[How To] Install Ice Cream Sandwich ICS On AT&T Galaxy Note i717 ,SGH-I717UCLC5 ROM – How To Root AT&T Note With ICS Instructions Included…

Well it’s time for the latest update to our Galaxy Note and it’s in the form of ICS otherwise known as Ice Cream Sandwich. Warning!!! This is just for the AT&T Note, not the international. You are risking your device and I’m not liable for you flashing this leaked ROM. It’s pretty stable and makes the phone run a lot smoother. Just follow my instructions and you should be good. Make sure you battery is fully charged before we start. The screenshots are pictures of my Samsung Note after this is completed, not process pics. Lets get started :)

wpid SC20120406 164802 [How To] Install Ice Cream Sandwich ICS On AT&T Galaxy Note i717 ,SGH I717UCLC5 ROM   How To Root AT&T Note With ICS Instructions Included...

1) There are two links for Odin below. You only need to select one. It doesn’t matter which one. Click one and be patient as it downloads.
Windows Only!!
SOURCE 1
SOURCE 2

2) On your computer, go to the .exe that you just downloaded above and run as administrator. Typically you right click and Run as Administrator. Say yes or okay if it prompts you. Odin will open. Now, leave the computer alone. Back to your phone.

3) Time to put your phone in download mode. Turn it off, or power it down completely. Press and hold volume down (on the left) and the power button (on the right) until it turns on. You’ll see a warning message. Don’t worry. Press volume up (on the left) to enter download mode.

4) Now plug in your phone to your computer using your USB cable. Odin should recognize the phone. The indicator is usually a yellow box within Odin.

5) If you see a yellow box or that Odin has detected your phone, CLICK START!

6) Be very patient as it can take some time. Also it will boot up possibly twice and show the Android logo and the AT&T logo. Do not unplug or interrupt this process at all

7) Your phone should boot up if you followed my instructions and you should have ICS or Ice Cream Sandwhich with facial recognition and all the goodies that come with ICS except a few others because this is a leaked version but it’s very stable. Almost everything runs smoothly.

Note: If you get a forced close upon start-up this is normal because this is a leaked unfinished version.

8) Optional! Most importantly if you want to take advantage of ICS I recommend you download the Apex Launcher. It’s highly customizable. I recommend it and I love this launcher!

[How To] Root Galaxy Note i717 model

Beforehand: Make Sure Samsung Kies is install on your computer. If that link is down then just Google it and download and install it on your computer.

1) Time to put your phone in download mode as we did in the above instructions. Turn it off, or power it down completely. Press and hold volume down (on the left) and the power button (on the right) for approximately 10 seconds. You’ll see a warning message. Don’t worry. Press volume up (on the left) to enter download mode.

2) Now plug in your phone to your computer using your USB cable.

3) Download This ZIP file HERE and make sure you unzip it. If you did successfully you should see 4 files. If the previous link doesn’t work please contact me and I’ll find another source.

4) Locate where you unzipped those files and double click odin3 v1.85.exe . In Odin you should see a yellow rectangular box and that means you’re ready.

5) In Odin click the PDA button and find where you unzipped odin_ni717_cwm_recovery_b4.tar. It should be located in the same place as the other files. Hit START!!

6) You should see a PASS or RESET in Odin. Once your phone reboots copy over Superuser-3.0.7-efghi-signed.zip to your SD card. To do this just plug in your phone to the computer, as it may already be, and copy and paste that previous file into the root or somewhere convenient on the Phone or SD card. I picked Phone Storage.

7) Now we need to reboot into ClockworkMod Recovery. This is important. Hold down the Volume Up and Volume Down as well as the power for 10 seconds. When your phone resets (you will feel little vibration and the screen will turn off), now keep holding down the Volume Down and the Power button ONLY. If you didn’t do this correctly, try again.

8) Phone will boot up into CWM Recovery and the text will look blue. Using your volume buttons as navigation, go to Install zip from sdcard. Press the power button to select. Then go to choose zip from Internal sdcard or wherever you stored it and you the power button to select. You should eventually see Superuser-3.0.7-efghi-signed.zip. Select it with the power button, confirm and let it run by selecting YES.

9. That should be done very quickly and when it has it will say “Install complete. Enjoy!” Install from sdcard complete.

10. Root and you’re now rooted!! I hope you have ICS as well!!

11. Optional! If you want to take advantage of ICS I recommend you download the Apex Launcher. It’s highly customizable. I recommend it and I love this launcher!

How To Root AT&T Samsung Note SGH-i717 [Easy Instructions]

reootnote How To Root AT&T Samsung Note SGH i717 [Easy Instructions]

Bought a Samsung Note or i717 model from AT&T and had it rooted in less than a minute, seriously!!

DO THIS FIRST: Make sure you have the latest Samsung Drivers downloaded and installed to your computer. Download them HERE. Install them successfully before you proceed to the next step.

DO THIS SECOND: Download pda.tar file HERE and put it somewhere, I recommend on your desktop. Save it to your computer basically.

DO THIS THIRD: Make sure you have Odin3 1.8.5 HERE installed on your computer. If you do then skip this.

Step 1) Power off your phone completely. Also make sure it isn’t connected to your computer (doesn’t matter, but it’s what I did). Hold down the Volume down and Power until you get another screen which is download mode. When you get download mode, press Volume up to continue.

Step 2) Open up Odin3 on your computer. Now, plug phone (it should still be in download mode) into computer using your USB cable. If should recognize it. If it doesn’t then you did something wrong. Try again.

Step 3) In Odin3, click the PDA button, nothing else, and select the pda.tar file that you download and placed, on your desktop or wherever you previously saved it.

Step 4) Click start. Your phone may reboot a couple of times but that’s normal.

Step 5) Lastly, on your phone download the Superuser app from the Android market HERE. It’s easier just to go to the market on your phone and download it. You’re rooted, got Superuser and you’re done. If an application asks for it, and you know what you’re doing and you will want to give Superuser permission by selecting yes if ever prompted in the future.

LETS RECAP

Phone was initially off, you pressed and held volume up & down & the power for two flashes of the screen and after the second flash you let go. Now you’re in Recovery mode.
