I am seeking some answers about the compatibility of s3 mini rom compatibility with my galaxy axiom. as I have come to understand it, the mini and axiom are very similar and both run jb 4.1.2. my issue with the axiom is I have yet to find anybody who has made any roms specifically for the axiom. I have xposed installed and have several modules running as well as swapped internal and external sd cards. but honestly I hate a lot about this stock rom and I feel very held back as far as customization goes. so does anybody, or has anybody tried a s3 mini rom on an axiom or know if it will work. I am willing to risk my device to explore this possibility but some guidance would be greatly appreciated

The only thing you're risking is turn your phone in a brick, installing a s3 mini rom on your phone. Read & learn more & search/wait till any dev make roms for axiom. You can also cook your own roms. Have fun

Hi everyone!
I've been an android user since the G1 and have had many different devices since then(htc magic, sony ericsson xperia x10, lg eve-yuck, htc desire, etc) and I have now just jumped on board with the Galaxy Tab!!!
I'm totally stoked and very happy to be joining everyone here in samsung tablet land, and I just wanted a litttle helping hand to speed things up for me a bit
So basically, I have a GSM tab thru rogers that I have just rooted and installed clockworkmod recovery on. I decided to flash the MoDaCo custom rom on and play around for a bit with no problem. What I need some help with tho, is maybe a brief explaining of the differences between the very few roms available right now for our tabs.. overcome v1.2.3, MoDaCo, etc.
I know for example, when dealing with my desire, there are a bunch of roms all catering to diff needs/wants/etc and they have diff looks and features not to mention diff versions of android-2.1/2.2/2.3
Whats the deal with the galaxy tab? Any help is much appreciated. Opinions are all welcome.
(if 3.0 honeycomb was available I wouldn't be asking this right now lol)
THANKS EVERYONE AND I LOOK FORWARD TO KEEPING UP WITH THE TAB SCENE ALONG WITH YOU ALL!!!!!!
Hi!
i needed some help from you.As you said u have installed the clockworkmod recovery.I have been trying to do that from the past 2 days but im not able to.i have unrooted my samsung tab, and i have checked if the bootloader is locked and it is not.and i have installed the Rom Manager.But when i try to click "FLASH CLOCKWORKMOD RECOVERY" i get and error " error while downloading from server.Please make sure that you have a stable internet connection, and that your SD card is inserted and has free space!" Can you please help me with this?
Hey, sorry for the late reply..
I had a few problems starting out with rom manager as well.. You have probably figured it out already, but I would grab the overcome rom that has cwm attached already.. Super easy. Once you get it installed you can easily use rom manager to boot into cwm whenever you like..

morning (or evening depending on where you are!)
so my much beloved x10 mini pro died on me recently and ive taken to using my old m8800 at the moment. My lovely wife has told me she is getting me the galaxy mini for christmas (not too far away).
so just to fill you in im aware of how to root an android phone (superoneclick normally does the trick) and changed the rom on my mini pro several times. basically what im looking for is an opinion (advice if you will) on the best rom or roms for the galaxy mini. my intention is to change what will be the current stock 2.2 for something in a 2.3!!
any suggestions would be great as would any pitfalls to watch out for with what im sure will be a large amount of roms that are available.
many thanks
Jim
NOTE: SuperOneClick works only on 2.2. For 2.3 Upd_1.zip trick should work. You can find all custom ROMs in Development section of Mini. And I'm not sure which is the best ROM available. And as you are going for 2.3 you can find stock ROMs in sammobile.com
Good luck!
the galaxy mini i will be getting is running on android 2.2 so superonclick should be ok for the initial rooting of the phone, i understand that there may be a firmware upgrade to android 2.3.3 available through samsungs keis software but ill see what is around before i get the phone so i know what my choices are.
thanks for the response
No point in rooting froyo cuz ultimately u'll endup using cm7 most probably...so as soon as u get ur phone, update it to 2.3.4 via kies or Odin method...flash cwm and flash cm7.
Done deal.
Note: what I said here is not period.

You'll lose the root access (which is done in 2.2) when you upgrade to Android 2.3, just in case for info.

ROM Manager is not supported for Galaxy Mini. Those who had installed probably had screwed their phones. So stay away from it.
Well, i use srock 2.3.4... works fine. But, tried custom, and it slowed my phone down big time...

Cwm from ROM manager doesn't brick now.
But it works perfectly for some but not for others.

Yes, agreed with you. I think we need to manually override the installation of CLock Work Mod recovery to make Rom Manager Working after flashing latest CWM recovery manually using Odin.

i think you should try ParanoidAndroid (been using it from the day it came out, love it and only a couple of very little bugs).
Another one is Asylum ICS. I haven't tried it but people say its very very good. Give them a shot and see what works for you.
Stock, like always, is crap.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using XDA
Okay!
what about the battery life ?
i noticed that deep sleep doesn't work in my note.
is it jst with me or is it a firmware problem?
The current "stock" ics roms by Samsung are having kernels with the "brick bug" which are therefore unsafe.The best option is to use the 4.0 Roms which are based on CM9,franco kernels like Paranoid Android,MIUI,Asylum ICS and a few others.For more info read the warning posted by the mods in the development section.
Battery life is good in most of the rooms....as they are using the same base...and kernel is left to you to decide which you want...goku kernel is good right now...
thanks guys!
used ParanoidAndroid!
loved it, but didn't satisfy my needs, i bought NOTE and man it doesn't have any Note apps
so im gonna flash KingDroid in a while, any comments abt that?
p.s. anybody knows where i can get the samsung apps like
social hub
s memo

Hello All,
I"m having a Galaxy GT-I9000, which was originally from Europe. The last update I got from samsung is 2.3.3 (GINGERBREAD.XWJVH). I dont think samsung will publish any updates for this model anymore.
I would like to go with the custom ROM, I know It's not so easy to as I say.
Is there any easy way to decide and install it ASAP. Plz guide me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks in advance

Actually this question was asked countless times already. I'm not trying to be smart or something like that but there are several similar threads already.
Try to look within this General Forum and in the Question & Answer Forum and you will surely get an answer.
Install slimbean. if unsatisfied try flashing others.

Just search a bit... http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=665.
Make a clean install of ICS333 2.0.1 ROM. The most stable and memory friendly ROM so far (ever). It's very fast also.
The JB roms are on par - try SlimBean or CM10 (but flash Semaphore 2.6.0 kernel on CM10). Don't try JB 4.2 - tt's very new . Wait 1-2 months for good releases.
without creating a new thread, but along the lines of this subject already, can I ask, if there are any custom rom's that include the official samsung email application? I know that's specific, but its for some testing..A port from another samsung device maybe,,,tia
I am very happy with Slim Bean. It is "slim", and very battery efficient. I could use a full battery charge on 3.5 days, with mail, sms and few phone calls.
Just be careful with the last version, 3.0, that has a battery drain problem. I can only get 2 days from a load.
I used RemICS 1.3.1. very good, but lags at times.

Hi, I want to root my S3 mini, above model, running Android 4.1.2. I'd love to be free of the huge amount of bloatware that came with the phone so I can optimise its functionality.
However, I previously tried to root my Samsung Galaxy Y and ended up bricking the phone in spite of various attempts.
The endless threads going off in different directions are not particularly helpful either.
Also, if I do manage to root the phone, how can I be sure that there won't be conflicts with Samsung firmware updates etc.
I'm trying to make the process as smooth as possible. I know people on here give their time freely and appreciate that but losing half a day just trying to get a bricked phone back to its original state is not much fun.
Hey bro while upgrading any samsung device it is told that if the device is rooted i may cause problems.. So i think the mistake you make is upgrading your phone after rooting which eventually leads you bricking your device....

you won't get any samsung updates after rooting so there won't be any conflicts.
maybe these videos will help you how to root and install a custom rom.
I'm using the I8190 and I can asure you, once you have found a ROM that fits your needs, you won't miss Samsung updates. You can simply flash the new ROM, or you can wait and have a look if there are problems reported, then you stay on the firmware.
Downgrade? No problem.
Wanna change Rom? No problem.
Once you got for root and maybe even an upgraded ROM you won't miss a thing
OK, how do I know what mod is the best given my spec?
You mean which ROM?
Well, you can try a few and see which one fits your needs best, simply search the forum
I was referring to the CyanogenMod 10.2 mentioned in the video posted.

I personally prefer CM 11, for me its quite stable and got a wide variety of features :good:
Other than the cynogenmod by maclaw, stay tuned in for the android L release (which maclaw also will build yay).
OK, can you give me a link for the latest most stable CyanogenMod/Rom? Thanks.
