Just ordered my GN, what should I flash first? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777

Hey guys, I'm coming from an i777/iPhone 4S and I'm extremely excited for this device to come in. I'm going to keep it stock rooted for a few day I think, but after that, what do you guys think I should flash? Thanks ahead of time!

If GN means galaxy nexus I would suggest that forum but even then the best answer would be to look in the correct forum and then flash various Roms and pick the best one that suits u

ICS thoughts

How hard is it for us to get more 19100 roms ported to our phone? I'm running the illusion one and it works great. Just saw this and thought why can't it be ported. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1436854

Rant coming, so skip over if you want.
It would be one thing if people were like "Do we need a kernel or something to hellraise ICS roms?" but when people like you ask, "HUR DUR DUR I WANT THIS SO DO IT NAUGH" without any respect or donation to the devs that perform these tasks for the community for little or no payment in return.
/end rant
ICS roms can't be installed on our phones because Hellraising doesn't work on 4.0 roms because it requires a totally different kernel and modem.

[Q] Whats going on with Development?

We still have a Beta CWM? Does the Internation Note not help us with all on developement? It seems like the Infuse got off to a faster start when it first came out. Someone please shed some light on me!!!

CWM may be in Beta but it is completely functional and stable. Read over in the dev forum... there is loads of good stuff in the works. Devs have only had a stable CWM for like a week. Give them some time. Or hey, roll up your sleeves and start developing too!

Much like baseball, we're in Spring Training for development right now. It's a new phone with new challenges. Good things will happen, give it some time.

The phone is still new. Plus there are devs already working on roms. I was just over in the infuse, nexus, and skyrocket section and some devs are coming over here.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA Premium App
Can't complain as some of the Devs in here are working blindly (don't even have the GNOTE). Just be thankful people are taking the time out of their lives to put the hard work in developing things For FREE. I on one hand have no clue on development, but I act as a guinea pig and test Rom and kernels to help give feedback to Devs so they can make adjustments or improvements.

Intermediate note user's question...

Here is my situation : I have preordered gs3 and sold my HTC one x. I bought note for the time being and love it already. My question is that if i root it and custom Rom it, will it be easy to go back to stock sp that i can return back to best buy within 30 days?
Sole purpose that i got this phone is so that it can fill in for the time being...

Yes as long as you tell them that you returned it because you didn't like it they wont ask or care. If they ask you if you did anything to it then its on you to tell them yes or no. I bet is will be out by then and you'll be hooked. Good luck
"Since God created man, and man created the Galaxy Note, the Galaxy Note are like a gift from God, Randal!"
Well these phones have a flash counter that can be reset i believe using http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=24145452 . Also in the development section, there is a sticky by appdroid that has stock flashes. Although i would almost hate to risk it. I think if you check out both of those threads, you may be able to make a better decision. Hope it helps, someone might be along here to better answer you sooner or later.

Jelly Bean source code is out!

Seems this news hasn't made it to the Rezound forum yet, so I'm taking the initiative.
http://source.android.com/source/downloading.html
What I'm wondering is, when RIL is finally released for the Rezound, will it be forwards and backwards compatible? Will GB, ICS, and JB all match up and work? Or is it specific to each?
Edit: I see someone started a discussion in the General forum while I was typing this. My apologies.
This belongs in general, not development
I'd bet that the ICS RIL would work with few or no modifications in JB, but then again I don't know a thing about Android development.
Sooooo yeah. JB is pretty sweet. Before I lost my Nexus, I had JB on it, and it was AWESOMELY smooth. Even pure stock was awesomely smooth

Getting sick of these posts saying this is why people leave XDA. If you all want to leave then leave. We don't need to see this post over and over and over again!
How is your post any better then people posting what should be in the development section.
You obviously are not in a hurry to leave because you are still posting here so stop with that BS already!
And if you do decide to leave, XDA will still run just fine without you. I would much rather see jayochs stick around.

Flash the stock 2.3.4 with root and then flash siyah or entropy's kernel for CWM. There's your spoon feeding for the day
Sent from team Pirate! Using Tapatalk 2
Questions belong in the Q&A forum, not general.
Many of the methods will not work. You can flash a custom kernel which injects root (increments the flash counter.) There is a rooted stock ICS in the original development section (does not increment the flash counter.)
No no no! Creepy, they don't want the EASY way dude. Have u learned nothing? They want to update with kies. So they can make a thread about not being able to update with kies. Then make another about the correct drivers and how kies sucks in general. Then they wanna use that for 2 days , find out how bad it sucks, then try and flash back to something else with Odin. Except they can't get Odin to work. New thread time again! Then once they get that spoon feeding goodness they wanna Odin back to stock and flash a new ROM. Except....wait for it....they're getting status 7 errors cause they're trying to flash a ported i9100 rom! New thread baby!!!

No man no I wasn't directing anything at u when I was saying what I said about people not wanting to take the easy way and creating a bunch of threads. I was talking about the loads of people who are already / have done that. Most of us here have inside jokes with one another cause we see each other on here a lot. I would never want anyone to think I don't like them or purposefully hurt someone. Like Nick said u gotta have a thick skin around here, and most of us aren't trying to hurt anyone.
