So i come from the Optimus V which has the greatest dev community ive had yet to see and there was tons of ROMS, tweaks, etc.
Now I have the T-989 and there arent many ROMS,etc... And those that exist need radios or zips or fixs to be flashed after them...
Are there not that many things for this phone? And do all ROMS need some kind of fix afterwards?
Sent from my SGH-T989 using Tapatalk 2
First, not flashing a radio is no big deal. You keep the one you have currently. Your free to choose a different one if you like. Second what are you looking for, ICS or GB? They are some great ROMS for both
Third, questions belong in [email protected]

Whats the difference of the radios then?
Id prefer ICS, but not too picky. All the ROMS Ive seen have issues.
And lmao yeah, sorry, Im not dumb enough to notice that.
Sent from my SGH-T989 using Tapatalk 2
Different radios may provide better data/signal in your area. You will have to try a few out and see which one works for you. Make sure you are flashing the correct one. Ics radio on ics rooms only. GB radios on GB roms.

Depending where you live, some radios can give you better reception and data speeds. If the one you have works, stick with that one. We only recently gotten ICS source, the devs are still ironing out the bugs. As for GB, Juggernaut and Darkside Digital warfare are the way to go. Those are very stable, established ROMS with few bugs. Find them in the development thread.

Thanks for the radio info. & Darkside and Juggernaut seem like the only real options. But they each have issues, no?
On the OV I switched alot, but I ended up just keeping a backup of Backside and Harmonia. Id switch between the two when ever I want. I couldnt decide between the two. When my OV kicked the bucket i was on Harmonia. Id flash CM9 once in a blue to play too.

Darksides are great, but still based on Samsung TouchWiz. CM9 and AOKP are built from ground up but require a little more knowledge and research to get setup correctly. If you just want it to just work no messing around , go with Darkside for now, if you want to have a true Android rom go with AOKP of CM9(but you really need to know what you are doing and follow their respective threads if using these CM9 or AOKP)
Jugg 5.0 is by far the best GB ROM for t989...but who wants the old ROM...ICS is the only way to fly

Yeah backside was my favorite rom for the OV. I would suggest either CM9 or AOKP. We have official support for both of them. Unfortunately ICS source has only been out about 2 weeks, so both have some bugs. They are quickly getting fixed though. Read through the last few pages of their respective threads to get an idea of what's up.

AOKP and CM9 are both officially supported now that source is out.
I'm not sure what "setup" is involved in them though. They were like setting up any other ROM for me.

I am also not sure how to approach this. There are only a few roms that don't support wimax.. I suggest calkulins. It's my go to rom. I've heard starburst is pretty good too.. But in the future, please try to read a bit. maybe look at the roms that have a lot of view and/or comments. The OP of each thread will tell you just about everything you need to know.
IMO, there is no more stable custom ROM right now then UnNamed. If I wasn't so flash happy, I would stay with that but I'm changing ROMs every 2-3 days now...
But anyway, yeah UnNamed is the best ROM as far as stability is concerned.
Oh and I got over a day of moderate use from it. Don't believe me though, try it out!

+1 for Calkulin's roms. Good battery life, stable, so far I have not encountered any issues.
I've been extremely pleased with Calkulin's ROM. I have tried unnamed (which I also like) but I prefer the 5 icon dock and 5x5 app drawer and undervolt/underclock scripts in Calkulin's.

MJHawaii is right.. UnNamed is a hell of a rom especially with a few tweaks added in. I am quite sure you will not find anyone unhappy with it. Also like mentioned before there is a whole development section of great roms. Just make sure when you try them all you do not restore data and flash all of them cleanly and not on top of each other.
For battery life on this phone may I recommend 200-800 since your phone can clearly handle it...
no offence, but either dont flash and stay on stock or there is always the good ol flip phones!

blazer is my daily driver.
i have not tried a single rom that has just flat out been unstable or unusable though; i steer clear of early/experimental builds, bust most of the roms in the dev section for this phone are pretty complete and comprehensive.
this is my first android device and initially i had trouble just rooting the thing, but thanks to xda's dev section my first flash was a piece of cake and i've had no issues or major complaints in 3 months of jumping rom to rom.
Just an observation. But your avatar shows you have at&t, shouldn't you be in a different section? This forum is for the Samsung epic 4g touch. Maybe thats why the roms aren't working. Unless you just havent updated your profile. (Im guilty of that as well)
Well, with the latest and greatest roms from some very talented and dedicated devs for the Dinc 2, I officially see no reason to reason to use CM7 or MIUI Gingerbread anymore. I was running both of these earlier in the week and in short order found my way back to ICS roms in very short order.
I can't wait till source fixes the few things that are left to fix, but I can live with what I have for now.
Thanks to the Dinc 2 Devs out there!!!

If you want rock solid stability I suggest running blazer 4.1, which is gingerbread. But if ICS is what you want, you could run stock ff18. In addition, all of the custom ROMs based on ff18 should be more or less the same in terms of stability. Choose whichever one you like.

You could give Blu Kuban a try.
Also, give different modems a try but make sure she always updates her PRL & Profile after every modem flash, then give it time to settle in. If that one doesn't get her speeds up, try another using the same method above. Sometimes you have to try the whole lot before you find what works best in your area. Again, update PRL & Profile after every modem flash, don't just give it a few minutes or hours to prove its worth, give it a day or so then flash another if that one doesn't do well.
Whats stable on here for one may not be for another. I use CM9 nightlies with no issues at all. Honestly if you want a rom for someone that does not care about flashing go GB throw a theme on it and let them enjoy life.
Anything else you will find yourself tinkering with it. although I am on the nightly from 6/21 and have not looked back.
I'm a big fan of tFF18. I find it stable and nimble. Easy to work with and good theming.

Same here. I've been following the AOKP builds from when they were first brought here up till now.
CM 9
EDIT: No matter what ICS rom you choose, be VERY careful to read, understand and follow the installation instructions. Otherwise, you're going to end up with a very expensive brick. Also, check your MD5s.
-----------
I've been using CM 9 since v.A5, and I'm quite pleased with it. I can't say I've had stability problems with it, but the setup process can be tricky.
You have to get a GPS lock and update your Profile / PRL either right before upgrading or using their multiboot rom option (which worked perfectly for me).
Also, you need to remember to install the google apps separately, but I believe all AOSP roms have a similar requirement.
However, once you've passed these initial hurdles, the ROM runs great. I have no complaints and use it as my daily driver. I use Maps, 4G, Netflix, a bluetooth keyboard and mouse, and so on. My family teases me that whenever I'm not in front of a computer, I'm in front of my phone, so that should give you some insight on how thoroughly I use it.
Currently I have been using touch of sgsIII rom for about a week with no issues at all it has the voice talk and music player and messaging from the samsung galaxy s III and I am really liking the feel of this rom the only issue is that the sound effects are not working in the music player but I can personally deal with that til they find a fix other than that great work team rejects on this rom and I recommend it to anyone. But like said above one rom can work good for one and not another so give it a try and see how it works out for you.

I have four roms I rotate between, restoring and updating as new releases come out. I have had nothing but great experiences with all these, sans the occasional burp. Once I had them set up the way I like, all have been trouble free. If I had to pick the high points of each I would say Agat's rom is the best all around with great speed and battery life. Venum Ice has an original color scheme and lots of bells and whistles. M'ICS feels very similar to Ice to me but has a Cyan color theme. Blu Kuban is like a different animal in that it has an updater built in that lets you change tons of visual and functional settings.

Well if he want a stable rom with Hotspot hack i recommend getting Phantom Blazer 4.1 Rom. But if he wants ICS roms CM9 will do.

Let's be honest here, there are probably a dozen of these threads out here and I am quite sure a few quite recently. You could get a million different answers since it all really depends on the user themselves. There is so much that goes into deciding whats best for you I never get asking others. I mean opinions are great but personal experience is the best.
If you are just going to do if for every day use then flash the stock FF18, throw a recovery on it and flash the hotspot hack in themes and apps voila! you're done!
Sorry was not trying to flame I understand what you are asking just don't think a dozen people giving you different answers helps you. All the roms in development are great but all come with a little kwirk here or there.

Stability is one aspect, battery life is another. Best suggestion is to read through the threads of the roms that interest you and what style you like and test the battery life on it.
I personally like Wicked 1.5 and have 3 1/2 to 4 hrs on screen time. But that may not be the case for you. Based on what you run, how you run...
Browse away and give 'em a try but take head to flashing responsibly and read, read, read so you don't brick your phone.

There are 2 posts that I know of which are polling people about the roms in use but its all a matter of taste.

Just a few points. I'm not sure what you mean by devs leaving. We have as many now as we ever did. If you're referring to AOKP specifically times_infinity decided he didn't want to work on it anymore. His old builds are still available and very stable and he is still putting out awesome aosp ROMs for this phone. Regarding the alpha status of our aosp based ROM choices I think you're getting hung up on the name. With the innumerable threads I see around here complaining about this or that issue with stock I'd have no problem recomending someone use cm9/cm10/aokp as their daily driver... I've never had a serious issue with any of them. Or if you still don't trust the "alphas" there are some truly great tw based ROMs like goodness and blukuban that definitely deserve a shot. Just my 2 cents.....

With the innumerable threads I see around here complaining about this or that issue with stock I'd have no problem recomending someone use cm9/cm10/aokp as their daily driver... I've never had a serious issue with any of them. Or if you still don't trust the "alphas" there are some truly great tw based ROMs like goodness and blukuban that definitely deserve a shot. Just my 2 cents.....

If the aosp roms are alpha, id call ff18 a prealpha and fh13 a beta lol they have just as many if not more bugs than any of the aosp roms out. Hell even the aokp ports by TCP were more stable than stock seems to be. I flashed an ff18 leak to update my prl and profile, full wipe didn't load anything but TiBu so I could get mobile Odin with the flash kernel instead of having to redownload it and it was FC city as soon as it booted, process.acore, systemui kept FC over and over I ended up flashing the blukuban to do my updates before jumping back to aokp
