Uncle benny is always so patient and helpful. 

just received new case,
Casemate Tough,
looks simple for 2 case in 1.
but the build of the case is awesome.

so does that means the note can withstand drops?

I also moved from Stunner. Like I say NO shortcut , start from base GB rom. Restore any of your rooted GB rom and start from there. I tried doing dirty install first but faced numerous force closures and GMail just refused to load up. I deleted the Gmail and reinstall it , still same. The several apps that FC I need to wipe data. And launcher keep on prompting error. So don't take shortcut

Our user here jjamain has posted a summary of the steps at XDA to flash this rom which I reproduced here:

1. STARTING BASE MUST BE GINGERBREAD WITH FULL ROOT
2. Mobile Odin
Open file...= MIDNOTE2.1_BASE.tar. http://69.46.67.99/mexicet/MIDNOTE2.1_BASE.tar
Kernel= zimage. Extract "midone3-kernel.tar" to get the zimage file. http://69.46.67.99/mexicet/midone3-kernel.tar
Enable everoot, inject superuser, inject mobile Odin, wipe data and cache are CHECKED
Press Flash Firmware
Answer "yes" on md5 verify

3. After the flash, you will be in CWM recovery. Select reboot
4. ONLY FIRST TIME you will see statusbar only
5. Long press power button, then select "reboot". You will have FRESH MidNote2.1.
6. Run Mobile Odin and make sure it has root permission
7. Reboot into CWM Recovery
8. Flash "MIDNOTE3.0.zip". http://69.46.67.99/mexicet/MIDNOTE3.0.zip . DON'T DO ANY WIPE IN THIS STEP, SIMPLY REBOOT
9. Now you are in MIDNOTE3.0 WITH FULL GAPPS INCLUDED
10. Reboot recovery using CWM manager (not 3 combo button)
11. Do a FULL WIPE DATA / FACTORY RESET, then wipe cache (NO Dalvik), then reboot
12. Check time option to "auto", then CHECK BOTH GOOGLE LOCATIONS option to "ON"
13. DO NOT ENTER YOUR GOOGLE ACCOUNT name and password in this step, finish your setup
14. Now select "APEX LAUNCHER"
15. Open Market and install "Maps", set GPS "off"
16. Open Maps, answer "ignore" if wants to check positions settings
17. LOCATE YOUR POSITION (wifi or 3G data must be ON)

Indeed, I admire his passion and interest with tech Imagine this tread without uncle benny. No one else will be this patient to guide step by step. They will just say" Read FAQ and do not post repeated question" lol

u buy Note to test drop it or coz its phone+tablet?

i buy the note for its functionality and its 5.3 mon...
