I'm confused-did you create a ROM for LG Optimus Chic, or LG GT540 Optimus?

Can you tell me from which tutorial you made it please? Me and my brother are trying to build 2.3.3 for our GT540, but we aren't familiar with that. We got the 2.3.3 source though.

I love my modded 2.1 Rom
Root + Overclock + Link2SD -> perfect!

It's not fair Where is my EleganceSwift ?

EleganceSwift is a modded 2.1, right? So, it's the last choice.

Well i liked elegance swift a lot, but i missed all the awesome gingerbread and cyanogenmod features... so i am back to swiftdroid again but it's nice to know that there is an alternative to 2.2 and 2.3

Really you can creat ROM 2.3 for GT540? Meaby you can create new CyanogenMod7 and share source code to team CYanogenMod?

Hmm, did you manage to get all features working? Care to share?

We haven't even made the first build, but if everything goes according to plan, the first release will be out soon.

I like SwiftDroid. Doesn't tested joestone yet, because it has more bugs, later probably I could switch to his clean aosp. OpenSwift is useless here I think if we have newer build with more features working. Good times for CM6 gone away since SwiftDroid released. Still didn't tested Quarx 2.1 custom rom with probability for OC it to 900MHz and see best results in benchmarks but 2.1 isn't that recent for now.
If you see mistakes in language, sorry, but I don't use translator and still learning english

OpenSwift has bluetooth but no FM. Swiftdroid has FM but no bluetooth. It's all a matter of priority. The performance boost from 2.2 to 2.3 is not that significant.

I tested tried 2.1+ ROMs, and I liked the most Joestone's ROM. It is the fastest and most smooth. I hope Joe will continue his work

Im using quarx 2.1 black with quarz kernel. Should I change?

AOSP or SwiftDroid?

Hi,
I'm currently using SwiftDroid m4. Now I'm not sure whether I should update to RC4 or try out AOSP. Can someone tell me the advantages and disatvantages of each rom? I know, that there are some older threads which deal with this topic. But I think AOSP has developed very fast ind the last few month.
Thanks
G00fY

the best way to find out is to spend an hour or two testing both ROMS to see what you like the best and stick with it

Swiftdroid have Theme Choser, and that is big + for me.. But AOSP is clean and more stable.

Well, I bought Launcher Pro, so I think that I won't miss the theme choser.
But does AOSP also allows to put quick settings in the pull-down bar at the homescreen? Thats a feature I wouldn't miss.
Yes, eoghan2t7 maby I just try out AOSP and see how it works for me. But why do you use swiftdroid?
An other question: I followed a data2system guide last time before I flashed to swiftdroid m4. Do I need to do it again or how can I use data2system with the latest AOSP??

LauncherPro
LauncherPro uses quite alot of memory

I think swiftdroid. It used to be swiftdroid = power aosp = stable but swiftdroid is now very stable and powerful (in my opinion)

Swiftdroid

[Q] question about new custom roms

hi, i want some help with it!
actually i have cyanogenmod gingerbread 2.3.7 with kernel 2.6.29 , by mur4ik
but now i have heard that he is not making or working on it anymore and there are another guys making new things with 2.3.7 for example the swiftdroid second life, or the custom rom made by pete and his friend.
i wanted to know if these ones are better versions than the one i have, or if they are behind it, and if those two are newer and better versions, wich one would you recommend for lg gt 540?,
and another thing, they talk a lot about kernels, really the mur4ik rom i installed was like a package so i really didn't even care about it
but now that are talking about it and wanted to know what is it , and why is better one or another
i heard some of the guys want to puto a .31 kernel instead a .29 and things like that, and well, i really don't know it so well
help with that please, thanks!

Well for kernels look it up on Google a bit too long to explain it here.
For l android 2.1 the best kernel to be used is .29 kernel for 2.2 it would be the .32 kernel and for 2.3 and 4.0(ics) it would be the .35/.38 or 3.0 kernel
As for roms you are using swiftdroid so keep it or then next best thing would be any 2.2 rom I recommend project Utopia but if I where you I will wait for Mike's asop 2.3.7 v6 to come out

I sure am waiting for V6 mike's rom.
For the looks of it i am waiting for mike´s rom V6 it should be fast and stable, just hoping he releases it ASAP....

try Pebe 2.3.7 v5.1 rom, im using it and its quite good!

Yes, the last pcf cm7 (.32) is very good. The only thing that it ends with the battery much faster than for example in pcf aosp 2.2.2 (.32)

Froyo optimum is great too
Amazing battery life and so smooth

Utopia 1.0 is good daily rom based on android 2.2 with excellent battery life and stability but it's not good for gaming. Application compatibility is lower than SDSL which is based on android 2.3 and SDSL supports theme choser themes which makes it more customizable. So basically SDSL is better for gaming and for people who needs more customization or want to use certain applications that requires android 2.3. Utopia 1.0 is better if you're looking for stable rom for daily use.

The rom I used for the longest period was PCFighter's V5 with supercharger and and loopy smoothness script. It was the better I've ever tried, stable and fast. Now I'm on ICS, and while I find it faster than GB, I think still isn't enough stable for everyday use if your friend simply wants a phone that work.

EleganceSwift 5.0 , very stable and comfortable rom. Without any tweaks is very fast , and very long battery life (in my phone 3-4 days without wifi )

HTC Desire Fanboy wants to boost girlfriends Galaxy S - need advices

Hi guys,
i know that Thread is kind of lazy but my girlfriends Galaxy S1 (Stock 2.3 ROM not rooted) is soooo damn slow and i wanna help her with a new ROM,Kernel etc...
Myself is using the newest ICS Release on my HTC Desire but i readed and informed me everyday for best performance.
At the HTC Desire topic im very well-informed but the Samsung topic is extremly new for me...so only thing i did : Stock 2.2 to Stock 2.3
(Kies is bull**** xD ?!?!)
I would like to root my girlfriends Droid but i dont know which ROM or Kernel should i chose...there are sooo much.
Because of that...guys: Whats the best, smoothest and especially stable ROM (especially for girls^^) whatever Gingerbread or ICS...i think JB is not smooth enough like on Desire :/ (too much issues etc)
It would be pretty if someone could help me so that i can boost the performance of my girlfriends phone on the best and stable way.
THX

Try stock android 2.3.6 ZSJW4. Root it with CF Root and she will be fine. Very stable and smooth with no bugs. Yoy can find it on Sammobile.com

For Gingerbread I recommend the Samsung stock roms, which are pretty stable.
See this thread for official GB firmwares from Samsung (includes also a guide for flashing stock roms with Odin).
See this thread for CF-Root, a basic rooted kernel for stock GB roms (it's the stock kernel with added su binary, SuperUser app and CWM recovery).
See this thread for Semaphore, an extended kernel for stock GB roms.
I only tried Cyanogenmod 9 as ICS rom so I can't recommend any other ICS rom, but CM9 is pretty stable (I'm using RC2 atm and have no big problems). To install CM9 or other ICS based roms, you need to install CF-Root or Semaphore first (through Odin), to get CWM recovery.

thx guys, but
@ c_codrut: i don't think that TouchWiz is a good choice...because its still boring and slowly
@stbenz: thanks for your informations, i will look at this. But im intrest about the CM9 Stuff on Galaxy S
I also use CM9 for my desire but its not officially supported...its an ROM from xda (DK-Zero) and its know very stable and without any big issues.
But i used it since 2012/04..and at this time it was very buggy...no mic no camera etc...for me no problem but for her xD not acceptable^^
But my problem is that myself can fix problems on my device and can live with it...but i dont want that my girlfriend need help with every update or something else...she should use the ROM as an almost stable and for daily-usable ROM.
I know that i should or could test it but its not my device and i couldn't walk all day with it^^ (hope you understand this )
It would be cool, if see could use ICS by CM or what about the AOKP ? (i missed that for my desire :/)
So best thing would be a almost stable ICS ROM....i/she dont need that Samsung UI i guess.
CM9 RC2 (from 2012-07-19) or the Nightly (from 2012-08-07) ?
or what about AOKP (Milestone 6) ?

cm9 + latest devil kernel :highfive:

AOKP milestone 6, semaphore 1.3.0s kernel. Fast, stable and she‘ll have unicorns.
sent from a telephonic device

Try Cm9 Rc2 very stable
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda premium

With cm9 all hardware works except for fm radio. Some are reporting, that the latest nightlies are more stable than rc2, but thats most likely because bugfixes for bugs reported for rc2 are already merged to the nightlies. But I also think we are not far away from the next rc/final version, so if you don't want to flash too often, you could wait for the next rc/final version.

This guy knows what he is saying. Use CM9 RC2 and Devil Kernel and you got yourself a blazingly fast winner!

ok, guys THX!!!
i will start with CM9RC2...was my favorite anyway
And when i update the ROM ...does it works like on Desire (wiping cache and dalvik) installing newest RC or Nightly?
Or the Kernels needs often to be update?

Hey, I am using this ROM and I can only say it is extremely good, a real revelation after using Froyo and GB. I had some issues with CM9 but it was also great and superfast. i9000 with ICS is like a completely new phone!
Hope this helped a bit.

The kernel gets flashed every time you install an update, so if you have an alternative kernel, you have to flash it again every time you flash a new CM9 version. You also have to flash gapps after every update.

Girls will like MIUI ROM. Its beautiful and have custom theme... try it out.

Cm9 and aokp have themes engine too
sent from another galaxy

Hi guys...im back and finished my work
I rooted with Odin and hopefully with the correct Kernel.After that i made a NAND-Backup.
So i wiped everything and flashed CM9 RC2 and the Gapps...and everything was smooth and cool
But so far i didn't flashed the devilkernel yet...the CM-kernel seems ok.
So my question whats the Pros and Cons of the Devil-kernel compared to the CM-builtin-Kernel?
I think batterylife is important than extreme power and high batteryloss, i guess for her ^^
BTW: To make CM more female, i installed a pink theme and a pink clock widget for my girlfriend, she's happy now
And again guys...THANKS...it was very interesting to flash and root an other device (brand) and i saw the differences, Pros and Cons!
In my opinion Rooting on desire was easier and not needed as much informations and readings ^^
I hope she get no big problems but i not averse to work on her device too^^
And im jealous that her ROM runs so stable...on Desire its also stable but the Videocam doesnt work ...damn :crying: (very choppy)
But there isn't a official CMsupport or 100% HWA

i don't know about the devils kernel, but i can definitely recommend the ICS semaphore kernel http://forum. xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1468795
just remove the spaces.
using the smartassV2 govenor, etc, my phone's battery lasts about a day longer than it did on the cm9 kernel

Ok, i also use this governor on my desire and an extra sleep state governor
...the smartass v2 rocks !!!!

So is it possible to flash the stable Version over the RC2?without any negative aspects?!
The update process is like desire? wiping Cache and dalvik an flash the New Version?

You just flash the stable over RC2, flash the google apps, and that's it. No need to wipe anything. If in doubt, make a nandroid backup before flashing.
