The Jelly Bean-based Liquid Smooth custom ROM (also known as the Liquid Jelly Bean custom ROM) is now available for the AT&T Galaxy Note SGH-I717. Developed by ManelScout4Life, a member of XDA Developers, Liquid Jelly Bean brings with it a fitting “fluid” and smooth interface style and reliable UI from Android 4.1 Jelly Bean.

The said ROM for the Galaxy Note I717 is a kang build of the official Liquid Jelly Bean custom ROM.  This isn't an official ROM, so keep in mind that this lacks the stock Samsung ROM features.  The Apollo music player and Bluetooth functionality still seem to have functionality issues, too.

This guide shows you how to install Liquid Jelly Bean ROM for the Galaxy Note I717.
