Can I use the latest CWM with S5670XXKPP-SER ROM

Hey guys,
I am currently on DDQK5 ROM and wanted to test the S5670XXKPP-SER 2.3.6 ROM. Can I get full English language support on this ROM as I am from the UK? I also hope this wont affect my signal in the UK.
Also I wanted to know if the latest CWM version from TJ Styles works with this newer 2.3.6 ROM ?
Any other comments are welcome as I am not even sure if the S5670XXKPP-SER ROM is any better than the DDKQ5 ROM I currently use.
Thanks guys.

Just tried it and it works great!

Is there a stock 2.3.7 ROM ?

Hi there
I see in the development section that there is ICBINB 2.3.7 ROM.
I see no other 2.3.7 ROM there for SGS 4G.
Looking in Wikipedia I saw that Google Wallet feature was added in version 2.3.7.
I don't know if there were any other updates or bug fixes in 2.3.7.
Is there a stock 2.3.7 ROM for SGS 4G ?
where can I find such ?
What has changed there ?
Thanks.

No stock 2.3.7. Our last stock update was 2.3.6.

I think our 2.3.7 is just a de-samsungized 2.3.6

What do you mean by de-samsungized?
Sent from me

I don't think that was an accurate statement. It is just the number given to Raver's and DSexton's ROMs. icbinb 2.3.7_v2 is still very samsung. He was more so referring to Raver's ROMs.

Samsung galaxy s plus - Installing new custom rom question

Hello members,
First of all I'm new here and my English can be a bit bad, sorry for that.
My question is probably already asked but I couldn't find it, a link to the thread will be helpful.
So what is the problem?
I want to install a custom rom but I don't really know how to do it.
First of all:
- I have an Samsung Galaxy S Plus.
- I want a Custom rom that is working properly and bug free for 99.9%
- I am not an complete noob, I know how to flash with Odin, Root my phone, etc. etc.
I have already done some research, but must I do a Hard Reset to install a new rom? Can I get my applications and personal settings back? (I made a back up) How do I get it back?
Which Custom rom's are almost bug free?
-Broodrom Rc5?
-Cranium Rc9?
- Others?
Thank you for helping me:good:,
At-
PS: Again sorry for the bad grammar.

Hi my friend. I also own a i9001.
1. There are some different kinds of roms. do you like Cyannomgen or Aokp based rom for 4.0.4 or a gingerbread rom (2.3.6) with launchers and kernels with overclock or underlock.
2. Gigabread is the best rom for me. It is 2.3.6. and it has every rom's best specs.
3. untill now has released CM9 build 7 and CM9 beta 2 by ivendor wich are very smooth and have fixed camera bugs ( not everything)
I dont like 2.3.6.custom roms with ics launcher because i think that they are heavy for our device and eat a lot of Ram memory....

I like both Cynagen and Aokp. I also like a rom based on 4.0.4 more than 2.3.6.
Can you tell me more about the different rom's and how to install them?

Every version of 4.0.4. is based on CM9 or aokp, but dev have put their own changes. And when there is a new version of cm9 or aokp they update their roms. If u want a rom based on i9300 I strongly recomend you Rem-ICS, a different 4.0.4 Paranoid. There are and some others roms, whicj I have not tried, but only minnor differences there are. Paranoid and Rem thre are th most famous and on other devices.
However there are a lot of option on Roms. Check them out at:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1270
Installation of cm9 or aokp rom.
1. You will need custom recovery for cm9: twrp or CMW5 or CMW6
2. Wipe data and cache.
3. Flash update*.zip.
4. Flash gapps*.zip. You must flash gapps after every upgrade to CM9 since /system is formatted, wiping your previous add-ons.
5. Reboot phone.
6. After you setup your Google account, reinstall the three apps from Market in order to restore most of your apps, call log and SMS history.
Don't use titan back up.

Fist of all, read the wiki:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/Samsung_Galaxy_S_Plus/GT-I9001
Then you have to install a custom recovery, you can follow this guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1776095

With this urls u will understand how dev is working. Inspite of the fact that they are for gingerbread they are very usesful for a beginer..
But cynomgen is very is to instal and to use..

I can really really recommend the CM9 ICS ROMs by arco and ivendor. Check their respective threads to see if the remaining bugs affect you and if they don't or hardly do use these versions instead of modded stock ROM.
I currently have arco's Alpha 7 installed and it's so much better than the Gingerbread Samsung firmwares, even the debloated ones.

I agree with you. I think that only gigabread is the best modifited 2.3.6. The others 2.3.6 use launchers like halo, go and I think that they are lagy.. So try a 4.0.4 and since the last edition of cm9 only fm radio is not working. Usb tethering is improved and 80% of camera is working...
However a bug is battery life, and if you use a lot wifi and 3g it will drain a lot of battery

Thank you guys, i'm going to install cm9!
Edit: What are the difference between cm 7.2 and 9? I can't see any differences on videos.
Cm 7.2 is stock based?

Cm9 is based on 4.0.4 and cm7 is based on 2.3.7. Install cm9.not cm7...

Newbie help

Hi!
Iam new to android world using a samsung S i897.
I want to install JB and found the slim rom in this (awesom) forum.
The slim version of android is a part of it? What Im missing? There are features that where left out?
Iam confuse on which are oficial versions and how obtain them and which are mods or custom versions. Exist a ICS official rom for my phone? Is better upgrade to that version or the JB slim rom?
Thanks!!!

None of the Galaxy S series of phones are getting official ICS, let alone JB.
So anything for your phone that's ICS or Jellybean is unofficial.
And you should use Slim JB because its waaay better than stock GB and has no bloat, along with performance boosts. Heck, any custom ROM is better than official versions (aside from the usual bugs when they are in early development).

CM9
You may want to look at CyanogenMod 9.. or wait around for a CyanogenMod 10
Google it, I can't post links yet..

You can wait (stable) custom jelly bean version if that appear as it is the most recent android version.

The captivate has good jb ROMs such as hellybean or slim bean as you said. But these guys are right, there will never be any ICS or JB official updates for it because its an outdated phone much like the vibrant or original i9000. The closest you get to stock would be slim bean or slim ICS.

Serch normal JB Rom and flash that. Or ICS if you will not find normal stable JB.

Thanks!!
I will try that.

My first custom ROM was Gingerbread Stable by Freddy(FxSxZx)
this rom was the coolest and very stable without any bug
it had whole ICS feel and settngs.
My current Custom ROM is unofficial CM7.2 by RishabAd.
Same like official CM7 but with few enhacments.
ICS themed speed optimizers and many more. Till now bug free.. :good:

First Custom Rom -- Creeds v3.0
Nice extension to the Stock rom...
Stable and bug free..
Present -- CM7 official
Fast, light and bug free - can't expect more!!!
****Do What U Love!!!
Love What U Do!!!****

I do not remember my first custom ROM.
My current custom ROM is [4.1.2] Cyanogenmod 10 by Yajnavalkya [RC-1][7-Dec-2012].
I am pleased with this ROM.

My first rom was creed which was full of bug. I dont remember which version was it. I chose that because of the number of viewers for its thread.
My current rom is officialy cm7 with V6 supercharger. It makes my phone increadebly fast and smooth. I use holo luncher and holo locker and link2sd to link apps to sd card. I also installed the JB theme for cm7 from galaxy mini forum. Everything's just fine and perfect. Thanks tj_styjle for developing thiw awesome rom

My first custom rom was CREEDS rom v1.5. I was very amazed by that rom. I still miss that rom very much. I also want to use it even today,but the link of the rom is not working,and i dont think anyone can be having it because it is a very old rom(if anyone has the rom pls inform me).
Currently im using cm7.2 official. Very fast and smooth rom. But still waiting for cm10 rc2

My 1st rom was unofficial cm7.2 i dnt remember the creator but i downloaded from androadvices also it was a smooth,good battery backup and stable rom and current rom is cm7 official latest nightly 9/12..i have almost tried every rom on thi forum..except some which i dont like..

creeds rom 3.0 my first
for about 7 month bug free good rom stable(for me at least)
then tried AOKP v9 Nightly for about a minute(no offense)
i didn't like the apps icon so i quickly changed to JANAS Rom v6.5
good rom also stable but have one bug or two
but it's very satisfying for me

First rom was Chocobread
Current rom .... CM10 by Yajnavalkya

My first ROM was Creed v3
Current is CM 7.2 and waiting for yajnab rc2

hehe..nice thread btw..
the first custom rom I tried was Andro-ID v3.3.1 by Tj_style, this was the rom that makes it worth to void my warranty by rooting my fit and installing CWM recovery (also made by Tj_style)..I remember it was using the first stable (no wifi tethering bug, CMIIW) 2.6.35.14 kernel with many features made by himself, the most stable gingerbread-based custom rom I'd say.
current rom is jana's rom v6.5, stable, highly customized, with many features.. with DXKT7 as a nice base, also.. and with seeders, it is lagfree:victory::good:
edit: it is cyanogenmod that has better performance than stock-based custom rom, but I prefer stock because I'm used to type with alphanumeric/ samsung keyboard

my first rom was creeds v3, it was nice in performance but i didnt like the graphics and customitation, and before that razodroid, it was excelent, but after some months i change to cm7official. so far the best except for battery life. and sometimes change to cm10 just for fun. waiting for cm10 rc3 oe stable

My first custom rom was cyanogenmod rc3 ( pretty old ) ported by asad with 768 kernel from squadzone, it was pretty stable and with a nice battery backup too.
My current rom is JANA 6.7 with ICS theme, the best stock based rom

first rom razodroid v1
current rom
cm10
