Anyone out there into rooting/flashing custom rom/kernels on android phones/tablets?

I am currently running jds nexus s kang of CM9 on my fascinate and team DRHs brand new AOSP build of ICS with the. 39 kernel. So far it is nice and smooth but both still ha e some small issues that need worked out. After going ICS I don't think I could ever go back to a gingerbread rom.

I do miss wifi tethering on My fassy though. I can't wait until that issue is fixed.

Anyone else?

I just had to crack open my gtab for a hard reset. This build is still a bit unstable but it flys.


If anyone has questions about rooting an android phone feel free to ask.

I'm an iPhone user but I do have an HTC Desire that I play with from time to time. Currently running Android v2.3.5 (GRJ90) built from AOSP, Linux kernel 2.6.35.13. It's mostly a stock AOSP build with some bug fixes and small mods added. No HTC sense whatsoever.

Yeah I used to run cm7 on my evo before I upgraded to a epic 4g touch. Now I use a cm7 kang on it waiting for official cm7/9 for it. Aosp is much better then the crap stock firmware IMO

Agree. I am downloading an aosp ics build for my fascinate now.

The fascinate has such an awesome Dec community. We already have 4 ice cream sandwich roms and glitch kernel is coning out soon for ics

I haven't checked for a while but my next step will be trying to find a nice, lite, stable ICS build for my 'old' Desire. It's a shame they dropped support for the Desire so soon, even the iPhone 3GS runs iOS5 smoothly.

Sadly a lot of android devices get support dropped before it is their time

My charge was a feature phone when it came out and its not getting ics ....hell it barely got gingerbread.

I love modding things. It started back when my wife was out of town about 8 or 9 years ago and I made my xbox (which I still use to this day) to have XBMC on it. Then came the WII well yeah that was modded to. Now I am into android and linux on my laptop. Hello ecigs and getting ready to build my evercool as soon as my parts get here from china. lol I love it

It is but it looks so darn nice lol. It runs pretty nice if you have a gig of ram to work with.

Doing a nandroid right now. About to flash a new ics rom. Hopefully wifi tethering works on this one.

Captivated CM7, no bloat. Performance clocked.

When is the last time you saw a snapdragon 1GHZ pull 2400's on quadrant?

I have a buddy into this stuff. It's all Greek to me. I have the Tmobile G2 Android. It works fine. I see little benefit to changing the way it works. Tell me what the advantages are to the rooting?

Running bigxie 4.0.3 ics on mine at the moment, love the fact I can flash what I want to my phone. Best way to see what you like.

Free tethering, increased battery life, over clocking or under clocking ,no ciq freedom to do what ever you want to do with your phone

Bumpin it up! Like OP, I've got a Samsung fascinate (galaxy S) running ICS. AOKP build 28 is fantastic, can't wait to get on 4.0.4 now that it got pushed to AOSP.

I didn't buy my first phone until Android hit the scene... I never needed/wanted a mobile phone, I waited until it was a viable mobile computing device

Just over 2 years ago I bought a Samsung Moment and rooted it about 5 days later... about a year and a half later I upgraded to a 4G Evo and then a couple months later to my current SGS2 (I love this phone!)

I'm running the 2.9.2v of this build [ ROM ] Calkulin's E4GT v3.0 [ EL29 l Fast l Tweaked l Battery Saver Script ] - xda-developers I need to upgrade to the new 3.0 once I'm sure it's solid.
