I currently have a rooted phone with custom 2.2.1 based rom.
CWM recovery is also installed.
I'd like to know if I can flash a stock rom via recovery.
You need Odin/heimdall to flash a stock ROM. Look in the development section stickies, or do an official update
Sent from my CM9 ICS i897 Captivate
So if I downloaded I897UCKJ2.rar I can only flash it via ODIN ?
You are on Froyo bootloader...with froyo rom...for GB roms u have to flash GB bootloader...there is a whole thread in Dev section with different options to flash GB...I would suggest flash KK4 with bootloader and then Kernel with CWM built in...and u will be good...NOTE: Falshing bootloader might brick your phone...but u just have to do it once...
If you just want the latest "stock" gingerbread you can just use the samsung kies mini to get kk4 and it will give you bootloaders and the stock rom
hello guys ... i need a help to flash this rom ... but situation is.....

now i am with custom ics firmware... so can i flash this gb custom rom ???
if yes how ??? like again using abyss kernal...full wipe and flash any custom gb rom ?
switcing from custom ics to gb will give problem
Which ICS custom ROM are you on?
You can use PC Odin to go back to Gingerbread and then root it and flash a custom GB rom.
Or you can flash Abyss and then reboot recovery and flash a gingerbread custom rom. If you aren't on a stock ICS rom, you can probably just flash gingerbread rom from CWM (like if you are using CM9, franco kernel, or speedmod kernel).

This rom uses an unsafe kernel but for now there is no evidence that a kernel flash can hardbrick the phone. However, I think it's safer flash a secure one (like last speedmod or franco's which should be safe) with odin or mobile odin (extract the .zip until you have te zimage, then flash it), then flash a GB rom.
Otherwise, you can still flash a GB stock rom DIRECTLY ROOTABLE with odin (or MO), then obtain root + cwm and finally flash a gb custom rom with cwm safely.
Gingerbread custom ROMs
Hello Friends, I have asked this question before in another thread but unfortunately there have been no responses.
What are the various Gingerbread custom ROMs available for the Samsung Galaxy Note GT-N7000? CyanogenMod 7 is based on Gingerbread but unfortunately the Galaxy Note is not officially supported.
I am presently on stock Gingerbread and I will be rooting my device in the coming few days. Having played around with stock Gingerbread, I would like to do the same with custom Gingerbread firmwares.
One more query, considering my current Android version is 2.3.6, am I subjected to using a custom ROM which is 2.3.6 or am I free to use any 2.3.x based?
I humbly request you all to respond to these queries of mine. Awaiting your apt replies.
Currently running Ultimate N700 XXLSC JellyBean 4.1.2 v5.1 and baseband N7000XXLSC and Kernal Version 3.0.31-593490. I want to return it to stock as I can't use Sky Go. Do I need to downgrade to ICS or GB? any links to files would be great trying to do this whilst sat at my desk at work today so can't spend alot of time searching the forums
you can download the stock ICS firmware from samfirmware.com and install it using PC odin. (dont do any wipes while on stock ICS kernel. )
after install using Odin you might need to do a factory reset to get the phone to boot properly.. that time install Philz kernel for the ICS rom you chose using stock recovery/

Not necessary but possible. Downloading and using a ICS-based stock Rom saves a bit of time and work.
But for SkyGo (in UK) you have to stay with the unchanged stock - or SkyGo won't work.
hello everyone
my note running jelly bean German stock
and rooted with speedmod kernal

Hungary 2013 May N7000XXLT5 N7000OXXLT2

So last week, to save my near bricked device I used PC Odin to Flash a GB Rom. The device works fine now, with all root privileges. I ran titanium backup and installed all of my apps from the previous rom. But i can't seem to install a new rom using the recovery mode route. Whenever I try to install a new rom (GB, ICS OR JB) using recovery, I get boot loop or get stuck on the setup screen. Info on the rom I'm using right now -
Build Number- Gingerbread.XXKJ1
Baseband Version N7000XXLB2
Kernel Version- [email protected]#2
Android Version- 2.3.5
I want to install an JB AOSP rom. Please give me step by step instruction on how to do it.
First update the stock firmware to JB and then flash the compatible PhilZ kernel and try flashing. Flashing on ICS or JB is more secure and safe.

How do I update to JB?? I went to settings>>About Phone>>Software update>>Update. It says no update available.
Flash a stock JB ROM thru ODIN. Read dr.ketan's thread in original Android development forum and download an ICS/JB stock ROM from there or sammobile.com and flash using ODIN. Do NOT do any wipes on the GB stock kernel, may ruin the device.

the 2nd post has the GB roms.
Also visit sammobile.com for more ROMs, in case the ROM for your region isn't there.
