You should Odin back to stock GB and then root again and flash a CM9 ROM build. Stable, efficient, safe, etc.

Thnx Andrew.. But I dint tried to root my note till date im afraid of rooting
Please help..

I think you can flash a stock gingerbread Rom trough Odin without it affecting the flash counter
And the 600mb ram usage doesn't affect performance... or so I'm told anyway

screen issue

I got 5 days with my note I don't know if this happens on gb because I opened the box and flashed cm9.. what is happening is the screen has great colors but it blinks from perfect color to yellowish tint and back to perfect colors.. Is this a known issue? or cm9 kernel related issue? I'm trying to find another kernel that works with cm9 but seems that most are for tw...
I need to know this cause I can use my warranty to get a new 1 but if this its a cm9 issue I will have the same with the new phone so no point on getting another 1 if I can't reproduce the issue in the store with gb stock rom/kernel

think it might me a hardware thing, im also a big fan of CM but never had the issue you described, im also on stock CM kernel.
How i go back to GB is just put it in download mode and flash GB with odin and wipe everything afterwards in stock recovery.

[Q] a trouble with gt n700 battery !!

Hi guys !
I have a trouble with my samsung galaxy note n7000 battery ..when i was on ginger bread i had nothing ... but the problem has begun since i updated to ics ...and the trouble is :"when i use my phone from 100% to 88% (just an example) and then after a while in sleep mode i see the charge level indicates to 92 .. it increases without charging!!!
" i have installed speedmod k3-13 kernel on stock rom 4.0.4 .. i did "wipe data & cash & battery stats". and nothing changed .. the problem is present till now ... and i don't have a spare battery to try it
what is the problem in your opinion ? and what about suggested solutions .. is the problem from stock rom or ???
thanks in advance ^__^
i have experienced this will almost all the phones i owned till now.. even with ipods and ipads..
if i use it excessively, the battery shows that its drained to say 50 %... then i keep it back and it sleeps and wakes up as 60%...
Try getting a new battery

mmmm ... thank you , but i always see this phrase when i want to install cm roms :
- Make sure to run CM9 or an AOSP-based ROM : FLASHING FROM STOCK ICS OR ROMS BASED ON STOCK ICS WILL RESULT IN A BRICK! - You're warned!
how can i solve it ???
Just follow the steps and steps only.you will not brick it.ok.

Try using Setcpu, set screen on time 800mhz-1400mhz :good::good:
Not much you can do about it. This is what samsung gave us with all the delays. The best advice I can give is either go back to ICS or flash something like rocket and speed mod kernel. It will be a bit faster then stock with some more features.
I did the normal steps ... rom , kernal , then the latest software ... it is good but the problem is the lag ! :/ is there a better software or sth cause when I open the ram I find it about 70% is used although not much apps are opened

I'm using the speedmod kernel k5-3, the latest from hardcore, noticed my note temperature are not so warmer while in the initial stage after flashing from ICS4.0.2 to JB 4.1.2.
Maybe you can try to flash into speedmod k5-3 to do a comparison...

Even I am using stock jelly bean 4.1.2 but there is no such problem. I suggest you flash the stock GB ROM and do the update OTA. This may take
a long time and data download but you will get all the bug and performance fix. Use stock kernel.
I suggest that you lt th Rom settle a little bit over 3-4 charging cycles. JB sure is not all that buttery smooth as we all expected but it's definitely not that laggy even.
If you installed a custom Rom please ensure that you wiped all the four- system, data, cache and preload. In case you missed any of the wipes, I would suggest you redo the installation as per the exact guidelines by the developer.
In any case the performance definitely improves after a few charging cycles.

Maybe it is best if you flash a safe kernel, do a full wipe and format system, data, cache and preload and then reflash the firmware with ODIN PC.
That is how I usually do the flashing and I don't have such an issue.
wait for PAK rom release. PAK roms are the best ever with no lag issues and almost every fix.
i got the ics late on my note but unlike he german or any other rom its bug free and lag free.
i get the highest benchmarks on my stock rom. So my advice to you is to wait till PAK update, then u can flash it.

I highly recommend you to do a factory reset. Your Note will be much better for sure. My phone was like frozen after the JB update, but it's likely been a different phone when I made the FR. No more laggy at all. The battery is still a big deal though. Remember to back up your data ( I used Titanium) ).
Try installing a suitable kernel. I also had lagging here and there but rom is working smoothly with speedmod n7000 jelly bean kernel.

Jellybean is quite bulky so it needs sometime/reboots to settle down a bit..
For caches to be created for it to become snappy and battery friendly.

I also have the lag problem with JB on the first Note.
It is not isolated.
I have the lag. My wife has it. I know several people who have it.
I have never rooted my phone. My wife could not do it if you put a gun to her head.
We upgraded to JB months ago. We upgraded over Kies on the PC.
We have used and upgraded the phone EXACTLY as At&t and Samsung demanded.
The lag has never gotten better.
I have done a Factory Data reset after upgrading to JB to see if that would help...nope.
I do use a Class 10 Sandisk card. My wife does not have a card.
To give you an idea of the lag...
Getting a call.....I might be able to slide and accept the call before it stops ringing and goes to voicemail.
Open a picture...I will have to wait at least 10-15 seconds..if I am lucky.
Sometimes a web page is quick..other times it takes so long that I lose interest.
I have seen the phone just basically laugh at the idea that I expect to use GPS and just lock up.
Add music to the phone...if I do it tonight, I will see it available by morning.
There is no single app that seems to be the trouble and there does not appear to be a heavy load.
At this point I have lost all faith in Samsung, At&t and this piece of ca$p phone.
I have never downloaded anything that was not on Google Play. Neither has my wife.
Say what you will about the apple boys,...their upgrades actually make for a better experience..not this.
@lottathought are you using the Galaxy Note GT-N7000 or the Galaxy Note i777? If you're using the i777 then you can try out CM which should be in pretty good shape...

In the "about phone" part of settings, it says I have the SGH-I717
I actually thought about going the CM route. The only thing is that I used CM on my son's Tf101 Asus tablet when I upgraded it to JB.
It seems a little stripped down and some features were missing.
My wife Note also has laggy issues ever since the phine was upgraded to JB thru Kies. Now she's bugging me to get her the Note 3. Arrgghh!!!
Is there anyway I can resolve this or else I'm downgrading the phone to ICS, as a last resort.
Pls advice.

Backup everything (messages, call logs, apps, videos, downloads - everything). Once that is done then boot to a custom recovery and format everything you can see:
/system
/data
/emmc
/sdcard
/.android_secure
and any others that you see
After that then clear the cache and dalvik cache, once that is done, connect your phone to your computer to copy a custom ROM. Flash it, let it boot, restart and flash coh kernel.
That is for TW if you want a really clean start, try to keep as little files as possible. Use greenify, freeze/uninstall apps that you don't use.
Alternatively you can go the CM way. Same instructions just flash instead of a TW ROM then flash a CM ROM and Raw Kernel r3.

You can try this. Do a factory reset , flash cocore kernel , root you phone and install Lagfix app from playstore. I do it all with my phone and it work!
Or youcan try other firmware , India firmware is a good firmware to try

Try the Indian firmware. Warranty stays if you use official Samsung signed firmwares.
Also, go to developer options, scroll to the very bottom and limit background processes to 2.

Unroot is done simply by flashing stock FW again, and voila - no root. So he do not need to affraid of that.
I'm having the same issue with the Polish firmware. Jelly Bean was advertised as being faster and smoother but after updating from 2.3.6 to 4.1.2 via Kies my phone became really laggy (menu animations are choppy as hell, some apps like the phone one take up to 3 seconds to start up) and occasionally there are some really annoying lock-ups where the phone becomes completely unresponsive for 1-2 min. I tried doing a factory reset but that didn't do much. Overall I'm really disappointed with the official 4.1.2 update. Will rooting my phone and installing a custom core like CoCore help in a noticeable way?

Yes,imo after installing CoCore,there will be a definite lag reduction. Much smoother.Dialer may still take time to open though.. for that you can use third party apps like exdialer which is much faster..

Hi all I upgraded my phone to Jellybean. I cleared all the data and cache after updating via Recovery. But the phone is laggy as hell. It just freezes if you open more than application. Screen becomes unresponsive. The apps that I have moved to SD card disappear from homescreen if you reatart the phone. Really very annoyed with the update. Gingerbread was butter smooth. Now I want your opinion. Should I go back to GB or should root it and install a custom kernel? Please help.

The guide is in cocore's thread and here. Please do search and read in the future.
I stayed with JB six months thinking it is better than Gingerbread even if it has lags like these.Then,I went to a friend,who has a crappy galaxy mini turbo.I was really shocked that it had less lag and opened apps like camera faster.It has Gingerbread.
Today,I'm waiting to charge my phone,then I'll downgrade to Gingerbread.I may never come back until Cyanogenmod will be (almost) stable.
Good-bye JB!
^ Nah. Stock JB will all bloatware removed(fb,G+, samsung app store etc.) with Cocore 6.8 CWM is pretty smooth for me.

Stock JB, yes. CM10.1, not at all, never had a snappier, smoother phone than that. Once video recording/OMX gets fixed, that's the endgame for our phone!
In the meantime, try polish XXLQE (the odin package weights only 437MB, it's the smallest I've come across so far... I suppose that means it has the least bloatware) + cocore 6.8 + the latest crossbreeder, all on a clean base (all the wipes from the advanced menu in cwm, except the sd-card, of course)
Don't forget to debloat, there's a lot of samsung crap that isn't needed... there's also a lot more stuff that isn't needed if you don't use it (G+ app, google's music app, etc, from this point onwards it's a matter of one's preferences). Greenify all those pesky apps that don't behave themselves and eat a lot of battery (facebook messenger, I'm looking at you, among others)
Give that combo a try and see if it's still laggy. For me, it's rare for my phone to lag/stutter in a way that's irritating... Yes, it's a lot of work but samsung's crappy JB can be made to work and go along... Once it's all done, you CWM backup it and you can forget it.

Both of these ROMs are not even functional (hardware acceleration.and camera do not work) and in my opinion are no way as smooth and fast as GB.

It functions well but you just can't play hd videos or games. That's all. And camera works only video doesn't. That's pretty good for me. It's just a phone and I don't really play games and watch movies on phone. better do that kind of things on pc

Hey!, you're wrong. I was unsure if flash JB or not, because of people like you saying JB it's laggy.
I flashed LQG (Italy) + deodex + zipalign. It was pretty smooth, but lags a little when playing games. So I flashed CoCore 6.8 and now it works like a charm, no lag at all. So please say it's laggy for YOU, not for all of us.
