[Q] Root GT-N7000 with JP LA1 kernel - Help please...

I am beginner in Android + root.
I was using G-Note (GT-N7000) with kernel JPKK2. And I have been rooted with the help of Unlock Root. But, recently I got a new update JPLA1 and I lost my root access. I tried the same Unlock Root utility and zergRush, unfortunately no luck.
So anyone can explain how to root again my G-Note with step by step instruction as I am beginner

You are not able to get root on KL7/KL8/LA1 or newer. See here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1329360
If you want to gain root you have to reflash an older stock rom via odin.
See post 2 and 3 of this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424997
It's very well explained and works great! Just follow every step.
So which is the latest Rom that you will recommend for me. I prefer Rom for Middle east or India. Advise please...

That depends on your location.
Try using the latest rootable firmware of your country.
Thanks for your prompt replay. you help me lot.
One more stupid query; for example If I choose Indian ROM that will support almost Indian languages, right? and that Indian ROM will support even middle east GSM carrier?
Advise please...

Download rooting guide from last link on my signature.

I would say "Yes" and "Yes".
So I think you're indian and for sure you have to use the indian firmware.
I don't know about any issues relating to the GSM carrier.
I update Indian ROM from Dr.ketan's link. And working fine now. And I root again. Many thanks.
And hope I will get the updates from this series Rom, even if am outside the India. Right?

Which stock ROM to use?

Hi guys,
So this is my first android phone. I bought it in Shanghai, so it comes with bunch of chinese crapware preinstalled which is really annoying.
After doing some research, it appears that the only way for me to get rid of that is to root the phone (which I've never done before).
I have two goals in mind:
1) being able to delete all the crapware that came preinstalled with the phone
2) being able to install "market enabler" so that I can download "real" apps
I have downloaded Dr. Ketan's guide on how to root the SGN.
My phone's info:
Build Number: GINGERBREAD.ZSLA2
Baseband version: N7000XXLA4
So, from the guide it appears that I dont have a direct rootable ROM, and I need to flash (is that what its called?) it with Odin.
Now, I have downloaded the "SGN_XX_OXA_KJ1_FACTORYFS.zip" file. Correct me if I am wrong, but I am guessing that this file is the "rooted factory ROM"...
However, later I came across this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424997 with bunch of [stock ROMs].
My goal is to have "normal/factory/oem/stock/whatever you call it" ROM, with SuperUser access aka root.
So, the question is - should I stick with the guide and use "SGN_XX_OXA_KJ1_FACTORYFS.zip" ROM or should I flash it with one of the ROMs from the [stock roms] thread?
Cheers!

You can do either
KJ1_factoryfs if pre rooted ROM, you won't need to root it after downgrading
While if you downgrade any rootable ROM from stock ROM thread you have mentioned, you have to root it.

BTW,
do I need to install CWM? I am not planning on installing other ROMs or anything like that... just want to wait for the official release of ICS, that's all.
Not compulsory.
You can also purchase mobile odin pro, if you want to update rom to latest version.
Or u can use as it is. But kj1 or any older rom are not tuned as newer one, may experience battery drainage, leg etc, but if u r satisfied, thn you can keep it till ics.

It simply means that you'll have to wait for the update. Some are getting OTA some via KIES. Don't worry about the message your getting from KIES. I got.tiff and 2 weeks later it updated to a new version and ran the update to ICS. Its rolling out slowly in different regions.
If you can't wait head over to sammobile.com and grab the firmware to flash yourself with Odin...

the OP said they distant want to root!
As a previous poster has said you have two choices really. 1. wait for the official OTA release, or 2. Download an existing stock ROM that had already been released and flash that using Odin.
Instead of using SamMobile you could download FUS Checker, and use that to download a ROM that matches your configuration (if available.) FUS Checker is a Windows app that searches Samsung servers in the same way as Kies but allows you to download and decrypt the file so you can flash it with Odin.

if you know someone in the states, send it to them and let them do it and send it back
You should just be able to download the firmware and flash through Odin. It will update everything for you. The only problem is it will factory reset your device. So backup everything. Once you update to 5.0 or above, you can not flash back to KitKat. Just unzip the file, open Odin, click ap, find the file, then flash.

Thanks for yours reply.
I don´t know anyone in us.
If I change android rom, Must I change kernel and modem?
To update ROM, the baseband is: G900AAUCU2ANG3, what rom is compatible? Or the baseband doesn´t matter?
Can I install this in my phone and my baseband?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/att-galaxy-s5/general/g900aucs4cpa2-odin-files-em-hot-t3372388
Yes. It's only one file. It takes care of kernel and modem. You don't have to do anything else besides flash the one file.

OP,
You will not be able to update the smg900a as long as you are on a network other than at&t . I have the same model and it came with kit kat .
I used this method http://forum.xda-developers.com/att...w-to-update-to-g900aoca-5-0-keeproot-t3076803
Please be sure to back up your info . You can use your internal storage if you dont have a SD card to store the two files.
Good luck.
Thanks
I could do with ODIN and this files: http://forum.xda-developers.com/att-galaxy-s5/general/g900aucs4cpa2-odin-files-em-hot-t3372388
My phone works very good.
