I Rooted my I9000M using this method (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1379650)

I then installed CM9 nightlies.

Everything works fine, except for the phone. When I make a call, the phone slows down to a near stop. When the call is over, the phone resumes normal speed.

I searched around and can't seem to find the solution... any help would be appreciated.

thanks.

So the other day I tried to flash Slim ICS on to my i9000 but I failed. There's like three methods you can try between if the first one doesn't succeed... Non of them worked for me. I still got the same boot loop on every method, every time. What am I supposed to do? Can someone please be so kind and write me a step by step tutorial of how to install Slim ICS. Worth mentioning is I'm on Darky's gingerbread rom JVQ v10.2 RES.

You flashed ICS Kernel first? Tried to install the Rom twice? First to install Kernel and second to install Rom?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JayJ-1974:
Step 1. Boot into CWM recovery.

Step 2. Wipe data/Factory reset.

Step 3. Mounts and storage> Format / System.

Step 4. Advanced> Wipe Dalvik cache & Wipe Battery stats.

Step 5. Install from SD card...

i. Flash Base_3.6.zip

ii. Flash Base_3.6.zip again

iv. Flash 3.6_I9000_Essentials.zip

v. Flash any other .zips you require like face unlock

**Step 6. Flash an alternative kernel like Siyah or NEAK, SOD reports from users of stock kernel. I flashed Siyah from the beginning when I updated to 3.6 so can't comment.**

Reboot.

Happy days!

**EDIT: SORRY don't flash Siyah or NEAK because they are GT-I9100 kernels!! Ma bad!

I tried to install the rom twice without any luck. I haven't tried to install ICS kernel first though. Do you recommend one?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Killerboy92:
I've followed step 1-5 with no luck whatsoever. I haven't tried step 6. I will probably end up in a boot loop after step 5 so how do I install the kernel? Should I put the kernel on the SD card together with the rom and the essentials and flash the kernel before the reboot after step 5?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JayJ-1974:
You could flash your I9000 with another ICS via Odin and then try??

OMG! I'm panicking! I just cannot get it to work... I've tried everything! Done all the methods recommended. Flashed semaphore ICS 1.1.1 and it still won't work! The only taste of this "well spoken of" rom I can get is through slim ICS v2.6, it doesn't boot loop but when booted I can't seem to get any 3g or signal. So not even that works. I WANT THIS ROM SO BADLY! Please someone help me!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scubadude:
Follow a thread like Team ICSSGS for dummies or ICS333 to get ICS on your phone then follow steps below (from Slim website).

From another ICS ROM

1. Download my latest Base + Essentials (from downloads page download zip not md5)

2. Enter CWM, wipe data, format system ( in mounts and storage)

3. Flash Base*** AND Essentials, Reboot to system.

*** - If the base flash is too quick ( < 5 seconds or so), reflash base before flashing essentials.

You can also clear cache & dalvik cache,clear nstools & init'd (advanced menu). You should clear cache & dalvik cache, nstools & init'd before flashing semaphore. Also once in ROM it is best not to actually use nsTools but rather use semaphore app.

No need to clear battery. My battery is as good as ever and I've never done this and I've flashed a lot of different ROMS.

if you are coming from gingerbread you will need to flash a modem.

Get an ICS modem from here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1158783

anyone recommend?

I use an adonit jot when I play Draw Something. It has really upped my game.

GREAT
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Sirence:
Be careful though - this stylus easily scratches the preinstalled screenprotector. Make sure both the stylus and the screen are clean before drawing as dirt under the stylus will damage the screenprotector. Also, don't apply to much pressure on the stylus.

Hey guys,

I'm gonna keep it short. My dad has a galaxy s and he's too fond of watching videos. Unfortunately, on every ROM I've tried, video playback isn't smooth at all. One of the reason I guess is the second core and hardware decoding issues whatever, but there should be a solution.. which I am not able to. I feel really bad for him, help me out?

He bought my a Galaxy Nexus and uses the i9000 himself and I really wanna help him out. :confused:
[Galaxy S I9000 General] TigerCourage:
Videos play great for me on CM9 Noghtlies with stock kernel
[Galaxy S I9000 General] rkaede:
+1 stock kernel also works fine for me.

what video format you tried ?

anyway galaxy s is only single core. cmiiw
[Galaxy S I9000 General] samhawk:
hi guys.

hi TigerCourage and thank you. i was wondering about Video Playback and HD recording on ICS!!!

[Galaxy S I9000 General] yahyoh:
i'm om Aokp every video running smooth

btw dont try to play 1080p on the device it's not gonna work with H/W decoding it will lag as hell
[Galaxy S I9000 General] samhawk:
thank you

why, you couldn't make "lagfix"
[Galaxy S I9000 General] vasumit:
MXPlayer works pretty good with the Galaxy S ICS Roms.:)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] samhawk:
i use XXJVU is working good with watching videos:)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] yahyoh:
there is no lag fix this problem with codec not capable to play 1080p that why its lag

btw what the point of playing 1080p on 480*800 screen :rolleyes:;):p
[Galaxy S I9000 General] dcarr622:
Confused by the OP's question: do videos not play at all? Or are there certain codecs/bitrates that are posing a problem?

To be perfectly clear: the term "lagfix" is essentially a filesystem change from RFS to EXT4 and is only applicable for Samsung ROMs that use RFS. All AOSP-like ROMs like CyanogenMod are using proper file systems (ext4 and yaffs2) to begin with so there is no "lag" to "fix." Consider the lagfix term deprecated :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] bufferpl:
720p videos in wmv format do not support h/w decoding, therefore they are very slow. With mp4 or mkv it's all fine though.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] sbnaul:
Do give dice player a shot... :D
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Octhellion:
Playback of 720p mkv's is fine for me on both Slim ICS 3.6 and the latest CM nightly with MXplayer/BSplayer.

But TV OUT is really bad though. 720p lags so much I only get about 2-3 fps. And lower res videos show a lot of screen tearing on the tv during scenes with a lot of movement.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] phermey:
i would like to get rid of the contact pic when on the phone and in messaging. i dont have facebook installed so i have zero pics assigned to contacts. so what i get is the standard dude with a big smile. the same with messaging. i would rather not have the contact pic next to every single text.

i am running the latest aokp with nova. and i do not want to put in a full blown theme because i really like the one that came with it. i have seen a few topics that talked about phone apks and such but it seems like that too would take me away from the theme.

what can i do? thx.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] votinh:
Don't know how to do a whole batch but for each individual contact, you can Edit then tab on the pic then select remove picture.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] phermey:
i just tried it. that only works if there is a pic stored for the contact. what i get for options is take pic or choose from gallery.

thanx anyways and thx for the fast response
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] cdromo90:
go through the other ICS ROMs. and find the one you want,(the message apps) theres bound to be one you find just as good bro. you can always extract just the messaging.apk (or converstations.apk) and move it over to SYSTEM/APPS on your phone, with a root explorer on R/W. rename your current messaging app to Messaging1 or something and keep it just in case you want to go back.

as far as i know theres no way of takeing off just the ICS Avatar Guy. hope i helped!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] phermey:
thats what i was afraid of. what i need to do.... is learn to code. not the easiest thing to do though when ur 37 and a legal mmj patient. seems like if i knew what i was doing... i could go in there and at least make the size of the thing smaller on the phone. it fills up half of my screen and is blown up so much it looks really pixelated.

thanx for telling me where the apks are located. i might just start diving in and see if i can screw it up.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] votinh:
You meant you want to remove the entire empty template?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] phermey:
yes

edit: trying to edit within es file explorer is impossible i guess. i can get into the apk and see all of the xml files... but there is no way to edit the margins and/or image size. ill keep hunting. might just start dloading roms like cgromo90 advised.

i just remember this being a non issue when using touchwiz. trying to get back to that while still keeping the badassedness that is aokp.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] khenault:
What about using a different messaging app out of Google Play? Or try the CM9 nightly.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] HaruSoul:
CM9 has the same messaging apk
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] phermey:
The messaging isn't as important as the phone.

The more I think.about it... the more I think I need to take a pic of something simple and just use it for all of my contacts. Or.just download a PNG of the android robot.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] LiLChris06:
I looked in it for Sammy rom, but couldn't find a simple way of removing it.

Might have to dig into smali for that one. :(
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] phermey:

It looks to be better this year than it was last year. I'm just happy that I'll finally get to see Alice Cooper perform (a)live.
[Off-topic] plainjane:
I've been four different years, it gets worse each year. I have never paid to go, I work a few hours and get to play the rest. I'm liking the lineup this year, and I'd actually consider going (I didn't go last year), but my brother's graduation is the 9th, so no such luck.

Have fun, though!

I was looking into volunteering so I could get in free, but I just shook that off and gave them my money (maybe next year, if the lineup is as good).

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KV10:
Hi

To start with, I'm a complete noob so sorry about that.

I got an x10 mini pro last year for my birthday. I don't remember the android version it came with but somewhere during the beginning of this year, I updated my phone to android 2.3.4 running on firmware was .62

Anyway, the phone comes with pre installed bloatware and the new update stuff like the 3d camera (which I never use and don't want)

So, I set about the scary task of rooting my phone. I tried z4root and superoneclick. They didn't work so I used Flash Tool 0.7.1.0.

I did a lot of reading and spend a lot of time going through tutorials before starting.

First, I flashed .42 firmware on the phone.

The log said that it was flashed successfully. I tried rebooting the phone but it gets stuck. The screen shows "Sony Ericsson" (the text) and it dissolves into blue color. Then it loops again. So I guess it's bricked?

PC companion doesn't read the phone so I can't use that.

I tried using SE update but it gives me an error message (I'm on Windows 8 so it could be the Java)

Flash Tool doesn't recognize the phone anyway.

I can't enter flashmode or fastboot mode.

Half of me wants to throw this phone against the wall but the other half of me just wants to fix this.

HELP????? :(:(:(

Edit: OK, now it won't even go to the boot screen. Its completely dead. When I press the power button, it vibrates but the screen is black. No LED light either. :(
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] martirio3000:
Well i had bricked my phone too.

It was sawing sony and sony again and again.

It wasnt recognized by seus or PCC either but flashtool could detect it at least.

And Just a question your phone stopped working out of nowhere? i mean not even the led would light?

You did something. didnt you?

edit:

After i research i found this

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=826455

Let me remind you a thing.

You have to keep holding back and then connect your phone with the PC.

EDIT AGAIN:

try uninstalling every single app wich interacts with your mobile also uninstall all the drivers in your computer for your phone and then reinstall flashtool and install all the drivers (for me it worked once... i dont know why but th drivers where not working correctly) from flashtool

I really like the ICS Messaging app but I'd like to be able to install it without replacing TW messaging. Anyone know how I would do this? I know there's an ICS messaging app in the market, but I don't like it for various reasons.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scarmon25:
Name the ICS mms.apk to mms2.apk and push to system/app. Set permissions to RW/R/R and reboot. When its don't booting you should have two messaging apps in the app drawer.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sandwich11:
I followed your suggestion but I still have only the Touch Wiz launcher in my app drawer. I renamed mms.apk to mms2.apk, copied to system/app, changed pemissions to rw/r/r and then rebooted.

I'm wondering if I need to install mms2.apk with package installer? I started to try this, but I get the message "Replace Application. This is a system application. Do you still want to replace it?"
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scarmon25:
I would back up the stock messenger then try to install. If it doesn't work just uninstall and replace it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sandwich11:
OK, I tried installing ICS messaging and let the installation replace TW messaging - ICS messaging wouldn't work...just kept crashing when I tried to open it. Tried a few reboots with no luck. Went back to TW messaging for now.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] KBizzle:
Hey, there is an ICS messaging app in the play store.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scarmon25:
Yeah. If you did all that and still didn't work then you may want to just try the one in the play store for now. Once all the leaks stop and an official build is released. I am going to make a touchwiz mms that mimics the ICS mms and release it. It wont be exactly the same of course but I have some really cool ideas to try out. Until there there is an abundance of themed mms apks around you can use.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sandwich11:
I'll just stick with the touch wiz mms for now. The one in the play store has ads, and it looks bad even with the ads removed. I like the idea of a TW/ICS blend mms, so if you make it I'll try it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scarmon25:
I'm gonna do it for sure. I have all the pngs ready and just want to wait for the final build. Plus I am having trouble getting it to decompile properly so I can edit smali. But that's another deal entirely.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] locoboi187:
I tried this and pic messages don't work so I had to go back to TW messaging app
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Success100:
Aokp has stock ics with no tw mms app. works fine.

aokp rom is awesome. Check it out
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sandwich11:
I ran AOKP for about a week and it's cool, but I missed the little things about TW. Like the split mms and email apps.

I'm really not into the whole pink unicorn thing either.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scarmon25:
I like Touchwiz at this point for the full functionality of it. Once source drops and TCP and the others can build from source. AOKP will be may favorite. I like many aspects of Touchwiz and will always mess with it. The wife will not run AOSP ROMs so I have to for her little tweaks. But if I had a choice between fully functional Touchwiz and fully functional AOSP. I would take the AOSP. But I understand what ya mean about the little things on TW

Battery seems good, No FC's so far, and no problems with flashing.

Im not sure about Stunner but with CM9 it uses its own kernel, so it is not based on the infamous and dangerous ICS leaked Kernels.

Whichever you choose make sure to read all the instructions and gather as much knowledge about the process before you attempt to flash.
