Hi guys,
I have taken the delivery of a brand new sim free galaxy note and wonder if someone can help me with flashing custom roms.
Currently it's running 2.3.6 software and I have been prompted with a new software update...which I have not yet done.
I am a fan of CM roms and wonder if current CM10 is any good from camera and battery point of view?
Also how can I flash CM10 when coming from GB 2.3.6? Do I want to back up from recovery?
Thanks
Cm10 is not so stable right now
I tried it and felt like heavy battery drain
If you are interested,here is the detailed guide

Hello, i have my tab for quite a while now and I've been having this issue for months now, at first it didnt bother me but at times it gets frustrating. The thing is whenever I am using my tab, suddenly the tab doesn't respond(particularly the touch screen) and I have to lock the tab and unlock it in order to fix it. I had this issue when i was in stock 2.2 then upgraded to stock 2.3 and still had the issue. I Decided to flash with overcome 4.0 and still the issue is there, I hope someone can help me with this..
Theres a new rom out called icontact its really good and better thsm factory.im on the sprint gt so not much for me to choose from

can you give me the link and instruction to install the rom? thanks
If you have upgraded and tried some custom ROMs and are still having these issues, I would look into faulty hardware.
But if you want to try another ROM and have a CDMA(VZW) GT check out this custom ROM. Runs smooth and is stable and pre-rooted.

overcome is ROM for Galaxy Tab and other devices, i have the lastest version (4.0), it adds tweaks like Fastest GPS, Changue User Agent, Overclock, ETC. its much faster than stock due to Ext4 (lagfix), improved sound (Voodoo sound), better RAM control, i love it.
its very stable and fast than the stock gingerbread. you can find it in development section.
just follow the instructions to the letter and you will be fine.

Overcome was my first rom flashed on my tablet and overcome is fast and save a lot of battery.
The few days ago I flash miui and miui consume much more battery.
Hello guys
I need you help to decide either to stay to my stock gingerbread rom or root my phone and install cyanogenmod 9 on my Samsung Galaxy S GT-i9000
Please tell me which one is more stable and better to use..
Thanks in advance
Should just go with Cyanogenmod 10 Nightly. I use my phone every day and get no random reboots, stability issues or incompatible features/apps. Everything seems to work great. I can't see much of a reason to use CM9 since CM10 works so well
I moved to CM10 from XXJW4 2.6.4 and have no plans on rolling back.

I've been using CM9RC2 for a few months now and it's good. I find it a lot more stable and a lot faster than stock. However, I find I miss a lot of the small things about the stock ROM that just aren't in CM. The Contacts app is poor (can't link contacts, no Facebook integration) as is the stock Calender and the default music player that comes with it is atrocious.
If you can live with those, or are willing to pay for some appropriate replacement apps then I can definitely recommend going with CM
I'm always on gb, lately JW7 gb rom, ext4 format, Semaphore 2. 7.4. Reliable and fast.
Since a week I turned on a CM10. I like a lot, it's stable but very battery drainy and no faster than my previus gb JW7.
I think GB is still the best for our poor i9000...

I switched from Samsung GB to CM9 when it became stable mi-August (now I'm on CM9.1).
I don't plan to switch to CM10 until it is stable (or at least in RC stage) => and I hope it will become stable before 4.2 goes open source and pawitp starts working on next CM!
For me, my phone is much better with CM9: less reboots (I only had one in two months instead of one per week with GB).
My phone is generally more enjoyable: it is difficult to point specific functionnalities (there are many), but the user experience has been a big focus for Google in ICS, and the result is really great for me. I like stock applications a lot (even though contact app may indeed have less functionnalities than Touchwiz one). One the other side, I could not say if the phone is faster or not: so it your main concern is speed, the switch won't change much (unless you go with CM10 which is supposed to be faster). Main drawback for me is that MMS don't work anymore, but I guess it's a problem very specific to my case as I didn't find other people having my problem (and as I didn't use MMS a lot, I didn't take time to investigate heavily the issue).

Can any one help me out ... I m very much tensed Please please help me....:crying:
Just pull out the battery and then insert it after couple of minutes. Then power on while pressing 3 button combo and go to the download mode. Start Odin 1.7 in your PC and try to flash any stock gb rom.

You need to use Odin to get gingerbread bootloader before you can flash custom gb roms

you dont need odin but you have to flash a gb rom before you restore a gb backup (for the next time ) for now odin is the only way

I've installed CM10 after I was on CM9 for almost 2 months and I can say my phone works much better compared to GB and CM9. Everything's much faster and much smoother.
Gingerbread with root is very nice !! But me i use Macklay Rom ( jb)

Are you on some of the nightlies or on a stable?
hi guys
my i9000 boot loops a bazillion times before it finally decides to start up normally.
I was wondering what could be the cause of it and if there's a way to fix this
the phone is rooted on stock gb 2.3.3
(just rooted the phone, didn't flash any custom rom or kernel on it)
everything else works great, except the boot loop problem when I reboot the device sometimes
if flashing is a solution, please recommend something that works great with the i9000
I'm really thinking to flash it, but thought to ask here first
thanks!

Flashing it is probably the best option IMO you should give one of the many 4.2.2 ROMs a try the i9000 loves it

just use trusted kernel & good CWM from PhilZ or speedmod and keep watching sammobile for newer original ROMs from time to time and you are ok then.

actually i like to use odin and full rom from sammobile, samsung keep publishing roms for different contries, but they avoid bugs and hidden problem also,
i download a rom every quarter or so as usually i'm getting happier after that.
i used 4 roms JB till now, and the last one is the best ... yet
