What is the reason? I'm really curious about that.
We have one. Check here for a list of all roms. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=887525
The only ones I found were Froyo with Gingerbread themes...
There are some what of Gingerbread ROM's ported from the I9000, with CM7, Far from a daily ROM. As well it is sort of difficult to actually flash, crazy kernel crap.
There is a team working on bringing 2.3 to the galaxy s. I haven't heard anything in about a month but they still had some issues to work out

CM7 for SGS
There were people working on porting gingerbread to the captivate but many of them are now involved in the project to bring CM7 to the i9000 and the captivate. The i9000 however seems to be the priority and it is not yet complete search for cmsgs on google to find out more
The problem is that we don't have the source to all of the proprietary Samsung bits, like hardware drivers, leaving some of the hardware either completely non-functional or malfunctioning. With the 2.2 roms, it's a lot easier because we have leaked 2.2 roms that were designed for our hardware, or the source code for other devices in the galaxy s line.
Though the Nexus S is similar to the Galaxy S line, there are a few hardware differences that make porting difficult. I've been following the CM7 twitter feed for the i9000 - it seems like they've figured most of the stuff out. The major hurdle was that the camera wasn't working, which it now is, and the remaining problems are all somewhat minor things - polling problem in the radio interface layer, wifi glitches.. Hopefully we'll see a proper build a lot sooner now that the camera has been sorted.
CM7 for captivate (stock gingerbread 2.3.3) is now working fine.

That's not entirely accurate...
At any rate, once i9000 gingerbread source is released there will be a bunch of them.

just falshed away from CM7 it is not all working
The main parts are working but many things still do not work for our cappys or the I9000 or the vibernt.
It is very useable if u dont use bluetooth, moible AP, Car docking, andmany other highly used featers.
It is fine for web surfing and Phone calls, and texting, and a few other minor things.
So for those of us that need the biger parts of the ROM to work it just isnt going to cut it.
I see there a few i9000 no CM7 2.3.2 roms also i have seen a vibernt 2.3.2 rom.
It comes down to no one has worked or completed work on 2.3.x to our cappys. besides the CM7 thats far from 100% ready for the masses.
I mean i can handle giveing up a few things but with a few custom 2.2 roms and a nice kernel i get benchmarks and many other scores just as high if not higher then CM7 2.3.3, and give up nothing.
So y flash and deal with a few reboots and force close prb i found with a few apps.
Btw yes i had the most current cm7 20110304.
i wish it worked a little better and i am sure it will it just takes time.
I figer this y work on that ROM when we have an i9000 2.3.2 rom unsure but i think it would be easier to port. then an non sammy rom.
But much many be learned there at CM7 helping in converting the sammy 2.3.2 to our cappys.
But i can say i am a bit unhappy that vibernt got the i9000 working on there ohones frist
Those are just my opions not tring to offend anyone.
I've been using CM7 with no problems
I've been using CM7 as a daily driver for a week now, with no issues. I love it actually! You can find clear instructions on how to install it here:

I would love to upgrade to gingerbread someday when they work the knicks out of it. I will wait til this phone gets old enough not to worry about abuse lol.

Agreed, I have been using Cyanogen and it's been reasonably stable, except for wifi sleep issues, a bit of bad battery life and when I pulled my battery and I had to rewipe.
But I have actually been very pleased with it, very snappy and I love all the customization!

The WiFi issue was fixed today, so we migth get an updated release today.
The one issue that made come back to a Samsung ROM is the camera. The picture quality is mediocre at best, and it takes too long to start. Its really unfortunate because otherwise the rom works way better than any other rom. Seriously, I just noticed today his ****ing ****ty the browser is in stock ROMS.

I looked through the threads and couldn't find the answer for this in mesmerize section. Pretty much I am wondering if I should be concerned about this or not.
Ever since I flashed from stock EC10 2.2 froyo to EC10 PnP and Jt's Voodoo kernel I have noticed that my 3g connection lags a little bit. I did the ADW trick and so forth but my issue is not really roaming or unable to make or receive calls. It is just that the 3G icon shows a d for disconnected until I start doing something web based then it will take a few secs the connect which makes certain things lag. Now this could just be me and I didn't realize it did this on stock as well. Just wanted to know if this is normal.
As far as the radio part. While reading through the forums I saw this may be related to the Radio. I could not find a flashable radio for this device as well as don't know if that would even be the fix. But when I go into the device info to see what radio version it is using it shows as unknown. Is that normal.
If I need to go back to stock and redo everything that's fine. But if possible would just like to know if I should or shouldn't be concerned. I included a Pic of the device info below.
Device is running
EC10 PnP v.4 with Acc batt and No Clock Mod
Voodoo Kernel by JT1134 4/11/11 Version.
The d does not mean disconnected it means dormant aka not in use.

OK so now I feel dumb.. I never even considered that. So what do you think about the unknown under radio. Ignore it?

Hello everyone!
I am from the Xperia X10 forum and I decided that I wanted to get the HTC Inspire and I love it!
I used the ace hack kit to root and s off and all that good stuff and I flashed to the latest AT&T Radio that was released last month as I am on the AT&T network.
My question is if this hasn't been answered a million times already:
What is the best ROM for battery life? I see that there are a lot of HTC Sense ROMS that are overclocked, I do not want mine overclocked, just all that bloatware crap AT&T put on the phone. I would prefer a nice sense rom that has amazing battery life and performance without the overclock.
What is the best custom Radio I should try out? I saw it varies from where you live but is the AT&T stock radio okay or crap? ( I am also concerned how difficult it is as I flashed the latest AT&T radio without using ENG S-OFF method with great success).
Just trying to make the transition from the Xperia to this phone is a little confusing and learning all this new material is a little tricky as the Inspire has been around for a few months now.
Thanks for your input!
Everything depends on many factors, every phone is different, every radio works better for certain areas, etc. You just have to try them and find out what works for you

I would recommend TB's Fusion ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1099202 It's Android 2.3.3 with Sense 2.1 and some features ported from Sense 3.0. Battery life has been great for me so far and never had any troubles with it. Fast and stable. What else do you need?
I've been running inspired ace 1.0.1 for quite awhile now. The dev moved to the infuse, so it's not longer supported, but it's such a solid ROM, it really doesn't need much supporting.
A lot of people moved over to seo's ROM, mentioned above, as it's quite similar.
I'm not sure I understand your concern about the radio thing, it seems you have already had success in flashing one via the best and safest method....the non eng s-Off method. Any of the radios listed in the inspire radio thread, in the dev section, are just as easy and safe, so take your pick and try them out. Just be diligent in checking your MD5's.
The OTA radio is solid and many people have had success on a variety of roms using it.
Personally, I've had better luck with the 04.11_M2 radio for the gingerbread ROM I'm running.

Wow quick response! Thanks guys!
I only show a little concern in terms of the radio flashing because I have been looking at different roms so far and they say you need to use the eng S-OFF method to flash a radio, which I don't feel comfortable doing, the safe method always implies when I root, etc, as the Xperia was unbrickable basically because of its locked bootloader.
and scott, for the radio you are using, are you in the united states?
another thing, is the ace 1.0.1 rom htc sense?

I'm running the factory OTA radio in the States and I've personal found it to be the best, in my opinion.
Also, yes, Inspired Ace is running Sense 2.1 - Click here for Inspired Ace
I personally don't like Sense so I stick with MIUI. The battery life has been fantastic on MIUI - even OC'd to 1.5ghz.

Are you looking at roms in the inspire dev section or the desire hd section? I ask because none of the inspire based roms that I've looked at endorse radio flashing by way of eng s-Off, as the non-eng s-off method is safer. Roms that originate from the actual desire hd section, may very well say that you need eng s-Off.
Keep in mind, some of the roms you see in the inspire thread are by developers who originate from the desire hd, I believe. They offer their ROM in our section because they work on our phones as well.
The desire hd radio thread, at least last I checked, definitely seems to indicate the need for eng s-Off.... All of the instructions in the op of that thread are eng s-Off based. The 'quickflash packages' in that thread I believe also specify the need for eng s-Off to use them. So it wouldn't surprise me if some desire hd-originated roms might say something about needing to have eng s-off.
(It seemed rather odd to me, that they still promote doing it this way even in light of the fact that you don't need eng s-Off to flash radios, but I may be missing something, I don't visit there very often.)
In any case, if you stick to the inspire only radio thread in our dev section, using the radio downloads available in that thread, you don't need to have eng s-Off to flash and test out those different radios. All known-working, and ready to flash without eng s-Off.
I don't have eng s-Off, and I've flashed 2 different radios, with no problems.
And yes, I'm in the US, Washington State, in fact.
All of the above observations about the desire hd stuff...are just that... Cursory observations... I may be off-the-mark a little, but just keep in mind there is info that's been intermingled between these two *almost* identical phones.
Really? Another "whats the best" thread???
Well...they say opinions are like ).(
I've tried almost every Rom/radio/kernel combination out there. And I have to say that CM7 nightlies is the best looking. The themes for them are sick....in a good way. But...I've had nothing but GPS problems with that ROM. If they ever get THAT fixed...and a few other bugs...I'll definitely be going back! Right now I'm on CoreDroid...which is based on sense 3.0. It's the second best I've tried thus far. I like the sense 3.0 live weather wallpapers...and CoreDroid is the only rom that seems to have a stable version of that.
So my vote is for CoreDroid until CM7 gets all of the GPS bugs worked out.
How does CoreDroid compare to LeeDroid? I read through all 82 pages of the LeeDroid thread and except for a few issues it seemed really good.
Is any Rom compatible with the ATT stock radio

I used to use leedroid 3.0.3 I loved it great battery life just all around good but when I started updating to the new versions it got slow and sluggish so I tried coredroid 6.8 I have to say I like it better. It has more customization that leedroid does. It is very snappy. Also has great battery life. Your best bet is to try them both. They both have great devs if there's a problem they will address it. Best of luck!

Are both of those based off 2.3? With sense 3.0?

Yes but on leedroid sense 3.0 is an add on. Coredroid is built into the Rom.

Hey I'm from the x10 too! I upgraded like 2weeks aago and I never look back! I'm currently using the gingerbeast rom with the ota att radio. Battery life isn't bad though not the best.
Also rooting the inspire is a bit more pain than the x10 huh? At least the bootloader is unlocked rather than a load of test kernals like in the case of the x10.
Hey Mister J I remember seeing you around back on the X10 forums haha! I feel you man I'm loving all the crazy options we have on here.
J, what rom are you using? I'm considering using the LeeDroid as I am not a big fan of the 3.0 Sense for some reason.
Battery life is a big deal along with full sense 2.1 like at&t rom had.
I'm turning into a ROM whore.
I'd like to say that some of the radio.img and RIL's have really made a difference but I've not been impressed with the radio updates. I'm in Phoenix and I can't say I've been surprised with the updates. The ROM's yeah I've liked some of them and others I've hated.
Learning about the different radio firmware and RIL has really helped me understand how everything was designed and what the different levels mean.
For me its battery and GPS. GPS fix north America really made the phone worth having.
So yeah, I wish I could decide to stick with one ROM. I'm just a rom whore.
Okay so since i bearly got the charge i saw a few roms, i love this phone! But i do dislike the battery life on this,
And i was just wondering if in the future there will be karnels or roms or tweaks to make the battery better.
I know it bearly came out,
but my question is. Will there be
Deep development with different roms and karnels in the future?

There may be in the future, although I don't think it'll reach huge numbers or variety like say the Thunderbolt or Incredible/Incredible2... There are now a few different kernels which may help with your battery life, as well as an awesome custom rom by Team Gummy for 2.2 froyo and 2.3 gingerbread
We can't foresee the future, but based on the development so far, and on other devices, I don't see why not.
Well dident the facinate get good roms and stuff?
And u know its weird because i have tried everyrom and karnel wit different setting. Undervolt i set about -120 on freaquencies.
idont know if am doing something wrong but still the same.
And well i hope the deva get hands on karnels for more tweaks otherwise id probly be switchin

Significant battery improvements., if there to be had will come from two things..
1. New radio firmware (the ep1q has this although some people have reported issue with pops and noise in the background)
2. AOSP....

And well ill try the new radio see how that works out.

I was playing around. Gotta have a sense of humor here. AOSP-Android Open Source Project. Pure Android. Stuff like CM7, MIUI, etc.
And for this phone, there are no AOSP roms... yet. We just got CM7 to boot, but it's still a long way from release.

i have no proof for what im saying just a thought.. but ide assume that vzw's lame data service that cuts out whenever it feels like it could def have something to do with our battery issues... if im on a wifi connection.. i can go 30-35 hours from a full charge with heavy use as to where on 3g i get like 15 at max.. and we wont even get started with 4g.. where i can watch it go down like 5% in 15 mins
Oh really? Wow thats a really good life.
Mine goes full 100%from 6 am to 12pm. (Lunch time) and i have 80% without using it -.- it gets annoying.
I even took dàta off and it still went down pretty quick
I can't seem to fathom what's up with this phone and some roms. during 90% of my ownership of this phone, it has been rebooting during phonecalls. I've tried many different roms. So far, the only ones to cure this annoying rebooting are
1) Official V21y (for now atleast)
2) Paranoid Android.
I'm not sure if it is just my phone or not, but dang, I wish this phone would've been built with a built more stability in mind! Even the latest cm7 nightly causes rebooting!
I'm begining to think my phone was just built subpar, and can't handle roms like other phones
Sorry for the rant, just got ticked off at its rebooting mid-call :good:
Well u dont have to flash Roms so just stick with stock. Ur phone wasn't built sub par, it was built to run stock so it isn't LGS fault. (Them not releasing drivers is their decision, doesn't make the phone bad, just bad for development purposes)
