yup, just do it. rooted it the next day i got the phone, only because i got the phone then had no computer access till the next day. follow what benny says and you're golden. its the easiest method imo.

QUOTE(benny888 @ Dec 19 2011, 08:23 PM) It is very and extremely unbelievable easy . I recommend you to flash Chainfire - you will get root and CWM installed same time. Whole process just take 5 mins. Make sure you download the right file matching your kernel . Than just connect phone to PC and run the "not-root.bat" file does flashing kernal same as using recovery zip under cwm?Before that have KIES installed on PC so that the phone USB drivers are installed on PC http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1331784  seem xda down |

If kernel is in zip format : just copy it to phone internal sd or ext sdcradseem xda down Than boot to CWM recovery ( using the 3 hrad buttons or CWM app if you have ) and just select install zip file But remember to clear cache partition and at advanced clear dalvik cache first before selecting install zip This post has been edited by benny888: Dec 19 2011, 08:38 PM |

I think kinda pointless to root the phone or flash with custom rom as of now, the benefit kinda not really beneficial IMO.
Im waiting for Ice Cream Sandwich custom rom. Battery life really terrible with WIFI. i left both 100% charged iphone and 100% charged sgn in the room with wifi connection whole night uncharged. Iphone4 still got 85% and SGN down to 25% in the morning |

QUOTE(Lazyboy @ Dec 19 2011, 08:53 PM) Benny, Just on v9 today only ; but previous versions battery life is definitely better than KK1. Because also due to the improved kernels ( has been using abyss ) plus setcpu settings I have done Do you see or notice if the Adroid OS battery consumption lowered in V9 rom compared to stock KK1 or previous rocket ROM? Anyway I never have issues with battery life. Overnite only drop most 5-7 % over a 7 hour period. Day use can last me 10-12 hours |

Sorry i have a noob question here.
what the different between root and flashing? Will flashing void the warranty too? or we can only do flashing after root?  |

QUOTE(mydragoon @ Dec 19 2011, 02:50 PM) honestly, i've not tried it out and to be honest, i dun see the need to... very picky...but look at iphone 4s....every telco bringing in... android is already 'good' in the sense that we have two sets of screens -- home screen and the apps drawer. apps drawer shows all the apps on the phone. home screen shows the apps i want to have quick access too. i dun see why one should be bothered about what's in the apps drawer coz its something i seldom access anyway... most of what i frequently access should already be at the home screen. Added on December 19, 2011, 2:51 pm safe to say that 99.9% sure Maxis will not have Note. two other telcos have it already... Maxis is not the type that likes to follow others.  |

QUOTE(lhooipg @ Dec 19 2011, 08:32 PM) hi uncle benny88...any idea why the WiFi signal is so weak, my other phone E72 is having a full bar of WiFi... I had 2 modems. 1st one : Keep disconnecting and reconnect back. 2nd one : Connect all the time. The 1st modem is just one meter far from me and 2nd modem is next room with a wall between. around 2~3 meter. So maybe it just the modem problem i guess. Cause laptop, 3DS, HTC Sensation, Desire HD in my home connect to first modem is fine and stable. Only Note quite picky. However, last night my old Huawei phone factory reset and tried connect to 1st modem, facing same problem.  Before was acting fine. |

in regards to the hub thingy, my note had got only: social hub & reader hub. no game hub.
on my sgs2, there's social, reader and game hub. both don't have music hub (if there's such thing). |
