It might be because I'm a newb, or my kernal is incompatable, but every rom I've tried has bugged out. The worst was ICS, where my home button had no functionality whatsoever. So currently I'm just running Faux's kernal and that's it. Solid, not buggy, no problems so far...

UHF sky ics isn't working right for you, then you are doing something wrong. I compare my phone to my brothers unrooted skyrocket. Mine is faster with the same battery life. Sometimes better battery life depending on the update.

There is now a MIUI open source!!!!

I know this is great news! But what does that mean for us exactly?

Is the hardest part of getting MIUI to work is getting our kernel go work with it?
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda premium
Don't worry, we have devs working on kernel. Hypothetically, once the CM7 kernel works, MIUI shouldn't be a problem.
Whooooooooooooo!!!! Falls Out

Yep it's true, I posted about this a week ago....
I have been working with MiuiAnderson to figure out why the build process is not working for the sgs4g. I can build it for the i9000 with no problems...
You won't need a different kernel with this. It ports MIUI to your custom rom.
I will post another update when he gets back to me..
yeah... its been out for while i think... hopefully this will make it for a MIUI ROM on this phone too with official support and stuff
If there is anything I can do to help like test out Rome or something I will be glad to help I myself see me having this device for 2 years.

hope MIUI is soon ported
I'm wondering if i can flash the cyanotouchwiz rom. I'm currently using SkyICS RC7.4 speed and also on UCLA3 modem with faux123-010b3_r2. Also if it matters kernel version 2.6.35.14. I bee looking around the forum and cant find post or a reply of anyone using cyanotouchwiz with UCLA3 modem. I want to flash the rom but i want to make sure i can before going forward and bricking my SR.
Thank you in advance.
Yes you can but make sure you use a program called apn backup and save your network settings. Then you install rom like anything else then the UCLA modem on top some say to do before but I didn't notice the difference... Also keep in mind that cyanowiz isn't built from UCLA and you would only be flashing the modem not the Kernal. After the ROM loads download apn backup and restore settings

Thank you for the reply. Another question though: I'm Assuming I have to flash da_ga kernel on top of rom right? Because that's the only kernel that would run on cm roms.

That is correct the pre4 I believe....it supports bln and had oc.UV features this ROM is by far more stable than the other alpha build

Np just fyi id still be using this if it weren't for the battery, its possible if ROMracer or faux made a more efficient cm Kernal it would be different. But if you try a non cm one its full of bugs and fc so ehhh I've been using nexusmod4 and i'm liking it so far.. looks like aosp but still twiz

Okay guys, im relatively new here but I'de like to think I know enough to get around and rom properly
I'm currently on a RAT Locked Radio (UCLF6) and an ATT ROM ICS (Sky ICS 4.2F) and am looking to switch to an AOSP or AOKP ROM that is very clean, simple, and as stock AOSP as possible.
The main issue I am having with my ROM is that the RAT is locked and I really needed the option of turning off LTE because I am in a test area and I keep getting flaky reception due to this. So i know to flash a RAT Unlocked Rodgers radio, heres the issue:
I cant seem to find any info out there on which ROMs that are purely AOSP and will support the radio that I seek. I also cant seem to figure out which ones people are using the most.
So Android community, what radio / Rom combo do you guys think would work for me? I'm honestly confused and any input is greatly appreciated.
Not sure about the radio side of things, but I love the CyanogenMod9 Rom. Very slick. Currently in nightly. I would only use a ROM from the developers section. (i.e.- don't just download a from zip from some random site....)
Best thing is to follow one of the noob guides to a T.
Lots of bricked Skyrockets out there...
I run CM9 nightly builds with CWM as my recovery. Works great!
Happy Modding!

If you want pure ICS. Go with cm9. You can use any rogers radio along with it as long as its ICS based. So the radio for their official release should work perfect.

Didn't i hear that people would flash Rogers radio and it would allow the ability to toggle lte
I also think there is data code you can type in dialer that takes you to engineer mouse or something like that don't ask me that is all i know
oh and cm9 ftw paired with instigators kernel
CM9 Skyrocket

Myself, I would like to try the official CM9 RC2. Just wondering what Gapps are and if it's needed or beneficial on the official CM9.
I just switched over to CM9 RC2
This rom is smooth but the battery life is terrible and the LTE toggle isnt working properly.
Can i flash Rogers radio over this? anyone have any tips or suggestions? will the radio affect the ROM?

Gapps= Google Apps.

Not mandatory but why have an android phone if you don't use the Google integration???

Try the nightly cm9 and the custom kernal for it. Cymbaline I believe. Or embryo used both and haven't had any issues.
Sent from the dark side of CM9 on my skyrocket.
I prefer Instigators with the Bad ass Script.... runs awesome on RC2 or the current nightly...

What roms have you tried. I'm at 72% battery on Remics with light usage and on about 19 hrs usage
Sent from my SGH-T959W using xda app-developers app
I did it few days ago. Went from ICS back to GB. AntonX's Barebones ROM. Enjoying great battery life now, strong WiFi signal and absence of other bugs.
Personally, I'd stay with ICS, but I'm handing down this phone to my wife (got Galaxy Nexus, yay!). And she does not care much about bells and whistles, she needs a solid ROM she can count on. As much as I loved ICS, it's not there yet.
Can recommend Barebones, great ROM. Apart from the strange color for interface bars, but that's a minor thing, and after all tastes differ. Other than that, it's a great solid ROM.
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda app-developers app
I went back to GB and the very next day I went back to ICS. I'm not far away from a charger ever and other than that the bugs are very minimal. I never really thought ICS was that big of a jump from GB but then getting so used to ICS and going back to GB it was night and day. I'd stay on ICS

Granted, I think that CM7 is the only MTD based GB rom.
And I need to update it... eh. so much to do.
Then I have newer version of blastoff v3 and an AOSP based rom coming soon. Which is still BML... for now.
I left ICS to go back to Valhalla FB. GB battery life is so much better. On Valhalla FB i lose 16% percent battery life in 11 hours of light usage .

I don't understand this thread. You're asking if you should go back to GB but you alteady did. Also, you gave the reasons. So what's the point?
ROMs, either Froyo, GB or ICS, as other works like mods and tweaks are there as options. You don't have to use anything. If you like something you try it and if you don't like it then switch to another thing. If ICS doesn't work because of battery, then go to GB.
I see no reason to create a thread for this. What's your point OP?
