Build number is 2.32.651.2. I've been eligible for an upgrade since 12/1, but want to know if I can root beforehand. And what would be the best ROM for it? Or, are there any new Sprint phones that will have Android 2.3 later on in the year?
Thanks.
you can root beforehand and if u do a different rom then u dont even need to use that update. if u are looking for a rom that is more stock based then try aosp or fresh but if u are looking for a more customizable rom use cynanogenmod. there is a gingerbread port out for the hero here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=864403

Most of these Roms are pretty stable for daily use, but if you are looking for a perfect Rom, don't bother! Beg SE as much as you want, you won't get from them! change phone!

Hello!
Im new to android story so please excuse my stupid questions.
I would like to install the barest version of gingerbread on my phone. Where to find it? Im not clear if stock mod is what i have on my phone now (original) or is it android without the preinstalled apps that i cant uninstall? I Would like the version without any preinstalled apps.
And since im meddling with my phone, what do you think is the best kernel to use with bare gingerbread?

Gingerbread is Android 2.3. The S Advance has Android 4.1.2 available for it (AKA Jellybean). Follow the above guide to upgrade to Jellybean, and if you want you can also install a custom kernel or ROM.
Stock ROM Gingerbread 2.3.6

Stock Rom is a System Rom which comes preinstalled in your particular android device when you buy it. Stock Rom is preinstalled by the manufacturer of that particular device such as Samsung, Nokia, Sony etc.
If you have Gingerbread 2.3.6 just do a factory reset and from Settings > Application Manager > force stop unwanted apps.
What you want is unclear in your post. What I could realize from your writing that you want a fresh Gingerbread to flash your device.
You can download official Gingerbread 2.3.6 from here. Choose OS version 2.3.6
where do u live? what is the official release for your device there?

Thank you for your replies people.
What I want is to install fresh gingerbread, but some kind of bare version, non samsungs version like i have now. Without preinstalled apps that i cant uninstall. Is that even possible?
What im asking is how is such bare version called and where to find it? and since im doing that i thought i could upgrade kernel but i m new to whole meddling with android thing so i thought i could ask which kernel is good to use with this version of gingerbread?
I live in croatia. There is no croatian version on the page above, besides, those are all samsung versions, like the original on my phone, right?
By bare version, I'm guessing you mean like stock android version like the nexus have. Unfortunately for this device, we don't have the stock android firmware. For GB, even the custom roms you found here is based on stock samsung firmware. So, there will be some samsung apps preinstalled in the custom rom.
If you upgrade to Jellybean 4.1.2, you can try the latest CM 10.1 nightlies (although it is not recommended for newbies, as it is still test builds but has gotten to a pretty stable version). Cyanogen (CM) roms are built from source and it is very similar to stock android interface.

Thanks. Thats what i wanted to know.
I ended up on this forum becouse i wanted to install new cyanogen, but after some reading here it seems that GB is still better option in terms of battery and performance. So i concluded that best bet would be gingerbread without the bloatware. Maybe ill try some GB based rom.
Anyway, i hope this information will be useful to someone else also. Or delete the thread if thats the practice on this forum.
One last question. Im pretty sure i know the answer but better be safe. If I root my phone, i will be able to unistall all the apps that were preinstalled that i cant uninstall now?

Yes, you can. You're granted with superuser access by rooting your phone. So you will be able to remove any app and play with your device anyway you want. :good:
Rooting Gingerbread is a bit tricky for newbies. Follow the guide in the following link

Hi guys! I am right now stuck at miui rom 5 and wonder what is a good custom rom instead? I don't know about the s-on s-off thingy right now but I believe I have the "bad" thing that is not good for custom.
What would be the easiest rom to jump over to? I am planning on selling the phone later so I guess something that looks more like stock and maybe have updates etc?

XDA policies don't let anyone to suggest you a custom rom
there are many depend on your choice
Sense based
GPE based
Cynogenmod based
Kitkat or Lollipop
Heavily customized or Light mod
Sense 7 ported rom also available
I will msg you some
I currently have my xperia Z running paranoid android on kitkat! Im looking to update to some of the newer lollipop roms, but from what i can gather, i need to use flashtool to flash stock firmware over my existing then start over, but i cannot find any lollipop firmware for the united kingdom, could somebody please assist me and tell me if what i plan to do would work?
As far as I know, you dont need flash stock rom. If you have recovery, just do FULL wipe, and flash any pre-rooted ROM(People tried jump from 4.4 to 5.1.1 just do full wipe, but of course before that do full backup :] )
Im currently use 5.1.1 PureX( http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z/development/rom-purex-z-v1-0-t3212535 ) And as fan of 4.3 and hater of 5.0.2 I can say that forn now its work smooth and without too much problems
from 4.3 to 5.1.1
