Gents can you please recommend a ICS rom that has about 200 MB + of Ram memory available for user?
I heard that Polish blood meets my requirements but apparentlly there are some issues with it - problems with wifi, face recognition doesn't work etc.
I would love to try a few roms for myself but I don't have a phone yet, I will be buying it tomorrow morning and a few hours later I'm going for holiday, without access to a computer for the next week. So I would like to quickly pick up an ICS rom, personalize it to my liking to go on holiday with a fully working phone.
Would appreciate any help.

I did search...that's how I found out about Polish blood rom. Couldn't find any other rom with 200 mb of free memory.
AOSP Polish blood + XNeo AOKP v1.2.431 from sirkay
WiFi working.
WiFi problems are down to router you are using. Some people have problems with any(or at least most of them) rom, while some have no problem at all.
Thank you. WILL CHECK both roms

Hi ,.
I'm experiencing some lag when opening the Contact or the Phone app on my SGSII.
this happens only the 1st time I open these apps, ...and only after upgrading to ICS 4.0.3 XXLPQ
made wipe Data and Cash. still having same issue.
Any help please ?
Which rom are you using!
Also this is a problem in many ICS roms, Its a problem in the build itself!
So you are not alone!

Official ICS 4.0.3 for SGSII
IML74K.XXLPQ
Yup that build is not a stable release eve from Samsung. They did not even care to make it lag free. I dont think there is anything you can do about this. The release is messed up. Try using some other custom roms!

I can recommend hydrogen-ics.
Have tested many kernels on this rom and they are all very smooth.

Since you're new you need 10 posts before you can post in dvelopment (I'm not sure if they changed that or not). What I did when I was new: went ouround in the themes and apps section and just posted some compliments on themes and screenshots.

You should install mean rom 4.2 and then flash dodova 5.4 kernel.. It provides the best balance of performance, stability and battery life. There also weren't any issues with volume on my end. Its so good that even tho ive upgraded to Mean ICS I have a nandroid of that exact setup

Flash 4.3 then flash Dodova's updated 5.4 or 5.5-test kernel separate. The 5.3 kernel that installs with 4.3 gives a lot of people reboots.
4.2 and 5.4 test was awesome for me work great till I switch to mean Rom ics v0.91 all good just minor issue .
it's all good, battery life is awesome!!!!.... now im looking for a rom that is aosp which one do you guys think is best? with large battery duration and good performance duration... Thanks in advance
every time the phone sits so screen off initializes , apparently the phone completely shuts down at some point ..
a quick tap of the power button to activate display and phones boots to htc logo
any suggestions please I already tried turning fast boot back on and that didn't help at all
edit : running meanROM 4.2 - it did it with .2 kernel and still with .4
I have no idea, I get the same thing, apparently that is a bug they haven't fixed. At least my phone reboots once a day tops with the kernel... Let's ser if we can find out!
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA
i hope so and if it's a bug it has to be only a very few people using meanrom that encountered it ..
I dont mean to hijack your thread but this is directly related to meanrom 4.3 and headphones. Have you noticed when using music apps if you plug in a set of headphones it causes the fast forward/skip option to be pressed repeatedly? Im kind of wondering if the headphone jack for our phones has the abilities to use a set of headphones with a fastforword/skip button on them and perhaps its just my jack thats deffective. Just curious if youve ever noticed something similar with your phone.

There is a fork of Mean Rom in the CDMA development forum that removes sense as much as possible. I forget what it's called. On a pure aosp Rom, some stuff is broken so I suggest a desensified Rom instead.

ok, here goes. I've got an ST15i (Xperia Mini) that I've unlocked using the test point method with presently the kamarush's KRsH Kernel v3.0 ICS kernel (+ WiFi Modules) but planning on moving to the expeacer EXtended Stock Kernel.
my question is, is there some way to use/enable FM radio without plugging in earphones/headphones etc.? I know the headphone/earphone wire acts as antenna but there must surely be a workaround, right? I mean there are hundreds (thousands?) of cheap chinese phones that all allow FM radio playback without plugging in a set of head/ear phones

Don't change to Extended stock kernel.. KRsH Kernel is much better.. Even w.r.t. battery life..
I would recommend FXP CM9 or CM10 btw
Iam pretty sure that phones have build in antenna. So i thing is impossible on our not ready phones

I was thinking of asking this very same question next, i.e., which of these two kernels gives best battery life. You just answered an unasked question! Thank you!
Also been thinking of flashing a ROM. CM9 is still RC. Is it good/stable? Had been thinking of RealICS 5.1 or even 4.1 (as some people have issues with 5.1)
Hi
perhaps radio could work with a simple jack and an antenna-looking stiff wire connected?

Haha np
And FXP CM9 or KRsH CM9 are the two CM9 ROMS I've tried and both are stable.. But, FXP CM9 is better.. It has more modding options..
Why not try FXP 132 CM10? It's also very stable and quick... And a lot of the bugs in 131 are eliminated in 132..
But if you still want CM9, then I would recommend FXP CM9 ....

Thanks a lot! Might as well try them all, one by one, right? Some people say go for RealICS cuz CM9 has more bugs, others (like you) say the exact opposite. Now that I have finally unlocked the bootloader, might slowly start getting more and more adventurous over the next few weeks (only had the phone for like two months now - purchased new sans warranty).
Off topic, my almost 3-year-old daughter loves the phone, loves talking tom cat, ben dog, doing jigsaw puzzles and coloring on the phone

Well, in that case you would have to try yourself
I still standby the ROMs I've suggested BTW
And yes, explore the modding world, but be smart and careful when trying new stuff.. And always have a backup ready before trying something you've not tried before or/and something that you aren't sure about..
And no matter how careful you are, you are bound to have some problems or the other, but in that process you learn a lot.

Awwww
Running on a Xperia Go, and I'm getting tired of struggling with my phone, stock firmware was incredibly slow and bloated, FXP Cyanogenmod 9 worked most of the time, when it didn't freeze or just turn off my phone, but now they stopped development.
FREACK's Cyanogenmod 11 works beautifully and fast, when the Wifi or network connection isn't going down 3 times a day
This is not a ***** thread though, I realise and respect the amount of work it takes to port a ROM to an unsupported device. All I'm asking is for a ROM that is not going to let me down, no freezing, working camera and video, working data and network connection, working Wifi, that doesn't lag to hell, GPS, etc. Example, a ROM for daily use.
I just want some feedback, what works for you? I don't need the latest greatest Android port (thought that would be nice) and I don't have time to install and test a new ROM every 2 weeks.
And some of you may ask, what is the 1% I don't care about working? well FM Radio, what is this, the 1950s?
Many thanks in Advance.
Maybe that explains why FXP gave up, this sub is dead...

Hi dude,
You could use the AOSX rom developed by wanxp, that thread is active and almost all the features are working except fm radio, wifi direct and music a2dp, this is the rom that I use atm cuz I hardly use radio and wifi direct.. in fact I've never used those features -.- You could also try Munjenis CM11, but then again the bluetooth fails sometimes! Even though it says that it works properly in the OP. It doesn't. Frankly, the BEST LAG FREE rom that I've come across is the CM9.1 rom! Unfortunately its not available for download anymore -.- and I deleted my backup of it after I ragequit after my Xperia Go broke and I started using my Note -.- But I managed to fix it and I'd like to use CM9.1 again.. Can you please upload it for everyone or PM it to me??

Thank you SO SO much! Haha I see you've decided to stick with CM9! Great choice! I only say that this is the best rom ever is because it doesn't start to lag over time and everything works great(except for radio.. but you can always download an app!) and gaming is great with no lags(I usually test with Despicable Me and Most Wanted2)! So thank you very much!

What bugs in CM9 ._. But all JB roms have call lag :3
This is definitely the best ROM I've tried in terms of performance, the best two features in my opinion are the battery and its smoothness.
I don't know if I can share this link without the permission of the Dev but it's so good that I feel more people should know about it.

I kept the 7.6.18 firmware I had and it seems ok with this rom. I'm sorry to bother you, but I can't find any root for this device, there's no option to enable it, is this rooted? Also home button on lock screen isn't working, I mean, if I soft touch it nothing happens, hopefully there's some setting to enable it, but couldn't find it.

Yeah, sorry, I have that firmware, I wrote the numbers in the wrong order... I made a clean install, so I don't know why it's laggy. I don't use fingerprint, so I can't unlock the screen without press power button or double tap, which I don't like since I'm used to unlock with soft touch of home button and no fingerprint.. I'll try it for a bit, but without root and these things I don't think I'll keep this one on my phone. Thank you anyway for your replies.

OK, I understand.
For me this ROM gives me the best battery life, I play Clash Royale every day and I feel I get the best performance and battery with this rom. I've tried JDCTeam and I got worse battery.
Anyway, we are lucky to have such a variety of roms to choose from!

For sure, having a lot of roms let's you decide which one to pick up according to your own needs and we're lucky with mi5!
I'd like to have a slight better battery too on JDCTeam rom, but it's has just what I need in other terms, so I think I'll stick with it, even if this rom has also the nice split screen feature which I don't think it's available on JDCTeam..
