A word about how this thread came about:

Our highly respected developer Utacka got fed up with 4.2.1 ETA inquiries, feature requests and questions posted by those with no inclination to read or search anything, not even the OP.
We need to let Utacka have some respite from those in order to not lose him altogether.

So, I'll be compiling Utacka's ParanoidAndroid nightlies for him and Utacka will be releasing a weekly build for the time being.

Downloads here are and will always be untouched Utacka PA builds compiled from his source at Github. Nothing added, nothing subtracted, nothing modified.
Roms here and Roms in the original Utacka ParanoidAndroid thread are identical, you can download and flash any of them, and you'll be getting the same Utacka PA experience.

Let us begin.

Prologue
This is NOT a port.

This is the FIRST PA ROM that is built from source for GT-N7000 and I'm providing these builds on a nightly basis when there is changes from CM or PA.

How to install Utacka ParanoidAndroid Rom.

It doesn't matter which Rom you are coming from, all that matters is the kernel you are on.

If you are running any CM-based kernel (CM9, CM10 or CM10.1)
If you are running any Gingerbread kernel
If you are running Hydracore or HydracoreNirvana
If you are on Franco ICS kernel newer than v3
If you are on Speedmod ICS kernel newer than v3
If you are running PhilZ kernel v3.99 or newer

Code: 
1. download ParanoidAndroid Rom and Gapps
2. place them on your SD card
3. reboot into recovery
4. wipe data/factory reset
5. wipe cache and dalvik
6. flash the Rom
7. flash Gapps
8. reboot
If you are on any PhilZ kernel older than v3.99

Code: 
1. download any CM10 kernel from Kernel Repository
2. download ParanoidAndroid Rom and Gapps
3. place all three files on your SD card
4. reboot into recovery
5. flash the CM10 kernel first
6. stay in recovery, go to advanced/reboot recovery
7. wipe data/factory reset
5. wipe cache and dalvik
6. flash the Rom
7. flash Gapps
8. reboot
Kernel Repository is here.



If you are running a kernel not mentioned above, go here and read extra carefully before doing anything.



If you are already on any previous Utacka ParanoidAndroid 2.56 build

Code: 
1. download the new build and Gapps
2. put it onto your SD card
3. reboot into recovery
4. wipe cache and dalvik
5. flash the Rom
6. flash Gapps
7. reboot



DOWNLOADS​




A final word: please consider donating Utacka for all the tremendous work he has done and is still doing to make all our Notes faster, smoother and better looking.

Do not, I repeat, do not donate to me. What you are enjoying here is Utacka's work, not mine. I just deliver his craftsmanship to you, that's all.​

A word of caution to everyone:

This thread will not be allowed to degenrate into a post garbage that has nearly driven Utacka away.


Ask for 4.2.1 ETA, you will be reported.

Ask "How I flush this...?", you will be reported.

Demand features....you guessed it, you will be reported.

Discuss Thor kernel/recovery, you will be reported.

Complain about problems without submitting a logcat/last_kmsg, you will be reported.

Report issues that have already been reported and discussed ad nauseam, you will be reported.

Ask for S-apps to be included in the Rom, you will be reported.

To cut the long story short, this thread will be heavily moderated, so watch your step.

You have been officially warned.

Furhermore, officer in command of this thread is AA1973. The minute he tells Utacka or me he's had enough, this thread is closed, so don't make him mad.​

Reserved for ...my personal thank you @utacka for providing countlessly this amazing ROM!

Reserved for FAQ - frequent annoying quastions™

You're new to Paranoid Android or it has been a long time since you last flashed PA?
Then, feel free to take the quick and guided tour, which will take only 2 minutes.

Go into settings > PA settings and hit the Help tab.
There you'll find the guided tour and the different layout possibilities well explained.
You're invited to replicate the layout/density feature at best with YouTube, as it has the upmost possible combinations.
Furthermore, you'll find all members of the PA team, including molesarecoming and D4rkn3Ssys, the founders of PA.

General, for some members important, question about this version by utacka and the PA Version by imilka?
Utacka PA = Nightly basis (unofficial PA way)
imilka PA = PA version bumps (official PA way)

That's it, no other difference at all.
Nightly basis signifies that you can flash utacka's version on a daily basis, because as soon as CM10 (=the base) changes, utacka updates as well. If you can cope with this method of flashing on a daily basis, then this is your place. If this means too much hassle for you to keep up, then you should reconsider your choice and probably go for imilka's version.


Some FAQ
Screenshot not working:
Either the native functionality (Volume down + Power button) or long press power button and then choose "Screenshot".
If the latter is not available yet, activate it in System settings > System > Power

I seem to have no status bar (notification bar)
Long press power and click "Expanded Desktop".
Always wondered, what this is useful for? Just use phone layout and navigation bar at the same time and choose Camera. You'll see 3 little dots (the navigation bar symbols) shining through. You can avoid it by this function.
Other terms of use: video playing or within games, where notification bar won't disappear automatically.

My Google account is lost and play store doesn't work!
You have forgotten to flash GApps as well.
Flash ROM
Flash GApps
That's the standard procedure after updating PA version...even on a nightly (daily) basis!

RIL Crashes
Media Scanner

I do really want to use Inverted GApps -> personally, I use JusTun Beans inverted GApps

Some rules
1. I'm going to post my question without doing a search. Fine, but you'll just get made fun of, or infracted by one of the mods who use this mod. Searching is the first rule of XDA. "1. Search before posting. Use one of our search functions before posting, whether you have a question or something new to share, it's very likely someone already asked that question or shared that news."

Some hints for XDA-app or tapatalk Users: the search function within the app is very limited!
If you really want to search, just hit on any post and then the menu button in order to choose web view. Then, within the browser of your choice, you can easily do the search you want. There is the possibility called "Search this thread"...

2. People have a bad attitude in this thread. You broke rule #1, didn't you?

3. Do I really have to do a full wipe while coming from another ROM? No one is going to stand over your shoulder and make sure you do, but don't expect help if you don't.

4. My recovery freezes, gives me some other weird error (Status 7, or similar)
Redownload ROM (GAPPS) and flash again as you have encountered maybe a bad download.
Checking MD5 helps.
Tool to check MD5 is e.g. Solid Explorer Beta2


_________________________________________
Q: Where are S-apps (Note, Memo, Planner etc)?
A: They require TouchWiz framework to work, so you will not find them here. There are alternatives to
S-apps in Playstore.
_________________________________________
Q: I'm currently running xyz kernel. Can I flash this Rom safely?

A: Go here to find out.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1857556
_________________________________________

Q: How do I flash this?

A: This is how. #OP
_________________________________________

Q: Oohhhh - battery drainage! (battery drains,...)

A: Have a look here:
_________________________________________


Q: Recovery aborts flashing Rom or Gapps or kernel and displays error code "status 7"?

A: You most probably have a bad download. Redownload Rom/Gapps/kernel, check MD5 and try again.
_________________________________________

Q: Flash went through OK, but now I can't sync calendar/contacts/Gmail, there's no option to setup my
Google account, Playstore won't start, where is my Picassa...?

A: You either forgot to flash Gapps, or had a bad Gapps zip (if you had flashed it).
_________________________________________

Q: Playstore says I have no apps, and I purchased them ages ago, or claims that my apps are incompatible
with the Note...?

A: Go here to find the solution to your problems.
_________________________________________

Q: Can I flash some other kernel on this Rom?

A: You can, but if something goes wrong don't post your problems here. Go to the kernel thread instead.
_________________________________________

Q: A system app keeps FCing. What can I do?

A: Go to Settings/apps and clear the app's cache and data, reboot. If that doesn't help, try to dirty reflash the Rom (just wipe cache and dalvik).
_________________________________________

Q: Gallery only shows grey squares, but no pictures, wth?!
A: Clear cache of gallery and let the media scanning process run again. That should do it!
_________________________________________

Q: Where do I find new themes?
A: Either in PlayStore or here is a thread dedicated to CM10/AOKP themes

One question about Goo Manager: will your compilations appear as goo updates of Utacka's builds? Actually I'd rather not as I find goo notifications unnecessary.

Btw, how many roms are you currently building ? You're going to fry your Note if you keep flashing like that!

Have I been that unclear in the OP? What you're flashing here is Utacka's ParanoidAndroid.

The only difference is that it's been compiled on a different PC.

Very well ..However if moderators educate the users about how to obtain logcat in an easy way and submit in the OP, This will help novice to report the problems in a meaningful manner .

people are forgetting that this is development section...i think too much nonsense post and unhelpful to rom dev inputs stray away the devs...its frustrating for users who take the time to help out seeing posts by others who cant even take some minimal time to even read the OP or google search...come on mates this is xda and not sammy customer service...utilize your brain power so as others wont go on tearing up your intellect...persevere to learn...

as always props to chasmodo for keeping up with the note...always appreciated mate...and of course to our devs who work tirelessly with dedication (utacka, eybee, etc)...we always respect and value your work guys...and thanks for staying...
