[Q] g1 rooted with androot now which rom

just rooted g1 on 1.6 with androot and installed rom manager do i still need to upgrade the radio. i want to run 2.2 and possibly overclock it any help would be great

There are numerous Froyo ROMs available in the development forum. Each with their instructions on how to install them and the requirements beforehand.
Most of these ROMs will have settings which you can use to overclock. If you are rooted, which you'll need to be, then overclocking wouldn't be too difficult with the available apps already out there anyway.

depends on which rom you want.
I recommend Sparksmod 2.1 which is what i am currently using.
Its very fast , one of the best froyo roms out there.

OH and ive recently been hereing a lot of good things about superaosp dm rom, I might actually try it myself, if i do ill let you know how good it is.

SuperAosp is lighting fast. I am using it myself, and I garantee it works like a charm. See my sig for the link to the Developer site. (FYI it's in Spanish, so you'll have to translate it if you do not read Spanish).

Thanks guys I appreciate all the info. I just need a little help for a friend. I didn't want to flash a Rom on his phone and him being a noob have a bunch of stuff crash and him get nervous about trying roms. Since I don't have a g1 I haven't tried any roms for it. Really appreciate your quick responses.

The best thing to do is read the instruction until you understand what needs to be done. Once you feel comfortable and understand the DEV instruction. Then there should not be any problem.

Maybe let your friend trial a couple of ROM's before he settles on his preference?

Which is the best I9000 Gingerbread ROM on XDA!!!

Hi all,
I've had a GT-I9000 for over 6 months now and I haven't really tried too much stuff on it except for an official firmware update and OCLF, and as an XDA member this is my first post.
I'm currently running Froyo 2.2 (I9000DDJP2, kernel 2.6.32.9), everything was fine until my phone started to lag like hell and lots of force closes and reboots which is really pissing me off now. I was planning to wait for the official gingerbread update, however I think XDA already has tons of Gingerbread ROMS out there ready to be flashed. Also, I saw a few videos of I9000 running cyanogenmod which looked awesome. So i decided to give it a shot.
I'm a total noob at flashing, and to be honest, this will be my first time trying it out. Can you please suggest which is the best gingerbread ROM out there for I9000 and can it be flashed using ROM manager or do i need to follow the ODIN method.
Also, one very very dumb question , what is the difference between a ROM and a kernel, and is it required to flash both of them separately, if yes then which one should go first.

You need to read everything, especially if you don't know the difference between a kernel and a rom. You are no where near flashing, I'm saying this so you don't brick your phone.
Go to general thread and read through the stickies as these will lead you in the right direction. Once you have understood all of them, then proceed to flash.
Cyanogen is not for beginners so stay away.
Gingerbread roms that are supposed to be good are Juwes, Insanity, Simply Honey and Doc's. There are many GB roms but these seem to be the most popular.
Read everything until you know everything for sure and then go and flash
Good luck

Thanks for your reply... I'll start off with the reading i suppose, coz obviously i dont wanna brick my device... I've read that Insanity can be flashed directly using ROM Manager... Is this true?? If yes then can I try that one first, coz it seemed to be an easy enough method to flash a custom rom...

You also have to understand that Gingerbread is in effect Beta not released and devs still working on it in XDA . If you are capable of unbricking your phone dont mind breaking it then carry on otherwise wait for official release update through official method backup the firmware then customize as you want .

Congratulations, this was the 386th identical "I am a noob and can't be bothered to read much or use search but what is the best Gingerbread ROM?" thread.
Sorry, only the 1000th such thread will win our grand prize, a year's supply of DataAde, the cool, refreshing brick in a can.
However as a consolation prize, you receive the home version of our game as well as the same answer the 385 previous contestants received...."All are good but it is a very subjective thing, try them all and see which one suits you best."

Thanks i'll keep that in mind, i guess the best thing for me would be to wait for an official release... Till then i can try out the minor tweaks and stuff, hopefully i'll be able to understand how to use ODIN properly...

Well usually I would ignore such a flaming reply, but since you are soooo good with statistics, i'm guessing you have nothing better to do than to count the number of noobs on XDA...
Well if so is the case, then best of luck, you might just reach 1000 since not everyone is an expert like you...

No one faults the fact that you are new to Android, in many ways we all are, especially myself. However, there are numerous posts that explain and educate that are meant to be READ, not just skipped in the hope that someone will tell you the magic secret of Android while standing on foot.
XDA is one of the greatest resources you will find for learning about Android and finding the best software solution for you....use it. It will be time well spent.

How about responding with a link to a thread that does have good information on available Gingerbread ROMS. I have searched and have not found it yet. Obviously based on your response there are hundreds of threads about this topic. Why not offer up at least one that we can check out? Obviously I am not typing in the exact magical phrase in the search box that reveals this supposedly abundant information.

if you change the language in system settings it should change all into the desired language.... not too sure abt 3rd party apps tho but i reckon some will change too....
correction to your above sentence you dont use a rom to root.... you root first then flash a rom. you can root using the methods stated in Nooby's thread
for OB now we have quite a couple of custom roms check
Noobys thread
and now i see there is another new one based on GB called "LEZO Rom" but am not too sure abt the language support on that one
the Cyanogen rom is still a nightly so unless you know how to muck ard with your phone id recommend you wait till they have a stable release.
or alternatively after root you could just remove non important apps and see how it goes from there first (that's what i did =P) a list of stock apps which are safe to remove can be found here
hope this helps..... oh and give thanks to the OP of the individual threads =)

Hi,
Thanks for all this information, i has seen this nooby post, help a lot.
Still CyanogenMod is a nightly rom, i think there are no big problems to use it.
I hope, that the ICS come soon to our phone; so i think its better that use a custom rom.
Thanks again.

ICS Repack Problems
Hi all,
I managed to flash ICS Repack by Chainfire on my galaxy note today. It is pretty cool and really fast. But I've few questions to ask regarding this new ROM. Please be kind enough to direct me to a appropriate thread if these questions are already been asked and solved.
After I flash ICS Repack, I cannot find CWM anymore. What happened to it ? and how I can get it back ?
How I can go back to my old GB rooted ROM (I've CW backup of that rooted LB2 GB ROM) ?
By now, this ICS version cannot render South Asian languages. but LB2 rendered it very well. Are there any option to get that language support on this ICS ?
I need to change this Keyboard (Chinese) to English. Any other method to change it (Instead of installing GO Keyboard) ?
In our county phone numbers have two formats (our numbers are start with "0" but receiving calls don't have that starting "0" ). But in this ICS ROM, those 2 numbers are Identifying as two different numbers. Any method to fix that issue ?
Can I get my CPU speed to 1.4GHz again ?
Please be kind enough to help me on these matters.
Thank You.

Thanks ... !!!

Stick with GB for now...people working with ICS around here like to make you jump through hoops just to get your phone to work...so if you're not will to spend the time on it, then stick with GB...no fuss, no muss.

The answer to 3. is a very simple 'yes, you can always go back'.
Also, massive thanks for updating your OP with the answers you have found. If only all question-askers did this.

Samsung GALAXY Tab 10.1v P7100

Hi guys, this is my device, already as a XDA rom :good:
Any advice to update/upgrade?
Another question, maybe a stupid one. I've bought the tables with the xda rom as you can see in the image, there's no dialer to make a call.
Is this normal? I know this is a tablet, not a phone, but ...
Thank you for your support.

It's a tablet not a phone soe yes no dialer.
And as for upgrading try Rs roms, or the CM9 nightly.
While we are waiting on official 4.0.4 just have fun with it.

Really need some help / Advise here.
My tablet had some problems and stop working. With the help of some posts in this forum I was able to flash the stock rom and now I've ICS 4.0.4.
But ... I've many freezes and blocks.
Guys, what's the best rom at this moment, with everything working?
Thank you ALL

I use CM9 experimental from Droid basement. It is quite stable and everything works for most people (including the phone!).
droidbasement.com/db-blog/
I've read that it is better than the stock ICS.

The phone? You mean that I can make phone calls from the tablet?

Lol, Yes. This one too. But there's a lot to learn.
I've read somewhere that tablets don't make phone calls, that's why I'm confuse now.

It can be a bit confusing trying to keep track of all the developments on the Galaxy tab.
Right now the latest experimental CM9 rom has the ability (when used with the right modem) to make calls.
You have said that you are a bit worried about using beta stuff so it might not be for you - if you want the latest official build then go back to the stock 3.0.1 and follow the official upgrades. You should end up with the latest official ICS ...
Otherwise the only alternative is to put up with the inconvenience associated with development and learn quick to have the leading edge options.
If you are interested then my advice is to go with the experimental CM9 rom and load the I9100XXLQ3 modem. The experimental ROM has the voice_enable functionality built in.
