Some ROMs (including stock) are a little laggy for our tab. In my opinion, C-O-M's cm10.1 and addem123's cm9 or PA do a better job with lag. None are perfect, but that's the best we can do on this tab, for now, and these ROMs are being developed actively, so they will continue to improve.
Also, overclocking any of these ROMs will help.

And also when i put a new rom do i have to wipe dalvik cache also? Because i have recently place 2 roms all which i wiped dalvik cache is that why ii doesnt have wifi?

Cm 10.1 is jb. You should wipe cache and dalvik before you flash a ROM. Try flashin back to stock, then flash the cwm from com's thread, then make a backup, wipe, and flash the ROM and gapps.

[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.

Thanks for the quick answer. I hit thanks

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!!!

It's great you've got a note 2... my note has also started to lag as hell... I am thinking for a motherboard replacement.. to solve my lags.. hehe...

Flashing between roms without wipe the data and cache

Hi all,
I am currently using CM10.2. I am happy with it, but I might need MHL for somehow. Can I flash back and fore between CM10.2 to Stock without wipe my cache and data and I get
1, stable enough to run on both ROM
2, Personal data still good(still keeping like whatsapp history, contact data etc)
I am not brave enough to test by myself, hope anyone can help. Thanks
Mike

You can try it but you will for sure get a bootloop, especially with stock and custom rom. This way you are maybe able to change between custom ROMs with same android version, but stock is older than CM 10.2.

What you mean of bootloop is that you can't even make the device running without wipe?? Hey man, If I have the guts to try I will not ask. Haha..=)
Thanks anyways..

That's what I meant the differences between android version are to big and especially if you have a stock and a custom rom. Too many files/file paths are different and your system will screw up. It will boot, show the LG logo and reboot. That's why every single custom rom thread has the wipe part in it's instructions.
Like I said you can try it but I see no chance. I did it once between two custom ROMs (both CM 10.1) and even that didn't work out good.
It booted but every single app and system itself force closed repeatedly.

I'm quite partial to Carbon ROM, however it's Android 4.4.2

Holoblur would be the best AFAIK.

Would suggest to go for Mexico retail stock one.Its the best stable every seen by me.

Here is a few stock roms flashable with cwm: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2209660
Search around the Dev section a bit and try a few out, only you can decide which one is best.

I tried HoloBlur and HoloBlur X,but I kept getting a "Status 7" Error. Anyone have any ideas why? Ive tried everything I could think of. Everything else installs fine.

Status 7 error can occur if you are not running the latest recovery or you have a bad download.

Flash firmware
<----- Click Thank Its Easy

How to it won't enter Download Mode or Recovery mode...

That guide got little problem , flashing twrp using odin is for gingerbread, in jelly bean use cocore kernel for twrp and i also got same experience with you but i get into download mode and flash frimware http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/3/?download=29206 again to fix it .Download the file first and try go into download mode anywhere and flash it ,if cannot go to phone repair shop

Why would you follow such a tedious guide to get TWRP, when you can just flash CoCore kernel with twrp? Well now just try to get into download mode and flash stock jb again.

OK guys thx will try CoCore kernal... I am able to get into Download mode sometimes so guess will flash Stock Firmware from sammobile...
After Stock Firmware=>CoCore Kernal=>Custom ROM
Hope this time it goes right...

In the future look for guides here on XDA, not on some third party sites... You have all explained here, just look good and read.
For future - do not flash GB kernel over any other ROM than on STOCK. Do not flash CM kernel over Stock JB, do not flash stock or CoCore kernel over CM based ROMs.

Hi,
Thx for the info..
Well the future one went a bit in air.. Guess I'll have to read more to understand more.. Will do that..
Till then can you tell me whether Flashing EHNDROIX V on Stock Firmware with Cocore Kernel will be good?
Thx a lot...

Well but they didn't mention we can do that with stock recovery so not sure about it..
Can you help me with CWM recovery if there's any for this phone, I found a temporary one but don't know it would be helpful or no... I've used CWM earlier on a phone...
CoCore if is hassle free then will go with that.. Coz another run dunno how it would turn out to be... :cyclops:

Thx a lot guys..

I have installed the ehndroix v ROM... They have Superuser built in, so no need for SuperSU.. Thats good..
Now when I use Titanium BackUp, it says the su binary is outdated.. So where to get the new su binary from? how to confirm what version it is and how to update? I know Superuser is not into this, its just a management tool.. So how do I get about it?
Thx in advance

If TB is working then no need to update it...

Ok Thx.. Yes it seems to work.. Like it verified the backups and restored it too.. atleast it started the installer and I did install..
BTW seems all the features I use are working n this Firmware.. However is there a better option than Nova Launcher, I tried GoLauncher but didn't like it much compared to Nova....
Also I found FM Radio missing in this firmware and also the default Music app.. I installed default Music one from F-Droid and also one from PlayStore but where do I get a tuned in Radio? All are internet based... Spirit FM is very expensive... Can you help me to find the stock one for this...
Thx in Advance..
One Learning, since I'm new to Android (correct me if wrong), Dalvik cache can be cleared at will if you want to force android to rebuilt the apps cache for faster loading.. Right?

There is no other FM radio for CM based ROMs. Only Spirit FB, and there is free version too. Look on XDA for developers thread.
You can clear Dalvik cache, and it will rebuild after reboot. But there is cache already, so I think it will not speed up loading more.

Ok so guess, won't be doing the wipe frequently...
Will search xda for Spirit Free...
Last question:
Which launcher do you suggest?
Thx..
