Hey guys, Need a little help here! I checked samfirmware and found XWKTQ for Spain.. I am using DDKQ8 for India as i live in India. Will everything be fine if I flash XWKTQ... Any other disadvantages like no root available or no hacks! Please tell.. Also I came to Stock for Stability and battery life not an isue so anyone know any other stable ROMs?
You can use the rom in India.
Major improvements:
1) Lock screen lag fixed
2) Better battery life
3) Faster system
etc....
Root is still problematic for me but some people have successfully rooted it.

HI GUYS, please do not burn me if this has been asked before but i have recently just moved from htc desire for 12 months to a galaxy s 1900.
i bought a new galaxy s with froyo 2.2.1 on-board but was crashing badly from loading apps.
basically looking a good samsung stock rom either froyo or gingerbread that will work fine on 3uk network
i hope to keep it stock for a month or 2 then flash a custom rom when the device has bedded in.
whats ur stock rom of choice for a 3uk user, so many just want forum users thoughts
http://www.samfirmware.com stock galaxy s firmwares
I flashed the XXJPY firmware from samfirmware and also added the speedmod kernel for added snappiness. That one worked brilliantly for me, but I have since.moved on to miui and am loving it.
I'm also a 3uk customer, and I have no problems accessing any of their services.

hi
yes ur right thats exactly what needs to be done it also worked for me
Didn't work for me. Now on Cherry Magnum HD Update 3. Smooth and very responsive. Everything works!
Stay off from CSL Spice 2.3.4 FB0-318D-0-5012-A03
I own a spice Mi-410. The A03 update seems to have greatly improved battery life (just over 3 days with limited calls, occasional fruit ninja, and data always on in 2G mode)
I started suffering from wake up lag issues on the official spice Gingerbread update FB0-318D-0-5012-A03 all of a sudden. An additional problem is that bluetooth support is very limited to receiving files on the stock Spice GB rom.
Since I had a good experience with the stock Cherry Magnum GB ROM A01 version (except for the lower battery life), I tried the more recent version (update 3) which is also an A03 release. I feel this is the best stock GB ROM currently for the Spice Mi-410. Of course removing some unnecessary bloatware also helps. For example I really do not see the need for nero sync. Also restored back the splash image and bootup animation/sounds from the Spice ROM. Having no issues for the last few weeks.

WellcoM A99's Gingerbread ROM is the most stable one (latest also) available, it's based on 3.18E build
ZERO software bug I've found so far... (assuming touch screen axis inversion & weak GPS signal are hardware problems)

IIRC I used SUT to flash that ROM
Sorry for the confusing statements. The A03 update is pretty good, but I had three issues with it.
1. Limited bluetooth support (try sending files from your phone with bluetooth). Have to use a third party app to deal with this problem.
2. GPS is quite poor. Takes a long time to get a lock.
3. Camera color balance does not work well.
4. Missing Android Gingerbread keyboard. In my opinion touchpal keyboard though better than the Froyo keyboard is not as good as the GB keyboard.
The A01 update which I tried caused issues with the wakeup lag but atleast had a working GPS and proper color balance.
For the reasons listed above I prefer the Cherry MagnumHD FB0-318D-0-5019-A03 ROM to the Spice FB0-318D-0-5012-A03 ROM.

Not sure what you mean by weak GPS signal and touch screen axis inversion. I get a GPS lock (outdoors) within 30s most of the time and within 60s all the time, with AGPS.

yeah, with A-GPS it sure is very fast... it is supposed to
I was talking about the vanilla offline GPS, slow & painful as hell 99% of the time
The vanilla offline GPS can take as much as 10-15minutes before it gets a GPS lock and this I mean outdoors. This is especially true if the GPS is offline for sometime as it has to download the ephemeris data again. For more information you can read http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GPS_signals.
Since Ideos X6 variants all use the Quacomm Snapdragon 8255 SoC there should be no difference in the performance of the system compared to say the HTC Desire HD or Desire-S. Any issues (and I have not found any GPS issues with the Desire-S which I tested for two weeks and neither found any with the Spice Mi-410) is likely to be firmware related. I did have GPS issues with the Spice Mi-410 GB A03 firmware which was very stable otherwise.
So likely a firmware issue.
You can also try the GPS Test app from the android market https://market.android.com/details?id=com.chartcross.gpstest&hl=en

MI410 Cancer with CHerry A03
Hi,
I have upgraded to Cherry Magnum HD A01, and it was all fine.
Upgraded to A03 (update 3), Battery Life has increased, and Touch felt as good, all was great till last week. Thats when issues started.
Problems:
1) Very slow response on trying to unlock screen
2) Very slow performance
3) Lag in ringtone (As if there are scratches while running a CD)
4) Call answers after 5 seconds
5) ....... Overall runs as if its struggling to survive with Cancer.
I Tried:
1) Cleared Cache (Helped for an hour)
2) Factory Rest (Helped for a day)
3) Reinstalled Firmware Removed Google Account running with new Google Account (Helping so far, aint sure when it start stuggling with Cancer again)
4)Tried to flash with Spice CSL A03 (dint work)
Any help in this regards will help many ambitious impatient users of MI410 like me who rushed to flash by re branding.
Hi.. Before few days i updated my galaxy note to the ics using kies.. The version was ddlp8 for india.. Now the version named xxlq2 has been released for uk.. I have a doubt that is it any different frlm the ddlp8?? Or is it same in performence as well like ddlp8 but under different package name? On dripller it mentikned that it is most stable version among all ics updates rolling out in diffrrent regions?? Plz clarify my doubt.. TIA!

i have same doubt, please post differences
The only thing different that we can be sure of is a naming difference. Samsung never gives any changelogs.
i cant see a difference other than csc however having said that i have had both on and find lpq to be smoother and more responsive
So what do you suggest? Should i flash xxlq2 via odin? Ddlp8 is quite smooth for me.

Installed lq2 and you will hv extra samsung apps..ie. play books,play movies and new samsung hub. .enjoy it!

There is absolutely no reason for you to switch roms if you are satisfied with the one you're currently running.
Im also using DDLP8 but i found it to be laggy compared to the stock GB ROM. Would definitely wanna try out the XXLQ2 if it is smoother.
Also in case of DDLP8, im facing the following issues:
1. when i connect BT mouse, 'Back' option is somehow not working. Both right and left click buttons are performing the selection function.
2. when i turn the 'Settings>Developer options>Force GPU rendering' on, S-Pen writing becomes extremely laggy while in screenshot mode (enabled by long pressing on any screen). However, writing in S-Memo/S-Note app remains smooth.
Can someone using XXLQ2 please check if these two bugs have been addressed or not?
N7000XXLQ2 UK ICS Stock (carphone warehouse N7000CPWLP4) + speedmod kernel seems to be the smoothest and the most stable combination.
I tested both.
For me XXLQ2 is smoother and better in battery consumption.

Curious if I should update to stock isc if available for xxla6, I'm aware of the dam emmc bug , battery drain , is it worth it any actual changes to os or real functionality? Thank you

Dear sonkameja,
I would wait. I recently returned to GB and I am waiting for a major update before I'll try again.

I have rooted, upgraded to ICS , running custom rom Criskelo with speedmod k3-3 after 3 days of purchasing the phone and have no issues with battery drain or other things. The phone is smooth like butter , no bugs , have all the GPU hardware accel, and all is looking perfect. However, it took patience, perseverance, and a lot of reading through threads by myself , as it's not just a 1 click upgrade to achieve what you desire.
Don't know about you, but I get : almost 4-4;30h of screen display time , all of it connected to wifi and browsing, checking stupid things online with an overall 15-18h "endurance time"... I mean, more of a tablet experience.
Cheers.

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
