How do I activate my photon after changing to an ICS rom? Is it true that I have to take it back to a stock based rom? If so what is a good stock based rom that I can use to activate it?
Your phone should activate on its own. Did you log in to your Google account upon flashing the ICS rom?

Hey Guys!
Just installed CWM onto my phone. I have one question as the title says. If I install the home base ROM, how do i later install the Stock ROM back without losing anything? Like CWM or the unlocked bootloader etc?
Would like to try out differenct kernels on my phone now. But I need to know whether i can go back to stock without losing anything.. Data / Apps would be fine.
Another question, which is the best kernel? Home base rom without any bloatware is the one I am thinking of getting into. Please advise.
Don't bother with home base. Development is dead and home base is based on out dated code. Your best bet is joker's ROMs and kernels. Skinny will give you a Sprint bloat free ROM while retaining all the core functionality of the stock moto ROM. For example, the stock music player gives you shoutcast and podcast support, this is retained in skinny.
Joker stock gives you a tuned, stock experience. Skinny gives you a light weight screamer. Skinny complete gives you all the improvements of skinny plus webtop+. Joker also has a ton of kernels to play with.
Hey loki. First of all i really appreciate your work out here
Ok so i'll have a look into jokers roms... but again if i wanna get back to stock by removing all the custom kernels?
hey guys, this may be getting into the realm of a "stupid question" but I'm wondering if there's any way to get the samsung dive service working on a custom rom. I know the few roms that I tried that were based on touchwiz already had it activated and working. What I'm thinking about is the other AOSP based roms that are almost plain jane jelly bean (4.1.1 or 4.1.2).
is there an apk or some update.zip I can install and get that option back, not that I really ever used it but still, it would be nice

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Also looking for. Just updated my S2 to JB 4.1.2 and Samsungdive is gone
In order for non-stock ROMs to work with Samsungdive (which I am very found of, BTW), there are 2 requirements:
1) It must be based on a stock ROM
2) the samsung framework must be kept in the ROM along with a few other samsung components that make the link between the device and the SamsungDive servers
Unfortunatly SamsungDive is heavily dependant on the Samsung framework, so if either one of the above is not true, it isn`t gonna work.
Forget about using it on AOSP, AOKP, MIUI, etc, because they don`t have the Samsung Framework (obviously).
Due to some weird reasons i need a completely stock rooted rom, just like Santod's current ICS rom here, but GB. I havent been able to find one with a working link. Any help would be great. The next best thing would be a GB rom with the original sense and phone settings.
2.11.605.19 stock rooted rom
Hi all,
I have been trying out some JB based ROMs for the last month or so and I have decided to go back to ICS based ROMs but whenever I install a ROM, the phone keeping looping.
Now, I have tried 3 different ROMs and kernels, it doesn't make any difference.
BTW, flashing the stock 587.ftf via flashtool works but I want to install a custom ROM.
Help will be appreciated. Thanks
Anyone?
Make sure you got ICS kernel and ICS ROM.
Hey guys, I want to go back to the Stock rom because the battery drain is so hard for me. I like a special feature of this rom and this is the inactive display. I mean, you got a message and the display go smoothly on to show your message. I would like to see to have it for the stock rom. Is there a way to get this on 4.3 stock rom?
