[Q] Note Root problems (After yellow triangle)

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

Thanks dr.ketan!
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??
or should i get into recovery, try to flash the stock rom N7000OZSLA2 ?
I think i flashed the wrong version:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1415567

Now I find I cant flash any rom by CWM....
"installation aborted"

Have u wipe data ? If not do it first thn flash stock rom using pc odin

I really didnt wipe data, but finally flash stock rom by pc odin

I flash hk version LA2, but cant root
& then flash KJ1 Factoryfs, got the CWM
lastly I flash the abyssnote kernel
so is my SGN now contains a KJ1 rom?
can i flash back to LA2 without losing the root?
or is there any big differences between KJ1 & LA2??
& one more, I want to add the battery %, where can i find/search the suitable one for my SGN

Now you can flash to la2 with CWM n keep cf-root when ask
Or use mobile odin n enable everroot option in mobile odin n flash

Thank you so much ketan!
I got LA2 n keep the cf-root now!
One thing I want to ask :
Is any roms to flash can follow the below procedure?
or which situations cannot follow this procedure:
Thanks.
2. CWM recovery (you need Root + CWM on existing ROM. Get )
Download the ROM. Extract it.
Create folder /sdcard/external_sd/firmware (thats folder "firmware" (lowercase) on your external SD card) (see image)

This is for Stock ROM only
If you want to flash custom rom, u have to select flash zip option, not 'flash stock firmware' option

[Q] From GB LC1... to ICS LQ3 ?

Hi guys,
I have my Galaxy note since 4 months now I and think it's time to update it to ICS and why not to a custom rom like Criskelo (before my Note I had the GS II and I was really happy of the Criskelo Rom I installed on it).
So here I am, looking for informations about how to proceed to upgrade my phone..
I read a lot of post, it seems that few ROMs are really dangerous and can block the phone, and it seems that the LC1 is unrootable so I would have to downgrade it first ?
So can someone who know explain me how to proceed ? which steps should I follow?
I read that to go to ICS LQ8 from GB, I should first
"Install ics repack by chainfire via mobile odin-reboot-reboot into revovery-full wipe-install criskelo ics "
But there is a topic "http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1633943" which say "do not install any ics repack"...
So I'm totally lost !
I hope someone can help me, as I said, my goal is to go from GB LC1 to ICS Criskelo7 LQ3!
Thank you in advance

Hi!
To get root from lc1, you can just use a french tutorial here:
http://www.galaxynote.fr/rooter-facilement-son-telephone-t3714.html
Can't be more simple!
From there I didn't get to know how to install a stable ics rom.
Just let me know if you find a simple and safe way to install a good rom.

You can follow the procedure suggested by xda developers:
When on any rooted GB Rom:
1. download AbyssNote 4.2 kernel and place it on your internal/external SD Card
Also download the ICS Rom you want to install and put it on your SD card.
2. reboot to CWMR and do a backup of your current system
3. after your backup is done, stay in Recovery
4. go to install a zip from SD card --> select AbyssNote 4.2 zip and flash it
5. go back to CWMR's root menu --> advanced --> reboot recovery
6. you'll find yourself in AbyssNote's Touch Recovery
7. factory reset --> wipe cache --> wipe dalvik
9. flash the ICS Rom of your choice
10. reboot and let the Rom settle for a couple of minutes

Hi Guys,
Thank you very much for your fast answers !
Tonight is the big night, I will upgrade my device !
@jabab : I will follow thistutorial to root my Note
@tknguyencsu : Ok then when my GB LC1 will be rooted, I just need to follow you instructions !
Can you explain me why is AbyssNote needed ? No risk to do a factory reset on my GB LC1 stock rom ? Do you agree that all this means I go directly from my GB LC1 to a ICS LQ3 without any middle step with a lower ICS version ?
Sorry for all this newb question..

Thanks for this !! But I have just got my Note and its LC1 - Can I just flash the zImage I got from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1329360 Or do i need to do the whole downgrade procedure ?

Hi again !
Thank you very much guys, It's done for me ! I'm on Criskelo LQ3 and everything was fine !
@azzledazzle: As I understood on different post, the stock GB LC1 rom is not rootable, so you will at first need to flash an other kernel in your device.
Few options then, as tknguyencsu advice, you can install "AbyssNote 4.2 kernel", or a "Rooted_Stock_Odex_N7000XXLC1_FRANCE" which I did (few posts will give you a link to the one you want).
You flash then your device with it (non-wipe) and then you will be able to root in an easy way.
When your device is rooted, do a backup, and then go for a full wipe (I think it's more than needed to go from GB to ICS).
Then > install your ROM
For perfectly for me !
Thank you for your help guys
(ps: do I need to do a batterie stats reset ? if yes should I do it when the device is fully charged ?)

Hey man, Did the above steps but ran into a few issues, To save me double posting heres the link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=27716441&postcount=78
Im back on ICS now, with CF kernel... Dont know what step(s) to take next

And what about the triangle after flashing with Abyss?

Yeah I have that too, But im not using abyss any more, Im using CF kernel, and i still have it.
Not so keen on CF kernel, I heard someone got the hardbrick with it. Am i to use the CWM app for all flashing now ? Cause when i booted into recovery and flashed abyss it wouldnt boot.

From what i as able to understand - if we do this:
"4. go to install a zip from SD card --> select AbyssNote 4.2 zip and flash it
5. go back to CWMR's root menu --> advanced --> reboot recovery"
in other words - if we do not boot with Abyss we won't get the yellow triangle.
Is this correct?

Just download Hydracore, go back to recovery and flash it... Then go advanced options and reboot recovery.. After that wipe everything again and flash the new rom... Stay away from franco kernel that's way outdated and doesn't work with anything

i tried flashing hydracore and it took for me 10mins plus at the screen and still at the same place.

you tried to flash hydracore, and its not installing ?
may be try to flash back the stock ICS using odin and then flash Philz kernel to gain root
.boot into recovery and go to mounts & storage.
format / sytem
format / data
then try to install your TMT rom

If TMT is installed, Or even part installed then it wont boot with Hydracore kernel, The main thing is just having the kernel installed cause its safe, So, In recovery (with Hydracore installed)
Do all the necessary wipes, Flash the ROM, Then flash the kernel (Philz kernel)
then it should boot
If not, follow the above post to revert back to stock ICS / GB with odin, and then start the whole procedure again :good:

Stock ICS --> JB Leak?

Hi all,
I know similar questions have been asked literally hundred times, but as a complete noob to roms, I want to make sure that I get a full set of instructions and then I won't brick my phone. I want to upgrade my note to this JB Rom by cronosmachine. I'm on stock ICS 4.0.4. Never rooted or did modding to the phone. No kernel change (which I know nothing about), nothing.
I'm not sure how much info you guys will need but here are the basics:
Baseband version: N7000XXLRB
Kernel version: 3.0. 15-1115729
[email protected] #3
SMP PREEMPT Thu Sep 20 00:40:29 KST 2012
Build number: IMM76D.ZSLPN
I know that I have to first root my phone to get CWM? My guess is to follow method 1 on [24sept12]How to Root/Unroot Samsung Galaxy Note + CWM?
And then from there I don't know what to do in order to get the ROM onto my phone.
And is there anything else I need to be aware of?
Appreciate any kind of help.

yes first root usin 1a method using philz kernel.
Once done, you will have root and cwm and is a safe kernel.
Download the zip file of the rom you want to flash and place it on internal or external sd card.
boot into recovery now (vol up +power+home)
go to mounts and storage
format/system
format/data
format/cache
go to advanced
wipe dalvik cache
go back
install zip.
point to the rom you downloaded.. and wait for it to install. that's all. see your phone booting into jb.
hope that was clear enough

On Phils' post where I can download the rooted kernel, I don't see XXLRB (my baseband version), but I do see a ZSLPN (my build number). Is the ZSLPN the one i'm supposed to download?

Thanks SpyderTracks.
One more question before I pull the trigger, can all this be done with the "internal" SD card? Or does it have to be an external SD?

stock recovery doesnot allow installation from internal SD. so external is required. but you can use PC odin to install it, but it will leave a yellow triangle and increase the counter. later you can use triangle away app to reset it, Final call is yours.,

So after I installed philz's root and safe kernel, I went into recovery to wipe data cache system, went also wiped dalvik. Then I went to the main menu, chose install zip, tried to select choose zip from sdcard, but it keeps giving me this error: E:Can't mount /sdcard/

Nevermind, I managed to install from internal SD. But I'm not liking the ROM that much, so I plan on flashing CM10 Nightly to try it out.
On the CM10 thread, it says that I shouldn't be on a ROM based on stock. What I want to do is to flash CM9. But in order to do that, I'm not sure if I'm already on a safe kernel (after rooting using dr.ketan's 1a method (Phil's)).

I'm on this rom, it's a tw based rom based on the leaked jb ls7?

I am not sure what kernel it has. boot into recovery and check what you see.. If it's philz the you can just flash the cm10 on it. else. install philz xxls7

I'm not sure either, I booted into recovery, went into Philz Settings > about, and got CWM base 6.0.1.5, and PhilZ Touch 3.00 (n7000).
And what you're saying is that if I'm on Philz xxls7 kernel, I can go right to flashing CM10, without worrying the "do not flash on stock based ICS fw" (even though I'm on jb)?

Yes.. you are on philz kernel and you can directly install CM10

I'm on a JB rom but it's based on stock, isn't that essentially the same as based on stock ICS?

the warning was when the safe ics kernels were not in effect.

Thanks for the quick reply!! When I get home, I'll try this out!
So what I need to do is
put the zip files onto my SD,
reboot into recovery,
install the rom,
install google apps,
wipe data,
factory reset,
reboot into cm10
I don't need to wipe system/cache/dalvik??

once in recovery
mounts & storage
format/system & data & cache
then install rom & gapps

great. now enjoy the cm10..:thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:

it will depend upon what apps u have installed.
normally it would be around 1 - 1.5 GB but if u have installed bigger apps like games it will gradually increase.
Warning: Never do a factory reset or any kind of wipes while you are in Stock ICS 4.0.4 kernel.
