Well flashing a custom rom means to put another rom in your phone which is better and faster than the original stock 2.1 or 2.2 roms!! many bugs are removed in the custom roms!!

Hi im new and... :)

hello im new to all this android moding but I come from flashing nokia phone. I would like to know if there is a ROM that looks like samsung original? No cosmetic mods... All I want is speed speed speed. Someone help me
1. Wrong section
2. If you want speed, stock firmware is as good as it gets imho. All these other "roms" are just deodexed variants which doesn't give you speed improvement just more theming options.
3. What you want is a good custom kernel. I'd recommend trasig's kernel. Been using it for a month now and its very stable.
right now im running
2.2
i9000bujp4
karnel- 2.6.32.9 root
froyo.bujp6
+ lag fix but my phone still lags in the apps menu
I wanna update to the latest version but dont know how (kies not working). So roms dont give speed? only karnels do? I also need slovenian language
Like i said considering we're dealing with closed source and all these roms based on same firmware, deodexing,zipaligning...etc won't give you as noticable a difference as will a different kernel
In ur case ur looking for a ext4 kernel. May i suggest voodoo.
Hello, I've been using darky's ROM since the beginning, and I must say that his 8.0 edition ( gingerbread ) is a hell of a fast ROM indeed ! Cosmetics is reduced to just the gingerbread theme, which is nice and gives a good feeling on SGS.
Hope I helped you with this one

You're WRONG. Newbs must exist. Noobs must not. And newbs should do non-newbs the favor of reading things like the FAQ before asking for help on the most basic things. We spend a lot of time making things as easy as possible for newbs.
Hint. Look in general section under sticky. Stock ROM's listed.
The modified ROMs are in Dev section.
I recommend spikes. Installation is in spikes 1st post. But better to flash stock on first attempt.
P.s. if u fight fire with fire u all waste time. If your gonna answer a thread then a negative response takes just as long as a positive response.

Hi!
I've decided to not open a new topic for this, since I have the exact same firmware as the OP.
The problem is, I can't find any information on this specific firmware, and I don't know if it's any good, or will I have to replace it... I'm hoping this won't be necessary tho, because this is my first Android device, and I'd like to start with simpler stuff, like rooting...
Which also brings me to my next problem: it says [email protected], and I have no idea what that means... Did I get a rooted version? Also, the 3-button combo for accesing download and recovery modes is working, and if I understood correctly, you are supposed to unlock it by yourself...
So, I'm hoping someone can enlighten me, and perhaps give me some pointers on how to play around with this amazing device...
Thanks!
No man.... newbs like me exists... i have low post count cuz i search and ask in specific threads before making a thread without reading first.
I know this community since 7/2009 and registered last year to participate instead of just leeching.
You can use google instead of forum search if you dont like it
On google enter:
[search term] site:http://forum.xda-developers.com
You cant even imagine how many answers you will find quietly.
Reading is better than asking same sh!t 100 times
Well, the problem is i dont know what to look for exactly, and its even tougher with the language barrier...
As posted.
Hint. Look in general section under sticky.

Yes I red what you posted and I went through all the threads. But the only advice is to try new kernel or ROM. I am not an IT i am a normal business man so I dont have time to "play" with my phone for the whole day.
That is Why I was asking for some fix. I used WM 6,5 and I was used to do things like this with hotfix-es

Hi,
I,'m glad that you took the time to read the posts I suggested,and I hope you learned a little bit more about your HD2.
The reason I pointed you in that direction,was to show you that there was no solution to your problem,other than to try a new kernel or ROM.
I am not in IT,and if there was an hotfix,you would have been directed to it.
It does not take a great deal of time to install a new ROM.Just make sure you BACKUP your information before you start(use CWM backup and restore).
Otherwise, you are stuck with your wakeup lag.

My earlier post was meant to be a joke between i & malybru, so pls don't tk it personal...I understand wat it means not to have adequate time to "play" with our phone especially when its a primary device to keep in touch with a business...Nevertheless, d only way 2 solve most issues is 2 get create time and play with different builds/kernels to find dat sweet mix for u...So just as malybru says, mk sure u have a cwm backup before doing anything cuz i've used C.D's 1.6 and it was quite stable for me...

[Q] Which Custom ROM is better ?

Hi Guys,
I am new to Android world and recently jump into Custom ROM things.
In one of the post, I've found there are lots of Custom ROMs available.
Now from them, how can i decide which on is good for my device(Samsung Galaxy 3-I5801).
Please help.
U can try your choice of ROM if u want...just download 2-3 ROMs and then select which u feel is the best

That was a joke, right? Are you saying that some ROMs that just came out (but still most of them are better than, lets say indroid OR any other ROM) are not as good because they dont have that many views? Views are same as nothing... You can get +10000 views easily with cheating (like stealing someones work)
@OP go check the FAQ thread, its the first thread in general section and there is a best custom ROM thread!
My idea was not to insult anyone, but if i did then please feel free to PM me and we can sort it out

what..? when and y..?
being new i would suggest you too to read the posts for new users then you would understand what you want....every ROM will have a few things different than others, and you will seldom have one ROM for all <atleast as of now>....i myself have 7 ROMs now, but cant pick one to be best. I would strongly suggest you to install G3Mod kernel which gives u functionality of multiboot, then you can have system.img of various ROMs and u can switch between them and decide which one suits u most. everyone is here to help you in future incase u need
welcome to G3 community
none!
each rom is filled with a lot of props,customizations....
and all this will result in force closes,battery drain etc....custom kernel is also a major culprit....you will eventually get irritated
get JPM and customize it yourself
The ROM that works the best for me (again, for me), is GreenMods POX 1.5, removing the default MIUI like launcher and TW launcher and installing LauncherPro. Is light, fast, stable and it doesn't come filled with much stuff.
If I was you I'd give it a try

This is the only tool you need to root and gain an unlocked bootloader.

Download the advanced ace hack kit and read its manual. Don't use HTCDEV to unlock your bootloader that will only give you problems later.
