lol, I have the T-mobile GSII
Rooted, rom'd and loving it.
now of course he wants to join, but he lives in the arctic, Canada and is on Rogers.
I found a video on how to root it, but really, if there is no Roms he can put on it, its kinda useless.
Anyone know of a ICS rom that works with Rogers ??
Maybe a rogers radio with an AT&T rom ?
no?
Thanks

Yes he can do almost everything the AT&T people can do, in fact we a unlocked radio where we can fiddle with the LTE settings.
I'm running the "official" CM9 right now.
awesome dude, thanks.. Do you have a link for the official CM 9 for the rogers ?? Thanks
Ok I did the root method from the guy who posted first here.
It seems to of worked.. but how do I get Clockwork recovery on ??
I had him install Rom manager but what model phone is his?

Don't use rom manager to install recovery!!!
Go to development section and check out the stickies.
His phone model is the i727R.
If you're rooted, you can quite easily flash CWM via odin (I use CWM touch). Once you're rooted and have CWM installed, you can install (almost) any of the roms you find in the development section. Instructions for installation are usually included in the development thread.
My two favourite roms at the moment are SkyICS and CM9. I'm currently running SkyICS as I can get a solid three days between charges with moderate usage although I do enjoy the feel of CM9 a bit more.

I would make the point that it seems, at least in my case and perhaps others, that CWM Touch is required if flashing from GB. I had to do that so...my $0.02, and all.
Edit: That is, if you want to avoid having to do some additional steps like Darside wipe.

Peter Alfonso's GPA19 ROM is the most stable one that I tried. Look for Peter Alfonso's site and click the Downloads link for crespo. I would post a link here, but XDA's nonsense won't allow it.
Download the 12-07-11 one to get the latest GB version. There aren't a lot of customizations like CM, Oxygen, MIUI, etc., but it's stable as hell. The latest Oxygen (2.3.2) has a REALLY obnoxious, and largely ignored, backlight notification bug where you have to reboot to get the lights to go out... only way I've ever found to fix it is to install another kernel. However, Peter Alfonso's got one of those too... just go to his site and it should be on the second page of the "blog."
I know you said you didn't like ICS, and I didn't either at first, but Pete's ICS ROMs are also great and very stable. The latest is 01-30-12, and you can get it from the same crespo download page.
question.
hey man i got a question, could i use peter alfonso's rooted stock rom for gingerbread (right?) when downgrading, right? instead of re rooting it.

Wow, really. I don't have any ICS envy seeing how sweet those kangs are. They're smooth as butter and stable too! Checking my phone, my current uptime is 132 hours (5.5 days) since my last reboot, which was to flash the latest kang back then.

I'm not exactly sure what you're asking. Both of his ROMs are pre-rooted, so no, you won't have to re-/root anything. But since you're going from ICS to GB you'll have to wipe everything, so there's no real "downgrade" path.
From a rooting perspective, the only difference I've noticed, that's kind of annoying, is that his GB ROM contains busybox and his ICS ROM doesn't. It's not a deal-breaker since there are Market apps to add it in, but it's kind of annoying that the binary has to be re-linked after each update/flash.

Im asking that if i can reverted back to gingerbread version without loosing root, may i install his pre-rooted stock without loosing root. Thats all, but since you mentioned it, im relived to revert it back. but i couldnt find his link could you provide me one? Also is it regular to flash it back to gb or is there a special method to do it?
I can't post links yet because our fine friends at XDA say that I need to post more for the privilege. Pfft.
You should be able to type peter alfonso downloads crespo and get to the page. 12-07-11 is the latest GB version (GPA19).
There's no "special" method for flashing, just do what you would do when going from one incompatible ROM to another... wipe data/factory reset, format cache partition, format /system, wipe dalvik cache. There are probably a million different combinations that different people will give you for the proper install, but that's what I normally do.
Tryout CyberGR's CM7 MOD and you won't go back:

Thanks got a little overwhelmed sooo many guides lol. So since he is on the borked att gb already (came with froyo out of the box) guess I'll move on to rooting and installing a custom rom. Thinking of sticking with gb based roms. Taking the kiss approach since my brother is not that tech savvy and my goal is to find the most stable rom for him (his answer to bugs is bro fix this now!!!) Lol he did want ics cause he saw mine but idk how stable the ics roms for the infuse is yet so I got reading to do. Guess he'll just have to put up with att crap a day or two longer.

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.

Leap...screw that take a running flying jump...leave the parachute behind...
we are here if you need help.
On gingerbread on tw based roms we had the ability to change the brightness of the screen by sliding the status bar / notification bar. So my question is what happened to it on ICS? Or is there a way we can get it back? It was super nifty probably the coolest feature of gingerbread on this phone.
Not sure if u are referring to stock ics or looking for a particular rom in which this option would be present. It is an option in cm9 stable. Hope this helps. Cheers

Also look at AOKP Milestone 6 (the latest aokp for ics before they turned their focus to jb). There isn't a thread on xda in dev section for some reason, but a simple Google search and you will find it. Also try out instigators kernel with a governor such as bad ass. His kernel is for cm9/aokp and can be found in dev section. Sorry to write a book haha. Good luck

Thanks so much for all this info! The only main reason why I haven't really branched out is because of nandroid backups. I read that when you make a back up it doesn't back up your radio and kernal. So haven't really wanted to try any roms that weren't UCLF6 based. But if I were to go out and try out a few cm9 roms what is the best way to keep track of the default kernal and radio from a rom? I was thinking about just flashing the old rom then restoring the backup of that rom. Or should I not worry about it?
The rom I am using is the latest by seanz and I just changed to twrp recovery. Thanks once again for all the help!

No problem! First off a nandroid DOES save the kernel but u can change the kernel u are using at any time. I am not 100% on the steps as I only have changed upon a fresh install but I believe you wipe cache and dalvik when changing ONLY the kernel and remaining on the same rom. Obviously firm these steps up before doing so. Sorry to go stray off on the thought process . A rom is almost always packaged with a kernel so keeping a base one isn't entirely necessary. If u were to flash cm9 and restored a nandroid of seanz rom you would be back to exactly what you had with his rom. The kernel would be whatever you had with SeanZ not Cm9. Radios don't need to be changed rom to rom and are almost always NOT packaged with a rom. Find one that works for you and stick with it imo. As for twrp I haven't used it but it should be the same. If I'm wrong then someone pls speak up.

Cm9 stable was released Friday Aug. 10th and with that release they have concluded work on cm9 and turned their focus to cm10. Bug fixes in cm10 that correlate to those still present in cm9 will be fixed in the way of nightlies, but the actual night to night improvements of cm9 has ceased. It is best to go with stable and steer clear of new nightlies if u are not having a problem as they may introduce new bugs. Good luck! Enjoy!

UCLF6 (or any radio) will work for any rom you use.
I'm currently running it with a Gingerbread rom.
Just find which one is best in your area & use it for whatever rom you like.

Sorry but as well intended as it may seem, some of this info is incorrect. As far as I know the newer recoveries including twrp and cwm touch DO backup kernel, but not radio. Older 5.0.2.x based recoveries which many people still use after initial flash do not, so make sure u are using a recent one. However, reflashing a kernel and/or radio after getting ur rom running is a breeze and doesn't really interfere, so on that front ur good. Also note that u may have to reflash a radio after any rom install anyway as they may include ics specific libraries eg. Blaze, telus. The rest of the info was solid

But that's cuz every rom u flashed had ucle2 based libs bro except for newer cm9 and cm10 code bases, which use uclf6 libs, where are quite compatible with ucle2 and vice versa.
Plus I have no doubt u have the knowledge and know how to diagnose data/voice issues and flash different radios if necessary. I was speaking with the intent to an audience that is still learning, not a seasoned vet/almost dev lol

Thanks for all the help! I flashed cm9 the day you told me about it and I got to say.. I love it! I found one bug and that was if you open camera then click on the pic in the bottom corner (it opens the pic) then click on the pic (which opens the pic in the gallery) then when you hit the back button the camera app fcs. I tested this a few times and one time my phone actually rebooted and froze on the boot screen. I just pulled the battery and turned it on and no problems. BUT long story short I disabled the gallery and installed quick pic ( i like quickpic better anyways) and now the camera doesn't fc! Super easy fix for the only bug I have found so far. But I am really liking this rom! Thanks for the heads up buddy. Also I was confused when it said it was uploaded on the 10th! I was like this is like a few days ago OMG. lol But I gotta say i really like it! I really like the ability to have BLN with out the app installed I can't wait for a cm10 stable! and That makes perfect sense to not flash a nightly if stable is working fine thanks for the heads up!

UCLF6 (or any radio) will work for any rom you use.
I'm currently running it with a Gingerbread rom.
Just find which one is best in your area & use it for whatever rom you like.

This is wonderful news that that ICS radio works on GB! At least i would think it is an ics rom cause it got released with the ATT ICS release. lol

Sorry but as well intended as it may seem, some of this info is incorrect. As far as I know the newer recoveries including twrp and cwm touch DO backup kernel, but not radio. Older 5.0.2.x based recoveries which many people still use after initial flash do not, so make sure u are using a recent one. However, reflashing a kernel and/or radio after getting ur rom running is a breeze and doesn't really interfere, so on that front ur good. Also note that u may have to reflash a radio after any rom install anyway as they may include ics specific libraries eg. Blaze, telus. The rest of the info was solid

Thanks for the help! I am using TWRP so it does back up the kernal
If i wasn't using twrp i would be using cwm touch but this is great to know that before it didn't and NOW it does so it is less to worry about
Its just sometimes finding which kernal the rom was using could be a pain. Like on some of seanzs roms IDK which kernal is the default because sometimes he has like UCLF6 and UCLF6 Modded by me and I don't know which was in the default for the rom lol
Hi
I've been searching the net for a custom ICS or JB rom for my Rogers Infuse but I couldn't find anything. All what I've found are roms installed using CWM not Odin and from what I've understood I can't install CWM. Is it possible to have your help guys to find this ROM?
Thanks.
Ics and jb roms also work with rogers infuse.
You should be able to install cwm on your phone, probably by flashing a custom kernel.
I'll see if I can find anything and also encourage you to search around about that.

Here are some instructions: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=20140197&postcount=3
That should give you cwm and allow you to flash ics or jb roms.

Thank you andros for your help
Now I have CWM, can I install any ICS or JB rom for Infuse or should I watch also if the kernel is the same?
Great!
Yes, you should be able to flash any rom now.
Be sure to follow the instructions. You can use my how to flash jb guide, linked in my sig.

the roms will include kernels, don't mix kernels. the aosp dev scene changes by the week (sometimes day) on the infuse as we try to catch up to the galaxy s' level(they had a lot of headway and a ton more highly experienced developers). so a kernel for a rom today might only partially work with a rom from two weeks ago..
only change the kernel if the rom developer has an alternative kernel such as oc/uv or something....
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
CM10 doesn't have a functioning camera? doh
