Battery % for Stock N7000DXLC2 (ODEX)

If you feel tired (just like me) of moving from Menu Settings > About > Status to look for current battery percentage in number, you can download and load my cooking battery %.

Why can't Google make this as and option in the settings? Display % [Y/N]

Just cook my own battery percentage for my Galaxy Note N7000DXLC2 since I can't find any in XDA.


Download ODEX-DXLC2-battery.zip and load it via Recovery (CWM). DONE. You will have battery percentage and Roboto FONT as a bonus :)

ODEX-DXLC2-battery.zip on Google Docs


You can cook your favorite theme here

If you just wonder what I'm doing with my Kernel. You may download SpeedMod here. SpeedMod available in TAR format for Mobile ODIN and ZIP format for CWM recovery. I prefer TAR and load via Mobile Odin.

SpeedMod smooth and stabe. Balance of battery usage and performance.

Google+ problem with DEODEX

Seems like Google+ having problem in the DEODEX mode. You have to be ODEX to make it run smoothly. I have expericence a few force close (FC) when using Google+ with Auto Upload on my DEODEX mode.

If you plan to root your Galaxy Note and using Google+, stay ODEX.

What should I have

If you would like to ROOT you Galaxy Note or Install custom ROM, my advice you should have an external storage to keep your kernel or software handy and fast access.



Look what I have...That why I can flash any time and I can recover it without worry..

How about you? Crash on dropdown? Firmware/Kernel version?

My Steps:
1. Install DEODEX XXLC1 from asi9000
2. Install CF-Root + CWM
3. Install ICS Domination v1.1
4. Install SpeedMod K1-5

I tried to re-install DEODEX XXLC1 from asi9000 and NO dropdown list problem.
Re-install ICS Domination v1.1. Dropdown list problem happen.
Anyway, this is a small problem..for now we can live with it.... (very minor problem)

Confirm:
-Its ICE CREAM SANDWICH DOMINATION v1.1 bugs

Solution:
-For now we have to wait for JKay and ICS Domination update for XXLC1

Friday, March 23, 2012

ICE CREAM SANDWICH DOMINATION v1.1

Confirm you may load ICE CREAM SANDWICH DOMINATION v1.1 on your DEODEX XXLC1.

You can use asi9000 DEODEX XXLC1 to load ICS DOMINATION

Moving from ODEX+ROOTED to DEODEX+ROOTED

Would like to move from ODEX+ROOTED XXLC1 to DEODEX+ROOTED XXLC1 and keep all your apps and data?

This is how to do it.

1. You need to have Mobile Odin Pro
2. Download this DEODEX XXLC1 and extract the file
3. Copy "CODE_N7000XXLC1_ROOT_DEODEX_BL.tar.md5" into your phone
4. Run Mobile Odin Pro
Select "CODE_N7000XXLC1_ROOT_DEODEX_BL.tar.md5" for "System" and "Hidden" as image above.

Un-check "Enable EverRoot" since you already rooted and CWM.
**Maybe we need to check it to keep CWM. Haven't tested.

5. Click [Flash firmware]. System will restart and DEODEX XXLC1 will be installed.
6. DONE

You are DEODEX XXLC1.

How to make sure I'm DEODEX?
You don't have .ODEX file inside you "System/App" folder.


PRO and CONS

DEODEX lets you to modify the system, especially THEME
Developers most of the time choose DEODEX rom for their custom rom
DEODEX will allow you to modify APK file

ODEX files quickly build dalvik cache. Shorter boot time
DEODEX take longer time for the first time boot time. Not after that
DEODEX you could patch your RTL. Mean you could read ARABIC on GNote


For a casual user like me, the main implication is in theming possibilities. Themes for android come in APKs too, and if you want to modify any of those, you should always choose a dedoexed custom ROM.

Continue reading here

Edited:
Just notice CWM is gone. You need to reload CF-Root-SGN_XX_OXA_LC1-v5.3-CWM5.zip via Mobile ODIN
After that you will get back your SuperSu and CWM

DONE!

Note:
All is related to XXLC1. Do not interchange it from other version.

How to install XXLC1 or DXLC2 and ROOTED

Would like to have your Galaxy Note installed with pre-rooted ROM? You may installed it using PC ODIN without to worry about yellow triangle or binary counter.

Your stock rom is ODEX. Means this ROM just like your orignal ROM but ROOTED. It can be done via PC ODIN now. All original apps still intact no worry. Just like new.

What to do?
1.
Download ODEX PRE ROOTED N7000XXLC1 (Open Europe)
Download ODEX PRE ROOTED N7000DXLC2 (Malaysia) (**NEW**)

2. RUN PC ODIN and fill in all the required files
PIT and all 3 files will FULL WIPE. You will have clean and fresh phone. I like this. A fresh phone and install back my favorite apps

If you hate to install new apps. Try this. Load PDA only for NO-WIPE. Do this if you are currently on the same firmware version. Stock XXLC1.

3. At the end of the process you will have ODEX + ROOT.


Note:
-If bootloop (In case you are coming from ICS). Reboot recovery and flash data, cache and dalvik.

Do you need CWM? What is CWM?
CWM is a mode where you could do system backup and flash custom ROM.

TODO.
1. Download Mobile ODIN
2. Download CF-Root-SGN_XX_OXA_LC1-v5.3-CWM5.zip
3. Load CF-Root kernel using Mobile Odin
4. DONE


At the end of this process you should have ODEX XXLC1 + Root + CWM

Note:
You might need to install SuperSu and CWM Manually.

 BONUS. Would like to have battery percentage display on the status bar?
1. Download this from my dropbox
2. Copy  it into your internal storage
3. Reboot recovery
4. Flash the ZIP file via recovery
5. DONE

At the end of the process you will have battery percentage displayed. You don't have to go thru Setting>About>Status anymore to view battery percentage.

This is far better than using widget. Save your battery.
