Well i flashed ICS on my G300 but wanted to switch back to GB but with this ROM I have no service? How do I get back to GB without losing phone network / service?

Any GB Rom suggestions for Germany?

When you upgraded to ICS you updated the phones baseband (radio firmware) to 2030. This is a different baseband to what is used on GB (109808) so while you are on the 2030 baseband you cannot use any ROMs that are created for the 109808 baseband, which is pretty much all GB ROMs.

If you REALLY want to downgrade back to GB you can forcibly downgrade but this involves zeroing the IMEI number and does have some risk involved.

Edit: A guide on forcibly downgrading can be found here: https://docs.google....QHNo/edit?pli=1

Oh well, if it is that risky I'll just stick with ICS but some people said that GB has better performance on the G300 I think of it like having Windows XP and Windows 7 and XP has better performance because it uses less resources. I have also seen that ICS worked like a very little bit not slower but I don't know how to explain it, anyway, can you give me a a link to Stock Rom for ICS and I'll see what I do.

[Cyda]

From my experience once ICS is setup correctly it runs much better than GB. I wouldn't go back to GB.

If you want stock I would go with b936 or b940 both of these work well. They are both CWM zips so you will need to install CWM if you ahven't already done so.

[Gabriel94]

Hmm, any good modded ROM i mean not stock?

[Cyda]

The best modded ROM at the moment (IMO) is Infusion. There are a few others about also but Infusion is where I would look first.

GTA 3 works so good for him it lags for me, he also said:


Hi, The phone had a custom rom (stock based) and stock kernel,no overclock, no high performance tweaks, just rooted and some bloatware removed. The perfomance "stock rom" vs "those CUSTOM ROM" was the same. The performance would be improved with a good kernel (w OC) +custom rom(w tweaks)

[Gabriel94]

Sorry for double post but I need to find out what version my phone is, i have no idea if its
B888 or anything else, i think it is U8815 whatever that means

currentyl have infusion ics
but i want to downgrade to GB and can someone give me a link to a stock GB ROM?

Is your partitioning code available somewhere?

Hi Paul

How did you achieve the partition swap code wise?

I'm wondering if we can do away with the 2gb partition and incorporate into data?

Thanks

Just a quick thanks for this rom - I got the handset a few weeks ago and this site has been my introduction to rooting and flashing it.

So I've subscribed, partly to say thank you and partly to enjoy the rom kitchen

Baking and installing a rom that excludes the app for my pet hate, Facebook (and of course dropping the Vodafone bloatware) makes it worth every penny! Thank you!

Hi! can someone please tell me if the Gr2 ROM har the volume issue fixed? Is the sound like on a ICS rom or is it still low , like  when i bought my phone from vodafone? thenk you

AnTuTu Benchmark score, Paul's GR2, supercharged, with Holo launcher: 3012. Will post screen if requested.

Amazing, thanks a lot Paul!

3089 here with Go Launcher nothing else no overclock or supercharging

ETA: Cannot attach to WIFI network though since the 'sidegrade' - Tries to connect to existing networks then goes to disconnected/failed, this is on previously working networks, also retried resetting the credentials.

I  may have to go back to stock as I cannot have the phone without WIFI - Do I just perform a full restore via CWM of the backup I performed before applying the prebake?

ETA2: Well completed a CWM restore and that was fine, however WIFI still refuses to attach works on a blackberry and a laptop still just not the G300 (which was perfectly attached before the sidegrade) - Phone can still see networks out there..

ETA3: Hmm, not WIFI in the phone as a colleague has a MIFI connection which I could connect to. Will have to try more tests tomorrow but looks like for some very odd reason I can no longer attach to the work WIFI when I could before changing to this ROM and I still can on a BB and a Laptop?

Any screenshots of this mod or does it simply look like stock but with more options?

[PaulMilbank]

Is there going to be an ICS Modaco ROM? I see bits of info here and there, but not sure if it exists or not.

[Acuci]

im sure its just me being stupid but ive been using this rom for a while and its been great although im trying to take the plunge and go ICS.  Every upgrade i try from my old baseband fails.  Is that because ive got htis rom installed? and if so how do i get back to something that will let me do it?

Thanks
