I started using CM9 and so far it looks good & stable . I have a few questions :-
1) How to find csc and how to change ?
I am not able to find some app in playStore which were earlier available. I believe its due to csc change after CM9 installation. Please advise if there is any other reason.
2) How to increase the size of letter in the stock keyboard ? I could not find it in the settings.
3) Voodoo sound did not work but I got it working after installing semaphore kernel. SGS flash kernel app did not work so I could not back up my stock kernel. If I have to revert to the stock kernel then should I just flash CM9 without wiping data ?
Is there a way to make voodoo sound work with stock kernel ?
4) Flipping & Scrolling on the screen is not very smooth, any suggestions on this
5) Stock music app does not have a search option (samsung's stock music app has a search which was very useful ) . Any other app from market which can provide this feature ?
Another issue : it started giving me low memory error even though the system showed a lot of free ram & internal memory. I had to move back to stock JW4.
I will appreciate if some one can help on the above questions/issues, that will help me in trying ICS ROM again.
Thanks in advance !

Hello All,
Since i still cannot post any comments in the DEV forum i wanted to ask few questions for the Juwe's Rom 4.3.1 developers who helped to create something almost perfect.
I am a very heavy user for the I9000 SGS and i have been trying Juwe's 4.3.1 ROM and i noticed few things.
1- The device is overheating when i am using the you tube application .
2- The battery performance is great only when you are disabling data networks , due to the nature of my work i have to keep it up at all times , and the battery drains is faster than the stock gingerbread release 2.3.3
3- Front camera is not working properly using the camera application but works perfect on video calls.
4- This is not related to this ROM in particular but i also witnessed it on the Simplyhoney v3 ROM as well - There are applications that i cannot find on the android market such as ( Whatsapp messenger , flash player , angry birds , advanced task killer , bubbles , islamic salat widget , hijri calendar ,.. )
5- Last is the arabic patch doesn't have keyboard ?! " can some one help with it please "
Note : The files stored for the TW4 is corrupted on both hotfile and deposit , please check this as well.
Yet thanks for the creators of the ROM and the team helped them it is some piece of work .
Regards,
Ahmed A Gad

Re flashed XWJVH and reinstalled juwes rom, everything works again.
Boot animation loop
Hi all,
I have been a darky fan all along and decided today to try out Juwe's new rom. I followed his instructions exactly.
Previously, I was on Ficeto's JVP base rom, Dark Core 2.7.3.
I disabled voodoo lagfix, booted into Download mode and flashed stock firmware from samfirmware.com - I9000XWJVH 2.3.3
When using Odin (v1.3), I only placed the the stock firmware in PDA. I checked re-partition and used the appropriate pit file.
Then phone rebooted normally, and then I used 3-button combo to get it back into Download mode. I used Odin again to flash the CF-Root v3.2 Kernel (Re-partition UNTICKED)
Then I flash Juwe v4.3.1 (wipe) via CWM. Wipe cache + Dalvik.
everything has gone well so far, then I boot the phone and it loads Juwe's Smart Edition animation - Earth shaking animation.
However it continues to replay this boot animation forever!
I tried reflashing from the beginning multiple times and it still doesn't work! Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks,
Ahilen
Wait,tomorow juwe release new version based on jvp and i mean withot bug
Just upgraded my I9000 to 2.3.6 JW4 and added a rooted kernel.
Since no kernel with features are available for this firmware, what hacks can I make manually?
Stuff like Voodoo sound, BLN, etc. (links to the corresponding threads would be nice).
Thanks.
Voodoo sound.. Search up in market

Did u try these: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=24256059&postcount=448
Yeh those mods worked a treat for me - I also installed this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1571527
Odex version worked for me - my favourite aspect: landscape home that actually rotates quickly for once
This (and plants vs zombies) is giving me a hard time deciding whether to go back to aokp ics ...
That rom started randomly freezing up on my so restored to a nandroid version with just the mods - still enjoying jw4, contemplating slim ics...

Don't I need a kernel with Voodoo support for this? Or having root is enough?

Voodoo Sound Plus doesn't need kernel support. Just having root is enough, though it's a paid app.
Also consider installing ThunderBolt! for some speed/battery life increase
pantrif13 has some good hacks and themes for jw4

Hey people. I would like to thank you guys for teaching me how to root and beibg patient with me. Yes i have done it. I succesfully rooted my phone. My next question would be, how fo i fix the lag on my phone? I tried olcf, which does not works on my phone as I am using gingerbread 2.3.3 . What are the methods to fix the lag? Thanks.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda premium
U should try minfreemanager from the market. It kills apps faster by it self and improved my phone's speed.
Dl. "Easy cache cleaner" from market, it's developer is bazinga and just clear your cache once or twice a day.that will usually fix most lag.
Yes you could clean your cache but why don´t you flash a good rom? if you want to sty on gingerbread than you should check:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1344489 and flash the latest semaphore kernel
If you want android 4.0.4 you should check: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1572705 and flash the latest semaphore ics 1.1.1s.
This are my favorite roms, because the batterylife is very good, they are very fast and there are no lags.
And you should download a taskkiller wich kills annoying apps in the background. This makes your phone faster and the batterylife is better.
Oh. Thanks for your advices. However, can someone please help me overhere? I know that flashing a rom increases your phone's speed greatly. I followed all the instructions from youtube, however when I was about to install the .zip file from my phone in recovery mode, it got aborted everytime it begins. Please help me.
dont use any task killers as it runs in the background and drains your battery. the best way is to flash a new rom.try out the slim ics rom.
Is there any link that you could provide of flashing a rom for my gingerbread 2.3.3?

If you whant a gingerbread rom then you can use odin it is easy
in this thread you can see how you can flash with odin it´s only for gb roms --> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=17485710
you must have 4 files: a pit file, a code file, a modem file and a csc file you can see this at the thread i used this gb rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1344489 it was fast and had a great batterylife with this kernel: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1112908
but this rom looks also nice: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1626068
If you want a ics rom then you should flash a semaphore kernel, because you need a new recovery mod and then you can install the zip from your sdcard
I use this Taskkiller: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.liveov.rebooter&feature=search_result
it doesn´t run in the background and kills all uneeded apps and you can reboot your device fast when you have root
I am using (was) JW6 but because of connectivity problems I had to leave it and now rely on the forum to advice me as to which JW6 I should download and install since the Australian download went bad on me. I live in Thailand but Asia section does not have the 2.3.6 version at all.
My question is :
Which particular version of JW6 to download.
How to root. ( would JW4 root do ? )
Kernel.
Which kernel should I use. And that , does selection of the right kernel for the firmware determine connectivity, smoothness, etc ? ( especially connectivity ? )
Await your kind reply ,
Thanks !
Hey have you ever completely wiped your phone, meaning reformat internal sd wipe both caches and wipe data, reflash base. You seem to be having some problems and bouncing from rom to rom is not going to solve it if you just carry your problems to the next rom. Wipe your phone completely and go from there.

Thanks. I will start format now.

Hello, i have few question to ask. I've installed ics333 rom in my sgs 3 days ago and i've prob with battery drain out, camera focus not nice compared to before using froyo and yesterday i noticed that the battery indicator has missing. I heard devil kernel quite stable. How to change kernel? If i want to change to slim ics how to do that? Hope somebody can guide me. Thanks
Hello,
I suppose your phone is root.
If I right, You have to go in CWM mode (combo with Button sound up+menu+power)
then, in this mode : install zip from internal SD then look for the files of the Slim : (base+common). But don't forget the Wipe (take a look here : http://www.slimroms.com/installation.htm)
It is the same operation with the kernel
meaning i've to change ics333 to slim ics right? root mean got superuser in the phone?
which devil kernel you can suggest?
