Thanks ckyned and benny.
I have downgraded my 2.3.6 to 2.3.5.
I saw the thread below and it works easily (Root + CWM). Its quite similar to the threads you showed.
Now my device is Rooted + CWM.

SOURCE: http://androidforums.com/galaxy-note-all-t...3-n-finish.html

Now the question - is it really worth to upgrade the Stock 2.3.6 using Mobile Odin (to maintain the Root) or flash any other Custom Cooked ROMS?

Ya. Magnet will impact accelerometer and gyroscope as well... I thought something special to the button

bro, when it comes 2 service centre, i very frustated wit them...so normally i go 2 them oso in anger tone...if delay me i wil cal their customer relation dept 2 complaint...worse stil consumer rights...
i dun mind calling them every hour or go 2 de service centre everyday...make them fed up...

Stock XXKL8 good enough...fast, smooth, best battery usage and stable....

If u are on unifi n using the black TMRnd router than it's a known problem with the router. U can read at Unifi thread. Most gadget having problem connecting to the router. (ipod, hp, tablet)

If u r using DLink DR615 than try to change this

worth it or not, u have to try it yourself. custom rom, there's some advantages like theming, performance tweak etc. plus, if u flash custom rom directly, mostly u have u dont have to worry about root because most of them already rooted. =)
CWM is come in handy when u want to backup your whole phone.

U mean to perform a manual wipe before flashing it, or after flashing wipe it again. Coz i'm also using the Full Wipe version. Is there a non-wipe version??? I dont remember seeing one.

Using the method shown by you, it seems I will lose my Root, right?

You do a full wipe before flashing the rom zip. OR if your phone failed to reboot, just boot back to recovery to wipe it
Most users who flash from stock rom needs to wipe phone before can successfully flash it
However subsequent upgrades to the rom or even other roms , no need to wipe phone

Ha ha...I am less energetic nowadays...but lesson learned...so back to sgs for the meantime...sharing with the kids...

Yes. it's clean stock. No ROOT or CWM. Good for normal user who want speed and stable.

yeah, manual wipe eventho' the rom has wipe mechanism inside it. i didnt wipe again after flash. it works for me so far. yeah, no non-wipe version there, my bad, cause I read the FAQ in the 1st page that sounds like there's two version of it.

I flashed CheckROM from Rocket. Rocket didnt give me much problem except for the lagging browser and random force closes.

CheckROM is giving me some force close and bugs with the touchscreen.

I saw it at 1 Utama SEP. Didn't ask how much it was. I think it was the 1A version.

Anyway, the link you provided shows a 2.1A version but the picture shows the one for 1A. The correct picture should be this one;



Sure. That's the 2.1A version.

What wireless router are you using?

Switch off N. Use G only.

That's right. Unifi stock routers are crappy. Wost when you neighbourhood also have their own Wi-Fi signals.

Go to their SC personally and bang table. Make some noise and demand to see their tech. In Malaysia, that seems to be the only way to get anybody's attention when all else fails.

No wonder users have bigger external SD card to store a lot more custom ROMS! It seems I need to get abigger one too.
So, let me summarize what I learn about Android tools.
1 - Use ODIN to flash stock ROM
2 - Use Mobile Odin to flash new ROM without the use of PC.
3 - Use CWM to backup and restore ROMs.

Any other important utilities?

If your phone is rooted, buy Titanium Backup Pro - best tool to backup and restore all your apps and supporting data. This is the best app for Android - it is so good when it was at the developmental stage I donated another 4 X of the offered price to the developer before it was released officially to the Market

I am using the D Link from TM Net, square type, under so called Innocom something like that.
Using channel 11.

Will try to go to public wifi to use my GNote to determine that whether it can connect via public wifi, to ensure it is indeed router set up problem and not my GNote wifi software problem

It is most probably the unifi modem - the famous Black router issue ; have been reading too many users complaining connecting their SGS II, SGW and Galaxy Tabs ( 7, 7+, 10.1) and Note. I am using DLink at home, never used those modem supplied by TMNet

no leh. i am using streamyx. TM Net provided me with the D Link/TP Link black square type, with the word innocom (something like that).

strange thing is, both my laptop n tablet can connect, but my GNote can't connect at all. always showing obtaining IP......sigh...


I will go to public wifi n try using the GNote to connect ...to determine its the router set up...etc and not my GNote wifi software/hardware problem..

Any ideas ?

Thanks
Vincent
