I have an HTC Sensation 4G with LeeDroid ROM 4.0.1. I am looking for either an ICS ROM for the Sensation or the ICS gTalk app apk. I really hate having to use gTalk with the email address I registered the phone with, as I never use that address.
Also, I've downloaded InsertCoin ROM and another Sense Stock ROM (I cannot remember the name). I am using GO Launcher Ex and when I do a full wipe, flash the ROM, it works great- for about 30 minutes and then when I try to use one of GO Launcher's transition effects, the phone crashes and will not recover. It just boot loops. It's happened with two ROMs so far so I restored the backup of LeeDroid that I had in CWM. Anyone else have trouble with GO Launcher and stock Sense ROMs?
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks

Hello, I will be getting an Aria soon and was wanting to put the froyo rom on it. My question is, is it necessary to update the kernel and the radio or should the rom work fine without doing those?

The ROM includes those both so you should have no problem by just flashing a new ROM. I personally recommend you go for the FR008 Deodexed ROM.
Thanks, that is the ROM I am going to use.
I used Sense UI for about 6 months before I got fed up with it. I have CyanogenMod 6.1.1 Liberty on my Aria with the Gingerbread theme and LauncherPro as my default launcher. Love it. So much quicker, customizable, and efficient. Battery life has improved tremendously since switching to all this.
I like the look of HTC Sense
Hello. Is there any way to acquire the stock Gingerbread launcher, such as the one included with the new OMFGB ROM so that it can be used as the default in CM7? I absolutely hate ADW and Launcher Pro because they are slow and have always been troublesome to use (at least they have been for me). I loved ROMs like CommRom and Evil Fascination because of their launchers which I assume are stock Gingerbread but I can't possibly go back after CM7 and OMFGB is a step backwards from CM7 at this point (i.e. the sensors are broken and deep sleep seems to be an issue again).
I believe what you're looking for is Launcher2. IIRC there's a link to an apk in the CM7 thread in the development section.
Ok so Launcher2 was not located in the CM7 thread but I did find a flashable zip file and it works perfectly! Thank you for the help!

So I see this has been posted before in Q&A with no answer, so I will post it again here. The stock email.apk that comes with SGS-II is awesome. That is the only thing stopping me from loading another ROM. With that said the question is can I install that email.apk on the other ROMs and it will work.
Thanks
Most ROMs either don't touch this, or remove it and you can just put it back.
Hi all, so I've rooted by phone using the amazing one click script and have managed to unlock the phone using sgs unlock tool but sgs2 could not find my unlock code.
Before attempting this I backed up my EFS folder.
Its been a while since i've flashed anything (a few years ago on my old old htc hero, had a desire hd since that which I didn't feel the need to flash at the time) and Now I have my SGS2 which came locked on the orange UK network.
Not amazed with the colour scheme and much preferred the blue battery etc of the virgin simfree sgs2 I had previously lol. It appears to have lots of orange bloatware present on the ROM aswell as annoying boot animation which i'd like to remove.
I do quite like the signal boost app idea although not sure how well it works as not had chance to try it!
I've added Go Launcher and a nice ICS theme on there to play with and a HTC sense theme but not overly impressed with go launcher and it seems to stop my search button function from functioning for some reason. I've got plenty of apps installed and configured although one thing that has annoyed me is being able to remove googlemail and gtalk from the social hub program as having google account sync on, I get 2 notifications about my emails.
*#1234# has provided me with the following details if anyone can decipher it. I'm actually using a t-mobile network card at present.

Whats the latest best stock ROM in peoples opinions? How do I remove orange bloatware via adb and is it possible to modify the orange boot screen? Alternatively... so I just wipe and flash a new stock simfree rom to start with?
Just looked at ICS Domincation with Soulbound, the theme looks very nice... whats the overall opinion on the ROM from majority of people? Should I switch from the stock rom optins possibly? .
ICS is a leaked buggy test build it has not been released by Samsung .
You have KI3 firmware android 2.3.5
2.3.6 is the next step up .
Stock firmware .

I would recommend flashing hyperdroid (personal favorite) v5 final if you want to use ics domination.
Most themes won't work on odexed roms like the totally stock Samsung ones. You would need a deodexed custom rom.
To freeze bloatware or remove it I would use titanium backup or Gemini app manager (this also manages auto runs)
When installing a new rom you will need to wipe data, so use titanium backup to backup user app data and apps only, SMS backup+ to backup sms's and sync your contacts to Google.
Your internal and external SD cards won't be wiped but always backup stuff you can't afford to lose.

Hi,
I have put the latest ICS leak on my SGS2 which funny enough I find better and more stable than the official XXLPQ.
The only things I miss are the stock ICS apps such as the ICS calendar, stock Email for Exchange, stock dialer/people apps etc ... but I also kind of like Touchwizz launcher and would like to keep it.
I have downloaded the latest gapps but is it safe to flash these over a Samsung ROM and would it bring the stock ICS apps that I am after?
I have searched on the forum and found few threads about stock apps but not really what I am after.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
Anyone can help for this?
I am trying to get the Email app from the CM9 ROM installed onto my LP3 stock Samsung ICS.
I have tried to copy Email.apk and Exchange.apk to /system/app but that doesn't work, the app is not visible under settings/applications...
I would love to get the stock ICS apps (sms, contacts, email, agenda) on the Samsung ROM (LP3) which I find very stable
