Hello, I'm familiar with sbrissens work for the E4GT, however I'm unsure about the fascinate build, is that build compatible with this fascinate model. Flashing a JB rom for a friend's phone, so I'm not familiar with Fascinate models.
Otherwise if someone has positive input about Paranoid Android or Helly Bean which are the other two candidates I'm looking to test drive if sbrissen's build is uncompatible.
Thanks in advance.

Haven't tried the sbrisson JB rom...but I can vouch for the AOKP build 9/27 and Devil 1.6 combo for the Fascinate. Completely stable for me, gps locks, sms and mms work, and it's smooth smooth smoooooth. Everyone is different and every cell is different so most will say to try something out and see how it works for you, if it's not a good fit, flash something else! Good Luck!

Hi!
I have recently bought a second hand Vibrant.
Seller had MIUI on it, which I didn't like, for a few reasons.
One was non working GPS.
So, I installed latest stable CM 7 , which I like, BUT, GPS doesn't
work with it too. As I understood, that is common problem with 2.3.3
based ROM and Vibrant.
So I started looking for 2.2 based ROM and faced the problem, that
most links for these are currently dead.
I have succeeded to download Toxic Crazy8 and few versions of bionic,
but my recovery (version 5.0.x.x) refuses to flash them, as they are
in "old format" .
So, long story short, I am still looking for a ROM that will make me happy,
and thus need your help .
My requirements are :
Deodexed ROM, so I can apply the RTL fix on it ( or with built in RTL support).
Working GPS
Good battery life
Not too slow
As new as possible ( may be 2.3.x if all the above apply)
Should include FFC mod support
with working download link .
So, your help,suggestions and advices (and download links) are welcome!
Thank you in advance!
First and for most I suggest the ICS Passion V11 rom ....but if you want to go back to the extremely stable roms among us you will have to flash an older clockwork something that can be done in clockwork mod. Many people suggest Project V it was a great rom, but most would say that you can't go wrong with the bionix roms. Again though ICS Passion V11 (4.0.3 based) is definitely a modern winner though.

ICS PASSION.
Stable fast GPS works and its 4.0.3

If you want the newest, latest and greatest, the two posters above me nailed it. Passion is awesome and fairly stable.
But if you are wanting a 2.2 ROM, fisherman (I think that's his name) is updating Bionix and should have updated links.
ICS Passion
Thanks for all the replies!
Let's say that you've convinced me, and I am going to try the ICS Passion.
Few more questions regarding it though.
As I am totally not familiar with ICS, does it have RTL support?
I recall I have read somewhere it does , out of the box...
Does ICS Passion have support for FFC mod, or , specifically, will
I be able to have video chats on Skype or it's alternatives?
Thank you in advance!
Mulder check your PM box.
If you don't end up liking the ICS, there are these 2.2's that are solid builds and you can flash them with the CWR version in my signature.
Toxic8 (which you tried but with the linked recovery it should work-did for me)
Deranged9
Bionix
Bionix-Fishman redux
Trigger
Bi-winning
2.3's have battery and memory issues, so buyer beware.
Oh, and how good is ICS in terms of battery life?
I get 2 days out of her...

You might have to flash a couple of the other major ROMs out there and see what suits you. What's best to one might not be best to another. I currently like the Evervolv ICS ROM because the GPS is the most stable (no crashes) than on any ROM I've ever run, including stock and rooted 2.1. I like other features of ICS, but there's caveats like the camera doesn't work right.
I ran GSB for a long time before that, but as CondemnedSoul's was compiled most recently (off of more recent source files), I'd be tempted to stick with it unless there's something in particular you find lacking.
The official CyanogenMod ROM was updated recently for the Eris as well. I haven't tried the most recent version. For a reason I don't remember, I didn't use the old version for very long, and I went back to GSB at the time.
i just got a an eris.... i flashed couple evervovl ics and cm9 but of all were very slow and mic didn't work. Surprisinly, evervolv jelly bean worked the best - mic works, phone, txt, etc.... but camera doesn't work..... give that a try outside gsb....

Hey do you, or anyone for that matter, still have this rom file? If so, it would be extremely appreciated if you could either share a dropbox link, upload to another mirror and share the link, email it to me, or any other means to share the file. I am asking on another forum without any luck so far, and I would like to give this rom a shot.
I have been trying very hard to make Paranoid Android work properly with my USCC Mesmerize. Had a lot of problems though and was wondering which ROM is working the best on this device? What is everyone using and what do you think of it? I will be installing it on several work phones, so I need something fairly stable and bug free. I also have to have Swype!
Thanks!
Running JB AOKP here and its smooth as butter.
Sent from my Galaxy S Mesmerize running AOKP Build 4 JellyBean with Devil Kernel 1.7.5
any ideas???both use a gyroscope right?
From all I have read, all ROMs running jellybean are still having difficulty with the stock 4.1.1 camera. Until the time comes that the base CyanogenMod or AOKP builds are fixed up there is really no way to get the camera up and running from 4.1.1 much less 4.2. I may be mistaken, but it is all over all the jellybean threads I have read, as well as the ROMs I have installed.
Now this may change with the completion of the kexec ROM source. Kexec is just a fancy name for bypassing the boot loader and installing a custom kernel. Just FYI, if you didn't know what that was already.
Hope this help.
P.S. I think I remember seeing that Max from High on Android had reviewed a ROM called eclipse that may have had the photosphere camera working. Seems like it was an ICS ROM though...

No major issue for me.

It is by far the best rom I have ever used.
Go to the slimbean thread so you can read users' comments.
Try it.
Very fast and very smooth :good:
