[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] jarvisjerk:
INTRODUCTION

I've been flashing for a while now (Since G1) and XDA is my main lurking place. And it seems recently I can't find any lite TW ROMs (Which I like most) so I guess it should be about time I contribute a little something... even though it ain't much. This is very likely a one off thing until comes a time I have something to share again... so no frequent updates because it takes alot of time and I'm a really lazy bastard. Technically TWL ROM is a simple stripped down stock ROM. No extra features, no eye candies and no extra tweaks. Just plain, dark, light TouchWiz ROM.

UPDATE: I've put everything back where it was and stripped APKs further without going overboard... still managed to break SNote. WTF.

DOWNLOAD

1. TWLv2.0LTC (Google Drive)

2. TWLv1.6LTC (Google Drive)

3. Mediafire

HOW TO INSTALL

1. Download the latest Philz Kernel.

(Preferably PhilZ-cwm6-XXLTA-ATL-5.15.0-signed.zip or later)

2 On CWM Recovery, Install Philz Kernel. Reboot Recovery.

(Advanced -> Reboot Recovery)

3. On CWM Recovery again, Go to Wipe Data/Factory Reset -> Wipe Data/Factory Reset.

4. Go to Mounts and Storage -> Format /system

5. Go to Mounts and Storage -> Format /preload

6. Install TWLv1.6LTC.zip

7. Reboot System.

RECOMMENDED

1. Flash Forest-HelloWorld-Make-II kernel for JB N7000 if you want a little more power and battery life. Awesome work by forest1971.

2. If you don't use multi window (I never used it in everyday life, not sure why), you can delete; FlashAnnotate.apk | FlashAnnotateSvc.apk | FlashBarService.apk (It will free up 20MB+ of RAM).

3. Give DigiCal a try... It comes with pretty widgets that somewhat resemble Splanner's. If you're prefer it or some other Calendar App over Splanner, you can delete;SecCalendar_Q1_SPen.apk | SpPlannerAppWidget.apk (It will free up 20MB+ of RAM).
