[Q]Install Update (2.3.6) - Root later? - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey there,
Now I am also a proud owner of a Galaxy Note
Just one little question:
I am pretty sure, that I will root this device - like i did with all my android devices. But I would like to wait a couple of weeks, to be sure that this device working fine so far, you know, warranty etc...
I am currently running the 2.3.5 firmware and there is an update avaliable (i believe it's 2.3.6) - Am I able to root my device even after updating?
There are some HTC devices, which are not rootable with the latest stock firmware - that's why I'm asking
I appreciate any help

[Q] Android 2.3 Upgrade

Greetings from Germany. Phone runs on 2.2 Android with Kernel 2.6.32.9 root @ SE-S608#1
The Samsung Kies says
PDA:JPH
PHONE:JPP
CSC:JPA (ORS)
I wanted to upgrade to Gingerbread, but Kies says its already running on the newest available (Froyo). Im using the english version of Kies, think it doesn't matter?
1. Im using the german O2 Network, and I think the phone is not branded or rooted cause its new. Is the Gingerbread not out yet for my phone version ?
2. Can I flash the newest firmware like 2.3.4 by using Odin - WITHOUT rooting the phone - (rooting voids the warranty) ?
3. Is there currently any good custom ROM which is perfectly stable and has none bugs or lacking functions of official Gingerbread 2.3 ?
Heres a great 2.3.3 rom (Darkys)
Very stable and very fast, give it a go, you have to flash the JVH base rom first.
have a read....

Thank you.

[Q] Best custom firmware and help with rooting

Hi, sadly I'm a noob and I currently have a samsung galaxy n7000 UK based. I've attached a print screen on the information about my phone.
Previously, I was on the ICS firmware and since the uk version of the JB wasn't released, I updated my phone via Odin to the chinese version of the 4.1.2 JB. Then recently my phone said there was an update for my phone which was in fact the uk version of the JB.
Ever since, my phone is running quite slow and I have formatted it to see if it made a difference. The difference is slight.
Now I've decided I want to install a custom rom as I heard some of them would make my phone perform smoother, faster and also more battery-friendly.
Can someone give me a recommendation on which custom rom I should choose and give me a link that gives me instructions on how to root my specific firmware as I can't find any that mention XXLT3.
Please help?

We don't do best rom threads on xda, it's just a case of try them all til you're happy.
As for rooting, you may have to downgrade your rom to one that has a phillz kernel for it.

[Q] Installed Bootloader Unlocked, Rooted, xRecovery v0.1, whats next?

Hey boys,
Finally i decide to upgrade my Xperia X8 (from the last android official update) to a new version. I past the day reading guides, looking videos and finally i got my:
* Bootloader Unlocked.
* Rooted.
* xRecovery v0.1 Installed
Now im trying to decide wich version should i try to upgrade. Some people would say as a first shoot i should upgrade to 2.3.7, but i would like to install a newer version of android like 3.X or 4.X if possible.
My question is, there is any problem if i try to upgrade from Android (2.0 or 2.1) not exactly sure to a newer version (Android 4.0)?
Wich guides do you recommend me to follow, i think that the newer versions ask you to install something called kernel, but 2.3.7 doesnt right?
Thanks for advance.

Running new apps on old OS

The newest version of snapchat requires at least Android 4.0
Is there any possible way I can update my OS on my exhibit ii from my current version, 2.3.6. to Android 4.0?
I read a lot of posts about rooting and such but I really don't understand what it is or how to do it
If someone could provide me with a fix for the snapchat issue (running it on my current OS) or detailed instructions on how to safely root my device to run Android 4.0 on my phone then I will be the happiest girl in the world!
Please please please help! I just want snapchat back
