Help regarding 'Franco.Kernal' updates for UK SNote please? - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello Members, i have a UK SNote GT-N7000 and it's running ICS 4.0.3, it's also using the 'franco.kernal r5'.
The kernal was installed during a procedure i followed from RootGalaxynote.com on rooting ICS SNote without needing a computer to do it, (just running CW recovery.zip, then using it to installed files for superuser, then installing franco kernal r5)
What i've found is that there are updates of franco kernal form version R6 right upto R12 through web searching,, and searching this forum, do these updates apply to my UK SNote and if they do, should or can they be installed using the same method as i did when following the Rootgalaxynote video tutorial.
I know there is a Franco Kernal Updater on the Google Play market, and another one from the same developer specific to SNote, but this app hasn't been updated for a while or so the reveiws point out, anyway i'd rather not run any additional sofware just to update the kernal if it can be done in the same way as it was originally .
Any help from members, and any links to the correct franco.kernal version download for my SNote would also be a great help.
kind regards
Livio

That's an SGS3 kernel!
As far as I'm aware Franco doesn't support the Note anymore.

I also heard / read that the dev. of the Note kernel has stopped. I think V6 is the latest / last release....

Sorry!!!!! today my pc got crazy......

Thanks Members, but I feel I'm still a bit confused so bear with me please.
So far my understanding from your replies is that the Franco. Kernal r6 is the last version supporting the SNote, but there are millions who have the phone and have installed franco's Kernal thinking that when Samsung issues the UK official ICS 4.0.4 update, and possibly Jelly bean's 4.1 in GNote's future, that surely the Kernal will need tweaking and have bugs working with these upcoming updates.
This is a real let down..... Franco, if your reading this please change your mind, and continue to monitor your Kernal for the SNote, after all, what will happen next when the SNote 2 comes out, we he drop SGS3 support, The SNote 2's only round the corner.
The other point I was confused about was needing to install 'mobile odin' if I was going to update to version r6. As I mentioned in my original post I didn't need to install any software to install Franco. Kernal r5 other than using CW mod recovery, the video instructions I followed (link below)
rootgalaxynote(dot)com/galaxy-note-root/how-to-root-ics-on-galaxy-note-gt-n7000-no-computer-required/
Also, if I wanted to download Franco.kernal r6, could I use the file copy from the same 'downloadandroidrom.com website described in the video tutorial above (address below)
downloadandroidrom(dot)com/file/GalaxyNote/kernels/FrancoICS

I saw the video (no computer required root), you want to use the same matodo francokernel to update, simply download the zip file and flash CWM recovery!

Thanks devid801 for the help, and link to franco's thread.
I'll give it a go later today using the same install method, hopefully I won't 'brick' the phone doing it, I'll post back whatever the result.

Hi devid801, I followed what I did before and think the Kernal has been successfully updated, but can't be sure, if it has then the Kernal version of the phone now reads.....
3.0.15 - Franco. Kernal
Francisco @ Francisco #6
SMP PREEMPT WED JUN 13 01:13:24 WEST 2012
..... Is the '#6' part above the indication that it is now version 6 (I know it may seem obvious to others, but I don't know for sure)
At the moment the phone running well, so a confirmation from you, or another member would be great.
Regards

This flashes fine thru Odin, thank you.
Rom Manager App does not recognize that clockwork mod recovery has been flashed though (and I did not try to flash it from that App). So it seems the only way to do backups and recovery is thru the actual Recovery Menu.
I need to contact Koush and see what needs to be done in order for the App to have support for our device. Haven't done that yet, been busy working on CM9.
Ok, I've added a p6800 recovery for someone brave enough to test it (I don't have the device to test on).
(Nevermind, fixed it - thanks for the new version!)

Anyone have any ideas?

I've had the same issue (with more than one version of the root package), I had to go back to 5.0.2.7 for this reason.
This version was also incapable of loading up the backups I made with 5.0.2.7, is that to be expected or a bug?
Sorry.. Forgot to update here.. I flashed via Odin and successfully made it! Thanks! Waiting for something great cooked before I use CWM oftenly.. :thumbup:

whats this one do over the initial CWM release? I've been flashing steve's tweaked stock merrily using the original CWM all the way to the recently released v3. Do you need this one to do the ICS alpha or something like that?

I guess so.. I experienced this kind of problem before on my X-HTC Tattoo where I need CWM version 5.x.x then I can only flash nightlies from CM7.. If I'm not mistaken 'build 7 error' or something sounded like that.. It just wouldn't install any CM7.

Visit the cwm link in this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=25272623 if you need a working cwm for the vzw 7.7.
You won't find many brave souls with a vzw 7.7 for this version of cwm as there is no stock firmware out (that I know of) to revert to if **** goes wrong.

So, I'm new to Galaxy S. Need Help :)

Hi guys,
I own a Galaxy S i9000 mobile.
It's running on :
Android 2.3.3
Baseband : DXJV9
I have not rooted it or did anything till now.
I wanna flash ICS AOKP on my mobile..
I have tried using the search option but still im soo deserted.
Can you guys guide me on how to root,flash CWM recovery, and flash ICS please ?
and Does Galaxy S supports ROM Manager ? coz i've been using Galaxy Ace before and it didn't support it..
Thanks a lot
For Root read this.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=788108
You need to download file ending in JVP. Usually you want the one ending with last 3 digits of your baseband but as there is no JV9 JVP is close enough and is reported as working. Besides it does not really matter as you just need this for root.
Once you have root you can simply follow the guide in the AOKP thread...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1524108
I know you have stated you want AOKP but if you want a bullet proof simple way to get this all done start with this thread for Team ICSSGS.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1494493
I usually like to make sure I have all necessary files, roms & programmes before starting so if anything goes wrong I can get my phone working again. This tutorial will help you with that also.
After following all of this you should have a good understanding of what to do and then you can flash AOKP as their instructions are kind of limited.
Also when choosing an ICS Rom this is a great thread with regards to performance.

AOKP is a wonderful choice.
But if I can give you an advice, wait for the next Milestone which is expected to be released over the next few days

That link for flashing Team ICSSGS has help for everything else. From downloading stock rom to flashing with Odin to flashing ics (in this case team icssgs)
You could potential substitute Team ICSSGS for AOKP.
I got another question..
does Semaphore ICS kernel works on my baseband (i.e - DXJV9) ?

and finally, Which version of the kernel should i use for official AOKP b34? 1.1.0 or 1.1.0s?
Not sure but both should work. 1.0.1s is for slim ics and other roms. If it is not compatible it will break 720 video recording & playback otherwise eveything else should work. There is also a video patch somewhere.

Alright..I've flashed AOKP b34 and Semaphore 1.1.0s
Everything seems to be fine
But now my sdcard is mounted as internal storage and the actual internal storage is mounted as sdcard..is this a bug or what ?
Even when I connect my phone to my PC using USB,only the actual internal storage (which is mounted as SDcard shows up..
I personally haven't 1.1.0 only 1.0.1sbm with slim ics. I think the 1.1.0 is still a test version for cm9 but could be wrong. Things may have updated since i last looked but i recommend reading the semaphore thread and posting there for more help.

Known bug in Semaphore. Make sure you enable the 'Netfilter' module in the app. When it randomly doesn't work, which is the bug, simply check and uncheck it 2 times and it will work.

Now, The only problem I'am experiencing is a little more battery drain when compared to GB.
I am gonna experiment with modems..

[Q] Getting my Note tomorrow! A few questions.

Hello lovely XDA users. Just wanted to ask a few questions about the Note. Im used to Nexus devices and the unlocking and rooting process is usually straight forward, reading up on the Note I got a bit confused lol. So how do you root it? I have read about the ICS leaks bricking phones so I will stick to GB for now, can anyone recommend a good GB ROM? Would like stock Android if possible. One more question, apart from rooting how do you get CWM Recovery on it? Thanks for your help people and I'm really looking forward to getting the Note.
There's a thread in the dev section with pre-rooted firmwares. You can flash any of these with PC Odin and you're rooted. I suggest you flash the European Open or UK version of XXLC1.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424997
If you want to get CWM Recovery as well you need to flash the CF-Kernel for the version of the rom you flashed. So if you flashed XXLC1 you need the CF-Kernel for version LC1.
Scroll to the bottom of this post and download the file for the correct version: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=18978158&postcount=1
Extract that file, double click the alread-rooted.bat file and it will push all the necessary files to the Note. Once it's done your phone will reboot and you can use CWM Recovery (hold power+home+volume up untill Samsung logo pops up) to flash any rom you like.

Explained like a pro, Thank you very much. Any GB ROM you would recommend? Preferably with Stock Android although I'm guessing you can't use the S Pen apps? Might stick to Stock Touchwiz ROM although I hate it. Any kernel to recommend with a Stock ROM? Thanks for your help.
All the custom GB roms fully support the s-pen because they're all based on official Samsung firmwares, I'm not aware of any custom rom with stock Android UI at the moment. You can always use a custom launcher to at least get rid of TouchWiz. I'm using CheckRomHD V6 and installed NemusLauncher at the moment and I like it a lot. RocketRom V23 is a very nice rom as well though it's a bit of a hassle to flash as you first need to flash V22, do a wipe and then flash V23.
You can even combine custom roms and custom kernels. If you want to be able to overclock as well you can flash for example CheckRom and then flash the AbyssNote 4.2 or FM Kernel 2.0 in CWM Recovery. Or if you go for speed and good battery life you can flash SpeedMod Kernel 2-11.
Basically it's all up to you. Read the threads about the custom roms, choose a few with features you like and just try them for a while. Just keep in mind that there is a slight chance you end up in a boot loop (usually solved by doing a data/cache/Dalvik wipe in recovery) or soft-bricking and you have to start all over by flashing a pre-rooted kernel and CF-Root again, but this applies to any custom rom on any phone.
You said them firmwares are pre-rooted but on the thread it say's they are not directly rootable. ???

Where is this ROM? Sounds good. Any Kernel you recommend with it or just the standard one that's with it? Can you OC with normal kernel?

Does this mean that you want all the stuff that comes initially with your Note?
If yes, then CM9 probably is not the right thing for you. It is devoid of all the
Samsung crapware, plus you don't get native S-Pen Samsung support. This
means no SMemo and similar stuff; you have to use different apps from the
Market instead.
OTOH, if you want a lean, smooth and fast Rom, and are not afraid to do some
tinkering, then CM9 would be ideal for you.

1. CM9 is here.
2. No optional kernels for now, because it contains the only safe ICS kernel ATM
3. No OC either, but you won't be needing it - the kernel is very fast as it is. In
fact, I keep mine at 1.2Ghz. It feels just as quick, and it's somewhat easier on
the battery.
Ok, I flashed a stock GB ROM through odin and I have run the bat file and installed the CF kernel and CWM. How do I flash CM9 and where do I find Reloaded CM9? Thanks you lovely people

[ROM] Helly Bean [4.1.1] (8/17/12) - Vibrant - DerTeufel1980

Please note! Due to certain issues, as of 08/26 I have moved on to the official CM10. If time permits, I'll update this OP, but not making promises.
WARNING: This ROM probably still has intermittent emergency dialing issues. Do not use it for a daily driver when you're out or could need 911 or any emergency number. If you STILL choose to use it at those times, it's your own fault!
Let's get this out of the way:
This thread is for DEVELOPMENT! If you have non-development questions...which is just about everything that seems to show up anymore.....go to the following thread:

From DerTeufel1980:
I want to present to you the Helly_Bean ROM. The following description is taken from the original thread over in the i9000 section. You can find his thread here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1775169
This ROM is not the official built of CM10 by Teamhacksung.
It is based on their source code, but with some modifications, to allow the use of /datadata partition

Many many thanks, to pawitp, FaultExeption, Jt1134 and all the other people who commit to gerrit. without these, this ROM wouldn't be possible
What's not working or known bugs?
[FIXED]- toggling the GPS repeatedly will reboot phone.
[FIXED]- mounting of external sd to pc (you can switch to mtp mode in recovery to "fix" this).

******************
Build 08/20 is showing as available. I don't recommend dl'ing it as its caused many to have baseband issues. I've contacted Der to look into this, which I'm sure he will when time permits.
(08/17)New build available.
This is md5 sum:
cd703c25d560ce4c3d33cbfcab724427
Changes:
- compiled from latest sources, but still using /datadata (going to be change probably soon)
- renamed the two navbar menus
- added Facebook sync (you have to install Facebook app before)
- added i9000b to supported devices
- (hopefully) fixed modem/baseband issue
- added possibility to install devil kernel apps to installer
- fixed mms for showcase
http://rootaxbox.no-ip.org/derteufel/Helly_Bean/rom/
Wipe not needed if flashing from a previous version, but is highly recommended. Be sure to flash the add-on also.
TF here.....I found, as often is the case, I had to flash the ROM and let it boot up, then go back in and flash the add-on. After that.....golden!
(08/15)New test build up now.
Why test build?
- Because I have added two new devices, for which I don't know if it is working well for them
- I have fixed the navbar not appearing, but now there a two menus in system which both are named the same. One is for enabling, the other for customization. I am working at integrating the two into one menu, but I did not get it yet.
- ffc support for Vibrant
Install process has not changed, but if you are coming from another ROM/kernel than mine, you should create a folder devil at your sdcard, place a file named device into it, and write your device name in it, valid names are:
i9000
cappy
vibrant
fascinate
mesmerize
showcase
users of mesmerize and showcase have to do this!
Other changes:
If devil app(s) are not installed, the menu is not displayed under system settings (many thanks to phillbring for coding me this).
md5sum is: 3b11a106529f10236d2e6139416bc346
http://rootaxbox.no-ip.org/derteufel/test/
Wipe not needed if flashing from a previous version, but is highly recommended. Be sure to flash the add-on also.
From TF: I love the Cid theme from Annex, but flashing his most recent version sent me into bootloops. I'm assuming he will update as soon as he has a chance.
(08/13) New instructions for flashing. Wipe not needed if flashing from a previous version, but is recommended. Be sure to flash the add-on also.
The files can be found at:
http://rootaxbox.no-ip.org/derteufel/Helly_Bean/
Install instructions:[/SIZE]
Coming from any other rom:
- make sure to have gingerbread bootloaders. (Remember, Google is your friend)
- wipe data/factory reset
- flash allinone.zip
- reboot recovery
- flash allinone.zip again
- flash Helly_Bean_AddOn or Helly_Bean inverted AddOn
coming from previous version:
- flash allinone.zip
- flash Helly_Bean_AddOn or Helly_Bean inverted AddOn
Attention: this is still a test. Don't flash it if you don't know what you are doing/how to get back!
For a new feature cherry-picked last night, go to settings --> system
*************************
You can find the official website for this project here (I don't maintain the site myself, if there is anything website related to ask, please use the contact info from the web site):
http://hellybean.site11.com/download.html
You'll find download links and faq on this site.
The usual back-up, complete wipe (if this is the first time flashing this ROM), flashing of files and fix permissions applies.
***********
One thing I noticed is that if you follow the normal flash procedure, it can bootloop, or at least appears as though it is. One way to fix that is to flash the ROM only and boot up you phone. Then go back into recovery and flash the add-on. That has worked every time it happened to me.
You can find the changelog here:
http://hellybean.site11.com/changelogg.html
For mirrors, please take a look at the thread. if you don't find any, just ask in the thread.
I really didn't want to mention this, but lack of experience by some members seems to require it:
If you are unsure of ANYTHING that goes with flashing a ROM, do research first. If you honestly can't find the answer, ask questions. We are not responsible for any action that happens to your phone.
Many thanks to:
- be18
- mkalter, who got the first running JB ROM
- elitemovil (who was the first who got gsm working)
- stratosk (from who's initramfs I could start build my first JB booting kernel)
- teamhacksung/pawitp for the ROM sources
- team nyx who always have good tips for me, if i get problems with my kernel
- SysTem-X for hosting
- Rootax for hosting
- RolluS for hosting
- many thanks also to the other people who have created mirrors

________________________________
Now, from TFordham (you can just call me TF):
I've been using this ROM for some time now, and really happy with it. Personally, I think this is the best JB ROM out there. I find it very smooth, and for an early release, quite stable.
I do want to point out that I'm not a dev at all. The Helly Bean ROM is from DerTeufel1980 and his team. I put this up since his ROM is being mentioned in another ROM forum, but figured it might as well have its own home
Something else I want to be clear about is that I have no technical knowledge on creating ROMs, kernels or other things of this nature. I simply wanted to let other Vibrant owners know this ROM is out there. This fantastic XDA community is the place to ask, as there are plenty who know FAR more than I. In addition, DerTeufel1980 is active in this forum, ago if there are issues, he will help address them. While I appreciate the "thanks" button being hit, it is his comments in this thread that should be thanked.

HellyBean 0801 is definitely the fastest JB ROM for the Vibrant because of the included Devil 1.1.0 kernel and the use of the faster datadata partition. All Vibrant users should donate to Derteufel1980 for his amazing kernel and now ROM support. He is the only ICS/JB kernel developer we have right now so we must treat him right.
How does this differ from the CM10 v8? Other than the kernel of course.

Keeping in mind I'm far from the most tech savvy flasher out there, like I mentioned, I don't see a huge difference in most of the JB ROMs. I just happen to like this one a lot. Others may be able to get into far more detail on why it's good compared to other (or vice versa, for that matter, if they feel that's the case).

There is no link to Devil 1.1.0. I can see a folder, but it is empty. I do see and know that Devil 1.0.4 works.

The kernel is in the ROM...you don't need to flash it separately.

Good to know!! Now, I flashed the ROM, Kernel 1.0.4, and add-ons yesterday. Can I just flash the ROM without wiping?

Again, not a techy. Give it a try, just do a back-up first. I tend to always do a full wipe. Seems like ROMs just run better that way, IMO.

Delete...I misunderstood what you were saying.
I think that DerTeufel has to be the OP.
Did you ask him before put this?
Are you able to answer questions about Kernel, ROM, Modems, UV, NL etc?
Update the proper content of our device?
This is why the "leader team" or the Dev has to be the OP.
Not trolling, just saying: If we want a better Topic it has to be created by DerTeufel.

Thanks for your concern. I've contacted him. If he wants anything changed, or even to have it closed, I'm sure he'll let me know.

How's the battery life on this rom? Im getting amazing battery on CM10 Alpha Preview by FE with Devil 1.0.4 test3 JB kernel. I wanna know if this battery's any good before I switch.
Can someone quickly summarize how to get here from Stock? I had done it a long time ago to the ics roms and can't do it again... I"m missing some major step.
So far:
heimdall to stock
root update.zip
install rommanager and then cwm install and re-boot to flash update.zip -> cwm recovery.
Flash this rom
-> results in boot loop.
What am I missing?

My experience from going all the way back to stock is that I had to flash a Gingerbread ROM first, then wipe that and install a later ROM (ICS, JB).

[Q] Updating firmware will slow mobile?

Hi, I`m completely new to smartphones so bear with me, this is my very first one! :victory:
A brief search did not yield any answer, plus I think such an amateurish question would never be asked here.
I`m thinking that a newer firmware will have more features, fixes etc... and will mean more stuff for the CPU to deal with.
If i update my firmware to the latest firmware that is possible for my mobile, will it slow down my mobile?
No, JB or ICS are significantly smoother than GB and have more features. Its like saying Windows 95 is faster than Windows 7 because Windows 7 has more features.

Is there any particular way/method/version... anything that you would suggest when updating my firmware?...
I`m feeling a bit overwhelmed with all this stuff, that`s why I`m asking.

There are loads of tutorials. Long story short, when you're on GB, you root your phone (flash CF root via Odin), and from there its as simple as downloading a zip file and flashing it in recovery if you want ICS or JB. If you run into any problems, I'll help, but i won't spoonfeed you information which is freely available.

The link you have on your website to odin and the download link i found on this forum both have the file unavailable.
I downloaded Odin3-v1.85 from an alternative location from this website. I`m assuming it will still work.... right?
I also found this MobileODINLite-v3.57.apk, what is the difference between the 2 versions of Odin? and which is 'better'?

Don't use mobile odin.
Once you've found the root kernel for your system, flash it in Odin.
What system ( android version, be specific) do you have?

You'll upgrade to 2.3.6 then root it, after you do it you'll see how easy it was
Edit: corrected the link
Regarding the exynos exploit, it only affects phones with the exynos processor, the i9000 uses a different one so its not affected
