Guess I should have narrowed down the search on the Android threads.

How to update to ICS on Note?

Ahh, Note battery is really scary sometimes...



Trying to run it down for recalibration on stock LC2 after one full day of usage...

You're on Stock ROM LC2? Rooted?

Of course you can always use Odin to flash back GB rom. I suggest you flash those prerooted Gb roms and no need worry about yellow triangle
Download the rom you want from here :

You have to reinstall CWM separately matching your chosen kernel

uncle benny, have you tried the midnote 3.3? any good compared with 3.2?

I hold my horse first as heard 3.4 with fully deodexed and zipaligned LC6 rom is in progress...

You must start with a full rooted Gingerbread rom
The guide is all at XDA : the flash instructions is clearly listed - not going to reproduced here - go and read it

Rom with Samsung Spen functionality:

Midnote 3.3 : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1511841
Alba v2 : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1579301

Rom without Spen functions n lack most Samsung apps - pure AOPK :

Stunner 5.0 beta : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1579301

any feedback on Stunner 5.0?

Yup, still on stock LC2 rooted after last week's crazy attempt at Stunner.

To be frank, not sure if I want to flash Stunner anymore because after applying V6 Supercharger script, LC2 is pretty damn smooth for me.

Of course, battery consumption is that good also due to removing Social Hub + WiFi Sharing Manager. Pretty much decreased battery life drain quite a bit. Before I removed those, one day at work = 60% battery consumption over the day. After removing = 40-50% battery consumption only. These figures are with 3G fully on over the day (since no WiFi allowed at office).

And yesterday was even better due to strategic usage of Flight Mode over the day. That's why it's still alive now I guess.

I was not even aware of Stunner 5.0 until just now a minute agao. Now downloading it
At same time also finishing download of Midnote 3.3

Will test Midnote 3.3 first than followup with Stunner 5.0
Based on changelog Stunner 5 seems to fix up a lot of 4.5 defiencies

ok bro, noted...btw, will try Stunner first...

Stunner 5.0 is a major upgrade, moving from Android 4.0.3 to 4.0.4
Must wipe data/factory reset and all caches before flashing if you are moving from another ICS ( even Stunner rom ) roms

Can you guys recommend me any screen protector?
I want crystal clear, but must be anti fingerprint and scratch too (won't leave behind micro scratches when i use cloth to wipe it)

I hear the Spigen SGP Ultra series is quite good for this. Can check this guy's thread for more info: https://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopic=1747462

hows ur battery life bro...? already ok or not...

If I remove WiFi Sharing Manager, does it mean I can't do tethering on my phone anymore?

ahh. thanks for the recommendation

well.. with around 2 hours listening to songs, frequent watsapp, some browsing and some e-book reading... can last for around 11 hours.. So , i guess that's good enough to me lah...

No ; it does not affect thethering. I always freeze these wifi sharing on all my roms - pretty useless to me and with it on, it sucks up battery
