Yeah, but its 4.1.1. I was actually looking for a 4.2.2 release. I have Official jb 4.1.2. German release and I am knew to flashing a rom. I was wondering how much speed will i gain? Would it be noticable? I am interested in Supernexus 2, Asylum, maybe Carbon. I really hate now lag in some aplications like facebook,G+, it takes forever to open Contacts,write messages, and so on.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] agurudev:
I would go with Carbon ROM or Asylum ROM (if you do not mind flashing the nightlys). I just switched from Asylum to Paranoid only because it allows a little more customization.

Asylum is great in all respects and in my setup/usage has the best battery life too. Carbon for stabilty and speed. Paranoid for customizable options including Phablet/Tablet/Phone UI.

I am using Carbon rom. Its much faster than official JB 4.1.2. but still i get some glitches, and a bit of lag while scrolling in some applications. :/ Is it because of the hardware, or i didnt do something good?

i install latest cm 10.1 kernel for n7000, wipe factory reset, wipe cache partitions, wipe darvink, and format system in mount and storage. Maybe i had to go to Mounts and Storage and mount /cache /system /data /preload and format /cache /data /preload before installing a carbon rom?

try a variety of ROMs, keep criteria consistent in all of them (animations on/off, force GPU on/off etc) and see how they compare. it's all a matter of personal preference I believe :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vincanity84:
:/

I will, I tried couple of them . And by your opinion for your use, which is the best, and why? :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alba Donzo:
Well let me qualify my usage firstly. I'm not a "hardcore gamer", I am not interested in "benchmark scores". I am 44 years old and my preference is the overall "feel" of the ROM when I use it. Email, call, text, camera, music, browser and movie playback / Flash web streaming (VERY important) are my main focus. I play games but they are Pitfall style games, not "Alien Zombie Mega Death 5 - in 3D" :D. I don't need 23 toggles or SNote, I've tried all the ROMs on the N7000 Roms-db but my personal preference as a daily driver is CM10.1 (4.2.2). There are many excellent AOSP, AOKP and TW ROMs (Burt and Team Union in particular) but you ask me for my personal preference and it's CM10.1 nightly, for all the reasons mentioned above. But it's ONLY my opinion :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vincanity84:
:)

I use it for same thing. I am 28 years old. I dont play any games on the phone because I am not a kid anymore. :) For me, camera is very important because i shoot a lot of pics. Ofcourse social stuff is always welcomed.(face,g+,twitter). But mainly I would like overall feel to be smooth. I hate lag in anykind of apps. Battery life would be nice. So i guess i am looking for a light rom, with a lots of black backgrounds (amoled sufficiency), and because I am always interested in a new stuff i would like to try everything what comes out new, and that could give me, on other side, stability and reability:)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TavoAcAr:
If you want to try some really good v4.2.2 JB (obviously AOSP/CM) custom roms, then the two I most recommend are in this order (tried by myself as daily drivers):

1) father Chas's Asylum

2) Toxicthunder's Carbon

both with the relatively new Linaro toolchain... they're fast, smooth, great battery life, simpler yet very usable.... Asylum is a bit fast and smooth (always on latest Keiras™ with full-wife™) and Carbon is a bit more customizable and chic. You can't go wrong with any of these... but in ALL roms -custom or stock- you'll find some glitches and lags here and there, soon or later, this is Android and its normal for this operative system, also the n7000 harware even trough is still one of the best, is now old (in tech time) so, slowly it will become in like "installing windows 8 on a pentium III cpu" to give some example...

But I also have to tell you what other users already said... it's just my opinion and my liking and this custom rom thing is like beauty (relative and in the eyes beholder)... also, you'll never know for really sure if you don't experiment by yourself with lots of roms, kernels, mods and scripts, in fact, thats the pure core of this forums: experimentation. Hope you find the right one and have fun :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arinsms:
Asylum is your choice, dont ask anymore, please flash it and you love it. :good:
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vincanity84:
:)

I forget to mention that I flashed carbon 5 days ago, and now I am using Asylum. They are much faster then official JB. And much more customizable. Toxic's Carbon has a bit more optimization, but Asylum is lighter and blacked out, so i like it a lot. Still i can find some glitches and lag, but not so much like in stock JB. :) Second question would be, what kernel is the best I mean which one would give me smoothnes and zero crashes, and good battery life. I am on latest cm 10.1 from kernel repository " Kernel_CM10.1_20130225_n7000_CWM.zip *new mali*" for me its good, but maybe I am missing something?

I didnt experiment a lot with kernles, because I wouldnt like to brick my phone. :) For example I know that I should have safe kernel before flashing a rom, and i did that becase I had Gingerbread. But I have 2 n7000, and on other phone i have rocket rom on ICS (4.03). Can i flash CM 10.1 kernel and install this roms (4.2.2), or its not safe?

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] sincinati:
Dear Reader,

I’m basically a noob when it comes to rooting and custom rom-ing and bootloader-ing… and stuff. Unfortunately, I am forced to go down this road because my xperia lt26i, after having set it up the way I like, allows me less than 100mb ram to play around with! This means my phone is usually quite laggy and unresponsive.

Ideally, I’d like suggestions on how to unlock the bootloader. However, I have approached every avenue in that direction and have reached dead ends. This phone, it appears, is not able to have its bootloader unlocked. I contacted both my network provider (who helpfully offered to unlock and root my phone) as well as Sony, who said they couldn’t help. I don’t know whether some OTA update will allow it to happen at a later date. But who knows…

Going back to my RAM related problems, I’m looking for custom ROMs which are a) light on RAM, b) free of third party bloatware and c)offers as close to a ‘nexus’ experience as possible. Currently I’m using Nova Launcher to achieve that. Actually, a custom ROM with Nova Launcher would be perfect.

Also, any other tweaks that can help speed up the phone or save/increase(ha!) RAM would be helpful.

Basically, I’ll take what I can get :angel:

Good luck, I am currently running CM10 with Nova launcher and it works well, I also left stock roms because of lags and memory and I am very happy now.

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] sincinati:
Your v4 sounds really interesting. May I know what the .587 means/entails?

Also, in terms of backing up, I need to get cwm (which will no doubt test me lol) and do a nandroid backup before flashing the ROM. From the limited reading that I've done, it means that it will create an image of the phone as it is now. Then, I will need to backup the sd card seperately.

Can I get confirmation that the nandroid backup will err back up my settings, widgets and wallpaper settings too? (I use minimalist text and paperland you see.)

Also, after I flash your ROM, will I be able to use Nova prime with my existing settings?
