Sounds good, but no rush from me, would rather have good quality work. Glad you all work this hard for us.

How do you know if you have the stock firmware on your phone.
By not flashing any other ROMs?
.. what kind of question is this?

I have done root, clock mod, AP mod, and changed the boot animation. The reason I was asking is I was just curious so I would know if I will get the OTA updates.

What you asked previously was "STOCK" firmware. If you haven't flashed a ROM then you're on "STOCK" firmware but you did modify some parts of it with MobileAP so I don't know how that would play about.
Simple Solution.. its on the stickied post
IF I ROOT, WILL I GET OTA UPDATES?
Yes. Rooting will not prevent this, unless you flash a custom ROM that will block receiving the OTA update. If you do receive and download the OTA update, you will lose root. Typically within hours of the OTA becoming available, thanks to some fine XDA folks you can get the update WITH root. You would simply need to download and flash the update like a normal ROM.

Even if you dont get OTA, you wouldn't want it anyway because OTA gives the update to people in GROUPS and not every single person gets the update at the same time. So you can get yours two weeks after the first batch got the update. When a OTA is released, somebody will post the link for rooted and non-rooted users to manually push the update. So there isn't a need for OTA. Just look around the forum for it when its actually out.

Yeah it just seemed weird asking if you have stock or not. It honestly doesn't really matter because in the end, you're still going to get the update even if it isn't OTA.. you'll just end up manually pushing it which is better than OTAing.

That's because for them its a chore but to justify it they get paid. Here, we do it because its something we actually ENJOY doing (well.. not all of us like to help people) and we're more enthusiastic.
I never deal with customer support unless its something out of my hands.
When you flash simple mods like MobileAP or a new Battery icon, will it pose problems when you update, say to Froyo in the future?

I can see how he can get confused. I was a little when I 1st started paying attention to the whole Android scene.
Stock could mean a few different things to different people.
1. Stock = NOTHING CHANGED period at all. not even mods.
2. Stock = Rom that shipped with the phone with a few mods
3. Stock = A flashed "true stock" rom
4. Stock = an Google Android STOCK rom aka AOSP
I still go by the saying that their is no stupid questions just stupid answers.
another thing, thanks for at least posting this in the correct forum haha. A lot of the other members get really PEEVED when they see postings in the wrong area.

I wouldn't think that it would cause any issues updating to 2.2 with mods like the battery icon. I'm unsure of the MobileAP though cause 2.2 has it built in. I would prob remove that to be safe before you update. I'm still learning too so lets wait till a more seasoned member could give ya a better answer.

2.1 has it built in too.. its just the U.S. versions of the Galaxy S has it removed because of the carrier.
Just think of "STOCK ROM" as the default ROM without any modifications. That's the best explanation of it.
OK so i have been watching xda for a while now and have been through several phone and rooted all of them. i have made roms before but they have just been personal roms. this is the only phone that i haven't seen a rom for that i own so i thought i would take a crack at it. so far the rom boots up but that is it. i would like to start a team to make a rom for the tmobile lg optimus l9. i now this account that im on has noob status written all over it but im not a noob and im well aware what goes on so if you are in let me know. thnx

Couple questions..
Do you have source that you can post?
And what methods did you do to get a ROM set up on this device?
Ok sorry I was sick for a little bit but I do have a source that I can upload and I will upload what I was able to do.

You could hook up with these guys who are planning a rom:

Also in the "Original Android Development" sub-forum there are some roms being started.
It may be better if Devs team together and pool resourses.

L9 is at the stage where Group effort is very important. The idea which one can conceive is not necessary other would conceive too. Different persons can solve problems like this (not all) faster than a single person, by sharing ideas and suggesting changes and helping each others in changes and experiments. Goodluck to all.
I need to flash a new rom to my friends phone. He will give me the phone for one night, so I don't have time to experiment. Could you guys recommend me a rom and possibly a kernel? He won't flash his phone much, so I need a rom and a kernel that will stay speedy and stable for a long time. I'm considering flashing CM10.2's latest nightlies and it will be the best if I don't need to change it's kernel so he would be able to update the rom in the settings. But maybe there is a better kernel for it, or a better rom, instead of CM. He prefers the rom to look like AOSP, not touchwiz.
P.S. As I said he won't flash often as I do, so he needs the rom/kernel to stay stable and speedy for a year or so.

I'm not asking this for my own device that I have a lot of time to experiment. I do that on my Galaxy Nexus. I don't see why they would close it. If hey delete it after I get an answer, that I understand.

Bit more responsive? How fast do you want? I've never had such a fast and responsive phone. I've always been a flash junkie but I don't even feel the need to root not alone install a custom rom. The speed and battery on this phone is simply amazing.

I would suggest you not to root but it's too late anyway.
Have fun playing with it.
Thanks for all your replies, yes it is quick but the stock rom does it no justice i can tell that it could be quicker, and i have to root so i can do certain things that i need to do.

Get TWRP recovery 2.6.3.3. on it and flash you some CM11
Of course, first make a back up of your current rom so you can always go back to it.But you just got it, I enjoyed the stock rom for a bit before I starting flashing other roms. Then again we didnt have many to flash in the beginning
Houstonn's 4.4.2 PA has been good to me. 12/24 release is very smooth and great battery life.
OP enjoy your new device, go check out the Development section for all the great work....ensure you are in the correct Model forums.
How come this phone is out for over 1month now and there are no custom roms for it? Referring to the G850F European version here.
I want to get this phone so bad, but having to deal with fail touchwiz will make me sick... I want a proper slim rom on it

Nothing yet brother. We are all waiting for some Devs to get interested in this phone so we can do the Root, Rom, Recovery thing! Samsung screwed it up by making it exclusive to ATT when the popularity could of gone higher if it were in more wireless companies! Thanx Samsung! Just give it time. The phone just came out and hopefully a Dev will jump on this phone soon!
I will soon buy this phone!!! In greece is unlocked to any carrier and almost every shop sells it...i hope they change the AT&T thing fast!!
I have bought this phone with the hope that cyanogenmod arrives on this device. Maybe the problem that blocks the interest of developers is the chipset exynos 5430...

But who cares about knox?

we must try to find help if we wont ROM recovery come to us
I also try contact with Note4 m8,who develop Recoveryfor exynos model
but still dont get reply
What happened to the threads in the developer sections?
there no development thread at all m8,only chit chat
Correct. There were a couple in there but they were deleted. Just wondering why. I understand no actual ROM's are available but there were discussions.
AFAIK they were moved under "General". It was just "Join Forces" and "Root Galaxy Alpha" threads. I don't remember that there were any other threads.

Decided not to buy one anymore, not worth it since I will just be getting annoyed at Samsung's TouchWiz... Will recheck forum in 1month or so near Black Friday and see if there's anything new.
Till then, I wish you gl, it's a great phone (perfect form factor) but the OS on it is utter fail and I wouldn't last a day, would be switching to my S2 with SlimSaber ROM in a glimpse
