Since everything I need to know is scattered across various threads and there is no specific information regarding my question AFAIK so I decided to post a new thread. Forgive a newb for being worried.
I've decided to root my N1 and am running the EPF24B European build. I just had some questions and concerns:
1. What ROM do you think is best? I think the majority of people like Cyanogen.
2. If I root my phone now and flash on Cyanogen, when Cyanogen releases a Froyo ROM how will I update? Does that happen through a dedicated app? OTA?
3. How do I keep all my current programs and settings? I've heard of Nandroid but have no idea what it does. I presume it has something to do with the NAND memory?
4. btw how stable is a rooted phone?
5. I've seen a number of guides here, but don't know whether or not they are the latest versions. Can anyone point me to a proper guide? Or are they all the same?
Thanks if anyone can answer this.

you might get flamed for this or get this thread closed but i will try to help u.
1)while cyanogen is the best rom in my opinion, froyo is the ****. no matter what. and when cyanogen finally puts his touches on it, it will be even better.
3)no you cant keep them. u would have to be ROOTED first and then you can use titanium backup to make a backup or all your settings and freeze apps. til then, nope u have to completely wipe and start over again. i know when i switch from rom to rom, google automatically downloads the apps that i have had installed before i switch roms if that helps you any.
4)rooted phones are VERY stable and even faster than stock. more memory, runs smoother. the only one that might not run as smooth is the Desire Rom because of sense ui but i love sense ui and have it on my G1 but yes rooted phones are stable.
5)i have followed the instructions of this guide that was for macs tho. u have to be a bit specific if your on mac or pc
I'm using a PC.
And thanks for your input.
btw you didn't answer question 2. If I update to CM now, will I be able to update OTA when a Froyo version comes out?

If you are running stock ICS(which I'm sure you are) you should assume that you are affected by the bug.
Refrain from doing factory reset using the STOCK/CWM recovery as this will trigger the bug even on STOCK recovery. If you have CWM do not do a NANDROID RESTORE.
If you are rooted i suggest flashing a safe custom kernel, a good one that I can
recommend for solid battery life and balanced performance is Speedmod k3-3 just look for it on the development section.
If you don't like custom kernels and prefer stock just do not do the ones I've mentioned above. If you really need to do a factory reset do it on Gingerbread.
Regarding the battery life, there are many factors to consider. First thing that you need to check if your phone is going into deep sleep. Download cpuspy on play store and report back here so we can help you.
HOLY CRAPPPPPP
Well i have already done the FACTORY RESET 2 times but now its working fine so far
So what should i do now?????????????????????????
Also i would like to know if i can switch back to gingerbread os using Skies software?????????????????
You cant use Kies but Id recommend using ODIN because its faster and safer.
Check out dr.ketans guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424997, the man is a genius.
His English isnt great, but essentially
Download ODIN
Download whichever stock rom you want (GB)
Set phone to download mode
Connect to Odin
and flash.
His instructions are a lot more detailed (maybe to much so). But if you do this, the dangerous kernel will be gone and youll be safe.
I know where you are coming from being fairly new to the android scene. Have been in it now for about six months and i would consider myself fairly literate. From what you were saying you updated your phone to the official ics version for your phone. Well... The first thing you need to do my friend is read, read, and read some more. Alot of what i know and have learned has been from researching these forums and the web. Rootgalaxynote.com is pretty good for noobs as it usually has videos showing you how to do things step by step but you should also read some of the faq's about rooting and flashing on this site. If i were in your shoes the first thing that i would do would be the following;
1.) root the device using Dr. Keetans method on this site. If you havent done this it wouuld be a good place to egt started. His method will not trigger your phones counter.
2.) I would revert the phone back to its earlier version which would be gingerbread. You can do this by looking in the stock gingerbread roms section under android development on this site. Our fellow senior members have made it fairly easy to find and after reading you should have a pretty good idea of what to do.
3.) Install a kernel that is safe for ics roms such as franco kernel or abyssnote kernel. This should be fairly easy for you to do just make sure you do tue steps exactly as they describe or else you will mess the phone up.
4.) After that you can pick out a custom ics rom which if you are looking for optimal battery consumption this would be the best way to go about it as official ics rom consumes a substantial amount more battery than the sleak, lean more refined custom roms out there. Just be carefull what you choose as some are full of bugs and features not working.
The main thing here is to cover alot of ground and do your homework. Research is key and you always want to stick with sites like xda and a few others. Xda may not be the most user friendly site out there but it contains a wealth of information and iw where the best of the best come together. Hope this helps my friend.

If you can still run it fine, then you're good. But from now on refrain from doing things on the recovery until you're on a safe kernel. Some users reported that they were able to do a factory reset to the nth time before encountering the brick. Meaning you can factory reset 999 times and get away with it and on the 1000th time, brick ur device seriously god knows when it will happen.
Just stay away from CWM or Stock recovery for now if you don't know what you're doing just to be safe.
P.S. ICS is nothing to be scared of if you know what you're doing. Do a little research about the hardbrick bug good place
to start reading about it is this POST
Well i completely agree with you mate and i need to do a lot of homework before i make any change.However since i am very new to the terminology used in ANDROID so would like to ask you if there is any website which can explain me a lil bit about these terminologies so that i know what everbody is talking about or is it that i should simply go through the forums and then join all the bits and pieces to get an idea about the terms used.
Also i would like to ask you that "ODIN" is it like another software which is used to flash the FIRMWARE

hmm. website... ? well you can start on this website http://developer.android.com/about/index.html and don't forget our ever loved website.. (XDA-DEV)...
Just by snooping, hanging around, munch and digest all you can and soon you'll be able to pick some neat tricks in learning android terminologies in no time at all.
ODIN (PC /Mobile) is a very neat indispensable tool for custom room makers and flashers... With this tool you can always at your disposal.. whilst jump from one custom rom to another, which ever your choice or liking. Changing ROMS is akin to Flashing.. so if you flash a ROM, you are changing your current ROM to whatever ROM you would like to have it installed on your phone.
Every custom ROM has its highlights and lowlights... pick what suits you best and your good to go after. Flashing ROMs with Gingerbread support (if your still in stock GB), assures you no brick at all... Now on the other hand, if your already in ICS(Stock) and would like to flash custom roms with iCS support.. then I do warn you to be wary of it. A lot of people have fallen and have been bitten by the hardbrick bug... Just always be extra careful in doing it.
Cheers bud!
First of all i really thank everyone for their help considering that i am a noob when it comes to android
2ndly i am alos getting an impression that Gingerbread is a better bet as of now till there is a permanent fix for the Bug and secondly i am getting an impression that GB was much better when it comes to the battery backup
Correct me if i am wrong
Alos a clarification
Stock rom means the firmware from SAMSUNG?Am i correct?
Custom rom means that it has been tweaked to avoid any known issues?Am i correct?
Also if i change from custom to stock riom does that hamper the warrenty or not?

Yes! Flash it back to Stock Rom and unroot it. You should be good to go.
You should not worry too much about the bricking bug. If you stay on stock rom and your phone gets bricked you are covered by the warranty. It is not your fault that the phone has that problem.
I also recommend that you ask some friend that has experience to help if you want to flash/root/install custom rom, given that you have little experience with android.
i have just checked in and found this link "Root Your Phone"
This means he is going back to a particular version
Right?

Dilpreet,
U remind me of myself 2 years back when I was equally inquisitive, enthusiastic but lacking knowledge...
First of all... There is no problem whatsoever if you remain on stock(yes u r right official) Samsung ics provided you don't do factory reset ahead.
2. U need to familiarize yourself with android terminology such as rooting, flashing custom (yes again u r right tweaked) roms, recovery mode, download mode, full wipe, Odin, directly/not directly root able roms etc etc... I am not trying to psyche you out but just giving a word of caution. Unless you know all of these terminologies well (you will get lot of reading on xda on each of this) , PLEASE DO NOT ATTEMPT ANYTHING. By anything I mean even reverting to GB. U must have updated from GB to iCS OTA (over the air) that is on device itself but this rversal won't be easy unless u fully know what u r doing... so first familiarize urself and then get into it.
3. As regards battery life on stock ics , you can use app named juice defender (available on play store) it has lot of options for battery saving. Besides check if GPS and wifi options are not switched on when not in use... some apps are battery hoggers. Check battery usage under settings ---- battery to see how its doing.
4. There are few safe ics kernels available like what has been told u before by some people in this thread... I would strongly suggest Cm9 or any cm9 based rom like asylum (btw Cm stands for cyanogenmod ) which are smooth and safe & yes extremely battery efficient too.
5. Lastly, I will pm you one apk file which will help you know whether your phone has a brick bug or not... do uninstall that application after you check it. For installing any external app (apk file) you need to go in settings ---- security --- and tick unknown sources
PS: Do click Thanks if I have been of any help mate
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda app-developers app
Nopes... rooting is gaining administrator rights over your phone. In simple terms , being able to access system folder on your phone... Beware, rooting voids warranty.. Please refer Dr. ketan's guide on rooting note on other thread... That's best

Thanks for the info mate
And i have already checked the article which helps you to check if your handset is affected or not and what i could understand was that we just have to install the application and then run the application and will generate a result
But what after that?
I mean how ill i come to know which files to look for which will tell us if its affected or not
I am not aware as to which all files to look for
Please help me
It will throw up the result after checking.. u need not look for anything... it will tell u if ur phone is prone to brick bug.. check it urself. Have sent u the apk file already through pm (personal message).
This will just tell you if you are really prone to this bug, nothing beyond that. If you are then you have three options:
1. Stick to stock ics rom but don't do full wipe again
2. Revert to stock GB through Odin
3. Switch to safe ics kernel (and enjoy lovely ics experience without boring Samsung touchwiz)
For the last you will have to root your phone for remaining, rooting not required.
PS: Please press Thanks button if I have helped you anyway

Lol...I know just how you feel, searching for answers!
I will have a Note 4 in a few days.
I'm thinking about getting an AppRadio, and in order to use ARUnchained or the like on it, it looks like I might need to have SELinux be off or set to permissive, or something of that nature.
I know it's possible to do this with various kernels on the development forum, but I'm wondering what the easiest way to do this is, if I want it to be stock or as close to stock as is possible, just with permissive SELinux.
I've tried to figure this out on my own, but the closest I can find is flashing a kernel with a whole lot of other modifications, which I don't necessarily want to do at first. Anyone know of any other way, or of a kernel where there are not so many modifications?
Thanks for any help!

You can usually find a stock kernel with selinux set to permissive....i don't have it or link to it, check in Jovy's thread in development he usually posts one.

While the device is still on 4.4.4 you can use SELinuxMod Changer from the play store. It may not work once we upgrade to 5.01 though

Mods or apps that make changes to system settings/files always require root. Try for instance custom launchers to add some features if you don`t want to root.

There are no other mod packs that I am aware of, though there is always Xposed, but it is in Alpha stage so if you're not a confident modder, probably stay away.
Why not use a custom ROM though?

Stock is better and more stable. Custom roms are fine, but a hassle to install and the easiest way to end up with a bricked phone. I have installed a custom ROM before, stock is a better experience.
Sorry, before I answer, my question was to find out your reasons and see if there was anything I could help you overcome. My intention is to help set your mind at ease, but given the reasons you've given, I apologise in advance of my answers seem like I'm just being a git.

I think that would be a sweeping generalisation and mostly the opposite of my experience. There is a nack to choosing roms though.

a hassle how? Download rom and gapps to sdcard, flash via recovery, wipe data, restore user apps. Don't forget you can't get OTA updates with root, mod packs and custom recovery so that's even more of a hassle imho.

I think that is another sweeping generalisation. I haven't ever seen anyone brick their phone with a custom rom.. Assuming you're using the correct definition whereby phone must be sent to the manufacturer for repair... The most I've seen is someone flashing a kernel or bootloader from the wrong device, or disconnecting mid-flash which can all be fine as stock too.. Though there was that time when cyanogen tried to downgrade the bootloader, though we tend to stay away from them anyway.
Maybe your reasons are born of a lack of confidence and that's understandable. The reasons you have however aren't really reasons though.
I would agree that it's mostly lack of confidence. I mean who would be confident in installing a custom ROM when there's always that warning about bricking and damaging the device. Why risk it? In my experience, it's not installing the ROM that's a hassle, but switching roms or returning to stock. And also having to factory reset the device constantly is very tedious.

The warnings are a general disclaimer so there is no come back on the dev. Ever wonder why some packs of nuts say "may contain nuts"? Its the same sort of thing.
There's no more risk flashing custom roms than flashing stock roms or OTA updates. In fact I think there is less risk. And by flashing mod packs, you're already taking the exact same risk as flashing a custom ROM, so I don't understand the logic.

Mostly people with none or very low understanding of rooting, flashing, adb and such are a high risk for bricking their phone.
The big picture is:
- make sure the fastboot drivers are installed correctly
- Enable adb debugging and enable oem unlock, both in developer options
- Unlock the bootloader in fastboot
- Flash TWRP recovery and make a nandroid backup
- Flash a custom rom and Google apps
- Optional flash a custom kernel
- Flash superSU.zip
- Reboot and thats it

Best way to find out? Try it for yourself. Also, returning to stock on a Nexus is the easiest thing, just a basic understanding of fastboot. There's a guide for that, in the general forum. Look in the sticky roll up thread.
That's the beauty of a Nexus, the simplicity of modification. The amount of development.

I cant comment on that because I haven't tried it or seen it recommended anywhere. That's not to say it's not good, I'm sure it is.
Best way to find a ROM in my opinion, look at the feature set and find one you like, then read a bit of the early pages of a thread them a few at the end to get a feel about what the users think.
Hopefully soon, Xposed will become stable and a whole world will open up to 5.1 users.
What's up everybody?
I think I need some help.
I'm running a custom rom, apparently without any setting around the possibility to switch off or dim the hardware buttons backlight.
I'm wondering if it was possible to use a third party app, if it exists, or to modify any build.prop line or some more stuff like that, waiting for my rom developers to add this feature.
Please don't talk to me about xposed modules, I don't want to install xposed.
What custom rom are you using? Cause I'm using RR and I have this option right in the configurations part of settings.

I know. I'm running Reaper OS (what was Broken OS up to few weeks ago). You can't find anything on XDA about it, that community doesn't want their rom to be discussed here.
I already asked in their community what was to be asked.
What I'm asking here, is a workaround on any android 7.1.1 custom rom. It can also help few other people with the same problem and not necessarily the same rom.

well if that's a feature you want I would say you should switch ROMs. I don't know of any workaround for this. Or you might try requesting it to be added in by the Dev.
@se7ensde I thank you very much for your time and efforts, but you are telling me obvious things.
This rom simply rocks on this device and, as I said, I'm already asked this feature on the right channels.
I'm asking a workaround, not another rom, I tried all of them already.
