Hi guys restored my phone and realized that themes are rom specific. Soooo i know i dont have any custom rom on my phone, but i know i backup and am running my stock rom that came with the fascinate (im guessing touchwiz). My question is are there any themes that work on this rom,so i dont end up installing a custom rom for it. Also can you please link a guide to install custom rom with CWM for this phone? Thanks
i noticed there are no stock or lite roms available for note which are flashable by cwm, it would be great if a dev cooks one up. There are similar roms available they are only flashable by odin. I find ".zip" roms more flexible for every user, because it is easy to modify before flashing (i.e. deleting bloatwares or unused apps or modifying build.prop).
i didn't find any information about this, and post my question in this section. please, give me an answer.. may I install a custom rom on stock slot? SS 3.11 allow me to install a zips on stock..
accelerometer on my Xperia arc s doesn't work on any ( stock / cooked) ROMS but it's working on stock / Cooked GB ROMS. I have tried changing default kernel with lupus, doomed and cm10 as well but it didn't work. please guide me how to resolve this problem.
For all your help and questions, post in Q&A. No questions or help requests are allowed in this section.
Hi guys, I am new to this Forum.. I wanted to root my GT-N7000. So i searched the forums and i followed the guide of Dr.ketan and used the recommended method ( 1A - Flashing safe kernal with CWM recovery with touch 5 ). Had a bootloop on second restart, ( did reset and rooted the phone using the 1B method flashing SuperSU and Busybox ) Nevertheless successfully rooted my phone.
Now i wanna try Custom ROMs..Is there any precautions to be considered other than Nandroid backup?.. Also i have only a 2GB memory card.. Would it be enough to make Nandroid Backup?..
I also read by Installing Custom ROMs, we will lose Stock apps ( Since apps like S Note need some TW kernal ).. Is there anyway to Port or install or Mod available to install stock apps like SNote and Splanner in Custom ROMs?..
Finally, will the SPen work with Custom ROMs??.. I mean will the Custom ROMs for Note will have the Kernals Inbuilt for SPen or we have to install the Kernals required?..
Thanks a lot for viewing this thread and Thanks in Advance for your replies
PS:- Please excuse me, if the above questions have been asked before, cuz i searched for it and couldn't find it or they were complicated for a noob like me!
For flashing custom roms you will first need a custom kernel with cwm and safe to flash from.
It depends on the ROM you want to flash.
Don't worry about the sd card size, you can make backups to internal sd also.
Custom rom based on touchwiz do come with the apps you mentioned. But if you are going to try AOSP&CM roms them they won't work as they need tw framework.
Kernels not required for spen. Framework. Roms based on Samsung firmware support spen but AOSP&CM roms will not. As a stylus it does work though. Not like popus you get on Samsung roms.

I had already flashed Philz safe kernal with CWM.. So I dont need to flash kernals if the Custom ROMs are based on CWM right?.. and for the Spen to work, i just have to find Custom ROMs based on samsung firmware support? or Custom ROMs based on TW?..
Thanks for your help
If you have flashed philz kernel then you should be good to flash most of the roms except 4.4 as they need newer version of cwm. Eg raw kernel.

Thanks a lot.. I have one more question ( pls bare with me )..
If for eg.. i wanna download this SuperBean v1.5 XXLT6.. The last 5 letters, what exactly are they?.. My mobile Build No ends with:- DDLSC and my Baseband version ends with :- DDLS6...
Does this last 5 letters of Superbean ( XXLT6 ) have anything to do with my Build No or Baseband version?.. When i downloaded the Philz touch 5 CMW recovery with safe kernels i Noticed, he had seperate files for seperate Build Nos..
So do i have to check the Custom ROMs for my Build Nos or is it only for kernels and CMW?..
Thanks for your help
Those are roms build for different regions. You can flash any build number. It's up to the developers on which rom version is his ROM based upon.

Thanks a lot man
One more thing to do before installing a custom rom is to BACKUP YOUR EFS FOLDER.
Or do not do it and your phone could end as a small tablet/big mp3 player.
Unlikely, but i bought one with damaged EFS folder last week to replace my screen. It does happen.
