I was wondering, is there any good 2.3.3 ROM out there?
I have now the Elelinux 7 RC0 2.3.2,
and I have reboot problem(the device reboots once in a while-2 times a day.)
Thank You,
Daniel.
Why not go pure CM7 , never rebooted on me for good 2 weeks. Well I dont use it as much though (firm phone)

does it have any bugs?
its just the nightly so I am afraid.
I am hopefully selling the device next week and the costumer asked for a good 2.3.3 ROM(I am getting my self a Atrix in august!unless something better will be available of course.)
Hmm, well, there is no real "good" alternative yet. But why wants the customer gingerbread, I get this will be his first phone? Why not try VR13? 2.1 though only but fast.
Or you could wait maybe something else will pop up
Well I think 2.1 is to slow,
and he prefers 2.3.
maybe there is a good 2.2 alternative?
Just try the VR13 and write me how slow it is...
The same team has also a good 2.2 I think 1.7.x
Oh and how can someone prefer gingerbread on a phone that has not even 2.2 official. Also there is one phone out with 2.3 and thats the Nexus S, why would the guy buy a Hero if he already prefers 2.3... where did he try the 2.3 or why he wants the 2.3 ?
Dont sell him the hero, be responsible, those guys which go for numbers wont be satisfied . Sell it to someone who appreciates what the phone can offer.
Oh and yes the CM7 has bugs, to answer your previous questions its a nightly
If you want to sell him, then sell him the stock Hero.
He should try Roms by himself.

Stable, but non-OSS. Best of ROM
Second Cronos . Been running all the Gingerbred and am currently running 1.9.0 and it is very stable.
Best 2.3.3 rom to my knowledge
I flash my hero with Elelinux 7.0.0 rc2 1.4 and Its the best for me, it has a normal dpi not the moded one in tastyginger which i love. its also pretty snappy and light since its not a sense rom and it also based on cm7 nighly but it rlly stable i installed all my apps and then fixed permissions through rom manager then booted on ra recovery and fixed mismatched apks and it runs as smoothly as ever never force closes.
any question on it just ask hopes the best for ur hero
I have a 2.3 rom for g3 test only. From HTC.
If you want try. You can ...
I don't know how to install it.

My v10d Firmware Optimus One just got a new v10E firmware update notification today. Has anyone updated their phones to this version? Are there any new features in this update?

It's not new, but evidently for some regions it is. It's merely the 2.2.2 update which fixes some bugs (security related).
Actually we got our Android 2.2.2 update with firmware v10d update last month. So this is obviously something different. Anyone tried it yet?
Havent tried it yet...
Some people still running stock
Just kidding No offense.
Custom roms require that you have time learn how to install them and also void the guarantee. Not all people have the time or skills or want to put their phone at risk. In fact, most regular phone users do not.
it could be ginger bread, early surprise!

Yup, because they like to root their devices. It seems 2.2.X is not happily rootable.

The problem that i see with using ROMS is that they come with many bugs. Especially CM7 comes with buggy GPS. I might start using custom ROMS when LG stops upgrading Android for us but up till then, Happy with stocks.
Now, has anyone tried the new update?

I am on a very slow net connection not to mention constant disconnection. It will take me forever to download the update.
did a big big big mistake by updating it....will downgrade it in a day or two
Why? Could you post the firmware info after the update?
why do you call it a mistake? is the firmware bad?
it laggy & slow,
if u use Launcher pro or SE Arc launcher it became hell slow , & now it take even more time 2 boot the devices,
few improvement is opening sms & coanct is faster than before ,
main thing it lag only in stock launcher is good,
is the touch screen bug still there? what about sd card unmounts?
my battery is draining faster with the new update!! goes only 7-8 hrs... earlier it used to go 14-15 hrs.... and the sad thing is it still draining after i downgraded to 2.2..
plz help...
After giving us a very good phone, LG is f**king things up. On my stock rom 2.2, I had 48.5 neocore.
Then LG updated to 2.2.1. Neocore dropped to 38.
Then LG updated to 2.2.2. Neocore. Dropped to 32.
You know what's happening? Neocore has limits of about 60. And we already touched 60 in cm7 by mik and in Andy's gb also.
Their highest end phone optimus 2x, coming for triple the price, has, I guess almost this much Neocore only. So, they don't want to offend the owners and prospects of their high end phones. So, I think, they are systematically downgrading O1 instead of upgrading.
Lets see what happens with official gingerbread.
I wish I am proved wrong.

Good thing I am still on v10b. The original stock that came with it. Never upgraded, never will till Gingerbread comes out.
And I may be wrong but not even the developers here have been able to get a permanent solution for phone reboots and / or SD card unmounts have they?
Also gingerbread upgrade won't be marked as E after D. It will be marked with v11 or such probably as it is a huge upgrade and V10b/c/d/e just seem minor updates as they are.
if u want something different on ur device then just flash this rom n still i think something upgrade for that rom like Gingerbread theme but still its awesome without any bugsjust try

Dear Forum users,
Recently I bought a Samsung Tab 10.1 3G (P7500), I have done the 3.2 update OTA however, the main screens are pretty rough (not smooth).
Could you please, based on your experience, tell me:
1- Which is original rom (US Verson) is the newest?
2- Which rom is the fastest (no OC)?
3- Which "cooked" room is the best, in terms of speed, smoothness and battery life?
Also...
The tab takes several hours to recharge, while it is not a MAJOR problem, is it a hardware or software problem?
And last....
Why is Samsung SOOOO slow to release ICS and/or patch Tab 10.1?
Please Help!
Try flashing the latest Overcome ROM.

Welcome to the XDA. You'll find a lot of information by simply using the "search" function. New threads complaining about the lack of "smoothness" on the stock ROM, charging speed, and Samsung's release of ICS are not in short supply around here. If you just have to complain, maybe keep it in one of those threads?
Hello!
Thank you...
Slack04, Actually I am not only complaining. I also made a few questions.
You see, I also have a Galaxy S2 phone, and the S2 thread has an original list of firmwares divided by android versions.
If funny tho, almost in every forum there are users who adopt the "maybe you shouldnt post here" style...
Please dont just read the last few lines of my post!
SaneinOne,
Thank you!! I have already tried the overcome rom. But it is missing a lot of apps, and they dont give enough instructions on how to install the missing apps.
Also I dont know what to do with the "patches"...
Lastly it is not really smooth... Maybe I should try it again and read the whole thread.
Thank you!
Just hold your breath and wait patiently for ics ... just like I have. So far all roms are pretty much little laggy on the home screen.

You titled your thread "why is it so rough?" and then complained about "roughness," charging speed, and something about how Samsung is "sooooo" slow (last one I don't even get. Which manufacturers are you comparing to?

all tab take several hours to recharge.
the 10.1 takes about 5 hours to charge from 0 to 100%
if you want to compare with the Ipad 2, it can take up to 4 hours
I don't think the difference between 4 and 5 hours can be considered as a problem.

You can't find any "official" tablet with ICS yet, (ICS on Prime is coming soon) so how can you say that Samsung is SOOOO SLOW to release it ?

ICS on Prime came out last week.
I, too, wonder why no ICS love for the SGT yet. Then again, I'm just impatient!!
I was just wondering what you guys thought about ICS.
Is it worth downloading now, or would I be better off waiting for the Official Samsung release, whenever that may be?
Waiting for Samsung would mean that I would have to download, preferably, through Kies. However at the moment when I connect to Kies it tells me that my phone is unable to be updated through Kies... could someone help me out with that please?
Thank you in advance.
I would probably wait for an official release from Samsung. Some of the ics roms currently out are great for everyday use, but there are still some bugs.
You wouldn't have to update through kies when the official ics releases. Someone on xda will definitely make a flashable zip. Hope this answers your question.

Hello New_World_Order,
if I were you, I'd wait - not only because of existing flaws (maybe speed, battery or bugs), because it's unfinished,
but also because of the fact that not every app is running with ICS right now.
Many users are currently reverting back to GB and wait because their favourite navigation or something else does not work.
So waiting will have a lot of advantage...
Greetings Psy

Personally, I am enjoying using the latest Samsung's ICS leak, XXLPB, and I am definitely not going to Gingerbread. This ROM is pretty stable, and even TouchWiz looks better. However I understand that many apps are not optimised for ICS, and while some widgets don't support some of its alternative skins (Mobility Flow's Animated Weather Clock, for example). Nevertheless, if you prefer using official updates via Kies instead of trying the latest (and often unstable) leak flashable via Odin, it just may be not for you.
Thanks to the two guys above,

I found it on another site.
I'm waiting for the .zip file to download, then I'll do it and let you know the results.
Only problem being is it will take a while as I have to wait another half an hour after this file finishes downloading to then download the file needed to root it.
I'll come back in an hour or so!
I'll come back in an hour or so
Usually followed by HELP then how do i remove ICS .
But at least you have had a lick .

Make sure that it is full Samsung and no custom rom because you should first flash original one when you upgrade from GB.
Greetings Psy
I would recommend waiting.. I just installed an ICS rom and it keeps dying and booting on me..
It is recommended to wait, but you can try it now
Okay so I'm back.
ICS is installed, and I'm just using Titanium Backup Pro to restore all of my apps + data.
(Whilst I was writing this, Titanium finished restoring, or so it said, but there were no apps? Any idea as to why this has happened and how to fix it please?)
First look, I'm pretty shocked.
It's not much different compared to GB.
However, what has been added, is great. I love the way that double clicking the home button brings up a task centre type drop down with which you can close your apps. Great idea, similar to the iPhone.
Overall, I recommend waiting for the official release, but if you're impatient like me, then sure, go ahead and give it a go.
Not all apps are working on ICS but almost all do. I am happy with Resurrection Remix ics v9.4 Ultimate XXLPB 4.0.3 FULL-Wipe ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1436854. It is very stable fast and good battery. No way am I going back.

Well actually depends of what are you trying to do with your ROM, right now all are experimental and certainly had bugs, if you like testing flash now
Btw i'm using the Resurrection ROM of westcrip too and it's very stable.
Wait, wait, wait
while XXLPB is the most stable so far
it still has a long way
a lot of bugs
a lot of random restarts
not to mention not all applications are compatible
I took a look at the Resurrection ROM last night before hand, however the latest ICS was released so I went for that.
Everything works perfectly fine, the only thing missing is the flash player on the browsers, which im sure someone knows how to fix!
Overall it's quite good.
Testing the battery life today as that's important to me due to college 9-5 on most days.
I'll give you guys some feedback tonight about my first full day!
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
If you are rooted or plan to root, I would recommend Westcrip's Resurrection ROM 9.3. Battery seems good so far, fast and almost totally bug free. The official ROM will not be totally bug free & probably heavier on the battery. The only drawback is many of the apps will not work with ics. If you have a problem and have followed the instructions for Resurrection, it's likely that the problem is an incompatible app.
My suggestion is go for it, it's better than Gingerbread and you can always install the genuine version when it comes out.

We got Android 4.0.x and 4.1.2, thats already fantastic for a 2 year old phone, soon 3 years...

We can only hope and see. It would be amazing to see if samsung really does it, cause its been 2 years and the phone is still getting updates!
I'd love to see the S2 get the update......but I doubt it will happen.........
As another poster said.......the model is nearly 3 years old now....it's also 2 generations out of date (S3 &S4)......I'm sure the phone is capable of running the update, but I'm also sure that Samsung isn't going to continually update an older phone and deprive themselves of income generated by purchases of newer phones. The S2 has been updated more times than any other phone (cmiiw).....but now (I read somewhere) that they've ceased production of the phone, it wouldn't surprise me if they ceased support for it too........

So I presume that means you'd like all the Knox crap/locked down bootloader then ?

The thing I don't understand is why people keep believing those rumours. First 'they' said 4.2.2 would be the final update, then 'they' told us Samsung would skip that version and would jump to 4.3, and now both of these things didn't came out, and suddenly 4.4 would come to our device?
Like said before, the step from GB to JB was already quite big, so don't expect anything more from Samsung.
I don't understand why people get hard whenever a new firmware drops. Let's face it, Samsung's firmwares are complete/utter crap. What people should be getting barred up about is when sources drop. Sources allow developers to make better roms. Samsung releasing new firmware minus sources = so what ?

Why still GB? There are official Samsung Updates for your S2. The latest one being 4.1.2. So go for it bro!
actually I don't mind if Samsung released 4.4 for this phone, even if they didn't we will always have custom roms .In my opinion, Samsung is a great company it has supported this phone for a long period of time.I think that this phone is better than some phones being released this year and I wouldn't like to get another phone( I dont think its time to upgrade )
