I would say yes but don't want to give wrong info. But i'm sure you can just download the apks of those sound mod and install them. They should be around the threads here or playstore.

To instill the SnowJB the instructions say to factory reset and was wondering if this will erase all my music. It's not a big problem since I can put it back on after flashing the ROM. Sorry if its a obvious question i'm still new to this stuff.

Do I really have to worry about battery temperature? My battery gets up to like 33C/92F sometimes. I don't know about batteries, but that seems high. What is a Lithium-ion battery capable of handling?

Probably a stupid question, but can you damage, or wear out the internal memory by flashing the phone over and over? I think I've flashed over 20-30 times by now, I'm just wondering if I'm running the risk of causing damage by overflashing. Thanks.

I would suspect that the internal memory would have the same typical lifespan of any other form of flash memory. I have heard varying degrees of expected life - but you will probably have another phone before you get to that point.

It might have an adverse effect on your ability to score with the opposite sex. During your next night of bar-hopping or date night with your significant other, try explaining the purpose and the reason for the need to flash frequently and watch most women disappear. Such technical intricacies about custom ROMS, kernels and mods are like kryptonite to them.

It shouldn't cause any problems.
The devs would have had problems already had it been the case.
I've been following the posts of the new and older ICS roms and just have a few general ?'s regarding flashing a new rom.. I have been using Ineffabilis v1.3 for quite a while now and am completly satisfied with its performance but am itching to try another Rom. Seems like there's good and bad about both ICS and GB but seems its a PITA to have to relock the bootloader in order to get new radios or what not..this is where i get lost..i'm not new to flashing roms or kernels (had an Incredible and flashed roms like crazy) i just don't understand anything in regards to what the requirements are for ICS vs GB. I'd hate to brick my phone!! Any insight would be greatly appreciated.. THANK YOU in advance!!
I was in the same boat because I had never flashed an RUU before. Head over to Scott's ROMs and in his forums he has a step by step process laid out. I went through that after reading up on everything multiple times and it went fine. Back up everything you want from the phone, internal and external sd cards, to your PC BEFORE flashing the RUU. They will be wiped by the process.
Good luck and have fun.
Thanks for the info..ill definitely check it out!!

New RUU ICS vs GB
I will chime in and say that it is definitely worth it. As said before in the CleanROM thread Scott has a very detailed step by step guide. Just a few pointers before you jump in.
1) make sure you have a card reader for your computer that you can connect your removable micro-SD card to. Trust me, if you screw up somewhere in the process, having a reliable way to access the SD card is a life saver.
2) before flashing always wipe/factory reset 3 times, some think it is overkill, but if you end up with some odd glitch or bug when you just wiped once, you will most likely have to wipe and flash again to get rid of the bug...so of course you are actually saving time and hassle by just doing it 3 times in the first place.
3) make sure your battery is full or almost full before you start the process, you will avoid many problems by not having your phone battery die in the middle of a flash or update.
4) read, read and read again all the information and the instructions on what you are going to be doing, then make sure you understand and are comfortable Before you actually start. Reading through the forums and knowing beforehand what others have experienced, and the fixes, will make your life 100% better while you play with your phone.
All that said, the new RUU is awesome, better radio reception, better battery life for most (once you drain and recharge a few times), and ICS is very cool on the Rezound. Happy flashing people and hope you like ICS as much as I do.

1. I'm a newb.
2. I've tried to research a good amount on my own.
I know that much customization will require root as a starting point. I'm not sure I want to run a custom rom or not yet as there doesn't seem to be much of a benefit at this current time. The overclocking interests me a bit.. because, why not? I guess that's my question. With using Dag's root and overclock, are there any stability issues at all? Other issues I might run in to? I just want to be positive of what I'm doing before I mess anything up. Should I run a backup of some sort or are roots relatively harmless?
Thanks in advance.
If you do a backup before you do anything its dam near impossible to brick your phone.
Make sure you understand what your doing before you do it not just do it because someone said it works.
Rooting releases your phone as it should be.

Overclocking kills battery life. Theres the risk of failing the rooting process too(doubt that will happen...). Flashing also increases flash counter and voiding warranty(go learn how to reset it)
flashing a lot damages internal memory also(you will prolly notice it after 1.5 yrs)
So are we recommending against doing this just for the sake of overclocking? or..
Sorry like you guys said I don't want to do it just to do it, want to be sure I'm doing this for a reason. If nothing else I can remove bloatware after root, right?

I ran OC and honestly I can live with out it. Not worth the battery killing any faster. This thing is fast out of box, rooting and removing bloats will make it faster. Using a superscript takes away any other lag issue that I had with keyboard, touch screen responsiveness etc. My advice, don't OC.

Rooted. It's amazing how much easier that was than the equivalent process with Wp7 (getting a student dev account free was a pain in the ass). So I'm pretty sure I have Dag's kernel (pda.tar) uploaded. I want to try out holo's (don't see why not). I thought I could've just substituted his for Dag's initially, but couldn't figure out how. There was only one pda.tar file available and I saved both kernels in the same folder. It's really just the boot.img file that you're flashing, isn't it? I might not know what I'm talking about so rather than continuing if someone could just let me know how to update with holo's.

+1. Flashing does degrade non-volatile memory over time. Eeproms can't handle being written to over and over and over. Things like USB drives get around this by writting files non-contiguously to random blocks/sectors (and by using other methods), and keeping a table of blocks that have gone bad. So you can write a 1 mb file over and over and it isn't writing it to the first meg on the drive, it is going in pieces all over the place, randomly each time. If it writes a block and that doesn't pass a checksum test, it will write the block again to another area and mark the block as bad so it never writes to it again.
Of course this isn't great for performance on a USB drive, but that is why this IS a problem on something like the OS partition of a phone. There you can't write randomly, you need contiguous files for performance, so each time you flash a new rom you are writing to the same memory space every time. Eventually you wear it out and there is no "bad block" table to help.

I saw in NilsP's rom thread that people have been working on clockwork mod recovery to see and get it working. I read that with a file copy and an advanced setting you can get backups to work. The main problem being the infamous charging bug.
Here is what is posted in that thread.
punman said:
I wasn't aware of this but when you plug the phone in, it boots what looks like a mini-recovery kernel. I suspect something with this isn't supporting the battery charge. I am going to flash back to Amon Ra and see what the differences are.
Just select "backup to external SD card" in ROM Manager Settings. You might have to enable "advanced settings" to get the option.

NilsP said:
OK here is where I am as memories come back.
If you select backup to external and set progress off it does not actually turn off progress unless you copy the hideprogress file from internal to external. The bad part is the backup hangs if you don't copy the file.
When you select install ROM from SD Card it shows what is on the internal card to select not the external.
I have not tried a restore yet but I remember if you do it from RM it deletes the boot (kernel) but can't restore it due to s-on. Gonna test that in a minute.
EDIT: Backup and restore worked fine after copying the hideprogress file
EDIT: Just had to select internal from the menu when selecting install ROM from SD Card in RM

Yep. I recovered my original GB after using an early CleanROM ICSE ROM. I think I used Scott's CleanFlash tool to flash back the correct kernel for GB.
All my recoveries have backed up flawlessly since, but I am currently only running stock rooted. Haven't tried recovering any ICS backups.

I think I mentioned earlier that I had no issues charging. But I am also not saying that Amon Ra is bad. Just that I have a preference and that I know how to handle/avoid the pitfalls.
Interestingly, there were many in the DInc threads who didn't like CWM or ROM Manager, but no one there made snarky comments about personal choice... (not talking about you, snowride)
I think any CWM thread will just devolve like a Sense thread will. At least in the Rezound forums.

Hey guys I'm pretty new and I'm sorry if this question is super noobish but I've just starting reading threads about custom modems and I was wondering what would be the benefit of a modem change?

Possibly better signal and battery life, but it could also make it worst. Best bet is to try the new one and see if it helps if not just go back to the old one. Or if you're signal is great then just stay where you are at.

I would have to agree with kintwofan, I have seen more bad than good come from swapping the modem. A friend of mine thought it might be a good idea to swap the modem on the phone and to say the least he spent the better part of an hour restoring and re-rooting his phone. As the person above had mentioned I would just stick with what you’re working with assuming its not causing you any issues. Take some time to familiarize yourself with everything before you just try to jump in and customize everything on your phone. You will save yourself a lot of heartache.

Why would he reroot after changing a modem? All you have to do is flash the old modern. It's very easy to swap between the two

He tried to flash the old modem and still was having issues getting any service/radio, so he revert back to the stock rom and re rooted the phone had no issues.
I don't know about the note II but with the galaxy s2 different modems worked better in certain areas of the US. You had to flash several modems and test to see which one gave you the best data speeds.

Gotcha, kind of strange usually you can just flash back to your old modem, but that's the risk of this game we play

We have 2 modems, and from everything I've read, no one has seen any real difference between the two. Given the patch size, I can't imagine it was more than just a little fine tuning and a version change.
Thanks guys. Good to know.
