ZACHARiAS_ thank you,let me try it .
im currently using a 2.1 custom rom with sense. sense has a couple feautures that i like. but ive been keen to try cronos ginger 2.3 with super kernel
lemme know what you've tried.
kudos
Hey, i am using Elelinux 2.8 which is a fantastic room... hardly any force closes, great battery life and also.. its pretty nippy.. Angry Birds the game runs pretty neatly on it to.
u can even try the new 2.3 rom. sense based. it is a htc salsa rom ported to our hero n trust me it works just fine. few issues, but they don't matter, at least to me

I would rather say Salsasense has great potential but it doesn't work fine yet. Besides the force closes, it's pretty laggy when there is anything calculated in background and apps need more time to start. If that would get fixed, it would be a great rom.
Also have a think about why you want to do this. You're entering a world of geek, and the only ROM that's guaranteed not to have problems is the stock one. That said, you should have had an OTA update taking you at least to 2.1...
Go for the cronos gingerbread roms. They are stable and fast. And get enough updates.

Cronos is nice. but if you want speed do not go for any GB roms. but go for eclair or froyo. GB is just a little to heavy..

have you tried Cronos Hero latest? its running really smooth for me with cpu at 672mhz. battery lasts 2 days with normal use
Rom
I use Elelinux-7.1-Hero-v3.6 Android 2.3.7 and I am really happy. Everythings works, it is really fast and I got up to 2 days battery life (I use fly mode at night)
2.3.7 LiGux (Coopoui) (RC2.0) is also very fast and nicely themed by Lirasina.

Is there anyway or is it possible to install Canada version T959 v2.3.3 on T-Mobile T959?
I am using TeamWiskey NextGen v2 with Voodoo enable. How can I do it if possible.

Samsung Galaxy S Fascinate 4G SGH-T959 (Android 2.3.3)
Not as is. It's not the same as the Tmo Vibrant. It's basically the same as the i9000 I believe so you may as well install one of the i9000 ports we have here.
Would this be an indicator that the T-Mobile 3G Vibrant will be getting the upgrade?

Probably not... The Samsung Captivate gets Gingerbread 2.3.5 via leak but doesn't look like T-Mobile and Samsung are going to shine that light this way.

That sucks!! I would like to switch to GB, but I can not live with the crappy 12 hour battery life on the current ROMs. With the 2.2 & 2.2.1 ROMs, I get around 20 hours.

Not with any GB ROM I have tried. I currently get 16 hour of use, going from 100% down to 50%. If I could get that with any GB ROM, let me know what is the best ROM and any settings I would need to setup.

I have build that version to work on Vibrant.
It works but is Official build no root no nothing, clean install with telus kernel and all the staff.
You need GB bootloader though.
Are you interested?
Its 233mb that why i am asking, i have 1024kb upload speed on perfect conditions so not easy to upload it and in the time new builds have 2.3.7

I disagree, I have been running MIUI for about a month now and I get a good day or so before charging; and that's with moderate usage of the phone
If your going to install it your gonna want to flash the sgh-t959D (fascinate 3g+) version. Your going to hard brick if you flash the 4g version.

It is the OTA 2.3.3 sgh-t959D (fascinate 3g+) non rooted just as it is bootloader removed etc so no bricks
If you want to root it you must go in fascinate thread and find the root for it, its there follow that it wll work because everything on this are stock.

If it's a 4G phone, why does it have the same name as our vibrant SGH-T959???
Its not 4G.
Is close relative to Vibrant but not brothers
Hey devs, why there's not a lot of froyo rom? I think that in a lot of things it s better than gingerbread.. It is sooo smoooooth for example... Or.. Why not an oc kernel for it? If you think gingerbread' s better than froyo, try flash it and use STOCK rom.. You' ll see that it s better than some custom rom based on gingerbread...

I don't see it happening. It seems that we're forced to use Gingerbread, you and I are the only "crazy" around here that actually prefered Froyo over GB

this isnt true
i just switched back to GB today because of both
i came from that Beta4 posted
i certaintly got force closes on program i dont get force closes on in GB
and what i HATE, is that in ICS, when an app force closes, it vibrates terrtible, then FREEZES for a few second, then closes
at least on GB when something forces closes it just does it right away lol
I don't have any issues with ics no force closes or anything lol except for hybrid other that they are fine .I'm running team perfections rom and its so smooth and fast very stable :beer:

Hey guys, I'm tired of going up and down the development section looking for some good stock rom kernels.
Does anyone know any good ones? I just tried out the battery extender one RC2.2 and got some reboot issues.
I'm using stocklite V6. I'm trying to see if I can get rid of the little data connection problem I have. Not switching roms because this is the only one I've used that gets me a full 12 hrs on 3G.
Well i guess the CF-ROOT is only the stable one bro. Haven't seen any other stable version in progress for stock.

Ummm no no no buddy. Rom depends A LOT. How the hell do I get 12hrs on 3G with Stocklite but I never got past 5 hrs on ANY CM rom I've used? Scripts I know don't do anything because I've tried almost every one out there and they all just give the placebo effect.
