[Q] upgrade from 2.2 to cyanogen 10.1 - Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hi,
i currently have cognition 4.5.3 (Firmware Version 2.2)
can i upgrade to CyanogenMod 10.1 without upgrading bootloaders/kernels.
i do have ClockWorkMod installed and the phone is rooted.
the reason i'm asking is my phone usb doesn't seem to work and it seems that's the only way we can upgrade bootloaders.
thanks

Not sure i would chance it, because if something goes wrong and u get stuck in a bootloop or whatever, then u would maybe need to get into download mode and reflash stock...which u would not be able to do in ur situation. Imho.

Don't Try directly.. you'll get your phone bricked for sure. Try installing Cyanogenmod 7 and then upgrading it to latest CM version. Miui installation is also s direct option here...

There are some specific instructions and cm7 isn't part of it.
Best way from Froyo is Odin kk4 with bootloaders, flash corn kernel with Odin 1.85, flash CM9 and then CM10 twice (cause it has to rebuild its partition).

more over sammobile doesnot show any OTA updates as well after DDLR9
havent seen that as of yet, but advised is to use mobilebodin, flash kernel of rom your rocking, then hope ota update goes well and you maintain root so you can mobile odin the kernel of choice back.
Also if not already done, bit unrelated but make efs backup and safe on and off the phone

I would suggest let out go.. Don't update.. As the update doesn't add any new features.. You well loose root if you update visa kites.. I was on ddlr 9 with philz kernel too.. Updated visa kies.. Lost root..

Galaxy Note not booting

Hi all,
I'm a little scared because I wanted to install a new ROM this morning.
I've done as usual by making a backup etc. .. When making a factory wipe, the phone restart and nothing since. Unable to start, impossible to put a ROM via ODIN (it stuck on <ID:0/006> factoryfs.img
<ID:0/006> NAND Write Start! )
I do not know what to do. I feel like I have no partition system. Is it possible?
Thanks for your response
what rom were you on, what kernel. how did you start the install?

It's possible you're bricked as you were on stock ics kernel. Flash gb rom using pc odin see how it goes and report any errors.

No the Note was rooted, it's sure . I brought to pass it as collateral
just wanted to know if the CWM was built in the kernel or was it a CWM.zip file. if it was the zip file, most probably the phone is bricked

CWM Help

I rooted my phone then I wanted to install CWM to install a custom ROM , I followed some instructions about ROM Manager but it says my phone is not listed above ....
Tips?

[Q] Phone keeps saying unknown volume for path?

Hi guys , I had Miui installed on my i9000 and did a reset to wipe the phone so I could give it to my friend to use for a while. After the wipe...it began bootloop so I reinstalled clockwork mod and now whenever I try wipe anything or try mount a storage I get the message " unknown volume for path " and that comes up quite a few lines. I'm guessing my partition has been wiped etc so I need to flash a new rom on here. Phone doesn't boot into anything apart from recovery. Any idea's how?
Thanks !

Do u have opened phone...i have one solution for this but it is temporary not permanent...Go to Download mode for 3 min and after 3 minutes restart your phone again..cwm bootloop occurrs when i9000 is unable to read internal memory...
Other pption is to apply dbdata.rfs.tar through odin..this method is also temporary..phone will work but when u shutdown it and restart after 1 to 2 minutes cwm bootloop again comes..

Hi mate , I found a solution to our problems. Easiest way to sort it out is basically download Gingerbread for the i9000 , then flash over the phone using Odin. Once that's done , install Clockworkmod recovery. This install a custom rom such as MIUI or CM10. I'd say MIUI is the easiest rom that works straight away. Or you can keep gingerbread.
Hope I helped

you need 2.3.6 bootloader to get jelly bean working, so visit My Android Collections and use the JVU 2.3. 6 ROM with 512 PIT , root and CWM kernel as your base to upgrade from rescue and recovery kits section ...upgrade to ICS first than to a Jelly Bean ROM. But First backup your efs folder
your problem is due to wrong version of CWM used in 2.3.5
Ok thnx very much for your help...

[Q] Note slowed down after upgrading to Jelly Bean.

Hello guys,
I use Galaxy Note-N7000 and the issue with my device is ever since I upgraded to Jelly Bean 4.1.2,my device has slowed down,I am now starting to think its because of Note unable to handle Jelly Bean.I even tried factory resetting and re-installing Jelly bean a couple of times,but it hasnt helped.I also see RAM consumption being very high with only a few apps on my device.
What could be slowing down my device?I was told Kernels speed up our devices,will it work?If so can you guys recommend me any good kernels and steps to install them?
I would really appreciate any help,guys.Please be kind
Thank you!
That's normal. Whether use ics or higher than 4.1.2.
It will always lag.
To flash custom kernel do it via Odin or root Your phone and install kernel from cwm.
Sent from note, a phone like never before
That's stock jb for you, it sucks. If you want jb then go for cm or paranoid.

Flashing through Odin shouldn't need root, just USB debugging enabled. I have never flashed anything via goo manager, but if You will get the flashable file You will be able to flash it then. And it will change the cwm.
To download kernels just go to android development section for our service and search the forum for "kernel" in the topic. Our You can also Google "kernel n7000"
