@CRK1995: I tested on my mobile. Blutooth is working fine, I could able to do, both send and receive files from my SGL (Poseidon rom).
May be its the problem with the other device. I too have similar problem when I tried to share data from my Nokia (its pretty old). I would like to suggest to check with some other mobiles also.

Hi, After trying so many different Custom ROMs, I feel Stock DDLF2 is the most stable of all..Good Battery Performance and No issues with Video recording WiFi etc...

Did u root it
Sent from my GT-I9003 using xda app-developers app

I had rooted it before but my phone kept rebooting every 4 hours without any reasons..So i went to complete Stock DDLF2 this time.
With Go Launcher its quite cool..

Opinion: Which ROM are you using..??

Hi Guys,
Can we share / Suggest which ROM we are using..??
As we know Many questions will arise:
Q. 1) Why I made this thread..??
A. For sure, We can discuss here what features we are availing in which ROM.:good:
Q. 2) Who will be most beneficial for this thread..??
A. 2 .Specially Noobs / Newbies will come to know that Which ROM are suitable for them & why.
Just like me:
I am using Angeek ROM. Its Awesome in Battery Life. Using MIUI home launcher in it, looking like real one. But I am unable to flash Ardatdat's new kernels due to some changes done in this ROM.
Don't know what is in my Mind Now but I thought we should share our thoughts here.
This thread is not Made to Dominate our Dev's. If any Dev feels so then I can ask MOD to Close this one.
Also, Note that "You're sharing opinions, not facts." Any suggestion would be welcomed. :highfive:

Just something to keep in mind with threads like these, Vikesh:
This thread should not be used to 'advertise' any one Developer's products. I have no issue with the thread staying, provided this is the only one made, and that it's used by you guys to simply share what ROMs you're using. No links etc.
Posting what works for you is fine. Posting 'why would you use that crap' though, is most definitely not.
Remember, this is a subjective thread. You're sharing opinions, not facts.
Keep that in mind, and enjoy :good: I'll keep an eye out here, too.

Yeah u are rite games r much smoother in gb as compared to ics.

currently on BlueBerry ROM 1.2, found it very stable and with no major bugs. and right now really in Love with Sensation theme of BB (though there is no blue in this theme still it is called BB )
Since it is an opinion oriented thread, I would like to say few word about other ROMs which I have tried so far.
Mazel 2 : It felt very smooth with different animations and theming, though it had bugs but now it has been resolved.
Suggestion : Hoping Selva to release next ROM based on XXLQ9.
Angeeks : This ROM is very Powerful (Battery life :good::good, bug-free and smooth,
Suggestion : Make it kernel friendly and ability to update GAPPS via Play Store.

2. Games like Temple run often lags.. i play this lot so a bit frustrated

its all right buddy. actually this thread is being watched by our great MOD "Justin". So, any comment which is not acceptable by him can close this whole thread. Thats why I said you buddy. I didn't mean that..Sorry If I hurt you..:crying:

I'm using TheFrankenstain mod 4.0.2 with some custom additions like BlueBerry mod or my kernel and I'm very satisfied with it.
MIUI is also very good, I really like it.
Mazel II: It drains my battery because of the nice animations and transitions, so I cannot use it as I don't bring my charger.
GS3: It has very good conception behind it and it's quite promising despite the fact that the gallery and music doesn't work. If I didn't like it, I wouldn't have created a repack of it.

2.3.6 VictoryRom -> ?

Hi Guys,
I'm currently on 2.3.6 VictoryRom v1.1 which new ROM has ICS and will give me the best performance?
Will it be as simple as installing from .zip using clockwork?
Thanks for the help!

To use ICS roms you have to upgrade to ICS first.
As for roms, it's all personal opinion what is best. If HDMI/lapdock support isn't essential for you, I would recommend CM10.

Cm10 roms are not stable.you can update to stock pics and root your phone.then pimp it(using pimpmyrom) free in play store.

Uhh..no CM10 is actually really stable. There are a couple really minor bugs left.. but it's Jelly Bean so it's smooth as butter (project butter) and is well worth the tiny bugs.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1869692

yeah, cm10 is very stable.. no random reboots or anything for me.. sure it has a few bugs, but nothing to stop you from using it as your daily driver. Actually what keeps making me go back to cm10 is that its so friggin smooth and ofcourse the little customisations you can do and themes..
For the OP, I dunno much about the GB roms, but id recommend both cm10 and and magicmod with performance and customisations in mind and that they are JB based
If you want full functionality, then all the ICS roms are good, just read thru the threads for the ROMs and devs description and screenshots and try the one according to need.. the latest one is numa and the first one is SCV7 which still is one of the best roms for our phone on ICS. If you ask me, you'll know which one to use only after youve flashed enough
Also remember to read the devs description of the ROM and how to flash properly, cause you need to use different recoveries for different ROMs. So better if you read up as much as you can. Do keep a backup of your stock ICS on ur sdcard, (i have like 3 now stock, cm10, numa) but you know how it goes, since youre already on a ROM..
Mostly youre gonna love your phone more after you get on ICS and flash one of the ICS and JB roms. Happy flashing !
EDIT: i missed it, but better if you post questions in the Q&A thread..

Thanks for the reply. I'll try CM10.
When installing ICS, will all I need to do is install .zip Blur_Version.55.13.25.MB865.ATT.en.US.zip? for ICS leak#1 or will I have to downgrade first?

yes.. I got Optimus G Lets see how it works out. I was actually about to recommend your rom to this guy.. So was checking your both roms. Anyway We will meet again. I was off the development for sometime as I had SGS2 (I9100), It had so many roms that I did nothing. But Now as I'm on LGOG may be I might need to cook. if time permits.
anyway from my side a BIG THANK YOU to you and Jim.. for putting so much work on this tread.

I loved Victory Rom. I'm sad to hear there wont be another one for my A2

Can't Install Custom ROMs

hi guys.
I have problems when installing certain custom ROMS using CWM acording to the Baseband used.
Don't Know why, but when I wanted to install VURRUT KPU again (i had done it several times) Screen keeps on the first image of SAMSUNG SCL I9003 and nothing happens.
I tried to use another custom ROM based on LF2, and when I install it via CWM, it does the same thing, the only difference is that the phone reboots and comes back again to the same SAMSUNG screen.
My phone is galaxy SCL I9003L but i've never had problems installing those ROMs.. It's very strange.
Please if someone could explain me if there is a reason why it's happening this, tell me, i'm a bit scared, using Stock FROYO I9003LUBKB1.
Thanks

Because your'e still in FROYO. Upgrade it first to gingerbread. See my post. General Guide for noobies.

Oh so ur phone is i9003L!
I think u can try the qwerty Rom, as far as I remember once LoSco (rom dev) told that his rom can also be used for Argentine version of SL i.e; Galaxy SL i9003L.
To confirm, just ask in that thread once then go for flashing it if he says yes.
Hope this helps u.

P920 Custom Rom Issues

Good day all I have a Problem that I can not resolve or I am doing something wrong. I had a Sony Play before and flashing Rom on it was a breeze, but i have got myself a lg Optimus 3D and seem to be difficult. When I am on a rooted gingerbread Rom with cwm touch installed everything is working. My Sim card is working and I have no random shutdowns. I have installed a couple of Roms on my phone and all have the same problem. What I have installed is the Walkman Rom, Miui v5 3.6.7 and Miui v5 3.3.29. All have the same problem . When I did is a factory reset,clear cache and install Rom everything works. When I load up the newly installed Rom I have random reboots and my Sim is not detected. About 5 minutes into using Rom it freezes for about 5 seconds then the screen turns black and to get it back on I have to do a battery pull. I have tried with ICS Rom but get boot loop. Can someone help me with this issue that I am have problems with. Thanks for you time.

OK thanks for the ics tutorial very helpful. But don't mean to sound like a newbie but how can i solve the problem with my installed custom Roms not working?? Or will this work to with customs jellybean Roms . Thanks again for you helpfulness and time.
Chrisdzie

For ICS based ROMs to work you first need to install ICS.That explains the bootloop. Normally you can't jump from GB to an ICS ROM. The guide shows you how to do that. Then you can choose XBSA ROM or whatever working one you like.
I have not used CM based ROMs, as 3D has not been made to work in these (there is no official LG JB for this phone yet). So, I am not sure about the install process for those.

There's no shame of being a newbie everyone was once a newbie before they become masters.

Well before I have installed jellybam v 7.8.0 which is a jellybean based Rom. Loved the options and worked fine, but after a day or two my internal storage became full and phone freezed up and unresponsive. Did research and found out that it was a bug. I installed that through official GB Rom. So I went back,then tried to install miui v5 and then walkman but they have the same shutdown and sim not detected issues. People with those Roms installed don't seem to have those issues. So you can see where I am confused. Thanks

Ok,ok,ok I think I have found the problem but don't know how to fix it... When I install the custom ROM my imei number is blank which is causing me phone to crash. When I revert back to stock ROM my imei number is back and my phone running without any problems.. Is there a fix for this, or did I need to do something with this before installing my custom ROM. (drastic00)- thanks for the link and sorry for the trouble. Thanks everybody that has helped me.

Well thanks everybody that had tried to help me but I have sold my p920 and got myself a HTC sensation. I did not like stock ROM on p920 and since custom firmware never worked then there was no use. Again thanks everybody.
