[SGS2 i9100P-ICS] Looking for JB ROMs

SohaibTheGame · May 16th, 2013, 01:27 PM

Hello, i own a rooted Samsung Galaxy S II i9100P, i've rooted it a year ago to unlock my Sim card, now i'm pretty bored from the ICS & i don't have enough money to get an S3/S4.

So i decided to get a nice JB ROMs(i loved that multi-window feature!)

I think i'm gonna download the Rainbox ROM

Can you please link a full guide on how to install a ROM with all the required tools to me?(i rooted it a year ago and i don't remember anything about it)

If you can also tell me more about Rainbox ROM(your oppinion), i'll appreciate it.

Please, provide me with any information you might think i should know it.

Thank you for reading, i'm looking forward for your replies(i'm gonna keep googling in the meantime)

Hello, I think pretty much all ROMs that you will download from XDA website will have instructions how to do it. Some may vary slightly but the main gist of it usually is...
1. Make a Nandroid backup and Titanium backup (Titanium only really for the apps but the Nandroid is important incase things go south)
2. Copy ROM file to SD
3. Boot into recovery (either using ROM Manager / CWM and selecting boot in recovery) or turn off & on holding down home and vol + and power until recovery comes up. When in recovery use vol +/- to navigate and power to select.
4. Wipe Cache (& Dalvic cache) etc
5. Install Zip from SD (select your ROM downloaded)
6. Reboot
But like I say they will almost certainty have a how to guide on the Forum.

I think I have used Rainbox before now but I get bored quite easily and am a bit of a flashing addict and have used many, many ROMs in the last year or so. Unfortunately I can't give you any specifics that I found with it but to be fair I think all the JB ROMs I have used have all been very good.
Yesterday I flashed Allience ROM v8.0 (Allience ROMs seem to be pretty good and stable) which seems very good and has the multi-window that you want but is also VERY customisable which I am loving. You can change colours of clocks, toggles backgrounds to settings etc. It may be worth looking at that. The only issue I have found with it so far (which I am about to post a question about), is I think the Kernel that comes with it is pretty laggy in my opinion but I am trying to flash a new kernel (and having problems). Have a look for my post and see how I get on.
