I just want to know your experience about this roms and please suggest best rom for our most loved Galaxy S -advance. Please don't give your suggestion by just reading others post, give your suggestion only if you have tried it.

This is not a constructive post. Comparing ROM's and the dev's is not a good thing.
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arffrhn:
Not only is it not a good thing but it is prohibited here in XDA to compare roms. The mods will definitely close this thread soon.

To the OP, you should read the thread of the rom and search in general section there are already lots of threads like this. And all was shut down by forum mods but you can still read the reviews/comments.

My advice: Read, read and read. Even if you think you have read enough, just keep reading.

I think this thread can help s advance users in a way..

Everybody has there views. People use what works best, if this thread gives a little knowledge in that means. Then that's good.

Comparing ROMS n DEV's is totally diff thing. Few devs of not so popular ROM n modify to request immediately, n devs of best ROM r hidden God. So I feel it's not the point here. It can b a little helpful thread n that's what this forum is bout, increasing knowledge, atleast I feel so.

Rest moderators knows the best..

Sorry if anybody hurt,

Sorry if anybody hurt because of this post. I have tested all this 15 roms. I am not hardcore android develper, i am basically wed deveopler but i wanted to try every available rom for my device and wanted to stay in touch with this new development. I am tracking nearly all in I9070 section for long time and keep testing everything. I bricked my phone more than 10 times but i learned a lot. But i know many testers visit this site , try 1 or 2 popular roms and when this roms not works upto there expectation or keep crashing they stop testing and return to stock . I just wanted to give those many persons like me this available options and want there reviews on this different roms. I have given links to all roms so they can download them. Many ROMs are very good but not popular or neglected. So please post your reviews only after testing them.

There is no point of comparing devs or ROMs. People use what is best. Xperia z ultra is far superior dan GS4. But that doesn't mean that GS4 is bad. This is just a kind of review. I am very satisfied with Light JB 1.2 except few minor bugs.

Dear Sir,

I never wanted to criticize any rom , i just wanted to help other visitors and testers to find available roms and i want them to test this roms . All roms listed above are very nice but some of them are vastly neglected , i thought this post might help those roms to become popular and which might lead us to perfect rom for our beloved galaxy S-advanced. Many developers stopped there development and or concentrating other project just because there rom is not popular. I never thought this will hurt others . Putting that poll along with this post is my biggest mistake :(

CM rule: No ETA's. With that being said, current nightly of cm10.1 is good and can be used as daily driver if you don't mind:

1. Wifi tether and wifi direct not working.

2. Blurry image and video hangs on latest youtube (the app fault not the rom, you have to use older version of youtube and it works fine).

3. Camera bug in instagram (but just take the pic first and later edit in instagram and post. I always do that anyway so it doesn't matter at all).

4. Battery issue (can't charge offline).

5. GPS (you hve to calibrate it first then it works just fine).

Choice is yours. :good:

[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androiddoctor:
Hey Friend If You Are Looking For Stable ROM you should Stick To Custom ROM,

For Our Galaxy S Advanced There Is No Official Custom ROM, All ROMS come with Some Bugs.

If You Want New Feature In Your Device You Have To Compromise With Stability.

Some Stock Firmware Based ROM are More Stable Like Galexperia But Don't Come With Much Extra Feature.

CM10.0 Is Now Very Much Developed and stable.

Diegio working hard on CM10.1 and I M Sure He Will Release Final Version Very Soon. Untill now 21/06 is more stable than others according to me.

I installed timely on my device and had an alarm set. Then decided that I did not need the alarm and deleted it. Nevertheless, the app still woke me up three hours earlier than I wanted it to. So naturally I was very unhappy, and I uninstalled it. Then the worst possible thing happened... THE ALARM STAYED BEHIND. Now the alarm noise goes off every 10 or so minutes and there is no way for me to turn it off. I have no other alarm apps on my phone, there is no alarm setup in the android clock app, and it is still using the tone that I had setup for Timely. I'm becoming really upset because the last thing I want to do is factory reset my phone, but it seems to be the only way to fix it... I really need some help, maybe there is a file that I can delete from my phone?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drsoran2:
Just uninstall the Timely app should fix it! Or try force stopping it beforehand!

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] szamot:
Things were good for a while but now it all has gone to ****s.

My BA is having issues and not only with BT. I have managed to enable big store using exttools.exe and repart_doc.exe. The only issue is that I guess that has wiped the hidden rom where all the preinstall apps were.

To make a long story short, I had reinstalled the original rom, from a rom dump I did right when I got the device, however, the device, even after hard reset does not run the usual set up utilities that it did and install the junk my telco has included. While for the most part this was not a big deal now I realize that some of the fixes were needed.

For example I used to have BT xxx.3500 now I have xxx.3900 all find and dandy but with both versions my BT will not stay up for more than 2 minutes before it drops the connection.

On soft reset I get the following error message.

Cannot find "storage" ( or one of its components) Make sure the path and filename are correct and all the required libraries are available. Bugger

So now the question is - IS there a way of making these apps run and if so, how or is there another fix that can be done. MY BA is bleeding and it is dying and it is pissing me off.

After all the restores I can see the Extended_ROM on the PPC once again and all the apps in it, just can't run any of the darn things.

BTW, as my signature says this is BA from Telus and it is running on CDMA. which btw is missing from the WWE version on http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_Versions

Any insight would be appreciated.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] ChrisSpera:
If I understand everything correctly, you've effectively wiped the Extended ROM and are using it, along with your Storage as one big "persistent storage" folder on your BA, which is what those programs were designed to do. Everything you did, functioned as it was supposed to.

If this is not what you want, then you might try reflashing your device with the last ROM you got from your carrier and see if that restores everything.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] szamot:
I did just that, and I did flash the device with the "virgin" rom which I have uploaded to wiki. But somwhere along the line something just does not jive. While preforming a hard reset the device would normally auto config itself with all the junk that the telco has put on the device including a number of patches and what not. That function does not run anymore, which is what causing me grief. If I unhide the ROM I can see the files that are supposed to run, including the autoexec.exe all there. I try to unlock to copy these files and run them manually but I am not allowed to copy them anywhere. and while I try to use EXTTOOLS.exe to unlock the ROM thing just go south. It says that the ROM is unlocked but I am still not able to copy any of the files from the ROM.

szamot,

there is nothing availble yet for our phones to update them or make them any better...

I can't believe you tried messing with your harrier... just wait a while until sprint releases their update to the ppc6600. (fingers crossed) we should be able to do something then...

all of the roms you see here (so far as far as I know) are for gsm units, and their roms will NOT work with our cdma's. WAIT!!!!!

Hopefully you can get things back to normal.. otherwise your gonna have an expensive pile of nothingness to work with.

good luck.

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] szamot:
Actually I uploaded the rom because it seemed to be the newest one at the time.2.04.00 WWE, I also upgraded the BT to xxx.3900 which all worked fine. However somwhere along the line the Ext Rom got screwed, even though I can see it I can't get at it. Not all is lost however I just procured the contents of the rom from a new device, and even though I run all the fixes and updates and patches the PPC still runs like crap. Even hard reset does not get the unit back to its original state.

I had a very basic question. I own an international htc one xl. In terms of rooting my phone is it any different compared to the US AT&T version.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] exad:
Depends where it's from. There are minor differences such as lcd and radio across most devices which doesn't really matter with regards to rooting but there was a phone or two I've seen recently which may be very different. Tell me what the top portion of your hboot says and I should be able to determine from that if there's anything you need to be wary of

Reboot the phone and hold volume down when the screen goes black and keep holding it and you should be brought to the bootloader
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] twistedddx:
The software 3.17.708.5 is from HTC hong Kong. Many of these hong Kong phones have shown up in Australia via importer mobicity.

To get hboot. Power down the device, make sure fastboot in power options is off first to ensure the thing does turn off. Press and hold voldown and then briefly press power button while still holding vol down.

A white screen with details should show.

Compared to at&t,

-Different frequency bands

-You can unlock on htcdev with stock Cid making it easier.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
I have one of these Hong Kong phones which I bought through Mobicity, it's been perfect the whole time I've had it. If your phone is indeed the Hong Kong One XL you will have no problems using anything on this forum.

To root it all you need to do is unlock the bootloader via htcdev, flash TWRP recovery, flash rooted ROM.

Unfortunately the site is in Polish but they ship abroad. Just drop'em an email (http://otulfilcem.pl/kontakt/)

They make every piece by hand so you can order a pouch for a device with a keyboard or for a device already in another case. Just tell them what device you need the pouch for and if needed what accessories you need to fit into your pouch.
