Wohoo!! so long not coming here... didnt know V7 d hahahaha

btw havent root my note yet... no friends using the same android so kinda a bit reluctant to do it hahaha need to do some more reading and stuff

Hello... have some question here. Im still new in the rooting thingy and i know this may look like a lame question for the experts in here but i have no one else to ask lor... been reading and watching videos on steps to root sgnote... alot!

Currently my note has not yet rooted and in my case, ive updated my note to latest software 2.3.6 @ LA1 and found out its non-rooted. So now im dowloading the previous version 2.3.5 @ KK1 to downgrade my note. Am i in the right direction?

fyi, i just want to root my phone. As for the Clockworm thingy... hvnt had any clue what its for lol(i blame my lack of reading more:p) but i guess it had something to do with some advance recovery. I just hope that after i root my note, the titanium backup will be just enough... or am i wrong?

back to the main question, im following a guide from this website http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1329360

and downloaded zergrushexploit

edit: so... anything i need to do next? or did i miss something?

thx in advance

thx!

Hello... great new for me i just succeeded rooting my note LOL

followed benny's blog(which is really helpful)

Now im currently installing mobile odin to flash 2.3.6. found out need to pay for the mobile odin in market(solved it by downloaded apk)

so to update my note to the latest firmware 2.3.6 i just need to download the kernel LA1 right? and using the mobile odin to upload the file? kinda lost with benny's last guide there... launching mobile odin... care to elaborate more anyone?


optional: when i rooted my note, its now running 2.3.5 KJ3 firmware kernel KK1. is it possible if i just updated it through usual samsung software update? or the root will be wipe out?

yeah ive noticed in CWM also can flash but not fully as Mobile Odin. btw ive look around in xda. there is xxLA6 but cant find the malaysian carrier. most of it from other country... anybody have any link to share? abit blur here @.@ still new in this rooting fyi

O.o didnt know that! well i certainly do that now!. thx!

Hey guys, just upgraded my note to LA6 via Mobile Odin.. loving it lol

just wanna share this video... i think its by far the best note case to have. its from korea and im still figuring out how/where to buy this @.@

yeah was kinda hoping someone in here willing to organise too... ima try to contact the seller via mail and see how 1st

btw... i read some ppl comment mentioned the case doesnt have the sound hole at the back... probably some kind of flaw.... but overall its awesome ^.^

got the same problem when i flash to LA6 russia via mobil odin
suddenly when i type on my keyboard all came out as 'null'

what i did is i use CWM and Flash Stock ROM using the same LA6 russia and the problem solved.
While flashing via CWM i noticed still CSC unable to access \system\csc\XME\system

on my understanding is CSC mean its a country specific settings network details etc
so i bet if u flash to LA1 (malaysia) this problem wont happen.

edit:just my opinion... still new too:)

yeah i used CF-Root Kernel LA6. just make sure u have the stock rom .tar file saved in sd/firmware/

after i flash the LA6 with CWM so far phone works well. All i know is when u flash a different country's carrier, CSC wont be available to access because CSC contains the software packages to a specific region, carrier branding and also APN settings for data connection, MMS etc for your service provider.

Im using Mobile Odin Pro v2.10.

Well most in the forums favor M.O to flash their phone. Thats why i used it in the 1st place. But the only problem i encounter was the 'null' error with typing. All i did is using CWM to flash stock rom using the same LA6 keeping the CF-Roof Kernel and it all went well.

As for the CSC problem, most of this problem appear when u flashed a stock rom. There is a solution for that but its very tricky. found this while surfing

In case you flashed a non multi-csc ROM and now are missing your CSC you can do this:
1. Get hold of an old ROM update package. Open it up and browse to /system/csc
2. Copy your regional CSC folder(for malaysia's its either CCM, FME, FMG, MXS, XME) from that archive to your phone SD card.
3. Dive into a root explorer on the phone (make sure 'system' is mounted as writable) and copy the folder you have in Step-2 to your phone's /system/csc
4. Dial *#272*{your imei number goes here}# and install your CSC.


old ROM update package meaning its our country's carrier exm: LA1 (Malaysia)

In my opinion, when u get the 'cant access system/cs' error, it mean the csc version is not compatible with the country's carrier. Just make sure u made a backup and read more in xda website

edit: btw mine is XME

currently downloading ^.^ thx for your review

Just finished upgrading to ICS via Mobile Odin. Followed benny's blog. (very helpful)

Have not test anything yet. Now restoring my backup via Titanium Backup... gonna take a while @.@

im currently using the ICS REPACK and now downloading the ICS v4.0.3 BETA

went through the xda thread and learn something bout the new ICS BETA.

As benny's said. S Pen and S Memo not working very well. S Pen cannot funtion as screenshots, S Memo is within the Samsung apps which the developer removed some of the samsung apps in the rom(i guess...need to read more @.@)

as for the ROOT, yeah will lost root access but found a post saying can get back rooting access by installing Superuser
and busybox after that reboot device.

So far many review in the thread saying the although ICS BETA has too many bugs, it is much faster than ICS REPACK. Cant be sure bout this cause i havent flash it my self.

All i can say is ICS REPACK solved my note's hanging issue and performance is really amazing. No heat problem even when i put my note beside my bed lol. Just the battery consumption is really-really high... eat up my battery juice alot and fast @.@

edit: Gonna wait for more review on the ICS BETA before flashing it.
