[L7]Looking for a functional ROM - Optimus L3, L5, L7 General

Hi everyone
I am trying to find a good custom ROM for my wife's L7, as stock ROM sucks.
Currently with CM11, but it has insane battery draining.
Any version compatible with v20 baseband would do, just needs to have good battery life, REALLY bug free and reasonable performance.
Thanks in advance for your help. Cheers!

v20 based ROMs (Kikat) is still reaching its stability.
You can check out AOSB, I just have a 1% battery drain overnight on my L5. You should be able to achieve the same on L7.
v10 based ROMs have better battery and is more stable.
You might want to try our newly released Project L based on Android L developer preview.

Yes, it'll work.
Volume Down + Volume Up + Home + Power. Press the power until it vibrates, then release the power button.

So with v10 baseband, what would be the best rom?
Thank you

Your choice There's plenty of it :

- CM10
- AOKP
- Many themed ROM

Thanks for the reply but that combo doesn't work for me now. It used to work before.
What works for me is, volume down + power then when capacitive lights turns on press the menu and release the power when vibrate.
Why is it, it works for you and not mine. Is the combo depends on every Rom, boatloader or recovery?
Right now I'm on cm11 by imer and recovery from al. Filth philz touch.

If you want a more stable Rom, go with cm10.

Yes, official CM10 is good for daily.
There's plenty ROM, but this is my picks :
> Paranoid Android
> Avatar ROM
> AOKP
> SlimBean

it depends on bootloader settings
i found out when unlocking bootloader on my L3 II
used to be vol- and power
now its
1. PRESS AND HOLD "HOME" BUTTON
2. PRESS "VOL-" AND "POWER" BUTTONS TOGETHER FOR ~2.5-3 SECONDS AND RELEASE
3. KEEP HOLD OF "HOME" BUTTON UNTIL RECOVERY BOOTED

hehehe i just quoted myself xD
so depending on where did your unlock come you might have different combos to get in
PS. thats not 100% correct as some of the users of my unlock reported the combo not working ..
so i guess there is more than 1 cause for combo to work or not

combo is before APPSBL, it's either in QCSBL / OEMSBL

Well, installed AOSB and will see how it fares. Hope it's stable enough for her not to bother me for a while...

Either QCSBL nor OEMSBL were changed on my phone yet the combo changed after flashing 3 partitions
1 bootloader
2 boot
3 recovery
so there must be more to it

Your saying either of these partitions reside the combo?
As far as I remember, I haven't change bootloader since I unlock it. So I assume the last 2.
Maybe some expert can explain this. Calling..... [emoji337]

Okay, I'll explain it clear and logically based on my findings.
These combos are also defined in kernel, they're called 'melfas_*randomnumbers*_DOWNLOAD' and 'melfas_*randombumbers*_ts' (If I get the name right).
They contain :
- Combos, unknown
- Download mode combos (Emergency mode combos, etc)
So it might be possible that flashing kernel changes combos, on CM10.1 I need to press Vol + and Home then power to enter recovery.
Then, doesn't kernel loaded after bootloader ? Why does kernel have connection with combos ?
Good question, right ? My answer are :
The bootloader actually only loads kernel. So, the boot process are actually :
Bootloader > Kernel decompress > Loads either the kernel itself or recovery or download mode > Enters the mode.
Then if this is wrong, my second guess will be :
The recovery and kernel defines it's own combos.
While this is not the best guess, I'm guessing this happens :
Bootloader > User press any key combos that's defined in recovery on kernel > Either recovery or kernel will be unpacked.
AFAIK, this is only guessing, corrections is welcome

3-buttons combo fix galaxy note

hello guys !
I really need help.
my galaxy note has blocked for some reason and I cannot go into download mode or recovry by using 3buttons (vol up/down + home + off)
apart of it everything is working (my curently rom is imilka v8)
how can I fix it ?
I will be glad for help !
regards
michal
Maybe your phone is not totally off before you do 3 buttons. Try to remove and reinsert battery to ensure it is totally off then repeat the procedure. Hope this helps.

@kopitalk - Well you don't require to be off for using the 3 buttons combo for recovery. Anytime press the combo in any screen and keep them pressed till the time the Samsung GT N7000 logo comes up and leave all of them then. it will boot in recovery.
But since its not happening here with nowy57 so the best bet will be remove battery (as suggested by kopitalk). Leave for 2-3 mins and then insert and then try going to recovery mode!!
Use a jig to see if it helps

Does your all three button works separately? I mean it is not defective when you using as routine use?
just check it.

I think, your bootloader is corrupted, which won't replace with 'PDA'.

Personally i don't have experience of it, this is just my speculation. Use it with caution N better after discussion with OP of that post.

Galaxy Note 7000 Home button Issue

hi everybody
I bought this phone and the home button not working
first i want somebody to tell if have a custom rom or is the original ICS (See attachment)
Second, how can i check the button, like before boot
victorlht88 said:
looks like its running on stock rom.
you can try flashing another rom via odin, i've faced the same issue before when i removed certain apks in custom roms before flashing.
else boot into recovery mode and see if your home button can function when you make the selections.

how can i boot on recovery?
the phone is not rooted
Stock Recovery !
The G-Note has a stock recovery function as well. Just turn off your phone and hold the volume-up + Home + Power to enter into recovery. if this is successful then your home button functionality is good.

if you talk about this (downloading mode) i can do it only with restart and volume down
with volume down, home button and power it's only power up my phone (normal function)
how can i root my phone if I'm not able to run in recovery mode?
only in download mode
is any tools like superoneclick for Samsung note?
thanks
nobody have a solution for this?

i didn't flash any but the item i bought it's second hand, in first post it's a picture with initial specs from phone. And the counter in download mode is around 16 and i only flashed 2 times
I'm back with my question:
it's any way to root my phone (with a custom rom already rooted) or anything else?
i can't restart my phone in recovery mode since y home button doesn't work
i want to root and after try to flash many rom's maybe it is not a hardware issue with home button
thanks

[Q] CM10 cm10-20120915-NIGHTLY-n7000 recovery problems (home button not working?!)

Hey Guys,
i was just trying out the new nightly and everything was working fine, till i wanted to install titanium backup through recovery...
I powered of my note which i have just flashed with cm10 (version in thread title) and then powered off.
Holding Volume-UP and Home Button and then Power. Getting into:
CWM based Recovery v6.0.1.3
Volume-Up and -Down, also back-touch key are working, but Home button does not... so i can't confirm any menu options.
Tried also only Volume-UP and Power but that's also not possible. I could only flash the older safe cm9 kernel with odin and there the home button works like expected. I hope anyone has any idea what i could do...
Or is it possible to flash the kernel from cm9 and work with cm10?
And could i go back to stock ics 4.0.3 without any problems?
Regards,
zentaury

You can't flash cm9 kernel on a cm10 rom.
For stock ics just download stock rom file and flash it via mobileodin or pcodin...

It totally depends on the kernel and the CWM version you are using ? Is it a Touch version ? Is Home key Supported ? In most of cases Power key works instead of Home key.

[Q] Can't boot or access CWM recovery

Hi
I just tried to flash v4.3b of the Hydracore Kernel from the v6 beta. It said it had installed successfully and I went to clear the cache but then my phone suddenly went off and now the phone won't boot. The Samsung Galaxy Note GT N7000 screen comes up but then nothing but the capacitive buttons illuminate when touched. I can't boot into CWM recovery (Power + Volume Down) nothing happens once the GTN7000 splash screen goes away. I can get the phone into the Samsung recovery and download mode
What can I do to get my phone working again?
what rom were u on?
Guessing you're on a cm based build?

you need to press power + home + vol UP for cwm

Thanks for that, didn't know about that combination. So used to rebooting into recovery while the phone is on.
B4you try take the battery out for 5min then do as he says. Bet you are on cm... though it is supposed to work . I've used it on dozens of roms ,no prob ,but wont touch cm. don't see the need for them anymore. Phones don't need stripped roms to go FAST anymore ...
I've had this. Like I say take batt out. Put in then hold vol up ,power ,home .when Samsung comes on you can let go ,or hold until cwm shows, it will. Hope you made a backup .when I flash a rom I flash v4at the same time ,no problems. Why use a beta and not the complete one ?

Hi,
Please double check if it is for ICS and for T (LT30P).
I have tried it with my T and ICS rom. It get into recovery very quickly and TWRP (I really prefer TWRP for its touch screen so we can avoid using hard buttons) do a back up smoothly. Then I start to notice problems. It seems to struggle to boot and when booted it show always maximum brightness and when turn off screen it is not fully off (just grey but not really off).
I think this is a very clever idea to merge both twrp and cwm. Just the kernel it self should be checked. And it would be good to make both versions for ICS and JB.
Thanks
Hello
This kernel is fot T or TX ?
Which version of stock kernel is based on ?
Will it work for 7.0.A.3.212??
