Life is complicated, right? :) - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello, there, dear people of xda!
I was just about to jump either into installing Sweet ROM for my Note, or Rocket ROM v12, WHEN I learned that there is a new, official JB and TW based Rocket ROM, by the same person. Even he says "forget ICS". http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1957152
Is looks and "read" great, according to the thread.
Should I go for it, or take Sweet ROM v5.
I mean, apparently some stuff that has been playing up in TW based ICS ROMs, is fixed in this JB TW ROM.
So, what could be the downside/possible risk?
As always, forever thankful,
cmick30

I don't think there is any risk in trying diff roms till u know the right procedures
read thoroughly

I'm on the official jb leak, if you like Touchwizz then if you follow instructions to install you shouldn't face any bugs. It's a great rom, and I'm not even a fan of Touchwizz but it's very smooth and responsive and has a lot of features from galaxy s3.
I'd definitely recommend it.

ICS vs Gingerbread, what do you use?

What do you use on your notes?
Just a question to see what people running on their notes...
Do you still use gingerbread.....
Or on ice cream sandwich?
What are your reasons?

What am i using????
After trying several ICS roms, i wanted a very stable, long battery rom.
So i chose stock gingerbread, not clocked, and it lasts forever, not laggy...
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
I use ICS, Mainly because I like to have the latest Android version available. That being said, Stock GB is very good, Very efficient and smooth with great battery.
But most custom ROMs and mods are for ICS so thats another reason i use it.
GB - better battery life and i dont see any advantage to using ics over gb

Have you tried the latest ICS 4.0.4?
It is by far better than GB and also better than 4.0.3. My main reasons:
Very stable
Excellent battery life - for sure far better than GB, at least this is my experience
Premium S-apps - they are much better than the ones found on GB, and I use them everyday
ICS handles better multitasking - so the interface is smoother
For me - proper Hebrew language support - GB is poor on right to left languages support
Access to apps supported only on ICS, like Chrome and Apex, for example
These are only the most relevant ICS features - but overall the ICS implementation really feels better than GB.
I'm Using Latest ICS 4.0.4 . I Always Love To Use New OS.

Yes, but what about the brick bug risk of using this stock ROM? I have 4.0.3 and will likely update once it hits UK, but bricking my device in the progress worries me.
I'm on ICS 4.0.3.It's good and smooth but it makes a hissing sound upon recording say a video file.
It's a bit off topic but is this problem solved in 4.0.4?
Oh and btw the gps wakelock problem in GB used to drive me crazy now I can relax I don't really care if it (ICS) uses more battery.:good:
Hi at all,
I use a final ics 4.0.4 ger rom stock with speedmod 3-9 kernel and i have a fast, stable and powerful system... It's a perfect combination

I, personally, don't like touchwiz ui and wanted to be on the latest OS available so I flashed paranoid Android ROM on to my device. This ROM was made to suit the hybrid phone/tablet design of the note AND I get to have that pure Google OS feel. The are other great roms available for the note but I find it extremely difficult to switch from paranoid Android.

I am using Stock ICS 4.0.3, with Speedmod Kernel K3-9. Although felt GB was much faster/smoother than ICS, but who wants to stay downgraded.
P.S. - Am already looking forward to JB
ICS is my choice, and a memorial has much better features. My recommendation.

Best Ice Cream Sandwich Rom ???

I am rooting the phone for the first time so I want to know which is the best available ICS rom which has least bugs. I need basic things to work such as wifi and bluetooth. I want all the steps to complete the procedure. It will be really helpful if any one could give me some links. I could have searched but I have no idea which one is the best so please help me.
Hello
What tutorial you used to root your phone? i didin't saw a one updated , to have all the links

I have not yet started I need links to begin the process right from the scratch.
All ICS roms have bugs. Look in Dev thread for CM9 or AOKP.
Spend at least 4 hours reading how to prepare and install, 2 hours reading what to do when unexpected things happen during/after flash, and 1 hour being sorry wasting your and others time on such impossible question usually followed by biased opinions.
Don't flash ICS. wait for stable JB rom

As far as i experienced slim ics and cm9 are the best out there ...
sent from my GT-I9000 using xda premium
In terms of which ROM is best, unfortunately there is no answer.
Each rom is different (obviously) so people prefer different roms that fit their different needs.
I'd personally recommend something like SlimICS, TiramiSLIM, or DarkyROM Black Edition.
Slim ICS is a cut down version, no extravagant features.
TiramiSLIM has an easy installation process (if already rooted) and has lots of customization options.
DarkyROM is one of my favourites, but I just upgraded to Jellybean.
You want to know all the steps to installation?
One of the best guides I've found is for the Team 3xtr3me ICS333 rom.
Link here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=25722239#post25722239
It goes through installation of a rooted Gingerbead (2.3) rom via odin, which is the part most ROM installation guides assume you have already done.
From there you should be able to follow almost any ROM's guide for installation.
Hope this helped.
Don't flash another thing than Cyanogenmod nightlies.
Maybe AOKP. But prefer cyanogenmod. Accelerometer still broken on AOKP. No point of it. (Please don't comment temple runners.)
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda app-developers app
As kernel, flash latest devil kernel. Don't think another choice. Every kernel is nice. Semaphore is as nice as decil. But devil has more customization choices.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda app-developers app
When you're a bit into the flashing thing you coult try RemICS, which has best design for me and is very smoothe and fast as well.
CYANOGENMOD 9 !!! The best of all no bug no problem very fast and I use it for months with devil3.99 kernel
Here's the link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1592131
Hmm... to lazy to find out how to root, what's the difference (if significant) between roms, what to do when that pesky bootloop happen,.... so just start yet another thread for the bragging hordes?
"...... rom is smooth, bugfree, snapping fast, will make you breakfast? , has looongest bat. life,... "

I use DarkKnight 5.5 with DevilKernel and I found it very stable and smooth. For me it is the best ICS ROM for SGS.

You can try AOKP. I've been using it since a month and I can say that it's quite smooth and well developed. Try it and u won't regret.
My personal favourite. Slim ICS
But look at this benchmark thread and decide for yourself.

SlimIcs. Smooth and stable. But an advice , I personally hate lightning launcher so as soon as I get it I uninstall it and installed N.o.v.a. launcher

I have the same opinion. I currently use CM9 latest nightlies. Best kernels are Devil and Semaphore. I prefer CM9 + Devil kernel. But you could really wait for stable JB...
I've tried several ICS roms and, for me, the better one is Remics. Version 1.3 is already out, but I'm in 1.2 and I don't feel any need of upgrading it!

Best TW JB ROM for Note?

Hi, guys...
I have tried and flashed JB Rocket ROM and it was quite good, esp. v2 where pretty much everything worked, but yesterday and today suddenly I can't use my mobile data. Wifi Internet great, but no mobile Internet, no matter how many times I reboot and press "mobile data" button.
SO, my question is: what is the next best TW based JB ROM, since v3 of RR won't be coming because eybee got stressed out over the stupidity and idiotic behaviour of some forum members and he was so close to finishing v3, apparently. Bloody jerks! Respect to him and all the devs.
Hey, can somebody tell the big boys to try and make something like a weekly poll/statistics of which ROMs are most downloaded, which are best rated and stable. It would help a lot and save time spend on questions and aswers regarding this. You know, like when you buy stuff on Amazon, you pick 4/5 star products and then choose from the best of the crops.

Hi there!
I'm also interested and wanted to ask the same question...so Rocket Rom is the best one but unfortunately the dev isn't on it anymore.
Btw, if I understand correctly TW roms are Stock based but tweaked? So it means that it's possible to use Snote etc?
I'm asking this question because i'm for the moment on Thor Rom with Thor Kernel but I really miss Snote...
Thank you

Alliance is a great rom but have you tried the Ultimate v4 LS7 rom?
If you don't care about battery life, which is the fastest?
I have tried Ultimate JB ROM v4 (LS7 based) and so far it is great, fast, battery great too... Alliance ROM sounded interesting, and people in that forum/thread say it is great, but I was put off by "beta 1" thing. Ultimate is ultimate, right?
I think that till the middle of December we should see great, stable and full functional ROMs based on LS9. Can't blame me for hoping, right?
I have used alliance rom before, and right now i'm using Ultimate rom , it is very good and smooth enough, it has very useful OTA updater and i think it's best JB rom todays.

Well I personally prefer Ics 4 nw coz the latest TW JB Roms cant be overclocked !!!
Mostly i play games on my note when m free ......... So i prefer overall performance in Gamin + Battery bck up and by the time in TW have only tried alliance Rom and was'nt so happy wiz it ..... So switched to my old alliance final v3 and nw m quite satisfied !!
U should definitely give a try to RR ( Rocket Rom ) from eybee 1970 OR
Alliance rom from Robbie hood !! They r awesome developers .... Love using their roms !!
Also m juz waitin for Official Jb release by Sammy and new kernels !!
Do you know what I would like to see? I would like to see reviews, benchmarks and such. This android community is so awesome, but there is so much unused potential. So much that doesn't reach out the way it could have.
I would like to see proper, clean wikis with information and manuals. I would like to see reviews, pros and cons with the ROMs, benchmark to justify the verdicts and so on.
Instead, one is left with personal opinions - which isnt wrong or bad in any way, but not always enough. A "professional" review is made for the sake of the review and therefore able to tell us more.
With that said, I would like to ask if there is a 4.2.2 that is TW based. Couldn't find any - I found this thread though

This rom is to buggy
Go for Alliance rom Ics final
Or Rocket rom v12 ics both roms are extremly stable also bugfree
It depends on what you are looking for.... If you want to stick with ICS then like the above post says. RRv12 is amazing stable but you will have to flash a few extra add ons. Personally I love Kingdroidv8 - no extra work acquired and very stable,good battery life and smooth + fast. With the right kernel.
If you want to try out JB you are going to have to be willing to put up with the bugs, as everyone said it is not stable being based on LEAKED versions. Ultimate JB rom is beautiful and again requires extra work in flashing. But I'm running XLR JB rom right now and so far it's stable but not as fast as I want it to be.
Since you said you just got your NOTE. I suggest that you stick to ICS ROMs based on TOUCHwiz. Get a feel of how amazing the phone is and why everyone of us is in love with the NOTE. Once you've had enough of it, I'm sure a stable version of JB should be out by then
Have fun. Be creative :good:
Try paranoid Android 2.55 ultaka.
I have been using this for about a month, I have followed all the updates, really smooth stable and great battery life, but it's not a TW ROM so stuff like multi windows, snote,smemo, don't work.
To me it's the best JB ROM so far IMHO
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
I suggest you to go for Rocket ROM v12. Its the best ROM I've ever had on my Note. Stable, bug-free & good battery life.
I agree, RocketROM v12 is the most stable by far.

But why have ICS when you can have a stable bug free low battery drain JB ROM? just saying

Recomendations for a very stable rom

Hey all,
since my last Thread was closes due to some rule that didn´t even apply i am trying again:
I am looking for some advice for a very stable rom, TW, AOSP, AOKP, CM doesn´t matter,, i am just looking for some really stable rom advice.
NO i am not asking for the BEST or MOST stable ROM
I am just looking for some reccomendations for a really stable rom, since it is IMPOSSIBLE to try out ALL the roms out there and do some long time stability checking
Thanks in advance

GALAXY NOTE N7000 // KITKAT 4.4.2 // OMNI
As stated i am not asking for the best or most stable rom
i just want a recommendation of a very stable rom
i hope all the mods and users too will understand that it is impossible to to judge a roms stability by reading their threads, as much as it is impossible to try out all the roms just to find a very stable one...
This would take hundrets of hours reading and stability testing - or as i hope a 1 line response of a user that has the exp. and knowledge of a real stable rom
So plz show some common sense and just point me in the right direction for some very stable rom
Greetings

edit:
I am not looking for any special features, i dont care for the android version or distribution - i just need it to run as a surveilance camera and some sms forwarding, so the only feature the ROM i am looking for is STABILITY
Sorry, but this is extremely lazy. It took all other users also hours of reading and flashing to find out which ROM suits them best.
As you don't even specify your special usecase (=usage pattern), which Rom you're currently running, it will turn into a "most stable = best ROM" thread.
Good luck anyway and a happy new year.

Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
If you are calling this lazy you maybe havent read my requirements...
When i get a new phone i invest days of time to find the ROM that suits me best and i participated in dev. thread since this board was founded, i just cant get the Data of my old acount.
It can´t be prophibited to just ask for a very stable ROM when the alternative is wasting countless hours just to find a ROM that doesn´t need to feature anything but stability.
Nobody with a little bit of common sense would link this to the forum rule for Best ROM Threads...
No offense
but i find it interesting, that you take the time to post 2 answers instead of pointing me to a dev thread of a ROM that meets my requirements...
it is also interesting how every community is getting worse at growing user numbers - just think of this board in the beginning...

Still lots of work is needed in KITKAT to make it actually stable rom for NOTE1.
would suggest to try 4.3 first. try, experience and then move on with final 4.4 once released.
