Hi,
I see all kinds of roms like Wanam, Vk etc that have call recording features. Even latest roms like LPF have this. Would it be possible to use such feature for a stock LPF rom? Tried to search the forum, but all threads i found are for older types of roms

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 .

I'm having some success with the latest LP6 samsung leaked ICS rom
I'm interested in looking at the stock message, contacts, music, gallery etc app to see how they compare to samsung's variants.
I'm rooted -- other than find a rom with them already included, where would I find these apps?
Any problems with having both installed concurrently? (say samsung contacts and stock contacts).?
As far as I know, its not as easy as just copying the apks over, if you want to try out AOSP, your best bet is to try CM9 (but remember its alpha/beta quality).
Ah yes, that makes sense. Thanks
may try CM9 when more stable.for now the leaked rooms are improving quickly
People have been successful with porting aosp apps to Samsung roms, I just can't find anybody willing to share the info on how to do it.
Is it possible to add features to a stock rom rather than changing to a new rom (which always seem buggy) eg.
The camera hack improve video ( in omega rom)
And is it possible to add themes, icon pictures etc without using a launcher or changing rom?

Yes if its a custom stock rom just open with win rar or similar then delete /add
Other wise root and es file explorer delete /and add.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
So it can only be done with a custom rom then.
Are there any custom stock rom that are not buggy. I seem to always read about people having problems with even custom stock roms. Not being able to restore apps with titanium. Back up etc
No he means that with a custom rom you can (but are not limited to) add/edit the files in the archive before flashing it.
This would/should work for Odin Flashes of stock Rom's too.
However, as described you don't need this procedure on stock, you can add/edit the installed apps through a tool such as Root Explorer.
Note that most features of a given Samsung-based custom Rom are not developed by the Rom-Developers but by a 3. party which often provides CWM-flashable versions of their modifications.
Most people that have issues with custom roms attempt e.g. to transfer system apps including the data which often fails.
What if it says you have to be deodexed.? Are there any guides?
Plenty of guides you need to use Google search and read up on customizing Android .
Some in Android forum XDA and SGS2 forum XDA .
Custom rom is just easy .Stock rom far more involved and better to use one of the deodexed stock roms posted that are not customized further .
Yes custom roms especially on month 1 build can be buggy but usually settle down by build 30 .

basically what benifits do you get from custom roms ?
all i see is in threads are just bugs or something not working and i would like to know why people choose to change from a stock working rom to a custom rom with bugs ?
every rom i see theres bugs and theres not a rom i can see that doesnt have bugs or somethings not working appart from stock.
also is there an app or mod to shoot videos at 60fps ?
Every software has bugs. And I do mean all of it. But custom ROMs are developed as a hobby, so they don't go through nearly as much testing. You can always read the first posts to know the benefits of custom roms. For example, check out the domination theme, Jkay framework, per-app dpi settings, which are included in some of the sammy-based ROMs. There are also numerous tweaks and mods that make it faster, and all the useless samsung bloat is removed. Just read and try it for yourself
The benefits of installing custom ROMs over stock is that bloatware are removed and tweaks added, there aren't many ROMs which has bugs as all developers uses stock apps and settings
I've been searching to no end for a kernel that will support 2-way call recording, but I haven't had much luck with the latest ICS 4.0.4 for the TB. I would like to stay as close to stock (minus the debloated and deodexed ROM I'm running) as possible. I've been looking at some of the mods but they either don't support it or the kernels were made for older ROMs or have bugs. Could anyone point me in the right direction on this?
