i want to have a Froyo or more likely the th Ginger on my Vibrant
But i don't have a skills on how to do it
I know there are threads out there but it confuses me because there are so many version of Froyo in xda
I want to have the most stable Froyo/ginger in my vibrant, I also bought a front facing camera for my vibrant because i use Fring app a lot but i heard you need a special froyo
Please can you put a step by step process on how to install froyo/ginger
yes you can call me a noob
Not to burst your bubbles but you r about to get flamed for posting in the dev section. Look in the bible section and start reading.

where is the bible section? sorry i'm new here but created this account long time ago
My suggestion is not to touch your phone. If you don't have the knowhow to do these things to your phone, then don't. A $500 paperweight sucks ass. Trust me, I've been there and done that.
Go to Teamwhiskey.com and read the guides section. That should get you going....

It's the very FIRST PINNED thread of this forum. Please read/search before posting. And post in the right forum too.
Check out my two part video series on going from completely stock to a custom ROM. I showcase Team Whiskeys Nero v3 w/voodoo. But, Nearly any other ROM can be inserted in place of nero. Here's a link to my thread I started over in the Vibrant Q&A section with the videos.Hope this helps! BTW try not to be too antsy to get your flash a rom on your phone, Be patient =]

I agree completely. If he's already aware there's a lot of different froyo roms on xda, then he's probably been in the threads and looked around. If he doesn't posess the general computer knowledge to be able to do it by the information already provided in this forum, I would also recommend not doing it.

I think that was the most helpful suggestion yet.
How much did the front facing camera cost? A Nexus S wasn't much more than a Vibrant last time I checked, and it already has the front cam and gingerbread.

Questions or Problems Should Not Be Posted in the Development Forum
Please Post in the Correct Forums and Read THIS
Moving to Q&A
sorry admins
Well, I think we all remember what it was like being new to ROMS and flashing. I certainly could have used some advice
The only ICS based rom out is an alpha some bugs are present in it however. Link below, they've cancelled development, until CM9. Full description on the website.
www.sgs2ics.com
If you like a ROM with some nice tweaks and great battery life then I would check out ANDROIDMEDA. Thats what I'm using, very happy with it. Might be in the other 'Original Development' forum.
Hope it helps

Omega XT v7.0 for me.They also got ICS skinned versions and in the screen shot i still have 26% battery left.

I think the main problem with such threads is that they usually get closed down by the admins because it all comes down to personal preference. Well that is what they say before they lock them.
They advise users to experiment to find what works for them. Seriously, I've seen about 3 of them closed in the last week.
BTW, I use checkrom. Very good and easy to customise with its kitchen app. Give it s go...it has it all.

I am running paradoid android... and i installed nitro touchdown and I was configuring my email account and now my phone randomly turned off and just black screen and vibrates? any ideas
So i think the nitro thing may have been a coincidence it seems to have been a battery issue. I bought some supposed OEM samsung spare batteries for my note. Model number on them are EB615268VU where the original is EB615268VA putting the original back in i can boot right away the oem i bought from mobilefun.com wont turn on I had been using it for a better part of the day. Anyone have any similiar experiences?

Well I guess this answers the other reason people post questions here, people with the answers don't read the other sections.

Post in the correct section, if unsure check the stickies for guidelines.
Hi there
I am struggling to find some info regarding the stock messaging app. Does this app lag scrolling up and down through conversations? This is the problem I have, you can see the screen tearing while you scroll slowly up and down, which is horrible and no matter if I try to do a factory reset (using kies or flashing firmware with odin) the issue will not get fixed. I think Jellybean has broken this app.
Does everyone think the same? I am 90 percent sure that this did not happen on ICS? please heeelllpp

You have to use another app. The stock one is laggy and long to open. Like the dialer.

So what, you got a problem with that? tell me a reason why not to post it on general. this does not involve any rom, apps or anything specific just the phone itself.

yes, I do. The reason is that posting questions in general is against the rules, and people who understand what Q&A stands for post questions here.

Well go and complain to moderators then because I have always used general sections for anything else not related to dev or bug reporting and never had a problem..
Now go and find something useful to do instead of crying mama..god.
I just wanted to discuss the issue regarding the ics and jellybean messaging.

I understand.
I do agree that the ICS messaging works faster than that of JB's. It is a stock thing, so I believe there is no fix yet? Tsk
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
So you did notice the ics app faster and smoother. I was really confused because there were 2 updates and I couldn't find out which one messed it up. I don't think there is a fix yet. I only asked Samsung and they told me to call the S3 support but I didn't.
I do believe there are going to be more updates for the S3 even another version of Android which hopefully will fix it. I did ask a few people but theu said their messaging app worked fine but I think they didn't notice what I meant or they wouldn't care too much.
You can install jkays framework on stock odexed Rom and then with his deluxe settings app (paid) you can lock dialler and contacts in memory,.......regarding the tearing whilst scrolling, this nearly always happens when you have an accumulation of too many messages I keep my inbox pretty clean and never experience any tearing

Yeah whatever..you have done your job won a trophy and all. That's what moderators are here for. If you don't have anything useful to post then don't post your trolling messages.
Slaphead: I am talking about a few mesaages not a huge list; I have tried a lot of things which will never work. Unfortunately have to live with it until Samsung releases an update I think they must be aware of this? I wonder if any of the developers around here knows what is the issue and if anyone has implemented a fix on any other roms.
Try this...go developer options and check "force gpu rendering"
and that's why xda is the way it is..noobs don't read the rules
