[Q] The most Stable 4.1 / 4.2 ROM avaible? - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello, i want to change my friend I9000 that he bought but can't use 3G , only GPRS. (That is not the problem, so don't mind this)
He asked me for checking this and find out what's wrong, well i was looking around stuff and figured out the phone is using lidroid 1.2 (Android 2.3.4 , kerlen 2.6.35.7 , bandbase I9000ZSJPJ)
I already know the basics of ROM stuff (I have a Galaxy Y , i have already changed the ROM and other stuffs, so you guys don't need to explain the very basics)
So, i was looking for a Jelly Bean ROM, 4.1 or 4.2 to use on his phone, my requeriments are basic:
- A nice, simple ROM
- Crash as hard as possible
- Less bugs possible (Specially on basid daily things like calling, camera, gaming ,other stuff)
- Have Portuguese language and support the Brazilian frequencies (its international so whatever)
What do you guys recommend? Plus, is I9000 modding safe? What are the chances of something going wrong? because - If something goes wrong and can't be fixed, he will kill me plus i will have to give my cellphone to him

Well first of all if your friend asks you to help him, he should know that flashing can always crash the rom!
Something can happen always. Let him do the flashing. If you help him and something happens it does not have to be your fault
I can recommend Xylon or C-Rom by Aways
all of them run pretty smooth and stable

[Q] Arabic language support in Galaxy Tab

Hi
I have T-Mobile Galaxy Tab. Is there any way to make it support Arabic language?
THANX....
Yes just flash the middle eastern rom. either the jpjm4 or the jpjm5.
Sent from my GT-P1000 using XDA App
I'm also looking for Arabic support. Mine is Galaxy Tab with stock rom
PDA : P1000ZHJK1
PHONE : P1000ZHJJ1
CSC : P1000ZZHJJ3
Is it ok if I flash an older ROM like P1000OJPJJ1 ? I heard that the newer rom has protected bootloader.
Thanks.
But then you can use the chainfire program to remove the bootloader files.
Use this rom:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=933028&highlight=jpjm4
It’s fast and has no bootloader issues. The jpjm5 doesn't seem to have anything better really. Like you I am cautious about upgrading. I bought my tab in November and I used to change my rom like every dew days to try different things but since I installed the jpjm4 from @galaxer, I didn't change it because it’s super fast and everything works perfectly in it. Also have great Arabic fonts. I also flashed this kernel with it:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=924654
It works great and extends my battery life to at least 2 days, but this is optional you don't need to do this.
Another option you have is to flash the beta CM7 gingerbread (Android 2.3), it supports Arabic, but it has tons of issues because its beta. I don't recommend it to be your main working rom, you can flash it to play with and check it out.
I hope this helps
That is a freakin' awesome post!
Thank you very much I will try to flash the JPJM4 today.

I am on the same ROM AND Kernel the only thing i dont like about this ROM (And it is not an issue, really!) but i just dont like the few white lines that flashes when you boot your TAB. And regarding the kernel it doesn't enhance your battery performance unless you under-clock your CPU and you dont need that kernel just to do that, you can always get SetCPU and underclock. This kernel is for over clocking to 1.4Ghz and it does eat-up your battery EVEN though using SetCPU i have set the maximum to 1.4Ghz and minimum to 600Mhz
Just to let you know
Thanks every body
I install the rom mention above but i got two problmes
1- no market app in it. "easy i will find one"
2- i cant receive file through Bluetooth ??!! " I want solution for it if any one can?"
Yesterday i found Orange Rom which support Arabic but i couldn't change the arabic font ?!?!
My bluetooth and market arw working fine anare you sure you flashed everything correctly?
Regarding these lines in the begenning, I saw them in many other kernels before, they used to bather me too, but I dont care anymore . It lasts for like half a second and goes away. Also, this kernel allows you to change the battery voltage which is not an option with any kernel.
Sent from my GT-P1000 using XDA App
After you flash the middle eastern rom flash the overcome kernal (2.01) and the ugly lines will go away and you will have your language.
Thanks Rangercabtain I wiped to factory rest then I flash overcome kernal (2.01)
now every thing OK
THANX every body

RemICS on Galaxy S Plus

Hello, I would like to install the ROM : Remics 1.4 on my galaxy s plus.
Here is the link : Remics 1.4
The problem is, I don't have a lot of knowledge regarding those kind of stuff, I'm actually using Cm9 beta 4 and I would live remICS since it ressembles more like Touchwiz. The tutorial is not really easy to use for a beginner (Is it mandatory to format? What does FIX PERMISSION mean?) So if someone could actually help me or make a video it would be GREATLY appreaciated.

First take a nandroid backup for safe. then reboot into recovery mode and follow the instruction
which is well stated on the ROM page step by step point 1 to 6.
If y face errors, repeat the steps.
My Device: SGS I9000 16gb
OS: Android
Chipset: Hummingbird 1~1.4 GHz Cortex-A8 PowerVR
Jelly Bean ROM: Slim Bean[4.1.1] v2.2 kernel: Semaphore
Modem: XXJVU
Thanks for your advice, I actually still have a few question (I prefer to be well informed before I try anything "dangerous")
- What is the FIX PERMISSION thing and is it mandatory?
- Is formating mandatory too? (does that mean I can still restore my sms, contacts and stuff)
- Above all, is this rom stable? I mean, no big problem for a daily use? Camera working fine and so on?
And also, which one should i take? 1.4 or 1.4a?
Also, which one would you recommend me? 1.4 or 1.4a? I can't tell the difference haha

[Q] What ROM should I choose

Hello, i use custom rom of gingerbread (XXJW4) with semaphore kernel and now i'm thinking about ICS or jelly bean. Are these versions stable and every functions of my I9000 will work? Could you recommend me any ROM + kernel? I don't know which one I should choose. I'm still not sure if i really need ICS or JB, but I want to change my actual ROM, because it isn't so stable. Actually what will change for me? I've installed go launcher so newer touchwiz will be probably unused.
Greetings

are you talking about this?
I have one more question.
I use 'hacked' camera and fm radio apks from this forum (without low battery lock and some other features). I can't imagine that I couldn't use camera below 15% of battery if my I9000 can still work for next few hours of awake. I can see these mods are builded for Froyo, GB, e.g.: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=980835 Will I be able to use it with android 4.1?

Short answer, No
Although to be honest, I'm unsure if there is such a restriction in Cyanogenmod (the ROM I use).
CM10 is completely stable (despite there being no official "stable" release as yet).
Non-Samsung ROMs do not have Samsung Apps which include the FM Radio App.
As such, Cyanogenmod does not have FM radio support inbuilt, but you can install Spirit FM either the free version (restricted) from xda or paid, full version from the Play Store.
Skip ICS. The media bug in it is a pain in the **s. Really annoying.
All JB roms here are good, just check the correspondent OPs carefully.
thanks for your answers, so i will try this cyanogen10 JB, but earlier I have one more question
Is there any kernel for I9000 which implements the two-way-call-recording function?
I didn't see a call recording function since gb... Would be nice to know if that is still possible?
@alexri, i saw call-recording apps especially for i9000 only for Froyo. Do you know any good app for GB?
I tried many 'MIC recording apps' from google play, but in everyone when the recording starts my caller stops to hear me (in some apps it happens instantly, in others just in about 1st or 2nd second of call). I try also Total Recall and his 'strategies' of recording, but always the problem cames up. I think my ROM locks that function so this is the next reason of my looking for new soft.
Anyone using RemICS-ux on an I9000M? Every post I've seen suggests its close enough to the international version not to have issues.
RemICS uses the XXJVT modem. Should I use the KG3 modem if I flash it? Thanks.
Hi,
Plz suggest any stable & working Jelly Bean ROM with FM Radio.

[Q] samsung ace kernels for wifi,roms

so my question is about kernels.i download multiple roms and try them.each of this rom has unique problem and its really frustrating what to install on,to work for all what i need.i need more ram,i saw the post and tutorial and made exactly all steps.anyway,ofc it didnt work.i found some replay says about custom kernel.so,if i install any kernel,does affect on rom,does version of android stays same????any kernel can be installed to rom i have atm??i didnt found any answer about that.today im dealing all day with this on forum,checking all ower for answers and it driving me mad cause i still cant comment on some post and i really need it.cause of that im spanding hours for my ace to have all what i need. big internal memory,bigger size of ram working camera and no lag rom.you my think im spanding time for a sh1tty phone,well thats true.another question:is there any kernel(tweak)for wifi???i have ace and huawei in same room.ace wifi works just sux as much as he can,whatever rom i put on,wifi going still sux,disconecting etc on each rom i installed.my huawei phone also ****ty phone more than ace,the wifi works non stop at full signal,black market works fast,google play works fast.on ace black market works slow as snail on whatever rom i install,google play works normal,on some roms slow and lagy.so i saw comments about wifi.people said about router to configure,well its just stupid,cause i have 2 phones in my room and i see what is going on.simply,ace has most sh1ty wifi ever and modem has nothing to do,my 2nd room is 5meters away from modem,just 5 meters and ace cant handle,thats really lame.so,any solutions about that i would be really apriciated .
If you change kenrel, android version will remain same.
No disconnect issue with me..
On rom JB CM10.
I had experienced that problem in CM7 ROMS.
And you cannot install any kernel on any rom.
See compatibility.

Patience my friend x)
What wifi problem do you have? Unable to detect Adhoc connection?
Have You tried this Kernel + Rom ? (All JB rom is unable to scan adhoc wifi. Except if you make changes to the source and compile it yourself)
If you want to surf the internet but with not using wifi and using a cable, This is a Post for you.
use back stock ROM (just kidding

Maybe the rom + kernel combination is wrong or the rom is just being buggy.
I just personally liked nAa's work because he release a stable version of every product.
If you want to change into the recommended rom that I just told you;
1. Flash the latest kernel (06)
2. Follow instruction on the kernel post. (/system wipe at recovery before flashing a rom & etc)
3. Flash the rom. Followed by the GAPPS
4. As it said, this is my recommendation steps. I do not guarantee your satisfactory
