[Q] Need Advice! Which Rom is the best for this device

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

[Q] Which custom ROM is recommended for me?

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

As he mentioned he needs video recording, so any CM based ROMs are out of question.

u can use poseidon rom since it more stable than CM all issues encountered by the users and testers has been solved like wifi, gps, battery performance..etc
plz hit the thanks button if i helped you

yep, i agree buddy.
of all roms ive tried (not including cm's) poseidon's rom over xxkpq was smoothest and best, with bugs solved.. along with this installation was kernel: uc v9 1009 + custom theme (you may choose up to your own choice) + some mods/scripts. the above enumerated was the best ive used for so long before moving to miui v4 2.7.6 which is way too smooth (however, unapplicable to u since video recording deems to work in low res).
cheers.

I loved titanium rom the most!! finest rom ^_^ .. even supports Hindi and other languages .. and i found it to be best when it comes battery ..

Would you say miui and poseidon are better than remics?? I'm thinking of flashing miui. I'm looking mostly for smoothnes in scroll and opening apps.
For you I think the best options are titanium or stock. I love stock roms! But they are not smooth enough for me, if that's not a problem for you, you should use the stock rom because of the lack of bugs.

i think ill go for titanium again, just will ask anyone if that rom works with bam kernel, smooth fast best battery life. I love stock rom to but to much lags and not so smooth, titanium has just one little bug; when someone calls you u cant see who is calling for about 1 second thats enough for grabbing the phone from your pocket lol, u all got thanks for answers, thanks.

if u want to be in stock ROM better to try the new value pack which is DDLF2 it has been reviewed by others and they can say that it is battery efficient, smooth and stable...and if u found lags u can use bam kernel v.14 beta that fixes bugs.. dont forget the thanks button..hehe
u can read some reviews about the said fw here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1741370

Try TheFrankenstein's Mod for DDLF2. Its smooth as hell . Literally as fast as CM7 . U could give it a try .

is there any bug ?

@ Angenit
im not saying that poseidon is better than remics buddy. i am saying that poseidon could be of good choice too. pls read op buddy, he asks for a bug free rom (specially with video recording) so i did not mention about remics,etc so as not to mislead him.
cheers,
edit:
sorry buddy, misunderstood ur post hehe..
poseidon paired with uc kernel v9 1009 was the longest streak i used (in terms of gingerbread base). apps smooth and snappy during opening. titanium had good reviews too buddy.
if u were referring of miui gingerbread, its not so stable and battery life is short. ryt now however, i am on miui v4 (ics based), which is far the snappiest ive tried in terms of scrolling and opening apps. battery life also is satisfactory with around 15-17 hrs moderate use per experience. miui v4's external card been changed to emmc =)

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.
