[Q] Wifi Problems - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys... I'm having wifi issues...
I did not have any issues with wifi when I was on stock. I'm having issues when I flash SuperNexus 3.0.
Some people suggested that I shud try different roms and then report... I tried Gamerz v4.0 and now I'm on CyanAOSP v5.0
What could possibly be wrong???? Can some-one please suggest me steps to make it work fine...
PS: I have not flashed any kernels in any rom... I just used the kernels they came along with...

Aways is great dev, but IMO his ROMs go quite far away from stock, he likes experiments. If you were fine with stock based ROMs, consider the CM10.2 as it is close to stock but not conservative at all. Here good idea how to get it bug-free, check my post of this morning, there you can track whole the step-by-step workflow:

Will 2.3 do???
So you mean to say I should flash 2.2 and then root and install CM10.2....
Can I flash 2.3.6? As I already have its .tar file...
Thanks for ur reply tetakpatak...:good:

Yes, you can try that as well. But it was exactly my point, as I could have observed that most of people who have bugs with CyanogenMod have upgraded from Gingerbread to the CM10x. Those Froyo ROMs seem to be really "clean" to be overwritten, therefore my idea that it could help.
From people who upgraded to the CM from those Froyo ROMs and SpeedMod kernel nobody had bugs. I've only got so far one single time info that Trebuchet was bit laggy, but installing Apex launcher has solved that. On my i9000 Trebuchet is rock stable and fast, on my p5110 Tab I had to replace it with Apex, which indeed has worked perfectly well since the first second.

What may help also is describing the kinds of wifi problems you have. Most of the time its fixed by flashing a different kernel.

Which is the most stable ICS rom for note?

I hope the s pen, video and Mass Storage is work.
Thank you so much!
I used the romow pics from but that kept screwing with my root and texting didn't work. I flashed the fix and then my home button didn't work. I think if you can live with having to flash a recovery everytime you want to flash a from and can deal with using a 3rd party texting app it should be fine.

Try Midnote Rom ICS
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1511841
I earlier used it was very happy but due to some reason i have to shift back to GB rom. But this is definitely the most stable even more stable than the rocket rom ICS.
Hit thanks if you think i have helped you in anyway
Cheers !
Midnote 2.0 is amazing. I have been using it for two days now without any issues!
Also on Midnote. Tried the others and Midnote is definitaly the best.

I've tried just about all of them - and from reading other people's posts - it seems different ROMs suit different Notes. Really it is a matter of trying them and testing them for a few days.
Be warned - there are some posts that praise ROMs after only using them for a few hours! You really need to use for a few days and after a few battery cycles.
Personally - I recommend them all!! I've never found one that has totally been slow or laggy. I have never Undervolted or Overvolted - and really think you should just use each ROM with it's recommended settings and see how you go!
ROCKET 1.5
Im on ROCKET 1.5 for cuple of weeks now and despite random freezes for 15 seconds once or twice a day and that some times the caller id is not shown its avery stable rom. its my daly rom.
sorry for my english.

Did you find any bug on this rom?
Trust me, the most stable one is that one which still doesnt exist. Leaked ROM sucks, gotta wait official ICS release for great roms
Sent from my Galaxy Note with DarkyROM 3.3
it's asking for the most stable one, not a rom that you expect to perform perfectly.
by this, it is assumed that the leak is unstable, and is asking for a build that is less likely for problems to occur.
based on the existing ICS roms, i vote for midnote too.
ROMOW is pretty good, I had problems with midnote

honestly, if u tried any other ics rom, you would not go back to rocket rom.. too much hassle, too buggy, easily lose root with no way of going back

HDMI out works great on Criskelo beta4. I think it is a very stable rom. I go days without a reboot and I definitely push my note....I have found it easily as stable as any gingerbread rom. I have tried nearly all the ICS roms and I like it the best.
MidNote since day one....definitely ...
Almost a month.....
Like it...never go back to GB again

Rocket ROM v22 isn't an ICS ROM!
There is an Rocket ROM open beta ICS ROM, which is what I currently have on my phone. It isn't perfect (handful of reboots) but is good enough to serve as a daily driver.

I been using rocket ics rom since yesterday and i think it's bug free except for the video recording function which i don't use frequently. I had to flash several times till i have no fc. Flashing is a bit tricky but if u manage to do that properly it works flawless. You can find it here.
I tried imilka ics v5 and Jamied81's deodexed rooted ics version. team rocket ics 1.5 beta is the most stable one so far

[Q] What ROM for ICS / i9000?

Hi,
which ROM can you recommend? I'm on DarkyRom 10.4.2 and want to change to ICS.
Is there any ROM contains tun.ko module for using openvpn or anyconnect? I can't find any information about this.
Hey,
There are so many ICS roms you can try from, we've really got great developers for our device.
My current favorite is ICS333:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1618757
It's really stable and everything works!! There's even a guide to install it on the general section.. Here it is:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1637966
tun modules are supported by the kernel. ICS333 comes with semaphore kernel by default, which supports tun modules.. You could check and ask more on the ics semaphore thread in the development section..
For me there are only a few good ICS Roms.
The best ist Dark Knight 3.
But if you want a really stable and fast System, don`t take an ICS Rom. Take a jvt, jvr or jvz custom rom. My favorite is Tornado.
Thanks for you answer.
I've looked at many ROMS but the decision is difficult. My favorite after reading the different thread is SLIM ICS. But I'll now have a look at ICS333.
Should I use nandroid to make a backup before trying any ROM?

Hey, try the roms you like and choose the one you like the most!
Yeah, making a nandroid backup would be a good idea. Although don't restore your GB Titanium backup on ICS, it will create issues.

Try ICS out. I tested several ICS Roms but for me ICS on Galaxy1 is only to see, what is ICS.
I`m back to GB with Galaxy1, Galaxy Note and Iconia A500.

What are your reasons to go back? Was it not stable enough, or battery drain?
For now the CM9 nighltlies are working fine for me no issue.the battery is also fine runs for around 12-15 hours moderate to high use with semaphore kernel 1.1.1s.i tried a DOCMaster's rom also it also great...SLIM ICS is also good but if you are new to flashing you will have some difficulties in it since the dpi is 182 in it and some market apps wont be compatible.Onecosmic was great but since there is no new development i wont recommend it.For now CM9 with Semaphore kernel.Waiting for Gamerzrom with ICS

Exactly what i tought about ICS, until i gave TWICS a try.
I'm on TWICS 2.5, its fast, Battery fine (like Stock JVT) , no FCs., no Lags (after switching from TW4 to Apex launcher).
I use my phone mostly for calls,SMS and a little Tapatalk, no Facebook.
Don't get Faceunlock working, maybe a Face problem *g*, i don't care.
Thats my experience, other user reports some problems with Battery life, check the TWICS-Thread.

Hi!
With ALL ICS Roms on all devices i got a worse Benchscore on QS, Antutu, CF Bench and Vellamo. The "feeling" is even slower too. ALL Roms are buggy. Nice to see what is ICS and nice for flashaholics like me, but nothing for stable daily use. DK 3 is ok- no battery drain- but bugs too. The DK 4 and 5 is poor and DK 5.5 ok but slower than 3 and GB.

You seriously have no idea what you're talking about.
ICS is perfectly suitable for daily use on your phone. Not only is it smoother than GB, it looks better. And there aren't really any bugs. None that you'll see with normal use. It's perfectly stable.
Pick a ROM, any ROM. SlimICS is great; Dark Knight seems popular; CM9 and AOKP work wonders. Take your pick and never look back to the past that was Gingerbread.
I think CM9 is the best. I definitely recommend ICS as it has hardware acceleration and is sooo fast!
There's nothing like ICS isn't stable.. There are loads of roms to choose from.. I'm on ICS 333 for a week now and i haven't faced any bugs, lag or fc..
Everyone has their own views.. I think the best option is to try it out on your own n make your choice.. If you like ICS, great! If not, you can always switch back using a nandroid backup..
Enjoy!!

Doesn't matter, just flash Semaphore. It does. And it's one of the top ICS kernels.
The original release of Samsung Galaxy S [GT-I9000] has come a long way and still powerful enough to accommodate the latest Android release - Ice Cream Sandwich 4.0.x.
Read my article here:
https://www.fixmystuff.in/FMS_Forum...dwich-4-0-x-for-samsung-galaxy-s-gt-i9000.83/
Sorry, but not my view to ICS.
Since today I got the official german ICS for Galaxy Note and now i know, WHY there is no really good ICS Custom Rom for any device!
ICS is the future? LOL
Only on 5 percent of android devices, months later as planned and in a few month jellybean release.
I suggest Elite GTi9000_IMM76K_RC_1.2

Looking for a stable rom for my 70 year old Father

Hello I am looking for a Rom that will not freeze up. A stable and fast Rom and Kernel combo. My father is 70 and when it freezes up on him you can imagine the distress and 20 phone calls i receive from him. Please can someone advice on the most stable rom there is on xda for the i9000. I am more concerned about stability than speed. Altho a bit of both would be nice. Even if I could have one with the latest firmware and still be stable would be a bonus. But i do understand the limits with the hardware and porting issues.
Thank you for any help you can give me.
Edit: This post needs moving to Q&A sorry to the forum admins.
none, use stock untouched firmware

semaphore kernel one of the best kernel for sgs, and im using it as u can see in my sign. but because its for your father i prefer to stay with stock, or you can use semaphore its v.stable but don't use live oc because its phone independent and may cause soft reboot
I installed it and wow its fast. Also how nice is CM10. I slapped gapps on top to cos he uses gmail play etc. I can't believe I have never bothered with AOSP Roms before. It's going on my i9300 tonight. Stunning! Thanks again for your help.

There is no one favorite, alot of folk either prefer CM10.x or ICS,
ICS roms, have (or at least should have) everything working, technically, like wifi, bluetooth, gps, HDMI, etc.
CM10 + roms dont have some working items, (and probably never will) - like HDMI
different roms do run differently for everyone. IMO the latest 10.2 rom from Tonyp is amazingly smooth, but with the current CM10 bugs, and falky GPS for now.
here is some of the bugs and fixes that Tonyp sorted out for 10.1 (hes working on them for 10.2) ** so dont bother him about any of them ^.^ **
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=41068286&postcount=2
You best bet is to try a few of the recommended roms, and see what you think best works for you.

Try install P.A.C-Man 4.3.0 (JB4.3) wiht the last Kowalsky kernel is fast and stable for me. P.A.C-Man combine best features of CM10.2, Aokp and PA. You can download P.A.C-Man at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2148394 and Kowalsky kernel at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2097788.
As someone stated before, the stock based roms have less bugs and the CM based rom are more experimental. Anyway, you can also overclock your rom. Don't forget to install a 32m ramhack (check google).

[Q] ROM with NO random reboots? Stable?

Hi,
Can someone please recommend a stable ROM for the I8190N? It needs to be light, customisable, stable and preferably 4.2.2 or above....
I would really appreciate it if replies address the following:
Please only suggest a ROM if you have had random reboots on another ROM, then flashed a ROM and the random reboots stop....
Already flashed and have had issues with:
CyanogenMod 11.0 (maclaw and AOKP)
CyanogenMod 10.2 (maclaw and OliverG)
Light by somin
Chameleon OS 0.8
Anything "golden"
A deodexed stock ROM and custom kernel would be fine.....
Thanks!!

I meant to say in my OP that Dmodv6 was excellent - started flashing others because I'm a serial flasher (have four android devices) and wanted a newer android version.... if you kitkat Dmod, I'll consider you a living god!!
I've got stock AMJ2 from sammobile and plan to deodex, root and de-bloat.
The stock rooted XXAMJ3 - isn't for the 8190N - would I expect issues if i flashed it? Ignore me, i know it would NOT be a good idea!

stock rom is the best.

if you flash somin ROM, search baseband xxam... and kernel xxam... on the forum and flash it.
Maclaw's cm10.2 no longer suffers from random reboots and is completely stable (in my experience anyway).

Well, that depends on which governor you used and how many apps which sync every minute you had.
Luckily on custom roms you can change the governor.
You can change the behaviour or disable background processes as well. (I recommend the application ''Greenify'' for that).
If I didn't convince you now I'm afraid I have to tell you that there are no stable custom roms except stock based..
