[Q] Unrooting a phone that used ODIN?? -N7000

Hey guys, Does anyone know how to unroot a Samsung Galaxy Note that was Rooted using ODIN (NetChip Method)? Am i the only one who made this mistake and cant unroot??
im not sure if there is already a thread existing about this, i couldnt find one.
i also tried using the "DoomLord_Unrooting" but didnt work for me neither, still have Superuser and still able to go to my system files.

replied just few min back, Dont remember wether on PM or your other thread.

Hey guys, I have the same problem. Tried the same method as above. Couldnt find the thread about it.
I Even tried to download the stock firmware from Dr.Ketan's post and use Odin but couldnt extract the files.
Please Help...
Thanks

you need to use jig, if you have raised binary counter, back to stock ROM, can't solve it.
BTW, use winrar/7zip to extract file.

Firstly, Thanks Dr.Ketan.
I am a newbie. Would you be able to share about 'jig' ?
Thanks in advanced again.

How to use JIG
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1354888

Using a jig is unfortunately the only way to reset your Samsung Note into a clean (warranty friendly) status. To be honest... it is some kind of "blind flight" because after loading the old ("wrong") bootloader via ODIN your device will show nothing after the reboot. Could be a little be scary for some people... but it works ;-)

Before I do this, I am going to use Odin to go back to stock.
I downloaded this firmware from your post:
N7000DXLA1 -------2.3.6 2012 January-----N7000OLBKL2-------Malaysia
Questions:
1. Do I need the PDA & CSC files to execute this unroot? Where can I obtain it? Have been searching for hours still cant find it.
2. What is the best way to root it again?
Thank you.

Single file .tar is enough, when u go back to stock with pc odin, it will automatically get unroot.
Installaion guide is there in post #2 from whr u downloaded.
There is best way is zergrush exploit.
Find it from my signature(first link)

What's the difference between rooting via zergrush vs. CF-root? How to cf-root?

I'd like to speed up my Note. Kinda sluggish at stock. Even iPhones are smoother. What is Rocket Rom & Litening Rom? Is it safe? Which is better? or are there any better ones out there?
Just before unrooting I was using AbyssNote2.3, 1.703GHz, alot of heating & no difference that it was earlier. Netchip was smoother.
Thanks

Zergrush n CF root using same exploit to Root. CF root have extra benifit that it pushes CWM along with Root.
Really I never used any custom ROM till day. N it depend on own choice n requirement. You can find details n review of other on corresponding ROM thread, I can't comment much on it.

Did you even read the sticky? If its still no rooted, try flashing a new stock rom via Odin and try rooting it again using the method mentioned in the sticky. Just in case you didn't understand what I'm rambling about here...the magic word of the day for you is.... 'STICKY'.

????????
No idea what u r rambling about .... no idea what u mean by STICKY, but i am new to the mobile chatter.
but i read the instructions yes .... and they seem to work with some phones and not with others ...
they do not work with mine and that's why i asked was there any root instructions that will work on 2.3.4 galaxy ace (DDKQ3) ...
so far, NO ONE has said YES.

Sticky means the sticky thread at the top of the galaxy ace forum. It has phone specific tutorials.

Wow how unhelpful are you
I also have galaxy ace on 2.3.4 purchased in late march. The current methods for rooting don't seem to work anymore. The person who started the thread and myself would like some helpful advice from some1 who knows something about how this stuff work. Cause we don't and that's why we post!

Flash the attachments, and you've got root access. I've been using them for 2.3.4 as well as 2.3.6. Works like a charm.
Oh, and BTW, these are from the STICKY thread!
EDIT: I take you know what FLASHING means?! If not then go learn that first before you go any further.And use the SEARCH option. It's not there for baking biscuits!

I have tried to flash:
AceGingerRoot.zip
Root.zip
Universal_GB_ROOT.zip
Update.zip
upd_1.zip
None of these actually work. The root.zip you recommend comes up with an error the aborts.
I have S5830T and I just purchased this last month so things may have changed since you rooted your device. I'll try recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.6-galaxyace-fix.zip after I research what it actually does (OMG - Yes I'll use the STICKY).
I hope you realise that if it waas as simple as flashing the root.zip that we would not actually need to post and ask for help!

Well, if Flashing doesn't work try to push all the stuff using ADB. It never fails. And that root.zip, I've been using it since day 1 and still use it whenever I flash to stock using ODIN. Never stopped working for Me. Try the ADB method, and report back. Let's hope for the best.And if possible post the log of the error which you get during Recovery flash.

OMG the sticky sucks big time:
- It is meant for noobs but it doesn't explain the process of rooting, flashing with ODIN or CMW in any detail (it just says do it!)
- The links are all broken
- There is information from many different people making no sense to anyone new to smartphones
I mean are you ****ing kidding me!!! What a mess!!!!
I didn't get an iPhone because of the jailbreaking bull**** so I got an android and now this ARRRRRRR
I just want to put in proxy settings so I can use my WIFI at work, but I have to ROOT!!! WHY!!!!!!
Looks like i'll be reading bull**** information all night.

I've attached a copy, just in case You get a feeling to try!

Thanks for the reply guys
I just tried UNIVERSAL_GB_ROOT_V11 because the one I tried was V10
It didn't work, however I noticed that when I boot into recovery I get the error
"applying Multi CSC Can't access to '/system/csc/TLP/system"
before I even run the root file!
I think this means I have to flash back to stock!
If so can you point me in the right direction for a ROM (I already have ODIN)

First help: Edit your post and put a more descriptive title, to attract the people who might be able to help you. With the current title, the entire thread will get skipped by most of us. Hint: Unrecoverable bootloader error after flashing CM 10.2 would be a good example.

"boot image signature Critical failure: Unable to start kernel. Unrecoverable boot loader error (0x00000002)."

u will feel a little confused because u are on 4.1.2. u must search good to find the new root way , the old is not working anymore but there is still in here ( not everyone is on 4.1.2 ofcourse )
for bootloader the hard , maybe hard ( its not hard after you do it once its like child game ) part is to install the windows drivers for adb fastboot. custom rom is easy u wont even notice anything. u will click it and it will be installed in 10 seconds or less. i wont provide you the links. its better if u search hard because if anything happen in the future and you want to update or change rom you will start looking again for someone to help.

Could you plz list what you use to custom recovery/ backup , and explain where efs is , its the entire file system? Does kies do that? Philz seems popular. What did you use to root too please

For me Philz is the best. Efs is on the root ( \ ) of your telephone, you can find it after root. Simply use Es File Manager whit root permission. For root I use autoroot chainfire with ODIN
