HELP: Flashing PhilZ from Speedmod took me to stock kernel??? - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

OK here is the situation.
I have an unlocked and rooted 4.0.4 GT-N7000 that I plan to upgrade to 4.1.2 EUR area code, that just got released few hours ago to sammobile.
As is, my phone is reported as PDA:LRI, PHONE:LRB, CSC:LP8 (EUR).
I plan to update to 4.1.2 using N7000XXLT5_N7000OXXLT2_EUR.
I wanted to wipe data and cache first (I want to reinstall apps from the beggining after upgrade), so I wanted a verified "safe" kernel.
Remember I already was using a speedmod kernel and device is rooted already.
So I downloaded PhilZ-cwm6-XXLRI-AUT-3.99-signed.zip and put it to my SD to flash it using the stock recovery method.
Went in stock recovery mode, I installed zip file (it said it installed successfully) and then rebooted...
1) Now I cannot go to stock recovery mode!
2) "About" reports that I have a stock kernel!!!
Code:
3.0.15-N7000XXLRI-CL811902

So... how can this be? How can I flash PhilZ? (Is it there already? How do I start it's recovery menu?)
Note: Phone boots fine and I am still rooted (as I verified with Mobile Odin Pro).

OK even in philz it will show as a stock kernel
When you reboot you hold power-volumeup-home?
how did you flash philz? through stock recovery or PC Odin?
What section did you put it in in PC odin if thats what you used?
You may want to install Mobile Odin (from playstore) and ref lash Philz Using that
sorry I can't help anymore tonight going to bed, but ill take a look tomorrow
maybe someone else can chime in

I press power-vol-up-home yes. It boots to OS.
I flashed using stock recovery (because with speedmod pwer-vol-up-home worked fine).
I already have Mobile Odin Pro installed. How should I flash Philz again?
Any other ideas?
EDIT: I reflashed the zip using Mobile Odin Pro. Same result. It seems to install fine, but I cannot go to recovery mode.
EDIT #2: I AGAIN flashed with Mobile Odin Pro but using .tar.md5 file. It correctly recognized it is a kernel. It flashed it and rebooted to OS. I shut down the device and started it again... I press and hold vol-up + home + power (yes the buttons work fine, I tested)... AND YES!

Can I flash this from stock recovery
I know I know, noob. But I wanted to know if I can flash this kernel from stock jb recovery. Also does this kernel work with any stock jb rom?

Only have Download mode. Help! [SOLVED]

My SGS does not boot and does not enter recovery mode. I can enter download mode though. I suspect it happened after I removed some files from SD card.
Can I access SD card in download mode?
How can I use download mode to restore firmware and the recovery?
Thanks in advance.
u have to reflash your firmware. if u get only downloadmode working u can only reflash your device.
try a custom kernel first. if this wont work, then flash new firmware
Strange.from download mode you can only flash firmware.I think u can use adb and connect your phone to computer.try little search on topics don't rush first read carefully.

@malcho
adb wont work in download mode. only in cwm and after successful boot
So I understand I need to connect to PC in download mode and then use some software like ODIN to flash a ROM? Correct?
thats right.
may u can flash via kies, if u want a stock rom from samsung
I didn't know that info about adb.Thanks for info
[email protected]
Well, it's strange but looks better. Even before I did anything with ODIN the phone booted into the new ROM but I still cannot get into recovery. Seems like ROM installation procedure deleted something essential to run the recovery.
So now I have the download mode and Android working.
I am trying not to make any sudden moves so that I won't lose to ability to boot the ROM. What would be the best way to restore ClockworkMod recovery?
What ROM are you running now?
From a running stock-ROM the easiest way is to flash some custom kernel that includes CWM.
Here's a list http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=966646
For 2.2.1-based ROM I prefer Speedmod.
For 2.3.3-based, choose your own
edit: There are some ROMs/kernels that can only enter recovery when USB-debugging is on.

I've just switched from Darky's 9.2 to PilotX with 2.6.35.7-I9000X[email protected]#Beta4.2_1 kernel.
From what you are saying I understand CWM recovery needs Linux kernel to run. I thought it's a stand alone boot-loader independent from the OS and kernel.
I installed CF-Root-XW_NEE_JVH-v3.2-CWM3RFS which comes with CWM recovery via ODIN with no effect. I still cannot reach recovery mode.
My phone came with 3e recovery which I downgraded to 2e (I don't remember how I did it then). Is it possible it has something to do with the problem?
You should always flash to stock when you have an issue.
You can also use Darky's resurrection (at least, part A: Pit with re-partition)
Then flash the original firmware (from samfirmware.com)
Thanks to everyone.
The problem was solved using http://www.v00d00.co.il/GBFINAL.pdf guide. Note, this guide is only relevant for Hebrew PilotX ROM.

How to repair my phone

Originally, I am using a 4.0.3 stock rom.
Then I flashed a 4.2 ABYSS kernel and pressed wipe data after.
After that, I flashed check rom v6. However, it cant boot and stops at the GT-N7000.
So I use odin to flash a rom with pda, phone and csc. However, it still cant boot and stops at GT-N7000.
All my steps should be usual as I usually flash the rom of my phone.
What can I do to boot my phone?
Did you boot back into recovery after flashing AbyssNote kernel ?
Which ICS kernel were you using when you performed wipe data / factory reset ?
Now...
Flash stock gingerbread rom with pc odin and then factory reset.
DO NOT select PIT file or boot-loader etc. Flash normally.

It is superbricked.
Take your phone to samsung service centre. Motherboard needs to be replaced.
Act dumb, do not tell them about custom roms and kernels, root etc and make sure you do not have yellow triangle and flash counter.
BTW Which kernel were you using before you flashed AbyssNote kernel?

Did you reboot into recovery after flashing abyss kernel?
You need to reboot back into recovery after flashing abyss 4.2, so the abyss kernel takes effect.
Sounds like you didn't reboot into recovery, and wiped with an unsafe kernel.

You are superbricked. Search the forum for partial recovery since you cannot claim warranty, unless you send it back to France.

Are you sure it was stock kernel?
Stock kernels do not have clockwork recovery - so it is not possible to flash kernel from it.

If you can flash through odin without getting stuck at some point then may still be ok. Make sure to have kernel matching rom. Abyss go with gb rom.

Question about EXACTLY process to flash roms

First of all, HI guys and sorry for my irregular english.
I read since a long time XDA Forums to prepare me in flash and root methods for my galaxy note.
At now, i'm using this stock rom:
[ICS][4.0.3][Stock][OpenGermany]N7000XXLPY_N7000OXALPY_N7000XXLPT_HOME.tar.md5
+
CF-Root-SGN_XX_OXA_LPY-v5.6-CWM5.tar + SuperSU
but i came from a stock rom: N7000UBKK2 with default kernel KK1 from Samsung and Movistar. and i have only a nandroid backup of my default Samsung/Movistar rom.
I have another gingerbread samsung stock rom, for emergency cases:
N7000UBKK8_N7000WEKK1_N7000PETKK1_HOME.tar.md5
But my point is:
I wish test some roms, before to decide which one use in dual boot system:
- Stock 4.0.4 (LRG or you suggest me LRK or another more recent ?)
- AOKP
- Criskelo
- Chrack
- Paranoid
- Cyanogen 9
And i have ready to use: Odin 1.87, Odin Mobile, SuperSU (if is necesary), Abyss 4.2 (CW/Red) for recovery, Abyss 4.2 CW for odin and CF-Root for LRG (if is necesary i can find one for LRK or another recent)
But i'm confused about how exactly do that. Yes i know there are many... MANY topics about that but, I only need a bit of help guys to understand the exactly process and avoid EMMC BUG...
If i understant correctly, i must follow this method, please correct me if i'm grong:
01 - Check if i'm root and settings are in depuration + unkown sources
02 - Because i'm using an ICS Kernel i need first downgrade to Abyss for continue
03 - Reboot in Recovery and flash Abyss4.2 CW/Red, after "reboot recovery" and make wipes
Which one should i use for this CW or Red Version?
...
But after this i have problems, because i have ever red: before flash a custom rom you need a same base. Then ok i think for use for example CM9, or Paranoid, or Criskelo, I need a 4.0.4 rom then i have a:
[ICS][4.0.4][Stock][OpenGermany]N7000XXLRG_N7000DBTLRG_N7000XXLRB_HOME.tar.md5
Ready to flash but...
If a this moment following the previous steps, i'm in recovery of Abyss CW/Red:
Should i reboot using this Abyss kernel in download mode to flash a stock LRG ?
...
Or in another reality, is not needed flash Abyss to flash a stock rom using Odin ?
I wish first test the Stock 4.0.4 before any other custom to make a base point of comparison
...
And after, using 4.0.4 LRG + CF-Root, is safe use install from zip file in recovery to flash any other rom like CM9 for example ? or i need use abyss recovery (before flash it using CR-Root recovery) to flash any other rom (ICS) ?
Again i hope you can help me with these questions, and really sorry is the text is so long but i prefeer to know rightly how to procced before brick my phone, because i still waiting for a JIG (you know, for emergency...)
Tnks to all.
First of All You need to know that there is no need for the same base to flash the ROM.
Second thing You have to use Abyss Redpill 4.2 Original Logo Recovery(It uses GB Kernel) If you are not going to downgrade to GB and want to flash on top of your current ROM
Third Whenever you want to flash CM9/AOKP/AOSP first downgrade to GB(Pre rooted Rom) OR GB then Root it and then flash the rom by going it to CWM recovery.
Fourth thing is Never flash Abyss using PC Odin.
Proper Way to Flash CM9/AOSP/AOKP for a clean install (You will lose data)
Download a prerooted GB Rom from here ===> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424997
Reboot your phone is Download Mode. (Vol Down+Home+Power)
Open Pc Odin on your Pc/Laptop
Connect your phone to PC via USB Cable
A Small Box in Left Upper turns Yellow.It means your phone is recognized by Odin
Now Select GB File under PDA Tab (Do not change any settings)
Start Flash
YOU WILL HAVE A GB ROM ON YOUR PHONE WITH ROOT
Now Go to Recovery
Install Zip from SD Card
Flash Rom
Flash Gapps
Do All 3 Wipes (Cache/Dalvik/Data)
Reboot System.
you might wanna root first and backup efs before jumping to any rom that is different csc then you previous one.

Tnks to all, at now i'm testing some roms and kernels, looking for a "perfect" mate for my paranoid android (tableted rom), and in my tests i still looking for a decent kernel because (may this is my imagination but...) CF-Root LRG kernel in LRK Rom (Chrack's Rom) consume excessively batery but i will test in an ordinary day because may is not problem from rom, this should be a problem from kernel...
I read before: SpeedMod kernel was developed just for this situation: low batery comsumption + high perfomance...

I use recovery cwm 6.0.1.2 and did a backup
I then use it to install "kernel_V10_4_2_15.zip" it FAILED so I then used recovery to install "cm-10-20121118-NIGHTLY-captivatemtd.zip" it FAILED

Have you tried getting in DL mode and flashing stock KK4?
I think that's your easiest/fastest solution.
From there, flash corn kernel to get root and flash the ROM you want as per their instructions.

You're simply not rooted. go in recovery and make sure root is enabled (assuming you flashed corn kernel that is).

Thanks for your response...I finally figured it all out!!!!!!!!!! My CWM was stock which is 3e recovery and requires signature verification....I had NOT use the corn kernel but flash some zip file that roots...don't remember the name. I then realized that it probably did NOT install CWM a newer version so I put the corn kernel on that would put on CWM that would work...Once I had the proper recovery on I was able to put my 4.0.4 back on and CMod9. Then nothing worked properly everything not working like Gmail Media something so I put on gapps the latest that didn't help. I put my TB on that didn't work well 5 failed....google mail would still not work and the something media kept giving a bad message...
I went into recovery and put on a recovery back up I had done 2 days ago and ALL is now WORKING great...
I still want to update to 4.1.1 Jelly Bean but the files I have don't work so I need to look around for a different ROM and ideas would help.
Thanks again for your time...

[Q] stuck at samsung load screen after flashing PhilZ-cwm6

Hi,
I've just upgraded my Galaxy Note N7000 to stock JB ROM via Kies. The current version now is: N7000DDLSC. After upgrading, I wanted to move to Phil's Kernel, so I downloaded Phil's safe Kernel " DDLSC-ODD" .
However, after flashing Phil's kernel via recovery, my phone is stuck at Samsung's logo. I booted into recovery and can see touch GUI,so Phil's kernal is installed butwhen the phone is turned on it is stuck at samsung logo and I cannot proceed ahead. Once or twice the phone booted but was stuck at lock screen and then restarted again and got stuck at samsung logo again.
Can you please help me out???
did u follow the instructions ?

Yes, I followed the method correctly. I downloaded the official JB rom yesterday and flashed it using PC Odin. For the time being I am back on official JB ROM and kernel, but want to know if it is safe to flash Phil's kernel or any other JB Kernel ?
Try flashing it again...follow instructions step by step... You shouldn't have that issue.... If it continues you can try a factory reset from Philz recovery
Of it still happens post back here for more helo

Not every safe kernal is compatible try to flash philz kernal wif the correct one then using ur external sdcard is better n safe on a phone rather then using pc odin. after u successfully flashed the right kernal n ur phone can start up normally then u can try other kernal as well.
once u flash to a different safe kernal try to make use of the safe kernal function to reboot recovery or reboot system now n update kernal need few mins to update if still stuck on N7000 logo then just go back to recovery n flash back the working kernal.
so far i don't see flashing different kernal is smooth so no point. as philz already mention that the kernal is base on rom built.
