7.1 is buggy for some devices? In my experience, its kind of buggy for the Fascinate.

yeah. they released a flow chart with percentages a week ago. if i find ill link. but based on the flow chart we have ~66% chance of official cm9 (do we really need it though?) we already have a AOKP, Gummy, MIUI v4, nightly kangs, THS and Codename (most of these roms from Stephen.k.spear thanks btw) so in all reality, would the world end with out offic cm9?

not really, cm9 is not everyones style. i personally dont really enjoy ICS. what i mean is its not all its cracked up to be. Google hypes the **** out of their software and i dont blame them but i think they did it right with gb and ill probably be running this or the skang nightlies until i upgrade in may

Not if I have anything to say about it. We'll get added at some point. Enjoy my kangs until then.
Considering sbrissen just added the files needed to builds from CM9 directly I'm guessing he's planing on a merge....

"cwm 2.5.x all" is only recovery that backs up stock rom to my knowledge. You will need to flash it to make your backup then flash "cwm fixed for cm7" to proceed with cyanogenmod.

i downloaded the cwm 3.0.0.8 zip file and acording a video on youtube all i have to do is to use the root explorer, rename the recovery from the bin folder and copy there the one i downloaded... so far so good but when i go onto the recovery mode y select the backup/restore option it shows me a buch of errors "E: cant mount cache/partition" and cant open the same path... the thing is that the .zip i downloaded with the recovery has like 4 folders "META-inf" "sbin" "res" "etc"... im new in this whole thing :S please be patient with me...

Neither... unless you want to end up with a bricked phone, STAY AWAY from all ICS ROMs that are based on leaked kernel.

That is to say, either wait or go for the CM9 that xplodwild posted.

CM9 to be at the.save side
or if you insiste on the repacked roms I.prefer the midteam rom
all samsung applications working with the midteam rom (smemo - snote ...)

Midteam 1.3 is now using the official ICS release. I assume that will fix the brick concerns?

Anyone tried KingDroid ICS 1.6 ROM?

Hi Guys,
Did anyone tried KingDroid ICS 1.6 ROM....any review or suggestion?...presently i am on CM9...is it worth flashing to it?

Dear abheshekk,
I am on v1.6 now and it is very smooth&stable... Cm9 is still in its early beta stage and may have much more bugs than tw based kingdroid v1.6... It is worth to flash according to me... V1.6 contains latest ported apps from sgs3 ics rom including toucwiz ux... Call rec is enabled and all spen stuff is working... I am very satisfied with v1.6...
Kind regards.

I'm on LPF + bootloader flashed using Dr.Ketan instructions. Does anyone moved from this LPF to KDv1.6?
how do you do it? no matter if it does wipe.

It's fine, but I like Rocket Rom more. I don't know why, but I guess it's because I ran with eybee's old ICS leak which was awesome.
Rocket Rom v2 + my SGS3 theme = smooth as hell.

Alternatively the OP could have read the KingDroid thread and make his own decision based on what people report in that thread instead of making a new one that clutters up the forum.

Try it. Rom, is very stable, new touchwiz is amazing and s voice works better than just installing the app on other ROM.

Yeah I'm getting that issue too! But otherwise it's a stable rom though it doesn't really work to well if your planning on using I like better but I have a feeling that Rocket Rom is going to be my choice just because I loved the GB equivalent.

Fool proof instruction from LPF (Ketan)
First get these to files on SD(cant post links, google pls):
CF-Root-SGN_ZS_OZS_LPF-v5.3 (get the .tar since Mobile Odin can not flash .zip)
AbyssNote kernel 4.2 Final RedPill Touch Original Logo (.zip vers.)
and the Kingdroid Rom
Download Mobile Odin(pro) and flash CF-Root-SGN_ZS_OZS_LPF-v5.3
Now Boot into recovery and flash AbyssNote kernel, still in CF-Root go to advance and reboot recovery (so now you are in abyss recovery)
In Abyss first Wipe Data/Factory after that wipe Cache and then wipe Dalvik
Now install from SD and chose Flash Kingdroid rom
Reboot and enjoy GNote

What's the most vanilla ICS rom for Note?

Hello,
How are you?
I am a bit tired of Touchwiz and some lag on the phone, so I would like to switch ROMS.
So, I was wondering what is the most pure vanilla ICS 4.0.4 ROM for the Note, wich is stable and has the fewest know issues?
I am sorry for this thread, but there are so many roms developed that it is really hard to choose.
CHeers and thanks!

For an ICS ROM you need to use an ICS kernel. But Paranoid comes packaged with the kernel. By the sound of it you are on GB at the moment. If it's already rooted, do a full wipe then flash Paranoid and the GApps package from the same thread.
If you are already on ICS, do not do full wipe until you have read up on how to do it.

Any downsides to this ROM?
I am currently on stock Note, with ICS 4.0.3 and stock kernel. Not rooted.
Would a kernel like Speedmod work better with the nightly rom? Or is a stock GB kernel better?
Whichever rom I choose, I need to use PC Odin to revert to GB before flashing anything, right?
Cheers and thanks!

Why would anyone use cm9 If Paranoid Android is the same with much more features..
You cant use any tw kernels like speedmod. Cm9 need cm9 kernels

can i install Paranoid Android from ICS through Abyss 4.2 kernel ?

You can use modded kernels with PA, but only cm based ones like AniDroid/bbq etc.. and not the touchwiz ones like speedmod/franco.
To install, follow what the post above says, or as you mentioned use Odin to go back to gb, root/install cwm, full wipe then install Paranoid Android.

As stated above cm9 only uses cm9 based kernel, you don't have to worry about that, it will install itself when you flash the ROM.

Because not everyone like tablet mod, I've tried PA but returned to cm9 because the phone UI is more suitable for the note .
And then there is the faster update cycle of cm9.

Just my two cents: I found PA to be super buggy in comparison to CM9, the boot splash didn't fit the screen and the UI lagged a lot more, some of the apps were great in tablet mode, but CM9 feels overall far more suited to the Note.

If you want a true Vanilla experience install the 4.04 Stock Rom, you will find the there are now a lot of people using it, it is stable, fast and the battery life has improved. There is a large difference between 4.03 and 4.04 official ROMS.
I have been using it since it came out and I find that it beats everything else I have tried. On the down side the 4.04 kernel still contains the EMMC Bug so I cannot do a full wipe without reverting back to GB.

no need to wipe anything when flashing kernels. wiping dalvik before flashing kernels is the same as washing your feet before flashing a kernel, one has nothing to do with the other.
