[Q] Ex Newbie... Back again.. Please Help - Galaxy Spica General

hey everyone, i used to have the spica i5700 (loved it) untill i dropped it down the toilet and broke the screen.... anyway i upgraded to the Galaxy S.... I have just had the Spica fixed now and have gave it to my better half...
The only thing is i think its running on old FW... i did customise it. it runs on LeshaKs eclair build with samdroid.... update 2.1 update 1
I have noticed that Froyo and even CM7 is available for Spica. But my misses isnt into all the hacking and stuff i just want a more up to date firmware so it doesnt have to be a custom ROM she will be happy for Stock
I just need some direction on how to upgrade to something newer, and to keep the multitouch function and the apps2sd.. i remember it was confusing i had to partition the sd card and lots of other stuff. But with having the Galaxy S and modifying that every week i forgot how to do it to the Spica.
can someone help me out or forward me onto the right path ???
Thank you very much.

[Q] cyanogen mod 9 or 7.2 install on a stock firmware of 2.1 update 1 tecl mexico

hi everyone right now im on an errand for a friend of mine, i've been searching and i haven't found something that can serve me, i have found that i need to upgrade to froyo to install cm9, well in fact my friend will be fine if i just can put gb on his defy so if it is a real mess to install ics on this phone i think i will stick to cm 7.2 or 7 it doesnt matter i just need it to work fine and that he is able to install some apps that my firend isnt able to, i havent done root so if someone provide me with a good way to do it i would apreciate it a lot.
Does not mind whether you want CM7 or CM9 - first you should upgrade to froyo, best way through moto RSDLite program.
Upgrading to froyo will let you always downgrade to froyo again and you will have a way to any proper CM7 or CM9.
All info u can find here and here
U have to root, install sndInint, check whether u have green or red lens and choose any proper CM7 or CM9 to flash
Always do all steps as in threads - then u will not get into trouble

[Q] Best rom for droid pro?

Hi everyone, hope you are ok
I want to change my sister's android, she has a droid pro , from Argentina 2.3.6 no root, and was coming here to watch the roms and stuff ( I'm not a noob in this, i have an lg gt540 and i have done everything with it lol)
But i'm kinda confused since it seems that roms are not for any countries...
So my question is this
what's the best cm7 rom out there? or the best aosp out there? I don't want cm9 or ics because i think it's not well developed for this phone yet, but maybe cm7 or aosp ginger is ok
please help me with that! and obviously the first step will be root, i tried z4root and universal click root with no success so any help with that too!
and if everything goes wrong, i always can turn back to default with rsd lite and the argentinian xml isn't it? thanks in advance!
pd: if anyone know if changing your android system in Argentina voids the warranty, please let me know!
I tried CM9 last night, and it was gorgeous! The only issue, my phone calls sounded like they were coming from the back of the phone, instead of through the speaker. So i decided to try dettofatto's rom....and after fiddling and fiddling for hours, finally realized how to get CDMA enabled (im on Verizon)
Its nice. Its almost stock, but its crazy fast....
Thread Closed, best rom threads are not allowed on XDA.
Thanks

Ill be straight to the point.. most of us have been using cm9 which is ics 4.0.0 since august 2012,each week, well sometimes every two weeks, since they are missing weeks. Cm9 is a nightly, which means there are bugs and issues, since teh rom is not stable. However, most of the problems have been fix and I have had not had any real issues with it, I do use it day to day, till a new custom rom (based off a previous cm9 nightly release) comes out that I want to try. but the roms has come a long way since build 1.
If something went wrong? like you bricked your phone. There is two ways.. create a back up in cwm before you flash cm9... or you can used kdz, which is used to recovery your phone if your brick it or you want to upgrade or download your firmware.
Also please give me more info about your phone. Like what baseband you are using, what country etc.
Also there are some stock custom roms, which are modified version of stock (2.3.6). With features like 1000 GHz overclock,new launcher,file manager and other useful tweaks/mods

. Are you taking about using the SDMerg Mod to increased your memory? I dont have a problem with it, I can transfer video,music and images to my phone... as well as apk files.

Upgrade to the latest firmware using the Lg firmware site. Also make sure you do a back up when you install cmw, before you flash cm9. Also you might want to download the 1GHz Kernel, even if you dont plan to overclock, it will get rid of the battery bug on start up.

[Q] I9300 - Laggy Phone

[Edit] Big mistake in the thread name!! It is of course a I9505 phone, sorry for the inconvenience.
Hello everyone, please excuse me if my English is not perfect, it's not my mother tongue.
I looked in the forum and I couldn't find an issue similar to mine, so I hope you'll help me to solve this problem and to find what's wrong because I'm really stuck.
My phone is a S4 I9505. I was running Cyanogenmod 11 M7 and everything was fine. But I updated to CM 11 M8 and my phone began to lag but after a few minutes the lags was disappearing. But a few days later it began to be too Laggy so I flashed the phone to reinstall CM and at my surprise it was as Laggy as before the flash!
So I tried to install an other custom room (Google edition) and I had the same problem.
Now I have a stock Rom and it's running fine. But I don't understand why my phone can't handle a custom Rom...
Can you help me?
Thanks a lot for you future answers.
I had same problem and I solve it .
First, try install any AOSP/GE ROM, CM11 if you like.
Then format your ext SD Card (you can backup data from SD Card to PC) and it should help

Thanks a lot, it works !!
Tou're a genius. :highfive:

Samsung Galaxy Core 2 Duo SM-G355M Does not work Android 5 onwards !!

Hello everyone! I would like some help if someone can do the "CHARITY" I'm currently out of work and I only have this cell phone "Samsung Galaxy Core 2 Duo SM-G355M" and I just can't make any CUSTOM ROM work with at least Android version 5.0.1 all I've tried have the same problem "I CAN UPDATE" using TWRP but after the BOOT is stopped at the boot screen (Custom ROM logo) infinitely I've tried more than 20 different roms and none works only one of PACMAN I managed to boot this one no the SIM CHIP works so it makes the cell phone useless! Only the STOCK ROMs have worked but these are heavy because they come with the DAMN APPS and this cuar is very weak there is not much space and little memory either! It's almost impossible to use APK on it..
My question is if this type of cell phone (garbage, by the way) is blocked by the manufacturer so as not to UPGRADE?? Only ROM works with KitKart 4.4.2 ???
Can someone help me? Thanks in advance for everyone's attention!
