Hello all
I know I might sound paranoid but I want to confirm something.
I wiped cache/date when I was on custom rom before flashing Philz safe kernel (actually wiped to flash that kernel).
I updated from SGS and there before flashing anything its recommended to wipe cache/dalvik but after reading few topics here I came to know that that's not the way to go with N7000 and now I am worried as I read on a few topics that users have got their cell or usb bricked few months after doing what I did (wipe cache on stock rom).
Now I would like to know is their anything I can do to prevent same happening with me or I should just wait and pray that that doesn't happen to me.
I am currently on stock JB rooted with Philz kernel.
Thanks in advance for advice

Always do wipes in Philz kernel or Any others custom safe kernels. Never do any kind of wipes/factory reset, formats or even format usb storage in stock kernel .
Firstly, always read the thread carefully before you flash, especially the instructions pertaining to the required recovery to flash and ROM support(for kernels and MODs). And also factory reset, wipe cache and other things as the respective ROM threads guide you. And flashing is very safe once you follow the instructions.

Since I had done it already, what are the chances that I might face issues? Can it brick after a few days/months even if I don't do anything?
Or as its running fine now, I can breath easy unless I do something stupid again.. lol.. Which I am sure I won't.

Don't worry mate, if the phone is working alright now, it won't be bricked. And if you follow the instructions well, it's difficult to hard brick your phone! There won't be any issues, stick to the instructions to the letter though!

I'm being a right pain in the bum now ain't I!
Been searching the forum and it seems I have to go back to GB to install another rom?
I thought it was the stock kernel that it was unsafe to flash from, so I installed Franco kernel thinking it would be okay then...but apparently not?
So is there a rom out there that I can flash nice and safely with ics on Franco?
my suggestion is: until you feel perfectly safe, don't take shortcuts (unless explicitly suggested by ROM/kernel developer),
I mean, flashing full GB to flash another ROM, may seem a waste of time, as there are faster methods (e.g.via abyss), but why take the risk?
to answer your question, afair franco kernel should have the fatal command disabled, but check in his thread to be absolutely sure

Quite a few custom Roms require you to install from gb, not because of the kernel issues, but for other reasons which I'm not too clear on. For instance if you flash paranoid over Ics rom with safe kernel, chances are you'll brick. Always follow the rom threads directions, never try shortcuts and 99% of the time you won't have any issues at all.

Alright, but don't you have to flash GB using PC Odin, or can I use mobile Odin? Or can I use cwm?
It's recommended to use PC odin although I think it's okay from mobile odin also. I wouldn't use cwm as that utilises the existing kernel.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
Alright I will look into using PC Odin.... This should be fun lol
You do not really have to flash the full rom. Just flash via mobile odin the abyssnote 39 or 42, reboot to that kernel and flash your custom rom via cwm.
I have flashed stock gb and/or ics back and forth from within mobile odin without issues.

Where did you get the GB rom from? Was it from the stock rom thread on here? And where did you get the kernel, I think I may have seen it on download Android rom .com...
I have my ics backed up on my sd card, so if I want to go back to ics can I just use the backup instead of finding the ics rom?

Never used PC odin for flashing any roms, only used Abyss kernel 4.2 flash into recovery of abyss and flash any rom and enjoy i have been jumping from rom to rom through abyss kernel No issues till date all well and good, never flashed anything from any ICS kernels or even CM9 kernels, only abyss kernel to be ultra safe.

Why not make a backup in recovery when on stock GB?This way you can restore easily no odin what so ever needed!
It is safe to restore even on ICS (or at least stock ics) right?
Can restore cause brick?(this has always been a puzzle to me)

I had Cyanogenmod on my note, then i flashed stock ics using pc odin. my flash counter is zero and binary is samsung official.
my problem is that when i unlock my phone i cant do anything for 10sec and its pretty laggy. i think that i wiped it using official ics.
and i think it has something to do with the emmc bug.
My question is does this goes under warranty ? or are there any solution for my problem ?

Before you take your phone to Samsung, I recommend to reflash your rom and perform a full wipe, clear cache and dalvik cache. But ensure yourself that you are doing it on a safe kernel. Goku, notecore, speedmod, abyss...

I just purchased a international Note off EBay. It has GB installed. I am not sure what country this is from but the phone's baseband version is N7000UBKK1 and the kernel version is 2.6.35.7-N7000UBKK2-CL705203. I would like to move to ICS. I need US English as the language. So:
(a) What firmware should I use? I want to use Odin to install.
(b) Is there any possibility of bricking my phone due to the eMMC issue? I have run the eMMC Check app from the Play Store and it says the chip is "insane". But the test of the memory completes without errors. I am not really sure I know what this all means but I want to avoid problems (who doesn't).
(c) I understand the brick problem is with ICS and not GB. Does this continue to be a problem with the various JB roms out there?
Thanks for your time and help.
Flash stock open German XXLRQ then, look for it in dr.ketan's thread for stock roms in note original android dev sticy.
There are no official jb roms for note yet and cm10 or aokp based custom jb roms are totally safe for wipes and all.
Sent from my GT-N7000
For people who just Dont know what version they need to install u can check this from settings -about,or simply just install kies and it will detect ur version,then u can let kies install it for u or u can download it from dr.ketan post then root it then flash any safe kernel as speedmod ir hydracore,one last thing just remember not 2 make any wipes while using stock ICS thats all.

Hello and thanks to you and the others who have so kindly replied. Does this mean I should find a non-stock ICS ROM to install? I was thinking that going stock would be safer. I was reading this guide <android.gs/update-samsung-galaxy-note-to-official-xxlrq-firmware-update> to updating to the ROM suggested above and near the end it speaks to possibly having to select ‘wipe data/ factory reset’ in recovery mode if, after the Odin install completes, the device fails to boot beyond the logo screen. I would not want to get to that point and not be able to do this if needed.
Also, I would eventually really like to get to JB - especially for the on-device voice command processing. If there is a recommended JB ROM that can do this now and avoid the brick problem, I would appreciate recommendations.
Thanks again for your knowledge and help.

ofc you can use ICS Stock Rom. But just to be safe you have to flash safe kernel...Speedmod/Notecore/HydraCore are the safer kernels.
For JB there is no official update available from Samsung for our Note. But you can enjoy it with the efforts that developers are doing for us in XDA.
Go to Android Development Section and Have a look on the Topic Titles.Some of them are AOKP/PA/CM10/AOSP... For Me JellyCore is so far gud. You can find the link in my signatures.
I only know u r now in GB.
GB shld be ok to do full wipe. None reporting mmc brick on GB coz of full wipe.
So....
U can do ur full wipe first on stock GB.
Use pc odin to flash ICS 4.04 LRQ.
Voila.... U r on ICS alrd.
Once u r on ics, and on stock ics kernel....
Pls, do not ever do full wipe.
Unless, after that u root and install ics safe custom kernel, then u r safe to full wipe on ics.
Good luck!

Hello and thanks. I guess it may make sense to bypass the stock ICS which seems to contain issues related to the brick bug and go to something like Jelly Core as you mention. I looked at the page for Jelly Core and see that it says to install using Clock Work Mod and to wipe from a safe kernel first. As a newbie I guess I have some questions:
(a) I am on GB which I understand to be "safe". Is that correct?
(b) Where do I get the CWM for this phone and how do I install it?
(c) To do the "wipe" does that simply mean to use the built-in reset to factory or does this mean something else?
Thanks
Hi there,
a. Yes, Stock GB's are generally safe
b. When your going to flash ROM, each ROM has it's own accompanying CWM.. so when your done choosing which ROM your going to flash your Note to, when your going to bootup in recovery.. and you get the standard CWMR...
c. Yes, Wiping is synonymous to doing the built-in factory reset on your phone (thru Settings), or the alternate way is to go to CWMR and wipe data. Different Methods, same result.
Thanks but...

I am sorry but I am still a bit lost here. Before my N7000 I had a Samsung Skyrocket and flashed it using Odin from the GB that was on it to the stock ICS. I found several guides for this online and it worked fine and easily (although I still feared the brickbug). But this is basically all I know about this stuff.
So how do I flash something like Jelly Core? It sounds like I have to install some other was other than I did with Odin/stock ICS on my Skyrocket. Perhaps I need more of a tutorial on how to do this flashing of custom roms. Any suggestions?
I apologize to all for my thick-headedness.
the best and safest way first is to downgrade back to stock GB. Don't do any thing foolish by just flashing a stock ICS (with an unsafe kernel).
Downgrade first to stock GB and work your way up to eventually flash your preferred custom ROM (in cwmr or odin)
hey guys, I was thinking to root my note n7000 running android 4.0.4
I read many threads and guides but could not understand the way to do it...
some says "this way is better and safe" and some says "that one is risky, try another"
Actually I want to root because of two reasons
1. Want to install a beautiful (good looking) ROM like MIUI (cause installing themes makes my note slow, toooo slow and then it crashes too)
2. I want some apps that require root (like an app to remove permissions that apps ask but they don't actually need)
So I wanna ask you guys, is it worth rooting?
Is it possible to install MIUI in note OR is there any other better alternative to MIUI
I don't really care about the warranty as long as I can understand the way to root my phone safely so I won't brick it (though I even read in some threads that you can root without going against the warranty conditions)
I also saw the one-click root setup that needs a PC, download the rar, connect phone, USB-debugging and start the file in PC, is it safe and not outdated or patched by the android 4.0.4
So guys, suggest me should I root or just wait for JB update for the note
and if you suggest that I should root then can you please :angel: point me in a direction, to a good and easy to follow guide for newbies...
:highfive:
i rooted the note as soon as i got it..
its very simple to root a 4.0.4 these days and safe as well..

thanks man for the reply,
I understand the later part that transfering the zip files to external SD and install from it
but I fail to unerstand which zip file to download
my "build number" is "IMM76D.DDLR9"
and "baseband version" is "N7000DDLRR1"
also I wanted to ask if this the same CWM.zip method as mentioned in this THREAD cause they are saying that following this method will result in a brick
one last thing, if you could also make my doubts clear
rooting is needed to access to system files so that we can install and use apps which require ROOT
but I do not know about kernel and CWM...
once again many many thanks for the reply...:victory::angel:
Use ddlr9
cwm.zip can result in a brick
yes root is needed to access system

kernel is a universal name. You can look it up anywhere
cwm is an advanced recovery that can perform many tasks as compared to stock recovery and is embedded in the kernel for note. when you change kernel your recovery will change as per what the dev included.
cwm is aso required to install custom roms

yeah that's what I thought
I would rather give it to some other person who knows the process of rooting than doing it myself, looks very confusing to me :silly:
okay done!
so I have finally rooted and flashed my kernel...
I followed this guide on youtube
youtube[dot]com/watch?v=fIV84TwdPdY
basically, it told me to download "Root_SuperSU.0.95.Only-signed.zip" and update from the zip and I followed
then I got the supersu app in my note and my note was rooted then following the guide again, I installed "mobile odin pro" from the play store, downloaded "speedmod-kernel-n7000-ics-k3-15-CWM.zip" and using mobile odin i flashed it
so now my phone's "about" page is like this
View attachment 1653682
so I just wanted to ask whether this kernel is safe or not, do I have to still flash something else cause I read that most of the ICS kernels are affected with the "brick" bug and I was on android 4.0.4 when I rooted and flashed my phone..,
and what about flashing roms...,
It's only stock ics roms that are unsafe. Speedmod is safe, also worth checking out is phillz kernel which is as close to stock as you can get but with the mmc_cap_erase command disabled.
Since you're on a safe kernel now you can flash most roms straight away, although if flashing cm based rom like paranoid or cm10 you usually need to flash a cm based kernel first, then boot into recovery and flash the cm rom from there. All first posts will contain necessary flashing procedures. You'll get the hang of it and if you need help continue asking.

further query
first, thank you SpyderTracks for your quick response, I actually slept last night cause I didn't think that I would get an answer so fast :angel:
now, what rom you people suggest me to install as I am AGAIN confused to choose the rom
and as SpyderTracks said to install CM roms i need CM kernel too, so I suppose there will be again many more choices, so would anyone tell me which one is the easiest and simplest...
I actually looked at many roms
like MIUI, CyanogenMod, some jellybean roms like JellyBam
so from where should I start to understand this rooting things
P.S I have got mobile odin pro and rom manager from store, if they can help
EDIT
please help me out, I did something wrong
i downloaded and installed mobile odin pro
flashed latest CWM
and then I downloaded "RocketMIUI v8 - MIUI 2.10.19 - SNote running!!! - multilang" and wenti into recovery vol. up+power+home
first of all I used "wipe data/factory reset" option and then "wipe cache partition" and then finally I used "install zip from sdcard"
update was succesfully done but now when I start my note, it gets to samsung logo normally then the welcome page of samsung shows up and there i'm getting an error "unfortunately, phone has stopped" and now I cannot do anyting

first, thank you SpyderTracks for your quick response, I actually slept last night cause I didn't think that I would get an answer so fast :angel:
now, what rom you people suggest me to install as I am AGAIN confused to choose the rom
and as SpyderTracks said to install CM roms i need CM kernel too, so I suppose there will be again many more choices, so would anyone tell me which one is the easiest and simplest...
I actually looked at many roms
like MIUI, CyanogenMod, some jellybean roms like JellyBam
so from where should I start to understand this rooting things
P.S I have got mobile odin pro and rom manager from store, if they can help
EDIT
please help me out, I did something wrong
i downloaded and installed mobile odin pro
flashed latest CWM
and then I downloaded "RocketMIUI v8 - MIUI 2.10.19 - SNote running!!! - multilang" and wenti into recovery vol. up+power+home
first of all I used "wipe data/factory reset" option and then "wipe cache partition" and then finally I used "install zip from sdcard"
update was succesfully done but now when I start my note, it gets to samsung logo normally then the welcome page of samsung shows up and there i'm getting an error "unfortunately, phone has stopped" and now I cannot do anyting
PLEASE help O

Go into recovery, wipe cache, dalvik and data and try a reboot, should clear the fc's.

oh thank you one more time spydertracks
i did what you said but nothing's helping
then I came across shiro_hydracore v7 kernel, i flashed it but then again tried what you said but still no help
so is there anything I can do or my note is nothing but a paper weight now
UPDATE -
i wanna thank you everyone (from the heart) who bothered to reply in my thread
i'm done, installed jellybam, running smoothly
but even then, any new suggestions for future :angel:

It's just a flashing error or kernel issue, don't worry just yet. Reflash the rom, it comes provided with hydracore kernel. Leave it with that kernel, remember to do 3 wipes after flash, then try reboot.
