[Q] Need help reverting back. - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys, I recently flashed OmniROM on my phone which needed a raw r4 kernel with Selinux support but this ROM has been giving me problems so I decided to revert back to 4.3 or maybe 4.2.2.
I wanted to know how if there a particular set of instructions I need to follow to get it back to a TW based ROM from the AOSP. I tried searching but all of the Rom threads give instructions to go from TW to AOSP but not the other way round.
If you could add the link of any required Kernel with the answer it would be greatly helpful. If not, its okay too. I will search for it
Also, a few suggestions would be welcome as to which Rom should I flash. I mainly require a ROM which is both stable and battery friendly.

If you want to go back to Touchwiz, you will first need to flash philz kernel & recovery (unfortunately I can't post the link on this app but its easy to find here), then reboot recovery and flash your TW ROM. As for my personal opinion, definitely AryaMod, it is both feature packed _and_ quick, with the advantage of a buttery smooth launcher.

[Q] Kernel/Rom Selection & Me

So I ordered a Galaxy Note 1 yesterday, and i am pretty sure I wanna root& put a custom rom on it.
Right now, i tried to find the right rom for me, which turns out to not be that easy, since there seem to be many good roms &kernel combination
Its simply not "clear" which one is the best, nor is there a comparison table or anything that would help a noob to know about advantages of different roms without actually trying them.
I read many threads, but I found out that there are a lot of fans of all those roms, so that i am not able to decide what to choose...
Maybe you could give me a hint, which rom/kernel is nice for my needs which are the following:
1) I would like to use "google now" since i like to test voice assistance
2) I am exited about project butter, since i want a very fluid/smooth feel when swiping homescreens, also want this "animation" when swiping through screens like with the s3
3) I want this s3 typical live wallpaper with those waterdrop effects (has nothing to do with the rom, does it? )
4) I want to use the pen and those apps (at least until I find out i dont use it as often as i think...) so I would like to have the galaxy note 2 experience on my galaxy note, speaking newest Touchwiz ?! (since i think some pen functionality get lost when using some roms..)
5) I saw there are roms, which support this tablet/hybrid more, so you can select for each app if you want it in tablet or smartphone view, i like that very much, would be cool to have it!
6) I am noob at all this, but whatever you suggest, I will read into it and spend a lot of time doing it the right way or as you say and succeed with it
7) I like easy upgrade mechanics, so if there is something new out for this type of rom, it would be cool to be able to update this from my phone without the initial tools needed to get root/flash/custom rom it (dont know if this is even possible)
8) German language support would be a nice to have, but not a must have...
Based on those needs, which combination would you suggest to me kernel/rom wise?
Advice is very very appreciated!
Regards, James

There are mods to get google now on any rom but i guess project butter can be experienced only on jb
You can get all spen apps on tw based custom roms and some apps are available on non-tw based roms but not all
There are many cm roms that support tablet mods like paranoid android
And on any rom,the best kernel is hydracore..Its an universal kernel and can be flashed on any rom
I'd say the best for you is stock Samsung JB (Android 4.1.1).

Thanks rajsekhar!
So lets say I would use hydracore and as a rom i have tot decide between a tw rom and paranoid android rom.
1) In the hydracore thread its seems that gavin the main developer is stopping his work, does this mean i should not use his kernel? Or does he have something "finished" released? Like completly without bugs, that can be used for the next year or so?!
He said in his thread:
If CM and AOSP type roms continue down this path then unfortunatly Hydra will be coming to an end.
So, on this note, when v6.1 final is released on friday (still more testing to do) i think I shall be calling it a day and cease all development activities for the Note.

If I should not use this Kernel because of this, which alternative is there?
2) If you suggest the paranoid android rom, you mean i should stick to this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1871713 ,right?
3) I cannot find the thread for the TW based-ROM do they also have a thread in this forum?!
Thanks so far, and in advance!

In this Thread its stated that I should make sure to run CM9 before I try to flash this ROM to avoid a brick, so I guess I have to do something else before...
To be honest, I feel a little bit helpless with all those FAQ´s which Link to other threads which include further FAQ, there is no clean way to follow even after reading all those threads...
What I have done so far is:
- have donwloaded the correct hydracore v5.4 kernel
- downloaded samsung USB driver and installed it
- downloaded "gapps-jb-20120726-signed.zip"
- downloaded "pa_n7000-2.17-04OCT2012-130953.zip"

So with the aim of using hydracore 5.4 with paranoid android on it, and I expect gb on my note when i receive it today:
What are the steps to take?!

There are no tw jb roms
If you were on gb and interested in stock 4.0.4,then go to settings<about phone<software update.Then you will be updated to 4.0.4 through ota
If you wish to flash paranoid android or any other rom,then follow this guide to get root and cwm

Yes, I guess i will first test stock 4.0.4 but at first sign of underperfomance / stuttering, i guess i will try to follow your linked guide!
Will 4.0.4 run faster if I would take a TW Rom from the forum? Or will I only get "butter smooth" feeling through Jelly Bean Roms? What are your experiences?
Thank you very much for your help

[Q] Time for a new ROM - noob questions...

Ok, so my P1000 (stock Gingerbread, bought SIM-freeon and currently on Vodafone UK) has become soooo slow over the past two years of ownership, and a minor water contact today forced a factory reset... So a clean JPZ based Tab to play with...
Been toying with the idea (in hope for better performance) to get a custom ROM from here, maybe one based on ICS (if the hardware can take it), but after a couple of days of reading through all the posts and threads, I confess I am at a complete loss: can anyone recommend a stable working ROM (even if essentially based on stock images) that could/should improve the tired tab's performance? Also, not clear: do most ROMs here come with rooting or do I then need to apply CFRoot separately? Lastly, at the time of my last post (way way back), Overcome ROMs seemed to be the way to go, but today their site is down?
Please be gentle, though I understand the basics, I am indeed a novice in this arena

Great, many thanks, downloading now... As a follow up, I understand this is their version of 2.3.6 (Gingerbread); don't want to be a , but was wondering if there's an ICS ROM out there for the P1000? Also, is overclocking possible on the Overcome ROM? (the idea is to try and get a device that actually runs better than stock GB, so not even sure if the hardware is up to speed with ICS)
Again, thanks and apologies for the q's, got more confused reading through the posts than I was before
There are AOSP based ICS/JB
Just look for them in dev section.
Either CM or AOKP.
You still need overcome kernel to have cwm first in order to flash them.
kernel, not ROM, OK?
Overcome should be overclockable.

[Q] Need help to understand efs/imei-restoring guides(GT-i9000) (noob-alert)

-
This was the original post:
When I flashed to slimbean, my smartphone stopped being a telephone. The simcard didnt work.
I have read a lot of guides, and from what I understand, I think my efs has been corrupt.
Problem is: I don't understand what that means. All guides I can find are very technical with lots of abbrevations and really hard to understand for a root/rom-noob like me.
Here's what I did to ruin things:
1: used odin to update from eclair to 2.3.6
2: used CF-Root to install slimbean
This process took me about five hours.

Use the most simple step first. I think it's the copy-paste step, clear caches, then reboot. It worked for me (my IMEI was modified too previously when i flashed a JB Rom).
If it didn't work, follow the more complicated step.
Good luck.

The copying didn't work. I copyed from sd/backup/efs, and then turned off the phone, reset caches.
I didn't have the nv.log file in either folders though. I also tried copying the whole folder.
So now I'll try the 2nd solution:
go back to GB 2.36, use a JVU ROM + Root, upgrade to ICS CM 9 and then to CM10
New question:
I know how to get GB 2.36 and root it, but how do I "upgrade to ICS CM 9 and then to CM 10"? And what is a JVU rom?
Tooooo many abbreviations!!111!1!

Thanks a LOT for the help.
If i understand you correctly:
I have now flashed to 2.36 using CODE_I9000XXJVU_CL851880_REV03_user_low_ship.tar
Then i rooted it using CF-Root-XX_OXA_JVU_2.3.6-v4.3-CWM3RFS
can i now flash a CyanogenMod 9 ROM "safely"?
I must say: i really love the kind and helpful spirit of the opensource community and this site. shoutout to y'all! :victory:
EDIT:
By the way: when I am done with all this, I'll need a new rom. If anyone know a rom with the features i want, please let me know:
* fast, and without bloatware
* all the features of stock
* no background programs using the data/internet
* swype
I know I could customize this myself, but if theres allready a rom good to go with these features, that would save me some time.

now you can flash cm9 folow by cm10.
BTW what does you mean by all the features for stock? from what i know is samsung Kris and FM donnot come with the rom. for FM you can use spritFM.
For no background programs using the data/internet --> you can do it this way if you are om cm10,1, go to setting --> Data Usage -->select the app you want to restrict background data and done.

As Samtan4326 wrote: just flash CM9 then CM10.
But don't forget to save your IMEI when its possible. You could use ADB -> have a look at forum.
I'd suggest that you make a backup of your current ROM with the ROM Manager app or CWM Recovery. Use ES Datei Explorer to get the backup file from ROM Manager directory to your external card and then by Phone Explorer to your PC. Then you'll be able to flash it back anytime you want.
For a fast start: I personally like the original CM ROMs (cyanogenmod.org) or CM based ROMs. (Our devs are incredible!) They're generally based near stock ware, stable, fast and have low battery drain.
But you'd think about a custom Kernel, too. ROM and Kernel work together.
Take regard of the build: stable, RC, Beta, Alpha, Nightly... Have a look at what the devs tell you about working features and not-working...:fingers-crossed: Try what fits you best.
Yeah, this community is great!

Hopefully you already succeeded recovering your imei and flashed a base Rom CM9 or CM10.
You mentioned you wanted a Rom fast and without bloatware, with gesture typing.
I can only suggest you try this Rom based on pure Google AOSP, proven fast and battery friendly:

[Q] ROM Options...

Hey guys and gals,
Noob here, only installed 1 or 2 ROM's in the past, but I would now like a hand deciding on a suitable ROM for my needs on my Galaxy Tab P1000 (UK/European)
I would like a ROM that is nice and responsive, has good battery life and is fairly customisable, and I guess most come already rooted? I would prefer it to be ICS or JB too I have looked about and seen a few CM10 ones, some MIUI ones and various others but I am lost for choice, I have no idea what ones are best.
I want everything to work (all wireless connections, camera etc...) don't mind things like auto brightness or similar as that isn't major. The main reason for wanting to change from the stock gingerbread is because I find it unresponsive and boring.
Sorry if this is in the wrong section, thought Q&A was my best bet.
Thanks,
Cam.
Actually your best bet is to try them out yourself. All criteria are subjective.
Sent from my GT-P1000 using xda app-developers app
Ok matey, will have a play!
Thanks,
Cam.
Hey again,
Quick question,
For the MIUI v4 ICS ROM, which I like the look of alot, it needs a "restock" and install Overcome or a CM9 guide to be followed. (ROM link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1613842 )
However, do I still need to do this as I haven't already installed any custom ROM? If I do can you give me a feint idea how I can approach it? Or can I just wipe cache/data etc.. and install the ROM?
Sorry if I am being a pain, not had to do any of this before.
Thanks,
Cam.
Many has your problem.
The thing is, newer ( well, post April 2012) ROM use new MTD layout, which need you to come from stock, or from same layout.
If your custom ROM were GB, no issue. They are stock BML partition, which the new rom can convert upon install.
If it were cm9 or 10, watch the mtd layout. The installer isn't made to convert older mtd to new mtd, so need restock.
Sent from my GT-P1000 using xda app-developers app
Ok so as I have no custom ROM at all I need to restock to new layout. No problem, just wanted to know if it was necessary for me to do it.
Thanks for your help,

Think I have got it, can someone please confirm my steps to make sure I am doing it right?
1. Flash latest CWM recovery using Odin
2. Make Nandroid backup using CWM
3. Flash GB-stock-safe, then flash Overcome kernel 4.0.0.tar using Odin for both (do I do these separately or is there a way to flash them together?)
4. Place MIUI v4 ROM and GApps etc.. on Tab's SD card.
5. Boot into recovery, wipe cache, wipe data and flash ROM.
6. Flash GApps and patch's etc...
7. Reboot into ROM
If it doesn't reboot into MIUI I need to reflash the ROM as the first flash converted my Tab to MTD? Is that correct?
Hopefully I have got it,
Thanks in advance,
Cam
Actually, am I right in saying CWM isn't fully supported on P1000? What recovery should I use?
Sorry for all the questions again,
Cam.
Cwm is contained in kernel.
If you are willing to forgo backup, must start with GB stock safe v5
Then overcome kernel.
By then you have a cwm recovery.
Sent from my GT-P1000 using xda app-developers app
Got it all installed/flashed last night. Went all ok and I worked out that the kernel included overcome cwm after reading a guide from the link in your Sig.
I suppose its good that I love the ROM too
Thanks for the help, appreciate it.

[Q] Double Tap on screen to wake up?

Guys I am actually stock at the moment but doubletap to wake up screen is the feature
which I really want on my M7, I read some where long time ago that it was not possible on

The above kernel needs a GPE L Rom.
I am thinking of rooting and installing a custom rom now, I wanted to ask what rom should I
download in order to get this feature since I am new so I have no idea what a GPE L rom is.
Thanks in advance and sorry if its a noob question!!

[ROM] ★☆★Nocturnal GE CDMA-Lollipop|5.0.1|12/27/14|★☆★
It is vanilla android meaning it does not contain any sense elements. This has been built into to many roms and kernels over the past 18 months if you prefer sense my stock sense rom has this built in

As thick said, most custom kernels do come with double tap to wake, aka dt2w.
I'm assuming you know the procedure for rooting and flashing a ROM.
In order to get dt2w, first flash a ROM of choice. Boot up, and set it up according to your liking. Then, find a compatible kernel (we can help you with that), and flash that. Boot up again, make sure (in your phone's settings) that the kernel flashed successfully, then download a kernel tuning app like TricksterMOD and go into "Screen Wake Settings."
Note: some kernels may use AROMA, which lets you configure dt2w while flashing. The above should still apply if you want to change your settings later on.
Thick's ROM comes with it built in, but most other ROMs don't.
Happy flashing, and remember, ask twice, flash once.
I appreciate it!!
I rooted and played around with different Roms on my previous phones e.g. HTC Hero, NS4g, and Evo4G
but since my HTC one is still being updated via OTA officially I didn't proceed with rooting yet.
I really wanted DT2w feature and I don't think any update would give me that feature so that's why
I am thinking about rooting my phone. I really appreciate your help since you said you can help with
choosing a kernel please go ahead and suggest a good kernel and few feature rich/stable Roms.

I would suggest SD 12 since it's on the latest base (.12, which has some important bug fixes) and it's relatively close to stock.
Along with that, I would suggest using ElementalX 18, which is one of the more easy Kernels to set up. It uses AROMA, so you don't have to download any apps to adjust your settings later. I had a good experience with the battery saving/thermal throttling/undervolting settings (you'll see those come up when you try to flash it). I don't recommend messing with the clock settings, however.
Wipe (default wipe in TWRP), flash ROM, boot, set up, go into recovery, flash kernel, reboot, wait, reboot again. That's the procedure I follow.
I appreciate it!!

I have finally rooted my phone and I am in process of trying different roms at the moment, I tried to flash the ElementX18 kernel on my stock rooted rom but the installation failed so Now I am going to install SD12 which you mentioned and then flash the ElementX18 kernel. Since you mentioned you had a good experience with thermal throttling/undervolting can you please give me safe or your values so I can give them a shot as well. Thank you

EX 18 is a 4.4.3 kernel, you probably used it on a 4.4.2 ROM. A 25 mV undervolt with "run cool" setting would be good.

Yes you are right I was trying it first on my stock rom which was 4.4.2 if I am not mistaken that was the last official OTA
update for me. I am on SD 12 ROM and EX18 Kernel at the moment and loving it. I tried SlimKat which was not bad but for some reason I couldn't fix the resolution of the screen everything was too small for me (icons,fonts etc). Latest Liquid Smooth didnt recognize my sim card so I had to move away from it. It seems like for now SD12 is going to be my daily driver.
In case if I want to give SlimKat another shot can I use EX18 on it or it's only a sense kernel? also SlimKat is 4.4.4 so what good kernel can you suggest which will give me DT2W option?

EX18 is sense only.
And sorry, I don't really know about nonsense stuff.
