Hi all,
So, I finally got the ICS update via Kies (not OTA, through USB) 3 days ago. Since then, my internet speeds seem to have tanked I did the factory reset twice, and tried both APN settings, the one that came with ST and the one that has been posted here (one for internet and one for MMS). Prior to the update, I could easily get 4-6mb down and 1.5mb up; now it's hardly 1-2mb down and not even 1mb up. Did I screw something up?
BTW, I'm running stock, unrooted, ICS 4.0.3
Baseboard: N7000XXLPT
Kernel: 3.0.15-N7000XXLQ2-CL605927
Build: IML74K.XXLQ2
Has anybody else experienced the same thing? Any help is greatly appreciated!
Help a noob, please
Hi, I'm a beginner also.
Does anyone know if I have to revert back to stock GB before I connect to Kies for the ICS update?
Most importantly, can I revert back to Stock GB if I don't like this update? (I would PC Odin Stock GB ROM, zergrush for root).
Sorry I couldn't answer the question above, but I would gladly try out the ICS update if my above two questions can be answered. I just want to be safe before I proceeded.
I was on ICS for a brief moment and reverted because of well documented bricking risk. My guess is your apn's where off a bit, or maybe the modem needs to be switched.
But thats the least of your worries. Because you did a reset you may have damaged your eMMC .... that's the bug.
For now you need to get a safe kernel on there.
1. root your ICS
2. mobile odin a SAFE kernel
DO NOT WIPE AGAIN until....

Thank you, akenis. I've never done the rooting b4, but I guess it's a first for everything! What's a safe kernel?

Franco r4 and above. Speedmod as well. The cm9 based ones are safe, but won't work with your version of ICS.

Wow, I'm really shocked. This is ICS Update over Kies from Samsung. Not a leaked ICS ROM he got from a friend.
I am in disbelief that Samsung would allow us to receive this bug over their official Kies method.
Is this verified? The ICS that Samsung gives over Kies also has the eMMC bug?
---
Sorry, just did a quick XDA search, I couldn't find a definitive answer that the ICS Update via Kies from Samsung has eMMC bug. But they're all saying STOCK or Custom ICS ROM, DO NOT WIPE OR FACTORY RESET.
---
Just did a more extensive eMMC search. From this post I found this note.
All ICS official releases for the Samsung Galaxy Note (GT-N7000) as of late May 2012 - This includes XXLPY, ZSLPF, and DXLP9, and future kernels should be assumed affected until further notice.
To my understanding is, Samsung is shipping out updates that will brick your phone. WTF?!?!
---
Find another post regarding DO NOT WIPE
Please do NOT use Wipe Data/Factory Reset. It is the main difference between first and 2nd round of testing and is the current suspect
My newest issue seems to be unable to send a text message now! WTF? I would have dealt with slower data until I figured out how to go about fixing my damaged eMMC (if it's damaged, that is). Good grief!

Did you tried an hard-reset or factory wipe ? this should fix things but you will loose settings, apps and other data.
how to root SGS after upgrade?? nw I hv 3e recovery instead of 2e recovery , Can someone post a tutorial or steps how to root and also which is the best lag fix for 2.2 need one asap as the phones lags too much almost unusable!!
How is the browser with flash set to on demand?
Does it lag like xwjp6?
I thought they would base it off xwJPA.
xwJP6 is very unstable...
@gkg, you can search for recovery 2e in the development section and get it done from there.

DOWNLOAD VERSION 1.3 here
Steps to install
1. Download rom and put on the root of your sdcard
2. Select ROM in Rom manager
3. Select wipe data, cache, dalvik
4. PROFFIT!!!!!
No need to odin back to stock before flashing this and GB bootloaders aren't required
if the glitch kernel freaks out on you... you may need a different leakage version. Source code and updates for glitch kernel, can be found in the following thread ------->http://bit.ly/pNkURn
CHANGELOG:
v1.3- Initial release and port from samsung vibrant, relatively untested
Seems interesting...i'll try it out tonight.
As shall I... I doubt many people here will get the KingKlick reference lol (I'm from way back... G1 days). Great to see you deving for Captivate, biff.
you guys are officially testers. Please let me know any bugs or issues you have. Cappy and Vibrant are basically the same so i think i pulled it off proper, but since i don't have the device, its not possible to know. Once you all confirm its as stable as it should in theory be, i'll push to rom manager and start doing biweekly updates.
Sounds good. I won't be using Glitch though, I'm currently testing a kernel of my own (in my sig). TK-Glitch was the dev of Gitch kernel btw
I will give a try also this night!
So I can flash this with gb bootloader and Samsung rom without the need to go back to froyo stock?
Thanks in advance

That's what the OP says. If you have issues, then they're most likely caused by your GB bootloaders. Give it a try, worst that can happen is that you have to go stock. (disclaimer: worse can happen if you really, really, really screw up and I'm not responsible)
+1. I have jvp installed. With gb bootloaders. Do I have to-
1. flash to stock eclair
2. flash to stock gb
3. just wipe and flash?

P.s I have never flashed cm or aosp before, so I have just the very basic idea of aosp. Only thing I know is that battery was pretty bad on cm7 due to the phone not being able to get to the deep sleep mode. Could someone please tell me how is it on this?

Sure thing. The ROM's been great so far, no issues except for a soft reboot, then when it booted it hard rebooted. Just a one time thing, and I've used the phone plenty since then, so I don't think it's anything to worry about.

Me too. Let me know though.
I got this earlier and it failed on install. Like has been said at 26.2MB I seriously doubt it's ICS.
Tab restarted and it showed the android icon. A status bar went like a quarter of the way until it showed the android with an exclamation point and froze. I freaked out and held power to shut it down. It booted to cwm and I restarted.
Not sure if it even completed the update at all.

Damn. I just got that message too and said "go" because I have root with backup (ota rootkeeper) and CWM so I thought let's see but all it did was reboot *into CWM!!* and gave me some error, checksum mismatch or whatever. Rebooted and all is still untouched "old" version.
Now system/about says no update available. How can I manually install this? I think it's a new modem and hope it is and that it will finally fix the horrid 4G reception issues. My Droid Razr gets SOOO much better signal in the same area.
Does anyone by chance have a clean, fresh stock install plus this update and can pull me a CWM nandroid backup ?

Will I lose root?
Has anyone tested whether we will lose root by upgrading? And if so does the root.zip work to get it back?
Given what's at stake (IPv6 functionality), I don't think I care whether I do it or not, I just want it to stop asking me.

Yes I lost root but re-rooted with .zip just fine
I applied this OTA last night. Since then, I'm seeing much poorer data speeds: Previously had pretty solid LTE speeds, now I'm lucky to exceed 500-1000kbps down.
Does anyone know if the previous i815 ROM / previous radio file is available online to flash via desktop Odin? (I've searched but didn't find anything but a nandroid file -- I'm not rooted, so don't have CWM.)
Whether eMMc bug could be invoked in the new Android 4.0.4. If the answer is either : yes or no : The fact shall be announced loud and clear. It is also strange that some experts? and even samsung saying no such bug exists, even offerng 100$ if proved (read in general section post).Users shall sigh in relief, if the bug is eliminated.
For that 100$ offer, moderatoe have to post this

I don't think the application by chainfire checks whether the kernel has the bug. It checks if your eMMC chip is known to have the bug. Someone more knowledgeable correct me if I'm wrong.
The app only checks whether your processor chip or whatever is known to brick devices during a factory reset/data wipe, which has always been a problem even in Gingerbread days. It is a hardware fault, but triggered by certain kernels. If Samsung were to edit/change the kernel, then it would be fine.
Here is evidence new.ROM having brick bug

The ICS Kernel up to 4.03 trigger the bug in the processor firmware on wiping data in CWM Recovery. So you clearly right, that the GOTBRICKBUG from Chainfire can not show if a new phone firmware/Kernel will make problems, it can only show if your phone has an affected type of processor.
if 4.04 is save is still under discussion. Maybe someone in China/ Singapore knows more, where it´s released first.
Evidence # 2 of brickbug presence in 4.0.4 on facebook

what a pitty
thank´s Dr. Ketan! :good:
I was about thinking to try the new 4.04 German version.
What a pitty, can´t believe what the guys at Samsung are doing. How can they release a new firmware and don´t correct this well known brick bug?!?
Well, so much for my hope of a fix. Looks like I won't bother updating from 4.0.3 and, if anything, flash another kernel on.
Samsung must pull their finger out & sort out this problem quickly. The Note 2 is probably going to be released in August. Owners are not going to upgrade if this is the sort of treatment they get.
It wont.stop here
3rd incidence in last few hrs

Ohhkeyyy...so...stupid question, probably...
I want to give my dad my Note and he asked that I return it to stock. I'm running Cyanogen Mod 9 right now, latest Nightly.
I'm going to revert with PC Odin to some old stock, not-rooted GB version, like KKA and then let Kies update it to the latest version available for my area.
Does the emmc bug also imply that my dad can't do factory resets either (I imagine so, since they involve a full-wipe...).
I know this is a bit of a lame question, but since using Cyanogen I've stayed away from the whole Samsung ICS mess and haven't really looked into it.
Yes even on full stock ics updated with odin/kies/ota will have emmc brick bug. But if you dont use wipe/reset then it hav no problem. Better keep on latwst GB ROM if you want reset function usable.

Thanks for the quick reply Dr. Ketan. I...can't really recall how many times you've helped me with my Note since I got it...
Wow...bummer. You'd think Samsung would fix such a FORKIN MAJOR bug in their devices after...how many months since ICS is out? Aren't...they the least bit ashamed that CM did a better job than them in a shorter time-span and with lesser resources? (obviously they're not a billion-dollar winning phone and software making company)
