Hi there, we have a number of GT N7000 phones and they have been upgraded to the latest Android version. This has caused problems as the app we use on them wont work on Android 4 without a major overhaul. I need to restore the devices to the original state. How would I go about this?

If you are talking about getting the Android 2.3.6 gingerbread original firmware, goto www.sammobile.com and check for Galaxy Note GT-N7000 firmwares, there are a couple of 2.3.5 and 2.3.6 gingerbread firmwares.
You would find detailed instructions for how to flash the firmware by reading this Flashguide provided by sammobile. And please bear in mind that, if you flash the firmware you'll lose all your user data in your phone and it would be like factory reset.

Is really the extent you have to go to to reset the phone to default?

By flashing firmware as mentioned in the site, yes the phone would be factory reset and all user data maybe lost. So taking backups is recommended if you are planning to perform the task.
Please Help me ID
Hello, I got a SAMSUNG G-NOTE (MODEL: GT-N7000 SSN: N7000GSMH FCC ID: A3LGTI9220 S/N: RV1C22T0xxx 12.0 2(I think this last number is the fabrication date)) it is not rooted, has stock ROM, and I don´t know what android version it has, but the first day I got it, I don’t know how, I don’t know why, may be my little son had did something, now when I turn it on it ask me for password, so I try going into recovery mode and I select “wipe data/factory reset” after confirm “YES. . .” it also ask me for a “Confirm password”, I Also tried: *2767*3855# . . . and “adb shell >> recovery --wipe_data” but almost all commands said access deny. . . I would like to upload a stock firmware may be it fixes it, I found a page (mobilecon.info/samsung-galaxy-note-firmware.html) with a lot of firmware for GT-N7000, but I don’t know what is the right for me, I am fear to brick my device, I had Google for a way to identify the device, but unsuccessfully, please anybody can help me, Thanks, Regards
I posted this somewhere else, but I figured it was more appropriate to place it here.
After rooting and installing CWM using the method in the sticky at the top of the development section, (darkman's unnoficial CWM Recovery), My touchscreen no longer responds to finger input. The pen works fine, and is the only way I can navigate the tablet. Touch input doesn't work in CWM-touch either. I have tried: flashing a custom rom, flashing a stock rom through CWM, flashing stock firmware through Odin (both 4.0.4 and 4.1.2), resetting the triangle count, factory wipe/data reset, re-installing stock recovery, and changing various options in the settings. Nothing helped at all. I'm currently waiting for a reply on filing a warranty claim, but would really like not to have to send it in and wait for a new one. I've seen other people with similar issues, but most of them are either the s-pen doesn't work, or both s-pen and touch don't work. Does anyone have any idea of how to fix it, or is it definitely a hardware issue?
Thanks,
Reffu
Hi,
same issue here. Today the touchscreen stopped working suddenly after i flashed the Android Revolution HD 5.0 Rom yesterday. However, the S-Pen is still working fine. Installing other ROMs and the Stock ROM via Odin did not help. Issue allso appears in Touch-enabled-Recovery.
I see no reason, why this should be a hardware issue, although my N8000 came back from service a few days ago, where they also replaced the screen and digitizer.
Had anyone this issue before and was abled to resolve it?

I have the same problem on an n8013. Installed Revolution ROM HD version 5, rebooted and lost me touchscreen completely. Nothings worked. Flashed back to stock 4.1.2 but still no go.

to read this as a Note 10.1 newbie is not very encouraging. are there any similar facts between all of you like
which Note model do you have
how did you jaibreak (which method)
which rom did you have before
which rom do you have now
how did you flash a new rom
...
is there a way to find out whether the touchscreen is really "dead for touch"?
This is a bit scary - my Note 10.1 is arriving today, and I plan to root it at a minimum. I actually don't mind Touchwiz all that much on my Note 2 (which is running CleanROM ACE), so I think I might just root the 10.1 for now.
So restoring completely back to stock (via Odin) doesn't fix it? That is really odd that ROM-ing this thing might cause a hardware failure...

Did anyone solve this, I'm having the same problem.
I never actually ended up solving this. I sent it in for repair (I had just bought it about a week before attempting to root) after flashing back to stock, and now I have a "new" one . I really want to root it, but I'm afraid the same thing is going to happen again. I really don't want to have to check if the warranty will cover the same issue twice, even if they don't know I rooted.

Just curious - did you just root, or did you root and install a ROM?
I am only rooted so far - haven't felt the need to ROM yet - partially due to worries about this happening. I bought a refurb from Best Buy and only get 90 days of warranty.

If they say you got a new one, you got one. They'll tell you otherwise if there's an issue over the phone.
But I wouldn't be afraid of ROMs, but to be more diligent and wise when it comes to choosing them. It's like choosing a poisonous mushroom versus an edible one to make stroganoff or stir fry. If you know what to avoid for the next time and follow the correct process to doing the root and flashing, there will not be an issues.
This is from someone who has soft-bricked my first tablet and learned how to unbrick my SIM-less Captivate and Note 10.1. It's how you apply the method and how much attention you practice not getting stuck into these situations is what matters. Especially since I bricked my tablet via experimentation and un-bricked it on the same day with ease.
It's not some big complex deal of rocket science or something only the mere geniuses can do, its how you perceive yourself and how you act. If you believe that you will suck and brick it to kingdom come , it will happen intentionally or subconsciously.
In this case, it was a freak accident where the file/s accessed and deleted the wrong files which allowed for capacitive touchscreen use, and it should be reported to x developers if you have not done so already.
I have rooted and used the Revolution HD rom, the Rom where you customize the colors of the bar/other things, and on the Captivate, the AOKP Collective. I further customized the latter with the Xperia launcher as it zips.
Did anyone find a repair for this besides replacement? My Note 2 is doing the same thing now.
Has anyone found a fix for the touch screen not working yet??
Anyone have any ideas?
Technicians input for touch problem
I am a technician and been repairing electronic devices for over 30 years and I would say the majority of repairs I have done were caused by people not happy with how their standard brand new device works and feel they need to make it better by modifying it in some way or other.
Now with smartphones if you didn't want the device as a standard rom and operating system why buy it ?
If you think the phone would be so much better with a modified rom then buy one working with a modded rom to start with as most of you put as much effort into modding as you did in your school work.
Anyone with half a brain that follows the instructions on the mod sites exactly as shown step by step will never have a problem, all those that do end up with paper weights or bricks didn't follow the instructions in numerical order.
Believe it or not even if after you have modded a rom and brought it back to standard they know it has been modded as they have a list of problems associated with repairs after roms have been modded so you are only fooling yourself they don't.
Same as the smoker that tells his Dr he has given up even though all the symptoms prove he really didn't.
So in my expert opinion if you play with modding and stuff it up why should you be eligible for a warranty claim ? The manufacturer has sold you or supplied a working item that you decided to f_ck around with and because of your stupidity expect some one else to pay for it.
I am not saying don't mod your phone with all the great roms out there but please to save yourself a lot of pain and cost some poor smuck trying to run a business in these economic times a lot of out of pocket from sending items back for replacement or warranty plus the time it takes to do all the paperwork and such, please please please read the instructions 300% or triple check you are doing everything exactly as the instructions say and you will be enjoying all the new benefits of that customised rom and laughing at all the noobs stuffing up their brand new device from not doing so.
I know this won't fix your problem but reread that last bit it was your problem as you are to clever to follow some one else's instructions
anyone have solution regarding this issue, mine have issue also, can anyone spare how to fix it without changing hardware?

WOW.. And you come to XDA For ? Most of the time The modded roms often fix manufacture issues and add features the manufacturer decided users do NOT Need ..Being your first post on xda . I do NOT think attacking users is the way to go. Also your post adds nothing to help the users..

Have any of you who have this issue try to do a full Wipe and flash pit file for your device.. Something is being left behind and not over written is most likely the Cause.. Also post this in the Rom developers forum So maybe he can look into it more as its his Creation..

P500VPBMB3 Sprint 4.1.2 Firmware
For some unusual reason there is little to no development for the SPH-P500 and absolutely ZERO official firmware available for the Sprint model. This means, if you soft brick the tablet trying to install something you should not have, you have no easy way of getting back to the stock firmware. In addition, getting to the 4.1.2 version of the firmware is a royal pain due to the massive amount of "PATCH CHECKS" and assert checks built in to the OTA update. This means any deodexed system or a number of other reasons will be rejected if you try the OTA update while on non-official or approved firmware. So, for your convenience, I have compiled a simple ODIN-Flashable TAR file which will jet you up to speed installing the latest official Sprint 4.1.2 firmware.
Details:
P500VPBMB3 Stock w/ MB3 Modem
Package Includes: BOOT, RECOVERY, SYSTEM, MODEM AND CACHE ZONES
Download:
P500VPBMB3 Sprint 4.1.2 Firmware
Password on the archive is: www.mobiletechvideos.com
How To Flash:
BACKUP YOUR FILES AND DATA BEFORE FLASHING...ALWAYS. First extract this file using WinRAR or a program capable of extracting a RAR package as the package inside it is the TAR file you need. This was done to save time on the download. Once extracted, using ODIN, select PDA and choose this file. Now place your tablet in DOWNLOAD MODE by having it powered off, then power on by holding POWER and VOLUME DOWN until you see the on-screen text come up. Release the buttons and press VOLUME UP to enter DOWNLOAD MODE. Now click START on ODIN. Once completed (takes around 10 minutes), it is advised to enter RECOVERY MODE and perform a FACTORY DATA RESET for the best bug free experience since I don't know what ROM you are flashing from.
Did this help you out? Great, I'm glad it did! Click that THANKS button next to my name if you have the time. Please note, if you find yourself in a hard/soft brick situation of any type on any advice, give me a shout via PM or email through the contact page on our site. We also offer repairs on a number of other issues.
27 downloads and nothing? I'd love some feedback so others can be confident in the firmware.
It´s a disease from all P31XX and P51XX useres don´t hitting the thanks button and don´t giveing feedback... maybe they don´t want any support.... (?)...
i don´t have a P51XX - i can´t give other feddback then this... sorry....
Haha it seems that way! Well thanks for your response. Nice to hear from somebody about this. For some reason the Tab 2 10.1 forum members seem to be dead but want development anyhow without any input!
There are a lot of people here in a german forum there is mostly nobody ...
i hope you get some feedback! if not: there is not problem first things that will reported are problems
Haha, how true! No news is good news right?
problem and feedback if it works...
Hi. I am pretty new here (although I have been a member for a while, I have not really been active). I do have a Sprint Samsung Galaxy tab 2 10.1 inch display model P500VPBMB3. Perhaps I can try out what you are talking about if it helps me with my problem below and then I will be more than happy to give you feedback.
PROBLEM
I never really rooted a device before but I am at a loss here since the current version of Android that I have on my device is 4.1.2 . It's working OK but I run out of space very often since I only have 16GB of main memory. I would love to upgrade to 4.2.x so that I have the option of storing apps on the external SD card. I am not clear exactly what you are giving us here on your thread. If you can explain it to me and especially if it does what I am outlining above I would want done, I would love to give it a shot and then give you some feedback.
Either way thank you for helping is Sprint tablet people whether or not what you have above will help me.
Thanks

You will actually want to look into custom recovery combined with a custom ROM to enable this type of option. What I have provided here is a stock firmware (stock operating system). This is actually already what you have installed on the device.

Thank you very much for your prompt reply. You seem to be a helpful sort of person. I am sorry to be so dense but I have no idea what those things are. Is there a place where I can, sort of begin from scratch to learn all about these things or can you please fully explain what I need to do here?
I get that yo said that what you are offering is what I already have. What I don't understand is what exactly what to look for. I do know that if I install the wrong thing, I can brick my device. What I don't know if how to find what I am looking for. I already tried it in the search box-that's how I got to your thread.
This is honestly a very tough section as the P500 is a rare unit that has little to no development. You are in the right sub-forum but finding any mods for your unit may not be possible at this time unfortunately.
Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!! You can root with Kingo root and make modifications with xposed. I just have been so busy with work.
I will flash this when I have time. Now I can be more risky with flashing because I can now go back to stock ROM.

Hello, I know its been almost a year, but I tried to flash this ROM and get stuck after the tab reboots with the message "POWER RESET or UNKNOWN UPLOAD MODE", is there anything I can do to restore the tab (I did not do any backup).
Thanks a bunch
Do you have the Sprint model? If so, try re-downloading it and flashing again. Afterwards, perform a factory data reset.

The tab comes from China but in the options i've seen SPH-P500 so I supposed it was a model made for Sprint.
I did flash again and reset factory but nothing changed.

That is definitely unusual though the fact it came from China. This likely is NOT the right firmware for your model. The back of the unit should have the model number. See what it says...

P500
Wow!! I made a mistake!! I bought this tab to have some fun rooting and installing custom roms. I should have checked the forums first to see if there was any support. Thanks for what you've provided here. I'm going to at least try to root and install xposed.
I have a sprint gtab2 10.1 that's out of contract, so i'm willing to start working on things if needed.
if we no longer need to use the Sprint data can we flash a SPH-P5100 rom for wifi only ?
resurrecting an old thread. Need to find the original firmware for sph-p500. This appears to be it, but I can't find or get the password to the .rar file. I can't find the firmware anywhere else after a TON of google searches. any help appreciated in either getting the password to the .rar file, or a different place to download the firmware.
Hello folks,
i am new here, i have a problem with one of my friends mobile Samsung Galaxy S III I9300 Android v4.0.4 (Ice Cream Sandwich), it so happened he dropped the mobile from his hand and from that moment, the device fails to load properly.
I tried to go to Recovery mode, by pressing Power key+DownVol key+Home key. The next screen was all fuzzy, it didn't show anything.
So i tried Power key+UpVol key(this time)+Home key, it showed a warning page, please see images to be more clear.
On continuing with the process, it went to Download mode.
I am little familiar with that process, since it is trying to update the device OS to a newer version of Android.
I did a little research and found out there was Android 4.4.4 Kit Kat available.
I can proceed to download that, but i want to know few things and i.e.,
The device is not Rooted.
CWR is not installed.
Whether it is safe to proceed with the update of Android Ice Cream Sandwich to Android Kit Kat.
I also found Galaxy S III can be updated to 4.3 (Jelly Bean), but i want your opinion which would be suitable for this device.
Thanks.
I do not want to brick my friends device, since i am getting paid to do this stuff. Hence i am requesting any kind of expert advice.
Thank you.
P.S: Any suggestion is welcommed and waiting for any reply impatiencly. Also if the moderator thinks this post must be in some other part of the forum, please do so. :fingers-crossed:
Hello again, i did a little research and found out this site, where it mentions in detail how to install ClockworkMod Recovery 6.0.4.7 on Galaxy S3 GT-I9300

It also say, PIT partition not found, does anyone know how to figure out this problem.
Or
Is it a hardware issue, do i need to change the motherboard or give it to technician to fix it.
First off: Have you tried posting it under the correct category on this forum? its under galaxy core... you have a galaxy S 3
Second, you can update if it stock... custom recoveries and roms do void warranty. That is, if the kitkat is for his phone it is no problem. upgrading wrong rom to your phone will mess with it yes. Boot loops and stuff.
Then again, if it droped I would rather have sent it in for repairs if it was still under the warranty .

I find it quite difficult to find my way in this forum, just newbie here.
But thank you for your concern. My friend has taken the mobile , he thinks its better to repair it by technician.
Enough of head-ache for a device that can't be repaired through updating, the mobile was trashed. Couldn't be salvaged through
updating.

Going back versions?
Ok, I'm pretty good on flashing ROMs and using TWRP. But I was thinking of trying a 5.1.1 Rom, I am rooted running just the stock Rom 6.01 currently. I have a SM-N900W8, so I assume I'll likely have to get the modem too depending on what ROM I choose.
My only concern is going backward, I don't know what kernel I might need to flash? Should be able to keep the answer simplistic in explanation, I just need the warnings and a basic checklist of what to do when going backward. And if I can complete this using just TWRP or whether I need to flash something with Odin or whether Flashfire might work.
Thanks in advance. Sorry I'm not a guy who has time to learn code. I try to donate if I'm going to use someone's work though. Just nice to have my phone run fast and smooth and be able to tinker...

Thanks in advance. Sorry I'm not a guy who has time to learn code. I try to donate if I'm going to use someone's work though. Just nice to have my phone run fast and smooth and be able to tinker...

Hi
What do you mean by 'going backward'? Do you wanna downgrade your device from Marshmallow to Lollipop? If yes, refer to this thread.
Hit Thanks if I Helped You!!!

Ok, if going back to a earlier version of Android, then flash the factory full ROM of that version through Odin, then flash custom ROM of same version. Got it, thanks. Sounds like the easiest way.

Stuck N915G
Am using a N915G , it was rooted with CW recovery , since yesterday it would go in restart loop , so i went into recovery and did a reset , still the loop would not go , so i took into a service center they tries kies and it would intall lollipop but half way through it will show " erasing " and then go back to boot loop , now at this point when i re checked the phone there is no CW recovery , so i tried Odin with Marshmallow to flash the system , it shows PASS but during installation " System updating .. erasing " then goes back to reboot so i flashed new set of Pit files , but still the phone stays in boot loop , vibrates then goes off to loop , what am i doing wrong
Won't power on after normal power off.
Hi,
i mean; when i turn of the phone with normal shutdown menu, device power off normally.
But when i attempt to turn on device again, it won't turn on. nothing happens when i press or hold the power button.
only the way to turn on again, "plug a charge cable or usb cable"
after it detects the charge, and shows charging. after then i can turn on the device normal.
but, not possible to turn on without plug the cable once.
so; what can be my device's problem. (there is no another problem) except fast battery drain.
my opinion; humidity damage? or something like that.?
can any oxidation causes this problem?
please reply for help.
thanks.

Hello, I rooted my Samsung Galaxy Note Edge (N915T) Tmobile way back in 2014, I have since then forgot how to root again. I know that my phone is still rooted because I have SU.
My phone specs right now:
Bootloader: N915TUVU1ANJL
OS Version: KitKat 4.4.4
CPU: ARMv7-A (armeabi-v7a)
Kernel version: 3.10.0-2990579
I saw a post here in XDA about new Custom ROM (7.1.2 AOKP Nougat) and I would like to install custom ROM, and reading the instructions it states that it requires Bootloader 6.0.1 and Modem. I have no idea how to install bootloader and modem up to 6.0.1 on my phone. Kindly please guide me how to identify my current bootloader and how to upgrade up to 6.0.1. Thanks!
Hello,
I am using Odin v3.12.7 and I tried to select (twrp-3.0.2-0-tbltetmo.img) from Odin, but is not selectable because it does not have (.md5) or (.tar), where can I find a TWRP in those file formats?
What custom rom can i flush with my note edge sc-01g docomo japan,
Corrupt microsdcard and otg devices
Hi,
This is about my note edge N915G and what will follow has strangely happened with every kind of rom for the device stock rooted, aokp, customized stock, and slimroms.
What happens is
scard shows as corrupted after busybox/magisk7viper mods I mean the card is fine when I install busy box and magical and viper then in stall viper drivers and it is still good but when I reboot to activate the viper mods my card shows as corruption. I another thing that happens is when the card shows as corrupt, I I can try another card and still shows corrupt and strangely even the devices I connect through otg all show as corrupt. Ii think it is busy box which is needed for viper that does it, but am not sure.
Another guess is that maybe some embedded file on the phone has been deleted or corrupted and that is causing me the trouble. I have installed the Enhanced rom this evening and had set it up with closed root and magical. I it was all fine. I then I installed busy box using smart install and after that opened viper fx 2.5 and viper xhi=fi and each prompted to install drivers and they installed successfully and advised a reboot. It is after reboot that I opened my music player and found no songs which was be aise it is showing my card as corrupt. I strangely even if I reverse the process and uninstall viper drivers then viper apps and finally busybox it still does not change the status of the card. It is either that I install the rom again dirty or restore a system backup that was made while there were no add ons.
I would really appreciate if anyone can help figure this out as I do have the workaround of restoring system but it is tedious as I have to install all apps etc.
I would like to reiterate that this is not the kind of issue associated with Samsung phones in general where they are said to kill microsdcards. This is not the case and the card works flawlessly in a different phone which I did to check. My laptop too has no issues with same card it is a Samsung evo 64 gb card I'm using. Maybe they key is that even other as cards whether I put them in the card slot or in a card reader for otg it shows any card I use as corrupt and even my otg drives show up as corrupt. I think it is something I have never seen happening yet.
Thanks for reading this and for your suggestions and advice. I will look forward to your thoughts and inputs, knowledge and experience.

At&t Samsung Note Edge N915A 6.0.1
Hi I'm a noob. Last phone I "jailbroke" was a IPhone 3gs. Could you link me in the right direction to root my Samsung note edge from At&t 6.0.1 a list of procedures would be great, also a list of downloads. Anything & Everything I need on my phone or my Laptop to complete the process. All input would be appreciated. I just paid a large chunk of $ to Samsung to have my screen replaced and I am the original owner of my device which I paid a lot of money for in 2014, so I would hate to brick my device. Thanks
