I'm going to give a quick run down of my situation and what I have done and I would just like to get some understanding or guide to what the heck I'm doing different then everyone else.. and I have lots of knowledge in technology and I'v been playing around with phones for 14 years now.. So here's the deal.
I have 2 Sony Xperia X10a. - one from Rogers the other from Fido.. Who give's a crap.. OK next.
I flashed both phones with FlashTool 3.0.0 -
Rom - X10a_2.1update1_r2.1.A.0.435_Generic.ftf
Root IT / Reboot
Xrecovery Install. - I select the first one , so the one w/out GB in the name.
Copy Files to SD Card for GB Flash..Files I copy are..
" X10x.3.0.1.G.0.75.EWJET.xKernel.GB.x2.3ex.zip "
" ewX.xKernel.gb.X3.1f.zip "
I also have a folder "Addons" that I have a couple things like.. " SEMC.Calculator.zip & "SEMC.Gmail.Gtalk.Email.zip" ..so on..
I then Reboot the phone into Xrecovery...
1 - Wipe user data
2 - clear cache
3 - advanced options - clear cache again..
4 - Install Custom Zip....Select " X10x.3.0.1.G.0.75.EWJET.xKernel.GB.x2.3ex.zip "... Done
5 - Reboot Via XRecovery and Remove battery Instantly
6 - Flash via FlashTool - X10i_3.0.1.G.0.75_only kernel_baseband.ftf
7 - Unplug / Remove battery . Wait 10 Seconds.. Boot phone.
8 - Phones Booted.. My SD Card already was in 2 FAT32 Partitions. One 14GB one 1GB..
9 - Proceed to Link2SD App..Start it.. Reboot Phone..
10- Selected and Linked Apps in Link2SD .. Rebooted Phone..
11 - Started Link2SD ...go to " More " .. Selected link dalvik-cache files... Rebooted Phone
12 - Used File Explorer .. went to SDCard.. if there is a Scriptz folder Delete it.. there was no scriptz folder..
13 - Rebooted Phone.. Enter in Xrecovery mode.. Advanced options .. "Wipe dalvik cache"
14 - Install Custom Zip..Select " ewX.xKernel.gb.X3.1f.zip "... Done...
15 - Rebooted Via Xrecovery
16 - Started Link2SD... go to " More " .. Select "Link dalvik-cache files" again and then "Market Fix"
17 - Rebooted Phone again.
18 - Used phone.. Setup Google Accounts / Email / Facebook / A few apps / synced picasa photos... Rebooted
Done Install..
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
19 - Ran Quadrant Standard Benchmark .. Free From Market.. Only Scored 850
20 - Rebooted.. and then Installed SetCPU.. Few $ from Market....When I started SetCPU I selected " Show Other Frequency Sets " and Selected
Custom Frequency Reads from:
/sdcard/setcpu.txt
/system/sd/setcpu.txt
/data/local/setcpu
Sort Speeds in kHz, Separated by comma, from lowest to highest.
21 - Allowed Root Access.. and I did not Touch one setting in SetCPU. I went to advanced and selected "Apply"
22 - I then went to INFO in SetCPU .. If I run a Short Bench.. I score between 220 - 250.. avg sometimes it spikes.. Long Bench is 519..
23 - Rebooted .. Ran Quadrant again I am only scoring max 1080ish.. Lowest I have seen is 800.. It is all over the place.. and no where close to 1750 that erik is getting..
24 - I also Ran LINPACK and my max on a single thread was 38 .. and on multi-thread it was 32...
I don't understand What I am missing or doing wrong.. Maybe I have spent too much time on it in the past few days flashing and re flashing and yada yada that i'm just in need of a good break and then go back at it.. but my roomie who has the other X10 that I converted her to from the Iphone is also doing the same where it's not scoring to great..
I also am running into issues on her phone where it's having lots of force closes and freezing....I was just doing a quad benchmark on it now and it only scored 600??? I did the exact same.. back to flashing 2.1.. all the exact steps I have taken on my phone.. the only difference is she only has a 2gb sd card so I have not installed Link2SD on her phone.. But I have been told that should not make too much of a difference.. have i been mislead? Please assist. I am VERY lost and starting to get cheesed .. I just want what Erick has LOL But Really I converted her from Apple to Droid because she used my phone when I had one of Erick's first GB Roms and it was running fast.. she was very impressed and happy..
.. OK As I was typing this out I'm playing around with the phones and I just got a new msg on BOTH phones remember one is Link2SD one is Not.. " Could not read SetCPU Custom Config. Reverting to Defaults. Is your SDCard unmounted from the PC? .. Both phones are not plugged in .. I did a remount in storage settings.. Same error.. But If I do a device selection again.. it reads the SD Card SetCPU.txt files.. WOW . I am so confused. PLEASE ASSIST!!!!
I really hope there is enough information here.. ask me for anything or to do anything on it and i'll send it and give it a shot ! Thanks in advanced everyone! and thanks again Erick for the sick ROM!
Wow.. Another Patch! Updating to 3.3f.zip.. Will report back if any change in performance! no change.. now I just have the Sony Setup Menu start everytime my phone boots.. if i clear advanced cache in xrecovery all my sync accounts get deleted.. and I also had to downgrade my market because it was just crashing.. I also have problems with swype .. it keeps crashing in chomp.l never had problems like that until 3.3f update. ... thou I just talked to Janessa and she said her phone is groovy like the 70's.. LOL I don't understand.. She was having the problems...now I am! LOL Let's get some input going! Thanks again Everyone! AKA ERICKWILL!!
Thanks again erick!!
bump?
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
Hey man, don't bother with scores and numbers.
Flash the patch, let it settle for some hours and use it.
I just flashed the new 3.7 patch few minutes ago and waiting for it to settle.
I didn't read the EDIT.
My x10i got really slow booting and annoying when It gets too low space in sdcard.
Take a look at her sdcard.
For the FC's, I often have them when I flash a new patch. After I done everything in link2sd (relink, reboot, etc), I reboot again and fix permissions at xrecovery. Them I reinstall all apps that are FC using the link2sd interface.
As I said, I just patched to 3.7f and got two FC at launcher startup. This time was App Brain Market and Battery Widget Pro. Reinstalled them using the option "reinstall" inside link2sd and everything is OK now.
Yesterday I patched to 3.3 and got a different FC from today. Total Recall was FC at startup, them I went to link2sd and reinstalled it. It's working fine since them.
any error flashing the 3.7f patch? mine says error at line 12
I had no erros here.
My x10 was running the lastest rom with 3.3f.
Deleted scriptz folder, rebooted, cleaned dalvik cache and flashed.
Booted, went to link2sd, reboot again for mount the 2nd partition.
Booted again, link2sd, relinked dalvik, reboot.
Fixed permissions, reboot. Reinstalled 2 apps that were fc and its stable for now.
i cannot find the scriptz folder on my sdcard? ??!
Which file explorer are you using? I think if you can't see it's because it doesn't exist.
To be sure, connect your phone using USB cable and enable USB mounting to access sdcard from your PC. If you still can't see this way, it surely does not exist in your sdcard.
Go to xrecovery, wipe dalvik cache and flash the patch.
no error.. mm if u did I think u need to start all over from 2.1 again..
ok trying to flash 2.1 again.. still cant see it through my pc.. tnxx
still a fail T_T... there is still no scriptz folder.. and still with the same error flashing 3.7f patch woo

Get all the files you need for the 2.1 flash and the baseband fix if you need for 2.1 flash from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=920746 .. the links are in the first post. and one again also remember to use the "Flash" button in flashtool to flash the TFT files. there is no other way to do this but I am just assuming maybe you are flashing custom zips via xrecovery...I hope this helps.. I'm going to have time this week to do a remake of the video on Ericks Firmware install.. It's ok but it's assuming to much little steps.
This is a more detailed edited version of how to install the Resurrection ROM by westcrip...
as have seen too many users that seem to be skipping parts or confused of the installation.
This is also for users like myself, who just started on this site and can't post on Development side to find their answers.
BACKUP your apps of course...but DO NOT backup system data.Repeat!! DO NOT BACKUP SYSTEM DATA. Restoring system data can give you some problems because if you don't know what you're doing, can accidentally replace something from the fixes that screws things up!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PART-1
Rom Installation (you MUST follow these steps! )
**Go to recovery mode( Vol UP + Power+ Home and hold until the Samsung Galaxy screen comes on)
1- Wipe data / Factory reset then (can Wipe cache partition or go straight to)
Install ResurrectionV1.1_official_remix_ics_4.0.3_XXLPE_FULL-WiPE.zip
*if you did not Wipe cache, can go straight to install from cache...
but if you Wiped cache then you go to install from external SD card and install 1.0_CWM.zip (this will be touch version)...
then choose - install zip from sdcard. - choose zip from sdcard. Scroll down to Download folder and select ResurrectionV1.1_official_remix_ics_4.0.3_XXLPE_FULL-WiPE.zip.
Please wait a moment.
2-Install gapps_for_remix_v1.1.zip
3-Install gapps_fixer.zip then go back and go to Advanced.
4-Wipe dalvik cache (required)
and Fix permissions and go back to
5-Reboot system
(at this stage it may take a while for first bootup, because we have wiped cache. It needs to rebuild it, so don`t panic.
It may take a while *average around 3-5min before getting to Installing applications screen)
At this stage, boot to system and configure the phone (change language settings, etc).
When finished, again reboot into recovery and follow PART-2
PART-2 (required)
This part it's mandatory here are contained the language, theme, AOSP apps and the T9 dialer if you want it...
or use default. ONLY install one of these:
*note: you're in regular CWM using up and down volue + power button to enter.
If you want the touch - reinstall it like before.
1.- Install the SMSfixupdate-afterboot+T9 Dialler.zip
or
SMSfixupdate-afterboot+default remix dialler.zip
go back
2.- Reboot into system
After finishing the boot it's highly probably that you receive a force close from android phone.
It's normal and it's the only FC that you should get.
Enjoy!
**There is a RAM Manager Fix (When you open the Task Manager app, there's a section called RAM and a button to Clear Memory.
The fix enables that button again... for those not working).
Here is a mirror link for this and other files: RAM Manager Fix and others
PART-3 (optional)
*This can apply to many other files you want to flash.
If you want to install Siyah kernel:
Place Siyah-v3.0rc4-CWM.zip (or whichever version you're using) in the root of internal SDcard memory ("download" folder) and go to recovery mode (Vol Up + Power + Home).
Go to Install zip from SDCard... and select it.
Yes and install... Fix permissions... Reboot.
**battery issues with Siyah?
go to recovery
wipe dalvik
go to "kernel specific options" to reset them or other performance tweaks.
reset kernal
fix permission
reboot
**No more video player?
Get the VideoPlayer.apk file (*have to do a search for it now until I find another working link to it)
and copy it to system/app using something like Root Explorer
Reboot
Hope this helps. I'll edit this when I have time (usually busy with other projects).
*Version 1.2 is out now Check it here.
Good job
Tho make sure you spend a bit of time regularly checking the thread (depending on how much action the thread gets, obviously). Once you make threads like these people invariably ask questions & it's best if the person who detailed the method answers most of them.
Thank you sir.
I will give as much time as I can on this, when questions come up... and I'll be sure to keep up with bugs going on on original thread... though they will be updating this ROM soon to 4.0.4.
When that happens, guess will have to update this lol.
(oh no, what have I gotten myself into )
Language problem
Hello!
Thanks for the thread, really useful for noobs needing help to fix some problems.
I am a noob... and I have a problem.
Everything is working fine, battery is ok, no fc... but language seems to be messed up, I get my language (spanish) in almost all settings and menus, but dialer is invariably in english. Some contacts dialogs show this behaviour too.
Thank you very much in advance!
Thanx a lot, really useful...cant wait for 1.2
SMSafter-reboot is the only fix i needed to fix my dialer fcs issue, after a dalvik cache clean and permission fixing. That was the only way, if some1 has same issue.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA
Hi Miguel. The ROM is mostly for English and some language settings are off here and there. Mine too shows Chinese characters in some parts. I think this has to do with where the phone is originally from.
Version 1.2 will be out soon (based on 4.0.4) and should have more bugs fixed. I will see if there's anything can be done to help you with Spanish settings.
*glad it's helpful for you guys.
Thanks for a good simple guide.... it is getting pretty difficult to find answers with so many posts in the main thread.
Will you be making a similar step by step guide for ver 1.2 that should be out soon?
If it is needed I will. Will have to wait for it to come out and see if instructions changed. The process will be easier (after what westcrip said), not needing to add gapps fix, etc now I think.
Anyways, if I think needs more detail for newer users, I'll add a new thread for it and post a link here to it too.
Which dialler
I'm a true noob and I'm rooted with CWM installed and I'm giving serious consideration to this rom. My only question at this point is what are the differences btw the 2 diallers and do most folks prefer one over the other?
Hi tlmacson. It's a very good fast and smooth rom with good support. 1 dialer gives you T9 abilities... which means when you start dialing some number, it shows you contact(s) that much those numbers.
But there are some bugs in it not working for some, so recommended to install the default one and add some other app that does the same, or install T9 on after the default.
PS
If you want to give this ROM a try... the new 1.2 version will be out any moment which should have easier installation with hopefully less bugs ^^
I have been using it for a few weeks now. It has run really smooth, the only bugs are very small and do not effect the use of it daily.
I had a few problems with the dialler, so I installed exDialler. I actually prefer it, it has t9 searching and can be skinned to look like ics dialler.
I will definatly give ver 1.2 of the rom a try too.
Yes, that's the 3rd party app people like for T9 use: exDialer
It also allows you to give it black theme.
HELP!
Cyber i'm wondering if you did test the 1.2 PRO resurrection I want to upgrade to it but i don't know if it is a FULL WIPE or not because westscript didn't mention it also there are no GAPPS and FIXER within the thread can you please confirm for me this?
I think that I may just do that since I'm not having any real issues with the leaked "stock" XXLPQ. I appreciate your advice and dialer explanation.
nHorus - For v1.2 it works better if you do a full wipe Do a full wipe(factory reset+cache+dalvik cache), though you can try without it.. and just do the factory reset. Then install ROM and Siyah kernel and reboot to do initial setup. Then comeback to recovery mode and install navigation button fix and app themes, reboot.
Test
Thank you cyberboob.
I will try 1.2 and see how it goes, anyway I will install exDialer to fix my languages "problems" (it is not a dealbreaker but is disturbing seeing some dalogues in other language).
According to 1.2 changelog this version is promising.

thank you. i'll try without the wipes
Sorry.. a full wipe is needed again (or more bugs will be present).
Follow these steps:
Do a full wipe(factory reset+cache+dalvik cache)
Install the Main ROM
Install Siyah-v3.0.1-CWM.zip
Reboot
Do the initial setup of things
Go back to CWM and install navigation button fix
Reboot
Then go back to CWM and install app themes (there are some bugs, but if you want the black themes, then install classic first, then black)
Reboot
Some people have other issues after, but see how this goes.
I would change the DPI settings to 184 or 210 for everything to work fine from market apps.
*Also westcrip will post a new fix update for some new bugs reported by some users.

I know I'm showing my "noobness" but I thought that the kernel was part of the ROM; so how do I install the kernel after the ROM?
Same way you installed the main ROM.. go into recovery mode and select the folder you placed it in (usually internal sd card "download" folder) and flash it "yes". Fix permissions if want and reboot. Same with anything else you need to flash/CWM after/before.
Read First: Thread created ONLY for Korean Galaxy Note (SHV-E160 S/K/L ver) users. ROOT, ROM or any developments posted here cannot be used for N7000 or I717 Galaxy note ver.
I am not responsible if you damaged or bricked your phone!! Use at your own risk!! I do not own nor created the developments posted here.
I created this thread to post the developments and support for our beloved Korean Galaxy Note as well as to compile the tutorials inside and outside XDA all in 1 thread.
Note: If you decide to share a recent development here, please specify/tag if applicable to all SHV models or specific model only (e.g, [e160 s/k/l] or [e160 S only]).
Basic Commands/terms:
1.)Download mode: Turn off the phone. When it’s completely turned off press [Volume down (-) + Home + Power]. Once you see the Korean text press Volume up (+).
2.) Recovery mode: Turn off the phone. When it’s completely turned off press [Volume up (+) + Volume down (-) + Home + Power]. You should see the recovery mode at the top of your LCD screen (either tegrak or clockworkmod recovery). To navigate, press Volume up or down and use the power button as your “enter/ok” button.
3.) ROOT – gaining admin access to your phone.
4.) Root File: Some were mislead by searching for a folder named “root”. “Root” is equivalent to /sdcard (not external sdcard or a folder named “root”). So when the instruction tells you to put a specific file to the root it means that you put it inside the /sdcard.
5.) Flash – the term “flash” in android’s world means “transfer”. When a guide tells you to “flash” partition, it implies that you transfer the contents to a partition (such as system, cache, data, boot, recovery etc…). There are different kinds of data you can flash such as recovery, rom, kernel etc. this can be done by using your PC/Laptop using ODIN for PC or Heimdall for mac or ROM Manager.
3.) Checking your Korean Galaxy note version- Korean galaxy notes have different versions and it depends with the Korean carrier. To check if you have either S/K/L go to settings > About phone. Also note your basedband version (UI24, UH24, F09 etc….).
Developments:
1.) Successful debrick of Korean Galaxy note. Thanks to darkspr1te and to the contributors. You can find his page here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1914359&page=10).
2.) ROOT- Before rooting your phone make sure you have upgraded to ICS 4.0.4. You can download Kies here (http://www.samsung.com/us/kies/) to upgrade or do it via phone by going to settings>about phone>system updates>check updates. Make sure your phone battery is at least over 50% . If you’re using a laptop, make sure the battery life is full or better plug it in. Don’t use a cheap cable. Please use the one you got from Samsung.
a) [e160 s/k/l] Root instructions by jairrab: (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1924535) I used this one to root my phone because it's easy to follow especially for root virgins. However, the instructions does not include the Clockworkmod recovery (CWM) installation. Hence, do this AFTER successfully installing the Tegrak Recovery:
I.) Download CWM Recovery (v6.0.1) cwm.tar here (https://www.dropbox.com/s/cyitd4ce3jq0zb4/cwm.tar)
II.) Put the downloaded file to the root of the phone (/sdcard)
III.) Follow the same method you used when you installed the Tegrak Recovery.
b) [e160L only] Root instructions by mycatisether: (http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1775015) found some useful info here (removing sms limit etc…) that are applicable to all Korean GN models.
3.) Post ROOT developments:
a.)BACK UP! After rooting your phone I advised that you do a NANDROID back up first (requiment: CWM recovery see 2.a in development section). It is a complete back-up of your phone. So anytime you can go back to your phone’s last condition. Do the following to make a nandroid back up using the CWM recovery.
I.) Flash CWM recovery
II.) Go to recovery mode
III.) Navigate using volume up or volume down and select “back up and restore” press power key to enter.
IV.) You should be in back up menu now. Navigate and select back up and hit the power button again. This will take awhile. Be patient.
V.) Once the back-up is done, navigate to “reboot system now” and hit the power button.
VI.) After reboot. Go to /sdcard and copy the clockworkmod folder to a safe place.
b.) Custom ROM:1.) [e160 s/k/l] CM9 Stable – Requirements: Rooted phone with CWM recovery (see 2.a under development section above)1.a) Download the following files and put inside the root (do not unzip)
CM9 ROM (https://www.dropbox.com/s/aaz0k19ddz0xytz/cm-9.1.0-quincyskt-KUKJIN-RC2.1.zip)
Front camera fix (https://www.dropbox.com/s/zqcjeegm6wn8vk2/old_note_front-cam_RC2.1.zip)
Google App for CM9 (https://www.dropbox.com/s/65703m0trd38gii/gapps.zip)
1.b) After copying the files in the root go to recovery mode (how to go to recovery mode? Read above).
1.c) In recovery mode select > “wipe data/factory reset” and select yes. > select “wipe cache partition” and select yes. > select advance > wipe dalvik and select yes.
1.d) After step 1.c STAY IN RECOVERY MODE and install the files you downloaded IN ORDER. Go to > “install zip from SD card” > 1st install CM9 ROM (cm-9.1.0-quincyskt-KUKJIN-RC2.1.zip) > 2nd install camera fix (old_note_front-cam_RC2.1.zip) > lastly, install Google app (gapps.zip).
1.e) Reboot and enjoy! Do not install the Korean keyboard! Or you can just uninstall it.
I personally use this CM9 ROM and it runs perfectly! I have no issues with the sms, battery, camera etc… All Korean bloatwares gone. No Korean keypad. Can send over 1000+ characters.
I really recommend the “Cobalt” theme as it made the CM9 even more smoother and you can download it here for free (https://play.google.com/store/apps/...h_result&rdid=com.dustinb.theme.cobalt&rdot=1) then go to settings>themes>select cobalt (ignore the message does not contain assets etc…).
If your SMS limit is not fixed. Download GO SMS Pro or Handcent SMS in google play store. Use it as your main messaging app. It will solve the problem.
Some have issues with their touchscreens. To solve this you can go to dialer and dial >*#2663# (no need to press the call button). Click “Touch key FW update” then reboot.
2.) Other ROMs – with some research and the help of the Koreans, Chinese and Vietnamese I was able to locate the following ROMs. Please note that I have not tested these ROMs, as such I cannot guarantee if they are working properly (however, darkspr1te told us the he will test some ROMs and provide feedback – just to prevent hard/soft brick). Some ROMs I found have instructions, some do not have. I’ll post my source and you can just use google translate and read the instructions from Koreans, Chinese and Vietnamese websites. PLEASE TAKE NOTE OF THE TAGGING I MADE. (E.G., IF IT's TAGGED WITH [S/K/L] IT MEANS IT’S COMPATIBLE TO ANY KOREAN GN (SHV E160]. IF IT'S TAGGED WITH [L ONLY], IT MEANS IT’S ONLY APPLICABLE TO E160L GN VER. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK!
a) [S/K/L] MIUI 2.8.3 Beta (http://pan.baidu.com/share/link?shareid=80764&uk=2063664816) – known 4G and battery problems. Translated source here (http://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&sl=auto&tl=en&u=http://search.matcl.com/b/imbeded/125842).

d) [S/K/L] Alpha1 ROM based on the stable CM9 above. I did not test it. Seems like icons were changed etc… You can download the ROM here ( still uploading to dropbox). See the translated original post here (http://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&sl=auto&tl=en&u=http://search.matcl.com/b/imbeded/126864) . Follow the same process when you installed the CM9 ROM above.

MORE TO COME... I will update the thread later.
I find the CM9 the best-cooked ROM for our SHVs to date. All issues were resolved in this ROM.
d.) Recommended apps for rooted phones (just search in google playstore): 1.) Battery Calibration (free)
2.) Titanium Backup (free or Pro)
3.) ROM Toolbox
4.) SD Maid
5.) Superuser or SuperSU
6.) Internet booster (really working for me)
USEFUL SOURCES:

QUICK FIX:
1.) SMS Limit:
a.) Download GO SMS PRO or Handcent SMS. Make it your default sms app.

Issues with cm9:
Engineer mode cannot be activated using the cm9 dialer.
No S settings support. so no s-memo or any s-app. but you can still use your s-pen. Use SMBX for drawings.
No gesture support.
S-Pen writing hand solution for CM9>>> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1860384
Cm9 does not support S-pen apps and S-pen calibration. But it can still detect the pen.
However we have better alternatives and I personally use them even when I was still in touchwiz.
1.) SBMX - One of the best canvas app for galaxy note. (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ngarside.memo&hl=en)
2.) Memo - Much like the S-app but better (you can crop picts, map, etc..) (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ngarside.memo&hl=en).
3.) Papyrus - Much like an S-note.
for gestures download >>> GMD Gesture Control Lite - you get more gesture with this app compared to touchwiz gestures. (https://play.google.com/store/apps/...nb29kbW9vZGRyb2lkLmdlc3R1cmVjb250cm9sZGVtbyJd)
I personally find the alternatives better than the s-apps..... But really... I miss the double tap quick note of touchwiz.
Android 4.2 Keyboard working on CM9.
Download and follow instructions from here > http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1965999
swype thing is pretty cool.
Another Cm9 issue I noticed:
Installation failed for apps purchased from Google playstore. Only for apps that automatically install itself in the internal storage SD card. No problem for other apps that automatically install in internal storage.
Solution: unmount the external SD card and internal SD card then download and install the app from playstore. Once installed, mount the SD cards back and just transfer the app from internal storage to SD card.

Read First: Thread created ONLY for Korean Galaxy Note (SHV-E160 S/K/L ver) users. ROOT, ROM or any developments posted here cannot be used for N7000 or I717 Galaxy note ver.
I am not responsible if you damaged or bricked your phone!! Use at your own risk!! I do not own nor created the developments posted here.
I created this thread to post the developments and support for our beloved Korean Galaxy Note as well as to compile the tutorials inside and outside XDA all in 1 thread.
Note: If you decide to share a recent development here, please specify/tag if applicable to all SHV models or specific model only (e.g, [e160 s/k/l] or [e160 S only]).
Basic Commands/terms:
1.)Download mode: Turn off the phone. When it’s completely turned off press [Volume down (-) + Home + Power]. Once you see the Korean text press Volume up (+).
2.) Recovery mode: Turn off the phone. When it’s completely turned off press [Volume up (+) + Volume down (-) + Home + Power]. You should see the recovery mode at the top of your LCD screen (either tegrak or clockworkmod recovery). To navigate, press Volume up or down and use the power button as your “enter/ok” button.
3.) ROOT – gaining admin access to your phone.
4.) Root File: Some were mislead by searching for a folder named “root”. “Root” is equivalent to /sdcard (not external sdcard or a folder named “root”). So when the instruction tells you to put a specific file to the root it means that you put it inside the /sdcard.
5.) Flash – the term “flash” in android’s world means “transfer”. When a guide tells you to “flash” partition, it implies that you transfer the contents to a partition (such as system, cache, data, boot, recovery etc…). There are different kinds of data you can flash such as recovery, rom, kernel etc. this can be done by using your PC/Laptop using ODIN for PC or Heimdall for mac or ROM Manager.
3.) Checking your Korean Galaxy note version- Korean galaxy notes have different versions and it depends with the Korean carrier. To check if you have either S/K/L go to settings > About phone. Also note your basedband version (UI24, UH24, F09 etc….).
Developments:
1.) Successful debrick of Korean Galaxy note. Thanks to darkspr1te and to the contributors. You can find his page here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1914359&page=10).
2.) ROOT- Before rooting your phone make sure you have upgraded to ICS 4.0.4. You can download Kies here (http://www.samsung.com/us/kies/) to upgrade or do it via phone by going to settings>about phone>system updates>check updates. Make sure your phone battery is at least over 50% . If you’re using a laptop, make sure the battery life is full or better plug it in. Don’t use a cheap cable. Please use the one you got from Samsung.
a) [e160 s/k/l] Root instructions by jairrab: (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1924535) I used this one to root my phone because it's easy to follow especially for root virgins. However, the instructions does not include the Clockworkmod recovery (CWM) installation. Hence, do this AFTER successfully installing the Tegrak Recovery:
I.) Download CWM Recovery (v6.0.1) cwm.tar here (https://www.dropbox.com/s/cyitd4ce3jq0zb4/cwm.tar)
II.) Put the downloaded file to the root of the phone (/sdcard)
III.) Follow the same method you used when you installed the Tegrak Recovery.
b) [e160L only] Root instructions by mycatisether: (http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1775015) found some useful info here (removing sms limit etc…) that are applicable to all Korean GN models.
3.) Post ROOT developments:
a.)BACK UP! After rooting your phone I advised that you do a NANDROID back up first (requiment: CWM recovery see 2.a in development section). It is a complete back-up of your phone. So anytime you can go back to your phone’s last condition. Do the following to make a nandroid back up using the CWM recovery.
I.) Flash CWM recovery
II.) Go to recovery mode
III.) Navigate using volume up or volume down and select “back up and restore” press power key to enter.
IV.) You should be in back up menu now. Navigate and select back up and hit the power button again. This will take awhile. Be patient.
V.) Once the back-up is done, navigate to “reboot system now” and hit the power button.
VI.) After reboot. Go to /sdcard and copy the clockworkmod folder to a safe place.
b.) Custom ROM:1.) [e160 s/k/l] CM9 Stable – Requirements: Rooted phone with CWM recovery (see 2.a under development section above)1.a) Download the following files and put inside the root (do not unzip)
CM9 ROM (https://www.dropbox.com/s/aaz0k19ddz0xytz/cm-9.1.0-quincyskt-KUKJIN-RC2.1.zip)
Front camera fix (https://www.dropbox.com/s/zqcjeegm6wn8vk2/old_note_front-cam_RC2.1.zip)
Google App for CM9 (https://www.dropbox.com/s/65703m0trd38gii/gapps.zip)
1.b) After copying the files in the root go to recovery mode (how to go to recovery mode? Read above).
1.c) In recovery mode select > “wipe data/factory reset” and select yes. > select “wipe cache partition” and select yes. > select advance > wipe dalvik and select yes.
1.d) After step 1.c STAY IN RECOVERY MODE and install the files you downloaded IN ORDER. Go to > “install zip from SD card” > 1st install CM9 ROM (cm-9.1.0-quincyskt-KUKJIN-RC2.1.zip) > 2nd install camera fix (old_note_front-cam_RC2.1.zip) > lastly, install Google app (gapps.zip).
1.e) Reboot and enjoy! Do not install the Korean keyboard! Or you can just uninstall it.
I personally use this CM9 ROM and it runs perfectly! I have no issues with the sms, battery, camera etc… All Korean bloatwares gone. No Korean keypad. Can send over 1000+ characters.
I really recommend the “Cobalt” theme as it made the CM9 even more smoother and you can download it here for free (https://play.google.com/store/apps/...h_result&rdid=com.dustinb.theme.cobalt&rdot=1) then go to settings>themes>select cobalt (ignore the message does not contain assets etc…).
If your SMS limit is not fixed. Download GO SMS Pro or Handcent SMS in google play store. Use it as your main messaging app. It will solve the problem.
Some have issues with their touchscreens. To solve this you can go to dialer and dial >*#2663# (no need to press the call button). Click “Touch key FW update” then reboot.
2.) Other ROMs – with some research and the help of the Koreans, Chinese and Vietnamese I was able to locate the following ROMs. Please note that I have not tested these ROMs, as such I cannot guarantee if they are working properly (however, darkspr1te told us the he will test some ROMs and provide feedback – just to prevent hard/soft brick). Some ROMs I found have instructions, some do not have. I’ll post my source and you can just use google translate and read the instructions from Koreans, Chinese and Vietnamese websites. PLEASE TAKE NOTE OF THE TAGGING I MADE. (E.G., IF IT's TAGGED WITH [S/K/L] IT MEANS IT’S COMPATIBLE TO ANY KOREAN GN (SHV E160]. IF IT'S TAGGED WITH [L ONLY], IT MEANS IT’S ONLY APPLICABLE TO E160L GN VER. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK!
a) [S/K/L] MIUI 2.8.3 Beta (http://pan.baidu.com/share/link?shareid=80764&uk=2063664816) – known 4G and battery problems. Translated source here (http://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&sl=auto&tl=en&u=http://search.matcl.com/b/imbeded/125842).
b) [L _UH24 ONLY] E160L UH24 GS3 style: (http://translate.googleusercontent....292641&usg=ALkJrhgNhnm3YD4P1xetBLAImDaM9vu5og
c)[T_UI24 ONLY] UI24 Jellybean style – really don’t know what is this. You need to log-in before you can see the downloadable file (http://matcl.com/b/usertheme/126333). Not sure if ROM or theme.
d) [S/K/L] Alpha1 ROM based on the stable CM9 above. I did not test it. Seems like icons were changed etc… You can download the ROM here ( still uploading to dropbox). See the translated original post here (http://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&sl=auto&tl=en&u=http://search.matcl.com/b/imbeded/126864) . Follow the same process when you installed the CM9 ROM above.
e) [S_UH24 ONLY] Based on Original e160S_UH24 ROM but rooted. You can download it here (http://kuai.xunlei.com/d/JCIBDHYSVQTU) password is E160S-eruizhi (case sensitive). Translated original post here (http://translate.google.com/transla...u=http://bbs.eruizhi.com/android-229-1-1.html)

Hi dycz21,
First of all i appreciate your work for bringing out CM 9 ROM for our beloved E160S/L/K.
I've been waiting for this for a long time.
Gonna install it tonight.
As you have already installed this ROM, are there any other major issues other than S pen settings?
Anyways thanks again.
:good:

Installing apps from Playstore always failed for apps that automatically install in SD Card. Solution is unmount the sd card(internal and external) then install the app from Playstore. Then mount back the SD cards after the app has been installed in phone memory. No problem for Playstore apps that automatically install in phone memory.
I tried to move some apps from phone memory to SD card but its not working (using apps2SD). Will try to find the solution.
S-Pen is still recognized we just dont have the s-pen settings and s touchwiz apps.
Im happy with the cm9 ROM. its fast as compared to touchwiz.
By the way, before installing make sure to back up your contacts, messages, viper and whatsapp messages and your APN settings. Also do a NAND back up. You need to set your APN manually after installing the cm9.

Hi dycz21,
You mean that there is no problem if i'm installing directly to internal storage. the problem is there only if i install directly to external sd card.
Please correct me if i'm wrong

My understanding: When you go to "settings" > "storage" you will see your storage is divided into 3 sections: (1) Internal storage (phone memory)/ (2) Internal storage (sd card) / (3) sd card (external storage). If you download from Playstore some apps automatically install in storage #1 (phone memory). For this we have no problem. For apps that directly install in storage #2, this we have the problem. Installation will fail for this apps. Solution is unmount storage #2 and #3 then start to download from playstore and install. The app will be forced to install in the phone memory and installation is successful.
So after you installed the app and decided to move the app to storage #2 or #3 you will encounter a new problem. Moving the app to #2 and #3 will always fail. I am still trying to figure out a solution. I think the chinese already sorted this issues but I dont have access to their website to download the files. Hopefully darkspr1te can help us as he have access to the website. I am still waiting for the koreans to post the solution.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
I randomly get error message "SystemUI stopped working".
.
(Solution 1) SystemUI FC Error comes due to Xposed. If you dotn install it, this error does not appear. This error happens due to conflict of home key in XposedFW +GravityBox. Thanks to a user adityagulavani, who hinted a quick-tip to solve this problem. Setup this option in GravityBox and error is gone. .
GravityBox>>>Navigation_Keys-Actions >>> HomeKey+LongPressActions >>> Show_Recent_App.
.
After this setup the error does not appear again.

(Solution 2) Most probably this is due to Xposed Module. Remove modules one by one and reboot each time to check. There are hundreds o Xposed modules for same task, you can try another. Also Clear Dalvik Cache and Fix Permissions from recovery mode when you reboot..
I dont have Xposed installed but still getting error message "SystemUI stopped working".
(Solution) Clear Dalvik Cache from recovery mode. It will vanish. If possible try "Fix Permissions" in TWRP. This option works for most roms. If you are on CWM, better change to TWRP 2.5.0.0, the total perfect stable version.

How to get rid of this Play app . It automatically installs uc broweser, candy games etc. There is no option in this app to stop automatic installation. I didnt disable this app because it may affect some other apps..so plz tell me what do.
(Solution) You did great job by not installing PlayApp. We have installed it for SideBar to work. Do not uninstall PlayApp. There is one App called "Disable Service" specially given to disable PlayApp. Once disabled from this app, it will not bother again and rom features will keep functioning well. After disbling, you can uninstall UC Browser and Candi Bar game. And please, do not uninstall or disable Playapp from System Setting> app manager.
Why PlayApp is included?
(Solution) @remzej said there is some association of this app with SideBar, hence it cannot be avoided. Just disable it with method mentioned above and forget it.

Recent app bar it not working correctly. When i close a app it appears after 10 sec or later in recent app bar. Or i have to open some other app to clear it instantly. Hence last opened app doesnt appear in recent bar instantly after exit. (Solution) Recent app works perfectly. Just wipe dalvik cache from recovery

Cant see SuperUser/SU? Should I install SuperSU? What do you mean by Hidden SuperSU?
.
(Info) SuperSU is installed inside rom and is already enabled. You will not be prompted for SuperSU permission of any application while installing. Just leave it and do not try to install it to avoid conflicts
