Wanam ROM isn't that bad so far
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
wanam rom xxlp2 is a daily rom all stuff working for my daily use, phone, messages, web browsing, camera, and some apps
go try it then if is not a daily driver for u go back to gb
If you are looking for a really stable ICS rom with every single thing working, then no. There isnt one at the moment. Even the ICS leaks from Samsung often gives me FCs, but if you are okay with that and have a lot of patience (you wouldnt want to hurl your phone against the nearest wall in frustration...) then you can try resurrection ics rom. Cheers!
Hey there.
I installed this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1436854 last night but picked up some problems as this was the first time I am installing a 4.0.3 and when I tried to follow there instructions My device wouldn't boot.
So basically what I had to do was the following.
1. Install the following leaked ROMfrom install zip file from sdcard in CWM. http://downloadandroidrom.com/file/GalaxyS2/roms/ICSLeaked/ICSi9100.zip Thanks to Zedomax over at galaxys2root.com.(Not sure if I can post this link, if not then please remove)
2. Then I ran the restore like they prescribe in the REMIX v7.1 Thread and all ran smooth. So big up to the guys working on that ROM excellent work so far. You guys rock.
Hope this helps.
I would like to thank everyone for help, u all have been great and I have found what u was looking for!!

Stock CWM flasheable ROM?

Hey guys, I was trying to go back to stock, but I cannot find the drivers for my computer so it sees my ACE on ODIN.
so I was looking around and couldn´t find a Stock/Stock-alike CWM flasheable ROM. Anybody knows of one?
It doesn´t need be PURE STOCK, just have TW interface. The phone is for my mom and she likes the TW. The other thing I´m looking for is that it has to have spanish as a display language.
Any input would be greatly appreciated.
Several stock FW`s:

Thank you for your input =)
I´m not totally clear if what you posted are files ONLY for rooting & deodexing or are full stock roms rooted and deodexed?

Flashing a new rom?

I'm sort of a noob when it comes to this I have the xperia play with CDMA. Is there anyway to crack the bootloader? If not is there any really great roms to use for it? Also can someone give me a very detailed instruction on how to flash a new rom because I really have no clue what I'm doing. I'm up to the point where I did a nandroid backup I don't know where to go from from there. Any help will be greatly appreciated!!

There are many roms available such as cm etc.. Don't worry you'll not brick your device as long as you follow the given instructions..

This.
Also, you should make a backup of your EFS, just in case. It contains very valuable information of your device such as IMEI and other stuff, and it's not recoverable without a proper Backup or Sammy's help in the rare event that it gets screwed. Look for a piece of software called EFS PRO on this forum. I'd like to give you the proper url, but I'm kind of busy in a crappy PC at work.
And make sure you use a i9300 compatible ROM, just wanted to make it clear because I've seen people with variants (like US) trying to flash a i9300 ROM and get it pretty messy.
Stock ROMs are fairly easy for starters.
Good luck!.-
PS: When using ODIN make sure that you don't have Re-Partition selected. I repeat, it must be NOT CHECKED. Or you'll be DOOMED.-
Hi
Why don’t you try with Omega first.
There's a flashing guide in post #4
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1663656
Personal I prefer AOSP ROMs with MIUI.
Good luck
Edit: just make sure you do a nandroid backup. Always good to have a backup to go back to if things don't go as hoped. Have saved me many times.

Does anyone have solutions for "error restore / data" when restore by CWM?
I notice that my backup is quite big. Its more than 3 Gb.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
Your backup could be damaged. I had this problem once with my Galaxy S, so I couldn't use my backup and had to install all apps manually...
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk
OK, this has been said a few times, titanium backup is only good to use on the same base rom... Going from ICS to JB rom means there are going to be lots of FC's and other problems... Its like installing a mac os on a windows PC... Not gonna work.... You are trying to force JB to use ICS file structure and it doesn't like it...

I personally think it's quite weird you don't press the thanks button for TheATHEiST, but when you get an answer you like you actually do. These all are the basic questions when it comes to rooting and flashing etc., and you clearly didn't seem to take the effort to read and search for yourself.
