Hiya
Was thinking of reverting back to stock ICS 4.0.4 but with all the unsafe kernel stuff going on I was wondering, what is the best way to proceed?
I want to revert because I feel that the stock rom was overall more stable and always "worked", but I dont want to brick my phone and I'd like to be able to change rom if something better comes along
Currently im running the stable GT n7000 release from cynagenmod, with CWM 6.0.1.0
So any pointers?

If your on ics better be in safekernel like notecore, speedmod, or goku.
Flash gb rom first and do the 3 wiping before flashing the ics, use pc odin. This is clean install, its the best way before installing an ics.
Just flash ics using pc odin.
And dont forget to be on safe kernel after flash.

As mentioned. Above.
Any kind soul can help?
No safe kernel that I know of ATM.
CF-Root could perhaps work, but it's unsafe.
CM9 kernel probably wouldn't get you past the reboot stage.
Franco v3 and SpeedMod (both ICS kernels) are designed for TW-based Roms,
therfeore probably useless for Stunner.
If you like Stunner more than you are afraid of the superbrick scenario, then stay
with it, but don't do any wipes/resets. Wait for Neo to return and develop it
further in a safe direction.
If you're too scared to stick to Stunner, go back to GB using PC Odin, get
root, and move on.
agree with you chasmodo, im on Stunner too... still stick with stunner and just waiting for neobuddy comeback with safe method to work around on stunner on eMMC bug and for sure neo will provided update on out beloved Stunner.
read some user try another ROM and return back to Stunner at last. Stunner still 1 of the best ROM ever made for GNote
Stunner version. 19 next fo stock with speedmod is also most battery efficient compared to other roms.

Hi guys - i went from ics stunner to stock ics - bit bored of it to be honest! So - love the look of paranoid android - with mixed tablet/phone mode - can you advise on what I need to do? Do i need to flash back to gingerbread (if so, which rom?) then obviously I gather I need to root - this all seems much more difficut than when I rooted to go to ICS Stunner and frankly i'm a bit confused!
any help MUCH appreciated.
Here, check this
Best of luck
actually its simpler than it sounds.
Flashed a Gingerbread rom - prerooted.
then put the files on the SD card and installed from recovery.
Painless - and Paranoid is superb - everything I liked about ICS Stunner but better.
ics to gb
well..iam on stock ics as well ..how to get back to gb ..should i use pc odin for that just as i did when upgrating to ics?

is it possible to get pressure sensitivity back on paranoid?
edit: nvm. it probably isn't. =.='
Hi all,
I am on LQ3 with Speedmod K3 Kernel and root.
If I want to try out ParanoidAndroid, is it possible to flash a CM9 kernel (like T**r) via CWM, then flash PA (and then wipe both caches and full reset)?
Or, do I still need to flash a GB rom and kernel and then flash PA?
I think the reason for flashing to GB is because CWM is not safe on the stock ICS kernel, but since I'm on Speedmod, that isn't a problem for me.
Or, is there another reason you need to go back to GB?
thanks,
Rich.
Once you go paranoid uts a straight trip to the asylum lmao

The Devs post those instructions for a reason dude.They have tested the methods and only then posted those instructions.If there is a shorter way,they would have surely posted that instead of the longer roundabout way.Also, I think there was a post somewhere mentioning not to go to the CM9 kernel straight from LQ3....but I've forgotten where it was/is .
Best way is to go back to GB and then flash PA---15 minutes extra vs risking bricking your phone----you do the math
Hello everyone!!
Just a quick question for everyone here. I purchased my note a couple months and it came rooted with Paranoid. Since then I have tried a whole lot of roms since then. But they all seem to lag at one point. Even with OC
My work phone is a Galaxy S2. With the ICS upgrade from Bell, the phone is a rocket. Bone stock, battery life is great and the Quadrant results are fantastic.
If stock ICS is faster, smoother, and overall better experience, how would I go about installing it? I'm assuming Odin, and Sammobile.com. But what files should I be searching for? Can I install any .tar file? Im more worried about getting English on the phone after I install ICS from another country lol.
Im familiar with CWM. But not too familiar with Odin yet. I just want to make sure I get the right files.
Don't try anything with Odin and or stock ics roms as you can get a unsafe kernel and brick your phone.. Most likely you can flash with cwm every rom in dev section.. Try cyanogenmod9 its awesome.. And buttery smooth

Stock ICS is not smoother, faster and more stable it just seems so because of touchwiz's stmooth performance.(Also, if stock ICS was a better experience then nobody would be searching and making custom ROMs ) CM9 is much better and is more stable too.
Also it's better to stay away from stock ICS as it may come with an unsafe kernel--rather it will come with an unsafe kernel, as the guy above said.Anyways, that's just my my opinion.
If you wanna install a stock ICS rom, I'd go about flashing a stock GB ROM and then flashing the stock ICS ROM using Kies.For stock GB roms, check out dr.ketan's thread.
Hi,
I'm currently on stock ICS (4.0.4).
My phone has recently started occasionally/randomly restarting itself.
I've read that doing a factory reset or data wipe will result in a brick so was thinking of switching to a custom rom.
What's the best Jelly Bean rom? or isn't there a good stable one?
If not then what's the best stable/usable ICS rom and how do I get there from stock?
I know I need to flash GB via pc odin, but what after that?
There are warnings that say "FLASHING FROM STOCK ICS OR ROMS BASED ON STOCK ICS WILL RESULT IN A BRICK!"
I just wanna be as clear as possible. Would hate to have a brick.
Thanks.

JB roms are still in development and not so stable for daily use yet. For flashing custom ICS you do not have to flash GB rom, just flash safe custom ICS kernel and flash custom rom through cwm recovery.
You can also wipe your current rom after flashing safe custom kernel. No need to flash custom rom just because you cannot wipe on stock kernel
For my personal of view, liquid smooth jb v2.0 beta is the best at the moment.
If you on rooted ics. You can flash jb rom thru safe kernel such as cm9 kernel, gb kernel or notecore kernel.
But please read carefully and understand what noted at op and follow the installation method.
Good luck.

ok I see.
So I need to go from Stock ICS > Safe ICS > Custom ROM
Have you guys got a link to an easy tutorial?
Thanks

Never Never Wipe on ICS as stated in op.
Now everybody knows JB is still under development and in preview. So I think you should have to wait for a stable version to enjoy the juice
For ICS you can try Cleanote v5,Kingdroid or RR for better performance and battery life
Here are the links :-
Cleanote v5 ---> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1716088
Rocket Rom ----> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1654838

Hope it Helps

Here is the best thread for rooting and flashing custom kernel on Note- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1329360
Once you are rooted and on safe custom kernel you can follow the instructions on your chosen custom rom OP.
In terms of safer installation method. It have too many of opinions around note forum. Some will say flash any rom or nandroid by using abssy 4.2 kernel, some will say not neccesary to use abssy 4.2 kernel with the secure and safe kernel exists such as notecore and speedmod kernel.
Some will advice you must go back gb before flash cm base rom and some will tell you totally bull**** and not neccesary to go back gb before flash cm base rom with secure tw kernel around.
Confuse? For me, all of them have the right opinion and nothing wrong with them. Thats your own smartphone which cost about usd 500. If you scare of something, just follow the long installation method. If you feel lazy to take do such of long intallation step, you can always use the secure kernel to swap in between gb, tw and cm base rom.
But anyway, is your own asset, your own choice. You are the one who will take full responsibility for doing any modification, rooting and flashing. Not anyone else here.
You can always refer dr.ketan advice.

Thanks everyone.
I will follow all your advice when I'm ready flash the rom. Most likely tomorrow.
I would click the thanks button for you all but I am "limited to 8 thanks per day"
Thanks again.

Simpler if you are on warranty and you can make use of it and off you don't want to flash or to scared to do a flash then wipe if the phone bricks you can send it on ssc for repair on warranty.
