4 : There is Two ways to flash pit file and then flash Android ROM. 



(( One )))  

phase "find brick"
* reboot into recovery (hold Vol-Up + Home + Power until you arrive there [20-30 seconds])
* flash 120824-151927-emmc_find_brick_start.zip , Note where it freezes -> BRICK_START
* reboot into recovery again then
*flash 120824-151927-emmc_find_brick_end.zip , Note where it freezes -> BRICK_END


phase "flash pit and ROM"
* (re)boot to download mode (hold Vol-Down + Home + Power until you arrive there [20-30 seconds], then Vol-Up)
* flash a patched PIT in Odin (( is I showed you above ))
* flash a known good ROM via Odin (especially not a faulty stock ICS ROMs)


phase "check partitions"
* reboot into recovery (hold Vol-Up + Home + Power until you arrive there [20-30 seconds])
* check the partitions >>> see section " phase "find brick "

phase "restore partitions"
* switch off the phone (something like "power off" in recovery)
* remove external sdcard (to be sure not to format it afterwards)
* boot recovery (hold Vol-Up + Home + Power until you arrive there [20-30 seconds])
* format cache
* format data* format internal SD (if it fails read below)

After formatting or wiping data you can probably also boot into the ROM and format the internal sd from there (again: keep the external sd removed, to not format the external sd instead of the internal sd unintentionally).

You should be able to flash any stock ROM from samfirmware (click on n7000 under "models"), I would recommend the one you had before the brick and and before any stock ICS, else you risk a brick again!.



(( Two ))

phase "find brick"
* reboot into recovery (hold Vol-Up + Home + Power until you arrive there [20-30 seconds])
* flash 120824-151927-emmc_find_brick_start.zip , Note where it freezes -> BRICK_START
* reboot into recovery again then
*flash 120824-151927-emmc_find_brick_end.zip , Note where it freezes -> BRICK_END



phase "flash pit and kernel"
* (re)boot to download mode (hold Vol-Down + Home + Power until you arrive there [20-30 seconds],      then Vol-Up)
* flash a patched PIT in Odin (( is I showed you above  )) 
* flash a custom kernel with a good recovery (e.g. cm9 safe kernel) via Odin (which will increment the flash counter! -> yellow triangle -> warranty lost until you reset the counter) 

phase "check partitions"
* reboot into recovery (hold Vol-Up + Home + Power until you arrive there [20-30 seconds])
* check the partitions >>> see section " phase "find brick "


phase "restore partitions"
* switch off the phone (something like "power off" in recovery)
* remove external sdcard (to be sure not to format it afterwards)
* boot into recovery (hold Vol-Up + Home + Power until you arrive there [20-30 seconds])
* format system
* format cache
* format data
* format internal SDphase "install ROM"
* install the zip of the ROM I recommend (( AllianceROM_N7000 ICS ROM )) 

phase "start ROM"
...

So you generally install the ROM like usual, the only difference is to restore all the partitions moved by the repartitioning with the patched PIT.

This is neccessary because all changed/moved partitions don't have a valid file system or content after the repartitioning.

For some partitions this can be done by a simple format (cache, data, internal sd).
Others need true contents (e.g. system, kernel, recovery can be restored by installing a rom/kernel/recovery).

In other cases (non-standard situations) you need to restore a backup (efs, if you have one) or some generic contents (param, sbl1/2).

EFS is the most critical one, because it contains information unique to your own phone. Also see the efs section in this post.

I assume SBL1/2 are needed by the boot process (secondary boot loader), but I never tested this. I don't even know where to get these boot loaders (which probably have to be installed with the PIT via odin, because they are involved in the boot process)..........
