New Stock ROM XXLA3

GT-N7000	N7000XXLA3 Android 2.3.6	2012 January	N7000OXALA3	Open Europe

http://hotfile.com/dl/141781856/f226b7d/N7000XXLA3_N7000OXALA3_OXA.rar.html

pass: samfirmware.com

So just I have install XALA3,

No doubt it is fast n smoother than LA7 my previous ROM

Edit : battery management is improved, I can say it consumes 10-20 % less thn KL7 my previous ROM. particularly with 3G, without data connection it is almost same.

I have played 5 min only with new ROM, But better I am writing Installation guide,

I will share experience later.

What I have done to update

- My previous ROM was KL7 + Root + CWM

- I have make backup of previous ROM using CWM, as well Titanium (optional)

- Downloaded LA3, N extracted

- Made a folder on Ext SD card named "firmware"

- Copy these three files to Ext SDcard/firmware (To a folder created as above said)

CODE_N7000XXLA3_CL880036_REV02_user_low_ship.tar.md5

GT-N7000-MULTI-CSC-OXALA3.tar.md5

MODEM_N7000XXLA3_REV_05_CL1095424.tar.md5

Opened CWM,

you have to click on " Flash stock firmware"

made couple of click to confirm

when asked which file to use for 'caches' selected Multi CSC *

When asked Rooting, i selected ' CF ROOT'

Done

It Took 5 min to finish, Now I am having LA3 + Root + CWM

Indian language support +(tried hindi n gujarati)

This is wipe version, will erase System partition

Get data back with Titanium backup/ 'data backup' from CWM if you have made.

Alternate Method

You can Use Mobile Odin Pro, by selecting Code * file + enable everroot option

Its rooted "only".
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] dr.ketan:
Later CWM can be added with CF Root (when available), may be CF Root LA1 will work.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] paris.gr:
What do you think quys? Did you try it yet? Any differences compared to the previous release?

Also when flashing do you use pit or not? If yes what does the pit and repartition do?

Finally i flashed it and everything is ok. However i didn't use the pit and repartition option.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] walda:
You don't need pit or repartition!

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] levelone:
Just one question regarding all these ROMs, is there a changelog somewhere so we can take a look at? New ROMS are always welcomed of course, but it would be awesome if we could see the changes beforehand. It would save a lot of time since we could only upgrade -and therefore wipe- only after a major update.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] be_vigilant:
Here is my experience. I extracted the rom. Deoex zip align. Ripped out all the samsung bloatware crap. Slipped in the latest swype and abyss 3.1 kernel and flashed nowipe over la1. The rom does feel smoother esp noticeable using stock browser. Pages render quicker and the experience is much slicker.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] kalkanisvec:
thats true,you can even flash back the orginal one afterwards.still rooted,done everything with odin:D

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] Bassarnis:
This is the only change-log announced by the site's admin. Samsung is known not to release change-logs for their firmware updates. Keep in mind these are not official Roms (those come via KIES). They are more like stable betas given by a trusty source.

Delete any apps you want from the app folder (don't delete important ones)

I add in the CRT-Screen off mod

I delete the battery warning.ogg to stop the annoying beep from waking me up when charging phone over night.

Hi mates thanks for you're work, quick question:

Can I restore the data of an odexed stock ROM to a deodexed ROM? Sounds like it would cause troubles

Sent from my GT-N7000
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] jamonda:
Hi.

I have read somewhere that this is a wipe ROM and that I can have all my apps back, with no hickups, if after flashing I restore the data partition with CWM Recovery. Has anybody tried doing so? Will this procedure also give me back my applications folders? I have used Titanium Backup and I like it, but it does not give me the folders back.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] dr.ketan:
You may get data back with selecting'data' restore from cwm, but i don't think it will give folder Back.

As it is system part.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] matius44:
DeOdexed

Can someone please provide a DeOdexed version please?

need that to add language support manually
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] pkshr:
Can you please elaborate more on the indian language support. I am using a EU galaxy note in USA and right now flashed this rom without any root. I would like to know more about the indian language support (devnagari) .

Thanks
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] dr.ketan:
I mean to say you can read indian language on browser, SMS,Facebook etc

I have tested hindi n gujarati on LA3.

To type in such languages you have to download keyboard support accordingly. It can be easily found on market
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] pkshr:
Okay, just wanted to confirm the same. I can view the websites in devnagari right out of the box. I believe i could do similar in the previous roms too.

Thank you very much
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] kaiboo73:

Keep ever root option enabled

Flash

Done

GudLuck !
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] speedofheat:
^^ You can use Mobile Odin Pro to do so. Select the "Code" file to fill in all the appropriate parameters. Then select "Cache" and choose the CSC file and then select "Modem" and choose the modem file. Flash and you are all set.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] schaggo:
Just a quick remark: the ROM is XXLA3, not XALA3. And the CSC is OXA. Doesn't really matter though, it's just LA3 :)

I'll post a guide complete with images soon on how to get things done.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] dr.ketan:
Thogh it is corrected, N if you dont mind will update your images to OP
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] runaway64:
My own experience with N7000XXLA3:

- When phone is not being used, CPU gets to deep sleep for longer periods of time, improving a lot battery drain when unused.

The diference is showing even with data and synchronization enabled, experienced with H+ and wifi connections over night.

-Better touch responsiveness, specially when selecting text and moving the slider, it was rather difficult before XXLA1, since then, it very precise and easy.

- Rendering and scrolling in the browser and accross every menu of the phone is buttery smooth.

To prove this, the best I could do are vellamo benchmark score, now for me is over 900 points.

-Quadrant Score: 3794.

-javascript sunspider 0.9.1: Between 1700-1800 ms

-Broswermark is getting 94.000-96.000 points with stock browser.

-Swype has better localization, with the Spanish key "ñ" included, I don't know if it applies to other non-English languages too, these details are very nice touches.

The only downside is to not be able to root directly (big disappointment) and inability from titanium to defrost applications. But, for the moment, I can live with both of them.

So, this updated ROM feels fast and evolved, I think it is a very good software on android 2.3.6, could they focus entirely in getting this quality in Android 4.0.3, pretty please?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] indiandroid:
Is upgrading from LA1 to LA3 worth the upgrade ? ;)

I think I have better H+ speeds now, LA1 in that aspect seemed worse.

Also I believe battery usage when screen is off is tighter now.

These changes may seem subtle but noticeable.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] runaway64:
My wifi speed has also improved greatly.

Using kies air, on a wifi 5Ghz network WPA2 secured, I can transfer files at 40-50mbps, this is 6,5MB/s which may start to be limited by flash writing speed...

Before, it was upper thirties, but below 40 always.

I am transferring files from the same spot, my desk which is about 1m (3 feet) from the AP point.

Considering the speed link is rated at 65mbps, I am truly impressed!!

I might point this only when pushing files to the Note, if I do it from the note, I can only get 35mbps aproximately.

I just put it on and have a couple gmail accounts that show I have emails and that won't go away. I guess restoring data from la1 did it. Guess I'll go reset since I can't remove ths main account.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] schaggo:
@carhigh In Settings > Accounts untick GMail as sync option for all accounts which do not behave. Give it some time to "unsync" the accounts, maybe reboot once or twice, and after like 30 minutes, 1h maybe, just after sufficient time has gone by to make Android clear all GMail related content from the accounts in question, go and re-tick the sync option for GMail again. This should freshly resync the data and the old mails should be gone. Eventually, at least ;)

Hey Doc... I know you've already upgraded to LA4. Care to share here how you did it?

Specifically I'm interested in knowing what file to use for "caches"?

I'm downloading the ROM right now so I don't know which files are present in the package.

Brgds... /Tubgirl
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] dr.ketan:
Here You will get single file only.

I have flashed it with CWM

Here is steps :

Was on XXLA3 + Root + CWM

Copy extracted firmware to Ext SD/firmware/N700**LA4***

CWM - Flash

select to flash Stock ROM

selected - point to extracted file when asked for Modem

selected - Multi CSC of LA3 - when asked for cache(And this way i got wipe data), if you select same extracted file , you wont lose data. but I am in india n i feel multi CSC is for non germen is correct choice, and so i have no 'null null ' error n indian language support i retained.

select - when asked about rooting - keep CF root

Flash

Done

Now I have

Baseband XXLA4

Build XXLA4

Kernel CF Root KL7(which was i have), n will change when it available for LA4, but really i dont think it may need, i am using this kernel KL7 for KL7, LA1, LA3 n now LA4, no any issue still

Also works on la4. In titanium set a filter for the apps you want to defrost, go to the batch menu (press the settings key and select batch) then select the power defrost. Reboots after and then your apps are defrosted.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] schaggo:
If you don't apply a separate CSC file but take the one which comes with the firmware package - it's a single file release this time round - which is also the default option, it won't even wipe your data. LA4 is a non-wipe release.

I am running stock ROM, rooted. I am open to other ROMs if that's what it takes.

The VZW nexus is for CDMA networks. I am pretty sure you cannot use it on GSM networks...

The verizon phone has CDMA 1x/3G radios and a 700mhz LTE radio.

Unless you can use those bads, the verizon version is no good for you. You need the GSM version, look around online for the best price.
