Hello thanks for reply
Can you send me the link to well stable CM7 or ICS rom?also are they different(I'm really dumb in this)?And method to flash.

I'm sorry man but your basically asking me to give you every piece of information necessary in order to flash a custom ROM. All of this information can be found in the stickies of the various G2X forums. It is apparent that you are not quite knowledgeable enough yet for me to suggest that you flash your phone. I suggest reading the stickies and learning everything there is to know about flashing this phone. All of the information is available to you here on this forum. I will however recommend CM7 as it is a stable and newb friendly ROM to start with. I would download the latest weekly at get.cm . As far as flashing methods are concerned you need to use Clockwork Mod Recovery. There are many threads about it and a bundle of information dedicated to CWM Recovery in the stickies of this forum. Please read them.

there's no such thing as stable. You want stable? Stick to 2.3.4.

CM7 is 2.3.4 (or 2.3.3, depending) GB and is absolutely stable. No reason or advantage to staying stock with this device unless blue tooth phone audio is a necessity.

Latest CM7 is 2.3.7... I'm using the March 2013 version.

well gee. Why would i want bluetooth phone audio? Maybe so i can use my bluetooth headset for calls and not just music?
if it's missing something or something is broken.. IT IS NOT STABLE.

CM7 is absolutely stable as Pain said, and he is right. If you think CM7 is not stable go look up stable in the dictionary. CM7 is not perfect, but very much stable. I also believe its only a baseband issue where CM7 has the Bluetooth issue (old baseband works fine, new one doesn't).

Yeah, Idk why I said that lol, I was thinking about the baseband differences from 2.3.3 and 2.3.4, not the android versions =x
and Eve, it all depends on what you recognize as stable. I don't use nor do I wish to use blue tooth functions for calling purposes. So for me not having that option does not subtract from the "stability" of CM7. I am still able to use bluetooth for media purposes which I rarely do anyway. CM7 offers plenty of customization and options for your phone that you cannot possibly have if it is stock. For a first time user coming from stock software, CM7 will make you feel like you have a brand new device!

[Q] Advice

I need advice on which build to download of ICS? I had the original Cyanogenmod9 but the music and camera features were too buggy. I am having trouble finding the updated build for it. I also need the latest GAPP files as well. Can you someone help me out?
There's a few different threads on this. You need to READ, your previous two posts in this forum were useless as well, had you read then you wouldn't have needed to post.
There's plenty out there, but one that I don't recommend for now is EaglesBlood. It's a great first build, but it still has its bugs.

Some recommendations
You can find a link to the 2/15 ics gapps in this thread:
x0xHELLx0x's ROM Guide - G2X tweaks / mods / apps
On the ICS ROM's I recommend Hellfire Sandwich v1.2. Have been using this as a daily driver for a little while and no problems. Look here:
HellFire Sandwich v 1.2 p999 4.03(Facebook Sync )22512
One other suggestion, please learn to to use the search functions. The links above are very easy to find.
PartzMan2
Phone: rooted G2x
ROM: Hellfire Phoenix v1.2
OC: 1200Mhz

Ya same here, loving the hard work our devs put out to make ics more stable every day. But I just can't get rid of this Hellfire Phoenix rom, its been an unforgettably stable (perfect) rom since the beginning.
Really greatful to doniccq too since he taught xohellox to dev for the g2x, and his eaglesblood rom is equally as great.

Many ICS roms are pretty stable and practically everything works.
I would suggest you look into uni-yuma-porn and remICS-UX .. those are my faves.
CM10 is absolutely amazing of course.. you can't beat the jelly beans
Gps works althought it causes a bit of lag when used, which would be a problem if you use it often. It's up to you really, what best fits your personal use

For a rock solid GB Rom you can't go wrong with Emancipation. ICS Yuma-uni-Porn is nice. Both have solid working BT/GPS/Wi-fi

I don't think it matters...but don't hold me to that one issue you may have come across is rainbow recovery (discoloration or static like lines) which indicates you need GB boot loaders. But since you got official GB through Samsung Kies you should already have them (that's how I got mine)...Buuttttt!! Do you have root?

My last phone was rooted ( on froyo from super one click ) but ive been reading that doesnt work well with gb. Any tips on easy rooter?

If that and superoneclick don't work for you, you may have to flash a pack through Odin that will give you root + cwm

Thanks. Could you provide links for getting the ROMS you recommend? When I go to the Cyanogen site, for example, they don't list the Infuse as a supported phone. So which one do you use to get the CM10?
Looking at the uni-yuma-porn it says to flash the Rom, then flash the GAPPS, but no clue on what GAPPS is or how to flash it.
You won't find it up in the cyanogenmod site. Our phone is not supported officially by them, but it has been developed unofficially. It works just as well as those official devices since it is build from the same repo.
All roms I mentioned are found right here on xda under infuse android development.
Gapps stands for google apps which includes the play store and many other apps such as the setup when you first boot your phone. They are often linked in every Rom that requires you flash them.

I believe the "flash gapps" is just the OP not updated. The early builds of uniporn the gapps had to be flashed separately but I believe they are included now

Same between odin cwm gapss it fets confusing so ur not alone but thanks ill try to root flash tonight hopefully

Just checking up on what everything is.
1. Cyanogen is an android custom firmware. -
2. aokp is an android custom rom base
3. porting simply changing the coding to fit from a similiar device to another
4. All the gb/ics/jb custom.roms.mainly run off altered and tailored versions of these 2.
5. odin used to flash and get a recovery in case of bricking.
6. clockworkmod (cwm) similar used for recovery.
So in essence from base of cyan firmware and aokp rom people make alterations and build platforms ex changing kernels, drivers, and cosmetics.
Hummm.... Believe im getting it..correct me if im wrong

Last time just tried MIUI and I can´t get the UI of ICS, Don´t remember what kind of version tired of MIUI though
Roms with aroma installers give you more options for you to customize the installation. Some frequent options are Gapps, kernels, additional apps and whatever the Chef decides to include.

Stable OS replacement for stock froyo?

I have been using froyo since I bought the phone. I have been resistant to replacing it with a custom ROM because that always led me down a road of instability on past phones but from what I see of ICS, it looks like a very good upgrade.
That being said, the current jelly beans upgrade still has bugs (namely gps) so I was wondering if there are any previous OS replacements of gingerbread or is that are stable and fully functional?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using xda premium
"gingerbread or ICS"
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using xda premium
Most stable and completely functional would be GB roms like Emancipation or Aeon.
ICS is also quite stable and functional, except for the 720 video recording being choppy, but if it is something you don't use then this could be the one for you. I would recommend cm9, uniyumaporn or remICS-ux
Sent from my sweet and buttery Infuse
most stable and smooth would be stock samsung gingerbread. but cm9 is also a very good choice(smoother than stock actually but no mhl). and gapps in ics are much improved. voice search in particular is way more usable.
I would suggest Aeon for stability.
There are still a handful of bugs on CM9 and CM10. Nothing that stops us early adopters...
if GPS were fixed JB
For stability I loved Emann. Then switched to uniporn until cm10 got GPS up and running. From my experience, as of now Scotts cm10 8/8 build with 7/26 gapps is running perfect for me. I haven't moved to the 8/10 build yet because I don't have use for the mtd partitioning as of yet. I've always had the mind set of don't change a running system. If new features come out in a later build I will definitely update to it. But right now my phone is running super smooth. With working GPS
Sent from my SGH-I997 using xda app-developers app
Don't go JB for at least a couple months. The builds are unstable and they come frequently.
I would go for Entropy CM9 as even if a new build is released you can just flash it on top with no wipe (keep your apps/settings)

Go to the development threads and seek your stable rom, stability is up to what you do with your device.
As these threads are way too similar to "best" rom threads, and they always become arguments over what rom is best/stable - This thread is closed.

[Q] Which JB rom is the most stable and what radio should I use?

Hey,
my friend just bought a skyrocket and I will be rooting it for him.
Is there a fairly "stable" CM10 rom or JB rom?
and which radio am I supposed to use with it?
thank you
Save you the trouble because this will be locked.
In the SR community our Mods don't allow these sorts of questions since it leads to trolls and flaming.
In other words, I'm not allowed to answer your question but can advise you in trying different ROMs and seeing what your friend would like.

Superlite CM10+Superlite Gapps was really good when I tried it. I'm actually going to install it again since I'm still tinkering with mine.
Only downside I noticed, and it's probably some easy fix I missed, in GL benchmark on egypt 2.1, ICS CM9 was 52fps, JB CM10 SL was 45fps.

[Q] Roms and flashing

So I have a few questions. I guess you can call me a novice at this. I have flashed Roms before just put like 4 on my phone and nandroid back up each one to test later.
My question is what does flashing Radios and Kernels do?
I flashed a radio on my inspire once and messed it up.
Also I need some help on flashing CM10 or jellybean ROMS. I wanna try jelly bean and cm 10 out but know nothing about gapps and I don't want a ROM I will have to update weekly. Will I have to with those roms?

You only flash daily to stay on the bleeding edge. Besides, a few days ago CM added an updater which you can tell it how often you want to be notified about an "update". (Weekly, monthly, only stable builds, etc..)
Gapps = Google's proprietary apps like Play Store, Gmail, etc. Can't legally put those into CM due to legal reasons. If you Google "jb gapps", I'm positive you will find what you are looking for .

We can't really give our opinions on the rom because different people will always think different things, as far as my say goes it is an impressive piece of work.
