[Q] Rooting and Flashing GT-N7000 - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey, I just joined this forum. I have been an active reader since a very long time.
I have been trying to root and flash a 4.4.2 ROM on my Galaxy Note.
I can't install the latest PhilZ recovery. It shows a status 7 error.
I tried many guides with no luck.
Every time I root my phone, it gets stuck in a boot-loop and will only reboot into recovery.
I have the Samsung official 4.1.2 ROM running. It is fully updated. The kernel is DDLSC.
Can someone guide me through upgrading my Note to any 4.4.2 ROM. I'm really annoyed with the battery drain issue with 4.1.2 Official ROM.

Try search for this using google:
XDA N7000 STATUS 7 ERROR
Running sweetrom 10.5, no drain whatsoever m8.

Flashing n7000 with Kitkat
Hi there,
I am also stuck with flashing KitKat on the N7000.
I have never done this before, but i read a lot .
I used Odin 3.9 to install PhilZ-cwm6-XXLT4-OXA-4.93.6.tar.md5.
This was the first CWM-tar that worked.
I copied omni-4.4.2-20140414-n7000-NIGHTLY and pa_gapps-modular-mini-4.4.2-20140412-signed.zip and (for a second try) also cm-11-20140415-NIGHTLY-n7000.zip on a 4GB SDCARD (64GB would not work at some Point)
Installation began but stopped with Status 7 and an Error somewhat like --> "contents_file_missing"
I found out that I probbaly would have to use the newest version of CWM for KITKAT. That would be 6.0.4.3 i think.
I could not use the Zip I found on the CWM Page because Odin only accepts tars.
After a lot of searching I found philz_touch_6.25.0-n7000.tar.md5.
Unfortounatly Odin stopped after "Nand Write Start" with a fail error.
I also managed to install cyngogenmod 10.1.3 and "rom manager" and also goomanager.
RomManager said i would have updated CWM bur when booting in CWM it was not updated ( still 6.0.3.1 i think) even so RomManager kept teeling me that it was the Version 6.0.4.3. Goomanager could not find a twrp Verions for the n7000.
I still can flash other older roms and i can still replace the cwm that comes with them with the one I stated above, but cannot manage to uodate CWM to the newest Version.
So how am i supposed to update CWm please help me.
Greetings Andreas

[Resolved] Rom manager has downgraded my CWM recovery !

Hi there,
I used http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1901191 to root and install CWM recovery on my Note XXLRK.
After reboot, I had CWM 6.0.1.4.
Then I installed app I had in my old phone : rom manager. It told me to flash recovery to be able to use it, so I did it.
It flashed to version 6.0.1.2 !
I tried to flash again with root method below but recovery still to 6.0.1.2 now.
I've heard about brick risk when flashing a rom with this version.
How can I upgrade recovery back to 6.0.1.4 ?
Is it dangerous to flash a rom (cyanogen 9.1) with cwm 6.0.1.2 ?
Thanks
Seems I have no answer yet, I'm sorry I have forgotten to say it was a question !
So here new informations :
I updated with new 2.7 pack (posted by PhilZ today).
Now I have :
- CWM touch 6.0.1.4 when I start with vol up + home + power
- CWM 6.0.1.2 when i select "reboot in recovery mode" in rom manager...
This doesn't really disturb me, I just hope it will not cause problem when I'll flash to cyanogen mod 10 (I'm on stock ICS 4.0.4 right now)
If someone could confirm it will not blow up...
Thanks in advance
As far as I know, rom manager is not compatible for now, so better not use it.
Thanks for your answer.
Should I uninstall it, or can I keep it but just don't use it ?

You can leave it installed.
You can flash only recovery from Phillz, read last 1-2 Page of that thread

I've just read that.
I will not use rom manager anymore, unless I am certain it does'nt make a mess.
If you like bootloops
CM derived ROMs will never run along a stock kernel. You should keep the kernel CM ROM comes with

I'm a bit lost with that, I really should read other tutorials, as I don't understand why I can't go from cwm + stock 4.0.4, to cm10

Im Am Trying To Root My Samsung Galaxy Ace gts5830 And Everytime i try to install the zip file provided by the forum I Keep Getting Error
E:Error In /tmp/sideload/package.zip Installation Aborted .............PLZ Help
What firmware are you running? If its ktq there's a previous step (cuz that firmwares system is full). There's a thread on that.
Other than that, which zip are you trying to flash (maybe link to post)?
How are you trying to flash it?
It Is Android Version 2.3.4......Baseband s5830dtlki4..........kernel 2.6.35.7-perf-cl568978 [email protected] #1.
Build Gingerbread.dtlki4
I Went into Recovery mode And Tried root.zip and update.zip wich i cant remember exact thread but both were of the forum
And Ive Read Lots And Cant figure it out
There's one called AceGingerRoot.zip, same stuff, go ro recovery (stock recovery, not cwm recovery) install zip from sd card. Then just update the superuser app from the market and its binary:

thanks for your response but I've solved it now by doing the full /root/internal memory/ flash thing, I now have jellybean running on my SGA and lots more internal memory.

[SOLVED][Q][i9000] BootLoop problem after installing CWM

EDIT: Problem solved!
Hi all,
I just tried to install CWM Recovery on a Samsung Galaxy GT-I9000, and it didn't work.
The phone was (originally) running under Android Froyo (2.2), and unrooted. First of all, I used UnlockRoot to root it, and it worked fine. I checked the root access right after using dedicated apps (rootChecker, sdMaid, etc), to confirm.
Then I wanted to install a ClockWorkMod recovery. I followed this guide (on the CyanogenMod wiki). I downloaded and installed Kies to have the USB drivers installed. Then I downloaded Heimdall (my computer is running under Windows 7) + hardcore CMW Kernel. I booted into download mode, then installed the driver. (Step 2 on the tutorial). Then next step was flashing the kernel. It suceeded, and the phone powered off. Turning it on, it just starts to make endless boot loops. The system won't start running, and it is not possible to access to the CWM recovery menu. But the download mode is still available.
So, does anyone have pointers to help me fix this issue ? i would like to have CMW installed, and then install a custom ROM (the latest Jelly Bean based Cyanogenmod release).
Thanks in advance.
Just try again installing stock Rom with odin
See my post Here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1994759
Hi Donovan,
Thanks for the swift answer. And yes, it definitely worked. I downloaded this stock rom, and I flashed it successfully with Odin v3 1.85. I am running now under Android 2.3.6, but I lost the root access. Rooting it won't be a problem, hopefully. I still have access to the download mode, and to the stock recovery. I'll try once again to dive into the ClockWorkMod Recovery, and then install a Jelly Bean rom.
I'm hitting the thanks button right after posting this.
Thanks back at ya. Cf root you can find here

Dont forget the wiping before flashing jb.
Most times u have 2 flash custom twice.
If first time hangs just pull battery out, get in recovery & flash second time or third if its needed.
If it says install completed then its done
Much pleasure flashing the i9000
Actually, I spoke to fast, the problem just got much worse.
Okay, just after flashing the stock rom (2.3.6), everything was fine. Then I downloaded the latest stable CM10 (direct link).
I booted into recovery mode (CWM Recovery,actually) and I did try to install (i din't not forget wiping data/cache, dalvik and batt stats), but it failed, saying the package was incorrect. I tried many times, copying again and again the zip file, same problem.
Then I downloaded a previous version, CM9. I tried to installed it, and i run into a very weird error, saying an assertion failed when trying to install the package.
Something like;
assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device") == "galaxys" || getprop ("ro.build.product") == "galaxys" ... getprop ("ro.build.device") = GT-I9000 etc...
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
And then installation program aborts (error code 7.)
My assumption, is that it looks like my phone is no longer being considered by a samsung gt i9000, according to the installer. Weird, though...
Now, I still have access to the recovery. But the phone can't boot, as everything was wiped. Much worse, I can switch to download mode, but i can't flash back the stock rom, Odin can't detect the phone (I tried with Odin v3 1.82, 1.83 and 1.87).
I'm getting desperate, any pointers ?
Thanks in advance!
Did u try to flash the custom more then 1 time?
Oh yes, I did it like a dozen of times.And I still get the same error.

gti9000 rooting
Hi Donovan, could you help me please:fingers-crossed:
I've purchased a unlocked galaxy s gti9000 and I want to root it. Something I've never done on any phone as I'm a complete noob. I managed to install XWJW1 FIRMWARE. I've now got as follows PDA:I9000XWJW6
PHONE: I9000XWJW1
CSC: I9000XSAJV8.
All the links to the file for rooting seem to be dead. I've found some for rooting XXJVU, But that's not right is it? I would really like to try ICS or Jelly Bean. I must admit I'm nervous about this as it's taken me a while to get a phone as good as this one!! Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance
@Nooga:There is a very complete and straightforward guide here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1852546). You might want to take a look at it.
Now can we please come back on my topic ? Thanks!

Thanks Roland will give it a try tonight.
Well, that is now solved. I tried something silly that ended up working fine.
As the cm9-smtd update package couldn't run (because of the assertion fail), I just opened the zip package, then edited the file META-INF/com/android/google/updater-script.
I basically removed the assert statement at the top of the file.
CMW recovery installed it properly, without any err. I now have an ICS based rom (Cyanogen Mod 9).
Problem definitely solved now. Going to make a Nandroid backup.
Thanks all, again.

Clockworkmod Recovery not working!

Hello everyone,
I have a Galaxy Pop (Mini - S5570) with android version 2.3.6.
I have tried installing CWM 5.0.2.6, but all that happens is that my screen becomes illegible or in certain cases, I have booted into recovery after installing, and all it shows me is "android" and that it, it gets stuck there, and in each case, I have to install the stock firmware again.
I am hoping to install CWM to use Cyanogenmod on my device.
Please help!

you must install clockworkmod via odin if it's the first time. I think you flashed cwm via stock recovery, this causing soft-brick....

that's right, CWM can only be installed via Stock Recovery and instead with ODIN ! Odin can only be used for flashing stock rom and Bootloader
Well, tbh, I just did what he said and flashed it on with Odin and it has worked normally since then.
Flashed a lower vresion of CWM with Odin first then through the recovery, upgraded it to the latest one.
Worked fine for me.
yes your suggestion reaaly work , been trying update cwm 4 to 5 through odin always get an error..

[Q] N7000 CWM Recovery Upgrade to Latest Version

Hi, i have installed SlimBean ROM on my Note and CWM Recovery 6.0.3.2.
I read on forums that for latest CyanogenMod 10.2 i need newer CWM Recovery(ccurrent version 6.0.3.8).
I search how to upgrade to latest CWM Recovery and i found this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2201860
And here is link for download latest version for N7000:
http://d-h.st/users/philz_touch/?fld_id=25295#files
But i'm confused now, is on that link only CWM Recovery or is that Kernel with CWM?
Can i flash that file through current CWM Recovery (zip file) and get latest CWM Recovery Version?
Or can you tell me how to get latest CWMR Version.
I don't want use Custom ROM's based on Samsung firmware, i prefer CM based Custom ROM's (SlimBean and Bam Andorid),
so that's reason why i'm confused most about upgrading CWMR.
Thanks
You will have to use a kernel which has updated recovery.
