you have been here longer than i am, so i would think that you are supposed to read and use the search functions of this forum than just wait up for answers from other people that may not come at all.
if you are afraid to root, go no further. if you take the risk, then go all the way and test all the available roms and decide which one suits your taste. it's your phone, it's your risk.... do not blame anyone if something bad happens, because if somebody answers your question "which one would you recommend" and somebody does recommend a specific rom, and you BRICKED your phone in the process... you will curse whoever gave you that suggestion.

I found Rocket Rom v22 used with franco v6 kernel very fast and stable. I got my best benchmark scores using this setup.
Now on Midnote ICS and while very smooth it doesn't have the same benchmark scores. (Not that they mean much as it feels quicker in daily use).
To sync FB pics with contacts install FB app then go to settings/accounts and sync, add FB account. It will ask you what to sync eg all contacts etc

if u r brave enough ... try rocket rom ics beta v1.5.. but be very careful while flashing.. u need to be fully rooted. If you would like to stick to gingerbread go with chechrom v5

Thanks people!! if you guys got any opinions or tips on note please let me know thanks!

and anyone know how to show percentage in the battery icon?

check the thread with the imilka ROM AOSP which has the solution for battery percentage

ROM - imilka's ICS AOSP

tried all ics roms ,,midnote has been best so far smoothness everything working was easist to flash also and stayed rooted

I won't suggest you flash ics rom as the procedures are much more complicated than flashing a gingerbread rom.

I was thinking what are the differences between stock rom and custom rom

Custom rom is generally smoother and has a better battery life than stock.

Looking for rom opinions please.

Hi guys,
So ive reached the point where its time to put a rom other than the stock rom that im currently running. Now ive looked on the forums here and can see that there are several variations floating around. Really id like opinions on what is considered a stable rom to run. I dont use my phone for anything fancy, occasionally play a game, listen to music and all the obvious stuff. Any suggestions/ opinions would be most welcome.
Many thanks
Jim

Cyanogenmod 7.Just flash it and use it.
Emanon ROM would be suitable for you; it's the closest one to stock ROM.
CyanogenMod is a completely different ROM than stock ROM; and maybe you'll have some difficulties in adapting to its features and bugs (if any).

if u like the looks and interface of stock rom use emanon rom
and if u want a completely new rom with extra features go with cm7 rom
Thanks guys, have used cm rom in the past on my x10 mini pro. So it would seem the cm7 would be the way to go! Many thanks for the input guys. I am assuming odin is the best way forward with flashing a new rom?

custom ROMs for the galmin are not flashable via Odin. Only stock ROMs can be flashed through Odin. Mininum requirement for CM7 is 2.3.4.. If you have GB 2.3.4 then you can directly flash clockworkmod recovery.

Choose ROMs from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1314
Please do follow special instructions from the Devs.. Happy Flashing!

These kind of threads will be the death of me.
They crop up every other day: an inexperienced guy asks a question, and tons of 'users' jump at the chance to start waxing lyrical about their pet roms.
Let me ask you a question: what makes you think that you know beyond a shadow of a doubt that your pet is the right one for the OP? It might be the right one for you because it suits your needs. Are you sure that the OP has the same needs?
Another thing: you have given all the roms a go, so you are informed enough to judge the merits of the particular rom compared to others? I'm as great a flashoholic as the next man here, and I haven't tried them all. I seriously doubt that you have.
The only answer to 'which is the best rom' would be something along these lines:
1. there are light roms, and there are full roms
2. light roms are light because (explanation)
3. full roms OTOH contain (explanation)
4. light GB roms are the following: (links - mind you, not one link, but links)
5. full GB roms (links)
6. repeat the above two steps for the ICS
And let the OP decide for himself.

[Q] Would like to hear your opinion

Hello guys, I'm thinking bout flashing a ICS rom to my GT-N7000, I'm thinking about trying a few, so far I've donwloaded CriskeloRomNOTE.vICS-V2 and ROMOW_V1_ICS_GT-N7000.
ATM I'm just reading how to flash them so I don't screw things up, but I'd like to hear which one you recommend?, any others I should try? (I kind of like the S-pen functions)
BTW, my note its properly rooted and with CWM. So if any of you have any advice, I'd like to hear it.
Regards from Venezuela.
I'm using ICS stunner which works really well for me..
I've tested Alba LP6, Team Rocket ROM, Liquid,Imilka CM9 and now Criskelo V2 whit LP6 modem and I'm very pleased whit its performance and battery life is good enough I really recommended its use as daily ROM, I'm very happy with my Note its the best phone I've ever have.

ROMOW hasn't had any development or updates for quite some time now.
So, if you're dead set on choosing between the two, go for Criskelo.
BTW, I'm running Stunner like most of the guys who posted here.
It's a fantastic Rom.
Hey guys, thanks for your comments. Maybe I'll go with stunner. It does look quite good.
This brings me to another question. Almost all ICS roms instalation guides tells you to flash I9220LP1-N7000-ICS-REPACK and the rom later, yet I saw a guide here that explains this won't be necessary if you flash AbyssKernel.
Based on your experiences, what would you recommend as the safest way to flash any ICS rom?
Again thanks for your answers.

Neither is very safe, heh.
But that's part of the fun.
There are always things that can go wrong, especially if you are not extra-careful when following the flashing steps.

Help needed

Hello all just picked up a note and have a few questions. When i received it, it was already rooted running an ICS rom and CF kernel 5.3. I am not sure what rom the phone is running, would I be able to unroot and restore back to stock and then flash the rom of my choice? Or can i simply flash another rom in CWR after wiping? Is there a certain kernel i need? Ive seen so many threads for bricked notes and counters and triangles...my eyes are popping. If anyone can offer any help id be very thankful. Id love my note to feel as close to my stock SG3 as possible, if anyone can recommend a rom or a method please let me know.

If you are one KL3 then you can just root your phone and flash any Rom you want...if not..you have degrade your phone to KL3 and flash on it...
I would recommend Crash...its GS3 launcher and music player...with cool animations and pretty fast too...

Really light rom with decent battery life (ics or jb)

Hi guys and girls!
Hope you are all doing well. Anyway, I rooted yesterday and am running a new kernel (speed mod k13 I believe) anyway. What I am after now, is as the title says, a light, fast rom with decent battery life. I was wondering if anyone had suggestions or experiences and could suggest something. Would a CYANOGEN from work? When I had my galaxy s I was using 7 and found it really good. But are there others?
Cheers!
Oliver

cyanogen will indeed work as will paranoid android charack,s,rocket rom if its lite you want then look for a rom with aroma installer so you can install what you want
Cheers!, really liking the look of paranoid android, especially the hybrid roms! it has been a goood while since i flashed a rom, so need to figure out what i have to do again. lol, thanks, if you can provide any tips on moving to this rom from stock ics with speedmod kernel, it would be helpful! Thanks.
Is this a decent guide to follow for paranoid android?

As long as you are on safe kernel you don't have to worry about anything or to revert back to GB. Just keep flashing rom with full wipes. Its enough for you.....
So, i am trying to back up through CWM on hydracore, it gets soooo close to the end and then says there was an error backing up the data, any ideas on what this is or a remedy for it?
I dont really want to flash a rom without doing the backup... even though in the past, i have done (old phone) is it imperritive to make a backup?

What exactly you want to backup from old rom, apps? If so then use titanium backup. I never backup whole rom as it hardly takes 15-20 minutes to setup rom if you have backup of apps.

Yes, as with any AOKP/ CM9 based rom..
There are alternative apps that could be used.
Otherwise, there are some excellent choices when it comes to Touchwiz-based roms as well.
Some are available themed to the AOKP look, if you prefer.
