C-RoM -4.4 !!!!
work very fast , easy to use , very beuatiful rom , save a lot battery. very reccomend!!

I have cm 11 nightly version 20140101 on my i9000 and it's by far the best rom I've found. It's sleek, light, fast, user friendly and consists of very few bugs.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda app-developers app

incoming call transparant
I don't know whether this is the right thread to post in but I do have an annoyance to report.
Is it intended for the incoming call screen to be transparent as below.
AFAIK its a solid black since ICS??

I was given my Galaxy S by my brother and have only used it to play with so far, my prime use, apart from as a phone, was to have been as a replacement for my stand alone TomTom satnav.
I have tried many many roms but the satellite lock on time has been far far to long so the phone was always kept in the drawer. I have now resurrected the Galaxy S and played with both KitKat roms released by ts1506 as well as EHNDROIX IV 14.1.1. I have to say that with EHNDROIX IV 14.1.1 installed, with TomTom maps, satellite lock on is now virtually the same as with my TomTom 950 and I am now at last using my Galaxy S daily. I am now a very happy chappie indeed.
Both Roms by ts1506, regarding satellite fix times, are also very very good it's just that I installed EHNDROIX IV 14.1.1 last.
May I also add that by visiting this great forum I have certainly learned a lot and it has certainly brought me many happy hours in my retirement. :good:

Thanks, i'll try

I use CyanogenMod 11.0 by ADC-Team - Alpha 3 (EOL) - Kernel 3.4.x since yesterday. So far the fastest ROM I used.
Only issues are that some Apps like eg. MixZing don't work, hope that there will be a cure to this soon.

try to update the app, as some apps may have not (yet) been updated for kit kat.

Btw. I might have misread the topic but I am using it on an I9001.

Thanks for the quick reply. I uninstalled and reinstalled the App already. Unfortunately no change.

I have switched from CM10 (which was very laggy on my i9000) to CM11, and everything is great so far!
More battery life, faster experience overall, stable, no serious bugs.

you've should update to the latest release with ION. it works even better and some apps like Chrome, Google Maps and several other apps wil be better.
Speaking about the Galaxy S plus wich i own, the (as we speak right now) latest CM11 by ADC team is working already really good together with K^Kernel, Its amazing that these 3/4 year old devices can get the latest and greatest versions of android and work well

i need to tests all to recommend one

Am on CM11 Beta 3 now and works quite good. Do you recommend a custom kernel or does it make more sense to stick to the standard they deliver with the package?

My vote
I love clean rom's that's why i vote Supernexus and Cyanaosp, no trash.

There is still who didn't really know how to flash 4.4 / 4.4.x rom like OmniROM / CM11 / Team Asylum Omni Naughty.

# MAKE A BACKUP FIRST #

Also if you can't find developer option in setting.
Put this on your memory, remember this always.
Go to setting>About Phone>Touch 7 times or more on build number.
And back to setting, you will see the developer option in setting.

It's good you took out the time to write this but...
1. Why do you need to flash the entire cm rom when you just need a kernel like raw r4 or asylum 10.2 kerner™.
2. why do you need "patients and a brain"?
PS: You might also need a cold storage in this case
1. i guess we can just flash the kernel only and save download as well as time.
2. we can find both at the hospital... along with other patient body parts if required.

If you are using Omni, Asylum Omni > then flash SuperSU as well. Step 7 ... A bit of an overkill in my eyes.

[DISCUSSION]Android 4.4.3 finally released

Just released for the Nexus devices, so expect some of the (still) supported AOSP roms to roll this out by end-of-month - if not sooner. Please don't use this as an excuse to spam threads asking for ETA's, as all 4.4.3 discussion can go here until those respective threads go live.
Thank you.
CM11 4.4.3 is now available for s2 i9100.

Did you do a full device reset? I usually dirty flash until 4.4.2 latest release, then fully wiped clean my device before jumping on 4.4.3.

I'm thinking about install CM11 M7 on my s2, what do you guys think about it? Bugs and something like that?
CM11 M7 works flawlessly... but:
- there is no default ringtone so if u wiped your /data you will hear silence when someone calls u
- there is no kernel with working usb-otg nor usb-hdmi around for this release, but DorimanX team is looking on to that.
- CM's gapps not working (not ready for 4.4.3 obviously), use pa_gapps (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2397942) - in my case only micro was small enough to fit with that new huge CM
- that kitkat /storage/sdcard0 read-only issue makes lot of apps to just crash !!
Besides above it works pretty well. Wifi stable, hsdpa stable, calls/sms fine, browser fine. Can't find anything more not WAI.
At this time I'd suggest NOT flashing DorimanX on newest CM 11 M7.
If u wiped /data partition you have to recreate some default structures (eg. DCIM or camera and gallery won't work).

[Q] Lollipop - Don't accept sweets from strangers

OK, so I have installed AOSP Lollipop from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-4/development/rom-aosp-build-t2929544
I was wondering if anyone is currently working on a custom build without so much Google inside. I would normally use CyanogenMod but they still don't have even a nightly build of Lollipop that I can find so I am limited to AOSP at the moment. I did try SimpleAOSP but that was from one extreme to another - I wasn't able to install any apps at all due to issues with libs.
It would be nice to have a ROM like SimpleAOSP but with F-Droid installed so we can install other apps without having to flash the GApps zip.

[ROM][5.1.1][UNOFFICIAL] CyanogenMod 12.1=v2-for iRULU Victory V3 (64bit 5.1.1 Rom)

This ROM is updated When there are bugs and new features.
Yet another custom rom with the latest Android Operating System Lollipop 5.1.1 It
is unnoffcial but it comprises the latest updates of Lollipop and CM 12.1. The custom rom is still under beta phase testing and there might be lots of bugs and instability. We would advice you to flash this custom rom if you’re not using as the primary device. You
can test the features of CM12.1 on your iRULU V3 but there might be errors or performance issues. The iRULU V3 CM 12.1 ROM is only 431 MB and it needs to be installed on a Lollipop based rom already with the TWRP custom recovery.
DISCLAIMER : Rooting or flashing custom roms results breaking the warranty of the device. Techolaty and its authors are not responsible for any damage which is incurred in the process of flashing custom roms or rooting the device. We highly advice to take a backup of your device prior to performing the process.

Moved to CM I could not resist trying it.
I wasn't able to use your recovery however I used TWRP 2.8.6.0.
My Windows machine wich I haven't used for two months wouldn't let my ADB work correctly.
My main PC is a Chromebox now .
still setting my phone up and I'll let you know my results tomorrow.
Thanks.

cm12.1 stable will be here as soon as i test gaming and see if it usable but so far it running better than miui7 stable but i also fix miui7 stable bugs but for now i will give you the cm12.1 so the camera bug will be gone and able to use fully .and better performance but sadly there is not custom kernal so the freedom is still not here yet miui 7 and cm12 is the only 64bit stable rom available now but maybe more is i get a mashmellow update or the source code.
th e stable version will be here as soon as i buy or get a 64bit pc

Hi, I only found one bug so far.....when listening to Google play music using Bluetooth headset the music is playing a little faster than it should it with a slightly higher pitch......love this ROM a lot.......
Hi, as a work around for music playing at higher speed thru bluetooth you can setup and use a app from the google play store called btmono premium, it works.....use widget.....
