Hello,
I just bought and received a tmobile 16 gb tab today off of ebay. Im not new to android. I have a droid pro and tmobile g2x. Both have cwm and able to replace factory recovery with cwm.
The tab is already rooted via superoneclick, chainfire's patch been applied.
I tried searching for cwm permanent for the tab but seem to not find a clear cut process to get a cwm recovery. Can anyone please point me in the right direction. My tab is currently running 2.2 foyo. I already know since the tab has different version and is available for many carriers, that roms are very different

If you have a gsm version, you can flash the overcome rom, it has cwm built in. Look at the overcome site or thread for instruction.
Yeah I just read through it.
So I can go ahead and load overcome via odin? Wheres stock 2.2 firmware just incase it soft bricks?
Its a gsm tab but I only use it over wifi
And should download jupiter nowipe or wipe version?

thank you very much, im downloading the stock safe v5 gingerbread from their site
what happens if i want to flash the cm7 testing rom or another rom in the forum? would cwm disappear?
or is it in essence perm. cwm even if i switch roms
so i followed instructions to the T and odin tool saying fail so i guess it has been bricked
im re-trying again
do i select re-partition?? because odin tool is doing nothing after retrying
have you checked your bootloader as tell in the tutorial ?
It fails at which step ? Is your bootloader locked or unlocked ? Did you put it in download mode ?
Thanks for the concerns, i ended up fixing the issue
Let it die and tested to see if it even charged when i connected it to power outlet. With stroke of luck, got it back to dl mode and now running overcome
If i flash a different rom will overcome kernel will still be on my tab? So i can keep cmw on it?

If you flash via cwm, you will still have cwm.
Cool thanks. So it will keep the kernel unless I flash a new one via odin
Ima try flash cm7 build via cwm
Sent from Galaxy Tab 7" W/ Overcome Rom
Beware not all zip files are flashable with cwm. If it's not specified, don't do it or you will brick your tab.

If you are going to try cm7 its best to flash stock safe gingerbread again, and flash cm7 through hiedmal rather than cwm

Hi Guys
I seem to be stuck in a bootloop.
I tried flashing the latest GERMAN ICS (LPY) usind Dr.Ketans Guide. I Used Mobile ODIN PRO.
What seems to happen now, is when I turn on the phone it loops from the Samsung Splash Screen to a short burst of mobile odin/chain fire (Blue Android in background)
I'm not sure how to proceed, since my home button doesnot work too..
Any help would be appreciated
PS: I was rooted running STOCK gingerbread.

you're lucky. but i wondered why that happened to your note. i also flashed lpy and cf-root kernel from GB using mobile odin pro but it was successful. yesterday i did a full wipe and format the internal storage and now my note is super smooth and the battery lasts more than before (GB).

Ok I would suggest to try PC Odin to flash the Rom.
And maybe just STAY away from LPY at the moment, unless its absolutly necessary. I flashed my note with LPY and regret it since I have NO root, and am afraid to copy any large files to the storage.. Due to the kernal issues.
If you do decide to flash LPY make sure its through PC Odin and you dont do a wipe.
Can you get your Note into download mode?
Sent from my GT-N7000 using Tapatalk 2
This is how i did it:
Flashed LPY with odin PC (untick auto reboot)
Flashed CF-root with PC odin (untick auto reboot)
Booted into CWM and flashed franco r3 that i had on my sdcard
Reboot phone again in CWM on franco's kernel and then wipe/factory reset.
Running LPY like a boss!

Yes CF-root kernel is affected, but i think its no problem to flash franco with it because you wont touch the factory reset/wipe.
I'm not 100% sure if flashing a kernel on cf-root kernel uses the MMC_CAP_ERASE command.

So what would you suggest? I'm on Stock LPY.. I obviously want root... Flash franco and root?

i was on stock unrooted GB and flashed the official german LPY the day it was released via pc ODIN (before the warnings came about), everything is fine uptill now, i dont plan on rooting or using any sort of rom... am i in the clear or should i be worried???
---------- Post added at 09:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:47 PM ----------
what i mean is am i ok for now? or should i roll back to GB, also, as i am on the official german ICS and unrooted, will i get future official OTA updates??
bump!!! anyone?
Hi,
I'm a newbie/noob here in xda-developer.
I used to own an s2 and now i have a galaxy note International Version GT-N7000. Both of them i have rooted. Anyway, i used my old external SD card in my note (came from my s2). I have installed a custom rom in my note (Half - illusion) but noticed that it doesn't have the S Memo and S Note so i decided to switch back to a previous rom i have installed before. My bad that i got confused that I installed an S2 custom rom (Foxhound) instead of the other custom rom for s3. now i'm stuck.
i can't go to download mode. (vol up + home +power). when i turn on the phone, it will only show the galaxy note screen then will eventually fade (my screen will turn to gray with lines).
Please help. is this hard - bricked? is there a way to resolve this? maybe there's like an "odin" that i can just erase the installed s2 rom and install the right rom.
Thank You in advance.
You never mentioned recovery ? does it work ? I assume it wont.
You should try the USB JIG, you can make them or buy them of ebay, That should force you into download mode and allow you to flash a stock firmware FOR THE GALAXY NOTE and get you back on track.
if the JIG doesn't work, try to claim under warranty and blame it on a factory reset / brickbug, Or claim on insurance (if you have it)

got kind of confused between recovery and download mode. which is which?
one thing for sure is i can not open my phone.
power + volume up + home --> screen becomes super blurry and turns blueish gray.
power + volume up&volume down + home --> goes into odin mode. only says downloading. do not turn off target
when i say factory reset to samsung, that means when i did it inside my phone through settings --> backup/reset --> Factory Data Reset? do you think it is possible rather than saying i was asked to upgrade to ICS?

Download mode is Vol down+ home + power, if you can enter it then simply flash Gingerbread stock firmware using pc odin and everything will be fine. Check original dev sticky by Dr.ketan to download stock GB rom for your region and flashing instructions.
Also, stock ICS kernels are not safe to wipe in recovery or in setting, don't do it, it will brick your phone.

thank you for this information. However I would like to know why you mentioned GB rom? is this on the assumption that my phone is still running in Gingerbread? how would you know if a phone is still on stock ICS kernels?

I mentioned GB, so that you can safely wipe if required, you cannot do it on stock ICS roms because of the brick bug, check this. You will be on stock ICS kernel when you update to official ICS rom either via kies, OTA or pc odin and havent changed the kernel to some safe custom kernel yet.
Edit- yes, it's the same thread, check post #2 for GB roms. pc odin is used to flash stock firmwares (except few custom roms) and does not raise custom binary count if you flash anything stock. after flashing stock rom using odin you will be unrooted again so doesn't matter if you are rooted or unrooted now.

Thank you. is this the link you are referring to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424997&highlight=dr+ketan ?
i think i read in another forum that pc odin is used to flash custom rom from an official samsung rom. The wya i understood it, since i am already rooted and was running in a custom rom, then this isn't for me. otherwise, it will do something with my binary counter and will void my samsung warranty.
Wait I am updating here
Just don't do anything if you have download mode working

Yep, just make sure you download the latest version (2.3.6). The country and what rom you flash exactly does not matter. This is based on the assumption that you don't have a carrier locked device.
Ok here is steps for you
-Download pit file (it is for 16Gb, if your device isn't 16Gb but 32Gb let me know before proceed)
-Flash with Odin for PDA
-Download KL3 India ROM
-Extract it (pw is samfirmware.com)
-Flash using Odin
here you have to select both file
pit file for pit tab and ROM tar file for PDA
-After successfull flashing reboot to recovery and wipe cache and data
Hope this should work
feel free to ask if you have any confusion.

I recently rooted my GS5 with Towel Root and installed SafeStrap Recovery... I made a Nandroid recovery. Then I wiped cache/dalvik and system then installed a Rom and when it booted the screen was plain black.
Now when i power on my device all I see is Samsung boot screen with the Custom Unlock.
I can't get into the Recovery any longer and I've downloaded the Stock firmware and have tried flashing through Odin 1.85, 3.07 and 3.09
PLEASE ANY HELP WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED

Yes Odin does recognize device. And I have tried that link.. it has all 4 parts that odin flashes, but it always fails. Tried different ports, 2 different usb 2.0 micro usb cords and even the samsung gs5 cord. I also tried a stock firmware I got from http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/

You did not try to flash all 4 files did you, because the BL file will always fail? You only flash 3, the AP, CP, and CSC files.

Yesterday I uninstalled xposed, then my phone went into boot loop. After that I did a factory reset etc. then tried to flash stock firmware via odin but when I hit the start button, it directly fails. Now I cannot open my phone because there is no Android OS in it right now, all I have galaxy note 5 logo.
