If that's true and I believe it is. Flash the cm10 or euroskank nightlies.

A lot of people like aokp, as well.

We are all still waiting for official jellybean. I think September was mentioned. Not sure if Canada gets it sooner than America or not. Europe usually goes first if I recall.

Remember you have to root your phone first. Read the stickies in the dev section

I'm starting to get the OTA update from Wind, but I think because my phone is rooted it keeps failing to install.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] fr8cture:
Is there any way to get a mod or a theme that would give AOSP Roms the page transition animation from TouchWiz? I love the way those transitions look. Out of all the things you cant bring to AOSP this seems like it would be fairly easy.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] shimp208:
Yes you could but you would have to make some edits to the framework.jar or framework-res.apk file, first you would have to find the xml file where the transitions are located and then you would have to edit them to be as close to the TouchWiz transitions as possible it might also involve some smali editing. After you make the changes push the appropriate files you modified (I.E framework.jar or framework-res.apk), make sure they have the correct permissions, then test to see if the transitions work.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] fr8cture:
I don't think I'm capable of doing that. Lol.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] shimp208:
I guess an easier way would be to find a home launcher that has a transition animation that comes close to the Touchwiz style transition animations.

Hey there! Its me again... I'm wondering if I hace to change rom or not, but will ask either way...

What's the best, or what are the best rom 4 the phone that can actually fit in 150Mb of System partition?

I'm actually using build 3 from tejas12, as it seems to be the bugless around, but been seeing lots of roms around and I just would like to know which rom, o another rom to test...

150 System partition gives me 220+ data partition... Sadly, I use some apps that can be name as memory eater, most of them are at SD but even that way, I still need the space, actually I just hace 25Mb free, just close to the notification of the lack of memory =/

Any help? :(
[GT540 Optimus General] shadovraven:
If you need more space for apps, create sd-ext and use Link2SD, you'll have more free space on your phone's memory.
[GT540 Optimus General] MauroG:
Its not the same than just move then to SD ?
[GT540 Optimus General] -Grift-:
Not 100% the same but similar
[GT540 Optimus General] bataya:
It is not same, for link2sd you need ext partition. Diference is that with link2sd you can move everything (lib, dex, app) what is not best to do.

About your question... just download any rom you like, recovery version, and use 7zip to shrink it. Remove some apps that you dont need, you can remove media files that you dont need to. I do that all the time, and it work without problem.

This ROM is the best - #2

[GT540 Optimus General] Huinars:
Hey, instead of making new post I decided to bump up this one.

I wanted to ask which ROM should suit me best - I use this old (but good) phone mainly for calling and as tracker for running. So for me most important thing is GPS strength (I've tried several ROMs and some find signal really fast and some take up to 10 minutes) + not freezing when playing music + sports tracker app (Endomondo/Runkeeper) is open.

So far I've tried:

1. PolishVodka's ICS and JB ROMs are almost perfect. Very rarely it freezes, but amount of free RAM is less than GB and running music + sports tracker make my phone sluggish. Anyway props to PV, I'm looking for alternatives not because his ROM is bad, but because our device is just too old for new android.

2) Zoe ROM 6.5 and 7 - honestly I just don't see where is speed in this ROM. Yes, there is more free RAM, but for me it runs slower than 4+ ROMs.

3. Miroslav's 2.3 clean ROM - liked this one because I could customize whatever I wanted and nothing preinstalled + had like 90 MB free RAM, but even after changing system language text under icons was still in Russian.

So I want GB rom (because they run better and more free memory) with strong GPS fix. Working WiFi deepsleep could be nice since I have phone connected to wifi almost all the time, but it's not priority since I leave it charging almost every night.

So I have been following this all day in the SGS3 forums (see here) and the servers got hit so bad that many users were without data AND calling for up to 5hours. Obviously this is a big deal and tons of people are switching but just be patient. My wife is going to the store (you can do it on-line too) tomorrow to set it up for us. I'll post updates if we hit any roadblocks.

Edit:: Ok so my wife went to do this today and she said it was like a mob scene. Said that there were people everywhere and the employees were cooking out promoting this whole thing. Took her about an hour to get through the line and get everything switched over. I got a text at work about a hour ago and it said that our plan changed. I check and it is unlimited and no interuption in service either.

ive tried using flashtool with a stock ftf, ive tried with an update.zip and flashing through CWM but all to no avail.

im seriously at my wits end here.

ive never used SE droid phones before, so this is a bit overwhelming.

can anyone give me any pointers, or some sort of idea of where to go from here?

Just installed CM10 and I still have my IMEI.

I have tried several times to let it get through Activating which eventually results in a message to Cancel or Try Again. Anytime I boot the phone this automatically tries again. I have tried battery pulls, removing and inserting the SIM and reflashing CM10 with no additional luck.

In addition the first number of times my phone number would not show up in Settings -> About Phone but after the last try, a number shows up but it's mostly 0's and has no similarity to my actual number at all.

Any clues?

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] raginginferno:
T

Are you talking about wind mobile in canada? Wind & Mobilcity uses 3G/UMTS/HSPDA frequency 1700. Xperia S does NOT support that frequency. There is a reason why they have so few phones in their line up. Wind & Mobilicty does not have 2G/GSM/Edge. Only Rogers/Fido supports GSM.

Sorry Xperia S has zero compatibility with wind. Unless your talking about the rest of the world... wind uses other frequencies in other parts of the world.

I just had this problem today with my i9300.. Me and my friend were out hiking, i was using my tracks and taking a few photos, we got back to my place and he asked "what is your battery out" I pulled it out and said 39% then went "Woah i left and it was at 39%" two hours worth of hiking and the battery didnt drop 1%??? so we were looking at our stats for about 20 seconds on mytracks and then we finished so i put it back into my pocket after turning off the screen then 5 seconds later the phone made that 'time to charge' sound and i pulled it out and it was at 10%. i was like.. wtf? it was 39% then 10%! First time I've seen it do this. No root, or custom rom, just stock UK rom from last month...

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gizoid1337:
I recently bought a for parts Captivate off of Ebay, Description saying the unit would only power on and that the touchscreen wasn't working.

I looked at the photos and determined that it must be a hardware malfunction, I have some spare parts to try and see what I could do.

(since my previous cappy fried after a botched job re-applying the unbrickable mod that had worked once before)

I receive the phone, in near new condition, no battery and dented back cover, and I thought "okay, no problem" and got to work trying see what was wrong exactly

I was unable to determine what android revision since I would reboot after lockscreen, so I flashed it with various roms, including AOCP 2.2, Slim Bean and at&t GB's that had been rooted with odin and cwm for slim bean and aocp and cm10

So the following symptoms happen based on which android revision I use

2.1 stock

- phone reboots seconds after the phone has booted to the touchwiz lockscreen, touch screen has no response, I can't say it's 2.1 definitely but could be since every other rom works fine except any signal or data other than wifi

2.2, 2.3.X and all the way to 4.1.1

- SIM card detection - does not warn of missing sim or bothers to detect once inserted

- IMEI is unknown other than the one on the sticker, which is in one piece

- Baseband is unknown even if I flash a modem

I've replaced the sd card/sim card daughter board that also connects the loud speaker to the mainboard. Still nothing. at least the sd card and speaker work.

So... any ideas or should I use this phone like a Galaxy player minus the front camera?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m1batt1:
There could be a lot of things wrong with it since you are at least the second owner and don't know the full extent of possible damage.

But lets assume all things are functional but calls and data. I do want to clarify though, other than the 2.1(?) flash your screen responds as normal? If so try getting a one-click version of 2.2 and flashing it back to stock. Then just for good measure download Kies, which is Samsungs official firmware update client. It should take you to 2.3(Gingerbread). Now is the time to go into your phone settings and check your IMEI. Make sure it matches what's under the battery. Hopefully reverting back to stock with official software will restore your IMEI.

I've personally never had my IMEI get screwed up during a flash but after reading countless posts, and responses regarding the issue it seems that a lot of time if you are missing your IMEI the baseband version will show unknown as well. As for not showing a missing SIM warning I am at a loss but those are the best steps I can tell you to take in an effort to recover your IMEI.

Also if the above steps get you back in business make sure you do a backup of your /efs folder before moving ahead with any other flashing of ROMs to avoid a possible repeat of the same issues.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gizoid1337:
I'll give kies a try after downgrading, thanks
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gizoid1337:
Kies says connecting... and then after maybe 5 - 10 minutes later says could not gather info on GT-i9000.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m1batt1:
Hmm well I'm going to say you have i9000 bootloaders installed on your cappy. So Kies is getting confused and can't find the right software for your phone...

You could try doing a Gingerbread one-click with bootloaders for the cappy but you run a serious risk of permanently bricking your phone when you start messing with bootloaders. Of course as it stands you don't have more than an mp3/video player.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmtheiss:
My suggestion would be to go ahead and grab one of the stock one-clicks with I897 bootloaders. As long as you don't pull the plug during the 1-2 seconds it's flashing those, you'll be fine. Once you've flashed, if you still can't get it, you can try the /efs repair that's in the development section.

It sounds to me like the SIM card slot could be borked, though. If that's the case, I believe connexion2005 (Josh at mobiletechvideos) offers a service to repair that for a nominal fee. If getting it working as a phone isn't a big deal, then you can just ignore the SIM slot repair and get one of the Captivate Touch roms and make it a media player.
