Help PLEASE - General Questions and Answers

Hello everyone,
I would like to start by saying I'm totally new to this world, so I ask that you hang in there with me. Ok
So I just rooted my Samsung sch-r820 (galaxy admire 4g) with metro pcs.
I want to update my software. I install clockworkmod but it seems not to be working.
I tried cyanmod but my device is unsupported. So my question is can i even update anything. Or am i stuck with gingerbread til i buy a new device.

By doing a quick Google search I couldn't find any development for this device here at XDA. So probably there won't be any CWM recovery/CyanogenMod ports for this model. Also don't try installing CWM recovery or CyanogenMod mentioned for other devices, as doing it so will brick your device.

I was wondering if I could use the Samsung admire info do you know?

Not sure what you meant by Samsung Admire Info?!
I know your device is Samsung Admire 4G, but what exactly do you want to modify in it? If you are looking for ICS ports, the chances for it will be quite less considering its not much popular device.

Yes i want ics

Samsung Admire, or Galaxy Admire ... both should be same.
Samsung Galaxy Admire has 800Mhz processor and Admire 4G has 1Ghz, so as there is a change in hardware most likely it won't work. You may need to port the ROM to Admire 4G in order for it to work.

I have no idea what port is or how to do it. Thank you for taking the time out and helping me.

Yeah, porting is something beyond the scope of what you've asked. Anyways if interested you can always have a look for Tutorials in XDA University, as there are tons of them. Good luck and have a nice day. :good:

There is currently no ROM porting ics to our phone. We do have plenty of great roms available, though, so feel free to spend some time digging around our forums and reading. This is how you become a not-newb.

Not possible at the moment. This would require kernel modification at the very least. This would be territory for the likes of Entropy512 and Adam Outler, etc.

If you want aosp/aokp then go to Verizon galaxy s3 original android development and compare the many roms. If it's touch wiz you want then go to Verizon galaxy s3 android development and compare the many roms in that thread. They are all a little different and it depends on what your looking for. The links to flash are right there on the 1st page of the op. To ask someone for best rom and link sounds a little lazy to me. What if someone sent you wrong link and you ended up bricking your phone. Wouldn't you like to do a little research and make sure your getting the right zip? Just my opinion but what do I know.

I know, some have tried the other roms for the other variants. but only wound up messing up their own tab. And the restore tab is for AT&T international version and even though it does work, it isn't all in English. The closest one is for Tmobile, but TMO doesn't have LTE, so you could kiss it goodbye. Probably why not many have tried it. It's a shame that the Dev's don't want to own one, I have dumped my rom also did a CWM backup of my tab. But since there is no one to work on getting us a JB rom, we have to wait for the update from AT&T, if they ever do it.
I'm sure at&t won't release anything soon

Regrettably I have to agree with you. Either way, this GT2 is 100% better than the Jetstream....
any roms yet for sgh-i497
Quick question..I have searched high and low for custom roms for my sgh-i497. Are we still waiting?
Thanks for the replies

I would also like to know this answer... I'm just starting my research on Rooting and installing a Custom ROM on my device.
I've found a few other sites that give you ROM's....
http://tips4droid.com/top-best-custom-rom-samsung-galaxy-tab-2-10-1/
http://www.thegalaxytabforum.com/index.php?/topic/16585-custom-rom-for-att-i497-p5113-solved/ Not sure if this is an Original ROM or not.
http://galaxytabhacks.com/galaxy-ta...-for-galaxy-tab-10-1-and-tab-2-android-4-2-2/
http://nasirtech.blogspot.com/2013/12/vlamj2-412-jb-official-rom-att-galaxy-tab2-10-1-sgh-i497.html
But I didn't know anything about what they were talking about in the above replies...I hope there are some ROM's as this Tab is constantly Freezing and slowing down... I hardly have anything on it and constantly keep clearing the Cache in the Recover Boot area... I was hoping a Root with a custom ROM would help me out.....
Anything new?
Figure this is so old that if nobody has done one by now, it never going to happen.
I don't think there's a custom rom for your device...
