[Q] The best way for a migration to CyanogenMod from stock ICS 4.0.4

>>>> WARNING <<<< Noob inside ​
Hello everybody
Please forgive me if my english is not good
This is my first post in the XDA forum, and after more than day to read a lots of interresting posts, i'm completly lost...
I have a GN with the last stock rom from Samsung (4.0.4 XXLRG - Open Germany) and it's rooted.
When i look into the XDA CyanogenMod thread, I read that:
- I STRONGLY RECOMMEND TO FLASH FROM A CF-ROOTED STOCK GINGERBREAD ROM, JUST TO AVOID YOU HARD BRICKS.
And in the CynogenMod Wiki, this:
- This guide assumes the device is already running stock Ice Cream Sandwich available from Samsung. If the Samsung Galaxy Note already has the ClockworkMod Recovery installed, skip this section.
I'm confused....
What's the best way to install CM9 on my note ?
> going back to a "safe" GB rom ?
> keeping my Stock rooted ICS rom and start the install of CM9 ?
Thank you in advance for your replys.

Download Stock GB Rom from Dr. Ketan's page
Flash that using PC Odin
After flash do wipe from recovery
Root + CWM from chainfire's thread(use search feature )
After CWM, put CM9 zip in SD card and flash(instructions available if you search :highfive
Don't flash from stock ICS because of emmc brickbug :sillyagain search will help here )

Rooting my device

Hi guys, i am new to all this!
I really want to root my phone but i dont understand any of the step by step guides i have found.
Can anyone simplify things for me and tell wat i have to download to be able to do it?
Easiest is to root a JW4 ROM. Flash it to your phone using Odin and flash the CF-Root 4.4.
Search for the files above.

Alternatively, bit more hassle, but,
There's a very handy app called Framaroot in the Apps and Games section which should *theoretically* root any 2.3.6 for our phone. I don't know whether BUJVG would be supporte, although I don't see why not.
Use that to root, then download Semaphore GB and SGS kernel flasher, both in these forums. Install SGS kerne flasher, flash Semaphore GB (or any other GB kernel that could perhaps support your firmware, last time I checked kernels were firmware specific. So you may have to do a bit of digging around to see if there's a kernel that supports all.)
If not, try find a CWM flasher (and don't use ROM manager on Play Store, that's not very helpful...) of some kind.
Bit more hassle, and considering your phone's firmware seems to be localised and not a more generic firmware it may not work, but hey, worth a shot.
If that doesn't work, follow the guide compacity posted.

Go here and flash the GIngerbread Semaphore kernel, you will get root and CWM or use framaroot app, if you only want root.

you don't have to root first, you can flash the JVU ROM and CF Root, to get Root and CWM at one go.

the downloads are listed for you on that link, you need to read and comprehend it, if you are flashing the JVU ROM, the kernel is already attached with it, if you want to flash the kernel only already mentioned earlier download gingerbread semaphore kernel latest version will do.

CM 10 is Jelly Bean, so you need to read the guide about it ,you can learn more by reading the guide fully. But to answer your question, you need CWM ( clockworkMod) and for that you need to flash a semaphore gingerbread kernel ,. Had written about it , where you found the link for the framaroot app. only rooting you use the app, if you want root and CWM, you flash the semaphore GB kernel
after that you flash CM 9 (ICS first) just boot it once than flash CM 10 ( Jelly Bean) Clearly explained on that guide.
