[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fbh59:
looks strange

switch off your device completely, now just press power button and volume "DOWN" button simultaneously and dont leave them.

well, it should not show the "SAMSUNG GALAXY TAB 2 7.0" thing and directly boots the screen into the download mode.

do you mean that, even on doing this too u get the error message as prescribed by you in your above comments--->"error updating firmwire" or something like that??? cz manufacturers first check your device is under warranty or not by entering into download mode(by checking the binary counter) and then booting and checking for root apps(some manufacturers dont check this thing, they just check binary counter)

well for entering into recovery mode u ve to do the reverse----->power button+volume "UP" button, but in this case you it should show that "SAMSUNG GALAXY TAB 2 7.0" thing, as soon as it display you should leave your power button but keep pressing your volume"UP" button.

do you mean even on doing this too you get the same error message?????

if yes, then it is likely that your device is permanently bricked(well, NOT SURE), but then you should consult to samsung for a replacement if its within warranty, else there may be some advanced users or software developers in this forum who may help you, i am just an amateur, sharing my experience with such devices.

So I am thinking about switching from the Galaxy Nexus to the Galaxy Note 2. However I do not see any custom kernels listed in the development section. Do any custom kernels currently support the VZW Galaxy Note 2?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] willlay:
Go to the original development section. There is a kernel there.

Check out the Perseus Kernel - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2048013

I run it on my vzw Note 2 and the Beans ROM...there are a number of flashable profiles, but I have just been tinkering directly with the STweaks setting tool that comes with the kernel.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] druhaul:
does franco kernel support the note 2?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] nnnnr14:
No
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dcdgoth:
nope. I wish he does though.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] SuperDefcon5:
The other carrier versions on the note 2 have more kernels, would it be hard to port them to our Verizon Note 2?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] druhaul:
good question...I have the same question for roms as well...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] imnuts:
No, it shouldn't be hard to port kernels at all for the Note 2, as they all use relatively the same underlying hardware.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Wool02:
I came from the GNex and flashed every combination of rom and kernel. Don't hesitate to get the Note 2 because of a lack of kernel development. The battery life is great and this phone will smoke anything you throw at it running the stock kernel. I have run the Perseus and while it's nice to have the capability to overclock I don't see much of a difference in performance compared to stock.

In short, get this phone.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] tfly212:
+1 on that...I am running perseus too and overclocked to 1800 and it didn't seem any faster. Stock is blazing as is. I did undervolt though and stretched moderate usage on 4G the entire time to 1 day 18 hours with 10% left.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] shojus:
You guys that say the Perseus kernel seems to give you no performance boosts are exactly opposite from what I experience... Just don't download those damn profiles and adjust all of the settings within "STweaks"... You can totally customize everything, and if you have the right settings for your phone, then you WILL notice an increase in performance. You can even adjust the Gpu, which is what I like about it, but the kernel is rock solid for me... It is a must have on my Note 2! :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] tfly212:
I will have to tinker with the performance settings a bit more...I was a little wary of messing with much more that the clock speed and the voltages (and I was conservative with those). I didn't mean to make it sound like the perseus kernel isn't great, it is...more that stock is so surprising good too. I am only a month removed from a droid Charge so everything about this phone still blows m away.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] tgyberg:
I used my phone (clocked to 1.8 and GPU at 640) and my buddies TMo phone with perseus (stock settings) and we could both tell that my phone was noticeably quicker. It's really hard to tell the difference unless you have two phones like we did.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] druhaul:
are there any kernels for AOSP that support screen color mods?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] SuperDefcon5:
Stweaks has options for different color amounts. What type of color mods are you talking about?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] druhaul:
Looking to change color multipliers and the gamma, I have tried to the color controls in stweaks and i feel they are really wonky and overly complicated as opposed to the amazing color control via the Franco kernel updater app for my old gnex
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] akellar:
All of the kernel tweaks are more involved and 'complicated' than the nexus ones. I have yet to feel like I needed to tweak anything manually though.

I have stock ICS 4.0.4 rom and I want to root

my Note and flash to Cyanogen ROM or paranoid rom.

1 question: Will I be able to flash using Philz Cwm6 Kernel, or should I use other Kernel?

2. Does a stock ICS rom is a peoblem flashing to Jelly Bean Cyanogen or is the kernel which is important for flashing?

P.S Sorry if I wrote something because I'm still noob on phone modding.

just go to install a safe kernal here for ur ICS4.0.4 http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1901191

my advise is do a backup using the safe kernal b4 flashing any roms it might help u in case something when wrong.

if u really don't know how to flash CM u can go find a rom manager it might be the easiest way for noob.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SpyderTracks:
Flashing cm requires first flashing a cm 10 or 10.1 kernel, have a look in chasmodo's kernel repository in the stickies somewhere for cm based kernels.

Doesn't matter what rom you're on, you're right it's the kernel that's the important part.

Also if flashing cm base, make sure you perform full wipes before and after flash for best stability.

You won't be able to boot into ics, but once you've flashed cm kernel, then reboot into recovery and flash CM rom and then gapps, then do 3 wipes before boot.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nokiamodeln91:
Philz has fixed th error 7 on the 3.99 release. So you can go ahead and do the formats and flash the cm rom. There is actually no need to flash the th cm kernel first.

Used it up until avengers ended to watch a movie while messaging my fiancee... works wonders.

The mod to allow all apps is awesome btw, I hate the fb app but love messenger... So video player in 3/4 of the screen, messenger in 1/4.

Plus video player natively has the ability to make the movie smaller and be able to be placed in to of any screen.

The multiwindow really is a useless gimmick on a device the size of the GN2. Makes more sense on the 10.1 where you have sufficient real estate to use it. Also on the 10.1 you can drag and drop images between apps while in multiwindow but on the GN2 you cannot. Kind of takes away one of the real functionalities it offered.

For me it is right up there with 3D screens - cool but useless gimmick.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] netzer119:
That's funny I actually dislike pop up browser and use split screen way more often. Web pages in pop up are just tiny and require way too much scrolling once ur zoomed in. Split screen is so much more useful imo. Not to mention u can't download within the pop up. I have frozen pop up at times but there are other times where it kinda helps ...Also people think it's cool so I keep it but still think it's more of a pain to use than actually functional
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] aquaholik:
I tried it then turn it off. Not enough screen real estate.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Tw1sted247:
" useless gimmick "? Not even close With multi-window I can

1) voice chat on one half while jotting down the shipping list the wide is giving me on the other half

2) open my GPS and guide my lost friend to their location.

3) While texting on one half I can look up info on the internet and convey it quickly copying and pasting one to the other if necessary.

4) watch a YouTube video on one half while actively writing notes on the other. Or looking up info/download links on the net on one side while watching the how to video on the other.

5) Actively compare prices and who has what in stock while shopping.

6) open a document and edit it while talking with a colleague then email it to them after the edit all while continuing your face to face Congo.

7) hook it up to the TV and you can browse the web and catch up on XDA while the kids watch a movie on the other half or 3/4 of the TV.

8) while writing an email you can reference back through previous emails or texts on the fly. Also referencing video clips and pulling web addresses.

9) Run your IRC channel on one side while running your torrent program on the other. Or scan the net or watch movies while chatting or skimming through the IRC chat.

Here are just a few quick examples that are all very helpful and in NO way a gimmick. There are endless possibilities with this tool. But maybe your not a busy person and therefore you don't need to multitask. But for those of us that do this is an extremely useful tool, and it brings the smartphone platform that much closer to that of the PC.

The only phone maker (Samsung) that really is giving the consumer what we want.

I just can't speak on it because I've never used this feature without the hack.

Being that you have to mod your phone just to use it to its full potential makes it sort of a useless gimmick. Like why go thru all that? What about all the people outside of xda who have this phone?

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] archa1c:
I have since moved on to the HTC One (my favorite phone ever, thus far) but I do miss multi-window.

I actually used it often when I had my Note II.

I travel a lot, so I would regularly split the screen with navigation and Pandora controls.

I would also play podcasts or youtube videos while web browsing or reading email. I think it's a great feature, and I do miss it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] phatmanxxl:
Its a useful feature when you need it like watching a movie in one window and texting in the other. Id rather have it available instead of being labeled a gimmick and pretend its not useful.
