Stock ROM doesn't normally use gapps. I believe gapps are used in custom ROMs due to licencing issues.

Looking for a clean ROM...

So I've been looking for a cleaned up stock JB ROM for my Note and I'm kind of lost because there are just so many ROMs. I don't really want any added special features; I just want stock JB with all the AT&T and Samsung bull**** removed, root, and that's it. I've seen some that seem to be something like this but unfortunately I don't understand the terminology for the modems and such so I don't know what's right for my phone. I reverted to stock after having too much stupid problems with custom ROMs no matter which one I tried...they all have their own issues...but there's just too much bloat and my phone is slow as mud now. Any suggestions?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] developweb:
In stock you only have a few choices in 4.1.2 (TouchWiz Roms). I've tried Custom Canadian (great but a little laggy in my opinion), Padawan runs great but was missing hdmi sound which I could have by running Blackstar Blackjelly (my favourite).

Prophylactic had no working mhl at all but this is because of the zero bloat. Pimpdroid was somewhat overstyled but could easily be changed with a systemui file change. With an available multiwindow mod and xposed mods the world is your oyster.

As to the slowdown, I recommend trying a different kernel and overclocking only slightly in steps until acceptable.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Bubba:
If this is what your looking for then just flash the stock Jelly Bean release, root it, install Titanium Backup, and freeze the bloat that you don't want.

I have a question about swap files and an app called Ram Expander, I tried it on my captivate and it definitely did 'something', trying to get it going on my note, no success yet, but the question is "Does it work?" Can you create a swap file on the SD and effectively boost performance?

Thanks in advance for any input

Not sure if the op will help you but you can look at this thread for checks to see if you are ready to implement swap.

I'm pretty sure I read in the forum somewhere that using files for ram on our note does not greatly improve performance but rather hurts it, but for the life of me I can't find the thread with the reasoning.

What are the differences between kernels? For example, I'm looking at the Beanstalk ROM, and there is one version with CM kernel, and another with PAC kernel. Also, I have been posting about poor battery life in the past. I replaced my battery, and lo and behold, I can go all day without charging the battery, and on a busy day, I only have to charge midday. Feels great!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] elheffe:
Different kernels have different features such as performance governors or quick charge ability. They also will change the speed and performance of your rom as well as battery life. Different phones and/or roms will perform more smoothly with different kernels. The best thing to do is try them out and see which one works best for you.

can I install ClockworkMod Recovery from sd card

can I install ClockworkMod Recovery from sd card?

and can the phone be rooted with out the usb port working?

I want to update to 4.1.2 or 4.2.2.

the phone is unlocked

4.0.4 on it now

my phone has a bad usb port waiting for new one to come in, I have read that sometimes after installing the new port there could be a loss of signal, I a battery charger and a spare battery so if that happens then I will have to put the old one back in.

failed to flash rom

So I have an issue.

I installed team win project, if I'm not wrong is 2.6.3

The rooting of the phone went fine.

I've been trying to flash the avatar ROM stable 3.1

1st step is wiping, I wipe data, cache and dalvik, it says successful

Then I go to install, find the .zip file and try to flash it buy it keeps failing, it says they couldn't extract the zip

I tried another ROM but had the same issue. I've been trying to google some info about what it won't flash but managed to fine nothing so far.

So anything would be very much appreciated:fingers-crossed:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] developweb:
2.6.1.0 will probably work better than 2.6.3.0 as the latest twrp does not work on our device for many roms. I don't think this is your problem though. Are you sure your downloaded zips are good? Also by wipe data did you mean factory reset? This is generally the only wipe you need with twrp 2.6.1.0 or 2.6.0.1. After I flash zip successfully I do generally wipe cache and dalvik though. Let us know if you still have trouble. You can charge your i717 while in twrp as well. A full charge is recommended when flashing.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Bubba:
To root the port must be working.

I just went through the port change and it took 3 before my signal returned to normal. I spoke to Josh at mobiletechvideos and he said that he now replaces the port on your original flex cable. I was able to purchase an oem card through him that fixed the signal issue for me. It was$20 well spent. Good luck.

Developweb is correct. It sounds like a bad download. Check file size and md5.

"SIM not registered on network"

Hi Guys, this may be super stupid but it has frustrated me tremendously. XDA has been an amazing resource when it comes to increasing my knowledge from next to nothing to what it is now. However, I have read of plenty people that had the same problem as me, but everyone's solutions have been something different, or there have been no solution at all. Needless to say, none of those solutions worked for me. Since I had my Galaxy S2 I was hooked on flashing ROMs. It was no different with the Note. I'd always try out new ROMs, new ROM/Kernel combos, and play around with the radios. Throughout all my phone was fine. I even went through a few soft/hard bricks I was able to recover it. Recently, I got the Note 3, and didn't want to sell off my legendary Note, so I gave it to my girlfriend. Before giving it to her I flashed a bare-bone, stable ICS ROM on it. It was fine for a few weeks, then the phone started giving her trouble. I then flashed the stock Bell ROM through Odin (The phone was originally from Bell, she was using it with a Chatr SIM). At this point it seemed like the phone lost it's unlocked status. She needed it fixed quick and I was tied up at work so she took it to get it unlocked from one of those booths at the mall. Again, that lasted for a couple of weeks and bam, one day it gave her the "SIM not registered on network" error and that was it. I tried many different ROMs again. Different kernels, radios, rooting and re-flashing to stock. No matter what it kept giving me the same error. And now, even the stock Bell SIM wouldn't work on it. When she took it back to the place that unlocked it, they said something along the lines of "I think the baseband screwed up". Since then, I have yet to find a solution. I keep coming across posts that face similar problems when buying from a shady person who eventually reports it stolen, but obviously I've had the phone since new so that's not possible. Does anyone have any other suggestions for me? I know this is a long winded post, so thanks to anyone who went through the trouble reading it.

TLDR: "SIM not registered on network" error. What do?

KitKat T-Mobile Sim and LTE

I have a Tmobile sim on my i717 Note and I have used 4.3.1 ROMs down to 4.1.2 ROMs and have never had problems getting LTE. Changed preferred network to LTE and changed APN settings. Zero issues with that. Up until KitKat.

I have tried 2 KitKat ROMs (CM11 and Beanstalk) and flashed successfully with no FCs or Random Reboots. Both clean installs. Tested heavily while on Wifi.

While on the KitKat ROMs, when I leave the house and leave WIFI and when the phone tries searching for LTE, it bootloops. This happens on both KitKat ROMs.

Anybody else have this issue? Any ideas on how to resolve? I have to restore a nandroid back to 4.3.1/Liquid Smooth so I'm fine but I am curious about this issue.

I have a 64GB sandisk in my I717R. No problem with the card. You will have to use another device or a pc running 3rd party software to format the card to fat32 first.

you could find the update here on xda and use odin to flash it

bBlackstar BlackJelly custom boot animation for Note I717

Thank You for this thread by the way!

I may not be getting it but i am not understanding how to install a custom Boot animation for my S G Note I717 running Blackstar BlackJelly w/ Phazekernel for JB for speed. I saw some custom Boot animations from develop web & instructions but i am not understanding how to get the files installed. I believe i placed them in the system/ media folder of my root but how do i change the extensions on the old files to bak and keeping as backup. Also Change permissions on the new files?

Sorry, Ive done a bit of OG droid & HTC Vivid Moding but Samsung is new too me still. Any help would be appreciated!:D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] developweb:
I use ES explorer app. You need to enable root explorer in app and mount R/W on system folder. Long press on file and selecting more and properties gives you access to setting permissions. Other file explorers with root browsing work similar. :)

Edit: Forgot, rename file is kinda obvious for changing extention. You have done that before? Just givin' you a hard time. Good luck.
