Hi Guys
Sorry if this question has been answered before, but i did try and look for an answer but had no luck. Unfortunely I do have abit of a strange situation.
I updated to an offical Australian vodafone (my provider) ICS rom (GT-N7000B version) through mobile odin a while back from a XSA (AUS) GT-N7000 GB rom. Since i used mobile odin i was able to pass root through to the new rom which was great.
Since the release of JB has come out I am wondering since I know about the brickbug etc, how will I update my phone to JB since i am on a stock ICS kernel? As it was to my understanding I cannot flash anything on a stock ICS kernel due to the flash bug?
Can i actually use pc odin on a stock ICS kernel and flash over the top to JB or will I have to re-flash GB or ICS GT-N7000 model rom and then use a safe kernel to flash to get clockwork mod and then go over that to get to JB?
Any advice?
If you want just stock, i.e. no root or anything, just go back to gb and flash official JB through PC Odin.
Alternatively, you could also straightaway flash official JB through PC Odin.(Not recommended)

Hello everyone,
I have some questions about my current setup for the Galaxy Note. First of all, I have the stock firmware installed with Android 2.3.6 (if I'm correct that that;'s the latest version). Together with the latest AbyssNote 3.5 as my kernel.
I have updated the kernel with the Mobile ODIN app, since I have a MacBook and no Windows installation... Anyways, my questions are this:
1) Will I be able to update to ICS as soon as it gets released by Samsung with the current custom kernel, or do I have to flash it back yo stock by then? And if so, how?
2) When updating to a custom rom, for example, RocketROM inside Mobile ODIN, will I lose all my data/apps and such? Or will it be as a upgrade so I don't have to reinstall anything?
3) When ICS would come out and I would have a custom rom + kernel, how do I proceed further? Do I need to wait for a custom ICS version to update to? Or do I have to revert everything to stock and such before I could update to the stock ICS?
$) And at last, when I would decide to flash my Note back to stock from a custom ROM/kernel, how do I do this without losing all my data/apps?
Thanks for your answers!
Regards,
berserkrico
Dear folks
When Samsung released their ICS update I was so exited but it wouldn't update mine since mine has csc lux so I had to wait till they released it for my country.
So the German version came online and I used PC Odin to get my phone to ICS with the German release. (So I flashed it? New to this)
Now I'm assuming that ICS is out for my country OTA or with Kies. So I want to use one of both to upgrade my phone so I have the stock and don't risk anything.
So you've probably seen the question coming, how do I get back to stock GB so I can update it afterwards with Kies or OTA.
Please take note that I'm a complete newb in this.
Thanks in advance!
You will have to use PC Odin to go back to stock Gingerbread.
Go here to find your stock rom for your country and download it:

You probably had to Odin to the ICS version you are on now, so if you remember how you did that, it's the same thing in Odin.
After you have that stock Gingerbread you should be able to check for updates and get your official OTA or Kies ICS.

You *must* flash a safe kernel first, reboot the phone again into download mode then you can flash your old GB ROM.
If you don't do that, you can trigger the emmc bug in your current ICS kernel and fry the internal memory, unless you're using a CM9-based kernel then you're safe.

Could you translate to noob friendly language? With a safe kernel you mean a safe rom or? I googled DL mode so got this and the last part to but the other piece of text is unclear

I am on rooted stock GB LA6 with Abyss kernel 4.2. As I have bricked my phone in the past and have a replaced one now, I am a little caution about ICS.
Could someone answer the following questions?
- What is the safest way to upgrade to the official ICS UK ROM?
- Is the ICS UK ROM wipe or non-wipe?
- If I will lose root after upgrading, what is the safest way to root the official ICS UK ROM?
- Will I be able to flash a new kernel and recovery on the new ICS ROM?
- What are the best (safest) kernel and recovery for ICS?
- And, finally, for safety, how to revert back to stock UK GB ROM if ICS doesn't work out?
I am sure these questions have been answered somewhere else, but again, it would be helpful to have these answers in one place, in an easy-to-follow language. Please be as clear as possible in your responses as these answers will be read by newbies, too. Thanks.

Its non wipe. I had stock gb la6. Upgraded via kies to lq2 ics. Still had all data. Then I rooted using cwm method. Flashed icstunner.

+1 to all those questions.
I just flashed the original rooted LC1 , gb rom from here, added CWM and abyss kernel and all is good. However , I am downloading now the stock ICS LQ2 rom and don't know if it is ok to flash it via PC odin, putting the 3 files in PDA, CSC, MODEM, or is it some special procedure I need to follow ?
Hey Guys,
i am coming from galaxy spica (after 2,5 year of rooting) now i have bought galaxy note in Austria with simlock.
So i have make a root, use apk Galaxy_S Unlock and back unroot (i have still 1,5 year garanty, but i am not sure after this unlocking
I had kernel unrootable LA4,
so 1. I made via odin SGN_XX_OXA_KJ1_FACTORYFS
2. CFROOt_for_kernel_KJ1.rar
3. CF-Root-SGN_XX_OXA_LA4-v5.0-CWM5.zip
5. unroot via DooMLoRD_v1_UNROOTING
but what i dont understand (on galaxy spica was jut froy 2.2 and many difrent kernel or mod)
how or which version of kernel i can put now?
I would like to update on 4.0.4 (first 2.3.6) via kies or OTA doesnt work. I would like to keep without root.
Now i am downloading 2.3.6. - N7000XXKKA_N7000OXXKK5_ATO.zip but after reading many thereads i am not sure if i can put any kernel on KJ1?
Thank you for a little explanation.
I would like to know if on kernel KL1 (2.3.5) is possible to put any kernel ??? (4.0.4) ?
Go back to stock GB ROM using PC odin.Instructions are in dr.ketan's thread.
Update via Kies or flash stock ICS 4.0.4 using PC Odin again.
What a mess..
Go back to stock gb.. Then flash any known ics safe kernel (notecore/speedmod) via odin(you already gotta have the custom rom in your sd so once the phone restart go straight to cwm and wipe/data/cache/dalvik) recovery keys are volume up+power+home
Then flash any desired(custom) rom after that run triangle away to get rid of the yellow triangle and that's it(encourage you to try cleanote rom its super fast and as close to stock as posible with Notecore kernel) the phone flies and battery its great
Stock its laggy and loaded with crap and the stock kernels are unsafe to wipe/factory reset due to the Emmc brick bug..
Avoid stock kernels as much as you would avoid walking through shyt

Thank you guys,

I want to flash the stock jb rom with kies because i am selling my note to get a 32 gb one
Kies will install the update even on custom kernel. But to get the update you need to be on the German ICS rom.
