The principle difference between CM9 and all other ICS releases is that CM9 contains a safe custom kernel.
Everything else ICS-based uses leaked LP1, LP5 and LP6 kernels which can potentially brick or harm your phone.
However, there are two CM9 Roms here in Development:
imilka's CM9 (discontinued, coming with unreliable kernel)
official CM9 (safe)

And speedwise? Is the latest (build 3) as fast / faster than ics stunner ? Thanks btw for the fast and helpfull replies!

CM9 is every bit as fast as Stunner IMO, but has a bit less customization features.

As I understand it, it was built using SGS2 sources.
And it runs wonderfully, Brocky, I can tell you that.

Yes, you can change the DPI to 213 or less from the settings, reboot and have your nice little tablet.

I just read about the danger of leaked kernels :
If you are running an affected kernel:
STOP USING IT IMMEDIATELY. FLASH A SAFE KERNEL USING ODIN/HEIMDALL.
DO NOT wipe in recovery
DO NOT flash anything else in recovery
In general, DO NOT use recovery at all
I'm on ics stunner 1.4.26.1 with the leaked kernel stated below and want to go to cm9 but i read this :
- DON'T flash FROM i9220 LEAKED REPACK!
So can somebody explain what i need to flash before i can flash cm9 ??

You need to flash a stock GB ROM using PC Odin exclusively
And after wards root and install cm9 via cwm
N.B :if you use your stunner recovery for any sort of flash or wipe ,you'll risk bricking your phone
So please use PC ODIN to return to GB

does anyone has a link for a GB rom that is usable with odin??

Yes sorry, I wont again
Anyhow I was wondering if one of them ported their kernels already to ICS, as chainfire did. I felt pretty comfortable woth Abyss' one...

As said earlier, they are completely safe to flash. All of them contain custom CM9 kernel built using the safe SGS2 source code.

[Q] Best ICS ROM???

What is the best ice cream sandwich rom with/without best battery life ever created, modified or developed.

IMO it's the KingDroid ICS NoteMania Edition v1.6 TouchWizz UX. It is very fast and beautiful, it also has the Google play apps and the s-pen ones.

There is nothing called the best rom.It really depends on what features you want and with what rom you feel comfortable.As of now,you have the following options for safe ICS roms
1.CyanogenMod9
2.Asylum ICS
3.MiUi
4.ParanoidAndroid.
5.And other ASOP/AKOP roms build on cm9.
The roms other than above are built on lp1,lp5,lpy or lpf F/W which has the potential to brick your phone.

what is KingDroid based on??

If you flash Kingdroid, would you lose any of the S-Pen functionality? I've heard it does :S

I am using Galaxy Note for a long time. I was always far to the custom roms since they have various bugs mostly. But after a long time I changed my mind when i see the Paranoid Android rom. It is really cool with its Tablet/Phone hybrid functions and views. I can easily say that it is really smoother then the official ICS roms. And the battery, performance, speed, stability etc everything is just fine.
Maybe you can give a shot on this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1662802
by the way it is a CM9 based rom and it is safe to use (doesnt have the brick bug)

then flash downloaded zip files of paranoidandroid(then google apps) or kingdroid.

Miui is the most beautiful rom in my opinion
It has additional features and a great battery life.

The advice Ayush770 should be ported over to development for the unsure, noobs or just need a plain straight method.
My preference is CM9, any ROM no matter how good that has a PINK unicorn (angry looking or not) & message's you your a jerk when you disable said PINK unicorn...........well you decide!

Using Kingdroid NoteMania v3 with Speedmod kernel #k3-3.
S-Pen works great and so does all S-Pen enhanced apps
Battery life is good. Single charge gets me through the day with Exchange push mail, Gmail, Skype and Plume running all the time
Speed is fast. Of course, after you flash Speedmod kernel, it takes some time to settle down. Initially it may lag but as you use it and it creates the dalvik cache, it gets faster
TouchWiz5 is better than TW4 though I use NovaLauncher. There is no lag in either but I like the clean look of Nova over TW
Replaced Samsung Email with AOSP Email client and Samsung Messaging with AOSP Messaging. Now all messaging apps look homogeneous (Gmail, Email and Messaging)
Do not use Live Wallpapers as it hogs battery. I use a plain black wallpaper with screen brightness at ~70%. Still battery gets me through the day
Go to task manager and clear RAM once a day. Close apps you are not going to use for sometime
Cheers

[Q] How to go back to stock ROM

Hi all,
I'm running one of the AOSP roms and I have CWM Recovery. I've decided I've had enough of playing with custom ROMS because none of them have ever delivered. Please tell me how I can go back to a stock ROM.
Thanks

Download a file from Dr. Ketan development thread and flash it with Odin.
Really easy. I too just went to rooted stock. It more stable and battery great. Haven't restart my phone in a week. No crash. I'm on stock LQ3 rom.

No if your flashing a GB rom through PC odin the GB kernel is flashed before the wipe takes place so its safe to do

I am currently on CM9 rom and want to go back to stock ics for a while. I will want to return to CM at a later date.
Can I do this safely?
Do I return to stock GB and then update via OTA to ICS or is there a safe ICS stock to flash? - remembering that I will want to go back to root and CM at a later date?

I want to go back to GB but I don't know how to. I am currently running LPY ICS and an unsafe kernal, reading these huge threads just makes me even more confused to be honest.
I have Mobile ODIN PRO - is there an easy and safe way to get back using this?

Guys please observe basic forum etiquette and start your own thread if you have an unrelated question. I wouldn't hijack your thread.
I'm already on an AOSP ICS ROM (one of the unofficial versions). How do I flash back to stock safely? How do I get rid of CWM?
Thanks

Guys on the AOSP/CM9 ROM----flash a stock GB ROM via PC Odin.
The guy with the LPY ICS use PC Odin too.
The above you would have found out on your own with 2 mins worth of searching.

There is no "safe ICS stock" currently---all ICS stock kernels have the brickbug.
Best way is to go to stock GB and then via OTA---that way you can get samsung warranty service if you mess up and your phone gets bricked.Alternatively, search around in the forum for stock ICS ROMs-there ought to be a few in the dev/general section.And "where there is a rom,there is info about flashing it"

hi, does anybody know what my original gingerbread version should be as i forgot to take note. i am currently on ics n7000xxlpt and i want to revert back to the original. just have no idea of how to find out.
thanks in advance

Its written on the box of your phone, thats how you can find out, n7000xxxxx something
