I9100G users Unite!

Introduction
I've had my I9100G for more than a week now and to date there's no hint of anyone working on a custom ROM or mod for it. I guess we'll have to resign ourselves to the fact that it's not really a popular model for the regular devs and if we want to get some mods or custom roms on our phones, we have to do it ourselves. I'm currently working on customising my phone, but since I have a day job and little actual experience in Android, it's going to take some time before I can put anything out. So I'm inviting fellow I9100G users to join me in the effort to get some mods developed for the I9100G.
Kernel
Firstly, the kernel. AFAIK, there are two available kernels so far for the I9100G - KH4 (Android 2.3.4) and KI1 (Android 2.3.5). There are rooted versions for both, but as of now only the KH4 one has CWM recovery. In addition, Samsung has released the source code for the KH4, but I'm yet to find the source code for the KI1. I'l like to develop for the KI1, but without a source code and CWM recovery for the kernel, efforts are limited. So I appeal to anyone who knows where we can get the source code for KI1 or can help get CWM on the KI1, please respond!
Mods
So far I've deodexed my phone running on KI1 and managed to get the battery percentage mod on it using the UOT. That one's pretty simple. This weekend I hope to try some more mods like the Advance Power Menu, for one. Once I get that done, I'll share on xda. Appreciate suggestions on what mod we can apply that's useful, but too complicated. If anyone manage to produce mods for your I9100G, appreciate if you could share.
Hopefully once we have a few mods done for the I9100G, we can consolidate them into a custom ROM for our phone.
Let's work together to make our phone better!

I would like to join with little experience on android .
I understand our target is to make custom Rom for the g model, but do you think its we can make it possible to flash other i9100 custom roms with sgx 540 processor ?
Can we have a list of things to start with to acheive that?
Btw, i tried deodexeding and i didn't success. Any advice on this .
Thanks

Hi ss219100g,
We can't flash I9100 custom ROMs into the I9100G. I tried flashing VillainRom onto mine, but I couldn't make it work. Needs someone with more knowledge and experience, I suppose. All I can try right now is try to apply various modes I pick up from xda onto my phone.
So far I've managed to apply the Battery percentage and Advanced Power Menu mods. I'll share them later today. I'm still looking around for the next thing to try. Any suggestions?
For deodexing, I used xUltimate. The link's here:
http://www.droidforums.net/forum/xeudoxus/47283-release-xultimate.html
Basically, I copied the contents of /system/app and /system/framework to \origi_frame\ and \origi_app\, run the tool, then copied the results back onto the phone. Remember to delete the *.odex files in the phone.

hi, i one of the new sgs2g user.
i would like to join and hoping if we could ever make some custom rom for this version.
but i still noob bout android, and this is my first android phone.
i was able to root my dzki1 kernel, using insecure kernel and abd command, but unable to flash cwm recovery, is there way to flash it?
and other thing, what is deodex and odex? i try google,but could not understand

It's not the one from Odia's thread, is it? I tried that one but it's rooted, but doesn't have CWM.

so meaning to say that until to-date there are no available custom ROM for the GT-I9100G devices??

Correct me if I'm wrong but I'm fairly sure the only issues you have are with te modem that's installed causing degraded data network service. I can test tonight as I have a 8100g laying around atm.
Scratch that it was the 9100T i was thinking of

In short:
1) Root
2) Deodex - use xUltimate
3) Use UOT Kitchen
Sorry I can't give more details. I'm away from my PC right now. Please search for the above tools.

have you guys tried flashing any custom themes ?
the only one working for me is battery %
and is there anyone working on an optimized kernel ? MyGKernel is very good but it isn't optimized and not overclockable as far as i know!

anyone tried this custom ROM? encountered the yellow triangle?

i did and that's normal, you get a yellow triangle because you installed an unofficial (insecure) rom or kernel, don't worry about it, it doesn't affect the stability of your phone in any way, it's just for saying that you have intalled a custom feature (rom or kernel)!

Can someone please help find a clean / stable rom

Hello I'm putting the finishing touches to my girls custom pink i9000 but now stuck on what rom to use ???
Really would like a non bolt loaded rom with the standard android bits and bobs
The only things I need is to flash a custom splash screen

Would like to say thanks if anyone can help me on this and hope you have a nice day

If it's for someone else, I also recommend a stock AOSP ROM.

Can anyone tell me a stable every day rom that they've used or are using ? ( not Samsungs the looks of the official android are much better )
And thanks upichie

Try stock JVT, semaphore 1.8 BM, all Samsung apps removed, acid tweaks, spb shell 3d launcher, very cool, very stable, stands out from from the usual crowd
Sent using TCP/IP

You can try stock 2.3.5.
Another option is cyanogen mod 7.1

This thread of xda is for I9000.
The OP also have the key word I9000.
Why suggest to use ROM built for I9100?
You are not collecting ban-points, are you?

Personally I think that the best ROM he should try is: Simple Beautyone.
And one advantage, as this is ROM for HD2, based on Windows Mobile 6.5, it is even more irrelevant for him than yours...

IMHO, use MIUI as its very clean..
Then flash MyUI EnhancerMOD v3.0

I am using it whole day today, with heavy use of wifi and 3g, battery 15% at 9pm (on single charge), and the speed is awesome.

Hi,
I have two roms I like to use:
Juwe's rom, now v6 version
Doctors rom, also v6 version.
Both rom are based on 2.3.5 JVT including Semaphone kernel 1.8.
Personally I prefer Doctors rom because it is very fast and the battery lasts for me 50-70 hours.

(Q)HDMI out on ics?

Am currently running CM9 1.5 and loving the stability and smoothness the from is giving me on my evo.
Wondering if there are any ics kernels that support the team win HDMI app that worked well for me running sense roms with a kernel that supported it.
I've looked around and can't find mention of an ics kernel that does the job. Am hoping I missed something and one of my fellow forum members could point me in the right direction. Thanks for your time!

Bump.
Anything?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA

Last time I read about this someone mentioned there is NO HDMI for ics right now. Not until and official ics kernel is released, I believe .if there is let me knowLol
So NO . That's y i keep cm7 on boot manager, I just boot it up when I wanna use HDMI.

[Q] ICS MIUI for Defy+ (GB Kernel)

Ok, I think the title is clear enough but, I'd like to know if there are any MIUI ROMs for the Motorola Defy Plus with a 2.3 (GB) Kernel. Thing is, I have Quarx's CM9 on Multiboot but I'd love to try ICS MIUI on it, but I understand I have to flash Froyo Kernel but don't know what would that do to my CM9 I'm so in love with.
I've searched all the threads on xda and the web but I haven't been able to find what I'm looking for.
Thanks!

Unfortunately Currently there is no miui build that works on gb kernel.
Sent from my MB526 using XDA App

Thanks for the reply! Is there another rom that I should try? I don't really know about another interface for 4.0 but it would surely be great if there were one.
Edit: I have another question, is there a way to install a froyo kernel on multiboot so i can keep cm9 (GB) on my default boot? I already have multiboot but I'm not sure if flashing wiui, for example, will damage the other rom.

Look at the miui ics thread by sesme
Sent from my MB526 using Tapatalk 2

Well as far as I know multi boot requires same kernel for the roms. I don't know if any recent development has changed it. You may check multi boot thread.
