HC 3.2 P7310 P7310XAR P7310UEKJ5
Here is a stock 3.2 ROM for P7310 (WiFi) that I built from a system.img and boot.img from P7310XXKJ4(thanks nirogu325!). This is good for folks that like stock and can't flash with ODIN and for ROM bases\components etc.
CWM Recovery flashable (system and stock kernel included)
Install wipe caches, dalvik cache, and replaces the system partition. It will not touch /data unless you do so in CWM (see install below).
Deodexed
Zipaligned
Rooted + busybox
Removed the plethora of annoying widgets from the home screens that came from the factory.
Removed some DOA 0 byte APKs (AndroidTabletGNA_v1.apk, BoxAndroidApp.apk, WeatherBugTablet.apk, and SamsungHelpCenter_P7310_v001.apk)
Works great with my v2 kernel for HC 3.2 If you had my kernel already, you need to reflash it after flashing this zip since it contains the stock kernel.
Note: This ROM is deodexed. It will boot slow the first time and apps will load slower the first time you use them. It will then get faster, so give it a chance.

StockHC32_P7310XARP7310UEKJ5.zip
Backup:
Backup your existing ROM with CWM first.
Install Fresh:
Wipe data\factory reset from CWM recovery and flash the zip. When it boots, it will start the setup wizard like you just bought it.
Upgrade:
If you have stock 3.2 KJ4, you may be able to get way with just a flash without wiping data. It seems to be working OK for me. If you have any issues, I recommend installing fresh. This worked great for me as well.
As-is...I will provide no support for this stock ROM.
Thanks a lot! Gonna flash this tomorrow (almost 12am here lol). Will let you know how your kernel goes on my tab this time (crossing fingers).

Overcome CWM Recovery - Nandroid Backup procedure: Go to the CWM Recovery > Nandroid menu > Backup or Restore. This ROM is already rooted if that was your last question.
Curious little typo Samsung made in the MTP Application, when you connect it says "MTP initialisation" instead of initialization. This is also present on the previous KJ4.

Lol yeah. It was with a "z" in KHA. So far this firmware's quicker than KHA. Got it OC'ed (with your kernel) up to 1.4 and UV'ed -75 only the higher freqs. All is well.

This firmware was leaked by samfirmware.com (soon to be sammobile.com). It is a stock ROM as the title says, but it is a leak (as in let's say a beta firmware), a stable one as I've had it installed since the 3rd of this month. If you'd rather wait for an OTA then you're welcome, it's all your choice. Be sure to follow instructions and you'll be fine with no bootloops. Don't be afraid to ask if help is needed.
So..XAR = EU and KHA=US I assume?
I think I read on overcome thread, saying there is no hardware difference between regions...just localized apps....which means ROMs are interchangeable?
Thanks for your time, guys!
Hey Motley!
Will there also be a 3G version of this rom? I'd like to install a stock android 3.2 rom to my 7300 but I don't find a version that is flashable with CWM recovery.

US region is XAB me thinks. Oh and it doesn't matter which region you choose since you can choose your preferred language at the startup wizard.

Sorry, this is just a stock Wifi-only ROM that is prepped for CWM flashing. nirogu325 pointed you in the right direction for the equivalent stock ROM for the 7300 (3G), but you have to use ODIN to flash.
The 3G folks really need someone to do some CWM conversions for the stock 7300 ROMs so you don't have to use ODIN all the time. ODIN is great for low level recovery when all else fails, but it really sucks for day to day use as well as for avid ROM flashers since you have to re-root and re-install recovery etc. If you do go through all these things, at least make sure you do a CWM backup so you have a quick way to flash back to stock next time.
When you say stock do you mean no TouchWiz or stock as in just a rooted/deodexed version of the standard Samsung ROM? I'm looking for a plain Honeycomb 3.2 ROM. I'm downloading this anyway but if someone responds before it'll save me a bit of time Thanks!

There are no 8.9 ROMs that lack TouchWiz yet. If you want lag out, change launchers. I suggest ADWLauncher EX due to its new hardware acceleration functions in tablets.
Yeah I've been using ADW and its great. It's just a few little things with TouchWiz that I don't like... I want a stock (black) launcher bar on the bottom and black system menu & browser.

NOTE: I only have the 7310 (Wi-Fi) unit so this is not tested for the 7300 KJ5.
I can help you out with the bar and toggle menu, but not the browser and Settings, I'm afraid. Here's a CWM flashable I made with images from the old Overcome 1.2 ROM and a revert just in case.

3.2 ROM issue with IMAP email client
Hey all,
I flashed this ROM and it works great with one exception. I use IMAP email which was working fine in 3.1 and works fine now with a 3rd party email client but with the mail app in this ROM all IMAP folders are empty. Sending emails through smtp okay but syncing IMAP results in only retrieving folders but all empty.
Any help or alternative is welcome, I don't want to go back but my only option is now POP or 3rd party IMAP app (which I don't like - they are all for lower phone resolution).
Thanks
First of all sorry for the noob question, because I'm really a newbie in this kind of mod.
Ok let's get to the problem. My Ideos X5 is running on Froyo,and wanna upgrade it to official GB stock roms.
After reading and searching in this web, I knew that some users found trouble after flashed it with the stock(can't go to pink screen, can't root, can't instal CWM, and the worst is it bricked their phone etc).
the reason why i'm gonna ugrade to official GB instead of straight to instal custom rom is some rom requirements need my phone to be upgraded into official GB. But then I've found many kinds of stock roms in the web such as B526, B138, B528, B16. since this situatian has turned my will to upgrade my phone, I just wanna know what is the most stable and safest official gingerbread rom for Ideos X5 out there, that won't brick my phone of course.thanks for the responds/advices
best regard

It is very difficult to brick your phone, I have to tell you, if it's possible.
I installed dozens of ROMs, some very good, some others plain bad, and my phone still works perfectly.
Today I am using Dzo's excellent ICS Aurora 2.11a which makes my friends envy my phone and has none of the GB bugs.
So, my advice is try some ROMS and find for your self which suits you best.
Thanks a lot lateris....
so what should i do first? instal the official rom first or straight to the custom rom (miui/cyanogenmod etc) cus some recent custom roms require my phone to be upgraded into official.
At the moment, you could try EZET's cyanogen custom rom if still on Froyo. It is cm7.2 based which is gingerbread 2.3.7 and it is very good. Runs fast and is very smooth. AFAIK everything works now, even tethering.
Otherwise you should upgrade to official gingerbread first if you want to get the ICS based roms that are here (like Aurora) or are in the works. I would use b526 as it is the last version to be able to root easily using superoneclick root and then install custom recovery and custom roms.
Most of the phone brickings with the official update happened because of custom partitions being installed and updating using the beta gingerbread release, you should be fine to update safely if your phone is still on official froyo.
that means a lot Mr. Paul....thanks 4 ur advice

I believe it is difficult to root B528. Of the two, I suggest you use B526

It's very easy to root B528. You need B528_root.rar from somewhere in forums. Try search general section.

Do you need Gingerbread specifically? The Aurora ICS ROM is already stable and there are no major bugs - sometimes the mobile internet connection does not work until the next restart, but this problem already existed on Gingerbread too. Device encryption does not work either.
The ICS ROM one of the fastest ROMs for this device, I see no reason to install an older version on purpose.
Once again the process:
1) Install a official huawei gingerbread ROM, this is done to update the kernel. You need this for the newer ROMs. This is done by putting a update file onto your sd-card (into the dload folder), instructions are provided by huawei.
The first step simply is done to update the kernel, this happens automatically. Be careful though, you want to use a specific file and not the newest version from huawei as this complicates things. If you do not know which file to use I am happy to provide you with a link.
2) Start the phone when the update is finished. Follow the setup, do not configure a wireless connection, google account or anything else. When you are at the homescreen, attach the device to your computer and remove the dload folder, the update is already done. This step is important.
3) Now you install a recovery program that manages your ROMs (make backups, delete ROM, install new ROM etc.). You use this here, instructions are included and should be easy to follow: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1377390
4) Try to start the recovery mode and see if you can move up and down with the volume buttons (at the menu). Now you have the updated kernel and a working recovery program, that is all you need.
5) Download the zip-file of the ROM you want to use (I suggested ICS earlier) and copy it onto the sd-card. Within recovery mode you can now select the zip-file (do not extract it!) to install the new ROM. Before you do that, you select to wipe data, cache and under advanced the dalvik cache. This is important.
Now you have to wait quite a while when the phone starts for the first time with the new ROM. Just wait a few minutes and do not interrupt this. You will be greeted with the setup screen of your new ROM and can now configure wireless, google account etc.

XphX, and how about rooting? Don't you need to root your phone first? (I'm a leek)
You do not need to do that, the ICS Aurora comes pre-rooted and the other custom ROMs come prerooted too - just read their description.

Hey there, I have been flashing my HTC Desire HD for a long time with different ROMs. I found it kinda annoying to always check certain websites for new updates, manually download and flash them just to find out that half of the stuff was buggy.
Now I got the Nexus 4. I loved the idea of having fast OTA updates. But now I want to flash a new kernel.. which means I got to install a custom recovery. But then OTA will not work anymore.
So I wonder:
Should I stay with
CWM + Stock ROM + Custom Kernel (no OTA update but no problem with buggy custom ROMs)
CWM + Custom ROM + Custom Kernel
Everything stock
Cyanogenmod is nice but for me it doesn't have any big advantages over stock 4.2 ? So I really wonder what you guys would recommend? What are your reasons to do a "certain setup" ?
Thanks
You don't need a custom recovery to flash a kernel.
It can be flashed with fastboot leaving everything else stock.
You still wouldn't be able to install the OTA without flashing the stock kernel again though.
Oh crap.. so as soon as I change ANYTHING... no OTA updates anymore
Hmm... I guess I will stay with custom kernel + flashing stock ROM then :/ Is there any way to automatically check for updates tho?
Thanks

Yeah you will get the notification and it will try to install but it will fail and reboot if you aren't 100% stock.

+1, TWRP is great :highfive:
TWRP is the way to go!
But then I have another problem (well I already have it but..):
I would like to use ROMmanager.. after all it might be able to check for rom updates & flash them "automatically" (stock + custom?). I am not sure if it could also check for kernel updates?
Anyway, it seems to work only with CWM ? Altough it doesn't seem the already installed CWM on my Nexus 4 :S
Anyone?
I would never use ROM manager. Not a good program. Use a custom recovery, and if you want lots of customisation then I would recommend AOKP Rom as it is just as fast and stable as the stock ROM but with a whole host of customisation options.
Beauty of this phone is that you can go back to complete bone stock with no issues, I did, but missed all the customisation and put AOKP back on lol.
alright I uninstalled it. I just hoped for some "app" which could look for all kind of "custom" updates and install them automatically (kernerl,rom,...)
If you're interested in CM, I think delta CM will allow you download only the changes made to the project.
Also, why do people say to use TWRP instead of the more tried and true CWM? It seems to have a lot of sex appeal to some recently, and there doesn't seem to be a clear cut answer. Is there added functionality?
Hi
Just wondering if there is an easy option yet of adding google play to my advent vega which is running its original firmware.
Yes u can flash gapps externally, if u are rooted and on cwm... Btw i too own pantech vega but i have play installed @ stock. Are u sure u are completely on stock?.?

Yeah i am completely at stock
Oh there are various methods to do that, by using titanium or by cwm recovery both require root.
Check out this : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=931337
But that thread is old now you can flash complete google apps package /gapps from cwm recovery.. (gapps package can be downloaded according to your os)
If u need any help ping me.

More important question:
Are you sure you want to remain on stock?
If you want to upgrade your system with Google Apps, why not do the whole remake from ground up. It will be the same difficulty level as flashing Google Apps.
I was on stock for a year or two and It's no problem once you ROOT and flash Google Apps (I did everything myself), or just use MoDaCo's prebake with everything included.
But this is very very old stuff.
I have currently installed VegaBean Beta 6 and it's miles ahead of stock (don't forget to read installation instructions and partition your SD card correctly).
The only problem I have with this ROM is that it's eating my battery, but stock was also eating it.
You can also try the newest CM10.1 based ROM.
And if that just doesn't work for you, you can always flash stock firmware back (but I highly doubt you will ever do that once you go the custom ROMs way... stock rom... ewww ).
I'm still on a stock rooted 4.2.2 Rom and I need to upgrade to 4.4
I've really had no issues with the touchwiz and I'm running the KM kernel, but from what I was told I need to unroot to get 4.4. I don't know if that's true or not, but seeing as you don't have that many touchwiz roms here maybe I should go with ASOP instead? I was looking at the master list of roms but are the roms carrier dependent?
but from what I was told I need to unroot to get 4.4.

You can update your phone through settings (as long as you didn't mess with system files and apps) but you will definitely lose root and get knox.

Yes, roms are carrier dependent (with the exception of CM11 nightly builds, which are now unified across all carriers, the rest provide separate builds for different carriers)

My phone is rooted but running the stock rom, when it came time to upgrade it would not upgrade at all, I forgot what it would hang at but it ended not doing anything, so getting tired of seeing the upgrade was ready to be installed I hid the message.
But now I need the upgrade because of Google Wallet and tap & pay.
So as far as getting another rom I assume I should be just looking under my carries forum here instead of the master list? Now having said that.. OK say I find a ASOP with 4.2 can I just use that instead of unrooting and then doing the update?
In other words installing a custom ASOP rom would still get me on 4.2 as well?

It depends on what version of android the rom features. CM11 for example is a 4.4 KitKat rom so if you install CM11 you would have 4.4 AOSP rom that is close to the original AOSP rom you would find on Google devices.
For some reason I can't boot my phone into recovery.. I'm holding vol up, home and power and I see it saying booting recovery in the upper left but if I keep holding the buttons the screen and the phone just turns back off again.
*edit
I just noticed I use TWRP Recovery so I think I have to start it from the phone being on.
Well this is odd.. OK so I moved the zip file to the root of the SD card and looking at the recovery and it's not listed under the root of the SD card.. I don't get it.
Oh never mind forgot the setting to switch to SD card
