Hi guys, I have a old Galaxy Tab GT-P1000N and I was thinking in using it for some smaller apps that help´s me on my work.
As I don't use it for a long time, I would like to know what is the best option now for it, so I can get the best performance of this old tab.
Should I stay on stock home? If yes, what firmware version?
Or should I install some ROM which is better and faster than stock one? If yes, what rom and where I can find it and how to install it?
Thx!
No one?

Too old for development... lastest "CM nightly" works quite well. But the hardware is obsolete, so do not expect speed of light at all unfortunately

Hey, I'm very new to android, all this rooting, custom roms etc. Anyways. I installed this ROM. (FROYO_2.2.1_Final_Android_Stock). And, I thought that Froyo 2.2.1 has Flash 10.1 by default, but it didn't, so I thought, hmm, I'll get it from market. But, it's not in the market. Could anyone of you help? I found an .apk, but when I installed it, it kept crashing my browser. Also, a question: Is the ROM I have the best one? In terms of speed, compatibility and app support? Or are there better ones?
EDIT: I pretty much need the Flash player only for watching streams - Livestream, UStream, JustinTV, Own3d.tv, ESL TV.

you can't get a stock froyo ROM with 10.1 as far as I know, however, ther chocolatefroyo ROM does have 10.1 running, but it has a camera bug which stops that from working. For now, you will have to choose between camera and flash.

There is no 'best' ROM, but it definitely isnt the stock one... I am running FroydVillain and I love it
The full Flash 10.1 is not possible on the Hero, the nearest you can get is Flash Lite which is only part of Sense ROMs. I'm not sure what its limitations are but you're best to just take a stable Sense ROM and find out, then see if it suits your needs.

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.

G'day all,
I recently purchased my first Samsung phone (the Note, N7000). I got root access so I could use some of my favourite programs like setCPU, titanium etc and have been pretty happy with the phone since.
I was looking at changing out the Kernel or changing over the ROM however I don't know enough about the phone yet to make a good judgement call on this. On my old phone (X10i) it was necessary as the stock options were crap however this phone seems to be much better off.
I would just like to know what other people are using in terms of Kernels and ROMs and why in order to help me make a decision as to what I'll do.
Cheers,
Grady

Hi,
First post in here (XDA). I've been reading this great forum just about a week and i have to say, this is the best forum for Android users.
I'm coming from iOS and Galaxy Note is my first Android phone. I've been using Note about week now and i'm loving this thing! I think that there is no going back to iOS. Galaxy Note works that well and i really like the way i can customize this thing.
I have stock XXLC1 ROM rooted + CWM and Speedmod K2-11 Kernel. I think that my Note is now super fast after i flashed speedmod.
I also downloaded SetCPU from Play store, but i'm little confused that will it run backround after i make a widget of it on my homescreen? The "manual" says that i have to ignore SetCPU in Task manager, but i don't know how. Can you guys give me little help how to set SetCPU proberly?
Thanks!

SpeedMod is OK, any LP kernel is not.
LP are ICS kernels which cannot be applied to a GB Rom.

Thanks mate!
I'm currently using Cyanogenmod 11 on my Samsung Galaxy S Plus, and I want the full Samsung experience, like on the stock Gingerbread ROM.
I've looked everywhere for one, but there doesn't seem to be any such ROM that meets my requirements.
Ideally, I would like a ROM to have the stock Samsung features (TouchWiz, etc), but be on Android 4.0 or later (for the latest apps to work).
Have I missed such a ROM, or am I stuck with applying customisation packs that mostly don't work?

This'll work for the S Plus also?
They're pretty similar in hardware, so I see why not, unless something is CPU-specific there.
