Hi..
I am going to jot down points of change noticed in my Galaxy Note after ICS update.
1. Gallery
Much much faster than earlier.
Used QuickPic earlier but now no need
2. Browser
Amazingly fast loading over 3G / Wifi..
Roughly 10 times faster processing.
New neater look.
3.Contacts
Upper 5 icons are only four. Phone/Groups/Contacts/Favourites. The logs feature used to be there is gone now
4. Gmail
Amazing appearance.
Downloading attachment shows % downloaded. Very good.
30 days sync instead of custom.
Swipe to see next or previous emails.
5. Snote S memo Splanner
Everybody knows the new features
6. Task manager
Thumbnail view of recent tasks plus sliding close of the same.
7. Notification bar
6 icons now: Power saver profile added.
Individual notifications can be closed by sliding.
8. SETTINGS: SOOO MANY MAJOR CHANGES
Wifi Bluetooth can be on off using sliders.
Data usage can be controlled per month or similarly.
Bluetooth internet tethering.
Display battery percentage remaining.
Face unlock.
9. MISC
Youtube: Better interface
Applications can be disabled individually without rooting.
This will be updated regularly.
Any more additions are welcome.
You can show your current battery percentage on the upper notification bar beside the clock. For those who dont know how, check settings > display > show battery percentage.
Its a good feature compared in gingerbread as we have to use another app to show the percentage

wow,nice post!
as far as i have seen it with the new task manager (or more the screen you get when you hold the home button) is that you not only see applications that are open but also applications that are closed but were recently used.
Sliding them just removes them from the quick list as there isn't anything to close
i know you kinda wrote that too, i just wanted to clarify it for the people that might have misunderstood you with that
@boe2hoets: wow cool,didn't know that, thanks!

How are the on screen navigation buttons? (Home, search, back, menu buttons)
Do they work well? Are they too small to input?
no ,this ICS version is made specially for phones with hardware buttons, so you don't have the screen buttons like with the nexus
I have no premium suite
One question.
How come I didn't get premium suite on my Gnote?
I read in some of the forum that some didn't get the premium suite and sadly that include me.
Is there any other way to get premium suite....officialy?
I use official firmwere for my dearest Gnote and never root it.
Some say I need to hardreset my Gnote....is this true?

The premium suite is just the s note and other ics features. Thats all.

Samsung made a really nice changes document for sg2, all I could find is this manual. Anyone else found something like this?

But if you have any saved certificates (VPN logins, for example), you will have to clear them before you can enable Face Lock. After that you can re-enter them and it'll still work.

There are some kernal bug triggered after system factory restore. The effect is your sd card wouldn't be detect. In serious case it will brick your phone.

disable keyboard sound galaxy note ics typing sound?
I cant find the option to turn it off

but I actually like the stock keyboard.

For disable the type sound, you must go on setting, sound and in the end of the page you found the opzion
(I know its late) but its actually: settings> language and input then press the settings icon by the keyboard you use (eg: samsung keyboard)> advanced THEN 'key tap sounds'...:good:
Hello all!
I've been using Paranoid Android for the las 3 months, and I have to say it is one of the best most well-supported AOSP rom for N7000, so congrats to the developers and please check it out.
I just flashed back to stock official 4.1.2 because I coudn't find a way to make thr hovering icon for the spen appear on the Paranoid Android or any other AOSP rom. Without the hovering icon it's impossible to work with apps like Lecture Notes (in my opinion the best app to use with the spen).
As everybody knows non Touchwiz based roms don't have the support for the pen, but I was wondering if the hovering icon could be different (some trick on the build.prop, perhaps?). In essence, IS THERE A WAY TO ACTIVATE THE HOVERING ICON ON AOSP BASED ROMS, SUCH AS PARANOID ANDROID?
Thanks!
I'm cm 10 there is an option under language and input to show a pointer when hovering and drawing. It's the last one. Not sure about PA. Check it.

Well, couldn't stand stock firmware so I came back to paranoid. The problem now is that the option exists, but when activated (or toggled), it doesn't stay selected.
So what's happening is, I toggle that option, I go to another screen and when I come back it isn't toggled anymore.
I tried using the pen while toggling to see if the hover appears, when I click it but no it doesn't.
I'm very very frustrated.
Happened to me too with PA. But after trying for some time it worked.

Am running the galaxy gear with null rom. I installed the nova launcher and sort of gave up on that, and went back to touchwiz.
Something strange happened recently - my Setup app on the gear itself is missing. It doesnt show in the gear manager on the phone. I tried clearing the gear manager cache on the phone - but it wont show up. It used to show up as one of those black+white big icons on the main screen if you side scroll. I had reordered a few of the main icons - but setup is totally missing.
Actually - I may even be confused. Sometimes if i double-finger tap - I can get a google-style setup screen (starts with a blank screen and a funny icon on the top right). From here I can see "settings" menu - tiny font - rather than the very unfunctional original Samsung setup - which had Display/Sound/etc.
I'm confused what I am seeing really because of the launcher confusion. (I can occasionally see the wifi/BT/battery status at the top).
Its really annoying because I cant easily see the battery status (despite having set this on the setup menu to display - when I could access the setup menu); and the note in the previous paragraph - that I can see the battery status is erratic - sometimes I can see the tiny status line but never when I want to see it - to check battery status).
I have rebooted the device.
V700XXUBNA3_V700OXABNA3_OXA.zip
null_22.1
Just tried to double tap my home screen - its so erratic - no joy. I succeeded 5 mins ago.
You need to re flash null rom and select the gear set up wizard to be installed. It is one of the options you can select when flashing the rom. There may be an easier fix but worst case scenario that should solve your problem. Also if you don't want Nova you can deselect it during flashing. That screen you are seeing is like on your phone when you slide down from the top of the screen (notifications, settings, etc)

Thank you - let me try that. I remember fiddling with the options on install - so this could be the magic clue.
Cant think why one would not want setup to be installed!
I had the same issue. Ended up flashing the latest null rom which included the set up wizard. Hope this works for you too.

I installed the latest version of null and all is almost good except for one annoying problem.
When I left up my hand to look at the watch it turns on ok but it shows me the apex launcher select screen to go to.
What is wrong how can I fix this behavior?
You need to change settings in apex. Do a search and you'll find the answer
