[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] virgopunk:
Ooookay...I've just come from Imilka's CM9 based on the chinese leak. I read all of the info and went back to a stock GB rom, then flashed a CF root using the InitialRootFlasher then flashed CM9 nightly and my gapps (like a good boy).

Everything (so far) has worked like a charm. The whole process took me just over an hour including reinstalling all my apps. All I have to do now customise my interface to how it was before using my lovely MinimilisticText app and FolderOrganiser and I will be a very happy bunny.

Couple of thoughts; firstly I'm so pleased with the improved video playback and banding issues! That was my main reason for flashing and my vids look lovely! No more blocking, pixelated blacks! Secondly, I really can't understand why people try to find shortcuts with flashing. DO IT AS IS WRITTEN and you'll get what you want. Try and skip a 10 minute flashing sequence and you'll inevitably run into problems. If you can't follow the clear instructions laid down by those with considerably more knowledge and experience then you deserve everything you get. Doing it the right way will also teach you some very useful things about your phone and stand you in good stead the next time you want to try a major flash job.

I'll be honest though and say that I always fear the worst when I flash new roms. I'm not a regular tester but someone who'll track a particular rom until it meets my criteria. I did this with Imilka's excellent work and with the new CM9 nightlies. However, once I'm finished I'm always relieved and wonder to myself why I worried so much. I'll say it again FOLLOW THE OP INSTRUCTIONS, take your time, follow the threads and don't panic. Things that look bad at first can usually be resolved with a wipe/reset.

Finally, huge thanks to all involved in the Note's CM dev work and those who've trailblazed the earlier builds! You're all legends in my eyes. This forum has some amazing guys doing some amazing stuff.

Maybe you should try being a bit more patient rather than expecting a solution within 20 minutes?

If you've got it in a case, try taking it out.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] masiegel:
Is there a possibility to toggle sound in lockscreen? I have not found a setting for that activity. I know the setting for adding shortcuts to the lockscreen in general, but i didn't found a setting for toggling the sound just like on gingerbread
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] yasin.76:
Maybe yes. I am not the patient type. Ok i ll wait. If there is one one else with the same problem.pls advise.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] knightnz:
Nothing built-in at the moment. You can hold the power-button down on the lockscreen and use the option in the power menu though.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Entropy512:
That's what happens when you don't read the stickies in the forums or the warning about not flashing from an I9220 repack.

Nope - the eMMC is so fried they can't tell.

Best to say it died when you did a factory reset in settings with XXLPY - this is a PERFECTLY LEGITIMATE operation that can destroy your device on XXLPY.

NO!!!! ABSOLUTELY NOT!!!! GENERIC INTERNET RULE: READ ALL STICKIES IN A FORUM BEFORE POSTING IN A FORUM!!!!

You may be OK if you ONLY restore missing apps and data with TiBu - BUT do post here about issues if you've done that.

You will NEVER see this. You cannot flash ANYTHING from XXLPY without a risk of bricking, PERIOD. Don't flash, don't wipe, don't do a factory reset.

Seriously, is it THAT damn hard to Odin a safe kernel and flash?

Is there a way to disable vibration in lockscreen? I don't like it when phone vibrates when i unlock it
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] knightnz:
No.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] ChodTheWacko:
Corrected. I've several apps/widgets get all funky after restoring with TiBu.

Uninstalling them, reinstalling from play, and restoring data usually worked fine after that.

Hey Entropy

I have a more general question about the nightlies. Since they are generated by some super computer and not a better knowing human, such as yourself, is there any chance it mods the kernel into a superbricking kernel or does it not even touch that and just mods the upper layers?

As you can probably tell by my non-technical terms i.e. upper layers I am no tech guy, just a guy who doesn't want an expensive paper weight.

BTW I'm on V3 of your official CM9 with the "Thu May 3" kernel.

Thanks
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] raulfragoso:
You can just pull the notification bar (yes, that works in lockscreen) and toggle sound from there ;)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] doctorm:
Hi, can you fix the bug that when in Sound, unchecked vibrate on touch, it is still vibrate when you unlock in the lock screen.

Thank you
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] knightnz:
The kernel does get worked on as part of the overall release, so it's possible, but

extremely

unlikely. Entropy & the other people working on CM9 have a better grasp of the low-level stuff than the Samsung guys by the sound of it.

This is true of any kernel update though.

Nightlies are _not_ tested. Generally they'll work fine, sometimes some particular function might crash, the worst you might expect is a bootloop and have to revert to a previous build, but even that is very rare.

People not able to diagnose for themselves, shouldn't be touching pre-beta's and nightlies, but a sizeable portion of this thread is evidence that people who have no business messing with these things are giving it a shot.

I'm on the 15/5/12 nightly with an LP6 modem and it's rock solid, but YMMV
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] k1ng617:
Did you try Settings > security > lock screen > vibrate on touch

or

Settings > sound > vibrate on touch

Maybe try both?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Entropy512:
It's built in the exact same manner as xplodwild's builds are.

Anything we build personally is identical to what Jenkins builds, with the exception of if we have local patches that haven't been approved in Gerrit yet (whether due to not being submitted, or if we're testing someone else's work.)

So the only way "superbrick" could be introduced is if we pull in the wrong stuff from the N7000 source release when it comes out - but right now my plan is to pull in the bare minimum to fix remaining issues, and avoid anything related to MMC like the plague.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] k1ng617:
I understand that and have used CM7 nightlies for my Droid X for extended periods, because they didn't get to RC by the time I upgraded. Now however, the fact that phones are being fubar'd is quite unnerving.

The spectrum of folks on here vary wildly from, people who can't seem to read or don't care enough to, all the way up to those who are geniuses in their respective field/programming language. I may not be able to write a line of code, I'm just looking to gain some prospective about what I could be getting myself into. Flashing ROMS is IMO a huge part of what makes the Android OS great and I miss it.

Thank you, Entropy; that tells me that there is-at a bare minimum-some human supervision in at least one point of the process to help prevent dangerous code from propagating into future builds.

:D i checked the cm site and it turns there is updates there sorry for misunderstanding :(
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] SnakeManJayd:
So I gave the odin a try.

It was successful, but when it rebooted it got stuck at the boot image for ages.

I had to reboot to recovery, which was difficult with the phone trying to reboot whenever I turned it off.

But after doing a factory reset and clearing cache it booted normally.

I rooted it.

Then I tried using CWM recovery to restore the backup of CM9 v7. But then I got partial root again.

So I had to repeat the process again.

After I had root again, I flashed the nightly build and gapps, it worked fine.

I then restored my v7 backup.

That worked fine.

Then I flashed the nightly again.

And it is working well.

So the problem seems to be if you go from GB to the CM9 ROM using a backup instead of a flash from zip, you seem to get partial root.

But once in CM9 with full root, you can restore other CM9 backups and even GB backups without losing root.

Very strange.

Just thought I'd share.

By the way.

What is the best method to update the nightlies with the new versions each day?

Is it to just download, backup, flash, clear cache as we have been doing?

Or is there an easier built in way?

Sorry, I haven't used nightly's before.

Cheers

Jayd
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] knightnz:
It sounds like you're restoring a broken system straight back over the working one. You can try and reflash CM9 and then do an "advanced restore" and restore just the data partitition, but that might not be very stable.

Sounds like you need to do a full wipe, flash CM9+Gapps, and then manually reinstall things afterwards.

You can always restore back older version using through abyss kernel 4.2.

If you backup using the cm9 recovery it will goes into internal SD. After backup copy it to ext SD card folder clockworkmod/backup .

This is always what I do

To test my home dock, I reverted back to stock rom and it works fine.

However with CM9 the sound ouput is through speakers only ( Entropy is aware of this )

Again I do not use a cardock. The cardock works as per entropy512.

Has anyone found a way to direct sound to the usb output in home dock ?

Battery life is good with my experiences up to build 7... after build 7 (15/5 nightly), i havent had chance to test.. but i will probably test it over tomorrow and the day after to see how much has improved....

but needless to say, my Note was part of a batch of 9 Notes that were distributed in office for office mobile line uses... my 8 other colleagues' Note can barely last through 14 hours without a charge while my Note on CM9 makes it through about anywhere between 24-36 hours each charge with moderate usage (book reading, lots of whatsapp with gf, some calls, messing around, some surfing, smsing, facebooking)....
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] SnakeManJayd:
I'm not sure that it was a dodgy backup.

If you read the rest of my post, you'll see that I only lost root if I restored CM9 over GB.

Once I restored with odin, rooted and flashed the nightly and gapps from the zip files, I restored to build v7 (the same backup file that failed from GB) from there and it works perfectly.

Did the same standard restore that I did from GB, except from CM9 it kept root.

Anyone have a cm9 compatible stock launcher2.apk?

Because Trebuchet is jerky as hell, i pushed launcher2.apk from another ROM to the note and wow, it's as smooth as butter. Smoother than the Nexus even - The difference it makes to the overall experience is amazing (if you're content to be stuck with a 4x4 grid). Problem is that it crashes whenever a widget is put on the screen.

Everyone complains Apex but I like it and it works the best for me. I wish Apex did folders in the App drawer. If Nova would let me speed up the transitions, I would use it.

I don't know who suggested moving Apex to /system/apps first but thank you! Makes a very noticeable difference when coming back to the default home from the drawer or an app. Sometimes that screen redraw would be slow now it's just there.

I first used RomManager to flash the nightly (don't ask why, I normally never do it) which failed. When I re-flashed in CWM, the flash was successful but it resulted in partial root. Was it something to do with RomManager?

MTP not working properly with large SD Cards

Same for me, the SD Card is shown, right sizes are reported (Used/Total) on the PC but no directory listing.

I did a bit of troubleshooting: I can copy files onto the SD Card from there, and they stay visible, both to the PC and Android until I disconnect. If I reconnect afterwards, they are not visible anymore to the PC, but still on the phone.

I thought it could be an issue with large SD Cards (>= 32 Gb) and bingo, when using a 8gb, MTP is working fine.

Actually, I don't know if the issue is linked to the capacity of the cards. There could be some differences in the formatting of the 2 SD cards, I honestly don't remember when and how I formatted them for the last time.

Flashed latest nightly, everything's fine :D
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] knightnz:
Just bear in mind that this equates to flashing an unsigned kernel so anyone who doesn't already have the yellow triangle and an incremented flash counter, will afterwards.

Doing it via MobileODIN should be fine though, and given the dubious nature of these ICS kernels, it might not be a bad idea to pull the zImage and post it separately for flashing via that.

That said, everyone who's tried crossflashing via AbyssNote seems to be fine so it's a perfectly reasonable workaround for those who don't want to risk a brick by kernel flashing from ICS.

I've checked the charge rate, looks like around 1/4% per minute regardless of charging source (so 1% charge increase every 4 minutes) with wifi+3G active. I'm guessing the stepping rates just need adjustment in the kernel.

(installed running like a breeze..just flash a GB kernel abyss 3.9 worked)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] knightnz:
Given that "adb remount" doesn't work with this build, it does make it a bit trickier.

Copy it to the SD card, then use Root Explorer to mount /system as read/write, then copy/move it into /system/app, and then set the ownership & permissions to match the other apk's in that folder.

Or - enable adb root access via the Settings --> Developer Options, then;

sudo is missing too.
