As of this moment, only rottohammer and shep201 have custom roms, with shep's one being only able to install through the clockworkmod recovery ( which is not stable atm ) , and rotto's through odin but doesnt really offer too many things except pre-rooting. You have to be patient, in order to get a working clockworkmod recovery and then devs' will surely cook something for us.

I agree. I think it is all sort of held up by Clockwork right now but once that is sorted it will be game on!

I made a custom ROM for Odin based on JM6 with preroot and circle battery. But it's mostly for Russia (russian book store, etc).

I was also wondering if there were any custom roms of perfomance roms currently out

where did u get the circle battery replacement?

no atm there are no (real) custom roms available!
but i'm cunrrently trying to port the elegant steel theme to the galaxy tab but its harder than i thought! and i'm playing with the kernel sources and maybe i manage it to do something for the performance

ok, i think i maybe confused then, when i root my tab using z4 root. What will that do? Will is install a custom ROM or only root my tab using 2.2

when is 2.3 update coming?

They are similar, but not as similar as you make out. Official 2.3 has been announces by Reto Meier (Google Android dev) for the Nexus S, them itll roll out to AOSP phones, then eventually to handset maker devices.

Until a full Gingerbread (Android 2.3) ROM is available to the masses, you can play a a few bits, such as the new stock keyboard:

[Q]Is there a good ODIN-able ROM without TouchWiz?

I know someone who doesn't want to mess around with CWM and rooting, just wants to flash a good ROM without TouchWiz. I couldn't find a ROM in the Android Development subforum that was both Odin-flashable and TouchWiz-free. Does anyone know of one?
Thanks
Only rom free of TW is CyanogenMOD. The others just replace the launcher but TW is still running in the background.
OK, thanks. Too bad the SGS isn't really supported yet.

Dunno where this one got the beta1 and beta2 naming for the gingerbread roms. He must be a samsung technician or samsung employee knowing these stuffs And also what he means with released I would like to know?
Nobody knows if it's a beta currently. The only person I have seen who said it's being installed at service centres WAS a samsung techie..
I still think it's a beta, or there would be reports about kies installations by now. For all we know, there are many things broken with this version that are lessor used.
Jvk feels like a finished ROM to me, at least an RC. Try juwe ROM which has root, cwm and lagfix

This is correct.
Since I'm new I'm not allowed to post links, but just Google
'engadget samsung galaxy s gingerbread official'
and it's the post called
Gingerbread update for Samsung Galaxy S to start rolling out in mid-April
I have i9000 2.2.1, so I'm very eager for this Looks like we'll be getting sometime in the next couple weeks, at the outside (considering today is exactly mid-april).
Samsung have Manual >Gingerbread version> release date 15/4/11 on the support site now .
That is Manual as in pdf .
jje
Well yes, there is since today a new manual on the support site, but is pretty much the same, just with an different layout and some other additional (none important) infos.
But i can't find anything Gingerbread related there.
edit
Nevermind, i was surfing on the german support site, and not on the uk one.

[Q] How is 2.3.7?

2.3.7 was out on September 20 -- why nothing about it here? Anyone tried it already?
P.S. I am not happy with my 2.3.4, XXJVP at all. It hangs, com.adroid.phone keeps crashing, phone is not much responsive and it all gets only worse and worse over the time. Now I am thinking, should I look towards 2.3.7 or should I wait until 4.0 comes? However, I guess 4.0 will come to I9000 with a significant delay, right?
Why not try 2.3.5?

CM7 is 2.3.7. coz is build from nexus sources ... and i thing there is nothing extra for i9000 users ... we dont have NFC chip ....

I don't build any illusions regarding Samsung's official releases. They are rather out of scope until Summer 2012 ;-) No joke, SAMSUNG sux big big big time on rolling out updates.
My concern are ROMs that are created by community heros. When'd you expect such?

I agree to some of your point but telling that samsung sucks in update is incorrect.Galaxy S has got updates more frequenty than any other android phone.We already have 2.3.5 leaked stock firmware and in comming days u will some 2.3.6 updates as well.Comming to other brands,take example of htc,they are still on 2.3.4.Motorola donot give more than 1 update to phones and forget about LG(they think that customers must be deprived of updated,so that they can ultimatly sell thier mobile industry)

I think we will have to use CM7 to get a taste of 2.3.7...
OK, and what are your bets about availability date for ICS on I9000 ?
(unofficially of course, there is no much sense to discuss official one)
UPDATE: OK, I'll try CM7 with its 2.3.7 and that's it. It will probably heal my SGS for next months ...or will brick it
After being hesitant for a while ( losing the whole samsung apps/feel ) ive finally made the jump to CM7. I must say its really stable and smooth, its packed with lots of options and tweaks .. so far im simply loving it. I think my search for the best custom ROM is done .
Btw, Cyanogen mod 7.1 is out for the i9000, which is considered as the first "stable" version to run on the i9000.
Also, im pretty sure cyanogen will get us ICS way before Samsung does.
I cannot really bet but after Nexus s recived ICS then it will hardly take 15-30 days for devlopers to port ICS to galaxy s because both nexus s and galaxy s is running same hardware except camera chip.

Well from what I understand, manufacturers are not required to release android updates to devices which are older than 18months. Anyone know the exact launch date of the sgs? So I guess it depends what the age of the sgs is by the time ICS is released. Even if we don't get the official ICS, I'm not so sure whether we will get it through cyanogen due to the sgs ram limitation. From 2.1 to 2.3 the average amount of free ram on the sgs has come down quite a lot, to a point where through average use you can end up in a situation with only 30mb free ram (depending on your rom and kernel and what apps and Widgets you use) after a days use. ICS will obviously have even higher memory demands than gingerbread, so the ICS experience on a sgs if it is provided unnofically by cyangoen may not be very smooth and user friendly.
That's just my opinion though, I'm no expert! And obviously I'd love for us to get ICS on the sgs

The most stable version I experienced till now is XXJPY. I'm using it for more than 2 months with no problem.
I guess the only way I'll ever use the new version will be through a ROM, probably same for many other people in here.

[Q] Which is the most stable rom for Galaxy Note

One of my friends wants me to root and flash a new rom to their Note but I have no idea which rom (ICS or GB) is the best.
Now before anyone flames me I just want to ask your opinions on the latest developments. Clearly I am asking for opinions. I also do not currently have this device.
Sent from CM9 Cornerstone Transformer TF101 using Tapatalk
Rocket gb is the most stable.
All GB Roms are very stable, and you won't go wrong if you flash any of them.
OTOH, ICS is not so stable and requires high user maintenance and fixing. I'd stay away from early ICS releases if I were you.

Cool thanks. Any recommended Rom aside from the one mentioned before as in what makes you go to it. I do understand about AOSP Roms and how unstable they can be in the beginning. Also is anyone planning to port CM9 to the note?

Maui is one taking care of CM9 port.. as of now there is no official leak yet. so once the leak is out then the development ll begin and the ROM ll be in hands soon.

Well, basically there are two types of custom GB roms ATM.
1. Light ones (much of the Samsung and other crapware removed)
They are fast and battery efficient. Some users don't like them because of the missing features. I prefer them, though: anything you need can be installed after flashing.
The light Roms are
Cassie's XL
Chrack's Small
2. Full Roms containg almost everything a stock Rom has
These Roms are somewhat (but not much) slower than the light ones, and their batter life can be slightly shorter if you do not monitor what your multitude of apps is doing behind your back, if you get my drift.
You'll find a full list of Note Roms with links here:

As I said before this isn't for me I personally don't have a note but am doing this for a friend and I know aosp ics is a little too unstable on anything for me to flash it to a device that I don't own. So that being said I will probably stick with gb unless they really want ics.

If your friend doesn't even know how to root and flash, then advise him/her that ICS is not the way to go. Otherwise you'll get bugged to death with requests to fix this and that.

Same bs no matter where you go on xda someone says something that someone doesnt like and bam out comes the flamethrower.
Ya like i said not my Note so i dont wanna experiment. Not to say i havent thought about Miui. I do however need something as rock solid as possible.
To be truthful both of your notes are bigger than mine coz i dont have one.
That being said my transformer does run CM9 and Cornerstone.

Here in Sweden we just got 4.1.2. So i assume we have some monts of waiting.. :laugh:
Android 5.0 Key Lime Pie will be revealed for the new Google Phone during Google I/O in May 2013.
So hope to get the 4.2 in May.
Exact but it is not small differences between the 4.1.2 and the 4.2..So i prefer to update direct to 5.0

Now there is both CM10.1 in alpha and a RC of LiquidSmooth.
None of them is perfect yet, but with the speed of development the last couple of weeks I think its just a matter of days.
As mentioned in the previous posts, yea there are roms for 4.2.1/2 already! like CM10.1 and Liquidsmooth (4.2.2)
Personally I would say go for LiquidSmooth. For now, it has better support and lesser bugs
I've tried Android 4.2.1 with CM mod but it's a little bit disappointing. I can't see any real useful changes so far.

no, Samsung will not release Exynos sources, so it will never be final
I hate to say it but we are either gonna get more support in next months or less support.
