It is impossible for all of us to have stock ICS on our Notes, since it hasn't been released yet.
But don't lose hope, the initial release is expected within a month or so.

But yout do lose s-pen with cm9!

I don't have a note, but we can do this on any other touchwiz device I've ever tried. Go to settings -> applications -> all -> twlauncher -> clear defaults. Then when you press the home button, it should give you a choice of launchers, one of which is the reg Google launcher. I'm currently using that I'm my leak build of ics for the epic touch. So I assure you, when they release it for the note, it will be possible.

or its quite possible that it just isnt available on the note like it is on other devices

my "clear defaults" button is greyed out...

I can confirm you only get tw launcher with the note. But you should be able to download the gingerbread launcher apk and install it on the note. Then jut uninstall the tw launcher.

in this case which one will be faster?

[Q]Root stock ICS 4.0.4.

Hi there,
I want to ask you all how do I root my stock ICS without installing other custom roms. I just need the stock to be rooted for me to install titanium back up and unroot it after the Jellybean official arrived.
I am having a lot of problem with game save files import and export. Cause most of the game save saved locally on phone.
Any help would be grateful!

Go through Dr.Ketan's guide..you will get to know everything about rooting.
I did the same thing when I first rooted my phone. Just rooted the stock ICS & was using it. So, under development section, you will find the kernel thread in which you will see Philz kernel. Select the one which is for your ICS version & flash it via PC Odin

just install the philz kernel using recovery and you will get root.

If I want to restore back to stock kernel, what should I do? flash stock kernel again?

Use Exynos Abuse.
It will work on ICS firmware only. (Not GIngerbread)

Its the safest, easiest and quickest method to root.

I just updated thru Kies in Hong Kong, to 4.04 JB. I tried to use the camera and I had an alert blocking the camera screen and a message bar as follows "Tap and hold shortcuts to edit them. Also combined with it where the OK button was was a text box with the words scanning media in it.
Now, its working after I played with it, first I reboot, that didn't help. Then I accidentally put it into third party mode but hit the up volume to get out of it before it went into download mode. It started to reboot but I held the up-vol, home and on button until it went to the rest screen. I tried to just wipe the cache, but it didn't do anything, moving the selector up and down worked, I tried wiping cache again, no luck, so I just reboot. After rebooting I laid the phone down and started to look for a solution in here. So I go to try the camera again to get the alert message it had, and
Wha La, the darn camera started working right, the alert blocking the screen was gone, it came up as usual for a new triggering, but it accepted my selection when I told it ok and then it went away as usual, computers, micro-processors, no matter what kind, if you have problems, some times just a long shut down to clear the electronic memory will also clear the problems.

[Q] Changing status bar color?

Looking for an app or theme to change my ICS stock status bar icons color to blue or other strong color to be easy to read for old people:crying:
as in pic.
Edit : found : ICS Blue Omega StatusBar and colored Themes, but not liking it, any one can recommend another one ?

You can do them manually by editing the system UI and changing some settings.. but you need to be rooted for that.. or yes PA is a custom rom which has feature of changing status bar color and icons

Do you have cwm recovery ? Backup, wipe, flash rom+gapps zips. Reboot.
If u dont have cwm recovery flash a recovery image using odin or heimdall.
Dont know how to do that? Search/google.

[Q] Build-in torch not working properly

Widget torch stops working after using camera with flash. To make it work again you need to either delete "broken" shortcut from main screen and established new one or reset your phone pushing poweroff button for about 8 seconds. Is there any improvement for this soft or you have other solutions?

You could try another flashlight app. A good one I've tried before is TeslaLED, has more functionalities than the stock one and I noticed it worked when the stock one didn't (like with some custom kernels/ROMs).

Mine does the same thing 4.0.4 LRT, stock kernel, rooted.

I know that but stock flashlight is very covinient for me - especially with three levels of brightness. Still I think I will live with that until another update.

No comments? FIRST TROLOLO
I'll test and report any bugs
Edit. So far so good, this ROM is different which is a really good thing! Those list animations, Sense/iOs7 like recent apps and everything is just wonderful! I have few things that I didn't like and hope you will fix them:
1) The keyboard is English/Korean, could you change it to official Google Keyboard so that there's no Korea mode always on and so that there are other languages (because now there are no Finnish letters "ä", "ö" and "å"!).
2) the recents panel. If I'm in browser and long press home button to get to the recents panel, it won't show the browser in recents like it should. Also either make the small pictures larger or make it so that I can see more recent apps at once!
Also a feature request: can you add different transition animations?
Awesome ROM, keep up the good work and I hope you'll work on those things I said above
Edit2. Funny, settings says that my phone is suddenly SHW-M440S (the Korean version of S3) instead of GT-I9300. Hmm...

That will be the kernel's problem.
If you are running a custom kernel, try another kernel that ONLY supports cm 10.1 NOT cm 10.2
The kernel's ramdisk init.rc is the blame.
