I think a "no touch kernel" is better and safer, but in this case you need it only to do nandroid backup, so, no problems with 4.2;)

Many thanks.

Downloading now.

I will report my results.

Of course, your Midnote 1.6 is wery fast and rock stable. Used as daily rom from last week and is very very good :D

I installed over 2.1 with data & cache wipes. I re-installed all my apps via play store (not Titanium). Took longer but I believe installing from Titanium may have been why I had freezes etc in previous ICS ROMS.

I have Swype working fine too.

It seems this rom hates me as much as Midnote 2.0 did. I have the weird issue where the home button doesn't work and holding the power button down for only a second shuts down the phone instead of giving be the power menu options. And no home screen either, it just boots straight into Touchwiz. I don't want to give up on having a stock Note experience with ICS so I want to try installing the rom without using Mobile Odin. How would I go about installing the Base and the Kernel using PC Odin? I'm not concerned about the yellow triangle since once I'm in 4.0 I can just use TriangleAway. Thanks in advance for your help.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] [opensys]:
You can see my old posts, i write one to explain as you flash using the PC odin.

(need to rebuild the tar file)

You will have a yellow triangle in the end, this means that you flash the phone with a alternative rom, but is useless, all things works fine. If you want to remove it, there is a apk to remove the yellow triangle. About your strange things, i think that is hardware related my friend, but try to flash MN 2.2 and see what it happening.

The developer has already said the " android apps updating" is part of the feature. read his first post. I quote " B. fixed random reboot, but the "tradeoff" is the return of "android apps optimization" every reboot "
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] Ahmun_Ra:
As the Dev also says it must be flashed from GB and someone figured out that it can be updated from 2.1 without reverting it.

lnsted of stating the obvious should give constructive comments ;)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] [opensys]:
For those you what at 240 dpi or other dpi config, i found i way to get it working :) :)

The build.prob must have 644 permissions

So change the ro.sf.lcd_density= line then:

chmod 644 /system/build.prob

Without it the note freezes on boot.

The phone app, and the mail app, (can be others) don't work right with others dpi's that original one of 320.

About the message "andoid is updating" i know that is something with dalvik that i can solve for now.

Busybox? TUN/TAP Driver? OpenVPN on Midnote 2.2

Fist things first, a big hand for the developer. :) I enjoyed MN2.0, but suffered from numerous SOD's. Luckily these have disappeared in 2.2, so I'm really enjoying ICS on my Note. :D The only issue remaining that I've noticed is the application upgrading on every reboot, but it's a minor bug.

Now a question: how would I go about getting OpenVPN working on Midnote 2.2? I've downloaded and installed the OpenVPN Installer and OpenVPN Settings apps by Friedrich Schäuffelhut from the market, but both warn of dire consequences for those using them without root privileges and both the TUN/TAP driver and busybox installed.

Is OpenVPN possible on this ROM? If so, any suggestions on how I'd go about doing so?

Thanks in advance :)

Same for Sygic (saw that more people have this issue). The screen just goes black and after a couple of seconds it says Sygic has stopped working or something.

Has this something to do with the dpi? If so, how to change this without an app?

Although the VPN ZIP file listed in the OP doesn't include OpenVPN, it has put me on the right track to getting things working.

One problem though: installing the VPN fix has altered USB connections. Before connecting via USB to PC automatically went into MTP mode and both the internal storage and external SD card appeared under "i9220" in Windows Explorer. After I applied the VPN fix (by installing ZIP from SD card in CWM), a "USB connected: Select to copy files to/from your computer" dialogue appears in the taskbar and I can't for the life of me find out how I can re-enable MTP connections.

EDIT: Also, another program seems to have been added by the VPN fix: "Galaxy Note USB Mount (Team Passion v1.0) Can I safely remove this, or do I need it now?

Another EDIT: I also used to have the option of selecting either MTP or PTP mode for USB connections, but that option has disappeared after the VPN fix.

If you can get into recovery mode you'll be able to mount your SD card through CWM and copy the files over. ;)

Everything worked until I wanted to restore to GB stock rom in CWM. It says "MD5 mismatch!" What should I do?

edit: I already restored once to GB when I wanted to install 2.2 so it should be working!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] rosco385:
I'm pretty sure you can't downgrade to GB through CWM from Midnote. When I was going from Midnote 2.0 to 2.2 I had to downgrade to GB first. I did so by using PC Odin and a stock GB ROM found here. I read in another thread that you could just go ahead and pick any ROM there, but I chose a Hong Kong ROM (I bought my Note in mainland China) just in case.

After you flash the stock GB ROM make sure you root it first before upgrading to Midnote 2.2 (if you use and old ROM you can do it easily using the Zerg rush exploit. Info is in the same thread as the stock ROMs). :)

EDIT: Sorry, the easy root+CWM method is linked to in the stock ROMs thread, but not actually explained there. You can find it here, look at the end of the first post. Make sure you pick the right root+CWM download for the GB ROM you flash. Pick the wrong one at your peril! :P
