[Q] GT-N7000 LB1 needs help in getting rooted

I like to get rooted, but my Samsung Note got LB1 already and therefore patched against zergRush and psneuter.
Been trying this already without success:
DooMLoRD_v4_ROOT-zergRush-busybox-su
SuperOneClick 2.3.3
Also played with Mobile ODIN 3 v1.85 (Desktop version), but got stuck at "SetupConnection", i guess they filled that hole too with a fix.
Or maybe the "new" recovery mode needs some clicking?
Did try on a Win7 x64, installed Kies, run phone in normal way one time, then shutdown Kies, and started in "Android System Recovery <3e>" and used ODIN.
Same thing with a WinXP, i even tried to move Kies programfolder and reboot, then try again, no success.
Believe me, i booted so much times that Win (and phone) soon thinks im using a reboot-batch.
So i spent alot of time looking into this forum, and also other forums about this.
All i can say: I have no clue, hope someone smarter then me can point me in the right direction.
~~~~~~
Im looking at Cassie's XtraLiteRom, but i cant figure out howto get rooted, anyone got a clue?
If i know howto downgrade, then my problem is getting on the way of beeing resolved.
Please dont just say: downgrade, get root, then use Mobile ODIN Pro with EverRoot.
(That is my plans, but how? lol)

No, they didnt fix that ****.
It was a n00b mistake:
I did press "Home+Vol UP+Power" and did get into "Android System Recovery <3e>"
Odin cant connect to that and just waits.
Instead press "Home+Vol Down+Power" to get into Download-mode, then press "Vol Up" to continue and flash your Note.
After done the correct way i flashed in N7000XBKK4_N7000OXXKK5_N7000XXKK5_HOME.tar.md5 (using Odin3 1.85 Desktop).
Then rooted with:
DooMLoRD_v4_ROOT-zergRush-busybox-su
Then i put in Mobile Odin Pro... and everything looks good.
Now i can relax again.

SGP 5.0 YP-G70 Intl Resurrection
Please, my friends, help me!
Samsung Galaxy Player 5.0 YP-G70 (with phisycal home button) bricked.
I accidentally flashed the rom to SGS-I9000B to the SGP 5.0 so it got bricked.
It's status is: doesn't turn on, doesn't enter in dowload mode (Volume down + Home + Power), doesn't show charging icon.
After weeks of exaustive researche, the only way I was able to enter in download mode was using the Adam's Outler procedure: Instaling Linux, Java, Oracle Virtual Box a version of Windows under VBOX, to run Samsung drivers and Odin after using Unbrickable Resurrector R40.
Well, using this procedure SGP 5.0 enters in downloading mode and when I use the PIT file and BootloadersOnly provided by Adam the result in Odin is PASS! Despite that SGP doesn't reboot and keeps the same way: doesn't turn on, doesn't enter in dowload mode (Volume down + Home + Power), doesn't show charging icon.
So I enter in download mode using Unbrickable Resurrector R40 again and try to flash several SGP 5.0 YP-G70 Intl ROMs: Stock Froyo, Stock Ginger Bread and some Customs ROMs most of them PASS in the Odin result BUT SGP 5.0 never reboots or turn on after the procedure.
I have a doubt of marking or not Re-partition in Odin, but the procedure just works if I mark it.
I feel I was close to resurrect it and make it work again but all I've got is frustration.
I'm not an expert as the major of you so I beg some enlightned soul show me the way to make it works: step by step and share with me the right files I have to use to make it works.
I also have installed Heimdall but I was not able to find the appropriate files to use it and SGP 5.0 can not have the batery removed. Someone wrote Adam has developed a tool for SGP full recovery but I didnt find it.
Please, folks, help me and I will share the solution with other people in the same situation.
Thanks and best regards.

I think I bricked my son's tablet!

Crap!!! I hope someone can help me. I was trying to upgrade my son's tablet using odin and a stock 4.04 rom from here :Samsung P5100 / P5110 / P5113 Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 Complete Stock Firmware. The first one for the P5113.
Anyway, everything seemed to be going okay following the directions and then a failed came up in the first box in odin was red. I repeated it and it appeared to be stuck. The tablet was in download mode and the blue line had only progressed about a quarter inch. I heard the usb disconnect and reconnect sound and I tried to initiate it through odin again but the tablet wasn't responding. I stupidly on plugged the tablet and tried to power it down. Now I can't do anything. Can't get into recovery or download mode. The tablet is stuck on the screen and has this message with a picture of a tablet then a yellow triangle and a computer. Here is the message: Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again. Kies won't recognize the tablet and when I click on emergency firmare recovery it just asks for PC code. I am stumped. I am not familiar with Samsung at all. Also, the message on the screen won't disappear. If I hold down power it won't turn off, the screen will go black and then the message will come right back so I'm afraid the battery will be dead soon and then I will be totally out of luck.
The tablet is a wifi only P5113 Tab 2 10.1.

Not your device but its should be similar. Hope it works for you.

No luck so far, is there no way to get past this screen?

Not that I know of to be honest, You need to get into download/recovery .... Hopefully someone else more knowledgeable will come up with something !
How old is the tab ?
EDIT :
Will ODIN connect ... When you get that firmware error screen ?

No nothing, windows does recognize it and will install the driver. But Odin doesn't show anything happening and Kies just shows connecting. When you select emergency recovery in Kies it will stop trying to connect and bring up a dialog box asking for a recovery code. Apparently if the failure would have happened during a legit upgrade using Kies it would have generated an error code for recovery. Is there no way to repair this? Thought Samsung devices were suppose to be so easy to customize? Please help my son is pretty pissed.

Update!!!
I was able to get odin to connect to tablet and I got cwm recovery installed so it no longer boots to the failed firmware screen and I can get into recovery. My question is which firmware do I install?? The tablet is a Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 P5113 wifi only. Is the P5113UEBLH3 firmware the correct one? It says it was provided by Cellular South which confuses me since the tablet is wifi only.
Update 2!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Success!!! Got into download mode and was able to load the stock 4.04 firmware and life is good again. Thanks to all that helped.

One thing. Always update your table with OTA or Kies. ODIN breaks the warrantie

I bricked my device from Odin while trying to revert from a CM10.1 nightly to stock JB. Device picked up in Odin, but would not flash... unless I reboot the device after I clicked start in Odin. Dunno why, but it loaded stock firmware on the error screen... don' ask me how...

I have experienced this. Run ODIN, then connect your devices to the computer. When ODIN detect it, unplug and then replug your device. When ODIN back detect it then flash.

Recent versions of Odin work the other way around. First plug then open. Older like <1.87, first you open the program then you plug device. Glad it got solved.

I have also hit this screen several times while playing with roms, this is a fairly common example of "softbrick". Fortunately for me, Odin had no problems connecting, and then simply flashed an oem rom. I have not been able to hard brick this thing, which is a huge surprise considering all the flashing I've done. Frankly I'm surprised it hasn't blown up like an iraqi IED yet lol!
This is a good thing! It means that Samsung built in a good failsafe. It just means you hosed your rom install all the way down to the bootloader. Easy to recover from
Glad ya learned to fix it!

Hi, my problem is identical. I have a samsung galaxy tab 2 10.1 and after a failed update with Odin the message was:Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again. I try again with Odin and nothing. I used Kies, and nothing. Then i saw a reference to the md5 philz_touch_5.03.7-p5110.tar.md5 and i use it with Odin. Sucess but the message was RESET. Everithing disappeared from screen except the battery logo. The tablet is always on and with that image. The volume buttons and power don't work and it is not detected.
I'm affraid the thing is bad.
Can you help? Thank you.

Hey cruise, would you happen to still have the file you used on your son's box? The only page I can find won't let me in.

HELP!!! Soft Bricked Samsung G3 I747M (Rogers Canada)

Hello,
Here's my issue, I have a Samsung Galaxy S3 i747M (Rogers Canada) and I decided to root my phone to connect a wireless controller for running emulators. I used ODIN 3 and rooted it with the proper ROM and it worked fine. I then noticed it had been running really slow and I wanted to update it to the latest Android platform but in order to do that I need to unroot the phone and return it to the stock ROM because I also figured out that I can hook up the controller with a USB so my phone doesn't need to be rooted anymore. I found the stock CF-Auto rom for my specific phone and carrier and reinstalled ODIN 3 on my computer. When I plug the phone into my computer with ODIN open it recognises it and the COM3 field turns yellow and in the txt box it says that its connected. I load the Stock ROM into PDA and run ODIN. It completes and I get the green "Complete" box and in the txt box it says Complete Disconnect Phone but when I restart my phone it loads the Samsung loading video and then just hangs at the Samsung logo with the blue LED blinking and the only way to shut down the phone is to remove the battery. I am still able to get to the download screen (Vol Down + Home + Power) and also when I loaded the stock ROM in ODIN it said to make sure that F. TIME RESET and AUTO REBOOT is selected but AUTO REBOOT is already checked and I cant turn on F. TIME RESET as the options terminal in ODIN is greyed out and I cant change the options, could this affect it? I know my phone can be saved as its only Soft Bricked its just a matter of how.....PLZ HELP!!!

think you have flashed the rom and theres no os to run other than blank try installing again or else install custom recovery and run a custom rom
Good Luck!

Ok I will try it again today, what is the custom recovery thing and custom rom you're talking about? Sorry im not very savvy when it comes to smart phones, links would help a bunch and someone mentioned to me today to DL a new CF-AUTO stock rom for my phone because it may be the wrong one even though it was labeled for my model. Know of any good sites to get Official Stock Roms for phones?
Thanks
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ok so I found the newest version of ODIN3 and my actual Stock ROM, /fingerscrossed
If it works Ill post up where I found everything incase someone else comes across this problem with the same phone
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
***RESOLVED***
Ok so, I downloaded ODIN3 by hitting up Google and downloading it from the first link which was from this site (My issue was an out of date ODIN3 program, hence the grayed out options)
I got the stock file for my Samsung Galaxy S3 i747M (Rogers Canada) from SAMMobile (<Google this should be the first link)
This site has everything you need for Samsung anything and its free you just make an account. Also don't make the mistake I did and assume the list of stock files that comes up is all that's there, you have to manually search for your phone model and a list of countries and carriers comes up for that phone. The file was even the most up to date version which was a plus.

[Completed] Help with GT P1000N (ODIN cause my trouble)

Hello! I have a problem caused by an ODIN failure and I was wondering if I can get any help. My tablet is a GT P1000N and I updated my ROM to Lollipop 5.0. It worked perfect for around 2 weeks when suddenly when I was watching a You Tube video it start rebooting again and again so I downgrade it to stock rom and install Lollipop 5.1 by hygoandroid but I didn’t like it because my tablet was having problems with the screen and the notification bar also. And here is where my problems started. I flashed stock room via ODIN again to install Lollipop 5.0. I put everything in order to flash it and the process began but suddenly stop. I leave it like 30 min and then I realized it was stuck. So I disconnect the tab and shut it down. When I turn the download mode on again it was the cellphone exclamation sign computer and following a tutorial I recovered the tab and put it back to the normal download mode. I flashed the stock rom again and it didn’t get stuck but ODIN said FAILED. I put reset in Odin and put all the files again and press start but It didn’t make any change in my tab. I tried this like 3 times and then I try to put the tab again into recovery but the tab was in black. I tried to connect the tab to the computer and the computer recognized it (make the sound when you plug an usb) and I when I press the power button to shut down the computer makes the disconnect sound. Neither ODIN 3-V1-7 or heimdall suite 1.3.1 recognize my tab but my computer does like I explained. I hope anyone can help me. I know my tab is old but it was working great and I’m an engineering student that doesn’t have any money to buy a new one.
I wish everyone a great day. I speak Spanish, I did my best to write this in English. If something is not clear enough ask me.
Thanks!
