for all i9100 international xda users please do not install ics 4.0.4 china release I9100ZCLPL
the odin will stopped at nand write
so wait for other official release
Amend the title to state the Chinese build - you will unnecessarily mislead those interested in the European build otherwise. And you need to substantiate your claim - this has been covered before.
Just because you didn't use http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1702479 doesn't mean you need to make a new thread.

Let me try this new ROM on my Xperia X10...
Wait!
Is it Xperia regular or HD?
Is it X10a or X10i?
Branded, unbranded or never branded?
Which kernel version?
Which baseband version?
Country?
To name a few...
----------------------------------------------
Things used to be a lot simpler a few months ago...
Today ROMs are being designed for different basebands. If I want to test another ROM I'll have to downgrade (or upgrade) baseband before I can install it with XRecovery.
I guess this will only come to an end when SE completely abandon us (if they haven't already). Probably all later development will be carried out on the latest baseband (if it's possible and if it brings best performance, improvements, etc.).
Of course I always take in consideration that devs (thank you so much jerpelea, zdzihu, trip and rdannar, to name a few) have a life. And that they don't have to update their personal projects.
Will a unification ever occur?

I've been trying to get the basics of the terminology used around the forums when describing the different parts of the Android OS.
There are still certain differences I will eventually grasp, such as the difference between ROM and Kernel.
A quick Google search sent me to the Android Developer Guide where a very clear illustration separates the Android stack:
(Forum rules forbid me from posting external links, I'll add the URL and image once I've graduated from Forum Newcomer)
What I still don't understand and I can't seem to find within the XDA forums or other forums in general is the separation of ROM and what's the relationship to the Baseband.
Is there a limitation to what can be included in a particular ROM? If so, is this defined by the Kernel? The Libraries? The handset maker?
This might not the correct forum or thread this question, but any help or point in the right direction will be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Hello. I am interested in building my own ROM. I have some computer knowledge, but I want to know, what tools and files do I need for creating one. So maybe someone can guide me or point me to a tutorials. I basically just want to try some things.
Is there a way to brick my phone by using a custom ROM?
Also, what is android 2.3.5? Google's latest is Android 2.3.3 .
Android Latest stable release
Tablets: 3.2 (Honeycomb)
Phones: 2.3.5 (Gingerbread) / 25 July 2011; 38 days ago
Latest Android release is 2.3.5 for phones
good new, should be more like you.
Latest android for smartphones is 2.3.5.
Regarding advices to build a new rom, nothing better than to speak to those that already did and have the knowledge (stcokwell, DZO, FFranco, Knzo, etc)
Search the posts of each rom and speak with respective developers.
Good luck and I waiting for your rom to test it
I'm interested too, but it requires more knowledge about linux. Kernels and so on.
So i'm thinkin is better to build kernels, there is sources, there is websites with how to and so o.. rom is more complex.
I'm bringing this thread up now.
I am currently downloading CyanogenMod's source, because of what I've read android.git.kernel.org is down. My first idea was to do a proper scene port of the latest Android. But well, this has better documentation anyway. So, I haven't got the source yet to browse, but is there a way to make a general build and if I understand correctly, it creates me a system.img? How to make it flashable by recovery? And if it fails to start, can I still get to the recovery? And about kernel, this has to be modified too, right?
And for last, if anyone has a good Android source code browsing/modifying e-book/video/whatever, can I have it?
-e-
I found that CyanogenMod can automatically make a signed .zip and on normal Android AOSP I can make it with "make otapackage". Is that right?
Any good read?

After a long wait Samsung has finally started testing Android 4.0.
Last week our “insider” presented us with XXKP1.
The Android version of this ROM is Android 4.0.1.
The build date is 7 december 2011.
As you may know of us we often get these leaks prior to release.
After we did some checks on it we can confirm that we’re dealing with a “CUSTOM” Samsung build.
We strongly advise people who only flash stock ROMs to not flash this.
As you all may know we only offer stock ROMs so you will not find this firmware on our usual firmware page.
We at Sammobile offcourse have tested this ROM in all curiousity.
Samsung uses Android 4.0 with their own TW-Launcher and Android 4.0 tweaks.
Below you will find a video review of this ROM.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ISAI6qbQm6U&list=UUzQl4TBDKoGyVhpL2ykCJgw&feature=plcp
What works in I9100XXKP1?
All the Basics work like calling , sms , internet and more.
Some applications havent been worked out correct so they will force cose on stress.
Because we are dealing with a “CUSTOM” ROM here it can occur that the phone will react very slow from time to time.
There is also the chance of some “RANDOM REBOOTS”
We at Sammobile advise people to not use thhis ROM for daily usage.
If you want to download this firmware then you can do so via the provided link below.
Again if you only flash STOCK ROMs then dont flash this.
Because you flash this rom with “unsecure” kernel the phone thinks its “CUSTOM” and will start counting on your custom counter.
You will loose your warranty bercause of this.

Thanks we have wait a lot
Appreciate the share, hope we can see much improved customs based on this.
I may be wrong but i cant see a difference between this rom and checkrom with 1.6 ics theme?
Not ttrying to be rude or anything
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
Please continue discussion of this ROM here in our General section
Thread closed.
Hey guys, really new here. Its been great reading all of your threads and choosing a ROM to install on my Acer A500. I have what is possibly a really dumb question so I appologize but will Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich (is it even out for installation?) run on the Acer Iconia A500? Isn't there a dev version out now? Thanks in advance!
P.S. does anyone know if I can get the Linux version of Gratuitous Space Battles to run on the Acer A500?
Please use the search tool next time, this has been discussed many times and your post is just spamming XDA.
Now, answering your question, rumor says Acer will be releaseing ICS on February (they have even confirmed so in their Mexican Tweeter account), who knows if they are serious this time. There are also a few A500 custom ROMs based on ICS, so hardware-wise, the A500 is more than capable of handling it.
Thanks. Moderators please feel free to delete this thread.
there are two threads that are on going about linux on the iconia.. One is in the dev section. the other i think is in the Apps and mods .
Ics does have a few roms out now..but none of them are complete.Neither of the two are on xda forums as stated above a quick google search will bring more results then asking in the forums...
There is no absolute to when and if .. we will get ics from acer..When it does I would suggest to not take the OTA . As its likely to not be able to be rooted from the start. IF when it does come the Developers will be all over it.. And we will see rom s that are rootable to be releases.
good luck
Hello everybody,
I post this thread here because I've got no permissions to put it on the right place (i9001 development forum). I only want to share with you something that, in my opinnion, is a little strange. Few days ago a new firmware for i9001 was released. It was called XXKQ6 and, supposily, was a new revision of the official XXKQ1. What I want to ask is why this "release" didn't appear in samfirmware.com. I've read in some webs it was a regional release but, in any case, it would be present in the firmwares relation, isn't it?
Its working very smooth on my device
i just won't install something what is not official...
i heared that it contains more bloatware...so I'm sure that I won't use it
we'll see how it works on the new broodROM RC4
