Note: Some changes are still on their way through gerrit, so the N7000 will not be buildable via source yet.

Known Issues

Q/A

Q. Does this use a safe kernel?
A. Yes, at the moment it uses a pure CM kernel.

Q. How do I remove the pointer when using the S-Pen?
You can find info here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=27930142&postcount=936

Q. Can I use the Thor kernel?
A. Only if you want to break your device.

Android (and the linux kernel that powers it) are open source. If linux and it's kernel were not open source, Android would not exist, or at least as we know it. If the Linux kernel was not protected by the GPL but Android was still open source, most of the development on this forum couldn't happen, including this kernel. Linux is based on openness, and the community participating and improving the code. I am a very strong believer in openness, I personally only work on open-source projects, because that's how things get better, new developers learn, and how great ROM's like AOKP and CM are born. Now, to the Thor kernel. The Thor kernel is not open-source. The GPL states that source must be provided upon request whenever a binary is distributed (the zip you flash for Thor is the binary). This isn't a suggestion, it's the law. The developer of the Thor kernel decided that he was too good, and would blatantly ignore the law. Even though his work would not be possible without the GPL in place, because there would be no Samsung kernel source for him to base his kernel off of. Also, you take his word that his kernel is safe. Nobody can confirm that without source. For all you know, his kernel could be collecting information on you (carrier IQ anyone?) Note: I am not saying that that is what is happening. I am however saying, that you do not know it isn't. Other kernels have peer review, other developers can see what's happening on open-source kernels. That is also why you do not see his work on XDA, because we require source to be posted. /rant

Q. Where can I find the latest builds and their md5's?
A. All of the N7000 files will be posted here, old and new.

The kernel is stock CM9 at the moment. Last I checked neither speedmod nor franco were designed for AOSP ROM's, so no support for them yet. If that gets changed in the future, I will look at it.

is this rom as smooth as cm9?

I'm sorry, but that is a very subjective question, that nobody can answer but you. Flash and find out.
