[Q] Runnig ICS 4.0.4 Stock [HELP][ROOT]

[chenaou]

Hello everyone, I've just bought my N7000, I used to have a LG P500, then a Xperia Sola, and now my amazing GALAXY NOTE !!!!

I'm reading a lot getting the info needed to get into this device and I find particulary confusing the rooting stuff.

I have found this tutorial by dr.ketan
[24sept12]How to Root/Unroot Samsung Galaxy Note + CWM

BUT acording to this thread by dr.ketan this method is dangerous.... and he says:

Present option to root ICS ROM is

So present option for rooting is - You can select any of one.

1. Short, easy - requires to reset counter

-Download Odin (.tar) version of custom kernel like Notecore, Speedmod, CF root kernel Or other any with same function.
-Flash it using PC odin for PDA tab.
-You will get exclamation mark and raised counter, which can be reset with Triangle Away

2. Long, No raised couter OR Exclamation mark
-Downgrade to Rootable GB ROM and Root it. OR Download This pre rooted GB ROM and flash using PC Odin
-Wipe cache, data and delvic cache from recovery
-Install Mobile Odin Pro
-Copy ICS ROM file in .tar (you want to flash) to Internal SD card (recommended, but you can have it on EXT too)
-Copy one of custom Kernel in .tar file e.g.Notecore, Speedmod, CF root kernel Or other any with same function.
-Open Mobile Odin Pro
-select open file
-Point to ROM file you have copied
-All fiels will popup and feel automatically
-select kernel and point to custom kernel file you have copied
Flash.
Done!

Those threads had 5 months old and my question is

¿What is the updated procedure to root the Note? (SAFE)

as RAj says just flash the Philz kernel for the rom build from stock recovery and you will get rooted after a reboot

go to Philz stock kernel thread. download the kernel that corresponds to your phone from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1901191

reboot into recovery by doing the 3 finger salute.

flash it. and then reboot.

you are rooted and on a safe kernel.

that is safe too but it breaks the camera. so the philz kernel one is better
