hehe.. yeah, i liked Note's big screen yet small enough to bring out.
that's why the change.. does it lag or any complaints? camera wise?

Ace is proton saga while note is honda accord. The note performance will thrash the g ace
It only lag slightly if u used 3rd party launchers as so far all such launcher cannot cope with note higher resolution. Well some users can accept the slight lag using it
Camera is good though i would not say excellent. It can match the famed xperia arc camera if not better

So Nokia N9 / sony photo quality is much better compare to samsung / iphone .

I hope you get his point. It is simple commonsense
Always do a backup before tinkering with your phone as accidents can happen though is rare in just rooting it

Just to share, one of my friend use the noreve tradition B leather case which got a small magnet at the back side of the case to attach the case stand, comfirm that when put the note inside the case, this small magnet influence the spen writing, area around the magnet will blank when write with the spen even the magnet is only at backside of the case. while take out from the case the spen writing is no problem.
So from the samsung manual which not recommend to use the case with magnet have their reason.

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

can, you can download PDF file and read it by using note

but then i dont get it " transfer the file to another website means ?
If u mean Upload the file to website , it's no problem , im always upload my file to 2shared.com from my g.note .

It will save at "download" there . if you using yr note to download the file . No need apps needed .

just now, i tried to download the pdf files from my email and it saved to Myfiles/download folder... however, when i tried to upload the file, i couldn't find the file. what i could find is just picture files from camera or saved notes.
i tried to move the file from download folder to the camera folder but i still couldn't see the file except for those pictures taken.

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

Hi Zeneziz, just like you, I am new to android (using iPhone) until recently a week ago, get myself a Galaxy Note. It was on LA1 kernel, and like you, wanted to root it as soon as possible. Although I have experience with jailbreaking in iphone but was a bit aprehensive about rooting for the first time in android. Fear of bricking an expensive gadget did come to my mind. After some research, decided to root my note. Here is my steps

Part 1: Downgrading to 2.3.5
1) Download rom N7000DXKK1_N7000OLBKJ6_XME.zip from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424997
Need this rom to downgrade to be able to take advantage of the zergRush exploit to root. I did make a mistake earlier and download an higher release rom, KJ6 (N7000DXKL3_N7000OLBKL2_XME.zip), and discover that I cannot root succesfully 

2) Once you got the rom file (N7000DXKK1_N7000OLBKJ6_N7000DXKJ3_HOME.tar.md5, use winrar not winzip to extract the zip file), flashing is very easy. Launch PC Odin and follow post# 2 of the XDA link. This step require you to put your phone to download mode which is similiar to iphone DFU mode (i guess). The whole flashing period should be less than 5 minutes.

If done successfully, you should in 2.3.5. I notice that all my app and setting are still intact. Unlike iphone IOS, they are wipe out after IOS install and need to restore from itune backup. Now you are ready for rooting.

Part 2: Rooting
1) Download InitialCFRootFlasher CF-Root-SGN_ZS_MUL_KK1-v5.0-CWM5.rar.
Important note, the version must match your kernel that you have downgrade. In this case, KK1
2) Run the batch file, not-rooted-yet.bat.
After several minutes, if things gone well, your phone is now root with CWM
Note that, there was an optional step to set your display timeout to 10minutes. I recommend that because timeout, my note screen kind of freeze during the rooting process.
Part 3: Upgrading the ROM to higher release (LA4 in my case, now there is LA6)

1) You need to download newer stock rom. In my case N7000XXLA4_N7000OXALA4_DBT.zip.
Now, LA6 is available. Use winrar to extract the tar file to put it into your note sdcard

2) To flash to higher rom, if you use the PC Odin method in step 1, you will lose root.
You need an android app (Mobile Odin Pro - paid app) from the market. This method will allow you to flash the newer room and preserve the root.

3) Download CF-Root-SGN_XX_OXA_LA4-v5.0-CWM5.rar if you are using LA4.
As you have upgrade your rom, need to fix CWM
Run batch file already-rooted.bat
Well you are done.
Although, in between steps, I did do backup using CWM and Titianum backup, the whole process (downgrading/rooting/upgrading) do not required any restoration as my data and app are intact.
In summary, rooting is relatively easy.
You should download all the necessary files before hand. And read the related posts in XDA before you commence.

Hope this help. And good luck.

wow thank you...that's was very informative. i hope this info can help others who wish to root their gnote.
anyway i have downloaded LA4 (German) and LA6 (Russia) stock roms. read that the LA4 was the best stock rom to date but wish to here other comments for the LA6 roms. so any comments for the LA6?

thanks.
