[Q] Return to Official Firmware - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I rooted and installed CWM and Cyanogen 10.1.3 on by brothers Note, GT-N7000. He didnt enjoy it as some unexpected errors were coming up sometimes. Luckily i found the official Rom 4.1.2 N7000DDLSC_INU.zip through sammobile. Now My questions are:-
1. What must i do to completely remove cyanogenmod and clock work recovery.
2. Do i need some additional files like, kernel or bootloader or phone or csc (or will just all this zip to pda will install it)
3. What else should i take care of?
Please advice i want to completely return to official state

nothing much.. just the rom file you downloaded in tar.md5 format. Boot into recovery and factory reset the phone. then boot into download mode and flash the new rom..

But will that remove clock work mod.?
And will my device get recognised in kies?

Gets shut down at logo. This I tried it 2.

Kindly elaborate... Did you factory reset prior to using Odin?

Ok.
I went into cwm.
1 I factory reset. Wiped the data
2 wiped catche
3 wiped dalvic catche
4 went into download mode
5 with Odin 1.85 recognised device installed official rom.
The progress was shown in both phone and Odin. Factoryfs, kernel, hidden and catche shown to be successfully copied.
Only the auto reboot was selected
After device restated it shouted the Samsung logo. Without triangle
I thought it was a success.
Then I saw green Android logo with install process which seemed to have successfully completed on the phone.
but then just as the Samsung and a ring revolving screen came up, insured of booting up the device got shut down.
I thought it will reboot ok but it didn't. I tried restating several times but it kept getting shutdown.
I then flashed the official firmware again but this time after Odin transferred all the files on the phone, the green android logo is not able to complete the installation in the middle of it the phone is restating showing the battery charging logo, then the green bot trying to install then again it restarts.
To sum up
I note

Sorry I posted by mistake
To sum up I I now am stuck in a loop where connecting the cable starts showing the battery charge logo, starts the device shows android logo with progress in the belly and a progress bar at the bottom restarts again allowing the battery logo again the Android thing and so on in a loop.
Please advice

Not sure if you have any other strong reason to go back to pure stock. Otherwise the easiest way is to install a stock base custom rom using PhilZ kernel and rom.zip. Sweet rom 10.5 is very good. Fast and stable.
Install purestock rom via odin is a pain and can cause lots of problems due to poor cable connection.

Did you have enough battery before flashing? Power off the phone.. Then connect it to ac charger for couple of hours and then remove the charger and start the phone.

I do believe I had more than 80%on the 1st attempt but I can't say that about this morning.
Any ways I did put it on charge today. Nearly two hours. Since it was looping on the battery and installation thing I put it on download mode. But now after removing from download mode is not even starting on download mode. I feel is further damaged. Any other software to interact with the phone or any other options I might have left

If it is not the batery then software does not help. There is a tool name usb jig which can help put phone to DL mode.

Thanks people for all the support. I think I will take it to the Samsung people as it is getting a little scary for my brother to trust me with this

flash again and wait.
I had to wait more than 15mins for the first boot ....then it came out and booted into the tablet.
I'll try it and now, but I waited over 20 minutes and nothing.
I think you should redownload and try the tar again. I'm sprint and have dne mine several times no issues.

Maybe if you listed what you were trying to flash we could be of more help.. You could have a bad kernel flash, or just need to reboot back into recovery and do a data and cache wipe.. Theres a number of things..
Sent from my SPH-P100 using XDA App
You need to post -
1. What rom.
2. GSM or CDMA.
3. Steps done.
It also helps if you have a copy of your stock rom in case a restock is needed...
It P1000 is a GSM GT. I do not know what the firmware was in it at first but I did update via Kies 2.3.3 Then the stock is in tablet Backup blocked. Then I tried with almost all European firmware with samfirmware site and no I did not succeed. Odin sends me the message that the system is successfully upgraded, but at startup I get a message that is not mount E disk and then stuck in samsung blinked screen.
I do not have copy of my stock rom unfortunately.
That's about all I know about the problem.

[Q] Galaxy Note totally Dead

Hi friends
I asking for help because yesterday i flash AOKP JB-4 in to my galaxy note N7000 but something went wrong in the middle of the rom install the screen put black and since then the phone is not working.
I'm going to explain all the process i made to flash the new rom
1. I install Clockwork Recovery in the galaxy note
2. I did a nandroid
3. I flash the rom with rom manager v5.0.2.1
4. The phone enter recovery wipe delvik and cache and started to install the rom
5. In the middle of the process the phone went black. is not the battery because it was 80% full
I have tried to enter recovery mode, download mode, use odin (but the PC dosent recognized the phone) i have also use [Linux] ModeDetect USBID Detector but this method is not compatible with the n7000
The phone was already rooted but the person who rooted didn't used odin so i don't now if that has something to do with the problem i have.
So is there anyone that can help me to safe the phone or is totally brick
Probably bricked since you didnt follow the warnings and instructions. There are methods in here somewhere were you might be able to partially revive the phone but loose some storage I believe.

You can try using PC odin in download mode to try installing a stock rom. If post update the phone is stuck in boot it probably means your phone is bricked.
Take it to samsung and if you are under warranty they will replace the mother board.
Happened to me. One of those unlucky ones who did factory wipe before the news spread out
Well he said I can't turn it so no download or battery charging mode just nothing. Black screen dead. Like I said when I flash a Rom that what happen to me and nothing no jig nothing made it possible to even turn on make the screen light up other then a motherboard exchange.

[Q] Galaxy Tab P1000 no reboot

Hi
I need help, if some one could help me was very good.
I upgrade my Galaxy Tab P1000 to Android 4.1.1 via Jelly Bean Sapir ROM (CM10-based) follow the procedure in this link
How to upgrade the Galaxy Tab P1000 to Android 4.1.1 Jelly Bean
Everything went perfectly until the end.
After the reboot re-enter recovery mode, I was doing a little research and found someone who says the tab came in recovery again to install the google app.
Okay I installed the gapps. He returned to boot into recovery, after tried it out of recovery mode but could not.
I opted to try again and get back behind the previously created backup. From then on the tab starts the past 2/2 blocks and only appears on screen Galaxy tab and bottom samsung.
Someone can help me?
Friends I am not well understood in this matter if I have said or done something stupid peoblemas not have to tell me learn and not just because I repeat.
From already thank you
When you first install CM10, you need to flash it multiple times, could be up to 4 times.
The first few just upgrades your cwm/kernel and converts to mtd, etc.
The last one will take the longest, you will see messages about flashing system etc etc.
Only then you flash gapps after the last long flash.

Do you now how can I recover my tablet?
League is not as if there was software.
is dead.
Can you go to download mode?
If so follow overcome links in my signature.

No, the battery died and I went by charging past few hours I went to see if it was loaded and the stack that appears on the screen remained blank but the tablet was light on the buttons ...
No power, no turn off, the tablet is frozen on the screen with the battery.
But even when he entered the recovery mode would not let me access the memory card ...
If you are talking about stock recovery (3e) then don't even bother to look into that.
For now just concentrate on charging the device and boot to download mode.

Strange thing is that I could get into download mode but after finishing the battery has not let me in ...
I cant do power on

[Q] What to do when I soft brick.

I was installing the DA Statusbar mod. Before I did that I back up my phone using CWM and Titanium Backup.
installed with no problems, I then rebooted. Home screen froze for a second and then showed me that my system.ui crashed. It kept doing that for a good 5 minutes. I decided to go back into CWM and restore my last saved state. I recieved an error installing the back ups (I have made 5 so far).
Now I don't really know what to do. I know I have to basically start from the beginning via flashing stock rom on odin. But how would I go about doing that? I can't seem to find the thread that explains this. =/
Thanks in advanced
SOLUTION HERE
You need to be much more specific. What's your recovery version? How did you backup/restore? Have you done this before? What's the error?
Use the unified tool kit to flash the stock rom.
I strangely cannot find a thread for the 9305 for stock roms =\
The stock firmware can be found on sammobile

To shorten the question and answers... If you could still boot to Download mode.
Flash your stock original firmware trhu Odin on your pc or download an exact model for your phone in SamMobile. From there you start a new... Root then re flash the cwm and so on...
If I understand this right you can boot to cwm and you can boot into the phone but the systemui fcs.
You can do a couple things here without having to reflash anything through odin. If you have your original systemui on the phone somewhere you can try and navigate to it with a root explorer then copy it into your system/app reboot and it should be as before, this can be tricky with constant fc's.
If you have a zip which has a systemui in it you can flash that in cwm and should fix the problem.
If you have a custom rom on your phone you can boot into cwm and flash it.
The fact that you have access to cwm and the phone boots but the systemui constantly fc's making the phone unusable means you have more options and quicker ways to get your phone working then going back to scratch and flashing a rom through odin

Solution.
Basically I got stuck at the samsung boot logo for ages.
I am running CWM v5.5.0.4. I have done this before, sorry I wasn't specific, I was trying to multitask. I've attached a screenshot of my phone info for everyone to see.
1. I wiped data/factory reset.
2. Wiped cache partition.
3. Wiped Dalvik Cache
4. Battery Stats
Rebooted, still no luck.
I went into Download mode.
Opened Odin.
Downloaded " Param_Bin_I9305.zip - 612.14 KB" located in this post
Followed the instructions in that post.
rebooted.
Thought it didn't work but my capacitive buttons lit up. SUCCESS!
Saw my homescreen, I thought I would have needed to root again but I managed to get into CWM after rebooting.
I downloaded root checker....I saw that I still had root access.
Installed Pandoriam v6.
Now I am back to normal.
My CWM backup didn't save me, I don't really know why. Maybe I was using it wrong? The thing is It's worked with me in the past, but not on this device.
Is there anyone that could shed light on that issue? I'll try and back it up again. Do I need to repeat the backup more than a few times to register it to the device?
Not sure if this is the right place or not but seems to be a similar situation.
I have a month old S3 LTE that came with 4.1.2 . It has not been rooted or had anything done to it at all.
I found a thread that shows you how to unlock it but was not getting the final option . This I understood was because some of these phones needed to be downgraded .
I saw a procedure using odin and looked for a similar rom on Sammobile but could not see any for Orange UK so picked a random 4.1.1 Rom and flashed it.
This left me with a glowing Samsung boot screen so I tried another ROM and another ROM and finally when giving up choose a current 4.1.2 Rom for EE but that too is stuck at the same place.
Can you help me work out where I am or have been going wrong please?
The Phone is from Orange UK ( EE ) but there was no branding on it .
i also neglected to note the Rom that was on it
if you read the guides you will find out that you need to factory reset after flashing
Unfortunately as the phone is sitting at a glowing Samsung logo, I cannot factory reset. In fact I cannot do anything except keep throwing Roms at it, unless you have any other suggestions?

Desperate call for help!

I recently rooted my Galaxy Exhibit 4G and installed the unofficial CM10 ROM. After a while I realized how slow everything was working, so I decided to turn back. However, when I tried to recover my previous backup (rooted stock) it gave me the stupid md5 error. followed directions on how to fix it, but then I had problems recovering the system and data. I then turned to Odin, but it didn't help, and my phone now tries to start up, reaches the Galaxy Exhibit 4G logo, and then fails to load, and tries over again. I can still access odin mode, but recovery won't boot and just reboots the whole system.
Can anybody please help me? What can I do? I tried to follow directions on the forums, and on the wiki, but everything just got worse. I have nowhere else to turn
Why not install a flavor of Gingerbread like Peach Sunrise or...gosh, I forget our GB days!
Honestly, look at Slimbean and an OC kernel. They've given me personally the best performance I've seen on this phone, but even they will slow down after a while. I do a fresh install every few months when the lag gets atrocious, keeps the phone spic and span.
There's only so much you can do on 300 Mb of ram- even on Gingerbread.
Sounds like you will have to flash a recovery using Odin. Once in recovery then you can flash a rom. The reason your phone won't boot up is probably because it has nothing to boot into. Try cm7. I have been running it while waiting for my Lumia 521 to get here and it is amazingly fast. Fastest my phone has ever been.

If you are using stock recovery then when you see the recovery screen hit the menu key. It should make the screen dim a bit. You should reboot into recovery then where you can flash cwm.
