But i believe note & iphone 4s camera is more than enough already . i cant really feel much difference smile.gif

Anyway , Gnexus camera not really nice isnt it ?
*
If you read my blog comparing the g nexus and the note my conclusion the g nexus camera shots is better than the g note even though it has a lower mp camera

benny, is nandroid backup located in CWM recovery mode on restore/backup? And is substancer going to be doing LA6?
*
Your backup will be found in the folder clockworkmod/backup in the internal sd or external sdcard depend on whether you choose backup from cwm app which you have choice to choose. If done thro hard button recovery mode it will default to ext sdcard
Substances la6 no idea . Just have to wait

Why scroll web o menu in gnexus is faster n smoother than galaxy note??? scroll web wit my note ada slightly lag laa... btw note not root yet... is that normal???
*
It is a fact the g nexus is smoother than the g note probably due to ics. Nothing to do with root or not rooted as this does not contribute to performance unless you mod the phone with tweaks and kernel changes

guys, currently im on LA1, rooted.
if i want to flash Rocket ROM V21, which is in LA4, do i need to flash stock ROM LA4 first?
and i can flash Rocket ROM V21 using CWM Manager right? (by using "flash kernel" option)
*
Flash directly from cwm will do

what is the best ROM now? in terms of performance and battery life
*
My opinion
Close to stock : substancer LA4 w abyss 3.6 kernel
With plenty tweaks : rocket v21 w abtss 3.6 kernel
Light clean rom without most of samsung stuff: cassie LA4

Now on ldroid LA6 still observing performance

I don't get it, after undervolting my Note, i have been getting random hang at random intervals. The Note also can't wake up sometimes. I encountered up to 4-5 times in a week. I have no doubt it has to do with the SetCPU's voltage settings. Is there anywhere to revert to default voltages? i can only get revert and restore. i did'nt save my default settings.
*
Go to settings/applications/manage applications - browse to setcpu : select clear data , uninstall setcpu if you want
Reset phone and it will default back to standard voltages

Benny,i tried clearing data and uninstalling setcpu but it is still using the same settings for voltage as before, is resetting the phone the only way to reset the settings?

Restore your backup before you change the voltage. You nean you now still cannot change the voltage settings?

uncle benny i tried downloading the wifi fixer u recommand,however i'm still getting the same problem where my GN wifi kept obtaining IP then reconnect repeatly.

I read in the net that's it's a common issue for android phone but the problem to solve it is to delete the DHCP list and it will work however i can't find that file in my phone. would you able to help me on it?
*
Sorry no idea. I never faced any serious wifi issues in all my androids phones or tablets since the first nexus one. So never have to trouble shoot this. The wifi fixer was mentioned in one of the thread and i did test it out at one of the mcdonald outlet as it fix my internet access then

That is unlikely abyss problem as this kernel is very good if not the best on battery savings. It is excellent on all the cook roms i have been on

guys, i have a problem with my Note...i recently install new ROM - ROCKET ROM - v21 - XXLA4...before i proceed, i have backup my ROM, then do full wipe/factory restore...the ni install the new ROM...after successful installed, i reboot my device and then i stuck/bootloop at boot animation...i keep play the animation over and over...i want to restore to my previous ROM but i already moved the backup to my PC...

question is how do i copy back the previous backup to my phone?
*
WTF did you moved your backup to pc for? you are supposed to keep the backup in your phone so that you can restored it when you need it. So now copy back the backup to the external sdcard in the folder clockworkmod/backup. Create these folders in ext sdcard if you did not have such
Boot phone to recovery mode and select restore. The phone will look for the backup n select your backup copy to restore

I just flashed to Cassie's ROM and a lot of stock apps are gone which is good cause some are bloatwares but the most important app has gone which is the Application Monitor Widget. Is there anyway i can flash or download and install from?
*
You can download his zip file containing all the deleted apps. Unzip the file look for it under system folder. Locate it n copy it to /system/app in phone usung root explorer. Reset phone
Or if you have a copy of titanium backup made select from the tab backup/restore scroll down right to bottom of list the app ( it will be strikeout) tap n select restore

You can try as he did said in his posts, one can do that. Worst is you cannot flash it successfully. You'd need to rezip his file with those apk taken out

Any of you regret buying Samsung Galaxy Note?Just want to make sure before buying!!! It is too tempting if do not get one
*
You will regret only if what you NEED is not in the phone or it does not perform to your expectation
So study the phone specs, features and see whether it has those stuffs that meet your NEEDS not your wants. there is no perfect smartphone including even iphone 4s that can meet everyone needs fully
Read at least two threads of this forum and view other users experiences, their problems, the happiness etc and you will have a general idea about the phone performance and features. At least read page 1 the links to the various web reviews
Example , I read of users who immediately complained why the Note doesn't have LED notifications and they are unhappy over it - goes to show they never study the phone features before buying ??

As for me, I must say this is the best android smartphone I have purchased follow by the G Nexus n SGS II. It meets practically all my needs not 100 % and as I always said as long as it meets 80 % of my needs , it is good enough. Infact it meet more than 90 % of my needs

Nothing special. Quite similar in performance to his LA4. It comes with FM kernel. Has some fc when i install ontop of cassie LA6 which i never faced in previous rom installs ontop of other rom. Anyway i decided to wipe phone n reinstall it. Just has been on it only 3 hours. Will be monitoring battery usage.
