Galaxy S I9000 Leaked Froyo ROM: Possible to port to Vibrant? (without.source code)

Well, as you know a froyo test build for the Galaxy S I9000 recently leaked, and I was wondering if it would be possible to port it to the vibrant, Perhaps even without the source code?

It is possible through Odin, but there are lots of bugs. Check out http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=740558 by eugune373. basically turns your vibrant/captivate into a i9000. Read on.

Ah I see. Thank you.

I starting to think development is not going so well. I've lost most hope here, I just hope samsung releases froyo soon. Cause I doubt there will be a good custom froyo by then. By this time the evo had tons of froyo roms that were very stable .

Gingerbread for Galaxy 3

Hi All,
I think there has been a lot of enthusiasm about Gingerbread theme and themed ROMs. But any idea whether there would be a Gingerbread 2.3 ROM for G3?
Is there anyone who is working for the same? Since Cyanogen mod does not still work for G3, one of you would need to take the initiative to make a custom rom running Gingerbread for Galaxy 3.
bye
Nandi

anyone present here can only modify roms at most and give some fixes they cant build a whole rom, only samfimware or Samsung guys can do that and this is not the right place to discuss that go to general forum.

hi
said right my friend or u can also use the Q & A thread
Thread moved to general

I don't think that there will be a 2.3 ROM for the G3 in this life. 2.2 is not released by now and you ask for 2.3?

Samsung has not listed this phone for 2.3 upgrade and its not gona happen for ever.
The only chance we got is using CM7 and port it for SG 3. I have started working on it, hope it gets me atleast some where.

Nope none of the CM version are supported for SG3

Cyanogen + galaxy 3 = 2

Officially yes, and you are not alone. If you want 2.2 now flash a 2.2 rom. Go to the development section and the stickied thread that starts with READ FIRST to learn more

@braveBuddy Great to know you're working towards porting CM on G3..hope more dev.s join you to make it happen..

Need a little bit of Rom/Root/Kernel help

Hey everyone,
I'm an X G2x user, and over there in "G2x" land I rooted my phone first.
Then I flashed Clockwork recovery on it
THEN I had a smorgishboard selection of "Roms" to put on my phone.
Here's where i'm confused with the Galaxy S 2, and Terminology really..
What "do we have" here with the SGS2 so far?
Just rooting it? I see over on the dev section people talking about all these kernels... what is that? are they like Roms? Has anyone mad a rom? can we flash it like clockwork mod recovery?
Just a little confused with the differences in terminology and procedures over here on the samsung side.. thanks

No custom roms yet, no CWM either. Just kernels and root....the kernel is a bridge between applications and hardware basically. Terminology shouldn't be that much different really.

Kernels are the base interface between OS and hardware and part of a rom
Has anyone mad a rom? no can we flash it like clockwork mod recovery? no
Far to early for all that SGS2 been out a week + devs in many cases do not yet have SGS2 ( donate one to them ) .
Devs are not getting paid for all this work so as and when they find time and the money to buy SGS2 .
SGS2 is being worked on and no doubt more in the future .

Bear in mind things don't always get posted as soon as they're done. I don't like releasing things that I can't test, so I've got some stuff for as soon as mine actually turns up...
The stock issues have slowed things down a LOT.

You can use Odin to flash newer ROMs and to root the device...it's pretty easy.

They're just different, CWM just doesn't need a PC to flash the FW...that's all.

I9100XXKP2 Ice Cream Sandwich + Download Link + Second Leak

Here it is again folks ICS I9100XXKP2 by SamMobiles.
Wednesday we presented you with the first beta release today the second firmware for the Galaxy S II.
This rom still a CUSTOM build by Samsung and still with TW.
Samsung created this firmware on December 8 2011.
As you all may know we only offer stock ROMs so you will not find this firmware on our usual firmware page.
This rom is a bit faster but still with a lot of bugs.
HowTo flash.
ODIN + .PIT + PDA/CODE file.

Happy Flashing!

It is sad that Android moved to 4.0.3 and Samsung still could not get to 4.0.1 stable
This rom is just only faster, still buggy. Do not install it on your daily phone...

Gonna flash it this time and see how it is
Hope it can be useful to CM9, i don't care about Samsung's roms

i mean codeworkx said for a some days he has this firmware too and there can´t help to build our cm9

Its still in testing, remember that. They still need to incorperate TW into the stock framework. At least were getting official ICS builds unlike any other phones.

3 threads on XXKP2 already. man people are really eager for ICS

yea men ics make people crazy in there brain XD

I've only ever flashed 1 ICS beta and that was a few weeks ago,i love the look of it but personally im not gonna waste my time flashing any more beta / alpha builds until such time a stable ROM you can use every day is released, no point really when you know there are going to be bugs.

I know! Crazy - Timestamp people!
Anyways - glad to see it's getting out there (even though it's just a traffic generator - no other reason to spread them out) but glad to get them anyways! I know it's still "not so good" of a leak but still worth a shot

People's attitude around here is really starting to get on my nerves, it feels like everyone here are 12 years old.
Has any other big company released a stable ICS rom for their phones? No. As far as I know, the only other company that released anything is Sony Ericsson, and THEY only released a half working alpha build for developers only.
Everyone needs to go care about something else for a little while and stop acting like spoiled children.

Hi people! Just a question. Is there any clear instructions on how to flash this??? Or it's the same way to flash like the first alpha? thnks

I guess because it's a leaked ROM there is no changelog. BTW a zialigned version is already out:

This lol
I remembered when I first got my tab (in short, I traded a laptop, Xbox 360, and games used for a brand new SGT). First thing I did was rooted it via some app. Then I proceeded to install busybox for some reason, then thought "meh I feel like going back to stock" so I just uninstalled busybox (ignoring whatever message it said about not uninstalling it).
Tab didn't reboot, then I panicked and tried flashing something with Odin (not sure what it was, but I ended up trying to fill all the boxes in Odin with some files and then flashing). It failed
Eventually, I then just gave up trying to keep stock and went with Overcome
So I'm pretty lucky to still have my tab lol...
Nowadays, I find it easy to try out different ROM's (I always just restock according to Overcome's GB guide, then proceed to flash a custom ROM and Kernel)
I'd recommend spending some time on Froyo stock for a bit, then eventually trying to update to either stock Gingerbread, or another stable Gingerbread ROM (such as Overcome or Hyperdroid). Then do a bit of research and then try to go to ICS.
Just be careful on what your flashing, always double-check things, and check out people's feedback

I believe the roger's tab uses the GT-P1000 kernel but I'm not sure...do a quick search or ask the guys here.
Oh and btw, HumberOS build is quite outdated compared to the releases from Slim's build which can be found here. This ROM .zip already comes with kernel so it should work just fine on your tab I guess? And don't forget to flash gapps after ROM, but I guess that's pretty obvious judging from the other devices you messed with lol

I also bricked my Tab a few times when I started flashing ROMs on it not too bad tho since it's pretty much impossible to hardbrick the tab afaik, I never did and I flashed some pretty dumb stuff on it lol just keep a GB Stock ROM in your pc to flash with Odin/Heimdall and reflash it whenever you softbrick your tab that's what I used to do that or Overcome ROM.

Welcome!
Just a quick note on flashing the tab. As you already noticed, you should get on Gingerbread bootloaders first. The rest is up to you, all current ROMs for our Tab can be flashed on top of them. Seeing you got over the softbrick with Overcome, you should be home free already.
PS: also make sure your tab is charged at more than 10% before you start flashing or you might not be able to get into recovery or download mode. It may look like a softbrick, but you just need to let it charge...
Peace and happy flashing!
