REMIXES
Barebones Remix V3.0: http://www.multiupload.com/G3RNGFW2S0
The barebones remix was an idea we came up with for those like me, who instantly remove a bunch of apps included in a ROM right after flashing it. This version includes the same features as the original, just has most of the non-necessary apps. Pretty much anything that can be downloaded from the market is removed, here's a removed apps list from tylermaciaszek (Thanks!)

- Wipe Data/Factory Reset
- Wipe Cache Partition
(Optional but recommended to prevent any minor issues)-Wipe Dalvik Cache from advanced menu in CWM
*Now before you Flash, Only if you are on the orange CWM, (Not RED voodoo CWM from Bali) if on red CWM ignore the mounts/unmount part*
MAKE SURE YOUR MOUNTS LOOK LIKE THIS: (Go to mounts and storage from CWM recovery)
UNMOUNT CACHE
MOUNT DATA
MOUNT SDCARD
UNMOUNT SYSTEM - this is the ONLY mount you pay mind to, not Sdcard or anything else
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
- Now its safe to Flash the .zip
(AGAIN IGNORE UNLESS IF YOU ARE ON A RED VOODOO RECOVERY) after you flash, go back to mounts and storage and make sure your mounts look like this
UNMOUNT CACHE
MOUNT DATA
UNMOUNT SDCARD
UNMOUNT SYSTEM
(Optional but recommended)-Wipe Cache then Wipe Dalvik Cache from advanced menu in CWM before Rebooting.
(To First Time installers, System Needs to be set to Unmount, though it would really be mounted. If you do Not do this you will have a softbrick and will have to ODIN to stock and start all over ....) Once you have Flashed a Custom ROM or Bali 2.2 Kernel you dont have to worry about mounts
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
AFTER THE ROM BOOTS, i Recommend letting it sit for about 5 mins without use so cache and stuff builds back up, then log into google from gmail/market or someway, let google sync for 5 mins then reboot again. then you will have your Sidekick 4G in the best state its ever been

i don't have any TW problems! I'm actually a huge fan of it now because of this rom
also is anyone else having a problem deleting pictures i delete but they stay there until the reboot
I also had that problem with pictures not deleting, I'll have teddy look into that the next time I talk to him. As far as the TW launcher goes, I don't use it, but it's possible that it still has some bugs, it was ported by Fr4gg0r and is a fairly recent release if I remember correctly.
Gallery issue has been added to the issues list.
I wanted to say great work on the ROM you guys, I'm really liking the look, looks classy and 'professional', and running smooth so far! excellent work

I'm getting a force close on android.process.media when entering an exchange account (when I'm trying to enter numbers) and when trying to pick an alarm notification. Can anyone confirm if it's just me?

doesnt happen to me..
I'm not getting any force close on entering an Exchange account, which field are you adding numbers in?
I'm also not finding any FC in the alarm notifications, did you try wiping the Dalvik-cache after you flashed, if you restored your data?

It is just a Nandroid backup hence there is no problem if you wish to go back to your original ROM after flashing this.
Added - SD Card Class 10 Fix
Added - lto.dat auto download Fix .(Downloads 7 day extended emphersis every 5 days automatically)
This is my first ROM release. I have collected all software from this forum and assembled it to build a stable fast ROM from official SBF.
Suggestions are welcome.
Install README - Step by step flashing guide:
Please do it at your own risk. I am not responsible for any damage of your phone. Rooting voids your warranty. Please backup all data before proceeding.
Download Latest PopcornV2.5 - http://ge.tt/8J61ppO/v/0?c
Extract the PopcornV2.5.zip to your SD card under the folder /clockworkmod/backup/PopcornV2.5. Remember that when you unzip it , you do not have two folders like /PopcornV2.5/PopcornV2.5
Restart the phone it will go in to boot menu or you can press vol - button when you see the blue led light.
Select Recovery-->Custom Recovery
Wipe only Data
In backup and restore, select restore and select the folder PopcornV2.5 and restore it
Wipe Cache
In advance setting , Wipe Dalvik Cache.
Reboot. Once you reboot wait for a while to restart. Once you see the welcome page, try not to skip the initial wizard and connect using 3G or 2G and complete the initial Google registration. This will enable the backup and restore to work smoothly. If you have no APNs during this, click the 4 square icon of your phone to add APN.
Let the phone complete the sync. Start the Market and let it be on for 5-10 minutes to update itself.
Again restart the phone it will go in to boot menu or you can press vol - button when you see the blue led light.
Optional -- Select System-->UnRooting. This will unroot your defy. If you wish to keep root, do not do this step.
Optional -- Select System-->Uninstall Bootloader. It will restart on its own. If you do not wish to remove bootloader, do not do this step.
Reboot and Enjoy. If you unroot and uninstall boot loader, this ROM will be a stock rom with no added preinstalled software.
Optional -- All All Apps in Task Manager Auto End List for a better Battery Life.
Optional -- Select Only 2G in Network Setting if you do not have a 3G data service for a better Battery Life.
Optional -- Calibrate Compass
Optional -- Switch off WiFi & search of open/secured WiFi network if not required
This is CLEAN Froyo at its best. No bloatware. Install your favorite software from Market.
Optional Add BLUR software as mentioned in this post

I have tried to include softwares which are practically needed and removed all other softwares which are not needed by an average user who need stable ROM and Fast ROM. Also anytime you can go back to original rom if you need to claim warranty.
Also this is for GREEN Lens & Red Lens

Good thanks any plans on upgrading froyo to gingerbread?
How did you test and therefore claim it is the fastest rom?
There is no test. But this is my observation with so many roms of Froyo and Gingerbread.
After comparing both the OS, I found froyo to be more stable on Defy and hence worked out this rom.
I tested this on quadrant score of 1393 and the GPS fix is done in 9 seconds
the camera gets the location in 3 seconds... Also camera is more responsive in this rom.
After Installing, install your favourite browser and favourite file browser as I have removed the stock browser and file manager as Market has much better options.
If I keep them, they will unnecessarily be seen in the menu and eat RAM/Battery and many guys dont use them. Hence decided to remove them.
appreciate your efforts in bringing this up... and hope that it better than the stock froyo. However would be kind if you could provide more details on your ROM.
Many would like to understand the difference between this and the others available before jumping onto the rom.
I experience on IN Stock Froyo has been disappointing and the reason I had to switch to CM 7x
Thanks.
Can I install CM7 or MIUI over this ROM? Will it have the new kernel?
Thanks!
Samsung Epic Touch has an ICS leak, thanks to QBKing77.
Features:
Some of the major features of this ICS ROM are continuous voice-transcription, face-unlock, the new multitasking carousel, and swipe-to-dismiss notifications and apps.
This ROM is deoxed and prerooted.
3G/Wi-Fi/4G working.
Make sure you watch the video below to have a complete view on the features of this ROM.
What does not work?
Samsung Keyboard results in Force Close errors. Workaround: Go to Settings>Language and Keyboard>Default and select Swype or any other keyboard which you like.
How to Install
Download the file from the link below, make a backup in CWM Recovery and flash the zip file.
After this, boot into stock recovery and wipe all user data.
Reboot, You might need to reinsert the battery quite a few times to succeed.
For full tutorial, refer http://www.blogotechblog.com/2012/02/download-ics-4-0-3-leak-build-fb09-for-samsung-epic-4g-touch/

Introduction
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
This is the EMBRYO ROM, currently based of the ICS leaks for ATT Galaxy S2 Skyrocket (ATT SGH-I727), thanks to the designgears and the unknown leak source.
HOW I DO THINGS
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I painfully deodex, zipalign ROM, using my stringent process, no kitchen tools or dumping crap in the classpath, every apk will be deodexed with *only* what it needs. Not I apply this rule to any Samsung APKS I port from other roms (such as SGS3). Hence EMBRYO is all about:
high quality
fixing what Samsung should have fixed
enabling restricted features
key unique enhancements
of course being your daily driver.
it will be a "clean-room" implementation, always.
I dont release half cooked stuff, the rom has to go through my daily driver tests before it gets to you .
Themeing will be sparse, if any, if someone wants to volunteer, great, I will include it as an add-on in the OP. If this is not what you are looking for move on, this ROM is not for you. I provide everything kernels, radios and ROMS, do NOT use it from anywhere else, since everything I do is from scratch, I can vouch for what I have provided.

1) PLEASE READ THE ENTIRE POST #1 and #3. READ IT AGAIN, BEFORE YOU POST A REPLY. MOST OF YOUR QUESTIONS WILL BE ANSWERED.
2) I will give you my development environment. I ONLY use the recovery that I have posted in the RECOVERY Download Section here. All the CWM flashable zip are tested with that and NO OTHER RECOVERY. If you are doing Fix Permissions, Darkside Wipe (ATT Users Only) or god knows what else, something is wrong with your recovery, I have confirmed this with multiple users.
3) ATT Skyrocket Users: If you have never flashed the ONE CLICK ODIN Leak, please just DO IT. Follow the instructions in POST #3. Rogers Users, you are out of luck unfortunately, as the one click will not work for you.
4) Please DO NOT FLASH KERNELS and RADIOS FROM ANY OTHER PLACE. USE THE ONES I HAVE PROVIDED IN THIS POST. AS I BUILD AND VERIFY THEM TO ENSURE IT WORKS CORRECTLY WITH EMBRYO ROM.

03-JUN-2012 (EMBRYO-3.2)
NOTE: The SGS3 apks were deodexed, zipaligned and the mods built on top of that (yup, can't trust anyone ).

♣ SGS3 Launcher: You can set wallpapers by long pressing the workspace, works flawless. Except that Home and lock screen wallpaper will only set lockscreen. (Setting via Settings will still work though).

KERNELS
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Note, please don't ask for a custom kernel, SAMSUNG needs to release the source, before it can be built. The kernel is basically stock with ramfs tweaks to enable some features. NOTE: the kernels below are packaged as CWM zip file, with EMBRYO ROM as the target, it may work in other ROMS, but I will not guarantee anything.
♣ [UCLE2] EMBRYO-3.X ONLY (ANY 3.X version of EMBRYO). DO NOT FLASH ON EMBRYO-2.X or lower versions. This is the kernel from the first leak. Download
♣ [UCALC4] EMBRYO-2.X ONLY. DO NOT FLASH ON EMBRYO-3.X This is the kernel from the first leak. Download

RADIOS

THE ROM DOES NOT COME WITH A RADIO. ALTHOUGH THE RADIO THAT YOU HAVE WILL WORK WITH EMBRYO, IT MAY NOT PERFORM AS WELL FOR YOU. OR IF YOU WANT TO STICK TO THE RADIO THAT MATCHES THE SAMSUNG BASE OF EMBRYO (RECOMMENDED), FLASH IT FROM BELOW. NOTE: THIS ARE PACKAGED AND VERIFIED TO WORK WITH EMBRYO ROM. SEE THE TOP OF THE POST FOR MAPPING OF EMBRYO VERSION AND SAMSUNG BASE.
Please note, radios/modems depend on lot of factors. I have provided the rogers radio which is RAT unlocked so you can take advantage of the Network Mode enablement in EMBRYO-2.x and above. ALL ATT Radios are RAT LOCKED, which means you cannot change the Network Mode from Settings, ONLY ROGERS Radio allow you to do that.

FAQ
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS/ ISSUES ETC.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
♠ How do I get a CLEAN install done? (ONLY for ATT SKYROCKET USERS)
This is what I do if I really really need a clean install. Do the following, I am assuming you have your PC configured and ODIN installed and your device is detected:
1) Back up your Internal SDCARD (if you are using Tibu, backup the Tibu Folder to your PC).
2) Flash the ONE CLICK ODIN ICS leak UCLE2 or (UCLD2) (here is the torrent link, DOWNLOAD). NOTE: your internal SDCARD will BE WIPED.
3) Now, boot up. Copy the EMBRYO Full ROM to your SDCARD.
4) Since, you will not have root, hence no CWM. Flash a CWM recovery via ODIN, here is the ODIN tar that I use (thanks sk8erwitskil). Download
5) Now, you need to get into CWM recovery to flash the ROM you saved in Step 3). Either use "adb reboot recovery" is you are usb tethered or the 3 finger salute.
6) Follow the Flashing Full Wipe ROM instructions..
Galaxy S3 Launcher Questions
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
♠ Home and lock Screen Wallpaper only sets the Lockscreen?
Yes, it in my TODO. You can *ALWAYS* use the Settings -> Display and set it there.
♠ Third party widgets, will it work or not?
All the widgets that are included in EMBRYO should work. Any other third party widgets may or may not work, not in this launcher the H/W acceleration is turned on by default. So, you need to be sure your widget supports that otherwise use the included Touchwiz (stock) launcher.
Galaxy S3 S-Voice Questions
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
♠ Deleting an Alarm does not remove the icon from Statusbar?
Yes, this is a bug in S-Voice I believe (or a feature?). I need to look into it, but you can restart the phone and it will go away.
♠ Double tab Home Button does not launch S-Voicce?
This is in my TODO. I need to look into the keybindings.
♠ How did you manage to get the storage to accomodate S-Voice?
I have modded it to be installed in /data partition. This frees-up a lot of space.
MISC Questions
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
♠ Do I need to flash a RADIO?
It depends. EMBRYO should work with any existing SR Radio that you may have. I will definitively recommend to use the RADIO with the SAMSUNG release (or leak) that the version of EMBRYO is based of. The OP has *ALL* the radios that are extracted to work with EMBRYO. Flash the one that you want or works best for you. DON'T START POSTING RADIO FLASHING QUESTIONS IN THE THREAD.
♠ I want the STOCK AOSP EMAIL App back?
Since EMBRYO-3.2 I have restored the STOCK e-mail back. If you want to use the AOSP ones (don't know why) I have them as an add-on, see post #1 add-ons sections.
♠ Tethering?
All tethering is Native Tethering as provided by Stock and ICS. And yes, it works flawlessly.
♠ SuperSU asks for updating the SU binary, what should I do?
You should hit the continue button. First time around, some users have reported that the Phone freezes and reboots, I have not looked into the issue. But after the reboot, it should work fine. As a workaround, try to access an app like TiBu, *before* you click super-su. In general, there is nothing to configure in Supersu, i wish it was a hidden app.
♠ I want the weather widget in the LockScreen?
Since EMBRYO-2.2 and above (including 3.0), I have moved to AOSP lockscreen, which does not support it. Please flash the Stock LockScreen (it is in the download sections, Add-ons). Please make sure you select the appropriate one for the version of EMBRYO you are running.. You must have flashed the AOSP Lockscreen add-on, flash back the Stock Lockscreen from add-on (make sure the version matches the EMBRYO one).
♠ Setting Lockscreen Wallpaper?
ICS has a very rich set of settings. And since I don't know exactly what the behavior is supposed to be, since we don't have the official manual yet, I cannot help you with the settings much. And on top of it your security settings affect it. If you want the normal behavior, go to Settings -> Display -> Lock Screen Wallpaper. Set you wallpaper there. Then make sure in Settings -> Security -> Lock automatically is set to "Immediately". NOTE: the above applies to Stock WallScreen (i have not tried it in AOSP Lockscreen).
See this post #397 for more info.
♠UCLE2 BUG: (affects EMBRYO-3.0) Screenshot Power + Vol low. does not work. Fixed in EMBRYO-3.1
The usual ICS key combination of Power + Vol Low, does not work in UCLE2 (effects EMBRYO-3.x).
♠UCLE2 BUG: (affects EMBRYO-3.0) Backlight Capacitive light bug in UCLE2
Effects EMBRYO-3.x and ALL UCLE2 based ROMS. It currently works on and off.
♠ UCLE2 BUG? Maybe note sure: Installing ATT VVM, might lose outgoing call dialtone.
This is not confirmed yet to be a bug, but some users have *not* experienced this, YMMV.
♠ What about Flash Player?
Since EMBRYO-2.2 it has been removed, please download it from the market/play store.
♠ Do I need to be in the <insert favorite> radio?
Please flash any radio that is in the Post #1 RADIOS section. ALWAYS backup your /efs partition. And I would also back this up in RECOVERY so it is not backed up while running the OS.
♠ Cannot change Network Mode selection when using ATT radios?
Sorry RAT locked..complain to ATT . Only ROGERS radio you can change it.
♠ Rogers RAT Unlocked Radio, two other modes are not working?
I believe the firmware is not allowing to change it to HSPA only or GSM only (need to test it out). So the Network mode feature should be considered experimental for now.
♠ Auto Brightness off and swipe status bar has no effect?
The UCLD2 kernel has this regression, flash the UCALC4 kernel if you need this.
♠ Extended Power Menu Download does not work, it reboots? Samsung has fixed this in UCLE2 kernel, so it should work in EMBRYO-3.X versions of ROM.
The UCLD2 kernel has this regression, flash the UCALC4 kernel if you need this. The UCLE2 and UCALC4 kernels do not have this issue.
♠ What bloat has been removed?
Pretty much all Samsung (except for TouchWiz of course) and all ATT nonsense has been purged.
♠ I need the weather in the lockscreen?
Since EMBRYO-2.1 it is the weather widget is provided.
♠ Will you provide any themes?
Maybe, maybe not, no promises. As bandwidth permits, even if I do it, it will be a port of some high quality one. And it will be an optional thing over the base for sure.
♠ How can I change the Order of the Toggle Buttons in the 15 toggle panel?
Please use the included QuickPanel Settings application in your app drawer.
♠ I need Samsung social apps, Kies aka all the bloat?
See the downloads section (Samsung and ATT bloat) in OP. You have been warned, also make sure you download for appropriate version of Embryo.
Woot! First post and first download. Thanks man. Will flash tonight and test in the morning!
Edit: Just flashed runs fine as I can see now. Ill provide more detail tomorrow. Great work thanks again.

Going to try it out after the download, and thank you for all your hard work on making a good rom.

I mean if you've been able to add network mode.

Can't thank you enough, Mohan. Embryo 1.0 was the best UCALC4 rom I ran. I'm sure 2.0 will be even better!

CWM & Modem
Hey mohan, thank you for your hardwork. Couple of questions, since I haven't tried your rom yet:
1. I'm using CWM 5.0.2.6, will the current version work or do I need to upgrade it? What do you recommend?
2. I'm using "first" ICS leak with UCALC4 modem, will I need to flash your rom plus the radio, or just your rom (since the modem is already incorporated in it)?
Thanks.

* Not sure about CWM 5.0.2.6. I use the 5.5.0.4 here.
* If you install this ROM. Then you can flash the radio afterwards, the link is there for UCLD2. Next few days, I will create zips for backing out various radios..
Love this rom! Awesome work!
aah you got the toggle mod working thank you!
Kernel (UCLD2) is included.
I will provide a separate zip for UCLD2 modem (later).
Debloated with care. (Let me know if you need specific APKS, I need good battery life, hence had to purge a bunch of things).
zipaligned
The usual busybox, ChainFire SU (superuser), bash.
Tethering Support, both HotSpot and USB.
Call Recording. (replaces Add Call Button)
15 toggle mod (PORTED from Wanam ROM, thanks wanam).
Circle battery.
Titanium Backup
Bunch of other tweaks..will update...
Please NO themeing requests, at least not right now.
Man you beat me to it i almost had it working but I messed up something because my SystemUI kept crashing! LOL... can I use this on my rom if you don't mind? THANKS!
Everything is working well for me except that there is still a problem setting homescreen wallpaper. Obviously not a huge deal as I just use WSS. Just thought I'd mention it. Thanks so much for all of your hard work.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using XDA
I'm glad the native tethering app now works as it should, thank-you chef
Looking good!
So far so good, got a bit bumpy on the way but got there eventually! I flashed cwm touch (took couple of attempts before getting it right) then flashed the rom then the modem. During the initial bootup process, it got hung up at the "Android" sign. Went back into cwm and reflashed the rom and modem then it booted up all the way.
1. I restored using tibu and looks good so far.
2. I also installed apex launcher (kinda like it more than tw launcher).
REQUEST: any chance you can add options for "Recovery" and "Download" in the extended menu? That would be awesome!!
One other minor and somewhat insignificant thing I've noticed since installation (and since fixing permissions and all that):
- The phone does not make an unlock sound upon unlocking (even when that feature is chosen in System Settings--> Sound--> Screen lock sound
Just thought I'd mention it.

* Wallpaper: yeah I left out that apk..will post the apk later.
* Sounds: You have to crank up the Volume for System Sounds. It is working for me..will have to triage that...if not so. Also, you shouldn't have to do fix permissions, I have carefully recrafted the permissions and also I have no idea what the Fix Permissions in the recovery does, hopefully it didn't mess things up .
