[Q] Not sure I understand.... - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So I am sort of new to the Android world and so far this forum's been very helpful,
I bought a second hand device with Criskelo ROM ICS v11 installed , and I have 3.0.15 NoteCore v11.1 Kernel.
Android version 4.0.4
Phone is note very stable. I am not sure if thats the case will all androids but when i compare to ios its sort of pathetic.
I want to remove Criskelo , maybe get something much lighter and with less bugs.
I've read many guides but I still dont get a few things :
1- What are CM9 and CM10 ? are those custom ROMs?
2- I read somewhere that my kernel is "safe". Does this mean I wont brick my phone no matter what i flash/install/remove ?
3- Also Are there different versions for Stock ROMs around ? I thought a stock rom for ICS 4.0.4 would be "unique" . This thread is a bit confusing
4- I am thinking of giving Paranoid Android a try but I read on a different site that I would lose my s-pen sensitivity and s-note access.
5- Lets say I want to install PA, is it better if I go to stock , then root then install PA or install PA without reverting back to stock ROM in the first place?
Sorry for my bad english ,
Thank you all

hi
1/ CM9 and CM10 are costom roms called AOKP that means this roms are not based on the stock rom ,it is based on the android open source project . this rom does not have the TW (touchWizz) suport.
2/ your karnel is safe mean that the eMMC_erase_cape was disabled by the developer ,and you can do wipes without riscks ,but flashing some thing dangerous can brick your phone.
3/ yes there is alot of stock release I list some : LQ2 ,LQ3 ==> 4.0.3 and LRG LRI LRK LRQ ==> 4.0.4 my favorite is LRQ.
4/ yes paranoid is not a TW rom it is an AOKP rom no suport for Spen and no Spen applications ,but it is a nice rom you should try it.
5/ you can install PA from any rom ,if you are on crisklo's or any other stock based roms you must do a full wipe affter the installation ,or it will not boot.
I think I answer to all your questions ,my english is bad sorry for that .
any other questions I will be here
thanx

1 its AOSP not AOKP.... AOKP its another custom rom like cm9/10 Wich are builded from AOSP.
2 its KERNEL universal software term for that part of the OS you don't need to know English to write it properly.
3 -
4 PA its not AOKP and it's compiled from CM10 sources.
5 you need to wipe when changing roms no matter what.. You just gotta be sure you are on a safe kernel before doing so

1/ thats what I was sayying.
2/ thanx for the correction (I hate linux any way)
3/
4/ no we don't need wipe if we are going from an cmX to CMX and if we are going from stock/based stock to stock/based stock without changing CSC .
re : I noticed that you treat noobs like sh*t on this forum ,we are humains !!
I didn't do any thing wrong I think ...

Thanks All
I just installed stock ICS 4.0.4
All my data is still there, i dont know maybe i need to wipe AFTER i install stock.
The way I've done it is : put phone in odin mode ( volume down , power and home key )
connect to pc
load odin , load the image and click start
and that was pretty much it , at no point did i have to wipe reset all data. ( i wanted to but i dont know why it didnt happen ) so all my data and apps are still there
I believe I am not rooted at the moment. and my Kernel has now changed back to : 3.0.15 - N7000XXLRK-CL811902
I would like to root the phone and also wipe all data if possible.
Should i change my kernel as a first step ? and if yes give me a safe way /tutorial link
thanks

You are not rooted and you need to do a full wipe
But it should be done only with a safe kernel
Flash hydracore kernel and you will automatically get rooted and then ,its safe to do a full wipe

Never do a full wipe on stock kernel

:laugh::laugh::laugh:
Experimental ROMs are those ROMs which are not stable i.e. which are very buggy and have (sometimes) major issues.
Eg. Here and here
They say clearly that many things are not working.Don't flash these as a noob.We'll help if you run into troubles,of course, but its better to stay away until you learn more.
Anyways, I'd better say this before the lynching party gets here:
""PREVIEW DISCLAIMER:
This is a PREVIEW : CyanogenMod 10 is nowhere near ready to be used as a daily driver (lots of features still have to be merged)""

install JB Paranoid preview with ICS and SpeedMod kernel

Hello,
I would like to install the JB preview coming from Paranoid :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1797698
I am curently on samsung DDLPA ICS ROM, with root, and kernel SpeedMod K3-11.
please, let me know if I say something wrong. I want to be sure I don't make any mistake :
- my kernel is reliable. I can reboot into recoveray, and make some wipe of caches, dalvik cache etc... without having the risk of brick my Note,
because this is not a stock Kernel.
- it is adviced to flash the JB rom starting from a clean GB. but because my kernel is reliable, I could do it directly from my cirrent ROM + Kernel ?
- because JB has it own kernel, I will lose my speedMod Kernel.
please, let me know if what is listed above is right, or not.
using a computer to flash a new ROM will be difficult for few next days. it would be great for me to be able to flash it directly from my Note.
in any case, I wait for feedback before doing anything...
thanks
Olivier
I think you are right but why taking risks
Better flash a prerooted gb then go to jb

[Q] Newbies On Rom & Root

hi guys im new to roms , kernels and roots. So what i have is a samsung galaxy note which is kinda outdated using gingerbread 2.3.6. Since i saw lots of post about fantastic rom such as the rocketrom , alliancerom and alot more and they also come with JellyBeans.
The main problem i facing is , i would like to know about the facts that after playing with roms what will happen to my phone ? i mean in future will the devices gone wild or maybe dead. I have no idea wth that , so i hope someone enable to give me some advices and consequences of doing these. Any helpful tips will be much appreciate. =)
i wish to change my phone into rocketrom with the latest version of it. so is there any kernels that i can use which is absolutely stable & brickfree.
THANKS FOR ANY HELPFUL TIPS =)
running GB... and want to go to JB
1. root
2. install CWM
3. download Rocket rom on to storage
4. boot into cwm
5. wipe data factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik, format /system
5. install the rom
do a lot of reading
Playing with roms doesnt make your phone go wild or get bricked until u flash a rom in a wrong way
And you always need to be on a safe kernel before u flash a rom
As u are on gb,all stock gb roms are safe to flash..so root your phone and get cwm
Then do wipes and flash the rom

All gb roms are safe to flash..so just get rooted and flash rocketrom
And rocketrom comes with a safe and brickfree kernel,so its not required to flash another kernel after u flash rocketrom
And i guess there are no other kernels compatible with jb roms other than the philz kernel that comes with the rom

i second that.. use Philz kernel that comes with the rom. Tested i flashed Hydracore and my phone wont boot. had to flash back RRv2 JB.
hydracore v7 does not work with the tw based roms jb as of now. and will not work until an official jb rom is released.
IcIc
btw how bout kernel which fits properly without brick with RocketRom ICS V12 :laugh::laugh::laugh:

My worm suggestion is to go with 4.1.2.More stable and everything works.
You can flash 4.2.1 without wipe over this(not recomended).But there will be a time till 4.2.1 be fully functional.
Try 4.1.2 you won't regret.
Many regards
Thx for reply
I'll try 4.1.2 and in the future I'll try 4.2.1 if i want it... xD
For installation... can I flash over a clean 2.3.6 directly or i need flash a JB or ICS first (as CM)?

You can flash over a clean 2.3.6 but first read tutorials. Basics:
1. Get root permisions
2. Install CWM
3. Get your ROM (zip file).
4. Then follow ROM installation intructions.
Hi again,
I install 4.1.2 before and all was ok... then try 4.2.1 and had very problems
Install from CWM it's ok, but when reboot and start config... only have this messages:
"Installatiewizard is gestopt"
And FC, FC, FC.....
Of course i try to install 4 times and ALWAYS I did 3 wipes....
Can help me pls?
I can not create a new user in the terminal (pm create-user name) and I can not create a new user with the user managemed app, my question is if I am doing any wrong or if this ROM (Beast 4.2.1-20121214) can not have multi user.
Sorry for my english, but it is not my first language.

Yes, you can safely factory reset on Philz kernel :good:
2nd question is a wrong question to be asked here on XDA, as it is Best rom question. Also, I have not used both, so I cannot answer that question. Sorry

I am very sorry If I violated any of the rules by best I just meant a feature like comparission maybe like verus thing. Because their Features arent listed so clearly.. more so like someone to point out the difference beetween the two...
Look the paranoid android will be a stable ROM but you'll have more features in the other hybrid ROM. It's your choice. ROMs by beerbong are very good and stable
I'd personally recommend you the P.A.C. ROM also by beerbong. It has all the features you look in a custom ROM, AOKP, CM, PA. PAC ROM is the way...
Hi Varad297,
I would recommend that Rom too, currently using it on my ZTE Blade and on my HP Touchpad and love it.... I plan to upgrade my ZTE Blade to a N7000 come October and been asking a few questions as I am new to this beast (N7000 and all its bricking problems) but not new to Android...
I asked a question a while ago, but still waiting for it to be answered so perhaps you could advise as you know this ROM.
The N7000 I will be getting will come with Vodafone UK official stock JB rom, (Android 4.1.2 I believe). However i want to take it to PAC 22:40 (based on Android 4.2.2).
However I am confused as to which Philz recovery kernel I would need? And how (what to look for) in the kernel when choosing...? Philz seems to be the most recommended one, but there are so many to choose from....
thanks, Lister
You mean which Philz kernel you'd need to flash PAC? I flash my ROMs on the CWM recovery as i do not trust the Philz kernel doue to some problem while flashing certainAOSP ROMs on the CWM-based recovery provided with the Philz kernel. I'd rather suggest you yo flash ROMs on a CWM recovery like that which comes with the CM kernel.

if you are rooted you can add S4 and Note 2 features yourself (pretty easy) from Themes and Apps section. if you still want TW rom then you can try:

You have the zip files for TW launcher along with tweaks in it like AccuWeather widget n stuff, all flashable in recovery. Do visit the apps n themes section
