For those who possess the 1st generation of Galaxy Note (N7000) and seek the Jelly Bean update, you may then want to check the below step-by-step instruction on how to update Galaxy Note to Jelly Bean 4.1.2 by yourself.



There are several advanced features found in this Jelly Bean update such as Buttery Smooth Performance & Great Stability (Thanks to Project Butter), Multi-View (Multi Windows Multi-tasking, just like in Note 2), Multi-View may also be turned off, Ripple Effect on Lock Screen, Page Buddy, Notification Panel can now be customized, New Additions in Notification Panel, Smart Rotation (Screen Display adjusts to your angle of sightings), Continues Input in Samsung Keyboard (Like Swipe or Android 4.2 Keyboard), samsung flasher odin's Cloud services, Direct Call, Smart Stay and Pop-up Play Features, New Widgets From the Galaxy S3, Two Home screen modes, New Notifications bar and also the Google Now app.

Before doing the update process, you must make sure that your Galaxy Note has been already installed with at least Android 4.0.4 (Ice Cream Sandwich). It's strongly suggested to backup the whole data first as this process requires you to format all of the data on your device. In addition, you must install Samsung Kies on your computer or laptop. Lastly, determine whether you've attached the microSD card on your smartphone.

The update process requires you to root the Galaxy Note initially. To do it, you must download cwm.zip and SU-Busybox-Installer.zip and then transfer those files on sd card. Set your handset to the Sistem Recovery mode by pressing and holding the Up Volume Power Home concurrently. The handset will restart and wait until you can see the System Recovery screen (here you can stop pressing those buttons).



Choose the "apply update from external storage" menu and then seek the cwm.zip file that you've previously saved on sd card. Press the Up or Down Volume button to navigate and use the Power Off button to choose the file. When you're on the CWM (ClockworkMod Recovery) screen, opt for the "Install Zip from SD card", then choose the "Zip from Internal SD card", and then set up SuperSU.zip. If everything's ok, you may opt for "reboot system now" and that's it you have correctly rooted your device.

At this point, you need to modify the kernel of your device. Initially, download the Mobile ODIN Lite from XDA. Remember that the Mobile ODIN will download a few files so it needs data package or WI-Fi network. Then, you'll have to download SpeedMod Kernel and then save it to the internal or external storage. Following that, now you may set up and open the Mobile ODIN (pick the Grant Access option and let it download any files if needed). Click on the Kernel and direct it to the SpeedMod Kernel that you've formerly stored on internal or external storage. Lastly, select the Flash Firmware option and now you have done rooting the smartphone.

To update your Galaxy Note to Jelly Bean, you have to download the ROM Jelly Bean 4.1.2 (700 mb). When you have finished downloading the ROM, you will need to store it to the sd card. Go to the System Recovery Mode once again and then pick "Wipe Data/Factory Reset", "Wipe Cache Partition", "Install Zip" and then look for the ROM file that you've previously downloaded.
