Posted October 10, 2014 Yeah. My new phone arrives in a few days. I'm getting it used from a friend who recently got a sexy note 3. I just want to know, how would Cyanogenmod11 Nightly run on it? Will it be like using iOS 6.1.6 on my 3GS where it lags and I can only have one app open at a time? Or will it be actually decent? Eric S.

Will it be like using iOS 6.1.6 on my 3GS where it lags and I can only have one app open at a time? Or will it be actually decent? CM11 runs pretty well on it, however keep in mind two things: 1. As much as Kitkat may be "optimized" for slower devices, running something older like CM10.1 (4.2.2) stable, even though you lose some newer features of Kitkat, is noticeably smoother, especially when multitasking 2.

Posted October 10, 2014 Author Anyone else read the title and think Samsung was following in Microsoft's footsteps? (Galaxy Note One) /What other phones does CM11 officially recommend/support? (how does the hardware compare to that in the Note) They support many phones. But the Note 1 (n7000) is officially supported. The CM11 is in nightly currently, but a stable release will come soon based on what I've heard. But I'm fine with running 10.1.3 if 11 will lag it. I want to squeeze power out of this android. Anything to prevent it from becoming my poor 3GS. Eric S. Raymond used an E6600 from 2005 until 12/30/14 or open source software creation. Raw data computations in excess of 18GB each.

CyanogenMod breaks S-Pen functionality I do not mind the S-pen functionality being busted at all. Original owner was running paranandroid on it and never used the S-pen. I'd like kit kat due to the security, but as long as Cm10.1.3 will run a million times faster, I'll sacrifice myself in the name of speed! Eric S.

Wanna hang out with me and people like @Theslsamg, @ Ssoele, @BENTHEREN, @Lanoi, @Whiskers, @_ASSASSIN_, @Looney, @WunderWuffle, and @nsyedhasan. Well....

Posted October 10, 2014 Author might want to try to get a custom kernel for it, and maybe try to undervolt it for battery life. I'm getting a 4600mah battery anyhow when it gets here. I'm also going to give it a slight overclock like the previous owner had. He said that even with the overclock, he got 4 days on the standard battery. Eric S.

From personally installing CM11 on a friend's original Galaxy Note? I tried CM11 and it was really nice to use until you start multitasking and having many apps running in the background, which starts to slow down the phone. Flashed CM 10.1.3 and although in initial usage it felt the same, it stays smoother then CM11 as you start opening apps. Of course with the limited RAM of the phone multitasking many apps with any ROM will eventually slow down the phone, it's just that CM10.1 is smoother compared to CM11 after you start having programs run in the background.

I have no idea how a less optimized OS that requires even more ram is somehow smoother. do you have ANY objective source that can confirm this?

Find an day/afternoon you have nothing to do and download both 11 M10 and 10.1.3. Try one ROM first and use it for an hour or so doing your regular smartphone things, then switch to the other, do the same things, and see which one works better for you. It's your phone so it's up to you. When I was installing CM on my friend's Note I was using a Nexus 5 myself, so of course it was natural of me to feel more annoyed at even the slightest lags compared to someone coming from an iPhone 3GS.

At this point, anything's better than my 3GS. I've done everything I could to make it do modern things and it just can't. I'd do anything to get this to do modern tasks and keep doing them from now on. Eric S. Raymond used an E6600 from 2005 until 12/30/14 or open source software creation.
