after few day of usage, i noticed it gets warmer even i didnt overclock it. i am on rrv3 wit franco kernel v5.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] jurrea:
I'm on KD 2.1 and Franco kernel v5, when overclocking 200-1.6 had two sod 's within ten minutes, I have had to revert to 200-1400 and now all is working fine.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] rilpromen:
Anyone can confirm that flashing the rom and the r5 kernel in one zip solves the wifi problem?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] HTF:
Cheers for this info, it is obviously nothing to do this kernel then and it is to do with CM9.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] papasieg:
I'm not going to use it atm, flashed it thow it works fine but my device works excelent on stock rom
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] globalm:
I don't think it's quite straightforward. All I am cautious about at the moment is jumping to conclusions.

Franco has removed the MMC_CAP_ERASE flag from his source which should prevent erase before format. It should also prevent problems with formatting from recovery and formatting as part of an install using ICS update-binary (which may be the CM9 situation).

If the few brick reports we have seen recently are verified to occur with Franco kernel correctly and verifiably installed and they are genuine hard bricks with unwriteable partitions, then we may be looking for something other than MMC_CAP_ERASE as the source of the problem.

My point in all this is that we have a wide range of experience and knowledge out there and we should not cry 'Superbrick' until we are sure of the circumstances in which it is happening.

I thought the article I referenced was very informative but I don't know if CM9 has issues of its own. I suspect it does, as it does not seem to like being installed from ICS and there may be partition issues if this is done. I would think installing a GB ROM with PIT should correct this kind of problem but I'm no expert.

I can only say to anybody who is bricked to post the info and try all recovery methods known. If all else fails, the community developers need to know to see if GNote has its own special problems. (Hope not!)

Verry verry nice :D what rom are you using?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] SpacioIT:
had the same issue, 4 times in 3 days since I flashed r5, using dolphin twice, reading an sms 5 minutes ago. Yesterday happened on 3g connection, not on wi-fi. I think i'll go back to r4.

I had the wi-fi dhcp issue flashing r4 from cwm, too. I solved it flashing (and wiping) lpy again and then flashing r4 from mobile odin and now dhcp is working correctly.

Hope these info can help someone.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] shaolin95:
Thanks! :)

That one was with ROCKET ROM - v3 - ICS - LPY but I am going back to Cassie's XtraLiteRom ICS Version 2.9 LQ2 Thunderbolted as I feel is a bit smoother overall. :D

Hey Franco, what rom are you using with this kernel?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] jeanmichel6:
What happen with your note? Did you fix the wifi issue? I want to change the kernel to speed mod one but i will get that annoying triangle... So i want to try another workaround... Maybe trying to put wifi settings... But im not able to change those values
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] iarapilot:
You shouldnt get the triangle if you use mobile oden. Not sure about CWM.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] xuggs:
I bricked it trying to fix the damn wifi issue.. It's with samsung service now. You can avoid the triangle by using CF tools. 1) flash SpeedMod kernel (you will get the triangle), 2) extract a stock zImage from your stock ROM (triangle gone), 3) flash SpeedMod kernel again.. and you are done. Good luck!

Edit: It's a soft brick but my /data is corrupt, it wont wipe or format.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] chriswilson_m3:
I am having problems with the Wifi. I first flashed the latest UK ICS rom (N7000XXLQ2_N7000XEULP4_XEU), and then tried the latest Chainfire kernal. I had problems with the Wifi with that, so I tried the Franco Kernal, and same problem with that. I have re-flashed the stock ROM, and all is well again.

If anyone has an answer to that I would be grateful.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] jeanmichel6:
Ohh men... I was about to start that method to solve the wifi issue... But i decided to jump to speedmod kernel and flash it with cwm recovery.. With that method i avoid the yellow triangle and hopefully i will fix the wifi issue... I will comment here my experience when i do it...

Yeah strange it works lol

Ok... I switched to speedmod kernel and wifi its back on.. Really annoying bug in franco kernel... I did the jbrod cleaning script for kernels.. And then flashed speedmod with cwm without issues... Everything just fine! Finally on a custom kernel without problems!!

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] shaolin95:
Is the default voltage for 1.6ghz 1450 as read by Tegrak?

My phone needs only 1300 so maybe that is making other phones have issues?

Just a thought.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] mpoweru:
BTW. I have been in your situation before. The soft brick with a corrupt system and/or data partition. I was couldnt flash kernel or rom any longer as it would not move further. When I tried to use PC ODIN I would get the factorfs fail. The fix was a reflash of GB Stock with a pit and repartition and factory reset in PC ODIN. The end fix if this doesnt work is the new pit patch which creates a partition on your internal sd. You lose 3gigs, but it writes your system on new partition and works wonders. Saves 250 euro to replace the motherboard. FYI.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] Astrix Ashburn:
Thanks Franco of your kernel. Using it seen GB :D

Shutdown by itself. Running Criskelo v3 with franco r5:

- SetCPU 200/1.6 on demand(No Tegrak used).

- ***Listen to FM Radio and surfnet using ICS Browser+, System shutdown almost few times :eek: and pull battery to power on :o (Phone seem warm)***

- Flash back to franco r4 and do as above, seem working good. :thumbup:

- Never have any issue on wifi, pixel..etc on r3, r4 and r5 except r5 cause system shutdown.

Any advice or anything that I can create report to assist?

Well i was on stunner then i went to kingdroid by flashing abyss, rebooting recovery, doing the 3 wipes and flashing kingdroid v2.. it came with r3 by default i think.. then i used speedmod for a while and again returned to r5.. flashed the kernels via recovery after wiping cache and dalvik both times.

Reflash Modem appears to fix wi-fi

In response to all of the above, I reflashed the LR1 modem , as per Not-i's ihelp, and wi-fi not automatically gets address and also data is much more responsive. A bit quicker than flashing entire ROM. Hope that helps!;)

Hi Franco. Great kernel, quite in line with your previous gb ones.

I'm on r5 and I've just had my first ever pixel salad! Never had it on any gb franco kernel (v2-v10) or any rom. I'm currently on Liquidsmooth v2.1 if it has any importance.

I turned the screen off and on and things were back to normal. This may be (I hope) only a one time issue, but since there was quite a discussion about it on GB days I thought it worth mentioning.

I had less problems then many of r5 users but yesterday I got several Delphin HD freezes and decided to reflash r5 again and since that time everything is more then just perfect!

1)reboot in CWM

2)wipe dalvik

3) fix permissions

4) flash r5

5) reboot

Perfect!

Hi there. I had some weird issues too with Cassie's XtraLiteRom ICS Version 2.9 LQ2 + Franco's #5.

Finally I did a fresh install of the ROM +(reboot)+ JBroid clean script + flash Franco's kernel #5 and I am now one entire day functioning perfect.

i am now exploring powersave options so see if I can get beyond a day usage... I came from CM9 and Paranoid ROMS (enjoy very much tablet mode) but battery leak was so bad I couldn't stand a day without recharging my Note.

DDLP4 India Stock ICS

hi

i flashed franco r5 few minutes ago over my rooted stock indian ICS DDLP4 with DDLP8 modem.

there is a MAJOR performance jump.. i was getting a quadrant score of 3314 previously and now i'm geting 4715 which is slightly better than ONE X.

the problem is that my WI-FI wont connect anymore.. it finds the network but keeps trying to connect and can't obtain IP address from my WIFI router.

i've been using WIFI all morning today before flashing R5 and it was working fine but has stopped after flashing.

I tried flashing R4 but same WIFI not connecting problem.

can anyone please help me out.. i tried reading up but didnt find a solution

thanks people
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] aussiebum:
Using Mobile Odin, try flashing kernel back to stock LP4, then --> CWM LP4 --> Franco r5?

Just a thought.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] shaolin95:
Can someone try if the MHL is working with Franco 5 please?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] Entropy512:
Should be.

Are you SURE you were running a Franco kernel that was built after May 25?

If you flashed it with Mobile Odin - see all of the reports from multiple people of MO frequently failing to flash the kernel.

I've seen two people so far claim superbricks from Franco. I think there are three, maybe four possibilities:

1) They weren't actually running Franco's kernel, or were running an old build (r1 or r2 which are not safe)

2) When he released R3, Franco accidentally released an older binary (I've done this before...) - That's why a few days ago I recommended that people verify their build date in CPUSpy

3) Disabling MMC_CAP_ERASE isn't the fix - but if this were the case, there would be piles of reports of superbricks from:

Hardcore's kernel users

Users of my I777 and N7000 CM9 test kernels from Thursday evening

Users of I777,I9100, and N7000 CM9 kernels from Sunday's nightly onwards

Users of I9100 SiyahKernel 3.2.6.4 or later

Flashing CM9 from an ICS kernel that has been "rendered safe" by disabling MMC_CAP_ERASE is OK. There's a reason, for example, that the recommended "safe" kernel in the CM9 thread is an ICS one.

It's "diagnostic" for Superbrick. It's "curative" if you just have mild /system corruption that causes /system to be mounted read-only and unmountable in recovery. (CM9 kernel has a change that SHOULD fix the latter condition by not mounting /system automatically in recovery.)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] EdgaBimbam:
Dear entropy,

maybe you know, who caused this issue? "screen colors changed and stucked" only removing battery helped. This issue got plenty people with r5

This is just an observation report and not a complaint...

If I select SQlite in the kernel app I notice no difference in normal use but Antutu scores drop 1,800 points. I have replicated this many times by changing the setting and rebooting.

Using stock kernel settings (conservative etc).

PS I know... benchmarking blah blah blah.

When do you think you'll get around to posting the derived source? The source at the github link from the OP doesn't seem to have been updated - and actually appears at first glance to just be the N700 source unmodified from what samsung has posted. I wouldn't mind poking around to see what you've done (and might submit some pulls to you.)

Im the same. Somtimea struggling to get above 3000! Other kernels are getting over 5000. Still the general responsiveness of this kernel to the user outweighs the benchmark decreases

I agree kernel works great so far. Everyday use and smoothness is much more important than benchmark scores. No current issues with overheating or stuttering. However would be nice for some OC :)

Franco your clear explanation in your OP is a godsend :-)

I hope you will roll in the TUN device for use with VPN.

I'm loving r5. People need to just put min cpu to 500 and all will be fine. With min cpu at 500 you do lose battery faster when using it, however, it's smooth as hell. If we were able to use min 200 without the SOD, intermittent lag and pixel salad, this kernel would be superb.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] jager13:
I actually did it like you, injected r5 into ROM then flashed it (full wipe, clean install)! All was perfect the 1st 2 days, then i got a SOD, restarted, started installing app from market, phone froze and onscreen colors changed. I had to power off then on again! all was cool! Today in the morning i had another freeze also while downloading from market, powered off restarted! My 3rd freeze which was a couple of hours ago was fatal! powered off the phone, restarted but phone was stuck on samsung animation! reflashed r5, took a while for it to start (like 10 min approx) then when it finaly booted, all apps force closed including launcher and system! I could even back up my apps. Tried different kernel got same FCs! I had to flash everything from 0.

Just to be clear, i've been using franco since #1 for GB, never experienced any lag or "pixel salad" or SODs till r5. Love the smoothness this kernel brings to my Note and i simply love the battery life with it!

I'm now on franco r4 till r6 (or fixed r5) comes!

But then... after 3 days...I received a phonecall and could not pick it up because my phone was frozen. The screen had all colors mixed through eachother. Hadd to pull the battery out as longpress startbutton was also not working anymore.

Unfortunately I'm back to stock now... can't effort it to miss phonecalls... hope that R6 will be as smooth as R5 but more stable. Will give it a try for sure ;)
