there isnt an official vibrant 2.3 realease
you can get 2.3 custom roms taken from i9000 in the dev section, read the ops properly so you dont break your phone

You can try Asgard 3.1 it is excellent, you will need to load the gingerbread bootloader 1st, then the Gingerbread rom. There is no official release as of today....... but Most of the 2.3.4 JVP roms are all awesome
Thanks man ur a life saver....i'll try out that rom thanks

To root on phone you can use z4 root or on a PC/Mac you can use superoneclick to root. For roms, most 2.2.1 roms and gingerbread roms are from the euro sgs but pretty much all of the straight 2.2 roms are good on t959 and great for stability. I like toxic crazy 8 with the clean and shiny theme but there are several good options.
If you really want gingerbread made for the t 959 then you'll want to go either cm7 or something based on cm7 but battery, stability, GPS and smoothness all seem best in my opinion on 2.2 roms.
Let me know any other questions
Hope I was helpful
thanks a lot mate.........but share some link for root and roms plz which guide me toward rooting and flashing.

Good Morning everyone (or afternoon or night)!
Yesterday i flashed CM7 for the first time ever (Never flashed nothing before, except TWRP which i did it like 2 days ago.). Flashed it through TWRP Recovery and had a problem but solved it (froze on CM7 Logo). But this morning i noticed i had another problem, no GSM! When i flashed it and booted into system i found it wierd that it didnt ask me for my PIN but i was waaaaay to sleepy to think about it. But thats not all, as I found that i didnt had GSM, I also noticed that i didnt have my SIM contacts listed.
So if any of you could help me with this i would really appreciate it, as i really need my GSM working!
Any kind of help is welcome! Even if it means Flashing another ROM. Just really need my GSM working for now!
- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=946354 <-- Where i downloaded CM7
- Before CM7 i had the 2.3.3 official update
PS: Yesterday when i had that freezing problem at CM7 Logo i flashed the patch mik mentioned on the FAQ's (see "Q: I flashed rom and GSM don't works. What's to do?"). It says that would fix that freezing problem and also would fix the no GSM problem but it didnt!
Thank you all in advance for all the help you might give!

You can restore something only if you backed it up. So if you made a backup of your old ROM go into recovery and hit restore. If not either flash a .zip ROM or use KDZ.
Good and bad news guys! i restored my 2.3.3 stock ROM and managed to get GSM again.(had to downgrade the baseband for 2.3.3 stock), that is the good thing!
The bad thing(not that bad i think i can manage to get it ) is that i wanted to flash a custom ROM but im not sure if i should do it because i thought CM7 was one of the best ROM's to flash and i was amazed by it at first! But that GSM thingy got me a bit mad and a bit insecure about doing it again. I wouldnt get mad and would have kept the ROM if i had solved the GSM problem but i didnt!
Any suggestions of what i should do? Any ROM's suggestions? (preferably with that awesomeee CRT off animation [yeah every one loves it!])
Ill wait for your replies! thank you very much for everything you done to help!

If u want to have CM7 by Mik you have to downgrade your baseband. Short way is using KDZ to flash old version of firmaware (v10a or similiar), then ROOT, install custom recovery and then flash CM7.
Well the only experience i have at rooting was by rooting my p500 with 2.3.3 official with superoneclick! I dont really know how to downgrade the firmware and root it on froyo! But if anyone could provide the way to do that i would really appreciate it!
Btw im sry if im asking too much, but i prefer the opinion and help of a more experienced person than just me finding something and boom! Bricked! But i also search even if i ask you guys something!

Read the entire guide, step by step!!!... Anyway it is pretty straightforward
BTW, remember to first install lg drivers on your pc... connect the phone via usb and disable LGE Virtual Modem drivers from device manager on windows,, --> this is extremely important to succeed!
My phone is ok again TakamineSubasa! i just needed an opinion on which ROM should i flash! I've done that guide and it went well! (for the 2.3.3 version! i think i messed up and used P500-v20G-baseband for CM7 [wrong one] and should have used P500-v10E-baseband). But ofc a stable ROM that doesnt have GSM problems :s
btw i was really disappointed with CM7 (or i just dont know nothing about it!). I used it all day (even though i had GSM) and i had no messaging widget, no market, and other things i dont remenber! If i flash it again is there a way to have those apps and widgets like normal stock ROM has?
Thank you very much for the help!

No market? U forgot a flash gapps. Other Widgets I dun think so.
Sent from my LG-P500 using XDA App
Yep, as terratrix, you must flash gapps in order to get the market on your phone and install everything you want....
Concerning abt stock widgets, CM7 does not include any stock lg crap... although you can install them later if you want, there are posts on how to install stock **** again but dunno where they are ...
btw, --> here you have the lastest gapps available: http://goo-inside.me/gapps/gapps-gb-20110828-signed.zip
for your security, flash this zip with Zip Signature Verification on in TWRP, to ensure that everything its going to be perfect
Thank you very much guys! ill probably flash sonygen but not sure yet! Need some opinions! if anyone is willing to give some i would appreciate!
Thanks for all the help!
Sonygen is pretty nice and fast. It's a themed cm7, so if you like the SE style go ahead and flash it.
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using Tapatalk
Awesome news! i decided to flash CM7 again! Did the tutorial terratrix provided right after i flashed it and GSM is working perfectly! (just dont know why i had to import my contacts to the phone! Aparentely CM7 doesnt read contacts that are in the SIM card! No biggie!)
Thank you so much for every help you provided guys!
Loving this forum!
I'm trying to put a better ROM on my wife's GT-I9100M I really just want something which much better battery life and speed for her... mostly battery life though.
With so many different kernels out there, I'm a little wary of installing something now, in case it'll brick the phone. Does it matter what kernel these roms are based on?
Her baseband is I9100MUGKG2
and her kernel is 2.6.35.7-I9100ZSKG2-CL361136 [email protected] #6
and build number is
GINGERBREAD.UGKG2
I'm sorry if I'm posting a redundant thread, but I've spent a few hours on here, and Have still no idea what get.

It's rooted, so that's done... I don't have to worry about bootloader or anything?
I'll grab what you have and see how she likes it, since it sounds like it's working for you.
Thanks!

PS. I got the Speedmod kernel, but where do you get Checksrom?
Same here: CheckROM v4 and latest version of Speedmod kernel and the battery life is around 2 days. Smooth, no FC's, no issues!

No no worries about the bootloader
just install Checks rom, and it comes with a kitchenapp and u can change the kernel to speedmod from within that.
BUT
make sure that the i9100M is compatible with the rom!
PS
if ive helped dont hesitate in saying thanks
Edit: my bad, just googled I9100M and found out its indenticle to the 19100 except in the name xD
so u shuld be all gd to flash, but make sure u backup before just in case.

Well. So far so good. She hasn't really noticed anything different. In spite of my backing things up with titanium she's still swearing at it and setting some of her stuff back up.
We'll see how it goes now for battery life. That'll be what she wants most. The regular stock had the phone dying within less than 10 hrs or standby.

How do you find the right rom ? You try out a bunch of roms until you find one that works well for you. If you think you're going to have the same experience as someone else with a given rom or kernel you're mistaken.

Hey ! I have a soft brick Prob can you help me out.
Heres the Prob: Phone recovered from soft brick through Odin (FIRMWARE=KI3). Flashed ChainFire's kernel for KI3. Added CheckRom v4 and my own rom to the external SD card. Got into recovery, Wiped everything including BatteryStats booted Check ROM. It boots up but as soon as it's up error msgs come (Force Close ones).
Need help in fixing! PM if you are willing to tell me ! Plz Reply!
Why are you hijacking this thread ???

+1 Pretty much nailed it. Won't know how good a rom is until you try it out yourself.
The problem is, not every rom for samsung GT 9100 seem to be the right ones... What I'm saying is, I can't just grab any ROM from this site and slap it in, it seems like they have to have the right kernel or combination of stuff to work. I don't want to soft brick it, so it would be nice to know exactly what would be safe for my phone.
There doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason to these roms.

Im currently running Jusada's ICS Final. Best rom I have tried. I have tried loads and loads of roms recently but always come back to this. I made a CWM backup of the 3 uk 2.3.3 rom but cant get the H3G baseband! looked everwhere for it. (even asked 3 for it).
To be honest I wouldn't expect 3 to update past this at all. Just flash any Euro 2.3.6 if you want pure stock. The only difference really (apart from a few tweaks) is the bloatware (Rubbish games/win cash etc).
Im going to stay on this ROM until official CM 7.2 (just to see what it like) and the unnoficial CM9 comes a bit more stable.
Got to ask, why do you want the official 3 rom back?

hi folks
Hi folks thank you for the replays i am after the stock rom because i have to send phone back to 3 as the camera is broke i need 2.3.5 or 2.3.6 not sure if i can update with 2.3.4 using kies i am using Cw 7.2
I've got the stock H3G 2.3.6 rom (GT-S5830_H3G_1_20111223114803.zip).
not sure how i can share it with anyone.
I'd be grateful for the 2.3.3, though as gps was far faster in the older version.
Hi you could put it on a torrent site p bay or demon thanks for any help
sorry, i'm not familiar with this.
i'll tell you how i got it though.
get this software : CheckFusDownloader_v2.1.exe
and use the following :
product code: GT-S5830OKAH3G
PDA: S5830XWKPY/
CSC: S5830H3GKP3/
Phone: S5830NEKP7
this will allow you to get the rom directly from the server that kies uses.
i've once spent almost one day to get this
Awesome!
