I'm looking forward to the cm7 Rom. Just wondering how there are so many other Roms already released how come the Cyanogen Rom is proving to be so difficult?
I'm not mocking the hacksung guys, I know they are doing a lot of good work.

Because the CM build will be very different from the stock samsung ROMS.
A lot of the ROMS available right now are very similar to stock with only a few minor tweaks.
Thats the short and simple answer.
I was thinking that I was just curious.
Hopefully it'll be out soon enough

that depends on the user. seems to be between villain(which comes with villain tweaks), cognitive and litening and a cpl of others that I dont remember offhand..
Then theres the never ending supply of 'Roms' that are basically just themes, with the odd tweak that some other dev created.
I didnt mention cm7 purely because its not released yet.
I'm using Listening at the minute with the tw launcher.
Found adw a bit clunky and I like the Sammy calander widget.
Is the cognition Rom a wipe and flash or can I use odin?

Hi i just installed this rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1319459
its all good, but i was just watching a video of someone using ICS and he had a few more new features which i dont have, so just wondering why they are missing from this rom. for example, the app drawer on my phone is exactly the same as before (on miks CM7), but this guys was way better.
Because you're using cm7 with an ice cream sandwich theme.
oh, lol i thought it was an ICS rom.
so i didnt even need to install this different rom, i could have just kept my old one and put a different theme on it.
lol, its mentioned in the screens on the 1st post of dax's ROM's thread that its based on CM7..
I did say its ICCS not ICS, i havent touch the sources yet... Andy is working on ICS...
Sent from my Nexus One using Tapatalk
i dont really know what ICCS is lol, and so CM7 is built from all the android sources before 4.0 ? so for ICS it will be the next CM ?
But whatever it is, it runs really nice and looks great. however it introduced a problem where when i am charging the phone, when the screen times out, it cant come back on instantly, seems to take a while. also a camera problem
unfortunate because its the smoothest and best looking rom ive had runnin yet.
i might have to go back to miks cm7 due to this, its pretty annoying.
thanks anyway, ur a champ.

Its a i9100 rom. Can u provide a link to a flashable stock zip of it?
Stock SGS2 Sammy builds are always buttery smooth.
just letting people know that the newest GB is the smoothest. I have it done, hellraised, added 14 toggle, bln, newest DD, removed some bloat. I will try and upload a almost stock version in development soon.
Its in general section of 1900 forum. Have to use mobile Odin or Odin to flash.. Then hellraise it. Then add modem. Etc....

Not sure but I might try with Mobile Odin or maybe the new Flash-o-holics tool...man you gotta love the Devs we have, making it fun even to flash a stock ROM!

That thread says CWM, and the instructions say install from recovery.
I'm bored, I'll give this a shot.
Reading the thread, it seems like you can flash it via CWM and then apply Hellraiser afterwards.
In my opinion, that release is too new to properly pass judgement on it. It can often take a few weeks before bugs in a firmware build become clearly evident.
Look at what happened with UCKK6 - two ROM developers rebased on it, even though after a few more weeks it became clear it is one of the worst bases that one could possibly pick. This fact wasn't clear when they made their decision because it was too new.
That said: So far, XWKL1 seems pretty solid.

This is early, but this release might suffer from the infamous AOS bug in regards to wifi aswell. Did a test by resetting my CPU Spy and checking in on it at 20 mins and the phone is only entering deep sleep 89% of the time. Also behind display, "Android OS" has the second highest battery consumption.
So what exactly is so much smoother about it?

With all the kernels and releases coming out, what is the general consensus on when ICS ROMs will be considered stable or feature-complete?
Was the recent i777 leak what developers were looking for to complete/optimize ICS ROMs? Or are we still waiting on i777 kernel source? Is Entropy's kernel a long-term solution?
Just wondering when to flash.
Thanks forum.

But I remember being schooled about "oh we need i777 kernel source before we get ICS" whenever I inquired. We don't seem to have i777 source, but i9000 is good enough?
Let me rephrase my question, how much better will the current ROMs get when i777 kernel source is released? Will we see an AOSP ROM?

I have yet to find a single bug running Shoman's rom. Your mileage may vary, read the thread et cetera but if you're asking when to flash I'd just go for it.
+1 on Shoman's ICS rom. It has operated flawlessly for me.
I9100 source is what we needed. We're only a little bit behind I9100 now. I9100 ICS has some nasty stability problems, I'm hoping to fix them before releasing DD for ICS. I'm working with gokhanmoral and a few others on it, it's not I777 unique.

SHOstock ICS rom is amazingly stable and already in 5th release with more on the way
CM9 now has nightly builds for I-777. I fell in love with CM7 and am really liking the official CM9 nighty builds so far.
ICS leak
The ICS i777 leak, which has been bundled as a cwm zip without bootloaders
is working good for me with only a few minor bugs
alarms not working
wifi only scans after toggle
battery stats graph crashes
I don't know how this compares to i9100, the ICS leak is the first I've tried.
It's stable enough for me to not look back and stick with ICS
I'd definitely recommend SHOstock2, it's head and shoulders above the ATT leak in a lot of ways and I haven't had a single crash or noticed any bugs since installing RC4.

I agree with the uclc2 leak, I had the following issues: Titanium Backup would not install any of my games+data and 1/2 my apps would not install. From what I could tell were any of the apps and games that I had moved over to sd card would not be restored under the leak. Than all of a sudden, my phone had locked up after getting most of my apps *from the batch restore missing apps and data* and quit even getting service when wifi was on and try to turn off wifi = lockup/reboot. Really weird after 4 hours of running it. Under SHOstock2 Rc4 everything restored properly and even upgrading to rc5 which gave back the multi toggle options and running very stable. Zero issue with it.
HTH,

Been running the AOKP build from Ported Dev thread with no major problems. Only problem is that when I am listening to music and a text or notification comes in, the music volume is lowered by 2 notches, then when I try to turn it up it goes by about 3 notches. Its a balancing act to get the volume back. Thats my only grippe. I havent had much time to read so I dont know if the newer ICS roms have fixed that issue.
It seems like all the ROMs have a few little glitches. Is there an ICS ROM that can record video at 1080p? Or connect to a 5GHz AP? Or has HDMI/MHL functionality?
I'm switching to the first one that does all 3. I'd be really excited if we can get NFC too.

Yea I now see why the mods are so close-happy in this sub-forum. I'm sorry, I didn't mean to invoke a flood of ROM-reviews by starting this thread. All I had wanted was a general outlook of ROM-stability coming from official leaks and releases.

Uhm. That's not entirely true. The offical ICS isn't useless. If it's release, so will the source. That means better cooked roms as well as OC kernels.

Couldnt of said it better
I'm just waiting for the official release. I think it well be soon enough, don't worry. Like stated above. Once out i would let it settle into the dev section for a week or two to mature, then flash a custom ROM based off the official ics. Of course i would be running the official ics for a little bit until the custom roms mature. Just my own plan.

Why wait? There are a couple that are remarkably mature and stable now. My daily driver is CM9. I'm tempted to try the Hybrid. Anything made by or if he is involved FJ is a quality product. Screw the official update crap. They can keep it. All I want is the official source released, then, well, the sky is the limit.
ive been waiting for official since i bought this thing..two days ago i said f%$k it...20 minutes later i was rooted and ROMed..i flashed ICS Objection..and i love it ... its so smooth and clean!!!

I don't give a piss about OCing. Anyone calling ics slow hasn't flashed the roms available for the note.
Ocing this phone will not benefit me in ANY way whatsoever. Already score 3800-4200 in quadrant on this rom. Have full premium suite. Run ANY game at a rate that is super smooth. Get enough battery life to have 4.5 h of screen on with 24h unplugged.
Pray tell, how the hell will official ics help me? It won't.
Quit trying to sound cool and say "oh but ocing!" "oh but this or that!"
Fact is, with current roms the note is hitting close to its maximum potential and there isn't much else to improve.
Actually flash what's currently available before you comment on what the note "will be". It's not going to get much better.

There is a lot more you can do with a kernel besides overclocking after the source is released. It will benefit each of us. I say ICS is useless without the kernel source. It may be good now for the people that have updated to the ICS roms but it will be great after the scource is released. You can say what you but there will be no comparison to the roms now and the roms after getting the source even without overclocking. You must have no idea what your talking about or maybe your just not familiar with custom linux based kernels. The custom kernels is where its at.

With the current rom features, things can marginally improve but,for the most part, aren't going to change much.

All I'll say is if you can't watch a video or play games without your phone stuttering, exchange it.
When I was on GB without OC no problems. And now that I'm on ICS, still no problems. My buddy's note is the same way.
