JVH/JVO vs Cyanogenmod - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys!
I think it's about time to give some gingerbread to my galaxy s.
I'm having this doubt about which way to go. Official firmware or Cyanogenmod.
What do you recommend? What are the pros and cons of which one of them by your experience.
One 100% required feature for me is voodoo sound, but i guess i can have it both ways.
Thank you for your help!

Why not taking a look at the features list first:

If you think you really really need that stuff then maybe you want that ROM. The tethering and openvpn stuff sounds nice but I like my stock GB for now.

Thanks for your reply.
It's not a question features, it's a question of user experience.
For example, one thing that annoys me in the official gingerbread is the alarm clock bug, as it happens that I rely on it every single morning to get to work on time

Woot... thank you
I feel as giddy as a schoolgirl! Thanks Br1cK'd.
Good to see you back around the Vibrant community Brick'd. What are the main changes in this firmware upgrade? I understand the browser, as the standard GB browser that's been floating around sucks. Just curious as to the benefits, and perhaps users will want to know the difference to help them determine a ROM to use as a daily driver.
Thanks a lot
Oh I almost forgot to mention, I do plan on putting out a stockish GB theme to go with this, its not in the works quite yet, but will be soon.

The differences in between XXJVQ and XXJVR are superb. It runs smoother and faster from what I've been experiencing. I am talking about my own personal builds here. I was running my own JVQ since last week, and this JVR puts it to shame. You have to try to it and see for yourself really.
As a daily driver, my phone has to be functional 100 percent for work. I have my email on an exchange push profile, and I need everything else to work without fc's. What I post out here is exactly what I run, and I hold it to a high standard for my own use, and yours as well.

Nice ROM, love the simplicity and hey any time you get over 3000 on a quad score is nice. Only problem i have is this new market, getting the same error on other ROMS with this new market ,receive the not enough space error .

What is The best rom to use

I am getting a bit peed off with my stock froyo tab it random reboots and doesn't turn on properly at times I have the p1000 uk GSM not wifi only I dont mind what I run asking as it is fast as hell, I have a nexus s so its a bit mad switching from devices at times.
Thanks xda

Take the Overcome expiriance. It feels very fast and smooth. Everything works without any issues and the community support (if you need it) is great. At the moment Alterbridge does not stop his developing (next version of his rom is in the oven) so we will get more and more performance.
PS: for a nexus S look you can flash the GreengerBlack theme.
(I know, I know......)
I came from overcome to dip7's rom and I can tell you that it is faster but it's closer to stock. Overcome has icons that look cool for some people but i like dip7's rom better.

Cool thanks for the replys guys quick question if I was to flash it is there anything or any builds for the uk model as there is so many different types of tab models. I don't want a brick
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
If you make your choise for overcome, the installation will be easy as sleep. You just have to follow the guide on "teamovercome.net". The Rom is made for GSM Tabs like yours. It's allmost impossible to brick the Tab.

I can give you instructions to install dip7's rom if you want cos I have a UK tab too. I can tell you how to install overcome too.

For both roms you must flash stock gingerbread. Here is the guide I used cos i was a bigger noob then:

The honeycomb rom by spacemoose1 is not complete yet. The last build he released was about 3 months ago. I tested it and it was laggy and many things were broken. I recommend gingerbread for now until spacemoose1 gets onto a better stage of his build.
Sent from my GT-P1000 using XDA App
I really appreciate all the replys, ever since I got my nexus s I joined this site and I've never known a community to be so helpfull. I will go with the overcome, I watched the YouTube video of honeycomb it doesn't have the acceleration looks good but I'd rather have the "smooth as butter flash" I will hopefully flash before or after work tonight and will report back

Overcome or CM7 ?
I can see that overcome is pretty popular. I dont hear anybody touting CM7; I've got CM7 running on an HTC Desire HD and an LG Optimus One, and I'm pretty happy with it -- much better that the stock ROM, and on the O1, probably the nicest ROM out there. I'm just wondering a bit how much better worse it is compared to Overcome ?
I used to like cm7 but it is buggy as he'll Evan the last release was on my nexus s id have times where my screen would look like a burnt in screen animation, I would have to reboot all the time best roms i've used on my nexus is stock and miui only problem with miui us is the keyboard vibration don't work

Guys,
I just got a T-Mobile version of TAB,
I'd like to flash to Gingerbread, or a rom which supports Gtalk video and Skype,
What are some of your suggestions?
Thank you
Overcome supports it I think I'd start with that if you can get overcome

Definitely what you want. I've been an Overcome fan for a while now, been very happy with it.
I use Overcome since version 2.0.0 RC1. In my opinion it is the best ROM for the Gtab 7". It is fast, does not have too much bugs and the support by Team Overcome is very good. The development of the ROM is fast and continually.
Not to forget the very good installation instruction and the Change Log for every new version of the ROM.

Desperate,

Hi guys,I have just come from evo 3d, and have been with Android from the start, and had HTC for years, but this is my first Samsung phone, and I love it, I'm rooting this on Wednesday, but I have no idea what room I should download, obviously it has to be stable, and great battery, and coloured menu theme Buttons,etc etc, I was using Leedroid, and coredroid on HTC, my phone is unlocked and gsm model, and just been upgraded to 2.3.6, if any one can suggest a great room I would appreciate that.
Many thanks guys.

cant agree more on this
oh btw this thread should be in the General Section !!
I'm really happy with Romow with AbyssNote, long battery life, and really fast!
Currently on MySam 1.5, like the liteness of the rom and ability to install removed apps through the nitrality app included in the rom.
Battery life is great as well with this rom and abyss note kernel v2.1

Zeus rom or CM10

I know that there are many experienced people her like Nooby, huexxx.. (that i know, maybe there are others too..)
I wanted to ask there are many users that have experienced both of them, in your opinion which one is better for normal use. Plus what is comparison between them

Let's say experianced noob ^^ well for a basic user, you can in fact use both... more battery, stock stability and compatibility are on zeus side. About more features and feeling cool and wanting the latest, take CM10 But you really should at least try both or even more. It took me really long to decide and in fact i am still changing quite often, to check out new features and development. Just install one, set it up to your needs, try/test it, back it up, flash another one, try it and decide whats best for you. You should also try ICS repack. If sms works fine for you, it should be one of the best daily drivers available till now (at least I liked pretty much, but sms doesnt work for me...) so have fun

I used zeus for performance and stability.. now im using cm10 for the looks and new feeling
I've already tried both and I can honestly said that Zeus is my fav. CM10 is still very buggy...
I used Zeus untill Aokp ics was released and now i'm on Aokp jb and i have tried cm10 to.
If you want stability use Zeus.
If you want to be up to date use cm10
well said by nooby and romwiz
zeus is more stable and cm10 is still a little buggy
i personally stopped using zeus since a week and am pretty happy with miui and cm10
if you don't game much, go cm10
if you game, go zeus and it has the same looks
I have tried both of them.
personally, i think Zeus is more suitable for me. It has a better performance and stability.
However, if u want to try the new functions, just go for cm10...
Sent from my LG-P970 using Tapatalk 2
I think ZEUS is for daily use (6.4 or 7.03) and all ICS, CM10 or whatever, you'll have to make some compromise in using your phone (no gps or no video, not being able to install the apps you want...).
Can anyone tell me if it's possible to change the notification bar's function shortcuts in zeus, like in cm??

It's possible. Use the quick panel icon in the application drawer.

I am using AllianceROM from my signature. It is very smooth and snappy. It's TW based JB and it's nicely themed with OTAs and a lots of customizations. You can install with or without Samsung and Google apps. Just follow instructions.
I'm using Super Nexus 2.0
Pros:
Smooth and fast
No Bloatware
Great battery life
Cons:
None really. (some may say it is to much of a minimal ROM) but I actually like that
My favs
It's been about 15 months since i'm having my beloved Note, and i guess i flashed like 30 different ROM's on it, from GB's to JB's, CM, MIUI, literally everything. Let me mention my 2 favourites, The first one was this: [ROM][4.1.2][10/14] Cookies & Cream 1.3.0. Very highly customizable, smooth, and amazing battery life. The reason i stopped using it, cuz it has some flaws, i cannot save my contacts to the SIM card, or anywhere else, just to my Google, which i don't want. The other one problem was, there's no option to store the photos on your external SD card, only to the internal. Apart from this, a very good ROM. The next i'd like 2 mention is, my all-time fav, Chrack' s XXLRQ v16 Final. I'm using it for a while now, this is the most perfect ROM i ever used on my Note. Everything works perfectly, no FC's, lagging, smooth as melted butter, and it has probably the best battery life i ever experienced. Simply perfect ROM. I cannot recommend anything else more than this.
CM 10.1. Pure; like it should be.

CM 10.1 is the fastest but also the softest
Paranoid Android is the coolest but buggy
All the TW ROMS including stock are dealable and for a major manufacturer to make a ROM that u can actually use WO having to be an I-Drone then i think every veteran would say that's impressive!
but also that, basic functionality doesn't mean that a C student getting a C+ is someone i want to hire or give a medal...u don't get praise for making something that works, after a million failed attempts, especially when u are a zillion dollar company
All the TW ROMs are pedestrian and I never understood why people can't live wo S-Planner? You use a TW ROM BC u have a separate tablet, and u cant live wo SPen...omg are u kidding? hahahahaha
Start flashing virgins, there's no reason we cant direct mobile computing....u can lay down and accept whats given,which is for them, or u can demand the best and push the envelope
Really we just want the hardware...
Thanks Samsung for making a device that I-Drones might look at BC its big but no thanks on trying to make more Samsung drones.... Its not good for humanity, technological advancement or me personally
BTW i use Paranoid Android (Jelly Beer)
