a message and a question

morning (or evening depending on where you are!)
so my much beloved x10 mini pro died on me recently and ive taken to using my old m8800 at the moment. My lovely wife has told me she is getting me the galaxy mini for christmas (not too far away).
so just to fill you in im aware of how to root an android phone (superoneclick normally does the trick) and changed the rom on my mini pro several times. basically what im looking for is an opinion (advice if you will) on the best rom or roms for the galaxy mini. my intention is to change what will be the current stock 2.2 for something in a 2.3!!
any suggestions would be great as would any pitfalls to watch out for with what im sure will be a large amount of roms that are available.
many thanks
Jim

NOTE: SuperOneClick works only on 2.2. For 2.3 Upd_1.zip trick should work. You can find all custom ROMs in Development section of Mini. And I'm not sure which is the best ROM available. And as you are going for 2.3 you can find stock ROMs in sammobile.com
Good luck!

the galaxy mini i will be getting is running on android 2.2 so superonclick should be ok for the initial rooting of the phone, i understand that there may be a firmware upgrade to android 2.3.3 available through samsungs keis software but ill see what is around before i get the phone so i know what my choices are.
thanks for the response

No point in rooting froyo cuz ultimately u'll endup using cm7 most probably...so as soon as u get ur phone, update it to 2.3.4 via kies or Odin method...flash cwm and flash cm7.
Done deal.
Note: what I said here is not period.

You'll lose the root access (which is done in 2.2) when you upgrade to Android 2.3, just in case for info.

ROM Manager is not supported for Galaxy Mini. Those who had installed probably had screwed their phones. So stay away from it.

Well, i use srock 2.3.4... works fine. But, tried custom, and it slowed my phone down big time...

Thanks for your reply. Sorry im newbies

Cwm from ROM manager doesn't brick now.
But it works perfectly for some but not for others.

Yes, agreed with you. I think we need to manually override the installation of CLock Work Mod recovery to make Rom Manager Working after flashing latest CWM recovery manually using Odin.

[Q] Note on GB.. ICS Rom etc

HI guys,
First of all great to be part of this community. This is my first Android phone after being an IOS user since the original iphone. I just like change so decided to jump on the android wagon. i gotta say so far i love it i have HC on the 7plus tab and my note is on GB 2.3.6 xxla4a and i think its a saudi phone n700jpla1 kernel. Now here's the deal the note is new i didnt change anything so not rooted its unloccked though, now i want to install stock ics or the galaxy sIII rom.
Before you start bashing, i read a lot but it is so confusing i don't wanna mess up the phone. I just want the easiest way to flash stock stable ics build and root it. the IOS was very limited you only had to jailbreak and there was a site with all tutorials to do it. With android there are so many possibilities from what i read (custom roms and dif kernels) yet it's not all in one place.
So to sum it up if a kind soul can help me out i'll be very grateful.
Thanks

Please note thing first - You cannot flash a Galaxy SIII Rom on to the Note. You cannot flash ROMs of any other devices on the Galaxy Note. (You can try but that kind of an exercise would brick your phone instantly). Different phones have different ROM structures which are not interchangeable. In fact you have to ensure that you only flash ROMs for your particular model which is GT-N7000.

and if you want stock ICS better to wait for stable version

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1646088
The first post should help you get clarity on how to install ICS (specifically the LPY version) and root it.
BTW it would be advisable to stay with GB for now. There is a bug with the all ICS versions so far that might cause a fully bricked phone. Read about it in the stickied posts in the development section.

Thanks for the replies you just confirmed what i was afraid. i'll just stick to GB for now until the update rolls out on my phone evetnough i'm not sure i will get one soon. lastly i'm getting the s3 when it comes out.Going all in with Samsung

[Q] SGN Rooted. Which ROM now?

Hey, Sorry for the Noob question but I rooted my Note a couple of days ago (Still a Newbie) and was wondering which ROMs would be best to flash now.
I've been using the rooted phone but I couldn't find much of a difference in performance or anything. Actually, I don't even know how or what to remove to increase performance and battery life.
So if you guys could just help me out with this it would be real Helpful!
Question :
Which ROM is the easiest to work with? Since I'm a newbie I have a whole lot of chance that I might just do something stupid and end up with a Hard-bricked phone.
Any help is appreciated..!
Once again, I apologize for being a noob. I haven't really learned a lot about android phone since this is my first!

The first thing I'm going to ask you is, what is your current installed ROM? Stock GB or stock ICS?
If it's still in stock GB (2.3.6), I was using CheckRom Revo HD.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MQGdSuJBgRA
This video gives you some overview on what that ROM is capable of. (Video courtesy of the original maker: aphroditelikesme)
It gives you some customization while giving you a boost in your battery life. Please read and read on the appropriate forums here in xda on how to install and use this ROM (if you want to)
Now if you want to upgrade to ICS stock 4.0, then can upgrade your ROM thru the standard way, OTA or thru PC KIES. Either way, your phone gets updated with the official firmware and remains rooted still. You may want to check www.samfirmware.com for new official ICS firmware of your region.
On my personal note, I reckon ICS gives me much better life than when I was using GB. Don't forget to install the indispensable tools like Titanium backup so that you can freeze or uninstall samsung's bloatwares there by releasing some needed rams on your phone's memory and also increasing some juices on it.
Hope that helps bud and wish all the best!
Cheers!
PS. Don't forget the 'Thank' button if I have helped you in some way or the other..

Firstly, Thanks! I could use all the help I get!
Now, coming to the point. I am running Rooted Stock ICS 4.0.3 XXLP8.
Yes, I have installed Titanium Backup and have freezed some of the unusable Samsung applications which always kept running and slowed down my phone..!
I might flash GB for some custom ROM but I would prefer keeping it on ICS cause flashing GB and then some ROM would put me at a higher risk of bricking the phone.
Could you suggest some ICS based ROMs which might be easy for a first timer to handle?
I can flash other ROMs later when I am confident enough not to brick my phone.

Well, sorry to break your bubble bud but I'm not an ardent fan of custom ICS ROMS. I prefer the stock one for now. Personally Touchwiz ain't that bad (in my opinion).
Since your still using 4.0.3, try to just consider upgrading it to 4.0.4. By the way I am already on 4.0.4.
There are tons of stock firmwares for 4.0.4, depending on where your from. Try to use a kernel that's pretty much close to stock itself. I'm currently using SpeedMod v3.9 for now and I must say, From the stock kernel that I was using before (CF root LRG 4.0.4), the battery life on my phone have increased tremendously.
Now if you really still want to try out some other custom ROMS, you can try to read and read on this development thread here or get some reviews from other users as well.
JellyBean is almost a working ROM but I still prefer the stock 4.0.4 ICS one..why? let's just say I prefer to use my Note's 'all' features working and using it as a daily driver.
Cheers!

I don't think 4.0.4 is out in India yet (It wasn't there the last time I checked). I'll still keep checking in from time to time though and upgrade as soon as possible.
If I were to stay on 4.0.3 can I still use the SpeedMod v3.9 kernel you're talking about? Also, I could really use a link on how to flash the new kernel as you might have figured out by now, I'm a Newbie

You can flash DXLRG (open germany) or the latest one (DXLRK) to just upgrade it to 4.0.4
For Asian release, I heard there's one already for SingTel but I'm not sure though if it comes with an Indian language pack on it.
Anyway, if you just want to stay on 4.0.3, YES you can still use SpeedMod kernel.** http://touristinparadise.blogspot.com/2012/05/samsung-galaxy-note-ics-download.html
Download the kernel to your SD card (internal or external)
Now since your rooted, download Mobile Odin, run it, grant access thru Superuser and go to the kernel section inside Mobile Odin pro and look for the kernel that you earlier saved from the download.
After that, just tap on flash firmware (inside Mobile Odin still) and that would restart your phone and once booted, you now have a new kernel already.

[Q] Looking for a CUSTOM ROM

Hello All,
I"m having a Galaxy GT-I9000, which was originally from Europe. The last update I got from samsung is 2.3.3 (GINGERBREAD.XWJVH). I dont think samsung will publish any updates for this model anymore.
I would like to go with the custom ROM, I know It's not so easy to as I say.
Is there any easy way to decide and install it ASAP. Plz guide me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks in advance

Actually this question was asked countless times already. I'm not trying to be smart or something like that but there are several similar threads already.
Try to look within this General Forum and in the Question & Answer Forum and you will surely get an answer.

Install slimbean. if unsatisfied try flashing others.

Just search a bit... http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=665.

Make a clean install of ICS333 2.0.1 ROM. The most stable and memory friendly ROM so far (ever). It's very fast also.
The JB roms are on par - try SlimBean or CM10 (but flash Semaphore 2.6.0 kernel on CM10). Don't try JB 4.2 - tt's very new . Wait 1-2 months for good releases.

without creating a new thread, but along the lines of this subject already, can I ask, if there are any custom rom's that include the official samsung email application? I know that's specific, but its for some testing..A port from another samsung device maybe,,,tia

I am very happy with Slim Bean. It is "slim", and very battery efficient. I could use a full battery charge on 3.5 days, with mail, sms and few phone calls.
Just be careful with the last version, 3.0, that has a battery drain problem. I can only get 2 days from a load.

I used RemICS 1.3.1. very good, but lags at times.

[Q] Going to flash to a safe rom on my Note GT-N7000 on 4.0.4 but i have questions

Hi Everyone
After waiting for a year now and it seems that Samsung didn't released any newer updates for my Note GT-N7000 at my country. I was hoping for them to release an update to prevent that "MMC_CAP_ERASE bug? that causes hardbrick" that i have been hearing around here..
But now i got tired of waiting and Now I want to try to root/flash to a safe custom rom, Since i am currently having some problems with my Note now. It's acting a little weird like apps not functioning properly and deleting a small MB file on Internal Memory it takes very long to get it deleted Annoying artifacts appearing during at Dark or Black scenes while watching a video. Using Earphones while watching a video the audio sometimes got muted itself then for a few seconds it resumes back with audio back on repeatedly.
I have only experience on rooting and flashing my Galaxy Tab GT-P1000 but i had a soft brick thanks to the person who posted misleading instructions that causes this to happen. But eventually i managed to recovered from the soft brick and successfully flashing to a JB custom rom
Yeah before you asked me "have you read this Important thread ? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1329360 " Yes I have already read everything on the first post by dr ketan at this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1329360

Android Version 4.0.4 Stock ICS.
Baseband version N7000DXLR1.
Kernel Version 3.0.1.5-N7000DXLR5-CL968032

The safest and easiest way to flash ROM and get ROOT at the same time is using Odin Mobile, which offers option for getting ROOT.
You can use Stock ROM LT4.
For most popular custom ROMs : Eybee1970, Team Union, Alliance, Sweet,
ThaiDai ROM for slim and mutillanguage, Glory ROM also for multilanguage with mods.
There are a lot of other good ROMs here, you have to read more to find out what suits better to your taste.

Hello there
I'm really sorry if i just break some of the rules here. I wonder if it's okay for me to just follow the recommended method 1A by dr ketan ? Now i am in PhilZ thread i suppose i have to find my own Galaxy Note Kernel Version first right ? which is DXLR5 so i guess i have to download this kernel here http://www.mediafire.com/?c2jmfqnwajw8ei1 .PhilZ-cwm6-DXLR5-OLB-v3.99 Then flash it in the menu called Stock Recovery (VolumeUP+HOME+POWER button)
I found out that my Baseband version has a DXLR1 in there. Should i be worry on this ?
The PhilZ kernel file listed v3.99 there. my Kernel Version is 3.0.1.5-N7000DXLR5-CL968032, Example when i managed to flash that kernel. I guess that my Kernel Version will changed to like 3.9.9.9 am i right ? or it is not okay to just flash to latest updated kernel like v3.99 ?
I hope it's okay to just answer my newbie questions here. I need someone to help me and tell me whether if i did it right or wrong.
Thank you very much

Now i am in PhilZ thread i suppose i have to find my own Galaxy Note Kernel Version first right ? which is DXLR5 so i guess i have to download this kernel here http://www.mediafire.com/?c2jmfqnwajw8ei1 .PhilZ-cwm6-DXLR5-OLB-v3.99 Then flash it in the menu called Stock Recovery (VolumeUP+HOME+POWER button)
I found out that my Baseband version has a DXLR1 in there. Should i be worry on this ?
The PhilZ kernel file listed v3.99 there. my Kernel Version is 3.0.1.5-N7000DXLR5-CL968032, Example when i managed to flash that kernel. I guess that my Kernel Version will changed to like 3.9.9.9 am i right ? or it is not okay to just flash to latest updated kernel like v3.99 ?
I hope it's okay to just answer my newbie questions here. I need someone to help me and tell me whether if i did it right or wrong.
Thank you very much

No problem when you see :
- Baseband DXLR1
- Difference between 3.99 and 3.0.1.5-N7000DXLR5-CL968032.The first is the Philz own version, the second is the Samsung one.
It's normal.

[Q Number 1]
I have already read everything on the first post by dr ketan. I notice there's so many of methods to root the Note. But I'm not sure which one is the safest and easiest method to Root and Flash Hopefully someone here is kind to guide me through the process since this is my first time rooting and flashing on a Note GT-N7000 running on Android 4.0.4 Stock ICS.
[Q Number 2]
There's tons of JB custom roms everywhere! I'm not sure which one is the best and popular one. I'm looking for a fast and stable Jellybean custom rom that are currently available for my Note GT-N7000.
I will be waiting and checking this thread regularly

1.As far as rooting method is concerned on said thread, all the methods are safe. there are pros and cons of different method and already mentioned on thread.
I do recommend 1A, as it will root device as well gives you protection from brick bug and without raising flash counter too. So in case you want to go that way, download LR5 philx kernel in zip version and flash from stock recovery.
2.See ROM selection is totally depends on own taste, you can never rely on others answer, but best way go through OP of custom ROM thread, read features mentioned, read some reviews/bugs and try it yourself. that's the only and best way.

First of all, Dr Ketan Thank you very much for helping me with this. I really appreciate your help Yeah i understand what you're trying to mean about that custom ROMs I will take a look at all of them later.
But now I want to see if i got it right again. I will flash it after you give me the final confirmation i need :victory:
1. Find my own stock Kernel build code DXLR5 then go to PhilZ thread and find PhilZ Kernel that listed my Kernel code which is PhilZ-cwm6-DXLR5-OLB-v3.99 then download it After that Connect a USB cable to the computer + Note then copy the PhilZ kernel and place at Root dir of External microSD card then turn off Galaxy Note, then hold VOLUME UP + HOME + POWER button for a few seconds to boot in Stock Recovery Menu then flash it at there. am i right ?
Last question here, Finding a Custom Rom that suit my needs might take awhile since i haven't read all of them yet. But i wonder if it's okay to stay in Stock ICS Android 4.0.4 + PhilZ Kernel ?

1.Yes, but remember you have to select zip version of kernel not tar
obviously there is nothing wrong to stay on stock with safe kernel till you couldn't find out best custom ROM for you.

Okay Yeah i got the signed version instead of that .tar version which is for ODIN.
Good News! i just flashed it and it works! I have SuperSU application installed. I really appreciate all your help that you have done dr ketan thank you very much. Now i have PhilZ CWM kernel. does it uses the same buttons to activate it like the stock recovery ? VOLUMEUP+HOME+POWER BUTTON,
