Bro..CWM dont have icon. You use it by pressing three buttons combo. Use the link that i gave to know about CWM. Busybox mostly auto applied when you're rooted. Without busybox your Titanium Backup wont function

it is simple bro. it means it literally push the message to you. 

I captured a screen shot..there is a CWM icon there..So do I have to download ADB now to backup my efs?

May i know you using what method when do your rooting.? Sorry..i still haven't root my phone yet.
Can you get into CWM recovery when you use that CWM icon apps.?

bro you are making a mistake my closing your apps manually. it is better to press back to exit an app so it will be in sleep model. Android os have their funny way of managing apps, so if you keep closing it manually you will in fact use more battery.

Yea, just like wat ohmlawx said..thats how it works

Guys, I just want to share my findings on battery saving that is not well documented.... I've done researched on this since day 1 I got the Note on 11.11.11 and after much testing with BetterBatteryStats and Battery Monitor Widget, please allow me to present to you my findings... this should apply to all android phone, I will not talked about those more commonly battery saving method that is well known all over the internet, just google it. One good source is here by fellow LYN member jjamain :

Anyway, the below look daunting and too much steps or too long. Some may think it's too technical but overtime when you'll get use to it and understand it, it really is simple. I hope you can give it a go below and feedback to all us so we can have good data on this :

1. Install BetterBatteryStats - it's free at XDA but pls consider to buy it from the market to support the excellent software development... I did

2. Install Battery Monitor Widget - it's free from the market and had a nice battery widget and you can un-install it after you achieve your goal

3. Charge your phone to 100% before you sleep, unplugged the power cable and put your phone to sleep, recommended to leave it overnight to have better reading, if you dun hv the time and in urge to test it right away, then 2-3 hours sleep would be good enough to get a good reading

4. The next day when you wake up, open BetterBatteryStats and show the option Partial Wakelock and Since Unplugged, by the default the stats is ordered by time which we will concentrate first. Tap left soft key > actions >history, it will show you a graph and what you should be looking at is awake and screen on.

Or you can go to Battery Usage under Setting > About and you should see Awake and Screen On should roughly have the same blue bar... if your Awake is more then your Screen On then read on....

If you did not installed any battery saving apps, you will most likely see RIJL, GTALK_ASYNC_CONN, AlarmManager with high wakelocks. Else you may see your battery saving apps likely in the top of the list eg. Juice Defender... so in actual fact the battery saving apps may eat more juice than save it

Now WTH is wakelocks, in layman term, wakelock will prevent your phone from sleeping or when your phone is sleeping an apps or service may make a wakelock call to perform something so even though your phone is sleeping it is interrupted to check on something in the background, eg. weather sync, account sync etc. No one like to be interrupted or disturbed when we are in deep slumber right? So is your previous Note ... You can read read all about wakelock and betterbatterystats from XDA or google it...

5. So if you see RIJL and GTALK_ASYNC_CONN as your top wakelock "performer", the culprit is likely Google Maps, you can then either uninstall it, freeze it or disable it, then repeat step 3-4 to test the result. While you are at it, logout from latitude, it's another major battery draining apps.

6. Now tap the left soft key in BetterBatteryStats and then touch Order by Count - this show that the service/apps is calling wakelock to your note multiple time in a very short time frame.... you should likely see AlarmManager in top 5 (also likely u will see the RIJL, GTALK_ASYNC_CONN and your battery saving apps as top "performer"). If you are using the stock Calendar then that's your problem, replace it with others calendar and try again to see if AlarmManager give the same high reading, if yes, replace it again... until one that does not cause AlarmManager to have high wakelock... I'm still testing this.. so if you guys have good result with any 3rd party calendar, please feedback.

Lastly, if your Android System has high wakelock or high processing % then the culprit is Network Time. I know most of us use this setting because we want the most accurate time but we'll be better of turning it off. To do this : Settings->Date&Time-> untick Automatic

Oh, that's not the last... it's recommended to calibrate your battery even if it's new after 7 to 10 days of usage... I've not done this but I will do it on the 21st which is exactly 10 days of usage... will calibrate using Battery Calibration from the market, will update later on this after I perform the calibration...

That's all guys, I hope with the above, you can enjoy a longer battery life duration... I hope this help you all... do let me know if you have any issue and I will try to answer it with my limited due diligence thus far on this topic... This is my contribution to my fellow Note users... enjoy

Good info sharing there entaro! By the way, how do you stop those apps that is running at the back even after you stop it and it'll turn on back again? For example the Google map thingy.

Ohh..then you can use it to do your Nandroid backup :-)
And for efs backup the easiest way is by using HellCatDroid Tool like Uncle Benny said in his previous post

One way - ROOT your phone
~~muahaha~~

any ideas when we will receive ICS??
