[Q] Questions About ROMs & Kernels..

My father has a Galaxy Note. I wanted to install the best ROM (Prefer Light/Lite size) with best Kernel which would give a Good battery life. Any advice ???
I've installed Chrack's Lite LC1 ROM (from here) Which has Franco kernel 9. But, having a few problems. Can't change Voltages for CPU (Using Voltage Control & SetCPU), The options are missing or Disabled. Having FCs while calling someone using phone dialer ("com.android.phone" FC), Network goes down & comes back later. Any way to fix these ???
Thanks...

It's all about cassie x with Franco test build . MAGIC.

Nobody can say the best rom because everything is best and it completely depends on the user what they like.For example I like darky rom very much and others may dislike it.
Maybe the OC/UV feature is not included in the kernel and there is no need for it because already the note is super snappy.The phone problem maybe due to improper flashing.Try factory reset or flash the rom again.If the problem persist report it on the rom's thread and the dev might try to solve it.

Darky roms are always super snappy and are known for better battery life.My sgs,sgsII and note all runs on darky rom only.If you want a basic install without any themes and only major tweaks go for base roms and if you need pre-themed and fully tweaked go for full rom.I'm sure you will enjoy the rom

ICS XXLPY vs XXLQ2

Is there any difference between XXLPY & XXLQ2 ?
Is XXLQ2 better than XXLPY ?

don't know about technical details, but on my device LQ2 seems to have much better battery life than LPY, in fact on LPY battery consumption was so unstable i went back to GB for a while

Yeah , thanks.
Just wanted to make sure if it's stable for me to update. So you'd advise me to update to ICS ?

They have the eMMc brick bug if you wipe data or factory reset...unless you use a custom kernel like franco or speedmod.

I have found myself getting more wakelocks with LQ2 , multipdp is taking up way more juice.
Changed the radio to a newer one and made no difference.
Only thing I have noticed is that I don't get pixel salad / garbled screen in LQ2 which I did in LPY now and then. Seems more stable to me.

Generally yes, after initial disappointment with LPY, i find the LQ2 with Franco kernel quite satisfactory (no revelations though), so I'm not going back to GB,
or you may want to wait for Samsung to release brick-free update - reportedly they're working on it (ETA unknown),
or wait for stable release of CM9, which should provide the best Android-experience ever

Thanks a lot !

Why you were disapointed by LPY? Im running it and it works just fine.
Does XXLQ2 has better battery life than LPY?

LPY worked ok, only battery consumption was much higher than on GB, and I could not find any way to make it behave. LQ2 -on my device - seems to have it solved (battery current usage in standby mode - with data off - below 10mA)

My Note is my daily driver and with LPY runs very good but battety life very poor after flash LQ2 my device runs more smooth and also battery life is better

Gingerbread or ICS Stock?

Good day everyone. I just want to ask you guys, especially those who are using stock roms, which do you prefer, stock ics or stock gb? I'm coming from PA by Utacka and I pretty much used custom roms from the start so i never actually used stock.
Please provide a reason as to why. I just want to have a stable rom while waiting for the official jelly bean update.
Thank you everyone.

there is no as such reasons to be on a particular ROM.. its each and everyones taste that keep them stuck to a particular rom,
as far as stock is concerned stock ICS rooted with a hydracore kernel works best for me

I would compare GB to windows XP. Sure it was good back in the day, but it's had it's run now and time to stay current. ICS has been released for a good while now and should have had all the bugs ironed out. Little things like the improved task switching (previews over icons), and swipe to dismiss notifications, while small differences make for a better experience over all.
A better kernal like hydracore to improve battery life and a stock ICS (or maybe back to rocketrom) would be what i would go back to if i was so inclined (i'm on utacka's PA at the moment too)

Thank you for the answer. My only intention is to have a pretty reliable phone so I can use my phone when it really counts. I hate that when I have to do something really important, I will encounter freezes or out of memory error that prevents me to actually multitask.
I haven't tried rocketrom but I am willing to try that. My only fear is if it will lag after few days of use. My boss' phone which is sgs2 would go for days or months without a reboot and he is on stock gb. He doesn't know anything about smartphones in general so he thinks he is using a regular phone, and he is pretty happy about the phone's performance. I just want the same experience.
Thank you.

ICS 4.0.4 without hesitation especially with interducing of safe kernel

Flash stock ICS 4.0.4 via PC Odin (the new one like xxlrt or ddlr9) then flash safe stock kernel like PhilZ kernel for your new rom from (also via odin or cwm): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1901191
And thats it!! Full stock, very smooth (compared with older 4.0.4), and most important it is perfectly stable, and everything works.
I only aded a call recording mode beacause I realy need it.
Hope that help!

Okay I'll look into that. Someone suggested about Rocketrom, do you think that Rocketrom could perhaps be more stable and faster than fully stock ( except kernel maybe) xxlrt or ddlr9, and do everything work on that? Files are too large for touchwiz roms so i want to know more about different types of rom before doing some flashing. I won't have so much time this coming months so I really want a reliable phone. Thanks a lot.

I dont want complaining on certain rom, but if you ask i will say my opinion on rocketrom. It is a good and stable rom, i have used it with hydracore kernel and dont find any problems with in about 2-3 weeks of use. But it is based on xxlrq which i found a bit laggy for me (the same story is for completly stock xxlrq). I dont know which is a difernce in xxlrq compared to xxlrt (some says the diference is only in kernel but i dont know).
So i was tired of flashing and stuff and decided to go on completly stock, picked up a latest xxlrt and whoaa, great. The reason why i am on lrt because my note is from german, i think that same story is for indian lr6 and lr9.
Then the story begins:
-Flashed stock GB xxlc1 via pc odin
-full wipe
-flash stock ics 4.0.4. xxlrt via pc odin
-root (dr.ketans guide) - only because of callrecord mod
-first flashed hydracore 4.3std kernel (also great kernel) and then philZ realesed his stock, emmc bug free kernel, so i flashed it.
Now used only a PhilZ kernel because it is completly stock with removed emmc brick bug. And for stock xxlrt rom it is perfect combination for me (just choose right kernel for your rom)
-Added only call recording mode
-settings > application > unninstalling aplications which i dont use ; > ALL > disabling (readers, music, social hub, etc...)
-And thats it!
Perfectly stable, smooth with great battery life, without any problem, FC or else. Without reboot for about 3 days (reason flashed Philz kernel 23.09)
Finally happy with my note :victory:
Hope that helped

Help me choosing a ROM, efficient, stable and good looking

Hi there,
I'm a proud owner of a galaxy ace and i found the vodafone stock rom too boring, slow, and the battery only lasts 1 day, so i've installed one 2.3.6 that i've found on sam firmwares website and it looks the same stock rom but i dont know why, the battery starts lasting 3-4 days |). However i was curious about cyanogenmod and i've installed the 7.2 nightly (last version), but the battery only lasts half a day-1 maximum, and i dont like the sms, phone and contacts app.
So i'm thinking about install the cyanogen 7.2 stable version or searching a new ROM, but as i dont know any other reliable, efficient, stable, without bugs and with a modern theme like ics. Can someone help me please?
PS: The ROM must have portuguese language support.
Thanks,
Best regards,
jOrGe.mRNh

Thanks a lot for your help!!
I've decide that i've gonna try the radonmod 2.5 fat, and if i dont like i'll go to the cm7.2 stable and if the battery problem remains, i'll go for the vodafone 2.3.6 S5830XWKT6. I've a doubt. I've installed the last ROM once with odin, can i install it by cwm?

Stock firmwares with odin, this will be your baseband.
Custom with cwm, some require a specific baseband, which is mentioned in the rom's thread, otherwise any baseband will do.
