And coming to the topic of roms, there is NEVER any best rom. What is good for others is not necessary for you. Test yourself and decide as different roms offer different features. Go read the XDA thread of each rom and the users commenst too. If you are too lazy to read , than no one can help you further
My comments on the various roms i have tested. these comments is NOT necessary applicable to you . It is only applicable to me

Best LEAN rom without most of Samsung bloatware : Hypernote 0.2 follow by Wannamlite 1.2. Between Wannam, Omega and Android HD - my choice is on Wannam follow n=by Android HD and last is Omega. Omega if you like plenty of features - it is quite a bloaty rom
Performance wise based on Antutu benchmarks - worse is Omega. Best is Hypernote, wannamlite
Battery savings - Hypernote, wannamlite. The rest is worse than stock rom

Added on October 22, 2012, 11:16 amKernel will ALWAYS be replaced by the rom you flash. Go read the XDA thread to find out more - i remember Android HD allows you to choose perseus kernel as option . If you want Perseus kernel, just flash it immediately after the rom zip file - keeps away guessing whether the rom comes with perseus kernel

MOST IMPORTANT : ALWAYS do a nandroid backup first from recovery mode before flashing any new rom. I repeat here, if you have chosen to swap your sdcards, in recovery mode your cards will be recognised as per original , ie ext sdcard is ext sdcard

mine also not yet registered. The Maxis MEP i bought mine, saying need about 1-2 weeks to register. I think I will wait until then.

YAY my Note 2 working now after SIM card change. Freaking cut version of my SIM by celcom cube faulty.

I notice that my note 2 battery life is draining kinda fast. Anyone face this issue?

i dont thinks so. mine no issue and using more then 10 hours without worried battery issue

yea, this is the first android phone that i dun care about the batt life lol.. confirm enough for me for my usage for 1 day.. no need tweak here tweak there..

I would say 99% of us here are impressed with the battery life. What do you mean kinda fast ??
What is your reading like - do give more info. What % and for how long and what apps running

Just as a comparison to you, with 3G actively on and background email downloads, facebook notifications, tweeter updates and phone is not being used, battery usage about 0.75 to 1%/hour
Continuous browsing on 3G - 8 to 12%/hour. Wifi browsing is 1-2% lower
Continuous Video watching about 9-10%/hour

All these on stock rom conditions, stock kernel

great phone so far for battery life

agreed.. mine so far so good

sorry for the late reply... discount... seems there was an sms from Maybank that said there will be discount for Samsung products last weekend at Mid Valley. quite sure does not apply for Note 2...


wait till you see the guy blend Note 2. he's not done it for Note 2... but he's done it for SGS2 and iPhone5.

how to know if registered or not? can go check online with samsung site?

any easy way to mute the camera shutter sound?

So far battery very good. But then again, I don't have 3G on all the time.

how do we turn off 3G and use only E? reason being, the place im working now, the 3G signal very low.. calls can get through.. i use to turn off 3G on my iP4.. i can only find option to turn off mobile data

Luckily my cut sim by Maxis MEP working like a charm.

you will receive a sms from SME informing you about the warranty has been successfully registered. Or you can send a sms to check. But i dun remember the syntax and number already.

throw away the shutter sound .ogg , as commented by one forumer yesterday, this is the confirm no shutter sound way..

according to uncle's suggestion on this, Hypernote seem the best
wannamlite is more like average ..
ok uncle i will keep EVERY of ur words in my tidy brain:respect:
going to flash wannam now, so here is the step i will do Uncle can u pls chk for me ><??

1.delete 11extsd2internalsd (remove int2ext mod)
2.reboot phone and move wanam to int sd
3.perform wipe on recovery mode
4.flash new wanam
5.flash back int2extmod
6.restore "data" only on recovery mode (done nandroid backup ady)
7.reboot phone

correct ?

so u havent recieved any sms yet? did u follow up to ur seller?

Step 1 NOT necessary as flash new rom will overwrite it
Step 2 Copy the wanna m zip to either internal or external sdcard - your choice, than only reboot to recovery
Step 6 NOT necessary if you do not select wipe data - your choice actually.

I think mine is because of live wallpaper. Gonna change it and see the improvement.
