There are four parts to red sonja.

1. install the beta rom, the phone will automatically reboot, wait until it boots to a black screen(it wont boot any further than that). pull the batt, reinsert the batt and manually boot into cwm.

2. next you flash the revert mod, again it will reboot automaticaly, but this time the rom WILL boot.

3. after the rom loads, reboot back into CWM, and flash step 1.

4. after it reboots again reboot in cwm one more time and flash step 2. Presto you have red sonja

you can find all 4 zips on the OP of red sonja. i recommend using a pc to download files then transfer to root of sd card. hope that helps
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Mortem Tuam:
Hopefully we'll have a Q&A section for each ROM in the Q&A section soon. Having a Q&A section for each ROM helps keep the ROM thread clean and questions in one central location.

Hope you get your question answered soon :cool:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] cdshepherd:
Agreed! the inspire thread had this, helped alot.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] mspaulding06:
Awesome, thanks so much! Will be trying this again later tonight.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] cdshepherd:
No problem, just a quick reminder. The zips are labeled in order in the op. Make sure you have at least 50% battery before flashing, and most important of all.....a nandroid backup in case things go hay wire on ya.

The links for the four packages of Red Sonja have been kept up to date correct? May seem like a stupid question, but I've seen it happen before.

[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] Rapier07:
When it says it requires data, press the"back" button once. Then press the home button. You will get a notification for gta3 on the status bar.. Click on it and the game will start
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] Halco:
Ok. But now, the game doesn't launch and back to the homescreen ^^ (without FC)

Game doesn't work with me :)

Tips and tricks that help better use of your Note

1. To read at night, display brightness can be dimmed using the app 'screen filter' at http://market.android.com/search?q=pname:com.haxor . (Galaxytab1)

2. ezPdf has this 'freehand' annotation, pen can write on the pdf file and saved there itself, visible on any platform as comments within the pdf.

https://market.android.com/details?id=udk.android.reader&hl=en (Galaxytab1)

3. Use this app to get to camcorder directly, bypassing camera.

http://market.android.com/search?q=p...wens.Camcorder (Galaxytab1)

4. You can connect any mouse and keyboard plus any samsung printer to galaxy note just using on-the-go cable. (bdodge1989)

5. It is not something exclusive to galaxy note, butI discovered these Swype keypad shortcuts on my note: (galaxytab1)

I. Swype key to '123' key swipe: edit options

II. Swype key to 'a'key swipe: select all

III. Swype key to 'x', 'c', 'v'key swipe: cut, copy, paste respectively.

IV. Swype key to 'r' or 't' or 'y' key swipe: numeric keyboard. (este548)

6. One of the best features I like on the GNote is the Clipboard,I havn't noticed this in any other Android device.

one can select the text in almost any application and it will be copied to the Clipboard,I have downloaded an App called AndClip from the Market(free),with it I can View,copy,Delete etc. all the texts which are copied to the Clipboard.

Very usefull feature. (hagba)

7. The notification bar is tough to draw on such a large screen with single hand use, which is why I am using this app:

https://market.android.com/details?i...tusbarexpander Place it on swipepad or other launchers or home screen. (galaxytab1)

8. In the Note, you can set your physical buttons to both answer and end calls.

Go to settings-> accessibility-> Call answering and ending and enable these options

9. In S Planner, letting go after a held tap on a date box in Month view, or [the small space under the date]* in Week/3Days/Days view, will bring out S Memo Lite and what you scribble will be saved to the day where you entered it.

10. Just like in contacts, while in messaging, the swiping to the left to send a text (why?) and swiping to the right to call are still functional.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] hagba:
Have a look at the famous HD2 stickies that's the way it should be, for two years millions of hits served us all very well.

On the other hand, I haven't seen being mentioned anywhere in this thread that if you pinch in the home screen will let you see all the pages minimized,you can choose by touching one of them.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] galaxytab1:
Thanks, the home screen pinch-zoom is more a general android feature.

Im still going to add to the thread to keep it updated, all the info is gathered so making a wiki as galaxytab1 suggested would surely be an easily accomplishable task. Never done one so will have a read?

Jamie
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] galaxytab1:
That works too, but on home screen only
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] galaxytab1:
There are apps in the market which help you answer call when you can't touch the slider (like when wearing gloves or driving). Further, the large screen size of note can make it difficult to use slider to answer calls when holding phone with one hand.

On the Note, you can set your physical buttons to both answer and end calls.

Go to settings-> accessibility-> Call answering and ending and enable these options.

This is a somewhat general Android feature but is more relevant in the case of large screen note which is why i mentioned this here.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] jamieross:
Theres more options in the note than the s2 as my wife has the s2....

How about if that collab page had the same posts on it since it's okay that way then just delete everything under it before locking it?

It's closed because it is supposed to be a compilation of what is posted here.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] maxh:
My favorite way to mute incoming calls is to hit the volume down button, though this is a general Android tip. Muting calls lets the phone ring the standard number of rings (usually 4) before going to voicemail, so the calling person doesn't know that you've intentionally rejected their call; you might have just missed it. Rejecting the call with the red button on the screen sends the call to voicemail immediately, so the caller does know you didn't pick up on purpose.

Sorry if you already know the difference between muting and rejecting calls! I happen to know a couple of people that don't, so thought I'd throw it out there.

Many sites are not that useful in their mobile version. To use desktop version or those eye-candy iOS versions, you need to either:

1. Install browsers from market like Opera Mobile or Dolphin

2. Tweak the it user-agent of your stock browser which is pretty good in itself. Here is how:

In address bar, enter:

"about:useragent" and hit go.

This window will appear where you can set user agent to desktop or iOS.

Issue:

The browser resets to original user-agent when you launch next time.

Solution:

Bookmark this address for quick access

Another issue:

You can't simply create a new bookmark or add this to bookmarks

Solution:

Edit one of your existing bookmarks with it

Damn it, another issue:

The bookmark will not execute on it's own.

Solution:

Tap address bar and hit enter.

Doesn't work for me. But it is also possible to hide Swype keyboard by swiping from "Swype" key to "Backspace".
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] maxh:
I find the easiest way to hide the Swype keyboard is simply to hit the back button (capacitive one on front of phone.) This also takes the focus off of the text box, but it's no more work to get the cursor and keyboard back than when hiding it your way: just tap the text box.

Taking pictures in bright sunlight

When outdoors in bright daylight, there is a setting to make it easier to see the screen when taking photographs...

In the camera app, tap 'Settings' then scroll down to select 'Outdoor Visibility'

It basically ramps up the brightness and contrast values to maximum but it's an improvement none the less.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] galaxytab1:
Talkback is for text to voice.

NOled is a 3rd party app (which you downloaded probably). It indicates missed calls and messages or other alerts from your screen as a substitute for LED indicators in other phones.

one more question since la1 update is currently not available in india

I would say wait for official ICS update by Samsung, it is slated for Q1, so you don't have to wait longer than 75 days in any case. Also, play around with your first Android for these 75 days, you will get ICS before you get bore. And then play with ICS...
