Big Fau:

I've been running "Saurom" from dagr8 ever since it dropped, finally upgraded to ics 3 days ago and of course after doing all my homework (I'm a cautious flasher and Saurom was basically perfect for my needs with the back button kill process, and the call recorder built into the dialer screen, among a hundred other great things mainly stability cuz I unfortunately have to use my phone like a phone for work) I of course chose to flash Black Star: It is pure POETRY! I love everything about it, the theming, options, BATTERY LIFE (I CAN ACTUALLY USE MY PHONE NOW! HALLELUJAH!), AND most of all the stability and rock solid developer behind the Rom. You are most certainly a developer Sir! Also this thread out of all the other threads on XDA re the galaxy Note are so BRUTAL! People are so rude and cut throat to each other, its really sad and discouraging. But this thread gives me hope and the people are so continually supportive I just can't say enough about this Rom and thread (as you can tell by my rambling!) My one Tiny little request ( I mean NO DISRESPECT) would be the call recorder function built into the next iteration of the Rom, I personally use it for work daily as I take conference calls with other managers in My district and instead of stressing over taking notes I just record each conversation and go over it on my own time and get the key points. Also maybe the kill process back button option? I know that's not really an original idea these days but I'm a memory checking junkie, so that feature helps my keep my OCD in check! Haha

My lord I have rambled but please forgive me as its my first post to praise you and tell you I made the plunge into ICS after months all because of you good sir. I now promise not to post for a week to make up for this atrocity of a post. Thank you

Thanks bigfau for the update revert! You think its possible for me to extract the aroma and pull out the volume wake so I can flash?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] bigfau:
You don't have to flash the Volume wake. Copy it to the framework folder and give correct permissions and then reboot.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] tolli84:
Dumb question but .....copy the .jay inside the volume wake to system/framework or inside the black star rom?

You the man big

Black Star VI Very smooth and fast

Hey Big I really like your Black Star VI Rom. It is smooth and fast and the icons and look are very nice. I really appreciate your hard work and time you put into your Rom's so we can make are Note's a lot more functional and enjoyable. Thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] bigfau:
Place inside your System/framework not the Rom zip.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] tolli84:
Thanks man. That's what I figures since it was already flashed. I'll place the .jar into the framework and reboot
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] johnnywhojr:
New to this rom! Have read every page leading up to vi. Dl'ing now. I've tried everything out there but this one. Looking forward to it. Question is, I keep reading about aroma and non aroma. I may have missed an answer somewhere in the gazillion pages. But what's the difference between the 2 and is there an aroma vi coming?

Thanks in advance! Will repost my feedback once installed and running!

Thanks again!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] tolli84:
Aroma is an installer which let's u pick and choose what u install compared to the non aroma which installs what bugfau wanted
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] johnnywhojr:
Awesome-R! Thanks for the quick reply!

5% dl'ing left...looking forward to install!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] tolli84:
No problem and yes big said aroma will be updated

Aroma or VI? If aroma and u want to choose what u install then click custom.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] johnnywhojr:
Just installed your latest rom. Only issue is I live in canada and use Bell Mobility. SO, what CSC code woud I use to update this?

just VI. Only issue so far is CSC code. I live in Canada and would like to know what CSC code for Bell Mobility
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] tolli84:
Hey bigfau, when copying to framework it says there is already a android.policy.jar and asks to replace it. Do I just replace with the volume wake jar? Sorry again I just don't wanna F it up

---------- Post added at 10:30 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:29 AM ----------

I tried to research it for u but idk all your phone info. Do a Google search or in the note forums and see if u can find the csc for your carrier
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] bigfau:
Honestly I don't think you should have to worry about it. Idk for sure though. Google is your friend.

Yes, just replace it. Then reboot.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] tolli84:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] recepo1:
I reverted to classic ehhhh the blackstar theme is way better too bad the site is down to flash back to ur icons
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] tolli84:
I have the stock icons but the black star theme is still intact. Only the icons are back to normal.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Sheon849:
i love this new update and the theme kicks ass i love it

Hey I don't drinky the "BEER" either Fau! Never been a fan. Period. Not even when all the cool kids were doing it in high school. Just One more thing I can relate to you with and admire. Then there's BigJoe your amazing right hand man, who rocks the Joker Sig, and references Batman (My daughters and I all time fav Hero/Comic/Movie(s)/Icon/Mentor/........The list goes on and gets kinda nerdy and pathetic honestly!) So Man I knew there was a reason I was drawn to and flashed your Rom after being outta control obsessively-A-Flash-A-Day-Happy with my Dell Streak, Motorola Atrix, Skyrocket, and Xoom Tablet, only to get my Amazing Giant Phablet Note....and flash one little Rom total and stick with it from the day they were released in stores, till a couple days ago when I plunged into Black Star ICS. Again I say- BRAVO MR.FAU!

New APN

I have tried for v5 and v6 of this ROM. I am using a new ATT iPad LTE SIM and need to add the "broadband" APN. I cannot get the ROM to save any new APN, and cannot delete the default APN. I have tried all I can think of, and nothing works. I had it working just find under SauROM, but this is the first ICS ROM I have tried. What can I do to fix this? Is there anyone here using a data-only SIM with this ROM?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] tolli84:
Never mind big I figured it out. I just took the policy.jar from the VI zip and replaced it in my framework and all good to go.

Alright Big, I wanted that volume wake so bad but not as bad as wanting my battery to last! Can I just straight up delete the Android.policy.jar in framework or do I need to replace it? Hopefully just delete cause I don't have anything to replace it with other wise haha
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] bluespire:
I figured this part out. I had to find it in another thread talking about a stock ATT ROM.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jayRokk:
Still the SMOOTHEST ics rom out that ive ran

i cant wait to see what youll do to official jb if it lands on the note

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] bigfau:
You have to replace it. If not you will end up in FC City.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] bigfau:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] tolli84:
Yeah big I edited my post and said I got it. I just went into the VI zip and pulled the one u had there and placed it in my framework and all is good now. Thanks brother
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] armyboy11b:
Wahhhhh still on this rom..I haven't flashed anything else since lol...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] oikhlail11:
Bigfau, I have a request lol I love your stock ROM and this ROM a whole bunch big kuddos for your contribution of your time to the community. I noticed that your stock ROM allows syncing of contacts thru my blutooth capable radio in my car I believe it even enables a toast on my screen whenever I receive a message. I was wondering if there is any way you can add that to your dark star ROM? I greatly appreciate it man keep up the good work mang you get my thanks all day
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] sizemore2000:
I was also flashing way too much, but I have finally settled down. Still loving this rom. I still take a peek at jb threads, and they are coming along nicely, but none of them are as buttery as this one. Not sure they ever will be without an official release, and that prolly won't happen. The only flashing I do now is Big's updates to this rom.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Clark Joseph Kent:
Edit...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] brittoking:
Anyone else have problems when "typing" a message with your voice with Swype enabled? Mine says working but the arrows that show it working don't spin and then it says "Swype has stopped working" and freezes. I have to kill the messaging app to get the keyboard to pop back up (that part is intermittent sometimes it freezes but will still let me type manually). Thanks for any help!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] janisarian:
GPS is not working at all.

I've installed BS V (Aroma), it's a great rom and I'm very happy with it. But I'm having problems with GPS as it can't get a gps fix at all (I live in Turkey). Can someone help me with this. Is there a way to access the gps settings?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] bigfau:
First off did you use the Aroma Installer to flash BlackSTAR or did you flash the normal way? It may have something to do with S-voice being installed rather than the stock Voice app. Im not sure.I will look in to it. Sorry about the inconvenience .

Long press the GPS icon on the Lidroid toggles it will take you to the Settings. Make sure all boxes are ticked. Try to acquire a lock again. If that does not work we will have to check other methods. Did your GPS work on previous rom?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] bigfau:
What's this all about? Lol
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] janisarian:
It still doesn't work. My previous rom was UCLE2 based by Flappjaxxx. It also didn't work straight off but it had a separate menu for GPS fixes. I had used the worldwide fix and it started working. the AT&T fix didn't work.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] bigfau:
OK, I figured out the problem with Swype. Its Swype itself. Uninstall it and go here:

http://beta.swype.com/

Sign up and download the Swype Installer. Install Swype and your good to go. There will not be a MIC icon it will be what looks like a flame.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] caaznkid:
Can somebody help me out? I was on this ROM super happy and dandy and then I woke up one night and the phone wouldn't detect my sim (I'm on T-mobile btw). So I wiped everything and reflashed the ROM, let it boot and stuff, then flashed the ICS Blaze modem which I was using before, but now my speeds are super duper slow like <100kbps. I was 6-8mbps before. Checked my APN settings and stuff and everything seems good. If anyone could point me in the right direction I would sincerely appreciate it. Thanks a lot.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] rangercaptain:
Just let it settle in for at least a few hours. If it worked "dandy" before, it will again. Sometimes the network you're on has issues, and there's weather, etc.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] tolli84:
I know for some strange reason every time I flash the black star I lose completely service after a day of use for some reason unknown but all I do is go into my mobile network settings and click the att. No clue why but it unchecks it after a day but after I set it back its good and stays that way.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Clark Joseph Kent:
sounds right

Really, as many times I have flashed even the test builds of BStar, this doesn't happen to me, wondering....

and even on other ROMs no issues, maybe because i have sh!tty service all the time, my area ATT just got 3G about a year ago...but I have connection LOL,

It doesn't work on BlackSTAR?

unfortunately no, the address book shows up blank when i sync it to the radio :(
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] tolli84:
Haha yeah I'm not sure either. Its not a big deal to me and I'm not complaining. I just check it and take off and everything is good till I flash a new update. Just now 3G? Holy shnikey! I've been on lte for a while now

O sure rub it in....shoot half time i bounce of the dang Mex towers for connection...LOL

Let it settle in the whole night and still the same issue...where should I go from here? Odin back to stock?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] bigfau:
That's strange never had that happen before. Interesting. Have you tried flashing another modem?

I wonder why not? What was the last rom you tried that it worked?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] tolli84:
Na, I'm just going with what u gave me big. Its no big deal to me at all. Its just one little click for me and I'm good. No complaints.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] oikhlail11:
Ill try a re flash today man and post back on it but i think i came from stock not too sure but ill fill you in on it asap

My guess 90 percent u!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] skippyg:
I've experienced a bit of a strange thing, I flashed revert back to stock icons and I lost Svoice? Tried installing via apk inside rom package but it wont complete. Any insight? I wiped device before flashing to ensure a clean slate.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Clark Joseph Kent:
huh it's you....bro VI tons better....LOL, and why would think that, any issues? Did you dirty flash....naughty if you did LOL, ensure you wipe North to South, East to West...then do it again, the extra theming that Bigfau and Yorzua put into this, it is awesome, IMHO:D

LOL
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] rdannar:
Tried your Rom and others until i cook up my own... Gps didn't work for me either... tried your fix... It gave me a lock in ca and i live in nh.... Other than that good work...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] andROIDS:
To his defense, it is Black Star, so no matter what one you pick its gonna be bad ass. But yeah, VI is better because of the theming touches added to it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] bigfau:

Looking Forward To It

Just got the Note today. Coming from Infuse with Aeon 1.3.1 (which totally rocks).

Out of the gate I did the fat nasty on it, but the ROM I chose won't wifi tether (bummers). Now yer ROM's getting loaded. Sweet! I just read all 23 pages and don't see anyone complaining about FCs, bluetooth or tethering issues (or any issues at all really). Stock is a pretty clunky, and the ROM I tried first wasn't much better. Based on the comments here, I'm looking forward to trying Black*STAR.

EDIT: A little trouble here too.. I guess the tether check bypass hasn't been (or maybe won't be) addressed. It's been so great having a ROM that bypassed that check. Too bad because if I purchase their tethering account, then I lose my grandfathered unlimited data plan... I'm so sad.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] bigfau:
?

I'm updating it. I just was updating AEON for the Infuse the past week or two. No back to business here. Trying to find the location if some images.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] BlownFuze:
Love that analogy, considering the note is a beast. Lol
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] TheDeveron:
Starting using this ROM about a week ago and it's been running very smooth. I saw a post about flashing the update over the previous version of Black*Star and saw that I needed to "manually uninstall Quickboot," how do I go about doing that? And also even after clearing the cache and davlik I'm still having a problem with widgets disappearing after reboots, specifically the GMail widget and HD Widgets.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] nheacock:
I feel like a dorkasaurus because for the life of me I can't figure out how to get a widget on the screen! Could someone please enlighten me? There are a few I'd like to use.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] bigfau:
Its the TouchWiz Home launcher that makes the widgets dissaepear.I woul use a different launcher.

Pick which screen you wish to place you widget and press and hold screen until options pop up. Select add to screen(TouchWiz) If on a different launcher steps could be a little different.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] nheacock:
Yeah, that would be the normal way, but there is only Add to Home Screen -> Apps | Folder | Page.

It's the launcher that comes with the ROM. TouchWiz home 4.0.4.

Maybe I need to reflash or a different launcher.

Thanks for the speedy reply... you ROCK man!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] bigfau:
When it give you the optlion, choose app then scroll to the right to select Widgets.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] nheacock:
Ah, I see now. A slightly new paradigm for this launcher. I'd think I was smart enough to figure that out, but like wow. I like the widget previews. Cool.

Thanks again.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] nheacock:
SVoice or Other Voice Dialer

Is there an svoice apk or flashable zip available for this rom? I'd like to get the voice dialing capability and svoice seemed pretty cool. I'm open to suggestions for other options. I really like whatever is bing used in the Aeon rom. That one was fast and accurate.

Thanks!

Did you wipe cache and Dalvik before or after the falsh?
