Can any expert help me about my note!!

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.
B.R

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.

hi first thx 4 your anwser ,but i dont have problem about flashing etc im not a new bie (im also moderator on gsm hosting) just show me steps ang give me the best files for my device

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

[Q] What order to upgrade, root, recovery ...

Hello ..
I am getting my Grand 2 today.
I am familiar with flashing, rooting, backing up, etc ..
I have done this all before with my Galaxy S3 ..
but, its been awhile ..
so, I have a few questions about the order in which to do things.
Here is to order I am planning on doing things .. is this correct?
I think my Grand 2 will have Android 4.3 out of the box. so ..
1st ... I will upgrade to 4.4 via Kies
2nd ... I will root using Odin .. and the CF method
3rd ... I will load SuperUser and BusyBox from the Play store
4rth ... I will flash CWM
(can I just get this from Play store? I have purchased the touch recovery previously and am used to the layout)
5th ... I will back up the Stock 4.4 Rom ..
and that's it ..
Is this the correct order to do things?
Should I make a recovery using the Stock Recovery before I root?
Or should I (can I) download CWM from the Play store and then make a recovery image? ..
Thank You for your help ..
I know all this is covered in various threads through out this forum ..
and I have read/bookmarked them all .. but, want to just verify that I am on the right track
THANK YOU

Before everything Have the firmware downloaded ! If u have the firmware in ur hands and if u know how to flash it then u don't need to worry abt anything and unlike s3 grand 2 doesn't have Flash counters

First of all as Sanjuujosephh said you should download a firmware and then if you are rooting with CF root then there is no need to download supersu from play store . You can't get CWM from play store coz it is not available officially here's a link to unofficial CWM

No this only works for phones which have official CWM recovery our phone doesn't have any ...and again i recommend downloading a firmware if you live in india then here's the link to latest firmware
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-grand-2/general/stock-firmware-grand-2-google-drive-t2849501
And if you don't then you can request your firmware here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-grand-2/general/request-firmware-t2884198
Edit :- these are links for resumable download you can download them from www.sammobile.com

I did not know about the "official/unofficial" CWM issue.
Many people recommend Philz Recovery instead ..
can anyone point me in the right direction for the correct zip for Philz?
I found a link for Philz recovery for 4.3 ...
would that work for 4.4?
My country is not listed on the SamMobile site ..
I am off to get the phone now ..
I will check the PDA and CSC versions when I get the phone . .
hopefully I will find a match ..
also .. I see some of the versions are listed .. 4.2.2, 4.4.2, 4.4.4 ... etc ..
I am assuming I will need to use the correct version as well ?
...

Unfortunately I don't know about philz recovery coz i haven't used it personally but if you want then..Here's the link
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=53747111&postcount=3
And the latest version is 4.4.2 and build NH6 (in INDIA ) i can't tell about your country bcoz you still haven't mentioned it...

On the CF root files I see different versions NH1, NG4, NH6 ...

Thanks

bro first of all relax and download any custom rom and flash it via recovery say cynogenmod etc..then let it start and check whether you can connect to network if its fine then your hardware is perfectly safe and goahead with flashing the stock rom you downloaded (consider redownloading it to be sure) and flash it and you would be fine

because installing a custom rom by fully formatting phone will delete any corrupted files that are causing the error and when you will flash the official rom it will intsall as a new clean rom and will work without any problem

I do not think I missed the point. Your original post only mentions KK but not LP which is why I suggested LP. The last line of your original post even states the ROM in use on the phone.

No worries. Thank you for clarifying the situation. Your English is fine.
I don't know which version of Odin you are using but I always use Odin 3.07 because I have never had a problem with 3.07.
Do you have a pit file for your phone? Flashing the pit file with the stock ROM in Odin might solve the problem.

This is coz KNOX blocked the wifi access.
SOLUTION:
1. Flash via ODIN the latest android 4.4.2 version to your device: THIS ONE.
2. Root it via ODIN with CF-Autoroot.
3. Using Root Explorer (for example) delete all the KNOX entries: GUIDE.
4. Reboot your device. You should have wifi now. Install TRIANGLE AWAY and reset your flash counter to complete the job. Done.

You mentioned that you tried kies in your post but Kies didn't support your phone. It could be that the updated ROM is supported in Samsung's smart switch.

Custom rom !!!

Hello everyone
I have bricked my Note 3
and successfully recovered it from a guide on this site which install this build N9005XXUENA6
the problem is The guide said To download a Custom rom like SWEETROM v7 Or echoeRom v7 which works on NA6!!
sadly all the links are expired !
please if u can suggest another ROM or give me another link for these Roms it will be appreciated !:angel:

You bricked your phone and have recovered it .
Then i would say leave it as it is .
My guess is you used a very old guide that points to very old roms .

Factory reset but really you need to start reading the faqs and guides .
Check bootloader in your roms faqs .

The Boot Loader is from 4.4.2 Leaked NA6 based rom
from this guide

if anyone can give SweetRom v7 NA6 please

If you hvae a old 4.4.2 bootloader and did not read the UPDATE THE BOOTLOADER section in the manuals..... then you really should listen to @Proton Pig. Installing a Custom ROM is not a easy and secure thing to do and if you have problems in understanding manuals regarding that then you should keep the official ROM. If the phone is dead then install Samsung Kies and start the phone in d/l mode to make it fix it for ya. With some luck you even get a newer MODEM AND BL by doing so. (I never ever did use Kies btw, so I might be wrong here, this is my 3rd Android phone + some work based tech skillz made me ignore the customer stuff and do my own thing)
