if you change the language in system settings it should change all into the desired language.... not too sure abt 3rd party apps tho but i reckon some will change too....
correction to your above sentence you dont use a rom to root.... you root first then flash a rom. you can root using the methods stated in Nooby's thread
for OB now we have quite a couple of custom roms check
Noobys thread
and now i see there is another new one based on GB called "LEZO Rom" but am not too sure abt the language support on that one
the Cyanogen rom is still a nightly so unless you know how to muck ard with your phone id recommend you wait till they have a stable release.
or alternatively after root you could just remove non important apps and see how it goes from there first (that's what i did =P) a list of stock apps which are safe to remove can be found here
hope this helps..... oh and give thanks to the OP of the individual threads =)

Hi,
Thanks for all this information, i has seen this nooby post, help a lot.
Still CyanogenMod is a nightly rom, i think there are no big problems to use it.
I hope, that the ICS come soon to our phone; so i think its better that use a custom rom.
Thanks again.

Hello and if I postet this thread in a wrong way, do not be mad at me....
I have 2 Questions that I could not find a good answer (maybe I didn't searched enough ...)
1. WHAT IS THE BEST CUSTOM ROM for the OB?
In the last period, the nightly CM reached no 61.... does anyone installed it? how is it? I wanna know if there are other roms that are stable...or, if the 61 from CM is ok. I am using GPS, 3G connection, Bluetooth, WiFi constantly on my phone and I wanna install a ROM that is most stable (in special at these things...)
2. DOES THE KDZU STILL WORKING?
I found some posts, that says the KDZU is blocked somehow from the LG Guys... is it true? Does someone installed lately a ROM with KDZ ? It worked?
I now am on V20N ... how can I install a CM Rom? I have to downgrade to V10 versions? If yes, HOW? With KDZU?
In the last lines, i wanna thanks all of U guys, for the good work U R doing, sorry 4 my english and one more thing:
If I have the V20N version installed, when the official update will be available in my country (Romania - Orange) will the LG Update Suport notice me? and, will I be able to install it via LG Update?
Thanks and, sorry for the lenght of my post.
Less posting, more thinking would be nice. Serach smartflash optimus black, cyanogen discussion thread, v20 romania orange and all other things u need, put em in to search (it s on the top right, if you havent foind it yet) oh and r&d testtool could be interesting. And now start reading.

Ok, just a short reply. Use smartflash to flash back to v10a http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1448803

Hi all,
Currently I've rooted (CF-Root) my phone,
PDA : N7000DDLB2
PHONE : N7000DDLB1
CSC : N7000DDLA1
I need to upgrade to an ICS ROM (with root). Please direct me to a proper guide
I Followed this guide. It's really a simple guide for anyone .
I've purchased mobile Odin Pro. Can I use it with ICS as well ?
YES. I Can .
Can I switch back to my CF-Rooted GB again (I've CWM backups) ?

Yes, There are many guides and ROMs available in development section. But I'm new to ICS flashing. I need a proper guide that starts from the beginning.

Tip, do not flash after that a custom ics. Stock is far the best. And the real thing is comming very soon.
ICS Repack Problems
Hi all,
I managed to flash ICS Repack by Chainfire on my galaxy note today. It is pretty cool and really fast. But I've few questions to ask regarding this new ROM. Please be kind enough to direct me to a appropriate thread if these questions are already been asked and solved.
After I flash ICS Repack, I cannot find CWM anymore. What happened to it ? and how I can get it back ?
How I can go back to my old GB rooted ROM (I've CW backup of that rooted LB2 GB ROM) ?
By now, this ICS version cannot render South Asian languages. but LB2 rendered it very well. Are there any option to get that language support on this ICS ?
I need to change this Keyboard (Chinese) to English. Any other method to change it (Instead of installing GO Keyboard) ?
In our county phone numbers have two formats (our numbers are start with "0" but receiving calls don't have that starting "0" ). But in this ICS ROM, those 2 numbers are Identifying as two different numbers. Any method to fix that issue ?
Can I get my CPU speed to 1.4GHz again ?
Please be kind enough to help me on these matters.
Thank You.
This is why users should study BEFORE they flash. Anyways. Flash CWM, boot it, resrore backup. Cant help you much. Just got my Note happy studying

Thanks ... !!!
Stick with GB for now...people working with ICS around here like to make you jump through hoops just to get your phone to work...so if you're not will to spend the time on it, then stick with GB...no fuss, no muss.
The answer to 3. is a very simple 'yes, you can always go back'.
Also, massive thanks for updating your OP with the answers you have found. If only all question-askers did this.
Firstly I apologize as I have found this being asked before, but not in these circumstances. I am new to android being a long time iphone user. I now have a N7000 that I used PC Odin to flash LPY. I have noticed all of the concerns over bricking and with my lack of knowledge I am thinking I should flash a custom rom to avoid these issues.
My question is which is a good rom to go with, ICS (Such as kingdroid 2.0 or something GB?) More accurately what is the best process? I am currently not rooted. I am ignorant to android and I have noticed a steep learning curve making the transition. I explain this to help understand why I am asking this question.
I have attempted to search, and I have browsed Dr. Ketan's thread, and I still cant find a good answer. I just don't want to have a bricked phone trying to get to a custom rom. Any help or suggestions is highly appreciated.
Should I root it first then use CWM to switch to another rom?
What custom roms are recommended for easy use out of the box?
Another quite simple question is if I saved all of my contacts to google are they currently synced, as in if I switch to another rom they will still be accessible?

What I would do if I were in your place: I'd revert to rooted GB like this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=25285584&postcount=3
then I'd flash one of the CM9-based Roms, because they are the only truly safe ICS Roms ATM, and these are
1. official CM9
2. Asylum
3. Paranoid
4. MIUI
5. KANG
Also, your contacts are safe with Google, and you can restore them in no time at all.

Thanks for your response, when you say revert to a rooted GB is that the process through PC odin? Also does it need to be one of the safe roms? It seems the problem stems from a wiping command?
Hello!
Yes , use pc odin to revert back to gb, i did so, i used an prerooted stock gb .
Then follow chasmodos guides to go to ics again.
One more thing, to back up my apps so they are there on the new rom do I have to be rooted?

yes !! to use app like Titanium Backup !
or since you probably downloaded all apps from Google Play Market
then when u install your new firmware/rom you can simply download all of them from google play(but u lose the data of those apps )

To uninstall apps, you need root. To get root, you need to read my noob-how-to. To have better speed, you need another ROM, like Zeus, to get a custom ROM, you need root, to get root see above So if you have a custom ROM then, like Zeus, most useless apps will be uninstalled, but can be restored, if you need them. Come back if you have any questions left
