Backlight Notification- BLN

Thanks for your work! Is there any way we can get BLN enabled on the stock kernel? Or is there another kernel already out that has it enabled? I've done some research and it seems that developers can add the bln libraries to kernels enabling the feature to already existing kernels even stock kernels. It is the only feature that I am missing coming from my GS2.

I am running a T-Mobile rom on an ATT Note i717. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks.

Is it worth updating or is it a security update that only benefits tmobile to control our device and not really a benefit to consumer

I didn't notice any changes. Everything pretty much performed the same.

Just go to Samfirmware.com and search t879 and the latest update will come up. Get the tar file it may have md5 after it just remove it and flash through odin by placing it in the PDA section.

I just did this and rebooted and it's been on the "Samsung Galaxy Note Android 4g" boot splash screen for a few minutes now. Is this frozen or how long am I supposed to wait?

All this did was cause it to freeze on the samsung logo. ugh
cant boot into clockworkmod either. the download link is down so i found the tmobile boot.img and flashed it. nothing

Total newbie here.

I really want to try out this rom, but the links in the original post are broken. People seem to be directed over to Samfirmware.com to download an update. Would this update be the same files the OP had initially uploaded onto Dropbox? Also, not having installed the OP's Dropbox rom, can I simply go over to Samfirmware.com, download the update file(s), and install via Odin? Or, would I need to install the OP's Dropbox rom first?

Thanks!
John

GPS Signal lock Problem with UVLG3 for i717 Model

I don't know if I am the only on experiencing this but so far I love the ROM. I have achieved sometimes upwards of 15 Mbps download and I have been very happy. I have UVLG3 Modem for i717 flashed. Recently, I needed to use the GPS and my signal keeps getting lost. So, I flashed Official TMo ICS Radio Note Modem and I get strong GPS lock but not getting the speed I used to have. Anyone else experiencing this?

Thank you for all the hard work!!!!

    Install T-mobile stock ICS 4.0.4 on AT&T Galaxy Note i717!

    This was not my idea, i did edit some files but i am not the one who started this idea
    so with that being said, the people who insist on saying that i was not built here please hold your breathe
    i contributed this idea because no one else had



    As the title says this post is how to install T-Mobile stock 4.0.4 on our AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note i717
    Everything is fully functional
    WiFi Calling works!
    All T-Mobile apps work!

    THIS WILL NOT UNLOCK YOUR DEVICE, THIS IS FOR PEOPLE WITH THE i717 THAT HAVE T-MOBILE SERVICE


    Disclaimer: I am not held responsible for anything that you could do to your phone by flashing this ROM!

    Follow step by step


    1. Download Odin
    2. Download T-Mobile Stock image and Boot
    3. Put i717 into Download Mode (you should know how)
    4. Start Odin V1.85
    5. Put the tmob-system.img.tar into the PDA Slot
    6. Hit Start!
    7. Your phone will reboot, keep holding the volume down button so you get back into download mode
    PS. If you miss download mode then just pull your battery and put it back in and get back into download mode
    8. Put t-mob-stock-boot.img.tar into the PDA slot
    9. Hit Start
    10. Download the UVLG3 Modem
    11. Flash the above modem in your custom recovery
    12. Reboot! and Enjoy!
    My download and upload speed has doubled sometimes tripled since i flashed this ROM! i cannot guarantee that you will experience the same results!

    Just a heads up, I'm on tmobile's $30 prepaid plan, and I was able to use wifi calling and it didn't use any minutes. I was also able to use google voice as my voicemail. Everything's running good so far.

    Thanks for being the first to confirm that this is working
    it something that i know of hasent been done before so i want people to trust that this is real :D
