Step 7 - Next, press the Power button again to select "choose zip from sdcard".

Step 8 - Navigate to the AOKP ROM zip file that you copied to the SD card and select it to begin installation. Confirm the installation and the procedure will begin.

NOTE: This step needs to be repeated for the Google Apps zip file as well.

Step 9 - After the installation is finished, go to "+++++Go Back" and reboot the phone. This rebooting can be done by selecting "reboot system now" from the recovery menu. The phone will boot now and may take about five minutes to boot on so be patient.

The Galaxy Note should now have Android 4.1.1 AOKP Build 2 Jelly Bean installed. Users can go to "Settings" and "About Phone" to verify.
