I've been toying with the idea of just downloading the Samsung update of 4.1.2 instead of CM10.1. My Captivate is running CM10.1, but only because 2.3.5 was the latest version of Android available. Should I go with 4.1.2 just to see if I like it first? I really like CyanogenMod, but will I be just as happy with 4.1.2? Will I still be able to use Kies even though my phone is already rooted and CWM is installed? All thoughts are appreciated!

Yeah, I read the stickies a few times but was unclear. Thanks for the tip. Guess I use continue to read the, over and over and figure it out on my own. I'll quit asking questions since I seem to not be getting and helpful answers. This is the same thing I did with my Captivate and I finally figured it out. Thanks anyway.

u can ask questions but you should do a little reading first lol
I've read both your posts in Q&A and sounds like your basically asking the the same thing like everyone has suggested you really need to read lots more before you wind up with expensive paper weight. I know because I've done it before when I started tinkering I thought I had read enough when in actually I read just enough to get in trouble and had no way out. So again when the more experience ones say read you might want to continue reading. Just my two cents

Thank you very much even though it was a disapointment you still helped. May I ask though, what rom and kernal are you running and how great and smooth is it? Im running something I flashed to get 2.3.something I dont remember and a kj1 kernal. Its not very smooth and I have to restart my phone atleast 4 times a day.
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda premium
I tend to bounce between VB Final and MIUI using the included kernal.
Just about everything I flash is good stuff. I'm downloading unnamed now. Try the one click gremlin remover posted in the dev section. Right now I'm using VB final and it's as smooth as I need it to be.
That said, none of this relates to ICS. Lol

Yes it does belong in Q&A, but I mean themes is better than putting it in development. Don't be an ass/troll to the new guy. If you can't answer his question or at least attempt, you don't have to reply. The mods can handle the misplaced posts (even though they probably tire of it).

AFAIK using Odin to go back to stock returns everything back to stock including bootloader. Or at least that's what I've read

Anybody want to bet how many threads will be started about it. I see 2 so far. I can't wait for the "JellyBean bricked my phone" threads and the ever-so-awesome, "Will I lose root if I update?" variety of threads..

I would like to know what type of battery life people are getting with the stock JB rom. I'm on the unofficial AOKP 4.2 and have had outstanding life @ 1d 20h 4m with a 45min bluetooth call without charging at 7% left! I don't do much in my phone so screen time is usually less than 25%. I can post a screen shot if there are any doubts, but the stock ICS rom gave me just as good performance. Still love my CM 10.1 and AOKP though. The dev's have done some outstanding work!
