i got a problem, anyone can help ? i flash the prerooted germany ICS rom according to benny's way.
The problem now is that everything went smoothly, till when the setup page is loaded my keyboard characters is NULL.

any solution ?

yep i did, i even boot to recovery and do a factory reset plus wipe cache. still the same

non rooted.

i did a search on NULL onthis thread, the replies were all no solution, sigh.

i actually flash it via PC Odin. thanks anyway

thanks for the heads up. will wait for the dusk to settle first then.

uncle benny i have a few questions if you dont mind. I am on ICS german non rooted firmware.

I was from GB non rooted.

I tried flashing it with pre rooted as per your site using PC Odin. and followed all the instructions, everything was ok , just that the keyboard character is null. I tried going into recovery several times, clear the setting and cache. the results is the same.

How can i root my current firmware now please and i can't install mobile odin pro as its not rooted.

ypur guidance is much needed.

btw, u be at hall 1 gomobile ? i am with the appcity msc ICON2

the SU is there. the problem is the keyboard is NULL .

finally, installed the PreRooted German ICS. Here is how it went:- (Mine was non rooted ICS Official German)

1. Read throughly over Benny's site.
2. Shut Down the Pohne. Boot to stock recovery mode and select wipe data/factory reset and wipe cache partition.
3. Restart from Recovery (Took longer then expected)
4. Boot into Download Mode
5. Launch PC Odin, follow the steps as descvribe by Uncle Benny.
6. Voila ! , installation was smooth.
7. Booting Up got stuck quaterly (exactly as per Uncle's benny descrption (http://leemn.wordpress.com/2012/05/11/flashing-pre-rooted-ics-official-rom-german-build-on-galaxy-note-n7000/)
8. Follow the method, pull the battery and restart the phone.
9. Installation continues, it the bar moves to the end.
10. Samsung logo appears (a way bit longer then usual), then installation apps begins
11. Tested the keyboard (previously stuck at keyboard character NULL). Perfect !
12. Test SU and Root Check. ROOTED !

All i can say is just follow uncle's benny's method and most importanly DONT PaNIC ! some processes does takes longer, way longer.

yep just don't panic.

how can i install CWM on pre rooted ICS German...?

Got a question on cwm. I have flash pre rooted firmware ics German . Now left with flashing the kernels. I am new to mobile Odin . I have unzip the official ics kernel to zimage.
Now in order to flash cwm. I have to click n kernel and point to the zimage location. Is that the nay file required ? Or I need to point the pre rooted firmware at open file ? What else is needed ?

Thanks in advance

Yep I did that select kernel and point to the image file. Need I select open file and point to the prerooted rom ?

sorry uncle benny, iw as reading the XDA forum and i might got it wrongly. once again my appology... i did folow your steps and i did not get CWM app on it, hence thats where the Q started.

no offence.

Noted

Uncle benny. I manually boot into recovery after reading yr post and cwm was loaded.

Tq for ya patience and time. My appology if it upset you.

Btw are u an app developer?
