Need help with IM app

Hi everyone, I'm new on these forums and after looking through the forums, was unable to find a solution or even anyone else who seems to be having the same problem as me.
My problem: I recently rooted my mytouch 3g 1.2 and flashed to the latest cyanogen rom. The OS was noticably faster but I also noticed that my IM app was nowhere to be found. I am able to install apps with no problem and the OS is perfectly fine with the exception of the occasional lag. I currently have AIM installed but I prefer the stock IM app. Can anyone advise me on what I can do to regain my stock IM app? Thanks in advance.
Can anyone help? :\
think you need to be a bit more specific then "stock im"
only im I know that is stock for most windows mobiles
is messenger
It's a MyTouch. Android phone. And I'm talking about the stock IM app in 1.6.

[Q] Stock rom, custom kernal that allows vids to work ??

hi all long time lurker here, first i want to thank all the devs for their their time and effort that they have put in to bring out custom roms and tweaks for all of us. with that being said.
Ive flashed several roms to my infuse, but ive found i like stock the best. ive been running 2.3.6 for a while now, unrooted , plan jane and i like it. I want to root it and install a custom kernel but in the past ive found that doing so usually breaks the feature to watch flash videos. Are there any custom Kernels that allow flash to work and work well?
I dont want to go to a custom rom, their just to much for me, i just need the basic interface of the phone and the ability to watch videos to kill time.
I want a custom ker so i can add tweaks to optimize the performance of my device while not overcrowding it with garbage.
Any help pointing me in the proper direction is appreciated

[Q] ROM Options for GT-P5113 (U.S., Wifi-only)?

Hello, I'm trying to setup my friend's new Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 GT-P5113. The device is running 4.0.4 IMM76D.P5113UEBLH3 stock. It's very laggy and not very stable. I'm looking for a new ROM to flash and I thought the stock JellyBean OTA leak would be a good option, but apparently it's for the 3G version (even though say P5113 in the thread ). What is the best TouchWiz-based ROM I can flash on this device that will solve the lag and stability issues? I know that CM or AOKP would probably be much smoother, but my friend enjoys the multi-window functionality built into TouchWiz. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Hi. You can already flash this kernel, you will get rid of the lags.
Or if you want to upgrade to 4.1.1, you can follow this guide.
There's also the cyanogen ROM option, but then you would lose touchwiz and all samsung's drivers and the applications like gallery, mini-apps etc.

[Q] Very Old Newbie Help

Hi
I'm not very old... but I am old lolm but also, Ive had the TF101 since just after launch and for most of that time it has sat gathering disk only being used when visiting friends as internet access rather than use their computers, I tend to use my phone or a 7" tablet but I want to take it abroad and also upgrade the o/s from 4.1.1 and also run xbmc... or Kodi , the last upgrade was the Cyanogen mod, but when ive charged it today its really slow and I think it may be best to just do a complete wipe and update.
Can anyone give me any ideas on whats best, i'll only be using it for web browsing and media (xbmc) .. is it still up to the job?
Thanks
I suggest you update to the latest TWRP recovery by sidneyk first: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2434422
There are two actively developed kitkat ROMs for TF101: Unofficial OmniROM by sidneyk and KatKiss by timduru. I personally use KatKiss and it's buttery smooth, but I haven't tried OmniROM so I can't really compare the two. You could try both and decide for yourself which suits you best.
OmniROM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2584265
KatKiss: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2592890
I have run both. I am currently on Omni. It runs smoother on my tf101 than KatKiss. I also have no need for features like multiwindow.
Both are great options!
I prefer TWRP over any other recovery I have tried.

[Q] Please suggest a stable and fluid ROM for a Dad!!

I want to root this Tab for my Dad 'cause he is tired of its sluggishness with all the samsung bloatware....so I want to install a stable ROM (preferably 4.4.4 or lollipop if its usable yet) which he can use as a daily driver. Since he works, I won't get much time with his Tab to experiment it to know for myself.
Can you please suggest 2-3 ROMs that I can try tonight?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Slim, Dhollmen or Markos CM11......Only try 4.4.4 Roms (which those all are) They are all very stable. Follow OP directions and you;ll be good to go.
CM11 running 4.4.4 is your best bet, just plain android with no bloat, no bells, no whistles.

+1 for Slim, ran SlimKat for ages and now on SlimLP which rocks for Alpha.
Kernel?
I'm in a similar position as OP!
I need to install a ROM on my dad's P3100 as well, so I took your suggestions and plan to install Slimkat
Question is, What is the best suitable Kernel I should install with it?
Stock? or are there any custom kernels made for it?
Thanks in advance!
If you want Lollipop, I reccommend @Android-Andi's SLimLP. It is very stable (at least for me).
If stability is a factor for a user that doesn't want to troubleshoot the tablet every time they go to use it stay away from lollipop, these dinosaur tabs can't handle lollipop, kitkat is as good as it gets.
