Well well, need to go back on a few things I said.

On GingerBread (stock), HW Decoder works without any issue on every video player (MX Player, Dice, ...) :

But, on ICS CM9, can't get it working on >720p (splitted) files. Only SW/Fast Decoder or SW, but both aren't fast enough. I removed sound & subtitles from this MKV, keeping only the video track, doesn't help. Is video resolution too high ?

I've also checked that /system/vendor/firmware/mfc_fw.bin, on GB MD5 is e7c1e88d59aff1f004a3204c035c1e27 but the one provided with CM9 starts with e970b6c... It obviously seems that they are different but swapping them doesn't help, exactly same results on ICS.

Those files are actually stated as working with HW Decoder on MX Player on ICS :

Is anyone able to play 1080p videos ? Thanks in advance.

Is there compatible CWM application availiable to use in this ROM (like was included in Rocket Rom)?

if not, is it safe to use "ROM Manager"?

Currently it says me that no CWM is installed and wants me to flash it!

You don't really need a CWM app honestly but you can use the CWM.apk that comes with chainfire's repacks if you like:

Here's my logcat.

Issue is with wifi 5ghz frequency.

Have trouble detecting and connecting to network.

When I do connect, sometimes deconnects automatically.

Device will display connected status and symbol but will still use mobile network for data (in this case, EDGE).

Previous builds had issues detecting 5ghz but were able to connect. Only with this latest build (#7), does my phone display as connected but still use mobile data network.

Thanks for this great development for our Note as i have read in many site CM9 theme reputation rocks in every news i read POSITIVE things about CM9 so users thrust u 1000% in anything you guys do.

Entropy thanks in advance and as i am new (well a few months users !!) to android world will just want to ask a few questions :

1- kernel in CM9 is made by CM9 devs ?

2- google apps ? any link for the latest GAPPs searching like crazy couldn't find

3- tablet mode works with CM builds i mean its not like other builds where they have touchwiz framewoirk and no tablet mode.

4- homescreen in landscape is it possible ??

5- camera is it taking 8MB shots ?

6- once in CM9 then backup from CWM works or not like going back to CM9 that is backed using CWM ?

7- the mount of sd-card is it emmc for external card en sdcard for internal ?

8- and are future build of CM9 are full wipe or are they only cache wipe ?

thanks if u have time u can answer to this noob or just ignore it and say what a noob !! ;)

This is a problem with Chrome, not with the ROM. You need to downgrade versions of Chrome and set it not to auto-update. Let me see if I can find the link.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] duowing:
Here's one thing I was wondering about custom roms like AOSP, CM9, AOKP, etc. The Note totes the use of the GLONASS positioning system. I don't exactly understand it, but I was curious is it just something that's built in and is used with custom roms or does it have something else related to the touchwiz framework that it requires to use those? I have noticed that when using the GPS on the Note it's much faster, more accurate, and updates so much quicker than any phone I've ever used. I was just wondering if a rom like CM9 uses this as well?

So if I am on GB LA6 rooted and flashed with mobile odin and have CF Root kernel then its safe to flash this? Also do I just need build 7 or do I need an earlier update and flash incrementally? Thanks for reading.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] :
Yes, it's safe and yes you only need to flash build 7. Just follow the instructions in the OP
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] thechints:
Assuming everything you have said and verified, yes, safe.

Power down the phone. Hold Power, Volume Up, Home button together to enter into CWM Recovery mode.

Wipe everything . Flash version 7 directly. Flash Gapps. Wipe cache, dalvik. Reboot.

Although not recommended, you can try restoring ONLY user apps + data from titanium after and only after the ROM has settled.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] vetchems:
Thank you (I hit thanks too). Im just about to backup a few things before proceeding with the flash.

Not recommended to restore from TB... ok but Contacts should be ok right? thats the main thing I need.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] :
If you have all of your contacts syncing with your google account, you don't even need to back them up. They'll sync right back as soon as you login to your google account in CM9. I wouldn't restore a TB backup of your contacts in CM9 though, the Contacts app is different in ICS and the data is probably not entirely compatible. I could be wrong, but I don't advise it.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] rlaw:
Hm. Your contacts should be tied to your Google account by default. If not, you may want to export only local data to the cloud - whether that's your Google account or some other service you'd like to use.

Restoring user apps and data with TB should be fine for most applications - you may run into trouble with some data for apps that will update to an ICS version. Also, Opera browser for example will not function from s restore - that will require a fresh install.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] vetchems:
I dont have them synced with my google account yet, I didnt like the fact that it imported all email addresses I ever mailed into my phone, I guess ill write them all down quickly and go from there.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] rlaw:
You can pull your contact data as .csv file and then re-import it after you flash.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] vetchems:
how do I do that exactly?

Also, is there a way to wipe internal sd so the phone is completely clean? Like ALL files and folders that are not required by base ICS.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] rlaw:
There are many different apps and programs you can use to do this, I'm sorry I can't provide a specific solution. Try Google.

The ICS contacts app actually has import/export in the settings. I'm not sure if your current contacts app allows the same. I would start there first.

As for your emmc partition, it's not affected by wipe. I s'pose you could manually clean it with a file explorer, though?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] thechints:
Goto Contacts, Menu button, export contacts, which in ICS, you can import. (Think it only works to export if you have an external sd card)

You could just manually delete sd card folders, but no need really at all. System files are cleaned when you wipe data anyways. What remains on the memory is pure apps' data, in addition to files you make have downloaded /saved

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Mahmood:
use odin pc its safer thats what all and everyone is saying

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] octavian90:
So I tried to full wipe and start from scratch to eliminate the lag...to no avail.

I've pinned it down a little: if I let the home screen settle and then swipe around/open app drawer, it's pretty smooth. BUT if I'm coming from any application (Tapatalk, ICS browser etc), and swipe the screen immediately/open app drawer, it's VERY choppy. If I wait about 2-3 seconds after coming from an app, it's smooth again. Happens on every launcher.

I don't remember this occurring on the ICS leak builds...can anyone shed some light on how to deal with this??

Its been said a few times but yes that's exactly what you wanna do. Flash a stock rooted GB rom via PC Odin, then the corresponding CF root kernel for that rom via mobile odin. Boot into recovery and flash cm9/gapps and all their glory :D.

Actually, Mobile Odin uses it's own kernel to flash so it should be safe to flash a kernel like AbyssNote 4.2 with MO and then use the CWM recovery from Abyss to flash CM9 and to wipe data/cache/Dalvik.

SOD's Appear Fixed

Just wanted to share my experience over the past week concerning SOD's (because I'm on CM9 I figure I'd post it here)

Ever since coming to ICS I have had to deal with fairly regular SOD's. I would say I averaged 1 per day, some days more some days none. I heard people say that radios mattered and some say they didn't, but I never really paid much mind because nobody really seemed sure of their position-with a few exceptions.

Anyways, it's been over 48 hours since I changed my radio via mobile odin from lp5 to lp6 and I have not experienced an SOD yet. I know it's not been long enough to be a definitive result, but I've gone through 4 complete charge cycles and heavy usage without an SOD and that's unusual.

Anyways, it may not be modem specific e.g. LP5 or LP6, but rather the way it's flashed e.g. CWM or Odin. I believe reb0rn was the one who espoused that view, so cheers to you for that.

IMHO, for those having SOD issues, try flashing any modem using mobile odin and see if that helps.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] manu1991:
Uh, I did that and now my phone seems to be in a bootloop. Plus I guess the kernel doesn't have CWM. Is there anyway I can flash any custom recovery via PC Odin?

I flashed DDLB2. I was on AOSP (after flashing i9220 repack and LP5 CF kernel)... is it because its a no wipe ROM?

EDIT: Solved, flashed speedMOD, booted into CWM and wiped everything and fixed permissions. Now, it works.
