[q] what is mods in android - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello guys, just randomly seen this term in a thread which I have never had any experience with it before. So can anyone tell me what is mods and how can I tell if it's installed on a custom ROM ?
Thanks

mod. As in modification. You install .zip's etc. Or a modded application. Custom roms are mods of AOSP or stock samsung rom.

Mods as in guys that wield big hammer to bad posters ???
Soon to be built in to all custom roms and browsers .
Modification to change something .

Help with Flashed ROM [Wanamlite v10.6]

Hi to all,
Recently rooted my stock SGS2 i9000, and flashed it with the above rom.
Couple of noob questions though.
How to access the rom's settings?
ie, i dont want the battery percentage icon showing?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thxs.
Hi, that rom is based on the stock samsung firmware, it doesn't really have many tweakable options like that, go with a AOKP rom if you want a load of options to tweak and play with.

Thxs for the quick reply.
Do you have any favourite roms that would suit my needs (tweakable).

If you have the i9000 instead of the i9100, best to check out their section on xda. Not a good idea to flash i9100 roms on the i9000.

[Q] Stock theme on custom ROM

Hi i have just bought a galaxy s3 and i would like to put it a custom rom but i like the original samsung theme. I have seen a lot of customs rom on the forum but i feel kind of lost and i dont know which one should i choose, any reccomendation, suggestion or something else?
Thanks

It's funny, because everyone wants to change the stock theme to AOSP.
To keep the original theme, flash one of the Samsung based ROMS (Android development subforum), they'll have the version letters in the title (the current version is LL5)
Many roms have a stock theme .
Read the roms description first .

A clue a rom beginning with o has a stock theme and so do many others .

Basic Customisation Questions

Hello to I9100 section,
first of all i'm not complete new in customise android smartphons, but in a few days i get my first i9100 and the section is really big and confusing so i want to ask some questions.
My previous smartphones were: i9003 and i9070.
At the i9100 i want to use a stock rom as far as possible, but i want to customise some things.
The things i want to change are:
- rooting with cwm
- 14 toggle mod
- extended power menu
- percentage battery
- custom boot animation
- crt mod
- maybe if possible with stock rom a battery bar
- some tweaks like center clock and other status bar notifications.
At my search in the section i found a lot of stuff (mostly from resurrection remix), my question:
Can i use this mods on a stock rooted sansung rom with 4.1.2?
I think things like percentage battery can be done by me using uot but most of the mods i have to install,
i'm a little but unsure if the work on "stock" rotted samsung rom.
Maybe someone can giv me some tips?
I dont want to use a custom rom again cause my experiences with them weren't always good unfortunatly :/

I agree. I understand your (OP) point about custom roms that 'don't always work', but if you install a rom based on official Samsung roms, it's almost the same as stock, but with some modifications. However, I would go for Neatrom, as its development is more active than Wanamlite, but that's up to yourself.

If you want stock ICS use Alliance Rom V4.1 or if you want stock JB use Neatrom lite V4
Neatromlite + http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1999623
Almost all mods you mentioned are in AOI-X-TremeXD
Or may be you can have all these mods and more mods here: ALL IN ONE MOD by ICS_XD.:good:

[Q] MIUI v5 for the S3 - which flavour?

Greetings, fellow modders
I'm looking for a MIUI v5 ROM to flash onto my gf's S3 (it's the international version and on 4.1.1 stock firmware). She's bored with TouchWiz and I think she would enjoy MIUI because of the superior and far better looking UI.
Is there a particular ROM you would recommend? I'd go for the official one since it' built from source, but I see many reports of a "sudden death bug", could someone tell me what it is (does th phone simply lock-up or reboot?)?
I'm not a fan of ported ROMs and those with a bazillion tweaks added, but if you'd suggest one as the best choice, I'd be willing to give a shot
(I'm on the xda app and I couldn't find an S3 Q&A sub-forum, sorry for missing it if there is one :/ )
there are not so many MIUI roms for Galaxys3, hence u should try them yourself and make ur own opinion.
:highfive:
You need to reset your XDA app it should show the Q&A forum .
What rom best rom posts are not allowed anyway .
Thread closed as its a best ROM thread.
