Here is the system dump & custom TAR of the ICS XXKP8 ROM that was leaked for the international version. This version will boot on our phones but without a CDMA kernel, there will no data, wifi, CWM, etc, so this is meant for DEVS\POWER USERS ONLY to play with.
DO NOT TRY FLASHING THESE FILES UNLESS YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING, DON'T COMPLAIN IF YOU DON'T KNOW HOW TO REVERT TO A WORKING ROM AS YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED
GT-I9100XXKP8_4.0.3_IML74K.7z - System dump plus zImage
GT-I9100XXKP8_4.0.3_IML74K.tar - Flashable through ODIN
interesting, thanks for this. how far do you suppose we are from a somewhat functional ICS build?
ninja edit: first!
Oh man, thing's are getting hot in the kitchen.
So just a quick question: Why wont this won't brick our phones? Why have their been so many people with bricked phones for flashing international ROMs?
Other then that, awesome work. Just saw your Stock EL29 repack. Youre on fire !
Sweet, great job calkulin... you the man.
I'll do a quick review video of these for sure
This is a good starting point. We need to someone who can hack the 2.3 kernel to run Android 4.0

Because this is just the kernel & system files. If they flashed the complete tar(modem, bootloader, etc), then they definitely will cause a lot of issues
When you get that one bastardized kernel, it'll be good for all international ports to use for awhile til we get source
Has anyone been able to DL the .tar?

It has it's issues, front cam doesn't work(main cam works tho), rotation is inverted, no data, no wifi, etc but at least we get a feel for what the official ICS update will be like once it's released. If we get a working kernel, then fixing those issues wouldn't be that hard as I have fixed them before on the EVO ports but until we get a kernel, I'm not even going to start trying

Kernel is the problem. Need to try to compile a kernel that will align the hardware with ICS

Yep, although if you wait for it to unfreeze, you can then move around momentarily, before it freezes again...so far I can see that it DOES NOT have the face unlock, and other than settings, popup\menus and the Gmail app, which you can notice a difference right away, even without emails in it, it looks pretty much the same being that its TWIZ and not AOSP!

For many many reasons, not least of which was no significant progress towards ICS (which at that point needed CM7 as a prerequisite). Hopefully with the system files maybe someone can drag up that kernel and see if they can be made to work together but I think it is a CM kernel and I'm not sure that could be made to play with this...
Review of this port is up...

The kernel we compiled for that does not work with this. Were going to see if we can get it going though.
If you havn't noticed it yet but the download link is down in the original Virtuous Doubleshot thread I development section. The download link has been down for quite some time now....
Because I have not gotten over 10 post limit I can't ask there but does anyone else know where I can get the rom?
Also, you can give me some comments about the rom If it's worth trying out...
You can google or ask the OP of the doubleshoot in a private message if you can't post in the thread

Thank you so much!
The Doubleshot is my favorite Sense ROM. I just love the launch bar. Unfortunately, it doesn't run so smoothly, it quickly became obvious to me that it was intended for a phone with more RAM. If that wasn't the case I would probably be running it still.
Also, the kernel is not compatible with the swap script so that won't help.
There is a thread in the DHD forums with some visual mods but I believe the download links are dead.

I agree
This *was* my favorite ROM as well, but the lag just got to bad. Would be nice for an update that would allow swap. the supercharger script also didn't help with me as well.

Yeah, the rom is not lag free but i didn't find it exceptional laggy. I've tried manualy add the ultra-smooth rosie to this one which reduced the lag but some times when you go to the landscape mode you can't press any shortcuts or widgets... An update with fixed ultra-smooth rosie would make the rom perfect i think.
As for the theme, the download link is dead as said. Does anybody got a copy that? The maker of that one has lost the files for it and therefore he can't reupload it

if you want stability and no problems. wait for official release. if browsing for a rom is too much work, surely rebooting your phone is also too much. (in before close)

actually i wasn´t able to look in dev forums, due to my lack of messages, and if I don't have the experence i thought it might be helpfull to ask for suggestions
and my lack of messages is only because i was able to view the dev forums before, and i've been flashing roms for a while, and didn't had the need to be asking around
but, thanks anyway...

so this doesn't make any sense ... anyways ... everyone can view dev forums you just can't post in them. Read up on bug list, known issues, what works, and make an educated guess. Flashing a rom isn't serious business, however, that being said if you can't read a change log and test roms out for yourself you probably don't need to be flashing or messing with your phone anyways.
... and on that note..
cool story bro.
I tried all sense 4 roms here, they are all the same and the camera doesnt work....
Its simple, there is no Best rom. This is a development site. Roms made here are not made to be perfect. They are made to learn how to do it and to mess with. If you are not here to learn about development then you are in the wrong place. Oh and you can view the Development threads you just cant replay in them.

Ok so Ive flashed a few roms here and there. Including some of the Cm9 and aokp roms and also some darkside. I found a issue that kept reappearing in every flash, the LED lights at the bottom would not always work properly. They do not light up when you turn the phone on and only light up once unlocked or after 5-6 seconds.. are there any fixes? Ive trying wiping several ways and i always flash according to the OP.
Im now on xtremeperia and I gotta say its the most gorgeous ROM ever. But it still has that problem that will not go away! Ive Pm'd the Dev but they dont have a fix, wondering if anyone else does..
Also heres a question to the Developers. First and foremost I am amazed by the work you guys do! Its great!! Im wondering if one of you guys can design a new camera App, something with a sexier layout! The one found in AOkp and CM9 are just way too boring and makes the phone look cheap as well as the rest of the rom! The stock ones in GB are also a bit boring, wondering if someone can design one that looks like that of what we see on other phones/ as in a better layout. Also a shutter sound that sounds like a real shutter! not the silly nexus ones! lol Not trying to say or offend anyone but im sure lots of folks agree with me on this...
please dont tell me to download a camera app, it feels nice to have a awesome built in camera that is fully functional.
thanks!
First part - AOKP's LED's work perfect for me. Not sure why they at the very least, dont work with CM9.
Second part - Honestly, I doubt any redesigning will take place any time soon... However, you can download other stock apps? Try MIUI's it's nice, and has lots of features. However, it doesn't do video... Stock app for that? - Click here for the camera.

umm.. Isn't a built in camera app an app? Simply put you have to actually install one you download, which takes how long? If you are looking for one that installs with a rom, you could always bake up a rom in the kitchen that installs your 3rd party one of your choice..

Thanks so much for your help. I agree the AOKP july 15 self kang was successful in LED fix.
That miui camera really is nice thanks for the link you are the bomb!
i still cant figure out cm9 but oh well ima just use darkside for now
thanks
So I got my phone about a week ago.. I rooted the phone right away because I wanted root options, but honestly, I didn't feel the need to put a rom on it.
With my GS2, I'll be honest, while I noticed many great things with great roms, there was always 1 things that never worked.. Wifi calling,weak gps signal, gps and bluetooth at the same time..
Whatever it was, there was always something..
While the wicked rom looks great, I'm worried about it, so I think I wanna stay stock (unless someone convinces me otherwise )
So, my "What do I do comment" is this.
After I rooted I downloaded someones .apk file that apparently removes bloatware to the stock phone.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2383951&page=2
14th post.
I'm not sure what was removed, but the bottom line, some things are not working with my phone now.. For example, whenever I try any of the air gestures like air jump/browse/move and so on, they simply don't work anymore, when I go to click try, I get a settings has stopped error.
While I wasn't too worried before, today I went to make a .gif with the camera, and maybe some of you think its cheesy I like that option and feature.. Well, that also gives me an error after I take the 5 second or whatever time, .gif.
I get an error.
So here I am.. wondering what to do, how would I even be able to go back to stock? is it possible ?? Should I man up and go with the wicked rom?? I just feel once you rom that's it, no matter what you're asking for other issues popping up.. While I appreciate all the hard work done by our modders, are they really more talented then the engineers at Samsung?? maybe they are?
You could flash a custom ROM or you could Odin flash a stock tar file to get you back to stock.
Any of the TW base ROM will give you Wi-Fi calling.

I was hoping someone would push me towards a rom
If I went with a rom, lets say I don't like it, could I follow that post ??
and go back to stock as if I never did a thing?
You could. Or you could flash a different rom.

Thanks. I've been posting more times than I can remember, long posts from memory, in response to many in the same situation. Now I'll just post this link
As I always say, but sometime don't practice, K.I.S.S.
thanks all.. Thanks for the link, I just put wicked rom on and so far this rom seems to be trouble free (knocking on wood)
I'll keep this link in mind just "in case"
