Backup ICS ROM = any recovery will do, LP5 or Abyss

Restore ICS ROM = From Abyss..

So to make it easier to understand, making backups is not an issue in any kernel or recovery, but restoring is and you need Abyss kernel for that, that's it :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] cliffyboro:
Are there any other kernels for this rom?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] returnzer0:
Have you tried this yourself? I gave up on trying to use nandroid on ICS. Yes, backing up seems to be fine, but if you do manage to get it restored, it cones with a whole host of problems, like not having full root anymore. Plus, once you do that, CWMR will no longer work for installing zips, and Odin will have to be used to get it working properly again.

If you've managed to get it to work, then wonderful, perhaps I will try again. As it stands though, I've given up on that method and just use Ti Backup instead.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] saMMuel'sky:
Hi all.

I would like to ask, is that version 8 of that nice ROM, stable, not laggy etc? Because I would like to put Android 4 on my Note, but looks like I will have to wait on stock ROM for a long time, and I'm thinking if would try this one.

And for flashing, I just go through the video of how to install it, and I should succed?

Thanks all for answer! :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] hxkclan:
@saMMuel'sky

v08 is very stable for me. It fixes the sleep of dead issues and performance is top notch. Both phone and tablet mode work amazingly.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] saMMuel'sky:
Thank you very much! Will try to flash it now. :)

issue

hello,

i have a strange issue with version 7 of this rom..when i am on 3G data i do not receive any push messages from gmail stock client, facebook and whatsapp does not work at all. the Youtube app also fails. if i use wi-fi all works perfect. can anyone help me?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] lucid:
+ 1 on have you tried this yourself ?

Would rather not risk the try (hence the question to start with)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] ssss69:
I have the same problem as you
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] matius44:
Of course I did it myself, I would not answer the question if I did not test it myself ;)

I jump many times between AOSP and ICS Stunner (testing mods etc) and I did not have any issues restoring ICS backups using Redpill recovery that comes with Abyss kernel v4.2 to be exact..

And to be more specific there was some framework problems with Stunner beta4.2 (solved in beta4.3) that sometimes your phone won't boot even if you do a re flash of the ROM, I had that incident twice and both times restored a backup of Stunner that was in my sd card..

EDIT: and even more details, am now running Stunner Beta 4.3 which I flashed on top of a restored Beta 4.2 backup (so installing zips from CWMR is working) and running bug-free so far :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] saMMuel'sky:
Just one more question. Do I need those files to download:

v08 additional files:

Tablet mode enable - http://download.imilka.eu/aospgn/tabletenable.zip

Tablet mode disable - http://download.imilka.eu/aospgn/tabletdisable.zip

Tablet mode phone FC fix - http://download.imilka.eu/aospgn/tbl_phonefc.zip

I just want normaln ICS on the phone like Galaxy Nexus has it. No tablet mode like I saw on the video for install.

Thanks!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] emoriatov:
No.these files are needed for tablet mode

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] rbacosta:
Does this mean I'm better off flashing abyss as my kernel so that I can restore nandroid backups of ics on my SD card? I'm still on cf kernel as of the moment and I would also want to have similar flexibility in flashing between stunner and aosp like you. Tia. Much appreciated. Cheers!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] battletank:
No!

Abyss is only of use when moving between backups. V8 will only work with the included ICS kernel.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] poope:
So is there a solution for the not always being able to play music on ext sd?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] lucid:
So to sum things up :

You can make a backup of ICS ROM - Flash Abyss,RebootRecovery,Nandroid,Reboot recovery, Flash ICS Kernel. Backup done, back to running ICS rom.

You can restore an ICS ROM from GB, Reboot Recovery,Flash Abyss,Reboot Recovery, Restore ICS ROM.

You can restore an ICS ROM from ICS, Reboot Recovery,Flash Abyss,Reboot Recovery, Restore ICS ROM.

You can revert to GB : Reboot recovery, Flash Abyss,RebootRecovery,Restore nandroid from GB.

So as long as you keep abyss as the tool to create and restore the nandroids, and don't forget to flashback an ICS kernel when you want to restore ICS, then you should be fine.

Great. Will now try this myself, as I want to go back to my fully configured Gingerbread, and restore Imilka's ROM later on, when it's updated.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] StrangeSavage:
guys, i happen to have another problem apart from barometer with this wonderful ROM :(

it's the one explained in the OP (SMS message not sent), but the solution suggested in http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=23339241&postcount=2403 simply doesn't work : the radio reboots (i have lost signal symbol in status bar and the signal comes back only after 10-15 seconds after that) and in the field for SMSC i have "update error" instead of correctly entered SMSC number (or 00 which is normally reported when i hit "refresh" button).

i guess something is seriously screwed up with my Note's radio.. i tried to change to LP5 from LP1 where i first noticed the problem, so now i'm on LP5, but the same error still persists. can someone give me some advice about what to do and where to look ? because i seem to have no idea :(

thanks in advance !
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] eug3n91:
Sorry for the dumb questions!

Hi guys!

I'm going to flash my first ICS Rom (currently on GB, DarkyROM v3.3 with franco Kernel):D I'd just like to get a few things straight before going ahead with this:

- Imilka's v8 is said in the Changelog to be "adapted for LP5 kernel". Does this mean I have to flash the LP5, or still just Chainfire LP1 Repack (dumb question, but wanna be sure)?

- When flashing the repack, I heard some users say that they recommend PC Odin as opposed to Mobile Odin. True or not...? And if I'll use PC Odin, I'll just be placing the .tar file in the PDA section, right? :D:D

Thanks a lot to anyone taking the time to answer. This isn't lack of research or lazyness, this is just double checking everything:D
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] poope:
You can flash the tar with pc odin and then v8.zip in recovery. You'll get this new kernel too.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] returnzer0:
Hrmm I will have to give this another try then. I used Abyss 3.9 and it gave me root problems when I tried to restore ICS backups. Maybe 4.2 will work for me as it has for you. Thanks for clearing that up.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] skillz9669:
Ok so I decided I wanted the on screen buttons ( i think they look sharp ), I downloaded the soft button.zip and when it starts up it shows that android upgrading box but it only says OK in the dark blue bar and report underneath, then it reboots and the screen just randomly flashed on and off, weird. So I went ahead and deleted the .com/android.secure folder from external sd, still get same issue. Anyone know why this doesn't work, or what is causing the actual problem? Im on V08 btw.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] eug3n91:
I don't wanna bug people, but does anyone have a faster mirror to Chainfire's ICS Repack? I can't get any of them to download faster than 7 hours...:(
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] DJsCrIBbLe:
Having issues with lp5 it seems not as stable as lp1 long term use. Out the gate it was fine. Woke up and my phone shut off or a SOD OCCURED. Just went to call someone and it was off again .. I'm still using la4 which i figured is why I hadn't had sod yet maybe it time to try a different modem?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] npras42:
Excellent ROM on the whole after 3 days use. A few thoughts (not really sure they are bugs):

1) My official Samsung Car Dock does not appear to be compatible with this ROM. It doesnt output the sound through the dock and to my car stereo and the option is not available in the options to make it function - this is unfortunately a show stopper for me but probably not a big deal for most. I suppose if this is not possible on AOSP I will have to stick to TW which is.... disappointing.

2) GPS performance is very poor. It takes a lot longer to lock on and I dont get a very good lock i.e. its very imprecise. I use Sygic for in-car GPS on a daily basis and its just not as good as it was on my GB TW build but manageable.

3) Screen on time is not very good. I have hardly no battery drain in standby, but very minimal use of the phone can cause massive drops. On my last full battery drain I only got about 2h10mins of screen on time. I was getting closer to 4 hours on the LC1 TouchWiz GB build.

Otherwise I find the ROM excellent. It is very stable. Very fast. Has all the fancy new features of ICS. I have a feeling AOSP will not work out for me long-term. I may have to stick to a TW build with NovaLauncher.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] Leiborator:

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] matius44:
Good luck :)

Your problem does not have anything with radio, try the tool in this post, seems working..

I don't think soft buttons are updated with v08 yet, you'll need to wait for someone to update it unfortunately..

If I remember correctly someone posted a fast link in ICS Stunner thread but can't get the link right now sorry, but try to search there..

I have one problem with flashing that Chainfire ICS repack. In the video he is showing that he flash it with odin on computer, but when I click PDA in odin and then choose that I9220LP1-N7000-ICS-REPACK.tar file and click start, it nothing happens. What can I do.

Sorry for so many questions any annoying... :o
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] Krshaw18:
Quick question from a new user. Is there a way to "stretch" the tablet mode screen to make it use more screen real estate? I see pictures of people's phones with tablet mode enabled and it covers their whole screen, while mine is centered and sort of small, only fitting like 9apps per page.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] mfractal:
you should be able to enter recovery and download.

Did you try Vol Up + Home + PWR ?

I can't see how build.prop editing would cause all that, the worst that can happen is a bootloop.

BTW, i did the same and running @ 240DPI w/o issues.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] Krshaw18:
Do I have to change dpi settings? If so how? Or is it in the phone settings?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] matius44:
Are you sure your phone is id Download mode?

If not turn off your phone, pres Volume Down + Home Button + Power Button, the press volume up I think (it tells you on the screen) and then you're in download mode and try again

No you just need to use a 3rd party launcher, may I recommend Apex? It's free and have tons of options..just set the grid size to whatever you like (I prefer 7*7 in tablet mode) :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] saMMuel'sky:
Yes, I was in Download mode 1000%.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] matius44:
If you're running AOSP v08 then you already have that kernel, if not hen search this thread but do not download the whole repack, only kernel..
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] hanifh:
yes tried and neither mode engaged.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] matius44:
Then try another cable, do you see the first slot in Odin in yellow? It should be yellow if it recognized your phone..
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] saMMuel'sky:
Ohh, no it wasn't. But it works once before when I rooted and flashed another ROM on it with my friend. With the same cable. And also today I put aospn08.zip on SD card with that cable. That's weird. :/
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] matius44:
There is no way that build.prop editing would cause you to not enter recovery or download mode..

Try again, press volume down + home + power button and do not let go even if the "Samsung Galaxy Note" screen appeared, just keep pressing and you will end up in recovery..

That's weird.. well try rebooting your laptop, other than that I've ran out of ideas :(
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] saMMuel'sky:
Now it is flashing. I just go in Download mode, and after come in download mode I plugged USB cable in Note, and then there was yellow square. :) And now it is working.

Thanks for help! :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] StrangeSavage:
omg you're my HERO. it works, and after reboot too. thank you million times ! :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] hanifh:

I have been flashing ROMS for years and have never experienced this. right now have plugged it into power in case the battery is low but it is stuck with a blank battery icon with a circle (non animated) on it. no charging sign etc. its dead as a dodo. only other thing I can do is perhaps get a new battery and try it tomorrow.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] saMMuel'sky:

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] Rigby2011:
No but if he forget to set permissions after editing because after editing a build prop sometimes the permissions is wrong. If you reboot your pbone gets stuck on boot lovo.

Is joke, there is no other kernel for this, you can use lp1 kernel but that will not be wish because you lose camera funtion.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] dbjc:
I've had exactly the same charging problem when phone is off. No animation. Just a blank battery. And I was unable to flash anything. CWM was unusable anymore.

This happened to me BECAUSE I tried to restore AOSPv05 when on AOSPv06 using CWM v5.0. Thought phone was bricked. Could no more boot my N7000. Could no more use recovery.

Then, I downloaded one ORIGINAL OFFICIAL STOCK ROM from here (PC Odin Only ROMs) to see what should happen. And it did work; PC Odin and one True Stock ROM brought my Note back to life!

Here's what I did:

- I removed battery for 1 minute

- I put battery back in place without touching any hard button

- I then pressed and hold VOL DOWN btn + CENTER HOME btn + POWER btn

- I kept holding these hard buttons until the WARNING Message appeared on the screen

- I then released all 3 hard buttons

- At that moment, I sat down and followed step by step what dr.ketan said in this thread.

On first boot after that, there were some apps and TouchWIZ FCs, but nothing after the second boot. I had my N7000 again. I followed OP here and successfully reinstall AOSP but v08/Tablet UI this time. It does work fine.

Battery still displays nothing when phone is off and charging. I don't know how to bring charging animation back when phone is off. I think the software responsible for displaying the animation crashes when it starts. 'Cause battery charging is ok even though no animation displayed. You may let it in this state for hours and you'll see your battery fully charged when phone has started.

You'll have to remove the battery and put it back in place before booting if phone were off when charging.

EDIT: Glad to hear that you've fixed it!

one question, maybe a bit offtopic:

is there any difference if i flash a nandroid of the chainfire ics repack or the rom itself with odin? i wonder, why no one has provided such a nandroid backup of the repack. whould be much easier than using odin. just my 2 cents...

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] returnzer0:
You can use No-Frills CPU Control from the market to set your desired governor on reboot. It seems to be the way the stock LP5 kernel boots up.

Thank you for searching first. I have not has this problem personally on any of imilka's builds, but it seems to be something people report with the gallery in general, regardless of the ROM. I can't say whether or not the zip is safe, but it seems harmless enough. I imagine you could clear the databases with Titanium Backup though.

Your questions have been discussed extensively, even in the past few pages. Yes, you can flash back to GB using Odin or Abyss kernel. Notification toggles are not a part of AOSP, and thus not a part of this ROM.
