you can't directly go to gb with this way.if you can go to download mode flash jb again it will be back.and downgrade it with the way exists in general forum but if you can't go download mode you bricked it and go to service centers.

If you can go to download mode, I think that can fix it.
I couldn't boot once when I accidentally flash GB instead of new JB version. It couldn't boot, and go to recovery. Just downlaod mode. So I flashed JB again, and all was ok. I think it will be ok when you use guide for going back to GB now.

[Q] Help update to ics and root for unlock

Hi and sry if my post is like many others, but i need strait answers for my particular software version.
So i am running Galaxy Note N7000 is rooted and unlocked with Galaxy_S Unlock apk i think (was locked on SRF France)
Android Version :2.3.6
Baseband version :N7000BUKK1
Kernel version : 2.6.35.7-N7000XXKKA-CL726566
[email protected] #2
Build number :GINGERBREAD.XXKKA
My question is:
Can i upgrade the software from the phone menu Software Upgrade? it is always asking me if i want to install or not.
Can i brick my phone using this method?
If i manage to get ICS on the device will i still be able to use unlock .apk on 4.0.x ?
I use vodafone romania sim
Should i use Odin or Kies or phone upgrade from menu?
Ihave downloaded all the stock roms for my country and carrier (Vodafone)
BTW mobile odin said there is something wrong with my partition, and emmc check will leave black screen and crash after a few seconds (is this something to be worried?)
What method do you guys recommend ?
Thanx in advance !

if emmc check crashes or hangs that means there are corrupted blocks.

it is best to upgrade via odin .. then comes kies but i am not sure if installing it will lock ur device again.

So i should go ahead and put the stoc ics firmware for my country and update with odin over my rooted gb 2.3.6, no harm will occur?
Should i put the .pit for 16GB when using odin or just put the fw in PDA and hit Start?
I asked if the unlock apk is compatible with ICS also...but i will find out soon )
Thanx
Just read first line on my signature and flash ICS using Odin
I recommend go clean(first wipe cache and data before flashing ICS) and don't wipe once you are on ICS stock kernel
After this find second link on my sign and use method 1A/1B to root.
No need to use pit, though detail instruction is there on my thread

Let me get this right:
1 go to CMWR and clear data and cash, then exit, reboot
2.go into download mode vol - + home+ power
3 connect odin and select the rom into pda
4 hit start and let it do its job, it will reboot into the new ics after that.
then my phone will probably have ICS running but no root and so i cannot use unlock apk, only if i IMEI unlock it so i can stay on stock all the way.
So after i flash stock ics using odin i shall never do a hard reset on my phone even if i do not root it?
thanx for patience and help
correct me if i am wrong at any steps.
thanx again

1. yes You are on GB ROM, so safe
2.OK
3.OK
4.Not probably but it will boot to ROM which you have flash.
If you have network lock, then you have to Root your device to unlock it.
For that use 2nd link on my signature to root it.
Again here one more thin i have to clear
If you select ICS 4.0.4 to flash, then direct network unlock won't work.
For this refer to 'Toolbox' in my signature and follow tool No 18 and then 17
In case of 4.0.3, Tool No 17 only will be fine.

Should i flash Hydracore v5 kernel with odin after my odin upgrade to stock ics just to be sure that no brick bug will happen to my note if i ever do a HW reset?
Yes safe kernel always safe.
Flashing kernel with Odin raise flash counter.
You can flash phillz kernel (which is also safe) from stock recovery. If you want to flash hydracore or any other later you can flash with phillz recovery without raising counter.

if you can get into recovery, do wipe dalvik->reboot and tell us what happens
if download - flash your country's whole rom with odin and start again

Still problem with booting
I have tried to flash many different firmwares. ODIN says green but the phone does not boot. Just the first logo or Samsung with some animation.. than it gets stuck there. ADB does not work then either.
I have tried to root and wipe data with different ODIN, but nothing helped. TWRP is not present on "download mode" either..
On ODIN3 v3.07 I see there there is a tickbox for "NAND ERASE ALL" but when I have it checked it fails or hands on erase state.
Could you please help me what I can do next?
I would like to have complete firmware and root and install TWRP etc. but I need to get booting up ok. I have already 15 on "custome binory download"

after flashing.. remove / replace your battery..
try booting in recovery by pressing vol up+home+power at the same time..
then scroll down to factory reset via vol keys..
wipe and restore factory settings..

[Q] Stuck on Samsung Logo no Download or Recovery mode

Hey,
i wanted to flash from an unsafe kernel(ZCLP5) to a safe one and got the recent CM10 kernel (Kernel_CM10.1_20130130_Nightly_CWM.zip),
i then went into recovery mode and flashed the zip from sdcard and yeh here i am.
After the samsung logo appears i get a black screen and the software buttons flash once, no way to go into recovery or download mode.
When checking out the logcat with adb and grepping for "error" and "fail" i can see that the device fails to call eglInitialize (EGL_BAD_ALLOC) that, i guess, is initializing the OpenGL ES graphics lib.
So i'm a developer myself but not into android, where do i go from here?
Best greetings and thanks for support in advance.
What Rom did you have before?
I guess CM kernel doesn't work with your Rom (if it's TW).
Did you press the three buttons long enough for getting into recovery or download mode?
Easiest way: If you really do not get into recovery you should download a Stock Rom and install it with PC Odin.

I guess for pc odin i need to be in download mode that is also not accessible :/

EDIT:
Oh man somehow i get into download mode now, i swear i tried several times.
So you recommend that i flash stock rom now?
Will heimdall also work instead of odin?

Then i pushed and installed clockwork recovery and after that flashed the current cyanogen mod.

then you need to put the phone in download mode and connect to PC.. open odin and it should show that the phone is connected by showing a Yellow Box with COM:X
once this is done, place the rom (tar.md5 file) in the PDA tab (if only 1 rom file) and appropriate places if 3 rom files.
the press start.. the phone will start downloading. let it finish and the phone will reboot.. once done.. boot into recovery and choose factory reset. (GB rom is safe to reset using stock recovery)

Go to the above thread and download the pit file from there. Then in odin select the pit file under pit tab. This will auto tick the repartition option. Then select the rom in pda again. Reboot the phone into download mode and try again.

What did you do? Repartition?
If that.. Then use a small rom.. Like slimbean or cm roms. You could also try slimwizz. Big roms may not work properly.

because they said so its only way to fix or if i did untick repartition will it still flash i wasnt sure there is no fix for that i dont like custom roms i think stock roms not bad about speed especailly 4.0.4 what if 4.1.2 come up ?
In this case, you could try with the J leaks which are small like slimwizz. Stock ICS roms are huge so may cause trouble. But you could try some stock based custom roms out there.
