What do you need for your Galaxy Note?

For me it's simple. Just get any simple or mini XXLSZ DEODEX + root it with Philz + your favorite theme.

With this you have stable version, good performance, acceptable battery life and look nice for daily usage.


Black and white...

Good performance score...







19 hours become normal... more than enough.

Long battery life...

Others you might want to consider
1. Eybee XXLSZ base
2. Eybee Bootloader
3. Mod 1 + Mod 2 +Mod 3 in a file

ThaiDai Small v1.1+Dark Mini Theme+Eybee Tweak+CrossBreeder

The best setup I have for now. GT-N7000XXLSZ. XXLSZ is a Germany version.

ThaiDai Small v1.1 + Dark Mini Theme + Eybee Tweak + CrossBreeder (NEW!)


Simple. Stable. Fast. Smooth. Good Battery Life.




Low memory usage after Eybee Tweak.
Minimum running services....

NEW!

Adding CrossBreeder. TQ Eybee for the suggestion and link.

Download it here:
CrossBreeder_2.26.13.zip and CrossBreeder_Uninstall.zip

How to Install it?
-Flash it via CWM.
-Flash CrossBreeder_Uninstall if you had install any before.

Before  CrossBreeder: 7581

Since we can't measure how fast before and after the changes, I'm using Antutu for that. Basically both FAST!


Getting FASTER!

Frankly speaking...internet related apps do load faster.

What it does?
  • Cool new feature. Neat Adblock. No more ugly 'Page not found' errors in your pages instead of your ads.
  • More memory utilization
  • Memory utilisation less than halved.
  • DNS related improvements. 
  • Haveged logic improvements. 
  • Rate of change of entropy logic added. 
  • UI more snappy. 
  • Changes to auto start-up logic. 
  • Tether fix and boost
How they do it?
1. It's a big new feature, removal of DNS lag
2. Change wakeup threshold kernel parameters so read blocks are released instantly and write blocks remain as we have an external entropy generator.
3. Modulate OS entropy levels for lag reduction ala Seeder
4. Remove /dev/random as it's blocking
5. Frandom support

Android sliding area and Apex Launcher

Do you know why I always keep my home screen below area blank. 2 blank rows. It's to make sure I have no problem sliding left and right without accidently pressing an app.

I add sliding UP will open my application drawer. It's an additional action and the setting available in Apex Launcher. So you could quickly access your application drawer.

 2 blank rows in both home screen...page 1 and 2

Set Swipe UP and Swipe DOWN action setting here....

Another Apex Launcher setting that I like. Lock the desktop. This will prevent you from accidently removed/change you home screen apps list.

Happy configuring your home screen....and practically for daily usage :)

Non-stop using the phone

After 7 hours and 2 hours screen...

 Good battery life....
After 15hours and near 2 hours screen..

After 17hours and 3hours screen.. Hit 3 hours screen is good enough..

With the performance and this battery life... I'm more than happy... :)

Might add a few mod that I used only.... DO NOT add mod that you did not use or seldom use it. It might lag your phone.

Do not enable Weather if the APK have been removed! You might have problem in Lock Screen.
