Well if you have searched the development section - you would have probably known that there ain't much Roms available !
And yes you can remove stock apps after rooting .
Also you can get back to stock by flashing firmware of your region via odin

The devs are still trying to get a working recovery to us. Give it time.

[ROM] [STOCK] CUBE / CUBE_lean_v2 (root) | v20g-2.3.3

[ROM] [STOCK] CUBE / CUBE_lean_v2 (root) | v20g-2.3.3
DISCLAIMER: I'm not responsible if anything happens to your phone. Use this at your own risk.
Based on stock v20g, but recovery flashable. Will not update your baseband. Works only on the new baseband.
There are two versions
CUBE - 100% equal to stock.
CUBE_lean - stripped down and rooted.
Important:
Do not upgrade from Froyo to any of these ROM, you won't have GSM/UMTS then.
If you already have the new baseband you can use this.
If you do not have the new baseband you can not use this.
Do not use LGMDP to flash this ROM.
FAQ:
Q: Oh no! Yet another gingerbread ROM?
A: This is not yet another, it is the stock one, just in different packaging.
Q: And why do i need that again if there is a stock ROM already?
A: If you do not want to flash via lgmdp but rather use your already existing clockwork mod recovery.
Q: What's the problem with using lgmdp?
A: It flashes more than you need if you just wanted to downgrade. And it flashes "dangerous" areas of the phone making it more prone to create a brick.
Q: Mobile data is not working after flashing this rom. What now?
A: Go to settings and set the APN manually. Consult google for your operator settings.

So i stil need to pre install original GB over froyo to test this? Or this is it?
Why this ROM??
Adds no value at all. You have to flash original ROM to get use this ROM. And this is original ROM

Yes. If you already have the original GB, then you have no use for this. If you've gone further and flashed a custom GB rom and now want back again without flashing anything vie lgmdp: this is for you.
Just flashing this zip "ALONE" via recover will get me lg based gingerbread? :O
If so its cute... Dnt temme I need to flash the baseband before flashing this thing

No it won't. This won't upgrade your baseband. You need a new baseband already. This ROM is when you don't want to flash the baseband again to get back to stock.
It's confusing ... I m on Mick's CM7- 6.5.5. Can I just flash the zip file as normal to upgrade to this ROM?

Mik's CM7-6.5.5 is using the old baseband. So you can't.
I think i'm gonna clarify this a bit better in the first post.
Another GB rom...i can't stand on this any more :|

this kind of posts should not be here, this is ROM doesn't give anything to the comunity, this should to be moved to general o another section.
This is actually pretty useful. I was wanting to go back to the stock GB kernel/ROM (having too many issues with the custom ones), but I didn't want to go through the whole ordeal of using LGMDP again. Thanks for this.
You also need lgmdp to change the baseband, so its ridiculous

It can't be flashed without a computer. It needs KDZ/LGMDP.
Sent from my LG-P500 using XDA App
I'm curious. Has somebody already used the provided ROM and had success flashing and running it?
I wasn't able to flash via LGMDP, for some reason it kept going into fastboot.
I flashed this and everything is perfect.
All you hating should just shut up. This helped me a lot.
Thank you.
BTW - rooting doesn't work and the APN's and settings and bookmarks and everything are from a different carrier, not mine.
Weird but... whatever.
I just want it rooted. Anyone that can help?
Why would you want to use this?
Install gingerLOL which is rooted and cleaned. Its still slow because its still based on official crap but certainly faster than this.
I think is useful enough...
You have to use lgmdp tool just once ,not again and again to change from v20g to v20c or other downgrades,just flash this rom and then flash any official gb rom you want instead of using lg tool again...
But if you want to flash a froyo rom then you have to use lg tool again....
All these if i understand good,
Or not????

[Q] Custom Rom flash gone wrong ?

I just upgraded my phone to 2.3.4 with the custom rom "simply Honey" http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1020720
the installation went smoothly without any hassles and i successfully flashed my device using odin, however, i am not able to access any UI modification features or themes. I even installed the Tw4(modded) version from the addon list through CWM Recovery mod and when i reboot there is no trace of tw4, the phone acts as it was before. There seems to be no tw4 in the home switcher app too. Can someone help me ? one of the reasons for me to use a custom rom was that i could mess around with the fact how the phone looks.
Yaar i think that rom didnt give you modification right so thats why you are avlw to change launcher.

[Q] laggy!!!

my 10 day old galaxy s is very laggy!!! it is rooted too.. can anyone help me please and can someone tell me how do i unroot... i rooted with chainfire's cf-root.. thanks
If you find it laggy now, unrooting it would probably be the wrong step to take, as root is required for the majority of modifications you can do to your phone.
Overclocking your phone will provide you with more performance. I would also recommend checking out Pikachu01's scripts, as they will help immensely. Also, make sure none of your apps are monopolizing your CPU in the background.
I'm sure others will have a ton more advice to give. Tweak your phone to work how you want it and you'll be more than pleased, I guarantee it. My SGS certainly does not lag on me, but it did take a little tweaking to get it there. Good luck!
If you want someone to help you, you need to provide more information. What version of firmware are you currently running?

First of all thank you everyone for your time...
yes my galaxy s is very laggy and im using
Firmware: 2.3.3 (updated by kies)
Baseband: I9000XXJVO
Kernel: 2.6.35.7-I9000XWJVH-CL184813 [email protected] #2

I Know unrooting will make lag more but i want to know a solution for unrooting in case i need my warranty back....
Upgrade to 2.3.6 JVZ here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1102881
Root with Semaphore 2.1.1 JVZ here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1112908
Follow all instructions on how to flash in first link. There are screenshots and intructions on How to Flash. Notes: Use the 512pit file, and when you flash semaphore, put it in the PDA section. Put phone in Download mode, power down completely, and press power, home and volume down.
If you want your phone fast and lag free then you may have to step outside your comfort zone. You will not find a magic app to make your current firmware fast, its just not. The links Ive given you have downloads and info on how to make your phone fast and lag free. The first link will even contain a download of your current firmware. To find out exactly what your current firmware is, including PDA, Phone and CSC, open up your dialer and press *#1234#, write that info down it will be helpful for you identifying what to download in case you want to flash back to stock for warranty purposes.

My friend also said his lagged after rooting, there is a unrooting script
Just download Semaphore or TalonDEV kernel AND Thunderbolt scripts that you need.
Unrooting shall accomplish nothing. You need a new kernel and scripts/tweaks like Thunderbolt has.

I don't think there are to many kernals available for his 2.3.3 jvh. Upgrade first.

NO i don't want to unroot but i want to know if there is a possibility to do it... I son't want to flash other kernels because my phone is 10 days old (11)) i just want it to become like when i purchased it.. thanks you guys for your support and your time...
You won't lose your warranty because of root. Samsung does not care if phone is rooted or not. Just like the others say : download a custom firmware with custom kernel and use pikachus thunderbolt scripts.
This is the only way to help you
To unroot you just have to flash the stock firmware that came with your phone (you can see a list in SamMobile site). Easier way if you just want to unroot is to flash stock kernel (unrooted one).
If you just want to phone to its original state when you bought it. Then power it down. Then hold power, home, and volume up all together. This will put you into recovery mode. Do a wipe data, wipe cache, then go to advanced and select wipe dalvik cache. Then reboot your phone. If you're still not satisfied with your phone then also reformat your internal usb under settings> storage. You will lose all info on your phone so do a back up of important data. This is where root is good because you can use titanium backup. After reset your phone will however still be rooted.... But you won't be even close to unleashing the real full potential of your phone unless you upgrade your firmware and kernals with Thunderbolt.

Gingerbread has always been laggy due to lack of ram. If you want a really good and absolutely lag-free rom, I really recommend that you flash your phone to Froyo 2.2.1 (ZSJPK). It has been the best rom I've used, compared to JVT, JVZ, AOSP ICS roms, and a bunch of other custom roms.
Agree about GB, its best if you remove all the Samsung bloatware and services, and try not to use apps that use up RAM via services.
I use stock jvt with all the bloat removed, a nice theme, and semaphore 2.4.0 bm and it runs very well. I do have to freeze facebook when not in use, but it makes a difference. I also tuned ext4

Well why don't you flash a custom rom, there are plenty of them with amazing speeds and you shud try them, also you can simply use a lag fix like the one from voodoo if you don't want to get into the rome and stuff.
another question guys.. i have 2.3.3.. i tried to update ( through kies) but it says i'm up to date.. because the thunderbolt kernel requires minimum 2.3.4, how do i update it???

[Q] {Q} Paranoid Droid v0.2

Hi
Long time observer & admire you guy here on what you do, this website has helped alot but now i finally have a question.
With Paranoid Droid v0.2 i have followed Dr.Ketan's guide to downgrade & then root/install cwm & then update back to 2.3.6 via ODIN Mobile, the root is cf-root on a Galaxy Note, can i flash this rom with what i have currently?
Thanks in advance.
You are on rooted Gb and yes you can flash it safely. Wipe data and cache and flash the rom ...then flash the gapps. All done
I assume i flash it with ODIN Mobile & not from CWM?
I think i got it (it installed all fine etc) via CWM.

The S-pen apps will not work in this rom.
Thanks for the info, but i have now gone back to official firmware, so i assume only roms tweaked from the original source will have the feature set still? even so it was also missing the built in FM Radio app to listen to local radio without needing to stream it.
On a side note, whats the deal i been hearing with Touchwiz 5.0 some people say its on the Note others same its 4.0. Which version is it & what is the differences?

Pure latest official

Hi im looking for the latest pure stock without bloadware and root and/if any tweaks like 5way reboot..and stuff like that...i wasn't able to find something...and i have to flash this cause my costumer didnt like cm10.1 (dah) and want official rom thanks!!!

If you have problems with CWM you should check here the points 8 and 26 to 30. I have the some problem but unfortunately I have no clue how to fix it, even with those tips, but maybe it'll work for you. And if you'll find any easy way to install CWM for stock recovery <3e> please let me know, I've been struggling with it for quite some time now.
Also remember to choose right CSC when installing stock rom - you can check what your code is here.
