Follow the instructions on the link I posted previously to make sure you get GB flashed correctly - correct bootloaders / no ext 4 issues etc...
Then check the Dev section for the latest roms - Valhala 1.1 is nice....
I don't use Wifi a whole lot so I can't really comment on that.

Just read OP instructions for whatever ROM you are about to flash...very carefully until you completely understand the process. If you have any questions, read through the entire associated thread as they have probably already been asked and answered.
Just read, read, read. All of the information you need is available on these boards. I've bootlooped and soft bricked my phone several times, and each time it was because I hadn't followed the OP instructions to a "T".
If you have done everything above and still have a question it is likely that it is a good question, and there are a ton of really nice helpful people that will jump in and help you out.
EDIT: GB battery life is awesome.....

yeah and your helping me out is great looked around found this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1215748 seems too be easy too get on GB with no mess up

Just so the ops not alone, I flashed the deodexed and rooted kd1 then the bali 3.3uv kernal. When I try and flash adrenaline shot 7 i get stuck at the boot logo, any ideas here?

If any1 can help you get out of the loop, that would be great but if you can't you can try the following.
1. If you can get into CWM you can try to do a factory reset or reinstall the rom.
2. If you can not get into CWM you can try to use odin and flash a new rom.

the thread can be closed now thanks for all the help htaak

Did you try to manually push the files in through File explorer? Also, I think dsexton made the adrenaline shot on gingerbread roms, so it may not be 100% compatible on a froyo build. You might want to try some older versions of it if they are available.

ICS amazing on Cappy

I just wanted to say thanks to guys for the work on ICS on the Captivate. I'm an experienced flasher (almost addicted), and I'm impressed. Thread can be found here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1363760
I did a few things little different because I've never quite liked the CM Rom, but that's just me. I flashed mine over Cognition 5v2, but you have to twice. Also, I had to go back and put on the uckb1 modem....and started getting 2 to 3 bars on my signal where I used to never get any, with any phone. Slapped in Contol Freak and overclocked it to 1.3 ghz, Volume Control+ for some volume, and this sucker is blazingly fast, amazingly stable, and makes the Cappy even that much more impressive.
Sad part...two days ago was showing off my Super Soldering skills I did on applying Adam's Unbrickable Mod (yes I had my phone apart with the board in my hand in the middle of Wal-Mart's parking lot) when my screen slid off the car and sadly is now cracked....and it's still amazing!

The crazy crap that happens at Wal*Mart. Wtf lol

I love ICS on my cappy, I used Onecosmic's ICS 4.0.3 RC2.11 for i897 and couldn't be happier, I went from a non-rooted stock 2.3.5 to a rooted ICS and JVT modem which effectively fixed all my GPS woes as well.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1398223

Absolutely love ICS. Thank you to all that worked on it. My phone has been really stable and usable. Love it. I was planning on selling it and invest into something new but not anymore. I'll use it until it dies or someone gifts me a newer phone. **Doesn't happen often.
Thanks again ICS team.

Teamhacksungs ICS build 13 is what I am using now, and it is very stable. The main advantage for myself is the increased battery life, way better stock web browser, among other things, you should give it a try. (I have been using it since way back, like build 3, lol)
They updated today to build 14 but I don't see any improvements in it that are relevant for the way I use the phone, so I am going to skip 14 and see what happens with build 15.
Hope this helps.

Flash back to stock first (I use kh3 one click with cwm) then flash teamhacksung Rom, let boot fully, flash gapps 7.1, reboot and enjoy.
You must flash back to stock gingerbread first cause u probably have voodoo enabled on ur file structure, therefore ics won't install.

Here is a link for kh3 Odin one click, with custom cwm (boogs kernel), this is what I use before flashing ics, works every time.

Glad it worked out ics is like a totally different experience.
I can't go back to gingerbread after ics, lol. I also found cm7 (181) to be very stable too .
Just be sure before flashing custom roms, its a good idea to keep that one click handy due to differences in file structures, it avoids a lot of frustration.

New G2X seeking advice

I got this phone recently and I'm experiencing some minor bugs and was wondering if it's worth it loading a custom mod to it.
It's currently running GB 2.3.3 stock
I have no experience at all doing anything regarding custom roms or kernels or whatever. Before I do anything with my phone I want to know the ups and downs to it and if it's worth it
The bugs I currently have are random reboots but this has only happened twice in about 5 days of use wifi calling sometimes gets a little *****y but it works (for this I had to get a older sim card TM 9073)
Is there a stable rom around that most g2x users are using ?

thanks to all , the links where helpful I got the cyanogen RC 7.2 working good so far only 1 issue when I want to install the telenav gps says its not available in my country I really need this thing working . Apart from that It's a lot easier than I thought now just need to figure the gps thing out.

What country are you trying TeleNav in? And does google maps not work for you?

I agree. I'd usually use Google Maps Navigation. Has helped me quite nicely.

I already got it fixed apparently it was a corrupted rom. re downloaded and re installed and everything working nicely atm testing Hellfire phoenix this thing is awesome

[Q] New to the infuse forums and suffering from information overload and confusion

New to the infuse forums (so hoping I don't get beat up too much) basically Im trying to Downgrade my brothers infuse from the att ota gb update uclb3 back to froyo or upgrade to a custom gb rom, he is super pissed at me because his phone is super laggy and im the one that updated his phone.

If you can use heimdall, the simplest way is to put the phone into download mode and flash my uclb3 stock package or adam outler's stock package.
The second post in each op contains the insecure kernel. These kernels are also flashed in download mode. Once these custom kernels are flashed, you can boot into CWM and then flash the custom firmware you want.
If you are familiar with Odin, check out some of jscott30's thread. He has several Odin premade rooted firmware package that are also very nice.
Once you have the firmware you want, Zen has cooked up a few kernels that can overclock at 1400 or 1600. These will provide quite a bit of speed over stock kernels.

[Q] ICS 4.0.4 Rogers... WHY DID I UPGRATE???

Hi guys,
I am a total n00b here and I pretty much upgraded my i727r last month when Rogers released the official version. I was getting roughly 12-14hr of battery life at when I was using 2.3.5/6 (I dont remember the version/official Rogers). Ever since I upgraded I am getting 6hr of battery life which in my opinion is unacceptable, I simply cannot function with this phone. So my questions is the following is there a way for me to roll back?
I was reading this thread and it doesnt mention if this is for Gingerbread or ICS.
THE ODIN THREAD :: Return to stock, fix soft brick :: 11/13: Rogers TAR!
I am wondering if I do decide to keep ICS and load some custom roms for example:
[ROM] SKYICS 4.2E-17(ULCE2) 6/18/12--- Amazing battery.CRT OFF!!!!!
It mentions that my phone must be rooted but ever since I upgraded to ICS it removed my root I initially did. I dont see how to root ICS version of the i727r everything I see is for gingerbread. Could someone also help me find that link or give me a step by step how to root my i727r running ICS.
Thank you,

Go with Sky ... I was getting 25 hours on light use.

First off, check your installed programs. There are MANY out there that with ICS installed automatically turn on your GPS. This would be a prime example of why your getting such bad battery life.
Secondly make sure of your OS version. Be that 4.0.3 or 4.0.4 or what ever it is. You may need to re odin the install.

I would say do a factory reset and reflash via keys of you don't want to flash cmw and run an ics ROM.
Went back to stock cause I thought I was having hard ware issues and was able to get much better battery life then you.
Decided on sky ics for MHL support as aokp and CM9 do not support and have found this ROM to have the best battery life.
Also find sky ics to be just as good if not better then when I was running GB (mhx 3.1 final)... No turning back now
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727R running SKY-ICS 4.2F-6

If you dont like tinkering with CM9/AOKP I found that SkyICS was pretty good for battery use.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=28454809&postcount=19
This is what I wrote about battery life on another thread. :good:

i think that is not the reason, i got 35+ hours every charge cycle . i am on GB 2.36 nexus mod and with faux123 kernel. that is the best battery life kernel i have found .

I would install "OS Monitor" and try to find out what is draining all your battery. ICS has better battery life. It is the the OS, it is something with one of your apps that's not playing nice with ICS. You might even have the same problem with Gingerbread if you return to it because the app just doesn't work well on the Skyrocket.
I just found an interesting one today with OS monitor. Homerun Battle 2...leeches juice from my Skyrocket every 2 seconds. Had to remove it.

Thanks for the help guys,
I think I am going to give SKYICS a try. Especially since I have my SG2 from Bell here at work so if I brick my phone (knock on wood) I will have a backup phone just in case.
The only thing I am wondering is how do I root my phone, most guides are considering I am on Gingerbread and not ICS.
My goal is to follow the following instructions:
[ROM] SKYICS 4.2E-17(ULCE2) 6/18/12--- Amazing battery.CRT OFF!!!!!
Once again guys thanks for the help,

install CM9 man, it's incredible. Follow these instructions but instead of using their Alpha ROM use the nightly in the second link...
