Anyone tried SIX by R3Ds? I saw it on AFH but all I can find on G+ is about Walleye builds. Loved his ROM on Angler and would gladly run it on Taimen but always like others input on ROMs.

I'm right there with you bruh. Ran this as well on my 6p, and it was pretty much flawless! R3Ds has been making awesome roms for many years. Eclipse was a monster all dark rom back in the Moto X days. Why don't you flash it and let us know?? I'm going to after the April security patch, and when he updates it. C'mon bruh, flash that puppy!! ????
Yep I'd like some feedback on six also, ran it on my 6, fab rom
If I wasn't so uncomfortable with the way this phone is flashed I would have already lol. I think I'll wait till after April is released from Google and R3Ds puts out a build or so more. It was great work on the 6p though, I'm sure it'll be the same here.

Yeah....I couldn't get volte provisioning enabled. Couldn't even make phone calls despite installing carrier services, and doing the *#*#4636#*#* thing. Google camera kept FC on me, the aosp version worked fine. Lots and lots of tweaks for sure though. It's definitely a combo of aosp/Los/stock. It's a wip, but has lots of potential for sure! :good:

Apparently XDA won't let me send you a private message... No idea why. Tried both from the XDA app and from the website on my phone, it's bizarre. Anyway, appreciate you biting the bullet. I'm on Sprint so no volte for me to begin with. Aside from volte did SMS and MMS work? Calls are important but I'll have to test that to confirm for myself.
Also, since I have twrp installed already I should just be able to boot into it, switch to the opposite slot, flash rom and twrp then boot/setup, boot back to twrp and flash magisk, right?

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

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...

The kernel we compiled for that does not work with this. Were going to see if we can get it going though.
Here is the lightest ROM I could build. I did this as a request and a challenge just to see how lite I could make it.
Most everything Note Related (S-Pen), Google Related, Samsung Related, and Verizon related is GONE.
This is a one shot ROM, meaning no add-ons will be made. You use it like it is or you can flash a more main stream ROM like the standard edition of CleanROM.

Downloading now, when you say everything note related, does that mean the s pen no longer works?
Thanks @scrosler for more awesome work.

Btw running the other version of Clean Rom cant wait to try this one. Always end up removing stuff I dont need. This is perfect for my needs. Thank's Scott. I have been a long time lurker I remember your amazing work from the S4 Verizon. Thank you for all you do!

Can you please make flashable zip files with the mj7 mje and the mj3 modems for the n3.
I appreciate it

Have to check it out.
Used to only run the lite editions back in the day <3
Scott is this for MJE? I assume yes but just double checking
Hopefully this thread doesn't get filled with posts about apps that are missing or not working. Please read the op if you are going to flash.

Op: I took out all Note related files, to clarify, that means S-Pen.

You got 2 vipers, are they different? I haven't used viper in a while, where did you get that one? (Haven't kept up with it).
Are all the apps in your screenshot in your build, or are those some user apps too? I only ask because that would save me some time setting one up for a friend (a noob friend who refuses to learn, lol). That looks similar to what he's asking for.

I used to be on Pure Nexus and obviously that hasn't been updated in a long time. I went on two different new ROM's that supposedly have no bugs and I had tons of bugs after following the instructions explicitly.
Is there a custom rom that actually is bug free the widgets work, the screen turns on without lag, and Google Assistant works???
I have tried a few roms, but personally I feel that non other rom has a better battery life and overall smoothness than the stock rom, just root it with Magisk and enjoy.
Loving Resurrection Remix with EXnoshadez Kernel and Xposed Greenify. Great battery life. I've tried Firehound, Benzo, Pixeldust, and Lineage. I'm preferring RR then Lineage as a close second.

I'm using Firehound and I find it solid and has all the extras I need. I was thinking of trying RR, but there seems to be a lot of bugs mentioned on the XDA thread.
Been using RR for a few days and doesn't have any major issues at all. Everything's been working fine.

RR has INSANE battery life, barely drains even if there are 3 audio mods installed, I would suggest using that. There is only one bug that is going to be fixed
Anything wrong with stock in particular? The monthly updates are prompt and basically effortless without needing to flash vendors or wait for the ROM developer to update. If you're not on stock (nonroot, locked BL), you run the risk of one day not being able to use apps that utilitize SafetyNet in case you use financial apps. Magisk has worked well in providing ways to circumvent it in a timely manner, but it is not guaranteed to always be able to bypass every update to SafetyNet, which the developer has mentioned.
ROMs aren't going to change the chipset magically to a newer one and increase performance substantially or add mAhs of battery to double the battery life. Android has matured since the days of using ChevyNo1 or P3Droid kernels on Sholes.
This is the conversation I am seeking. I am not going to say what ones I have used but Maps, widgets, WiFi calling, black screen when turning on. I want to avoid those situations.

I'm using Firehound and I find it solid and has all the extras I need. I was thinking of trying RR, but there seems to be a lot of bugs mentioned on the XDA thread.

I just decided to try all the publicly released ROMs. I was on Firehound before i switched to RR. I still have my TWRP backup of it. RR just hasn't given me a reason to go back.

IDK man, I see all that troubleshooting you're going through trying to get the device to run normally through the Pixel section. Is it really worth all that just to be able to change some cosmetics?
Stock will give you zero issues and save you the headache of what you're going through. Wouldn't it be nice to never have to worry about plugging into a computer to update, formatting or data, or spend so much time trying to get a device working? While at the same time, you get the updates as soon as they are available.

I used to be on Pure Nexus and obviously that hasn't been updated in a long time. I went on two different new ROM's that supposedly have no bugs and I had tons of bugs after following the instructions explicitly.
Is there a custom rom that actually is bug free the widgets work, the screen turns on without lag, and Google Assistant works???

I wish mods would get rid of this guy. All of your "questions" are absurd and its annoying to see your profile pic spammed throughout all the threads.

OK folks. I want to apologize for my flooding of the forums attempting to repair my situation last week. Yes, I have been flashing for a long time without real complications. I haven't been on my ADHD meds for a while and that did not help me with the drama last week. Unfortunately my world like most of you is in my phone, I was panicked. Sorry about that.
Needless to say I needed other eyes on what I was doing for perspective sake. I went to my PC tech, luckily had personal flashing experiences with Android, Pixel even. We worked on it for about 6 hours in total. He couldn't get RR to work.
The issue was this after following the OP instructions. Once in the system I couldn't get the WiFi to connect with the phone, not being able to download whatever the phone was looking for. Google play services kept FC'ing. Google TTS kept FC'ing as well. I don't know if there is a fix or a forthcoming fix for this abnormal issue. I deleted data from the apps that were FC'ing and other Google that might be related. PS: not a RR issue I had this same issue with Benzo)
Unfortunately, we didn't save anything from the old RR setup because I couldn't be without a phone for another day. Any constructive thoughts would be welcomed.
I shall attempt to reinstall RR at some point to see if it works, or to get data to help the devs understand what might have happened or might had happened.
I am back on stock, not loving it that is for sure.
