they say that ketuts blackhawk kernel is pretty good ( but not the best as best kernels dont exist)
and what do u mean by ics for ace ??? i guess we already have cm9 beta 8
the camera issue may take a while though
agree with the prev post.cm9 is great,we just have to wait for the bug fix
Concerning the kernel, one that seems really promising is "The Ace Kernel beta 3.1" : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1606352
It has a lot of features, seems quite stable, even if still in beta.
Notice that it is not for stock roms : only for CM7 roms.
For ICS, there won't be an official release for the ACE. But some dev are working on compiling CM9 (based on ICS sources) for the ace. Look here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1490867
The main issue with this port, at the moment is that the camera is not working. In fact that's an issue a lot of CM9 roms are facing at the moment. So, it may take some time to be fixed, but the work done on this rom is simply amazing. It's worth a try.
Edit : If you want to ask generic question about this rom, use this thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1500234 as the one in the developpers section should be used only to report bugs, and things like that.

In my opinion something went went wrong when you flashed. Simply try again to wipe everything then flash again. I use this rom and flashed it on top of 2 other roms, and no problem for me.
I had issues after flashing some other roms, and I think they were caused by some other roms data not wiped before flashing

No ICS / JB rom either cm9 based or cm10 based offers a good battery life. If you want battery longetivity, the name is stock roms.

Choco bread is an old ROM, im not sure it will work on that, but it will definitely work on newer ROMS , even CM10 and 10.1
BTW why chocobread? There are so many other better ROMS. If you go to android development section you will find many better ROMs than chocobread. Hell, even cm10.1 works properly now (android development>>Bazinga ROM by The Alchemist)

I'm sorry to hear that. If your phone is still under warranty, flash stock ROM and take it to SSC. (Actually even if it not under warranty, take it to SSC to determine the cause of your problems- it could be hardware related...for all you know, you could have purchased a defective model)
As for the correct method to flash a ROM-
1) Boot into Recovery.
2) Wipe data, Cache partiton.
3) Go to advanced>>wipe Dalvik cache
4) Install update from sd card>>choose update>>ROM.zip
5) After flash wipe data and cache partition.
6) Reboot.
That's all.
Hope this helped. Best of luck in fixing your phone:fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:

i don't know its unlocked bootloader or not. how to ensure it?
have you posted the instructions?
which tools and instructions are mandatory for a clean install ROM.
i tried many time with CWM but it stuck my phone some months ago.
I can't not revert my ROM through on machine nor phone.
please advise the essential steps which will work 100% in all cases.

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.

If you have followed the instructions correctly then the most common problem is that you are not on eclair(2.1), but donut(1.6). Go to settings>about (or "about phone") and see the "baseband". If it doesn't end in 015 (xxx015) then that's what causing the problem.
Follow this guide to get to eclair (2.1) and try one more time to flash a custom rom, hopefully this time it will work:fingers-crossed:.
No i have 2.1 and the latest firmware,baseband etc...i want to try to flash nAa kernel for this rom but i am scared for another brick...can anyone tell me how to do this step by step?

Yeah, that's normal, custom kernels don't work with stock rom.
Don't let the phone to start.
Boot into CWM (while on kernel logo hit the back button repeatedly) and install the rom. Also make sure to full-wipe, follow the installation instructions.
yes but if i dont see any logo? If i only see black screen?

Mate, you are contradicting yourself.
At first you mentioned that you had soft-brick while flashing the rom, then you mentioned that you had problems while flashing the kernel.
At first you mentioned that you had stuck at the logo, then that you don't see the logo.
Lets make things clear, have you followed the installation instructions?
What have you done exactly and were is your problem?
Have you ever booted on CWM?
If you read my first post again then you will find a guide about how to revive your x8 from soft brick, use it.
Look...i have tried 4 times...i only stuck at the kernel flashing...1 time with freexperia kernel i stuck on logo of fxp kernel...the other times with other kernels (i think alf and nAa (the wrong)) i only see black screen and vibration...i know how to revcover my phone...i flash mother rom with flashtool...i use only cwm...i know this things

If you mean the one that you can download from cm site then I think its better to consider flashing another cm7-based rom as there are better options.(like gingerdx, minicm, etc)
If I remember correctly this rom needs the FXP kernel.

Generally speaking, you will find this info at the first post of the rom's thread you want to flash.
Typical procedure for cm7 based roms is the following:
flash kernel(if the rom requires stock kernel you just skip this step, in other cases you flash the kernel that the rom works with)
boot into cwm
full-wipe(factory reset, wipe dalvik cache)(no need to wipe battery stats unless you have a problem with the battery percentage)
flash rom
(optional)flash gapps
first boot may take up to 2 minutes...
Ok..thanks... have you any suggestions for me but for roms with stock kernel...
