ROMS
Android Open Kang Project (AOKP):
XDA: here
RootzWiki: here
by: Romanbb
Notes: Recommended by me. Ensures best stability and amazing performance. Currently on 4.0.3
Codename Android:
XDA: here
by: AndroidUser00110001
Notes: None yet.
Apex v1.0.0: Custom Batteries, Network ADB, + MORE:
XDA: here
by: bigxie
Notes: Taken from original post:
This is a generally stock ROM with mods chosen to add to functionality without detracting from the Ice Cream Sandwich experience that Google
envisioned. I [bigxie] built this ROM from AOSP, merged in mods from CM9, AOKP, GummyNex, RootzBoat, and other ROMS, to create what I feel is a perfect mixture of stock feel and helpful customizations.
I had a lot of fun building, testing, and running this ROM. I hope you all enjoy it as much as I do!

I'm finding it increasingly difficult ti distinguish between which things work with the CDMA/LTE Nexus vs. which work with the GSM Version. Maybe the sections should be broken down by device to make it easier. I would hate to accidently load something that only works on the GSM device and screw up my phone.

hey dude, thank you for your time here. I would like to throw a suggestion at you. You should split these up into GSM and LTE because one person making a mistake and well... it could screw things up for them.
I really don't like the way xda is doing this gsm/lte thing, there needs to be more of a seperation so that there is less clutter and confusion.(I'm talking about the main forum threads being segregated).
In for later
Really confused

I'm so in agreement. Maybe XDA should have a GSM and an CDMA thread.
I have a Droid Razr rooted (so easily to root I might add) which is so cool. "
Everything works to tea. Battery Life is 2 days with heavy power use, nav, phone calls, golf course range finder, internet etc! but also I'm also getting a Galaxy Nexus next Wednesday ( very excited and yes I'm going to have 2 LTE devices) and so far after reading all the root and hack stuff I'm left in the dust, just way too complicated. Being a Noob and reviewing what the GN has to offer I'm thinking why bother with the GN and staying with the Razr. I'm sure I'm pis.ing you'all off as this is a GN forum. I should note that I've rooted many different Androids devices and have jailbroken many different iPhones in the past to get the best they could offer but my head is spinning trying to figure this all out. If it were simple and I knew that my with my "Verizon Galaxy Nexus I'm in the right forum (GSM or CDMA) I may keep my GN and be very happy and happily try to tweek the phone...but as of now I'm kinda confused.
PS... Presently I've had a few Martinis
ON A VERY PERSONAL NOTE:
MY DEEP APPRECIATION FOR ALL THOSE THAT GIVE US VALUABLE AND VERY, VERY COOL WAYS TO MAKE OUR DEVICES GET TO THE SUPERMAN STATUS...
You cool tecknofob_delicious hack fiend_oids I bow down to you, and I always hit the donate button when I have been helped.

I also think GSM and LTE should be split into 2 different forums. I've downloaded an LTE instead of GSm already, thankfully noticed before it was finished downloading.
Another request to split up GSM/CDMA. Or maybe a polite request to the developers to point out in the thread title which they are developing for. Most say, but some do not.
Thanks

Well from development perspective, all these ROM's are always in the stage of constant development so they are not finished On the other hand, some ROM's like MIUI or AOSP should get people's attention in order to help developers or give them some donations to improve their work.
This is great. However, do you think it might be useful to add some more information regarding the usability status? For example, the MIUI and AOSP ROMs aren't fully-functional, so perhaps a note stating that they're in development or alpha stage? Granted, someone can figure that out by going to the thread and reading, but it might be helpful nonetheless. I know some others have mentioned this and the OP also clarified a bit, but it would hopefully prevent any confusion.
Thanks for putting this together. Let me know if you need help maintaining this going forward as it will likely become a bit more time consuming as more ROMs come out.

Was about to type something along these lines also.
People might check this post and go "Oh MIUI, lets flash it" then "AMG WHERE IS MY SOUND" or what ever is missing
great
just a note
lite´ning is pointing to miui
all say thanks but nobody really cared to test? lol
I think Bmarko's ROM (aside from the MIUI) should be added here as well [ROM] << XWKF1 1.1, XWKE7 - bmarko82 & muveszur >>. The link is http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1122025
Nice list by the way. Also nice to see more and more Roms available to SGS2

Suggestions
Great initiative that was missing in SGS II section, Thanks a lot
May I suggest you add more details : version, date of update, brief description etc....
And also a good idea would be to include Kernel versions available etc...
You can have a look on what was done for the Desire here, and the Nexus S here
What do you think about it ?
Edit : Also please make this a sticky
I will add more info in the next few days and ask some of mods to stick this thread.
We should make this into a poll

That is purely their own fault. If they don't even bother read the description of the ROM then they shouldn't even bother flashing it . So if people really can be as stupid as you state, then BAN THEM
This thread should be up to date with everything we currently have available. If there is anything that you don't see here, and think it should be, send me a PM and I'll get it added!
Your One-Stop-Shop for all things Hercules!
First, a few disclaimers! READ THESE FIRST!
~Anything you do to your phone is your own fault! Neither myself, nor the developers whose modifications are listed below are fiscally, morally, emotionally, or any other '-ly' responsible for what happens to you, your phone, or your mother!
~Some of these guides will be using a program called ODIN or Heimdall. These are incredibly powerful programs and can save you from what would/should be a brick. THEY CAN ALSO VERY EASILY BRICK YOUR PHONE BEYOND ANY RECOVERABLE STATE! Use at your own caution! I recommend reading extensively and asking questions BEFORE using them!
~There are probably more disclaimers I should add so....
OK! We've got all the un-fun stuff out of the way, so lets get started!
~~~~~~~~~~~~
A note for Devs: If I haven't noticed your ROM, kernel, theme, or mod and you'd like it added to this list feel free to PM me and I'll get it up as soon as I can. Also, if I HAVE listed your work and you would like me to modify or even remove the listing, just let me know!
ROOTING!
HOW-TO-ROOT-and-UNROOT
Don't ask for mirrors!!! They can be found HERE!
ROMS!
To start with here, lets talk about a bit of lingo that will come up and new-comers will have questions about!
kabuk1 said:
Rooted: Rooting grants you read/write access to system files & allows you to delete system apps & have much more control over the phone. Think of it like the program files folder on your computer- you know how when you access it for the 1st time you get that "you should not modify these files" message? Rooting grants you access to the equivalents of those files in Android.
Deodexed: Every APK has an accompanying .odex file that is a part of each app. They're mainly used to save space & speed up boot time by sort of preloading stuff. Deodexing merges the .odex files back into the APKs & makes it easier to replace files, install themes, and whatnot.
Zip-aligned: Zipalign is an archive alignment tool that optimizes the way APKs are packed. Zipaligning allows the system to interact with apps a lot more efficiently, thus speeding up the system.
Su: The abbreviation for the superuser app that allows you to grant root permissions to apps that require it, and manage permissions for those apps.
Busybox: Provides additional commands & Linux utilities.

Now for the roms!
If a ROM is no longer used/updated or is no longer hosted on this website, it will be removed from this guide. It's nothing against anyone but this thread is on XDA for XDA.

Kernels!
A note about custom kernels: Due to physical differences in each device, some kernels will run great on some devices and will not run very well on others. Do NOT bash a developer because you couldn't get [insert kernel feature] to work on your device! Its a physical limitation of your device! Different kernels will run differently so try them all but always, always, ALWAYS backup before flashing anything!

Is anyone else having issues with a "partial" root? I can view files in the various folders, but lack the ability to delete. I have researched the threads and tried the fix permissions method, reflashing the recovery file, and installing SU to no avail.

The file system needs to be set to RW (read write) instead of RO (read only). Apps like root explorer make doing all that sooo much easier.

First off, a few questions: What are you trying to delete and what are you using to delete? If you're trying to delete applications from the /system folder and are getting a permission denied error its because you need to remount that folder as read/write not read-only.

I've never heard of/used that one...try using titanium backup to delete the apps? It doesn't require you to remount the file system.

ROMS
Android Open Kang Project (AOKP):
XDA: here
by: Romanbb
Notes: Recommended by me. Ensures best stability and amazing performance. Currently on 4.0.3
Apex v1.0.2: Custom Batteries, Network ADB, + MORE:
XDA: here
by: bigxie
Notes: Taken from original post:
This is a generally stock ROM with mods chosen to add to functionality without detracting from the Ice Cream Sandwich experience that Google
envisioned. I [bigxie] built this ROM from AOSP, merged in mods from CM9, AOKP, GummyNex, RootzBoat, and other ROMS, to create what I feel is a perfect mixture of stock feel and helpful customizations.
I had a lot of fun building, testing, and running this ROM. I hope you all enjoy it as much as I do!

Eight lines down this one says "What you need: Deodexed Custom ROM on ITL41F Base, Nandroid Backup". Mike's LTE ROM is Deodexed ICL53F, so I don't think this will work either.
This is gonna be a nice thread if you keep it updated. Much appreciated

No problem. We need a thread like this. It will be even more fun once more Dev's start writing for LTE.
I added to my original post. Stuff I looked at using from GSM, but I don't think will work and where the info was that makes me not willing to try.

Sorry for all the extra post, but post #2 on Mike's ROM's thread has a list of add-ons he has published for him ROM. I've used a few and just like his ROM, they work great. Maybe we should add these to the list of Mods you started.

Here is the kernel/baseband from the 4.0.2 OTA:
http://minus.com/mLg8Rmrh7
In order to install, place phone in fastboot by powering down the phone, holding the volume up & down keys, then holding down the power button. Next, plug phone into usb port, and use the following commands to transfer them to the phone (extract files first):
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash radio radio-toro-i515.ek02.img
fastboot flash radio-cdma radio-cdma-toro-i515.ek05.img

You might want to remove the link to the franco kernel, its only compatible with 4.0.3 builds, I don't think we have any of those for CDMA yet

There are a few, but they're not posted on XDA. I've tried three 4.0.3 ROMs so far, and at least 3 or 4 separate kernels for it.
I've tried:
Roms - Kang, AOSP 4.0.3 (forget team name), and the GummyNex rom
Kernels - Matr1x, Francisco, Faux123, Fabolous
I can dig more later if you'd like for links, but prob not good taste to link to other sites. Just thought I'd share.
Hey everyone,
My name is Mohit Rohatgi, and I consider myself a technology enthusiast who essentially lives on these forums I thought that since I had spare time while I learn to code, I would create this thread throughout many different forums listing the different ROMs, Kernels, Mods, etc available for different phones to make life easier for users who enjoy customizing their phones to the fullest extent.

Team EOS XOOMICS 4.0.4 Stingray_cdma MZ600NIGHTLIES
Welcome to the evolution of TiamatXOOM.
With the AOSP release of Android 4.0 begins the next dawn of the Android operating system. And with this release comes Team EOS, the natural evolution of the TiamatXOOM development team.
It is the goal of Team EOS to develop and maintain the highest performing and most stable AOSP based rom for an array of platforms. The launching point for this development effort is the Motorola XOOM.
For the latest news on Team EOS Xoom releases make sure you follow @teameos on twitter and on IRC on Freenode in #xoom.

NOTE: Team EOS, it’s members, friends, dogs, cats, and associates are in no way responsible for any loss of data or device functionality. Use this at your own risk!
--
A quick note on Nightlies: NIGHTLIES ARE DEVELOPMENT BUILDS. They are automatically generated once every 24 hours and represent the compilation of the latest commits to the code repository. While every effort is made ensure that the commits that are accepted are stable and do not have a negative impact to the overall performance and function of the builds it is not possible to test every aspect of a commits impact to the overall repo prior to it’s inclusion in a given build. As a result it is entirely possible that instabilities may be introduced as a result of a given days commits. That is the nature of the nightly system, and the risk that is taken using the latest code changes to the project.
EOS Xoom is an AOSP based rom. It is developed and maintained by Team EOS and is the culmination of our own in house development efforts.
Team EOS Xoom Nightly builds: http://goo-inside.me/devs/teameos/roms/nightlies/stingray_cdma/
G-Apps Package
Because this is an AOSP based rom Google Apps are not included in the base rom. To install Google Apps please flash the following package after installing the base rom:
Use the latest available gapps package available from http://goo.im/gapps
*Note - You will need to re-flash G-Apps after you flash an updated nightly build. You can do this before you reboot after the installation of a new nightly.
Also note that if you are coming from an earlier G-Apps package you will need to wipe prior to installation of this package in order to avoid FC issues.
--
Features:
Because these are nightly builds the included features are constantly evolving. Change logs are generally generated on a daily basis.
Change logs can be viewed at http://nightlies.teameos.org/changelogs/
For the most up to date and comprehensive listing of the changes included in this rom please visit http://review.teameos.org
Kernel:
Tiamat ICS Xoom kernel
Support for OC;Under/Overvolt
Governors: lagfree, interactive, conservative, ondemand, userspace, performance
Kernel Note: In compliance with GPL kernel source can be found at: http://git.tiamat-dev.com/tegra2/tiamat-xoom/
--
Installation Notes:
These builds are designed to be installed from your favorite recovery (Solarnz R4c, Rogue, Clockwork)
Perform a full wipe (read Factory Reset) prior to installing this over ANY Honeycomb based rom (this includes all Tiamat roms)
Please note that due to fundamental changes Google has made to the way Android works there are certain issues that cannot be resolved without additional components from Google and the hardware manufacturers.
BUGS!
If you find strange or otherwise unexplained errors please report them here: https://bugs.teameos.org/ Please include logcats and as thorough a description of the issue and what lead up to the issue as possible. With out this we will be unable to track down these errors.
FEATURE REQUESTS!
We need YOU, yes YOU to help us build the best AOSP rom out there. Have an idea for a feature you want to see implemented then let us know!
Team EOS Feature Request
Changing the Stock Motorola Dual Core Boot Logo Splash Screen:
While not a necessary feature of the Team EOS ICS builds make sure you check out the Team EOS Motorola Xoom Boot splash utility in the Android Market:
EOS Motorola Xoom Boot Splash
Want to contribute to the Eos rom? Well you can!
Just follow http://teameos.org/?page_id=6 to checkout our source code, and information on how to submit changes for review.
Welcome to the XOOM evolved. Welcome to Team EOS.
NOTE: THIS IS FOR VERIZON 3G DEVICES ONLY. NOT DEVICES UPGRADED TO 4G
3G and Team Eos FTW!
My 3G is working perfectly and exactly as slow as I remember it!! Thanks Team Eos! Here are a few things I noticed through testing:
When connected to wifi, I still have a connection to the 3G network (data is not active, but the bars are showing at the same time as the wifi bars, which the honeycomb version never did).
When I open notifications, the wifi bars show a grey 3G logo on the upper left)
Ran speednet and got 1.8Mbps down and .8 up (not that I would think the ROM would affect speed much…)
Strangely, I did not have to go through activation - it just started working automatically after disconnecting wifi.
GMaps and location services for HD Widgets worked perfectly.
Even the My Verizon app logged in successfully and showed data usage
Torch worked - didn't notice that was fixed in wingray 37…
Probably more related to new 10.3 Gapps, but the flashing "Updating" arrow never goes away now unless I swipe it…
Awesome! Appreciate all the hard work you guys have been doing!
EDIT: Only issue seems to be the device isn't going into deep sleep (When in airplane mode). Everything else is working great!

When I was still on 3G (before all the December ICS ROMs hit) I would always turn on airplane mode before turning on WiFi. Does that help your issue on this ROM?
retarded question here
So let me get this straight... MZ600 is OG Xoom with 3G only and what version is it after you have the 4G upgrade? Is it MZ602 then? Even better question since this is my unit OG Xoom with 4G upgreade uhm What rom is available from eos for me?

No we do not support SVN nor do we endorse it. You will need to download the entire rom.

Hey all you XoomBabys out there...
OK, I think we have all been stupid long enough. The time has come to start sharing some knowledge properly!
With the kind blessings of Team Eos I have created the Team Eos Xoom Wiki to support the Team Eos roms for the Wingray, Stingray and Stingray CDMA tablets from Motorola. The information here will be growing and changing pretty quickly, and best of all it will be generated by ALL OF US. All you need to do is come to the site and sign up as a Wiki User (dead simple and absolutely without cost) and then you can add your own thoughts, knowledge and tips to the Wiki to help out your fellow Xoomer.
Now we have a central source for the change logs for each build along with places for YOU to add your experiences and feedback. YES! YOU! YOU MATTER, KIDDO!
Thus far we have a page for the Nightly builds from each of the three device flavors and it is just DYING for you to come add your own experiences and issues with each Nightly. In addition we have a How To page (currently a bit drafty) for you to post your advice and guides...but this is just the beginning.
Find the Team Eos Xoom Wiki at http://eosxoom.pbworks.com
Come join the Wiki team TODAY and start adding your feedback. Remember however that your additions may be edited for speling and TONE, goddammit! XDA is a cruel, heartless wilderness of geekishness. We have to help one another if we are going to get out of here alive..or at least with some data minutes left.
Let's get to work, kids!
That URL again is...
http://eosxoom.pbworks.com
Love you guys. Much appreciation goes out to Team EOS. I haven't encountered any bugs yet, other than the wifi/3g icon which seems to be fixed in the latest nightly. Thanks for all the hard work! The Xoom community just wouldn't be the same without you guys.
can anyone post the vega sound so i can make it my notification sound on my iPhone ;D
