Galaxy Note Android 4.0.3 firmware N7000XXLPY may brick your phone as i mentioned eariler, and now the bug is confirmed by Android. besides, the second leaked official ZSLPF for the Asian region is affected

reference: Galaxy Note ICS XXLPY phone bricks - issues


according to Ken Sumrall, an senior engineer from Android, this is a known bug which can damage your phone

if you issued an mmc erase command, it could screw up the data structures in the chip

the emmc chip can lockup after an erase command is given. Not every time, but often enough. Usually, the device can reboot after this, but then lockup during the boot process. Very rarely, it can lockup even before fastboot is loaded......

after an emmc erase command, it could leave the internal data structures of the emmc chip in a bad state that cause the chip to lock up when a particular sector was accessed.

in other words, if you do a wipe or reformat to the partitions on these affected firmware, you have a chance to get your phone unbootable or bricked


and as i suggested, stay away from the ICS roms until the problem is solved finally

you may take a look at my advice posted couple of days ago about this: Galaxy Note ICS XXLPY phone bricks - advice

UPDATE: Galaxy Note official ICS ZSLPF and XXLPY confirmed unsafe


the first Samsung official Android 4.0.3 ICS Chinese rom ZSLPF for SGN just leaked for the Asia region like Hong Kong and Taiwan. no premium suite is included

UPDATE: Galaxy Note Sony Bravia Engine ICS mod available

the Sony Bravia Engine mod for Samsung Galaxy Note Android 4.0.3 ICS will be available soon

sorry mates, i thought i have done it already... before my note bricked

this is a modded Samsung ICS touchwiz launcher in tablet mode or tabletui for the Galaxy Note based on the leaked Chinese I9220 ZCLP6 Android 4.0.3 rom. all modifications were baesd on original Samsung files so it is a pure stock SGN TW launcher tablet mode experience in 212 dpi

i started this mod for an very attractive US$680 bounty for AT&T SGH-I717 initially, but my phone was not repaired yet and thus missed the chance to win the bounty. actually it is no fun to work with the smali files at all, so i stopped modding it after finishing the navbar part as the final piece of the puzzle

below are some of the screenshots

twlauncher untouched with 240 dpi	default ICS power off confirmation
stock ICS twlauncher menu	navbar added with 212 dpi
SPlanner widget works with Samsung TwLauncher (looks a bit weird atm)	popup menu for settings in navbar
settings in split mode
settings popup menu in landscape mode
SMemo widget running properly with Samsung TwLauncher

another beta Android ICS 4.0.3 rom leaked for I9220, aka the Chinese version of Galaxy Note N7000. this LP5 kernel detects the CPU frequency at 1400 MHz correctly when installed on the SGN N7000, unlike the previous beta that run at 1200 MHz only

it is reported that ZCLP5 is superior to the first beta ZCLP1 in many aspects, with the exception that the camera doesnt work properly

some screenshots from a Chinese forum:





below is a part of the build.prop:
ro.build.id=IML74K
ro.build.display.id=IML74K.ZCLP5
ro.build.version.incremental=ZCLP5
ro.build.version.sdk=15
ro.build.version.codename=REL
ro.build.version.release=4.0.3
ro.build.date=Mon Mar 26 23:37:13 KST 2012


although the I9220ZCLP5 is not targeted for N7000, it can be flashed on our Samsung Galaxy Note. pay attention when you are going to flash it on N7000 since it may brick your SGN if incompatible images are flashed. this is because, although the I9220 is very similar to the N7000, there are some differences in hardware, design and so forth actually. flashing an incorrect or incompatible rom is one of the main reasons for bricking your phone in general.

fortunately, Chainfire, an active member on the XDA developer forum, repacked the rom for N7000 and provided a guide to install it with details. interested parties can take a look at this post for more details. of course, for those advanced users, it wont be difficult to put it on your SGN

the latest news (or rumor) about the official release date for Android ICS on Samsung Galaxy S2 is 15 March, according to various sources from Samsung Israel

on the other hand, Samsung HK has published the latest version of I9100 user manual for ICS on their website already, although no screenshots from ICS is included


User Manual (ICS) in both English and Traditional Chinese:


you can download it here: User Manual (ICS)


below are some screenshots of the manual, together with the revision dated 03/2012

personally, i don prefer to sort chinese contacts by pinyin, so ...

it's a simple way to show chinese contacts after english one, although it's a bit tricky

to do it, just add a chinese character of your choice (non-printable or chinese symbols) in front of the contact name in chinese, and now they will appear after the letter "Z"

just found some articles/reviews talking about my sms mod and loop device mod. i am really appreciated
