Since I have bricked my first Galaxy Fit after 3 days of using, I wonder which ROM (custom or stock) would be the best for this device?
I already ordered the same as new and still wanting to mod it because .. well Froyo sucks
My Knowledge so far
Rooted it and flashed gingerbread with Odin. Worked fine and stable.
To get now to my questions:
1. I would like to know (dis)advantages from the custom roms available for this device.
2. Does every Custom Rom support different languages? Cuz I´d prefer german or ant least english
3. Where do I get the files to flash it and can I use Odin for it or is there a different method needed (which one then pls)
4. Does every app run on custom ROMS?
It is much of questions, I know but it is half as much I want to know
I´ll be really glad about answers to this noobish questions.
check CREEDS ROM 1.5 its very nice, and only have 1 bug, the alarm.
Thank you.
What is the alarm bug means that it doesn´t work?
is Creed to be usable in other languages?
Where do I get the right version for my Device and do I flash it with Odin?

Try FITDroid v.2.0. Its probably the most bug free custom rom out there for our G-FIT.
But now I'm currently on Creed's ROM v.1.5
Creed's ROM Music force closes when you arrange song queues when you create a playlist.. but I installed Winamp from the market and it's great tho..
FITDroid 2.0/Creed's ROM I suggest
I'm on Creed's ROM atm
I liked cm but have some bugs like can't make international calls. So now i use creeds rom. Is ok , i think better than fitdroid. Cm is cool cuz u can oc

perhaps you mean the theme's notification area is too bright? try another theme and see what happens
==============================
for me, cranium is definitely the best of all I've tried, but that's very limited. the best thing is to test some for yourself and see, since different people have different preferences...
for what purposes u use ur phone mostly..

how is it that "it didn't work"? did it say you can't add it because of write privileges? did you install using root explore and then not reset? something else?
Sorry to gate crash the party but...
The super best custom ROMs will be when gingerbread 2.3.7 will be out.. Or probably if we have a successful ICS port... So honestly speaking there is no best custom ROM it is upto your daily usage for you to decide!
Tapashocked via my gt-I9003 with a random keyboard of my choice !
when i added that widget of task manager it displays that , problem in loading widget
any idea by how much time will 2.3.7 rom or ICS be released

Don't just shoot the question which has no meaning yet.
Hi all,
I need help deciding which custom ROM to flash to my i9003, but i want one that has full Arabic support and a good camera firmware. If possible, please post images of ROMs you recommend, any help is appreciated
Good camera- gingerbread has dim video recording, so choose a froyo custom rom. Maybe cranium 3.1(I tink its froyo, not sure) and should have Arabic(again, I'm not sure). Check out the android dev section for that rom, and also I believe you can add Arabic patch to any cRom.

hello mate,
Well if you not interested in video record, I suggest for you Cyanogenmod 7 it is so smooth and stable with some issue that can be fixed soon, like video record, apps can't use mic.
this is my chose
and have fun
@bscraze Thanks for your response. Ive been reading a little about Cranium 3.1, and i'm about to flash it but i had a question related to the instructions given by sakindia123:
he says clean flash to XXKPH, so can i flash to JPKP5 instead? it is exactly the same version of gb but just different region (language)
maybe anyone can answer my question without having to start a new thread over it
thanks..

I don't think so, there's no reason not flash to xxkph, unless you're sim locked. If you still want to try, go ahead, I'm not sure weather it will work. If it doesn't you can always reflash, as it will result in a soft brick at most

cranium is GB, not froyo. don't flash the rom without upgrading to GB first. (I see that was mentioned that you know it's GB, so just a warning...). in addition, if you haven't seen it yet and you want to use push mail notification, GB has a bug on all ROMs that keeps it from working properly. if you don't need it, then flash away!

The reason i dont want to flash to xxkph is that it doesnt support Arabic :/

Actually i do need the push mail notification, but i hate the Froyo keyboard, copy/paste options and some other things.. bottom line: i'll stick to GB (thanks for warning)
BUT i want it custom GB (i chose Cranium) and i'm facing the language issue mentioned above

Well they both have Arabic patch, just that I'm not sure if its preinstalled in cm7. Cm7 has dsp manager which is good, Poseidon I'm not sure if it has dsp manager. Its really personal preference, for me I prefer cm7. Poseidon just wasnt for me . If you try and you feel it doesnt suit your taste, then switch. Right now I love miui so much I haven't switched roms ever since I flashed it, though im aa flashaholic and flash a lot of roms in the past for my android phones

Remember to do a full wipe before and after flashing(for safety) and you may want to flash a custom kernel after that, maybe xda bam or uc kernel, and remember to wipe cache and dalvik before and after flashing the kernel.
Remember that if you can't boot your phone but can access download mode, don't panic, just do a reflash. Eg. Reflash kpq.
PS. I recommend uc kernel v9 2009 or 1009 or 3009 if your phone can handle the overclock. Also, custom roms are definitely better than stock roms have fun flashing

It depends on who lives where. For example for Europe, the best and most stable are S5670XXKPQ and S5670XWKT2. (Android 2.3.6).
IMO DDKT3 the best fw..
The best one is CYANOGEN 7.2 rc5 full by ankit...
Stable and bug free (for me atleast)

DX is for Asia and XW is for Europe.
I recommend:
- Stock ROM - DDKT3
- ROM based stock - Creed's Rom v2.0
Even if RazoDroid v2.3 is based on DDKT1 is stable and fast if you had stock before DDKT3 ROM installed.
Not speak English, so I use google translate. Thanks for understanding!
The most stable and bug free well be the stock ROM DDKT3.... you also have others like Creeds ROM which are less stable but more feature rich....
xwkt3 is from where??
can i flash my latin version fit with DDKT3 ive been having such and issue because of it being the "L" version
What about XXKPU? This is the latest version in EU (2.3.6) and it seems stable and faster then other versions.
duno, it didnt found me automaticaly my mobile internet settings, so i went back to xwkt2 (croatiian frimware) since i am from croatia too, i think that is best!! eaven for baseband
Hey is there anyone who likes froyo. Well i do . And am on froyo DDKB1 . But the prob. is that there are no roms made for froyo not even a basic one. So can anyone try makin a rom for froyo
Froyo.....yo.........
only few people use it so i don't think you'll find a custom rom for froyo
you should better update. gingerbread gives better performance and many more thinks so better update to 2.3.6

Android is moving to ICS and you are stuck at FROYO
After 12th develop your own rom based on "Froyo yo"
AND you have to find a way to flash the rom...cwm (unmodded) won't do good on froyo...
