How to flash Darky ROM v10.4 XWJW1 - Galaxy S I9000 General

Darky ROM v10.4 XWJW1
Flashing Video Guide

Nice video
Before ICS, darky was my always my flavorite ROM

Thanks for the info, but I think JW1 is better for DJBROM 2.01

The ROM is amazing, but with the current grow of ICS Port to SGS is almost inevitable to switch the one from another.
Besides, it's been a long time since they released a ROM and Darky is not that involved as he used to be.
One of the best ROMs though.

10.4.1 is available for download...

Lesti ROM, Krillios ROM, XXJPL

I've been meaming to install a Froyo based ROM for a while now. Since JPL came out yesterday, I've been thinking about flashing it. But I've heard a lot of nice things about the custom JPF ROMs.
I guess the real question is: Is there anything really useful of the new JPL ROM that makes it so much better over JPF? Because obviously between JPF and Krillios or Lesty's JPF there is really no contest.

Try a custom rom. JPL has not many differences from JPF!
Try it Kyrillos' ROM v2.3! Stable and fast.
Oh, and nice.
I use his ROMs a few weeks and I haven't got a problem.
I like it very much.
Sent from my GT-I5800 Kyrillos 2.3 Gingerbread Edition
LOl, thanks Kyrillos. Any idea when you'd be done with 3.0? I might wait until then if it's a viable wait

Install v2.3...
v3.0 Its gonna take 1-2 weeks.
Hey Kyrillos, I finally have froyo on my galaxy 3, and I can't express how happy iam with the Rom you made for us.
I am using v2.3 and this was very easy to install for a newbie like me.
However I wanted to ask you one question what exactly does the "Select_this_in_CSC" do, I got the desktop after loading PDA after JPF
then why we needed CSC,
please don't get angry with newbie question, this is first time I fingered my android.
Many thanks.

Its a great point you make that you fingered Android... such a male doministic view !! I'm with you bro
Just to ask you, did yu try JPL....??
today installed JPL and doesn't seem any problem with this firmware I'm not using GPS so cant say if there are any improvements
kyrillos roms are very nice... but the indroid rom seems to be nice to...
I used Lestatious v1.2 and works very good for me!
Kyrillos Rom is simply the best one it is super fast and smooth

Why don't you just flash each of those? It'll give you some much needed experience...
You don't need to setup the whole stuff you're about to use later. Just flash and play(tm)
happy flashing
I see that similar stuff is already posted in dev but maybe posting it here can speed up update
I have a problem with seach in Kyrillos 2.3
Long press on left do not open Search and from menu I get Search where I can not write anything. I was thinking that JPF search should still be there?
I have chosen Kyrillos ROM 3.0 beta. Not tried Lestatious, but tried Indroid 2.0. Indroid isn't for me so "polished" yet as Kyrillos ROM. And Kyrillos ROM is fast. very fast.
I tried Kyrillos' ROM v2.3 and i am very satisfied, i use this ROM from 2 days and is very very fast than JPF, my previous firmware on phone. In this weekend i will flash 3.0 Final version!
mmmm ... I am waiting for Kryillos 3 final version
guys any custom rom which has been made using current samsung 2.2 release
I'm waiting kyrillos 3.0 final release to flash my first custom rom, but I have a question (or a suggestion) for the developer. Is it possibile to add in 3.0 rom a feature to eliminate the rings or vibrations when the charge is complete?
thanks and good job, lots of people I'm talking with are very excited for your roms!
I am using Kyrillos 2.0 and its very stable, fast and cool. Just waiting for 3.0... maybe this week.
JPL..inDroid!!
yesterday, i flashed JPL firmware and i liked it better than any other past firmwares....yeah, better than JPF...
My Quadrant Results are :514... i know hard to believe but fact~~
Of course, u got bread with jam in ya plate.!!

[Q] Froyo sense

Is anyone using any 2.2 froyo with sense??? for everyday use...
if yes how is it??
whats the name of that rom?
ChocolateFroyo Rel2 is the ONLY 2.2 sense rom available but doesnt have a working camera...Development stopped due to this in the first week of january
not true ... there are three 2.2 sense roms on xda but chocolatefroyo is the one with most working stuff.
thanks....i think i'll wait for the villian team with there froyo w/sense rom...i hope it would come soon
not true. i have VILLAINROM 12.0 based on froyo 2.2 with sense is the best rom with sense for the hero. and if you flash the "flykernel-12a" you can do overclock and set up the cpu for 710 mhz!!!!
That's based on Android 2.1 'Eclair' not Froyo
chocolate froyo was fixed the bug of the camera????

As stated few post before, all Android OS 2.2 with Sense (including chocolate froyo) all comes with non working camera. It's not a bug, it's source not available for Sense 2.2 ROM developers.
If it's of anyone's interest on using Sense, VR13 is now available for flashing.
It's still based on Android OS 2.1 (Eclair) though, not OS 2.2 (Froyo).
Ok thanks!!!!!!!! One think.. Can you send me the link to find villainrom 13 please???
I finded it!!!! I´m going to flash villainrom13 on my hero thanksssss
I need help.
Hello! Already i WAS flashed the VILLAINROM V13 based on ECLAIR but someone does not like to me. Anyone can to say to his criterion any stable and current ROM for HERO?THANKS!!!!!
PD: IF CAN POSSIBLE WITH & WITHOUT SENSE PLEASEEEE!!!!
You don't like the current VR13 that you had flashed?
May be you grew bored with Eclair (OS2.1).
You may wish to try flash Froyo (OS2.2) ROMs then, such as
Froyd1.73 by VillainRom, CM6.2 Speedmachine V2 by Elelinux, Elelinux's other Froyo ROMs, Erasmux's Floyo1.2, Radug's TastyFroyo, Cronos Froyo 1.8....
Froyo ROMs should be very stable and suitable for daily use.
If you are adventurous enough, you may try flash GingerBread (OS2.3) ROMs, such as Elelinux's 7RC2 Hero v1.4, CyanogenMod 7 Nightly or Cronos' GB1.9
Try Gingerbread ROMs if you like to try new things but these ROMs at the current stage all still have bugs here and there.
Remember, always Nandroid your current ROM (back up, in case you need to restore back).
Have fun

I love Sense, but as it's stuck on 2.1 (for everything to work), I've been trying various other ROMs.
I'd certainly recommend that you use ROM Manager to backup whatever ROM you're on so you can completely restore your previous (working) ROMs with apps etc.
I'd been using FroydVillain Villiainrom 1.7.2 for a while (very stable - 2.2), but started trying the CM7 ROMs (2.3.3) - the best I've come across is Elelinux-7.0.0-RC2-Hero-v1.5 (2011-03-17):

Best rom/kernel

Hi, what is the best rom and kernel for galaxy s,best performance, more tweaks...atm i have cm7.
Any custom rom with tw 3 ,4?
Thanks for support.
Post link with rom .kernel......pls
Aghh that's a tough question, everyone will say "try and see for yourself the best one that fits you".
The BEST for me is latest full stock with no customization at all.

you should try this rom:F1 Galaxy S II V8 with touchwiz 4.0+Semaphore kernel 2.5.0...running so smooth and doing very well..
Link:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1129404
You should try semaphore kernel + Thunderbolt Tweaks.
For ROM, I'm using F1 Innovation HD 7.0.
It is stable and smooth......
Best rom: [ROM][ICS][I9000] Team ICSSGS RC4.2 with Semaphore 0.81, Devil 14.2 or Devil 15.1 kernels
The best stock roms are from Poland (CSC:XEO) .
Check out JS8 rom for 2.2.1 , it's fast and very stable with good signals (GPS,Wireless,etc.).
Unfortunately i don't recommend 2.3.x roms because in my opinion are simply crap.
Aokp build22 b1.2
GingerReal2 - R2.0.0+ midnight-0.8.8 kernel
Great battery life smooth fast, stable.

Lot of rom and kernel info.
Currently using MIUI 2.2.24 with patch
Very fast and stable, looks nice and good battery life.
Just to add a bit of polish I use the Black Android Theme.
Lovely looking theme if you like black themes.
Ill message the links to you.

Yes. Semaphore is the best kernel. Devil not bad too.

I finally bailed on GB and installed ICS last night. Very nice, teamics with semaphore running very smooth with no issues.
GB was always disappointing. More memory used and not much slicker or faster than Froyo.
As someone said JS8 with speedmod was very good, probably the best for being lean. ICS is probably sucking back the same amount of memory as GB but at least it runs much smoother, looks better and has some cool features added.
[ROM][ICS][I9000] Team ICSSGS RC4.2
I just installed this rom to my galaxy s. It is a bit slow but it is my favorite room.
AOKP Rom + Semaphore kernel. Trying Devil kernel atm, not bad.

[ICS]Favorite ICS rom post it plzz!!!

Hello guys whats the best ics u have used so far on your sgs2 i9100???
Gingerbread rom kernel combo also appreciated!!
GB Roms I like RevoHD 6 + Siyah kernel.
For ICS, I've been using The latest Foxhound + Stock kernel, only cause CM9 doesn't have working video yet, if video isn't a priority i'd go with CM9 for sure.
thebyani rom v3.2
All leaked ICS Roms based not worked to me for everyday use, I had bootloops, hans, freezes there and here... A little annoying. I would suggest CheckROM v6 based en XWLA4, its the best rom i've used!
Without any hesitation, I'd say Thebyani v3.2
It works like a charm, no lag/FC at all and great battery life ! All the bugs I met with other roms are fixed in this one. Give it a try !
I can't really say anything about ICS roms as the ones that I did test were still very buggy and not stable at all
But I have had my share of GB roms.
Started with Hydroxigen but couldn't get my keyboard to appear (I was a flashing n00b back then )
So I went to GingerMod v0.8, this rom was REALLY good for me. It was very fast, stable and in combination with Speedmod kernel a real battery-saver
Only thing I didn't like was that the Gingermod updates didn't work for me. I could download them and it would reboot into recovery and install them but I never noticed any difference.
Then I went to Checkrom RevoHD V6 together with Redpill and the Magic UV config (adapted to my own device obviously ) and I am still using this to this day. The Kitchen app works like a charm and I even have my Azerty samsung keyboard I really hated the AOSP gingerbread keyboard! No .com button?! Special characters and smileys on different locations? Yurg!
So my current and favourite Rom/kernel combo is: Checkrom RevoHD v6 + Redpill kernel
If you want the best GB stock for battery life and not cluttered up with all kinds of useless mods, then go with VillainRom 3.0 and siyah kernel.
If FM radio and video recording aren't important then CM9 rocks. All these people who complain of reboots fc's etc. haven't flashed it correctly
Best bet is to nandroid and then try them all, feed that addiction baby...................
I'm using official ICS beta (rooted) XXLPB as my daily driver since it was released. It works great, not bugs/hangs or any other crap.
Using Phone, Mobile Data, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS and Camera on a daily basis with no issues at all.

Resurrection Remix ics v9.4 black edition XXLPH 4.0.3
Omega ics latest base from samy
Guys could u also post your quadrant highscores (images appreciated)!!!
CM9 Nightly. best rom I had to use.
I use AndyX ROM 6.0 (based on XXLPH). It works perfectly, meaning no forcecloses and features like wifi, 2G/3G, camera, video etc. are all working.
Plus it has some nice visual additions, such as blue icons in notification bar and a nice shutter-like effect when the screen turns off.
I can only recommend it

ok so here im gonna give you guys the recomended roms and top 5 rom list for Samsung galaxy S1 ONLY! (based roms on ICS and 2.3.X)
THE BEST rom was chosen by considering ALL your needs: speed, design, good battery life, A LOT of features+settings+oc costum settings, updated.

update- the website has just updated! new information check this out (4/25)
TOP 5 roms (ICS)
AOKP rom (im using this now. my own experience- very good+stable rom.. a lot of settings)
Doc's Master ICS 4.0.3 (stable+fast.. have a lot of settings too)
gummy (never checked it)
MyICS (my own experience- have some annoying bugs and not so good)
Dark night ROM (not so fast and have some bugs)

True.
What is the definition of "true information" and "all roms are bug free and totally stable"?
(from OP)
Reading some posts in the threads for those roms/kernels makes me wonder...
Sent from my GT-I9000
Slim ICS is the Best
well I did not put CM9 cuz as far as I know, CM9 rom includes a lot of bugs doesn't it?
and Ive tried a lot of roms from here too
and if something is wrong- ill fix it
Some are running CM9 without "many" bugs. some say it's even stable enough to show to your friends.
On that bombshell everyone runs whatever they see fit, and just "cruising" through the DEV section one should make a pretty good idea what is being in the top used ROMs.
There is no this is better than this, for 80% of ppl owning a SGS1 probably what was pre-installed on their phone was better than it was for the rest of us "kids" playing with fire. From experience I tell you that what works for you is the best ROM - heck there are still strong supporters of FROYO (if you know what I mean ).
