[Q] flashing latest european stock rom on non rooted device ?

hy guys,
is there any way to flash the latest official stock rom (XLA3 if i'm right),without having to root my SGN ?
thanks for your help,
Xinity

Hi xinity,
Just download the XLA3 stock rom and follow this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1386356 but read very carefully!
Unzip XLA3 and you will find odin in there for option 1 you dont need check fus if you already have the rom just go to step 5...But remember to read carefully
Or you use option 2 if you have all the files u need
Sorry for my english,
Kind Regards Funky

Just download said ROM, extract it.
open odin (U will get in download package)
Dont check 're-partition'
select PDA in odin with CODE * file
Modem - Modem *
CSC - Multi CSC *
put mobile in Download mode, attach to PC, once you will see yellow table on COM, set START
it will be flashed in 5-10 min.
Remember, LA3 is wipe version, you will lose all your setting n installed application
It is non rootable, you can't Root it directly.

Thanks man!

Thanks guys
I'll take a closer look at home.

You can't root la1/la3 directly. You have to root first older rootable rom, root it n use mobile odin or cwm to update la1/la3.

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).

[Q] How to root N7000XXLA4?

I have searched at the development page but I am not quite understand what to do for rooting LA4. Expect downgrading the firmware, is there any other ways to root N7000? I have already brought the micro USB resistant which can reset the binary count.
Baseband version: N7000XXLA4
Kernel version: [email protected]#2
Builder number: GINGERBREAD.ZSLA2

have you tried this???

Well, if you don't mind getting the yellow triangle and tripping the binary counter, the simplest way to root LA4 would be:
1. Download CF-Root LA4 kernel to your PC
2. Start PC Odin
3. Boot your Note into Download Mode (volume down + home + power)
4. Connect your phone to the PC
5. Wait for the drivers to get installed and for Odin to recognize your phone
6. Click on PDA and navigate to the CF-Root XL4 kernel
7. Click Start
It'll take about 10 seconds and your phone will be rooted. However, your binary counter will show 1.

I have brought a JIG (301ohm) Micro-USB. It can reset the counter, right?
Switch off the N7000 and reinstall the battery. Then put the JIG in the phone and remove it after getting download mode. That's all?
If it can do so, I will root by the method you provided.
Thank!!

Yeah you are going to use your hong kong rom.You cant root the rom which you have now.You have only three options:
1.Download and flash a pre-rooted stock rom and flash cf-root kernel to get cwm
2.Use Dr.ketan's method.Downgrade to rootable rom,use the script,upgrade to any rom using mobile odin
3.This method only can make you stay in your current Rom.Thats the method chasmodo said.Flash a cfroot kernel through PC odin.But by this method you get triangle and increase counter.
You cannot reset counter or remove triangle with jig as such.There is a sticky in Dev section for it.

That means I can choose either one of them and root, after that, i can use mobile odin pro to upgrade to ZALA2 (HK ROM) again?
And I can also unroot by flashing with stock ROM and kernel?

[Q] Lots Of Questions

Hello XDA Community,
I am an 2 year XDA veteran, so i am properly familiar with all things related to XDA.
I currently own a Xperia X10 Mini Pro and a Xperia Mini Pro....
I tinker a lot with these 2 phones. SE phones mainly need fastboot.....
I just brought a Samsung Galaxy Note(SGN) N7000 (India) a few days back and am really excited to run CM9 on it.....
But i have alot of unanswered questions.....
So i just need the community's help...
1. Does the SGN have a stock recovery....????
My cousin has a Galaxy Tab 8.9 and it had a stock recovery. I just flashed a zip to root it and another zip for CWM......
2. What exactly is ODIN....?????
The Tab 8.9 had ODIN with a Recovery but our SGN does not seem to have one.......
3. Is it safe to upgrade to official Samsung ICS......????
There is alot of talk going on in the forum about HARD BRICKING our SGN if we upgrade........
4. What do i exactly have to do to get CWM......????
The guides in Development Section by dr.ketan have me totally confused, though i have rooted my SGN using DoomLord's Kit............
I am new to Samsung devices ant dont know the way they work.....
So any help will be extremely appreciated.......
Thanks.

Whereas the ODIN in Tab 8.9 gave options to flash .zips and much more......
Help please......

Thats download mode, you use with odin from your PC.... use Vol up + home + power for recovery

Back to Stock Gingerbread from 4.1.1

Hello everybody. I am using the latest version of UTACKA 4.1.1 and now my phone's microphone stopped working and now I have to send for technical assistance. As is still under warranty, I need to reinstall the stock rom, and preferably Gingerbread, because of prob; ema Brick. How to proceed safely? Use Mac and can not do anything by Odim, install it via CWM. Where to download the rom Brazilian? What is the safest procedure? Hugs.

Check dr ketan sticky thread,all ur answers is there in original development forum

here is Dr. Ketan's thread, download stock GB firmware for Brazil from post #2 and if you are on Mac then use Heimdall to flash it. You cannot flash stock firmwares using cwm.
here is one of the many guides to use Heimdall.

I downloaded the rom GB sotck. Can I use Mobile Odin Pro? I leave the options marked to wipe data factory, cache and dalvik?

Yes, you can use mobile odin pro to flash stock firmwares, but I haven't used it so far, so cannot comment. Check in the thread link I have provided above, you will find instructions to use mobile odin in the same thread somewhere.

I did flash via Odin Pro, but now the screen does not come from samsung. The kies does not connect and Haindall a warning of "tar reader contained an invalid file size". What do I do now?

So, mobile odin completed the flash? Flashing GB on ICS/JB roms will end in boot loops, that's normal. go to stock recovery (vol up+home+power) and perform wipe.
