It's been a long time since I was last seen here, I've been busy working and studying, but now that it's vacation I'd very much like to update my ROM.
Currently I'm on Kernel version: 3.0.15-I9220ZCLP5-CL295568
And my ROM is ICS Stunner Beta 5.0 (yes, a pretty old one)
CWM: v5.0.2.7
So, the question is.. How do I get from that ROM, to a new, updated one?
I've been looking around but there are no specific guides on how to do this.. And I rooted mine back when I was on 2.3.4.
Honestly, I have no idea what I should get back to before putting a new ROM over it.
It'd be great if any of you could help me out describing how it's done! I would really appreciate the effort.
Thank you in advance, and hopefully I'll be able to get the best out of my Note again after this!
Use PC Odin to flash a stock gingerbread ROM, then root and install clockworkmod recovery, download and place whatever ROM you'd like to flash on your external sd card or internal memory, lastly boot into recovery (hold volume up + home + power buttons) and factory rest, wipe cache partition and dalvik cache then flash the ROM and reboot.

Can I go directly from a GB ROM to a ICS/JB ROM? Or do I need to flash some ICS update first?
Thank you for the explanation thus far!

You can go directly from a rooted GB ROM to a ICS ROM. I wont recommend JB rom as of now as its a preview and not a daily driver.
No flashing of ICS repacks. Forget them. They are now history
Alright thank you.
By the way, I'm on the LP5 Kernel from Stunner ROM, which had alot of bricks when you flashed stuff.
Is this still an issue? If so.. How do I work around it? Because I don't want to brick it obviously.
Bump .
Nobody has an answer for me? Please?

I just explained to you the "100% safe way" to go from a stock ics rom to a custom rom in my last post. Stock gingerbread first through pc odin, root, install clockworkmod recovery, flash custom ics/jb rom of choice.

Follow these instructions.
If you have CWM installed and your device have full root.
Reboot into CWM Recovery
Install a safe kernel (hardcore, notecore, cf root, franco etc) or flash abyss 4.2 redpill recovery.
Reboot recovery
Now full wipe for a clean install.(cache/dalvik /data)
Flash rom
Reboot system
Done.

So I wouldn't even need to go back to GB if I follow your instructions sahilarora2003?
And you install a kernel just by flashing a .zip file right?
+1 I would hold off on the Jelly.....nothing exciting now. Give it a little more time....like another 3-5 updates I flashed CM10 and lasted 10mins before I came back to ICS. :good:

Hi Guys,
Can someone guide / help me on how to upgrade my N7000 unit to JB and still rooted.
I'm still using GingerBread ROM with AbyssNote Kernel and already Rooted. Also installed with CWM
I want to know the step in upgrading it to Custom JB ROMs (MKalter JB, RocketRom)
Any suggestion will greatly appreciated.
Kindly refer on the images regarding details of my beloved SG Note
Thanks
You can not go from gingerbread to jb.
You need to download an ics rom ,like rocket with root and cwm. Do full wipe. Flash ics rom.
If that's cool download eybees jb
Full wipe and flash that .if root has gone open up SU and update the binary. The app will do this .just press on it .
Do not try skipping the ics . You will brick your phone ! Hope I helped

who says you can't go from gb to jb
i was on rooted stock gb and i flashed leaked stock jb over it and everything is working fine..
why do you think that ics has to be flashed ?
infact i did ask here at xda before flashing and nobody told me to flash ics over gb first

Same here. I downgraded to GB yesterday to SIM unlock my phone and went back directly to JB the second it was done.
Safe kernel is the only thing that matters, Rom base has nothing to do with it.

Downloading the RocketRom V1 JB (by Eybee1970 -Thanks!)
Currently, I'm using the AbbysNote 4.2 Kernel I just need to follow this steps below and everything will be fine. Right?
copy ROM on your USB-storage
boot in Recovery
FullWipe (also when coming from other Sammy-JB-ROM!)
Format SYSTEM!!!
flash ROM (it will reboot automatically in most cases)
after initial setup, open Super SU-app and you have to update SU-bin (app will do that for you if necessary!)
*FullWipe - clear cache, clear Dalvik, format system, factory restore?
Thank You..

Semaphore kernel is inside the CM10 zip so it will get automatically installed when your flash the zip.
Yes CWM recovery is built into cf root kernel.
Also when you flash the Cm10 zip remember your phone will restart almost straight away and go into boot loop. This is because the partition layout is being changed.
Just reinsert the battery and boot into recovery again. Flash the cm10 zip again and this time it will finish installation.
& its no problem

Hi
I updated CWM to 6.??? to try a KitKat ROM but I want to go back to a Gingerbread one. I don't know how to downgrade the CWM to 5. When I try and install a CWM 5 zip file via CWM it gives me lots of errors.
Is it possible to downgrade the CWM?
thanks
Paul
You can either flash stock rom via odin on comp and reroot, or download and install mobile odin ported to our device. And then flash the odin flashable cwm.tar file through mobile odin.

You cannot downgrade from android 4.x to android 2.x. That's because 4.0.4 and higher roms have a different bootloader. So don't try to flash gingerbread over kitkat, but if you tried and your phone didn't bricked let me know!!!

I know well what CWM stand for and what it is. I know he was asking how to downgrade from CWM 6 to CWM 5 but he was asking also for a downgrade from KitKat to Gingerbread. I just said that it could brick the phone.
For the CWM downgrade you must:
1) reboot in recovery mode
2) install the latest PX recovery for galaxy ace
3) reboot recovery
4) install CWM5
5) reboot recovery
6) done!

Actually downgrading from KitKat to Gingerbread will not brick the phone as long as you flash it through odin. Then again flashing any Gingerbread custom rom will not brick your phone as they are made to work only on CWM5. Hence flashing Gingerbread custom rom through CWM6 will only give you errors. Its always safe to install Gingerbread stock rom using odin. Here is the link on how to install stock rom using odin along with all firmwares and drivers (check "Preparations" section),
Flash stock rom on Samsung Galaxy Ace S5830 using odin/
Once installed, go to recoverymod and do a wipe data/ factory reset & wipe cache (otherwise bootloop might occur). Then restart. Now you have successfully flashed the stock rom. Here is the link for rooting and installing CWM5 on Samsung Galaxy Ace,
How To Root and Unroot Samsung Galaxy Ace?
CWM 5.0.2.6 fix for Samsung Galaxy Ace S5830
Also if you still want to use KitKat, then you can use the KitKat version flashable through CWM5 by @Salim El Yabouri. Here is the link,
KitKat for all

About your remarks:
1. cwm 6.0.4.8/philz edition did not work. a) it has mount problems; b) it prevented android 2.3.5 from booting.
2. You, before editing, said recovery is independent of the rom on the phone. If this is the case, then why all cwm 6 versions are in trouble with /system on my phone? and why mardon said that won't work with stock rom?

Cwm 6 or 5 cannot mount /system /data or /cache bcoz cwm cannot handle samsung's filesystem rfs used in galaxy ace. This problem has no solution except changing to custom rom or using cfroot kernel which has ability to change fs type to ext4.also it is quite better than stock kernel. Proceed with caution. Also i think you need android 2.3.6 for cf root kernel. You can download official android 2.3.6 from sammobile.com and cf root kernel for s5830
from Google. Also do try cwm 5.0.2.6 once it can work.
And btw flashing 2.3.6 will wipe data cache root everything.
If you choose to flash 2.3.6, try cf auto root kernel. Cm roms use ext4 by default with quite better kernels.

1. CWM 5.0.2.6 does not have any mounting problem.
2. I do not want changing to custom rom.
3. Can "cfroot kernel" be used along with my official 2.3.5 rom?
4. What caution do you mean when you say "Proceed with caution"?
5. If I install 2.3.6, then will I have "cfroot kernel" and consequently can I install CWM 6 without mounting problem?
Hi Guys. short (and maybe dumb) question but i have to be sure before messing up the phone of my friend.
I would like to flash CM11 nightlies with clockworkmod on a Samsung Galaxy Note GT-N7000.
I have read several tutorials for flashing the GT-N7000 and i'm not sure which is the best way to do it.
It is neccesary to update or change the (current stock) kernel? Or is it possible to just copy the recovery and ROM to the SD card, boot into download mode, install from there?
Sorry i only have experience with flashing my HTC One X.
Thanks in advance,
Greetings
I am in the same possition. A friend of mine wants to help him install a custom rom to his n7000.
He has the stock samsung rom and the phone is LAGGY!!
I only have experience with flashing cm11 to my own galaxy s3 with philz touch recovery.
I am reading for 4 hours now and i am lost...
Should i only use TWRP?
but twrp has a version only for cm 10...(i havent found by searching any cm11 twrp version for n7000)
Should i use cm 10 then and all is ok??
Thanks a lot
I am reading things about installing kernel for recovery (philz touch)
After installing that, its just wipe data / cache and install Rom from Zip.
Im still bit confused about the rooting process -> Trough Zip or trough Odin.
I hope some1 can help me.
First you need root. Then you can flash a custom rom.
To root your device tgere a several ways possible. All written here in sticky threads.
Easy way via Philz Kernel. You will get custom recovery and root in in step. What Rom is currentky installed? Last five digits are enough.

Search for XXLTA Kernel in PhilZ thread and flash this one. All written in PhilZ thread. After that take your new Rom an follow the instructions in the thread again. For CM 11 you need also Raw4 kernel first. Only after that flash the custom rom. But that's all written 100000 times here....

Yes i know, to install play store and other applications. But for the flashing part, that is enough right? The kernel, ROM and Philz Recovery?

yes that is enough but gapps are usually installed right after the ROM so having it together with the other files is a good idea.
- transfer ROM, Kernels to internal or external SD.
- flash Philz JB kernel compatible with your device [ follow the instruction in Philz kernel thread on how to flash with no yellow triangle ] and reboot then verify that root is working (just try and give a file explorer root access or install an app like root checker from playstore)
- Once root is verified reboot to recovery (you should now be in philz touch recovery) I recommend you take a nandroid backup but the choice is yours
- Wait for the backup to complete or if you are skipping backup then
a) wipe data factory reset
b) wipe cache
c) format system by going into mounts and storage
d) wipe dalvik cache
- flash raw kernel and reboot recovery.
- Now in TWRP recovery (you can again choose to do steps a to d which is totally optional) find and flash the ROM you want
- flash gapps
- reboot
That should do it
and now just in case you don't like what you flashed you can always go back to your ROM if you took a nandroid backup as suggested in the installation steps
hope it helps
Restore instructions :
I don't know if CWM recovery takes he same path to backup as Philz recovery but if it does it pretty simple
- just reboot to recovery and do the steps a to d from the above installation steps and restore backup
But in case you are not able to find backup file in CWM then do this
- reboot to recovery
- flash Philz kernel (same one you flashed during installation )
-go to advanced and select "reboot recovery"
- now you should be in Philz recovery again
- do steps from a to d again and restore
Simple

yes that is enough but gapps are usually installed right after the ROM so having it together with the other files is a good idea.
- transfer ROM, Kernels to internal or external SD.
- flash Philz JB kernel compatible with your device [ follow the instruction in Philz kernel thread on how to flash with no yellow triangle ] and reboot then verify that root is working (just try and give a file explorer root access or install an app like root checker from playstore)
- Once root is verified reboot to recovery (you should now be in philz touch recovery) I recommend you take a nandroid backup but the choice is yours
- Wait for the backup to complete or if you are skipping backup then
a) wipe data factory reset
b) wipe cache
c) format system by going into mounts and storage
d) wipe dalvik cache
- flash raw kernel and reboot recovery.
- Now in TWRP recovery (you can again choose to do steps a to d which is totally optional) find and flash the ROM you want
- flash gapps
- reboot
That should do it
and now just in case you don't like what you flashed you can always go back to your ROM if you took a nandroid backup as suggested in the installation steps
hope it helps

Very clear! Thank you very much. Sorry for being a noob with this but it i think you cant be too sure when you are flashing kernels. Got my Nexus S bricked once while i was flashing a custom kernel.
And i dont have any experience with flashing samsung phone. Only HTC.
Thanks again and have a good day!

I was in the same boat 2 years ago so i understand the situation I am glad i could help and if you are coming from nexus I am pretty sure you won't have any issues at all. Just one or two flashes and you will know everything
and who knows I might need your help one day as I am thinking of buying the N6 myself
oh and btw let me tell you that recovery and kernel are in the same partition for N7000 so you can't have "this kernel and that recovery" here as you would in other devices. Thus if you need a certain recovery then you have to flash a certain kernel and if you need a certain kernel then it will install the recovery that comes with it overwriting the previous one. Also even if you flash just recovery somehow, the device will restore the one with the kernel upon reboot
So yeah

In the guide below
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=53346482
it clearly says ''-Download Raw Kernel r5 and copy it to either your internal or external memory''
You have downloaded raw_kernel_r4_j43
Why is that?
Am i missing something?
My friend's n7000 runs on 4.1.2 as well and my goal is to install cm11 as well.
Saying that, which is the appropriate raw_kernel???
The kernel code name should match the currently installed TW rom (4.1.2) or should it match the CM11 rom you intend to flash (4.4.4)????
to answer my own question : In XxPixX's quide of course it says r5 so 4.4.4 )
Anyway the kernel that you have downloaded is neither r5 nor r1 (i beleive that r1 is for 4.1)
Thanks, i hope someone with more experiense would clarify that!!

yes you have to download raw kernel because CM 11 or Android Kitkat requires SE Linux compatible recovery and raw kernel is the one that has this compatibility.
If you skip raw kernel then installation will fail giving you "status 7 installation aborted" error.
Downloading the latest Raw kernel for KitKat should do it just read in the kernel thread and download the latest one for kk.
the kernel code name should match the ROM (4.1.2) the one you currently have. Download the philz JB kernel for your JB ROM(follow the steps given in philz kernel thread)
There is no requirement as such for 4.4.4 ROM

Raw Kernel 5 (download link: http://ge.tt/5fBuPYn1/v/1?c ) is the good one right. Think that should do the trick. I see some people just flashing the philz touch cmw, and then the Rom, without the kernel. Several video's on youtube confirming that. So It's quite confusing 20 people explaining how to install CM11 and root on Samsung Note GT-N7000

yes that should do it, download the k44 one
I haven't seen any videos about that but it is possible to do so but that's just using the recovery temporarily to flash a certain ROM but in the end that recovery is replaced by the ROMs kernel recovery its the same thing we are doing by using raw kernel here in these installation steps but its true that it gets a little confusing
I have updated my previous reply. Please refresh the page to see the explanation
