rooting n1 with 2.3.6

Hi, I'm trying to follow this guys guide to rooting my n1.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1300356
But his website appears to be down and there doesn't appear to be a mirror of his ROM anywhere that I can find. Any chance someone with permissions to post on the dev forums could ping him on his webpage or suggest a mirror somewhere?
UPDATE: 12/11/11
Bexton updated his post to contain another location for the zip file. Follow above link.
Hello. I sent you a PM.
I'm in the same situation, what to do?
The PM only contained a link to a YouTube of someone going through the whole process.
I unlocked the bootloader on my N1 already, and I just need the correct ROM to root the GRK39F firmware. I can get to the bexboot website on google cache. I just need the ROM.
I'll try PMing that bexton guy.
He got back to me and sent me the zip file. the instructions on his website which was available thorough google cache worked perfectly.

Hey guys, I have the same problem. Tried the same method as above. Couldnt find the thread about it.
I Even tried to download the stock firmware from Dr.Ketan's post and use Odin but couldnt extract the files.
Please Help...
Thanks
you need to use jig, if you have raised binary counter, back to stock ROM, can't solve it.
BTW, use winrar/7zip to extract file.

Firstly, Thanks Dr.Ketan.
I am a newbie. Would you be able to share about 'jig' ?
Thanks in advanced again.

Using a jig is unfortunately the only way to reset your Samsung Note into a clean (warranty friendly) status. To be honest... it is some kind of "blind flight" because after loading the old ("wrong") bootloader via ODIN your device will show nothing after the reboot. Could be a little be scary for some people... but it works ;-)

Before I do this, I am going to use Odin to go back to stock.
I downloaded this firmware from your post:
N7000DXLA1 -------2.3.6 2012 January-----N7000OLBKL2-------Malaysia
Questions:
1. Do I need the PDA & CSC files to execute this unroot? Where can I obtain it? Have been searching for hours still cant find it.
2. What is the best way to root it again?
Thank you.

Single file .tar is enough, when u go back to stock with pc odin, it will automatically get unroot.
Installaion guide is there in post #2 from whr u downloaded.
There is best way is zergrush exploit.
Find it from my signature(first link)

What's the difference between rooting via zergrush vs. CF-root? How to cf-root?

What's the difference between rooting via zergrush vs. CF-root? How to cf-root?
I'd like to speed up my Note. Kinda sluggish at stock. Even iPhones are smoother. What is Rocket Rom & Litening Rom? Is it safe? Which is better? or are there any better ones out there?
Just before unrooting I was using AbyssNote2.3, 1.703GHz, alot of heating & no difference that it was earlier. Netchip was smoother.
Thanks
Zergrush n CF root using same exploit to Root. CF root have extra benifit that it pushes CWM along with Root.
Really I never used any custom ROM till day. N it depend on own choice n requirement. You can find details n review of other on corresponding ROM thread, I can't comment much on it.

A successful root method from chinese forum!

A successful root method from chinese forum!
from: http://bbs.gfan.com/android-3604178-1-1.html
The only root method so far, is to exchange the recovery in v20B and install root tools through recovery.
step 1) copy Superuser.zip to the root directory in SD card.
step 2) shut down your OB, take out the battery, press volume + and plug the USB cable (which means enter the S/W mode)
Step 3) extract LGP970.7z and obtain v20.bin and v20v.fls files.
step 4) open B_SmartFlashTool_Extern.exe and select:
ROM copy D/L
cp:V20B.fls
ap:V20B.bin
select mode:normal mode
step 5) click start button to start flashing, all data in OB(sms, contacts, game records) won't be lossed.
After flash procedures, you will come to the recovery interface, then, select install zip from SDcard and choose the superuser.zip that you place before.
Reboot and you got the rooted 2.3.4
All files(superuser, LGP970.7z ) can be downloaded from here:
http://115.com/file/cl3smym3
(for someone who don't know chinese:
after you get into the site, you will see 3 color buttons at the middle
green, blue and red, the download link(grey button) is at the right of the red button)

No, as written in the threads linked by N00BY.
Please read before you post.
Nor the rooted V20b uploaded to the Chinese forum the Hong Kong stock ROM, as reported by some in their replies.
The "new" method posted on the Chinese forum is actually the one posted by SnegovikRZN on xda.
But the poster didn't give proper credit to the source.
The only thing you need, is ubuntu or other linux distributions, the bin files of your firmware (u can get em like this: http://csmg.lgmobile.com:9002/csmg/b2c/client/cs_auth_model_check.jsp?esn=imei) replace IMEI, btw.

Because the one post in xda is using v20B which is equally to the HongKong OB stock rom = v20B, so my question is , is that v20B is the HK's v20B ?

IT DOESNT MATTER which one it is, just download the bin file YOU need, and follow the guide then. Ask in the thread, which version it is. I cant answer this to you, since I am using a N version of GB. I already gave you the link, of how to get the right BIN files, via your IMEI, and if you couldnt get the official update yet, ask another one about it. Or simply try the ROM. It is rooted, so you can enter CWM quickly and also restore the previous version, if needed.

Thank you for your link, I get this sw_url:
but how can I download it?
I copy it to my browser but nothing appear. Thanks for your help

The request for the zip file that you get when making the request with a German IMEI always return a 404 (not found). I wonder where has the user SnegovikRZN taken them from.
Ok, sorry then, I thought LG already released the bin files. I've been wrong there it seems.
Idk where he got em from. Maybe ask him via PM or in his thread.

if I get the file from this:
http://csmg.lgmobile.com:9002/ezls/...IN_LGP970AT-00-V20b-454-XXX-DEC-31-2011+0.zip
Is that I can directly flash the bin file(extract from the above link) by smartflash?
Yes, you can flash the with Smart Flash, just as described here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=22304591&postcount=91 (of course by replacing the names of the fls/bin file with your own).
I would have one request from you, I am not able to download that zip from LG, but if you can, can you please share it somewhere ? I would like to have that in case that i have to bring the telephone back to the shop for warranty - it's a "just in case" scenario .

ok, if I can get the zip file from LG, I will post here
ok, I will post it if I know how to download the zip from LG

[Q] Simple guide for Upgrading (not rooting) to GB?

Hey there,
I know this is a developers forum which is not intended to cover the very basics. However, I've been searching the internet, and here, to no avail, trying to find a simple guide to how to upgrade my LGP970 to Gingerbread. Having a UK version of the phone, no update has yet come through the LG B2C tool -- this tool also consistently fails to open these days (error message: "Please, check your internet line and execute program again" -- infuriating).
So, I'm not looking to root my phone; I'm not interested (for the time being) in CWM. All I'd like is GB official version on my LGP970. I understand I have to download the .kdz file (I'm guessing Europe Open is my best bet). What I don't know is the appropriate way to use this file to upgrade my phone.
There are lots of guides on here, all seemingly aimed at users wishing to root their phones; I can't find anything for those who just want to upgrade without rooting.
I apologise if this is too much of a n00b thing to be asking about, but any help or direction elsewhere would be very much appreciated. Thank you
Go to my guide here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1487105
Scroll down to unbricking, and use the R&D method. First download the UPK (link is there as well) then follow the second link to the work around. Set it all up, download your KDZ, I guess europe open will be fine, flash it and be happy ever after

Well, see there's two problems I have with the Support Tool: 1. I often get the error message I mentioned above; 2. My phone is a UK model for which LG still haven't released v20x, so I can't officially go through that app anyway.
What did you mean about 'KDZ_FW_UPD_EN' ?
