hi [email protected]!!
i have N7000 default firmware version is N7000UBKK1 İTS 2.3.6 i want to upgrade it to ICS but when i try with kies it says ur device not support update via kies.so can anybody advice me step by step how can i upgrade my set without any problem.(also ics version have to contain turkish language)
thx in advance..

Just use Odin dude, there may not be an official update to ICS for your region yet.
But you can use Odin to update your device using one of the ROMs from other regions. Just depends on whether they have your language or not included in the ROM.
Also I'd aside you use a custom kernel, you will have to use an app called triangle away afterwards but it's safer than using the current official kernels that could potentially brick your device.

but 1 month ago i face the same problem on a galaxy s2 i try it with odin flashing was well but after i test the phone i see some problems like not detecting sim card , some menus missing , also no restart menu when hold power button.also im afraid about when i downgrade the s2 back to 2.3.6 it doesnt work too well some times shut down automaticlly after this progress.so i need the best ways to upgrade my note without any problem.

I suggest you leave it as it is for now ,for two reasons:
1.flashing is normally dangerous and could brick your phone ,you need to read and learn your way around a safe flash .
2.stock ICS for the note is buggy and could brick your phone if you preform a wipe/factory reset on it ,this would mean that you need a safe custom kernel to render it safely ,thus making the operation that much more difficult for you to do.

I assumed from your post count ,and your way of asking that you are a noob, sorry if I'm mistaken.
anyway if you want to flash ICS ,then I suggest :
1.flash cm9 as it is safe and fully functional (aside from sammy apps)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1627854
2.flash a stock ICS ROM using mobile odin ,and replacing the kernel with either Franco r6 ,or Speedmod
these two kernels are assumed safe ,so you should have no problems.
good luck

I want to root + ICS

I purchased a galaxy s i9000 on ebay, it is currently running 2.2.1. I would like to root it and put an ICS rom on it. could sombody point me in the right direction, i keep finding small guides but they just take me to boot loops!
Currently running GT_I9000_XWJSD_XXJPY_OXXJS6 if that means anything lol.

i suggest u to use odin to go in stock rom and kernel again....see doky73 thread for information on how to go to stock rom and kernel....i am sure this will surely solve ure prob....

Your problem is that the nandroid backup wasn't from your phone I assume that's what you mean by "another backup" if you flash a stock rom that isn't native the region where you live your going to have connectivity problems check this thread here on flashing stock rom using odin
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1465800
Also in that tread you'll see he has different rom for particular regions make sure you take the one native to where you live then flash it with Odin and your problem will be solved

[Q] Stock Rom without PC???

can anyone access me to a thread where i can find stock rom for my galaxy y without pc..

you cant flash stock rom firmware without a pc effectivly - There is a thread but I believe the process has bugs like imei so I wouldnt recommend it
You can flash a "Stock rom" via cwm but it wont be the same as flashing it via odin - think of it as flashing a custom rom with no modifications - It wont convert your system back to rfs or change your baseband for example

SM-N9005 Downgrade 4.4.2 to 4.3

Hi guys, I have been searching everywhere in order to know how to downgrade from 4.4.2 back to 4.3.
However,all posts were telling that once we have updated to 4.4.2....there is no way on downgrading.
So,even the Samsung center can't help me to downgrade too?
Because Im thinking to go over Samsung center to downgrade if they can really do so.

you have a big risk to brick your phone
I read somewhere that someone do it but everywhere it's recommand and it said that after upgrade to KK, no way back

Won't happen. The only way to downgrade a snapdragon based note 3 is to replace the mainboard with one that has not yet seen kitkat.

hell...i juz received the 4.4.2 update and start facing so many issues especially the sd card file permission..
It did hav solution but require root..so i thaught maybe reverting to previous version will do..
But now, my note 3 is hopeless and wondering if samsung will release a fix for this ;-(

Well, It can happen now. It may be a little too late for many who might have moved on to newr phone by now. But as a new n9005 owner I struggled hard to downgrade to 4.3 without any issues. So by trial and error I managed to do it taking cues from the original post in another thread. My reason for the downgrade was better battery life. But that did not happen after downgrade. AT least not in a significant way.. Anyway here's my strategy in summary for those who want to downgarde to 43 with no issues. It worked for me. IMEI ok, video recording ok. But I give no guarantee for others. I am not allowed to provide links so will just provide enough clues to loacte them.
Here's what I did:
Again to remind use this is to downgrade N9005 FROM 4.4.2 TO 4.3
The starting point is 4.4.2 rom version N9005XXUGNG1. I had N9005XXUGNG1_VFGGNH1 if you have Android 5.0 first downgrade to this
1. Do A Wipe Data Factory Reset and cache partition
2. Odin: Flash In AP the file "COMBINATION_FA43_N9005XXUGNH1_N9005OXAGNH1_267031 2_REV00_user_mid_noship_MULTI_CERT.tar.md5."
3. Odin: Flash In AP a JB compatible cwm/twrp (look up in this forum) recovery for N9005
5. Boot into Recovery and do a Data/Cache/Dalvik wipe
6. Install in recovery Omega Rom 4.0 for N9005 JB 4.3 (N9005_Omega_v4.0_XXUDMJ7_md5_A7256B2A7F2E7005A65A 6E1CA5EA77C9.zip
7. Done! you will be running a fully working Jelly Bean 4.3 ROM!
Search google for the download links for the required files in 2 and 6. I got them form google search

Thanks InSenex! Would it be possible to flash a _stock_ 4.3.x ROM after the procedure described by you? Omega is a custom ROM, or am I mistaken?

Omega is custom rom.

Its a stock based touchwiz custom rom. Its tweaked stock rom. Its not a custom rom like cm, aosp, aokp etc. Those wishing to desperately downgrde to 4.3 probably would not care about tweaked stock rom or original stock rom

Omega is STOCK based touchwiz tweaked rom. I believe you can make it a pure stock rom by stripping off all the optmizations/tweaking done to it, replacing deleted stocke files from an extracted stock rom, or flash a cwm/twrp flashable jelly bean stock rom (Not sure if it exists, but there are guides on how to make a flashable stock rom)

Original question answered correctly .
<Omega is a custom ROM, or am I mistaken? >
Its a custom rom .
Based on Samsung firmware yes .
Thats why its in Android Development section .
