First off-hold your guns!
I know JB as such isn't out yet, and can't be expected to be as stable as ICS... But, still- after watching video reviews of some custom ROMs, one asks themselves, if they should give it a go...
Ok, so I am running stock (LAME!!!, I know ) GB, rooted and couple of launchers make it more interesting, sure... However, after browsing through this lovely and extremely helpful forum, I noticed that there are people who are already enjoying the benefits of running JB ROMs, or very good and matured TW based ICS custom ROMs...
1. So, I know ICS stock kernel has been a bit of a problem, what that just 4.03, or did 4.04 fix that?
2.Kill be for being so easily pleased, but I do find my Note and its current ROM already pretty smooth... I know all the bits that ICS makes it better and even more so JB, but considering all the things ICS brought, is there a point of trying JB, except for experimenting?
3. One thing I am so after, is that bit where from the lock screen you have like 3, or 4 options, one of them being going straight into the camera mode. I don't know if that is only JB, but I could really use it, as the old way (press the menu button, swipe to unlock, then press the camera icon) so many times made me miss the scene I wanted to take a photo of. So, any info on that would be much appreciated.
4.So much hype around GN II, but seeing that so many features are being ported to GN I custom ROMs, I am only after a ROM which will have those new and useful S III and GN II bits sawn onto the old(er) jacket.
5. I am in no rush, so do you think that in 3-4 weeks something more stable JB based will be available(official JB update should be rolling out soon, no)?
Big thanks to all you guys here, not just for answering the questions, but also all the tutorials and topics we noobs can find here... Keep up the good work.
See custom jb roms are stable like cm10 aosp liquidsmooth etc.you will feel smooth quality on it and butter project.
Ics 4.0.4 is very stable and has many mods and a good battery life too.
So lastly its your choice which one to flash.
Hit thanks button pleass

Answering the title of your thread, there are no TW-based JB roms yet. All the TW-based ROMs are ICS. So if you are looking for smooth and reliable TW-based ROMs I would go for Kingdroid (ICS). If you want Jelly Bean you have ParanoidAndroid, Liquidsmooth, but these are not TW-based.
And answering the 5 questions in the contents of your post:
1. The problem is not with the kernel, the problem is with the chip itself, the *workaround* is using a modified kernel that does not use the MMC_CAP_ERASE command, so to answer your question, no the problem isn't solved and it won't be solved unless Samsung recalls all the units and gives out new ones without the bug. You will have to be careful when upgrading to ICS/JB because you will need to use safe kernels.
2. Jelly bean is definitely smoother than ICS, it is worth upgrading IMO.
3. That is the ICS/JB unlock screen that comes in stock android, and it is also available in most AOSP/AOKP ROMs. It is not available by default in Touchwiz but you can download that lockscreen from the Play Store as a standalone app and replace it.
4. Not all the Note2 features have been ported to the Note1, for instance the multi-window view is not available on any ROM yet as far as I know.
5. I have made the switch because I can't stand the look of Touchwiz, the complete disregard of Google's Holo design is for me a reason enough to switch to AOSP/AOKP, that said even when official JB ROMs start rolling out I probably won't come back to Touchwiz.
I think that you need a stock ICS TW rom, maybe RocketRom or Alliance v2.1 rom. I have tried a couple JB roms, but it feels like you have giant nexus insted of a great note.
If you want stock, pick up a last 4.0.4 xxlrt or ddlr9 or something similar, depends where you live but it's not too important. After that, just flash PhilZ kernel and you are safe, disable all aplications that you dont need, and thats it.
Or if you want a custom rom which is great like stock and cool like custom, choose rocketrom v12 or alliance v2.1
Hope that helps!
Ooooohhh-dann so...
Well, that clears so many things...
I mean, am no Samsung fan boy. It is just that I edit many pdf docs on the go, and other TW apps are very useful as they bring the functionality and the precision of the S Pen... As I said. I even find stock GB smooth, so I believe ICS should feel like heaven for me.
BIG QUESTION = so, since the problem was the chip, not the stock kernel itself, and the only solution is a modification of kernel, surely Google will include the workaround in a new JB update, no?
I haven't updated OTA to ICS, because I was scared of bricking the phone, or something.... Are the updates incremental, or so I need to update to official ICS and then to JB, or will I be able to go straight to JB (official one)?
I think I might go for Kingdroid (ICS), or Sweet ROM... Though, I from reading their respective threads, I get the idea that less people have issues with Sweet ROM....
Thanks again...
Ota update from GB ROM is safe because GB kernel is safe. Or can download stock ICS from Dr Ketan and flash with pc odin. Then flash appropriate Philz kernel (can do it from stock recovery). You will then be on safe stock kernel (only brick bug is disabled) with advanced CWM recovery. Once on Phils u can backups/restores and flash any ROM u like. Just have to do full wipe before flashing new ROMs.

I was looking into Jelly Bean ROMs here, and I couldn't find anything that's working as I had hoped for.
Or I just didn't look through stuff on here in more detail.
So I was looking at some 'light' ROMs and found SlimBean, but it only seems to support i9000 (as listed here) whereas I'm running i9001.
Here comes the stupid question - would it work or not?
I kind of want to test that out, because the ROMs I used previously didn't have a working microphone (which I kind of needed for making calls) so I'm thinking this one would have a working one and would have a decent amount of Project Butter.
So anyway, what JB ROM would you recommend? It doesn't have to be 'slim', as long as most stuff works on it.
Hi,
most or nearly all roms wont work on your device. I found a nice JB Rom called Mackay Rom for my Samsung Galaxy S.
Its fast and stabil. If you find this Rom for your device, you could try it, he is updating this rom fast and the changes are nice.
Most JB Rom use CM10 as basis so the difference wont be that huge^^
None of the i9001 Jelly Bean ROMs are fully functional at the moment, as you have noticed. i9000 ROMs will not work on i9001, as it is a totally different phone. Only things we have similar is the screen, battery size and the form of the phone, CPU & GPU being different makes it impossible to use the same ROMs.
There is a lot of work to be done and a few talented people doing the work. Just keep on looking in the Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development, all progress will be posted in there. Pretty much the only JB rom we have is DoomNEXUS by Doomsday94.
There also is the I9001 Q&A section that these questions should be directed to.
Slim Bean Best one
I could not ask in a thread because rarely using account, but what is the latest stable release of jelly bean for N7000.
I am wanting to upgrade to jelly bean but cannot seem to find the correct place to find a stable rom for the phone can someone please help me. And you can tell me whats the differences between each of the stable roms.
Here is what you should do
1. Read the threads for the ROMs
2. Choose one you like

I did but there are so many roms i do not know which one choose
OK well if you want something based on Samsung's touchwiz interface go with one of the leaked JB roms...as for stability there are only a few so you can read the last couple pages of posts to figure that out
If you want a more pure android interface...and your main concern is stability...then use official cm10
If you like cm10 but want more cutting edge features experiment with other ROMs whether it be aosp aokp cm10 or based on one of those
Hope that gives you a good place to start

go to new rocket rom v1
Also try Chrack's latest: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1966485
I've got this as my daily driver and it's truly awesome!
Hi,
I'm sorry if I am repeating the same question as I can't figure out exactly what I am searching for...
With the i9300, I had cm10 installed. For me, less the cm enhancements, is just a stock jelly bean rom. Is there something similar for the i9305? Not looking for all the cm goodies, but just a stock google jelly bean experience.
Advance apologies for any possible redundancies, and appreciation for any suggestions.
Thanks.
Im looking for this too. I had the I9300 and loved the vanilla rootbox ROM and it was awesome. would love something like this if possible, dont really like all these customised ROMs with bloaty Uis
thanks
untill someone starts doing a device config for cm10 there wont be any yet,, im working on it but i doubt i can do it
damn
was hoping for some good news
Hi guys,
I'm using CyanogenMod 7.2, but it started to become painfully slow and it crashes almost every day. So I'm think about installing another ROM, but to be honest, after reading recent topics with custom ROMs, I really can't decide which one should I download. I would like to have an ICS or higher, but if there is a ROM on 2.3 that is way faster than any ROMs on 4.0 and higher, I can install the Gingerbread.
What are your recommendations? I'm currently interested in modded CyanogenMod 10.1, ImaGinary ICS Final and Touchwiz Revolutionised 5.0.
Thanks in advance!

Ok, I get it, but... how should I choose the best one - which is most suitable for me - when people can't express their opinions about different ROMs? Most of the posts in particular ROMs threads are related to some broken stuff etc., so it is hard to find same opinions.

hello, I cant answer your question, I can only give you an idea of what I experienced and read out there. Like all of us, you have to experience, have fun, and make your own evaluation, I begin to suggest you to choose spacecaker's rom , or you can get the stock rom with new kernel, andrenaline engine and Darktremor.
But dont stay with those, try some more a get back to tell us your opinion
Hope I helped

I completely agree with quashqool. U shud search n try n get a first hand experience yourself. Some users want battery life, some want performance and some want UI. So people review different ROMs differently. However I have created a thread to answer this and similar questions. You may try it here

I've tryed nearly every rom out there and too be honest I choose the ultimatum rom that's my opinion its the one that's been on my phone for the longest time with sgs2v11.2 comming a close second but that's my opinioin

The ROM Im Already Using Is Tw5 JB ROM (4.1.2 - 4.2.1) it is very fast and smooth and good looking ,it doesnt flash the kernel and it doesnt spend so much battery
ROM][CM10.1][S4 UI][UPDATE]Touchwiz Revolutionised 5.0 v2.0 [21.7.13]
Sky_Walker_Studios :good::good::good::good::good:
I'm using one of those that you mentioned: modded CyanogenMod 10.1 and then on top of it I installed PurePerformances™X.
I've tried Miracle V4 and M'rage. This setup seems better to me in every way, but that is just my opinion. It also depends if you like CM or stock roms..
