Anyone familiar with how to port roms.? I've been playing around with this and so far can't get anything going.. I followed a guide on youtube based of the Dr. Ketan rom using H-vitamin kernel... It mentioned it was for sprint and Verizon, but after app optimizing the phone just reboots.. Not complaing just trying my hand at rom porting...
what rom are you porting to n910v?

Forgive me for a stupid question but I'm VERY new to this:
Because Touchwiz is so awful, and the original galaxy tab is being denied ICS by Samsung, I've been thinking about using a custom rom.
There's already a nice looking ICS port coming along.
However, being VERY new to the galaxy tab - I bought this one used, as a pure wifi device, though it HAS a sim slot, I want to know -- how can I restore the original OS if I have problems with a custom firmware?
I noted Kies will refuse to deal with a samsung tablet if it's not an official rom... or am I mistaken?
I'm on a NTT Dococmo SC-01C (original Galaxy Tab) with official 2.3 docomo firmware. this was an upgrade from the preinstalled 2.2
Thank you SO much for help in advance.
You can flash stock firmware using either heimdall or Odin
So yes you can always go back.

Would you recommend the ICS Alpha 3, or is there a better Honeycomb rom? I can't be sure which is which because it seems like every distro has its OWN version number which doesn't match the android release number... sigh
I don't have personal experience with the hc port from but its being released as an release candidate which means that it should work pretty OK but there are probably still quite a few bugs to squash. The ics alpha 3 from is what I've been testing recently. It is NOT feature complete and those features that ARE there are extremely buggy if you are curious to know what isn't working I suggest exploring the ics from dev thread. Most of the working/broken info is in the first post. More detailed info can be found by paging through. Its nowhere near ready for prime time as an every day rom. I'm just testing it because I'm a bleading edge kind of guy and wanted to check out responsiveness and the slick new UI. I will be switching my from back to a gb room sharpish. Please note that i,m not giving the project a bad review, contrarily its showing amazing progress and I'm sure within a few months that there will be a release candidate of either fully working ics aosp or cyanogen mod 9 which is an ics project for the tab that many of the pics aosp project members are contributing to right now.
For a self described noob I would suggest looking for the most stable well tested and fastest rooms you can find. My best recommendations would be overcome kratos (the latest version for the Sgt) or cyanogen mod 7. Both of which are based on gingerbread and both of which have been tested for long periods of time with awesome user feedback and work great without the bloat of all the Samsung apps and such

Thanks so much. I will try it right away. I hope it is compatible with sc-01c.
Good Day XDA
Here is the thing. I am still new to rooting and flashing ROMs and so called kernels, If it would be so kind of you if i may ask the full step by step process in doing what you have just posted regarding installing ROM (paranoid android Version 0.2) provided with all the download links. I am really into using this ROM (PA) V.2.: cool: Its just I dont see any tutorials on the web for the step-by-step process to get my SGN GT-N7000 to run perfectly on the PA. By the way, im on stock samsung ROM and not yet rooted.
PS: This is goint to be my first time to work with rooting and flashing fernels and ROMs

You can follow the procedure suggested by the following website to root your phone:
http://rootgalaxynote.com/galaxy-note-root/how-to-root-galaxy-note-gt-n7000-method-2odinheimdall/
I suggest that you go slow one step at a time to be familiar with all the details before going to the next step.
Go read DrKetan's post in the Android Development thread about rooting your phone and such.
Hello.. I am just new here in xda.. I just bought my note 4 months ago and I think I am not maximing its potentials..My phone is already rooted.
I just want to ask your opinions on how can I make my phone cool/useful?
What rom are you on? Personally I believe the note should be more tablet like which is why I like cm based roms especially paranoid android 2.50. Gives you the option to have different display modes per app.
I also prefer a vanilla feel that helps with battery as all bloatware is removed.
This is impossible to advise really without knowing what you use the note for.

If u r rooted, you are already utilizing 50-60% of note's potentials

Flash 4.1.2 rom
You will feel like you have a note 2
Customising the Galaxy Note GT-N7000
It really depends what you mean by cool.........
Super fast - using kernels optimised for performance such as HydraCore
Bleeding edge Jelly Bean ROMs such as Paranoid Android
Rock solid TouchWiz ROMs such as Rocket ROM ICS and now JellyBean (based on recent leaked Samsung ROMs)
EyeCandy-tastic ROMs such as RocketMIUI
Pay attention to what these different ROMs don't do when you are considering which to flash and play with.
E.G. a lot of the stripped down ROMs and those based on CyanoGenMod don't have the Samsung productivity apps.
So if you love S-Memo, S-Note, S-Voice, look at the TouchWiz ROMs.
There are alternatives to all the Samsung productivity apps in the Google Play Store, if you find the ROM you want to stick with doesn't have them.
You are rooted, so you just need to get to grip with some of the basics of flashing ROMs..
Sujal has a great thread to take you through the whole process from out of the box to custom ROM and custom Kernel.
Chasmodo has a great thread which will help you understand what kernels are safe on the Note.
It is advisable to make a Nandroid backup of your current build through CWM before you start playing with different ROMs.
Then you can restore your working build through CWM if anything goes pear shaped.
The cool thing is that once you have got to grips with flashing and understand safe kernels, then you can flash as many different ROMs as you like until you find the one that suits you.
NOTE: Custom ROMs do not update OTA (Over The Air), through Kies or any other official update mechanism. You need to keep an eye on the thread for the custom ROM you are using and flash the updates from the thread.
Just in case you ever lose root (it does happen):
The best up to date guide for rooting is Dr. Ketan's Rooting Guide. (in my opinion)
Dr. Ketan really knows his stuff and will be happy to answer questions when he is around.
Phil3759 has another great rooting guide which may also help, and has potentially simpler methods for rooting.
You will need to pay attention to the N7000 specific elements of this thread to avoid any unintentional bricking.
I am about to acquire a droid 4
I'm looking for the most up to date rooting method and safe strap installation.. I am by no means a "noob" lol.. I've been reading up on this device and I am currently under the impression that the ICS utility tool is the best method.. My primary device is the nexus but this will b a nice alternative for when I need my battery last longer than 5 hours lol
Secondly ... What is everyone's consensus on the ROM stability.. I am looking for the ROM that can be used as a daily driver.. Would love to hear AOKP is in that boat!!
I believe I've gone through all the stickies so if I missed anything feel free to bring it to my attention!!
Lastly I've owned other moto devices where I would b able to flash the stock image via rsd. Curious if this exists on this device..
To anyone who wants to help me out with some answers I thank u in advance

Rooting/Flashing Stock: The easiest way to root your device is with the Droid 4 Utility ICS Only found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1779810. jsnweitzel did a bang up job making it simple to use. You can also use the utility to fastboot your phone back to stock.
Safestrap: The newest version of hashcode's safestrap can be found in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1688610. This will allow flashing to your stock partition as well as to multiple ROM slots.
ROMs: If you're looking for stability you're best bet is Eclipse ROM by myfishbear. It's ICS based but that is the reason it is pretty bug free. There are also various JB ROMS floating around that can be used as daily drivers depending on your appetite for bugs. CM10.1, KILLRom, and LiquidSmooth are all 4.2.1 based and all have the same bugs including blutooth not fully functional and the big one, incoming calls result in a black screen of death unless you have your ringtone set to silent. There are also an AOKP and CM10 builds based on 4.1.2. They still have the blutooth bug but incoming calls work fine. You can find threads for each of these ROMs in the Dev section except for KILLRom. I created a thread for that ROM in the General section.
Hope this helps!
Thanks for taking the time to answer it is much appreciates

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.

There is a relly good CM10 (JB) ROM I'm using: sapir-rom.blogspot.com It's nightly, but it works perfectly for me with very good performance.
