sorry. didnt make it clear.

ok. my note 2 is rooted with stock rom n kernel. never flash any custom rom but weirdly my binary count is 1 and not 0 supposedly.

after i flash the new firmware, my device status is still showing 'modified'. i can still see superSU in my apps but cant open it. i thought after unrooting superSU will uninstalled by itself. huhuhu cry.gif cry.gif

Erm.. by using triangle away, do i still need to do a factory reset to get binary count to 0?

is there any other way other than doing a factory reset?

so far i never flash any custom rom but my flash counter is 1.

stock rom n kernel. rooted.

How to increase grid size from 4X4 to , say 4X5 or 5X5 or 5X6 in Touchwiz UI ?

Root phone and install CWM
Download the relevant mod from:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1923876
Copy the zip to phone internal or external memory
Boot to recovery mode and select flash the zip file
Restart phone


do i need to flash any custom rom to enable this feature or just able to use it with rooted stock rom?

Root AND Deodexed. Odex is a type of file in the ROM. Most custom roms remove the odex file so it's "de-" odexed. This allows theming IINM.

A bit of hanging out at xda and xda university is very enlightening.

ok thanks. im learning something new here. i can see in my system/app there are few with .odex which means im not on deodexed rom right?

Yes, you are on an "odexed" rom ie usually stock. You can also flash stock, rooted, deodexed like mine. Go xda N2 forums and find the thread from user i9000.

ok thanks a lot. checking it out now.

Go for Perseus v31.2. Real gooding for battery life.
*
QUOTE
easy
1. try perseus or redpill, you won't go wrong with this top 2 choices. i personally am on perseus 31.2 (IIRC)
2. try out the ROM as it is pretty nicely themed with the main mods in place such as MW control, symbols on keyboard, goomanager


thx. will try it. Should i wipe data before flashing?

backup everything on TiBackupPro
then
do a nandroid backup using CWM
then
Wipe data
Wipe Cache
Wipe Batt stats
Wipe Dalvik

(i always do this when jumping ROMs)

then only flash ROM, wait for restart then
wipe cache, BS and Dalvik

then flash Kernel

might be overdoing but i'm just paranoid icon_rolleyes.gif

nice. ill follow your guide since u got no problem with it.

when u said backup everything using TBpro, do u really mean everything or just apps that i wish to keep?
