For those of you looking for a good Android 4.2.2 ROM, check out the Carbon ROM. Based on Android 4.2.2, the Carbon ROM is a “new kid” on the block offering UI customization a lot like AOKP but slightly different and “new”. I’ve been following their ROMs and testing them since Carbon Team has released their first Android 4.2.2 ROMs on the Note 2 and they are beginning to look like a solid team of ROM developers with new features like notification shortcuts (up to 16!) that no one else offers.
Their latest version on the GT-N7000 seems pretty solid so if you want to try some new ROMs, definitely give Carbon ROM a try this week and do let me know what you think of Carbon ROMs.

Download Carbon ROM
To install, reboot into recovery, wipe data/factory reset (most likely needed, if you want to try without, just make a backup ROM, and backup your apps!!!), install ROM, reboot.
Once rebooted successfully into the ROM, if missing Play Store, install Gapps in recovery.

hi max, if we want to install this rom which kernel we have to use to flash.
I just use Abyss kernel which has been working fine for me.
same question….
which kernel should i use to flash this rom….
i am already using a custom jellybean rom…
plzzz do reply
Hi Max… you seem to like (and recommend) LMT very much, but in my phone in all cases happens to be a huge RAM hog!…. do you (or anyone else) also have this issue??
It is very nice and fast but it is too bad that it does not have samsung apps such as snote. Also, contacts are diffucult to organize.
Sir, please do note that this is an *AOSP* ROM. Android Open Source Project, meaning straight from the Nexus. Samsung apps are Samsung. By flashing an AOSP / AOKP / CM ROM, you are agreeing to leave the realm of TouchWiz and their Samsung bloatware (500+ MBs of them) such as S Note, S Memo.
is snote in this rom is Enabled
after flashing this rom my note stuck and now i have to replace my motherboard bad for me……………….
does screen turn on? If your screen turns on, it’s recoverable.
thanks max for ur reply, my note screen is on and when i try to install custom rom it stuck at factoryfs and giving no response.i restart my phone and again try to install but result was same….
You dont need to change the board, just flash abyss kernel and try to flash another rom.
running this rom a few days now, so far so good. Stable and fast, great battery life… I would like to get overclocking access. I heard AOSP have a kernal for it, do you know where i can dl it ?
Can I flash the ROM on a ICS 4.0.4 with kernel franco?
I flashed this ROM correctly and then the gapps. I just want to ask how to take screenshots and where can I find S-Pen Apps?
or other S-Pen related features?
TIA
You can probably find it in Samsung apps store.
When I tray to install this rom I had a massage in the end of installation says (installation aborted)
I use galaxy note international version with ultimate XXLSC rom
u should install the kernel 1st..
try abyssnote kernal
How do you flash the kernel?
with ODIN then Phone button
PDA button! Do not use Phone button otherwise you will brick.
same as installing ROM if using a zip file for .tar files, use ODIN.
After I flashed the kernel, I went into advanced ->reboot recovery. And then I flashed the ROM but it says status 7. Help!
I flashed the rom with success but I don’t know how but I am getting language other than english. How to change my device language to english?
go to setting and LANGUAGE & INPUT (keyboard icon)..and click on the 1st colum..tht is for changing the language..
Thanks for quick reply. That worked!!!
HI..CAN SUM1 TELL ME HOW TO TURN OFF THE SOUND WHILE USING THE KEYBOARD..SEEM I CANT FIND IT ON SETTING..
THANKS
i did go to setting-sound and under the SYSTEM i unclick the TOUCH SOUND..but still have the clicking sound while using the keyboards.
Hey Max, i don’t know why, but can’t download any of your Roms. Already disabled the Adblock… still it only shows “Please wait”.
It’s done… downloaded it on goo.im but everytime i try to install, it tells “installer error” and i’m back in my old ROM (ultimate).
Sry for not reading… of course i have to flash the kernel first. It’s booting now, pretty excited
Hey Frohbaer , Please share the kernel name and link to download if possible. Thanks!
Hey sry for not writing again. After Installing this rom i just fell in love again with my note
the Kernel was just the AbyssKernel 4.2 [1] after that i installed the gapps (it’ll tell you, if you can get a newer verison) (via recovery).
If you want more features here are some extras (haven’t test them yet) [2]
p.s.: remember i got the Rom on Goo.im [3] so i don’t know if there are some differences …

Hi. I’ve just rooted my Note and right now I’m rocking the franco kernel. I want to flash this ROM. As I’ve read the comments, do I have to flash the abyss kernel?
trying to flash rom but always getting an error message
installation aborted error 7 ???
what should i do ?
also another question , if i install this rom i know there will be no S Pen apps, but will the spen it self work ?
What I did was flashing the latest cm10 kernel. Reboot system. Then do a full wipe and then flash the ROM. Remember to backup your current ROM first.
The S pen works.
Dear Tarek,
I think you would need to flash the kernal first and than flash the ROM..
Hi Max,
Thanks !!!
This is an amazing ROM, I specially like the customization options available with this ROM and Battery Life is just outstanding for an average user like me single charge lasted for 29+ hrs which is amazing.
After installing this ROM my total RAM rounds up to 779 MB where in my stock Jelly Bean was showing around 840MB+ of total RAM, Is there a way i can increase the RAM amount back to 840MB+ which i had while using my stock ROM. Any adivse would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!!
