[Q] is there any way to flash stock Gingerbread?

hi
i saw some devices that running Vanilla android roms (some chine's phones)
why there is no way to install the stock vanilla Gingerbread like in
the Nexus phones?

because there untill now there was no source code. though the componants are the same as the nexus s there are diffences that make it very difficult to port. the effort for an aosp rom has been mostly focused on cyanogen mod 7. it may be posible to get a stock nexus rom to install over a kernel cyanogen mod.
if you want sonething similar to stock nexus 2.3.3 the best route is to install cyanogenmod 7 and the stock gingerbread launcher. then you have everything the nexus has plus some enhancments and all open source

U can also try continuum v5 rc3.

continuum is nothing like the nexus s. it is a touchwiz ROM. if you want the stock android gingerbread feel, cyanogenmod 7 is the closest you'll get right now.

Only froyo?

Do you have to be on a froyo firmware to flash cyanogenmod7 and miui?
Thanks

Yes, but more specifically froyo bootloaders. Miui does to as it is based on CM7. There are heaps of guides around that include instructions on how to go to Miui or CM7. This one explains how to go to CM7: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1101534[/URL
And this one for Miui: [URL="https://docs.google.com/document/pub?id=1ItSONRa9nzI7MKeKqwIdHCTRA3RRiOM_6LcJGnK4p6Y&pli=1"]https://docs.google.com/document/pub?id=1ItSONRa9nzI7MKeKqwIdHCTRA3RRiOM_6LcJGnK4p6Y&pli=1

Ezbase 2 is the best start point for a journey to cm7, why not try insanity cm? Come join the insane

I will after I have used darky's for a.little longer. The roms I have tried are gingerreal and darky's 10.1. The roms I have tried are dark core and the one that came with gingerreal and I can't tell a difference in nh the.performance.

I think I will stick with darky as I found that battery life is quite a bit better on gingerbread than froyo

Yes, if you want to have a good battery life, you shouldn't use CM7 or MIUI. Cause if cmpare battery life to Samsung-based ROMs it's not so good (but it's getting better from day to day ).

So which other roms can I flash straight away which are gingerbread based other than darkys and gingerreal?

Just look in the 'Galaxy S Android Development' section.

I don't really think there are many Optimizers that are going to do much for Froyo. If you are on a custom rom the developers have pretty much pushed all the speed out of 2.2 as possible maybe you could flash back to stock then flash back to what ever rom you are using. For speed I would personally recommend firefly, or fastys.

check out darky's rom 10.2 i think it's pretty fast and not sluggish at all.

if you want less lag and a more responsive rom, then check out v6 supercharger for android. its right here in the themes and apps section. its a simple script you can run using script manager from the market.i think its your best bet. i'm running miui and it improved response very well.so try it.its free.so you have nothing to lose

[Q] CyanogenMod7 installation over Cognition 5 v2

Hi,
I currently have my phone running Cognition 5 v2 ROM. I wanted to try out CyanogenMod 7, which I understand is 2.3.3 or 2.3.4 based, just like Cognition 5.
What's confussing me is that the installation instructions of CM7 are asking the installation to be from Froyo/Eclear Bootloaders, while for Cognition I had to install GB bootloaders.
Why is that?
Finally, can someone point me to a post that helps me revert the bootloader and ROM to stock?
Regards,
Mauricio

The OP for CyanogenMOD hasn't been updated. You can install cm7 with the gingerbread bootloaders now and will work with no issues. You may have to download the cm7 from the link rather than Rom manager, though I am not positive on that as I don't remember how I downloaded it. Move the cm7 zip onto your sdcard along with the GAPPS zip. Reboot into recovery and manually flash them both. If you have an issue go back out to recovery and flash it again and it should work with no issues.
I THINK the issue with going from DGs ginergerbread is that it uses a different version of clockworkmod recovery or at least that is how it seemed when I did it. This is how I did it from Cog5 gingerbread. Then I decided to try biffmod. (This is my secondary captivate, backup). Good luck.

Yeah I would Odin back to 2.2 (the one without bootloaders), then go go cm7. The i897 bootloaders work fine with cm7.

[Q] Google goggles fix for froyo roms?

Currently I'm using FroyoPro 2.2, it is almost perfect but I have some problems with Google Goggles. I think it is connected with all froyo roms because on Gingerbread it works fine. It is possible to fix it on froyo roms? I don't want to use 2.3 because they are too slow for me.
