[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lister Of Smeg:
Hi DaedRic,

Guess what I picked up yesterday, yippie Im now part of the N7000 gang... and I must say, I'm LOVING IT!!!! :D

ClockWorkMod, ClockWork Recovery, same :D

I've downloaded various kernels, and placed them in the relevant folders, so should make it either to use/choose when flashing ROMs... I think Im getting used to which kernel is for which rom... Just a little confused about the PAC (ASOP rom based?). Was using stock CM kernel, but then flashed RAW v3 CM10.2 (as on PAC, with Android 4.3) as I thought it offered more kernels/performance tweaks... But looks the same, still, it works so not complaining... lol

Must say, I did love the Philz Kernel / Touch CWR feature, amazing... wished his CWR could be used in all ROMs :) Gonna try the NX Kernel later...

Guess your refering to the Hydra(summit) Kernel as I just saw that mentioned the other day in a different website that claims it works on ALL roms... May have a look at that... Whats the worst that will if I install the wrong kernel for the wrong OS?? I assume all mod/developed kernels here are patched for eMMC, so that shouldnt be an issue... I guess it will just mean the Android will not boot...?? It wont cause any lasting damage will it, and I can simply re-flash...??

I downloaded Philz, and rooted and installed Recovery.... Must admit, I didnt really like the official stock TW Rom... Seemed ugly and slow/laggy.... PAC 4.3 on the other hand, AMAZING!!! LOVING IT!!!! And it brings back features that were in the original PAC, but missed in the Android 4.2 rom (well, for the Blade it did anyway) as loving the weather changes... this is awesome!!!

Well I got rid of official TW rom now, and running PAC 4.3... All has gone well... I didnt install any Kernel to start with, as I thought/assumed the stock CM one would be ok?? Am I right to think this, or did I need to install a Kernel straight after flashing..? Anyway, I have now installed RAW... and may try NX soon too....

However, when installed PAC 4.3 rom... Its got rid of Philz Recovery, and just has a standard ClockWorkMod recovery... Is this normal and is this safe to do all the normal wipes in...?? Also if I am running Android 4.3, am I safe to do the Factory Reset within this version of Android too??

Can I install Philz Recovery from the current CWM, even if it's just to use for Flashing (I appreciate it will disappear again when installing another rom) But wondered if I could do it in standard CWM or will it introduce the Yellow Triangle...??

I also backed up my EFS straight away, as soon as I got root... Both by navigating to the files directly, and letting Philz Recovery do it too... So I should be safe...

But yes, loving this device....

I do think I have a faulty battery though (like the sticker says on it...) as I was charging it, and the battery was going down whilst plugged in. Still, after installing RAW... The battery/N7000 feels cooler too and is charging normally... But I shall still but an official battery replacement anyway, just to be on the safe side....

Many many thanks for all your help... Im sure I may have some more questions, but you've been a great help... THANK YOU!!! :)
