[i9003]Arabic on all XXKPH-based Roms

hello all
did anyone manage to successfully Arabize any stock or custom-made KPH-based rom. this is desperately needed by far too many people. not sure when Samsung will officially release the 2.3.4 version of the arabic roms.
i would be really great if developers also integrate the Patch in their ROMs just like all CM7 ROMs
edit:!!?? not sure why the mod moved this from the development section of i9003 to here. it belongs there

can you read/write in arabic in the email,SMS and other applications?
if the problem is only the browser, then its no big deal. since you can use OperaMobile or firefox to get arabic support on any ROM

anybody made a CWR flashashable zip that works on custom roms yet?

JPKP5 is the answer
I am on JPKP5 official ROM
its arabic, its gingerbread 2.3.4
if you really want arabic, so why not use this ROM...its official too....
just see its thread, moreover it has its own CF-Root with CWM.
perfect for all arabic demands.

[Q] Which rom is the best for my rooted phone?

Hi, I have recently rooted my Desire S, with revolutionary, clockwork etc, and I currently ported this rom HTC_DESIRE_S_2.3.5-2.10.401.4.zip
Everything is working just fine, but theoretically, when I decide to port a new rom, how would I know which will work, and which won't?
Actually, I'm waiting until ICS is released for desire s, so I can find it and install it...
Are there any methods to identify which rom would be compatible?
Thank you!

hey mate
your're actually talking about two different things: porting a ROM and flashing a ROM.
Porting means, you take a ROM from another device and modify it so it works on your device too.
flashing means, you take a ROM which is already optimized for your device
and install it, so you wipe the stock firmware and get a custom rom.
which of the two things is what you want to do? i think its just the flashing.
so you can take any ROM from the "development section", and if you follow the guides that you can find everywhere here im sure you will be succesfull and happy with it.
bytheway
there is no "best" ROM for your device. it all depends on what you need and want. there are alot sense 3.5 Roms, Endymion 3.4 is the one i would recommend. you can also try AOSP ROMs (android open source project, means no sense), cyanogenmod7 could be a good first choice. and you can also try ics right now, since there are at least 3 (?) ICS AOSP ROMs right now:
CM9, Virtuous Quattro RC3, IceColdSandwich
have fun!

Yes I meant "flashing" a rom
Thanks for all the information. That's the general idea I have as well, however I had this question because after I flashed another rom (official rom through htc sync - that could have been the problem) over my first flashed one , the phone was "bricked"....

i would never recommend to flash an official ROM over a custom ROM. But anyways, i think if you would have done a full wipe before flashing the official rom you wouldnt have got a "you call it brick"
a real "BRICK" is a useless phone, where there is no way to use it again.if there is still a way, its no brick.. but who cares about definitions
I recommend you to flash the ROMs only through recovery mode. AND ALWAYS DO A FULL WIPE BEFORE FLASHING A NEW ROM. very important
and dont forget to backup as always

Yes you are absolutely right. I'll have that in mind the next time I'll decide to flash a new one
Yeah the device wasn't completely useless, it hanged at boot...but I guess that was due to not following the right procedure as you previously described..
Thanks eyahl

Start flashing different roms and trying them for a day or two. First
Sens 3.0 and then sense 3.5 roms to see the difference. Only then you will know which rom is best for you.

+1 for Endymion 3.4,

+1 for Endymion
Swyped from my Desire S using XDA Premium

+1 Endymion
Sent from my HTC Desire S using xda premium

edymion, will try it

+1266592.23 for Endymion

Each ROM type suits different personal tastes, so there isn't an 'best' ROM for everyone. Trial and Error which ones suit you!
General opinions:
Stock
Pro: Straight from HTC, *newest kernel/drivers*, least likely to have compatibility issues.
Cons: HTC is slow to release updates, and sense interface is usually resource hungry.
Sense-like
Pro: usually keep the Sense interface, but custom kernals offer speed / various other improvements.Runnymead versions are kernals ported across from HTC Sensation (which offer some of the goodies like Beats Audio etc. that were not originally developed for Saga.
Cons: Sense interface is resource hungry...
CyanogenMod based
Pro: offer lots of customisations
Cons: not the most user friendly
AOSP
Pro: Roms from the android source, usually less resource hungry, so lighter and faster.
Cons: Obviously, no sense.
ICS Alpha/Beta
Not strictly a new category, but builds from the new Android 4.0 (ICS).
Currently some things (like camera) isn't fully working yet.
Note: new Desire S may suffer from camera/video lag bug with non-stock / non-sense ROMs, this is due to HTC putting in new hardware / driver into the new DS phones and the other kernels not reflecting this change yet.
Personally, I use SenseMOD Lite V1.2 build 2 as it is one of the few AOSP like builds that don't have the camera bug. Oxygen would have been best choice for me but unfortunately camera bug makes it unusable.

Hey guys. I don't want to drive over your feet, but I think the OP is already very satisfied with all those replies. specially the post above is really trying to help, but you spend much time to type what has already been written on the first page.
I appreciate your intend to help, bit I think the OP isn't gonna read this anymore..
Btw: endy!...

MIUI V4 official base 3.24 or 3.32?

First miuiandroid.com was based on 3.24 firmware.Have they upgrade it to newest
3.32 base?

At least one person over on the UK MIUI site says they are using 3.32 without issue. Sorry, I know this doesn't answer your question directly but it's the best I can do : )

2.3.16---based on 3.24 firmware rom. you can use this rom both on 3.24 & 3.32 firmware. no matter what firmware you flash, it has same issues as every rom based on 3.24 firmware (for example, the "blue tint" color issue)
2.3.23 & 2.3.30---based on 3.32 firmware rom.

Good to know. I'd been thinking of trying MIUI again as I used to really enjoy it on my HD2. Do you happen to know if MHL is supported now?

Sorry, i don't know about it.
For me, it is hard to make a choice between "MIUI v4 beta" & "Sense4.0".
they are both great UIs. but miui v4 beta is far from "complete miui", only icons and lockscreen can be themed, and some ui details are still "sense 3.6 look"...and sense 4.0 have no QuickSettings and Bluetooth...
...i just realized that what i just wrote is totally a mess...
I am not good at english, hope you can understand...

Your english is much better than you realise. I understood you perfectly : )
I used to like to put Go Launcher and some of their widgets over the top of MIUI. For me the only thing missing was the HTC IME (which was taken care of by the Go team's keyboard) and HTC's DLNA software. Everything else about MIUI was brilliant.
I may try it on my Sensation soon and see what it's like : )

ICS ROM versions

Hi guys,
I am a noob to the forum and to android. I have been using Mytouch 4G slide for over 8 months and I wish to upgrade it to ICS.
Having done a little research I found that Pyr'o'Ice and Cyanogen being mentioned a lot for ICS Roms. Are they both the same ? if not what are the differences in ROM especially with regards to stability and which one would you recommend.
Thank you

No, they are very different. Cyanogenmod ROMS are more of a "pure" Android, without the manufacturer shells like Sense. Pyro is based on a manufacturer ROM but has had much of the Sense removed to make it less bloated/faster (supposedly).
In the Developer forum here you will find many more ROMs available. From my experience, currently some good ICS offerings are the CM9.1r4 ROM and the MikXE with Sense 3.6 ROM. Also the ICS with Sense4.1 ROM works well for many people. Try them out to see what works best for you.

Thanks heaps. I will checkout the ROMs you guys recommended

[Q] Best daily ROM?

Hi, Had a HTC One X for a while now but recently got stolen so now i am back on my Desire S. I haven't been modding or flashing this phone in ages and haven't really followed all the threads.
Is there any one that can tell me what ROM works best for daily use at the moment. It is currently running on Fallout but i saw that hasn't been updated in a long time soo i think it is time to upgrade?
Any suggestions?
And yes i am a lazy person sorry

When will people learn?!
We don't do "best rom" threads on xda.

you must try SVHD 2.1.0 rom its stable and smooth , or ICS DS v8.0 final

The best ROM is the one you like the most.
I've gone from GB to HTC ICS to cm10. I've tried some custom ICS Roms but like the look, feel and functionality of Jellybean.
Some great work is being done on cm10.2 right now and hopefully soon cm11 KitKat. Fingers crossed.
The one I keep going back to is blindndumbs cm10.1 but development may have stopped.
Do a nandroid and flash away. See what works best for you. You won't know unless you try.

I'm sorry for my bad english, I'm italian.
You may look there:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1146601
It's a index of the most popular rom for our device.
In my opinion some of best rom are:
Pacman 23
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1672537
and
the best CM10.1
