Haha..actually I change rom when I am bored with it. Now I am pretty occupied in time and thus, changing kernel seems cool.

Just some quick theme-ing and kernel swaping..

Haha patience is a virtue

Tried adaway?

This is rather strong honestly.

Changed to note2core again. Seems more stable than neak.

Hmm weird le. I tried 7.0 and 7.1 and all seems okay.

Onky for #3 not sure cos my contact are sync with normal names not chinese...haha

Thanks uncpe. Need to get one for my gf haha..

Just get the 16gb first. When and if 32gb out, swap and trade in. Might lose a bit but hey...who knows right?

AdAway is very annoying actually. Imagine you want to download a rom on your phone. Then head to the doenload page like mediashare or something. I tell you...everything looks so wrong on that page lol!

You should see when the first day 7.1 came out. Download via torrent takes 4 hours. Though website 1 day

Since you are new, I would advise you that you read up first before flashing any new roms or kernel.

Each are very different and according to what you need. Example as below:

Close to stock - ARHD
Moderate - Wanamlite
Themeing and personal favourite - Omega
Moderate slim - Monxdified
Very slim - HyperNote

Kernel on the other hand:
Note2core, perseus, redpill, neak and many more

Take a few days to read...before flashong and always backup.

Not sure lo...yeah if you want to be safe..

Hear this (happened last Saturday at work). I was lepaking and suddenly, the phone (naked) dropped from weight height. Everything went slow mo...while dropping, it was flipping so I was like...shyt!

It hit the chair leg which was made out of metal. and it went down on the carpet. I was like...oh man...picked up and first thing I do check the screen. This was crazy. The screen was not damaged as the phone back case hit the metal first...a long black mark on the case but it was just paint! Slowly wipe and everything was back to perfect. Crazy man....

That is one scary moment

Basically if you backup your apps using TB Pro, everything is auto backup. When you do full wipe, all of that will wipe off from your phone. Backup can be done with TB Pro or My backup Pro. To wipe, CWM, Super Wipe.

Thanks for clarifying.

Thanks for clarifying.

Abyss not sure but NEAK really last me 4h screen time + 30 minutes asphalt + 7 hours total usage. Hmm...but I felt it is still in very early stages where I decided to back to Note2Core Ex

When it comes to sp, do you recommend using sgp ultra optics? Is it matte?

Basically in TB pro, select preference and create a file or folderin your sd card. External one.

Save all your backup there so even internal gets wipe, your external is untouched.

You can basically, select TB pro to reinstall the whole game and backup or...just restore back the data means that you install via play store and restore data via TB pro.

Yup yup..

Sabar...sabar

Could not be SOD cos SOD pen also won't work.

Have tested your screen?

I also want to know as well. Thinking of getting SGP Ultra Optics. Kinda bored with...my cheap sp. Annoying.

Freaking big haha!

Haha...yeah man. I know what you mean. First time ter drop my Note 2..luckily nothing happen. Just waiting for 2 of my cases to come...

Okay guys...who wanna buy Zenus Vintage? ?gg

Am on Omega 7.1 and using Note2Core Ex. Loving it superbbbb!

After a few days of testing (1 more test to go honestly), this is what I can conclude about kernel. Using Omega 7.1 bloatware free version.

Battery life + performance
Note2Core Ex = Redpill Ultimate > NEAK > Perseus = Stock

Possibly future winner = NEAK
Reason being is that NEAK able to provide me with crazy battery life even with 70% of the time having SOD. Heavy gaming and screen on (browsing) and still able to hit the 10h mark. Screen On was about 5h including games etc.

Current winner on my choice:
1. RedPill Ultimate
2. Note2Core Ex
3. NEAK

Yes yes yes! I know I am free (having 5 days off so...) this is how I spend my time trying out for fun.

And for the record, thse are tweaked -50 each on voltage ONLY. Nothing else.
