http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1058814
thanks for the reply ill wait for the f1 and see
ICS 4.0.3 rc2.1 onecosmic
ICS 4.0.3 rc2.1 onecosmic
love these rom
ICS from onecosmic ist really cool, but think about the problems.
Some Apps dont run with this rom. For me, there ist no connection with MyPhoneExplorer. Also problems with unsing external SD, because it is rooted to mnt/emmc.
After flashing GOA 6.0 and some other custom roms, i am at the moment on doctorz rom 13.1 with no FCs or any other problems. It ist smooth, all apps are running..for me the best rom at the moment.
First thing you should decide if you want a 2.3.x ROM or a 4.0.x release. Then you can decide which ROM is right for you.
Check the screenshots and see what you like the most. I can advice MintBerry which is very fast and good looking, but since it's not based on a Samsung ROM you're gonna miss the Samsung Apps (as far as you can miss them).
Stable - any stock ROM or Stock Rom based; you can speed it up by using a different kernel (try semaphore) and/or tweaks (Thunderbolt's). I don's advise any ICS based ROM: they are still a little away from what I call ''stable''.
As for best... well, it depends on what you think. My advice is to try several ones. Each user has it's thoughts on what they think it's ''best''.
i want 2.3.x because i know ics isnt that stable and alot of things dont work still..
currently im on jvq 2.3.4 flashed with odin ( i don't have cwm because i dont know if it will void my guarantee :/ )
and a user above suggested jvt but i also saw jvz and im wondering which is better ( both 2.3.6 )
I have tried lots of roms, I found galaxydroid 3.3 gave best battery life, but 5.0 lost it. I am currently using mitrerom, and this seems very stable, nice tweaks, boots very fast and thus far have no issues. I am avoiding any 4.0 rom, as they are still all in beta stages and can still have issues. Best thing to do, is see what you like and flash, flash and flash. You cant do any wrong if you read the tutorials and take your time, oh and dont touch the bootloader!!
Buttwad. Why not to post a link to that "mitrerom"? I can't find it anywhere.

can someone post a download link for odin please ?
i cant find it anywhere
GingerReal2 R2.0.0 + Semaphore 2.4.0 i the best

Myhm... someone can.... first post here...
if i want to flash semaphore with odin i put it in the pda ?
it wont break stock jvz?
ANY kernel in Odin -passes as PDA.
JW1 with CWM-Kernel or SauRom ....
so stock jvz will work fine with semaphore 2.4?
bump :/ this is my last question
There is full hebrew language in the rom?
Also, someone that already work with this rom can tell me please how the rom terms to speed, how the battery life is, there is bugs or stucks?
Thanks for helpers
There is only English, German, French, Spanish and Italian.
It's a very fast ROM and I haven't experienced any bugs so far. If I don't use my phone much the battery lasts for about 3 days, otherwise about 2 days.

Thank you
I have more questions:
1) If i will install the rom, what is it the best kernel to install with the rom?
2) There is expected to come out new version soon for the rom or should I install the correct version of the rom?

1) I use MNICS because the battery life is very good. If you want a really fast kernel I would suggest Semaphore.
2) I don't know when the new version is coming out. It's up to the developer. You can install the current version and install the new version when it comes out.
a very good rom,the snappiest i have seen so far.a very good battery life with glitch kernel even with OC to 1.2
Hi guys!
Was searching for some info about switching from DarkyRom to ICS. Found out the Slim ICS is the most suitable. Found this topic. I have a noob question. Installing Darky was always easy for me, but this one needs some preparations.
So: "Download a latest CM9 ROM, My latest Base and YOUR device essentials."
Where do I get the CM9 rom? It's new to me. I am on 2.3.6 DarkyRom 10.4.2 (2.3.6).

Here's where you can get the latest CM9:
http://get.cm/?device=galaxysmtd
Here's the thread for the CM9 nightlies.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1592131
CM9 is the ICS version of CyanogenMod. The update from Gingerbread to ICS is a bit more complicated than just jumping around between ICS ROMS, so it looks like Arvind is recommending you make the jump to CM (a big community project with lots of support) and then switch from there to his ROM.
Thanks, I figured it out, but I have a huuuge problem. My IMEI changed. It is something like 04999... I have no backups. Flashing Darky was sooo easy. I have a nice working Slim ICS but with no service... Crap, will try to revert to stock, but I feel it won't help...
Hi lads!
Reverted back to stock rom JVT and vuala, my imei is back! Did a full ODIN flash with repartition as explained in Totallydubbed's guide on his wesite...
Hi,
Recently i have just switched from IPhone to Galaxy Note, while really need some advise on get it "rooted" and flash with ICS (Since many people feed back its eventually better" perhaps someone can guide me a proper way of backing up my system as well as flashing it?
my phone details as below:-
Model - GT-N7000
Android Version - 2.3.6
Baseband - N7000DXKL2
Kernel Version - 2.6.35.7-N7000XXLA1(I suppose this should be KJ1? but on my phone it shows this...)
Build number - GINGERBREAD.XXLA1
in such situation should i proceed to get it flash with the KJ1 method?
yes your ROM is newer, so you have to downgrade it.
You can downgrade to KJ1 pre rooted ROM, download link you may find on 4th line on my signature.

So in summary all i need to do is to downgrade my ROM to KJ1, follow the guide to root it, then only flash it to ICS?
by doing all these will it void the warranty of the phone?
Forget about ICS for right now..I would consider it advanced to install and for beginners I would stick to rooted GB builds until you got more familar with the phone and flashing etc..

Yes, Get Root + CWM
To install ICS, follow installation guide available with ICS ROM you want to install
Somwat agree with MrDSL, at least you shud read a lot before installing ICS.
Warranty can be regain by Reflashing Stock ROM.
Yup, indeed doing more research before i proceed to flash my SGN, sincerely thank you for all the advise and guidance though.
Rooting is pretty clear to you now I think.
As for flashing ICS ROMs, I don't actually agree with anyone above. I have earlier flashed TeamRocket's ICS ROM, Imilka's AOSP ROM and ICS Stunner on my note. ICS Stunner is actually one of the best you could have for ICS. (Almost everything works, or rather everything actually works ). Now I am using Imilka's CM9 port from SGS2, very very smooth, stable and most of the things work. Download and install instructions are pretty clear in their respective threads. I would actually suggest you to go ahead with ICS ROMs (ICS Stunner or CM9 especially)!
PM me if you need any help!

slim ics 4.2 with seapahore kernel......
stable,lag free with excellent battery.....
Another thread with the same question! ICS333 in my experience is the best, though slim is one of the few I haven't tried!
Sent from my GT-I9000 using Tapatalk 2
I'd also root for Slim, faster than CM9 in my experience and never disappointed me. No need to flash Semaphore though IMO, the stock kernel also is working great.
I dont own the S1 anymore, but before i sold it, i have used "DarkyROM". This was the best ROM i've ever used. Fast, stable and good.
I i would the S1 again, i would install DarkyROM again.
RemICS v1.3
I use it daily and it's wonderful...
I would say cm9 with devil kernel.
I used TeamICSSGS' rom. Was very happy with it but today swapped it for Jelly bean.
for crying out loud, there's about 5 threads like this now .....why don't you people just read? ! :banghead::banghead::banghead:
Well said slappy....
In addition to it, dont ask which one is good as the one good for someone wont fit in your case so best answer it just test roms until you find the one for you ;-)

I9000 powered by RemICS-UX
Try ParanoidAndroid ROM BEST for me

i read similar threads but didnt get good answer. Am new to rooting so wanted to make sure am doing it right with right ROM.
Thanks for the reply.
I want to flash CM 9 nightly build. Which version should i choose? Which is a stable build for daily use?
Also if i want to flash Slim ICS is it mandatory to flash CM9 first?
current ROM - Value pack 2.3.6
Kernel - CF root kernel.
Best and best looking is RemICS!!

very smooth and best design of all ICS roms, for me

Get CM9 RC2 which has been released today. Its stable version.
You can directly install Slim ICS. There is no need to install CM9 before installing Slim ICS.

Ics333 has worked perfectly in my SGS. I'm using semaphore kernel with it.

Darky rom ONLY does official Samsung ROMs... since ICS was never officially released for the i9000 , there is no Darky ICS rom for the galaxy S...
Edit: OK so it seems after Darky Rom split and the others formed TeamAlliance, Darky has decided to make AOSP ROMs as well while Alliance doesn't...
Therefore cdwriter was right... there is a Darky ICS...

Best ICS ROM?
I have tried almost ALL the ICS Roms out there. And i can confidently say that i have found AOKP to be the baddest of 'em all. Not even CM9 mind you.
Make sure you use the NEW DataFix script by Windego (the 20120524) and NOT the older one (20120329).
Use the ROM with Devil Kernel (0.79 version) Choose Voodoo Colors or CMC, your choice. Before flashing this kernel, make sure you remove the already included init.d datafix script. (Open the package in WinRAR, navigate to system > etc > init.d > remove file named "S30dafafix)

Yes, DarkyRom is on of the best roms... Hope that Darky will make a JB rom soon
You can try SLIM ICS by karvind. The ROM is pretty fast, smooth and stable. I was using it till Build 4.1 and I switched to JB
Got a friend with a StraightTalk Captivate SGH i897 that is sluggish and driving her crazy, so I want to root and get her on a stable 4.1 or better. Any of you guys have an unlocked version that flash? Should I stick with an AT&T ROM?

Nope. Throw Cyanogenmod on that baby.
GB: CM7
ICS: SlimICS
JB: CM10.1.3
4.2.2 performance wise is the same as 4.1, but you get access to Google Now and a few more tidbits here and there (like the new Clock app)

Thanks for the reply, knew if I was patient someone would chime in.
I poorly worded my question.......I really should have instead asked if I can flash the i897 like any other Captivate? Same root process, etc?

Pretty much. With Samsung device, you don't even have to root it.
1. Get Odin/Heimdall
2. Flash a kernel with CWM
3. Flash Cyanogenmod 7
4. Flash whatever rom you want.

No need to flash CM7. Easy to follow update guide here -> Guide.
I recommend CM10.1.3 Stable as first custom ROM, Android 4.2.2 based.

I find that some kernel don't play well with the Cyanogenmod 9/10/Any other ICS JB roms, especially if they're kernel for AOSP, and the whole BML to MTD process gets a little iffy(it never boots, just constantly reboot to recovery, partitions can't be formatted, mounted partition are always empty). If you're starting from a Samsung ROM's kernel, it goes OK most of the time, but if you start from Semaphore JB or GearKernel or another AOSP kernel, the installation process just skipped the BML to MTD conversion, or screw it up somehow. It may just be me, but doing one extra step can't hurt
The phone in question runs stock ROM. First needs to be updated to GB 2.3.x, than Corn Kernel + CM10.1 Stable will update it to JB 4.2.2. No need to flash another GB-based ROM after the stock GB. CM10.1 Stable installation process has no issues with Corn Kernel. Tested many times.
