better battery life and runs much more smoothly.

there are some games still incompatible with it though like java based emross wars web driven app.
[HTC Sensation] nitinchuri:
will this work on Sensation Asia version? will it wipe off all the apps installed on my phone or just upgrade the device?

SuperCID and it will work.

RUU's are stock rom's, it will erase everything but the sdcard.

You will be back on square one. It will not "upgrade" current system.

Hi,

I have installed the RUU (non xe) and it seems everything is working.

I really like it. But i noticed that if i was on wifi network then got disconnected it will not go back to 3g/2g/gprs! the phone will simply stay offline with no data connection until i restart it!

Any one having the same? does anyone know a fix for that?

Or can i flash GB radio on ICS?

Please advise.

Thanks

I see mixed answers with this but can u still get OTA updates with s-off? S-off only, No root, stock rom etc.
[HTC Sensation] 69gm:
I've asked this too and like you was still a little confused. Hope someone can shed an authoritative light on this. :)
[HTC Sensation] chrisw99:
You will get the OTA updates if you have the stock recovery installed as well as the stock rom.

When I first rooted to debrand from Vodafone to generic UK, I wasn't getting the OTA update for 1.50.401.1 when it was available, and it was because I still had clockworkmod recovery installed.

I flashed the original recovery, and the OTA update suddenly appeared.

I still had S-OFF.
[HTC Sensation] 69gm:
Sorry, I'm a n00b...so S-off is okay but don't root yet?
[HTC Sensation] chrisw99:
I think both S-OFF and root are okay as long as you are on stock rom and stock recovery.

Definately S-OFF because I always have been since I debranded and have received 2 OTAs since then. I *think* I've been rooted too, but not 100% sure about that.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skwo:
First of all, Sorry! I know this question was asked like billion times over and over, and the amount of opinions is equal to the amount of the people who comment, but still.

Currently I'm running stock deodexed XXJVO ROM with CF-Root kernel.

The phone never was stable 100%, but the last days are horrible. Waze stuck (need hard reboot), phone turns off at night (=I dont have alarm clock = I late to work), it FCs and/or reboots randomly.

Now I want to get clear about the ROMs. There are 2 kind of them:

1. ROMs based on stock Samsung roms

2. ROMs based on Googles roms (like miui and CM)

Am I right?

Right now I don't have time nor the interest to play with really custom roms (miui/cm) since I'm not sure how stable they are (am I wrong about their stability?).

I just need phone that calls, surfs the web, sends sms, take photos, records videos and allows me to use GPS for navigation while I drive. For this reason I prefer to go with the roms based on stock Samsung roms (again correct me if I'm wrong. Maybe roms like MIUI/CM are stable enough for day-day use without flashing and reflashing the nightly every few days).

I need suggestion for either full ROM or combination of ROM and Kernel that will unleash the full potential of my phone with the minimum lags/FCs/reboots/etc.

From fast reading here I understood that Semaphore kernel is good enough (of course any other suggestions are welcomed). What do you think about combining it with stock deodexed ROM? Or maybe you have other more preferable ROMS (I don't have any preference to specific rom, however there are some things I can't live without and they are: a) NON increasing ringtone b) preferably root c) Ability to theme the phone, All other fixes/tweaks are optional and are in state of "nice to have").

Thanks a lot for reading this long posts, understand me and helping!

Have a good day and an awesome weekend! :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dark_knight35:
I think you should try stock jvu and latest Semaphore kernel.

And convert to ext4.

That's fast enough.

BTW MIUI and CM7 are very fast and stable.

Stock JVU you mean stock, or stock and deodexed?

Should I bother and try MIUI/CM? (As I understood there is also ICS ROMs, what are those?)

hassaan123

Thanks, Ill consider this. Tough I'm a bit afraid about MIUI/CM since those are different ROMs.

Team ICSSGS RC4.2 the best for we till now
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kodon:
i wouldnt prefer miui/cm for gps. i used mintberry for 2 months but after the first weeks of pure stabilty it began to random reboot more than twice a day. reflash, new version everytime the same.

the ram management was also horrible in my eyes. i dont really like the cm kernels. they are updated too fast and it seems that they are never really stable for some reason. my battery life was horrible on miui. also annoying is that you always has to clear your memory manually before you want to play a game which isnt even in 3D. plus 720p is always choppy because they want to use more ram which is taken from the reserved memory for video recording. ah the compass isnt working too sometimes... depends on kernel but i didnt find a kernel which works

i am back on darky 10.4.2 with semaphore kernel. darkcore is also very good kernel with good stabilty and battery but i dont use it because i need voodoo color for my display...

especially for you skwo i would prefer the base versions from darky. they are kinda pure samsung with some tweaks and then you can try the dark core which is brought with and if you dont like it switch to semaphore. the standart theme is also very decent and if you dont like you can still customize your phone with the ota app such as things like camera hack (that annoying under 10% thingy that doesnt let you use your cam) or the exteneded toggepanel.

i understand good what you want. i mean its really cool to have such a great community which is working on so much roms but they are too heavy customized sometimes. everything seems so overloaded and the most skins doesnt fit with they own colors they use. i mean there are so much ics themed roms but with 15 different blue tones, that doesnt look "professional" and make android look like a bad designed mess
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skwo:
Kodon

Thanks a lot for this helpful reply!

I heard the same about MIUI/CM/ICS ROMs, that they lack 720p video recording (which is sort of important to me), and how some issues with GPS, and not stable enough.

Yea I tried darky once, didn't like it. I consider trying it again (with maybe different kernel).

The theme is not that important to me, I just put some AOSP theme that adds the battery percentage indicator. I used to play with the phone few months ago (was a ROM hopper and liked to customize it), these days I'm too busy for all this and just need a smart-phone that works.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dark_knight35:
You can try Faryaab's jvu (deodexed&rooted). It's hear in general section.

I think a jvu/cm9/miui rom is better for you than ics, coz they are bit buggy.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vogie:
CM7 battery life is not good and call is not stable like rock.

MIUI battery life is better than CM7 but is not good. Call is rock :D

MIUI / CM7 video recording 720P is sucks. (temp fix = Change bit rate to 1000000)

ICS video playback is bad and some apps will not work or FC. (still on development)

Stock battery is good / call is stable / video playback and 720 recoding is good / but speed is low.

There is not a BEST ROM for all things.

If u can be happy with low speed stocks are awesome.

Best way: Try one to one all ROMs and choose the best for self needs.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kodon:
if you try every rom for sgs you are busy for the next 2 years. the most roms are in the first week very good till every app fills their cache and the partition is getting fragmented. the only method in my eyes to see if a rom is good is to use it for 3-4 weeks. even the battery does need 2-3 loading cycles which can take 4-5 days if the battery use is good and you want to see how it works when its recalibrated after flash.

especially we galaxy s users need to see others opinion in a thread like that. you really cant go through every thread and search for feedback between the whole bug reports and advices for bootloops

Try MIUI (mintberry is very good) and revert to stock rom if you aren't happy.

MIUI has a lot of new things : it's not only the launcher and themes; Miui based on Ginger is stable. I try regulary to return to stock rom and every time I reflash an MIUI, too many things are missing on stock roms or CM7 !

nope..i bought it first hand(the price was 1st hand)....in a shop..defy+ is really hard to find in russia..:(
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ejstubbs:
Motorola's standard policy is that rooting the phone voids the warranty.

You definitely were not sold a brand new, unused phone. You could take it back to the shop for a refund - but then you wouldn't have a Defy+, and you say they are difficult to get. You might be able to negotiate a partial refund, but keep the phone, on the grounds that you understood you were buying a brand new phone. You say the phone works fine so that might be a good choice for you.

If, however, the phone ever did develop a fault, then the fact that it is rooted would mean that you couldn't get it fixed under warranty (although Motorola might agree to fix it, for a fee). Before deciding to keep the phone it might be worth checking whether you can unroot it - although that might depend on how it was rooted in the first place. The other thing to bear in mind is that Motorola's warranty only applies to the original purchaser - it doesn't transfer with the phone. So if it's already been registered with Motorola by whoever rooted it (you should be able to check that by entering the IMEI number on Motorola's support web site), you might still have no warranty, as a second user.

Here is what i found;

1.Firstly, you need a rooted LG Optimus Black.

2.Find the file“TWL4030_Keypad.kl”, it’s in /system/usr/keylayout/

3.Backup the file, copy or rename.

4.Then open the “TWL4030_Keypad.kl”, scroll down to 3rd line from the bottom, it should be “key 95 GESTURE”.

5.If you want to use your phone’s “G Button” as camera button, change it to “key 95 CAMERA WAKE_DROPPED” (Once you launch the camera app, you can press the “G button” to take a picture immediately)

6.If you want to use use your phone’s “G Button as power/lock button, change it to “key 95 POWER WAKE_DROPPED”

7.Save the changes and reboot the device.

You get the trick right? With a little luck you can remap it to anything you want. You can write volume i guess... But volume has 2 options "+" and "-". So even if you manage to do it you will only be able to remap one of them. It's either "volume +" or "volume -" Since G is only one button.

Thanks a lot man!

The Volume i mean is just an ordinary app from the market called "volume toggle free". So an instruction about remapping the gkey to any app should work. How?
