Help with roms.. PLZ>.

So should i get a rom with radio or with out?
or even better yet.. what is the radio for? is that push to talk? cause i dont use push to talk.
also, where can i get games for my kaiser for free?

Looks like you didn't read the WIKI!!!
Do not start flashing a ROM without reading the WIKI!
You have to know what you are doing when you flash a ROM.
I suggest you to start here!

i don't want to be rude so i will help u out:
rom in simple turns contains ur phones os.
radio is only important if u want to use ur phone to make calls ..(u will still be able to call but won't hear squat).
read the wiki .. search the forum .. don't be lazy .. do ur homework ..
i stand for world peace

Be aware that some of this is specific to the HTC Dream and not HTC Magic / Sapphire

That's the reason why! We need specific tutorials for MAGIC.
For example I'd liek to try some coocked ROMS on my Voda Magic.
But I need to do first a backup of my original ROM so i can revert back to the factory ROM.
But I'm a little confused about it and a tutorial would help me much!
Just waiting....

Tutorials!
I would like to see some of these tutorials too!
I have recently changed ova from wm6 and used to flash my old phone all the time!
I want to see some tutorials specific to the magic and sum roms specific to the magic.
Or is the hardware similar enough to use the g1 roms?? I have read you can, but i would have thought the magic would have some hardware that the g1 doesnt??
I dont wanna miss out any features!
Can this thread be stickied! plz op!

I would also like to have tut. specific for Magic rooting too.

great idea
+1 for tut.

thanks for the link daldroid. this has really helped an android n00b like me
it would be nice to know what on the tutorial page works for the magic. HardSPL obviously won't, but does nandroid if you have root ?
I know the answers are littered around this forum but would be nice to have a central source. ho humm - maybe I will in a few weeks if my kids leave me alone for 5 mins ........

Which is FASTEST rom?

Good day,
I have Kaiser over 20 months and don't want spend hard money for new faster device.
So...which english rom is most "naked" and fastest?
Don't matter if WM 6.1 or 6.5
Thanks in advance for any reply.

No fastest ROM, No best ROM, just a user preference.....
Flash Flash Flash Flash....
Find your personal preference then....
Flash Flash Flash Flash....
Till you find better.....

[FAQ][READ THIS] POLL IS UPDATED! come and vote again ;)

Hi all! i wanted to start a FAQ thread because im sick of seeing/reading threads like "what is best custom ROM? please help", "need OC help, please help!" and other very useless threads. i come acrcoss these kind of threads almost every day :/ thats why i want to make this thread to minimize the amount of useless threads
red = question color
green = answer color
@please make this thread sticky so it will always remain at the top
FAQ
1.) what ROM is best/stable/battery saver/fastest?
this is the MOST asked question of all time and short answer is: test every available ROM! everybody has their opinion and it is just stupid to make this kind of thread because most likely it is going to end up like this:
user24 says: InDroid is the best use that!
user25 says: lestatious is the best use that!
user26 says: no use kyrillos, its the best!
so DONT post threads like that!
2.) best filesystems to use?
most of the people say its:
stl6 ext4
stl7 ext4
stl8 ext2
3.) what is the best stock ROM?
almost everybody recommends JPM
4.) is there going to be official 2.3?
most likely NO!
5.) im from another SG forum and id like to flash SG3 ROM, can i do it? we have very similar specs
you can do it but it wont work!
6.) OMG, help me, kies wont recognize my phone and i cant revert back to official firmware!
Kies wont recognize your phone if its rooted, if you have flashed a custom ROM or if you have flashed unofficial samsung ROM!, so you need to find out what is the official firmware in your country then find that firmware on www.samfirmware.com and flash it via odin
7.) is it dangerous to flash a custom ROM?
Most likely no but remember you are flashing on your own and the risks are still there no matter what
8.) How to root android 2.2 FROYO?
use super1clickRoot, z4root wont work on 2.2!
9.) how do i know if my phone is hard bricked?
you CANT enter recovery, download (using 3 button (power+vol down+home button)) or boot the phone
10.) my phone CAN enter download mode but cant boot, is it soft brick?
yes it is! just flash another ROM and everything should be ok
ill add more FAQ´s later but now i got other things to do oh and also you can suggest different kind of questions and answers you want me to add
also tell me what you think of this thread

ill add links here
- www.samfirmware.com/WEBPROTECT-i5800.htm for official and un official firmwares
- http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_i5800_galaxy_3-3395.php full SG3 specs

then i reply to that thread with CAPS on and say: !READ FAQ BEFORE POSTING! and if they are blind and cant read my text ill PM mod to delete it

4.) is there going to be official 2.3?
most likely NO!
samsung customer service germany told me yes lol
but is still to be confirmed by other users ^^
anyway I don't understand why people get so mad because of such threads, if you hate them, just ignore them. no one forces you to read or even answer
I don't understand why people can't just use the search option as well. as they would geht their answer faster.
but hey, you're on the internet, not everyone's as smart as you. there are stupid users everywhere

when i get confirmation that we will have 2.3 i will update it but now its most likely a no also im not mad im just stunned because there are mny threads like this and that but nobody even cares to search for them and then they spam the forum... this SHOULD decrease haree's job on this forum, he has many, many other forums that he is in charge and with this thread i hope that his job will become easier and the forums will be cleaner
and because there are some lazy guys who cant/wont use the search tool this will most likely answer thse answers

The search tool is useless, if you get even a work wrong you have to wait 30secs and search again which is kinda pretty lame. So this thread is useful, thanks jazux.

true but now i have created poll (will make it public in a minute ) and it has 29 ROMs and 29 options... i looked trough every page on dev section and listed every ROM that is not closed/dead and with dl link available

not all new roms last long you know..
I'm sure after the rom tutorial was out many new roms came up but lasted for less time..(no specific names please!)
So it wont matter much..
But if a new rom was really awesome and worth the entry in the poll haree could add a option(maybe) or could restart the poll with new option(definitely, this can be done by a mod)
Edit: Nice,jazux you looked for 29! Roms.

For new bees!!!!!!!(UPDATE-MIUI video for version 8)

Just looking at the general section nd found it messy..With most of them useless or repeated..
I created this thread for new members....
1.People who r new nd need some basic information.
2.People who want to know about firmware...root....miui....cm7....ics....cm9...how to flash....what is pit file....any question u feel shy to ask...
Our great developers will surely answer them..
I m uploading some videos regarding miui installation nd my 1 week experience...
1.Installation(http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xK3k6BKbwEI
2.MIUI Version 8....
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hj0eeUK-3lQ&context=C37ad196ADOEgsToPDskIt7m2lvwppvKUkJGf2Ycw3

i never thought even "bees" would be capable of using a phone or even be a part of a "family".
its not "new bees" mate. its "newbies". and the fact newbies dont read before posting, its very unlikely they will come here cause they dont read!

ayush95gupta said:

This thread is for our new members......they r also part of our i9003 family...
Any question ask here...dnt shy.......ask any question...i will try my best to answer them..
eg-what is firmware;what is root;what is miui;what is cm7;how to update;what is overlocking????these type of any question.......our developers will surely answer........

Firstly does the OP of the ROM said that he apply the sd swap?
I also seen your conversation with longfeng on the icebolt rom thread..and he is right on the changing of vold.fstab..
If you dont now how to edit the file its better to ask the maker of the cROM to upload the origunal vold.fstab.

completely agree with u. Even its more surprising is that when someone scold to such noobs for creating un-necessary threads then instead of supporting that senior member other people start blaming to that senior member that he is doing bossing over there. We people must understand that if we keep some strict decipline here then only noobs with behave properly. We cant completely rely on our mods.

Remember the days when xxkph custom roms were out......we were having a clean forum....then it got separated........now development section is clean but general section is totally populated....this is called urbanisation ;->

Hey guys, a new member here, but have been lurking in this board for a few months now.
I agree that it is really very annoying to see the same questions over and over again, but then, it is also so hard, with the amount of pages of often offtopic posts (replying to conversations not related to the main topic)/double posts. If there were some sort of chatbox here, then I guess the amount of spam posts might be redirected to the CB.
Also, I do hope I can be a good member here in the forums. I'm really trying to modify and customize my own ROM, but I guess I'll have to observe and learn more every now and then.
