Yes.

I can't speak for everyone, but I haven't had any issues at all concerning the SPen. I haven't had anyone else comment about it. That I can remember. The white dot that you are referring to is probably the Hovering pen icon. I have never used it so I don't know exactly what it would look like.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Cab121:
Ok im not one to jump in and start making requests without eliminating all possible options. This can ether be taken as a request or a question with a need for help lol .

This rom is my absolute standard to gauge any other roms I try. Its been my daily driver and my show off (Waves phone around Ooohh ahhhh). So I decided to get a 64g 1U micro SD having done a less then thorough search on direct compatibility. The result has been me pulling my hear out to squeeze what I want from my phone and SD card. Lots of sniffing around and tinkering turned up plenty of discussion on SD cards larger than 32g. I even made a [Q] request in the Q and A section. I shortly realized I need to fly to the source for this cause even if I got an answer. I would need to mod the rom to achieve it. Here is the short version

Yes 64g micro is is compatible if you manage to format it to Fat32

Pro: It works. The phone can see it and treats it like any other micro SD.

Con: 4g file size limit. So large backups or big movies is a no go.Its also very unstable as there have been many reports or random data loss. Its also much slower in this format.

NTFS

Pro: Much larger file limit. High enough it shouldn't matter much. Its slightly faster in performance. Its widely recognized by many devices save ours.

Cons: Not recognized by the note without an app from the market (There are 3 I have successfully used) or a custom script. Doesn't really take advantage of fast micro SD cards.

exFat

Pro: Even larger file limit. Maximum read wright speed while windows compatible. Very stable.

Cons: Not recognized by the note. No app available. No script available.

Here is the big question. I ask with the up most respect to the OP and any Dev, modder, theamer, tester, newbie, or whomever else that has ever helped, aided, or assisted the progress of BlackStar. Now that my lips are properly chapped its time for the questions.

How hard would it be if even possible to port the SGSIII's native exFat module to the Note?

Of not can a simple mod be made to the Kernel to achieve this?

Can this sort of thing be integrated in to BlackStar?

If non of the above are doable can a script be made post boot for exFat?

If exFat is a no go then how about NTFS?

Can the NTFS mod in this post help to achieve this? Credit to Shardul_Seth who also made a very nice NTFS app.

If not integrated then is it possible to have a downloadable add on much like the adds we have in the OTA now?

Really just tossing ideas.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] simon2k10:
Do we need to install tablet mode from the Ota in order to enable it ?

Also I would like to mention that the blackstar ix is much much faster then the previous version. The experience is much more smoother. Almost like jelly bean:D

Also since the last update I lost the ability to run ussd codes on the dialer like *#2263# to force lte. Any ideas ?

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] bigfau:
Normal or Tablet mode? Do you have Flash Player installed ? I imagine you do. And you tried Chrome also?

No you dont have to install Tablet Mode from the OTA. Just enable the 213dpi through Flappjaxxx tools in Settings. Then reboot. I have not touched the dialer or contacts or the serviceModeApp. So I see no reason for it not to work. Unless you are on the AOSP theme that dialer was from the N7000 Note.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] geeksquadryder:
I selected 213 dpi tablet mode and it screwed my phone up. I couldn't get back to settings to change it back. Kept getting a touckwiz failed error. What's the proper launcher to use to get your phone to switch to tablet mode. I ended having to reflash the rom again

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] sgndroid1:
I believe, exfat is not compatible with twrp recovery, and maybe CWM, therefore, if you can't make backups or restores, then exfat is useless for us.

When I checked in Quick System Info Pro app, it shows this rom is only using one core. Is the other core disabled or is there some setting to turn it on. Also, has anybody been able to connect with Kies with this rom using usb chord?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] daswahnsinn:
Sorry, I'm new to this phone and ROM, I bought it with this ROM on it, and was wondering about the 4G? I was in a 4G area and wasn't picking it up, I was still on EDGE. I'm running the latest BlackStar lx, baseband i717uclf6 with a T-mo sim. Any help would be great. I read somewhere on xda, one of the SGN1 forums, that there is a *# code that had something to do with radios I think.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] andROIDS:
You probably need to flash a t-mo radio.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ChronoReverse:
I confirm this on a clean install of IX. The second core definitely is available for a while but after it goes offline, it stays offline instead of spooling up under load.

[edit]Looks like if I don't use System Tuner to overclock then both cores are active. Will test now if using SetCPU has the same effect...

Looks like SetCPU is fine. Weird.

Sent from my Galaxy Note!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Wizkid:
So what do I do to turn on the second core? Will flashing new kernel fix it....In OTA there is 'hotcakez kernel v1.2 TouchWiz version'. Do you think flashing this will help?

Also, anybody manage to connect to Kies on this rom via usb.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ChronoReverse:
Are you overclocking using the included System Tuner? Turn off the "on boot" CPU settings so that you're not overclocking (do a reboot) and check again if the second core comes online.

One way to check is to use RGBenchMM from the Play Store (run it with 2 threads). The score should be over 1000 on our phones with 2 threads. If your score is 700 or lower than it's running on a single core.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] bigfau:
It already has v1.2 h0tcakez Kernel. Use SetCPU. Yes I connect to Kies fine.

But is pad.prop working or im doing something wrong?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] bigfau:
It works. You would have to mod the phone.apk to have multi dpi. That's why there is a different phone.apk in the Tablet mode packs.

Here are some Hybrid instructions with the new pad.prop:

I have found it easier to run tablet UI and push apps to higher than 213 to make them look like normal phone apps and keep whatever works tablet mode untouched. You also have the option to use Phone UI and force apps the apps that have a tablet UI into DPI 213 and under.

The build.prop and pad.prop work as a team.*

The line in build.prop:

# for 480x800 panel

ro.sf.lcd_density=

decides if your phone is going to be base tablet or base phone.

-if you put 213 or lower it will be base tablet with the fancy buttons at the bottom of the screen and the pop notification from the lower right.

-if you put 214 or higher it will be base phone with the normal phone look

if you want tablet UI with forcing phone into apps that do not have a tablet UI or look weird in tablethow i do it)

build.prop line should be 213

pad.prop:

pa.system_default_dpi=213

pa.user_default_dpi=(whatever you want, just remember the bigger you go, the harder it is to see text on tablet UI apps)

If you want Phone UI with forcing apps with tablet UI into tablet mode

build.prop line should be 214 or higher

pad.prop:

pa.system_default_dpi=213(this make the status bar and fonts really small)

pa.user_default_dpi=(again, whatever you want, but the bigger you go the harder it is to see text in tablet UI apps)

AND AND AND AND AND

you have to put the apps that have tablet UI into /system/app folder
