New to galaxy S

Hey guys, i am new to galaxy S, before i had galaxy ace,
can u suggest me a good ROM

Hey!
I used at last XXJW4 (europe), based on the last official release from samsung. The original was not so bad - the customized version I found here on XDA: really amazing!
So just look for the last official release for your region (e.g. via KIES) and find a optimized version on XDA.
(sorry for my "english" - I hope you will understand and this would help)

You can try ics slim 3.9 or cyanogenmod 9 , the latest nightly. Both are solid and established roms. I prefer slim because of the included tweaks like variable resolution and some system menus.

SlimICS is good, or CM9/AOKP they're pretty popular.

Cm9

Keep in mind that you'll lose Sammy stuff.

cyanogenmod 9 is the wise choice i guess...!!!

Try slim, you won't regret it!!!!
Send from my Galaxy S with Slim ICS 3.9 + Semaphore 1.2.2

I think your best choice it's CM9 instaling gapps and samsung apps.. then if u find that smooth & fast.. try TWICS 3.01 or RemICS i haven't find any roms faster than those.. and they look like samsung stock roms.. and battery life it's Amazing (Just try 'till u find one thats fits your needs..)

I think first cm 10.2 has to be made stable in order to get miui on our phones.

Man you are slow i was only talking about we do not need cm10.2 to get miui...any aosp can do besides it will take some more time to perfect cm10.2 than making any other aosp rom for the 9500...........Get it.......:silly:

Agreed but as one of the users pointed out, we first need a stable aosp rom and only then miui v5 can be made available for our device. Plus cm 10.2 is the only aosp project that has made progress to quite an extent.
Anyway, Grarak says that even touchwiz can be used. Well, that is something new to me. Let us see what really happens.

Psyche Satisfaction
I used MIUI on my xperia arc s for a year, trust me guys its beautiful but bit buggy also. Samsung ROM is pretty much complete BUT its always a welcome to give our eyes a treat of using MIUI ROM.
Most of us bought device not only for using official firmware but to satisfy our PSYCHE of trying everything exploiting every bit of Device.
Developers Bring MIUI and fill the gap.

which rom/kernel are most recommended?

the fastest and snapiest one. i am about to install wanam lite

Fast is cm 10.2 but still alpha, i like crash and Arrow rom with perseus kernel.
Sent from my GT-I9500 using xda app-developers app

Most of the TW base ROMs are about the same. I've used Omega + persues from day one and got great battery life.. (6hrs+ screen time with like 30hrs standbye). Onto CM 10.2 now tho.
Also--- this should be moved to S4 General I believe.....

arrow is aosp themed, is very beautifil, until camera is fixed in cm 10.2 a'm using this.

I think you should try arrow rom or crash rom. They are great, smooth and the battery is great.
But i think wanam 1.8 has the battery best. I can use 2 days with 4 hour on screen. But wanam 1.8 is the old ver.

AOKP on Galaxy Y possible ?

Hey there, this morning, i was on Ace thread, looking for a CM Rom to port to our phone, then, i saw on the ace thread " 4.2.2 jb mr1 ..." i looked the thread then i saw a sweet rom AOKP based. I thinked " It should be great if we can port it to Galaxy Y " So i thinked about that all school time and, correct me if i'm wrong But aokp is like CyanogenMod i meant, i think we need first a Pure AOKP rom ( used as base ) then port the " 4.2.2 jb mr1 " rom from Ace. So there is my question : " Is there any way to build this " Pure AOKP " rom for our Galaxy Y ? " Simple questio, sorry if anyone think that's a newbie question. I've just a thing in mind
Thanks in Advance

So i suppose it's kindly hard to build an AOKP rom because of the libs used in AOKP are from Quadcomm that's it ? Or no... ? However, i think The Galaxy Ace have approximatly the same hardware as a Y. ( maybe a Qualcomm CPU ) ?

Can you provide a link ? Seriously i really wish to see some AOKP based roms on our SGY ( specially this " jb 4.2.2 mr1 " ) on Ace thread. This rom provide great UI changes settings from AOKP, apk's shortcuts on Lockscreen etc.. i never saw that on a Galaxy Y rom. If i can help to Bring AOKP on our phone, it will be awesome, unfortunally i don't really know too much on Android Developpement, but ! If someone can learn me something about Dev. Huge Thanks to him.

Aokp is based on aosp, just with a few more tweaks.

Aw, i got it So if we take AOSP Gingerbread by Spacecacker as base, we can easily make a AOKP Rom by theme it and tweak it no ?
But we can't have all of the AOKP Settings right ?
Even if i know i Android Dev. We just net to add few codes and. Jar basically. The suestion is. " Do the .jar are fonctionnal on Galaxy Y ? " i don't think so isn't it ?

Let me correct you both.
Basically AOSP means pure android, compiled from AOSP Google source.
AOKP ROMs are based off AOSP, but include many mods and tweaks.
Some come from all over the place, hence the name 'kang'. They are compiled originally from AOSP sources but highly modified.AOSP is pure Google android.
AOKP is a custom ROM project, like CM based on AOSP.
We need an Ics AOSP first, then AOKP shall run. It's not so easy as you think.

I don't think it's easy man, don't say that i just thinked about that few times ago when i saw cool AOKP Roms one Ace or even high-end Android phone like the S3. Then i started to think and i was right when i said AOKP Roms need first a Stable base like CM's Roms

[Q] Best Rom/Kernel Combination?

Any suggestions to the best combination of rom and kernel?

My signature and default samsung kernel

Nice
I've always wanted to try that one, but im stuck with Foxhound 1.2 because of the theme, i really like the dark theme, makes it look more premium
I'll be waiting for D3NnNy to upload the theme only so that I can try other ROMs.

Latest Echoe rom and Lean Kernel for me
