Was just wondering if anyone knows any other good sites and if you've found/are running anything that you have got from another site.
Thanks.
Can get something from the i9100 forum and hellraise it. I'm running one from there that I just installed.
Thanks, but I was looking for roms that aren't from XDA.
RootzWiki, though its not very active

Rootzwiki is somewhat active on older phones but on newer ones its not. You can also try the theunlockr.com but i believe most of the roms come from xda.
Thanks for the replies guys.
Google is your friend.
Although, I think I would refrain from trying any, unless there were a large base of people who are not having issues.
Pay particular attention to the model numbers being used etc.
Of course, if bricking your phone is of no monetary concern, then by all means, go for it!
My 2 cents....
Thanks, but unfortunately google hasn't really turned up much.
Just curiosity, why don't you like ROMs from XDA?

i doubt its about likes or dislikes. he probably just wants to see what else is hiding out there.
I kind of doubt that there are really any other sites out there beside the ones already listed.Because YouTube videos and Google searches all point back here to XDA.

This is the exact reason why I wanted to find alternatives. I'm a bit of a flashaholic.
I understand how you feel.you can only hellraise n flash so many roms haha

Haven't even tried to hellraise any... dunno if I wanna get into that can of worms yet.
It's a cool thing to try out.it gives you a nice big selection of roms to flash from.I say give it a try you may in up liking it.

Yep exactly. Of course read the OP of Hellraiser thread and make sure your zip doesn't have bootloaders and whatnot. But yeah dude. Flash ROM, flash Hellraiser package, reboot. I highly recommend Illusion-xT for i9100. It is gorgeous with great battery life!

So kinda new here and have flashed every rom available for our I777 phones. Anybody else working on anything new? Think I posted in the right section right?

You can also flash the i9100 ROMs and use the hellraiser package.
I think we are in the lull before the storm. Once the full i9100 ICS source drops, and a port can be made for the i777, things will pick back up to a feverish pace.
Plus, what else is there to do? Everything I have tried is stable, smooth, and generally great. If themes is what you want try CM7/MIUI, but have hundreds of themes available.

I would flash some i9100 roms aka international SGS2. There are quite a few good ones. All you have to do is flash one of them and hellraise it and it will work most of the time. Start out in the Hellraiser thread and then check out the QA thread it gives some helpful info about not flashing roms with bootloaders and what not. AOSP (cm7/miui) based ROMs do not work with the Hellraiser.
ROMs are super-duper secret. You're obviously not in the loop.

someone may have flashed an international ROM, but here we can pretty much completely assure you that that person did NOT hellraise it. I think the hellraiser package has pretty much got it down well enough that there really shouldnt be any worry with it, fixes keyconfigs, kernel and some other things, so u dont need to worry much or wait for anything on that front anyway

+1 I'm waiting for official ICS for my Moto StarTac
Yeah, I may go back to Verizon so I can go to the best smartphone ever released - Kyocera 6035.
Pfft, you mean the HTC 8525 (TyTN).
First off, I'm not looking for an ETA and not complaining. These devs are working free of charge and I could not ask for anything else.
I just want to know what is holding our device back from getting ICS ROMS. The International GS2 i9100 is getting ICS ROM after ICS ROM being pumped out for it. Why is the i777 one of the few phones that just don't even have betas out for it.
If someone could clear this up, that would be great.
The kernel source code. This could have easily been answered by using the search function. Not flaming just a little helpful advice. Welcome to XDA great to have you. But hopefully we will eventually get source.

The biggest issue is that the Search button is broken on all of the ICS releases. Hopefully they will fix it soon and we can get some ROMs to play with

PS: Don't start another "Why the attitude?" thread! Why? THIS IS WHY!(New threads like this)
Oh man this thread makes me rage.
I recently rooted for the first time and I'm looking to find a ROM that isn't too much of an off-chute from the stock ROM but is also decent at conversing my battery life. I was thinking GB since ICS has that severe bug on the galaxy s2 1777
Oh boy you need a lot more searching and a lot more reading before you get any help.

Indeed, I'd start with looking through each of the ROMs out for ICS currently. as well as checking out Kernel tests

Please do yourself a favor and do some research before you even think about doing what you are thinking about doing.
Once you start reading and ask relevant questions, people will answer you better. Even if you haven't tried it yet, and you ask questions that occur only after having read about it, people will start pointing you in the right direction.

But yeah, click around, learn a thing and ask about that thing. If you show you are somewhat informed, you'll be helped. That's how I did it and I was helped tremendously.
Shostock is the very thing you're looking for. Stock with some stuff. Try it then try others if you want.
Then one day you too can be a jerk to people who ask easily answered questions.

Hey, I see you're from chicago. I'm in the NW Indiana area. What modem you using? I'm on KH7 and I have my wife on KK6 and they both run almost identical.

KH7 and KK6 are basically the same and run fine everywhere except the Loop and O'Hare, where the data doesn't work at all.
I recently tried out LC5 by accident and it turns out that works great in O'Hare and the Loop, but is very spotty everywhere else. I should probably go through the others but that would require a free weekday in the Loop.
I have task' aokp and run flawless... Never have a single issue..
Plus he thread is fun and have a lot of support to the questions that aren't on the OP (original post)

What ICS bug do you refer to?
If it's stock-like GB you're looking for, I've heard great things about Unnamed and UnOriginal.
OP, these threads are highly discouraged in this forum. I encourage those who think the OP does not deserve such flaming, please read more, you'll see that if you did, vs. threads or "which is best" threads are not allowed.
Btw, the person who posted the kernel tests thread, #1, that thread is I9100 and our I777s are different, #2, each person's I777 is different and reacts to different kernels differently, so that thread is practically useless to us.

Ok, thanks. I was going to try a couple odd ones soon, but haven't gotten around to it.
Just stick with your stock rom and run some 3rd party programs like Juice defender and SetCPU
GB - UnNamed
ICS - AOKP or CM9

I think that you can find your firmware on sammobile and flash it on Odin . but i dont think that flashing another modem will unlock your device , that can even cause damage to your device . Dont try to flash zip from another model in any situation

You don't need to downgrade your rom. You can flas a modem even if you don't have root. If you have a custom recovery than just flash the modem.

Better off to say Touchwiz sucks as opposed to 4.1.2 sucks. There are 2 developers that still work 4.1.2 and your going to come off real ungrateful for their efforts. There is not a thing wrong with their ROMs. You just have to know how to fine tune them to your needs. Don't bash them if you can't do it. Just don't run them.
Its not the ROM that bricked your phone

Those arent answers when people are asking questions. If anyone takes the time and reads everything than they wont have to ask questions but that isnt going to happen and thats why forums are created, to help and support and I know i've said this before to you on one of my posts. He asked about downgrading and i said that 4.1.2 sucks. Did i say that the developers or the after market roms suck? No I didn't. I've used several different roms and all the after market roms run much smoother that stock.

I have done nothing but try and help you, including coaching you on your ediquite here. With your clueless way of being vague, you are bad mouthing developers. We are trying to keep them here.
I wasn't the one who recently posted about running a Note 2 ROM on our device. No wonder you bricked yours.
