Thanx for the guide... Now i can use lewa with ultra brightness...

Anyways... Anyone tried the new alfs v9 cm7 with this rom?
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] amnher:
is there any workaround for album art?
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] :
Use other music player :D
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] amnher:
but you will fix the album art missing in the future?

only bug I see now is the ff:

1. Swap menu on performance

2. FM

3. Album Art

otherwise the rom is fluid perfect and has the best UI I've ever seen without sacrificing performance.

By the way is there a way to customize the battery saver profiles?Maybe adding a new profile aside from general, alarm and long?
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] :
not sure, maybe let the lewa team fix it :D. Dont use the swap option in performance, it is useless. :D For radio, try spirit ul :)

Hi Guys,

check out my latest mod http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1775665
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Liam0102:
So there's three questions here.

1) What improvements are there in CM9 over the Samsung ICS ROM that really make it stand out and make flashing CM9 worthwhile? What happens to all my apps and are there any killer bugs?

2) How would I go about installing CM9 considering the brick problem with the Samsung ICS ROM?

EDIT:

Some extra information. My Note is an unlocked version purchased from Amazon UK and I have already rooted my device, prior to which I flashed the official ICS ROM using PC Odin.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azzledazzle:
Samsung ICS and CM9 are two completely different ROMs, CM9 is the pure android experience, No junk, No bloatware, Super fast you really should try it.

However, if you use CM9 you will lose all the S-Pen features and it will become just a normal stylus, You will also lose the S Memo app(s) but there are some alternatives. To install it, Just flash a GB rom via ODIN, Flash abyss kernel and then flash CM9 (you will need to wipe on abyss kernel)

Pretty simple really :) I have a nandroid of paranoid android and a nandroid of rocketROM, so i can simply flash GB or ICS via ODIN and restore my nandroid, So i can constantly switch between the 2 as im undecided which one i like the most :p
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Liam0102:
Losing S-Pen features isn't a big problem as long as it still works as a stylus. My biggest thing is my widgets and apps. Particularly SPlanner. Does CM9 come with a decent calander along with a widget for said calender?

For installation, do I flash the GB ROM with mobile ODIN or PC Odin? And how do I install a kernel?

Sorry I'm new to the whole custom ROM world :P
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azzledazzle:
Im not sure if the stock calendar will suit your needs but no harm in trying :) Theres a ton of calendar apps & widgets in the play store so you'll be fine.

As for installation, You can either use Mobile ODIN or PC ODIN, I always use PC ODIN cause i've always used it.

So after you have flashed GB in ODIN, Reboot the phone, Put all the stuff on the SD, then reboot in to download mode

as for kernels, Download this one https://dl.dropbox.com/u/69014495/GingerBread-speedmod-kernel-n7000-k2-12-Odin.tar

Flash it in ODIN (PDA) Then put this one on your SD card along with your CM ROM https://dl.dropbox.com/u/69014495/AbyssNotekernel42RedTouchOriginalLogo.zip and flash it in CWM recovery, reboot recovery (under advanced menu in CWM)

Now find the ROM and flash it :) Job done !
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Liam0102:
So step 1) Flash GB with Odin.

step 2) Flash new kernal

step 3)... I'm lost
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azzledazzle:
1) Flash GB

2) Flash Kernel

3) Boot into recovery

4) Flash abyss kernel ( not necessary as there is no brickbug on GB, But it states to use it on the OP of Paranoid Android (CM ROM) )

5) Reboot recovery

6) Wipe and factory reset, Wipe cache + Dalvik cache

7) Flash your CM based ROM

8) Jump for joy

9) Report back saying it worked :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kailashnj:
All your softwares which are part of Samsung rom will be lost, like S-Memo or the SNote, Splanner, TW launcher etc.

The CM9 roms have their own calendar installed and which also does the work that its supposed to do. With CM9 roms you get lot of options for modification and also as per your liking.

To install - you need to go back to GB roms first. Use the following link

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1535025

1. The above link will give you prerooted GB Rom and will also ensure your binary count does not increase. Use PC Odin to flash

2. Download your choice of CM 9 rom like the Original CM9 or Asylum or the Paranoid Android and keep it in your phone's root drive.

3. Download Abyss 4.2 kernel and flash using the Mobile Odin. Reboot to Kernel once installed.

4. Install your selected CM9 variant from your internal storage.

The above steps will help you get CM9. My favourite is Asylum and PA. Asylum for further speed enhancement over CM9 and PA for its Tablet mode.

Hope this helps.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azzledazzle:
+1 to paranoid android, The hybrid tablet/phone mode is awesome, and it looks really good on the note, Lots of customisation to change DPI too !

Thanks to kailashnj for linking a prerooted GB rom :) That should save you some time !
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Liam0102:
How do I do step 6?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azzledazzle:
Okay, Once you have flashed your kernel, It should inject root + CWM on to the phone, So boot into recovery (volume UP + home + power) then select wipe data / factory reset, After that is done, wipe cache partition, then after that, go to advanced and select clear dalvik cache.

then on to step 7
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Liam0102:
Ah ok thanks :) So flash everything with odin?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azzledazzle:
GB ROM and kernel yes. The actual cm9 ROM needs to be flashed in recovery.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Liam0102:
Ah ok :) The Abyss Kernal is with Odin as well?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azzledazzle:
no, the abyss kernel is to be flashed in recovery, Well the one i linked you to is anyway. You might not need it, as the speedmod GB kernel is just the same, The brickbug doesnt affect GB users
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Liam0102:
Ok thanks :D The GB ROM has almost finished downloading, I'll post here if I'm successful :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azzledazzle:
you WILL be successful :D
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Liam0102:
Well the rooted GB ROM linked, according to Odin, is invalid. So now I'm going to have to download another one.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azzledazzle:
The one i used is just uploading to dropbox, Il give you the link when its done if you want ? Otherwise go here http://www.sammobile.com and download it :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Liam0102:
I got one from Dr. Ketan's thread, if needed I can just root that one. I've got plenty of time on my hands. But thanks for the offer anyway :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azzledazzle:
haha no probs :) Sometimes old links get damaged and no one notices, So i like to keep all my downloads in dropbox incase someone needs it :)

I got 25gb free space with my HTC, Plus all the bonus space for referring people lol, I may aswel put it to good use :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Liam0102:
Well the ROM i just downloaded won't extract outside the ZIP.

EDIT:

Apparently you need to use a WIPE ROM when going from ICS to GB. Is this true? Or do the normal ROMs work fine?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Liam0102:
Update:

Thanks to the help of azzledazzle I have completed my install of CM9. If anybody comes to this thread through search make sure to go to: http://webchat.freenode.net/

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] curenei:
after some reboot i keep getting red triangle with exclamation point when i try to go recovery. i need to flash again to boot to cmw recovery. anyone?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] polobunny:
If you're on a stock ROM, it's possible some file are flashing a stock recovery. Verify both of these are not present

/system/etc/install-recovery.sh

/system/recovery-from-boot.p

With root, you can delete those without a problem and reflash CWM and it shouldn't get overwritten.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] greg2826:
U can use the"one click root" method, there is option for recovery to stick.this is the way i did it 5 months ago.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] curenei:
yeah my phone is in stock rom. can you tell me how to delete those files? my phone is rooted definitely.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Harbb:
ES File Explorer, Root Explorer or any other file explorer with root functionality. Just delete the /system/etc/install-recovery.sh file.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] curenei:
i tried deleting the file install-recovery using root explorer but it says i cant delete it because it a read file only something like that. how should i delete it?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Harbb:
Look for options to mount /system as writable and make sure the app is running as root. After this it will work.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dirt:
navigate to the system/etc folder using root explorer. press the button @ top right marked "mount r/w" delete the file then press "mount r/o" button, it is same button from before. back out of root explorer & reboot. screenshot of my system/etc folder, minus the recovery file since i'm on a skanky kang.

[Windows Phone 7 General] finalzero:
Hi,

So this is a post to say how I have become disillusioned with my WP7.5 device.

I love the HD7 with WP7.5, for what it does, it does it well and it fits my one required:

"Feels like a well integrated phone device"

Unlike Android phones which feel like I am looking at a nerdy linux desktop (which is cool) but I just want to use a device that feels like a single device.

What I have become disillusioned about is the vagueness from Microsoft around Windows Phone devices, the sudden departure of something like Chevron Unlock which really pissed a lot of us developers off and slow response to the changing market.

My device is great but the OS has flaws, like why the hell is there one volume for all OS sections?

Why is when I look at a contact the phone number (the most important bit) is a tiny font?

There is a raft of other stuff like that out there. Other stuff it does really well though and I have always been impressed by it which is why I will keep my device and use it for development but I will be honest, I have a Sony Xperia S phone as well now which is getting rooted tonight and may well end up in more use.
[Windows Phone 7 General] ballanda123:
Cool Story, So...

So if you want to take hours off your life, meaninglessly tweaking your phone's OS, then you're so in the wrong boat. I ran myself so wacko for almost 2 years on Android, and WM before it. So I'm quite happy with life this way. The white-on-black theme in most apps makes the text stand out so much better to me, regardless of size.

So I also don't understand why you're so concerned about not being able to see a contact's phone number so well. It says so in big white letters above it, "Call Mobile" (etc.). So if you want to call them by number then open the dial pad instead.

So I actually love the one-for-all volume setting, as opposed to the Android "Media volume", that you can't even readily control unless / until you're playing something (except if you opt for a battery-sucking widget to track it)... then good luck remembering where you last left it.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Arthur Hucksake:
LOL Always love how iOS and WP7ers slate Android for actually giving you options on what you do with your phone. LOL

It has many flaws, but the customising options are certainly not one of them.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Dr.8820:
My 15 month old HD7 still works, even after hearing about IOS6, Jellybean, and me only getting 7.8 instead of WP8....sorry to hear about yours :)....

Sent from The ACSyndicate Tower using XDA Windows Phone 7 App
[Windows Phone 7 General] creamy:
Thanks for the input Arthur. Its nice to know that there's always a fandroid waiting in the wings, simply itching to sling his penneth worth into the fray. I mean if you didnt hang around in the forums of the other platforms then you wouldnt be able to defend your favoured O/S so vehemently now would you. ;)

I'm just surprised you have the time, when you should be scouring the net for the radio or ROM that will finally make your device work properly :D

Kind Regards,

Creamy
[Windows Phone 7 General] zulikapunk:
I agree with ballanda123 about the phone number font, "call to mobile" has a big font, you can easily press it
[Windows Phone 7 General] Arthur Hucksake:
But you CAN do that. That is my point. You have the option of customising everything, including the software on the handset.

I have a HTC Titan btw, so i'm not a fandroid. I just don't see how having real options as being a bad thing.
[Windows Phone 7 General] magicsquid:
I think the OP has a point - WP could use another Mango-style update, where MS fix lots of minor issues.

e.g. two small issues that I come across every day:

When I forward an email, I cannot edit the original text. I use copy and paste as a workaround - anyone else got a better solution?

Agree with OP about the volume controls. My WP is now my main portable audio player, either with headphones or standalone speaker. I have to keep the volume high because the headphone jack volume is relatively low. System sounds, such as calendar alerts, become very loud! Maybe some type of normalisation could also fix this.

It's basically a symptom of WP being a new OS, with only one major update so far since launch. Hopefully, MS will address the small issues in WP8 as well as adding headline features.
[Windows Phone 7 General] drupad2drupad:
Overall, WP8 for me to be my choice of OS for the next phone, has to:

a) stop playing this catch up. May be make all the well paid engineers and designers for once sit around a table, with a cuppa, give them iPhone, Android AND BBs and say "Right lads, use these toys and we want EVERY FREAKING FEATURE that they keep boasting about. We don't want exactly like that, but we want it better".

b) give some headline features. Again in that same round table talk, someone should stand up and say "Yeah mate, I get all that feature crap. We will load this WP8 with all the trivival 2005 features including even that freaking bluetooth transfer that they moan about, BUT lets also add 15 NEW features that none of these toys seem to have"

Come on, HOW hard can it be to at least make a list of features we don't have compared to other OS and add a few on top of it.

If WP8 after all these backlash, WP7.8 fiasco and kernel change melodrama is still going to be a catch waste game, I am happy with my WP7.5 Titan. Can't keep shelling out money in hope of "In future we will have..."

As long as OP's post goes - I partially agree. If certain features don't rock your boat, it just doesn't. He hasn't made those stereotypical post about 'oh my days, I don't have that bird games latest version, I hate the phone'.
[Windows Phone 7 General] fatclue:
I still don't get it. All these posters who are belly-aching about their phones not doing this or not getting that. Were these problems not present BEFORE last Wednesday? Did Ballmer send out a "Death-Ray" virus to all WP7 phones to cripple them? You either loved your phone or you didn't. You either hated your phone or you didn't. There's obviously no middle ground, judging from these threads, so go on with your lives people! Until I can attach a PDF to an email I can't go back to WP7 and I LOVE the OS whether it gets 7.8 or 10.9 or whatever.

People got so caught up with the rumors and now they can't see the trees for the forest because they're so pissed. Ask yourself one stupid question: does this phone do what I saw it to do the day I bought it? If the answer is yes......
[Windows Phone 7 General] drupad2drupad:
I think you've vented in the wrong thread ;)

What most of us who've posted here mean as a median sentiment is:

We love the phone as it is, however, there were bits of things here and there which we thought might improve in follow up updates. However, now that won't improve for sure. So although we love the phone as it is, it will be a gamble to jump on WP8 with wishful features.

I for one, won't jump to WP8, if I can't attach a PDF to email, if I can't edit email that I forward, if I can't get more than 1 month worth of emails synced in hotmail, if I can't get Skydrive better integrated. NOT because I don't like the OS, but because I think these feature are something that could have been addressed in WP7.6/7.7/7.8/7.9 - but now that there is only on WP7.8 which most likely wont address this.

AND if WP8 will be the same story, I would rather wait out till I see a "basic" feature complete phone before I leave WP7 for WP8.

One thing MSFT has taught me is: Buy our phones for what they are. Not for what we make you dream you could do. This is when I've realised the evil of closed source software. With open source, other devs can add/remove feature look at Cynogenmods (and bugs too at times!). BUT with WP, even if devs want they cant add features that easily and flawlessly.

Still at the end of the day, I am a HUGE WP fan and love the way they are pushing forward BUT I am a consumer first, end user next.
[Windows Phone 7 General] stevov:
agree with drupad. i still love my titan and the screen and smoothness of how it works. when i got the phone everyone was talking about the future and developement and new apps and no fragmentation etc. in one fell swoop all that got swept away.apps like iplayer, tvcatchup,poweramp, banking,don't look like they are going to happen. so many people have their own favorites they are not going to see. i was fortunate in my contract staggers that renewal coincided with my titan and now also my one x(the first android i've owned).i also have a renewal due with w8 release but unless i'm convinced otherwise i'll be looking else where.previous to the titan i was on a TP2. so i've experienced MS OS customer care before.they keep chasing and promising.would be nice to see them deliver.
[Windows Phone 7 General] ohgood:
As much as yours makes sense, it won't happen :(
[Windows Phone 7 General] fatclue:
No, I vented on the correct thread. Look at the OP, he states he loves his phone but goes on to say how "disillusioned" he is now. What changed? Did he wake up one day and realize he made a bad purchase? Probably not but there a lot of posters who have railed at MS for not giving them what they THOUGHT they were going to get. I'm with you on the PDF situation. As I posted, I'm not going back in unless this primary need is met. But I realized this shortcoming before the announcement last week. I was using a workaround with Handyscan but the camera in the DVP is simply atrocious so that was no longer a suitable option. I miss my Dell but I can't afford to be without this basic function so I'll plod through another year or whatever with WinMo until Adobe gets its act straight. Yes, I blame Adobe because I can attach Handyscan PDF's to email so it ain't Outlook.
[Windows Phone 7 General] magicsquid:
To be fair, I think the OP explains why he is becoming 'disillusioned'.

The OP says his device is great but the OS has some flaws. This sounds like 'middle ground' to me.
[Windows Phone 7 General] prohibido_por_la_ley:
WP8 will go hard with features and here's why: it is based on the NT kernel. The NT kernel supports far more hardware and software features than the current CE kernel. Its true that the CE kernel once did have all the features we're clamoring for but with a major performance hit. This won't be the case with the NT kernel.
