Hello, i ve spent some time looking for this problem and cant find solution on forums...
I can't turn bluetooth on in my Note. I turn it on from settings\slide bar, it will think for about 10 seconds, then turn off again( i m getting 'bluetooth devices detected' message meanwhile, but cant see the list ).
Same on gingerbread rom i bought it with( don't remember which one), also tried ics 4.0.4 stunner and rocket roms, same problem.
Please help

fixed it by flashing speedmod kernel.

It's a known issue. ICS 4.0.4 Bluetooth doesn't work on custom kernel. But speedmod (since k3-9) and Notecore has fixed it.

if your using speedmod kernel versions prior to k3-9... you can't hold on your BT for a long time..it would just turn off for brief seconds... its a known issue on lower versions of the speedmod kernel... install speedmod k3-9 and higher and your BT will be fine.

i have installed stock GB, then updated to ICS thru kies, everything Stock....still BT doesn't work...
u are saying if i put a custom kernel it will?
is it safe to flash that speedmod over stock kernel?

Nop it should work on stock.. If it doesn't work on stock it won't work on anything

Flash a Semaphore kernel designed for ics. See http://www.semaphore.gr/homepage/semaphore-ics which also has links to xda-developers.

I downloaded Semaphore_ICS_1.3.0. That's all i need, right ?
Just choose this file on PDA and flash ?
EDIT: I already did that and worked.
Only 1 thing: after flashing, i had to push the power button to start ... didn't had to reboot after flash ?

Semaphore 1.3.0 is the one you need. You can flash it through Clockworkmod recovery, its the easiest way. Don't forget to wipe cache and dalvyk cache before flashing a new kernel. Besides semaphore you could also try devils kernel 1.0.3. It is more performance oriented. Flash the one you like. The only thing I don't like about semaphore 1.3.0 is that wifi tethering doesn't work.
Reboot after flashing is crucial, but if you have the new semaphore configuration app, you did it right! Just reboot one more time to be sure everything works alright.

Optimised battery i would think is a combination of both Kernel & Rom Apps, the stock kernel runs close to the 832 MHz frequency at most times even when the phone is idle. I always found my battery went fast when on stock firmware. RB's Kernel supports different frequencies and thus depending on the load on the CPU this can help save battery consumption. A bareboned ROM will also help keep power consumption low but the trade off is less app functionality on your phone.

See retribution gave me a very poor battery back up with 3G and wifi. But its quite fast. Right nw i am on stock deodexed XXLH3...with domscript and rafaels kernel. It gives me a 3/4th of a days use....with 3g and wifi.
Battery back up with simplicity V2 was quite good. But it has some app issues. (extreme bareboned). Kies doesnt recognise my fone. So had to restore my XXLH3 back up.

Go with stock....simplicity V3 would be released.....wait for that...V2 has some bugs.....but a good Rom...... Its based on XXLI1. So try using the stock deodexed version of that. Maybe that stock version has good battery life ( report back and let me know abt the battery drain, If you are going to use that )...
Otherwise XXLH3 is a good option.

Are you running WIFI and 3g permanetly all day? If so this will drain your battery pretty fast regardless of what ROM your using i would assume. The Simplicity ROM's are fast and smooth, but at the moment i would wait for its v3 release, im currently using Jillie Bean Beta2 which works for me. You need to be realistic about how much battery use you will get out of your phone, if its being left idle power off functions you dont need.

I agree with you. I do that with every rom i use. And till now simplicity was best at that. XXLA2 Roms didnt last long than these newer versions. Maybe there wud be some stock battery management tweaks. As of now...the battery has been getting better for me with every new updated stock version. I dont know about other users. I just check and try to bring out the best battery back up possible. And yes...thats what i told him above to wait for V3 simplicity.

Hey I'm about to maybe falsh to newest Simplicity V3.5 version.
But I have a question about this rom.
In the description it is said that it is based on "xxli1", right now I'm running a German Ace i with "XXLD2"
Can some one tell me if "XXLI1" will also support German language.
It is possible to import the language afterwards?

Follow the instruction, after you done you will be in 2.3.6 or 2.3.4, but it's still stock.

just read dev threads and flash something with good battery backup (cm7 by mebitek or kittenlinux most likely, with moderate use i had 3, sometimes 4 days without charging on it. in cm9 i have 2 days tops, but i'm happy with it)

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.

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.
