There is currently no ROM porting ics to our phone. We do have plenty of great roms available, though, so feel free to spend some time digging around our forums and reading. This is how you become a not-newb.

[Q] Old XDA user, newbie in Android, just 2 days

Hello All;
OK, I rooted my infuse, 2.2.1, i997uckd5, in updates i have one waiting, if i do it, it will loose something? like sim unlock or future custom rom ?
Sorry to ask this but I been reading a lot and my brain was damaged, old iphone user lol
i used the search...
thanks!
I wouldn't bother with the update and just flash one of the custom roms, they are based on newest update and there is even a gingerbread rom now...
Good luck.

I don't know about sim unlock but it will update you to ucke3. I was never on that for long as I rooted and flashed Infused rom shortly after updating and haven't looked back since. Hope this helps.
As far as sim unlocking is concerned that's more or less a permanent change. Rooting, wiping, flashing, unbricking, etc. Won't undo it.

Thank You, I will try the gingerbread before doing any upgrade from Att

Ics yes I am asking

Since the nexus 4g already has a working ics build is anyone working on porting this over they have a full system dump but I believe most of this was a sdk build.

If anyone from this forum is working on it, I will be more gladly to help them out. Dexton or Raver could probably port this since its not that hard at all...
Ps I gave my sgs4g to my sis in law which means I will blind port it but not until we found out who is working on it already and who is not. If you wana be testing rat, message me

I read in google posts that devices with hardware buttons running ICS will be using them and won't have their on screen replacements. That's good news, but i guess we'll need something official to support that.

Almost positive you have the option for both. Anyways I have a spare 4g to test with if needed.

I know its a different phone, but maybe not that different..? So we can hope for ICS to work to a reasonable extent on the SGS4G...?
I will test

Repartition?

HEAR ME OUT PLEASE! OK I have a Captivate, we have figured out the unbrickableness of our phone, and even have nexus s bootloaders working on there, fastboot, CWM, and even OEM unlock... Now to the real question, does the Nexus S ever get Repartitioned? I ask because the only reason we can't run your ROMs is because the Partition Table is whack compared to what it needs to be for Nexus S ROMs? Any help appreciated!

What exactly do you mean? Do you want to know if we've figured out a way to repartition the NAND to allocate more memory to the internal memory from the sdcard?
If that's your question then the answer is; no, not yet, but when I get free time I want to look into that more. There's a topic about this right here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1314146

No I'm Repartitioning so that the Nexus S ROM will work, so the ROM is installed to the directory that it is supposed to be... no need to reallocate memory! As I said we have gotten all the way to 'Nexus S bootloaders>fastboot>fastboot OEM unlock>installed CWM for the Nexus S!

I'd say use the Faux kernel with Sky Ice Cream
It gives me the best battery life... about 2 days with moderate use.
And NEVER use ROM Manager. It's BAD. VERY BAD!

Help PLEASE

Hello everyone,
I would like to start by saying I'm totally new to this world, so I ask that you hang in there with me. Ok
So I just rooted my Samsung sch-r820 (galaxy admire 4g) with metro pcs.
I want to update my software. I install clockworkmod but it seems not to be working.
I tried cyanmod but my device is unsupported. So my question is can i even update anything. Or am i stuck with gingerbread til i buy a new device.

By doing a quick Google search I couldn't find any development for this device here at XDA. So probably there won't be any CWM recovery/CyanogenMod ports for this model. Also don't try installing CWM recovery or CyanogenMod mentioned for other devices, as doing it so will brick your device.
I was wondering if I could use the Samsung admire info do you know?

Not sure what you meant by Samsung Admire Info?!
I know your device is Samsung Admire 4G, but what exactly do you want to modify in it? If you are looking for ICS ports, the chances for it will be quite less considering its not much popular device.
Yes i want ics

Samsung Admire, or Galaxy Admire ... both should be same.
Samsung Galaxy Admire has 800Mhz processor and Admire 4G has 1Ghz, so as there is a change in hardware most likely it won't work. You may need to port the ROM to Admire 4G in order for it to work.
I have no idea what port is or how to do it. Thank you for taking the time out and helping me.

Yeah, porting is something beyond the scope of what you've asked. Anyways if interested you can always have a look for Tutorials in XDA University, as there are tons of them. Good luck and have a nice day. :good:
