Bin4ry: one of the few reasons is that it has a fully customizable theming engine in the back where u can just customize quite a lot of things like status bar, fonts, icons, etc, instead of using a third party launcher. Anyway like you said, it's a personal taste thing :)

Thanks everyone for the heads up, will spend the long weekend to work on this! :)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] DooMLoRD:
CM7 theme engine + launcherpro... go enjoy ;)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ucubz:
+1

CM7 theme engine is great.

BTW, I'm not a dev and don't understand about porting FW right now. but I'm really interested about this android world and custom FW. Maybe I'll start with reading thread you provided :D
[Xperia Arc Android Development] xtorm80:
i would like it lean please :D

god news for us as development for arc is very limited and slow :(
[Xperia Arc Android Development] kazuni:
CM7 theme management is great, mind you, but again it's personal taste I guess. Been living on CM7 since G2 Hero, HD Mini, X10, HD2, Desire Z, SGS, got tired I guess :) I like the fact that MIUI allows customization based on components instead of a full theme overhaul, and notifications are top-to-bottom toast popups, built in ftp, fonts, etc. Perhaps these can all be replaced by updating framework-res, or installing customized fonts, etc. But ease of use is also my concern...

Aaaaanyway before i go full throttle and brag on about its good vs bad, I shall stop and thank DooMLoRD for the X10 guide! :D
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Alejandrissimo:
Miui its not about themes, its a full android custom rom. Own file manager, music , camera, gallery, and mucho more.

I don like iphone style too but you can custumize miui like hell :D
[Xperia Arc Android Development] jerpelea:
you have to use precompiled miui because there is no source released and this is like porting any other rom from any device,you can do the same with htc sense

in our opinion this mixing of libs should not be done,take an source and build your own rom then theme it as you like

mixing libs is not desired, even if filename is the same there are many things to be considered!
[Xperia Arc Android Development] rdannar:
Main thing for miui

Ramdisk

.sh etc files

Libgsl

Hw and hw config files

I don't know arc files so may need other core files not in miui rom

Then you make sure media and system server work correct and should at least boot

Then backsmali service jar and configure power and native daemon are correct

Thought it was just me, just bought the arc because I was impatient waiting for GB on the X10.. trips miui cam works well but i hate the layout.

The Arc has GB, a great cam & an unlocked BL.. so bring on the AOSP 2.3.4 & CM7 roms..
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Mooozer:
i'm just curious about the lockscreen rdannar demonstrated in x10 miui rom, the rest i distaste a bit ^^

would be much more excited to see this lockscreen in other roms.

still - keep going & develop this rom, if not use this one, one might take parts of the work for use it elsewhere. dont think effort will be lost here :)

[Galaxy S I9000 General] ogami_ito:
I feel embarrassed to have to ask this, and I know a lot of people hate this type of post. I want a suggestion for what custom ROM to flash.

I started flashing about 5 months ago with Darky's ROM. And now I like my phone. ( I won't say love, because I love my parents, my children, StarTrek, BSG, hot girls, and icecream and that's it). BUT, the more I flash, the more I get annoyed with the gliches. Darky's 10.1 didn't have working GTalk (w/ Camera), and sometimes has some bugs. I lately flashed Ruyyo EDB1.1 (JVP ROM), but sometimes the phone restarts or crashes, and every 3 days or so, SOMETHING runs down the battery (meaning, the phone over-heats, acts slow, and loses all battery in 5 hours). That might be because of an app, but I think its on the rom. The main apps I use are HandcentSMS, ADW-Ex, and Multi-picture live wall paper. And Gmail (which is FCing every time I restart the phone)

Now there are so many ROMs out, I don't know which one to get. All say they are stable and fast...and I'm sure for many people they are. But I am searching for suggestins. I cannot try out many because I live in China, and because of the damn stupid retarded Great Firewall of China, all downloads of ROMs from Multi-upload are slow (and I need special software to access that site).

So...I'm looking for a ROM which is really stable, which I do not need to do a wipe-flash with and can install with CWM. I would prefer that it use the same lag-fix solution as the Darky ROM so that I can go back to it when they update ...but as I don't every actually activate the lag-fix, probably does not matter.

I'm looking for a ROM which must have voodoo sound (the ability to use my phone with my own AKG earphones without having to unplug said earphones when I answer a call is what convinced me to keep the SGS instead of getting an iPhone4... so this is critical)

I need my ROM to support live wallpapers, so that I can use my LCARS wallpaper with multi-pic.

I prefer my ROM to support the Samsung Music player with the integrated lock-screen widget.

I really prefer ROM which has the front-camera fixed and google-talk operating.

Any suggestions are appreciated.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Tim182:
Sounds very much like what I am looking for also. I am on Darky at the moment as well. I just want a good, fresh and 100% stable ROM.

- I need root

- Lagfix would be nice

- Needs to be able to work well with Launcher Pro Plus

- Good battery life

- BLN essential
[Galaxy S I9000 General] flaviucu:
We all need roms that are stable, fast, and with a good battery life... I think I've tried all main SGS roms, but at the end I think I'll stick with MIUI.

I liked Darky's rom, but I've got too many force-closes... maybe it was my fault because I didn't flash it correctly.

But for a month or so I've used MIUI... it's the fastest rom... You've got tons of lockscreens.. including samsung's (I think). Battery life it's not the best, but the devs are really working on making this rom perfect. For example.. for Galnet... this week 2 updates came out, and we're waiting for a big one friday.

My advice: give MIUI a try and you won't be disapointed ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ogami_ito:
There are three reasons why I did not try MIUI. BUT, my reasons may be flawed.

1. In my understanding, MIUI is based on Cryogen (or something like that), which requires that I flash (wipe-flash?) a Froyo ROM first. Which means that I have to download two huge files through the Great FireWall of China. I know that's a lame reason...but that's a fair amount of work for me. Not to mention reloading all my apps.

2. In my understanding, CM (and hence MIUI) does not have the Voodoo sound and does not have the Samsung Music app. The music app is not so big a deal because (in my understanding), CM and MIUI have their own in-notification-bar music controls (which is why I like the Samsung music app). However, I need Voodoo sound in order to allow use of my own headphone while talking on the telephone.

3. In my understanding, MIUI is supposed to look like iOS, which I do not like.

Please let me know if my understandings are wrong.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Tim182:
I also didn't try it because I don't want to flash an updated version twice a week. I want a good working ROM from the start with no need to update until the next Android version comes out.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] miao2oo:
I am oso on darky's rom previously but having same issue. Then tried Tweaky's rom and Juwe's rom too. Juwe's rom is fast but its bit dull colored and lack of sgs2 apps like Tweaky's rom.Now I am using my own rom base on JVP with Talon kernel with OC, actually it's a mix and match of Tweaky n Juwe's rom. Everything is working so far with some sgs2 apps, tw4, gtalk with video call.Flash n wipe is a must for a start. If u r interested I can post a link for u.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Lunchbox115:
CM7 (CyanogenMod7) has Voodoo Sound for sure, even Voodoo Colour. BLN should also be possible with a custom kernel.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] markthepig:
best looking rom, fast and reliable its galnet mui. Battery life it;s not great yet but galnet its working hard to fix.

i think that after flashing couple of roms you will decide.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Bisko69:
My advice: Juwe's Smart Edition v5.0 XXJVP .... he have all what you need .... and much more :cool:
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Tim182:
I'm gonna go with that. What's the best way to flash from Darky 10.1? Disable lag, wipe, flash official and then juwe?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Lunchbox115:
Exactly. ;) Just diable lagfix, full factory reset and finally flash Juwe's ROM with CWM. :-)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] burakgon:
I tried most of these roms. I tried to play dungeon defenders with some roms. Holy.. that was very laggy and and unplayable. Now I'm on MIUI 2.2 rom. I tried dungeon defenders again. Wow.. Smooth and smooth... all FPS are X2 on quadrant. My device clock is 1600 mhz max as default as miui. Sometimes it stucks and restarts. But galnet works really hard. And battery is not the best ok. But thats worth it. You can download different themes with theme manager. Also there is an air update app for muiu. Which updates your device latest miui. I l

will stick with that..
[Galaxy S I9000 General] tcboy88:
i m using galnet miui also

but the updates is too fast for me to chase

i came from mcgv5.3 to miui 2.2 without going thru mcgv 7.6

personally wat i think miui lacks off is the slide to call or sms from contacts and phone calls there
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ogami_ito:
Why factory reset? Why not just do no-wipe flash with CWM?

Part of my problem is that there are a lot of ROMs, and if I'm wiping everytime I do a new ROM, its takes quite a while to restore to full functionality...albiet the end result may be more stable.

So you are saying that you had better battery life with others, and MIUI sometimes gets stuck, but you like MIUI because its faster for games and themes? That's not really what I need (although I do like the notification options I saw on it has). I am more not into this because I'm not into having to Flash back to Froyo in order to install.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ogami_ito:
Hearing this, I'm tempted to bite the bullet and go through the CM7 install proceedure. I then will have to upload the google apps and the new google talk. But the end result may be pretty cool (assuming does not drain battery more than other ROMs). Thanks for the info.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] burakgon:
MIUI rom doesnt stuck and restarts as your think. Battery life is not horrible. You can control your headset in miui with different module like voodoo sound. I think thats the best rom to stick now. You can get air updates and you dont need to wipe your data for updates. Just give it a try. I guess you will like it.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ogami_ito:
Thank you. I don't think it gets stuck. Its just that you said in previous post "Sometimes it stucks and restarts." I may try this out. I think I'm going to wait and see what this JVQ-based ROM is like before I do any ROM which requires a wipe.

Slightly off-topic...About my phone...I'm not sure, but I think sometimes the heavy battery drain and restarts are caused by Handcent SMS. I downloaded an app called "OSMonitor" It showed that sometimes Android System is continuously using 40% of CPU, and at those times, Handcent is using 50% of CPU. I guess I should delete Handcent and see if my phone gets better stability and performance. Seems maybe the stability problems were might be blamed in the wrong place. BUT...I really like Handcent...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] pharz:
I'm in a similar situation and decided the only way to get what I want is to put it together myself. This also means you probably wont have the latest and greatest because they might be cool but not always the most stable.

What you can do is, get a deodexed stock rom, install a stable kernel with the mods you need (voodoo, bln, rooted and busybox etc) than use Titanium backup to remove all the things you don't want. presto, you'll have what you wanted... :D
[Galaxy S I9000 General] seraser:
I think the best option is CM7.

Greetings.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] mobidzid:
I have CM7 and must re-charge every 8h... Moderate use. Are other ROMs better battery-wise?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] jedijens:
GingerReal uses very low battery. Have been using it for a day or so, with texts, 8 calls and Youtube watch. Still 30% left.

Really recommend it!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] mammenj:
I would suggest go with stock jvq and kill all unnecessary services such as DRM,Software update, SNS and Network location service.

I usually get 20 hours with moderate use with account synch, push notification, browsing, music, voice calls and other activity.

Again battery drain is purely based on usage, even the best rom with heavy use will drain battery fast.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ogami_ito:
I just screwed the pooch. I installed an almost stock JVQ, then Ficto's Darky8 JVQ Kernal. Worked fine. Then I tried to install a mod and accidentally installed a JVP mod. I tried to replace it with a JVQ version, but that required CWM 2. So then I tried to re-flash Darky/Ficto JVQ ROM. And it would not get passed the Galaxy S screen. I read up and learned that sometimes it requires turning ON lag-fix in order to install a Darky ROM.

Anyway, about what you said...

DRM and Software update I thought are integral parts of system. What is DRM used for? How to disable it?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] mammenj:
DRM is for Digital Rights Managment and Software update does not work anyways, so its safe to kill it.

You can kill it from Settings->Applications->Running Services. It has to be done for every restarts.

best rom

I am the same as you, I was on web Tom but it froze down so much after a couple of days it became unusable so I then flashed continuum v6 RC1 Tom been using it for like a week, so far it's the best jvp Tom I've used, great battery life, and fast, has 1.2 OC and 9 lockscreens I definately reccomend it

[Galaxy S I9000 General] stormbreakerbg:
I would suggest you to try GingerReal. Works extremely well and is really easy to flash. I flashed from stock froyo in 10 minutes. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ogami_ito:
OK. So this is what I did.

Installed stock JVQ with total wipe. Then started the process of re-installing apps. Installed DarkCore 2.8. Problem: It seemed that the light sensor was not working (and I heard many ROMs have this problems.

Then tried to install 9 lock screen. But I stalled the JVP version and that messed everything up. New wipe.

Installed stock JVQ with total wipe. Then SpeedMod kernel. No Voodoo sound. AND, it seemed my headphones frequently disconnected or something caused the music app to constantly go to pause. The may be the kernel. It may be the jack on my phone. It may be the jack plug on my headphones. :-( .

Installed Continuum ROM. Have not tested light sensor (it said that in the Talon Kernel modified light sensor polling, so I have hope). Have not been able to duplicate headphone cut-out, but I will keep experimenting with this. So far so good. Only downsides so far:the phone keypad can rotate, and I don't really like that.

Hey guys,

I am using the latest version of Go SMS Pro which is 3.49 and my Go Emoji version is 1.1

But when I try to compose a message and click the "paper clip" button, I only see three tabs (Smiley, MMS, Go MMS).

When I click the Smiley tab, it only shows the regular Go smileys. There are NO Emoji smileys I can choose from. I already tried reinstalling Go Emoji Plug-in but I still do not see any Emoji Smileys I can use.

Hey all,

I recently decided to root my Incredible S and install the new release of Cyanogenmod 7 for the device. Achieving S-OFF and installing Clockworkmod went without a hitch. However, I remain unable to flash the radio, even after closely following the guide on the cyanogenmod wiki. When I attempt to use

adb with the following command

adb push PG32IMG.zip /sdcard/PG32IMG.zip

the console returns a cannot stat PG32IMG.zip: no such file or directory. When I try to unzip the file through Clockworkmod, it simply fails with an installation aborted. What can I do to remedy this?

My Incredible s is with Virgin Mobile, the radio i'm attempting to flash is 38.02.01.11

Thanks!

UPDATE Well, I took the plunge and installed the mod without flashing the radio. Everything is working except I have no volume in calls. Data, SMS/MMS work just fine. Is this a radio issue? I read that older radios may have this issue, but when I downloaded the recommended radio, I'm still unable to flash it.
[General Questions and Answers] g.braid:
Just a bump for the new issue...
[General Questions and Answers] slsSpeC:
Yes, the no audio during calls is a radio issue.

When you're in the terminal, make sure you're in the same directory as the file location before issuing the following command:
