try klin's klassic, i used that one before moving to cm7
how is cm7? I was hoping to use that but I read it wasn't very stable.
also, do you know if there's a workaround to send mms?

CM7 is far from ready for daily use and if you don't get proper backups you will have a hell of a time reverting back. Trust me I know, I'm still resolving some issues.
alright well im going to try out the KlassicRom, thanks for all the input!
lewa is pretty awesome and stable as well

lewa is based off CM7 so all the CM7 issues are still there, don't get me wrong it is nice but until deep sleep is fixed the battery life is still miserable (about a day max). Plus the newer CM7 (beta 2+) base is not for amateurs as it quite easy to screw yourself when trying to revert back.
hey OP what version of the player do you have (US or International)?
i have the US version.
Currently using Klassic's ROM and the Terrasilent kernal.
question
Hey guys im new to this so i have a question!
Ok so i want to get klin klassic rom (the latest one) on my galaxy player 4! do i just flash his rom, or is there a special kernal i have to download first!
any info is apreciated!

you can flash it using Odin on the computer it comes with Klin's old kernal but you should also flash the terrasilent kernal I have r5 with terrasilent kernal only problem is Bluetooth doesn't work on r5 I'm also on 4.0 I'm on us check roms to see if their compatible with your region

flash GB bootloaders then you can flash any GB rom over whatever rom
theres ways to do it without the bootloaders but you'll get rainbow screen on boot and wont be able to see recovery
Flash using GB bootloader,it can fix rainbows and use any GB ROM

bootloaders 1st
cant flash straight to a GB rom from froyo without them
only rom i know of that can be is SH3.3, can flash that from froyo without them then flash whatever other GB rom you want through rom manager i think (i did this because i dont trust odin)
some have .tar files so you can flash them through odin to get to GB but voodoo sometimes messes up so you still need the bootloaders to go to recovery and disable it if it does
easiest way's to flash the bootloaders then just flash whatever GB over whatever
thanks again
i have flashed using gb boot loader
i am going to try Simply Honey 4.0 Revolution(JVQ GB 2.3.4) custom rom.

all GB roms are taken from i9000 because we dont have an official GB for our phones
dont know what its because of why calls dont work for some people, they worked for everyone on 2.3.3 i think
dont think radio works because there isnt any radio drivers for our phone so just uninstall it
video calling is there for the people that have put an FFC into their vibrant, it doesnt change anything
MIUI FTW
If you wanna flash a GB ROM trust me MIUI 1.29.11 is the way to go. You will be surprised how nice it is. Just give it a try.
P.S. I flashed it coming from a 2.2 ROM (trigger 3.3) without flashing bootloader. Just did the same old flashing process (wipe,wipe,wipe)
well,
i am on 2.3.4 and i want to reverse back to a 2.3 rom "Team Toxic "Crazy8".
so i do have to install old bootloaders according to them.
anyone got a idea how to do that ?
thanks

i came from bionix 131 was a great rom but get ready for bad assness
1. assuming you have cwm, flash cwm recovery, pick vibrant mtd, click yes then chose clockworkmod 2.x
2. go to download rom, go to cyanogen nightlies and pick perhaps the highest build number unless it has really bad remarks.
3. do the usual clear cache, clear dalv, flash it, fix permissions
let it boot and sit for a few and hold on to your panties...lol
nope gps does not work. but from what i remember bionix gps was pretty spotty as well
dont forget to wipe data, anyways reading some of the posts. simply galaxy is cool, love the blue but cm7 is waaaaay smoother and highly customizable. and you dont need to flash gb bootloaders. and if you want to go back once you flashed gb loaders, your gonna gave to get froyo boots back, from what i remember. cm7 has made it too easy to flash, was kind of tricky in the beginning, but did it for the fun of it
Hello everyone! I recently began contemplating rooting and doing custom installs for my 959, for something fresh and better performing, also seems my music player has been acting up recently and am really interested in something new along with voodoo sound... If necessary anymore ? Thing is, there are so many ways to root, and there are so many custom roms??? I don't know where to start or what to look for? I just want one of the better, stable, new custom roms available as of this date for the t-959. I search but seems there's no definitive answer? Just a lot of roms haha?
Also when downloading a rom, do I have to download like 30-40-50 kernels and add them? I see all these roms, kernels and update??? Is it just download a rom and that's it, am I making more of it than it should be?
I'm just really noob'ish, really confused, and really, really nervous! I can't afford to brick this phone, but I really want something new.
Thanks for reading, and I apologize for some of the silly questions I have asked .
I fell in love with rom flashing as it greatly improves performance and gives phone a new look. Especially since Vibrant isn't supported anymore.. I can't live without voodoo goodies=) Definitely improves sound.
Negative side of custom roms is it takes up some of your time.. Finding a rom you like, tweaking it.. Not too mention you might brick you phone.
If you decide so.. the most important thing is always read OP...
I used superoneclick to root. I recommend Bionix 1.3.1 as a first rom very stable though a bit outdated. After playing around with the rom, you can try different 2.2 kernels and modems. Then go on to gingerbread roms.=)
Extremely easy. I'd suggest reading some of my guides in my signature.
I would Odin
Then download a ROM (nothing else needed)
Download my option b update.zip
Move both to internal sd
Reboot into recovery
Click reinstall packages
Choose to install zip from sd, select ROM, reboot.

Thank you trailblazer and thanks s15....
Any roms you would recommend s15? I appreciate the starting rom you gave me Trail, I'm looking for something a little more up to date I suppose? I was looking at cm7 or Simply Honey 5.0 Revolution(JVR GB 2.3.4)? Something with voodoo already in it? Something pretty stable with a bit of features. Maybe a lil less lag than stock 2.2, better performance, audio and battery life as well?
Thanks so much again both!
cm7 in nightlies still, though seem pretty stable, i havent tried for a while. Lots of features though dont think battery too great.
Simply Honey is a good one, stable, lots of features, great developer support.
I'm currently on RevolutionRom 2.3.4, stable and smooth for me, only bad is itfreezes like once or twice a day. More of a sgs2 look which i like. Good battery.
FYI Flashing Gingerbread roms, you will need to flash gingerbread bootloaders to remove rainbows and see recovery ( theres a post on it)
Also GPS isn't stable on gingerbread.

I think I'm gonna try the simply honey one or wait till he does a final release?, as for the bootloaders, what do I do or go to there? Also for the kernels, do I need to download one for simply honey? Should I download one for it?
I seen some roms or kernel can improve wifi and signal? Is that true, if so point me in that direction hahaha...
Thanks so much bro by the way.
search for Vibrant gingerbread bootloader, it's flashable via odin..simply honey roms comes with bullet kernel & there's Simply Honey Talon Kernel build by simone201 =)
Thanks man, do you mind if I ask which one you would recommend (Odin or Clockwork?)... I stumbled upon this youtube how to called "Custom ROM installation tutorial for the T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S (Vibrant)", and was just wondering if I can apply all his methods to SH 5.0? Sorry tried to link it but cannot due to my post count... Oh and when I'm done, how should I proceed with the new talon kernel?
Also if there's a new release of honey or the final release, say I installed this one... Do I have to do it all over again? Same wit kernels? Finally, do I need to revert my unrooted stock 2.2 froyo back to a previous version before gingerbread or any of this?
Thanks for your reply. I'm actually feeling like it's almost go time with this rom and kernel haha. Really thanks heaps!
D bootloader is only flashable by odin..you can read the OP for simply honey, what you need is all in there in d development area..flash kernel that works 4ur phone u decide on that wether bullet or talon..you can use sgs kernel flasher to switch bet the two..

One last question before I do this, I seen SH 5.1, but I seen it was for the i9000? Which one should be used? or the one you may recommend? Im looking for voodoo sound controls.
Thanks
EDIT:
Nevermind I read it will be up tomorrow... gonna do 5.1, this is pretty exciting as long as I don't screw anything up hahaha
i reverted back to stock firmware via odin and one click rooted my phone, factory wiped all data and now I remember after I rooted my phone I had unzipped file in my sd card and it told me that i can just delete it after I was done, well i did and then watched a video on clockwork that said not to delete it?
EDIT: Nevermind I fixed it, I just unrooted and rooted again...
So sorry for being a pain, I know you guys have better things to do.
3 questions and this thread is done... thanks for the help...
1. Does the market work on simply honey? Like can go in and search and download it like usual?
2. should I use odin to install 5.1 or cw?
3. how does the kb5 work? is that like default or do i have to flash it?
Thanks a million in advance!

There are no stable ICS releases for SGS2. You can find two ICS roms, one leaked from Sammy and another is CM9.
Though alpha CM9 is pretty stable .. check out the thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1410400
Learn how to restore before flashing an unfinished Beta rom on my phone would be my first step .

CM9 is good, but it sounds like it's high risk for you at the moment - it's not all plain sailing if and when you get there.
Why not wait a few weeks for a more stable version.
I would say your better off waiting mate, maybe flash vertumus's ics theme until a stable version is out.

You can try the new AOKP build. Vibrantmtd is once supported again instructions for installing the rom are listed in the thread...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2208126.
As far as GPS is concerned it is either a hit or miss...might work or it might not. Unfortunately I am not able to test it since my vibrant is bricked
But I can tell you that AOKP is an excellent rom I been using it for nearly a year now since I bought my Galaxy Nexus. It is far much better than ICS passion in every aspect. Never had any problems with it.
As for the kernel I can't really say which one I would recommend since I honestly can't ever recall flashing a kernel for my vibrant...I've always used the kernels that are included in the ROM(S).
Just remember to backup your apps...because you will lose them in the process since this is not an update...it is more of an upgrade(4.0.3 to 4.2.2).
Good luck and feel free to ask any more questions.

The ROM will update you straight to 4.2.2. I don't think you need to be on 4.1 to update or any other version for that matter. Just flash the ROM through recovery and you should be good to go. Good luck.

Finally i had time to do the upgarde. Unfortunately i tried to flash the Rom but it says eror.... Before the step of Flashing the rom, in the guide has been written that i have to wipe system... but i didn't find this option.... What should i do now ?
I pulled my old Vibrant out of a box and thought I'd try to run a newer version on android on it, but I haven't been about to make heads or tails of the development forum. After 3+ hours of fiddling and 3 or 4 programs downloaded, I'm at a loss. The phone currently has Bali kernel and Bionix-V FishmanMod which I loaded on it in 2011 or 2012 and have no recollection of what I did. :silly:
I think my questions are:
Do I need to revert to stock? Because odin refuses to recognize my phone in download mode. It sees it fine when it is booted normally.
Otherwise, what do I need to do to update the kernel and put kit kat on the phone?
If there's anybody out there, thanks and I tried really really hard and I'm just really confused.
I think it would be best for you to go back to stock first.
1. Make sure that your drivers are properly installed
2. Try different usb ports, reboot computer/phone, different usb cable if Odin won't recognise the phone.
Honestly, going back to stock won't help much. Install a JB rom and or kernel and from there install a kitkat kernel then rom. In that order. Make sure you wipe data and cache completely to make sure there isn't any problems.

ICS Kiss does have speed issues. I very much want to update but don't want to go through the plug and chug of finding one I like. If someone can recommend a stable, vanilla, something or other, I'd appreciate it.
