If class4 8gb sdcard is cheaper than the price difference between 8gb and 16gb, then why not.

Need other's input on this. I never liked darkyy's rom though.

Meanwhile, try reading about 3button combo fix.

IMO, Insanity rom is the best. but I recommend sweethoney 2.4.1 to beginners.

sgs II is available now in singapore right? maybe the price drops because sgs II is coming shortly

AH, then you can go into recovery mode! to select, use back button

many rom makers now include phone recording apk. very handy especially when calling customer service. can save evidence

Zeam launcher is another light launcher.

Have you enabled all tweaks in recovery mode? I never experienced a hang using custom rom and speedmod. only occasional lags.

Yes. Ext4 lagfix

Hi, welcome to the galaxy s thead!

Jv1 firmware? IMO, it is an alpha quality gingerbread firmware. Better to flash froyo custom rom to get the best battery life, speed and smoothness.

Cannot use those method as they are for eclair and froyo only. only cf-root is available for gingerbread. But I suggest to flash stock rom first.

It is in /data/apps folder. Sort.by date if using rootexplorer

True. Afaik, Imei corruption happened with one old leaked froyo firmware only. never heard it happen again.

True, flashing to stock firmware is the best, followed by a custom rom of your choice.

After you have finished flashing dxjpe froyo, flash speedmod kernel to get 2e recovery. http://touristinparadise.blogspot.com/2010...to-install.html

2e recovery is only needed to flash cwm zip files like sweethoney rom.

What is your current firmware? No need to wipe because the wipe version of that rom will automatically wipe for you.

p/s the above sentence sounds really awfully

Added on March 18, 2011, 2:28 pmI think he can just follow the instruction from that hardcore's blog. It doesn't matter whether it is 2.2 or 2.2.1 because he is going to flash custom rom anyway.

anyone tested microusb to hdmi? I'm not satisfied with the 3.5mm jack to rca picture quality.

Kernel and theme affect battery life the most. Radio affects battery life as well but not as much the former two. To get the best battery life:
- flash custom rom like speedmod. Or even better, flash kernel which has underclock and undervolt feature like super-optimized, damiangto or insanity kernel. Then you can uv&oc your kernel.
- flash custom rom, they usually comes with optimized theme which reduced strain on the battery
- use battery saving apps like juice defender, battery-fu
- use GSM mode only if you are only on 2G network



No worries, all sifus here are happy to help
Flash speedmod kernel by odin, then you'll get clockworkmod recovery(CWM). Using CWM, you can install any custom rom of your choosing.

You can straight away flash that 2.6 non-wipe. If you come across trouble, you can always use odin to flash stock rom.

1. Download speedmod odin version:



2. At http://touristinparadise.blogspot.com/2010...to-install.html step 4:
Click pda and select that file. (speedmod-kernel-k13c-500hz.tar)
No need to extract anything. If you follow the instruction carefully, you should be ok.

I think installing kies is only required to get the usb drivers working. Otherwise when you plug-in the usb cable, your phone will not be detected by your computer. So, if you have installed that usb driver x86, no need to install kies.

kies has to be closed because it'll interfere with phone detection and maybe odin flashing process.


addon: htc incredible s has been launched. For a high-end phone. rm1999 that looks like a good deal compared to nexus s

If flashing sweethoney, just put the CWM zip file in your sdcard, go to recovery, find the zip file and flash.

I have more inclination towards sweethoney rom .

from the thread:
download the wipe version.
INSTALLING WIPE VERSION OF ROM (All Versions):

1) Download 2.X WIPE ROM (Multi CSC)
2) Copy the zip file into your root of internal sdcard (not external!)
3) Go into Recovery mode (3 button combo), you'll see CWM Recovery
4) Select "install zip file from sdcard"
5) Select the ROM file
6) Select "YES"
7) Wait until it has finished
8) Then select "back" and the "reboot the phone"
9) Do the first boot!
10) Now you have Simply ROM Installed successfully!

wow, just found out about folders in go launcher ex. For folders, I use simi folders. but it's only a widget for homescreen.

other launchers:
- adw
- zeam launcher
- hmm, i'm sure there's more.

I was scared I'd brick my YP-t9 mp3 player during upgrading to official firmware That was in 2003, first time flashing a firmware.

i've never used that kernel that before. someone please help? try go into recovery mode and see what's there.

Maybe because we love our phone and would like to see others enjoying it as well. I know I do.

meaning draw less volt from the battery. thus, giving longer battery life. if too much undervolt, can make the phone unstable. how much you can undervolt varies from one phone to another so like Fornaxlife said, step by step.

This one? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=967297

Not sure if it is only for deodexed rom. You can just try it because reverting to stock app is easy.

insanity rom has this, sweethoney rom 2.4.1 as well I think.

there's only one way to find out, flash it

No problem, glad you guys like it.

Anyway, who wants to be the next TS?
