[Q] From CleaNote to Crash Rom... or another one - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi friends,
I'm a new GNote owner with CleaNote rom and Hydracore kernel installed.
I've heard that CleaNote will be discontinued and I'm seraching for a new Long Time Support (Yes I use Linux desktop computer ) rom.
I've selected Crash Rom, Criskelo and Rocket Rom. I don't know witch one to choose but I'm CF-Root oriented. Last thing, I'm not interested by GApps (various hubs and co) but I need Radio FM and I want to flash with CWM only (no Odin).
I've two questions :
- In your opinion, what of theese rom do have I to choose ? (or what else)
- I've seen in Crash install procedure that I have to flash Abyss kernel first. Is it a no-discuss option or can I do the install with a safe kernel like my Hydracore ?
Thank you for your help.

I like criskelo vry much.stock oriented and available wd cf foot.
See abyss kernel is for safe and thats help custom roms in flashing.

Namaste aur daniyeval Shiv,
Abyss is for safe. That means than I can use any safe kernel ?

See dont use stock kernels on ics.and every custom dev kept its rom safe for flashing.
Hit thanks........NAMASTE

I know ICS stock kernel is a GNote killer . Yhat's why I've immediately flashed Hydracore.
Any other opinions about all these roms ?

Hydracore is safe to flash any rom so no need to use abyss kennel ( abyss for flashing new rom only ),just follow op instruction but ignore abyss thing.
Phil kennel is like cf root but triple safe and both battery friendly ( can find in original dev) , hydracore is more performance and tripple safe too.Your choice
Criskelo discontinuous support his rom. Every rom are good , try out and see which one is fit your taste.

Hi,
You're perfectly clear, as your explainations, Thank you.
I think that I'll test every one for a week each before deciding.
Last question. For install between these roms, do I need to to a reset factory (and say bye to my apps) or can I try a simple dalvik/cache wipe ?

Try first without factory reset and if you don't run into force closes---you're good !
If you do.....you have to factory reset.
But you can backup your apps using Titanium Backup and restore all non-system apps(i.e. user apps).I do this regularly...Saves me the trouble of reinstalling that crapload of games !:laugh:

I'll try... I'll try.
But anyway, I've no game on my note except a Klondike....:good:

Recommend full wipe on every rom , this will save you alot problem later and take about 30 min to do.. you can use tt back up your app or manually install 1 by 1 take little longer but this method really good.. Enjoy

Ok. Thank you. I'll be a cool and patient guy... and I'll make Titanium Backup hot.
But, for my curiosity, what do I risk with no wipe between : bootloop ? brick ? nuclear explosion ? anything else ?

Horrible ! You mean I can break my wall with my Note

[Q] Getting my Note tomorrow! A few questions.

Hello lovely XDA users. Just wanted to ask a few questions about the Note. Im used to Nexus devices and the unlocking and rooting process is usually straight forward, reading up on the Note I got a bit confused lol. So how do you root it? I have read about the ICS leaks bricking phones so I will stick to GB for now, can anyone recommend a good GB ROM? Would like stock Android if possible. One more question, apart from rooting how do you get CWM Recovery on it? Thanks for your help people and I'm really looking forward to getting the Note.
There's a thread in the dev section with pre-rooted firmwares. You can flash any of these with PC Odin and you're rooted. I suggest you flash the European Open or UK version of XXLC1.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424997
If you want to get CWM Recovery as well you need to flash the CF-Kernel for the version of the rom you flashed. So if you flashed XXLC1 you need the CF-Kernel for version LC1.
Scroll to the bottom of this post and download the file for the correct version: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=18978158&postcount=1
Extract that file, double click the alread-rooted.bat file and it will push all the necessary files to the Note. Once it's done your phone will reboot and you can use CWM Recovery (hold power+home+volume up untill Samsung logo pops up) to flash any rom you like.

Explained like a pro, Thank you very much. Any GB ROM you would recommend? Preferably with Stock Android although I'm guessing you can't use the S Pen apps? Might stick to Stock Touchwiz ROM although I hate it. Any kernel to recommend with a Stock ROM? Thanks for your help.
All the custom GB roms fully support the s-pen because they're all based on official Samsung firmwares, I'm not aware of any custom rom with stock Android UI at the moment. You can always use a custom launcher to at least get rid of TouchWiz. I'm using CheckRomHD V6 and installed NemusLauncher at the moment and I like it a lot. RocketRom V23 is a very nice rom as well though it's a bit of a hassle to flash as you first need to flash V22, do a wipe and then flash V23.
You can even combine custom roms and custom kernels. If you want to be able to overclock as well you can flash for example CheckRom and then flash the AbyssNote 4.2 or FM Kernel 2.0 in CWM Recovery. Or if you go for speed and good battery life you can flash SpeedMod Kernel 2-11.
Basically it's all up to you. Read the threads about the custom roms, choose a few with features you like and just try them for a while. Just keep in mind that there is a slight chance you end up in a boot loop (usually solved by doing a data/cache/Dalvik wipe in recovery) or soft-bricking and you have to start all over by flashing a pre-rooted kernel and CF-Root again, but this applies to any custom rom on any phone.
You said them firmwares are pre-rooted but on the thread it say's they are not directly rootable. ???

No problem at all mate, welcome to the wonderful world of the Note
So much positivity on this thread... Awesome. Btw I recommend official cm9..It's safe and won't brick your device.. And is amazing. Slap reloaded cm9 on top and you're golden.

Where is this ROM? Sounds good. Any Kernel you recommend with it or just the standard one that's with it? Can you OC with normal kernel?

Does this mean that you want all the stuff that comes initially with your Note?
If yes, then CM9 probably is not the right thing for you. It is devoid of all the
Samsung crapware, plus you don't get native S-Pen Samsung support. This
means no SMemo and similar stuff; you have to use different apps from the
Market instead.
OTOH, if you want a lean, smooth and fast Rom, and are not afraid to do some
tinkering, then CM9 would be ideal for you.

1. CM9 is here.
2. No optional kernels for now, because it contains the only safe ICS kernel ATM
3. No OC either, but you won't be needing it - the kernel is very fast as it is. In
fact, I keep mine at 1.2Ghz. It feels just as quick, and it's somewhat easier on
the battery.
Ok, I flashed a stock GB ROM through odin and I have run the bat file and installed the CF kernel and CWM. How do I flash CM9 and where do I find Reloaded CM9? Thanks you lovely people

Clean reinstall ICS - need help choosing the right ROM

Getting sick of the ICS battery and kernel issues and have decided to clean out the phone and install everything fresh.
I am currently on an unrooted stock ICS ROM (N7000XXLRK) and understand that I should go back to a GB ROM first then install ICS. I will search on here for a guide on how to do it (links welcome ) but am confused as to which ROM I should use of the many stock ROMs posted on here.
Since I am going to do a clean install, is it worth going back to the XXLRK ROM or is there an improved one which has sorted the battery kernel issues out? Which GB ROM can I safely go back to without confusing things before I reflash ICS?
Is it recommended that anything else is added or flashed while I have the hood up? Unless there is an uber stable custom ROM I want to stay stock, but will want to root it.

JUST DON'T EVER WIPE WITH STOCK ICS KERNEL. USE A CUSTOM KERNEL LIKE NOTECORE,SPEEDMOD ETC.

upgrading to the latest ICS kernel doesn't necessarily guarantee that your deep sleep and excessive battery usage woes will go away.... your deep sleep and battery drain issues are subjective and have lots of factors that might contribute to it.
Don't let the notion fool you into thinking that your issues(above) will simply be resolve by simply upgrading to the latest firmware. Because I'll tell you now.. it will not still. (infact there have been people complaining that upgrading to the latest ICS one have increase more their battery drain than ever before), unusual as it may seem... but it has been complained about already.

Second thing I didn't advised anyone (not the op) that your issues will be resolved by just doing the things mentioned above. Confused ?

Third I was just answering him the question he asked in "OP"
Fourth if you are facing deep sleep issues or your device is not going to deep sleep mode then OP can try this..
Turn ON the Airplane Mode.
Switch Off your Phone.
Take the battery OUT for a minute or TWO
Put it back and start your phone.
Wait for everything to load
Turn off the Airplane Mode.
After that you can check the same in CPUSPY

I have tried the method you describe and also looked at CPUSpy with BBS and on top of that I have the keyboard lockup issue too in Chrome.
It seems that the quality of the phone is completely lower since the ICS updates with it not providing a full day of use on one charge as well as me having to be careful about bleutooth/wifi usage and time that I use the phone to surf. Quite ridiculous really and I haven't had to use a smartphone like this since the days of the HTC Diamond.
Before I revert back to GB and be done with it, I want to try an nice clean ICS install and give it one last chance, unless there is a custom ICS ROM you think I should consider.

Yes, using pc odin you can flash what you like. If you want good battery, it's worth doing a clean install ie perform data wipe/factory reset to clear any old mess, obviously if you're going onto ics make sure you have a safe kernel before performing any wipes at all.
To be honest though, for ICS you're getting pretty good battery life, I doubt you'll top it except going back to GB.
All the best, let us know how you get on.

Yes, I understand that WipeAll is the best way. But this mean, flash safe kernel = root (or can i just flash safe kernel on my stock ICS via PC odin? )
And root ICS = go to GB directly rooted kernel and....etc.
In my old Galaxy Spica I have change kernel or mod (rom) every month but was always just 2.2 froy. So no worry about it.
And still i am reading all thread of all rom in XDA. No rom is perfect. Its working but sometimes some bugs...so i am tired (2 years with Spica) of looking for the best kernel for my note.
Now i want just one normal working with a little good live of battery
btw. What is your live of battery on custom kernel 4.0.3. ? If you say i have pretty good battery i will not it change

Firstly battery: ics swallows a lot more juice than gb, so what you're getting is pretty good. I'm currently on paranoid android jb beta 1.4 with Beastmode kernel and getting roughly 8 hours with 4 hours screen on. I use it a lot! When I was on pure ics 4.03 I was getting around the same.
Roms and kernels: if you flash an already rooted gb, you can do so now with pc odin and it will automatically root. When you've done that, check to see if cwm is installed as it may be part of the package in which case your good to go, if not just flash a Chainfire kernel. Then you have cwm recovery (vol up, home and power) and flash this rom package which includes a safe kernel.
Hope that makes sense.

I presume these ROMs have their kernels built in.
Would you thus recommend one of these custom ROMs for my requirements over say stock ICS with perhaps a different kernel? I am not really looking for lots of features as I would like to build up the apps on my own, ie shut out bloatware. I would like it to be stable and have at least 15 hours of battery life with 3-4 hours screen time, which is what I enjoyed with GB. How do you think CM9 fits in with your selection?
Last flashing I did was on a Dell Streak which was easy as there was only DJ Steve at the time, Seems with the Note I am starting again from scratch, completely different flash process and loads of ROMs. Sort of blinded by it all to be honest

I presume these ROMs have their kernels built in.
Would you thus recommend one of these custom ROMs for my requirements over say stock ICS with perhaps a different kernel?

Paranoid looks very interesting.
Is it recommended that I try it or is it too unstable and thus I should I stick to the other listed Roms?

First thing I am just wondering why this quoting is broked ? looks like something is broken in this thread.
Second thing I didn't advised anyone (not the op) that your issues will be resolved by just doing the things mentioned above. Confused ? Check OP.I am currently on an unrooted stock ICS ROM (N7000XXLRK) and understand that I should go back to a GB ROM first then install ICS. I will search on here for a guide on how to do it (links welcome ) but am confused as to which ROM I should use of the many stock ROMs posted on here.
Third I was just answering him the question he asked in "OP"
Fourth if you are facing deep sleep issues or your device is not going to deep sleep mode then OP can try this..
Turn ON the Airplane Mode.
Switch Off your Phone.
Take the battery OUT for a minute or TWO
Put it back and start your phone.
Wait for everything to load
Turn off the Airplane Mode.
After that you can check the same in CPUSPY

[Solved]Need some help , :)

i am quite confsed..
i am a developer from htc wildfire s forum..
i have my brother owning galaxy note..
i flashed the CM10 (unofficial ) on my device he was quite impressed with the JB in such a low end phone.. (htc wildfire s is armv 6 with only 600 mhz with no support for hd gaming.. not even temple run works on it )
so he said me to root his device.. n flash the CM10 rom in it..
so as the guide said i rooted the phone..
(i also installed mobile odin n triangle away from market )
then i googled n realised there is something called binary counter..
n then i also realised that many users are having problem in flashing the CWM. (its kernel dependent i guess,, n i dont know which one to use.. i flashed the hydracore v3 kernel)
so i am likke WTF how to back up the rom?
N now if i want to flash a rom i can do it with odin.. but then how will i revert back to my ICS(the current rom ie the stock rom ,)
can plz someone answer to my questions...
LONG story in Short :
1) how to backup (without increasing the counter)
2)How to restore backup without getting the device bricked.
Root device and flash safe kernel(e.g.Hydracore) with Mobile odin
(2nd link on my signature, use method 1 to root, and use mobile odin to flash safe kernel)
After flashing safe kernel you will have CWM advance recovery, which have backup/restore function

Check rooting guide in Dr.Ketan's sig, you will find all methods to root there.
In method 1 you have to root first and then you can flash custom kernel using mobile odin or pc odin (flashing custom kernel will also install cwmr)
method 2 is flashing custom kernel using pc odin it will root and flash cwm recovery too.

Proly when those thread were created, there was no safe ICS custom kernel, now we have lots of them, You can use Hydracore kernel. So basically as long as you are on any safe kernel, you can restore and backup using cwmr without any danger of brick (provided that you follow correct procedure, lol)

It depends on your requirement, I have tried almost all custom roms available for Note from CheckROm (GB) to PA CM10 and they are are too good. But I always prefer stock rom for long run (again personal choice). As of now using stock LR6 with mods.

Jeetu1981,
Your hd2 still be with you? Im really miss that legendary smart phone. ...mine sold to my staff. Im force him to let me flash his hd2 at least once per month with the reason update for better performances..
Htc phone not too risky when come to flashing. But is more complicated and need more knowledge if compare to samsung phone.

lol, same here. I sold it to one of junior one year back (he is still using it) and just flashed PA by Xylograph 2 days back for him He actually don't know anything about flashing and all but wants to see different Android versions on his Leo.
im really regreted to sold my hd2. Im really never expect hd2 will have changes to taste jelly bean. I thought it will be the end of story when ics landed for hd2.
Im really wonder hd2 are going taste window 8 as well.
Nothing is impossible for hd2....:thumbup:
Sorry for off topic again.

[Q] Perform a clean downgrade from 4.1.2 to 4.0.4

Hello there XDA.
First I would like to apologize if this has already been answered. I searched for the past 3 hours but did not find anything that would fully answer my questions.
So I have a Samsung GT-N7000 Galaxy Note running the stock 4.1.2 LT4 ROM (rooted). The device is unbranded and bought from Germany. Because it lags horribly everywhere, I want to get ICS and the old TouchWiz back, so I decided to downgrade to the latest ICS ROM that has TouchWiz 4, and, after searching, I found that it is N7000XXLRK.
These are my questions:
- what do I have to do to fully wipe the phone before I downgrade to N7000XXLRK, therefore completely removing any traces of older ROMs, in order to do a clean install? Do I have to use some option in PC Odin? Maybe wipe some partitions in Recovery (I have installed PhilZ CWM for LT4)? Cache, data, system, or maybe some others, too?
- what partitions are safe to wipe from CWM and what are not?
- what else should I do to ensure that the new ROM works properly?
- is there anything that needs to be backup-ed, aside from apps (I use TitaniumBackup for that) and all files on the sdcard and external_sd partitions?
I mention that before LT4 I had all Stock 2.3 ROMs, all Stock ICS ROMs 2 AllianceROMs and 3 leaked Jelly Bean ROMs.
Thanks in advance.
See friend... this is Easy, I think as you are on xxlt4 u must be running philz, c.o.h or speedmod//??.. if yes, boot to recovery and go to mount and storage option and then format everything... after that.. go to the bootloader, VOLdown+home+Power.. and then directly flash your ICS ROM, this would be a perfect clean install!!!
hit- THanks please

Hello NoteboyTech.
All right. Thanks for the answer. I will try it. Yes, I am on official XXLT4 with PhilZ CWM, but no custom kernel.
P.S. Have you or anybody else tested this before? I may be a little paranoid but I am afraid not to brick my device, as I have read that some users were unable to use the phone function after formatting /efs or /boot in CWM.

DOn;t worry it aint bricking while doing a flash using odin... btw.. I would advice use speedmod ics kernel... as this may enhance your ics experience..
ohk.. welcome....

I have 2 more questions: what is the fastest kernel available? Isn't HydraCoreNirvana faster?
What is the most stable kernel? (aside from stock)

I am afraid you wont get answer to that question (these questions are not allowed here). he already told you what he thinks is best, either use that or try them all for yourself from "kernel repository"

Actually sorry brother,, I went to sleep.. btw like as above you're switching back to ICS so ICS has now only speedmod availaible... but for jelly bean you can have c.o.h kernel... it's smooth as hell!!!

[Q] [ Need HELP ] .. Not Kernel Panic .. Upload Mode

Dear all XDA Developers
i have samsung galaxy note n7000, after we got the official JB update the device went to be so slow, so i choosed to downgrade it to ICS and i download the sogtware image from (www.samsung-updates.com) as i told it should be official software images.
and i downloaded the ODIN v3.09 for pc, connect the phone and install, it fiinished successfully, AFTER that i start to got the error, the phone shutdown suddenley and got the screen said "RST_STAT 0x2000000 User Fault, not kernel panic, upload mode"
i tried to install again and still have the same error the it is random no specific time, then i download and install the Philz and wipe the phone as for install a new ROM and install the same image then got the same error after two days.
my request is how to solve this problem and where to download an official ICS for my GT-N7000
i hope to find the solution here in XDA developers
best regards
No one can help??!!!!
Is this issue so difficult and there is no solution or any idea about solving it??
It depends on how you choose. Going your path back to official ics could be problematic. So i would just go forward install a custom jb rom such as Aryamod then the problem is solved and u will have a beautiful and fast rom. Done.

Also, stock ics is known to brick phones.
as i got the official JB via update the device is too slow, so would that problem solved when installing a custom rom? and which rom should i choose? and the problem now is with the device hardware? or just the ics??
as i searched before it on the internet i found that this is a GPS problem!! how can i check that please??

1stly, After getting JB update from OTA, it's recommended to do a factory wipe in stock recovery (This is what Samsung CS told me). I tried and it works (at the expense of having all my data n apps gone).
2nd, Like @forest1971 says, there's many good custom Roms And you can choose per your liking. I strongly oppose going back to ICS as of the brick bug threat. If you really want to downgrade, might as well go for GB.
3rd, WHAT is the point of our good Dev's spending their precious time and cracking their heads to come up with a custom rom IF they are not BETTER than Stock roms?

Installing through odin is the best method for flashing stock rom. You have done it right. Just remember NEVER to do a factory reset anywhere with ICS. Not even in recovery
