Ive seen this many times in rom manager but never flashed it as it wasn't on xda so wasn't sure about it. As far as I can see it's a reliable rom so I wonder why I've never seen it here before????
I installed one rom I found here that was based on it though.
Might give it a shot. OP has given info about it. Anybody else can supply any feedback?

I used the 2.3.3 version and it was very stable and just worked fine as advertised; I'm sure this one is the same. He just focuses on making a very stable, close to stock rom with some improvements here and there. Should be a very smooth rom.

Guys, jcs doesn't post on XDA so if you have questions regarding Blandroid, please use his mini-forum on the Blandroid website:

Thanks

Yep, very stable/smooth ROM. The latest 2.3.4 version was not as smooth for me though, so I went back to the 2.3.3 version.

Have you wiped cache and dalvik? Cos im running the rom and its crazy smooth!

Wiping cache has nothing to do with lags..

Great Rom. Added flying Windows animation and a nice BatteryPercentage with the online kitchen. Now it's nearly perfect

I've recently reverted back to stock but still have reboots - anyone using this rom experience that still?
Thanks!

does it support adhoc wifi?

Blandroid has a dedicated forum here
Blandroid version 2.3.4p2 is the current update. All installation procedures and requirements can be found at blandroid.org
I'm using this ROM on a NExus ONE - my Nexus has never worked any better!

yes.. FFC works. As you know, blandroid has no Google apps pre-installed. There is a gapps package you use (same as with cyanogen). But that gapps package hasn't got the latest Talk.apk
You need to get the new version of Talk.apk yourself. I created a thread and posted a link here.

Blandroid 2.3.5p0
Very stable release! I get at least 20 hours with heavy use (3g on always)
Blandroid.org manually updated changelog
2011-09-10
2.3.5p0 released
2011-09-09
Imported CMScreenshot app from CyanogenMod and added a screenshot function to the global power menu. Now screenshots can be taken natively from anywhere by holding down the power menu and selecting "Take Screenshot". Screenshots show up as PNG files in the DCIM/Screenshots directory on the SD card.
Added a setting to disable showing failed lock patterns. Most useful when the "Use visible pattern" option is disabled.

Been using this myself for the past day, very fast, stable and smooth rom, I will be using this as my daily driver from now. Haven't cross any bugs yet.

I can't seem to get this to install from recovery. I always get installation aborted.
Any reason why? I seem to be stuck with Oxygen...

[ROM] DUAL Roms (GR-5+MIUI-1.12.9 & GR-5+CM-204 both by ChinaGB) at Modaco

Found a great ROM totally based on a new concept of DUAL ROM. Both GR5 by Paul & MIUI12.2 bundled together by "ChinaGB". I have flashed this ROM today and its working well since last few hours. If interested you may try the ROM at link below. Screenshots also available there at Modaco.
http://android.modaco.com/topic/349332-gr5miui1202-double-system/
All credit goes to ChinaGB for bundling the ROMs. Thanks to him. I have only posted the link as the concept is great to me.
11.12.2011: Subsequently another DUAL ROM developed by ChinaGB again with GR5+CM-204. Link attached. Downloading. Will flash in free time.
original link : http://115.com/file/bhk2amyj/
link provided by s.don : http://db.tt/ATEV950e/
great going.
Thanks to ChinaGB for the ROMs & S.don for providing the link.
Edit: Actually both the ROMs are bundled by ChinaGb. S.Don only provided the link like me.

any tutorial? or any specific flashing procedure? wipes? can you guide please? As i read the Modaco thread, there are some functions not working...what are those?
Thanks Partha...

No special tutorial needed. FULL WIPE needed, i.e., wipe data, cache, dalvik. Run CONVERT TO EXT3 by Paul and lastly flash. ROM will boot into GR5. Dont skip initial android screen. RONs can be changed by tapping dedicated icons. Lastly till now I have not found anuthing not working. Using MIUI at present. Only thing is battery seems to be draining faster than Topo's ROM & SPICA kernel. But nothing wrong in trying its an unique experience. Apps installed in one ROM shows up in other.

Partha, Thanks for the information. But, what about the free RAM? HD Video, BT, Wifi, 3G mobile data, etc?
How long is the battery after a charge?
BTW, I just downloaded tht...waiting for your answer....
Thanks once again

how will you install the available tweaks in each type of the rom? it will surely get into bootloop, afaik..

BT wifi working. 3g i cannot check. RAM is more than 100mb and UI is fluid. I have mostly used the MIUI part but I think v20l will also be stable. Battery is one point which I am still testing.
Regarding tweaks as pointed out by Helldroid nothing can be done. Both the ROM uses different kernels. MIUI uses swiftextreme and v20l uses probably default with tweaks like support for voodoo. RIL is also different for both ROMs and only customisation i have done is flashed RIL in MIUI part.
Thanks

I haven't calibrated my battery. You try and advise us if successful. I think try the MIUI side first because MIUI seems to be draining faster than v20l. BTW you can download ONLY 1.2MB updater in the Modaco site and flash it (I flashed it after wiping Cache/dalvik cache) to update your MIUI version to latest 12.9. Very Simple. I Liked the way of updating. BTW while flashng the update I first booted to MIUI ROM and then booted to CWM from MIUI ROM so that after flashing it boots to MIUI. Don't know if flashing from the v20L side would do any harm but I thought it safer to go by MIUI side since its a MIUI update.

I have applied the fr version changes to the rom for miui part so i think i wont be able to update the ota method . but i will try...
anyway there's currently a fr version being cooked with a customized miui
regards

does anyone know how to change gr5 to cm7 in this rom and if it is possible?

yes it is , it's actually the replacement of the chinese miui by the french one (V20L not touched)
Also there a tweaked french miui version wich may be ported with your boot apps but, from what i know, it's a work in progress.

[Q] Is this worth to leave CM and go Echelon ROM (Brahma)?

Hi guys.
I've been looking for a ROM to replace Cyanogen...
Found this Echelon ROM (Brahma) and saw the feedback was good about it.
Battery improved, smooth use... anyway, I flashed CM 7 months ago on my P970 and it's working good for me but I think there is more power in my device, but seems that all this power isn't being shown by CM.
Advise me here, is a good change to go from CM to Echelon?
Thank you!

Make a nandroid and then try echelon. If you dont like it, you re back to CM in about 10 minutes i prefere it very much by CM, cause it has less bugs (0), is fast, stable and the battery for me is waaay better as in CM.
Hope it helps

Thank you too much!
Will flash Echelon ASAP!
Keep helping us

i'm on zeus v6 right now and i like it very much, next week going to try echelon brahma for sure.. en then make a dicision what rom i like the most.
zeus and echelon are the roms i like the most..
ik also tried cm a couple of weeks ago but that wasn't going very well.

I strongly recommend you to do this.
Echelon works fine, is an excellent rom for OB, altough it isn't finished yet.
Post your feedback here!

Echelon and Mavel versions are great, Cm is for me the best Rok for the OB, but hattery consumption is horrible, try Marvel instead Echelon and you wont regret.
Regards!

Agreed... CM has horrible battery drain, that's why I'm trying other ROMS.
I'm using Zeus v6 and I'm enjoying this ROM. Also tryed Echelon, but it is unfinished, besides is a nice ROM too.
Will try the Marvel ROM soon, wanna find the best ROM for me

I recommend you to try Echelon ROM (Brahma). Its the most stable custom rom I've tested by far. I am currently using it for over a week now and I haven't experienced any bugs or crushes compared to CM7.
I have a little problem though on setting up Live Wallpapers.
Do anyone of you know how to set Live Wallpapers in this rom?
Cheers,

Hi,
i installed the Echelon ROM on my Black too, and im very satisfied with this rom. Its the best ROM currently on market, and im following the Echelon Thread nearly every day to check if there are any Updates regarding this ROM.
But unfortunately today i didnt find the Thread anymore?!
It seems that the developer of this rom has deleted his Thread?
Does anybody know why? It would be very sad if he decided to stop this ROM

Brahma was a base ROM for V20o with minimal tweaks, but faster than stock. As what could have been next will never be seen, like a unicorn. For what can be/could have been added, what lacks..
*Try the iwconfig for TX Power
*GPS fix (or compare gps.conf to others)
*For some values, download Sysctl Config in Market (you will have a sysctl.conf file automatically added in system/etc)
*Didn't add Terminal, download one in market
*Didn't delete libGLES_android (for battery), up to you. There are tweaks in build.prop anyway.
*Has original libsqlite (Alpha and Brahma), working bluetooth out of the box
*In Alpha I added quickpic and deleted galery3d, alarm clock in exchange of another.

Why dont you continue it dude? Means I have to switch to Zeus again? I really loved your ROM, as you should know Sad to hear...
Or do I get anything wrong?

Up to you, it's the trend nowadays... If I find something interesting, it will be PM'd so you can update.

i was wondering, where is the echelon topic went? i couldn't find it anymore..
to bad, i think you did a fantastic job on a rom that had only two release versions..

the original thread was:

phew, good thing i have not flash other ROM on top of this Echelon. This is most preferable rom for me currently. Thanks Gabwerkz!

oh buddy... there's no need to make a thread for a small (almost meaningless) issue like "wifi not working" .... must be the ROM's fault...
if you want a cm7 build, the most stable and 'all-working' build is the official one which u get from cyanogenmod.com -- update-cm7.2.0-tass.zip !!!!!!!!
and to get the market and all other google apps working, you need to flash the gapps also(they are not preinstalled because of distribution issues with Google).
Please be grateful and press THANKS if i helped you!

[ROM][MIUI V5][JB 4.1.2] MIUI V5 UnOfficial for SHV-E120S

Hi MIUI Fans:
This thread is not in progress anymore ... coz I changed my phone a long time ago and I don't have this device now...
But no need to be sad coz ... MIUI has included this phone in its list and Ported ROM is available for this device...
And not only this but all the 3 devices have MIUI now ... SHV-E120S/K/L....
Here is the link Ported MIUI from the official site ...
Hope you enjoy

Hey friends,
For those of you who have been waiting, here is the good news.
I am so glad to present the latest (not exactly, but not old either) MIUI V5 3.8.2 for our SHV-E120S S2 HD device.
Whats working:
Seriously speaking I have not done a explicit testing on this build, but have briefly gone through almost all the things and found those to be working. :good:
Whats not working:
There is no keyboard installed by default. You need to skip all the settings in the beginning and then you can install a JB keyboard and then setup your phone.
Problems:
I found the Camera app not fully functional. If you want to simply click pictures then its working great. But I found a few problems while video recording. The speed at which the camera takes photos is pretty quick and for the video is pretty laggy.
NOTE:
1. I am not the creator of this ROM, I have simply ported it to our device.
2. Make sure you have taken the necessary backup of your existing ROM before flashing this one.
Flashing Process:
1. Copy the downloaded file to your sd card where you can access it easily.
2. Boot into recovery and take a backup of your existing system (in case any thing goes wrong)
3. Cleaning up
3a. Wipe data/factory reset
3b. Wipe cache partition
3c. Go to Advanced option and wip dalvik cache
4. Choose install zip and point it to the location where you copied the downloaded miui zip. It will take around 2 mins.
5. Repeat steps 3a, 3b and 3c.
6. Reboot your device.
While starting for the first time it may take some time and any subsequent restarts will be much faster.
WARNING:
And I am not responsible for anything that goes wrong with your device. Please flash this at your own risk.
Although I flashed the same and had no problems at all. I have experienced a good battery backup with this ROM.
Those who flash this ROM, please share your experience with others. And it would be great if someone could put up a video of the flashing process and the performance of the phone once you have flashed the ROM.
Without any further delay here is the download link for the same:
Build 01: 2013_08_20
https://docs.google.com/file/d/0BycWzcfvhoryUEd4Nnk1SXZQS28/edit?usp=sharing
Build 02: Coming Soon...
But I would need people to test it once.... coz I don't have enough time to test it.
Also if anyone would like to see the screenshots, you can find those here:
http://www.mediafire.com/folder/za31zscots5b5/MIUI_V5_ROM
Happy Downloading, and please hit the Thanks button if you like my work. I just hope if works for you all
Lastly I would like to thank
MIUI team, MIUIAndroid team, osm0sis and Tinus81 (the link you gave did the trick ) for helping me out.
Thank you.

NO!!
I don't exactly know how these devices (E120S, E120L & E120K) are different from each other...but please don't do any such thing...
You could brick your device (just guessing)....
Search a ROM for your device and i am sure you will find one....I would be very happy to port this rom for other models like yours....but i don't have that device to test the same....
Thanks

Hi shrewdy I just bought a brand new SHV-E120S from ebay it should arrive tomrorrow so I am just downloading your rom ready.
I have been reading contradicting specs for this phone can you confirm what bands it actually supports ?
From what I can tell I can get gsm and 3g here in the uk but possibly lte because some sites say it supports 3 lte bands and some say just 850mhz
Would you say best option is to flash stock ics then cwm then this rom ?

Hey Buddy,
you can find more information about the phone at this link http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_galaxy_s_ii_hd_lte-4198.php
The stock roms are not good enough for this phone....actually speaking none of the ROMs are absolutely perfect for this phone...coz there are not many developers who know about this device.
The phone itself is quite a capable device but its a sad thing that no one supports the phone directly...so people like us have no choice but to port different roms which i must say are not so perfect...
Anyways there are a handful of ROMs available for this device...you can try each one and see which suits you....I really need the camera working absolutely fine and so i use iR2 ROM (Version 3)...
Hope you find answers to your questions.
Thanks.

Yes shame there is not much of a following on this phone it looks good and was ahead of its time !
It would also be good if someone had the time to put in a thread all the different roms, download links what versions etc on main page here............as there are not many I guess it won't take long !
Yes I saw the specs on GSMARENNA but some say they are wrong regarding the bands that are on the SHV-E120S..........anwyay mine has arrived so its time to unbox and flash !
Do you have a dwonload link for the rom you recommend ? Does everything work ? From reading it appears that FOXROM is about as bear perfect as you can get ? but its ICS.

Yes I saw the specs on GSMARENNA but some say they are wrong regarding the bands that are on the SHV-E120S..........anwyay mine has arrived so its time to unbox and flash !
Do you have a dwonload link for the rom you recommend ? Does everything work ? From reading it appears that FOXROM is about as bear perfect as you can get ? but its ICS.

Alright,
You can find the link for the ROM i was speaking about in this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=44691364&postcount=1941
You can refer to this document for a list of ROMs available for our device: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/pub?key=0AosAjYg4w51XdHkxNlRzWFk4UllTTHFNd1JpLW9TWHc&output=html
And here is another ROM that i have tried lately and was working quite well (not 100% stable though): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=44948602&postcount=1949
Thanks

Thanks for the links..............I put a modified stock version on last night and it seems to be stable but very battery hungry so I intend on trying the IR32 tonight which I am hoping is much better ! It didn't download in time !
Shrewdy I think the ROM I tried it was one you posted you tried because it was a zip of a MD5 file with your initials in the file name.
Also just to report for anyone in the uk who purchases this phone it appears that becaus the phone only gets 1 out of the 2 3g bands you can only obtain 3g speeds no H at all unless of course its the rom I am using.
I think the build quality of the phone is a lot better than the S3 and looks more expensive !
If I can get the battery lasting a day then I will be happy I am not bothered about the 4g or H speeds really thats what we hav WIFI for

I am sorry buddy but i really dont have any idea... i just ported the original thing to our device....
If the original MIUI has support for Spanish language then this will have it too..
I searched around and found these links which might be useful...
This one teaches you how to create your own language pack/or translate things
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=789566
This one gives you a list of language packs you can download for MIUI (but older version)
http://miuiandroid.com/community/threads/miui-v5-multi-lang-3-5-31.20664/
Now i am not sure if things work for you if you download the language pack and apply it to this rom...i dont know what will happen...
Hope something works for you...
Thanks.

Why Not...Will be glad to help you....

But one problem, you use SHV E120S, i use SHV E120L

In you opinion is this still the best option?
Shrewdy said:
Hey friends,
For those of you who have been waiting, here is the good news.
I am so glad to present the latest (not exactly, but not old either) MIUI V5 3.8.2 for our SHV-E120S S2 HD device.

Shrewdy, I recently buy one of this one (E120S) and I've been looking for a better rom that "full of bloatware" official one. I know you're experienced a lot with this device, so my question is simple: is still this ROM the best stable and compatibility version that you have used? I know this is a noob question, but since your original post is in August, maybe you have a better experience with new a ROM.
About the camera, have you solved the lag during video taking?
Thanks for your answers!!!

Bro... this rom (MIUI 3.8.2) is not the most stable version... My rom is based on the MIUI's Development version which is probably never stable.
If you want a stable rom (which i dont think there is...) it is SVN ROM 1.2... this is the fastest, smoothest and most stable rom i have used until now on my shv-e120s.
Try that rom i am sure you will like it.
Thanks

Can someone port this to E120L please? Hehe

Bro i think you don't do much of research... this room was originally for e120l...and that was the reason i ported jt to e120s...
The latest miui version is available for your device.... search the web...

Thanks for that suggestion! I've reading for your post in several threads of forums-xda, and I found you put some links about it (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=45496210&postcount=54)... Now, is this ROM in english (or multilingual)? Because I couldn't find any information in the translated chinese post that you provided. And the other question is, what about the patches that you mention in your thread? They are specially good for something??
Thanks for your thoughts!

I have used the K version and like it but random silent calls make the rom unsuitable. has anyone a suggestion for the silent call issue? I find the same bug on all custom roms regardless of the Baseband I have flashed from stock I will test the latest baseband SHV-E120K[MK1]. here is a thread for the MIUI versions for L, S and K versions here Latest K and S versions are 3.11.22 L version is 3.7.12 Try this link here
