[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] jazzmachine:
No, you don't have to update to 4.4.2 before flashing this ROM thanks to civato's awesome kernel which allows his TW-based kit kat ROM to run on the 4.2.2 bootloader. If you upgrade to 4.4.2 via official methods, your bootloader will be updated and Samsung's KNOX will be installed which is not the case with the previous bootloader. If you've not upgraded yet, I'd recommend not doing so and just flashing the ROM like you would any other. Since version 1.4 or 1.3 the kernel has been included in the ROM. You'll be running optimized Samsung TW Kit Kat, but you can continue modifying your device without tripping the KNOX counter (which doesn't really matter for anything that I'm aware of but could possibly cause Samsung warranty issues(?)).

This ROM is excellent, but being able to run 4.4.2 without updating to a more locked-down bootloader is the most significant "killer feature" of several in this ROM. Good luck!
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] the orange bandit:
So I'm really digging most of the ROM, but I'm really frustrated with the new S-Note app. It didn't import my existing notes, which is a big problem, but it also seems to be much less robust - I feel like there are less options, especially in the templates, and the overall visual experience.

Is there a way, or has anyone already, reverted back to the 4.2.x version of S-Note, while keeping the 4.4.x ROM?
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] android94301:
Did it yesterday, and it's all working great!!! I love the new ROM. Thanks for doing this, it's great to be able to upgrade without locking down my tab.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] jazzmachine:
Agreed! I'm not sure if which bootloader you're running impacts performance at all (anyone know?) However, I'm definitely satisfied with how it's running on the 4.2.2 bootloader: stable / very good battery life / great performance. Glad to hear that this ROM's working well for you too :)

I discover after a search on XDA it's a issue with the battery indicator.

Maybe the issue is related with the kernel.

[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] sefrcoko:
I can't seem to get my N5110 recognized by Odin anymore. I was on CivZ rom v1.5 and it wasn't recognizing it so I tried flashing the newer v1.6 rom but still no luck. The device is recognized when it's not in download mode, but when I boot to download it no longer shows up in Odin. I tried Odin 3.09 as well as 3.07. I tried running Odin as Admin, uninstalling Samsung USB drivers, re-installing them, using Kies 3, unticking USB debugging mode on my tablet, etc. Nothing seems to work.

I have never had an issue with Odin before, and I last used it when I updated the bootloader to move to from 4.2.2 to CivZ first Kitkat rom for the N5110. All I'm trying to do now is get Odin to recognize my Note in download mode again, so that I can flash the NF1 bootloader update. Anyone else having trouble with Odin in download mode? Can anyone help me fix this?
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] civato:

Uninstall all samsung drivers and connect the device while in download mode, now it should search to install the new driver.

note turns itself on when charging

hi,

I installed the rom and the kernel (without updating the bootloader). Everything is fine and stable, I have only one issue: if I turn the note off and plug it to charge, it will turn itself on. I tried many times and the tablet will not stay off while charging.

I'm talking about the tablet, not the screen.

Does it happen to anyone else? any way to fix it?

Thanks!

Porting a mod from another rom that flashes a new seclauncher ... would that imply that seclauncher needs to be decompile and worked into this ROMs seclauncher?

[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] kouotsu:
I just got the 5110 a week ago and updated to the official 4.4.2, and now framerate sucks on some 3D games that was completely fine before. Do you think a custom rom will fix it, or could it be the updated bootloader slowing it down? I want custom either way for s-pen drawing accuracy but I'm wondering if I should try and get the tablet replaced under warranty first to get back to 4.2 bootloader.

I haven't had an android device since froyo and I was hoping to not bother with rooting etc. this time around but I guess I have no choice! I was looking at the instructions for this rom and it starts with installing Philz. How do you install a tar? Odin? I guess the first unlisted step is to be rooted before installing Philz? Are there any more unlisted steps if you're on un-rooted stock firmware?

Thanks

EDIT figured it out after some trial and error. For any other super-noobs here is the path you can take from un-rooted stock 4.4.2:

Download to your PC: CF-Autoroot, Philz Recovery, Odin 3.09

Download Civ's ROM zip and put on your SD card.

1. Boot into Download mode. Root with CF-Autoroot using Odin PC tool. Restart.

2. I needed to update SuperSU in the app store to fix a "SuperSU has stopped working" popup, then used SuperSU to disable KNOX

3. Boot into Download mode again. Install Philz Recovery with Odin in the same manner. Restart.

4. Boot into Recovery mode. Back up system. Wipe system to install new ROM. Then install the ROM from the zip.

I believe that is all the major steps I had to take. So far it's working with no issues and the S-Pen is a good bit more accurate across the screen.

So I successfully did a clean install of the ROM but the game that ran smoothly on 4.2 is still suffering in framerate, though it may be a bit better. Any ideas? I've set overclock to max but it didn't seem to affect it. Could it just be the app itself that needs to be optimized for KitKat? I will have to look for another mid-quality 3D game to compare performance.

I have n5110 8.0 rooted, I have tried several times to flash flexnote 8.0, but every time I do it sticks on the splash boot screen. Every time I try this it just sits there, I have tried 2 versions one was civatos flexnote 8.0 with aroma I've tried with and without spherekat rev. 3.8 gt-n5110 kernel. The other was just a flashable ROM ###U2CNE2 deodexed stock rooted, I have also tried this with/without rev. 3.8 gt-n5110 kernel. Yes I have latest philz cwm. Both ways I get stuck at the boot splash screen. However I am able to flash the XXCMH3 that I was using before without issue, I can also restore old backups without issue. I've tried searching the net, but came up empty as it appears I am the only person in the world with this issue, can any help? Does anyone know what is wrong or how to fix it?

From 4.1.2 to 4.4.2 without KK bootloader?

I bought a new N5110. Version is 4.1.2. Until now i ignored the update message, because i read about the problems with android KK (spen, SD card, know etc). Just now I did root my device and installed a custom recovery. I would like to try out this rom, but I'm not sure if it's possible from version 4.1.2 directly to 4.4.2 without installing the kk bootloader. I think most people here are coming from 4.2.2 and have a newer bootloader than my device.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] ramjet73:
If you check the OP for this ROM in the development thread you will find the following comment in red right below the download link:

That would mean you should be able to flash this ROM using the latest version of Philz touch recovery and get your boot and system partitions updated to 4.4.2 while still using the 4.1.2 bootloader. Make sure to format your data partition as well before the initial flash or there may be conflicts between what is already installed there and the 4.4.2 version of configuration data. The "prepare for new ROM" option in Philz recovery should perform the required formats.

My tablet was upgraded to 4.4.2 using the Odin update, which included the 4.4.2 bootloader, before I flashed this ROM for the first time so I haven't tried it with the 4.1.2 bootloader. Since [MENTION=3986004]civato[/MENTION] recently got the official Samsung source code for our device and had been previously using source for another device that could affect the booting process. I only mention that since one user recently reported boot loops after flashing this ROM in the development thread. I'd recommend that you proceed with flashing the current version with Philz recovery and the 4.1.2 bootloader but make sure you have a nandroid backup to restore if you do have any problems.

[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] CCallahan:
I believe this to be true of the latest rom version.....

It comes default with the older SNote. If you want the newer you just choose S5 SNote in Aroma. As far as I know you can still sync files between the older version and newer version. However you cannot edit an SNote document in the old version that was created in the new version. You should be able to bring your old SNote documents into the new one though and edit. I believe it will up convert but not down convert the files.

This is just what I have read and have not tried it myself. As an option you can flash the new SNote and run it alongside the old SNote just to compare/test them if you want: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2454924
