FAQ'S
Q.Can I use this rom on tmo/Canadian variants?
A.This rom is made for the N9005, @fahadali2315 doesn't support other variants, He ONLY supports the N9005. However a user made a fix to get the things that work by default to work on tmo/Canadian variants. Read the "How to get N9005 roms to work on N900T(Tmo) & N900W8(Canadian) Variants" guide for step by step instructions BUT use the fix that i am linking below.

Hey guys, I made a zip to fix Wifi, NFC, & BT for N900t and possibly other variants (untested).
You can find it here.
Maybe add to OP so we can remove N9005 Only

Q.Why does the installation fail when I try flashing this rom?
A2.Use latest philz recovery (recommended at ROM thread OP), other recoveries might not be able to flash this rom.
A2. v2.5 comes with Aroma Installer, I personally choose Chenglu CWM as it will handle Aroma better.
Q.Why is deep sleep not working?
A1. Deep sleep only works with the 2 NE6 kernels, 1 that comes with the rom and other that @fahadali2315 posted.
A2. Latest updated / tested : Aurora kernel is a good match to this X-Note S5 Ported ROM. Thanks @MojoManagement for the good kernel
Q.Can I use s5 kernels?
A.You can but they break the camera. So better to use n9005/n900t kernels instead.
Q.Why is sview not working?
A1.

A2. If A1 can't fix your device, try to go the APN, change the bearer to LTE, and then Save. Your mobile data should be working.
A3. If A1 & A2 still can't fix your device mobile data, your last resort is to flash FIX for National Roaming. Thanks to @Mroczny3 for the fix.

Hows the Battery Performance on this ROM? been using XNote for a month and it's an amazing rom. I wonder if this could replace XNote Note 3 being my daily rom thank you so much Fahadali

Can you pls check the contact setting FC? S view cover not working. Dialer full screen caller picture half shown on screen. Contact list is misaligned. Call from contact list shown in wrong position. I am using 289 dpi. Pls check.

Battery life is too weak may be due to deep sleep not functional. Tried some deep sleep software seems working.

Hardly the battery life is 5 to 6 hours. But the look and interface is awesome.
Thanks to all for making such ROM a reality.

Those are known bugs and since this is a port it's bound to have bugs. With time hopefully these bugs will be fixed and this rom will become even better..

New MIUI music player:
Changelog:
v2.3 - 2/16/2011
If you just installed 2.1, let it boot once (initial boot) and then reboot in recovery and install the update, or your phone will end up in a vibration loop
This can be installed over 2.2.
Kernel Speedmod K13B
Dialer now has message button instead of voice mail (more useful)
Moded MMS apk included. Supports picture sending with res up to 1280x800, MMS size max 600KB and SMS to MMS conversion is done at 5 SMSs (default value is 4)
Updated system apps; Updated /data apps
Changed Browser icon - hope you like Chrome
Reverted gps drivers to JPY - please report on performance.
Changed AOSP lockscreen font to Sans (check pictures)
Added latest version of MIUI player
Updated the Continuum_content folder
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif] stock_look_Continuum_5locks_circlebat.zip - removes visual and several sound customizations but it preserves the circle battery and the 5 lockscreens mod [/FONT]
Click here for the full change log and feature list
Few important notes:
For update packs from older versions, check the second post
MODEM RECOMMENDATION: Please flash JPY modem, enable WCDMA 850 (by typing *#2263# - COMBI BANDS - WCDMA 850 (FDD V)
[*]. If the star is not there, tap on that line)and see how is battery life. For me is great. If you have battery drain, you might want to do this. If your connection drops, go to settings - wifi settings - mobile networks and set the type of network to the one has most coverage on your area, GSM or WCDMA
You will have in Continuum_content folder, on your sdcard, [FONT=Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif]the following patches:[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif] i897_prop.zip - this will change your phone's name from GT-i9000 to i897. However you will lose access to Samsung Apps. The patch deletes the apk from the system as well and it installs a working version of Swype + QuickOffice (as ThinkOffice will not work anymore with the i897 build.prop) [/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif] TwLauncher4iconsDock.zip - well, no explanation needed for this[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif] stock_look_Continuum_4locks_circlebat.zip - removes visual and several sound customizations but it preserves the circle battery and the 4 lockscreens mod [/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif]stock_look_Continuum.zip - this will revert your phone's look to Samsung default framework (no extended power menu, no lockscreens chooser)[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif] delete_bloat.zip - this will delete applications considered as "bloat". Below is the update-script content; you can see which apps are being removed:[/FONT]

Installation instructions
Disclaimer: If this shall brick your device, make you break up with your girlfriend, make the cat fly, the TV explode and wipe the mankind from the surface of the Earth, I am not responsible!
The ROM was tested on my Captivate. I installed several times to make sure it behaves.
To exclude one cause of battery drain issues always flash this ROM with FULL BATTERY!
This will wipe your /system, /data, /dbdata, /cache.
Internal/External SDcard will remain untouched.
STEP 0: BACKUP! BACKUP! BACKUP! Use nandroid and Titanium Backup
As well please create a backup of your /efs partition as described here
1. Pull out your SIM and external sdcard!
2. Return to stock (those without 3 button combo, use this) <- If you are coming from another i9000 ROM and if you dont have lagfix enabled, this step is not required.
3. Download the ROM
4. Flash from CWM Recovery.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Old ROM links:
Basic ROM comes with K12H speedmod kernel and I9000UGJL2 modem.
This is JPY deodexed and rooted. Nothing else.
Basic ROM wipe
Basic ROM non wipe
Other old downloads
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Issue list, fixes and tips:
This section is continuously updated
First, if you install a different kernel, don't blame the ROM if you have issues.
If you changed system apps (apks) or framework other than what is posted in this thread, don't blame the ROM or the addon pack for making your phone an useless piece of plastic.
If you changed system binaries (drivers, applications -non apks-), again, don't blame the ROM for temporary killing your device.
You may put up a post with your problem and with the changes you made to the OS by yourself. I will do my best to get you out of the situation but don't first rate the ROM as worse and then leave. Everything can be fixed so give me a chance!
Thanks a lot for understanding.
I cannot uninstall system apps with TitaniumBackup. Why? Because TiBu does not mount the /system as RW. Will discuss this with Joel. Workaround: go to SGS Toolbox and tap on mount /system as rw (read/write) then uninstall the applications you want from TiBu. Restart the phone and you're done.
I cannot take MMS video and send MMS with video attached bigger than 300KB what can I do? Take a look here
Mobile data sometimes not working. Fix: make sure you have an APN for your network by going to Settings - Wireless and network - Mobile networks - Access Point Names
My bluetooth doesn't work: Yes it does!
I'm using it myself.
OMG, there are no animations!!! Yes there are! you have to activate them in Settings - Display – Animations
I have high battery drain on this thing. Take a look here
I would like to try new modems and if possible know some stuff about them. Take a look here
I cannot send MMS. Make sure you have your phone configured with the correct Access Point Name and the correct outgoing server number.
Stock email doesn't work/doesn't support exchange. There are several reports that the email app works fine and this ROM was the only one they could run Exchange on so make sure your provider doesn't play with the towers configuration.
The phone is telling me that I was 50% of the time without signal. Why? This could be related to the modem. I am now testing JK4. If you have this bug download and flash UGJK4 modem . As well, make sure that you have WCDMA 850MHz selected by typing *#2263# - COMBI BANDS - WCDMA 850 (FDD V) [*]. If the star is not there, tap on that line and that should be all.
Alternative: There were reports that with JPY modem, this bug disappeared after enabling 850 band and there were no reception problems plus greatly improved battery life
I dont seem to be able to get a GPS lock on this ROM. What can I do? Check this post
What is Control Plane?? Take a look here
How to:

Calibrate battery: (thanks to TechnicR)
Turn phone off and charge till full
Start recovery and wipe battery stats
Reboot and start the phone
Use it heavily until it turns of by itself
Connect charger and turn on the phone and wait until fully charged
GPS: Here is a my tracks recording. Is short but it shows that the GPS works almost without a fault
Feel:
The ROM feels really smooth on RFS, I am surprised how much improvement Samsung made with their file system in 2.2.1.
Thanks and donations go to R64, ericshieh, bedwa, DocRambone, Fr44g0r, creator2456, s0niqu3, Fabolous, camalot, khiyatesh, glitterballs, neldar, Guardian_Bob, MikeyMike01, designgears and others. If you notice someone not mentioned, dont hesitate to let me know.

-xcaliburinhand's 2.2.2

This looks awesome. DLing now will post back with findings.

Just so ya know home button haptic feedback is not kernel related its fixed in android.policy.jar. I had it fixed with jpo but haven't gotten it fixed yet for jpu as it seems to be a little different. But if you put in an android.policy.jar from a captivate firmware, you will have haptic on the home button but a bunch of text string errors.
Just letting more people know since I don't have as much time to mess around and fix as I used to. The more people looking at it, the quicker this issue will be fixed for good.

Galaxy S Faq - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=12077191&postcount=4
[F.A.Q.
Please read before posting any questions!
The latinime and gallery3dold apk's are attached at the bottom of this post
Q: I can't can't make phone calls and/or send messages?
A: Make sure your IMEI is correct. To check your IMEI, go into your dialer and type in *#06#. If it's not correct, go back to stock, flash RC2, and then flash the latest version.
Q: How to flash a newer version of MIUI over an old one
A: Format system, data and cache and install the newer zip. If you do not want to lose data then do not format "data", but if the rom is buggy then do a factory reset and reboot.
Q: How do I install this if I'm coming from CM7?
A: Format data, system, and cache. Flash the MIUI.zip and then do a wipe data/factory reset. Reboot. If you are not flashing Segnaro's package, you will need to flash a CM7 kernel and modem.
Q: I applied a theme, but it didn't change everything?
A: The MIUI Dev's have been changing the theme system recently so themes that have not been updated will not work or will not theme everything. Once the beta gets close to being finished, more themes will created and updated.
Q: Why is the auto-rotation reversed?
A: *If you don't know know how to do most of these things, you should not do it, or ask for more help other wise you might send your phone into a bootloop.
If you download the i9000 package instead of a captivate package, the auto-rotation will be incorrect. To fix this, you need to grab these files from the CM7 rom:
lib/libsensorservice.so
lib/hw/sensors.aries.so
lib/hw/sensors.goldfish.so
After you copy those files to your sd card, download Root Explorer or another file managing app. Go to where those files are located on your sd card, and copy each one-by-one and paste them in the correct spot. You will need to be in R/W mode for this to work. After you paste it and overwrite the previous one, you need to change the permissions for each one to this:
User: X-X-0
Group: X-0-0
Others: X-0-0
X = checkmarks 0 = unchecked
Reboot the phone and auto-rotion should now be correct.
Q: The battery doesn't fully charge?
A: This is a Samsung feature to keep the battery healthy. Once it reaches around 96%, it's charged and you can uplug your phone.
Q: My wifi doesn't work?
A: Reflash the kernel. If that doesn't work, you may need to reflash the rom.
Q: My statusbar icons turn either gray and green?
A: This is a feature of Android 2.3. Gray means you have a signal/data and green means you have a signal/data and are connected to the google servers.
Q: The notification menu is in Chinese!
A: A simple reboot should resolve the issue.
Q. Why can't this be flashed with one CMW zip?
A. This rom is a port from the nexus s version. It is built on CM7 in order to correctly partition the device. The initial kernel flash via Odin can not be replicated via clockwork.
Q: When I get a call or call someone, my screen turns black!
A: Hit the power button a couple of times until the screen turns back on. If that does not work or it keeps happening, go to Settings, Call Settings, turn off proximity sensor and when holding phone up to face make sure you turn screen off using power.
Q. I have no data what should I do?
A. Toggle screen off and on a couple times.
Q: I can't download anything from the browser/market/etc.?
A: Try these options in order:
- Go into the 'Downloads' app on your phone, hit the menu button, and select, "Download using Mobile network." Reboot.
- Go into Recovery, wipe data/factory reset.
Q. I am using a kernel that allows for under volting, but I can't get the sliders to move in voltage app.
A. Known issue, with persistence they will move.
Q. How can I go back to 2.2 Roms?
A. Odin flash stock with repartition. One click will do, provided you can use it on your device.
Q. Can I use the camera from my favorite 2.2 rom?
A. No, there is no twframework because this is not a Samsung rom. Nothing Samsung will work.
Q. Can I use a Samsung App from my favorite 2.2 rom?
A. No, there is no twframework because this is not a Samsung rom. Nothing Samsung will work.
Q. Why is battery life so bad?
A. Known issue for this and CM7. Currently it is not fully optimized for our device.
Q: Can I use a different kernel?
A: Yes, you can use any Captivate CM7 kernel.
Q. I tried to toggle 2g and now I have no signal.
A. 3g/2g toggle works but you must disable data first. To get data back go to recovery wipe cache and davlik cache. Reboot. If that does not work try a modem flash or reflash rom.
Q: I installed swype, but it doesn't seem to work?
A: Download the Swype Installer from here. Follow the instructions all the way until the end until you get to the end. Reboot the phone and swype will now work. If you already tried to install swype, please clear the data on swype and swype installer and then uninstall both. Then try the fix.
Q: Why am I getting duplicate contacts after installing this Rom?
A: Log into your Google account online. Go into your account settings, view data stored with this account. Manage contacts, click the got duplicates button.
Q: Every time I flash MIUI, I reboot into CWM.
A: Go into Mounts and Storage
- Format System
- Format Cache
- Format Data
Q: Why can’t I make calls or connect to the mobile network?
A: Check to make sure your IMEI is correct. If not correct, flash RC2 then the version you were previously trying to install.
Q: After flashing the newest rom, my keyboard does not auto correct anymore.
A: Download the LatinIME.apk from the bottom of this post. Using Root Explorer move the LatinIME.apk into system/apps and change permissions to RW-W-W
X X O
X O O
X O O
Q: Why is my camera showing black?
A: While in the camera application, toggle your screen on and off.
Q: My 3d graphics aren’t as good as they were on previous versions.
A: They have been fixed in the newest update.

Already mentioned but just giving a little more detail. Auto-rotate doesn't seem to work on the home screen (possibly supposed to be this way?) and the menus rotate opposite from how you would want them to do so. Trying a different kernel now to see if it changes anything.
Other than that, I am loving the UI. Can't wait for the finished product.
EDIT: Issue persists with TheEscapist's CM7 kernel. Temporary solution is to disable auto-rotate. All menu's show up normally this way, but you can't view anything in landscape mode.

Yeah the auto rotate is kind of annoying I can't get it too work properly. Btw did you follow my instructions for the flash? I don't really care I just wanted too see if I listed them right lol and the media files don't seem to work with apps sometimes also , just putting that out there

Yes data works. This is a new build than from before. This one comes from the Nexus S that was ported over to the I9000. All the CM7 work has now opened up this rom to us Galaxy S users.

Try flashing another Captivate CM7 kernel. You may have the i9000 kernel installed. Also install the JK4 modem from the CM7 site.

[ROM][4.1.2][AOSP] LANIGHT (Project eXtreme Butter) [v8.5_Datadata/v6.0_Nodatadata]

This Rom is also available for Samsung GT-I9000 variant from HERE.
There is also a port for X-Bean from GT-I9000 from HERE.
This is it folks. If you think you've seen fast, you're in for a surprise! Please NO derivative work without permission.
LANIGHT is a pure AOSP build, meaning it is NOT CM or built from CM source, so please do NOT ask for CM features. However, it does use device/hardware files from CM10 and rest from Nexus S.. so any device specific problems that is in CM may or may not be in LANIGHT. If you don't like AOSP, move on.
I will rarely post on the thread mostly because of well known reason. It is a development thread, if you can't flash or download apps(Gmail and such) from market or simpler tasks, YOU ARE spamming the thread. Help yourselves by flashing stock firmware from Kies. Remember, I can't fix stupid or lazy. Please read the whole OP and search before you start typing. There has been NO bug that i have faced since my first release except the ringtone problem(4.2)(SOULTION) which has been solved with the latest release(5.2). If you have WiFi problems, flash anything 2.0 and above or below 5.2 (For 5.2 FLASH THIS.) because there is no telling what is the issue, i didn't face that issue so i don't know unless you provide log.

No reason, just a bit cautious. Will update kernel in future.

Thanks for that. Hows the rom feel like? snappy or what?
EDIT: Not sure about the latest since he been using LVM partitioning on 08/20 onwards? I'm not sure this rom is compatible with it? If it is then its all the reason for me to support this rom till the HB exist.
EDIT EDIT: I might have to steal some of your init.d tweaks from your MIUI rom for my next version

just flashed and followed all directions and wifi couldnt be turned on. changing modems and kernels didnt fix either

Yes, change modem please. It's most likely a modem issue for sure.

What do you mean? Try flashing 1.0.4 datadata cappy kernel.
EDIT: Flashed this build 4 times and still no problem with wifi or kernel. Did you wipe?

yea i wiped several times, ill try kernels and modem combos again again
oh and also ext sd card wouldnt mount in USB mode only internal so im guessing its kernel related again

No, listen just flash JVT or whatever modem you used to use on your previous JB build. Why are you swapping kernels? I don't understand. Did you have this problem before?
EDIT: Also, let me know which datadata kernels work for you. I need to know for my future release.

This is an old kernel and i choosed it for cautious purposes. Please don't poke around and cause yourself problems. Flash X-Bean or CM10 or AOKP first and try this rom. May fix it.
About the Ext SD card. I don't have an External SD card to test so that's why i put in the op it's untested. Not necessarily kernel related.

i did flash a modem i used with CM10 and wifi still couldnt turn on, and USB mount of ext sdcard problem was with kernel it came with right out the box. thats why i swapped kernels, but yea ill let u know which datadata kernels i use. just gotta find those kernels. havent kept up with all the new stuff and just saw this at the top of the forum
i been flashing this phone for years so i have a lil bit of clue of what im doing. i can usually solve some of my problems

I have downloaded the ROM from original site and flashed as per your recommendations in STALLION thread. It's great. I have some queries.
1. There were five patches whereas you have given seven.
2. How do you lock the screen? Is it only to be locked with POWER button. I use third party screen lock app tied up with long press search button which is not working here as this function is tagged with camera. Any alternative for screen lock?

1. Sorry, i made a mistake, there are only 6 of them, not 7. I dont know why u have only 5, and it doesnt realy matter.
2. I dont use any buttons to lock, screen timeout locks itself, or i use power button, but if u want, u can use search button, by doing this:
System Settings>System>Button>MI button>Trigger Toggle>Lock

I installed this rom yesterday from the chinese sources,you don't need all the 6 patches.There are 5 update patches and the 6th is the one you need,this is the final patch that includes ALL the other ones (20130101_U8800Pro-MIUI2.3.7 by FCS fix 20130104-12_update.zip)
to OP:There are 4 other files that came with the rom and i don't see them in the post.They are Sakura's Atmel screen fix,geno's gapps,flash player for this rom and the new miui compass that was not included in the original rom.If you don't have them tell me to upload them
If you want to put power button to search button go with root explorer to system/usr/keylayout open qwerty.kl with text editor,find key 217 and change it from ''CAMERA'' to ''POWER' and in the same line from ''WAKE DROPPED'' to ''WAKE'' .Save and reboot.Now pressing the search button closes the screen,long pressing it brings up the power menu.
People this is the best MIUI so far and the latest one with final release date 14/1/2013,Everything works.This is a special rom started by Geno,then Hay modded it,then Ry09iu modded it farther and lastly Sakura combined the mods of all of them together with his own and released this amazing rom.you got to try it

To korekore.
Great post. Very supportive.
I agree to you with first point. Five patches replaced by one single patch and I am using the same.
I will surely try your method OF search key lock /power button. I will surely try that.
Lately there are four more files of which I am using the gapps lite. My touch screen send to be working ok and I have not flashed the atmel kernel mod. BTW how to know whether I have a ATMEL or SYNAPTICS hardware?
Lastly waiting for Your English version apks.
Great ROM. Dream of similar JB ROM.
Thank you.

On your phone dialer you dial *#*#2846579#*#*
A menu will appear,then you go to project menu->upgrade->touchscreen firmware upgrade->touch screen version query and it will show you if it is ATMEL or SYNAPTICS.
Be aware however that this menu does not appear on all custom roms. For example in CM7 if you try it, nothing will happen.

For what is this FIX?
For me the 4 button does not lighting

That fix improves speed, stability, adds V6 SuperCharger script, improves power saving, etc.
No button backligt is not a bug, but you can "fix" it by doing this:
Download any root exploring app, go to sys>class>leds>button-backlight> edit it like text, and write 255>save it

Yes,I tried it too on MIUI but like CM7 it doesnt work in these roms. It works on official/stock rom 100%, i checked it on my official rom before installing this MIUI.
If you have a recovery backup of the stock/official rom you can restore the official rom and try it there, it will work there 100%.

Which kernel to b flashed for this Rom?
Sent from my X10i using xda premium

if anyone use it let's tell us if this rom is for one day or for often use and someone please post screenshots

korekore1 can you upload the four files you were talking about before and the final patch?
Thank you.

Please guys, there would be no help given if the problem is not because of xnote.
Before asking mods related stuff please check if there is an xposed module active as almost all the time that seems to be problem.
And for people having 4g issues. This thread is for N9005 ,not for any other variants. We still try to help as much as we can. But dont move questions between threads.. if you need help. Pm users like @djbrian52 @Upstreammiami @Ark1406 as they are pretty helpful when it comes to other variants. As for other questions if not answered promptly please eat @Khizar 's brain

A. Goto Xnote ControlApp>>Extras>> Color StatusBar Mods ,Check the Content
Q."How do you change the DPI of the device?"
A. First Boot DPI is set to 360dpi in X-NOTE 11 , if you want to go back to stock the value is ( 480 ).Use X-Transformer to set your DPI. Follow the instructions properly.
Q."How do you remove the power button the left, and the home button on the right on status bar?"
A. Go into X-Note Control, Extra Settings, then uncheck both show/hide home button and show/hide lock button. And Restart SystemUI.

A. Go to X-Note Control App >> X-Note Panel >> Battery Bar Settings

Q."Can I overclock on X-Note Kernel?"
A. No
Q."The bootanimation is so flashy, too flashy for my eyes to bear, I'm planning to move on to another ROM if they don't change this!!!"
A. HOLD UP! You can change the boot animation easily by going into the OTA section of X-Note, download the BIOS boot animation and flash it in recovery. OR! You can flash the zip provided by myself (fahadali2315) on the 3rd post below that would get you the default X-Note 7 Boot Animation!
FIRMWARE/RECOVERY/BOOT/KERNEL RELATED
Q."Would I need the Poland firmware to install? Or can I use my locally released KK as a base for flashing X-Note?"
A. If you have KitKat already installed, you will already have the bootloader required to flash X-Note. Hence, all you need to do is get to KitKat using any method
Q."What other kernels should I try?"
A. CivZ's SnapKat Kernel or Wootever's N3 Kernel are quite good. NOTE: You WILL trip your KNOX if you haven't already.
Q."What is the difference between stock kernel and stock kernel with init.d added?"
A. The init.d is a more advanced user option, where it allows the automatic execution of the scripts contained with /system/etc/init.d folder at each boot. Only select this if you plan to use scripts.
Q."What is this BTU CSC? What would happen if I live in XXXXX and my region is not specified?"
A. CSC means Customer Sales Code, and contains Carrier Settings and information. Installing a BTU CSC on an Australian device would not affect anything. It only gives you extra options.
Q."Why isn't my modem updated after installing the ROM? It's still at NA2!"
A. The ROM does not, and will never have, a modem install option. If you want to install/update a specific modem, you will have to flash it in Odin manually.
KITKAT 4.4 RELATED
Q. I cannot get into Tablet mode ?
A. It is because of the lovely updates from GOOGLE to blame
Q."Ongoing notifications are pushed down and temporary notifications are placed on top of the ongoing notifications! What's going on?"
A. This is a new Android 4.4 feature and is not yet changeable.
Q."On 4.3 when I swiped down on the notification bar, no matter where I swiped I would be able to pull it down. Now on the latest X-Note, when I swipe close to the right of the screen, the notification bar goes from transparent to dark...why is this?"
A.There is no workaround for this, as this is an official 4.4 feature so that it allows users to view the notification status bar with a solid background instead of intruding what is behind it. It is a visually pleasing feature over functionality.
Q."What is the Kit Kat Addons in Aroma?"
A. They are the CM11 apps that get installed usually when you install a CyanogenMod ROM, they include the AOSP Clock, 8sms and AOSP Calculator apps.
XPOSED/OTHER MODSQ. "When I press the volume buttons on the homescreen, I get a volume scrubber with a gear icon. When I click on the gear icon, it enlarges but there used to be more options to scrub for Media, System and Alarm. What happened?"
A. This is due to GravityBox. Make sure you select Media Tweaks -> Expandable Volume Panel -> Fully Expandable Volume Panel and if you want Expand Automatically.
Q."What's wrong with Xposed? Whenever I enable a module, nothing happens!"
A. Have you installed the latest version of Xposed and rebooted.
Q."The call recorder function only gives me a hissing noise when I playback, what's wrong?"
A. Not Supported in 4.4.2
Q: Why is YouTube force closing as soon as I click on it on my launcher?
A.The latest Youtube as of March 13th conflicts with the Xposed module YouTube AdAway, Disable it in Xposed and it will stop force closing on app start.The latest update in Xposed Installer (1.6) fixes the crash, so make sure you update it
Q. My Playstore shows incompatible phone when i try downloading some apps?
A. Download xposed module Playstore Fixes and set your phones original density(480) to sent to google. Then it will work
Q. I have weird looking bar on top of Contacts/Dialer.
A. Disable Menu Overflow from Gravitybox.
Thanks to @Khizar for this find.
OTHERS
Q. Screen Rotation is not working after deleting SamsungHub.apk?
A. Flash this file to fix it .Link Thanks to @Killberty for the link
Q."After flashing the ROM my Wifi and 4G/3G is not very good, what's wrong?"
A. It is not the ROM's fault, this is your Modem. Make sure you installed your region's modem on your phone. Don't go around asking where to get the 'latest' modem, as the latest is not the greatest in all cases. Use the modem you usually believe to be the best. 4.3 modems are not compatible with 4.4 ROMs.
Q.Is this ROM working properly on other variants?
A. It works well on N900W8 and N900T provided that you install the patches required for it to work. There is also an N900A version on the AT&T section.
Q."How do I dirty flash this ROM?"
A. This is generally not recommended, but if you must do it on your own JUST FLASH THE AROMA SETUP AND IT WILL WIPE YOUR SYSTEM AUTOMATICALLY .
Q."Something is wrong with my multiwindow, shown here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CiqktHuVa6A
A. Well, you're a strange one, If you are using Swiftkey, stop using it now. If not, flash the latest ROM and see if it fixed.
Q."My battery is draining heavily! What's going on?"
A. Download BetterBatteryStats from the second post of this thread and look for what is eating your battery and greenify that damn app :BBS LINK
Q. What should I do if my NFC/BT/Wifi isn't working?
A. Make sure you have flashed stock, kernel, modem, and everything up to date on the 4.4.2 iterations of the files. If you have anything 4.3, that is likely to cause problems. DO NOT FLASH THE N900W8 NFC/Wifi/BT FIX AS IT WILL NOT HELP. Clear your cache/dalvik cache.
KNOX
Q."I don't want to trip KNOX when installing X-Note! How should I approach this?"
A. Use this Guidebut there is no definite proof of not tripping KNOX if you know what you're doing.Be sure that you do not install any recovery from Aroma Installer, or else say goodbye to your KNOX Warranty.
IF YOU FOLLOW FLASHING ANY OTHER WAY YOU WILL DEFINATELY TRIP KNOX 0x1
TIPS- Samsung Email have big characters when writing a email in some density, recommended to install in aroma AOSP email or use Xposed
- Use Xlarge res (with xposed app settings module) for samsung Video app (com.samsung.everglades.video) at lower densities

Q: Will this new update trip my KNOX when I'm already on the 0x0 leaked Mexican Bootloader?
A: No it will not. No updates will. No kernels will. As the recovery does not write to the Bootloader, your bootloader will always be "happy".
Q. "What other kernels should I try if I'm a Canadian user?"
A. CivZ's SnapKat kernel or Wootever's N3 Kernel (Make sure you select the N900T version)
Q. What should I do if my NFC/BT/Wifi isn't working?
A. Did you flash the NFC/Wifi/BT fix? If yes, make sure you cleared cache and dalvik, as well as Fixing Permissions in CWM/TWRP so that the permissions are cleaned next boot.
Q. "How do I dirty flash this ROM?"
A. Check this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=50477486&postcount=662

Updating Bootloader or Modem
if you are already on stock kitkat 4.4 , you dont need the bootloader . If you are on 4.3 flash the bootloader provided in OTA links same goes for MODEM.
Procedure for MODEM
1.Download the file for modem ,
2. Power off your phone completely , press home +vol down + power and go into download mode when it shows two options press volume up
3.Plug your phone into PC
4.Open Odin 3.09 and select CP or for older versions select phone
5.Choose the modem.tar.md5 file you downloaded .
6.Dont touch anything else in odin
7.Start the procedure , it will restart the phone itself . Go in about device if it still shows NA2 or older baseband do the procedure again .
it tends to work the second time.
Same Procedure for BOOTLOADER
Just change CP OR PHONE TO AP OR PDA for Bootloader in odin.

Hello. Is it possible to Centre clock on xnote 11 ? Thanks for answers

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
The only possible way to center the clock is using xposed modules, but it won't work if you have OGbatteryMod enabled As it interferes with other statusbar mods .
So if you are willing to disable OGBATTERY, then you can center the clock however you want.

1. how to move clock to center together with the network meter? (tried with gravity box, not moved. didn't use wanam since it will cover the network meter) edit: so which module do you use to center the clock and make battery circle with %?
2. how to disable og battery mod? (since i read, it does interfere with other xposed module...) edit: ah...you explained it again above
3. is solo reading this thread? maybe he can give some answer...

Erase your BatteryMod by flashing the erase file .
BatteryMod Erase & Restore
Use Gravity Box or wanam Xposed to do whatever you want after that
Wanam has all the features . Battery % and statusbar mods . Check them out.

This thread is a great idea... thanks.
Q. How can I restore the stock boot animation with sound?

Wow Using Wanam after ages and this is what i make of my notification bar it took me less than 5mins.

Not really. A new Samsung "feature" is to disable any new baseband updates on 4.4.2 if you don't have "official" rom/kernel status. In order to flash a new baseband you need to use TriangleAway to get official status, boot immediately to download mode and install a modem with Odin.
