Haven't been here for a while... just bought a t959v .. build vuvkj6 .. off of craigslist. Used to own the phone when it originally came out..it's been a few years but I bought this one for nostalgic/backup/jogging purposes.. I have the Note2 for my normal phone. SO.... anyway I really want Jelly bean and gps for runtastic.. or running gps software , wifi isn't important because I have a good 3g+connection where I'm at . I'm familiar with rooting/flashing/odin'ing but if someone could give me some quick tips so I don't have to read for hours. I'm just hoping there is an Odin tar I can run to get root and have file systems in correct order for the newer aokp/slimblean type roms out there. ... any info will help. THanks!

Not gonna happen. No JB ROMs have working GPS. It's being worked on though. CM9 is pretty damn stable and you can get GPS to work well on it with some effort. Search for the AGPS Patch in the dev section. Also search for [Guides]Fresh out of box in the general section. That should give you all you need and more.

Does anybody know how to get 3g or wifi working on this new ics based rom ?
im waiting till they can actually get 3g and wifi working, glad they atleast got cm9 up and running
Sent from my Transformer Prime TF201 using xda premium
well i tried a framework swap but no luck it booted but just sat on the ICS boot ani. for ever. oh well it was worth a shot, maybe another framework might work ???
..
what about adding the 3g libraries from the stock rom ? This was something they were doing on a Samsung Intercept over at SDX developers to get service working so i was just pushing idea's to try & help out anyway i can for the development of ICS.

The development thread for ICS is here, built ROMs should not be posted anywhere yet since it's very alpha stage and there's no point in generating more questions than finding answers right now.

Proper solutions need to be put into the source code, not just mix & match pre-built frameworks & binaries.
ok will do, I just like to play with this stuff but need guidance on some stuff.
I have been checking their tweeter and their page wich is called Android 4.0 ice cream sandwich / the officila motorola blog...... ok the point is that they have been saying that they will soon add more news on ICS support for other devices. Guess What !!!! that page is changing and the previous info is gone, the only remains are the comments. I hope this means they are uploading the new info and support fo the atrix 2 will be confirmed
YAY! Good news!
I wish they said: "Meh... we decided to unlock bootloaders once and for ever"

Just keep checking through cheesecake, to get some "leaked" alpha/beta versions that way... Stop depending on Moto to get you an official anything, look how long it took them to fix all the issues with 2.3.5 when the bionic already had it for several months, and the razr which was released one month after our phone was released with 2.3.7. It is real important to check ALL servers at least once daily, EVERYONE needs to do this, to catch these updates, as they do not stay up very long... once we have that, then lfaber06 and I can work our magic on it, and get us some "stable" ICS leaked ROMs.
Also don't install anything from cheesecake, just post it someplace and let lfaber06 and I know, where we can grab it, and pull it apart.
Okay Jim i will be glad to help, i am new in this android stuff and currently waiting my unlocked atrix 2 as i live in Colombia and need the bands opened. Once i get my baby i´ll gladly help to get some alpha or beta ICS with the cheesecake method.
As I´m a newbie i´ll have to read and instruct myself in android before trying anything in my phone.

There is a ton of info in here.... I have been one of about 15 or so pioneers of this phone, and one of our first devs in here, so we are all here to help you.

Okay i have been reading as i said. its really the A2 that bad without a Custom Rom?, should i flash the custom ROM immediatly or is the stock worth a try?

If you're looking for pre-tweaked build.props, overclock, a little bit more customization, and/or debloat, go custom. Nothing wrong with stock though, imo. I have stock 2.3.6 rooted, uninstalled the bloat, flashed a themed systemui, and use GoLauncher. Works fine, great battery life and performance.

The current ROMs are all based off of stock right now, so just try out the bone stock for a while and see what you think... since I do so much dev work, I am always working on and testing some new ROM, so I am not a good basis.
Hi everyone,
Althought i just have one post here , i been using this forum almost every day from the time i register for the first time...
Now i have got my Tab Plus, and i was disapointed about the "NO ICS YET" for this device.
I am no expert on android, but i want to ask something... can you use an HC kernel on ICS???
If so are we able to use that kernel with the HC wireless driver on and ICS release?
What about some developer boards from samsung? i have been looking at odroid but it runs a broadcom wireless card....
does anyone know if there is a diffrent manufactor that by miracle would have an atheros wireless card?
the CM porting is going well as i can see... lets bring shame on samasung developers, lets bring out ICS before they do... ahahahahh ( i mean an fully working ICS )
I know that is not an easy task!!!
NOTE: IF THIS TOPIC IS OUT OF PLACE PLEASE MOVE IT TO THE CORRECT ONE.
Thank you
Dude, if u decide to help, just try it by yourself, i think our first and only dev for porting cm9 *aorth* is doing everything possible to kick samsungs ass :thumbup:

OK..first step
Reading the OP of the ROM you want to try.. follow from there..
Really though.. a little more info would be helpful..
What version are you currently on, rooted, know how to restore a soft brick if need be, bank and routing number, etc..
Its powered by Jellybeaned AOKP!

I'm running Miui 2.1 I believe . And it is rooted .
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1658725 this is the one I want but I need step by step on how to do it witith what I have now
now i am not the most experienced on here and there is a lot that i am not sure how to do, but i have managed to get myself out of some tight spots before. maybe i am not the person for advice, but then again maybe someone with same experience level is not such a bad idea.
three things i look for....
1. the past- how old is the ROM you are looking at? if its too old, you may not have the support.
2. the present- even if you decide on an older ROM, i go to the last page and start reading backwards. this gives me an idea as to the most recent problems that exist and whether or not they are getting fixed.
3. the future- there is a lot of new development going on with ICS and now Jelly Bean. these operating systems may be the present for some other phones, but it is the future for the Infuse. some amazing young minds who are pulling off some rapid development.
for me, if the OP seems a little too complicated for me, i dont bother. cant go wrong with the Super Everything Thread.
i personally have not used MIUI, simply because the directions were, lets say, a little iffy for me.
i have had a lot of luck with anything Paranoid Android, CM10, YumaPorn and now the Cypher ROM. there are some other GB based ROMS too and all these you seem to get great support with.
so good luck, to me its like buying a car, first thing you need to figure out is what you are looking to get out of it and does it have the options you want.
i hope i was of some help and made some sense

Since it looks like you want to go to a JellyBean rom, and you're on Froyo or Gingerbread (Not sure which MIUI 2.1 used...), then perhaps these steps will help you:
How To Flash JB
CWM 5.x comes in JB, I believe... Its the Blue CWM that gives you the "rainbow" distortion if you don't have GB Bootloaders...
Make sure that you are downloading all files needed and following all the instructions one by one and if you cant do it for any reason dont risk it. heres a good jb rom that i am running.

If possible, I'm willing to donate $100 or more to a developer that is willing to cook up a Jellybean 4.2.1 or 4.2.2 custom rom for the VM Samsung Galaxy Victory 4G LTE. Possibly an AOKP rom. I'm currently running cmbaughman's PACMAN rom atm and I love it. So if it is possible, $100 donation goes to the first runner up.

Why dont you just port one from galaxy s3 they are basically the same phone. let me know how it goes.

work in progress ... updated 2 days ago...
It's being worked on. The Galaxy S3 (d2) and the Victory (goghspr) are similar, but not exactly the same. The display is different, and there are not any other devices I can find with the same display as the goghspr. WIFI is not the same, BT is not the same, etc. There is already a booting CM-10 for the goghspr, but I stopped work on it to move to CM-10.1. The link you provided is to the post of a guy I'm also working with, g60madman. Give us time. I'm working on the kernel when I can (I'm disabled and have a new painful injury to deal with). The apexqtmo guys have been very helpful and are allowing me to dig through their work to get some stuff for the goghspr/goghvmu kernel. I already have cm-10.1 building, but it won't boot until I get the drivers ported. Create thread with the device name and show the generation of interest as often as possible. I've already requested a dedicated forum, but there needs to be a real NEED for it before we can get it. Cheers and out!
need that 4.2 rom!

Thanks for the support. There is not a forum on XDA for this device. There are two on androidforums. I have ported cwm and twrp and have released a faster kernel and some other junk too. I think others have some stuff there too. Hit my github link and you'll see some repos and forks for other guys basing off my work. g60madman just patched our kernel up and he's setting up for cm-10.1 for the goghvmo. Again, take a look. We're legit. My time is limited during school break and i am disabled so progress goes in spurts. Cheers and out!
yup found it

Maybe this will help:
http://www.oudhitsquad.com/android/Samsung/SPH-L300/Mod/recovery/TWRP-2.5.tar
Remember, uncheck auto-reboot. Once flash is finished, pull USB cable and battery. Replace battery and boot directly into recovery using VOLUP+POWER until blue letters are seen in upper left corner. Release buttons. That should get you going. Use goomanager to update to TWRP 2.6
