Samsung help - General Topics

so I recently brought a Samsung illusion EJ2(i think) after having a iPod that I turned into a iPhone kinda. So I'm new to android rooting and Roms and my question is: are there any good roms that I can use or am I out of luck? I already got root so that's no problem for me

Search anything you need in your device's respective forum. Maybe you'll find a rom that you like. Or you can request your device to be added here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1660354 if it's forum is not here.

There's no stable ics for galaxy fit yet..

AOKP 4 is currently the smoothest one. wait for few days for aokp 5
Follow this guide for everything you need for your(her) fit..

[REQUEST] Stock Galaxy S3 Camera.apk running on Jellybean

I love the features of the Galaxy S3 Camera app, but the rom is full of bloatware and lacking features.
I upgraded to ParanoidAndroid 2+, and love it.
Request to put the STOCK Galaxy S3 Camera App onto a JellyBean mod (like ParanoidAndroid or CM).

Attempts have been made @ this thread but there were no conclusive results.

Its not possible because the stock camera relies heavily on the stock samsung framework.

OOPS I was meant to quote the OP not you but you answered for him ... reason for my Question is because he is asking for a system app of a Different device
i think the camera app should be interchangable Not sure tho...I just find it odd as there is PLENTY more I9300 users with what you would be looking for and its no guessing game that way caues you KNOW it will work. Its better to be safe then sorry. And yes they are similar devices but they are not the same which is why we have 2 different development forums for them.
And if you want to try the camera app is in ausdim deodexed/zialigned XXALI5 rom , its in this thread somewhere just extract it out of there but your rom has to be deodexed aswell.

Roms etc. NEWBIE

I recently purchased the galaxy s3 and am quite happy with it, put adw launcher pro made a few tweaks got the jellybean update and am satisfied with everything it does.
My question is what is the need for flashing new Roms or rooting the device? What is the purpose and benefits?
I'm new to all of this and would love some briefing!

These questions have been asked before so I highly recommend you search for it.
Google will love to tell you everything she knows about it.
I root mine and flash ROMs to have access to FULL customization.
I keep it rooted before the battery life and features not available on stock.
(Ink lock screen, multi window, over clocked CPU. Note 2 apps.)
I mean the list is endless.
No doubt you will find some you enjoy as well.

FYI we don't like to answer these questions as there is a guide for it. The guide is located in the Android development section. Also in that section is a guide to rooting the recent OTA.

Goodbye everyone

& that's the same reason I turn to Galaxy Grand before last few months.. gave my acep to little brother
really feeling sick by waiting for official release.
so the better way is this only, if we don't get an update, there is no way to wait for nothing.

my ace plus is also a gift from my sisters and thats the reason i have to keep this phone forever
i too have a kindle fire and a tab 2 but my daily driver is ace plus :good:
I had an Ace than decided to give to my sister .
Then one night my dad said to look into Ace Plus specs ,before looking into I said it is worthless ,and told that I do not need a device .But then he told me that he already bought one .This was a reason why I hate before asking to me though.
It made me happy ,but time passed and I became tired of this phone . :/

I thought i'd have a better flashing experience on the i9300, but i have to say......i didn't... the /efs partition can be easily broken, newer basebands dont work with wifi on any kernel other than stock and no roms except touchwiz-based support the SDcard....that's just horrible. the i9300 is pure crap when it comes to customizing screw samsung and their /efs dependencies and screw their exFAT sdcard format

Rumors have it that the update to Samsung will bring a crappy security system called KNOX, which is like the number of custom images we have on samsung devices, but KNOX cant be removed in any way. It is permanent

JMT ROM for T989

I would have posted this in the actual ROM thread but I just joined and don't have enough posts to reply in a developer thread. Are Samsung T989 roms compatible with the Samsung T989D? This is essentially the exact same phone, and the rooting process is nearly the same... Sorry, this will be my first custom ROM and my phone is required for work purposes so I'd like to ask and play it safe. TIA
