ICS Update Un Rooted My Phone... Quick ? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717

Hopefully I posted this in the right forum, If not please move it!
Ok, So I updated my phone via Kies and got the official ICS update (Finally) for my AT&T Galaxy Note, Problem is, as expected... it unrooted my phone and I'd like it rooted again, I want to keep the new official stock ICS rom and just want it rooted again to delete all that garbage bloatware to keep my phone sharp, any help?
Do i just re-root it doing it the same way I did before?
Will it ruin my new ICS rom?
Can anyone link me to the files that will root my phone but keep the ICS Stock Rom?
I didnt have a single problem Rooting it the first time on ginerbread, but Im not sure what will happen with a different official rom installed. Just dont wanna have to reinstall ICS again or something, when I just spent about an hour setting it back to how I had everything, then remembered updating unrooted me.
Any advice or help is really appreciated!
Thanks!

Not really in right section more like a Q&A section.
However the devs need a little time to sort through all the code but these guys are smart and root will come soon and they will proudly announce it. Just enjoy for now.

I just odined the cwm .tar and then flashed the superuser .zip (both can be found in the general section, just do a search) and I'm rooted on the official update.

My links....look for gnote page...

ok so just do odin again liek i did before?
And I hope im not asking too much, but can anyone link me to the files I need directly? The last ones I used was from a source outside of XDA (xda was down for maintenance) and I think it gave me a virus on my computer and after doign a system restore today i dont wanna do that again lol. so if its not a problem can someone link me to the right files i need?
Thanks everyone!

Yes.
Now look one post above your last one.
To see the links Mr. Joe is referencing you need to be on a pc.
To install CWM you need to be on a pc.
To root you need a pc.
Mr.Joe would only post trusted links.

I successfully updated my Note to ICS yesterday and want to root it again as well. I looked through the Note section in BigJoe's thread, but can't figure out exactly what files I need. I rooted it with Gingerbread without issue. I've looked through the unlocking/rooting section and the one thread that explains how to root specifically says that the method will NOT work with the official ICS update.
Sorry to sound so dense, but could someone link exactly which files I/we need to root the official ICS via Odin?

What you asked for is in the third post.

ps that odin3 file doesnt work just gives a random script window then force closes

[Q] Need Stock ROM

$5 DONATION TO YOUR PAYPAL IF YOU GET ME THIS ROM!
Does anyone have ATGAdmins stock rooted ROM? Here's the link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1590754
While spring cleaning my Prime a few weeks ago, I deleted the zip. Later on, I accidentally deleted my nandroid backup also. ATGAdmin has closed up shop on XDA and I cannot find the ROM anywhere else.
It was the stock .21 ROM rooted with super user and busy box..that's it. No mods, either performance wise or visual wise. If anyone has it or can tell me where to get it, I would really appreciate it.
Thanks.
if you want to run stock .21 just install like .15 or something, root it, use OTA rootkeeper, then do an OTA update to .21...
Only works with OTA updates tho, so if you cant do those then unfortunately this wont work.

Yea, forgot to mention I'm rooted and unlocked, so no OTA updates for me. I know most people that tried the ROM still have the zip, it's just a matter of them finding this post and sharing.

Almost. From the Virtous thread: This is a pretty much stock build of Android 4.0.3 Ice Cream Sandwich with tweaks and optimization's by the Virtuous Team.
That's what I didn't want. Because there are tweaks and optimizations, etc, some games don't work. Also, for some weird reason, a lot of people are claiming that the Prime is suddenly randomly rebooting recently. Someone said maybe a framework expired or something....idk.
what games dont work for ya?
Someones gotta have this ROM...

Thanks man...that's not what I wanted, but I'm going to DL it anyway before it's gone. It's a shame he left. Jermaine151 left XDA and went to Rootzwiki, but ATGAdmin completely DISAPPEARED. Even his website is gone.

Hey thanks a lot man. Hopefully someone has it. The way that I accidentally deleted my backup was because the backups are named by date, and I'm not sure if you can change the names, so I write the date of the backup down along with what ROM it is. Well I got mixed up somewhere (like 8 backups) and marked the stock ROM as something else, and later deleted it...thinking I was deleting an old AOKP. I'm afraid hardly anyone has it because it was just a plain stock ROM, just rooted with busybox and SU. So it wasn't very popular. I found another stock ROM I'm using now but it's the WW firmware and it bothers me. And the trackpad doesn't work. So thanks for the offer.
I'M STILL LOOKING FOR ATGADMINS STOCK ROM....EVERYONE! LINK IN FIRST POST!

How to get rid of OTA update without installing it?

A bit of a nooby question, but I've never come across it or had to do it before.
I know I could flash a custom ROM but nothing quite stands out just yet, waiting for S3 USA release. There should be a lot more action on the ROM side then.
But at the moment I'm on stock, rooted and woke up with an update on my phone yesterday. From what I've read there's 2 updates 1 after the other and 1's a new kernel. I'd rather not update and root again if there's a simple way of removing the update e.g. like say delete a file from somewhere. After all my phone's running 100% as is.
Anyone know the answer? Its bugging me now, you can only perspone it for 3 hours at a time.
If I don't get rid of it by tomorrow I'm going to reaserch if i can just update over a rooted stock ROM. Find out about the new kernel build make sure I can root after updating and reluctantly update.
Thanks in advance

Hi mate
I have the same problem and can't get rid of the OTA update available message, if you find a solution then please post.
Many thanks!!
download the 'update' from sammobile.com it's the LF2 rom, install with mobile odin and tell it to keep root.... problem solved
I just used titanium backup to delete the updater. Seems to be working fine for now.

downgrading to 2.3 to be able to root and go to ICS?

Hello,
Have done some searches and I just wanted to see if this is right as my Note was rooted with Gingerbread 2.3 and I stupidly upgraded with Kies to the official AT&T ICS software and lost my root. I have just a few questions.
Would the only way to get a rooted stock ICS rom on the phone (such as those available in the forum) be to downgrade to Gingerbread and root (which I have done before) then install one of the custom "stock" roms to have ICS but have root access? Or am I completely out of luck on rooting a stock ICS Note?
If so, could someone direct me to the thread with downgrading to gingerbread, as a search has not helped me to find instructions for doing so, and with all of the information on this site, I believe it has to be there and that I a just missing it?
Feel free to delete my post if I am completely lost and have posted erroneously in the wrong forum or anything to that effect.

Root with odin like you would on gb but on ICS. Just try the cm9 roms though, it will change your life
You do not need to downgrade to GB to root. What you need to do is boot the phone into download mode, and use Odin to flash a custom recovery (such as CWM). Once you have the custom recovery flashed, you can boot into recovery mode and flash the Superuser or Supersu zip file to give you root. Using this method is the most foolproof way.

Jeez, I am confused.

I just got the Note today, and I have the GSIII. I am testing them both out. I was told rooting the Note and installing recovery was super easy but there are like 15 guides and I don't know how to root this thing.
I need a guide, and then maybe some suggestions to good ROM's once I actually figure out how to root.
Any help is appreciated.
Go to this website. Www.rootgalaxynote.com and find the section for the i717. He lays out everything and give all the necessary files.

First ensure you have th i717 Note by ATT, just saying due to users from the N7000 have mistakenly come here.
Go here to see all the lists of what you need:

It will require some homework on your part, but the threads are very easy to follow, just read, ok
do you have ICS on your phone now, have you done the latest Officially update to ICS? If so then there is section on the Super page to point you where to go to root...ok

Gosh thank you all for replying so fast, I thanked all of you.
No it is still on GB, I haven't done the kies ICS update. I would figure rooting in GB would lose root when I upgraded to ICs and then I would have to repeat the entire process.

Honestly I just suggest flashing an ICS custom ROM. Easier than kies, and better anyways.
If you want to try out the "stock ICS" feel, look no further than here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1664980
that will still have smemo and all the stock widgets and launcher. It's just de-bloated, deodexed, and rooted. It's pretty much like stock on steroids.
If you don't care about the stock feel or the spen or touchwiz stuff, try anything else out there. Lots of good ROMs, all better than stock through kies.
I'm currently running rasroygbiv's Gubment Cheeze, a CM9 based ROM, and it's awesome. Haven't had an ounce of lag, and I've been testing it for quite a while now, before it was released here. Highly recommended that you at least try it if you like the whole CM9 thing.
And for your gs3, look for Nunhugger's Triune, it's a stockish debloated rooted ROM and he's doing some sweet things theming stock touchwiz.

[Q] Rooted S3 problem

I'll be as straight to the point as I can
I bought a SGS3(i9300) it had ICS when I wanted to update It always said"No update available" and I tried OTA and Kies nothing got me the update to JB
so I went back to the place I bought it from he told me you're not gonna get the update because of where your device was made or something like that(Although I have friends who had the same device, bought it from the same place and they got the OTA update)
anyway He told me he will get me the JB by rooting...I was so eager to get the JB update I said ok...he did it
now I have a rooted device with this build number(JZO54k,I9300XXelk4)(it says its the stock rom when I googled it....I guess)
The problem is I want to get rid of this rom go back to stock and get the official update to JB from samsung via OTA maybe so that it will give me updates if any are available soon(The s4 features they were talking about)because now when I try to check for updates it says your device is modified
Another question is if I want to change to a custom ROM now what should I do?(I really want to try this Rom which makes the software like of the Nexus 4)(I dont think he backed up the ICS stock one)
Thanks alot and sorry for writing this long article
P.S:Yes Im a noob when it comes to rooting...

there is also a search function and in addition the guide "back to stock" which describes how to get OTA back.
but here again for you: unroot, flash stock, make sure to align the CSC with the firmware version, and it should work.
