k. am downgrading Firmware to KL3 , and i need procedure. but mainly it should not effect binary counter.
It's not possible to root LA4 directly at the moment, so you'll need to downgrade your device first:
- Download a firmware that's rootable from here.
- Download Odin from the link provided above
- Enter "Download Mode" on your device by shutting your Note completely off, then press and hold Volume Down + Home button + Power button
- Start Odin
- Unzip the firmware (the zip file you just downloaded), and you'll end up with a md5-file
- Go to Odin and click "PDA" and choose the md5-file
- Press "Start"
- Wait
- Done
Now you can root the device and get CWM, so go to this thread and do the "I Want ROOT + CWM" at the end of the first post.
- After you're rooted download LA4 again from the first link in this post
- Transfer it to your Note
- Open CWM on your Note
- Flash it
Done. You now have a rooted LA4.

No it won't.
Just make 1 thing clear. binary count raise only, If you flash any custom ROM/Kernel with PC Odin.
Follow LordManhattan's advise and still once refer Installation guide in detail in post #2 n 3 of this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424997
Just to add, Downgrade Firmware shud be direct rootable. (before KL7), N if particularly i specify, I can say Downgrade first to indian ROM KL1, I have flashed this ROM in at least 5 Notes.
That means Flashing Custom ROM using CWM doesn't effect Binary Count rite??
if you flash using CWM or mobile odin it wont if you do using oding from PC it will still not sure about official firmware

Yep, this is what I did after going through Dr. Ketans post. I now have rooted LA4 , but my CWM app and recovery is only partial. I do not have option to do backup/restore on CWM on LA4. Is it a universal problem? Any ideas?

Hey,
Dr.Ketan, can you tell me please if there is a chance to root the original LA4 (never changed rom) if I don't have access to a Windows and only to a Mac?
I only want to root it for the basic tweaks and apps. Don't need a custom rom at the moment. I want to root it and use it as is while I wait for the official ICS.
Thanks.
There is no Queston of window or Mac,LA4 is non rootable, to get root, first u need to downgrade older rom.

Thanks. I got ahead of the events. I didn't meant that. I meant if I can do the procedure of downgrading and everything I might need to do in order to root or to install a custom rom or another stock using ONLY my Samsung Note and a Mac.
Q1: I can downgrade using a exclusively a Mac with Lion on it?
Q2: If the answer to Q1 is affirmative, can I root it after downgrade also using only Lion on Mac?
Thanks again!
I have never heard mac pc odin. Plz google for it. So without pc odin you cant downgrade.
Yes there was review i read, got root with mac. You just read my thread how to root...(u may find from my signature), i remember i have post a link somwhere, how to root using mac.

Yes, I saw there was one root with mac solution, but works only if the Note is rootable. LA4 is not. So I must downgrade first. )))))
Nevermind, I'll try to do it with Windows, somehow. Thanks!
I am also new to this, and this thread is very clear. The bit I do not understand is what Kernal I should be running. Custom roms available can have a variety of kernals e.g LA3, LA4 etc. Do i have to choose a rom that has a kernal compatible with my phone? is there some rational to running one kernal vs another? I notice that it may be possible to flash a rom and keep a previous kernal e.g a CF kernal. is this advisable? your advice would be very welcome.
You don't need to flash a new kernel. Most of the custom ROMs includes a custom kernel that's good enough, but if you're interested in testing a few of them then you can do it without any problems.

Now is when I am lost. I did all the above (thanks, by the way) and I run KKA now. I had LA4 (Germany) when bought it, then downgraded to root.
Now I am rooted but when I try to update firmware with CWM, nothing happens. I have to put the ZIP in the Note or the MD5? I tried with the MD5 two times.
Is there something I do wrong? Is any other method apart from CWM? I mention that when I downgraded and first booted, CWM said something about "not being compatible and some functions were disabled".
Any ideas?
EDIT:
I couldn't work it out as expected and I went back to my original LA4 (Germany).
sup xda!?
I was trying to ask for this in the General Thread for CM9 but only found trouble..
After looking through the thread for over an hour, I still couldn't find a comprehensive guide on how to install CM9 on my device..
I know that you need PC-Odin for it, you need gapps and of course the zip of the ROM, but I just can't figure out what to flash, what Kernel to flash and how to..
As I saw many people asking about this, I think it would be greatly appreciated if one of you pros could spare the -minutes- it takes to give us noobs some info..
I am currently on the latest Stunner build and on the LP6-Kernel..
thanks for any help! peace
EDIT:
ok, copperdawgnc sent me to this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424997
and told me:
"This will show you how to use PC ODIN & has GB roms to download"
so it seems that we need to use PC-Odin, as expected, and install a GB Rom first..
I know how to use Odin a bit but I still don't know what to install..
what Kernel, which ROM, any ROM? and do I really have to flash an unrooted stock and re-root..? why is that necessary?

thanks!
so, it should go like this:
1 get ODEX PRE ROOTED N7000XXLC1 (Europe) or ODEX PRE ROOTED N7000DXLC2 (Malaysia)
2 install via PC-Odin
2.1 get PIT file and choose the 3 (?) files mentioned in the screenshot
3 after it's done: download Mobile ODIN
2. download CF-Root-SGN_XX_OXA_LC1-v5.3-CWM5.zip
3. load CF-Root kernel using Mobile Odin
4. get back into recovery
5. wipe data
6. install cm9 and gapps
7. wipe
8. done?
seriously?
wouldn't it work if we only install the CF-Root-Kernel LC1 (?) and flash CM9 from there through Odin?
LC1 or some other Kernel?
thx
Thanks for posting this question, MrKancho. I can't help, but have the exact same situation myself, with imilka's CM9 rom. Just want to confirm that the installation method you outlined works without any problems before trying it myself.
Thx

You want to flash CM9 through Odin?
And how do you propose to flash a zip file using Odin?
:facepalm:
You flash CM9 and Gapps using CWMR.
Hi all, I need somebody to give me some advice please.
I'm trying to root/install CM9 on my Galaxy Note (already running official ICS), I've tried several versions, all of which have entirely failed to get me past step one:
Heimdall: when I use CMD to initialize the zImage flash, it tells me "Failed to send data!"
Odin: Phone refuses to appear in Odin
Can somebody please help me?

Do you have all the required drivers installed? Maybe you should install Kies first to have all the required driver files.

You need not to use PC odin
Just look to thread shahil have said you
follow method 1A (if your kernel is listed there) and you are readyu to flash custom ROM, just wipe cache and data before flashing custom ROM
If your kernel is not there
Then choose method 1B
followed by flash Safe kernel like Hydarcore and with Mobile Odin
and make wipe cache and data and proceed to custom ROM installation

stuck in Samsung logo just mean you need to just fullwipe factory in CMW. but be sure you are on safe kernel such as Speedmode or Hydracore before wiping.. i dont know if xxls2 kernel is brick free or not. but stucking at samsung logo has always been solved by fullwipe factory in my case

It takes some time to boot up after you flash a rom..just wait for few minutes and see if it boots up
And how did you flash the rom..i mean what rom,kernel and did you do the wipes

that is correct. takes times. but if you waited more than 10 minutes try flashing other rom.. safest method is pc odin.

tell us how you flash it. via PC ODIN or ClockWorkMOD.?
as for the kernel if you have Extrnal sdcard then download SpeedMod 3-15 or Hydracore kernel than put that in your external Sdcard. Open CMW than flash the kernel then go to advance>reboot recovery.. wait for recovery rebooted than you are safe to flash other rom.

since you flash through PC ODIN means everything is stocked. Means the brick bug is present. you now only have samsung stock recovery and not ClockWorkMod.
if you are planning to install just Samsung Stock Rom then this step is applicable here

From where did you download the rom..it it was downloaded from sammobile or from that hotfile link,then you should flash it through pc odin
And if its a custom rom that you downloaded from the xda,then it should be flashed through cwm
the Sam mobile and the hot link are the same. youncan flash the rom using pc odin. but before that put the philz kernel xxls2 in the external sd. so that after the flash using odin, you can boot into recovery and flash that kernel and be safe and do the wipe.

Gents, Can you please clarify before I am going to do below. And advise if this is the proper way.
• Flash GB (2.3.6) and wipe
• Then flash ICS (4.0.4)
• Download Notecore (or Speedmod, CF root kernel) kernel and flash by PC-Odin
• Then copy N7000XXLS2 (LEAK) to SD card.
• Boot to CWM recovery, then flash from SD, restart.
Thanks.

Hello Every Body
Appreciate your help as i am new to this .
I have Galaxy GT-N7000 , & I rooted it with Stock Recovery+Safe Kernal + CWM Recovery as in this post
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2217840
it work great with no problem at all , then i update CWM recovery using ROM Manager & try to backup my ROM using ROM Manager , the phone is restarted directly & stuck at Galaxy Note GT-N7000 LOGO and stop booting , i can't go to recovery mode , i can only go to download mode
How to solve this problem ?
is there any solution to fix this problem & keep my data on phone ?
I am a beginer , this is my 1st post & the only thing i do is to root my device and use the apps
Please:
1- write detail instructions or link to a post so i can follow & learn what to do
2- Appreciate to put a link to any needed tools
Thank you
Rom manager is horrible. And useless.
If you can enter download mode, just Odin flash a stock firmware and redo the steps to get recovery. You should only create rom backups via recovery, Rom manager does not seem to support the Note 1
