[Q] N7000DXLA1_N7000OLBKL2_XME - Kernel (Malaysia)

Dear Chainfire,
Can you help to make CF-Root for this N7000DXLA1_N7000OLBKL2_XME - Kernel that can update from CWM?

Please go to CF-Root thread and download the firmware to revert to older rom plus root. Then
1) buy Chainfire's Odin Mobile and use it to flash N7000DXLA1_N7000OLBKL2_XME.
or
2) flash any custom ROM via CWM recovery.

I just PM to him.....hope he will reply my PM!

No feedback at all from Chainfire.......

Just update to this latest version.
Lighting fast and solves the problem of hanging and inability to read the apps in Ext SD. So fast has not experience that problem yet - touch wood.
Has a few Launcher Installed (ADW, 360, & Go Launchers) all working well.
Still has the original Tw Launcher but hardly it now.
Quite happy with the stock rom now. Has no intention to root it, yet.
Will continue to wait for updates from Samsung and hope ICS will come along soon.

Hi mate
Can you get into recovery mode to flash another rom ? If not follow one of the rooting guilds in the android dev forums. I had loads of trouble rooting my note and getting everything to work. Don't worry I was in your situation and you can get out of it just have a look at all the rooting guides. In the end from what I remember I flashed via PC Odin a stock pre rooted version of ICS think it was the nordic version i then flashed the rom I wanted through recovery CWM
Hope this helps

Abyssnote is for GB, thats why u cant boot back into ICS. Suggest PC Odin and flash Stock ROM from here :- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424997 (try different ones of WIFI no-good) plus follow rooting instructions contained therein. If tar file, use Odin, if zip, use Abyss (Just reboot straight back into it)
PS: Dont flash or wipe on stock ICS or CF-Root- ICS Kernels.

Relax man. What is this aggression for?
-----
@op AbyssNote is for Gingerbread.
Use only ICS kernels on ICS not even CM9.
Flash stock ICS rom. Root it then flash SpeedMod or NoteCore kernel using HC K-Tool.

id suggest he revert back to stock rom and read a lot before doing any stunts with his phone.

Don't panic. Flash any ics kernel such as franco r6 or speedmod k3-6 by using "PC ODIN", then you will be fine.
Bear in mind, if u use pc odin to flash kernel u will get binary count increase and yellow triangle. But don't worry, you can use "move triangle" to reset the binary count to zero and remove the triangle.
Good luck.

Good to know. Could you please provide step-by-step detail. I have JB 4.1.2 XXLSJ installed on the GT-I9100. I tried ODIN v1.85 and 3.04 but it does not take the Philz CWM 3.1 zip file. It looks for tar, smd, md5, gz, tgz. What steps do I need to take to make this file work with ODIN?

Is it possible to unroot this firmware? I have Philz Kernel installed. Reason for wanting unroot is I want to use the Pingit app which requires an unrooted phone. I plan to re root after using it.

You don't have to do it that way, instead you can use temporary clockworkmod and install superuser from there. You can finish rooting in less than 5-10 mins this way.

Root XWLSK
You can use Siyah Kernel "‘Siyah-s2-v6.0b5.tar‘ for rooting your Galaxy S2 I9100 on XWLSK Android 4.1.2 firmware update. Simply flash the same using ODIN.
If the phone goes into a loop, go to recovery mode and do a wipe cache. It should fix the issue.
I have used mobile ODIN app to select the file "I9100XWLSK" and then for kernel "Siyah-s2-v6.0b5.tar" with options wipe checked.
Also, checked the USB Debugging option and then clicked on Flash.

Attached is CWM SU zip. Download and copy to your external sd card>Power Off phone>Press the Volume up+Home+Power key>Choose the option to apply upgrade from external storage>Choose the zip>Select "Yes">Reboot your phone.
This will root your phone and install Super SU. There is no cf root kernel and in most probability there will not be one. Understand that your device is ~2 years old, the world has moved on to better devices...

I can't flash the CWM SU zip in the recovery mode because there is no CWM installed after flashing the XWLSK Official ROM. Now what to do?
EDIT: Ok. So I used my brains and first flashed Siyah Kernel "‘Siyah-s2-v6.0b5.tar‘ for rooting after getting the XWLSK on my phone. does not work on its own and the phone goes into a boot loop. But it does install the CWM so I can flash your CWM SU Zip file from the recovery mode. I reboot. BUT STILL THE PHONE Is GOING IN a BOOT LOOP. Can someone give me something that WORKS on the XWLSK???? So far NOTHING HAS WORKED TO ROOT XWLSK. Should I get rid of this XWLSK rom and get XWLSN????? Pls advice ONLY if you KNOW
Understand that your device is ~2 years old, the world has moved on to better devices..
This is no valid reason for things not to work on the SGS II. The SGS II was the BEST phone available at the time I bought it nearly two years ago. I bought it on the first day it landed in India.

How in the world do you know that this ROM is buggy?? Did they use a special process to induce bugs, something that did not happen with the "European ones"?:cyclops:

I'm saying this because of my past experience with Indian roms . They always had few bugs the 4.0.3 update had many bugs . ALso the battery life is not as good as we get in european firmwares

You can use Siyah Kernel "‘Siyah-s2-v6.0b5.tar‘ for rooting your Galaxy S2 I9100 on XWLSK Android 4.1.2 firmware update. Simply flash the same using ODIN.
If the phone goes into a loop, go to recovery mode and do a wipe cache. It should fix the issue.
I have used mobile ODIN app to select the file "I9100XWLSK" and then for kernel "Siyah-s2-v6.0b5.tar" with options wipe checked.
Also, checked the USB Debugging option and then clicked on Flash.
Sent from my GT-I9100.

Thanks mate, I was finally able to get root using the Siyah-s2-v6.0b5.tar. I figured that an App called LBE Privacy guard was interfering with it and I uninstalled it. After that your Siyah-s2-v6.0b5.tar has worked. :good:
