You are following instructions from another forum and you want advice here on their post . I suggest you ask the forum that you are getting this rom from .Who knows what instructions are might be completely different advice given here .
Or search here for backing up efs folder .

Hello
I need to Root my stock ROM, I try all software and methods , no one work for me (V20a) , and I know I can use SmartFlash Tool to flash new ROM patched, but I will lose Arabic Menu, and I know I can use any patched ROM without wipe after install it and I will keep old ROM, but the problem is the old ROM will not work correct.
Q: How to patch stock Rom?
I found stock ROM here

Hi, this might be asked a hunded times before, but i'm new to ROMs and looking for some feedback.
What are the steps for using a Custom ROM? Is it at all recommended for someone that haven't rooted his phone to go down that path already or should i stick with more basic stuff for now?
Is there any step by step good guide to start? I've been trying to root my phone using odin, but it's failing, will need to research a bit more.
Thank you
you need rooted device to install custom rom, because they use CWM recovery wish needs device to be rooted
rooting your phone is as easy as saying it , dont worry.
the easiest way is to flash jw4 gingerbread(2.3.6),and flash cf-root afterwards CF-ROOT , flash the version compatible with jw4 it is down there in the first page. read thoroughly before flashing.
any other question, feel free to post here i will help if i can.

I'm trying to install now following this instructions for this custom ROM:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1776738
Basically i rooted with the jvu, then the CT-ROOT kernel, and now i'm stuck at installing the ROM, it brings a .zip which i tried to copy to the internal memory. There's a signed and an unsigned version of the zip, the signed gives "signature validation error", the unsigned gives "no space on the device error"
You need to flash CM9 first before flashing anything based on CM9/CM10 or any ICS/Jelly Bean ROM in general. First flashing will give you a bootloop, don't worry and flash again!

Download Philz kernel from here (there should be one for your version (LPT) otherwise get one just as close (LPx . 4.0.x)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1901191
once done, stick it on your sd card (internal preferably)
Now, download a JB ROM of your choice and place that on your sd card too (same place / folder and philz kernel (so its easier to find))
Now, flash philz kernel in recovery (stock or cwm) and then reboot recovery (under advanced)
from here you can continue to do all the wipes (or go to philz settings and choose 'clean for new rom') and then proceed to flash the JB ROM of your choice.
Notes to consider:
1. Not all ROM installations are the same, so be sure to double check the instructions from your chosen ROMs thread!
2. Wiping data will lose all your apps and data (not media, pics, music etc) So be sure to have a backup - Titanium is a good app for this, but requires root.
3. If you cannot find philz kernel for your version (LPT) and decide to use another version instead, your ROM may not boot, So if you need root to back up your stuff before the update, I would suggest to try another rooting method such as ExynosExploit.
4. Dont be overwhelmed by everything, it looks daunting, but once you know the procedure its really simple
Or use PC odin to install JB 4.1.2 XXLSZ.. no need to root..
please confirm

Hello,
I have to tell you that I'm completely new at this, and therefore even more uncertain to start doing the job I think that needs to be done, without having you guys consulted first.
Two weeks earlier, after reading and studying the internet for lots and lots of hours, I decided to flash my Samsung Galaxy Note GT-N7000 (Netherlands), using the Odin3 (v.1.83) software, with the downloaded German firmware version: N7000XXLSZ_N7000OXALSZ_DBT. And fortunately, to my own big surprise, everything just worked out fine and I’m having Android Jelly Bean 4.1.2 installed and running in Dutch.
A few days ago, I read the message on the internet that for the Note GT-N7000, the Dutch firmware version: N7000XXLSZ_N7000XENLS4_XEN, finally became available and was now to be downloaded here http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/ . And so I did…
As I stated before, I am completely new at this and here are some questions I would like you to help me out with:
1. A little voice in my head keeps saying, that I should “re-flash” my Note again to have the right firmware for my smartphone. Although I would very much like that, would you also advise me to do so?
2. If so, would it be just as simple, using Odin3 again, as I did before (so: “just flash”) or am I thinking too simple now? So, whatever the answer, could you please explain me the procedure I should follow to have the Dutch firmware installed – if so advised by you?
3. I am also thinking about rooting my Note. I have seen several instruction videos on the internet, but most of them were explaining about rooting the Note that still had the Android Ice Cream firmware installed. I am not sure if I could “simply follow” that procedure, let alone, if the rooting software the videos are talking about would also work on an Android Jelly Bean smartphone?
4. If Odin3 also is capable of rooting my smartphone, would it be easier for me (being a novice) to use Odin3 as well for this purpose?
5. Would you please be so kind to advise me in this matter as well with the procedure for me to be followed and the software to be downloaded and/or used?
I really hope to hear real soon from you.
Thank you!
Robert.
1. there is not much of a difference between the 2 firmwares apart from a few widgets and lock screen shortcuts ( i think). its up to you if you want.
2. yes same procedure will just do fine for the new firmware too. detailed tutorial http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424997
3. easiest way is using one of these kernels. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1901191. it will auto root and safe.. procedure requires an SD card. same explained here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1329360 procedure 1A
4. odin can be used to root but it will cause the counter to raise and yellow triangle at boot... so use the 1A method
5. As explained above

Thank you for your swift reply.
Advising me to use the "1A method", it says:
Installation
1.a Pre installation : (For clean installation, optional)
- Make backup with Titanium Backup or other similiar app.
- First flash GB ROM if you are on any other ICS/Custom ROM
- wipe cache, data from recovery on GB ROM
Would it be safe for me to think that, flashing my Note again, the "1A method" does not apply to me at this moment since I already have the JB ROM (4.1.2) installed and running? Also, when I flashed my Note earlier with the JB ROM (4.1.2) through Odin3, all the data on my phone was kept intact. Was I lucky here, or does that all make sence?
Now, reading most of these forums, I often stumble upon the word "kernel", which frightens me a bit because these "kernels" mostly need to be downloaded for use. What is it, talking about kernels, that you are really talking about then? I mean, I don't suppose that a kernel is the same as my N7000XXLSZ_N7000XENLS4_XEN firmware?
You also advised me to make use of this kernel http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1901191 but, using this link, I don't see and/or understand WHAT I should be downloading or WHERE I should be downloading this kernel.
Could you PLEASE (!) take me by the hand here (step by step), before I mess everything up and with that, killing my Note?
I hope to hear from you again soon.
Thank you!
Robert,
Netherlands.:fingers-crossed:
- 1A is not from the link you are referring to.. its in the 3rd step.. to root.. donot follow 1A from the first link. its not needed.
- yes.. even when you flash the Dutch rom.. it will be intact if you donot do a wipe..
- the kernel i linked you to is a safe kernel which when installed auto roots the device and install CWM recovery..
here is a link to the LSZ kernel http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=39105835&postcount=2749

OK! Thank you again!
Excuse me for still having some small questions left, although I begin seeing the light...
I've downloaded the kernel: PhilZ-cwm6-XXLSZ-OXA-4.88.2-signed (name of the RAR-file). Should I use both the Dutch ROM and the downloaded kernel-file to have them both installed, if so - in which follow-up?, or am I talking non sence here? Or, is the Dutch Rom included in the kernel-file?
I cannot start with the procedure right away, because I have to go to work now; maybe later tonight. I'll also have to find out first how to install the kernell through Odin3, unless ofcourse you could tell me right away.
Anyway, thank you for your help so far.
Again, I hope to hear from you - provided I'm not annoying you!
Robert
Its just the kernel,., its to root your phone.. you can use it on the current rom you have or later after installing the new rom.
is the Dutch Rom included in the kernel-file?

No.. considering the fact that rom size >= 900 MB and kernel size >= 8MB

Thank you again! But I am afraid, I still need your help .
After unzipping the Kernel file in a map on my desktop (see picture), I see three maps with several maps and more files included and the "zImage" file (which I think is the actual Kernel file?). Could you please tell me what to do next to let it all work within Odin3? Which file(s) should I pick and how and where do I connect them to Odin3? In short: ehhh... help?:crying:
Maybe I am making too much trouble out of it and am I seeing bears on the road that aren't even there - If so, I appologize. But please, take me by the hand here... A small relief however: I AM learning from your answers...
I hope to hear from you soon.
Thank you!
Robert,

you donot need to unzip it.. just copy that file onto the ext sd card.. boot into recovery and choose apply update from external storage..
