and wipe all (cache,data and delvic cache)

Can I flash pre-rooted gb rom with mobile odin ? do I need a tar file or will it work with zip ? or should I use recovery mode and a zip ?
Thank you.
Stephen
Mobile odin can't flash zip.recovery.files. You can flash tar file, and prerooted gb rom is in tar. You can use mobile odin for that

Thank you once again.
Is this safe to do on mobile odin ? Please could you provide me with a link to a pre-rooted gb rom in .tar format as the one in your sig is in .zip
Stephen
Just extract that, n you will get .tar file.

Well guys. It looks like my flashing rom days are over before they have begun !
Tryed flashing the pre-rooted GB rom via Mobile Odin. This is what I get http://twitpic.com/an6zbi
This isnt right is it. Surely the other sections should be filled in not just System ? This is a real problem as I dont have Windows and can get my head around Heimdall. Im stumped. Is there a file I can use via Restore to install the rom ?
Hope someone can help !

I have read a lot but I'm still a bit confused...
Hello dear friends,
I'm just a newbie here, so please be patient ...
1) I'm planning to root+CWM my n7000 and also (and finally) want to flash CM9.1 (stable) on it. Right now I'm on GB 2.3.6 (not directly rootable) it's ZSLA2... for what I understand from Dr. Ketan's rooting guide is that I have to first downgrade the device flashing a pre-rooted+CWM'ed GB ROM from Chainfire..... ok, no problem.... but, my main question is: once I already have this pre-rooted gingerbread rom, can I (must I) do a hard reset/wipe prior to flash a custom rom?... and, can I FINALLY and DIRECTLY flash the CM9.1 + Gapps files from that chainfire's gingerbread rom version/kernel?... or do I have to upgrade again to a new GB ROM and then flash the CM?.... or even further: do I have to upgrade to a newer GB ROM then to an ICS ROM and only then I would can flash the CM file??....
2) The obligated dumb question: Once I finally flash CM9.1 ROM, it's a must (or a recommended practice) to flash a safe kernel like Franco, Speedmod, Notecore (for safety and/or performance)??
Thank you for your time! cheers

1. always advisable to do all three wipes ( data , cache, dalvik) in CWM if you are on GB and planning to flash another rom from there.
--- yes, you can directly go from pre-rooted Gb to CM 9.1 with g apps
--- when you are on CM and want to go to a custom ics then best to follow the method specified in opening post of the rom thread by developer. all CM kernels are safe to wipe and flash from generally...
2 . Franco , notecore, speedmod are all Touchwiz kernels. a CM rom will not boot with it, its not compatible.there are other CM kernels available that you can use with it, refer kernel repository by Chasmodo

Now that you mention Touchwiz (and continiuing with the dumb questions)... how can I have the latest Touchwiz (the SIII one) alongside with CM9? and... will I have all the S-Pen funcionality (pen and apps) in CM9??

TW and Cm roms have varied/different and many simillar features
you must read through the rom threads for identifying them and choose your rom accordingly
I'm sorry if this question has been answered before, but I couldn't find it by searching.
I'm running 4.0.4 rooted, and would like to unroot it since I have to take my Note to be fixed on warranty. I rooted with temporary CWM and because it's considered to be dangerous now, can I run the Unroot_SuperUser-Busybox-Uninstaller-Update2-signed.zip from Dr. Ketan's root/unroot thread from stock recovery ?
Just wanted to make sure before I do anything stupid. And yes, I know I could flash to stock GB, wipe and flash to stock ICS but if I could unroot straight from recovery it would be a lot easier. Thanks in advance.
Yes you can, but remember if you have flashed custim kernel then first replace with stock. As well if you have update supersu from market, then first uninstall that from setting -appl -all
