Can someone give a guide on changing boot logo in ICS for the Samsung galaxy tab 7 plus? I've searched hi and low for it but couldn't find it here. I was using honeycomb and was able to do it with a guide here.

I had the same question, but as far as i know you need a kernel that allow custom bootanimation in ICS
"if" you are using a stock rooted firmware, in case of true, then we still have to figure out to change how to change/create qmg (which i think it's a propietary (expensive) format)
in case of false (meaning you are using custom firmware) try looking in the forum for bootanimation.zip and they it works
I'm using a GT-P6210 (Stock ICS rooted) so I cannot provide more accurate data
P.S: Any other person with more experience in the subject that can provide additional info is welcome here

Ultimately what I am trying to accomplish is to install SlimBean ICS on my friends Froyo Galaxy. (I am a Motorola Guy)
From my understanding you need to go to Ginger first. Easy enough, use Kies.
Next I need to install CM, this is where I am getting lost. Do I need to install 7 (GB) before I can install 9 (ICS)?
How do I install CM on this device? Totally lost because there are so many extra steps.
Lastly there is install SlimBean once CM is installed which is easy enough via CWM.
First question is, are you using a Galaxy or Galaxy S 4G? They're different.
Second, skip KIES, use a one-click. Flash once, reboot, Linda, Flash with bootloaders.
Then you can move on to the fun of ICS.
Please remove the battery from the phone and verify that the model for the phone is either
SGH-T959V
or
SGH-T959W
Those are the only phones the files on this forum are meant for! Reply with the model here so we can direct you to the right forum if your friend's phone is different than the Galaxy S 4G

This should get you on GB and rooted with a custom recovery. I believe at this point you can just flash slim bean ICS.
Always make sure you have another ROM you can flash to if the one you want doesn't work. Also make sure you have a backup

dont you just hate it when Samsung has so many names for a single device?
anyways i was hoping someone could help me out
i purchased this phone recently samsung GT i8552,
i cant seem to find any custom ROMS anywhere over the internet or this forum.
believe me i used all types of search queries.
is somebody working on a custom ROM or should i try and learn how to make one?
and lastly i cant seem to understand why a quad core phone struggles with 720p HD video playback .
is it possible to remedy that by flashing a custom ROM?
thank you

Device too new?
I've been looking for custom ROMs for the i8552 this week. I think the device is too new to have custom ROMs (released May 2013), and has not elicited the level of marketing attention as the S4, S3 LTE from Samsung.
I sure hope that changes though. I chose this device over the Galaxy Express (i8730) for the mere fact that everything almost being equal, the Galaxy i8552 (or Grand Quattro as it's called in some markets) has a quad-core processor. It'd be a waste if no devs hacked up a ROM for this great value phone.
i think all users of this device should come together and form a thread.after enough users are there we can request xda for a forum..
I was wondering if a custom will allow this device to play hd videos smoothly.
if yes, then ill try building my own rom. Cuz I believe the adreno 203 gpu is atleast capable of 720p playback.
also, is it possible to decode the video using the cpu? That might make 1080p playback possible
thanks

upgraded it to leaked firmware 4.2.2 and downloaded the Gennxt ROM but the problem is when i try to install it through CWM it says installation aborted can any1 plzzz help me out with this.
Developers, give it a shot..!
Please don't make me regret for buying this phone. I only bought it because i thought that it's development will go on forever unlike its competitors Micromax A116 and XOLO Q1000.
Samsung provides the source code right? The other manufacturer's don't provide it, so development is limited.
Also, Samsung has a good service here(India) then it's counterparts.

How do we vote for getting new forum for our device?
Hi everybody,
This is my first thread in XDA Developers website, I'm an Android developer and I love stock Android. I have a rooted S3 and I would like to flash a stock Android rom on it for the first time. I found out the following thread which has the stock Android rom from the Google edition Galaxy S4 (★★★ [ROM][JB4.2.2] StockDroid v6 [16/07][I9505GUEUAMFD] ★★★), I would like to download and flash it to my S3, can I do it?
If not, can anyone suggest a good stock Android rom that I can flash to my S3.
Thanks and regards
Amjad Abu Saa

Yes, I am a developer, but that doesn't mean I know everything, I'm good in developing apps, but I'm not good with flashing and custom roms and all these things.
I'm trying to learn these things from this forums, that's why I joined today.

Your phone has to be rooted to install any os on it. I could be wrong but my android device required it
Well to start your phone was never rooted so its not a "re-root" or anything like that. You just need to simply root your phone & install a custom recovery. Im sure you can find those instructions googling or here on xda
Sent from my Nexus 5 using xda app-developers app
Ide recommend a stock rom like cleanrom and I think there are a few on xda.
Until you get used to recovery and the other aspects of rooting. It gets a little complex when you first start down this path. Be careful and always follow all instructions.

The best rom is the one YOU like best. Flash and find out.
We all have different needs and tastes....its a silly question to ask others to decide what's best for you.

It is your tab so you have to do a little testing to find the one that you like the best.
IMO, S.E.A.L. with the blackhawk kernel and CWM works wonderful for me.

For some reason this device never got the attention that others did. As such all rooms are based off stock. Your best bet is to root it and install Titanium Backup. Then remove all the boatware with it.
I'm running Rocket Tab Rom on mine and have been happy with it.

Hi,
Is there anyway to flash this rom but to stay woth the same stock Theme?
The device is gonna be used with a non-tech person.

I see no real difference from stock. This is not like a Cyanogenmod build, it still has the look of Touch wiz. Mainly it just has the Samsung apps removed. I have noticed a great improvement in both performance and battery life with the Rocket Tab ROM.

My advice is until there's more options.....root, get titanium backup and freeze a crapload of bloat...especially all the Samsung stuff, greenify and battery and smoothness are as good as it gets I think.
