[Q] Return to stock - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I know there's lots of thread asking how to return to stock but please read on. I updated to CM10 a while ago but my phone kept freezing so I changed to the ULTIMATE jellbean rom but my phone still kept freezing. Today I decided to return to the original GB stock rom to try and fix the issue.
When I flashed the ROM in Odin it got stuck at FactoryFS :S, this resulted in a semi-brick and I had to rebuild the partitions with ADB. After unbricking I installed Rocketrom from my SD card but it cannot install apps and give me a german error message saying something about encryption and factory resets every time. Now if i try to flash aything through CWM it just hangs at installing and does nothing, please help

Have you tried fully wiping and installing the rom?
Also, that's a nightly CyanogenMod rom. What did you do when you tried to install it?

[Q] N7000 boots but stacks at home screen on every rom i try

I was on MidTeam 1.3. i decided to change my lcd density via an app and this messed up everything. i went to CWM and do a wipe/factory reset. After this the system failed. I flashed a GB rom via Heimdall, everything went well, the phone booted as usually, i've seen the "click android to start" screen but when i clicked on it phone freezed. I tried to flash different ROMs both customs and stocks, they are all being flashed via heimdall succesfully but stacked at the same place. I finally flashed CM9 (again via heimdall). It booted normally, i saw the lock screen, i unlocked it by touching the screen then the phone freezed again. I made a search on the forum but did not find a similar case. Can anybody help? CWM is working fine, i can do wipe/factory reset or mount any partition.

see if anything in my signature can help you... good luck!!!
Thank you for the answer. I've succesfully flashed LPY rom from the list you provided the phone restarted, boot animation is ok, then the phone stacked at samsung logo. I've waited like 45 min but nothing has changed. I gave a try with a gingerbread rom but the odin process was freezed during datafs. I'll try another GB and if same thing happens, will try LPY of LPF once again.

It looks like you have got a Superbrick on your hands, mate.
It looks so, but as the phone opens both in download and recovery mode and stock lpy rom can be flashed, i still keep the hope for a possible miracle :/
Happy End
After trying hundreds way, my galaxy note is working now.
every rom i try to flash via Odin had some issues. LPY was flashed with succes but stack at boot.
LPF was not able to write DataFS
but i was able to enter CWM. So i flashed abbys kernel. Then i realised that wipe/data factory reset was working.
I formated /data and /system
then i mounted /data
reboot in recovery
again i mounted/data and then flash darky's rom. Everything looks running properly now.
Never ever i'll try a lpy rom
dont try LPF and LPY roms for now..
dont know why they kept making roms for it despite the constant warning... i guess a lot of people love the thrill of bricking expensive things.. lol..

[Q] Help with a possible softbrick?

Hey guys,
Alright so, I flashed RocketROM ICS v1 perfertly fine from a GB rom on my Galaxy Note N7000 the other day but I decided I wanted to try out a new modem for the phone. LA4 I think it was.
Flashed that fine and made nandroid backups beforehand just in case. Now I didn't like it all that much, signal was abit choppy etc etc so I decided to restore back to my old backup I made before.
However, during that restore process, my phone just kept restarting itself in the middle of the store, whilst it was restoring the system folder. So I was like ???, and the phone wouldn't start up again, so I kept trying to restore but no luck. The restarts only happened during restores. (and from what I know now, when I'm trying to flash something big (like a new ROM) via CMW)
So I thought, I'll just flash stock LPY ICS rom using Odin and start over again. But during the flashing, it gets stuck at "NAND write start" at about 80% repeatedly. Obviously by now the phone won't start so...
I was just wondering my options here?
(I still have download mode and recovery to use, however I'm all out of ideas )

[Q] the process com.android.phone has stopped unexpectedly

I'm currently running the latest CM9 on it with moboot... It seems like every time it boots up it pops up with that error message and literally won't go away and you have to reboot the device.. the only way I've found to temporarily fix it is to just wipe cache.... but it always comes back.
Is there any way to prevent this from popping up? It happened when I was on Classicnerd BUTTA too.
Wipe the system and caches, then reflash
I had this problem as well a while back. Wiping caches and reflashing the ROM worked for me.
And you guys didn't have the problem again, after that?
Help manually moving contacts and choosing a JB ROM.
If a pro could help me out I would appreciate it very much. I have been trying to move from a dangerous ICS build to JB and I am having this same problem.
My N7000 previously had this on it:
android 4.03
radio 19220zclp6
kernal version 3.0.15-i9220zclp1-cl131270 (bad ics kernal)
build number midnote 2.0 iml74k.zclp1
So I used ODIN to flash it to a GB rom but I got the com.android.process error and my phone would lock up.
So then I found this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424997 and flashed this ROM "N7000UBLR3 N7000UVOLR1 - Download - Argentina" from the bottom of the page. I wiped only the the cache (not the phone reset) and flashed it again but I still get the process error and phone locking up. I don't even know if this ROM is a safe ROM!!
Am I even on a safe kernal now? kernal n7000ublr3-cl890184 build imm76d.ublr3
What I need help doing is the following.
1. Before doing a full wipe, I need to either manually save my contacts to my PC or back them up. (no apps work but my pc can browse my phone) If I knew where my contacts were located, maybe I can manually copy them to my pc? So any help saving data from a partially unusable phone would help.
2. Flash to a safe GB rom, so I can then do the full wipes safely and then flash to a stable JB rom. (I have no clue which roms to choose here and need help).
Thanks for any help..

[Q] Won't come out of CWM recovery

It all started when I was on SlimRom 4.2.2 build 6.2. I noticed that my camera was crashing with a message "Unfortunately, Gallery stopped working." I tried to correct this problem by moving to build 6.0 but it didn't work. Then I tried to go to ICS but instead of booting, my phone remained in CWM recovery. I've tried hundreds of things after that but my phone is stuck in recovery. I think the partitions are messed up. I cannot mount /emmc. It says Error mounting /emms whenever I try to mount it. I can connect using adb and I can go into download mode. I've tried flashing stock firmware with partitioning on using odin. But it then boots in stock recovery and cannot access sdcard.
Is there a way to do a completely clean install after creating partitions from scratch and formatting and mounting them from scratch? Is there any other way to recover phone?
Regards,
YRS
Try to reinstall the ROM again or twice.
It should've happened because of the partition and it need to be reflashed to fix.
Darky's Rom Resurrection solved my problem after 2 weeks of struggling Thanks Darky.
