You could have just spent a couple of minutes and looked through the threads. :rolleyes:

Here a few threads regarding using RSD, two of them from just a couple days ago:

I have commented in all of them because I have used RSD in the past. But PLEASE, read/research as much as possible before attempting anything. :)

Also, "Search" does work:

I've spent days looking for an answer but always failed to find exactly what I needed. so call me dumb or a noob, but everything I found had dead links. thanks a lot for the help though
[Atrix 4G General] live4nyy:
Well, I can help you out finding things if links are broken. I was mainly commenting on the discussion of using RSD but if you are having issues with dead-end links I can look around as well. Can you be more specific in what you're needing? Did you want "Factory"-stock or stock as in just back to Blur? Have you tried a fruitcake?

[Atrix 4G General] jstrayy:
I found the 2.3.6 stock sbf, I wanted to get as stock as possible to see if it would fix whatever was wrong with it. It hasn't restarted yet, so I just have my fingers crossed :D
[Atrix 4G General] eNorby:
I did the same thing. I kept having Sleep Of Death and random reboots, so I flashed the 4.5.141 sbf. Everything was fine. If I do the unlock with pudding the SODs return. I don't like the stock ROM and Motoblur, but I can't flash anything via fastboot only after I do the unlock procedure, even if it says I'm already unlocked at the end. Any help would be appreciated.
[Atrix 4G General] jstrayy:
I unlocked on 2.3.6 with the unlock tool, and yea those sleeps of death were a pain in the a**. Seems to have gone away after flashing the sbf, one question though, can I reflash cwm through ROM manager and try to install a different ROM still (since it should still be unlocked?)

Btw I love xda and thank you guys for the help!
[Atrix 4G General] eNorby:
I tried that. It gives Failed To Boot 2 if you try to load up CWM. It still acts as if it what locked.
[Atrix 4G General] jstrayy:
You tried to flash cwm through ROM manager?
[Atrix 4G General] eNorby:
Yes. It said it flashed ok, but when trying to reboot into recovery it says Failed to boot 2, Entering RSD mode. But I went into fastboot and did fastboot reboot, so it didn't brick or anything like that.
[Atrix 4G General] jstrayy:
That's weird... when I tried to do it, I got an android with an exclamation mark but I haven't reflashed cwm yet
[Atrix 4G General] jstrayy:
When you do fastboot can you keep scrolling down to select android recovery? You have to press volume up upon seeing android recovery. Just wanna make sure, Idk your level of android savvy so don't take offense lol
[Atrix 4G General] eNorby:
Yes it's there. And I don't think I would of risked flashing sbf's and stuff if I didn't have a clue what i was doing :)

---------- Post added at 03:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:40 PM ----------

the android with the exclamation mark is the stock recovery as far as i know
[Atrix 4G General] live4nyy:
From what I have seen in the forums, when flashing the SBF you have to, at the very least, redo the fastboot commands for unlocking > "fastboot oem unlock". I have used RSD three times and I always just re-flashed pudding. Whether or not "pudding" is necessary to run the commands I have no idea. :o
[Atrix 4G General] eNorby:
without pudding it doesn't let me issue the oem unlock command (or any other fastboot command for that matter). after flashing pudding, i can do oem unlock but it says i'm already unlocked. but as i said before, flashing pudding gives me random reboots and SODs. that is my problem :confused:
[Atrix 4G General] jstrayy:
I might just be leaving the phone the way it is if I can't just flash cwm right now... my gf doesn't appreciate a half working phone with SOD
[Atrix 4G General] maheshjagadeesan:
This is exactly my problem too. I wonder if I need to try flashing a pudding.

On a related note, can someone tell me what exactly a pudding is, please?
[Atrix 4G General] jadwv2210:
"Pudding" is the name of a modded sbf file used to unlock the boot loader. You flash pudding then run some commands through fastboot to allow the installation of a custom recovery like CWM. If you have already flashed pudding once and unlocked your boot loader you don't need to flash pudding again unless you flash a stock sbf file. You should try installing romracers recovery through fastboot to see if you can boot into recovery then.
[Atrix 4G General] jstrayy:
Flashing the stock sbf file fixed the random restarts for us. So Idk if I'll run the unlock again
[Atrix 4G General] photobuddha:
Did you use the 4.5.91 option to unlock 4.5.141. I download the auto unlock software and it was version 4.2. I run the main.bat it only gives me the option of unlocking version 4.5.91 Android OS 2.3.4 not 4.5.191 Android OS 2.3.6. If this was how you unlocked your bootloader for 4.5.191 Android OS 2.3.6 please let me know. Thank you.

Thank You.

How would we know, the new leak was just released 4/1/12. Try it out and find out for yourself. They all have bugs, nothing most xda-ers would consider deal breaker.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] chasmodo:

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Rigby2011:
Stunner, stunner period!!!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] DaanJordaan:
It depends. Would you like a complete stock Android experience, or would you like Samsungs S-Pen apps and features?

For the first one Imilka's is great. ICS Stunner, stock android, with lots of tweaks and options, is also a good choice.

If you would like the second, Midnote 3.0 is pretty good.

I'd recommend trying at least those three roms out.

It is difficult for people to recommend roms because of each user specific needs and requirements.

You will have to test them out yourself.

I'm on Midnote 3.0 at the moment and it's pretty good for normal use in my opinion.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Lance Uppercut:
Midnote because it's the only one that's given me fully functional Flash.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] mauaus:
I'm having trouble with flash on stunner I really hope they fix it soon... problem is no one on the thread seems to care...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Mystic38:
given that you currently use the stock ROM, then i suggest the answer is likely "none" and you wait for Samsung to release ICS for the note...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Lance Uppercut:
The weird thing is that Youtube works but nothing else does. Stunner has the best look and feel but having Netflix is too important.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] mputaturo:
Ics stunner

I used most of ICS builds, but the best at moment is ICS Stunner 4.3. Fast and stable.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Q2V:
I installed every new ROM, realy Stunner is best one
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] rockky:
to me....pure ASOP= pure boring.

Oh, yeah....Stunner 4Shr.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] omigosh:
I tried ICS for the past couple of days, was using Stunner and Imilka's. I used Midnote 3.0 for 5minutes, realised my modem was not working and switched roms (lazy to fix hehe :p .. All ROMs were speedy, especially setting the UI options to 0.5x performance (not sure what is the exact name of the settings, all i know is that its in developer settings). I can't comment much about the 0.2GHz increase, but it didn't really bother me when i was on LP1.

Between Imilka (was using v7), Midnote 3.0 and Stunner (4.3, latest LP5), Stunner suited me the most because there were less bugs, the ability to change from phone to tablet with more convenience. Mainly Stability/functionality/convenience (eg toggles) issues. Battery life on ICS was not bad, draining 1% for every 1.5 hrs of deep sleep in 2G+Data. However running apps caused my note to be warmer and drain was higher compared to GB.

However Rocketrom v23 + Franco Test kernel still pulled me back to GB today with S-pen full functionality + stock photo editor/ on the fly editing for screenshot. Stability and awesome battery life contributed much as well. :D
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] ajamils:
After trying all the major ICS roms... I have to agree to this as well. Neo does excellent job.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] gramessh:
I have tried using several ICS ROMs over the past few weeks.

But, the last 4-5 days have been brilliant - with the videocam getting fixed, ability to mount exernal sd and several other bugs fixed.

Having tried MIDNOTE 3.0, imilka AOSP, ICS Stunner, Livewings's MIUI Revolution and pvillasuso's MIUI, I must say that the ICS Stunner is the best one out there. I have have no SODs or FCs until now ever since I updated to v4.3 yesterday.

I was initially wanted to settle with the Livewings MIUI but despite implementing the ICS Stunner base, there was still lags at several parts of the UI, especially when I tried scrolling through the homescreen panes (I have a lot of apps!).

The best part of Stunner is Euphoria Control. It makes so many things so darn easy. Now with the new LP5 kernel and 1.4GHz clock rate, it is amazingly fast. I have seriously not seen my note be this fast before.

If you are a weirdo and are addicted to Touchwiz, I think there's a ROM for that too which is fully functional.

If you ask me though, ICS STUNNER \m/

I would agree, if only it had toggles on the notification tray (which I hear is coming soon).

But for now, I'm using ICS Stunner 4.3. Haven't had any issues with it.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] graemeg:
None of them.

Until the lads get hold of official ICS for the N7000 i wouldnt expect custom ics to be perfect, its going to have faults, especially the Kernel side, what ya get is what ya get, good roms, but not stable enough for me to consider.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] mnaveen38:

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] shinizaki:
+1 on stunner, only one problem with palm rejection that make this ROM little less than perfect. Hope neo will fix it soon
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] smalmagal:
There are absolute ZERO bugs for my everyday use with ICS Stunner...unless I'm missing any, it's flawless, and this is with a leaked kernel...now 1.4Ghz.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Vulpix:
I miss the S Note app though. :(
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] smalmagal:
S-Pen apps will never work with AOSP. It's a small price to pay for me. I can't stand Touchwiz. It's honestly hideous and embarrassing. I never use the pen anyway.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] dude_uuk:
Any polling made for the number of users per rom and their ratings for the rom they use...that would give us some insights which rom has the highest number of users and rating...:D

Hope someone can do this. I remember back during my captivate days someone did this kind of poll in the captivate threads...:D

In my opinion Albas is awesome I am testing it past 72 Hours all intact
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] SeanX:
I have tried Stunner, AlBa, Midnote, imilka's and Criskelo.

The AOSP based ones (Imilka's and Stunner) are fast but missing functionality. Things like flash, netflix, vpn are missing or not work properly.

Midnote is a pain in the arse to install and was quite buggy. Criskelo's was good but based on the old kernal.

I gave up and went back to GB until I discovered AlBa. Everything I have tried so far works so I will be using this for now.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] mumboender:
Since I can't live without Netflix its Alba's or Midnote...currently on Midnote but I keep switching to Alba's...both seem very stable...

ICS Stunner.... the man of the match!!! My lovely daily ICS rom
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] hara74:
I´m using Midnote 3.0 and its really great. :D

I use Midnote since 2.0 and also tried others like Stunner or Livewings or Imilkas,

but always went back to the Midnote.

With the new Kernel it´s really fast and smooth and there are only minor bugs still left, like a few FC here and there. :(

But I think that´s more App related then Rom. I restored most time with Titanium my Apps and Datas. I know I shouldn´t do that, but I´m to lazy to input my whole Data again :o

So I can say I stay here till ICS official comes along (hope soon :D)

so long

cheers
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] MamaSaidWhat?:
ICS Stunner Beta 4.3 allllllllll the way :D

Such a great rom! Lightning fast, buttery smooth, clean (no bloat), great battery life, no random reboots, no sleep issues, working internal/external SD mount to PC, and it doesn't have Samsung's AWFUL TouchWiz :p

Probably the only Note rom i've kept for more than a week haha.

I thought so but i cant find any issue/bug in AlBa ics rom.

Its stock, full, includuded all samsung stuff and everything is working smooth and fast.

Also battery draining is even better than any GB rom i have tried, and i have tried all.

The sounds are better, signals are more stable too.

Its for daily use for sure and this is make happy cause i think that the Note will be explosed when we will have official ics plus a custom kernel.

I guess majority of people really like stunner!

could someone point me in the right direction on how to install it? I currently running stock ROM, unrooted.

Reason I am confused a little is that at one point I was running midnote and was rooted. Not sure where to start and I can't really find any tutorials.

I'd prefer to do a complete wipe before installing.

Thanks!

I can't get flash to work on any AOSP based roms....but Imelka's new CM9 rom both netflix and flash work....I am going to give it a whirl for a while.

I hate to be the guy who says this (because no matter where you post something about Quadrant, this will always be said) but it's utter crap.

It is very easy to manipulate a number of factors to give scores of 7000+. So it doesn't matter if you get a score of 400 or 4000 because it MEANS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING.

If the rom runs well (i.e. it's smooth, stable, fast etc.) then this is all that matters. You don't need some crappy coloured graph to tell you otherwise :D

ICS Stunner is awesome in every sense and that's all that matters! Ask the 100's of people using it, and they'll tell you the same.

I'm using stunner atm. Great ROM.

But I do prefer MIDNOTE, for the s-pen functionality etc. But facebook is unusable on midnote. And that's a big dealbreaker for me. So Stunner it is. And euphoria controls are fun once you get used to them :)

The only downside with the ICS leaks is that my note seems to become a lot hotter than it did on stock GB.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Goodm7sn:
I wanted ICS, so i tried :

-Midnote 3.2

-Alba's v2

-ICS stunner 4.5

and all had a different type of bugs/missing features (no caller ID recognition , S-pen functionality ,video playback HW mode , random FC... )that were deal breakers for my daily use...

in the end , i restored my Checkrom v6 nandroid backup
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] aalupatti:
Among the ones that I tried

Imilka base - Very basic asop rom.

Imilka cyanogen - Asop with some nice features.

ICS stunner - Asop with some other nice features.

Alba's v2 - Most smoothest. All the others are smooth but this is the only one that does jerk when scrolling in most of the apps, like tapatalk, rss reader and browser

However it does not have any addons for special features which i miss badly.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Opperhoofd:
First you have to ask yourself why you want ICS. I wanted it just because it's new and it's fun to do.

After some playing I flashed CheckROM again. Current custom Gingerbread ROMs based on a stable Android are a lot better IMHO. Mods and scripts makes it a feature rich allday ROM.

I'll flash an ICS ROM when an official pre-rooted is available.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Goodm7sn:
yeah i agree..

i think waiting for the official ICS is the only choice we got for a stable ICS daily driver ROM...other than that , trying those roms is new and for fun :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] gonzaka76:

Imilka's cyanogen is 93% of a perfect ROM and 98% if it could support samsung's s memo app.
