[Q] How is 2.3.7?

2.3.7 was out on September 20 -- why nothing about it here? Anyone tried it already?
P.S. I am not happy with my 2.3.4, XXJVP at all. It hangs, com.adroid.phone keeps crashing, phone is not much responsive and it all gets only worse and worse over the time. Now I am thinking, should I look towards 2.3.7 or should I wait until 4.0 comes? However, I guess 4.0 will come to I9000 with a significant delay, right?

Why not try 2.3.5?

Source? Imho 2.3.5 for I9000 is the latest available version - even for the nexus, just 2.3.6 is available...

btw, I didn't say 2.3.7 for I9000. Here is the German article mentioned from German wikipedia about Android:
http://www.appdated.de/2011/09/nexus-s-4g-bekommt-android-2-3-7-update-fur-google-wallet/
Then it comes down to this promo video:

I can't find more details to be honest

CM7 is 2.3.7. coz is build from nexus sources ... and i thing there is nothing extra for i9000 users ... we dont have NFC chip ....

btw, what about "No tethering" bug / feature in this 2.3.7 ?

These updates hardly matter.We already have few ROMs of 2.3.5
Now we want ICS....and our device is very capable of running it

I don't build any illusions regarding Samsung's official releases. They are rather out of scope until Summer 2012 ;-) No joke, SAMSUNG sux big big big time on rolling out updates.
My concern are ROMs that are created by community heros. When'd you expect such?

I agree to some of your point but telling that samsung sucks in update is incorrect.Galaxy S has got updates more frequenty than any other android phone.We already have 2.3.5 leaked stock firmware and in comming days u will some 2.3.6 updates as well.Comming to other brands,take example of htc,they are still on 2.3.4.Motorola donot give more than 1 update to phones and forget about LG(they think that customers must be deprived of updated,so that they can ultimatly sell thier mobile industry)

I think we will have to use CM7 to get a taste of 2.3.7...

OK, and what are your bets about availability date for ICS on I9000 ?
(unofficially of course, there is no much sense to discuss official one)
UPDATE: OK, I'll try CM7 with its 2.3.7 and that's it. It will probably heal my SGS for next months ...or will brick it

After being hesitant for a while ( losing the whole samsung apps/feel ) ive finally made the jump to CM7. I must say its really stable and smooth, its packed with lots of options and tweaks .. so far im simply loving it. I think my search for the best custom ROM is done .
Btw, Cyanogen mod 7.1 is out for the i9000, which is considered as the first "stable" version to run on the i9000.
Also, im pretty sure cyanogen will get us ICS way before Samsung does.

I cannot really bet but after Nexus s recived ICS then it will hardly take 15-30 days for devlopers to port ICS to galaxy s because both nexus s and galaxy s is running same hardware except camera chip.

Well from what I understand, manufacturers are not required to release android updates to devices which are older than 18months. Anyone know the exact launch date of the sgs? So I guess it depends what the age of the sgs is by the time ICS is released. Even if we don't get the official ICS, I'm not so sure whether we will get it through cyanogen due to the sgs ram limitation. From 2.1 to 2.3 the average amount of free ram on the sgs has come down quite a lot, to a point where through average use you can end up in a situation with only 30mb free ram (depending on your rom and kernel and what apps and Widgets you use) after a days use. ICS will obviously have even higher memory demands than gingerbread, so the ICS experience on a sgs if it is provided unnofically by cyangoen may not be very smooth and user friendly.
That's just my opinion though, I'm no expert! And obviously I'd love for us to get ICS on the sgs

The most stable version I experienced till now is XXJPY. I'm using it for more than 2 months with no problem.

I guess the only way I'll ever use the new version will be through a ROM, probably same for many other people in here.

[Q] Which is the most stable rom for Galaxy Note

One of my friends wants me to root and flash a new rom to their Note but I have no idea which rom (ICS or GB) is the best.
Now before anyone flames me I just want to ask your opinions on the latest developments. Clearly I am asking for opinions. I also do not currently have this device.
Sent from CM9 Cornerstone Transformer TF101 using Tapatalk

Rocket gb is the most stable.

All GB Roms are very stable, and you won't go wrong if you flash any of them.
OTOH, ICS is not so stable and requires high user maintenance and fixing. I'd stay away from early ICS releases if I were you.

Cool thanks. Any recommended Rom aside from the one mentioned before as in what makes you go to it. I do understand about AOSP Roms and how unstable they can be in the beginning. Also is anyone planning to port CM9 to the note?
Sent from my Infected Galaxy Y using Tapatalk

Maui is one taking care of CM9 port.. as of now there is no official leak yet. so once the leak is out then the development ll begin and the ROM ll be in hands soon.

Well, basically there are two types of custom GB roms ATM.
1. Light ones (much of the Samsung and other crapware removed)
They are fast and battery efficient. Some users don't like them because of the missing features. I prefer them, though: anything you need can be installed after flashing.
The light Roms are
Cassie's XL
Chrack's Small
2. Full Roms containg almost everything a stock Rom has
These Roms are somewhat (but not much) slower than the light ones, and their batter life can be slightly shorter if you do not monitor what your multitude of apps is doing behind your back, if you get my drift.
You'll find a full list of Note Roms with links here:

As I said before this isn't for me I personally don't have a note but am doing this for a friend and I know aosp ics is a little too unstable on anything for me to flash it to a device that I don't own. So that being said I will probably stick with gb unless they really want ics.

If your friend doesn't even know how to root and flash, then advise him/her that ICS is not the way to go. Otherwise you'll get bugged to death with requests to fix this and that.

Ya like i said not my Note so i dont wanna experiment. Not to say i havent thought about Miui. I do however need something as rock solid as possible.
To be truthful both of your notes are bigger than mine coz i dont have one.
That being said my transformer does run CM9 and Cornerstone.

+1 and given that lg didn't do a very good job with gingerbread i think the best hopes we have are here by the members that are really trying to deliver a full working ics port.and i guess it would be even better than official half ported release from our beloved lg.

Yep, its true, but im pretty sure we will get some ics roms based, i dont mean theme, i mean ICS based, so just wait

Just wait a little more (maybe 2-3 months) before getting a "stable" ICS rom ported by our amazing devs! The development progress of the rom is super quick! Yesterday it was just released and now it's already at alpha 4! At this rate ICS will be for very soon, definitely sooner than LG's ICS lol.

Hi, Sure... But when???

Here in Sweden we just got 4.1.2. So i assume we have some monts of waiting.. :laugh:

Android 5.0 Key Lime Pie will be revealed for the new Google Phone during Google I/O in May 2013.
So hope to get the 4.2 in May.

Exact but it is not small differences between the 4.1.2 and the 4.2..So i prefer to update direct to 5.0

Hi,

Now there is both CM10.1 in alpha and a RC of LiquidSmooth.
None of them is perfect yet, but with the speed of development the last couple of weeks I think its just a matter of days.

As mentioned in the previous posts, yea there are roms for 4.2.1/2 already! like CM10.1 and Liquidsmooth (4.2.2)
Personally I would say go for LiquidSmooth. For now, it has better support and lesser bugs

I've tried Android 4.2.1 with CM mod but it's a little bit disappointing. I can't see any real useful changes so far.

Hi victorator,
If you can pull this off mate, you will be a LEGEND!!!!
I too am after summit like this, and I have trailled all over the forums trying to find ANY kind of GB rom that I can flash/install via CWM.
But so far all the links are either dead, or point towards viruses now!!!
If you can make a clean CM7, or know any decent GB roms that I can look into and rip parts of the TW out... that would be AMAZING!!!!
Good luck, really hoping you can do this!!!
Cheers, Lister

Good luck mate !

I'd love to see CM7 on Note and remind old gingerbread times
Good luck! Hope you'll make it!

Hi @victorator,
Is there any development, news on this pure CM7 rom for our Note's???
I know your working hard on newer roms, but would be cool to have a retro rom too.. Especially as I gained my Note later on, so missed out on all the Gingerbread roms... and having loved CM7 on my ZTE Blade. Would be cool to see what its like on N7000 too...
Good luck, hope all is well...

Hey man,
I'm sorry but I don't think I will be able to get CM7 running. Back in the day CM used a prebuilt kernel file. That's why I won't be able to compile it myself as they haven't put out the kernel for it.
I would love to give CM7 a go on the note as well but I don't have enough knowledge on the subject to get it to work.

Hi All,
Still think this would be an awesome feat, if ever it did come to our Notes. Sure it's old, sure... No one will prolly use it much afterwards anyway...
But heck, a lot of us grew up on what was the first main CM build (excluding CM6?? lol) aka, CM7 (Gingerbread).
Does anyone have the skills to help @victorator or others, get past the kernel issue and help build a CM7 rom. Apparently (although cannot confirm myself) that the S2 phone had a CM7, and "apparently" similar hardware...
Anyone got the know-how, to make this happen....??
Thanks, Lister

Main thing would be the kernel
