Most obvious :If rooted, you can backup all data associated with each app.
If rooted when you select restore app, it will be auto done and not be prompted whether you want it to be installed for each app

Menu/preference set it there
Before that create titaniumbsckup folder in ext card.

You can use any generic USB-micro USB cable ; infact I am not even using the original cable n desk charger to charge my NOTE. I used a ipad USB desk charger and a old USB-micro USB cable - just a typical cheap generic I bought in lowyat

Just directly opposite times square.

Definately it will get scratches easily. I protect mine in a fully covered case ( bought for my ex Dell Streak ) - perfect fit

The note beats/thrash my iPad 2 watching videos on YouTube. It is so much smoother with minimal disconnection.
My 32GB class 10 card nearly full with mainly movies I converted directly from dvd

I used the yes huddle as wifi hotspot

Go and set home button to take call at settings/call

That is one crazy high pricing ? where did you hear about this

Hellcat works very well with the Note. Just execute the apk file

You install chainfire CWM you will get the CWM app auto install. Need not use the 3 buttons to boot to recovery or download mode

Root will void warranty
Very easy to root versus streak. If I rate difficulty of 10 to streak it is only 1 for the note
You need root to run certain apps eg adfree,titanium backup, root explorer,market enabler etc n of course to flash certain roms

It is hundred times easier just install hellcat APK. Run it few seconds EFS backup and similarly few secs restore back

Nandroid will not backup your phone imei/efs stuffs

If you used Zergrush exploit to root you can use it back with script to unroot
If you have root using others, just flash back stock ROM to unroot

Pm me your email address n I send you the APK file

Right no purpose unless you just wish to backup certain data files created by certain apps
Just use titanium backup and it will restore your apps n data that is in the internal as card
Most of time even you flash ROM the internal sd is intact. Even if it crash repartition it will restore its original state n one can just copy over the backup if you have a copy. No need concern about hidden files

Not necessary to upgrade firmware. You can root it using zergrush exploit:

His guide also has instruction how to root plus install CWM too - just make sure you download the right kernel matching yours

You can than upgrade your firmware after root ; some users has reported the root will remains with firmware upgrade. If you want to have better assurance, you can upgrade firmware first than root

Refer page 101, post #2001 - I have listed some of the apps I have installed on my note . Use it as a reference guide

This is ROOTING guide for new users to Android ( taken and edited from my SGS II thread posting ): TS please post in page 1 if you deem useful

What is rooting and what are its benefits?

Rooting an Android phone opens its core functions that aren’t available when you buy it. One of the major benefits is the ability to install apps to the SD card, which saves space on the device. Rooting also enables you to install apps that required access to system files, example - titanium backup , root explorer, adfree, voltage control apps, etc . Commonly use of rooting is to allow installation of alternative roms which is faster and better, more features, and reduced bloatware. Some roms will auto root when you flash your phone
Rooting will not remove your 3rd party apps, data/wipe clean your phone. And the chance of bricking the phone during rooting is close to impossible. Just make sure your phone has at least 50% battery charge. Do refer to the specific methods on how to unroot back

Refer below links to understand more about rooting :
