Ice Cream Sandwich Stock Version like the Nexus S Rom for the Skyrocket?

Im looking for a complete Stock ICS Rom if its available i used to have the Nexus S Unlocked and i love the complete Stock ICS Look, im wondering is there a Rom with all of that??
Yesterday i was testing the last waffle house build but i got three things i didnt like, first one the usb storage problem, second one for some reason some of the apps wont download at all, and finally the phone re booted on it self.
Any other build out there with the real stock look of ICS??

That's kind of a stupid statement,***mod edited***... The ICS releases that are out now are just like stock AT&T ota ics... Do you think they're going to change the rom completely or give us aosp ota??? The releases that we have are as close to stock as they are gonna get, only thing they're doing now is getting bugs out or adding apps from the carriers that they want... Have you tried all of the ICS roms out there? I've been running seanz ucle2 ics release rom and I've had absolutely no problems... As long as you read/follow the instructions completely everything should be fine... And thinking about this, the skyrocket is from AT&T not from google so we're never going to get stock ICS ota... OTA releases are not gonna be like aosp, aokp or cm9...

No no no I'm not a dev guys OK I ported the rom and the last release I only helped a bit I been busy on a few projects for the skyrocket community lol but to say the hard work and dedication that actual devs have put in is beneath you is a statement that I can not condone and actually is an insult to this site the roms in the dev section are far beyond what anything Samsung will ever do (/rant)

we need kernel source. After that it will be just a matter of time. The International HOX also shares a chipset with the Nexus 7 so that helps

Any news on getting that kernel source?
I'm assuming that we wont have full AOSP roms until we have that source?
Any news on getting S-OFF?
Man, I really cant stand sense anymore

Have you tried the CM9 ROM in development or the AOKP ROM over on Rootzwiki? They are both functional enough to be used as a daily driver.
Why do we need S-off? We can already do basically everything through recovery without it. Would it be nice to have, sure I guess, but definitely not needed.

Kernel source will be released. Could be soon, could be September. We don't know when. But it will be released. Once it is available we will have answers.

yea s-off isn't needed, but nice to have.
i've been following the cm9 thread, and it seems great but ive been using my camcorder almost non-stop and i'll miss it for sure

I saw on one of the threads for either MIUI or CM9 but I don't remember which that someone got the camcorder working? I have the file in my download folder on my phone but I haven't tried it yet. I'm just keeping it for if and when I decide to try out MIUI or CM9.

I loaded an unofficial CM9 Alpha 5 ROM on my North American HTC One X and the camera worked, although nowhere near as good as the camera app in the stock HOX software. Camcoder was flaky and crashed periodically. A video I posted on YouTube circa 4:50 has a demo of it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XPi8a5SvJvQ.
If interested, the build I loaded was the alpha5 in the thread "[ROM][WIP] Unofficial CM9 Port - Alpha 5" http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1688448. Beware of rapid battery drain if you choose to load this alpha5 build I recommend taking 30 minutes and reading through the thread prior to flashing this ROM for details.
Note, however, that this ROM is based off Android 4.0.4 (Ice Cream Sandwich), not 4.1 (Jelly Bean), so this discussion might be a little off topic for this thread

ICS OTA Update

Hi,
Earlier today I restored my Desire S to factory settings, expecting to receive the OTA update to ISC. However, although the update from 2.3.3 to 2.3.5 appeared, an update to ICS did not. How can I get the OTA update? My phone is unbranded.
Thanks in advance

That's because the update hasn't been released...yet.

Ah, OK. I was under the impression that it was released in June/July - that's what HTC's update timetable said, wasn't it?
Sent from my Nexus 7

Yep but it's been forwarded to sometime towards the end of this month. It will also depend on your carrier. If you want to be first to receive it your best bet will be through a custom ROM

OK, thanks for the information. I know I could use a custom ROM, but after I nearly bricked my phone attempting to port a Jelly Bean ROM from the Galaxy Nexus, I thought I should maybe go back to stock, for the time being at least. Once the Jelly Bean ROMs become more stable, I'll probably root again and get one of those.
Also, I've heard some people say that once I upgrade to ICS with HTC, I won't be able to root/S-OFF again. Is this true? If it is, I probably won't bother getting the OTA to ICS.

You attempted to port the JB ROM? Man if have that kind if skill, is it hard for you to root and install a ROM?

Have you tried using CM10? It is in alpha stage but it is pretty stable and most features work. Also it is super quick and smooth
Sent from my Desire S using xda app-developers app

No, actually, it isn't to hard for me to root my phone and run a custom ROM. I've been running custom ROMs on my Desire S for the best part of a year now.
@mzr92 No, I haven't tried Cyanogenmod 10. Since it was in alpha stage, I wasn't sure how stable it was. I might just try that out. Thanks for the suggestion.

Stability of all these JB Roms

I am running the latest version of ICS. I tried the CM10 rom but found that it was unstable and had a lot of things missing or not working compared to ICS. Anyway, with all the JB Roms popping up in the past few weeks,are there any out there that are better or more stable? I have been waiting for AT&T to release JB for HOC but as usual they are taking forever. Any advice is greatly appreciated!

Viper3.1 and it doesn't get much better than that. It's my opinion though. I would also suggest CM10.1. I loved it but I personally got an odd glitch where my screen would go black but the phone was still on, as were the capacitive buttons.
Anyone here is going to give you opinions. It's truly up to you to pick. The 2 I listed are great ROMS, stable and have awesome developers who stay on top of things.

I don't expect the AT&T version of JB to be substantially different (probably just more bloat and annoying AT&T branding all over the ROM, really) than any of the stock rooted Sense JB ROMs in Development, or custom ROMs based on those build. So flash one of those and be done with it.

In my opinion you're not going to find anything coming from AT&T as far as JB that's going to be better than the ROMS in development. If anything they are far better. Download a bunch, try them out and stick with the one you like best.

King Kang is super stable for me. Everything works.

King Kang has been the most stable I've tried. Pretty much every rom I've seen on here is livable though. I'm on CM10.1 now and I haven't had any real problems.

[Q] What is the most stable ROM?

I am selling my HTC One S to a phone noob (ordered a Nexus 4) and I just need a ROM that will have as little issues as possible and is the most stable. Preferably Jelly Bean but ICS will do too. Doesn't matter if it is Sense or AOSP. Just something he can't mess up and come crying about. Any ideas?

AW: [Q] What is the most stable ROM?
I would suggest you to install the stock JB ruu on this phone. So its totally stock like he bought it in a store so he doesnt have to complain if sth doesnt work.
The other Option would be trickdroid which is very stable and bugfree as well.

Is it possible to go back to bone stock? With locked boot loader and no root? Forgot to mention I have the T-Mobile US model.

CM10 (latest nightly) is the ROM to go to if you want stability, smoothness and AOSP look. CM10.1 is also good but it's not exactly as smooth as CM10 and stock JB e.g. in games.
But as he buyer might not be much technically oriented, I suggest stock JB. Search the forums. Here's a nice guide to doing it.
